AT A GLANCE Plus Realistic, dynamic sound Outstanding build quality Carries on the fine M&K tradition Minus Expensive
THE VERDICT M&K's system is perfect for the movie lover and extremely capable for the discerning audiophile.
It was in February 2000 when I was in a hi-fi store looking at some new electronics and stumbled upon a salesman giving a speaker demonstration to a married couple. I decided to listen in to see if anything piqued my interest. The salesman went through a number of different speakers, and I didn't hear anything remarkable until his last demo: M&K Sound S150s coupled with an MK350 subwoofer. I don't recall the exact track he played, but my jaw dropped when I heard the sound emanating from the speakers. It was as if the entire wall came alive, and I couldn't pinpoint which speakers were active. Much like the wand picking the wizard in Harry Potter, these speakers picked me, and I knew I'd have to own them.
Sadly, it took me three years to convince She Who Must Not Be Crossed to give her blessing, but I've been in audio bliss for over 10 years now with a trio of S150s across the front soundstage and four SS150s across the rear of my home theater.
AT A GLANCE Plus Outstanding audio and video performance Loaded with streaming options Unique screen mirroring with Samsung smartphones and tablets Minus Suspect build quality Controls are on top of the player, limiting placement options
THE VERDICT A good budget player that makes up in performance and features what it lacks in build quality.
Last week I was playing poker with a bunch of guys and our topic of conversation turned to home theater. I was asked what I was currently reviewing, and when I mentioned the Samsung BD-H6500 Blu-ray player, one of my friends was shocked. "They're still selling Blu-ray players! Why?" Needless to say, I was shocked, too. When I asked the table of nine other guys, only two said they had watched a Blu-ray movie in the past three months; the rest were getting their movies from PPV (pay per view) or streaming them from Netflix, Vudu, or Amazon VOD.
AT A GLANCE Plus Room-friendly form factor (SB-2000) Outstanding build quality 45-day in-home trial period Minus No built-in parametric equalizer Best for moderately sized rooms
THE VERDICT For rooms smaller than 3,000 cubic feet, you'll be hard-pressed to find a better bass value than what either of these subwoofers offers.
I've loved movies since I was a kid and have been interested in home theater for more than 20 years now. There are many reasons I prefer watching movies at home versus the local cinema: There's no texting or talking, for example, and I can pause the movie if I need a potty break. But the biggest reason I love watching at home is the sound. Don't get me wrong. It's not that the local theater sounds bad; it's just that my home theater sounds better overall, especially when it comes to bass.
AT A GLANCE Plus Powerful, deep, and taut bass response Outstanding build quality Sealed push-pull design Minus No built-in parametric equalizer Pricey
THE VERDICT M&K Sound calls the X12 the subwoofer, and I can't disagree with them. This is one of the best subwoofers I've ever heard in my room.
M&K Sound got started when Walter Becker of Steely Dan commissioned Ken Kreisel to design a studio reference subwoofer and monitoring system for the Pretzel Logic mixing sessions. Partnering with a high-end audio dealer, Jonas Miller, Kreisel developed a revolutionary subwoofer that led to the creation of M&K. As time passed, word of mouth spread throughout the music and movie industries, and M&K would go on to create systems for leading studios and in-home installations for producers, actors, and recording artists.

I'm a busy guy. By busy, I mean I'm an Assistant Manager at a Major
Retail Store (at a young age). I do work long days, but that's OK!
It is what I love to do. I'm a very social guy, after all, I have
to be because of my career. I have one day off in the week and it's
the same day every week and work every other weekends. On my free
time I like to stay active by exercising, running errands, shop or
whatever I can think of. I'm thinking about getting a cat, I love
animals but wouldn't be able to care for a puppy even though that's
what I truly want.
I know where I'm going its just whether I have to do it alone or not.

How to incorporate literacy into the Block Center
Incorporating Literacy in the Block Center
The Block Center is where the preschoolers learn basic mathematical skills and concepts. The children learn about shapes and sizes as they are building. The Block Center is also a great area to incorporate literacy. Grasping, stacking, and carrying blocks helps children to develop eye/hand coordination. You can incorporate literacy into your Block Center by adding a variety of literacy props:
· Literacy Writing Materials to include:
o Pencils, crayons, markers, placed in small baskets.
o Paper of all shapes, sizes and colors: lined, unlined, graph, post it, notecards and rolls of adding machine paper.
o Clipboard with pencils and paper for children to draw their own blueprint.
o House plans and actual blueprints of houses or buildings. Magazines for children to look at the pictures, giving them ideas on what they would like to design.
o A great activity in the Block Area would be for the child to design their own house, make a blue print and build it from their plan.
Books about construction, building roads, machinery, trucks, should be placed in the center for the children to look at. Books can give the children ideas about what to build, beautiful pictures of trucks, tractors, and other different machinery.
· Great books to enhance your Block Area:
o How A House is Built by Gail Gibbons
o Building a House by Byron Barton
o C is For Construction: Big Trucks and Diggers From A to Z by Caterpillar
o The Construction Alphabet Book by Jerry Pallotta
o Tonka Construction Zone by Charles Hofer
o B is for Bulldozer: A Construction ABC by June Sobel
o Digger Man by Andrea Zimmerman
o Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel by V. Burton

The latest addition to our Reviews Section is a piece by Erica Mena on Anja Utler's engulf—enkindle, which is translated by Kurt Beals and came out in December from the admirable Burning Deck.
The best source for info on German poet Anja Utler seems to be this site (which, for those of you into poetry of the experimental flavor, looks pretty awesome on the whole), which has this to say:
Her first volume of poetry, asfsagen, was published in 1999, followed by münden – entzügeln (engulf – enkindle) in 2004. The year before, she received her doctorate for her thesis on women Russian modernist poets.
That same year she was awarded the Leonce-und-Lena-Preis, an award devoted to outstanding younger poets. That award jury described her poetry as "sensual sound constructions, on paper as in recitation, without being pure sound-poetry. Rather, they are language games of psychological world perception, that out of the substance of their words create shafts of illumination through which our curiosity, but also our bafflement in the exploration of language, feel their way."
Erica Mena is a member of the Best Translated Book Award poetry committee (quick interjection: engulf—enkindle isn't eligible for this year's award, but come BTBA 2012 . . . ), who is also a poet, translator, and noted screeder.
But today, Erica is gushing rather than screeding . . . Based on the first paragraph alone, I think Erica kinda sorta likes this collection . . . (And be sure to scroll to the bottom to hear a recording Erica did of one of the poems):
engulf — enkindle is a stunning book of poetry. It literally stunned me into absolute submission; it is the book of poetry I'd been wanting to read for years. It's a small volume, and I read it in one sitting, faster than I normally read poetry, because I couldn't slow down. The language sunk its hooks into me and pulled me through the book, like rafting down rapids. If some of this sounds violent, that's no mistake – the book is full of sensual violence, done to the body of language and the body in the poem.
want now: you – drive into me
want to push to the edge, hang, you
haul all my: shale, scrape
it off from: the head, from the shoulders
to rootstock throat gravel: you split me
give me – as if severed – sharp
countours – fangs wolffian ridge
questions too – will i? –
i – take you to me
balances I

The stacatto lines, broken by strange punctuation, expose themselves as duplicitious; the punctuation is superfluous, and yet it's not. It's a violation of the line, of the rules of grammar, but it forces a rhythm on the almost unwilling reader. It's pleasurable and distressing simultaneously, mimetic of the poems. The I in the poem submits to the violence of the you, while exerting her own controlled violence over the reader, and the poem and ultimately her poetic body.
Like most "experimental" texts this work demands more of its reader, a different set of tools and strategies. It is a text that has been splayed wide open, disgorging multiple readings. This extract from the second poem could be read as describing what the poetry itself is doing:
– percieve: just at the opencuts: set free
furrow – to stand, sense, to drift now am: pitching to you
through the: fissures [. . .]
[The bracketed ellipsis is mine.] Pay attention to the slippery shifts of meaning across and through the punctuation, the way caesura is inserted into the lines and creates tension with the phrases that follow the colons. Feel the tension that is created by the speeding up and slowing down of the lines, the gaps in meaning and thwarted grammatical expectations (the missing subject for "am" for example).
This is poetry that demands several readings, at least one of which must be aloud. When I teach poetry, I always ask that the students read the poems out loud, as well as to themselves, and if I suspect they have not done it we do it together. Great poetry creates sonic space on the page, and visual space in the voice, and the movement between these opens up new meanings. Traditionally, this happens behind the semantic content of the poem, but Beals's rendering of Utler's poetry prioritizes its lyric qualities. In engulf – enkindle, the poems hinge on sound and silence, on rhythm and breaking, with meaning following. Try listening to this without reading along, and see what kind of difference it makes.1
finally, startled from sleep, find:
the larynx deseeded is
hollowed: hands palpate,
it: fumbling, feathered, from
ribcage entwine themselves
deeper into the: reed swallow: light,
gurgling, darkly well, dimly
they: keel towards hulls towards hollows
weave: cavities, gorges of
stalks of fingers of (..)
so to speak: towards the bittern – neting place,
in the singing reed so it's called – grow
entangled as – flotsam and jetsam – stitched
up to the: glottis rustling
almost trembling i hear you again: say
song you say song – what is: song
Kurt Beals is a genius. I can't imagine how these translations could have come to be otherwise. He may have been working at an advantage; Germanic languages share many rhythm and sound paterns, two of the most impressive features of this translation. Still, the strangeness of these poems, which demand so much of the reader, must have demaned even more of Beals. To create this kind of complexity in translation is nothing short of stunning, an acheivment compounded by the shifting registers and pacing of the language.
This is an uncompromising work of brilliance on both Utler and Beals' parts. It's sharp and sexy, challenging and riviting and absolutely relentless. This is the poetry I've been waiting my whole life for.
1 Here's a recording Erica made of "Utler IX":
The last five days of the eleventh-century Icelandic politician, writer of sagas, and famous murder victim Snorri Sturleleson (the Norwegian spelling, Snorre, is preserved in the book) make up Thorvald Steen's most recently translated historical fiction, The Little Horse. Murdered. . .
We all know Paris, or at least we think we know it. The Eiffel Tower. The Latin Quarter. The Champs-Élysées. The touristy stuff. In Dominique Fabre's novel, Guys Like Me, we're shown a different side of Paris: a gray, decaying. . .
One hundred pages into Birth of a Bridge, the prize-winning novel from French writer Maylis de Kerangal, the narrator describes how starting in November, birds come to nest in the wetlands of the fictional city of Coca, California, for three. . .
At 30, the Mexican writer Valeria Luiselli is already gathering her rosebuds. Faces in the Crowd, her poised debut novel, was published by Coffee House Press, along with her Brodsky-infused essay collection, Sidewalks. The essays stand as a theoretical map. . .
Fantomas Versus the Multinational Vampires: An Attainable Utopia (narrated by Julio Cortázar) is, not disappointingly, as wild a book as its title suggests. It is a half-novella half-graphic novel story about . . . what, exactly? A European tribunal, Latin. . .
Marie NDiaye has created a tiny, psychological masterpiece with her Self-Portrait in Green. In it she explores how our private fears and insecurities can distort what we believe to be real and can cause us to sabotage our intimate relationships.. . .
Reading a genre book—whether fantasy, science fiction, crime, thriller, etc.—which begins to seem excessively, stereotypically bad, I have to make sure to ask myself: is this parodying the flaws of the genre? Usually, this questioning takes its time coming. In. . .

Now it's up to Dak, Sera, and teenage Hystorian-in-training Riq to travel back in time to fix the Great Breaks . . . and to save Dak's missing parents while they're at it. First stop: Spain, 1492, where a sailor named Christopher Columbus is about to be thrown overboard in a deadly mutiny!

" Yes, the team should be given time to gel together. "
" Players should be selected based on the given conditions. "
Tania Dey: I think it is very important to keep the current team gelled very well. It will lead to further cohesiveness and ensure better results in the future. Team equation can only be built over time and the current team should be given the space to form a full-fledged unit.
Dhiraj Salian: We shouldn't get complacent with a particular playing 11. On one hand I am extremely proud that they have won, but on the other hand, playing conditions change from place to place. Some players may excel in one ground and some players in the other. The team should be open to changes so that best results are delivered at any given conditions.

The current team, is doing really well, n to keep them in the current form which is gr8, the team needs to be the same so that they remain together n keep doing well
09 Jul 2013
not to worry India is in form.. India will win this series.. kohli hai to :)
09 Jul 2013
You wouldn't want to ruin the balance in the side!May cause long term problems..
30 Jun 2013
With the Indian team who performed amazingly in the Champions Trophy, qualifying for the finals AND winning, changes to the team is just not a question or an answer. The team is doing well at the moment so it is better to leave it as it is without putting pressure on them. Concluding no changes are needed.
30 Jun 2013
No changes required. This is the time to build the team to its potential for the 2015 world cup..
29 Jun 2013
India is doing extremely well and if somes changes occur it may increase pressure on the team so no changes are needed
29 Jun 2013
With the Indian team performing brilliantly in the ongoing Champions Trophy where they have qualified for the semi-finals with an all-win record in the group league stages, any changes in the current team was simply out of question.

Some of the other RCBian should also be be picked to Indian team by BCCI selectors
10 Jul 2013
They already changed the team. They should have replaced injured MS with Yuvraj. Instead they went for Rayudu, who hasnt really performed last couple of months. Such changes are not required..
06 Jul 2013
Don't know why but I fell Cheteshowr should have been picked to replace injured MS
04 Jul 2013
Akash-raj Vijay is suitable in hot condition so i think if he will come in the playing squad then itself team get balanced
02 Jul 2013
I am very happy with the performance of the side we took to the CT. Still, a successful team is not a team with merely one strong XI. We should use the CT squad as our core, but shuffle about here and there based on the conditions as to press our advantage. This can also help season the players in case a substitution in the regular XI is needed.
30 Jun 2013
No Viney Kumar should be given chance and as the squad is unchanged i think Murali Vijay is likely to play in West Indies

From Inspiration to Reality
Christy Lee Dugan Custom Jewelers Inspiration Board Public Image Photography Sweet Sophistications
Artful Beginnings Megan Chapin Calligraphy Paper Moss Studio 539 Flowers Untamed Petals Wedding Belle NYC
Tyrone Farm
Garden Venue
If you're dreaming of a garden inspired wedding filled to the brim with sweet, girly details that will make your guests swoon…today is your very lucky day. The New England team of vendors headed up by Paper Moss and Megan Chapin Calligraphy, with photography by Public Image Photography and florals by Studio 539 Flowers, designed a Garden inspired shoot that will make your heart go pitter patter. Seriously. It's so stinking pretty, I kind of want to steal every last detail for my wedding re-do. My favorite part, aside from the insanely gorgeous invitation suite that Paper Moss crafted? The milk and cookies. I kind of think every wedding should have milk and cookie favors. To see TONS of additional details, click right here.
click right here to see so many more details!
From Paper Moss…It has been quite the adventure bringing this fabulous inspiration board to life and we are thrilled to share it with all of you! Our photo shoot's theme, 'Vintage Country Chic', is a timeless juxtaposition of historical inspiration, elements of nature and a hint of sophistication. After sharing our vision with a power team of New England based wedding professionals, we set them loose to use their expertise and our vision came right into place.
We aimed to create a whimsical and romantic ambiance which was a perfect match for our jeweler and florist. We worked together to combine intricate details such as varying textures, bringing together antiques and sprinkling items that reflect the bride and groom throughout the scene. Our venue of choice was an old farmhouse in Connecticut that effortlessly enhanced all aspects of our shoot. (I mean, who wouldn't like a dresser or wedding cake in the middle of a field, right?) We fell in love with the wedding gown and its hints of vintage decor, beautifully paired with chandelier earrings. And the bridal bouquet? We think it speaks for itself.
And of course… the stationery. Keeping in mind that the invitations set the tone of the wedding itself, we wanted these to be unique to the Vintage Country Chic concept. The monogram key logo was partially inspired by a quote by Frederick Saunders that we recently heard at a wedding:
"My heart to you is given:
Oh, do give yours to me;
We'll lock them up together,
And throw away the key."
Those words have stuck with us in the months since and while scavenging through antique markets upon a box of old fashioned keys, well… that sealed the deal! Paper Moss is always up for thinking outside the box, but in this case, we started with the box and worked around that. Invitations and coordinating handkerchiefs were printed on linen, while all other letter pressed enclosures tucked sweetly in a custom monogrammed muslin bag that encompassed the natural, country look we were aiming for. Sprigs of lavender and rosemary were placed throughout the wedding, and we wanted there to be a presence of that in the invites. Filling the boxes with lavender buds, we rolled the linen invitation and tied it with bakers twine, topping it off with vintage stamps and contrasting white calligraphy. (Who said you had to be a traditional bride to like calligraphy?) From writing on window panes to tags, it is the perfect final touch.
The planning and execution of this SMP opportunity was more fun than we could have imagined.
A HUGE and hearty SMP thank you to all of the vendors who participated in this shoot…

Hard work, perseverance and hope inspired a group of Mexican-American parents from Chicago's Pilsen neighborhood in April 1969 to create Esperanza Community Services. These parents could not find appropriate educational programs for their children with developmental disabilities, so they started their own. One of the parents, Guadelupe Reyes, and Professor – more... Earl Ogletree, an associate with the Waldorf School movement, combined their efforts to create this special school called Esperanza, which means "hope" in Spanish.
Their hopes and hard work were rewarded. The school, which has grown into a comprehensive social-service agency, has flourished. In 1974, it moved to the West Town community where it grew to serve families from the Near West Side, East and West Garfield, North Lawndale and Humboldt Park. Today Esperanza's five programs serve individuals from birth to adulthood who have mild to profound developmental disabilities, emotional disturbances, behavior disorders, autism and other forms of mental retardation.
Esperanza has grown to serve over 700 racially and culturally diverse participants and families. It employs more than 80 dedicated employees including professionals with master's degrees in non-profit administration, education, nursing, social work and a full spectrum of therapies including speech, occupational and physical therapy.
Esperanza,friends and visitors agree,is a remarkable and loving place. Its growth and success have more than rewarded those whose hopes, hard work and dedication inspired its creation. We invite you to visit us and see for yourself.
Esperanza is accredited by the Rehabilitation Accreditation Commission (CARF); is a member of United Way; is licensed and funded through the Illinois Department of Human Services; and is accredited by the North Central Association of Schools. – less – More from ZoomInfo »

Houston Texans running back Steve Slaton, the Levittown-raised Conwell-Egan grad who set all kinds of records at West Virginia, married longtime girlfriend Kimberly Sierra, also a Levittowner, at the Bellevue Saturday night.
Their two sons -- Julian, 4, and Brennan, 2 -- were ring-bearers.
Former Eagles linebacker Reggie Wilkes was a guest. Wedding planner Gina Sole turned the ballroom into a vintage vibe with dusty blues and gold/silver, augmented by flowers by Hana & Posy of Old City. Afterparty was at Alfa on Walnut Street.

Matt Levin, chef-owner of Adsum in Queen Village and creator of a Four Loko meal recently, decided to mix sweet, salty, bitter, and sour, and came up with the TastySlider -- plump burgers tucked between "buns" made of Peanut Butter Kandy Kakes. He said it's also his small way to help the financially troubled Tasty Baking Co.
He said his attempt to put hot dogs on buns made of Jelly Krimpets failed.
I put the sliders out for a field test last night at the restaurant's bar.

Raw-foods lovers, vegans, and juice fans will have a destination this spring at 111 S. 12th St. in the White Building space that was Blue Lotus, a rug company. JAR BAR -- that's J-A-R, as in "juicy and raw" has the backing of raw chef Joel Scott Odhner (who worked for Dr. Oz) and partner Jennifer Richmond, who plan to offer blended drinks based on green kale, apple, and cucumber, to which "super foods" are added. The menu also will include raw foods, such as lasagna, collard wraps, and even raw desserts. For the last two years, they've been selling a juice cleanse called Catalyst. (Hence the confusion in PhillyChitChat.com's post on the project Thursday.) Richmond says the White Building will host its production kitchen, now in Huntingdon Valley. Target opening is May 1.
Friday (2/11) is Ben McNamara's last day at St. Stephens Green at 17th and Green Streets, as he's yielding the stove to David Shuman, his sous chef of three years. McNamara says the parting was amicable, Sounds like cost-cutting.

did he not say 110 basis pt increase in margin per quarter?
Sentiment: Strong Buy
His comments regarding margins were the most important part... only he didn't say they were increasing. And this is what people spouting about how good the numbers were don't seem to get. Yeah, the numbers weren't bad against expectations. However, the QoQ numbers are contracting on the majority of products, along with the margins. Some segments are relatively limited (PC), saturated by Apple themselves (iPod), or facing renewed competition (iPhone). It's not about what the numbers WERE, but what they WILL be going forward. In other words, concerns that Apple is becoming a value stock instead of a growth stock.
No it wasn't.... his mae answer as to whether AAPL was gonna produce a larger screen iPhone
you should leave the stock buying to the adults...or take the iphone away from your ears.....this pos is done...sell now...buy rim
Sentiment: Strong Sell
lol AAPL stockholders are a delusional bunch. MARGINS ARE DOWN. Guidance is for margin pressure to continue next quarter.
no knucklhead...margins are eroding...why do you think this pos is sinking?
read the call, damn you are right 110 down sequentially

The title pretty much says it. Many people don't know what it's like to be lonely because they've always had someone there for them, but for those like me who haven't always had someone loneliness can sometimes be a big issue.
I don't have alot of friends, I am not old enough to drive yet, I am homeschooled, and my boyfriend is away at college currently. I still get to talk to him but I don't get to see him much, I don't intend on breaking up with him either. We've been together for a year and 10 months, I am extremely happy with him and we've collected so many good memories together that there would be no way I would end it over distance, distance isn't really the problem and won't ever be the problem because he will be coming home every summer when school is out. The plain simple fact is...I am lonely.
I've never had anyone besides my mother who has always been there for me when I need them. Not alot of people want to deal with me because I can be such a negative person alot of the time, so people give up. Well I finally found someone and then they leave and go off to college, it's just really hard on me not having that person to fall back on and turn to. It's hard not having kisses and hugs and being held when I cry. Yes, I know life in general is hard, but some of us out there, like me, don't know how to deal with it properly. I personally barely know how to deal with it at all.
Does anyone know any good ways of dealing with loneliness? What do you do to deal with loneliness?

New Riddick image is dark and rainy with a sad Vin DieselAlthough Riddick has been gone for awhile, I know the return of the franchise later this September is going to be great. Something about Diesel's gravely, emotionless delivery works extremely well with the stoic badassness that Riddick embodies. However, none of that is in this new image. Riddick is most likely pondering some great quandry, but he just looks so SAD. Really, really sad. Linkin Park sad. The rain doessn't necesssarily help matters either. You can peep the whole image down in the gallery. [via ComicBook Movie] Comments not appearing? Anti-virus apps like Avast or some browser extensions can cause this.

Let me begin with a few words of caution for women in their thirties and younger: if you think sexual equality is a nonissue, a relic from your mother's or grandmother's bra-burning past, a subject that's so yesterday, think again. The debate over it is back in a new and particularly insidious form, and I need to warn you about it. Please don't groan and say, "Sexual equality? She must be an alarmist." I know what I'm talking about.
You see, this isn't about whether women can succeed in the workplace. That's a given. It's about whether our success has cost us; about whether the fact that we're running companies and winning Senate seats and performing delicate brain surgeries has made us vulnerable to men who will glom onto us for our bucks, not our boobs.
I'll be specific. I was a thirty-four-year-old woman in the once-male-dominated field of financial planning, pulling in a high six figures as a vice president at the Manhattan-based investment firm of Pierce, Shelley and Steinberg. I was well regarded and well compensated, because I was good at helping my already wealthy clients become more wealthy. The sexual equality thing never crossed my mind.
But then something snapped me out of my complacence. I began to notice that with women grabbing more and more of the big-ticket jobs, men were being relegated to the so-called pinkcollar ones. Suddenly, women were the doctors, the lawyers, and the college presidents, and men were the nurses, the paralegals, and the librarians. We were undergoing a seismic shift in our culture, and I realized there had to be a consequence.
Well, there has been a consequence. Men, discouraged byour growing dominance, are starting to shrug their shoulders and drop out of the workforce altogether, leaving it to us to support them. Take a look around if you don't believe me. Ask your friends. It's happening, and it's throwing off the balance, impacting both the way we hook up and the way we break up.
This still isn't hitting home for you? To be honest, it didn't hit home for me until it hit my home.
In the early years of my thirteen-year marriage, my exhusband was the breadwinner. Then his career ended abruptly, and I became the breadwinner. At first I wasn't concerned about our change in roles. A study had just been released reporting that wives were outearning their spouses in over a third of households, so I knew I wasn't the only woman bringing home 3 the bacon. I accepted the fact that if you're the partner who's up, you should assume responsibility for the partner who's down, no matter which gender you are.
But then my ex-husband's bout with unemployment became chronic, which is to say that he didn't lift a finger to find himself a new career. The marriage unraveled. We couldn't handle the role changes after all. But as distressing as that was, the divorce was worse. Why? Because I got stuck assuming responsibility for the partner who was down, ev en though we were no longer partners!
I was forced not only to hand over a huge chunk of my assets to my ex but to pay him alimony too. "Maintenance" they call it in New York state. Whatever. We're talking about me having to write checks to the guy every month for eight years. I was a good and generous person who gave to numerous charities and never cheated anybody out of anything. But this? Well, I balked, to put it mildly.
Maybe you're thinking that if we're the big achievers now, we should stop whining and just fork over the cash in the divorce. But here's the thing: when it's your turn, you won't want to fork over the cash any more than men did when they were hogging the power seat.
Did I go to extremes in my effort to wriggle out of my legal obligation to my ex? Sure. Do I regret what I did to him? Deeply. But I was caught up in that nutty fantasy about men—that even as we're out there conquering the world, they're supposed to be the strong ones, capable of rescuing us, or, at the very least, providing for us.
It's all so confusing, isn't it? Well, maybe this little story of mine will help sort things out.
Or maybe it'll simply confirm that equality, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholden.
Sign here," said my d iv orce a ttorney, Robin Baylor, a fortysomething black woman with impeccable credentials. Harvard for her undergraduate degree. Yale for law school. Louis Licari for the auburn highlights that were expertly woven through her short, spiky hair. The two of us were sitting in her elegantly appointed, wood-paneled conference room at a table the length of a city block. She had just passed me the gazillionth document pertaining to Melanie Banks (me) vs. Dan Swain (my ex). "It's the last one," she announced.
"Promise?" I said with pleading eyes as I glanced at the huge file she had on Dan and me. So much paper. Such a waste of trees.
"Trust me, yours wasn't as complicated as some," she said, and she wasn't kidding. She'd handled my friend Karen's divorce, which became a truly unsavory affair after it was revealed that Karen's ex was not only an insider trader with the SEC breathing down his neck but also a bigamist with two families on opposite coasts. "You've waited out the year of legal separation, and now you're just signing the conversion documents. Once these are filed, you're divorced. Case closed."
"Closed?" I said. "I wish. Thanks to this settlement, I'm tied to Dan for seven more years.Having to pay him while we were separated was no picnic, but having to write him checks for the next . . . Well, the whole thing makes me sick." An Ex to Grind. Copyright © by Jane Heller. Reprinted by permission of HarperCollins Publishers, Inc. All rights reserved. Available now wherever books are sold.

Every book Jane Heller writes I read. Her style of writing is fun, interesting, and truly entertaining. This book is all of these things and more. You will really enjoy these characters. Even Buster the dog is entertaining! Jane Heller's novels are just delightful! I'm looking forward to the next novel by Jane.
Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.In Manhattan financial planner Melanie Banks and football hero Dan Swain seemed like the model married couple until he blew out his knee ending his sports career. Dan becomes a sponge living off his wife¿s income, but doing nothing with his life. Disappointed and disgusted with her 'bumbo' husband, Melanie divorces Dan, but New York forces her to provide him with alimony and joint custody of Buster the dog................ Melanie detests paying this slacker any money so she hires matchmaker Desiree Klein Heart Hunting to find Dan a woman to live with for ninety days, which will end her payments to him. Instead Buster introduces Dan to his veterinarian, they fall in love and he now has a cause to better himself and get past the self pity. However, Machiavellian Melanie sees in the new Dan the old Dan that she loved and married; she wants him back so she revises her plan not caring who is hurt in the process even Evan who offers kibble to Buster as a way to Melanie¿s heart.................. Though Melanie rationalizes why she throws ethics out the window, fans will not feel empathy towards the wicked witch of the east. On the other hand, the transformation of Dan from superstar to super slacker to superman seems real as Melanie gives no support emotionally when he most needs her while his new love encourages him to get back in the playing field as a coach. Fans of Jane Heller will see her trademark humor underlying the serious plot, but the star Melanie fumbles the ball as she is too callous about others for the audience to care about her.................
