status. Kimberly F. Balsam
and Theodore P. Beauchaine of the University of Washington, Esther
D. Rothblum of San Diego State University and Sondra E.
Solomon of the University of Vermont followed-up on a 2002
project that focused on legalized relationships of same-sex couples

Queerty: We all know that
marriage remains one of the world's most divisive political issues.
Christian and conservative activists are always griping that the "blessed
union" should be between a man and a woman. Because, you know, God wanted it
that way so we could have babies and the such. Author Susan Squire's
new book, I Don't: A Contrarian History Of
Marriage, undercuts such right-wing arguments.

Steve Rothaus: According to a recent national
survey, seven out of ten heterosexual adults (71%) agree that how an
employee performs at their job should be the standard for judging an

Gables. When the
death of his beloved mother shattered the home of six-year-old Don McNeal, it could have
destroyed his family. Instead, a stern but loving father united his ten children
into a cohesive team no one could separate. In Home Team Advantage: From the Fields of Rural
Alabama to the Pro Football Field of the Miami Dolphins (Power,
$14.95), McNeal conveys his father's simple but valuable rules of teamwork that
helped prepare him for very different careers in professional football and
church ministry. These are honest, no-nonsense guidelines anyone can use to
become an effective member of a family, team or any organization. Along the way,
McNeal shares humorous and touching stories ranging from the barnyard to the
football field and beyond. 6:30pm.
