Not even a successful petition drive can tear asunder the Maryland high court's decision requiring the state to recognize as valid the marriages of same-sex couples who lawfully wed in other states. The Court of Appeals, in its landmark ruling Friday, said recognition is required by the legal doctrine of comity -- under which one state accepts the legal judgments of another -- because same-sex marriage is neither "repugnant" to the state's public policy nor expressly prohibited by state law. The court's ruling came as a Maryland state law permitting same-sex marriages is slated to go into effect Jan. 1. But that law, the Civil Marriage Protection Act, will likely be put before Maryland voters this fall, as opponents of the measure have mounted a petition drive to get the 55,736 signatu...

[Eric Traub] says he definitely wants his daughter to see the world, when the time is right to do so. "However, more importantly I want [Angelique] to have both loving parents in her life. Even though from a legal standpoint I opposed the move, in spirit I have never fought against anything in this matter. I have always been and will always be fighting for my daughter's voice to be heard, for her healthy development, for her strength and fulfillment as a woman." Even if he had been willing to move to Costa Rica with [Tina Brenes] and her husband, Traub notes that the court psychologist in the case concluded that such a move would be detrimental to their daughter at this time. "Angelique also feels this and only wants her needs and desires to be heard," Traub says. "I think that listenin...

The belief that enlisted military divorce rates are unusually high is a recurring theme expressed among those living in the military community, yet quantitative data on military divorce rates remain a virtual lacuna. The all-volunteer enlisted force also happens to be an almost all-married enlisted force. Assessing the degree of marital dissolution experienced by military personnel has important implications for the well being of military families and also for readiness levels and reenlistment likelihood. In this paper, I analyze underutilized military data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth and find that enlisted divorce rates in the Armed Forces are higher than for comparable civilians within a specific age range.
