Rocked To The Core
Imagine yourself at the gym, sweatin’ to the oldies, when suddenly, mid-crunch, you feel that familiar tingle in your lady parts, before launching into a full-blown O. It’s called a coregasm, and the experience has been getting attention lately in women’s health magazines, which claim that certain standard exercises can bring a woman to climax. The theory about how this magical feat works is rather hazy, as there’s little research available, but the gist is that multiple reps of movements that work your core (the muscles in your abs, pelvic fl oor, hips, and back) can trigger nerve impulses in the pelvic area, bringing on a surprise petit mort. I decided to investigate this phenomenon and see if I could score a coregasm of my own.

Call Of Duty
The school talent show is coming up yet again, and for the first time in years, no one in my family will be participating. Inky graduated last year. And Milo considered enlisting a fellow third-grader to help him reenact a scene from the Rankin/Bass excremental 1977 version of The Hobbit before ultimately deciding to skip this production. Hallelujah! His lack of interest is my ticket out! After half a decade on the volunteer adult crew that keeps this annual turkey from running off the rails, I feel more than ready to retire. Let some camera-wielding slacker who thinks she can get away with sitting in the front row, documenting her own child’s wonderfulness, step up to the plate.

Word Warrior
For fans of firebrand spoken-word artist Staceyann Chin, the basic story behind her new book, The Other Side of Paradise (Scribner), will sound familiar. Since her emigration to New York from Jamaica in 1997, the 36-year-old writer/performer has been mining her turbulent early life—a time full of abandonment and hardship during which she was passed off among various relatives— on increasingly public stages, from the poetry-slam scene of N.Y.C. to Broadway as a cast member in Russell Simmons’ Def Poetry Jam and even to The Oprah Winfrey Show.
