After Jos and her unborn child survive a gruesome attack on their lives by her jealousy-crazed ex-husband, she struggles to put her life back together. The road to mental and physical recovery is a tedious one, but with the help of loved ones, they not only survive, but thrive. Even so, Jos swears off relationships and the carnal pleasures she usually enjoys and have grown accustomed to until a night out on the town reminds her of what she is missing in the sack. Her life as she has come to know it changes after a chance meeting with a virile Doron, who not only sweeps her off her feet, but gives her a second chance at everything she believed would have forever been missing from her life. Although challenges in her career and personal life threaten what she is now building, she manages, in her usual Jos fashion, to rise above the ashes. In the end, she comes out victorious when things fall perfectly into place, and she is more hopeful than ever before about what lies ahead.

TheDirty.com, a heavily trafficked online gossip sheet, was created by an entrepreneur by the name of Nik Richie--whose Iranian parents named him Hooman Karamian. Richie's appearances on programs like Dr. Phil, Anderson Cooper 360, Nancy Grace, and 20/20 suddenly provided him with notoriety as the Internet's bad boy, whose site is employed by angry ex-mates (of both sexes) to post sordid and vengeful revelations online. TheDirty.com also presents opinionated comments from Nik himself about the shape of women's bodies, as well as a language particular to his site.

A Choice Outstanding Academic Title "Cover to cover, Screening Asian Americans, a collection of 15 essays, is fabulous."--AsianWeek.com "This scholarly book uses 15 contributors to explore the various images of Asians, many of which have been negative."-Burlington County Times This innovative essay collection explores Asian American cinematic representations historically and socially, on and off screen, as they contribute to the definition of American character. The history of Asian Americans on movie screens, as outlined in Peter X Feng's introduction, provides a context for the individual readings that follow. Asian American cinema is charted in its diversity, ranging across activist, documentary, experimental, and fictional modes, and encompassing a wide range of ethnicities (Filipino, Vietnamese, Indian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and Taiwanese). Covered in the discussion are filmmakers--Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, Ang Lee, Trinh T. Minh-ha, and Wayne Wang--and films such as The Wedding Banquet, Surname Viet Given Name Nam, and Chan is Missing. Throughout the volume, as Feng explains, the term screening has a twofold meaning-referring to the projection of Asian Americans as cinematic bodies and the screening out of elements connected with these images. In this doubling, film representation can function to define what is American and what is foreign. Asian American filmmaking is one of the fastest growing areas of independent and studio production. This volume is key to understanding the vitality of this new cinema.
