Nonetheless, as the mother of a 12-
year-old pre-bar mitzvah boy, Brody
readily identifies and condemns the
competition in that scene.
"I won't be part of it," she vows.
When asked about the party favor she
plans for son Charlie's guests, she
enjoys responding, "Oh, we're giving
each kid a Rolex."
The party's theme? "It's my bar
mitzvah, period."
As for appearance, this, too, is not a
place where she competes. But she
bemoans what business casual has
done to women.
"I wish women would compete
more," Brody complains, noting the
sloppy sweaters and cords that she sees
in the office.
She, in turn, concedes she's high on
image. "I get my nails done every
week. I'd have to be bleeding from the
carotid artery to miss my manicure."
Sunrise offrrs a full spectrum of supportive care to meet the challenges of advanced age in a warm and iymforting environment.

and close to home. Here, cherished
relationships continue to flourish,
and new friendships are forged.
At eight locations throughout Michigan,
Sunrise offers seniors a warm and
comforting environment. With great
regard for the individuality of each
resident, compassionate caregivers meet
needs that are light, comprehensive
or somewhere in between. Sunrise is

setting—competitive with home care
and significantly less expensive than a
nursing home.

Beauty's Drawback
Competition among women may never
completely disappear. Indeed, Tanenbaum
suggests Govemor-elect Granholm's beau-
ty may prove to be a
liability.
"A beautiful
woman is always
suspect,"
Tanenbaum corn-
ments. "It's very
hard for beautiful
women to inspire
confidence or
Governor-elect
befriend other
Jennifer
women.
Granholm:
"Female politi-

it shows they're
ambitious. Hillary
Clinton is disliked with vehemence
because she is a successful woman who
is honest about her ambition."
Still, the writer offers hope. Past
alliances among women have brought
significant progress, notably bringing
suffrage and greater recognition for
women in sports.
Contrasting her life with that of her
mother and grandmother, Tanenbaum
says, "Immigrant Jewish women were
under enormous pressure to assimilate,
and this became bound up with mate-
rialism, a craving for the right logos
and the image of the JAP (Jewish
American Princess).
"But we have so many possibilities
today."
All the more reason, she feels, to end
the catty behavior. CI
