OT: Family Law Attorneys?

Any of the attorneys on here practice Family Law? Need to see how complicated it will be for me and soon to be ex wife to file a Pro Se divorce, no children, no spousal support, just property and personal items to be divided by mutual inventory. Any help would be appreciated.

Rangers Floppy Hat Question

A few years ago the Rangers did a "floppy hat" promotion. Does anyone know where to find something similar to that right now? Any Texas Rangers floppy hat that'll fit an adult sized melon. A cursory Google, eBay, Amazon.com and shop.mlb.com search didn't seem to find anything.

K-Law Chat on Feliz

John (Dallas): Does Feliz have a chance for three solid pitches? I heard that the curve looks much better and that the change should play with his fastball.
Keith Law: The change is above average already, and the curve is definitely improving although I'd still call it below average.

Sickels on the Rangers Draft

Texas: The Rangers were supposed to draft Shelby Miller in most mocks, but went with a different Texas prep in reality, Matt Purke. He's got excellent stuff but a big price tag, but I imagine he'll end up signing. Supplemental pick Tanner Scheppers has the second-best arm in the draft, but the shoulder issue kept him out of the first round. High-risk, high-reward here definitely; I'll admit that I wouldn't have drafted him myself because of the injury history, but I'm risk-adverse and I'll give the Rangers credit for having guts. Tommy Mendonca in the second round out of Fresno State is basically Chris Davis but with a decent glove at third base. Robbie Erlin in the third round, prep lefty from California, is "short" at 5-11 but has a live arm and I think he is a good gamble. Fourth round Oklahoma ace Andrew Doyle has average velocity but throws strikes and eats innings. The rest of the rounds were filled out with athletes and arms, raw but promising. Sixth round Puerto Rican OF Ruben Sierra Jr, 7th round Georgia prep Braxton Lane,. and 9th round Miami Dade CC outfielder Jabari Blash all stand out for their athleticism but are very raw. This is a bold draft, which could yield great dividends but could also result in a series of tools busts.
