Contents: | Partially political movements in semiauthoritarian systems -- Running to lose? : elections, authoritarianism, and Islamist movements -- Beyond analogy mongering : ideological movements and the debate over the primacy of politics -- The model and the mother movement -- The model in practice in four semiauthoritarian settings -- Can Islamists party? : political participation and organizational change -- Ideological change : flirtation and commitment -- Arab politics and societies as they might be -- Islamist parties and Arab political systems as they are. |
Responsibility: | Nathan J. Brown. |
"Throughout the Arab world, Islamist political movements are joining the electoral process. This change alarms some observers and excites other. In recent years, electoral opportunities have opened, and Islamist movements have seized them. But those opportunities, while real, have also been sharply circumscribed. Elections may be freer, but they are not fair. The opposition can run but it generally cannot win. Semiauthoritarian conditions prevail in much of the Arab world, even in the wake of the Arab Spring. How do Islamist movements change when they plunge into freer but unfair elections? How do their organizations (such as the Muslim Brotherhood) and structures evolve? What happens to their core ideological principles? And how might their increased involvement affect the political system? In When Victory Is Not an Option, Nathan J. Brown addresses these questions by focusing on Islamist movements in Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, and Palestine."--p. [4] of cover.

GUILDERLAND, N.Y. -- A Richmond, Virginia man was arrested after a high speed chase that led police from two separate departments down Route 146 and Western Avenue Saturday night.

According to police, the suspect continued onto Western, intentionally hitting two Guilderland police cars. They eventually stopped Hallmark near Sumter Ave. in Guilderland and took him into custody.
Hallmark now faces several charges, including attempted assault and reckless endangerment.

Former President Carter has crossed a line that Bush and his Israeli allies have set, aimed at isolating and destroying Hamas. Despite the fact that Hamas won internationally recognized elections in

The preliminary results of these meetings are very intriguing. Hamas has offered to accept
The attacks on Carter are not only aimed at undermining any good will that he has secured with Hamas and the Syrians, but also at blocking efforts at any route to peace not dictated by Bush and the Israeli government. As became clear in the aftermath of the Palestinian elections and the Hamas victory, elections and self- determination are perfectly acceptable for Bush and the Israeli government as long as the results are those that Bush and the Israelis have approved.
It is critically important that we in Black America add our voices to those, internationally, who are and have been supporting President Carter's peace efforts (and other legitimate peace efforts) aimed at securing a just settlement of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, and specifically, justice for the Palestinian people. Actions aimed at intimidating pro-Palestinian and pro- peace forces must be halted, but, as with any bully, will only be halted when people of good will stand firm and insist that this will not be tolerated.
Unfortunately, being anti-Palestinian seems to be a litmus test for many politicians in the

More copies of this ISBNThis title in other editionsSteal Like an Artist: 10 Things Nobody Told You about Being Creativeby Austin Kleon
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:You don't need to be a genius, you just need to be yourself. That's the message from Austin Kleon, a young writer and artist who knows that creativity is everywhere, creativity is for everyone. A manifesto for the digital age, Steal Like an Artist is a guide whose positive message, graphic look and illustrations, exercises, and examples will put readers directly in touch with their artistic side.
When Mr. Kleon was asked to address college students in upstate New York, he shaped his speech around the ten things he wished someone had told him when he was starting out. The talk went viral, and its author dug deeper into his own ideas to create Steal Like an Artist, the book. The result is inspiring, hip, original, practical, and entertaining. And filled with new truths about creativity: Nothing is original, so embrace influence, col- lect ideas, and remix and re-imagine to discover your own path. Follow your interests wherever they take you. Stay smart, stay out of debt, and risk being boring—the creative you will need to make room to be wild and daring in your imagination. Synopsis:The act of creating art, in all its forms, offers us a path to our souls. But the path can be confusing, and getting lost along the way is inevitable. However, maybe thatand#8217;s the point. In The Tricksterand#8217;s Hat, bestselling author of the Griffin and Sabine cycle Nick Bantock invites you to lose yourself in order to become a better creator. Inspired by Nick's popular and mischievous workshops, the book's forty-nine perceptive exercises will encourage you to forget your destination while you meander through the wondrous world that awaits you in the periphery of your mind's eye. If youand#8217;re willing to be lead hither and thither down unlikely paths by a fellow of dubious reputation, if youand#8217;re prepared to keep a sense of humor and not be phased when he plucks the unexpected out of a mischief-stuffed hat, if youand#8217;re ready to zigzag, detour, and wander in search of a better understanding of your artistic core, then, let the Trickster be your guide. About the AuthorAustin Kleon is a writer and artist. He is the author of Steal Like an Artist and the found poetry collection Newspaper Blackout ("brilliant," New York Magazine), and his work has been featured on NPR's Morning Edition, PBS NewsHour, The Wall Street Journal, and the art website, 20x200.com. He speaks about creativity and being an artist online for organizations such as SXSW, TEDx, and The Economist. He lives in Austin and online at austinkleon.com.

Randolph Hunter Granted New TrialMan Convicted Of Shooting Bus Originally Sentenced To One YearJuly 24, 2013RANDOLPH — A Randolph hunter convicted last year of accidentally shooting a school bus has been granted a new trial.... KCW007So can it now be rightfully argued by the defense that the prosecutor's last minute, so called "misstatement" actually constituted the state's abandonment of all charges that might result in jail time? If so, does that also mean that those charges cannot now be reinstated in the new trial under double jeopardy? Also, in the article appearing on page B1 in yesterday's Buffalo paper, the defense contends that the prosecution never presented "conclusive proof" (forensic evidence?) that bullet actually came from the defendant's gun. The whole thing looks like regular comedy of errors with nobody paying any attention as to what was going on. 5 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » Larry1This was just an accident. Luckily no one got hurt. I think he has been punished enough. What purpose would jail time serve? 2 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse » MonkeyboyIt would keep him from shooting another school bus for a year. 0 Agrees | 4 Disagrees | Report Abuse » bluesmanIf memory serves, that bullet traveled about 1500 ft. before it hit the bus. Had the bus not been there it would have gone even farther. You can't make that mistake. You have to know what's behind your target. I'm ok with probation, but he shouldn't be allowed to hunt again. He didn't know the bus was there, but he knew the road was there. 1 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse » Showing 4 of 4 comments

More copies of this ISBNThe Passionby Jeanette Winterson
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The Passion is a modern classic that confirms Jeanette Winterson's special claim on the novel. Set during the tumultuous years of the Napoleonic Wars, The Passion intertwines the destinies of two remarkable people: Henri, a simple French soldier, who follows Napoleon from glory to Russian ruin; and Villanelle, the red-haired, web-footed daughter of a Venetian boatman, whose husband has gambled away her heart. In Venice's compound of carnival, chance, and darkness, the pairi meet their singular destiny.
Review:"A Historical novel quite different from any other...it is written with a living passion, an eyewitness immediacy....Winterson is a master of her material, a writer in whom great talent deeply abides." Vanity Fair

Out of the Ruins
The God of Small Things
The central character of The God of Small Things (she is just called "Ammu"—Mother—because the story is even more about her twin children) is a South Indian woman who has few advantages in her background but who refuses to be docile: "Must we behave like some damn godforsaken tribe that's just been discovered?" she snaps when her English sister-in-law enthuses about quaint, exotic Kerala. And it is hard for Western readers not to respond as much to the rich and (to us) exotic setting of Arun-dhati Roy's powerful first novel as to its tragic story. Banana flowers, vine-covered trees, jackfruit, wild pepper; cormorants, purple herons, giant spiders, a drenched mongoose; a blind old lady in a starched sari, ruby rings, and 1950s sunglasses with rhinestones at the corners; a hut smelling of woodsmoke and fish curry, on the wall a picture of Jesus with lipstick and a bleeding heart; bedizened Kathakali dancers playing out the death of Dushasana till dawn by the light of an oil lamp. We have learned something about India from the other brilliant Indian novelists now writing, but more about the North than about tropical, Marxist Kerala, some twelve hundred miles south of Delhi.
But Roy—and everyone will have heard by now that she is beautiful, bohemian, wrote in secret for four years a book that has been fought over by publishers, and is therefore not un-exotic herself—Roy has insisted that she is not marketing fairyland: "To me, this is exotic," she said to interviewers in London. What she describes here is a landscape and a society that she grew up in and that she knows in every small detail; she herself may be the goddess of small things. Nor, she has insisted, is the book meant as an exposé of Communist rule in a South Indian state, or the harshness of the rural family code for women. The story is not just about "some godforsaken tribe" but about love and cruelty, time and disintegration. It is frightening, beautiful, unrelenting.
The Kochamma family are educated, anglicized Keralans, by religion Syrian Christian, living in the ancestral house by the village of Ayemenem. Grandfather to the twins Rahel and Estha was a government entomologist, who doggedly beat his wife with a brass vase. She, Mammachi, scars from the beatings still on her scalp, plays Handel's Water Music on the violin and runs an efficient pickle factory. Her sister is Baby Kochamma (Indian nicknames and family connections make the reader stumble at first), a gross and malevolent old woman who has turned Catholic because of a thwarted love for a priest. Mammachi's son, Chacko, who also lives with them, was a Rhodes Scholar, rowed for Balliol, married an English woman who left him for a more conventional mate, and is now a half-hearted Communist and a lapsed pickle-maker. Ammu is his sister, and mother of the boy and girl twins. On two counts she is something of a scandal: she both …

The GlenDronach Single Malt Returns to the U.S.
Filed under: Spirits
The Highland distillery was recently acquired by the independently owned BenRiach Distillery Company Ltd. from Pernod Ricard, allowing it to stay focused on producing some of the world's best Scotch without compromise.
GlenDronach was founded by the legendary James Allardice in 1826, just three years after the Excise Act was passed in 1823. Arguably one of the most unspoiled distilleries in Scotland, they are proudly using the same production processes today as they did in 1826.
Many of the distillery's unique attributes offer a distinctive character that you will not find anywhere else, and they are still producing the original, richly sherried style of single malt Scotch whisky associated with the distillery in its early days.
Preiss Imports will handle the U.S. distribution for this historical distillery, alongside the existing distribution for BenRiach. Initially, the 12, 15, and 18 year old (right) expressions will be available in the U.S. this fall, and a 33 year old expression will be available in early 2010.

Facing surgery can be a scary time for children and their parents. Fortunately, the surgeons at CHOC Children's are experts at performing a wide range of operations on children. The following are some examples of the most common surgeries in children. Inguinal Hernia Dr. Kavianian says an inguinal hernia can be present from birth to adulthood and usually does not cause any symptoms except for a bulge in the groin or scrotum. However, when the hernia content gets caught and can't return to the abdomen, it is called incarcerated. If this happens, you should take your child to the emergency room immediately. Alarming signs include severe pain at the hernia site. Younger infants usually just cry. The hernia lump is also very tender to touch. If you discover a lump or bulge in or around the groin area, you should see your child's pediatrician as soon as possible. A simple outpatient surgery by a pediatric surgeon can resolve the problem. Appendicitis Pain usually starts in the middle of the abdomen and then moves to the right side and lower part of the abdomen. The child may develop a fever and start vomiting, Dr. Kavianian says. If you think your child has appendicitis, take him or her to the pediatrician or emergency room without delay. If the operation is done before the appendix is ruptured, surgery is minor and the hospital stay is usually about two days. A ruptured appendix usually requires five to seven days in the hospital. Necrotizing Fasciitis If you observe such a condition, you should immediately take your child to the emergency room. He or she will then likely be admitted to the hospital. Good hygiene, including frequent hand washing, can reduce the risk of getting this infection. We've Got Answers
An inguinal hernia is one of the most common conditions in infants and children, and it is usually more common in boys, according to Ali Kavianian, M.D., surgeon-in-chief at CHOC Children's. A hernia occurs when part of the abdominal organ pokes through a weak area of abdominal wall muscles.
Appendicitis occurs when the appendix, a small tubular-shaped organ that is connected to the large intestine, becomes swollen and infected.
Necrotizing fasciitis is becoming more common. It starts with a red pimple which can be seen around the buttocks or belly and can be mistaken for a diaper rash. But, within a very short time—sometimes just six to eight hours—it becomes very red, swollen, and painful, and the child will develop a fever. If not treated properly, it becomes very extensive and causes gangrene, or dead tissue.
If your child needs surgery, you've likely got questions. CHOC Children's is here to help. Learn more about surgery at CHOC by visiting www.choc.org/surgery.

has anyone seen instructions on what i think is called a reverse blind?
This is where the fabric puddles on the window sill and is pulled from the bottom up. (kind of like a roman blind only upside down). It's so that you can have privacy and yet still get light in from the top. I believe marine hardware is used to pull the fabric up.
Blinds are good to block out the neighbours but I want more light.

Following a year of tensions between their country and the United States, Pakistanis continue to hold highly unfavorable views of the U.S. and offer bleak assessments of the relationship between the two nations.
Roughly three-in-four Pakistanis (74%) consider the U.S. an enemy, up from 69% last year and 64% three years ago. And President Obama is held in exceedingly low regard. Indeed, among the 15 nations surveyed in both 2008 and 2012 by the Pew Global Attitudes Project, Pakistan is the only country where ratings for Obama are no better than the ratings President George W. Bush received during his final year in office.
Only 13% of Pakistanis think relations with the U.S. have improved in recent years, down 16 percentage points from 2011. Strengthening the bilateral relationship is also becoming less of a priority for Pakistanis. While 45% still say it is important to improve relations with the U.S., this is down from 60% last year.

hen Chris Cartwright of Farmer Joe's Meats bought a property in Murrabit, Victoria one hour southeast of Swan Hill, he did not intend to become a goat farmer. Originally a dairy and beef cattle producer, he shifted to goat production four years ago when the land he purchased came with goats. "I didn't know what I was going to do with them," he explains, "but I kept them and liked them."
Goat meat, often known as kid, has not enjoyed as much popularity in Australia as it has in Africa, South America, Asia and parts of southern Europe. It has had an unfortunate and unfair reputation for being gamey and tough, and until recently, kid has been a delicacy restricted to those migrant communities that know how to do it justice. It was in a small Sicilian restaurant in Melbourne that I first encountered young kid slow-cooked with nothing more than some woody herbs and a light broth. The result was subtly and extraordinarily tender meat that fell off the bone when poked gently with a spoon.
Cheeky and robust animals, goats are notoriously clever which means they can be delightful to work with but also very tricky to keep fenced in. Now managing a herd of 2500, Chris is engaged in a constant battle to keep one step ahead of his animals. He is humble in crediting the goats with changing his production methods and even saving his business during a crisis period. "They taught us that we don't need to use chemicals and fertilisers like we used to," he says. "It was a natural progression that happened when we were in drought. The goats pretty much saved our skin. It was a financial decision not to use the chemicals and fertilisers, but it had no effect on the goats, and they still found a lot of food to eat naturally." The willingness to observe and, most importantly, to learn from his animals has become a valuable lesson for him in farming more sustainably.
As Chris discovered, goats are great fossickers and grazers: "They don't just want lush grass. They're happy to eat something a bit woody like thistles and burrs. They mix their diet up. If you watch them throughout the day, they eat a variety of plants, nuts, whatever they can find." Though Chris still has a weed problem on his farm, the goats are pitching in to help out: "The goats are doing a pretty good job at getting rid of the weeds. They quite enjoy them when they're young because they're juicy and full of sugar. Goats are very versatile, and that suits our environment."
During the debate that raged around the release of the Murray Darling Basin Authority's draft plan, experts argued that science should dictate how we manage our water and rivers. Unfortunately scientific experts in agriculture and resource management have lost sight of the question of food (as opposed to commodities) and given little thought to what we should be growing and eating in this country, particularly for farms such as Chris's which is a long stone's throw from the redgum-lined reaches of the Murray River. Rather than putting our efforts into developing more efficient irrigation systems, it seems like a no-brainer to encourage farming practices along important waterways that produce food more appropriate to the environment – in this case, livestock that enjoys hot and dry conditions, loves to eat weeds and requires very little water or chemical inputs as a result.
The best thing about goats is not only how well suited they are to the Australian landscape, but also the quality of the meat. Good quality goat has not always been easy to find in Australia. Until a few years ago, the meat sometimes came from older animals. Nobody likes a smelly, old goat. "But at four to six months," Chris explains, "their meat has a totally different texture. They've no smell, and they're quite tender. Good quality meat is a bit more accessible these days so it's easier for chefs to sell it. Once people get over their perception of goats and taste the meat, they really enjoy it."
Aside from being intelligent, goats are also productive as there is little wastage once they are butchered. The flesh is as lean as skinless chicken but contains as much protein and iron as red meat, making it a very healthy option. Capretto, a milk-fed youngster up to 10 weeks old, has a milder flavour than chevon which is up to a year old. The type of goat will also influence the flavour. Rangeland goats have evolved from the original herds brought over by the first fleet of settlers in 1788. Having escaped into the wild as goats are wont to do, they are so adapted to local conditions that they bear little resemblance to breeds outside Australia.
Until recently, the goat industry has engaged in the opportunistic harvesting of animals roaming pastoral properties across the country. This is great for controlling feral goat populations, but less than ideal from a quality perspective. The industry is now moving towards the Boer goat, a South African breed introduced to Australia in 1993. Managed production has allowed for a more premium product than opportunistic harvesting, and the few goat producers I've found at farmers markets are breeding Boers.
Chris has been selling at farmers markets for about two years which he says has forced him to learn how to cook because he is inundated with questions from curious shoppers such as myself uninitiated in the art of preparing goat. From week to week, he experiments with his butcher by having the meat cut differently to see how it responds to various cooking styles. A versatile meat that can be stewed, curried, roasted, barbequed or dried, the leanness of kid responds very nicely to slow, moist braises. A whole shoulder can take four to five hours of gentle cooking on a relatively low heat. Because I'm not cooking for a family, I've been playing with the more manageable shanks. Here are a few recipes I've come up with in my experimentations.
Braised goat with borlotti beans
This recipe is very flexible so feel free to substitute potatoes for beans, red wine for white and anything else that strikes your fancy. The important thing is to keep the meat covered with moisture so it remains tender.
4 goat shanks
1 tsp smoked sweet paprika
small leek, finely sliced
small onion, diced
1 celery stalk, sliced
1-2 cloves of garlic, chopped
small bunch of sage, coarsely chopped
15 grams dried chanterelles (or other dried or fresh wild mushrooms)
bay leaf
1½ cup of white wine
2-3 cups of chicken stock (veal is even better, but I rarely have it on hand)
1 tin of tomatoes (preferably Romanella)
small bunch of Tuscan kale, stem removed and leaves chopped
1 cup of dry borlotti beans, soaked overnight
Season meat with salt, paprika and pepper, and allow to stand at room temperature for an hour or so. Preheat oven to 150C. Brown the goat on all sides in a heavy casserole. Set aside, and deglaze with a touch of white wine or stock. Next add the onion, leek, celery, sage and garlic and sauté. Deglaze again with the remaining wine, add the dried mushrooms, and reduce. Add the soaked beans and bay leaf. Place the shanks on top of the beans, and pour in chicken stock until meat is almost covered. Cover with a paper lid. After about 3 hours, add the chopped kale to the cooking liquid and cook for another 30-45 minutes. After 3-4 hours of cooking, the meat should be so tender that it barely clings to the bone. Serve the shanks on top of the beans and vegetables. The liquidy broth can be soaked up with a good quality bread.
Lemon-marinated goat with sukuma wiki
Having recently bonded over goat with a Kenyan friend (goat is much loved across most of Africa), I decided to try my hand at serving it with a traditional Kenyan dish, sukuma wiki, which literally means "stretch the week" as it extends meat dishes into something more substantial. A truly Kenyan dish would involve seasoning the meat with spices rather than herbs, but I've exercised culinary licence here as I wanted the flavour of the goat to express itself with minimal interference and sit up nicely against the fragrant piquancy of the kale.
4 goat shanks
1 ½-2 cups of chicken stock (depending on the size of your pot)
3/4 cup of white wine
Several stems of thyme and oregano, leaves removed
Juice of two lemons
1 extra lemon, sliced
2-3 cloves of garlic
Olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Bash the garlic, herbs, salt and pepper together in a mortar and pestle. Mix together with lemon juice and enough olive oil to make at least a half-cup of marinade. Cover meat in marinate, and leave for at least 24 hours (and up to 3 days).
Bring the meat to room temperature. Lay the shanks in a heavy casserole (and pour in the marinade). Add extra garlic if desired. Place a few lemon slices over the meat. Pour in wine and stock (enough to reach halfway up the shanks), and cover with a lid. Cook at around 130C for 4 hours. When the meat is cooked, remove the lemon slices. Collect at least a cup of the lemony cooking broth which will be used for the sukuma wiki.
Sukuma wiki
2 bunches of Tuscan kale, stem removed and roughly chopped
1 small onion, finely diced
1 cup of tomato, deseeded and chopped
1 tablespoon of fresh coriander root, finely chopped
1-2 cloves of garlic
1 fresh green chilli (seeds removed, depending on how much heat you like)
1 dried red chilli (seeds removed)
1 cup of chicken stock
1 cup of cooking broth from the goat
Handful of fresh coriander leaves, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Sauté the onions, garlic, chilli and coriander root together until transparent. Add tomatoes, and cook until soft. In a separate pot, bring the stock and cooking liquid to the boil. Add the chopped kale, and stir through the liquid as it cooks. When the kale is no longer chewy, add it to the tomato/onion mix. Continue cooking until most of the liquid has evaporated. Season, and stir through chopped coriander. Pull the meat off the bone, and mix with the kale along with more cooking broth if desired. Garnish with more coriander, and serve.
Bon appétit.

Pros: Fast, Sleek
Cons: No apps, bad price point with no Netflix app
It's fast, no doubt about it. However there are basically NO APPS for it. No Netflix, No WSJ, Barely any books through Google Books (which you can get around by using the Kindle app).. so what's the point?
Supposedly when Google gets their fragmentation OS issue fixed, apps will begin to get released in late 2011, but right now it's pretty much pointless to buy any Android based tabs right now unless you are ONLY looking to surf the internet and check e-mail.

New Jersey's 'Tan Mom' Seems A Lot More Sane Today (Video)
Yesterday the whole world sat up from their collective tanning bed, took the cucumbers out of their eyes, and shook their head in disgust over the tale of New Jersey's Patricia Krentcil, the 40-year-old mother who stands accused of trying to give her 6-year-old a nice base color.
Today was Ms. Krentcil's court date, and of course TMZ was there to capture Mr. Krentcil sounding like a completely in-control person who should be allowed to have custody over her daughter. Read More

Design and Technology is currently a foundation subject within the National Curriculum and is compulsory at Key Stages 1, 2 and 3. The programmes of study fall into 24 schemes of work, to be used at schools' discretion.
Primary curriculum
The primary curriculum enables children to gain knowledge/understanding of
- materials and components
- mechanisms and control systems
- structures
- existing products
- quality
- health and safety.
It enables them to
- develop designing skills
- acquire practical skills, including working with materials components
- apply scientific skills (e.g. predicting and fair testing)
- apply mathematical skills (e.g measuring to appropriate number of decimal places)
- apply information technology and art skills (e.g making things happen by the use of control, and developing finishing skills).
Secondary curriculum
A revised D&T secondary curriculum was introduced in September 2008 with new KS3 programmes of study, starting with Yr 7 pupils, with the following changes
- reduced prescription over subject content
- flexibility for teachers to design schemes of work reflecting their school's local needs and interests
- additional time for pupils to study some areas in greater depth.
There are currently four components within the KS3 programmes of study
- systems and control
- resistant materials
- food (previously referred to as 'food technology')
- textiles.
Of these, the first two are currently compulsory, and pupils must also study at least one of either food or textiles.
We have decided not to go ahead with the previous Government's plans to make cooking compulsory at Key Stage 3 in 2011 because the Government does not want to pre-empt the outcome of the current review of the National Curriculum.

How Much Help Is Available?
That depends on a number of factors and is determined individually. Here's how it works:
Taking into account your financial situation, RCC calculates your Expected Family Contribution (EFC). If the cost of attending RCC is greater than your EFC, aid is available to make up the difference. That aid could come in the form of grants, which do not have to be repaid; loans, which must be repaid; and/or work-study, where you work for the money. However, even if you show no "need" level, unsubsidized Stafford loans are usually available.
Types of Help Available
Who may apply?
U.S. citizens and eligible noncitizens may apply for financial aid.To be eligible for aid, you must:
- Be enrolled in a course of study leading to a degree or certificate or in a program preparing for transfer to a four-year institution.
- Have graduated from high school OR completed a GED or an Adult High School Diploma OR earned the recognized equivalent of high school completion for the state of Oregon, defined by the Jackson Educational Service District as passing a 10th grade test.
- Achieve minimum ASSET placement test scores of 35 in reading, 35 in writing, and 33 in math OR have minimum COMPASS scores of 62 in reading, 32 in writing, and 25 in math.
- Be registered with Selective Service, if required.
- Make satisfactory academic progress.
- Not owe a repay on a federal grant or be in default on a federal education loan.
- Demonstrate financial need (except for Unsubsidized Stafford Loans) through the FAFSA process.

And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel reigned Asa over Judah. And forty and one years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Maachah, the daughter of Abishalom. (vv.9-10)
It is possible, of course, that Abijam married his own mother (Maachah) and was, therefore, Asa's father and brother.

We went to Wal-Mart at 10pm in Coralville thinking we could wait around until the electronics went on sale at midnight. Everyone had the same idea. We had to stalk regular shoppers leaving to get a parking spot and you couldn't use a cart because they were abandoned everywhere and no room in the store anywhere to push a cart. It was my first black Friday experience and my last. Kohls was more civil but a LONG line to check out, all the way to the back of the store. It took 45 minutes to get through that line.

We have added the following products to your shopping cart from a previous visit:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
On initial pouring, the colours of this wine are dark and concentrated and suggest a very young wine. Served blind, the fragrance and voluptuous, red fruit aromas lead you to think that it's more likely a brooding Kiwi pinot than McLaren Vale Grenache. However, as the aromas evolve, notes of roasted meats, liquorice, spices, white pepper & sweet paprika emerge. Combined with concentrated maraschino cherries & blueberry flavours and it soon becomes obvious that this is real Grenache, at its best.
The palate is rich and soft dominated by very pure, deep, exotic, spiced, red fruit and Turkish delight notes. This is followed by savoury edges of herbs, bitter chocolate and earthy/tarry leather flavours that are long, juicy and balanced with fine lacy acidity and ripe slippery tannins.
The richness of fruit, overall softness and very long finish is impressive and, for those who haven't really understood the complexities of Grenache, this wine could be quite captivating. Those Grenache converts will find this a real pleasure. Possibly the best we have crafted to date, we expect this will be a fascinating wine to taste and drink over the next 10 to 15 years ahead.
"The deep crimson-colored 2006 The Derelict Vineyard Grenache is redolent of garrigue, lavender, and black cherry aromas. Dense, layered, and sweetly fruited, it will deliver pleasure over the next six years." 91 Points The Wine Advocate
"Dark red. Fresh red berries, musky underbrush, flowers and licorice on the complex nose. At once concentrated and lively, with fresh red fruit flavors and slow-mounting Indian spices. Finishes with impressive tang and length-not to mention excellent balance." 91 Points International Wine Cellar
"This has the chocolate-dipped strawberry flavors of ripe grenache, with brightness to the fruit that gives a dynamic feel to the structure. It will make a clean, fresh contrast to braised lamb. " 91 Points Wine & Spirits

($42) Pale orange. Deep, rich aromas of cherry and raspberry are given an exotic twist by blood orange, apricot pit and caramel accents. Lush and silky on the palate, with fresh redcurrant and raspberry flavors and an intriguing salty/sweet quality building through the finish. This is very wine-like, showing an impressive concentration and sweetness of fruit to stand up to richly flavored or spicy foods. (Sussex Wine Merchants, Moorestown, NJ)

great rose
by rogers13755212
I have purchased this champagne for the last 3 years. The rosé with the 2010 date on it, is drinking absolutely fabulous. I've had for a year now and having just tried against the current cuvee, I can categorically state that this wine improves dramatically with bottle age. The 2010 (not a vintage) has plenty of time left and I am looking forward to the current bottling with a few more months of age on it. Right now, the 2010 designation rivals Billecart-Salmon rosé (my former rosé of choice), while the 2012 designation is still a bit grapey and awkward.
A stunning Pink for the Price
by HED3
I have had this on numerous occasion and it never fails to please, sweet strawberry and bright fruit it is so good I have to remind myself to slow down when I drink it. Extra nice at $40 a bottle for Champagne!
A real mouthful
by Beach13807740
Fantastic bottle showing a lot of fruit on the nose and palate (raspberry married with orange?) and lively bubbles. This is great for sipping and very food friendly; it held its own with a variety of dishes at dinner. My wife and guests loved it. Color is deeper than I would have expected, but no complaints from this corner. Wish I had bought more - will certainly keep an eye out for its offering next holiday season!
Bright and Crisp
by LeHew13282949
Bright and crisp and amazingly bubbly, this wine drinks beautifully and finishes with classic Champagne elegance.
What Pink Champagne should be
by Milgrom13884306
Hints of raspberry and cassis in the nose, raspberry and toast notes on the palate, dry but with fruit giving just a hint of sweet in the finish, fine mousse that dances on the tongue.
by sussman13849716
wish I had bought more!
Pure Pink Pleasure
by pourtland,ME
The go-to rose Champagne. It doesn't get much better than this. Lush red fruit supported by warm spice, creamy mousse, and tight acidity. Love the new clear bottle too.
Rose Review
by chard12594229
This champagne was absolutely delicious,great flavor,body and yeasty goodness. For the price, a great bargain.
Excellent Champagne at any price
by jhs
This wine is outstandingrich and fruity up front, it finishes dry and clean. It is equal to or better than any prestige cuvee from a "big name" champagne house.
by Nebbiolo289582
I thought this wine was delightful. My bubbly-drinking guests enjoyed it. Happy to have a few more in my cellar.
I'm not even a Rose lover!!
by O'Donnell12559727
But this brut rose was extremely enjoyable :). Would buy again!
Good but not Great...
by Buhl14046243
Maybe my expectations were too high based on my other selections from Wine Access. Raspberry overtones, small bubbles, but as I said...good...not great...
by muscat12050004
For the price I expected a grat wine but was disappointed to find it somewhat pedestrian. Not much better than wines of its type at half the price.
by Minchow13675929
This is an excellent Champagne. However, it is difficult to justify the premium price in comparison to premium California sparkling wines, such as Schramsberg.
by Brown13783705
Was a little disappointed. Expected to be blown away.
Good Bubbly!
by buckel12369194
I agree with jhs on 5/21/07. It had a nice rich, fruity mouthfeel but still had a nice acidity. So good, I forget what I ate with it. I love the red fruit on the rose champagnes and although I typically drink champagne from the Ay region, I enjoyed this find from Bouzy. Celebrate life, drink champagne for any reason at all!
by syrah11892405
Jean-Louis Delavenne and his son Jean-Christophe farm 10 hectares in the heart of Bouzy, one of a very few villages in Champagne that can claim Grand Cru status.
Located at the foot of the Montagne de Reims these vineyards enjoy nearly perfect southern exposure and yield complex, intensely aromatic pinot noir.
The Brut Rosé is a blend of this exceptionally ripe Pinot-from vintages three and four years old-and a small amount of Chardonnay.
Dark berry and spice dominate the nose and palate while fine acid and delicate perlage convey the wine's flavors gracefully.
Excellent with richer fish and soft-ripened cheeses.
by Garcia1961
I am not a Rose person, but this had a wonderful flavor and paired well with machengo cheese
Insufficient minerality for my taste
by Warnock12063915
Perhaps my expectations were too high, but this Champagne, while good, did not make me wish that I had ordered more. It works better with food - needs more minerality - not the invite-friends-over-for-a-"see-God"-experience that I was hoping for!!
Your spin.
by ward13686872
Shame on you for spinning this as Montrachet with bubbles. It's more like Two Buck Chuck with bubbles! I've opened three bottles hoping the first were not right but unable to finish any - it's just not worth the calories..mostly you guys are right on, not this time.
by Wine10995924
I normally drink NM non-vintage; I was disappointed in this RM version - but taste is a rather individual thing.....
by tokay10090004
pretty color, nice smell, beautiful bubbles, taste- hate to say it but v. disappointing for US$48/boutille- tasted two dimensional, wrong dryness, would not buy again
Very Disappointing Bubbly
by Nairn12654230
I expected great things from this wine as there was plenty of hype. It opened without fuss which I thought odd and in the glass it was bland and in the bottle seemed flat. So, there you are - not cheap and not great. I kept it in the fridge - might it have been too cold? I have three bottles left and I certainly don't want them all to be like this first.
Underwhelming at best.
by Janke13432835
I found the champagne bubbly by tasteless. The Pinot Flavors were lacking and background sweetness in chmpagne non existent. I have made many purchaces on Wine Access and this was the first that I rated poorly.

Brodmann from Vienna
Designed by Hans Deutsch (no relation), made in Vienna, Brodmann Acoustics speakers come from the "musical instrument" rather than the "sound reproducer" tradition, rejecting the use of filters and damping materials to minimize distortion and unwanted speaker cabinet resonances. The theory may be controversial, but the Brodmann VC 7 ($25,000/pair) , with Electrocompaniet electronics, sounded superb, with great clarity, precise imaging, and, yes, a very "musical" sound.

We prepare designers for a world in which virtually anything from sensor networks to interactive surfaces to entire cities may be the next medium or platform of communication. We offer an educational experience for individuals who relish a complex challenge.
Anne Burdick, Chair
Degree: Master of Fine Arts
Art Centers graduate program in Media Design Practices offers a two- or three-year Master of Fine Arts curriculum that helps ambitious designers from a variety of backgrounds become design leaders and researchers in emerging fields. We are dedicated to defining new practices in design. Our graduates are prepared for a lifetime of invention.
Our vision is to educate designers not for the world as it is, but as it is becoming, to think hard about what it means to use our agency as designers to make the world as we may want it to be.
To take this on, we offer two tracks: Lab and Field. Each track, in its own way, orients the designer toward the challenges of the future and the changing role of design.
In the Lab track, students work in a studio context, using design to pose questions through applied and speculative projects that engage with emerging communication technologies and cultural practices. We move beyond the problem-solving paradigm to position the designer as a researcher with a distinct point-of-view who uses design to understand and engage with the world. We are expressly preparing media designers to take high performing roles in domains that are future-oriented and whose effects are far-reaching: information and communication technology, foresight units, industry R&D, scientific research labs, communication media, knowledge production, infrastructure and policy-making, and entrepreneurial or independent practices.
In the Field track, run in collaboration with Designmatters, students work in a real-world context where social issues, media infrastructure, and communication technology intersect. With the Field track, we take on the ethics, politics, and practices of design in the realm of social change (including the rhetoric of good). Our students experience the power dynamics of high-, low-, and no-tech communications in a social context firsthand. We are preparing designers to take an active role in the creation of new models for international development and civic engagement through work in communities, institutions, governments, and entrepreneurial endeavors. Our graduates build viable lifelong design practices that engage directly with the human condition.
In 2009, our department moved into a 14,000-square-foot former supersonic wind tunnel at Art Centers South Campus. A dramatic setting conducive to inspiration and experimentation, this dedicated space houses our students workstations, a digital lab and the Wind Tunnel gallery.

While the Miami Marlins are in the headlines for dismantling the core of their team, the New York Mets are apparently making an effort to retain theirs. Tonight Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports said that the team submitted a proposal to Wright and the third basemen's reps made a counter-offer.

I'd love to know what kind of numbers are being floated around right now but it's all just hearse at this point. According to Rosenthal Wright "is believed to be seeking an extension that would approach, and perhaps surpass, left-handerJohan Santana's club-record six-year, $137.5 million deal." YIKES! Unless the team brings back Omar Minaya I can't see them going that deep into their pockets for any player, even Wright. There's also the matter of trying to work out an extension with Cy Young candidate R.A. Dickey, of which Rosenthal writes:
Photo by Michael G. Baron
The Mets also want to sign right-hander R.A. Dickey to an extension, the team's chief operating officer, Jeff Wilpon, told reporters Tuesday.
The club's negotiations with Dickey, to this point, are not as advanced as those with Wright, sources said.
Dickey, a favorite for the National League Cy Young Award, which will be announced Wednesday, is under contract next season for $5 million.
Wilpon, according to the New York Times, said the team's priority was "to go through the process with (general manager) Sandy (Alderson) and the baseball department to get both of them signed. That's what we're doing."
Wilpon added that trade talks involving both players were "a backup at this point."

I can't help feel the fate of these two are somewhat tied. Wright will be 30-years-old by the time the 2013 starts and Dickey will be a crisp 38. It's safe to assume that at this point in their respective careers they want to be part of a club that is looking to compete for a championship now rather than later. If the Wright domino falls it may make it easier for a teetering Dickey domino to follow suit, but it's hard to imagine either player wanting to stick around if the team can't show them they're serious about committing to the immediate future.
