Is the Chevrolet Corvette a Good Car?
The Chevrolet Corvette has been around for almost 65 years, but it's nowhere close to retirement age. Over the decades, Chevy's flagship sports car has had its ups and downs, but its status as an American icon has remained. The current generation (which began in 2014) may be the best yet, and the 2017 Chevy Corvette earns rave reviews from all over the automotive world.
That's a long way of saying that the 2017 Corvette is a good car, but simply stating the obvious wouldn't do it justice. The Corvette has three distinct models that upgrade different aspects of the car's bravado. The standard engine is a brute V8 good for 455 horsepower, and the top-of-the-line Z06 model slaps a supercharger on this engine to make 650 horsepower. The Z06 can also sprint from zero to 60 mph in under 3 seconds. The Corvette's incredibly precise steering and handling mean that it's just as willing to take on the curves of a track as it is to go in a straight line. There are also a whole host of braking and suspension upgrades to unlock the Corvette's full potential.
The Corvette also excels in interior comfort and day-to-day livability. When not being pushed to the limit, it rides comfortably enough to be a regular driver. Interior quality is good, and there are plenty of modern features, like an infotainment system with smartphone integration.
Should I Buy the Chevrolet Corvette?
How many ways can we say yes? The 2017 Corvette is not only an objectively good car, but it proves to be a decent value in the class. The 2017 Corvette's MSRP is $55,450, which is about average for a luxury sports car. However, few rivals include such a strong overall package at that price.
One rival that can claim a similarly high regard from reviewers and shoppers is the Porsche Cayman. It has a slightly lower price point, but the MSRP difference of about $1,500 probably won't be enough to sway you either way. However, the Corvette comes with more standard horsepower. You can also get similar performance from the Corvette's sibling, the Chevrolet Camaro. It may not have the same clout as the Corvette, but widely shared parts and features make it a good bet for those who want a speed machine on more of a budget. On the other hand, the Dodge Viper gives almost no reason to justify its nearly $90,000 price tag, except for making a statement.
In short, the Corvette is one of the smartest choices you can make while shopping for a sports car.

We Did the Research for You: 31 Pieces of Data Analyzed
A lot of work goes into researching and making a decision on which new car to buy. To help you focus on making your choice, we've done the hard part and compiled 31 pieces of research from around the automotive industry to craft an expert analysis of the 2017 Chevrolet Corvette. Our reviews are based on the opinions of professional auto journalists, crash test results, predicted reliability ratings, and more.
For 2017, the Corvette adds a new Grand Sport model to its lineup. The Corvette's last full redesign was in 2014, and it has seen few major changes since. As a result, this overview uses applicable research and reviews from the 2014 through 2017 model years.

How Much Does the Chevrolet Corvette Cost?
The 2017 Chevy Corvette starts at $55,450, which puts it somewhere in the middle of luxury sports cars. It's much more expensive than the standard versions of mainstream muscle cars like the Ford Mustang, Dodge Challenger, and Chevy Camaro, but all of those cars have performance versions that rival the Corvette's price and power. For example, the Camaro ZL1 starts at $61,140 and shares its engine with the highest-performance Corvette. You can get the Camaro SS, though, for only $36,905. That model has the same engine as the base Corvette.
The base model of the current Corvette generation is designated as the Stingray – an homage to one of the most legendary versions of the car. There are two additional models, the Corvette Grand Sport ($65,450) and the Corvette Z06 ($79,450). The main difference between models is performance, with standard features essentially remaining the same across the lineup. Each model is available in three different trims that add more features. The Stingray and Grand Coupe each have a 6.2-liter V8 engine, while the Z06 has a supercharged 6.2-liter V8. Additional performance upgrades to the Grand Coupe and Z06 include a limited-slip differential, an adaptive suspension, upgraded wheels and brakes, and more aggressive designs.
All Corvettes come with rear-wheel drive and a seven-speed manual transmission, and you can substitute an eight-speed automatic paddle-shift transmission for $1,725. Each model is also available in a convertible version, which will cost you $4,000 on top of the base price.

Chevrolet Corvette Versus the Competition
Which Is Better: Chevrolet Corvette or Chevrolet Camaro?
We sort the Chevrolet Camaro into a different class of sports cars, mainly due to its relatively low starting price of $25,905. Don't let the lower cost fool you, though; in the right trim, this car can easily hold its own against its Chevy stablemate. Skip past all the entry-level models and focus on the high-performance Camaros. The Camaro SS, starting at $36,905, shares the 455-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 found in the base Corvette. That price is a big difference from the Corvette's price tag of over $55,000 for the same muscle under the hood. You can also compare the Camaro ZL1 to the Corvette Z06, both of which have a 650-horsepower supercharged V8. With that engine, the ZL1 is the most powerful Camaro to date. You'll get almost the same thrilling performance as in the Corvette Z06, and you can upgrade the SS and ZL1 with extra goodies like an adaptive suspension, a performance exhaust, and a performance data recorder. That said, the Corvette still has the leg up as the better-driving car because it's lighter and more aerodynamic. Meanwhile, as formidable as the Camaro is in its performance versions, it is still a beefy four-seat car. However, that last part may be a reason to consider the Camaro over the Corvette: You can get most of what makes the Corvette great, but you'll still be able to shuttle the kids to their activities (and enjoy the looks you'll get from other parents). In short, the Corvette is the clear winner if you have the cash and you value performance over all else. If you're on a tighter budget, you can get a comparable beast of a sports car for about $18,500 less than the Corvette.
Which Is Better: Chevrolet Corvette or Dodge Viper?
Dodge doesn't sell a lot of Vipers. In fact, 2017 is scheduled to be the last year of production for the sports car that has adorned many bedroom wall posters over the last 25 years. Its main appeal is as a pure, fast, and loud driving machine. But with an eye-popping price tag of nearly $90,000, it's incredibly hard to recommend or justify it as a purchase. Not only is the Corvette a better value than the Viper, it's also an all-around better car. Sure, the Viper comes with an 8.4-liter V10 engine that makes 645 horsepower, but what good is it if you can't use it? Due to its engine, the Viper is notorious for being hard to control – even in experienced hands. The Corvette, in comparison, boasts a standard 455 horsepower that's plenty capable of rocketing you off the line. If you still have an itch for more power, you can upgrade to the Z06 and its 650 horsepower, which you'll likely still find more manageable than the Viper.
The Viper is a poor choice for a daily driver because of its harsh ride quality and uncomfortable interior. The Corvette stays smooth in most driving situations and boasts upscale materials and design in its cabin. If you have exorbitant amounts of money to spend and want something that will really turn heads, then jump at your last chance to own a brand-new Viper. Otherwise, the Corvette is the clear choice.
Which Is Better: Chevrolet Corvette or Porsche Cayman?
You may not have been cross-shopping the Corvette against the Porsche Cayman, but you should be. It's a close matchup when looking at price, performance, and quality. If your main consideration is off-the-line power, then you'll want the Corvette. It comes with a standard V8 that makes 455 horsepower or an optional supercharged V8 that puts 650 horsepower to the wheels. The Cayman can't hold a candle to that, as its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine is only good for 300 horsepower. A boosted version of that engine in the higher trim makes 350 horsepower. Specs alone don't tell the full story, however. The Cayman still has plenty of muscle and equally impressive handling through turns. Both cars feature precise and effortless steering, with optional adaptive suspensions. If anything, the Cayman may exhibit better balance and control, thanks to its midengine layout and excellent weight distribution. In the cabin, the Cayman is not as impressive as you might expect from a Porsche. Its design and quality draws mixed reviews, while the Corvette generally garners a little more praise. The Cayman is also one of the closest competitors to the Corvette in price. You'll pay $53,900 for a standard Cayman, in contrast to $55,450 for the 'Vette. The Cayman S starts a $66,300, which is in line with the Corvette's middle trim. But be warned: Adding options and extras to the Cayman can get pricey quickly.
You can't go wrong with either car, and your choice may focus more on looks: the sleeker European sculpting of the Cayman or the more muscular styling of the Corvette.

Corvette Interior
How Many People Does the Corvette Seat?
Drop the kids off with a sitter, because this quintessential American sports car only seats two. The Corvette's seats are incredibly supportive and come ready to hold you tight during spirited rides. Chevy offers optional power lumbar and side bolster adjustments, in addition to standard eight-way power adjustments, so there are plenty of ways for you to find a comfortable driving position. There are also available sport seats that impart more of a racecar feel and keep you snug through corners.
There are few true sports cars that have more than two seats, but if you find yourself wanting a performance machine with a back seat, then the Chevrolet Camaro will be one of your limited choices. Sure, it's probably best suited for children, but at least you can tell your spouse or significant other that you'll have room to drive the kids around.
Corvette Interior Quality
Any way you slice it, $55,000-plus is a lot for a car. A lot of that goes toward the "sport" in sports car, but this is a luxury class, too. With that in mind, the 2017 Corvette generally impresses with its interior quality, providing upscale accoutrements like standard leather seating, aluminum trim, and carbon fiber accents. Some reviewers think the materials aren't as nice as those in similarly priced competitors, and others note the cabin can be rickety at times. Still, the Corvette stands out in its class.
Corvette Cargo Space
Cargo space in the 2017 Corvette is an admirable 15 cubic feet. Aided by a hatchback-style liftgate, that amount is more akin to a midsize sedan than a two-seat sports car. You'll be able to easily fit two golf bags, a few suitcases, or armfuls of grocery or shopping bags. Trunk space in the convertible is still good, at 10 cubic feet.
You may not think of the Dodge Viper as a practical car, but it too offers decent trunk space at 14.7 cubic feet. Conversely, you'll get much less space in the Chevrolet Camaro, likely because of the back seats. There is just 9.1 cubic feet in coupes, and convertibles only have 7.3 cubic feet.
You'll have to split up your stuff if you go with the Porsche Cayman, since its midengine layout results in it having two trunks. The front trunk has 5.3 cubic feet of space, and the rear trunk has 9.7 cubic feet. Therefore, the car has the same total volume as the Corvette, but it's not as utilitarian because of that split.
Corvette Infotainment, Bluetooth, and Navigation
The Corvette's cabin is laid out in an almost cockpitlike fashion, putting all its focus on the driver. Controls and gauges are easy to see and reach. Part of the instrument cluster is a bright and crisp 8-inch digital screen that displays the tachometer and other information. You can also spring for an available head-up display so you won't have to take your eyes off the road to glance at vital information.
The Corvette also comes standard with Chevy's MyLink infotainment system, which is housed in an 8-inch touch screen on the easy-to-reach center stack. This interface can be clunky and slow to respond to your commands, though, so your best bet may be to use the standard Android Auto or Apple CarPlay setups instead. Both allow you to connect your smartphone to the car to access familiar functions like apps, media, contacts, or messaging on the infotainment touch screen. It also mimics the layout of your phone, with icons that you're used to seeing every day. For more information, read What Is Apple CarPlay? and What Is Android Auto? Then, see the Best Cars With Apple CarPlay and Best Cars With Android Auto.
The same MyLink system is found in the Chevrolet Camaro. You'll also only get a 7-inch screen in the Camaro, but you can upgrade to the 8-inch display. Other rivals earn praise for their infotainment setups: The fully redesigned Cayman gets the newest iteration of Porsche's technology, and it features Apple CarPlay along with other easy-to-use functions and incredibly detailed optional navigation. The Dodge Viper sports the Uconnect interface, which is found in many Dodge, Chrysler, and Jeep vehicles. It has a large 8.4-inch touch screen, along with a straightforward layout and responsive processing times.
A highlight of the Corvette is the optional performance data recorder. Running through the infotainment screen, this feature captures vital statistics like speed, RPM, g-forces, and track times, and it can even record audio and video of your drives. You'll get these same capabilities in the high-performance Camaros.
Corvette Performance
Corvette Engine: Lives Up to the Hype
The Corvette's performance can be summed up quickly: this thing can fly. That is no surprise considering its standard 455-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine. A seven-speed manual transmission is standard, and downshifts come perfectly rev-matched thanks to Chevy's Active Rev Matching technology. You can also opt for an eight-speed automatic transmission that functions impressively. The automatic transmission comes with paddle shifters that impart some feeling of additional control, but with that much muscle under the hood, the clear choice is to fully control it yourself with the manual. The optional automatic transmission and performance exhaust increase horsepower to 460, however. The standard Corvette Stingray can launch from zero to 60 mph in as little as 3.7 seconds, thanks in part to its 465 pound-feet of torque.
In "Jaws," Captain Brody suggests (or warns), "You're gonna need a bigger boat." Some engineer at General Motors may have had a similar thought when GM developed the engine that powers the Corvette's top model, the Z06. At 650 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, this supercharged 6.2-liter V8 rockets the Corvette to 60 mph in under 3 seconds. Depending on how you spend most of your time driving, though, that muscle may prove to be more of a curse than a gift. For everyday use, the Corvette's base engine is much more manageable, and you shouldn't yearn for more power.
In standard form, the Chevrolet Camaro can't hold a candle to its more boisterous brother, but it does benefit from sharing the Corvette's engines in its two high-performance trims. If you're pitting the Camaro against the Corvette, these are the models you'll want to consider; the Camaro SS has the same 455-horsepower engine as the base Corvette, while the Camaro ZL1 shares the powertrain of the Z06 Corvette. The Z06 has two quicker-shifting transmissions and weighs less than the ZL1, but the differences aren't that noticeable.
The Porsche Cayman receives a hearty midcycle refresh for 2017, and its engine lineup is now down to two, but both have increased power. At either 300 or 350 horsepower, you'll still move quickly off the line and have plenty of oomph to get around. On the opposite side of the insanity spectrum is the Dodge Viper, long known for being a machine that focuses on face-melting speed and power. From an 8.4-liter V10 engine comes 645 standard horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque. Dodge claims that's the most torque of any naturally aspirated engine available.
Corvette Gas Mileage: Thirsty, Thirsty, Thirsty
The standard Corvette gets pretty meager gas mileage, even for a powerful sports car, at only 16 mpg in the city and 25 mpg on the highway. With the optional eight-speed automatic, those estimates shift slightly to 15 mpg in the city and 26 on the highway. The supercharged engine in the Z06, though, fares even worse. You'll get 15/22 mpg city/highway with the manual transmission and 13/23 mpg city/highway with the automatic.
Since higher-performance Camaros share engines with the Corvette, you can expect similar fuel economy. The standard Camaro SS gets 16 mpg in the city and 25 on the highway, while the ZL1 returns 14/29 mpg city/highway. The Porsche Cayman boasts a smaller standard engine than its American rivals (a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder), and it can get up to 21/28 mpg. And if you plan on buying a Dodge Viper, you may want to consider investing in a gas station too, since you'll only get 12/19 mpg city/highway.
Corvette Ride and Handling: Grip It and Rip It
What's under the hood is certainly a big reason why the 2017 Corvette gets incredibly high performance scores from us, but it's far from the only reason. The other aspect is how it drives. Even in its standard configuration, the Stingray is a corner-carving, well-balanced, athletic machine. Steering is extremely accurate. Around curves, the Corvette sticks to the pavement, and the optional Magnetic Ride Control system keeps you level with minimal body roll. Two higher-performance trims (the Grand Sport and Z06) boast upgraded suspensions, brakes, and limited-slip differentials so you'll always feel in complete control.
The Corvette doesn't sacrifice everyday appeal at the expense of performance, though. Its ride quality is comfortable enough for long highway cruises and forgiving enough for less-than-perfect pavement around town.
Of all the cars in the class that most closely challenge the Corvette's overall performance, three of them sport a Porsche badge. With a refresh for the 2017 model, the Cayman is several hundred pounds lighter and receives quicker and tighter steering because it utilizes parts from its more powerful stablemate, the 911 Turbo. Porsche also offers an optional adaptive suspension that automatically lowers the car and stiffens the dampers for more finely tuned handling.
The Chevrolet Camaro's performance models can be equipped with the same Magnetic Ride Control system as the Corvette, and even without it the Camaro drives nimbly. When it comes to the Dodge Viper's performance, its engine power is about the only positive. Heavy steering makes it hard to maneuver at low speeds, and once you get up to speed, all that power turns the Viper into an unwieldy bullet that takes a good amount of skill to control. Calling the Viper's ride harsh would be an understatement, so it's far from your best bet as a daily driver.
Corvette Reliability
Is the Chevrolet Corvette Reliable?
According to J.D. Power and Associates, the 2017 Corvette gets a three out of five rating for predicted reliability. That means it's about average among all cars on the road. The Chevy Camaro gets the same rating, while the Porsche Cayman clocks in better at four out of five. The Dodge Viper receives a below-average 2.5 rating.
Chevrolet Corvette Warranty
Chevrolet backs the 2017 Corvette with a three-year/36,000-mile basic warranty and a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. The Viper and Camaro both come with the same coverage, as it's common for mainstream brands to offer two warranties. Luxury brands like Porsche, however, usually offer only a basic warranty, such as the four-year/50,000-mile warranty on the Cayman.
Corvette Safety
Corvette Crash Test Results
The 2017 Chevrolet Corvette hasn't undergone crash testing by any independent organization, but that's a common practice for luxury and/or sports cars. The Dodge Viper and Porsche Cayman also haven't been evaluated. By contrast, the Chevrolet Camaro receives a five-star overall rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, with four out of five stars in the frontal crash test. The Camaro also earns a rating of Good (the highest score possible) from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety in four out of five individual tests.
Corvette Safety Features
The only standard driver assistance feature in the Corvette is a rearview camera, but luxury sports cars aren't known for their technological prowess. You can get an optional head-up display to keep your eyes on the road instead of on the dashboard or gauge cluster, as well as a front-view camera system that keeps eyes on the ground directly in front of you.
Rivals like the Porsche Cayman and Chevrolet Camaro offer more optional features that aim to keep you safe and prevent crashes. In the Camaro, you can get rear parking sensors, blind spot monitoring (which alerts you to cars approaching on your side as you make a lane change), and rear cross traffic alert (which detects cars moving behind you when you're in reverse).
With the Cayman, you can also opt for blind spot monitoring, as well as adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, and automatic braking. These features work to maintain a set speed between you and the car in front of you, automatically accelerating or braking in tandem with the car ahead. If the car detects an imminent collision, it will give you an audible warning to brake. If you don't respond, the car will begin braking by itself to mitigate the collision.
Which Chevrolet Corvette Model Is Right for Me?
The 2017 Chevrolet Corvette comes in three main models: Stingray, Grand Sport, and Z06. Each of those configurations is available in three trim levels (1LT/Z, 2 LT/Z, 3LT/Z) that add additional features, and the Stingray has an optional Performance package available with each trim. All Corvettes come with rear-wheel drive and a seven-speed manual transmission, and you can add an eight-speed automatic paddle shift transmission. Each model is also available in a convertible version.
Stingray and Grand Sport Corvettes each have a 6.2-liter V8 engine, while the Z06 has a supercharged 6.2-liter V8.
With a handful of models and several additional trim levels per model, the Corvette can be modified in dozens of different ways to suit your priorities or needs. For those who need everyday use out of the car, the standard Stingray will probably be enough. It has more than enough performance for the streets, and its price point makes it the best value as well. If you want to enhance the Stingray's performance but don't want to commit to the Grand Sport or Z06, which is basically a supercar, there is a Z51 Performance package available with any of the three trims. It adds a limited-slip differential and upgrades the wheels and brakes.
The base 2017 Corvette is the Stingray. It starts at $55,450. Standard features include dual-zone automatic climate control, removable roof panels, eight-way power-adjustable front seats, leather upholstery, a nine-speaker Bose audio system, satellite radio, Bluetooth, a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hot spot, proximity-key entry, push-button start, a rearview camera, the MyLink infotainment system with an 8-inch touch-screen display, an 8-inch digital instrument display, Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay.
Standard features are essentially the same across the Stingray, Grand Sport, and Z06 models. Optional trim levels contain most of the same features regardless of the model as well. The 2LT/Z trim includes heated and ventilated seats, additional power seat adjustments, a front curb-view camera, a 10-speaker Bose premium audio system, a color head-up display, and colored console and door panels. The 3LT/Z trim adds a custom Leather Wrapped Interior package, suede interior trim, a performance data recorder, Nappa leather seats, and navigation.
Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport
New for 2017 is the Corvette Grand Sport, which starts at $65,450. It has the same engine as the base model, with an additional 5 horsepower provided by a performance exhaust. You'll also get a limited-slip differential, standard Magnetic Ride Control, upgraded wheels and brakes, and a sport-focused aerodynamic design.
The big kahuna of the Corvette's lineup is the $79,450 Z06. With a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine under the hood, it also includes the performance upgrades of the Grand Sport. For about $8,000, you can add the Z07 Performance package to either the Grand Sport or the Z06, which enhances the suspension and adds sport tires and larger, more powerful brakes.
Who Makes the Chevrolet Corvette?
The Corvette is manufactured by Chevrolet, which is a division of the American brand General Motors. Since 1981, the Corvette has been produced exclusively in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The Corvette debuted in 1953 and is now in its seventh generation. For more information, check out Chevrolet Corvette History.

Don't just take our word for it. Check out comments from some of the reviews that drive our rankings and analysis.
- "The 2017 Chevrolet Corvette is a unique slice of Americana that can compete on the world stage. Performance is stunning, and interior appointments have improved significantly for the current C7 generation." -- Edmunds
- "For over six decades the Chevrolet Corvette has attracted driving enthusiasts and automotive admirers alike with its power, performance and style, all at a price that, with some effort, can turn a dream into a reality. The 2017 Corvette coupe and convertible remain all those things and more. Reborn and reinvigorated three years ago for its seventh generation, the Corvette proudly waves the flag as America's premium sports car. That it can compete with Porsches and Aston Martins itself is impressive. More so is the price at which it does. For around $56,000, the Corvette is the rare performance car that's a value. Top-line Z06 performance models supercharge that manifesto with 650 horsepower, while the new Grand Sport highlights even sharper handling than the standard Stingray." -- Kelley Blue Book
- " The Corvette Grand Sport is an excellent value. If you're looking for an affordable and balanced sports car, this is it." -- CNET

Trail of the Sheik -- A special report; On Trial: An Islamic Cleric Battles Secularism
Published: January 8, 1995
(Page 3 of 3)
Mr. Abdel Rahman traveled at least twice to Pakistan and Afghanistan to urge on the anti-Soviet Arab fighters. In Pakistan he is reported to have lived outside the border town of Peshawar, where most of the anti-Soviet guerrilla groups were based, staying at the home of Mohammed Islambouli, an Arab-Afghan who was the brother of the man who organized the army faction that actually carried out the Sadat assassination. According to Mr. Hasaballah, Mr. Abdel Rahman's lawyer, the cleric sent two of his own sons to fight in Afghanistan.
But even as he played an active role in the war in Afghanistan, Mr. Abdel Rahman was running into renewed trouble back in Fayoum. The Egyptian Government, alarmed at the rise of violence by Islamic fundamentalists, began to crack down, and Mr. Abdel Rahman was one of its targets. Fayoum has one of Egypt's largest Christian communities, and Mr. Omar Abdel Rahman, according to Egyptian biographers of the sheik, issued a fatwa -- a religious order -- to his followers that justified the killing of Christians.
Mr. Hasaballah denies that Mr. Abdel Rahman ever approved acts of violence against Christians, but in Fayoum, there were several Muslim attacks in which Christian shops were burned down by people whom some residents, including Dr. Suleyman, identified as Mr. Abdel Rahman's followers.
In 1989, Mr. Abdel Rahman was arrested and put on trial along with 48 other defendants after a riot at El Shohada Mosque in Fayoum, where he was preaching during regular Friday prayers. The Government argued that Mr. Abdel Rahman had instigated the riot, but witnesses testified that the police had provoked the disturbance, bursting into the mosque during prayers, guns firing.
For much of the time that he was in Fayoum, Mr. Abdel Rahman lived under virtual house arrest. The Egyptian Association for Human Rights visited his home in December 1989 and found it under what one association member, interviewed in Cairo, called a state of siege.
"He used to go out under guard," said Adel el-Lamouni, Mr. Abdel Rahman's lawyer in Fayoum. "His son would guide him to the mosque for Friday prayers, but whenever he went, he would be followed by two cars full of policemen." The Fugitive Legendary Escape From Egypt
Early in 1990, Mr. Abdel Rahman made what has become, among his supporters in Fayoum, a legendary escape. One man said that the cleric was smuggled past his guards in a washing machine that was being taken out of his home. Another account, told by a resident in the neighboring village of Fedemin, was that the cleric left the house after another man, dressed up to look like the sheik, drew Mr. Abdel Rahman's usual guards away from their posts.
In any case, Mr. Abdel Rahman tried to leave the country on a pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia. Egyptian journalists reported that he was detained at passport control at the Cairo International Airport until after the plane to Saudi Arabia had left. Barred from leaving the airport, he went to the Sudan. There, even though he was on a list of suspected terrorists barred from entry to the United States, he was given a visa at the United States Embassy and, after a trip to Pakistan, he arrived in New York in July 1990.
In the United States, he quickly attracted a following at storefront mosques in Brooklyn and Jersey City, and he traveled to other American cities and to Canada making speeches and calling for Islam to prevail over its enemies.
Prosecutors, tracing Mr. Abdel Rahman's movements and speeches since his arrival in the United States, argue that, from the beginning, he was the intellectual leader of a "Jihad Organization" dedicated to "punishing the United States for its perceived status as leader of the 'infidel' order to be toppled, and for its support of Israel and Egypt."
The Government's argument is that a large number of discrete crimes, seen as isolated incidents when they occurred, were actually part of a wider conspiracy. Several months after Mr. Abdel Rahman's arrival in New York, Rabbi Meir Kahane, the leader of the radical Jewish Defense League, was killed, supposedly by one of the cleric's followers, El Sayyid A. Nosair, who is among the men who will go on trial this week. Three years later, a bomb went off in the underground garage of the World Trade Center, killing six people. Three of the men convicted in that attack are known to have attended Mr. Abdel Rahman's sermons.
Prosecutors say that Mr. Abdel Rahman is linked to both of these crimes, as well as to the later plans, foiled by law enforcement, to bomb several New York City landmarks. As evidence, they cite speeches he made in Detroit and other cities in which he urged his followers to "conquer the land of the infidels to purify it."
The defense, in a motion to dismiss the charges against Mr. Abdel Rahman, who is now in prison and suffering from diabetes, responded this way: "At face value the allegations add up to no evidence of criminal conduct by Dr. Abdel Rahman even with government innuendoand unsupportable characterizations of tape recorded statements."

He spoke from his cell during his 1981 trial in Cairo. (Associated Press); Mr. Rahman leaving his home in Jersey City in 1993, when he was being investigated as part of a suspected bombing ring. He and 11 others are to go on trial this week. (Dith Pran/The New York Times) (pg. 28) Chart: "IN HIS OWN WORDS: Omar Abdel Rahman's Pronouncements" The trial of Omar Abdel Rahman centers on charges that he and 11 others planned several criminal actions, including plotting to bomb the United Nations Building and other landmarks and to assassinate public figures from Assemblyman Dov Hikind of New York State to President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt. Among the men on trial will be El Sayyid A. Nosair, who was acquitted in 1991 in the murder of Rabbi Meir Kahane. That killing was once seen as an isolated crime, but is now included in the current case as part of an overall conspiracy, whose "intellectual leader," prosecutors maintain, was Mr. Abdel Rahman. The main items of evidence against the defendants include conversations secretly recorded by an informer, as well as the materials discovered by the police in a Brooklyn safe house where, investigators say, several of the defendants were building bombs. One of the challenges the Government faces is proving that Mr. Abdel Rahman's often inflammatory pronouncements are meant to inspire violence against the United States. Here are quotations from Mr. Abdel Rahman's writings, some of which the Government is using to supports its case that he plotted violence. FROM HIS 1985 AUTOBIOGRAPHY "The laws of God have been usurped by Crusaders' laws. The hand of a thief is not cut off, the drinker of liquor is not whipped, the adulterer is not stoned. Islamic holy law should be followed to the letter." FROM A TAPED SERMON "Hit hard and kill the enemies of God in every spot to rid it of the descendants of apes and pigs fed at the tables of Zionism, communism and imperialism." FROM THE SADAT ASSASSINATION TRIAL "Our duty to God is more binding than our duty to the president of the Republic. We owe God obedience and no obedience is owed to him who disobeys God." FROM AN INTERVIEW WITH A FOLLOWER "We have to be terrorists. . . . The Great Allah said, "Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into the enemies of Allah."

Last week, thousands of National Education Association (NEA) teacher representatives gathered in Washington, D.C. to discuss union policies and activities at their annual meeting. Among the many New Business Items (NBIs) up for discussion was a proposal for the NEA to survey state and local teacher evaluation systems and to publish a report for use in advocating against the use of student's achievement scores in these systems. It is unclear whether the NBI will result in concrete action by the NEA. Either way, the proposal's contribution to the ongoing debate around the use of student outcomes in ..

I met Karina Seljak and her sister Sammy in 2015. At the time, the two sisters were embarking on a journey through India to learn about production and how waste is used as a resource, and to see "makers as an empowered and celebrated part of a transparent supply chain."
They wanted to come visit our operations in Assam to witness this in action, and we have a hard time saying no to babes with a mission like that. So myself and our partners in Assam happily hosted the Seljak sisters in the oppressive June heat, and got to know the little seed of an idea that would grow into the Seljak Brand – high quality Merino wool blankets made from factory floor waste.
Fast forward two years, and the Seljak Brand is a living breathing thing, growing in fabulous new directions. After traveling India, the sisters headed back to Tasmania where they'd partially developed a product with a local wool mill. The result is something beautiful, that's made to be used, and made to last.
This is the core of the Seljak's mission –
"Waste is piling up really really fast. Businesses don't know what to do with it and consumers don't know what to do about it. In so many ways there is this silent fashion and textiles disaster some people are aware of, and most people aren't. So we wanted to find a way to tell this story. We are not just a producer of blankets. That's just the way we've been able to bring it to life."
And telling this story through the Seljak Brand is opening up a whole new way to engage in sustainable business – consulting with other businesses to evaluate their waste streams and find innovative manufacturing solutions.
"In the one year that we've been trading, we've actually had so many businesses coming to us with their textile waste, and say "can you use this in your blankets?"
Karina is sober about the reality – the Seljak brand can't solve Australia's textile waste problem with their blankets alone. But, there is an opportunity to assist businesses: "and they are absolutely willing to innovate - in fact they're hungry to."
The Seljak brand is not only a manifestation of the sisters' values, it neatly reflects their design approach as well. Karina's background is in fashion, so it is not surprising she has pretty articulate views on design.
"Ever since I worked in a commercial kitchen making cocktail syrups - I've started dressing in a more utilitarian way. I wear things that I can move in easily and comfortably, but that also work wear as an inspiration. The onesies tailors used to wear, or the outwear that you see in construction."
Movement and utility are a big inspiration for our Rise Collection, which gets us chatting about the pieces Karina has styled for us – the Mahai waistcoat and Francis Jacket.
"As someone who loves utility, (the Mihai) makes me think about painters' coats, and denim, and - it's got a get-shit-done kind of vibe which is really cool"
"The other thing that has changed in my personal style is that I live at Bondi. Bondi has this wonderful crazy glam aspect to it. But it also really attracts lovers of the land. Waves crashing on this beautiful sandstone rock and the sea breeze. It has a really interesting style, and over the last few years it's rubbed off on me a little bit. I wouldn't usually glam up in my neighbourhood streets like that, but I just really felt like it when I was playing with these pieces"
Utility meets glam and skin: ready for the beach at any moment. We probably couldn't find a more awesome endorsement the versatility of the Rise collection if we tried.
I ask Karina about how her style converges with her ethics as a consumer.
"My biggest thing is longevity when I buy something - how often am I going to use it, how long will I have it for? Simple day to day questions - can I wear this during the day, and at night?"
I am nodding in wild agreement, as making pieces that transition and that survive the trend-mill are a big part of our design process.
"The other thing is material itself. I really love natural fibres. The way they look and drape, and the way they breath. What your clothes are made from, and of course who they're made by is such an overwhelming thing to consider. But there are a lot of interesting brands coming along."
Check, Check, and check!
And moving into this space as a maker, and as a brand, has unexpected dividends – doing it as a woman is less of an uphill battle. I explain that part of the interview series is to capture what challenges women are facing in their creative sphere, and how they rise above.
Reflecting on it, Karina finds things have changed since she started the Seljak Brand.
"I remember when I was in Brooklyn working in the craft syrups industry - it was really obvious the way that my company would be received by manufacturers.
Karina thinks being a boss certainly helps –
"Just being like - I started this and I'm not answering to anyone one"
But since the Seljak brand was born, the sisters have found themselves engaging lots of women – as photographers, designers –
"It wasn't really a strategy that we explicitly expressed, but at some point we took a step back and saw that we were getting so many women involved with this project."
And other people are seeing that in their brand too – they really highlight the role of women as leaders in the industry.
"But now that I have realised that I personally want to do more - I absolutely want to highlight women and amplify them. The time is now."
You can check out the Seljak Brand here.

Berlinale rolls out the red carpet
"Courage, confidence and a great deal of humour," said Berlinale Director Dieter Kosslick, are the hallmark of the 67th Berlin International Film Festival. In the German capital, he presented the jury and the Berlinale films. As of February 9, 399 films will be screened as part of Europe's largest international film festival, including 22 world premieres.
Enlarge image Dieter Kosslick, the director of the International Film Festival in Berlin, at a press conference (© picture alliance / Soeren Stache) Germany's capital city will once again show itself from its best side. From February 9 to 19, a total of 399 films will be screened as part of the Berlinale. 24 of them are part of the Competition, with 18 competing for the Golden and Silver Bears. Germany is represented with a total of 74 films – three of which are part of the Competition. The Berlinale will open with the film "Django", a biography of the legendary jazz musician Django Reinhardt.
"It is going to be another glamorous Berlinale," announced Festival Director Dieter Kosslick. This year, the Berlinale will focus mainly on the current state of society, he stressed. The programme as a whole is, however, "reconciliatory and life-affirming" promised the Festival Director. The Berlin International Film Festival is Europe's largest, and attracts a larger crowd than any other event of this sort anywhere in the world.
Enlarge image Golden Bears are rewarded to the best films (© dpa) Members of the jury include the German actress Julia Jentsch, the Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson, the American actress Maggie Gyllenhaal, and the Mexican actor and director Diego Luna.
The international jury is chaired by the Dutch director and screenwriter Paul Verhoeven. At the end of the Berlinale the jury will decide on the winners of the Golden and Silver Bears.
German Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media Monika Grütters this year contributed 7.2 million Euro to the Berlinale. Various film promotion programmes have also helped enrich the quality and diversity of Germany's film landscape.

By: Jason Woosey
Johannesburg - It's become quite normal for crossover SUVs in the so-called Rav4 class to look more pretty than butch and I really don't think that any of them do the pretty thing better than Renault's new Kadjar. Its designers seem to have found just the right blend of bold, curvaceous and sophisticated; while the striking Flame Red exterior paint hue worn by our test unit is a must-have that's so appetising you'll almost want to lick it.
But is there more to the Kadjar than just good looks? Like its rivals, this crossover is not trying to be an offroader and in fact just one in the six-model range even has all-wheel-drive.
This Renault shares its platform, and much of its mechanical make-up, with the Nissan Qashqai and X-Trail, but has completely unique sheet metal and interior fittings so you would never really know they were related. In terms of size, it's actually closer to the Qashqai, sharing its 2646mm wheelbase but being marginally longer and offering a slightly bigger boot (572 litres versus 430).
Though the Renault is smaller than seemingly segment-stretching rivals such as the Ford Kuga and Toyota Rav4 and can't quite match them for stretching space, the Kadjar still offers ample legroom and stashing space for an average family.
Engine needs to be worked
On test here is the 1.2-litre TCe automatic, a recent addition to the range featuring Renault's EDC dual-clutch gearbox. As with the manual model, the Kadjar EDC is fitted with a more powerful version of the 1.2 turbopetrol also found in the Qashqai, producing 96kW and 205Nm, versus 85kW/190Nm.
The powertrain is a touch laggy off the mark, and though you might have a few nervous seconds if you're risking crossing a busy avenue, you're not going to notice the lag in everyday driving situations or even while taking gaps in traffic. Once on the boil the engine feels sprightly enough for fast paced traffic and while I wouldn't go quite as far as calling it underpowered, it does need to be worked a bit at highway velocities and drivers will wish for a few extra ponies when pulling into the fast lane on a hill or while overtaking.
It's not as economical as it could be either, with our car recording 9.3 litres per 100km in a mixture of town and highway driving.
The seven-speed auto-shifter is, in all fairness, not quite as pin-sharp as VW's DSG, but it does the job smoothly enough and with very little in the way of unwanted hunting. The ride quality proved comfortable and the Kadjar also felt reassuringly stable considering its raised ride height. Overall Renault has come up with a decent balance between ride and handling, especially considering this vehicle sports a rather basic torsion-beam rear-suspension design.
High-tech cabin vibes
All in all it's rather comfortable to drive and the cabin is a pleasant enough place to pass time. Sure, you might say that the interior's design is not quite as exciting as the vehicle's exterior and that it's possibly a touch sombre, but the surfaces are of a good quality and the digital instrument cluster, with its bright background colours, and the 18cm central touchscreen infotainment system together bring some high-tech vibes into the cockpit.
Both screens are customisable, and drivers can add widgets to the home page of the central touchscreen. The system also houses the navigation system and you can even use it to view photos and videos when the vehicle is stationary, although I really can't see why you'd want or need to when there are so many decent tablets and laptops floating around in this world.
In addition to the aforementioned infotainment hub, the Dynamique trim level comes with automatic dual-zone climate control, auto lights and wipers, a hands-free key card, front and rear park-distance control and cruise control. You'll have to pay extra for leather seats and other options include a panoramic fixed sunroof, semi-autonomous parking system with rear camera and blind-spot warning.
There is a lot to like about La Régie's most direct Rav4 rival to date, and in some ways it feels like the most modern contender in this segment, with its voluptuous styling and high-tech interior. It's also one of the few to offer turbopetrol power at the lower end of the segment, although that doesn't necessarily translate into effortless performance and on top of that the Kadjar is a bit more expensive than its natural enemies. At R399 900 it commands a near-R40 000 premium over its similarly-appointed Qashqai cousin.
