The Masters of Fine Arts in Visual Arts offers students the opportunity to explore art history, theory and criticism in depth along with a hands-on creative production. This combination of theoretical study with production experience gives students a unique understanding of how art creates meaning.
For a list of admission requirements to the MFA program, see Graduate Program - MFA in the Admission section of this Catalog.
TUITIONFall, spring and summer semesters - $500 (per semester hour)
The MFA degree is a low-residency, 60-unit plan of study emphasizing visual art and the creative process of generating new works that are grounded in both classical and contemporary genres. The MFA at JU nurtures the development of more rigorous and refined relationships between three aspects of creative production: stimulus, practice and analysis are seen as mutually interdependent forces that continually shape artistic experimentation and response.
Studio or Related Areas
Other Studies in Visual Art
The Master of Fine Arts program requires the equivalent of at least two (2) years of full-time graduate study, with a minimum of 60 semester credit hours. Over 50% of the curriculum (32 credits) will be delivered during the onsite residency program during non-traditional semester and less than 50% of the curriculum (28 credits) will be delivered in a hybrid format using online study. This two-year degree program would consist each year of a six-week Summer Intensive, a one-week individual residency to work with undergraduate students in art at JU, and two (2) semesters of hybrid/distance instruction.
Transfer of Credit - Transfer of Credit will not be allowed in the graduate curriculum.
Policies - Policies are clearly published on the program and University web sites and Academic Catalog.
Transcript Evidence - Consistent with graduation requirements and verified by the University registrar prior to the degree being granted from the program.
Thesis Requirement - The course ART 695. Research-Based Project/Thesis Continuous Enrollment (1 credit), will be required of candidates who do not pass ART 675 to assure the Thesis requirement is met. This course description is as follows: Prerequisite ART 675. This course is Pass/Fail. May be repeated for credit. Students must enroll in ART 695 each subsequent semester until the completion of the research-based project/thesis. Faculty will periodically review individual student's progress in meeting course goals and completing the project/thesis. Upon completion of the project/thesis, faculty will approve the final paper and arrange for final paper presentation sessions. Students are expected to complete all objectives for ART 675 and finalize their projects for committee approval prior to their presentations.
Written and Oral Defense Qualifying Examination - The graduate student will select his/her exam committee and the written comprehensive examination will be distributed and evaluated through that committee. The committee may elect to have the MFA candidate complete an oral defense of the exam results. This exam will substantiate the candidate's knowledge of the curriculum.
Thesis Project - During the Summer II intensive the student submits a 5-15 page proposal for the final thesis project to be approved by the thesis committee. The final project could take the form of a exhibition or some other performance event in which the students' research is made evident. For example, students may undertake to create site-specific installation, organize opportunities for interactive performance with distinct groups of performers, produce film to be viewed on DVD. Whatever the final form, the project must demonstrate a thorough investigation and committed execution of a defined aesthetic concern. The final project includes a written component to be completed as a requirement of the thesis. This document, 20-40 pages in length, outlines the aesthetic focus of the student's research and provides a historical and philosophical contextualization for the project.
A graduate student will be placed on Academic Probation at the conclusion of any semester in which the student's cumulative GPA is less than a 3.0(B). The student has the following one semester (or two courses) to raise the cumulative GPA to a 3.0. A graduate student will be dismissed from the program if the student does not raise the cumulative GPA to a 3.0 within one semester (or two courses) of being placed on Academic Probation. A graduate student placed on Academic Probation more than one time during the program will be dismissed from the program. A graduate student earning one grade of "F" in any graduate course will be dismissed from the program.

My name is Shannon Devroy and I grew up watching Wrestling with my grandpa and have loved it ever since. I never thought I would meet anyone who loved it as much as I did until I met Ryan. He was a bigger fan then myself I learned some things from him. We met in February of 2008 and shortly after fell in love. We were planning on getting married in a few months. We fell in love watching it together, we would make out during the commercials because neither of us wanted to miss a second of it. It was the best! I never knew love like this was out there. In July of 2008 we found out I was pregnant so we decided to put the wedding off until after the baby was born. We didnt make it that far. I gave birth to our daughter London on February 25th 2009 almost exactly one year from our fist date and the day we met. He was the proudest Daddy ever!! He loved her so much and also took in my older daughter from a previous relationship. We were the perfect family. We moved into our first house in April 2009. Life was great, every week we would buy a new WWE DVD. I now have an awesome collection! We had the best year and a half of my life, it was perfect and he loved all of us with his entire being! Ryan was taken from us on November 7th 2009 at the age of 30. He had a massive heart attack! We made it to the Joe Louis Arena and seen Monday Night Raw in August. That was the best time of my life, it was my first and only time I have ever seen the WWE live. I would of posted a picture of us in front of the truck with Cena on it but my pics didnt turn out. But I have the memory in my head and in my heart forever. Every Monday and Friday night I sit here with his urn on my chest and I watch Raw and Smackdown. I cry,I laugh, and I yell at the TV and I talk to Ryan about why I am mad at Orton this week...lol. But I miss the cuddling and making out during the commercials. I know he is right here watching it with me and in the meantime he is hanging out with all the great Wrestlers we have lost over the years! Thats my story and this is why the WWE is and always will be a major part in my life. I will be a WWE Super fan 4-LIFE!!!!!
P.S. I still buy a new DVD every week and will continue that tradition 4 ever! This week is the Wrestle Mania 26 DVD!!

Student A: "You really asked a CEO to come speak to us?"
Me: "Well, I know he's very busy, so I offered to Skype between his office and our classroom, if necessary."
Student B: "Ms. Feng. We don't have Skype in here."
Me: "No problem, we'll install it. Worst case, I'll use my cell on speaker."
Student B: "Aren't you nervous we might embarrass you?"
Me: "What's there to be embarrassed about?"
Student A: "He's a CEO, miss!"
Me: "I know. That's why I reached out to him. What better person to come and speak to you all about business?"
Student A: "So you really think he'll come?"
My curriculum of business, government, and economics tied neatly into my own studies at Colby. I had my students run mock firms, delve into business case studies, research consumer needs, dissect bill proposals. I often channeled my favorite Colby professor, asking, "What would Professor [Cal] Mackenzie do?" (Stay calm. Handle with grace. Be prepared.)
I also constantly remind myself of an insight from my first year of teaching: Students crave success. And, when given attention, respect, and opportunity, students will do anything to try to meet high expectations. This year was no different. As long as my students saw me working hard, they reciprocated. Sure, there were many things my students should have learned prior to senior year but did not. So I caught them up. By taking time to address their deficiencies, I was giving them more confidence and strengthening their capabilities.
I was also brutally honest when I had to be. Sometimes they would groan. I assigned too much work, the content was too challenging, other classes had free time and no homework. My response was always the same.
"Sure, I could let you have a break, though I bet you won't remember a break five years from now. But maybe, just maybe, something I teach you now will resonate later. Maybe it will help on a job interview, in a conversation at a work event. Maybe it'll just help you better understand the world around you. Yes, this is difficult material, but I know each and every one of you can handle it. I wouldn't be standing here if I didn't believe in you."
My mini rant would be greeted by silence and the occasional smart-alecky comment under the breath. But the work always got done—and done well.
Yet, toward the end of the year, I sensed something was a little off. Comments showed that my students, while busy going over business plans and annual reports, could not see themselves in the world of business. It hit me that my students did not grow up with parents chatting about the Dow. The New York Times was not delivered to their door. Rather, most of the people on Wall Street looked, dressed, and talked very differently than the people in my students' lives. So, although my students were invested in and felt good about mastering difficult concepts (I'd bring problems from my sister's economics book and, after completion, proudly announce that they had just done the work of a Columbia undergrad), they didn't fully feel connected to what we were doing.
My reaction? In a perfect world my students would feel the world of finance within reach.
In hindsight, I may have been too idealistic, maybe even downright presumptuous. Who was I to e-mail Robert E. Diamond Jr. '73, CEO of Barclays, and request time out of his hectic schedule? But my own naïveté didn't become apparent to me until later. I just wanted to prove to my students that they deserved the attention of talented and successful people.
That's the way I work. It's also the Teach for America way.
Since the inception of Teach for America, 20 years ago, there has been much commotion about short-term and long-term implications of the organization, which recruits top college graduates to commit to two years of teaching in low-income communities. Critics say TFA undervalues a respected profession. Few TFA corps members are education majors, yet they are assigned to under-resourced classrooms with overwhelmingly lagging and often challenging and/or disturbed students. TFA corps members, primed with undergraduate degrees in public policy, economics, chemistry, and myriad other majors, enter the classroom after a mere five weeks of training. Each corps member's total teaching experience amounts to approximately two days of teaching. So it is no surprise that skeptics question how the TFA model can lead to success.
Teach For America works because it recruits staff and corps members who play the perfect-world game, too. TFA operates under the prevailing ideology that our nation's achievement gap is so pervasive that we need our nation's most ambitious, relentless, disciplined individuals to combat educational inequity. As a result, Teach For America casts a wide net, seeking the double-major student-body president, the politically active investment-banking analyst, the premedical student who is captain of the swim team. Ninety-six percent of TFA corps members have demonstrated leadership, whether as captain, club leader, nonprofit founder, project coordinator, or tutor. A successful teacher needs skills in critical thinking, communication, innovation, and analysis. They may be new to the classroom, but members bring these skills to schools.
Yet this is only part of the overarching goal of Teach For America: that one day all children will have the opportunity to receive an excellent education. While roughly 60 percent of corps members continue in education after their two-year commitments, others leave the field changed. They become a crucial component in TFA's fight against the achievement gap. TFA veterans permeate business, medicine, politics, law, nonprofit, and public policy. Though no longer in education directly, members carry their experiences with them, expanding Teach For America's network and reach.
These high-minded goals don't keep me from having days when I feel defeated. I don't have enough resources in my classroom. I wasn't clear explaining hedge funds. A colleague makes a snide comment that when TFA corps members work late it makes everyone else look bad. A fight breaks out in the hallway during a lesson. The projector isn't working.
My antidote? The perfect-world game. I write grant proposals (six for six so far!). I brainstorm with a friend about how to teach the content more effectively. I gently remind my colleague that we're all in this for the students. I call security and continue teaching despite the fight. I forgo the PowerPoint for a lively class discussion.
With honest self-scrutiny, I forgive myself every night for the imperfections. I wake up each morning and continue to plan for the perfect world, "where all children will have an equal opportunity for an excellent education."
And sometimes it seems like the perfect world is actually here.
In May Mr. Diamond did visit our classroom. He spoke about his childhood and his family's dedication to education. He described the culture at Barclays. He talked about the implications of financial regulations and the importance of simply doing the right thing, taking the moral route. He spoke of our increasingly globalized world and the power of higher education. My students sat up straighter, heads high, absorbing all he was sharing.
And after he left they could not stop talking about how down-to-earth this star of investment banking was, how he answered each of their questions thoughtfully. "We could tell he was really thinking about his answers, miss!" Every one of my students felt validated. One of my favorite comments came from a student with a particularly difficult background, one who does not have many opportunities to feel successful. He beamed. "I understood everything he was talking about!"
And then Mr. Diamond invited my students to visit Barclays in midtown Manhattan. Meeting with people from investment banking, capital markets, and campus recruiting? Suspicious, one of my best students asked, "Won't the people on the trading floor be annoyed having a bunch of students walk around there?"
It was clear that my students felt a lot more comfortable with Mr. Diamond on their own turf; 745 Seventh Avenue was alien territory. But then I heard it. "We're good enough for Mr. Diamond, so we'll be good enough for everyone in that building. When are the permission slips due, Ms. Feng?"
Two weeks later we found ourselves in the Barclays lobby. While we were hoping to see Mr. Diamond again, we understood that an executive's schedule is hectic. So imagine our surprise when Mr. Diamond arranged for us to visit him in his office as the first stop. This time, without hesitation, my students marched in, owning the experience. They finally accepted the fact that they are worth it. It was a perfect end to the school year. In the perfect-world game, it was a true win.

FOSDEM 2006 in Brussels
Non-commercial, uncomplicated and ever popular, 3,500 developers met on the campus of the Free University of Brussels for FOSDEM 2006.
Raphael Bauduin has a big smile on his face: the event he launched in 2000 as a free software meeting at the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) has just celebrated its sixth birthday. At the Free and Opensource Software Developers' European Meeting (FOSDEM) February 25 and 26, some 3,500 participants invaded the narrow corridors of the university buildings – not only developers from Europe, but many guests from the USA and all over the world. In his keynote FSF President Richard Stallmann lashed out against software patents, which he referred to as a "threat to anyone who uses or develops free software". Unfortunately, for most developers, avoiding or licensing patents were not acceptable approaches to handling patent issues, he continued. And most people just could not afford to battle over patent issues in court. This is what caused Stallman to call on Europeans to fight software patents on a political level. He went on to introduce the audience to the latest developments in version 3 of the GPL, calling on them to post their comments on the latest draft of the license at http:// gplv3. fsf. org. The draft process will be entering the next round in July.

Top Stories of 2012
by George Pavlik
posted Dec 30 2012 4:47PM
Way I made this list up was the top 5 stories from the local ranks (high school and college). Then regional (DC and Baltimore). Followed by the top 5 national stories.
1. Martinsburg football 3-peats. Was there really a question this would not be number one? First time since Charleston did this feat from 1968-1970 in Triple-A. No question this is the number one local story of the year.
2. Denny Price retires. After a great coaching career and great season for the Appleman Denny Price sang his swan song.
3. Hedgesville Boys Basketball wins Triple-A crown.Since 1970 a basketball title has eldued the Eagles. But playing perfect basketball in the Carleston Civic Center, They brought one home
4. West Virginia moves to the Big XII. After being in the Big East since 1991 in football and the 1995-1996 season for basketball. The Mountaineers made the leap to the Big XII.
5.Hedgesville and Mussleman go to the state volleyball tournament. Any time a local team goe to a state tournament that deserves a top 5 slot.
1. Orioles nake the playoffs. For the first time in 15 years The Orioles had both a winning season and Playoff appearance. that to me is enough to earn the number one spot.
2. Strasburg shutdown. I still hold on to a belief that had he pitched in the NLDS they are moving on to the NLCS to take on the Giants.
3. RGIII and the REDSKINS.Making a Playoff push and the Redskins exciting. First time in a long time that has happened.
4. Ravens injuries. Reason i put this here is because many had them as a Super Bowl contender but with the injuries a first round playoff win would be very lucky.
5. Capitals season/playoffs. Looked like they would not get in.Instead went tot he second round and took the Rangers righ to the brink.
1. Giants win the World Series. Reason i have this here. Giants had a tough regular season lost closer Brian Wilson to injury. Lost Melky Cabrera to performance enhancing drugs and the Dodgers bolstered there lineup. Giants ended up winning the division to spite that all by eight games. Then the playoffs. Went down 0-2 to the Reds and had to go into Cincinnati a place they NEVER win had to win 3 in a row and did so. Then went to St. Louis. Went down 1-3 and had to rely on a guy in Barry Zito that pretty much had robbed them blind from 2007 until October 19th. Where he pitched a GEM. And the Giants never lost again.As they beat the Cardinals in game 5 5-0 then went on to dominate the Cardinals in game 6 winning 6-1 and game 7 winning 9-0. Then onto the world Series they DOMINATED and when i say DOMINATED I am putting it lightly. A heavly favored Detriot Tigers was there foes in the World Series Giants swept them and trailed for a total of one inning. So if it is debated why that is my number one National story theres all my points.
2. Michael Phelps. Put on another great show as he always does in the Olympics. Dominating in the pool he earns my scond spot.
3. Kings win the Stanley Cup. An 8-seed that looked like they would not get to the playoffs got there and behind Jonathan Quick dominated the playoffs. Hockey maybe in lockout but cannot overlook what they did back in June.
4. Chuckstrong. I had that of Peyton Manning going to the Denver Broncos and being Peyton Manning at this spot. But seeing What the Colts have done and the tribute made for Chuck Pagano before this afternoons Colts-Texans game that is what stole my heart and got the 4-spot.
5. Peyton Manning being Peyton Manning. Came in with questions could he be that guy he was in Indy? Well if the Broncos win today then he got a one seed for the Broncos. I think that question was answered.
There is my top 15 stories of 2012. I hope you all had a good 2012 and a great 2013. Happy New Years!

Sustainable development
Recycling partnership with Carrefour in Colombia
Bavaria is part of a partnership – that we believe to be the first of its kind in Colombia – to establish a recycling programme for post-consumption packaging.
Working with CEMPRE, a not-for-profit association financed by large companies to promote a culture of reduction, reuse and recycling, the partnership will install 15 recycling centres in Carrefour supermarkets in Bogotá and Medellin. Local recycling companies – preferably small businesses – will collect material brought in by consumers and take it to the existing recycling facilities in each city, encouraging enterprise in this area.
The programme will be accompanied by a communication campaign to encourage consumers to bring the recycling material to the centres.
Our priorities: Packaging
Ensuring responsible sourcing of coal in Colombia
Coal is the primary source of fuel at the Bavaria breweries in Valle, Tibitó, Medellín and Boyacá in Colombia. As a significant buyer of coal and as part of its commitment to responsible sourcing, Bavaria undertook a detailed review of its coal suppliers to make sure they were meeting expected quality and production standards, including those relating to working practices and environmental management. Nine suppliers were reviewed as part of this process, which included site visits, against 11 performance standards.
During these visits, there were no cases of child labour identified. All the mines had a responsible person leading the technical and operational work, and the correct mining permits were in place. However, some issues were found relating to the physical condition of the mines themselves and potential issues concerning the health and safety of miners. In each case, the concern was raised with management and improvement plans requested.
Our priorities: Enterprise development
See how we're building supply chains that reflect our own values and commitment
Improving supplier standards in Colombia
In 2009 Bavaria presented ethical performance awards to 54 suppliers as part of its Rumbo Empresas Íntegras y Transparentes programme.
The aim of the programme, developed in association with Transparency for Colombia, the local chapter of Transparency International, was to implement and strengthen the culture of ethics in companies providing services to Bavaria. The course lasted 12 months, during which suppliers' policies and procedures were reviewed to ensure they met Bavaria's minimum standards, including those relating to business ethics and anti-bribery. More than 6,000 participants were involved in this training.

Derby thinking of naming road after Lara Croft
The city's marketing director likes the idea.
Derby is taking suggestions for names of two roads, and with Tomb Raider creator Core Design based in the city, the suggestion of Lara Croft Way seems a popular choice.
"Personally I would be in favour of something that projects something new and modern about the city so I quite like the Lara Croft idea," said John Forkin, director of Marketing Derby.
If you lived on Lara Croft Way what would you name your house?

This was my favorite sample in my December box. I got about two weeks use from it and I used it under my nighttime moisturizer. It made my skin texture smooth and glowing by morning. I also felt like it really blended my eye area, taking away little lines and puffiness. Need to save up and buy this serum!
This brand surprised me - it was a powerhouse in the generous sized tester sent in my Birchbox. I used it morning and night on the lower half of my face and down onto my neck area and I noticed a huge difference in the tone and lift of my skin. Love this! I'm buying more and exploring more options in this brand. It was a pleasing light texture and didnt' have any type of scent that I could tell - very easy to use with good results.
I liked the way my skin felt after using this product, but I wasn't sure if this was just a temporary thing. I would really need a full size bottle to see the long term affects. It seems a little pricey for me so I would love other serum samples.
I didn't notice any change in appearance or how my skin felt after using this product. This may be the type of product that shows results with a longer time period but based on the sample I wouldn't recommend it.
I am glad I got to try it. I am just starting to notice fine lines and need to experiment with serums. The product is ok. Like other reviewers, I did not like the smell and did not notice any difference in my skin. It is pretty pricy.
I really liked the way my skin felt after using this product. My skin felt tighter and looked better. I rarely purchase any products as pricey as this but plan on purchasing this product from birchbox.
Sadly I didn't get a sample, but my friend did and thought it was good. I'm still young to not need firming serum, but you never know!
I'm not crazy about the texture or smell... but I like how my skin feels when I use this... To be honest, I haven't noticed any improvements, and I'm not sure I will in the long-term, either. Really good sample size.
Amazing! My skin felt and looked like new after using this serum. It completely changed how my skin felt, silky smooth!
My skn felt nice afterwards, but after a month of using it, no noticible difference. Also, I was not crazy about the smell.

Hello all!
I downloaded iAtkos_2.0i BS release and would like to try it out on one of my spare systems.
Is there a clear list of minimum requirements listed anywhere around here? I've seen contradicting information through my searches, some saying that iAtokis v2.0 doesn't support AMD, and some saying that v2.0 DOES support AMD. Does anybody know which is which?
Both of my spare systems are AMD chipsets. One is dual core and one is not. I'd be willing to drop a little bit of coin on a cheap Intel system if I could guarantee that it would successfully boot OS X. Any confirmation on which systems will work for sure?
Also, how will installing OS X affect the existing bios? Let's say I decided to try installing iAtkos on the system I'm using right now. I'd buy a new SATA hdd and replace the one currently installed right now (with Vista premium installed) to try and keep it 'safe.' Now, if I put the new hdd in and throw OS X on it and it doesn't work will I be able to safely throw my original hdd back in there and continue running Vista? And what if it DOES work? If I wanna go back to Vista can I swap back to my original hdd?

Academic Flexibility:
I ultimately chose this school because of the flexibility of scheduling and the courses that are offered. I like the flow of classes and the ease of understanding what is being taught. Other schools you may be a great student, but still do not understand the subject at hand due to the ineffectiveness of teaching methods. AIU methods seem to help even the most lower level participant learn new skills. The length of time that it will take me to complete the program outweighs the cons.
Academic Flexibility:
The whole school staff are friendly and professional. The learning center is the best part of this school, gives you the opportunity to study .
Academic Flexibility:
There is not a lot of flexibility when it comes to scheduling classes. There are some classes that are offered only online and the ones offered on campus can vary greatly depending on the class. I need to take an accounting class that's only offered at night or online so I had to forfeit that class until next quarter. Class flexibility could be better!
Academic Flexibility:
Our school is based on a 10 week per term rotation. The amount of information that they require us to retain is somewhat ridiculous. There really is not enough time to get the info, process, and implement it productively.
Academic Flexibility:
Hassles or Frustrations – My biggest frustration is the Registrar. Transcripts were turned in and not accounted for and now almost two quarters left they need transcripts again and I am currently taking a repeat class I had already passed.

I'm sad today. My grandmother died at 4am. She had been sick, and we knew that this was coming. They started Hospice Monday night. I'm glad she didn't suffer for long. She was a 4 pack a day smoker for 40 years and she died of lung cancer. Please, if you smoke, quit. I'm sure if she hadn't smoked she would have lived at least 10 to 15 years longer. She quit smoking 15 years ago. I'm grateful for my fond memories with her, but I wish I could have spent more time with her.
I'm not feeling much like cooking or doing much of anything, but I did go for some retail therapy to lighten my mood. I love the web. I found 5 lbs of coarse Sel Gris De Guerande (Sel Gris de Guérande - Coarse has a unique color that makes this a truly beautiful salt. The grey hue comes from its extremely high level of minerals and nutrients. The crystals range in size from 2-3mm. Popular for baking breads, soups and sauces. The soft, moist crystals will dissolve quickly and evenly when used in your favorite recipes. When used as a finishing salt, Sel Gris Coarse adds a nice crunch to your dishes. Neither treated or washed, it is totally natural and can be used in products that are labeled Organic. *This salt is certified organic by France's Nature & Progrés. This is the most rigorous salt certification process, which equates to purity and quality. ) for $31.00 and that includes shipping.
I feel shallow and silly for masking my sorrow in frugal salt procurement, but I think my grandma would understand.

Student musicians hold recitals at Luther
Throughout the year, Luther students have the opportunity to attend the recitals of their friends and classmates. Students who are music majors are required to perform recitals, but many other student musicians also choose to hold recitals.
"Having a recital provides a great opportunity to showcase and share your own individual talent, potential and all the hard work and effort that you put into your program," Grace Erie ('14) said. Erie performed her voice recital last Tuesday.
As a music major, Allison Vollinger ('15) was required to perform a voice recital.
A reading to remember
The Center for Ethics and Public Life and the English department hosted Augustana College professor and author Patrick Hicks for a reading of his new historical fiction novel, "The Commandant of Lubizec," Thursday, April 10.
"The Commandant of Lubizec" is a novel that tells the story of a fictional Nazi death camp in Poland. Various viewpoints were portrayed from survivors, train drivers and the commandant. The reading, which took place April 10 at 7 p.m. in Olin, consisted of readings from three different chapters, a question and answer discussion and a book signing.
Norse of the Week
Kyle Appel ('17) and James Ayer ('14) won at number two doubles against Coe on April 5. They won 8-5 in that match. Ayer went on to win his singles match that day completing the only two victories the team had over Coe. This season the team has gone 18-5 overall.

New stadium proposed
The Luther College Development office has recently announced the new softball and baseball stadium project. The design would put in new stadium seating, backstops and press boxes.

Senate opinion discredits candidates
I appreciate Chips for many of its articles, as many of them are finely written on appropriate topics with strong journalistic ethics. The exception to this are the regular "drug bust" articles, which although unbiased, provide the person's name to the entire student body, essentially wringing them out to dry for no clear reason at all.

Musakhan - Bread-Wrapped Roast Chicken
You'll see many different versions of this across the Middle East, including fast food versions that include flatbread dough with onions and chicken baked on top. But the traditional version wraps the chicken in a kind of bread called marquq, a very thin flatbread made on a saj grill. A good Middle Eastern grocery will have marquq, but other thin flatbreads, like shraq or lavash will also work.
When I once described this dish to a friend, she exclaimed, "bread-wrapped roast chicken, that sounds like a dream!" And indeed, it is excellent. The bread, which is soft and full of chickeny juices on the bottom and crisp and crackly no top, the deep flavor of caramelized onions, the fleck of sumac, the tender meat. It's the sort of weeknight comfort food you can eat all week long.
While you can include the chicken wings in the pan, I find the wings are boney and take up too much space in the pan, so I usually set them aside from another use. I like to double or triple the bread on the bottom, so that it absorbs chicken and onion juices, but I like only one layer of crispy bread on the top.
1 free-range chicken (about 3 1/2 lbs), butchered into 2 legs, 2 thighs, 2 legs, and 2 wings
good quality olive oil
2 large sweet onions, or 3 medium size ones
1/4 cup sumac
3-4 sheets marquq bread
salt, pepper
1. In a large, deep casserole, heat 1/ 4 cup of the olive oil, then lightly brown the chicken on all sides over a medium heat, about 20 minutes. Remove and set aside. Add the remaining 1/ 4 cup olive oil to the casserole and cook the onions until translucent, about 35 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the sumac and cook for 2 minutes to mix.
2. Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease a 9 x 12-inch baking dish or large casserole, then line with two or three stacked sheets of marquq bread, or two halves of Arabic-style bread. Spoon half the onions over each, then arrange the chicken on top of the onions and cover with the remaining onions and the juices from the casserole. Cover with a single sheet of marquq bread or halves of Arabic bread, tucking in the sides crusty side up and sprinkling some water over top. Bake until the chicken is very tender and almost falling off the bone, about 1 1/ 2 hours. After 1/2 hour, cover the top with aluminum foil. Keep an eye on the bottom of the pan, if you see juices bubbling in the bottom of the pan add some water to the bottom of the pan so they don't burn.
3. Let rest a few minutes, then serve. Makes good leftovers.
Note: The size of marquq bread varies, so use common sense.

Can I give my unsolicited two cents on this? Traditionally in Palestine it is made with thick, pillowy 'taboon' bread. Very similar to Indian naan in texture. I'm craving this now, with extra sumac and a generous heaping of loz and snobar on top!

The version I've made called for boiling the chicken and then it got the lovely brown color when roasting it on the layers. It's a "traditional" version that I learned as the "reheating" happens in part because it's frequently leftover chicken. It's boiled with a little cardamom and salt. The bread is often dipped in the stock before tearing it up and making the layers. Also a great variation instead of pine nuts (which I love) was one that my friends mother made with peanuts. Not sure where she got the idea, but it was a surprising and yummy substitution.
And btw, I'm in love with your blog-- only recently discovered it. And am currently trying your braided wreaths. I couldn't resist.

I'm eager to try this recipe, but there is nothing resembling a Middle-Eastern grocery anywhere near my house, and I don't think I'll ever find marquq. I did find, however, that Alton Brown has a recipe for lavash (which you mention can be used in lieu of the marquq), but it seems to yield a product more closely resembling crackers and I wonder if his lavash can be successfully substituted here. What do you think?

Welcome to Alicante – the friendliest city in Spain! Alicante past present and future. Different civilizations have passed through these lands, leaving their mark which can be seen in all corners of this emblematic city. All of this adds to the appeal of this modern city with a primary focus on tourism, but also a special interest in industry and commerce. Alicante, situated on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, offers not only a great variety of services but also a wide range of cultural activities, with its museums, its festivals and its nature areas, in particular the Island of Tabarca (Mediterranean Marine Reserve). Alicante's well-known climate and beaches make this a perfect city for spending a few pleasantly relaxing days away from it all.
Antwerp, a busy pocket-sized metropolis, has something for everyone. The city is an inspiring source of culture thanks to its impressive architecture and magnificent museums and churches. Fashionistas can explore the stores of Antwerp's designers, whose stylish creations are revered all over the world. And foodies and people with a passion for life in general will enjoy the warm welcome of Antwerp's cafés and restaurants. A visit to Antwerp should definitely include the new museum MAS, the world famous Cathedral of Our Lady and the Rubens House, the home of Antwerp's most famous ambassador.
Of all Europe's capitals, Athens is probably the one that has changed the most in recent years. But even though Athens has become a modern metropolis, it still retains a good deal of its old small town feel. Here antiquity meets the future, and the ancient monuments form a classical backdrop to a new and trendier Athens – and it is precisely these great contrasts that make the city such a fascinating place to explore.
Fanciful architecture and hip restaurants have come together with the sunny southern Spanish climate and beaches. This has transformed Barcelona in just a few decades from a rough port city to one of Europe's—if not the world's—premier destinations. Stroll along La Rambla, admire the Casa Calvet's façade or the Casa Mila designed by Gaudi, visit the Market of la Boqueria or shop at El Corte Inglés. Sample some of the many bars, cafés and late night haunts while you're at it.
Bari, a typical maritime and market city, is the capital of the Apulia region and the second biggest city in the Italian south. The city developed industrially in the second half of the twentieth century and now boasts an important trade fair, the largest in the south. Tourists visit Bari for its historic buildings, art works and fascinating town centre, as well as for the beaches which surround the area.
Having survived almost three decades of conflict and division, Belfast is now emerging from its chrysalis with a newfound freshness and vibrancy. Carrying a deep sense of its history, yet boldly striding into the future, Belfast is an exciting juxtaposition of old and new. Stroll by the River Lagan and see the birthplace of the infamous Titanic, visit the famous political murals in a black taxi or kick back with a traditional music session in one of this lively city's beautifully preserved old pubs.
As one of Europe's oldest cities, located at the crossroads of the East and West, the capital of Serbia is an incredibly rich mosaic of different cultures, influences and styles with a mysterious and exotic atmosphere. European but with oriental influences, Belgrade is a great weekend break, with tons of interesting sights and attractions, splendid architecture, a fast-paced nightlife, great and affordable shopping, as well as a thriving cultural scene.
The Basque city of Bilbao is a spellbinding capital of design and gastronomy. With one of the world's finest buildings - the Guggenheim - at its heart, Bilbao dazzles with style and energy and boasts a unique identity as well as Europe's oldest and most enigmatic language.
As capital of the Emilia Romagna region, Bologna is an art city, a university centre and a place renowned for its excellent cuisine. It hosts important international trade fairs and is one of the world's greatest motor cities. Ducati, Lamborghini and Maserati were all born in Bologna and Ferrari's headquarters can be found in nearby Modena.
Boston, MA
Long known for its "old world" charm, from the historic Faneuil Hall to the Freedom Trail that celebrates Boston's preeminent role in the American Revolution. Boston has come a long way towards staking its claim in the 21st century. With the completion of the "Big Dig," which buried Boston's vast network of highways underground, Boston has hit the new century running. Attractions span the old and the new including the JFK and Boston Public Libraries, the Boston Children's Museum, the New England Aquarium, Boston's beautiful Public Gardens and her extraordinary Museum of Fine Art and Museum of Science. With a collection of parks set to take the place of the ungainly elevated highways, the years to come promise to see Boston only grow more beautiful.

I have successfully installed iAtkos v7 on a Gigabyte G31m-ES2L board and a Core Duo processor. I do not have a video card installed and I am running both video and audio (both working) from the onboard connections.
I installed iLife 9.0 and not I get the incompatibility error from Quartz when I start iMovie. Since I do not have a card installed, does anyone know of a video card that is compatible with Quartz and iAtkos v7(standard installation)? I have both the PCI-E X16 and the PCI-E X1 available.
Or does anyone know if I can patch the kext to get this board to be compatible? It is the Intel GMA 3100 video processor.

Hit-and-run victim was daughter of Citizen managing editor
Public memorial service planned for Friday at 3 pm
The daughter of Henrico Citizen Managing Editor Patty Kruszewski was the victim of a fatal hit-and-run incident on River Road in Richmond near the University of Richmond late Sunday night.
Lanie Kruszewski, 24, was riding her bicycle east on River Road near Bridgeway Road, when she was struck by a motorist who apparently was traveling the same direction, according to Richmond Police. She died at the scene.
Police believe the vehicle that struck Kruszewski may have been a Jeep Cherokee or Dodge Durango. It may have damage to the front passenger side area, including its headlight and side mirrors or window, police said.
Kruszweski was a 2006 graduate of the Maggie L. Walker's Governor School in Richmond and a 2011 graduate of James Madison University.
Anyone with information about this incident should call Crime Stoppers at (804) 780-1000 or text Crime Stoppers at 274637 using the word "iTip" followed by a tip. Both options are anonymous. Tips may also be made to the Richmond Police Hit and Run Unit by calling (804) 646-1369.
A public memorial service will be held at 3 p.m., Friday, Aug. 3, in the the Maggie L. Walker Governor's School commons.
In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made in Kruszewski's name to:
• the Maggie L. Walker Governor's School Foundation, which supports the school;
• the Virginia Bicycling Federation, a safety and advocacy group that seeks to improve cycling conditions statewide;
• Brain Food, a Washington, D.C. organization that teachers high-schoolers about food, nutrition, cooking, and jobs in the food industry.
Patty Kruszewski recently wrote a column about Title IX's 40th anniversary, in which she described a number of Lanie's experiences as a student, athlete and young adult and explained how the law helped open doors for her and millions of other young women; read it here.
A Facebook page in Lanie's memory has been established here: https://www.facebook.com/InMemoryOfLanieKruszewski.

A fun, fuzzy ride
'Muppets Most Wanted' worthy of its franchise
Do Muppets sleep? It's hard to say.
They don't really eat (or breathe, as far as anyone can tell). And only occasionally do they have visible, functioning legs.
As far as anyone knows, sleeping might be off the table. And that makes it very hard to accuse the Muppets of sleepwalking through their latest feature, Muppets Most Wanted – even if that's exactly what's going on.
Jim Henson's beloved creations were back in a big way after 2011's The Muppets, with fame and fortune and even an Oscar, a first for the group ("Rainbow Connection" was nominated, yet somehow failed to collect at the '79 ceremony). > Read more.

Acnezine Cures your Acne for Good
For men and women suffering with embarrassing acne, the slew of acne treatments on the market can make it complicated to choose a product that works as it suppose to without causing other problems along the way as well. Acne products often contain harsh ingredients that damage the skin while others simply do not work at all. But not Acnezine. This breakthrough acne treatment has the people talking, and with good reason. It is an all-natural product that works for most everyone, and it is affordable!
Acnezine is a product suited for all genders and all ages, providing the same effective results for each of them time and time again. The acne treatment is the perfect solution when you want to clear your skin without hour harsh ingredients which cause the greater damage to be done.
Using your Acne product
This product is different in so many ways, starting with the fact that it is a pill and not some oily cream that you apply. Users of Acnezine take 1 pill per day and they are done! With Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Aloe Vera and Collagen as some of the main ingredients in the product you can rest assured knowing that it will not harm you but help treat your acne once and for all! You will not be bothered with side effects when you use Acnezine, and that is a major plus!
Acnezine was scientifically developed after years of research devoted to understanding acne and its causes. It isn't one of those fly-by-night products that everyone talks about only to learn that it doesn't work! This is an acne treatment that has already helped thousands of people get the great skin they've always wanted, and it could help you, too!
The makers of the product are so confident in its ability to cure your acne they offer a money-back guarantee along with it! If you do not achieve the best results and acne-free skin within 90 days, return the unused portion of the product and you can get a full refund! They are already selling the product at ridiculously low prices, and they offer a money-back guarantee. I think we have a winner.
Seeing the Results for yourself
This is a product that works quickly, but you must remember there is no such thing as a miracle cure. It will take a few uses and a few days to begin seeing a change, and within a few short weeks those changes will turn into dramatic feats! This product works from the inside out and provide you with the best results you could ever desire. Beautiful, clear skin will be yours and plenty of reason to celebrate your victory should follow.
Even better, Acnezine is not a product that you must take for the rest of your life! Because this product works to solve the root cause of the acne, you can expect to be completely healed and free of acne in a period of about three months. After this three month time frame you are no longer prone to acne and can stop using the product.
The benefits of this acne treatment are second-to-none, and when you are fed up with products that do not really work and wasting your hard-earned money, stop doing it and get the acne treatment that really works! Your skin will thank you for it later!

Participants from Utah, Arizona, Idaho and elsewhere gathered in a public park to sign a "Declaration of Independence from Mormonism."
"This feels awesome," said Alison Lucas, from West Jordan, Utah, who took part in the rally amid soaring temperatures. "I don't know if I would have had the courage except in a group."
The Utah-based Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is known for its culture of obedience, and the mass ceremony was a seldom-seen act of collective revolt.
After gathering in the park, participants hiked a half-mile up nearby Ensign Peak, scaled in 1847 by church President Brigham Young to survey the spot where his Latter-day Saints would build a city.
At the top, those gathered gave three loud shouts of "Freedom," cheered, clapped and hugged.
"It's been a hard journey and this is a symbolic end," said event organizer Zilpha Larsen, of Lehi, Utah. "I just hope that it boosts people up and helps them feel more comfortable in their decision."
The church bills itself as the one "true" Christian faith, and its theology promises families eternal relationships among those who remain faithful, sealing those gifts through special religious rites.
Among the reasons cited by those resigning are the church's political activism against gay marriage and doctrinal teachings that conflict with scientific findings or are perceived as racist or sexist.
Others cite inconsistencies in the Mormons' explanation of its own history, including the practice of polygamy. The church renounced plural marriage over a century ago as Utah was seeking statehood.
