Although the news of Osama bin Laden's death Sunday night invoked a celebratory mood among university community members, some experts are now questioning the response of U.S. citizens to the incident, as well as the future of international relations with the Middle East. Political science professor Muqtedar Khan said the focus will now be on how bin Laden escaped detection during a 10- year manhunt. He said this issue could further complicate relations between the U.S. and Pakistan, where bin Laden was found living in a luxurious compound. "At the moment there's a very heightened suspicion on both sides," Khan said.

of the week Whiskey, juice stolen from East Park Place residence Saturday An unidentified person removed a bottle of Canadian whiskey and a container of cranberry juice from an unsecured window of a residence in the first block of East Park Place Saturday night, according to Newark police spokesman MCpl. Gerald Bryda. The victim, a 20-year old university student, noticed the bottle of whiskey missing from his kitchen counter and believed it must have been taken between 9 p.m. Saturday and 7 a.m. Sunday, Bryda said. The victim then saw a partially open window, with the removed screen lying on the ground outside. He and his roommates also noticed another window was open in the rear of the house, Bryda said. He said it appears the suspect attempted to gain entry through the rear window. The victim found caps to the bottles just outside that window. The victim's roommate located the two empty bottles in the grass in the backyard of the residence, Bryda said. He said there were other, more valuable items in plain sight throughout the residence. None of these appeared to have been touched. Bryda said there are no suspects at this time, but · charges would include second-degree burglary, theft and criminal mischief.

ELKTON, Md. - Hula hoops, slacklines and live music filled the sprawling farm and camp grounds of Uncle Bob's Western Corral at the fourth annual RamJam festival on Saturday. Local acts, such as Mad Sweet Pangs, Spokey Speaky, 61 North and New Sweden took to the festival's two stages and played for a crowd of university students, music enthusiasts and families. The first band took the stage at 11 a.m; the last played at 2:30 a.m Sunday morning. Ramsey Hazbun, a university graduate student and RamJam creator, says approximately 500 tickets were sold for the benefit festival. The highlight of the event came after the sun went down, and the night got cooler. 61 North brought down the house, concluding an hour-long set with a cover of Eric Clapton's "Cocaine" and one original song in the pavilion. Then, local favorite Mad Sweet Pangs, a band that recently released a new album, For the Ride, and headlined at World Cafe Live at The Queen in Wilmington, took to the main stage. Droves of people crowded the stage area to watch the Pangs perform alongside jean short-clad backup singers and a hom section. In front of the stage, girls wearing black sleeveless T-shirts and shorts skillfully spun light-up hula hoops and twirled flaming batons. The crowd, made up of both young and old, danced like no one was watching.

ELKTON, Md. - She's the Bailey's to his Guinness. Under an awning of white flowers and among an audience of friends, family and strangers, Brie Allen and Eric Venette threw back Irish car bombs in celebration of their marriage. For music aficionados, Saturday marked the 4th annual RamJam music festival, but for Allen, 25, and Venette, 26, it was a celebration of matrimony. The couple, longtime friends of RamJam creator Ramsey Hazburn, had a rather avant-garde wedding at Uncle Bob's Western Corral in Elkton, Md. In between bands performances, the couple took to one of the festival's two stages and were married in front of a crowd of approximately 150 festival-goers. "It's kind of funny. We've known Ramsey for so long and we asked Ramsey, and said, 'We don't really know where we want to get married,"' Allen says. "I asked him, 'Can we get married at the farm?' and he goes, 'Better THE REVIEW/Brian Resnick yet, why don't you get married at Eric and Brie Venette pose after the ceremony.

Venette's best man and hackey-sack companion from their days at Christiana High School, Chris Masters, knew all along that Brie would be the one to tame the groom. "I knew it would take a tough New York chick like Brie to settle this guy down and keep him straight. I'm glad to be a part of this," Masters, clad in a tuxedo T-shirt, says to the crowd. By the time Allen's maid of honor finished her speech, the wedding party had tears glistening on their faces, but laughter resonated through the audience. After the couple slipped the light blue braided hemp rings on each other's fingers and shared a passionate embrace, they were unified officially in a rather original fashion. "Everybody, I now present to you Mr. and Mrs. Brie and Eric Venette," Clearly says. "Let's do some fricking carbombs!"
