We will be posting information about how to order hard-copies of the magazine for distribution very soon, so make sure to check out the website again later.

If you are in Berkeley, you may be able to pick up a hard copy near Sproul Plaza on the UC Berkeley campus if you run into one of the editors; or, you can contact one of them to meet in person and pick one up. Try yaman@a-rab.net or husam@a-rab.net.

If you'd like to get involved in our next issue, please make sure to submit your material by September 21, 2007! We are especially looking for people who can be advertising agents, layout designers, website editors, distributors, and illustrators, so send us an e-mail if you can help in any capacity!

And, as always, don't forget to join our Facebook group here.
