Kincaid's - St. Paul
Online Reservations
I took my wife here for our second anniversary. (We came here last year for our first anniversary, as well.) The menu is diverse, with a number of entrees under $30, even when it's not restaurant week. We were disappointed that they dropped their no-corkage-fee for the first bottle policy, but it's not a deal breaker at a restaurant like this that provides great value across the board. Great experience with great service, we'll be back!
We had a wonderful meal at Kincaid's in St. Paul during Restaurant Week. Started with great tasting cocktails - side car and classic martini. Then I had the caesar salad, prime rib, and key lime pie while my boyfriend had the tomato soup, short ribs and key lime pie. Brian, our waiter, gave us suggested wine pairings with our meal. Again, just wonderful. We go to the Ordway for opera and decided that we'll be making Kincaid's our before or after opera stop from now on!
What a lovely meal for restaurant week. All that delicious food for $30.
The prime rib was so tender! All the food was amazing! Service was a little slow, but waiter was very friendly and knowledgable. It was busy though. At times the noise was pretty high and we couldn't hear each other talk, but we were by a couple large groups. Pricy, but good food.
Thanks for a great experience at Kincaids. We'll be back
Wonderful food, great service. Makes you feel like you are in a more private setting vs open area
Excellent food and great service...much appreciated!
Excellent steaks and seafood. Nice variety in the menu. Great downtown St.Paul venue.
My stop before attending a concert at the Ordway was an extremely pleasant experience, first the food was prepared as I liked, second the service was great and the atmosphere was comfortable. Even though I hadn't shared the information that I was running late after placing my order, all efforts were made to help me make my 7:30pm time and my dessert was reserved for after the show. I found that to be great!!!!! I'll definitely return.
Our first experience at Kincaids was absolutely wonderful. The service and food exceeded our expectations, and the lavender Cosmo was the best drink I have had in a long time!
We had an overall excellent lunch at Kincaids. The offerings were interesting yet traditional. The food was well prepared and pleasingly presented. The wait staff was efficient and courteous. The cost was within the range of most restaurant lunch offerings. We enjoyed every bite.
My husband and I had dinner on a Saturday evening to celebrate our birthdays. The service was EXCELLENT, (thanks, Sara) and the food was exactly what we have come to expect from Kincaid's. Delicious! Our our way home we planned our next visit to Kincaid's for when Rice Park is decorated for the holidays.
The food was great and the service was even better!
Both of us had "Harry met Sally" dinners and the service was A+. This restaurant is consistently outstanding in all aspects. If you have guests/company and you want to take them out for a fabulous dinner experience in St Paul, you can't do better than here.
We had 4 different entrees this time: salmon "Wild" special, prime rib, shellfish fettuccine, and short ribs. Everyone raved about their dish. My short ribs were so flavorful and tender I wanted to eat them all, but just got too full! Our daughter, who had the prime rib, said it's the best she'd ever had. All this, AND our server brought us a complementary creme brulee because the service was so fast we still had 45 minutes to kill before our concert!
The restaurant was everything I expected. The dining experience was great. The meal and service made the celebratory meal just perfect. It was suddenly 3 hours later, never felt rushed, never felt we were there too long, bravo!
Great food but would like to see more interesting menu items. Change it up a little.
My husband and I are very pleases with the service and the ambience was beautiful. I will be recommending Kincaid to all my friends and family who enjoy a nice elegant and romantic night out in the city.
Kinkaid's is always excellent! Our party had prime rib, scallops and blackened sea bass for our entrees. All were excellent. I must commend Kinkaid's on the prime rib. I usually do not order prime rib as it is fatty and too rich for my tastes. However, after several years of not ordering it, I was in the mood for it and decided to give it a try at Kinkaid's. It was the best prime rib I had ever eaten. So often, prime rib comes with a large portion of fat attached to the meat, which means lots of waste. Not one ounce of fat on it! Cooked perfectly and delicious. The portion was generous too. Would highly recommend it. Good wine specials that evening too. Highly recommended!
Due to distance, it had been awhile since we'd dined at Kincaid's, but, I must say, it has been our loss. Our dinner on Sunday night, my birthday, was one of the best I have had in a long time. The food was delicious, the service was superb, and atmosphere friendly. Although we are leaving for the winter, come next spring we will make the effort to get to Kincaid's more often.
Kincaid's was exactly what we wanted for a small celebration. The soup-or-salad, half sandwich and dessert were perfect. Our server was attentive and friendly. We were unhurried in any way even though we stayed for 2 1/2 hours.
This restaurant is a long time favorite of mine and ours. The food this past year has returned to its glory with absolutel perfectly seasoned vegetables and entrees. Nothing beats the Maytag Salad and we truly loved the smoked salmon which was prepared and presented so well. We have celebrated many important events with Kincaids, but always enjoy dinner before all of the Minnesota Operas and other occasions at the Ordway. The Happy Hour in the bar is one of the best in downtown St. Paul.
The new menu was interesting with very good choices, I liked the size of the servings as I did not feel overwhelmed with a big pile of food on my plate. I felt the service was quite a bit slower than itas been in the past. The waiter was not overly friendly.
Both of us had the lobster bisque soup which was amazing - a large bowl with bits of lobster and sour cream at the bottom was filled with 8 oz of ambrosia. Our entrees were large salads. Hers topped with slices of moist chicken breast. Mine, the seafood salad, topped with 4 large marinated shrimp, crab, baby asparagus, and a delicately poached slab of salmon. Quite delicious and memorable. I will definitely return for the shrimp! Service was attentive but unobtrusive. The wine selections by the glass were what one would expect in a fine restaurant.
excellent dining experience. Very good food options and flavors
Good food, wine, service and setting. We cleaned our plates! .
Our server was amazing, made sure we had everything we needed and staged the food perfectly.
Great dinner plus we did the bar scene after our event to let the parking lot empty! Everything was wonderful. First time at the St. Paul Kincaid's -we're regulars in Bloomington!
We were headed to the Elton John concert at the excel center and were staying at the St. Paul Hotel. We needed to eat an early dinner and Kincaids was a perfect choice. Our server, Sarah, was knowledgable and efficient. The food was fabulous, wine list adequate, but the bourbon " pour" was not as generous as the St. Paul Grill.
Kincaid's was a wonderful place to dine recently before a concert at the Excel Center. Staff and service was fantastic. It was very loud and busy but enjoyable. My Mom's filet was ordered med well and arrived pretty rare...the small scallops were great, portion 4 for $29 was less than satisfying. The greens, sauce and potatoes were very yummy! The cheesecake was so smooth and fresh..one of the best I have ever had.
Wedding anniversary dinner. Great service - Good food. We were able to sit and talk after dinner without feeling rushed to leave to open up the table. I appreciate that.
Excellent food and ambiance, we remarked that the music was the perfect volume to contribute to the experience without hindering conversation. Great service.
The dining experience encompassed a combination of factors: 1) The food quality - All 3 dinners were exceptional 2) The service - our server Jim was very attentive and helpful in answering any of our questions concerning the food 3) Our reservation was handled very efficiently and was immediately available 4) Ambience - Very attractive atmosphere with outside views
Kincaid's staff went above and beyond to make our Thanksgiving get-together pleasant and enjoyable for the whole meal!
We had a wonderful dining experience at Kincaids on Thanksgiving Day. The food was fantastic and the service was friendly and professional. The desserts were heavenly.
There were 4 of us in our party. All dinners were delicious. There were many choices on the menu (except for walleye-maybe next time?) and since my daughter and son would be doing turkey the next day with his family, he and she were gladly able to choose an alternative. Service could not have been better. My son-in-law asked a question about prime rib and he received quite a treatise which helped him to make up his mind. Nice ambiance. Really nice touch-we got a validation for our parking. We would most definitely come again.
Something of a hidden gem tucked in among the modern, towering office buildings and stately older buildings, is Kincaids. The restaurant and bar have large windows that face a park and several historic buildings. The interior decor, along with the view can easily transport you to a time gone by when elegance and sophistication were abundant. To complete that transformation Kincaids master chefs consistently provide unique, tasty, and artfully presented fare. But it is the truly outstanding service start to finish that makes a casual lunch or a romantic dinner something to be remembered. There are at least two constants at Kincaids;a frequently varied menu with dishes to delight most any tastes, and their classy, truly superior service.
We took our son and daughter in law and our two grandchildren out for dinner on Thanksgivingevening Our grandchildren ( 11 and 13) are real foodies along with their parents. My husband and I are particular and especially for a special occasion our expectations are pretty high No one was disappointed in the least. Our server Renee was very enjoyable & prompt. Food wonderful. At our table we had two appetizers, varied salads. For entrée: scallops, prime rib, seafood etouffee, braised beef short ribs. Table was in the corner with window walls that looked out on the park across the street that was lit for the holidays. It was a magical evening. The Lawson Commons ramp was extremely convenient and parking for 2 hours was validated at Kincaids.
Great food, great service always a very nice place to dine
We went to Kincaids after the lighting of the Christmas tree in Rice Park. We had a group of six plus a baby. The whole experience was very pleasant and enjoyable. They were dealing with a huge rush, so the food took longer than most like it- but that's just what happens on big event nights. I like long waits so it doesn't feel like you are getting rushed out the door. My brother in law had a problem with his meal and they were very eager and helpful to fix it. Everything from appetizers to drinks to entrees to desserts (chocolate cake and cheesecake) was perfect.
As always, Kincaid's delivers as fabulous meal with great service and ambience!
The food was excellent, our server was wonderful, the drinks were fantastic. We will definitely be coming back!
Had a wonderful time at Kincaid's in St. Paul. We were celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary, and the ambiance was very special with the view of the Christmas tree lit outside and the skating rink. Food was very good, service was excellent. It was exactly what we were looking for.
We were dining with friends we hadn't seen for quite a while and found this a good location, pleasant holiday ambience with just the right noise level, great food and service. Because of these things we will return here in the future.
Prime rib was done perfectly, but was a bit fatty.
Despite the frigid cold temperatures outside, the atmosphere was warm and inviting within. The food was terrific as usual and the short walk to see Rice Park all dressed up for Christmas was like an early gift!
We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and were concerned that on Saturday December 7th Kincaid's would be packed. We had reservations for 7 pm which just happened to be the time two major holiday events were starting in St Paul. When we arrived the restaurant was only about 50% full. We had a great booth with a view of the lights in the park across the street and no "neighbors". Michael did a great job of keeping our evening moving without making us feel rushed, or waiting. I ordered the scallops which were fantastic. My wife decided on a pasta dish which she felt wasn't up to the normal standards of Kincaid's. It was just a little disappointing. Overall a great evening - topped off by a complimentary anniversary desert. We'll be back
Enjoyed how we were taken care of; dinner prior to attending the Ordway.
Kinkaids is our favorite special occasion place and we especially love it in the winter when the parks across the street are lit up in holiday splendor! Excellent seafood and steaks, cozy ambiance with tables positioned just right so you can have a conversation with your guests, and always a delight!
Loved the food, the portions were great and the seafood was fantastic. A bit pricy but worth it.

Ooh! gotta try this! Thanks for sharing. :)

so much cheaper than the hudu machine! there really isnt a limit other than the size of the hoop. You could even make a big one out of 2 by 2's id guess. I love this idea! it will save me so much money when i open my business. I will screenprint my own merchandise!

love the credit card tip! you can also use ordinary paper which sticks to the screen with the first pull of ink :-)
- February 20, 2012 at 7:48 AM
It's called a Yudu, not a hudu.. And as for the quality, well you all saw the flower. I will stick with my Yudu!

My problem is always cutting out the design, it turns out so messy. :/ But this looks really great!

Used gift cards (the plastic kind - think Walmart, Trader Joe's, etc.) would work just as well as credit cards. Easier to find too!

This comment is directed to the person who posted about the quality vs the yudo. This is an economical way to screenprint for those that don't want to invest in a lot of equipment. I am sure you love your Yudo, which is great, I am also sure that those that have used or owned 'commercial' screenprinting would see less quality in your Yudo. Don't be snarky. I own a commercial screener and see the value of this process and the Yudo.

You could use a cricut to cut out your design if you want something more intricate.
- March 22, 2012 at 10:45 AM
Tip: use double-sided sticky tape on a piece of taped down cardboard and stick your fabric to it... the fabric won't lift up when you take the hoop off. You can use it over and over again as long as it doesn't leave too much behind :)

I don't get it...How do you do this? Sorry I'm not very crafty but would love to try some cute stuff:)
- March 29, 2012 at 7:08 PM
- Avie said...
Just cut your design out of contact paper, stick it to your silk fabric that you have stretched in the hoop. Then use the credit card like a squeegee and push the ink through. - March 30, 2012 at 1:01 PM
- Lindyloo said...
Hi Avie,
thanks for this tip. Not needing to do screen printing very often, buying an expensive piece of equipment would be a total waste of money. This idea is perfect and works lovely. I am lucky enough to have the Cricut Expression and therefore I am able to cut out the designs a little easier.
This is also fantastic for upcycling fabric items too using fabric paints (try cushion covers, pillowcases even T-shirts etc).
Ignore those who are negative, your kindness in sharing allows others to try the techinque without a vast expense.
Many thanks Linda - April 1, 2012 at 3:37 PM
What a fantastic idea! I have been trying to think of ways to make a caterpillar tee for my little man's 2nd birthday party - now am going to try this.
As for the negative comments - if you don't have anything nice to say - keep quiet - April 8, 2012 at 2:05 PM
- Annie said...
People can be snarky...geesh. I personally love how this can be done with items already on hand. I am always interested in a lot of different art techniques and ideas and don't want to invest a lot every time an idea strikes. I think it would be interesting to see if sun printing / chemical burn outs would also help in making a design on the fabric to print. hmm...
- April 23, 2012 at 10:05 AM
Excellent idea! You can also use an old picture frame if you want to do something really really big - gets a bit tricky but certainly do-able. Make sure you have the fabric tight and tape around the inside to create a "Well" and nice clean edge for your print.
- April 26, 2012 at 6:36 PM
What is contact paper?? Sorry to those that know what it is. Just asking. :)
- May 4, 2012 at 1:29 PM
- Avie said...
Contact paper is adhesive paper that you can find at any store like walmart or target or even the grocery store.
avie - May 7, 2012 at 9:56 AM
If contact paper flower is cut out nd stuck to silk, how do u get the red flower in ur pic? Paint won't pass thru solid so u would get outline of flower? Sorry guess i'm not getting it? Would be good project for sunday school kidlet project. Thanks
- June 6, 2012 at 11:05 PM
- Avie said...
You would want to cut out the flower from the contact paper so that the contact paper keeps the ink off of the places you don't want it to show up.
So just cut out what you want to see printed.

Love this... one of the Girl Scout Moms had a Yudo & made some awesome quilt blocks for a swap in DC. This would allow us to do it for almost anything anywhere. THANKS
- June 15, 2012 at 10:26 PM
This looks great! I'd love to try it but - please forgive the silly question - what kind of silk do you use? The weave looks fairly open in the picture, is there a special fabric you buy? Or literally just silk that would be sold in a bolt in Joanns or hobby lobby?
- June 16, 2012 at 6:33 PM
- Avie said...
Jackie P,
I think you could use a standard synthetic silk that you would find at the fabric store. You may want to pick up a few samples and try them out before committing to one. It's such a small area that it won't take much fabric.
avie - June 18, 2012 at 8:18 AM
thank you, is a great and inexpensive way to try screen printing if you like then you will deside if you want to get more expensive tools.Do you know where to buy silk screen by the roll?
- June 26, 2012 at 2:42 AM
- Jamie said...
I love this! I've been "ghetto screenprinting" for a while with the cut out contact paper but I've had to cut it out each time. This is a great way to reuse your stencil. Genius I say! Thanks for sharing!!
- June 29, 2012 at 9:53 AM
- TheMissW said...
You can use any close knit sheer fabric..an old pair of hose that has run in an area that you slice (for a small project) or a silk like fabric (viole? sp?) as long as its stretched tight. I saw a version of this where modge podge was used as the 'resist' (the area that blocks the ink. you paint the modge podge where you DON'T want the ink to go using a stencil, let it dry, and then screen the ink through. )

- anita said...
I am a commercial printer and i use this on my screens all the time... i cut my vinyl contact paper right way up...peel out the design that i want to print...attach to my big screens and presto!! no chemicals...no expensive emulsion..
We do tons of last names on uniforms and i can get 10 names on 1 screen...very economical in my business!!!!
i have thousands of names/ designs that i will be uploading to my website soon.
thanks for sharing this great tip! - July 13, 2012 at 7:33 PM
I do a similiar method. Instead of using contact paper I brush Mod Podge onto fabric where I dont want the ink to go through. It takes awhile, but it's permanent. I make tshirts this way and sell them on etsy in my shop, NurseSarah78.

i will definately keep this in the "to do " file .. especially for vacation bible school . we are always looking for simple(ish) craft ideas for the kids at church .. as for the one who has the professional grade screen printing machine .. kudo's to you. not everyone can afford to pay for those machines and still love to be crafty. i agree with everyone else . don't be so negative . as for contact paper at walmart it's in the houseware dept with shelf liner . you can get a pretty good size roll for next to nothing . i use the clear contact paper also for laminating things . it's quicker and cheaper :)

Nice work, I'll be sure to give this a try!
- September 13, 2012 at 5:09 AM
Can you combine the contact paper and modpodge ideas.....cut out a reverse design on contact paper, apply to the screen, then apply midge pudge, and when dry, remove the contact paper for a more permanent screen? Mt problem with the midge pudge is that it doesn't leave crisp edges.

- February 13, 2013 at 10:23 AM
Thanks so much for posting this. I agree with many here about not being snarky. Fact is not everyone has the luxury of a Yudu or other machine, and most do not need one for the infrequent desire to screen something. I appreciate your insight and the fact you answered everyone's questions. With sincere thanks.
- March 19, 2013 at 8:18 PM
Great idea to introduce middle school students to screen printing without having to buy all the expensive equiptment for classes of 30!!
- March 20, 2013 at 6:55 AM
Hi, love this especially as a cheaper way of doing screen printing for children. However one question what silk do you use as I looked into making my own screens but the specialist silk for screen printing is very expensive. thanks
- March 23, 2013 at 5:45 AM
My son is looking to put some of his drawings on shirts for him and his skate crew. This is an inexpensive way for teens to do this on their own. I will try it for myself then have them try it

Love it! I'm going to use pantyhose instead of silk and use glue or modge podge for the image. Love love love it!
- May 6, 2013 at 2:09 AM
This may seem like a silly question, but which side do you put the contact paper on? the side that faces down on the fabric, or the side that you squirt/squeegie the paint on? Thanks.

For the people who are worried about messy cut-outs: I'm very uneven and messy when it comes to cutting with scissors, so generally I'll use rulers and a box-cutter to trace the lines of the design. I have rounded rulers but if you don't mugs and overturned bowls also work!

AURORA — The Aurora police department on Monday night honored more than than 100 people — officers, detectives, crime scene investigators, victims advocates — for their efforts during last summer's theater shooting.
All were recognized during a private ceremony. They could discuss the heroics in only general terms, due to a judge's gag order in the murder case. James Holmes is awaiting trial on 166 counts of murder, attempted murder and other crimes for the July 20 shootings, which left 12 dead and 58 wounded by gunfire.
Among the officers awarded the department's distinguished service cross, because they "distinguished themselves by demonstrating exceptional bravery despite imminent risk of serious bodily injury or death," were Officer Jason Oviatt, who arrested and searched Holmes outside the theater; Officer Justin Grizzle and Sgt. Gerald Jonsgaard, who went inside the theater as others rushed out, looking to help the wounded; and Officer Aaron Blue, who drove dying gunshot victims to the hospital.
Others who won the meritorious service ribbon for their "diligence and perseverance" were Detectives Todd Fredericksen and Matthew Ingui, who interviewed many victims and witnesses; Detective Randy Hansen, who reviewed 911 calls and questioned theater employees; and Detective Craig Appel, the lead detective on the case.

Arts of Ministry (AM)
The Art of Preaching (AM-575)
Mondays, from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m., beginning September 9
Combining the substance of an introduction with the intimacy of a workshop, this course will explore theological and rhetorical foundations for preaching and provide practical experience in delivery and critique. Noting variety among denominational, theological and cultural traditions, the course will take an ecumenical approach rooted by an affirmation of the hermeneutic centrality of Scripture and the liturgical significance of preaching. Students will complete written assignments and special exercises, preach, and offer constructive critiques of sermons.

Doctor of Ministry (DM)
Doctor of Ministry Colleague Seminar I (DM-710)
Retreat-Sunday, Sept. 8 from 3:00pm to 9:00pm. Five Mondays from 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Sep 9, Oct. 7, Oct. 28, Nov. 11, Dec. 2 Dec. 16 (Make-up day if needed)
The first of your Colleague Seminar courses explores the social and contextual challenges within American religious life, and innovative responses to them through readings, guest presentations, and collegial sharing. Following each of the course sessions, students will reflect on the relevance and salience of the challenges and strategic adaptations for their own ministry settings and how this engages fundamental theological issues from the perspective of their personal beliefs and within their specific faith tradition. The culmination of the course is a paper in which a student identifies a specific situation in their ministry setting that they believe, based on course readings and experiences, needs to be changed; propose a realistic change outcome; discusses possible action strategies for realizing the desired change; and identifies the salient theological themes and tenets at stake in the situation and change process. Required of first-year D.Min. students

Ethics (ET)
Understanding Moral Blinders* (ET-659) |
Tuesdays, from 9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Sept. 10, Oct. 8, Oct. 29, Nov. 12, Dec. 3, Dec. 17 (Make-up day if needed)
"What were they thinking?" It's what we often ask ourselves when people do something obviously wrong and obviously selfdefeating. Examples abound in public life from politicians to financial officers to disgraced leaders of major nonprofits to failed religious leaders. Why do people who ought to know better do the wrong thing and, in many cases, fail to recognize fully what and that they did wrong? Why do people make bad decisions? Can we learn to avoid their mistakes? The answers to these questions are the focus of the course. One theological answer is self-deception that epitomizes the problem of sin. We will look at a variety of specific ways we stumble into self-deception including rationalization, indifference, arrogance, misplaced loyalty and unchallenged organizational/cultural assumptions. A combination of readings from a variety of disciplines (e.g., ethics, theology, cognitive science, organizational leadership, etc.) along with numerous examples (including those of the class participants) will inform lively class discussion as we work together to sharpen our recognition of blinders and consider how to help others and ourselves to avoid them.

Religion and Society (RS)
Religion as a Social Phenomenon: The Sociological Study of Religion* (RS-536)
View Syllabus |
Buy Books |
Online, beginning September 3
All religion is a social phenomenon. Although faith has a private dimension, human beings experience religion in groups or through forms created by social organizations. Every religion creates and is maintained by institutionalized rituals or concrete organizational forms. Professed beliefs are passed down by religious traditions, and ideally, these beliefs have consequences for one's social behavior. Religious life has spawned times of war and times of peace; changed human beings and human history. Each of these social dimensions of religion can be investigated with the research methods of the social scientist. Much can be learned about religion from a sociological perspective, from reading classical sociological theories of religious organization and practice including those of Weber, Durkheim, and Marx.
Scott Thumma Professor of Sociology of Religion and Director, Doctor of Ministry Program
The Arab Spring: Revolution and Religion* (RS-635) |
Tuesdays, from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., beginning September 3
This course closely examines the riveting, religio-social and political phenomena of the contemporary Arab Spring. From the selfimmolation of the lone vegetable vendor of Tunisia, to the protracted conflict of Syria, this course closely covers the aspects of change brought by the Arab Spring, in regards to nationalisms, secularism, sectarianism, civil rights, identity and Islamism and inters Arab Christian/ Muslim relations. Varied Arab, US and European support for the Arab Spring is uncovered. Reference is made to earlier Arab Spring-Lebanese and Palestinian- movements as well. Some lectures will be supplemented by visitors from the corresponding countries.
George Hajjar Adjunct Professor of Islamic Studies
Contemporary Religion and Public Life* (RS-659)
Three weekends in Herndon, Virginia: September 13-15, October 11-13, and November 8-10 Fridays 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., Saturdays 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Sunday 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
This course will look behind the headlines that speak of the religious resurgence in contemporary politics and examine the thorny issues that arise when the boundaries between the "church" and "state" inevitably collide. What is "religion" and what is its place in late modern societies? What is unique and problematic about religious participants in public life? And what do perceptions of religion tell us about the constantly shifting "rules of the game" in contemporary democratic societies? These questions will be at the core of our examination of theoretical engagements with the concepts of religion, secularism, modernity, tradition, democracy and human rights. Our case studies will be from American and global contexts.
Timur Yuskaev Assistant Professor of Contemporary Islam
Scripture (SC)
Hebrew Bible I* (SC-519)
Thursdays, from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., beginning September 5
An introduction to the Hebrew Scriptures, this course will apply historical-critical methods of study to develop a framework for understanding the origins of the texts and the relationship of the texts to one another. Attention will be given to contemporary theories of biblical interpretation. Survey I will cover the materials in the Torah and Prophets (Genesis-Kings).
Uriah Kim Academic Dean and Associate Professor of Hebrew Bible
New Testament Survey* (SC-531)
Tuesdays, from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., beginning September 3
What is the New Testament? Who are its authors? Why these texts? What was going on when they were written? And for whom? How are these texts read today? Does context really matter? This course, which explores the New Testament texts in a broad, survey fashion, will tackle these questions (and many more!). We will read the biblical texts closely, critically, and constructively, and engage in literary and rhetorical inquiry. We will also incorporate several types of biblical methods and lenses that are used in New Testament scholarship such as feminist, womanist, and postcolonial criticism (to name a few).
Shanell T. Smith Assistant Professor of New Testament and Christian Origins
The Current State of Hadith Studies* (SC-539)
Online, beginning September 3
Hadith are "reports" about the Prophet Muhammad and are the primary means of knowing his Sunna. The normative nature of the Sunna is well-established in the Qur'ān and was supported by the conservative culture of seventh-century Arabian society. At the same time, the authority of the Sunna was not uncontested in early Muslim society. More seriously, the misattribution of statements to the Prophet Muhammad was recognized to be a problem as early as the first century of Islam. As a result, a major effort to collect, scrutinize, evaluate and organize hadith was undertaken by generations of hadith scholars. In parallel to this effort, legal scholars developed and refined their various approaches to the sources of the law, and arrived at different assessments of the legal value of various hadith. In the early Modern period, hadith scholarship came under new scrutiny, in light of historical-critical methods developed primarily by European scholars, often working in a climate hostile to Islam and Muslim bases of knowledge. Simple apologetic responses to the Orientalists have been replaced in recent decades with new efforts on the part of Muslim and non-Muslim scholars to use new technologies and the information in recently discovered manuscripts to re-evaluate the historicity of the collected hadith. For their part, legal modernists have struggled to establish a consistent approach to the use of hadith in their deliberations.
Feryal Salem Assistant Professor of Islamic Scriptures and Law
Major Themes of the Bible and the Qur'ān* (SC-634)
Mondays, from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m., beginning September 9
This course will study in depth the worldviews of the Hebrew Bible [Old Testament], the New Testament and the Qur'ān. This will be done through an examination of common and divergent themes in the three Scriptures. More specifically, we shall study the three major themes of Revelation, Creation and Salvation. Within this framework, we shall pay special attention to such major themes as mercy, love and justice, atonement, sin and forgiveness, and the theology of creation, redemption and eschatology.
Mahmoud Ayoub Faculty Associate in Islam and Christian-Muslim Relations
Theology (TH)
The Triune God: Basic Trends in the Christian Doctrine of God* (TH-608)
Wednesday, 4:30 – 7:30 pm, starting September 4
For many non-Christians, and sometimes Christians as well, one of the most puzzling and controversial teachings in Christian faith is the claim that God is triune in nature: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This course aims to explore the biblical, historical, and philosophical contexts that drove Christians to develop an understanding of God as Trinity. It first unpacks the biblical roots of the church's encounter and experience of God as creating Father, redeeming Son, and sanctifying Spirit. It then traces the historical development of this churchly spiritual experience into an intellectual trinitarian theology by investigating some major Christian discourses and trends considered to be milestones on the long historical track of the doctrine of the Trinity in Christianity. The course will also try to look at the relation between the doctrine of the Trinity and some contemporary issues pertinent to today's world. This will be pursued by discussing carefully and arguing critically some primary theological texts on the Trinity and reflecting on their implications for today.
Dr. Najib Awad Associate Professor of Christian Theology
Christian-Muslim Encounter: The Theological Dimension* (TH-663)
Buy Books |
Syllabus | Flyer
October 27-November 1, 2013, in Houston, Texas Times: Sunday, October 27, 7:00 – 9:00 PM; Monday – Thursday, October 28 – October 31, 9:00 AM – 5:30 PM; Friday, November 1, 9:00 AM – Noon
This course explores the complexity of Christian and Muslim theological interpretation of each other, and of themselves in light of the other, in various times and contexts. Students will examine the themes, genres, and strategies of Christian-Muslim theological engagement from the 7th century CE to the present, with particular attention to the 21st-century dialogue of Christian and Muslim scholars known as the Building Bridges seminars. Thus, this course will facilitate what Francis Clooney means by comparative theology: an endeavor which "combines tradition-rooted theological concerns with actual study of another tradition." And, following John Renard, it will define theological concerns broadly: including, of course, understandings of God, revelation, and the divine-human economy; but also the "panoply of texts and images and the various modes of interpreting them; ways of reasoning and analysis of human 'religious' experience; modes of expression, whether verbal or visual, of that experience; and the host of institutional and cultural developments that have formed the settings and contexts for all such interpretation, processing, and expression."
Students will be expected to attend all sessions and to take their turn at leading class discussion. Up to ten hours of online work may be required in addition to the week of intensive classroom time. This may take such forms as watching a webcast or taking part in a webinar, an online discussion, or a conference call.

Holiness in Time and Space: An Introduction to Jewish Tradition and Spirituality* (WS-623)
Tuesdays from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m., beginning September 3 (14 sessions)
The Jewish people are called to consecrate both time and space, the two pillars of a this-worldly spirituality. After an introduction to Jewish identity and vocation, the focus will shift to the Sabbath and other holy days in the Jewish calendar. The metaphysical dimension of these holy times will be examined along with the behavioral norms and rituals associated with the festivals. Next, the sacred dimension of space/place/land will be addressed, with specific reference to the "Holy Land," Jerusalem/Al-Quds, and Hebron/Al-Khalil. The political disputes over holy places and cities in Israel/Palestine will be considered from aspiritual perspective linking the Jewish experience with Christian and Muslim sensibilities.
Yehezkel Landau Associate Professor of Interfaith Relations
Prayer in a World of Diversity* (WS-657) |
Mondays, from 5:25 p.m. to 9:15 p.m., beginning September 9 (11 sessions)
This course will expose participants to prayer practices from a variety of faith traditons and other cultural contexts to facilitate our understanding of their unique distinctiveness; and will introduce rituals and prayers imbued with the spirit of mystics and seers within those distinctive traditions, so that we might experience how praying together in a world of diversity can create community and deepen cross-cultural relationships.

Yerba mate: Is it safe to drink?
A friend suggested that I try yerba mate tea to boost my energy. What is yerba mate? Is it safe?
from Katherine Zeratsky, R.D., L.D.
The leaves and twigs of the yerba mate plant are dried, typically over a fire, and steeped in hot water to make an herbal tea. This beverage, commonly known simply as mate, is popular in parts of South America. Like black tea, yerba mate contains caffeine, which is a stimulant.
In the U.S. yerba mate is widely available in health food stores and online. Proponents of yerba mate say that it can relieve fatigue, promote weight loss, ease depression, and help treat headaches and various other conditions. There's no definitive evidence that these claims are valid.
Yerba mate isn't likely to pose a risk for healthy adults who occasionally drink it. However, some studies indicate that people who drink large amounts of yerba mate over prolonged periods may be at increased risk of some types of cancer, such as cancer of the mouth, esophagus and lungs. Smoking in combination with yerba mate seems to greatly increase the cancer risk.
One possible explanation is that mate contains polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which are known to be carcinogenic. (Tobacco smoke and grilled meat also contain PAHs.) More investigation needs to be done into the safety and side effects of mate.
If yerba mate is your cup of tea, enjoy it in moderation. But, as always, check with your doctor before trying any herbal product.

Suede boots and shoes have a rich luxurious appearance which lifts any outfit. Suede leather is leather, simply reversed so it is water resistant and once scotch guarded can be worn in any weather. To clean, simply use a suede brush and re scotch-guard to bring that luscious look back.

Has anyone bought from this site? I see quite a few things that I want from play-asia.com, but I wanted to see if anyone had done business with them before.

Top notch - never had a problem.

Only ordered from them once, but as ClubNinja said, top notch. Just remember to uncheck the box to get newsletters, I've been getting them since I ordered a year ago and haven't ever read a single one. I know, I could easily unsubscribe, but it goes to my junk box anyway.
I bought from them twice in the past year (Katamari Damacy OST and Daigasso! Band Brothers) and I'm really happy with both purchases. The CD is legit, not a pirate. Shipping is very cheap, yet very fast. Really do recommend it.
Bought from them quite a bit lately, no problems at all. Great prices too. I'm probably going to place another order there in the next couple days in fact.
Another thumbs up!!
Zelda is NOT an RPG.
Purchased something from them (forgetting what it is ATM) but there were no problems and they are pretty spiffy peoples.
Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

I've ordered from them twice, and while I agree that the shipping is fact and the service great, be prepared to wait ages if something is backordered. Be prepared to see other things, already in stock for your order, disappear and be shuffled off to fulfill other people's orders more quickly, and then be prepared to wait as those things are backordered as well. It can be a little frustrating, but they have a good selection and dandy prices. On the balance of it, though, any future game music CDs I order from Japan will be, whenever possible, through Amazon.co.jp.
Yeah, I've ordered from them on many occasions, and I've got Pop'n Music 11 on the way at this very moment. I'd recommend going with EMS shipping, which gets handled by USPS once it hits the USA. Their cheapest air economy shipping took a good 2 weeks for just a little Gameboy game once. Heh.
They're great, I love how they provide you with $5 off coupons when you receive your order.
Yes, I bought something from them at least a year ago, and everything went smoothly. I would order from them again in a heartbeat.
I've ordered from them 10+ times, and I have never had any problems with them. Recommended.
Just recieved a package from them on Monday containing a few PSP Accessories. Never any problems and I keep going back.
One of my favorite importers.
EMS is good when your spending quite a bit of money on the site. For small orders I use Airmail since the EMS shipping is 9/10 times more than the total price of my order.Originally Posted by davidbrit2
Only thing I would suggest about Airmail shipping is to use the "Airmail Box" instead of the bubble mailer since it offers much better protection. It's a great idea considering it spends alot of time in transit.
I'll just add my two cents and say I've ordered from them multiple times over the past few years and I've never had a problem with them. Everything always arrived safely and in great shape.
I second using the airmail box too. I hardly trust "bubble envelopes" when I've got something traveling across the Pacific. And it varies on how long it takes. Sometimes it takes over two weeks to get my package, but I just got an order in the other day and it arrived in just about a week. Not bad.
I,ve ordered a few things from them and found the prices to ge good, shipping costs are excellent and the custimer service is top notch!
Highly recommended.
Gotta have it all!!!
My Game Collection:
Just throwing my 2 cents in... They rule! I've also ordered from them before and had no problems or complaints at all.
Okay, thanks guys! I always like to check with other people just to see if a site is good. I remember the hatred that surfaced long ago when I asked if Buy-Rite was a reliable site.
Thanks again!

Nothing but good experiences for me, as well. Orders are shipped promptly, well-packaged, and arrive on time.
Also of note for Canadian customers - if you email their customer support after placing your order, and ask if they can declare the package as one-half its real (actual) value, they will do just that. Quite handy for dodging customs fees!
I ordered my Mushihimesama from them. Great transaction. I was satisfied that I just ordered Twinkle Star Sprites.
Let me know how Mushihimesama is. I see you have an Espgaluda avatar, great game. I just got Twinkle Star Sprites. It's very cool but just be aware that it's NOT really a sequel, it's more of a remake with new graphics and characters. Still a good purchase though.Originally Posted by TurboGenesis
Zelda is NOT an RPG.
Mushihimesama is really good. Its a little easier or less manic than the typical cave game. The music is really great too. I might consider getting the sound track. The scoring trick is pretty much keep shooting enemies so the counter keeps going up. If your not hitting an enemy then it starts to drop. Otherwise a great game! I suggest playing in manic mode over original as the arrange mode is also defult in manic mode. Ultra mode is just too insane for me!Originally Posted by Leroy
Keeping on topic
I'm going to also be preordering Raiden III from play asia too.

"Charles? Charles?" called Vermillyum, standing at the door of the carriage house, "Yo' in thereh somewhere, Charles?"
"Overh here, Vermillyum," said Charles swallowing, "Ah wuz jest checkin' thu quality of thu shelac thinner. Whut can Ah do fo' yo', Mah Li'll' Southurn Songsparrow?"
"Fo' starters, Charles, yo' might consider thet our carriage, which used to be so shiny and bright, has been sittin' out in thu yard everh since yo' decided to turn our carriage house into yo'r boat shop. Yo' said at thu time that it wuz only fo' a little while, but Ah noticed thet there is a small tree growin' up through thu floor of thu carriage. When, eezactly can we get thu carriage back in hereh?"
"Why, Mah Li'll' Antebellum Belle, yo' know Ah want to restore ourh carriage to its full glory, but 'til Ah get finished wiff thu new dingy thereh's not much spare room in hereh!..."
"Charles! Thereh aint 'nuff room to swing uh cat in this hoot-hog's nest yo' maintain fo' yo' workshop! It's im-possible to see any one of thu fourh walls, the ceilling is beein' used fo' scrap lumber storage, an' thu whole place is knee-deep in wood shavin's! Yo' can't find anythin' in this churnin' sea of trash!"
"Thet aint so!" Charles protested, "Why right overh thereh under thet heap of useful broken boards is thu hammer Ah dropped on thu day Jefferson Davis was ee-nog-grated. ...Oh, an' be careful whereh yo' walk, Mah Li'll' Honey Bun, thereh's a anvil somewhere under them wood shavings on thu floor!"
"Charles! Yo' need some ordur brought into this workshop of yo'rs! Ah am goin' to help yo' tidy up thu place!"
Charles looked dismayed, "Thet's not really necessary, Mah Li'll' Winsome Weevil! Ever'thin' in this hereh workshop has a place in thu scheme of construction, an' movin' thangs could seriously inner-rupt thu work-flow!"
"Some thin's seem sue-purfluous, Charles... Fo' instance, Ah jest noticed thet calendar on thu wall overh yo' workbench. At furst Ah thought it wuz a gynocological chart, but Ah sees now thet it's pictur' of uh lady calls herseff, 'Miz January.' ...Hummp! ...Sittin' on thet cake of ice, 'Miz January' better get some mo' clothes befor' she freezes her assets...!"
Vermillyum moved through the carriage house picking up objects, Charles followed closely, putting each one back. "Vermillyum!" Charles, sighed, "If'n yo' sort mah thangs Ah'll neverh be able to fine' nuthin!"
"Yes yo' will, Charles," said Vermillyum primly, "Fo' instance, if yo' happen to need a ol' paintbrush dried solid wiff varnish it will be in this box along wiff twenty-five just like it.
"An' there! Instead of seven or eight different boxes of screws Ah poured them all together in one bucket, handy fo' yo' to get to!
"An all these tools need sortin'! See! Tools that look like thu letter T-- hammers an' hatchets an' thet pick-axe, can go overh hereh; an' pointy tools like screw drivers an' chisels an' nails can all go overh hereh!
"All these cans of sticky stuff like paint an' varnish an' glue can go on thu shelf--thu ones wiff thu tops left off can be stored on their sides 'cause they dried solid.
"An' 'nuther thing Ah bin wunderin' 'bout, Charles..."
"Whut's thet, Vermillyum?"
"All them clamps yo' bin buyin'! Don't yo' 'spect yo' got 'bout enuff clamps now?"
Charles stopped, motionless. He opened his mouth, then closed it again. He looked at the ceilling and mumbled, "Yes, Lawd, Ah will remember thet Ah love her..."
Then turning to Vermillyum, "...No, not quite enuff; but thank yo' for askin'"
Vermillyum found a broom and began sweeping the wood shavings, "Maybe this sorting would go faster if we could sweep up these piles of shavings an' actually see thu floor...EEEK! CHARLES! WHUT IS THAT?"
"OH MAH GOODNESS!" shouted Charles, throwing Vermillyum over his shoulder and running for the door, "IT IS A GIANT MUTATED RAT!
Half way to the house, bouncing on Charles' shoulder, Vervillyum asked, "Charles, are yo' sure that thet wasn't a ol' dried up dead racoon?"
"Nope!" said Charles resolutely, "Thet wuz one of them big, evil, mutated rats! Mah Li'll' Happy Helper, Ah think I'd feel a lot better if yo'd stay away from thu carriage house fo' a long time till Ah get thu rat situation under control..."

Phi Lambda Sigma, the Pharmacy Leadership Society, is active in more than 76 pharmacy schools across the nation. Its mission is simple: fostering leadership and service in an ever-changing pharmacy profession. As members of PLS, you will have the opportunity to network with an extraordinary group of individuals who have become leaders in the profession of pharmacy, in their communities, and around the world. Phi Lambda Sigma is a distinct privilege that only a few students receive, and its membership is based on peer recognition. There is no greater honor that one can receive other than being recognized as a leader by peers.
Students interested should apply after their third year in the pharmacy program.
Each member is tapped for membership in Phi Lambda Sigma because of the outstanding qualities of leadership and service that they have demonstrated in the profession of pharmacy. The symbol of the society is the key that members receive. It bears a mortar and pestle, long recognized as the symbol of the ethical pharmacist. The mortar and pestle, which bears the letters of Phi Lambda Sigma, is surrounded by a wreath of laurel, symbolic of leadership and wisdom. The date of our founding, 1975, appears below the mortar and pestle. Our colors are green and gold; green, symbolizing strength, and gold, symbolizing fineness of character.
Healthy Halloween is an annual event that invites elementary school children to campus where our organization can teach them about healthy eating and safety during the Halloween season. We collaborate with various organizations on campus, each of which sets-up a station with various crafts and lessons for the children to enjoy. Phi Lambda Sigma looks forward to working with the other organizations and to giving back to the community every year.

Critical Essays
Although Mary Karr is known because of her memoirs, she regards herself as primarily a poet. She published her first poem in Mother Jones magazine, and her poems appear regularly in The New Yorker, The Atlantic, Poetry, and American Poetry Review. Eschewing the ornamentation of New Formalism (against which she inveighed in her essay "Against Decoration"), Karr writes poems that explore in plain style the daily struggles of balancing the needs of the flesh with the desires of the spirit, of staying sane and fending off madness, and of trying to discern light in the midst of darkness. Her poems often deal with family and friendship but are not sentimental, and they often are melancholic or deal with the topic of depression but do not descend into the jagged chasms of madness that characterize poems dealing with these topics by poets such as Anne Sexton. In her poetry as in her memoirs, Karr strives to create meaning out of the random disorder of the universe. In each of her collections of poems, Karr wrestles with the depravity of human nature and the mysteries of the divine love that has the power to transform and redeem individuals. Karr's poems deal with loss and despair, hope and deliverance.
Karr's very short first volume of poems, Abacus, appeared in the Wesleyan New Poets series, an indication of the confidence that many established poets had in her craft. On the...

First TV role, a guest appearance on the U.K. series "Doctors" |
Made theatrical debut at 15 as a member of the National Youth Music Theatre in "The Ballad of Solomon Peavy" |
Born Aug. 20, 1981 in London, England, Barnes made his theatrical debut at 15 as a member of the National Youth Music Theatre in "The Ballad of Solomon Peavy" and appeared in several other productions with the company until 2003. He graduated from Kingston University with a degree in Drama and English in 2004, and began making the rounds on British and American television. Among his credits during this period was "Split Decision" (2006), an unsold pilot about high school life that was shot in Canada for The CW Network. Barnes was also featured in a supporting role as the younger version of Nathaniel Parker's character in Matthew Vaughn's fantasy feature "Stardust" (2007), which was met with much derision by critics.
Barnes enjoyed a substantial career on the London stage in a variety of plays, which culminated in a turn as the manipulative Dakin in the 2006-07 production of the Tony Award-winning "History Boys." However, Barnes received an offer in 2007 from the producers of "The Chronicles of Narnia" to essay Prince Caspian in the 2008 sequel and two subsequent films based on the C.S. Lewis fantasy series. He subsequently departed the tour prior to the end of his contract, which generated some harsh criticism in the press from his employers at the National Theatre. Regardless, Barnes headed to New Zealand to begin filming "Prince Caspian" for director Andrew Adamson. As Caspian, the Narnian prince who summons the Pevensie children (the heroes of the "Narnia" series) to return to the mythical land to aid him in preventing an evil king from usurping his throne, Barnes was central to the film's massive advertising campaign, and his appearance resulted in a small army of devoted fan sites.
"Caspian" wasn't Barnes' only film for 2008 - he was also top-billed as a Russian who falls in with bad company after arriving in London in "Bigga Than Ben." It was soon followed by another leading role, this time in Stephan Elliot's film version of the Noel Coward comedy "Easy Virtue." Barnes played a young Englishman who introduces his parents to the American girl (Jessica Biel) he has married on a whim in France. The year ended with Barnes returning to New Zealand to begin work on the third Narnia film, "The Voyage of the Dawn Treader," which was expected for a 2010 release.
