United Methodists in Nepal Host Women and Youth Event
Greetings to you in the name of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
The Lord has been so faithful and wonderful. I'd like to thank United Methodist Women very much for your prayers and financial support. Without your willingness to assist and trust in us, our two events would have never been possible. Finally we could successfully hold women and youth events in this year 2011.
I'm thankful too to the people who volunteered during the two events. The presence of United Methodist Women regional missionary Emma Cantor was truly a blessing. The methods of her teaching and dealing with the women and youth were incredible.
There were a total of 153 women gathered for the event from 32 local churches. From morning to late night we had various programs, such as devotion, Bible studies, group discussions, sharings and a talent show. The women totally forgot their household chores and indulged in the presence of God. Some of them cried desperately and confessed their infirmities, and they came out courageously to be part of God's witness. Let us pray and trust that these women will go with new dimensions and live to bless others. Women shared their experiences on the third day and we were enormously moved and blessed.
There were also 159 youth at the event. They were taught from various Bible passages to become more radical for Jesus Christ. They were involved in various activities, such as group discussions, sports and a talent show. On the final day, during the time of confessions, renewal and commitment almost everybody wept in the presence of God. They have committed their life to witness Christ in their locality. The Spirit of God moved marvelously in the hearts of the youths.
The women and youth belong to various ethnic groups, tribes and Dalits. Dalits are oppressed from society and are neglected from every possibility. Women are mostly farmers and housewives. Many of them are deprived from education and opportunities to learn life skills. Poverty also hinders their elevation. Both the women and youth were joyful at the event, and for this I am grateful. Through the direction and advice of Ms. Cantor, the women of The United Methodist Church of Nepal had an election for organization officers. Nine women were elected from each district.
In the coming days we will work together for the expansion of God's Kin-dom and brighten the future of the women and youth. There are many needs to be met among the women and youth, such as education, life skills, theological understanding, family ministries, alleviating poverty, health, ending violence against women and leadership development. We accept these challenges and vow to develop the work of God in Nepal. To learn more about us you can visit UMC Nepal on Facebook.
Meena Moktan Thakali is chairperson of the Ministries Committee on Women, Youth and Children for The United Methodist Church of Nepal.

I was worried when I ordered this that it was going to look really cheap because I knew it was plastic (since it lit up), but I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of it. The personalization is done very well and I can't wait to give these to my board tomorrow at our final meeting of the year!
It is what it is.

It looks rather cheap, but is fine for the purpose. The engraving/printing on the plate was nice.

Craig Bohl saw the figure standing behind a fourth-floor motel window as plain as day. He could tell the figure was peering through a set of binoculars, observing his North Dakota State football practice being held about 200 yards away.
Was it a spy from Sam Houston State – the team NDSU will play in Saturday's Football Championship Subdivision national title game?
Bohl, good friends with Sam Houston State head coach Willie Fritz, didn't think so. Nonetheless, a Bison official went running to the motel's front desk to check it out.
False alarm. It was only a curious Bison season-ticket holder.

It didn't happen last week. It happened in 1992.
Tuesday, Forever Wild is being presented to voters again. The program, which uses state funds to buy undeveloped land to be preserved for public uses such as hunting, hiking and birdwatching, was originally approved for a 20-year period. That period officially ended Oct. 1; the Nov. 6 amendment would give it another 20-year run.
The original Forever Wild movement drew a wide range of supporters, from gun enthusiasts to business advocates to environmental groups. The Anniston Star tracked down some of the supporters from that first Forever Wild campaign to find out what they think of their vote. A lot has changed in politics since 1992, but none of the amendment's long-ago supporters — with one major exception — expressed any regrets.
"Forever Wild has an enduring value that will last for generations," said Beth Stewart, director of the Cahaba River Society.
Forever Wild was largely the creation of Doug Ghee, a lawyer who practices in Anniston. Back in 1992 when Ghee was a state legislator, he co-authored an amendment to allocate money from state leases on oil and gas revenues, up to $15 million per year, and create a fund that could buy environmentally sensitive land from willing sellers and preserve it for recreational use.
It seemed like a win-win situation. Environmentalists could be assured the land would be preserved. Hunters would have more places to hunt. Nobody was forced to give up any property. And the gas leases weren't technically a tax — something the public was allergic to.
"It was very creative for the time," Ghee said. "That's the reason I think it passed overwhelmingly."
It drew wide support. Campaign finance documents from 1992 show that the pro-amendment campaign drew more than $100,000 in support — from AmSouth bank, from gun clubs, from a metal fabrication company and from environmental groups.
When the vote came, 83 percent of Alabamians said yes to the amendment.
One thing that made the 1992 amendment less intimidating to voters was its sunset clause — a measure that would end funding for the program on Oct. 1, 2012. That's why it's on the ballot again this week.
So far, the 2012 campaign for Forever Wild looks like the 1992 campaign on steroids. Campaign documents filed last week show that the 2012 campaign brought in more than $500,000, with big gifts from a wide range of groups. The nonprofit McWane Foundation gave $25,000 in the last month, and so did the publishing company EBSCO. Hunting clubs and environmental groups such as the Alabama Wildlife Federation also gave.
But many of the 1992 donors don't show up on the 2012 list. What happened to those original supporters?
New focus on campus
Nobody at the University of Alabama seems to recall what happened to the student chapter of the Alabama Conservancy, which gave $50 to the 1992 campaign.
Geology professor Doug Haywick said the university has a permanent Student Sustainability Council. As for other student enviromental groups, he's seen them come and go.
"They spring up when there's a clear threat to something students can see, or when then there's a strong personality that can get them moving," Haywick said.
Students are eager to get involved when environmental issues are local, affecting wetlands or public space on campus, he said. And they're increasingly aware that environmentally friendly changes are also money-savers for the school and student organizations.
"In the last couple of years, the issue has been recycling," he said. "In this economy, people are interested in things that save money."
Jeffrey Gill, a senior majoring in mechanical engineering, is a member of the sustainability council and part of the recycling effort. He said he's for Forever Wild, but hasn't seen student movement in favor of it.
"It seems like a win-win to me," he said. "But nobody's out there organizing. Everyone seems to like Forever Wild, and I can't imagine it being overturned."
Stewart, of the Cahaba River Society, said she wasn't sure whether her group's board of directors had agreed to give money to the Forever Wild effort this time around. But Stewart said the group is in favor of the measure.
Stewart said that since the 1990s, the state has seen an explosion of groups like the River Society, largely because people are more aware of the natural resources in their own areas.
"The lakes, the coasts, are close to their heart," she said.
Forever Wild played a part in that awareness, she said, and it's one reason why she expects support for the amendment to be strong.
Stewart said that since the 1990s, enviornmental groups have become more willing to form exactly the sort of across-the-aisle partnerships that made Forever Wild work.
"We collaborate with people in development, and we'll work with the Department of Transportation," she said.
James Moses, director of the Alabama State Pistol and Rifle Association, said his group didn't give to the Forever Wild campaign because it seemed to be well-funded already.
"I saw all those ads on television and I figured they were doing well," he said.
Moses' group, the Alabama affiliate of the NRA, supported the amendment with a donation in 1992. This time, it's pushing the measure in its newsletter and trying to get gun owners out to vote.
Moses said he's very happy with what Forever Wild has done.
"If hunting has a future in this country, it's probably going to be on public land," he said.
Impact on business
The Business Council of Alabama isn't listed among the 1992 contributors to the amendment campaign, but press accounts from the time name the group as an advocate of Forever Wild.
The BCA, too, is endorsing the measure for another go-round.
"Tourism is something that has a large impact on business in the state," said Nathan Lindsay, a spokesman for BCA.
Lindsay provided figures suggesting that hunting and fishing have a $2.2 billion impact on the state.
Notasulga resident Frank Dillman isn't listed as a 1992 campaign donor, but he said he voted for the amendment. He won't be supporting the measure in 2012.
Dillman spent Friday morning in Montgomery, filing campaign finance materials for his PAC, Not Forever Wild, which seems to be the only group in the state dedicated solely to stopping the amendment.
"The state is not being forthright with the voters," Dillman said. He sees the measure as needless government spending in a time of tight budgets and deep social problems.
"I don't need big government, and using hunters as an excuse to get more big government is wrong," he said.
Dillman's finance reports show about $2,700 in total fundraising. He said he's spent the money on yard signs and a few billboards. He says he cares about the environment, but doesn't want to see the government buying up private land.
"Do government trees provide any better air than trees on private land?" he said.
He said the he grew disenchanted with Forever Wild after realizing how much the wording of the amendment resembles the wording of Agenda 21, an international sustainability plan drafted in 1992. Agenda 21 has become a flashpoint for some conservative activists who see it as an attempt to infringe on property rights.
Taken for granted
Ghee laughs when he hears talk of a link between Agenda 21 and Forever Wild. He notes that amendment was drafted and debated in 1990 and 1991, a year before Agenda 21 was drafted.
The political world is much more polarized now than it was then, he said.
"It was passed by a Democratic Legislature, and while it didn't have to be signed by the governor, a Republican governor supported it," he said.
Ghee thinks the amendment can still pull in support across party lines in a way that other measures can't.
His big worry, he said, is that long-time supporters will just forget what's at stake — the renewal of one of the state's most popular programs — and fail to vote.
"I'm always concerned when a popular program becomes something people take for granted, " he said.

This scoop it profile by @Tom D'Amico (@TDOttawa) includes many useful blogs and articles that aim to teach in the 21st century. This includes learning with the use of technology. What he refers to as the 'iGeneration' includes many useful updates that can be used for both the students and teachers in the classroom. A few i came across that sparked my interest were a description on how to set up a blog with wordpress for teachers, this can be very useful to me as a student now and also in the future. I enjoy D'Amico's profile as he scoops quite interesting topics.

DETROIT -- Each Wednesday, more than 250 people attend the Blessing of the Sick service at the Solanus Casey Center on Detroit's east side. They pray for the healing of themselves or people they love.
Recently, Katie Valenti, 28, was among the faithful who gathered at the center. The Plymouth, Mich., native was in town visiting from Mandeville, La.
In January, Valenti was diagnosed with Stage 2 breast cancer. She has had two surgeries and eight rounds of chemotherapy and will undergo radiation therapy in August. Faith always has been important to the Valenti family, but the cancer has given them even more reason to pray.
There was a time when medicine and faith had clear borders. Doctors treated the physical body, and religious leaders fed the spiritual body. But thanks to a growing body of research and the increased presence of health practitioners whose faith is part of their practice, religion and medicine are joining forces in ways far beyond the hospital chaplain.
"There is a fair amount of science to substantiate the power of prayer, belief and spirituality to positively impact the healing process," said Dr. Michael Seidman, medical director of the Center for Complementary and Integrative Medicine at the Henry Ford Health System. "It matters not what you believe. It matters that you believe."
Seidman, who also is a surgeon, said that on occasion, with the family's consent, he has prayed with his patients before surgery.
"I have asked if I may join in," he said. "I'm there to reassure the family and to bond with them. It shows that I, too, have faith and it is important to me as well. It's certainly not going to hurt, and if people believe it'll help, that helps the healing process."
Valenti, who attended the Detroit healing service with her mother, Karen Valenti, agrees.
"It gives you courage to fight," Katie Valenti said. "There were some dark moments when I was first diagnosed and after my surgeries when I didn't know if I'd make it through. My mom would say, 'Send up all your fears and worries and discomforts and aches and say, "Today I can't handle this, but I know you can."' I did, and I felt better, and I got through the day. Now, I pray and thank God that I'm still here."
Not only is faith entering hospitals in varying ways, hospitals have entered houses of worship.
In 2009, the Henry Ford system piloted a project aimed at reducing health disparities within the African-American community. It put kiosks in four churches where parishioners can go for information and guidance on a variety of health concerns, including obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease and HIV-AIDS.
This year, a Wayne State University study found that if traumatic brain injury victims feel close to a higher power, it can help them rehabilitate. The study of 88 patients at the Rehabilitation Institute of Michigan in Detroit was published in the February issue of Rehabilitation Psychology.
"Feeling connected to a higher power positively impacted not only their feelings, but their functional outcomes, what they were able to do. So they didn't just feel better, there was evidence they functioned better in their ability to do daily tasks," said lead investigator Brigid Waldron-Perrine, who's now at the University of Michigan working on a postdoctoral degree in neuropsychology.
The study used various questionnaires to assess patients' spiritual practices and beliefs and their physical and psychological well-being. Researchers also interviewed the patients as well as significant others about how well the patient handled daily tasks, such as managing their own finances and going out in the community alone.
"Having a connection to a higher power was predictive of positive rehabilitation outcomes," Waldron-Perrine said.
A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention grant allowed University of South Carolina researcher Jane Teas to interview 135 people who believed God had a role in healing them. The study was published last year and resulted in a book titled "Faith Heals: Stories of God's Love," (SC McAC Press, $16.23).
"Our stories give testimony to a supreme presence and power of God; but not as passive, hidden in people's souls or sitting aloof on a throne in heaven. God in these stories is active, transforming the ordinary wounds of sickness and adversity to well-being and joy, using visions, dreams and whispers heard in the heart," Teas writes in the book's introduction.
"We're not saying throw out your medicine," Teas said in an interview. "We are saying there is something powerful that goes with believing. I can't say it's not real. I can say there is a force in our world that we don't know enough about to discount. I suppose one day we'll have a nasal spray for the peace that surpasses all understanding."
Research done by REAL scientists has shown that there is absolutely no demonstrable link between prayer and physical health. But the delusion is far too attractive for some to accept the facts. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/03/31/health/31pray.html
Action... has legitimate science on it's side.
Placebo effect. Just as stress in the mind can tear down the body - thinking good thoughts can, to a point, build it up. This is not news. This belongs in some half baked men's health or Oprah Winfrey magazine.
You skeptics have not been in the foxhole yet. When your turn comes you can express your bravado once more.
Been there, done that KWVeteran. Never once prayed while I was in Iraq...

I have been using Sidekick3 for a few years now. just last week the battery gave out all of a sudden. little warning sign over the last month was that it wouldn't stay powered barely all day as it used to be that I didn't have to charge it up everyday.
fast forward, getting the phone today that I ordered online (only way to get it), I plugged the charger in and the light would come on, then fade away. is this normal? should I worry after 8 hours normal charge time that the battery won't power up?
the battery is a Sharp PB-BL11. got it from EMTC Inc for $15. free shipping. too good to be true, maybe. most other sites sell it for almost twice as much.

Q's Winter Wonderland
Blessed Prixin Kot'baval,
Wait – I got that wrong, didn't I? Your mortal holidays are so confusing. Veneration of trees and candles, sulfur baths, something involving peppermint and socks hung on a fireplace … I find it mystifying why you must wrap so much ritual into a simple celebration!
Still, I believe that it is my gift to bring joy and merriment to my favorite pets. (That would be all of you, by the way.) So out of the goodness of my heart, I have used an infinitesimal amount of my omnipotent power to create a winter wonderland!
My Winter Wonderland has snow and ice, a game to play every day and such wonderful packages … do you like Green? Blue? Maybe Red?
Maybe you'll even end up with some Frosted Boots or something to liven up that dreary uniform!
Also, my father tells me that you mortals enjoy eating. The whole idea of energy conversion through oral consumption and digestion sounds a little bothersome to me, but if you like it…
So put on your party shoes and get ready to celebrate! The festivities start Thursday, Dec. 8 and last through Jan. 2.
Hugs and kisses,
Before you head out to Q's Winter Wonderland, make sure to take a look at the FAQ thread about the event here.

Schools are closing for the holiday break, offering a great opportunity to introduce kids to art.
Many of Central Florida's museums and arts centers will be open during the holidays. Some admissions are free, and others are inexpensive — almost certainly less than a visit to the movies or a video arcade. Several art venues are within walking distance of a nice park where the kids can play and the whole family can eat al fresco.
Here are just some of the places to visit. You can find more in the listings in Calendar and at OrlandoSentinel.com. (It's a good idea to call ahead to verify holiday-week hours.)
•Our Morse Museum of American Art in downtown Winter Park (455 N. Park Ave., 407-645-5311) has free admission on Fridays through Dec. 28, including tonight from 4 to 8.
The Morse will have live chamber music (including a flute trio tonight); curator tours of its world-renowned collection of works by Louis Comfort Tiffany and other exhibits; a stained-glass demonstration; and a hands-on, take-it-home art project for the kids.
•The Orlando Museum of Art (407-896-4231) and the Mennello Museum (407-246-4278) are both in Loch Haven Park. On Saturday, OMA will open "Contemporary Glass Sculpture: Celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Studio Glass," which includes works by Harvey K. Littleton, William Morris, Dale Chihuly, Lino Tagliapietra and others.
You could easily spend the whole day at Loch Haven, which is also home to the Orlando Science Center (407-514-2000) and the Orlando Repertory Theatre (407-896-7365). Through Sunday, the theater is showing a Christmas musical for children, "Junior Claus."
•In downtown Orlando, visit the galleries at City Hall, the Grand Bohemian Hotel and the CityArts Factory. They're all on Orange Avenue between South and Pine streets.

text: Analysis Predicts Moderation in Corn Prices An Ethanol Promotion Information Council analysis says corn prices will adjust to increased demand. Published on: Jan 17, 2007 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Story RSS Permalink Print The Ethanol Promotion Information Council says in a new analysis that corn prices will moderate after some adjustments to increased demand due to the booming ethanol industry. In a paper with the to-the-point title "Concerns About High Corn Prices Unfounded," EPIC predicts that rising corn production would help to compensate for higher prices caused by increased corn demand. As the ethanol industry demands more corn, EPIC expects corn supply to come not only from more corn acres, but from other corn markets such as exports and the sweeteners market. In addition, the analysis says livestock operations feeding dried distillers grains left over from ethanol distillation will help to make up for demand for corn as feed. While this year's corn prices are high, the EPIC analysis says that in historical perspective, prices have reached comparable levels in the past, such as a $3.53 per bushel average in 1995-96 and $3.23 in 1983-4. The report is available at www.epicinfo.org/epic_ddgs.pdf.

On Thursday, July 24th, from 5-7 p.m., the Mystic Branch YMCA celebrated their fifth anniversary with music, fun, kettle corn, hot dogs, and a giant blow-up obstacle course. The anniversary marks the Mystic branch's merger with the Westerly-Pawcatuck and Arcadia branches on July 25, 2003, forming the Ocean Community YMCA.
"This celebration is a way for us to say thank you to our members, donors, and board members for their support over the last five years," says Branch Director, Tim Babcock.
Since 2003, the Mystic YMCA accomplished a plethora of achievements. Membership doubled, and they now boast 4,200 members. There is an 80 percent increase in Beach Camp participation, with 135 kids enrolled this summer. The YCares Financial Assistance Scholarship Program grew from raising $20,000 to currently raising over $90,000. They established a new Teen Center, and implemented 40 new programs targeting youth, teens, and active older adults.
"We're happy that the merger is a success story due to partnerships with key volunteers and staff members," says Maureen Fitzgerald, president of the Mystic YMCA. "The mission of the Y is being fulfilled in the Mystic community. We have really done a lot over the past five years."
Sponsors for the event included JDK Management, A&P, S&P Oyster House, Mystic Chips, 106.5 WBMW, BF Hoxie Fire Department, Coca Cola, Rob Valenti, the Duggan family, the Stritar family, and Charley Williams.

The university is saying "thank you" to the community by inviting everyone to enjoy the Ohio Valley Conference game between Tennessee Tech and nationally-ranked Eastern Kentucky on Saturday at 11:30 a.m. Other special activities during the game will include a child identification kit giveaway and a halftime salute to United Way.
"We've made this day of community appreciation an annual event because we can never say 'thank-you' enough to recognize and commemorate our mutually beneficial partnership with the community," said Tennessee Tech President Angelo Volpe.
The general admission tickets may be picked up at the university's athletic ticket office, University Center information desk and alumni relations office. Large blocks of tickets are available to employers who want to give tickets to employees. Tickets will also be available at the gate on Saturday.
"Citizens all across the Upper Cumberland, along with the more than 20 percent of Tennessee Tech graduates living and working in the area, are responsible for the university's continued success," said Lee Wray, director of alumni relations. "The 'Partnership Game' is our way to say 'thanks.'"
As a community service, Tennessee Tech will give free child identification kits to parents attending the game to help organize and store important information about their children. The university's football office and the American Football Coaches Association sponsor the giveaway. Tennessee Tech Fellowship of Christian Athletes members will hand out the kits at the game.
Activities during the game will also benefit United Way. Tennessee Tech business students will be volunteering to hand out United Way brochures and tossing T-shirts into the crowd to create greater awareness of the agency. This effort is also part of the College of Business Administration's participation in a national "Make a Difference Day."For more information about tickets or activities, call 372-3205.

Lauds Farmers' Environmental Stewardship Efforts
SPARKS, Md. (August 30, 2012) – Today, surrounded by fields of corn and soybeans, Lt. Governor Anthony G. Brown joined Maryland Department of Agriculture Secretary Buddy Hance, agricultural leaders, local farmers, and elected officials to announce record cover crop acreage by Maryland farmers.
"We are working with Maryland's farmers to protect family farms and agriculture jobs, and to keep family farming profitable," said Lt. Governor Brown. "Today's announcement is great news for our farmers who continue to take strong conservation actions to diversify their farming operations and use new and innovative ways to protect the Chesapeake Bay. Together, we are creating jobs and supporting rural economies, improving our quality of life, and securing the future of Maryland agriculture and our environment for generations to come."
Lt. Governor Brown announced that Maryland has approved a record 607,000 acres of winter grains to date in the Cover Crop Program, which were requested by a record 1,860 farmers – 152 of which were new to the program this year. This record acreage represents 170 percent of the current two year goals of Watershed Implementation Plan for cover crops. Cover crops are one of the most cost-effective means of helping to restore the Chesapeake Bay.
Cover crops are planted in the fall after the autumn harvest to help farmers control soil erosion and reduce the amount of nutrients washing into the bay over the winter. Once established, cover crops recycle unused plant nutrients remaining in the soil from the previous summer crop, protect fields against wind and water erosion, and help improve the soil for the next year's crop. Maryland's Cover Crop Program provides farmers with grants to plant cover crops on their fields immediately following the summer crop harvest
"Not only is Maryland's cover crop program a very attractive and flexible program, it has the potential to do more for the Bay than ever before. Maryland farmers exceeded the Phase I Watershed Implementation Plan milestone for cover crops last year and are on track to exceed it again this year with a record number of approved acres," said Agriculture Secretary Hance. "We commend and thank all farmers who, together, have enrolled more than half a million acres of small grain crops that protect our soil and water by taking up any remaining nutrients and preventing soil erosion over the winter."
Top counties ranked by the largest percentage of eligible farmland enrolled:
Allegany – 109%
Montgomery – 99%
Calvert – 88%
Somerset – 88%
Talbot – 78%
Kent – 73%
Top counties ranked by most acres enrolled:
Kent – 62,938
Queen Anne's – 62,036
Talbot – 57,864
Frederick – 49,959
Caroline – 46,360
Dorchester – 43,519
Worcester – 40,448
The announcement was made at Cold Bottom Farms, Inc., in Baltimore County, which is currently farmed by third and fourth generation Maryland farmers. Together, cousins Chuck and Jim Ensor, Jim's son Jamie and Chuck's son-in-law Ben Copenhaver manage approximately 4,500 acres, including 2,700 acres of corn and 1,800 acres of soybeans. Cold Bottom Farms was named Cooperator of the Year in 1999 by the Baltimore County Soil Conservation District. The family has consistently been one of the biggest participants in the cover crop program and aims to plant 2,000 acres of cover crops this fall.

We have a dog and with regular dust, this really works. I can't imagine using any other bag and will never go back to the paper bags. I selected the Kenmore vacuum because of it's HEPA features and really love it. I'll never go back to paper bags again.

It seems to me the carpet is cleaner and even a bit fluffier now that I'm using these bags instead of the regular ones. I see less dust around the vacuum cleaner as I'm using it, too.

LIS students, recent grads, and assorted friendlies: let's take a moment away from the hotel ballroom scene at SLA2011 and raise a glass to colleagues from our programs and new friends from other schools.

Austin >Food & Dining > Sago Modern Mexican
4600 Guadalupe Bldg B Ste 5, Austin, TX | Directions 7875130.314127 -97.733886
Neighborhoods: Triangle State
I liked it a lot – It's not your traditional mexican food, and don't expect authenticity, but I like the food. Very good, good quality, service. Great place over all.
Fantastic Tex-Mex in the Triangle! – Located in the Triangle, this restaurant exemplifies the meaning of modern. From the paint colors (pink and orange) and stylish booths and décor to the twists on classic margaritas and a creative menu, Sago offers a consistently interesting and delicious experience. The drinks are not only good but pretty. Their nightly deals make adding a drink to your bill affordable. Every dish is well presented, cooked to perfection and offers a great twist on Mexican-influenced dishes.
Pretty Good Food, crappy drinks – For all the one star reviews out there, you guys are getting a little carried away. This place is definitely not the best in Austin, but definitely worth trying. They have some very unique dishes on the menu that I really wanted to try. I had the Caesar Chavez salad with tinga chicken, and I was very impressed. The Yucca fritters that accompanied the salad in the place of croutons were very very good. I love a good caesar and this place has it. My girlfriend was very happy with her taco salad as well.
The happy hour prices are awesome, dollar beers, cheap appetizers, cheap drinks, unfortunately my margarita was absolutely awful, my girlfriend had a mixed drink that was very weak.
I found the waitstaff to be very friendly, but the place does seam like they are a little disorganized. Bartender was in over his head.
Textbook Perfect Dining Experience – We sat down in the bar area and were immediately greeted with fresh warm chips and a unique salsa that assured us we were still in the great state of Texas without burning our lips off. Our server Travis suggested the steak salad and Mexican martinis which were both excellent. His service was attentive and the prices were very reasonable. We will be back fo sho.
Blackberry Margs! – A quick thought would lead one past the organic blackberry Margaritas --- it does seem a bit much. But try this --- a frozen glaze of blackberry puree lines the glass, while a small amount of puree sits in the bottom for a quick taste. The middle of the drink is filled with a very good, classic lime frozen margarita. It is a beautiful drink to look at, it has a classic taste, with occasional hints of novelty. And for $3 at HH, it can't be beat. The food, especially the gorditas (both vegetarian and pork) and the pork stuff poblano leave no room for complaints.
mmmm – I've been going to Sago for quite sometime now and have developed a serious craving for their Pork Enchiladas... they are delicious. Their specialty margaritas are incredible as well... would recommend the Jalapeno and the mango margs.
The restaurant has been well thought out and carefully planned. love it
Not For Dumpster Divers Like Doc – Think the guy who made the comment right below this one needs to quit spending so much time in dumpsters. It's not only screwed up his taste buds but his head as well. Guess this is what happens when someone who works for Taco Bell, Taco Bueno, ad nauseum, gets mad at the competition. Thing is Sago Modern Mexican is no competition at all.
This is some of the best Mexican food to be found in a town full of great places.
Be warned, however: This is NOT for the dumpster diving crowd like Doc.
Tastes like Taco Bell's dumpster, only not as fresh. – They refused to make a chili relleno without meat, and when I was forced to settle for fish tacos, they arrived dried-out and stale from sitiing under warmng lights, and my guests' enchiladas were also dry and burned on top from a careless microwave operator and the warming lamps. They looked like something that had been abandoned in a food dehydrator during the cold war. The store bought flour tortillas were so stale and dry that they were practically nacho-chips...as authentic as any mexican food to be found in Cincinatti, Ohio. This place wa once good, but now, I doubt that the taco bell chihuahua would even take a dump at this place (although, if you look at the food... maybe). This is a restaurant that has truly lost it's will to live, and should be taken out and shot to put it out of it's, and everybody's misery. truly pathetic. I don't know how the owners can even live with themselves.
Insanely Overrated – We went to Sago the first night it opened and it was pretty horrible but we tried to chalk it up to opening night jitters. When we recently saw the glowing reviews and ratings, we figured we had to try it again. Bad decision. Not only is the service horrendous, the food is not worth even half the price they ask for it. We could not believe there was not more of an improvement and have to assume there is someone on the staff that is in with Citysearch. It's totally perplexing.
The only redeeming feature is the salsa which I have to say was pretty good. But the chips are tasteless, just no personality. The entrees were equally as boring. It's not that it tastes horrible, it's more that it doesn't really have taste. Just blah. The overall experience felt like a complete waste of time.
Overrated – Food is average at best. Waitstaff is friendly. Owners are in way over their heads. Slightest requests are met with rude responses. The place gets busy on a weekend night, and the management comes unglued, owners are running around micromanaging the staff instead of relating to those that pay the bills, their guests. They should enjoy their 15 minutes, they probably won't be around long.

Best Turkish/Mediterranean Restaurant in town!!!
We have been there as a friend advised for real turkish food couple weeks ago. Our favorite "guvec" meals and appetizers are the lebni, humus and of course pita bread was delicious. Honestly, I strongly advice to try it! I think Turquoise Grill has the best Mediterranean restaurant in San Antonio. It is not cheap, of course, but delicious!
Really wanted to love it, but... – Just can't bring myself to only give it 2 stars although "Sorta Good" actually is a better description. I thought everything was underseasoned. I don't have any experience with Turkish food, but when I think of Turkey I think "Spice Market". Everything, including the Pita was a little bland. I had the Chicken Tava, which was OK but tasted a little like it had a Campbells Tomato soup base. Daughter had Doner Kebab (Lamb and beef) which was also OK, but underseasoned (to me). Wife had Kofte Kebab, which was the best of three, but still not fantastic. Kind of like a beef and lamb patty sausage. Anyway, it was pretty good. No liquor but they will let you bring your own wine. Ambiance looks like the best they could manage on a limited budget. Not terrible, but certainly not very nice. (I could have really done without the tacky slide projector throwing images of Turkey (I guess) on the wall).
Still, for all the negatives I said above, It was not a bad experience. We were just expecting more. It is a good value and the people couldn't be nicer. I hope they make it. It is a tough business and they've obviously poured everything they have into it. Really impressive web presence set high expectations.
Great restaurant – Went there on a Friday night, the place was hopping, but service was still good. Best of all though was the food, really unique in San Antonio. Prices weren't bad either.
Best lamb, best baklava, best humus....could go on and on – This restaurant is great. This was my first experience with Turkish food and is is just wonderful. Great lamb and great homemade baklava. Owner is very helpful and friendly. Try the red lentil soup--what? you say--lentil soup???? it is so good you'll wonder why it never crossed your mind to eat red lentil soup before! Though they have vegetarian dishes this is not a vegetarian restaurant. Plenty of succulent grilled meat on the menu.

Explore Undiscovered Food, Fashion & Fun.
DIY footwear conjures images of postpedicure paper flip-flops and plastic bags taped over shoes in the rain.
Here to elevate the idea is I Spy DIY's Jenni Radosevich. For today's Easy Does It video, we gave her a pair of $17 H&M sandals and told her to make them special for less than $20.
The result: seriously cute, tribal-inspired kicks that took about 45 minutes, start to finish, to doll up. All you need is colorful string, glue, scissors, and a can-do attitude. Just kidding — you don't even need a can-do attitude (it's that easy).
Her trick can also be applied — literally — to belts, bracelets, hair bands, you name it.
If you want more (you will), check out her new book, I Spy DIY Style, for enough ideas to keep you busy all summer.
No fake flower hair clips as shoe adornments in sight.
I Spy DIY Style is available online at amazon.com, $15. To see Radosevich's inspiration, go to ispydiy.com. Want to learn to do more cool stuff? Watch our videos on getting Madonna-worthy hair, making a Kentucky Derby hat, or constructing a candelabra from stuff at the hardware store.

GARDEN CITY -- An excited sell out crowd at Memorial Stadium saw the Boise Hawks defeat the Tri-City Dust Devils 3-2 in their home opener, Wednesday night.
The Hawks drew first blood in the second inning. Right fielder Anthony Golden started the rally by leading off with a single and Ben Klafczynski followed with a triple down the right field line to give Boise a 1-0 lead.
The game would remain that way thanks to a solid pitching performance from Benjamin Wells. In his second start of the season the righty went 4.1 innings, struck out three, and allowed only one run.
With two men on and the score tied at one in the bottom of the fifth, Hawks clean-up man Paul Hoilman came up big with two outs sending a double to the wall in right scoring Brad Zepanas and Willson Contreras to make it a 3-1 score.
That would prove to be all the Hawks would need as they held on for a 3-2 victory.
Boise is now an even 3-3 on the season and will continue its series against Tri-City on Thursday night.
