Walkout!

Several hundred SF State students walked out of classes Thursday morning to protest a fee increase for Fall 2007. This stemmed from the California Board of Trustees voting in March to increase CSU fees by 10 percent for the next school year.

These raised fees have created much discussion, anger and emotion among students throughout California. The walkout is one attempt to protest the increase and here is part of their journey.

Turning the Community Pages

San Francisco’s Independent Bookstores are often hidden in the city’s massive span of diversity and culture. They have been known to provide an outlet for expression to the community’s artists. Yet many are fighting hard to keep their doors — and books — from closing.

Take a deeper look at independent bookstores in San Francisco through this interactive package.

 

Guiding The Way

In the Fall of 2005, SF State united with Guide Dogs for the Blind in San Rafael to create the first Guide Dog Mobility Program in the world to reach University level.

Restaurant Review for Lolo

The Scene
The lackluster exterior and nonexistent signage keep this barely-there tapas joint a well-kept secret among a handful of in-the-know locals. The casual bar area, with a small but delightfully palatable selection of wines, is an eco-friendly display of recycled materials that varies from peacock-stenciled mirrors and dark cherry-wood tables to newsprint wallpaper and eclectic fringed lampshades. A partial exhibition kitchen can be viewed from the adjacent dining room, where favorable service is supplied to spectators accommodated on cushiony booths covered in rainbow-colored fabric.

The Food
The distinguishable spread of miniature-sized portions includes a smorgasbord of epicurean delights. Small plates vary between the peculiar corn-fungus dumplings to the easy-to-swallow panko-encrusted, flash-fried shrimp served on a jicama tortilla and topped with a tropical relish and chipotle aioli. Tender marinated red and yellow beets and grilled radicchio are buttered with a velvety feta mousse. The slightly larger entrees consist of a charcoal-grilled mahi mahi cooked to perfection and a Cedar River, grass-fed flank steak coupled with a peach and strawberry mole. The ultimate sweet-tooth subduer is the bola verde, a harmonious blend of mascarpone, lavender and mint, layered with quince and sprinkled with lemon peel.

Hits: The hospitable and informative waitstaff are eager to go the extra mile for a pleasurable visit.
Misses: For hungry gourmands, the serving sizes don’t make for budget dining. It’s necessary to purchase entrees as well as appetizers to satisfy an empty belly.

Insider Tips

Know Before You GoLolo does not accept reservations, but the crowd is sparse enough to yield a tolerable wait.

What to DrinkA glass of Ferraton Pere et Fils Valreas is luxurious on the palate when paired with the flank steak.

The ExtrasThe night is topped off with a surprising twist when the bill is presented in a hardcover book.
