Interlibrary Loan
- Individuals may have no more than 20 interlibrary loan requests on file at any given time; 10 for materials outside the Shawnee Library System and 10 through Shawnee Library System's computerized database (which automatically limits the number of requests).
- Copyright regulations are strictly enforced.
- Interlibrary loan materials are subject to the loan periods, renewals, fines, fees and any other applicable policies of the lending library (the library which owns the material). Libraries in Illinois have adopted an Interlibrary Loan Code which sets these guidelines. It states: "The borrowing library shall honor the lending library's condition of loan including observation of dates and duration of loans, recall notices, fees (if applicable), and special handling provisions. The borrowing library shall convey these conditions to the patron."
- Periodicals (magazines and newspapers) are not loaned or borrowed on interlibrary loan. However, photocopies or facsimiles of periodical articles can be requested and are subject to copyright laws.
- Carbondale Public Library does not provide the following materials on interlibrary loan:
- Reference material
- Art prints
- Periodicals (see #4 above for further explanation)
- New acquisitions for a period of three to six months (determined by reserves). However, CPL does lend audio/visual materials within and outside the Shawnee Library System.
- Individuals who request intra-system (within Shawnee Library System) interlibrary loan service through the library must have a valid Carbondale Public Library card.
- Only those individuals with a valid Carbondale Public Library card may request interlibrary loan of materials owned by libraries outside the Shawnee Library System. All other public library card holders must initiate interlibrary loan requests for materials outside Shawnee Library System at their home library. (See #8 below for an exception when Carbondale Public Library acts only as a facilitator.)
- There are occasions when Carbondale Public Library may act as a facilitator between a library and a client/organization. In such cases the client/organization does not need to have a public library card. However, the lending library must acknowledge that Carbondale Public Library assumes no responsibility for items handled this way. In this situation CPL generally acts as the delivery agent and there is no actual circulation transaction within the automated system.

Kindergarten can be an exciting time for you and your child because it sets the stage for his entire school career. You will look on in wonder as he grows into a more capable, confident, and enthusiastic learner.
But sending your child off to kindergarten can be rough. As the day approaches, you will probably experience a mix of feelings ranging from relief to fear. And your anxiety will be rooted in some specific questions that nag you.
Here are some answers to the most commonly asked questions.
Five-year-olds come in all shapes and sizes. Some students are "off the chart" for size and physical dexterity. Others face severe challenges. There are, however, certain traits you may see in a typical five-year-old:
Most children love to try different sports and activities at this age. The secret is to help your child view them as fun. Any five-year-old who jumps, plays outdoors, and does other things that help develop large muscles is getting the exercise he needs.
All learning starts with play. You can best prepare your child for kindergarten by providing play experiences that challenge him and that he enjoys. Also, set a good example — remember to play yourself!
Entry into kindergarten usually requires a checkup. Be sure to tell your child's doctor:
At a well-child checkup, the doctor most likely will:
A yearly dental checkup is also in order, both to teach good home care and to detect early dental problems. You may want to find a children's dentist, who has had extra training in child behavior and dental health.
Remember: If your child has ever had a medical problem, or has one now, it is important that you contact the school. A child who is on medication may exhibit unusual behavior in the classroom that the teacher needs to understand.
After a busy day in kindergarten, your five-year-old may find it easier to fall asleep at night than he has in the past. However, getting up in the morning may be more difficult. Night waking is rare among five-year-olds, perhaps because children this age do not typically take naps. If you establish a routine and stick to it — bath followed by a story, for example — bedtime usually goes well. In fact, it may be his favorite time of day.
Begin to adjust your child's bedtime and nap schedule several weeks before school starts. That way, he will not have too many changes in routine to contend with at the same time.
Your child will likely have an easier transition to kindergarten if he is comfortable away from you for several hours at a time. Some children can handle the separation easily, while others may be overly clingy or tearful as the first day of school approaches. Here are several ways you can help your child deal with his anxieties:
Learning self-discipline requires a childhood filled with patience, love and limits provided by adults consistently and repeatedly. Your child is more likely to be successful in kindergarten if he knows how to follow certain rules, obeys authority figures, treats objects and people with care, and understands that it is never okay to hurt anyone on the inside or the outside.
His self-management skills will continue to grow throughout the year; for example, he will improve his ability to express his emotions in an appropriate way, listen to a story without interrupting, and stay calm even when he is frustrated or disappointed.
Good behavior provides more opportunities for learning. You can help your child understand that he must obey certain rules and respect authority figures by modeling the behavior you wish to see from him. Do not allow him to boss you or talk disrespectfully to you. This is important if he is to understand, accept, and respect authority figures at school.
Becoming Independent and Self-Confident
Children generally learn best when they are allowed to do things themselves, so the gift of confidence is one of the most valuable things we can give them. Notice the efforts your child is making. Remarks such as "I like the way you picked up your toys without being told" or "You did a good job dressing yourself" go a long way toward helping him feel capable.
Dressing himself — buttoning his coat, zipping his pants, etc. — is one area where your child should feel extra confident. He may also be learning to tie his shoes, but until he masters this skill, look for shoes with hook-and-loop closures.
Many children this age do need guidance in choosing clothing that is appropriate for certain situations. You may want to divide his closet into different sections for school clothes, play clothes, and special occasion clothes. Or, color code his drawers for easy recognition and let him pick anything he wants from the designated drawer.
Practicing Good Manners
A well-mannered child tends to get the most from school. He is also likely to have more friends. Here's how you can promote good manners:
Accepting Others Regardless of Their Differences
Help your child understand that people in the world represent a variety of shapes, sizes, abilities, races, and beliefs. Acceptance means understanding the variety — how we are alike and how we are different—and treating all people in a kind and fair manner. It is a learned behavior that becomes a common practice when he observes the important people in his life treating others with respect.
Other Signs of Emotional Readiness
Children learn social skills best by modeling, repetition, and practice. "Catch" your child being good by complimenting him when he responds appropriately in a given situation. And remember that his teacher will help him develop many traits, such as:
Most kindergarten teachers plan special activities involving parents and children for the first week of school. Try to attend these events. They offer the perfect opportunity for your child to feel comfortable in his new setting, meet his classmates, and get to know his teacher.
Some children are excited and make the transition to kindergarten with amazing ease. Others are uneasy: "Will I make friends? Will I get lost?" If your child expresses fears, listen to him, and then state back to him what you believe he is feeling. This will let him know that you understand, and that he can trust you with his feelings. Try to boost his confidence by remaining positive yourself. Continue to talk about his apprehensions as they arise.
Something else you can do to alleviate his fears is to read books about kindergarten together. Here are some suggestions (not available from Focus on the Family):
These books are geared toward parents (also not available from Focus on the Family):
Assessing your child's readiness for kindergarten can be tricky. Let's face it: It is difficult to be objective about your own child. You may want to ask the opinion of other adults who have spent time with him. Ultimately, however, the decision rests with you.
One of the best ways to decide whether your child is ready is to think about his strengths and weaknesses. The following list contains behaviors that are potential barriers to learning. If you "see" your child on this list, however, don't despair! Each child is an individual, so the profile of one child will be very different from another — even within the same family. Your child's teacher has the background to diagnose such behaviors and the training to help each child learn and grow.
Whether to send your child to kindergarten now or wait until next year is not an easy decision, especially if he exhibits many of the behaviors listed above. To help you make the best possible decision, talk to his preschool teacher, caregiver or pediatrician. Consult beforehand with his new teacher and discuss his social and emotional maturity, unique personality, needs, strengths, and areas of concern as well as the school's programs, expectations, and services. Consider how you, your child, and the school will all work together.
Even though it is not your child's decision to make, get a sense of how he feels about starting school. A child who throws a tantrum at the thought of school may well need an additional year rich in interaction with others before starting kindergarten.
Think of the big picture: If you have nagging doubts about your child's ability to handle kindergarten, it may well be best to give him the gift of an additional year. During that time, make sure he has lots of play dates, story hours at the public library, an additional year in (or first exposure to) preschool, and plenty of opportunities to interact with a variety of children in a variety of situations.
There are so many enjoyable ways you can support your kindergartner as he acquires these new skills! You are, after all, his most important teacher.
Here are some suggestions:
First and foremost, however, read to and with your child and have him read to you. Reading is the essential foundation upon which all other skills are built.
By the time children complete kindergarten, they should know the parts of a book and their functions. They should begin to distinguish various forms and purposes of print, from personal letters and signs to storybooks.
Children come to kindergarten with a variety of experiences, and the teacher accepts each child at his unique stage of development and helps him develop the essential building blocks of literacy so he will be successful in first grade.
There are so many enjoyable activities you can do together to help "grow" his literacy skills:
Celebrate his progress!
Exposure to many different kinds of books will increase your child's language skills. For example:
The best time for reading to and with your child, or for having him read to you, is when he is rested and content. A quiet environment will keep distractions to a minimum. Have him sit close to you so he can see the book. If he is wiggly, try reading to him while he is in the bathtub. Remember that he may want to hear a favorite book over and over again. He will begin to memorize the story, and that's a stepping stone in the process of learning to read.
Remember, too, that he may well want to "read" to you, even before he can technically do so. Encourage this behavior, because telling the story while pointing to the pictures is an important pre-reading skill.
Avid readers acquire their love of reading at home, from their parents. No teacher can pass along a passion for books the way a loving parent can. Children remember cozy bedtime stories, sharing books with friends and siblings, and the freedom and encouragement to read lots of different kinds of books.
It certainly is! Even before they enter kindergarten, most children take the first steps toward experimenting with print. Here's how you can support your child's earliest attempts at writing:
When your child seems ready for more complex tasks, encourage him to print his name beginning with a capital letter and using lowercase letters for the rest. Help him to learn his address and phone number, his birthday, the days of the week, and months of the year. These skills represent major steps in learning language. Remember that praise for even small improvements in any of these areas reinforces his willingness to try harder.
Checklist of Kindergarten Milestones
In kindergarten, your child will learn many of the basic skills needed to read, write, and do math. He'll also learn to get along with others and to follow rules.
The German word kindergarten means "a child's garden,""and this first year of formal school will be filled with opportunities to plant seeds of learning for your child.
What kindergarten teachers hope to see on the first day of school are children who are healthy, mature, capable, and eager to learn. In reality, however, they welcome all children into their classrooms regardless of what they can or cannot do. Their mission is to help all students grow in physical, social, behavioral, and language skills so they are prepared for the challenges of first grade.
There's no perfect formula that determines when children are truly ready for kindergarten. But you can use this checklist to see how well your child progresses in acquiring these skills throughout the year.
Don't worry if your child seems to have only a handful of these skills the first time you read the lists. Check the skills he has mastered, then review the lists every month to see what additional skills he can accomplish easily. Young children learn so fast! He may struggle with a skill this month but have it mastered the next. You will be amazed to see how many items you can check by the end of the year!
Physical Development and Motor Skills
By the end of the kindergarten year, does your child:
Social and Behavioral Skills
Language Skills

I love color, color theory, and the color spectrum. When I'm not designing, you'll probably find me honing my composition skills with photography. Being both a designer and photographer help to keep me honest and my work fresh. Plus it gives me the chance to problem solve from different perspectives. I can be quite indecisive, but I always rely on sustainability, minimalism, and color to help guide my choices.

Maybe a scilly question, but I'm allergic to cheese (not to all dairy but just to cheese, creame cheese). I'm wondering what I can use instead if I'd like to make 'pesto'.
Hi Eleonoor
No probs, you can leave the cheese out, blitz up pine nuts, basil and olive oil and season with salt, pepper and lemon juice!

Re: Ask me a cooking question
I've just made 2 litres of pesto to give as gifts and to stock up myself. It keeps fine in the fridge or freezer but looses some of its green-ness on storing. I don't add Parmesan when making (even if for immediate use). Those who want it can add it at the table, family style.
In addition to the "usual suspects" , I also use white walnuts in my recipe.

Re: Ask me a cooking question
I brew homemade wine (normally from Kits),but i have just made and bottled some Sloe wine,(which will take a few months to mature).
My question is what food would accompany the Sloe wine ?
As this is the first time i have made sloe wine from the fruit and not from a kit , what food would accompany the Sloe wine ?
Any suggestions would be most welcome and appreciated.
Thank you

Hi Jamie!
I have a small butcher's shop in northern Italy with my husband, and get wonderful pork meat from Mantova, but something you don't find in Italy is gammon. I would really like to know how I could make it, starting from the hind leg of the pork. I understand the raw meat has to be treated, but how? Thanks a lot!

Re: Ask me a cooking question
Hi Jamie, please give me some pointers on roast beef (fresh beef, not the kind which was hanged for 21 days, or anything like that). I tried your recipe (roast beef with baby Yorkies meal, from 30 minutes meals) and i did everything by the book (didn't poke the meat, didn't press it, roasted it in the beginning to close the juices in) but still the meat was a bit .. chewy. Should I let it marinate in wine, soy sauce, lime juice, or anything like that before cooking it? Any answers is appreciated, thank you

Amsterdam is so much more than tulips, bicycles and the Red Light District, though it does have those things in abundance. This city built on canals has diverse neighbourhoods, sated in culture and history.
Whether you're in search of the bohemian, free-thinking Amsterdam or a perfect destination for book-lovers, you'll find a district here to suit you. The compact centre is easy to navigate, whether by bike, on foot or on the water – and each area has a good range of budget accommodation to choose from.
The main tourist destination, the central area of Amsterdam attracts tourists to its main squares – Dam and Nieuwmarkt. Dam has the best of the historic buildings, whilst Nieuwmarkt offers Holland's take on Chinatown. The Old Centre is also where the Red Light District can be found, but the bars, cafes and restaurants of the area nowadays attract a wider range of visitors than the traditional stag party gangs. The so-called 'New Side' of Amsterdam's centre is relative to the ancient history of this place – it is still full of buildings dating back to the medieval times. However, it provides a quieter and more intellectual pace of life compared to the Old Side and is a book-lover's paradise. It's home to the Amsterdam Museum and Spui Square, which boasts three large bookstores. Plenty of budget accommodation can be found here.
Once a traditional, working-class neighbourhood, Jordaan has been completely regenerated and is now a very popular district with young, trendy things. It still retains a bohemian spirit, attracting artists of all types and keeping up a long tradition of folk music. It is the perfect place to explore art galleries, boutique restaurants and quirky markets - and it is just a five-minute walk to the main sights of the Old Centre. Hostel and budget accommodation can be found here, as well as mid-range hotels.
This upmarket area surrounding the Old Centre boasts some impressive architecture and is also home to the Anne Frank Museum, so it's the perfect neighbourhood for those seeking to soak up the history of Amsterdam. The Negen Straatjes – nine streets sandwiched between two canals – provide an alternative shopping destination with plenty of independent fashion boutiques to choose from. By night, this is a main clubbing area, and with plenty of well-priced hotels, you won't have far to stumble back to in the wee hours of the morning.
Why not make the most of Amsterdam's canals and choose a houseboat stay? Providing easy access to just about any district you choose, houseboats offer competitive prices compared with mid-range and budget hotels – as well as a unique experience. Some houseboats are on a B&B basis, suitable for solo travellers or couples, whilst others are available as self-catering 'apartment' boats, good for larger groups.
x The average starting price for a place to stay in Amsterdam is £88 per night.
mandyrut Best place to stay in Amsterdam...The owners are amazing and they will do anything to help. The room is so clean. Breakfast is provided daily and is more then you can eat. Plus they stock the fridge with more food and drink then you need. I told all my friends it was like staying with family that mind there own business. I will be back as it was the best hotel I have stayed in while visiting Europe.
colettecra We had a really lovely stay in Amsterdam made even better by Easy Nuh Man being a real home from home. The whole place was really clean and fresh. The room itself was very spacious with high ceilings and the bed soooo comfortable I struggled to get out of it! Big airy kitchen with everything you might need if you want to cook or just prepare some breakfast. Nice big windows everywhere too. Great shower and use of washing machine. Location is perfect - lots very nearby but not noisy at all. Really good street for shopping and 2 mins from the museums and Vondelpark. Nice restaurants nearby if you don't want to go into the centre but trams on the doorstep if you do which are very quick and easy to use. Really nice touches like fresh flowers in the room and weather forecast for our stay! Nick was a great host and made us feel very welcome. Will definitely stay here again!
carolinela our stay on antonia houseboat was amazing from start to end! we were looked after really well- the woman who owned the boat even had homemade mushroom soup and fresh bread waiting for us when we arrived! the fridge was stocked up with loads of food everyday which was great. the boat was very cozy, comfortable and relaxing! i would highly recommend this place to anyone and look forward to staying there again. they really bent over backwards to make sure we had the best stay.
tomhubbard3 An extremely nice BB with nice friendly staff in a perfect location to see Amsterdam. The staff made us feel at home and welcome and were helpful if we needed directions or advice etc. Great bedroom with good facilitys. Cheers Atila
Peter52p this hostel is about 15 km from centre of Amsterdam but this was not a problem as they have an hourly shuttle which takes you to local station and then it is about 15 min on metro to central station and about 30 min to airport. staff are very friendly and have good knowledge of many languages and on how to find a large number of interesting places to visit, site and facilities are very clean and well laid out and very good value for the money, they have on-site computers and wire less connection if you have your own laptop. also they have a very well equipped kitchen with free coffee and tea if you wish overall I would strongly recommend and would use again. so enjoy with regards Peter Hallett
plt1963 Great location and fantastic value for money. Staff extremely accommodating. Breakfast was exceptional (not cooked). Facilities basic and rooms tiny. If over 6ft tall it would be problematical but in truth it is a ship so hardly surprising. All in all it couldn't be better for the money.
It is snow The best thing about this property is the location!!!!! The owner is very friendly and nice. The apartment is smth. like 10 square meters, so in case you are a bit bigger dont go there, you can hardly sit on the tolilet. But this is all manageble and u get used to it. The appartment should be dusted as whatever we touched was coverd with dust like it was there from the last winter. Also, you can hear people burping on the street as teh windows are old and not double galzing. :) All in all stay there to save the money, and you will be located in the walking distance from everything in amsterdam.
nidvia The location is far from the center of Amsterdam but a few minutes by tram. With facilities around, including supermarkets. The proper cleaning. You can enjoy privacy. The bathroom a bit small. The best for us was the view from the room at the Rembrandt Park.
anovelli A very nice B&B located close to the Jordaan area. Room is clean and comfortable and most of all, the area is peacefull without the typical noise coming from the streets of the center of the city. 15 minutes walk from Amsterrdam Central Station.
Tim.Moran This is dead set the best hostel i have ever stayed in. I have been traveling for the past two years and this hostel is my favorite. The staff are FANTASTIC and hospitable with great knowledge of the area. Beds are extremely comfortable and rooms are warm as :) would recommend anyone to stay here 10/10 place :) thanks cocomama for the wonderful experience
stephanie- The cabins were a little bit hot during night time given the hot weather...but otherwise it was nice, clean and had a very friendly staff with a great breakfast buffet...I would go back again...
greatoutdo The Amsterdam Hotelboat is a beautiful, exceptionally clean and warm place to stay. The staff are delightful in every way. I would recommend the place to anyone looking for great accommodation and at a great price.

hey guys i just bought a new bow and wondering what your guys opinion is about it
62"Sage TD Recurve 45lb Color olive green and neutral bought it off of ebay for just under 150 i was wondering is with this bow it say's this:
This is a New samick Sage Takedown it is a 62 inch recurve. The bow is 45 pounds at 28 inches. The riser of this bow is made of olive dymondwood and hard Maple laminated riser. Limbs are hard Maple with black fiberglass single tapered knob and metal limb pocket design. Riser is cut past center with a Crown to the arrow shelf. It features brass plunger stabilizer and Sight and quiver bushings. It has fast flight Phenolic reinforced limb tips. This bow has a recommended brace height of 7 1/2 8 1/4 inches. This is a great entry level to Intermediate level bow. Having the options to put a stabilizer or plunger button and mount a quiver or Sight on this bow is a great feature. I tested this bow and founded it to perform extremely well for a bow in its price range. The draw is smooth the arrow is cast with authority. It was an easy bow to pattern and I found it to be very user-friendly. Hard bow to beat for the price.
i know it say's i can use F/F string on this but i've heard of some limbs snaping cause of the pressure from that kind of string I was wondering if I can just use my dacon string B50 i belive it is and just make one for that bow if that would be the safest bet??
oh and i flemish mine own camo brown and dark green color

French bread, bacon, onion, celery, sage and parsley are combined then baked to make a place at your Thanksgiving table.
My mom always makes Thanksgiving dinner, she loves cooking and entertaining and wouldn't have it any other way. I don't mind at all, she makes the best stuffing and it's nice to kick back and enjoy a glass of wine while checking out the black friday sales in the circulars.
This is my mother's lightened up version for all of you to enjoy. For more people double this recipe, you can use this to stuff a turkey, chicken, veal or bake this in a casserole dish and serve it on the side.
It's best to let the bread sit out overnight to get hard, but if your pressed for time you can put it in the oven at 250° for about 30 minutes, stirring half way until the bread is completely firm.
How do you spend your Thanksgiving and who's doing the cooking?

- 1 (16 oz) loaf french bread, cut into small cubes
- 2 slices bacon, minced
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 large onion, minced
- 3 medium stalks celery, minced
- 8 fresh sage leaves, minced
- 2/3 cup chopped parsley
- salt and fresh pepper
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 2 cups fat free chicken broth
- 1/2 cup water
- cooking spray
Preheat oven to 350°.
In a large saute pan over medium heat cook bacon for about 2 minutes. Add butter; when melted add onions, celery, parsley, sage, salt and pepper and saute on medium low until soft, about 5-10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool a few minutes.
In a medium bowl, combine chicken broth and egg.
In a large bowl add bread and combine with sauteed vegetables. Add chicken broth and egg mixture and combine well. If stuffing is too dry, add a little water until you have the right consistency.
Spray a casserole with baking spray, add stuffing and bake uncovered 35-40 minutes, or until golden.

All those stats mean that if you don't own at least one TV for every room in your house, chances are your neighbor to the left or right of you does. It also means that almost everyone you meet today will watch a TV tonight, and 57% of them will use either their DVR or their Internet to do so.
Cable High-Speed Internet in Mount Eden
Cable providers have so much more to offer than TV. That is why so many Mount Eden residents bundle cable services. Cable Internet is faster than most DSL services, providing downstream speeds 25%-100% faster than the national average. People who choose cable bundles also save money, roughly $400 every year they bundle TV and Internet. Both are very good explanations why cable Internet subscribers represent 32% of households, and how broadband penetration in Kentucky grew to 58% by 2010.

I bought a tangerine colored child's pack when my daughter was in pre-school. She used it daily to carry school stuff. She used it occasionally to carry overnight stuff for sleep-overs and camp-outs. Other than a few stains it is like new. My daughter is now 12 she still uses it daily, but has decided she wants a larger pack. When I asked her if she wanted to get rid of the old one she scowled at me and said I couldn't have it.

I own three Duluth products. I love the quality of Duluth's products, their customer care, and...the fact that they have NOT outsourced their manufacturing is very, very important to me.
All that said, however, this is one product that I can not recommend. When your child carries this bag by holding one of the shoulder straps (very common if you watch kids coming out of school), you'll find that the bag is inverted about 90 degrees (not upside down, but close). Duluth really should have realized this and designed it with a small carrying handle at the top.

We bought this for our toddler son and it survived getting down poured on while camping. It's also great with the adjustable straps, so you can stuff enough to swim at the lake for the day or for the weekend.

Totaling about 20,000 pieces –— some as old as 3,000 years, and others as recent as the early 20th century — Ow's collection took up every inch of spare space in his house, said his grandson Benjamin Ow.
"He had a voracious appetite for Chinese antiques," Benjamin Ow said. "He loved the chase of finding new antiques."
The items in George Ow's collection include figures, pots and vessels made of bronze and porcelain.
Nearly 500 pieces will be available for the public to view and bid upon this weekend as the Slawinski Auction Co. features the collection at its estates auction.
"There's some great, quality pieces here," said Rob Slawinski, the company's co-owner. "What a great opportunity to come see these for yourself."
Auctions will begin at 11 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 11, and Monday, Nov. 12, Slawinski said.
According to George Ow Jr., his father's love of Chinese antiques and artifacts began in earnest in the early 1970s, when he took the family to see an exhibit of Chinese art shortly after the United States and communist China established diplomatic relations.
"I think the history and the beauty captivated him," George Ow Jr. said. "They gave him great pride."
George Ow Sr. was born in the early 1920s in a poor, rice-growing area outside of Toisan, China. He lived there until he was about 4 years old and was adopted by a Chinese family living in Santa Cruz.
He lived there until1930, when his family moved back to China when the effects of the Great Depression and restrictive laws against Chinese people made making a living too difficult.
"Dollars would go further in China," George Ow Jr. said.
When the Japanese invaded China in 1937, the teenaged George Ow Sr. moved back to Santa Cruz to avoid near certain death in China's then-poorly organized armed forces.
He didn't return to China for 45 years after that, George Ow Jr. said.
His father graduated from Santa Cruz High School as a member of the Class of 1940 before serving in the Pacific Theater in World War II as a member of the U.S. Army.
When he returned from the war, George Ow Sr. began work in the grocery store business, which eventually allowed him to build his fortune in real estate in Santa Cruz, Capitola and Scotts Valley, including the Kings Village Shopping Center.
As his children grew older and took on more responsibility in the family's real estate business, George Ow Jr. said, his father was able to devote more time to building his collection.
"We love real estate," George Ow Jr. said. "That's how he was able to indulge his hobby."
Benjamin Ow described his grandfather's house, which stood where the Scotts Valley Walgreens is now, as resembling "an overstuffed museum."
"Every wall on his house was full of antiques," he said. "It's just too much to even fully appreciate."
When plans to replace the Ow house with Walgreens began in earnest in 1998, Benjamin Ow recalled spending an entire summer, with several helpers, to wrap and box all the items in the collection for the move.
The boxes were never unpacked in the family's new house, Benjamin Ow said, as his grandfather's health declined.
Aside from a few items, he said, "90 percent of the items remained boxed up."
Finally, the Ow family decided to put the collection up for auction in hopes that others would appreciate the pieces as much as George Ow, Sr. had.
The family also fears the threat of an earthquake to the collection.
"The (collection) could all be destroyed in an instant," Benjamin Ow said. "It's time to let other people enjoy them — they weren't being enjoyed or utilized properly."
For Slawinski, the Ows' decision to put the artifacts up for auction could not have come at a better time. Social and economic changes in China have sent demand skyrocketing for historical items, he said, by allowing individuals to purchase relics internationally.
He explained that in the course of wars, revolutions and other upheaval during the past century, many Chinese historical and cultural artifacts were either ruined or taken from the country.
"A lot of those things were destroyed," Slawinski said. "(The Chinese people) want their culture back — they want their history back."
He said identifying the types of items in the inventory was remarkably easy as a result of the accuracy of George Ow Sr.'s efforts to catalog his collection.
"He was a self-taught expert," George Ow Jr. said. "He became an authority of Chinese art, Chinese history and Chinese artifacts."

Although Ben Hansbrough's college career got a slower start than older brother Tyler's, the younger bro had a standout senior season and was named Big East Player of the Year. His shooting ability will certainly attract NBA attention.
Measurables: 6-foot-3, 203 pounds, senior G from Notre Dame
Key stats: 18.4 points,4.3 assists per game while shooting 48 percent from the field and 43 percent from three
Projected: Second round
How would he help the Pistons?
Hansbrough's 3-point shooting is his most NBA-ready skill, shooting 44 percent this season from three and shooting above 40 percent from long range and three of his four college seasons. The fact that as a senior at Notre Dame he showed the ability to not only shoot, but create shots for others, has made him more of an NBA prospect than he was considered to be a year ago. The Pistons have only two players — Austin Daye and Ben Gordon — who can be called natural 3-point shooters, so adding a player with Hansbrough's stroke in the second round would certainly give them more flexibility to put shooters on the floor to compliment the team's slashers.
The fact that he excelled as Notre Dame's point guard this season, particularly in the pick and roll, should make him even more appealing to the Pistons considering the team has yet to find the long-term answer at that position. Hansbrough may not be a NBA starter, but his shooting, toughness and his competitiveness are three key areas where he could help improve the Pistons.
How wouldn't he help the Pistons?
Adding any guard who isn't going to be an immediate starter is not the best proposition for the Pistons. Hansbrough, even if he will be a solid NBA player at some point, wouldn't be likely to crack the rotation barring a trade or two by the Pistons to clear out some guards. And although he proved to be a solid point guard at the college level this season, it remains to be seen if he has the quickness, ball-handling or finishing ability to excel at that position as anything more than a role player in the NBA.
What are others saying?
SHe generates over a third of his offense in pick-and-roll and isolation situations, where he is extremely efficient. He has a below average first step for an NBA point guard, but he has good size and strength and is a strong ball handler capable of changing speeds effectively. He shows choppy footwork and has the ability to use quick spin moves to keep defenders off balance and draw fouls.
Hansbrough may not be the sexiest prospect in the draft, but he's one of the most productive. Hansbrough has been one of the Top 10 players in the country this year, and does just about everything for his team. He'll never fit the physical profile that NBA scouts are looking for, but his toughness and shooting ability are a big plus. Think of him as a smaller version of his brother, Tyler.
The Hansbroughs are close — Tyler recently said his younger brother is "still my favorite teammate ever" — and being separated by 130 miles has made it easy for them to keep tabs on each other. They're also extremely competitive.
