Horseshoe Bar building re-emerges as 'gateway to downtown'
Patricia Warner is hoping the old horseshoe still has some luck left in it.
Warner intends to renovate the old Horseshoe Bar building in downtown Grand Rapids, a three-story structure that was built in 1891 — and one that would likely have some very interesting tales to tell if it could speak.
Warner plans to renovate the 9,000-square-foot building, at 333 Grandville Ave. SW, into office space for the top two floors and find a retail shop or a restaurant to take the ground floor.
She also intends to restore the building's brick façade and its domed turret and do so by following federal historic standards.
The Grand Rapids Downtown Development Authority gave her a building-reuse grant worth $30,472 to assist with that work.
"This is a fascinating building," said Brian Harris, chairman of the DDA. "And, to me, it's a gateway to downtown."
The Grand Rapids Ballet sold the building to LVD Stolpe, which is Warner's firm, last month for an undisclosed price.
The ballet company intended to house its students on the top two floors and lease the ground floor to a coffee shop. But that plan never developed.
View Larger Map
Rich in history
The building opened as a boarding house and grocery story that primarily served railroad passengers who traveled to and from the city.
About 50 years later, the building was sold and became the Lamar Hotel after World War II, and legend has it, one of the structure's levels served as a brothel.
"We need not know what went on in the second floor," said a smiling Harris.
Horseshoe Bar era
Then Frank Lamar opened the once popular Horseshoe Bar in the building, where many of the nation's top jazz and blues artists played.
"The best that I can tell is the Horseshoe Bar closed in the late 1970s. I don't think there has been an occupant of the building since then," said Bob Kirchgessner, Jr. in 2002.
Previous plans
Back then Kirchgessner owned The West Michigan Group, a residential and investment real estate brokerage firm, and had converted the building's second and third floors into loft office space and planned to sign up a retailer, an art gallery, a coffee shop or a restaurant for the ground floor.
Kirchgessner bought the building in 1998. The group that sold him the structure planned to turn it into a multi-level jazz and blues club with a restaurant about the time Van Andel Arena opened in 1996, but that plan never developed.
When Kirchgessner bought it, the building was just a shell. So he shored it up with a new steel skeleton and footings, upgraded the utilities, installed an elevator, bathrooms and a fire escape and built an addition that serves as a mechanical room.
The interior featured exposed brick walls and wooden floors and ceilings that rose to 12 feet on the top two floors. There are bay windows, and there are views in four directions on the third floor and in three directions on the other two floors.
"The area is really starting to come around. The Grand Rapids Ballet is across the street and ITP is going in there. I think its time has come," Kirchgessner told the Business Journal in April 2002.
But Kirchgessner ended up selling the building to the ballet in August 2005 for $1.15 million.

I bought this for my Vietnamese Potbelly pig because she wasn't going to the bathroom frequently and her belly felt like it was blocked. Within a week of using this, she is going to the bathroom normally and her weight is much better maintained! Her belly feels normal now and she definitely feels better. Going to buy this for my chihuahua who has digestive issues! If you are trying to decide whether to get this or another product such as probios, get this! It's cheaper and the 16oz jar lasts a long time. This stuff is great. Very pleased!
"Fantastic readily available digestion aid"
We were suggested Fast track, which can be pricy & difficult to find. My first place to look was for a Jeffers equivalent...and that it does at a much better price. No digestion issues at all since starting our roping horses on this, when before it was a bi-monthly issue with stress & traveling. Also see Jeffers Mega Horse for the cure to weight issues & fast!
"Love it!"
This is a great supplement! I came to Jeffers looking for a decent all around supplement to help with my old guy and his iffy digestion and found this. I thought 'what the heck', so gave it a try, and I will always use it for him now! His coat is healthier, he is more solid, his appetite is increased and he is looking better all around. Perfect for us!
"I am a hobby breeder of Havanese and Havanese crosses. When my girls' hormones begin changing they can get upset tummies. I was already doing a coat supplement, but when I saw this I honestly said, ""Why not?"" I stopped the coat supplement I was using and began using the Jeffers Inner Balance and just hoping for the best. I sprinkled it into their food and, no kidding, by the very next day there was no evidence of any upset tummies. I never went back to the coat supplement I was using before since their coats are now looking even BETTER! Hey, shiny healthy coats PLUS no more upset tummies-I am now a loyal and faithful customer! P.S. the size is generous too!!!!"

How to Knit a Book Cover
Knitted book covers are fun to make and are nothing more than simple rectangles. Knitted book covers protect special volumes and provide privacy. This basic pattern is for a book cover that's worked in stockinette stitch with a simple seed stitch edging. It's sized to fit a standard three-ring binder with a 2-inch wide spine.
Here are this project's materials and vital statistics:
Yarn: Schaefer Yarns Miss Priss (100% merino wool); 280 yards (256 meters) per 115 grams; 1 skein; color: Jane Adams
Needles: US 9 (5.5 mm) needles, or the size needed to match gauge
Other materials: Three-ring binder with a 2-inch spine; yarn needle for finishing
Size: Fits a standard 10-by-12-inch three-ring binder
Gauge: 18 stitches and 22 rows per 4 inches in stockinette stitch
The book cover is worked from side to side, starting with a 4-inch flap that will be turned under to form the inside of the cover:
Cast on 57 sts.
Work the flap in seed stitch as follows:
All rows: K1, *p1, k1, repeat from * to end.
Repeat this row until the flap measures 4 inches.
Knit 1 WS row to form a turning ridge.
Begin working in stockinette stitch (knit RS rows, purl WS rows) with a three-stitch seed stitch border for the front of the journal cover as follows:
Row 1 (RS): K1, p1, k1, knit to last 2 sts, p1, k1.
Row 2 (WS): K1, p1, k1, purl to last 3 sts, k1, p1, k1.
Repeat these 2 rows for 21 inches.
Knit 1 WS row to create a turning ridge.
Switch back to seed stitch and work 4 more inches before binding off.
Block the piece so that it measures 12 by 29 inches and the edges are square.
When the piece is dry, fold the flaps toward the WS and sew the flap in place along the top and bottom edges.
Insert your binder by opening it and inserting the front and back covers into the pockets that you've created with the flaps.

NASHVILLE (AP) - Metro Nashville Police are holding a Decatur, Ga., man in jail after arresting him with phony Tennessee Titans tickets and $100 bills that appear counterfeit.
An undercover officer approached 46-year-old Tony McKibben on Sunday in downtown Nashville before the Titans-Bears football game.
Police said when McKibben realized he was talking to an officer, he tried to run, but was quickly apprehended.
Police charged him with theft, felony criminal simulation, identity theft and resisting police.
Authorities in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., said they will extradite McKibben on larceny charges after the Nashville charges are adjudicated.
McKibben was held Tuesday in the Davidson County Jail in lieu of $427,000 bond. Jail records do not indicate whether inmates have attorneys.

(Joaquín Salvador Lavado)
(b. 17/7/1932, Argentina)
Joaquín Salvador Lavado, who calls himself Quino, was born to Andalucian Spanish immigrants in the city of Mendoza, Argentina in 1932. In 1945, he enrolled at the School of Fine Arts in Mendoza, which he left four years later to become a graphic humorist and artist.
In the early fifties, Quino sold his first strip and tried his luck in Buenos Aires, before going into military service in 1953. A year later, he settled in Buenos Aires and saw his work published in the newspaper Esto Es. This was the beginning of a prolific career in newspaper comics and cartoons. Quino's work was published in numerous South American and European newspapers and magazines.
In 1960, Quino got married and met several colleagues and publishers on his honeymoon to Brazil. Still doing advertising work, Quino was asked to create a campaign to advertise the launch of a line of home appliances in 1963. This was the birth of the character 'Mafalda'. The campaign never ran, but Quino used Mafalda for a comic strip a year later, and she became a great success. Several books have been published all over the world, and there was even an animated 'Mafalda' film made.
In 1982, Quino was chosen "Cartoonist of the Year" by his colleagues around the world, and he chaired the jury of the International Exhibition of Humor in Montreal, Canada. He received the KONEX Platinum Award for Visual Arts - Graphic Humor, the first of many awards and prizes for his work, which, besides 'Mafalda', includes 'Mundo Quino' and 'A Mi No Me Grite'.

The market is slowly grinding higher but it feels like the rally could peter out in the weeks ahead. February is traditionally a weak month for equities, and breadth of the sectors rallying is narrowing. It would be natural if the market took a breather while it consolidates its significant gains over the first six weeks of the year. In addition, we have the upcoming sequester cuts to get through and we need to assess the slowdown in consumer spending from the payroll tax holiday that expired at the end of last year. I continue to underweight consumer discretionary stocks due to this headwind as well as the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, which could raise costs and reduce margins for a wide swath of retailers and restaurants. The push to raise the minimum wage to $9 an hour will not help sentiment on this sector, either.
Unlike the average consumer, farmers are doing very well. 2012 was a stellar year for farm income due to the abundant issuance of crop insurance that mitigated the damage done by the massive drought over the summer, and crop prices were strong. The U.S. Department of Agriculture just came out with a report saying it believes 2013 will be the best year for farm income since 1973. Midwest farmland prices are also at record levels, rising 16% year over year in the fourth quarter alone (Notation 2). The balance sheets and income prospects for farmers have rarely been in better shape.
I will be rotating some of the money made on some my consumer discretionary picks as options expire today and next month into companies that serve the American farmer. One stock I will be adding to is Deere & Co. (DE). This iconic farm-equipment maker reported earnings this week that easily beat estimates by a quarter per share but the stock fell because of disappointing guidance. The company's guidance was based on an assumption that cash receipts for crops in the U.S. will fall almost 2% in 2013, which contradicts the USDA forecast and should prove to be overly conservative.
The just-completed quarter showed solid strength in North America farm-equipment sales. Surprisingly, the company did not see a significant gain from the construction market (just under 20% of overall sales). This should change over in the coming quarter as the housing market and commercial construction continue to improve. Both Jefferies & Co. and Credit Suisse raised their earnings estimates on the stock after the company reported results. I would look for other analysts to follow suit in the weeks ahead.
Deere sells at just 11x 2013's current earnings projections. The company has a solid balance sheet and the stock yields 2%.
Finally, the company has managed well through the ups and downs of the last decade. It has increased revenues at just under a 10% compound annual growth rate over the last nine years and has grown earnings per share at more than 20% CAGR over that same period.

We've been covering Sun's Opteron-related plans for a while now, and just the other day we covered Sun's announcement that they'd soon be using the Opteron in a server line. Well today they officially announced their first new Opteron-based product, the Sun Fire v20z. From the spec sheet:
The dual-processor Sun Fire V20z server, first in a new line of AMD Opteron-based servers from Sun, delivers high performance, reliability, and scalability in a low-cost, ultra-dense, rack-optimized 1U form factor. With a single architecture, the Sun Fire V20z server supports both 32-bit and 64-bit computing, allowing you to maintain your existing x86 infrastructure while still enabling a smooth migration to next-generation 64-bit operating systems and applications.
Delivering a compelling price/perfomance solution, the Sun Fire V20z server features an integrated memory controller, up to 16 GB of memory, up to two Ultra320 SCSI hard drives, dual on-board Gigabit Ethernet, and Lights Out Management. This set of features is ideal for a wide range of applications, including high-performance technical computing, Web or application serving, database management, and grid computing.
The Sun Fire V20z server also offers exceptional flexibility and choice through support of multiple operating systems, including 64-bit Red Hat and SUSE Linux, as well as 32-bit Red Hat Linux. The Solaris Operating System (x86 Platform Edition) will be available in 32-bit (April 2004) and 64-bit (support available soon). As an added benefit, Sun offers complete system support when you purchase Linux or the Solaris OS (x86 Platform Edition).
This announcement also coincides with the news that Sun is acquiring an Opteron server-making start-up founded by a former Sun co-founder. (Press release here.) Both of these announcements would seem to indicate that Sun is getting into the Opteron (and Linux) in a big way, but given what they did (or rather didn't do) with Cobalt it remains to be seen if they can actually follow through.

Can anyone suggest if this is viable on Linux? I have searched and found many many results using VLC but nothing that matches previous Windows Media Services on Windows Server 2008 that we were using.
- Needs to support push streams from multiple clients - all windows based
- Setting up channels (publishing points) so clients can stream live video
So clients can use VLC or any other software that can push the stream to the linux server and the server will broadcast it to the world.
I hope this is the correct place to ask this :)

Get Your Game Face on for the Ladies of VH1's 'Football Wives'
New Series Premieres Sunday, October 24 at 10:30 PM ET/PT
Catch Sneak Peeks and Exclusive Clips on VH1.com
NEW YORK, Sept. 23 -- Tighten your helmets and put on those extra pads because football season is about to get intense as the wives and girlfriends behind some of the sport's most elite players take the field on VH1 Sunday, October 24 at 10:30 PM ET/PT.
A flashy team of Football Wives will give viewers a never-before-seen look into the glamorous, and dramatic, life of a professional football player's spouse in VH1's original series. VH1's "Football Wives" include:
Pilar Sanders, married to Deion Sanders, all-pro cornerback, retired
Amanda Davis married to Leonard Davis, guard, Dallas
Chanita Foster, married to George Foster, tackle, UFL
Brittany Pigrenet, girlfriend of David Buehler, kicker, Dallas
Dawn Neufeld, married to Ryan Neufeld, tight end, UFL
Melani Ismail, married to Rocket Ismail, receiver, retired
Erin McBriar, married to Mat McBriar, punter, Dallas
Mercedes Nelson ex-girlfriend of a star player, Dallas
Set in the cradle of American football, Dallas, this series goes inside the real-life locker room of the spouses of some of the biggest footballers in the game. Many of these ladies live the life. They drive the best cars, live in the biggest mansions, wear designer clothes and jewelry, and travel first class. But living the high life is not all glamour and is frequently fleeting. Football players are often injured so their partners are forced to not only play wife, but also be a mother or nurse to their man. The careers of these modern-day gladiators span only a few years on average and their life-expectancy is alarmingly low. There is often a fine line between the stars who collect big contracts and the journeymen who fight to stay in the league, sometimes struggling to pay their bills. And unlike basketball players, football stars travel less for games and are more often home with their families. What price will they pay for enduring the equivalent of multiple head-on collisions on any given Sunday?
Full episodes and extra scenes from "Football Wives" will be available on VH1.com and through VH1 Mobile each week following the show's on-air premiere.
"Football Wives" is produced by Shed Media. Executive producing for Shed Media are Nick Emmerson, Jennifer O'Connell, Alex Demyanenko, and Leola Westbrook. Tom Huffman is a consulting producer. Shaunie O'Neal and Phil Robinson are executive producers. Executive producing for VH1 are Jeff Olde, Jill Holmes and Noah Pollack.
VH1 connects viewers to the music, artists and pop culture that matter to them most with TV series, specials, live events, exclusive online content and public affairs initiatives. VH1 is available in 98 million households in the U.S. VH1 also has an array of digital channels and services including VH1Classic, VH1 Soul, VH1 Mobile, VH1Games and extensive broadband video on VH1.com.

SALISBURY, N.C. - Juliana Conte found the back of the net 1:39 into the second overtime period to lift host Catawba College to a 3-2 victory over Pfeiffer University in non-conference women's soccer action on Wednesday night. Taylor Arrowood started the game-winning play via corner kick to lift the Indians to 7-4 overall while the Lady Falcons drop to 5-5.
Just to get into overtime, Pfeiffer needed a second half goal after Catawba took a 2-1 lead into intermission. Inside the 67th minute of play, Mandi Roan provided that game-tying goal blasting a shot from 30 yards out.
Earlier in the evening, Conte started scoring on the night in the seventh minute of play sliding a shot underneath Pfeiffer keeper Britt Polly for a 1-0 lead. Stephanie Hardig would deposit a loose ball in the 21st minute after a quick assist from Kayla Rodriguez. Catawba would regain their lead in the 43rd minute just before the half from a 20-yard shot.
The region rivals each fired eight shots on the night and five on goal. Catawba held a 4-2 advantage in corners, including the game-winner set piece, while both sides combined for 33 fouls on the night. Angelica Pawlowski stopped three shots in net for Catawba while Polly turned away two for Pfeiffer.
The Lady Falcons will now look to a Conference Carolinas Saturday matinee at Lees-McRae. Both the Lady Falcons and Bobcats are currently standing at 4-1 inside league play. Kickoff is slated for 1:00 p.m.

Matt & Angela ~ It was amazing to see you two raw food celebrities in person in Livonia, MI last night. Also, thanks for the "extra" bag of kale chips. My 3 year old loved them! :) You two are even more beautiful and radiant in person. I hope to meet up with you again someday. In the meantime, I will keep in touch via The Raw Food World. Peace & Blessings to you both. Namasté, ~*~Jennifer~*~

Kanye West Was Originally Set for Rolling Stone Bomber Cover
Rolling Stone magazine sparked controversy with its current issue featuring Boston bomber Dzhokhar "Jahar" Tsarnaev on the cover, which debuted last week. Now the Hollywood Reporter reveals that the cover was intended for Kanye West.
Apparently, Ye pulled out of the slot because he didn't want to talk about his newborn daughter North West -- his girlfriend Kim Kardashian gave birth to the baby on June 15.
Editors at the magazine also had a backup plan to place rocker Bruce Springsteen on the cover in the event that the rapper couldn't (or wouldn't) do it.
The bomber story was reportedly already written and intended to run, but it was editor and publisher Jann Wenner who chose the bomber cover image.
There has been criticism aimed at Rolling Stone for placing Tsarnaev's image on the cover, with some saying the publication is sensationalizing a tragedy. A statement was issued regarding the cover:
"Our hearts go out to the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing, and our thoughts are always with them and their families. The cover story we are publishing this week falls within the traditions of journalism and Rolling Stone's long-standing commitment to serious and thoughtful coverage of the most important political and cultural issues of our day. The fact that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is young, and in the same age group as many of our readers, makes it all the more important for us to examine the complexities of this issue and gain a more complete understanding of how a tragedy like this happens."

ORLANDO, Fla. -- The Brandeis baseball team split its first two games against Division III opponents today, as the Judges fell to Augustana (Ill.) College, 12-0, in the first game of a doubleheader, but rallied for a 3-1 win in the second contest, behind rookie Kyle Brenner's (Brookfield, Mass./St. Peter Marian) complete game nine-hitter in his first collegiate start. The Judges improve to 2-1 overall on the season, while the Vikings are 1-1.
Brenner struck out three and walked two in his Brandeis debut. He worked out of trouble in the first, getting out of a bases-loaded, one-out with a pop out and grounder to second. Augustana scored on a double and a single to start the second inning, but Brenner got pickoffs in the second and third to help keep the Vikings at bay. He retired the side in the fourth and fifth innings, while stranding one runner each in the sixth and seventh to go the distance.
After falling behind in the top of the second, the Judges answered in the bottom of the frame. Junior CF Chris Ferro (Walpole, Mass./Walpole) led off with a single and scored two batters later on a base hit by rookie DH Dan Gad (Mansfield, Mass./Mansfield). Ferro also produced the game-winning run in the third inning. Senior 2B Sean O'Hare (Southampton, Mass./Hampshire Regional) led off with a single and stole second. Viking junior Ben Heaton (Heyworth, Ill.) got the next two batters on a pop-up to third and a fly ball to center, but Ferro responded with what proved to be the game-winning hit. Brandeis added an insurance run in the fourth inning when rookie RF Zach Bardwell (No. Andover, Mass./Central Catholic) singled, stole second and moved to third on a throwing error. Junior SS Dom Schwartz (San Fransisco, Cal./Lowell) executed a succesful squeeze play for the Judges' third run. Ferro, O'Hare and Bardwell all finished with two hits for the game.
In the opener, the Vikings scored in every inning but one, jumping out to a 7-0 lead after two innings against Brandeis starting lefty Mike Swerdloff (Scarsdale, N.Y./Ardsley), who suffered the loss. The top two hitters in the Augie lineup, junior SS Jeremy Juhl (Lombard, Ill.) and junior 2B Kurt Schmidt (Grayslake, Ill.) each went 2-for-3 with three runs scored, while senior RF Kevin Serna (Arlington Heights, Ill.) was 3-for-3 with two doubles, two RBI and two runs scored. Senior Mike Trotta (Chicago, Ill.) tossed a complete-game four-hitter. O'Hare was the only Brandeis batter with hits in both games, going 3-for-6 with a stolen base and run scored on the afternoon.

CLEARANCE - Understanding The Marshall Attack
A Layman's Guide to the Supergrandmasters' Favourite GambitProduct Code: B0160GB
Publisher: Gambit Publications
Author: David Vigorito
Year of Publication: 2010
Pages: 192
Notation Type: Figurine (FAN)br>
The Marshall Attack is a chess opening like no other. Rather than subjecting himself to the 'Spanish torture' so typical in the Ruy Lopez, Black simply gives away a centre pawn. But in return, he gets long-term attacking chances and activity that can persist well into the endgame.
It is almost a century since Frank Marshall invented his sensational gambit, but it is still controversial, and more popular than ever amongst the best players in the world. In their hands, the Marshall Attack looks remarkably solid - even if White neutralizes Black's attacking chances and remains a pawn up, Black often achieves full positional compensation.
However, the Marshall appears a forbidding opening to ordinary club players, who feel that the theory is too difficult to understand and much too complex to memorize. Many simply avoid it with both colours. That, argues David Vigorito, is a shame. He shows that many typical Marshall positions can be broken down into elements that we can all grasp, and so build up an intuition to guide us. Then we are able to tackle this incredible opening and develop a feel for why pieces go to the squares that they do, and when Black has sufficient compensation, and when he does not.
Of course, the Marshall remains a highly sharp and concrete opening, even to those who are versed in its unique brand of black magic. Vigorito provides detailed, cutting-edge theoretical coverage of all its main lines and the most important Anti-Marshall systems.
David Vigorito is an International Master from the United States. He plays regularly in high-level competitions, including the US Championship. He has written extensively for a variety of publications and is a chess teacher. This is his second book for Gambit - see also Chess Explained: the Main-Line Slav.

Oi. It's probably a bad thing that I hadn't even hear of the whole "swine flu" thing until I read xkcd this morning. "Wtf is swine flu?" I asked, but had to run to class. And then the blogosphere exploded about it.
Yeaaahh, I admit it, I'm a bad college student sometimes. I was much more up on current events when I was in high school, because we'd watch the news at dinner. Now I kind of live in my little bubble. At least I know I'll eventually find out important things through my blogs, albeit a little late. Hopefully there's never a 24 hour evacuation notice for West Lafayette, or I'm doomed.

Tonya- Your baby is adorable!! Love the pics.
Kala- thanks for praying for me and my boys.
Unfortunately my pre-e is not holding off. My levels of protein are getting to a scary point and my Dr. says we are going to deliver at 32 weeks. Thats Monday! I'm kinda freaking out, yet I know this is what is best for the health of all three of us. My DH and I are going to tour the NICU tomorrow I hope I am able to hold myself together in there!
I will update once my boys are here, pleae keep us in your thoughts!

No child should be on a calorie-restricted diet, unless recommended by the doctor. However, parents need to be aware of their children's calorie needs so that they can help their children maintain
energy balance.
Step 1: The chart below can give you a general idea of how many calories your child needs per day based on his or her age range, gender, and physical activity level.
Walking to school is an example of being moderately active. Playing a game of
basketball is an example of being vigorously active.
Step 2: After you find out how many calories your child needs, use the chart below to help you plan how much food from each
food group to serve each day.
Keep in mind that if your child consumes extra calories beyond what is needed the calories need to be burned off with extra physical activity. Extra calories can quickly add up depending on what your children eat or drink.
For example, if your child eats or drinks an extra 100 calories each day beyond his or her calorie needs and does not burn off the extra calories, that's an extra 700 calories each week, an extra 2, 800 each month (4 weeks), or an extra 36,500 calories each year.
Step 3: Ask your child's doctor if you have any questions. Remember, these 2 charts are only a guide and each child's needs are different.
Remember that each child's energy needs are different. For instance, your child may need more energy during growth spurts or active participation in
sports. It's not necessary to eat the exact total amounts from each group every day. Rather, intake should average out over a period of 1 to 2 weeks, to ensure healthy intake of calories along with essential nutrients.
The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) recommends the following daily amounts for each food group based on different calorie needs. These are only guidelines. Another resource from the USDA and Agricultural Research Service is a
Kid Energy Needs Calculator.

If you haven't checked to see how much your home is worth lately, you might be in for a pleasant surprise.
Nationally, the median list price of a single family home is $189,900, up 5.6 percent compared to March 2011, according to Realtor.com.
Here's another good-news statistic: Inventory of for-sale single family homes is down 21.5 percent on the national level.
But, like the weather, all real estate is local.
In Phoenix, where I live, you could hear a collective sigh of relief sweep through the Valley after news that the median list price jumped a whopping 23.5 percent, to $179,000. The inventory of total listings is down 48 percent.
Unfortunately for Chicagoans, median list price fell 9.5 percent there, to $190,000, even though inventory also declined nearly 16 percent.
For folks who are going to buy or sell a home this year, knowing this kind of information is crucial. Even if you're staying put, it's smart to know where you stand when it comes to your biggest investment.
Several real estate websites -- and their companion apps -- will help you do just that.
Zillow(AT) (www.zillow.com)
Type in your address -- or any home you're curious about -- to see what the "Zestimate" is. If you're a homeowner and disagree with a Zestimate, check to see if the facts about your home are wrong or out of date. You're allowed to update your home facts, but you can't remove your home from the site.
If you're an investor or curious about what your home would fetch in monthly rent, Zillow also provides a Rent Zestimate for properties.
Keep in mind that estimates are only starting points. They're no substitute for a professional appraisal or a comparative market analysis.
Be sure to check out Zillow's fun Make Me Move feature. If you're not quite ready to put your house on the market, this could be a good way to test the waters and alert potential buyers. Name your "can't refuse" price and see what happens!
At Trulia, you can get an estimate of your home's value simply by entering your address. Edit or add facts about your property if information is wrong or missing.
Trulia is an excellent tool if you're house hunting. It's helpful whether you're looking to move across town or across the country. Search for homes for sale by city, state or zip code.
In addition to standard searches based on price range and number of bedrooms and baths, Trulia allows more creative searches, too. Already know the market and just need to see new listings as they come up? Confine your search to listings that have been added in the past seven days. Still want to search without a Realtor? Search for open houses only. Looking for a bargain? Try searching just by new price reductions or look for houses in foreclosure.
Trulia's unique Heat Maps provide a graphic picture of an area's sales, price trends and popularity. Adjust the Heat Map by neighborhood, city, county and state. You'll also find school ratings, information about nearby businesses and comments from local residents. Have a question? Try asking it in the Q&A forum and get advice from a local real estate agent.
Realtor.com (www.realtor.com)
More than 900 Multiple Listing Services across the U.S. funnel home listings here -- the official site of the National Association of Realtors. If you're serious about selling your home and want an informative report on your home's value and comparable sales in the neighborhood, this is the place to go.
Click past the front page and Realtor.com becomes a trove of information about mortgages, real estate trends and other topics. In the Home& Garden section, for instance, you'll find advice about how to tackle common home improvement projects and save money on energy.

Fully Protected Animals
The classification of Fully Protected was the State's initial effort in the 1960's to identify and provide additional protection to those animals that were rare or faced possible extinction. Lists were created for fish, mammals. amphibians and reptiles, birds and mammals. Please note that most fully protected species have also been listed as threatened or endangered species under the more recent endangered species laws and regulations.
Fully Protected species may not be taken or possessed at any time and no licenses or permits may be issued for their take except for collecting these species for necessary scientific research and relocation of the bird species for the protection of livestock.
The following common and scientific names are those given in the Fish and Game Code Sections 3511, 4700, 5050 and 5515. However, some of these names are no longer consistent with current scientific nomenclature.

SPARC-ACRL Forum to Explore Progress of Open Access Journal Publishing Models
Saturday, June 23, 2007, 4:00 - 5:30PM
Georgetown Room, Hilton Washington
Join us for the popular upcoming SPARC-ACRL Forum on emerging issues in scholarly communication "Course check: A conversation with three open access publishers about the challenges of sustainability."
System-wide innovations that increase access to the results of research and scholarship are a key interest for the library community. Library support for these innovations, which ranges from being deeply engaged to dedicating scarce resources, is built upon the principle of open access – on evidence that open access accelerates the production, dissemination, and benefits of new knowledge, and on an understanding of the paths and business models that can deliver it. It is with this last point in mind that three of the most important and innovative leaders in scholarly publishing have been asked to speak:
- Mark Patterson, Director of Publishing, Public Library of Science
- Paul Peters, Head of Business Development, Hindawi Publishing Corporation
- Bryan Vickery, Deputy Publisher, BioMed Central and Editorial Director, Chemistry Central
World Premier of "The Hollywood Librarian: Librarians in Cinema and Society"
Friday, June 22, 2007
The Hollywood Librarian will be the first full-length film to focus on the work and lives of librarians in the entertaining and appealing context of American movies. American film contains hundreds of examples of librarians and libraries on screen -- some positive, some negative, some laughable and some dead wrong. Dozens of interviews of real librarians will be interwoven with movie clips of cinematic librarians and serve as transitions between the themes of censorship, intellectual freedom, children and librarians, pay equity and funding issues, and the value of reading. Join us for the premiere of this film!
The premiere will take place in Washington, D.C. on Friday, June 22nd, during the ALA Conference. Washington Convention Center, Hall D, where doors will open at 7:30 p.m. with a red carpet walk. The film premiere begins at 8:00 p.m. This is a no-charge event; attendees, however, must have an ALA conference or exhibits badge, or be the guest of a person with a badge. Black tie is optional. Staff from D.C. libraries are also invited to attend but will need to show a badge or some other proof that they work at an area library.

Preconference: Creating A Staff Development Plan
Friday, June 22, 2007, 1:00-5:00 pm
In today's environment, library staff have to work harder than ever to stay informed and keep up with changes. How can libraries encourage all staff to continually develop their skills? A systematic staff development plan can address the learning needs of library staff and increase their effectiveness on the job. This half-day session is a step-bystep introduction to the process of addressing the issue of staff development from needs assessment through planning. Do you need a staff development plan?

ALCTS/CCS Cataloging Norms Discussion Group
Saturday, June 23, 2007, 1:30-3:30 pm
The ALCTS/CCS Cataloging Norms Discussion Group will present the following program at the ALA Annual Conference in Washington, D.C., on Saturday June 23, 2007, 1:30pm-3:30pm, Capital Hilton, Federal A:
Designing Workflows that Meet Local Needs: Two Case Studies
Jackie Shieh, Senior Associate Librarian, Data Loads & Development, Harlan Hatcher Graduate Library, University of Michigan
In 1994-1999, the University of Virginia created TEI-header metadata for its Electronic Text Center collection, and then converted into SIRSI MARC ASCII to load to its online system. An original cataloger and a paraprofessional were responsible for all electronic resources cataloging, including Web sites, diskettes, discs, etc. The creation of TEI header metadata was part of their overall responsibilities.
University of Michigan, on the other hand, makes use of all existing MARC records by converting them to various project-based metadata formats for its digital library projects, e.g., BibClass, Dublin Core, DC for OAI-PMH, MODS, etc. A cataloger is in charge of the operation of providing MARC to non-MARC data, who is also responsible of ensuring quality for non-MARC metadata to MARC for local online system. The same cataloger is the person who communicates to System Administrator of specific Perl module needs regarding record conversion.
Integrating Non-MARC Metadata into the Workflow of a Traditional Technical Services Department: Perspectives from Librarians at the University of Tennessee Technical Services and Digital Access Team
Melanie Feltner-Reichert, Metadata Librarian and Assistant Professor, University of Tennessee Hodges Library
Marielle Veve, Catalog Librarian and Assistant Professor, University of Tennessee Hodges Library
What are the challenges and rewards of integrating non-MARC metadata production into a technical services department? Melanie Feltner-Reichert and Marielle Veve will explore their recent experience of adding the creation of Metadata Object Description Schema (MODS) records to the traditional duties of technical services librarians and support staff at the University of Tennessee Hodges Library. The presenters will share their local process of integration, lessons learned from the early stages of implementation, and the surprising modifications to workflow that emerged out of practice.
Building Library 1.1
Charley Pennell, Principal Cataloger for Metadata, Metadata and Cataloging, North Carolina State University
Kristin Antelman, Associate Director for the Digital Library, North Carolina State University
Libraries operate within a culture that posits collaborating towards a common good, through resource sharing, cooperative development of standards, and the building of common work tools. The semantic Web, and the recent rapprochement between RDA and DCMI, have the potential to advance our contribution to the common good in ways that have never been possible before, yet there are still economic, legal, technical and cultural hurdles that are likely to conspire to keep libraries working within institutional silos. This talk will look at how the NCSU Libraries is trying to work toward a more open catalog platform by creating a web services layer to support features such as RSS and by integrating structured data from outside of the ILS, starting with classification and geographical hierarchies, and potentially extending to chronological hierarchies, FRBR "work-level" records, and academic discipline-related vocabularies. These efforts point to the need for access to additional data that is outside the local machine environment. We look at some of these data sources and assess the obstacles that will have to be overcome before library catalogs, and librarians, will be able to fully join the broader Web 2.0 discovery environment.
Learning When There Is No Time or Money.
Saturday, June 23, 2007, 1:30-3:30 pm
Are you running out of ideas for ways to keep your staff current, up-to-date, and informed when time and money are limited? If you're experiencing shrinking budgets, information overload, complex technologies and fast-paced change, you're not alone. Don't be frustrated! Instead, meet your training challenge with excitement, a fresh perspective and a renewed purpose. From training tracks to tracking training, you'll learn about a variety of training tools and resources which will energize your staff and create an environment where learning is fun and time is well-spent. Whether you have only 30 minutes, 60 minutes or 90 minutes to teach a skill or learn something new, you'll be able to use the ideas and resources from this session to put together an action plan to take back to your library.
Led by Pat Carterette, Training and Staff Development Coordinator, Cleveland Heights-University Heights Public Library
Learning for Library Staff: Make it Blended – Not on the Rocks!: Developing Blended Learning programs for Library Staff

Reference and User Services Association (RUSA) President's Program, 2007
Time Odyssey: Visions of Reference and User Services
Once upon a time, there existed reference librarians. Working in libraries and depending on books and the Internet, they helped people do research and answered questions — free of charge! — in-person, over the phone, and via e-mail and instant messaging. But, of course, since then, things have changed. The year is 2017, and the world is not as we knew it. Speaking at this year's RUSA President's Program are four individuals who, through story, will paint pictures of how they imagine the world will be 10 years from now. How will anthropological, economical, political, and technological forces shape what it means to provide reference services in libraries?
Speakers include Genevieve Bell, Director of User Experience at Intel and an anthropologist; Lee Rainie, Director, Pew Internet & American Life Project; Allen Renear, Professor of Library and Information Science at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign; and Wendy Schultz, Director of Infinite Futures and Fellow of the World Futures Studies Federation. Steven Bell, Associate University Librarian for Research and Instructional Services at Temple University and blogger at the ACRLog and The Kept-Up Academic Librarian, will act as moderator and conclude the program a story of his own.
Plan to attend the RUSA President's Program on Monday, June 25, 2007 from 1:30-3:30 in the Grand Hyatt Constitution A-B. Be prepared to be challenged and to continue the conversation with your colleagues!
LAMA Public Relations and Marketing Section, Education and Training Committee Program
"Ignite Your Library's Public Relations and Outreach Using Hot Technologies"
Monday June 25, 10:30 - noon, Washington Convention Center, 146C
Looking for fresh marketing ideas for your library? Trying to lure those illusive teens to your branch? Want to get undergraduates to think beyond Google and check out your collections?

While it seemed like the thong was nearing extinction with the rise of the bum-hugging boy short, the tides appear to be shifting of late—at least when it comes to swimwear.
First Rihanna and Nicki Minaj showed off their cheek-less suits, and now our cover girl Sofia Vergara posted a selfie sunbathing in what appears to be a thong bikini. (Can we say hot?!)
Looks like the itty-bitty clothing item is having quite the resurrection. Sisqo fans rejoice! Would you wear one to the beach this summer?

The size of a finite skeletal category C in the sense of Leinster is defined as follows: Label the objects of C by integers 1,2,...,n and let aij be the number of morphisms from i to j (for i and j between 1 and n). The size (or Euler characteristic) of C is defined as the sum of the entries of the inverse of the nxn matrix A=(aij), if the inverse exists.
Let Fq be a finite field with q elements. For every natural number i, there is up to isomorphism exactly one Fq-vector space Vi of dimension i. The number of linear maps from Vi to Vj is equal to qij. We ignore the zero dimensional vector space V0. Consider the infinite matrix
where rows and and columns are indexed by positive integers 1,2,3,... From now on let us treat q as a formal parameter, don't care about convergence issues, and set v=q-1.
Is there a notion of an inverse of Q? (The entries will probably be formal power series in v.) If the answer is yes, what is a closed form for the sum of the entries of the inverse (as a formal power series in v), i.e. the size of the category of finite dimensional Fq-vector spaces?
At least every truncation Qn of Q to an upper left nxn corner has an inverse for every positive integer n, since Qn is a Vandermonde matrix. What is the limit of the sum of the entries of Qn-1 as n goes to infinity? I believe the answer is a power series in v. Is there an explicit form?
How can you interpret the answer? Is it the Euler characteristic of some moduli space? Is it equal or related to a sum of 1/Gl(Vi)? Does something interesting happen at q=1?

A fungal nail infection is a fungus gets into your fingernail, toenail, or the skin under your nail, usually through a small cut.
The infected toenail usually turns white or yellow. Sometimes it's painful.
Toenails that are exposed to moisture and warmth a lot are more likely to get infected by a fungus. This can happen from wearing sweaty shoes often and from walking barefoot on shower floors.
Toenail fungus usually doesn't need treatment unless it's causing pain. It often comes back after it has cleared up.

NAMM 2013 Gino's Hits
Synths, 500 Series, Stylophones, and all of the hits from Anaheim
By Gino Robair
For a second year in a row, there was an exuberant feel at the NAMM show as record crowds packed into the Anaheim Convention Center and exhibitors showed off plenty of new products. And, like last year, mobile connectivity was the buzz throughout the various product sectors—both for iDevices and Android—as well as the exponential growth in the world of modular 500 Series products and Eurorack synths.
But the excitement on opening day revolved around four major hardware synth releases: the Dave Smith Instruments Prophet 12, the Moog Music Sub Phatty, and remakes of the legendary Buchla Music Easel and Korg MS-20. Dave Smith told us that the Prophet 12 was the apex of his design work, providing 12 powerful voices, a collection of new effects, and the touch-control strips that were introduced on the Tempest. Moog's Sub Phatty, on the other hand, is a diminutive powerhouse of a monosynth that, among other things, has snappier-sounding envelopes than its stablemates, yet provides a rich sound palette and great playability.
Buchla's Music Easel marks the return of a classic semi-modular analog design, but with modern touches on the control side (digital capacitive keyboard, MIDI, and the promise of Bluetooth and iPad patch control). While the show units weren't fully operational and didn't sound quite the original (yet), it was a very exciting announcement for analog-synth users, and certainly a blast to play.
Korg's new MS-20 Mini is smaller than the vintage model (86% of the original's size) but with instantly recognizable features such as the resonant filters and patchbay with 3.5mm mini jacks. However, as a modern instrument it includes MIDI and USB connectivity to give you complete creative control. Korg also unveiled its Kingkorg, a great sounding 61-note virtual-analog performance keyboard that features a 12AX7 tube for coloring the sound, emulations of classic analog filters, and CV/gate outputs.
On the "Lunchbox" front, a major announcement came from Aphex with the USB 500 Rack, which features a built-in 24-bit/96kHz, 6x8 USB interface. Use it as a digital interface with a DAW (utilizing your 500 modules) or integrate it into a fully analog environment. It sports a pair of headphone jacks, S/PDIF and MIDI I/O, and internal busing. And priced at $749, it's poised to steal the lunch from the traditional interface manufacturers.
Reason and Cubase users were very excited about the Nektar Panorama P-1 USB controller, which provides highly integrated control over both DAWs and more generic over others. The design is taken directly from the center section of the Panorama P4 and P6 USB keyboards, but the P-1 eschews keys and drum pads while keeping its heavy duty faders (9), rotary encoders (16), buttons, transport controls, and function keys. Its ability to store complex macros makes this a powerful studio tool when a mouse just isn't doing it for you.
Zildjian made a splash this year with a major redesign of its Gen16 Acoustic-Electric (AE) cymbal system. The new Direct Source Pickup is a small piezo-like device that you attach to the company's mesh-like electronic cymbals or to traditional cymbals. Because the trigger sits directly on the instrument, it sends a stronger signal to the AE controller and DSP system, which results is a higher quality sound at every dynamic level and without feedback problems.
As usual, there was a lot of activity in the depths of Hall E, where the most innovative companies tend to be. The Canadian upstarts iConnectivity showed the new 4+, a rugged little interface for iOS devices that passes audio and MIDI between, say, a USB controller, your iPad, and your Mac/PC computer. It offers four DIN ports, three device ports, an Ethernet port, and it can handle multiple MIDI and audio devices. Best of all, it can route MIDI and audio directly to your DAW simultaneously, allowing you to get pro-level recordings from your apps. Sweet!
A particularly fun surprise was the re-introduction of the Dubreq Stylophone from the UK, this time in the form of a monophonic, 2-oscillator analog synthesizer. With its metal keyboard that can be played with stylus or finger like the original, the Stylophone S2 has a 2-pole filter, an LFO, a sub oscillator, trigger and CV inputs, an aux input and it can run on batteries. And as you'd expect, it's quite joy to play.
Stay tuned to emusician.com over the next few weeks as we look more closely at the coolest products unveiled at NAMM 2013.
