(Left to right) Joe Solomon, Taylor Books manager Dan Carlisle and owner Ann Saville discuss the shops latest addition: a used book room. The store is hosting a Book Blizzard Thursday to gather donations for the room, which will open next month.
It started with a back room that had only a cat and a mountain of cardboard inside.
With a little vision and some elbow grease, Taylor Books has changed that ignored spaced into a used book room.
Joe Solomon, curator of the shops latest project, first approached bookstore manager Dan Carlisle with the idea during a job interview.
Part of his resume said something about running his own used bookshop, which I found very interesting, said Carlisle, who showed him the room during that meeting.
Solomon, while living in Brooklyn, ran a used bookstore on the Internet.
I vowed never ever, ever to do that ever again. Because while the books were real, I never met all the people the books were going out to and finding homes with, Solomon said.
The idea had been germinating at the shop for years, Carlisle said.
We have talked about it and talked about it. Gone through different phases of, Yes, we can do this, No, its not possible, Carlisle said.

ELDRIDGE There is a significant discrepancy in knowledge and talent inside Dan Knight's practice room.
In one corner, Bettendorf has three nationally ranked wrestlers, two other state champions and a state runner-up.
The other side of the room features a plethora of inexperience, particularly at the upper three weights, after 220-pounder Max Erpelding has been ruled out for the season.
For Bettendorf to have any opportunity of defending its state duals title come February, Knight realizes the development of the latter is paramount.
"The attitude is there, the work ethic is there, but they just need mat time and to do things over and over again," Knight said after the Bulldogs defeated Davenport Central 80-0 and North Scott 43-24 in a Mississippi Athletic Conference double dual Thursday night at The Pit. "It will take time."
In the meantime, there is added pressure on Bettendorf's established wrestlers to produce bonus points.
They delivered.
After North Scott won four of the first five bouts to build a 21-3 advantage, Bettendorf recovered with four falls, a major decision and forfeit win to seal the triumph.
"For me, it is more individual pressure than team pressure," said 120-pounder Jacob Schwarm, who had a pair of first-period falls on the night. "I'm always looking for pins and bonus points."
In addition to Schwarm, Jack Wagner (113 pounds), Fredy Stroker (145) and Jacob Woodard (152) had pins for the Bulldogs. It marked the 100th career fall for Stroker.

BC Lions Annual Locker Room Sale Set for Saturday
Kiyen's Japanese Restaurant is an odd-looking place. There's the typical hostess station setup at the entrance, but piled all around that are tables, chairs and other dining room ephemera that serve as a wall to block off half the dining room. Apparently, the part that is blocked off was originally designed to accommodate tableside hibachi cooking, left over from the previous occupant, Papa Sushi. It seems Kiyen's has decided not to go that route. The open side of the dining room is free from all clutter, though, and provides a nice space for lunch or dinner.
We bring up the entrance because we have to admit that our first impression of Kiyen's wasn't a great one. In addition to the rummage sale look by the front door, there was only one server for the busy dining room, which meant we spent quite a bit more time with our menus than was necessary. When our poor, harried server did finally make it to our table, she apologized immediately for the wait, took our order and spent the rest of the meal steadily changing that bad first impression into something quite good through a generous dose of hard work.
Our moods brightened even further when our food, an assortment of sushi, came. The basic tuna roll ($7) was filled with large pieces of fresh, ruby red tuna, wrapped in the sort of lightly seasoned, slightly warm rice and seaweed. The spicy tuna roll ($7) didn't fare quite as well the tuna was minced and a touch mushy but it still tasted good. A final tuna-themed roll, the Kiss of Fire Roll ($12), was a combination of the other two: minced tuna and cucumber wrapped in rice and seaweed, then topped with more fish and a spicy sauce a tuna lover's dream. Some of the wraps fell apart, but we managed.
On a follow-up visit for dinner we branched out and tried some of the non-sushi portions of the menu. A plate of chicken fried rice ($7.99) came out piping hot and chock-full of goodies. A bowl of miso soup ($2.99), sadly, suffered from some separation issues that left a layer of clear water on top and all the miso at the bottom. The dish of the night was the oddly named "Heading to the Mountain" salad ($9.99), which piled seared tuna and fried noodles atop a bowl of spring mix to great effect, and was only made better by the addition of a tangy dressing. Not being able to go without sushi completely, we made our way through a California roll ($5) and a spider roll ($12), and were pleased by both, especially the delicious tempura-battered soft-shell crab in the spider. The dining room wasn't nearly as chaotic on this second visit, and our server the same as before took excellent care of us.
Kiyen's is tucked away in the Centre at Chenal shopping center on the east side of Chenal Parkway just south of the mammoth Promenade at Chenal meaning that it may not stand out from the gilded crowd. The cluttered and understaffed dining room issues certainly don't help this. The kitchen is talented, though, and everyone was so friendly on both our visits that we think Kiyen's has the potential to become one of Little Rock's top restaurants for both traditional Japanese food and Asian fusion cuisine. We saw things on the menu that we'll try when we return and for us, that's the best sign of a good restaurant we can think of.

FULTON COUNTY, Ga.
A Duluth mother says she found a hidden room of mold in her rental room after an unexplained illness.
As a mom knowing your child was exposed to that, said Cherylyn Woody, the tenant.
The last couple of months she has gone to the pediatrician, she had an inhaler, shes never had problems before, Woody said of her 4-year-old daughter.
In addition, Woody showed Channel 2 Action News lab test results that detected eight fungi in her sinuses. The two moved into the Duluth home about nine months ago.
Woody, who was alarmed, hired a mold inspector from BIO ONE Atlanta to come out and check her rental property on Highland Pine Way.
At first, inspector Paul Cervino says he did not see any problems in the main house or the crawl space.
Upon further investigation I pulled this board right over and we found a room segregated from the rest of the house, Cervino said.
Cervino said the room, hidden behind boards, was out of view.
We noticed there is a flight of stairs that leads into an access point that has recently been covered up with sheet rock and plaster, Cervino said.

Four time world champion Sebastian Vettel stands in front of Red Bull's trophy cabinet which has been cleared out by burglars

(CNN) -- The Red Bull Formula One team has had its trophy cabinet cleared out by thieves in a smash-and-grab burglary Friday night.
The British-based marque has won 50 grands prix, four constructor titles and four drivers' world championships in its 10-year history.
The spoils of this success had been on display in the reception to its factory, which is based on an industrial estate in Milton Keynes, England.
"We are obviously devastated by this serious factory break-in, which saw offenders drive a vehicle through our front entrance and steal more than 60 trophies which took years and hard work to accumulate," Red Bull team principal Christian Horner said in a statement.
"The break in caused significant damage and was very upsetting for our night officers who were on duty at the time.

HOTEL HEALTH: It pays to check up on your hotel before you book.
The difference between a hotel room at $75 a night and $750 a night is the view, the extra shampoo, the cost of the pillows, the fluff of the towels.
Price is a measure of comfort and service. What must always be the same - at every price - is your security, your safety and cleanliness.
Unfortunately, it's not.
Across the US, hotels are skimping on key safety measures, and the consequences range from stolen laptops and Peeping Toms to sexual assaults and robbery at gunpoint. More than 125 property crimes are committed in US hotels and motels every day, in addition to more than 21 violent crimes (excluding murders).
What's needed is a grading system that will alert potential guests to the quality of a hotel's security, guaranteeing that A-rated facilities have measures in place to assure guests' safety and the rooms' cleanliness. In New York City, Los Angeles and other cities, restaurants are graded based on government inspections, and those grades are posted so you can see them before you walk in the door.
Hotels and motels also are entrusted with customers' health and safety, and they must be held equally accountable.
That accountability starts with basic security. For instance, many hotels fail to perform adequate background checks on job applicants before hiring them.
In September 2011, a woman staying at a Best Western hotel in Arizona woke up in the middle of the night to find a man standing over her bed. She says the man raped her. He was a registered level-3 sex offender, according to news reports, but Best Western had hired him as a night clerk and given him a master key to guest rooms, allowing him unfettered access to turn any of its female guests into his next victims.
