Look
for our next eMain Neighborhood update on July 18, 2001.
The June 27,
2001 meeting was cancelled. Our next report will cover topics discussed
in our July 11, 2001, eMain team meeting.
In
the 1940s, '50s and early '60s, South Fourth Street was among the
places to go in downtown Louisville, a lively strip jammed with
theaters, stores, restaurants and people. Louisville officials are
focusing on ways to reclaim a bit of South Fourth's heyday, especially
as an entertainment district. Mayor Dave Armstrong has committed
$500,000 in his new budget -- to be matched with $1 million in private
money -- for a low-interest loan pool to spur development of entertainment
enterprises in the two blocks between Muhammad Ali Boulevard and
Broadway.

Louisville
revels in 'livability' honor
The
U.S. Conference of Mayors named Louisville one of five finalists
for an award for ''city livability'' in cities with at least 100,000
people. Mayor Armstrong said planned downtown housing such as Waterfront
Park Place and The Glassworks impressed the judges. He also said
the continued development of the eMain USA corridor and the medical
center are significant. And proposed entertainment and retail makeovers
to the Galleria and Fourth Street showed the city's commitment to
a vibrant downtown.

temporary sculpture, 20 feet tall and made of fabricated wood, will

Bristol closing at arts center;
new cafe coming
The
Bristol Bar & Grille restaurant at the Kentucky Center for the
Arts is closing after more than 17 years, and will be replaced in
the fall by a restaurant run by Zephyr Cove's management. The center
wants a restaurant that will attract people even when there is not
an event at the arts center because the restaurant offers something
''that isn't available anywhere else.''

Collie
King started MyCareerNetwork two years ago to help solve a problem:
how to keep Kentucky's best and brightest young college graduates
from fleeing the state -- and how to reel back those who had left.
So King, a Louisville native who worked elsewhere before returning
in 1993, set about building an Internet jobs board with a difference:
online want ads from Kentucky and Southern Indiana companies seeking
to attract jobseekers with local roots -- and vice versa.
City
helps groups with Web pages
One
day soon, Louisville residents will be able to find out what's happening
in any of the city's neighborhoods by surfing the Web. The city's
Department of Neighborhoods is joining Neighborhood Link, an Internet-based
network that will give neighborhood associations and non-profit
organizations a chance to create their own free, interactive Web
site.

Soon,
you’ll
be able to recall sent e-mails
Ever
fire off an e-mail then wish you hadn't? New software may be able
to help prevent that. Several companies are now selling programs
and services that allow users to control how long e-mail messages
remain on the recipient's desktop and ensure that they can't be
forwarded, printed or copied without the sender's authorization.
Some of these security programs allow the sender to retrieve messages
after they've been sent.
