[Highland Park] Juicer, anyone?
by C.Heather Kropf 07 Dec '10

07 Dec '10

Dear Neighbors, Before I go out shopping I thought I'd ask if anyone had a robust juicer that's gathering dust in a back corner of their kitchen cabinet, and would be willing it loan it to me for 1-2 months while I do a health-related detox (environmental illness)? I know it's a totally random question, but it can't hurt to ask. Quality juicers appear to be pricey and I don't really need one for very long. I'd be happy to barter, if required. Thanks, and happy holidays! Heather

Dear Highland Park Neighbors, I've been involved with the Nine Mile Run Watershed Association for over 6 years, and am currently serving on the Board of Directors. Nine Mile Run is the longest un-culverted stream in the City of Pittsburgh, flowing through Frick Park, and is known for being the largest urban stream restoration project ever undertaken in the US. Our organization is developing a new mission-oriented business venture, and would greatly appreciate your help as we conduct market research and perform an analysis. *It would be a huge help if you would take five minutes and just complete a brief survey for us. No prior knowledge of Nine Mile Run or the NMRWA is necessary!* And, if you'd like, you can enter to win a free rain garden or rain barrel after completing the survey! To take the survey, just follow this link - http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/NMRWA Thank you very much for you help! * * Martha Riecks -- ------------------------------------------------- Martha Riecks - mriecks(a)gmail.com

[Highland Park] knitting pattern request
by Joan Soulliere 07 Dec '10

Dear Neighbors, Does anyone have the *Noro: Knits* pattern book by Jane Ellison? There's a model wearing a reddish cardigan on the cover. I'm looking for a hat pattern in that book. I located the pattern on Ravelry but it's not free. F.Y.I. If anyone is ever looking for a pattern I have a LOT of books and binders of patterns I've downloaded. Happy to share. Thank you, Joan Soulliere Farragut St.

[Highland Park] FOR SALE -- Flip Video Camcorder, Ukulele, + Holga Camera [Photo's Included]
by Meg Drew 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

Hello neighbors -- Here's a description of what I'm selling {attached are photos} . . . 1. Flip Video Camcorder -- Model F260W, White -- Asking $100 OBO Great little tool. Comes in very hardy for everyday use because of it's small size WHILE ALSO having great quality. I really only used it for conducting interviews. Comes with a case. 2. Ukulele -- asking $70 OBO I don't know the maker of this ukulele but I bought it brand new just this past summer + only used it a few times because I'm lame. But you aren't! It's in perfect condition. It's a great instrument + is great looking. I just haven't taken the time to learn yet. 3. Holga 120N, Gold -- Asking $30 OBO Very cool "toy" camera. It's having a huge comeback. Because it's made with plastic, it lets light in which produces as very unexpected, unpredictable effect to the picture. It's great from what I've seen but I haven't actually used the one that I bought. I haven't even put film in it! It was bought new + never used. Comes with the box + instructions. All of these would make GREAT Christmas gifts. If you want additional photos or to come look at them or try any of them out just send me an e-mail. Thanks, Megan Drew N. Highland

[Highland Park] Found: girl's prescription glasses on Jackson St.
by Joan Soulliere 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

Hello Neighbors, I found a pair of girl's prescription eyeglasses on Jackson St. on Sunday night while walking my dog. The glasses are in a cloth pencil bag with several pens. I found them around the bend heading toward the park on the left side of the street. They have purple/pink frames with flowers cut into the frame - very cute. Please let me know if they are yours. I'll hold onto them for a while and then bring them to the Lions for donation if not claimed. Joan Soulliere Farragut Street
