[Highland Park] Request for Soda Pop Cans
by Alicia Donner 02 Mar '11

02 Mar '11

Greetings Highland Park! I am working on a long term art project involving creating things with soda pop cans. As of now I am expanding beyond my supply of cans and was wondering if anyone could help me out (I'm currently very much in need of regular Pepsi cans if anyone has any of those). I'm willing to pick them up or they can be dropped off on our porch (see address below) just let me know if you are doing that. Thanks! Peace, Alicia -- Alicia M. R. Donner *PULSE* 5615 Stanton Ave Pittsburgh, PA 15206 *http://pulsepittsburgh.org/*

Hi, I sent a couple of links of a cabinet I'm selling yesterday. The images are hosted in Image Shack, which is a safe site. One neighbour told me the links has viruses, no one else has reported this and I am unable to find anything malicious in the site or the links. I am just letting you know what I was told just in case. Best, Constanza.-

[Highland Park] Grad student seeking short-term lease/sublet of studio or 1-bedroom in East End
by Matthew Diersen 02 Mar '11

02 Mar '11

My firm in East Liberty (Moss Architects) has hired a Spring term co-op graduate student (intern) from my alma mater, the University of Cincinnati, and I thought I might turn to the listserv and see if anyone is aware of an appropriate small apartment available short-term, either in Highland Park or elsewhere in the east end convenient to East Liberty. He is looking for a place from March 19th through June 12th. Having gone through this same process myself as a student, I am sure that affordability is desired, and that furniture, while not required, may be a plus. Thanks in advance for your help, I will pass along all replies to him directly. Matt Diersen
