[Highland Park] Cash box and standard easel needed for The Moth - Pittsburgh
by kelly flanagan dee 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

Hi Neighbors, I am the Producer for The Moth in Pittsburgh and we are looking for a few supplies for our monthly StorySLAM events. I thought I would put the call out to the listserv. One is a standard, sturdy floor easel (not kid sized). It doesn't have to be a fancy artist one, just something we can rely on not falling over. The other is a cash box, preferably with different bill separators and the ability to lock it. If you have either of these that you'd be willing to donate to a great non-profit, please let me know! Thanks! Kelly

[Highland Park] Pennsylvania’s New Bike Safety Law to Takes Effect Today (April 2)
by Keebler, Emily 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

New state regulations to protect bicyclists went into effect this morning. Please see the attached press release, copied below, for information on the new regulations for motorists to follow when encountering a bicyclist. *Emily Keebler **· Office of Patrick Dowd · Pittsburgh City Council District 7* *510 City-County Building · 414 Grant Street · Pittsburgh PA 15219 · 412 255 2140* *emily.keebler(a)pittsburghpa.gov <emily.keebler(a)city.pittsburgh.pa.us> · www.city.pittsburgh.pa.us/district7* *Pennsylvania’s New Bike Safety Law to Take Effect April 2* Harrisburg – A law that sets new rules for Pennsylvania motorists to follow when encountering a bicyclist will take effect at 12:01 a.m. on Monday, April 2. The law, designed to improve safety and traffic flow, was signed by Governor Tom Corbett on Feb. 2. The new law requires motorists to leave a 4-foot “cushion of safety” when passing a bicyclist. To achieve this cushion, drivers may cross a roadway’s center line when passing a bicycle on the left, but only when opposing traffic allows. Drivers attempting to turn left must also yield the right of way to bicycle riders traveling in the opposite direction. “The differential in speed is the biggest safety challenge with motor vehicles and bicycles sharing our state’s roadways,” said PennDOT Secretary Barry J. Schoch. “I urge all drivers and cyclists to learn the rules of the road to better share our highways and make travel safer for all.” The new law also calls for bicycle riders to use all reasonable efforts to avoid impeding the normal flow of traffic. When there is only one travel lane, bicyclists may use any portion of the lane to avoid hazards on the roadway, including maintaining a safe distance from stopped and parked cars. As always, bicyclists and motorists should obey all traffic signs and signals. PennDOT also recommends bicyclists always ride predictably and signal their intentions before proceeding so that motorists have a chance to react.

I have range that I purchased from Don's Appliance and something is wrong with the oven function. They are entirely too pricey for a simple visit and I was wondering if anyone could recommend someone local, reliable and reasonable. Thank You!
