[Highland Park] Looking for a room
by James Riggins 12 Jul '12

12 Jul '12

Hello neighbors, I am posting this for a friend. 29 year old single female looking for a room to rent until the winter when I go back to school. I am quiet, non-smoking, have no pets and seek modest accommodations. Please let me know what is available or any leads you may have. Also, if anyone has baby children, I have nanny experience (and am actually going to be in school for early childhood education), so I would be glad to speak with people about helping to nanny, especially when the school year begins. Please call Kelley at (412) 277-8108. Thank you in advance.

[Highland Park] Unique music event in Highland Park
by Kelly Tobias 12 Jul '12

12 Jul '12

*The Eclectic Laboratory Chamber Orchestra performs 'Through the Looking Glass' at Union Project* *When: *July 29th at 7:00pm *Where:* Union Project- 801 N. Negley Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15206 *Tickets*: $10 in advance Union Project is pleased to welcome *Eclectic Laboratory Chamber Orchestra*<http://elco-orchestra.webs.com/> (ELCO) to the stage to present The Looking Glass on *Sunday July 29th at 7:00pm*in our Great Hall. One of Pittsburgh most versatile orchestras, ELCO makes it their mission to tear down distinctions of genre and demolish preconceived notions about music by presenting a repertoire spanning from the Middle Ages to present day, placing emphasis on classical, modern classical, and pop music. The music of The Looking Glass takes its inspiration from the Pop Art, Op Art, and Minimal Art of the late 1960s in order to explore the musical connections between Classical Minimalism, Jazz, Funk, and Contemporary Dance Pop. Throbbing, pulsating beats, hypnotic cycles of melody, and sweeping instrumental soundscapes will sweep through the Great Hall during this debut performance. Unlike the much of the modern classical music which preceded it, minimalist music often emphasizes a recognizable pulse and tonal melodies, with a clear connection to pop music and the music of various non-western traditions (Indian classical music, Indonesian gamelan, African drumming, etc.) ELCO highlights the connections of this music to pop art and the loft party culture that spawned it by presenting it alongside transcriptions of jazz, pop, and New Wave music. All proceeds from this unique performance will go to help Union Project further its mission: making space to connect, create and celebrate community.

[Highland Park] FOR SALE---- 2008 Suzuki Grand Vitara 4x4
by Robert Collins 12 Jul '12

12 Jul '12

Howdy HP'ers, Thought I would give this a whirl before I post it anywhere else. My family has entered the minivan era and we are selling our beloved and gently used SUV. I bought this Suzuki new in January of 2009, so it's been in service as they say for 3.5 years. I have all the records of everything done to the vehicle since new, oil changes, service, etc. Stats: 45,xxx miles on the ticker Gold exterior with charcoal cloth interior X sport model with moon roof, 6 CD in dash, MP3 and Sirius Satellite capabilities. 2.7 liter V6 engine,automatic transmission, alloy wheels with no curb rash (I don't live in the city remember) Car has a few scratches. Inspected until 1/13 Just serviced with new fluids, also had the transmission case flushed. The car is being professionally detailed inside and out next Wednesday, and I am waiting for the title from PENNDOT. KBB private party value is 12,500 in good condition. Now, the car will probably need 4 new tires in January for inspection, on the flip side it has a fully transferable bumper to bumper warranty good up to 100,000 miles or February of 2016. That's a nice chunk of warranty left. Obviously it doesn't buy you the tires, but it's nice peace of mind. I don't have any pictures as I am waiting for the detailing to be done. Any interest, please let me know. Thanks Rob @ Bryant Street Market 5901 Bryant Street Pittsburgh PA 15206 Phone: (412) 661 8720 Hours: Mon-Sat- 8 AM to 8 PM Sun- 9AM to 5PM

[Highland Park] Lost Scrap Metal
by Martha Riecks 12 Jul '12

12 Jul '12

Hi neighbors, We are in the process of doing some construction on our house here in Highland Park, and had a pile of scrap aluminum neatly stacked on a pallet next to our dumpster last night. We did not have the chance to cover it up last night with a tarp, as intended . . . and when we walked out this morning, we discovered that this pile of tan soffit, facia and edging scraps has vanished. On the offhand chance that someone spotted it on the pallet, became concerned we were dumping it, and then liberated it with the intention of saving it from the landfill, please rest assured we were planning on recycling it. If it has not yet made its way to the scrap yard, we'd would greatly appreciate its return. (We're all for scrapping and dumpstering in general, as it can really cut down on how much waste gets landfilled, but if it looks like the owner has plans for it - and it's NOT in the dumpster or in a trash pile - please ask first!) Thanks! Martha -- Martha Riecks mriecks(a)gmail.com
