[Highland Park] Screws in Vehicle Tires
by Brad Reese 13 Sep '12

13 Sep '12

Has anyone else in HP experienced screws or nails in your tires over the past several weeks? We've had 3 incidents on 2 different cars at our Farragut St location within a couple of weeks of one another. Just trying to figure out if there is a pattern anywhere. And today I read this article from the Trib: Pittsburgh police are investigating a rash of vandalism to officers’ vehicles around the Zone 4 station in Squirrel Hill. Police said there have been about 24 personal and official vehicles targeted since December along Northumberland Street and the side streets around the station. The suspect or suspects is spiking tires with screws or nails, police said. Detectives from the station are investigating.

by InfoTangles 13 Sep '12

13 Sep '12

Dear Neighbors, I'll be offering another "Spreadsheets for Beginners Class" right in East Liberty at the Green House next week on Thursday, 9/20/12, at 6pm-8pm. The cost of the class is $20. I'd love to help you build up your skills-- we can pretty easily tailor each class to the needs of those attending, but I've included some general class info below. I also offer private tutoring and consulting if that suits your style a little better. If you are interested in attending a more intermediate/advanced class, let me know directly at mark(a)infotangles.com. I'm looking to gauge interest before I offer that class-- but it may happen soon if there are enough requests. Hope to see you there! Best, Mark Dixon ***Spreadsheets for Beginners Class*** Need to use a spreadsheet but don't know where to begin? Scared you might "mess up" some data? Want to efficiently organize your contacts, mailing lists, finances, or other important information? Our class, Spreadsheets for Beginners, can help. We'll introduce the basics of spreadsheet use, including design, navigation, simple formulas, graphs, and error checking-- not to mention lots of tips and tricks. The instructor, Mark Dixon, is a graduate of Stanford University who literally *thinks* in spreadsheets and loves to make the topic fun-- and he's a happy Highland Park resident. Each stand-alone class is $20, and attendees should bring their own laptops. (Laptops may be rented for $5 per class if requested in advance.) The class will be held at the Pittsburgh Green House: 308 N Sheridan Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15206 (right next to Home Depot). You can register and pay at http://www.InfoTangles.com, or contact mark(a)infotangles.com for more information. --- Mark Dixon 412-204-6098 (cell) http://www.InfoTangles.com <http://www.infotangles.com/>
