[Highland Park] Serial Rock Throwers
by Carla Rae 13 May '13

13 May '13

Good Evening Neighbors, Just wanted to share information about an incident that happened with me on Saturday so that others can be aware and very careful. I was driving down East Liberty Blvd on Saturday evening (coming towards Highland Park). I went through the stoplight at the Larimer intersection and before I could reach the stoplight at the Collins intersection and young boy (he had to be between 10-12 years old) threw a medium sized rock at my windshield with great force. I was unable to stop due to the traffic behind me but I did circle back around. Of course, by that point he was gone. Luckily the damage was minimal, only a few scrapes, which Safelite assured me wouldnt turn into cracks. I called the police to file a report and was surprised to hear the 911 operator say that she had experienced the exact same thing in the exact same place as me. She sent some cops out to patrol the area but I dont think anything came of it. Later that night I learned that a woman that I know had experienced the same thing as the 911 operator and me and like my situation (and im assuming the 911 operator's) nobody had been arrested or held accountable. Im sharing this story because I want everyone to be vigilant. There is a serial rock thrower wreaking havoc on East Liberty Blvd. Riding in my car with me at the time was my one year old neice and my pregnant sister in law. This situation could have ended a lot worse. Im thankful that it didnt. Be careful and be vigilant on the road, especially on East Liberty Blvd. -Carla J.

[Highland Park] votePGH
by Lindsay Patross 13 May '13

13 May '13

My name is Lindsay Patross, I write the blog IheartPGH and I am working on a new project, votePGH <http://votepgh.org/> (http://www.votepgh.org) to make sure that Pittsburghers know that Tuesday, May 21 is election day. I'm writing to ask if you will help me to spread the word about *votePGH.org *. votePGH is a website that I have set up to engage more of Pittsburgh in the upcoming election on Tuesday, May 21. I've set a goal of getting 1000 Pittsburghers to sign the pledge and I want to make sure we have at least 1 pledge from every city neighborhood. We've had a few folks from Highland Park pledge but we need alot more to reach the 1000 pledge goal. Please visit http://votepgh.org/ and pledge to vote on Tuesday May 21, 2013. The NonProfit Vote organization has done some research that shows that people who are contacted about voting before election day are more likely to vote and to encourage friends and colleagues to vote on election day. You can read more about their research here - http://votepgh.org/why-a-votepgh-pledge/ Anything you can do to help spread the word about votePGH would be much appreciated. Lindsay Lindsay Patross PS - You can also follow *@votePGH <https://twitter.com/votepgh>* on Twitter and like *votePGH on Facebook*<https://www.facebook.com/pages/VotePGH/162642693781552?fref=ts> .

Hi, I'm also trying to get rid of a floor lamp. It's brass with a glass shelf. See photo. It works fine and has no blemishes I can detect. It just doesn't fit into my newly decorated living room anymore. The lamp is on my porch at 1121 N. Euclid Ave. No need to email. Just come and pick it up if you are interested. I will send out another email when it's gone. Christine
