[Highland Park] Quantum Theatre in East Liberty
by Stevie Herendeen 21 Jun '13

21 Jun '13

Quantum Theatre's newest production, Mnemonic, will run July 5-28 at the Kirkwood Building in East Liberty. *MNEMONIC* *Devised by Complicite; Directed by Karla Boos* Mnemonic / ni’monik / adj. 1. assisting or intended to assist memory 2. of memory In 1991 tourists descending a peak in the Alps discover a shriveled, naked body emerging from the ice. How old is it? A man alone in his apartment searches for clues to explain the disappearance of his girlfriend. Place and memory collide while stories older than the millennium connect us to each other and to those who came before. Mnemonic, with its ground-breaking performance and production styles, constantly breaks apart and reforms itself, much like memory itself. The play examines our understanding of time, our capacity to interpret history, and our attempts to retell the past. STARRING Malcolm Tulip, Carolina Loyola-Garcia, Anand Nagraj, Ken Bolden, Patrick Jordan, Katya Stepanov, and Antonio Marziale. DESIGN BY Joe Seamans, Joe Pino, C. Todd Brown, Tony Ferrieri, and Albulena Borovci.

[Highland Park] Highland Park mystified by 'ritualistic' offering of food surrounding a tree
by Linda Vicaro 21 Jun '13

21 Jun '13

I got a lot of responses from others who are curious about the plated food at the park. Someone at the Pittsburgh Tribune Review found it interesting as well and there's an article in today's paper. This article offers no answers at all, but it's amusing nonetheless. http://triblive.com/news/allegheny/4231328-74/plates-park-tree#axzz2WmBDQNz0 Linda --- Linda Vicaro linda.vicaro(a)gmail.com

by Ian Luke Kane 21 Jun '13

21 Jun '13

I'm selling my Kindle Keyboard, Wi-Fi, 6" E Ink Display with the Kindle Lighted Leather Cover, Black. They are both in nearly perfect condition. The Kindle Keyboard can generally be found used for $50 and the lighted cover is still for sale new at $60. I'm looking to get $40 for the package, obviously including the charger and cable as well. Also, this Kindle is NOT one with the "special offers", so you don't have to worry about that annoyance. Ian Luke Kane ianlukekane(a)gmail.com www.logicnest.com
