"Gal Friday" Available
by Susan Richter 07 Jan '15

07 Jan '15

I am a 58-year-old woman with a lot of energy and a great deal of passion, and I am looking for new sources of income. I have cared for: elders, children, pets and houses, and am adaptable to any category that comes to me. I am a fantastic listener, a kindhearted soul and a hard worker, who incorporates a good attitude in everything I do. I am very good at organizing and de-cluttering, as well, and many of my clients count on that ability to help them get better control over their surroundings. I would make a great personal assistant, and am very *open to a live-in situation*, but would prefer staying in the East End. I worked at the East End Food Coop for 9 years and have a vested interest in good health; I am a pretty good cook and can easily follow a recipe to a positive end. Originally from New York (in and around the city), I have a background in music and dance and love becoming theatrical and dramatic when children (or children at heart) are around. It depends on the mood of the client(s), of course, so rest assured that I am also capable of being contemplative and quiet. I also love to read to children, especially Dr. Seuss, where I have been known to get a little over-excited(!) I love having fun, and people seem to open up really well to me. I have been told that I am very pleasant to work with. I have a Biology degree and a teaching certificate (K-8) from Chatham University. I love all things natural, and have been on a life-long mission to help turn things around on this planet. If this sounds like the right blend of background to suit your need(s), let us meet in a timely fashion and get on with this next adventure. I have references, and would be happy to share them with you. Best wishes, Susan Richter 412-736-7295 soozinrichter(a)gmail.com

CASE STUDY: Rivers of Steel Heritage Organization
by Green Light Wireless 07 Jan '15

07 Jan '15

The Rivers of Steel Heritage organization has a unique IT challenge that Green Light Wireless creatively solves wirelessly! View this email in your browser (http://us7.campaign-archive1.com/?u=793a8b0fd186c772518669bde&id=18353d5f29…) http://greenwifi.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=793a8b0fd186c772518669bd… ** CASE STUDY: RIVERS OF STEEL ------------------------------------------------------------ ** ------------------------------------------------------------ ** Green Light Wireless installs a wide-area computer network giving Wi-Fi access to staff and guests at ROS facilities. ------------------------------------------------------------ http://greenwifi.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=793a8b0fd186c772518669bd… http://greenwifi.us7.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=793a8b0fd186c772518669b… by Congress in 1996, the Rivers of Steel National Heritage Area is committed to preserving, interpreting, and managing the historic, cultural, and natural resources related to Big Steel and its related industries. Encompassing over 5,000 square miles in the eight counties of Allegheny, Armstrong, Beaver, Butler, Greene, Fayette, Washington, and Westmoreland, Rivers of Steel is building on this area’s remarkable transition from heavy industry to high technology and diversified services as well as bolstering the new regional economy by promoting tourism and economic development based on this region’s historic industrial saga. http://greenwifi.us7.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=793a8b0fd186c772518669b… Problem: The Rivers of Steel organization, headquartered in the Bost Building in Homestead, wanted access to their network while on site at the Carrie Furnace (Rankin) and the Pump House (The Waterfront). Basic Internet service would provide an answer to their administrative network needs, reliable access to the Internet for events on site, and a backbone for increased security monitoring. Because many of their remote sites are “off the grid,” setting up a traditional Internet connection would have been costly and inconvenient for the non-profit organization. http://greenwifi.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=793a8b0fd186c772518669bd… Solution: Green Light Wireless installed private Point to Multi-Point (P2MP) wireless network infrastructure that links each of the facilities to the Bost Building’s administrative computer network. All three sites now share connectivity through the Bost Building’s administrative network, allowing for the use of printers, servers, and file sharing between the three sites and remote security monitoring. Without adding additional Internet connectivity, Rivers of Steel needed to provide network access to the remote sites so that staff can access network servers and email, process payments for tours, and manage security from any of the three connected buildings. The Point to Multi-Point wireless network infrastructure would have to carry the encrypted network connection across the Monongahela River, avoiding interferences from the buildings and bridges that stand between the two, without losing signal quality or reliability. Green Light Wireless installed the P2MP on the rooftop of the Bost building to beam the signal to the Carrie Furnaces and then back across the river to the Pump House, using equipment that requires very little electricity, as the sites are limited to solar-power. According to Jeffrey T. Leber, Vice President and COO of Rivers of Steel, the service has functioned exactly as intended. It is reliable throughout the Carrie Furnaces space, a tricky feat given the many “nooks and crannies” where the signal could become weak. The staff use network services regularly for back-office type needs and accessing administrative information remotely. The service has also streamlined the processes for tour staff, as they used to depend on potentially unreliable “hot spots” purchased from their ISP for admission and gift shop purchases at the sites. Most importantly, it has been useful from a security standpoint. The sites are appealing to intrepid explorers, modern day ruins in an urban setting. But, because the Carrie Furnaces have been left to the elements for so long, the site can be dangerous. Rivers of Steel wants to keep people from exploring the site until renovations can make it accessible for tours. There are security cameras at both sites and the footage is streamed back to the organization so that they can check in any time. Leber says, “It’s peace of mind that at any point in time we can look in and see what’s going on, whether it’s Sunday morning at 7 am or Wednesday evening at midnight.” Click here to read the full article about this project.

Mink Coat, Burberry trench coat and a Russian cold war era military long coat
by Jacqueline Walker 07 Jan '15

07 Jan '15

I'm considering selling my dark brown short mink coat size small. It's in perfect condition and much more stylish than most I've seen. I've only ever worn it to the opera. I've seen this particular style selling on craigslist for about 400 dollars. I would consider OBO, but I'm wondering if their is any interest in Highland Park before putting it on craigslist. Message me if you are interested and would like a picture. I also have a long Burberry trench coat. There are two small spots that could likely be cleaned by a professional. The style is older, but it's like wearing a wool blanket, VERY warm. The insert is removable and has a removable collar as well. My husband has an antique cold war era military long coat complete with original buttons which we are also considering letting go. Let me know if there is any interest! out there!
