Hi there. Our mysterious leak in the walls of our upstairs bathroom (and down to our dining room ceiling) has returned. Would very much appreciate my neighbor's suggestions for skilled, honest and reliable plumbers. Thank you. Best- Becky

Computer Repair Services
by Joseph Turner 20 Apr '15

20 Apr '15

Computer repair services at a discount rate. My rates are usually half of what most placed such as Best Buy will charge you for the same service, and I will travel to you for the repairs. Typically I do not charge a travel fee either. I have over 10 years of experience in the IT industry, I'm up front with you about your systems issues, I try not to use "computer jargon", and I will always do my best to keep the costs as low as possible, I also offer the below services at a set cost. For more time consuming repairs, I'm also willing to take it back to my home and work on it there, then bring it back to you when the work is complete (Typically the next day). Install new hardware - $25 for the first piece + $5 for each additional piece Install new software - $25 for up to 3 pieces of software Routine maintenance - $35 for defragmentation, disk cleanup, and system scan Clean a virus or spyware (When possible)- $50 Backup system (Must have a backup medium available)- $25 System Refresh - $125 for system format, Operating System reinstall, and hardware driver reinstall. $25 more for reinstall of printers, scanners, or other external hardware Hourly Rate for other services is typically $65 an hour.

Lost dog
by Emily Nicholson 20 Apr '15

20 Apr '15

At noon on Monday, I spotted a loose dog at the corner of Jackson and Negley. The dog was brindle color and looked like a cross between a pit bull and a cattle dog. Pointed ears and medium size. It had a collar and tags. I tried to approach it, but it got scared and ran away behind the apartment building on that corner. This is 3 doors down from the Union Project. I would have gone after it but I had my baby with me. Sent from my iPhone
