curb alert: feather reed grass
by Laura V 09 Apr '15

09 Apr '15

Hey all, I have a lot of feather reed grass that I no longer have room for. I believe it's Karl Foerster, but since I didn't plant it I don't know for sure. Certainly it's quite pretty, and it spreads out in clumps but the seeds are sterile. http://www.garden.org/subchannels/flowers/perennials?q=show&id=1673 There's a row of freshly dug-up clumps next to the sidewalk in front of my house, 1105 Heberton. Come by and grab some if you want it! --laura

Just in time for wedding season! This beauty has been in the family for 3 generations, but feeling time to let it go to someone who has room to display it, and occasions to use it… and to allow it to continue its journey as an heirloom. Silver plated tray, tea pot, sugar and creamer all stamped on bottom "Community Plate, Chelsea." All pieces are engraved with decorative motif as shown in detail photo below. Appraised by "Creative Silver" in Squirrel Hill to be worth $1200, but looks like similar sets are going on e-bay for $400 and up (full sets only, in stellar condition). I am open to your best offer & will consider all. -Becky

Greetings, Happy Spring! I'm emailing to share some information about one of the East End Food Co-op's upcoming community events. We offer 3-5 free events each month as part of our commitment to the cooperative principles of /Education /and/Concern for Community/. Each of the events is open to the public and there is no cost to attend. We work with local community organizations and small businesses as well as community leaders to offer lectures, classes, workshops, and discussions that typically address food, health, or sustainability in some capacity. We try to offer programming that is valuable and provides information or access to local resources and networking opportunities to the people in our community. Information about our events can be found on our website at any time: http://www.eastendfood.coop/co-op/events/community-event-series Next Wednesday, we are hosting Allegheny CleanWays. We would love for you to join us! Here are the event details: _Wednesday, April 15th, 6:30 PM_ *Illegal Dumping: Pittsburgh’s Dirty Secret* /Myrna Newman, Allegheny CleanWays/ Carnegie Library of Homewood--7101 Hamilton Ave. Pittsburgh has been named the Most Livable City six times since 2000. We also pride ourselves on being one of the Greenest cities. There is another side of Pittsburgh that we don’t talk much about—the pockets of blight scattered throughout the hillsides and along our lovely rivers. Myrna Newman will discuss a particular type of blight: illegal dumping. Join us to learn about the environmental, social, economic, and health costs associated with illegal dumping and how you can help Allegheny CleanWays reverse the damage. This event is FREE; just call 412-242-3598 to reserve your spot!

missing children
by Laudia Lee 08 Apr '15

08 Apr '15

There is a poster at Rite Aid on Baum Blvd. next to Aldi's. Of two children a boy and a girl looks like an Easter portrait of them. I believe I saw the 2 missing children while riding the 1 Freeport bus going out towards Blaunox and Harmerville. As they got off between there at a row housing unit. The people they were with was a women with a baby, another small boy and her older daughter around the age 13 or 14 I assume. She had her boyfriend or husband with her. Who was her kids step-father who was wearing sunglasses on the bus. They were very loud all of them and making a big commotion on the bus. The two kids who look like the kids in the photo were not listening and acting up, the boy being very loud. They wouldn't listen to the women or mom very well. She told the boy if he was good she would let him go with them to nana's house. They had altogether 5 kids with them. The women had brown hair pointed nose. The man had his hair shaven down close to head not quite bald, had big nose not pointed or flat but oblong like. They almost got kicked off the bus , bus number was 6511. The bus driver was getting ready to call cops on them because the guy joked around saying he shouldn't pay or won't because of holiday. It was a Sunday, or Easter Sunday the 5th around 1:00 to 2:00 pm when I saw them. person looking should email me at lee_laudia(a)yahoo.com
