place to donate old statistics textbooks?
by Deb Polk 27 Apr '17

27 Apr '17

We're cleaning out at my office and have a number of old statistics textbooks. Does anyone know where we could donate them? Thanks, Deb Polk "The many, of whom none is individually an excellent man, nevertheless can, when joined together, be better than those [the excellent few], not as individuals but all together, just as potluck dinners can be better than those provided at one man's expense. For, there being many, each person possesses a constituent part of virtue and practical reason, and when they have come together, the multitude is like a single person, yet many-footed and many-handed and possessing many sense-capacities, so it is likewise as regards to its multiplicity of character and its mind. This is why the many judge better in regard to musical works and those of the poets, for some judge a particular aspect, while all of them judge the whole." Aristotle, book 3 of the Politics (1281a40-b10)

Help build a new music venue in Pittsburgh
by Heather Kropf 27 Apr '17

27 Apr '17

I'm writing to let you know about a new music venue, *The Bridge Music Hall*, that is hoping to build in the city Pittsburgh. It will be a non-profit 250-seat cabaret-style listening room in the style of The Ark in Ann Arbor or The Bluebird in Nashville. Take a moment to check it out on *GoFundMe* <https://www.gofundme.com/thebridgemusichallpgh> and also share it with your friends. Make a donation if you would like to see this project happen. If enough of us get behind it, we can begin bringing a whole crew of touring artists to Pittsburgh that's currently skipping our city, plus enhance the local scene. Currently The Bridge is booking Wallace's Taproom down in East Liberty for a free Thursday evening series, which you are welcome to attend! Thank you, Heather -- *Heather Kropf* www.heatherkropf.com

House for Rent Starting August 1
by Hilary Schenker 26 Apr '17

26 Apr '17

I'm posting this for my neighbor, Anita Swamy, who owns the home attached to mine - won't you be my neighbor? Lovely spot, lovely neighborhood. Here is her description of the house. Please contact her at anubostonchicago(a)gmail.com if you're interested! Two photos are attached. 844 Heberton Street, Pittsburgh 15206: this very well-kept home is 4 floors, 4 bedrooms (may be used as den/offices as well). Hardwood floors throughout 1st and 2nd floors, ceramic tile in the modern kitchen. All appliances included: dishwasher, disposal, refrigerator, W/D, A/C units. Basement is huge and ideal for storage, contains 1/2 bath and W/D. Entry is via front porch (with cute little swing). First floor consists of living room, large dining room, kitchen and back porch with a small backyard. The second floor consists of 3 rooms, full bathroom. The third floor consists of another large bedroom. Within blocks of highland park and the zoo, very close to Children's Hospital and Shadyside, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's. This is a home, not an apartment by any means. It is ideal for residents, fellows, graduate students, young professionals, or families. To maintain the home well, prefer to rent to maximum of 2-3 people or small family with up to 3 persons. Looking for responsible, clean, mature tenants, non-smokers, without pets. Neighbors are wonderful, helpful, and have been living there for years. Tenants would pay utilities (300/month total) and maintain yard (raking, trimming bushes, mowing lawn and remove snow) as needed. Available August 1, 2017 for $1550 per month.
