Free computer monitor -NEC LCD 17" 5:4 ratio
by susan zelicoff 09 Jul '23

09 Jul '23

I have an older 17 inch, off-white-colored monitor that has only SGVA/VGA connection port (no HDMI), but you can buy an adapter to connect from that to HDMI cables if you need. Brand: NEC Model: Multisynch LCD 1700V 1280 x 1024 40 ms 16.7 Million Colors (24-bit) 250 Nit SXGA – VGA port Aspect ratio - 5:4 (not a widescreen like many newer monitors) Color - off-white incl power cord (black) and connection cable for the SXGA-VGA port. (I don’t know enough about cables to say whether the cable is SXGA, VGA or both) No manual but you can find that and other info easily online, including NEC's software if you want greater control of what's displayed. Location is between Oakland and Shadyside. I believe it last worked fine, but hasn’t been used for several years.

another unprovoked dog attack this morning
by Joy 08 Jul '23

08 Jul '23

i was at the dog park in highland park at about 9 this morning and my dog was attacked by the same dog that attacked him before, a few months ago. like the other time, we had just entered; my dog was peacefully standing by the gate. i foolishly thought the other time was just random. there were many other dogs there and no bad atmosphere, all seemed ok, so i chanced it. the dog is male, a yellow lab, bigger than mine, around 80 lbs. it came flying at us, snarling, and slammed my doodle against the fence, biting his neck. my dog was terrified. as was i. the attacking dog was so large and powerful and the attack so vicious i was afraid to use my arms to pull him off. i feel lucky i got ruben out of there without blood. the owner did nothing. did not come over. either time. no response, no apology. i don't get it. i thought we had a generally responsible atmosphere at our dog park. if my dog attacked another dog, unprovoked, aggressively, i'd come and leash him instantly, make sure the dog victim and its person were okay, apologize, and take my dog out of the park, or at least offer to. do we have a posted policy? shouldn't there be a policy that if a dog attacks in this way, it has to leave? joy -- OneLarge.org

Selling our 2006 Honda Civic. Car is in excellent shape and still runs very well, but we got a new car. 85k miles, just had $1500 worth of work (including new tires and new fluids) end of last year. A/C and power windows work well, and it has an aux-in jack. We're the second owners and have never had any problems, it always passes inspection. There are still a ton of these cars on the road because they run forever! Available to show in East Liberty, Carfax report and photos upon request.
