[Highland Park] Stolen pink toddler bike
by Heather Conrad 31 Jan '12

31 Jan '12

Hello, Today someone stole my 3 year old daughter's bright pink balance bike (no pedals) this afternoon out of the front yard at Heths and Wellesley. She had an emergency and we ran inside for 5 minutes while her young friend was still out with the bike and some older kids (we believe) took it off of the yard while we cleaned up inside. I hated to do it, because I am sure it is young kids who took it, but I did call the police (who have not yet called back to file the report). If you happen to be walking in the area and see a fairly uniquely colored pink tiny bike with no pedals, please give me a call. 412.606.9263. On the other hand, if you know who took it, we would be happy if it just appeared again on our porch at 1018 Heths Avenue, no questions asked. Peace, Heather

[Highland Park] lost dogs
by Kevin Kralik 31 Jan '12

31 Jan '12

Just saw three loose dogs run by in the alley behind my house on stanton near chislett. One brown pit mix (name tyson on collar), gray brindle pit mix with green (or blue) collar, and smaller gray dog. I tried to grab the brown one but he twisted out of his collar and ran...so I have it. They were headed toward negley, called the vet # on the collar to hopefully let the owners know. If anyone knows who they belong to please let them know! Kevin 215-805-7082

[Highland Park] Local Business Valentine's Day!
by Nora Mathews 31 Jan '12

31 Jan '12

To my Highland Park Neighbors: My name is Nora Mathews, and I'm a licensed massage therapist working at Evolve Wellness Spa on South Highland Ave. If you haven't visited us yet, you might be interested to know that we are a small, local business that specializes in wellness services from Acupuncture to CBT Therapy to Therapeutic Massage— while also providing traditional day spa treats like facials, waxing, and nail services. For Valentine's Day this year, I'm offering a new service that I thought I'd put out to the list serv— a massage instruction session for couples. It's a unique and fun way to celebrate Valentine's Day or a special anniversary with your partner, and has benefits that will last long after February has come and gone! Massage is a powerful tool that can strengthen your relationship, enhance communication and enrich your love life. In the instruction session for couples, you and your partner will learn techniques used by professionals to soothe aching muscles, lift low moods and awaken the senses. Each partner will receive a 45 minute instruction and massage from a trained and licensed massage therapist, and you can choose to focus on techniques that help your particular problem areas. Whether you work at a computer or on a construction site, I have a grab bag of techniques that will help you recover from your everyday stresses! The 100 minute session is a steal at $110, especially considering that you'll bring home professional massage therapy techniques that you can use with your partner for years to come. You'll also be supporting a local business— the owners of the spa are great bosses and very cool women, and all my coworkers are talented, wonderful folks. I was trained at the Cortiva Institute for Therapeutic Massage in Boston, MA and have experience in Swedish, Myofascial, Sports and Neuromuscular, Trigger Point, Pregnancy and Hydrotherapy massage modalities. You can reach our spa at 412-441-0860, or visit our website at http://www.evolvewellnessspa.com. We're also located at 228 South Highland Ave in Shadyside if you'd like to pay us a visit in person! Best wishes and thanks for reading, Nora -- Nora Mathews E.A.Mathews(a)Gmail.com
