Hi Everyone, I got 13 recommendations for carpet cleaners. K&K - 1 vote. Murray Ave carpet store - 2 votes. North Side Carpet on Constance street on the Northside - 10 votes. The recommendations for North Side ran from glowing to rave, so that's where we'll take them, and I'll report back on my experience with them. Thank you to everyone who weighed in. The Highland Park list serve is the best! Pete McQuillin

09 Jan '12

Tai Chi Monday at St. Andrew’s Tai Chi, practiced by men and women of all ages, is an ancient Chinese system of exercise with slow and gentle motion that raises and balances the energy of the body leading to improved health and vitality. In addition Tai Chi can be a Martial Art or system of self-defense and a meditation in motion. For several years we have had a Tai Chi class at St Andrew’s on Monday nights. Our instructor, Highland Park resident Judy Crow, trained in the Yang Style Long Form with Y.K. Chou and has been teaching Tai Chi for over twenty-seven years in the Pittsburgh area. If you are interested in Tai Chi this would be a great time to start. This ten-week course begins on Monday, September 12th and runs from 6:30 – 8 PM. From 6:30 to 7 PM Judy will review the Introduction and Basics. Then, from 7 to 8 PM she will go through the Chi Exercises and the Yang Style Long Form for all levels. The fee for each 10-week course is $55.00 per person. These 1 ½ hour sessions are held in Brooks Hall at St. Andrews. To register for classes or for more information, please call Judy at 412-363-2748.

[Highland Park] Nordic Track Treadmill
by Denise 08 Jan '12

08 Jan '12

I purchased this treadmill approximately one year ago, while recovering from back surgery. I did extensive research and this model was highly recommended. I did enjoy using it but we are expecting another grandchild and I need the space for a crib. It is like new and also includes "i-fit live" software. I paid $800 + $100 for the i-fit live package. If you can pick it up and transport it, it's yours for $500 or best offer. If you'd like to come have a look please email or call the number below. Thanks! -- Denise Lohr, Owner PetSitPgh, LLC www.petsitpgh.com 412-956-0787
