[Highland Park] personal training
by eddiebeddie＠aol.com 26 Apr '11

26 Apr '11

I joined Urban Active a couple of months ago and while I really like the gym, I was stunned by the cost of a personal trainer and also by the fact that I would have to 'hire' one for a YEAR. When I asked about a shorter term, (3 to 6 months), I was told that it had to be for a year. I have found that there is a LOT more to weight loss, resistance training, cardio, and free weights and machines than I ever knew. Anyone have experience with trainers and if so, what did you think? Was it helpful? I know what I want in terms of strength training and toning, but am concerned that there is a lot of room for error since there is so much to learn. Thanks a lot for your help, Kate

[Highland Park] Urgent: Two Alaskan Huskies In Need of Homes
by Elizabeth Williamson 26 Apr '11

26 Apr '11

Dear Neighbors: If you are experienced with the Northern Breed Group and are seeking to adopt or even foster, please read this email! There are two Alaskan Huskies currently at the Animal Rescue League on Hamilton Ave in desperate need of homes. If these two are not adopted or taken into foster homes soon, they may be put down by Friday. Slice and Niche are from the same litter and are not even one year old. We have been to visit them twice and have even introduced them to our two Siberian Huskies. All four dogs got along very well and played vigorously! Both Slice and Niche (female and male) are incredibly sweet and extremely beautiful. They are a Malamute-Siberian Husky mix. Unfortunately, the breeder could not find proper homes for the entire litter, so four of the puppies were brought to the ARL. So far, two of the four have been adopted and are adjusting well to their homes. Slice and Niche still need to find homes as soon as possible! Please call the Animal Rescue League at (412) 661-6452 if you are interested in fostering or adopting these dogs. You may ask to speak with Lacey; she is the Adoptions Coordinator and is very familiar with these dogs and their situation. I will send another email with pictures as soon as I can. Thank you. Best regards, Elizabeth Williamson

My 6-year old daughter had her Razor, red-handled scooter stolen off of our porch yesterday. A child's green BMX bike with a flat tire was left on our lawn in its place. Here is what my daughter has to say about this: "I feel really sad. Please return it any time you can." If you know of the scooter's whereabouts, please return it to our porch: 1100 Portland Street. No questions asked. Thank you, Marijke & Anya

Hello Neighbors, I'm curious as to whether anyone in our fine neighborhood may have a banjo or other instruments of intrigue they may be willing to pass on to a new home, for a fair and reasonable price. I'm interested in picking up a new instrument for the summer! Erica
