[Highland Park] The Media and Your Child: April 19
by brennerbrown＠optonline.net 30 Mar '10

30 Mar '10

The Media and Your Child April 19, 6:30 pm Waldorf School of Pittsburgh Today's children are growing up in a society where the prevalence of televisions, videos, and computers is an accepted part of life. Yet researchers have found children's television watching to be linked to such health concerns as higher rates of obesity and higher blood pressure. To kickoff TV Turnoff Week, the Waldorf School of Pittsburgh welcomes Lydia Roberson to explore this topic in greater depth and discuss alternatives for families who would like to reduce their viewing time. Begun in 1994, TV Turnoff Week encourages all people to use electronic screened media responsibly and then have more time for a healthier life and more community participation. The Waldorf School of Pittsburgh is located at: 201 S. Winebiddle St. Pittsburgh, PA 15224 (412) 441-5792 http://www.waldorfpittsburgh.org

[Highland Park] Volunteer Opportunity -- Off the Floor Pittsburgh
by Alfred Mann 30 Mar '10

30 Mar '10

Off the Floor Pittsburgh A number of Highland Park volunteers participate in a unique nonprofit organization known as Off the Floor Pittsburgh. Established in 2004, this group has transformed the lives of needy families in the poorest areas of Pittsburgh who literally were eating and sleeping on the floor. Through the efforts of numerous people, these families now have basic needs such as beds, bedding, tables and chairs. Our first turn of the Spring season to do a pickup and delivery is Saturday morning, April 10. Now is a good time to join this volunteer team. Please contact me at 412-661-5947, alfred.mann(a)verizon.net. Al Mann

[Highland Park] HOUND MIX FOR ADOPTION
by Difranza, Francine 30 Mar '10

30 Mar '10

. Hello Animal People, Rosa certainly melted a lot of hearts while she was having her glamour photos taken. It's easy to imagine snuggling up with this sweet girl in front of a nice fireplace. This mellow, well behaved and house trained, 8 year old was an owner turn in at an animal facility that has a limited holding time. Animal Advocates wants to offer Rosa the time she needs to find just the right place for the rest of her life. Rosa is a beautiful medium size hound mix, possibly a basset-beagle combination, who is extremely loving and gentle. She is obviously striking with her pretty markings and charming speckles and she has break-your-heart beautiful, soulful hound eyes. Rosa wants to be everybody's best friend, but what she really needs is one true best friend. Could that friend be you? Please email muttsrus(a)hotmail.com <mailto:muttsrus@hotmail.com> or call (412) 928-8931 or (412)928-9777 if you'd like to offer Rosa a foster or forever home. As always, thanks for your time and attention. Patty Animal Advocates

[Highland Park] free stuff
by Gregory Smith 29 Mar '10

29 Mar '10

After moving, we're left with some furniture and other stuff we don't need. Free, but you have to haul it. Stuff: A dusty bookshelf, with doors on the bottom and a hole for stereo wires or something (photo) A chest of drawers (photo) An Ikea desk with hutch, drawer cart, and CPU cart. Numerous liquid stains, maybe you can clean it or marble it or something (photo) An Epson CX6600 all in one printer. Worked when I disconnected it a long time ago, probably needs ink and heads cleaned, and a USB cable. No photo. Dining room table, about three feet by four feet, mostly sturdy, decent wood top but has some marks on it. No photo. Wheel and tire, from a 2000 Dodge Avenger; white OEM 17" alloy wheel with a P215/R17 Goodyear Eagle LS tire with good tread left. No photo. Send me an email if you're interested in any piece. Gregory
