[Highland Park] FYI about incidents earlier this week
by Julie Gammill Gibson 30 Nov '07

30 Nov '07

The bad news: In addition to the shooting of the clerk at the Walnut Market on Bryant on Friday, there were also two armed robberies in the neighborhood area (one near Stanton at Highland, the other near Jackson at Heths) earlier in the week. The good news: The police arrested some teenagers from Homewood in connection with Stanton/Highland and Jackson/Heths armed robberies. There were blurbs about it in the Trib and the Post-Gazette. http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/search/s_540046.html http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/07332/837254-53.stm Julie ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better sports nut!

I am seeking a recommendation for a plasterer who could repair a small (approx 12" x 18") hole in my living room ceiling. The lathing was cut and would need to be replaced as well.

Another employee was another section of the store at the time of the shooting and was not injured.

[Highland Park] Highland Park Playgroup
by Leesa Phaneuf 30 Nov '07

30 Nov '07

My husband, Matt, posted a few days ago regarding the possibility of starting a local playgroup and has now passed the baton to me. We're very interested in starting one as soon as possible. Our daughter is 19 months but I'm hoping that we can form a relaxed and inclusive group that is open to children of different ages. After all, it's also about the opportunity to meet and chat up other parents who live in the area. I've been talking to a friend who is interested and we're hoping to schedule a playgroup on Monday or Friday mornings and are open to suggestions on where we can meet. Yvonne VH has suggested the possibility of meeting at the Pittsburgh Toy Lending Library since membership is pretty cheap for the year when you volunteer a bit---volunteer 4 hours a month, w/your child if you want, and it's only 35 dollars for the year. Does anyone have any other suggestions that we can consider? And can we shoot for starting our group in the next couple of weeks? Leesa Reynolds

[Highland Park] Local Computer Support and Repairs
by Steve Karl 30 Nov '07

30 Nov '07

Greetings, I just wanted to give everyone a "heads up" that you have a local community member that specializes in Computer ( PC ) Support and repairs and also has a "quick answer" help desk that is a local number, ( I'm on Winterton St. ... not in Asia ! ) for existing clients. My name is Steve Karl and I run and maintain the Pittsburgh PC Help Desk which can be found at: http://www.sightsea.com/pghpchd/ My "pet peeve" ::: New Computers that run very poorly because that "name brand company" put all that junk-ware in the machine. I've gotten really good at cleaning them up and making them perform well. Free Anti-Virus software that out performs the "2 big sellers" and is very "light weight" and easy on your PC. Initial phone consult is no charge, and most "quick calls" from existing clients are also no charge. Hardware repair / replacement also. So, give me a ring if you need some help, a recommendation on what to buy and where to get it, or just want more general info. Thanks, Steve Karl 412-441-4349

[Highland Park] Need Dell Printer Ink?
by Patricia Butterfield 29 Nov '07

29 Nov '07

Hi, I recently bought a new printer and am left with a lot of ink I can no longer use. Here's what I have: 5 cartridges of Dell Color Series 5 J5587 4 cartridges of Dell Black Series 5 J5566 I had a Dell All in One 962. I know this ink series fits a number of Dell printers, but I'm not sure which ones other than the AIO 962. The ink is worth $212.91 ($21.99 each for black and $24.99 each for color). I'm asking $100 or best offer. Email if interested. Pat Butterfield
