[Highland Park] Free Antique Chairs
by ErikSchark＠aol.com 30 Dec '05

30 Dec '05

I've set two chairs in front of my house at 5653 Callowhill St. (near the corner of Mellon). They're lovely antique chairs that we've had for a little while and have started to fall apart a bit. They're nice, but they could definitely use some loving. First come first served. Erik Schark

[Highland Park] found our checkbooks!
by Sherry Goldman 29 Dec '05

I thought everyone would be happy to know that they found our checkbooks in West Virginia! The police had pulled over a car and found it full of stuff, and our checkbooks were among them. l. I just wish the Pittsburgh police took this as seriously as the West Virginia police do. The officer told me that they have a special unit just for the purpose of pulling cars over. So hopefully all's well that ends well. Thanks for all of your support and well-wishes.

I have a dryer that, after more than two hours of operation, does not turn off. I looked through the tradespersons list and did not find any listings for appliance repair. Has anyone had good experience with a local appliance repairperson? Thanks, -- Jason -- Jason Weill jason(a)weill.org

Does anyone get a Frankferd Farms (organic groceries/household products) delivery? I'd like to use them, but don't know of a local buying club to meet the delivery minimum, and can't make their on-site pick-up times. Thanks! Leslie

[Highland Park] Casinos and Community
by Salvador Wilcox 28 Dec '05

28 Dec '05

Dear Highland Parkers (and other Pittsburgh communities), Education Innovations, Inc. will be sending out a press release urging our law makers to demand that casinos usher in a new era for the Pittsburgh region by concentrating on our educational stock and communities rather than by building arenas. We will be arguing that the economic effect of committing casino money to improving the education of our students-increased achievement and graduations, college, apprenticeship programs-and concentrating on workforce/entrepreneurship training for young and young-at-heart alike is larger, will last longer, and has the greatest potential to revitalize the region. Their knowledge transformed to action will last longer than the average life of any arena that can be built. Our students are the future of the region and they need as much help as they can, especially as our school district needs help both academically and financially. We are seeking other like-minded organizations-for profit, non-profit, community development corporations, etc.-to join with us. Please contact me below if you'd like to add your voice. We need more voices! Salvador Wilcox CEO Education Innovations, Inc. 6435 Frankstown Ave., 2nd Floor Pittsburgh, PA 15206 412.661.8751 ext. 150 www.educationinnovations.org Education Innovations, Inc. is a 501.c.3. nonprofit organization "building communities of seekers, learners, and teachers who share the world as a classroom." We do our work through your generous tax-deductible donations.
