Sony Trinitron 27" TV, excellent condition: $120 Sony VCR, excellent condition: $60 Both: $150 (Include manuals, remotes, original boxes. Our daughter has an epilepsy condition which is triggered by the flicka-flicka lights of TV screens, so we have not used these in a couple of years, and have no use for them.)
Yellow drop-leaf table: $20 OBO
2 Off-white area rugs, both about 10'x12': $15 each 1 Beige area rug, about 8'x10': also $15 (There are a couple of small spots on each; one of the off-white ones comes with a pad. Still rolled-up from our move to the neighborhood last year.)
Please contact me directly if any of these interest you! Thanks!

They are unpainted wood (so no paint chips), no sharp edges, and come in some interesting shapes (block, columns, arches, etc.). Approx. 75 blocks.

Free to whomever claims them first.

I thought I would tap into the Hive Mind to see if anyone has information regarding home energy audits. Recommendations or bad experiences with specific companies, in particular. I'd also like to know if you thought it was worth it, or any other commentary you might have.... since the going rate seems to be in the $300-$1000 range. Did you recoup your costs in energy savings? Tips, tricks, stuff you wish you'd known or asked?
Or, did you also have freezing cold walls and somehow solved it yourself? :)
Thanks so much for any help!

The Environmental Charter School (ECS) is gearing up for a meeting on December 7th with the City of Pittsburgh Planning Commission where hopefully they will approve expansion of the school, ultimately adding the Park Place building on Braddock Avenue (across from the Shadyside Academy Jr. School). We need your help to illustrate that the community supports this expansion. Signing our petition will help do that.
Although I've sent a similar email out before, I wanted to send one more request out to those that haven't signed yet....
Visit this link to sign the petition: http://www.ecspco.org/pco_blog/
To those that have already signed (either online or a paper form), thank you very much! Your signature has been counted!
We appreciate your support!
Thanks, Lydia Blank HP Neighbor and ECS Parent
PS...There is an open house on Sat, December 4 at 10am, if you're interested in learning more about the school. You can always sign the petition in person then, if you prefer not to sign online.

Hi neighbors!
Over the last three years, The Environmental Charter School at Frick Park (ECS) has provided a vibrant, innovative educational program for students in grades K through 5. By 2013, ECS will accommodate grades K-8. As the student population continues to grow, the campus will need to expand beyond its current location at 829 Milton Street.
On December 7, 2010, ECS will be proposing expansion to the former Park Place School building, 309 South Braddock Avenue, to the City of Pittsburgh Planning Commission. If approved, the Park Place campus will then accommodate grades K-3, while the Milton Street campus will accommodate grades 4-8. Your support is paramount for this project's success.
There is a petition being circulated, both a hard copy and online asking for community support for this expansion. Please sign only if you are a City of Pittsburgh resident, and please sign only once (paper or online, but not both).
Even if you don't live in the city, you can ask your friends, family, co-workers, etc. who DO live in the city to support ECS by signing. Feel free to forward this email to your friends too....
To sign, just click the link below to connect to the PCO website. There you'll find a button to click on to fill out the petition. It only takes 2 seconds.
