I spent a wonderful morning with my AP Computer Science students at Google headquarters in Bakers Square Pittsburgh. Google had an open house for selected groups, mostly schools, to showcase the opportunities and work environment that they have to offer. All I can say is that if your child has any interest at all in the CS fields the jobs out there are challenging, rewarding, plentiful, and oh

It’s also known as a “taking” because eminent domain is the governmental power to take private property. [...]For all of the opportunities (and potential problems) that Marcellus Shale brings to Pennsylvania residents, eminent domain is being

don't forget...CASH MOB today at Martins in Ligonier

2012-02-25T08:43:00.001-05:00

What is a cash mob? It's a demonstration in support of a local business. This one has no rules other than you go into Martins and buy anything large or small, anytime today.

Ligonier Cash Mobs!

2012-02-24T09:15:00.002-05:00
