NEIGHBORHOOD HI-LIGHTS
Congratulations to new mayor Bill Peduto
Last night, we made history, and today, we are a step closer to a New Pittsburgh.
Our New Coalition was built from the ground up. It encompasses ordinary Pittsburghers from North, South, East and West. Pittsburghers from labor to environmentalists, from women's groups to youth, from the LGBT community to a broad base of elected officials. We built our support from every race, gender and corner of this city.
And, we could not have done this without you.
You who knocked on doors, who phone-banked, who donated, who spoke to your family and friends whether in person or through social media. You took the power back from those who have run this city for decades and put it squarely back in the community and the people who live in it.
You saw the potential that Pittsburgh has and know that we have the opportunity—and the responsibility—to build our great city once again.
Thank you.
Together, we will make Pittsburgh the city we know it can be.
Bill

POSITIVE PITTSBURGHERS SEGMENT
How would you like to learn how to use that new digital camera you picked up? Or perhaps you would like to take better photographs? Well I have the perfect solution for you as I am holding another 2 day workshop at my studio on June 8th and 9th.
Just to help those of you who are very confused by all of those bells and whistles on your camera! Our class back in February was so successful that many have been asking that I teach another workshop. I will show you how to shoot fireworks, moving subjects, stopping action and depth of field. I do hope that you can join us in taking charge of more creative photos! $25 discount if you book before June 1st. Offer Expires: 06/02/13.
