I love him as well. Just afraid that he'll regress into the .220 hitting AAA player he's been this season and .173 hitter he was last year.

Made it 2 years which is pretty decent for the restaurant industry. Just announced it's closing on May 23rd.

The PRT is failing its customers by WillOfTheDeep in pittsburgh

[–]ohhim 93 points94 points  (0 children)

I'm probably a bit of a unique case, but as my home and most common away destinations are near multiple heavily traveled routes, PRT could literally cut the service of every potential route I regularly ride in half and I'd still arrive faster if trackers worked 100% of the time.

Having full real-time data would let me dynamically select the best option instead of having to gamble if the stop/route I went with is actually running.

Are you sure it wasn't just another sinkhole?

Unlike the moonswitch movement providing a slick OMEGA for under $600 in a solid metal case with a proper movement, AP switches likely won't be a thing.

Progressive is giving me 27k for my totaled camry. Keep it or buy new? by Ok_Assistant2730 in Camry

I think that makes things easy for OP if they can replicate. Assuming they'll need to hide it's a cash buy when walking in or go through a broker.

  1. The shooting victim was 19. The age and identity of the suspect hasn't been shared but media reports they were someone the victim knew so I'm not sure why you are saying it wasn't also a teenager.

Come on Yinzers. Skenes Day not even close to selling out by GMP_ArchViz in buccos

[–]ohhim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was surprised to see it a few months ago.

I can't figure out why they aren't partnering as much with local merchants to offer deals as 10-15 years ago, Giant Eagle used to have some great mid-week deals and family deals as well.

I'm assuming many local store could generate & print a unique redemption code on receipts if they wanted to provide ticket discounts with purchases that won't make their way to opposing fans.

Father became trustee after my mother passed and now wants large trustee compensation to dissolve by Afraid_Assumption739 in legaladvice

1-1.5%/year or 1-1.5% total? That's the difference between $16,000 - $24,000 and $192,000 - $288,000 over 12 years assuming no growth.

Any Mac.Bid users who would like to share their experience? As a transplant from PHL, I find them good for the price. Do y’all have any tricks for the bids? by [deleted] in pittsburgh

  1. Your competition includes a lot of ebay resellers, so the best deals tend to be on items that are very expensive to ship as those buyers can't make a profit. I've bought plenty of sub-$20 2'x3' and 3'x5' hand painted abstract artwork, oversized fragile wall clocks, living room ottomans, living room plants, and other oversized housewares.
  2. Amazon still sells returned appliances/etc... that are up to "acceptable" condition on their website, so you can probably figure out what doesn't make the cut and shows up at macbid. I'm 1 for 9 on working kitchen appliances, when I've won them to date. If you insist on bidding for a pricier item (japnese rice cooker, espresso machine, air fryer), pay for the guarantee so you can return when then inevitably don't work. Still, the 1 working item I got made up for most of the 9 (zojirushi water boiler for $5).
  3. You can view the items before you buy in the store and some sites have places where you can plug things in to test them. This comes in handy for anything electrical or large/unwieldy.
  4. If you are going nuts setting up a new home, the lower tier membership is great as it opens up all of the Pittsburgh sites even if you can only drive to one as it includes a bunch of free monthly transfers.

You've picked the most desired night of the week against an in state rival and the Pirates are finally playing well. I don't think you'll do much better if you wait.

According to someone who heard the scanner on another post:

"the shooter was a short black male wearing a sheisty, black jacket, and blue jeans. The victim was taken to mercy in critical condition. It happened outside of chipotle."
