Pittsburgh Sports Update
2008-04-27 16:08:00 If I wrote only a Pittsburgh sports blog, I would be required to discuss the Steelers draft. Since I don?t write a Pittsburgh sports blog, I don?t have to mention that I was surprised to see the Steelers select Illinois running back Rashard Mendenhall. I would express a concern that maybe Willie Parker?s recovery from a broken right fibula is not going that well. I would write that Najeh Davenport?s career as a Pittsburgh Steeler could be over. However, I would also state that I saw Mendenhall play in several games last season and he is an explosive running back who is fun to watch. Even if Willie Parker is 100%, Mendenhall can certainly take some carries away from Parker to give him rest for the entire season and playoffs. The Parker-Mendenhall combination could be one of the best running back tandems in the NFL. Although I would have liked to have seen the Steelers draft an offensive or defensive lineman in the first or second round, the team drafted two players, Mendenhall...

What?s wrong with higher ed: A WVU nutshell
2008-04-24 20:05:00 Administrators at West Virginia University have demonstrated, both by their actions and their words, exactly what’s wrong with higher education in the US. In case you missed it, here’s the story. Heather Bresch is the chief operating officer (COO) of Pittsburgh-based Mylan, Inc. She is also West Virginia governor Joe Manchin’s daughter. The CEO of Mylan is a longtime contributor to Machin’s political war chest. So far, it’s a pretty familiar story. A child of a close friend and associate is promoted to a top executive job. But wait! There’s more! Ms. Bresch published a biography claiming an MBA from West Virginia University. As a routine check, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette called WVU and, ding-ding-ding-ding-ding, there was no record of Ms. Bresch’s MBA award anywhere. Ms. Bresch protested that she had an agreement to substitute work experience for the final 22 (out of 48) hours she needed for an MBA, and that it was a records issu...

Pittsburgh Tribune Review Endorses Hillary Clinton!
2008-04-21 06:46:00 This says it all:The Tribune-Review mentioned Clinton's record and experience in making the choice in the Democratic vote, but also cited her willingness to sit down with the newspaper's editorial board."Clinton's decision to sit down with the Trib was courageous, given our long-standing criticism of her," the paper said. "That is no small matter. Political courage is essential in a president. Clinton has demonstrated it. Obama has not." (emphasis mine)That is no small endorsement! This is a huge vote of confidence from a source that has a long history of tough criticism of all things Clinton. Again:"Political courage is essential in a president. Clinton has demonstrated it. Obama has not."I don't know that I would totally agree that Obama hasn't shown "political courage," but I would absolutely agree that Senator Hillary Clinton has!She is battle tested and well vetted to deal with the GOP in November.Nice work Tribune-Review, I guess in the age of media labels, there i...
Pittsburgh Blogging: Day 2
2008-04-20 01:55:00 Well, today was another glorious day in the town of Pittsburgh.Here is me waking and greeting the world EARLY on a Saturday! Well..it's early for me."Oh look honey...daddy's got his hangover sunglasses on". Ok. I wasn't hungover...but it was still bright and I was still waking up.Our garage with my dad's home made wine. I can't wait til he comes up to NYC and can deliver a case of free wine. Holla.This is my old parakeet, Louie. He's kind of a bitch, but my mom seems to like his chirpy attitude. My dad tries to set him "free" into the woods.Here's the backyard where I spent a majority of my childhood. Here's the backyard where my dog spent a majority of his time "making".Speaking of childhood...my mother conned me into going through a lot of my old stuff from my childhood and agreeing to what could be thrown away. I think a majority of why they wanted me to visit Pittsburgh instead of them visit me in New York...was so I could help clean. Fooled again!Here's my reaction to ...
Pittsburgh Blogging: Day 1
2008-04-19 03:53:00 Well...I naturally underestimated the time I'd need to get from my apartment to Laguardia...but I made it. I was able to flee the city just in time for the pope to arrive.Day one was actually a pretty good day. :)After getting home and chatting it up with the rents for an hour, we were all caught up and I was left with nothing to do.So I headed to the mall...which ate up a total of 20 minutes. No one was there except for old people trying to get exercise...so I left and just drove around for a while.Back home, I talked to Bridget on the phone for like 30 minutes. That was fun. We talked about my trip to visit her in Chicago next month. Holla. I can't wait.My grandma came over for dinner: a tasty treat of veggies and my family's special cheesy noodles dish. Following the thrilling and depressing news, my father and I went to drop my Grandma off at her retirement community...where we sat for a while and discussed how her cat is so well behaved. We left when my father's allergies s...

Obama Gets Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Endorsement
2008-04-16 08:51:00 The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette backs Senator Barack Obama for President, writing......Pennsylvania -- this encrusted, change-averse commonwealth where a state liquor monopoly holds on against all reason and where municipal fiefdoms shrink from sensible consolidation -- needs to take a strong look at the new face and the new hope in this race. Because political business-as-usual is more likely to bring the usual disappointment for the Democrats this fall, the Post-Gazette endorses the nomination of Barack Obama, who has brought an excitement and an electricity to American politics not seen since the days of John F. Kennedy.The primary is this Tuesday, April 22nd.

Pittsburgh Penguins may not want to wake sleeping-giant Senators
2008-04-07 16:06:00 If this was indeed the March of the Penguins, they should have just detoured straight to Ottawa.Inasmuch as I would hesitate to call it tanking - after all, it's tough to accuse a legitimate Cup contender of throwing in the towel - you would be hard-pressed to find anyone say with a straight face that the Penguins, going through the motions in their season finale Sunday afternoon, were gunning for the top seed. It seemed pretty darn obvious the Penguins weren't exactly playing for a date with their cross-state cousin Flyers rather than orchestrating a matchup with the reeling Senators.Giving your captain the afternoon off and playing with the same intensity shown in an intra-squad scrimmage just doesn't seem like traits employed by a team shooting for #1.Now that isn't to say the Penguins had no interest winning in Philadelphia, but after Carolina's loss on Friday night, getting those two points wasn't what you or I would consider a pressing need.When you enjoy ...

PITTSBURGH COUPLE SUES GOOGLE OVER STREET VIEW
2008-04-04 21:42:00 View Larger Map A Pittsburgh couple is suing Google because photographs of their home are appearing on the company's street view service. The lawsuit, filed in Allegheny County court on April 2, claims there was a private road sign on their street that Google should have honored. It claims that Google's "reckless conduct" has "exposed plaintiff's private information to the public." Looking at the turnoff to Pittsburgh's Oakridge Lane on Google Street View, though, shows a street sign but no obvious private road warning--meaning that, perhaps, any sign didn't exist when the Google van drove by. In addition, photographs of the house appear on the county's Web site, as well as the assessed value of Aaron and Christine Boring's home and the lot size. In general, of course, photographs taken of homes from the public street (or the air) are perfectly legal and protected by the First Amendment's freedom of the press.
