I’ve had people beggi ng me to go to Mill Creek Park\, near Youngstown\, Ohio. It’s only 43 miles from Cranberry (same distance as Monroeville to Donegal). Problem is I don ’t really know the trails in Mill Creek Park. I’ve biked there before but I ’ve never hiked there. And the trails are kind of on-again\, off-again. But \, what the hey …. !! Let’s do it. With all the brain power we will have amassed on site\, we’ve got to be able to figure out the trails and not get lost. \n\nI have no idea how many miles. We go up one side of Mill Creek and down the other side. Let’s say 8 miles and somehow\, we’ll make a loop out of it. You can study this map of Mill Creek Park (click here for map). \n\nMill Creek cu ts a neat gorge into the underlying soft limestone of the Ohio plateau. The re are rocks\, lakes\, waterfalls\, dirt trails\, boardwalks\, wetlands\, i slands\, abandoned blacktop\, and many historic sites like Lanterman’s Mill and Covered Bridge\, a photo-worthy suspension bridge on the road\, and a collection of old boathouses and pavilions dating back to the CCC. . \n\nA wilderness hike it’s not. A blood-and-guts bootbuster it’s not. Maybe it’s interesting\, maybe it’s not. We’ll find out. That’s the nature of adventu re and discovery and exploration. So\, if you’re game\, RSVP “yes” for Mill Creek Park. \n\nYou can meet us in Cranberry. From there\, you can car poo l with someone else or drive on your own. Or you can meet us in Youngstown. \n\nThis will be a moderately-paced hike with frequent one-minute stops\, n ot a race\; we will stop to touch the soft limestone of Mill Creek Gorge an d photograph the many CCC relics along the way. \n\nPlan to stay together a s a group\, no hikers left behind. Intermediate difficulty\; this may be a taxing hike\, climbing in and out of the gorge. Temperatures will be chilly to cold. I hope there’s no mud. We shouldn’t have to cross any streams on rocks-we should have footbridges all the way. \n\nWe will meet at 9 AM at Cranberry Mall\, in the parking lot behind King’s Restaurant. This is just south of the junction of US 19 and PA 228\, easily accessible from I-79 or the PA Turnpike. I will be wearing a red bandana. You are welcome to call me at 412.576.0849 for further details or if you can’t find us. \n\nAlterna tely\, you can meet up with us in Youngstown at the parking lot at the corn er of Shields Rd and E. Golf Drive (the hike/bike trail). Be there at 10:0 0 AM. The way I usually go is west on the PA Turnpike\, then north on Ohio Route 7\, and west again on US 224. Go about a mile on 224 and turn right on West Blvd. In another mile turn left on Shields Rd. Go 100 yards and wat ch for the parking area on the left side of the road on E. Golf Drive (also called E. Newport Dr.) There are no rest rooms at that location so stop al ong OH Route 7 or US 224 at any one of the fast food joints on this road. H ere is a map for your reference: (click here for map). . When I get there\ , I'll put the red bandana somewhere conspicuous (like my neck). \n\nThe hi ke will involve approximately 4 hours of hiking\, around 30 minutes for a l unch break\, and several breaks along the trail. I hike at a moderate 2 mph pace that includes stops. We wait for all to catch up at trail junctions\, road or stream crossings\, and the tops of hills\; “no hikers left behind” . You can plan on being off the trail by 4:00 PM. \n\nThis hike is intermed iate difficulty. There may be several climbs up and down the sides of the g orge\, maybe some sections of rough trail. This is not an “easy” hike\, nor is it a “bootbuster”. However\, this should not be the first time you’ve h iked 8 miles on a hiking trail. \n\nBring a lunch\, some snacks to eat whil e hiking\, dress in layers\, and bring at least one quart/liter of water. M any people enjoy bringing something to share with the group at lunch. This time of year\, temperatures range from chilly to cold\, so dress in layers and put on or take off as you need to during the day. \n\nAfter the hike\, those of us who are so inclined may stop in the area for refreshments\, a s nack\, or dinner. On the way\, keep your eyes peeled for a good place to st op. \n\nThere are no fees or charges for this activity\; however\, if you r ide with someone to the trailhead\, you should offer to contribute to the c ost of gas and tolls. A carpool contribution of 7 cents per mile is suggest ed but negotiable. One way distance from Cranberry to the trailhead is abou t 43 miles ($3.01 each way). Turnpike toll from Cranberry to the Ohio line is an astonishing $3.75. Splitting the toll 3 ways puts you in the neighbor hood of $8.50 round trip. So\, if you ride with someone else\, please offer to help out with gas and tolls\n\nCranberry Twp\, PA 16066 - USA\n\nSunda y\, November 8 at 9:00 AM\n\nPhoto: http://photos1.meetupstatic.com/photos/ event/a/5/e/5/event_2442469.jpeg\n\nAttending: 20\n\nDetails: http://www.me etup.com/pittsburghhikers/calendar/11445338/ LAST-MODIFIED:20091107T224820Z UID:event_11445338@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20090923T115053Z DTSTAMP:20091108T050314Z DTSTART:20091108T140000Z DTEND:20091108T160000Z GEO:40.43;-79.92 LOCATION:King's Restaurant - Cranberry Mall - 20111 Route 19 - Cranberry Tw p\, PA 16066 - USA URL:http://www.meetup.com/pittsburghhikers/calendar/11445338/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Sunday (sinners) Ride DESCRIPTION:Sport Bike Alliance of Pittsburgh\n\nRide! \n\nPunxsutawney\, P ennsylvania (loop)\nhttp://files.meetup.com/510989/sunday_t_by_t.pdf\n\nMon roeville\, PA 15146 - USA\n\nSunday\, November 8 at 10:00 AM\n\nPhoto: htt p://photos1.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/d/b/a/9/event_7376233.jpeg\n\nAtt ending: 9\n\nDetails: http://www.sportbikealliance.com/calendar/11770713/ LAST-MODIFIED:20091107T174454Z UID:event_11770713@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20091102T164143Z DTSTAMP:20091108T050314Z DTSTART:20091108T150000Z DTEND:20091108T170000Z GEO:40.47;-80.02 LOCATION:Damons parking lot - 4070 William Penn Highway - Monroeville\, PA 15146 - USA URL:http://www.sportbikealliance.com/calendar/11770713/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Trader Jack's Flea Market DESCRIPTION:The Pittsburgh photo safari meetup group\n\nHere is a link to t he Flea Market: http://www.traderjacksfleamarket.net/ I thought we could meet at the Flagpole\, as is pictured on the homepage of their site.

(without lighters or matches which can not be depended on in an emergency) . As it gets closer to winter\, every person who hikes\, xxskis or backpa cks should learn basic fire making skills using steel and magnesium surviav al kits( very inexpensive to buy and almost no weight.) Bathroom is nearby \nThe hike will continue on the Pallimino trail and we will work our way do wn to th wetlands trail where bird sighting are very common.This trail lead s to the lower lake. They say there is fish in there but I have never caugh t one yet. From there we will take the heritage trail to the waterfall \, cave and spring which used to be a resort area. Hike will continue to loop bak to parking lot so no shuttle is needed. The trail does have some hill s\, but if you have done southpointe or boyce mayview you will not have a problem. I recently went to the Hickory Apple festival and upon our return I will share some of my crumb topping apple pie. I hope to complete hike in 2 - 2 1/2 hours. Depends on speed of group. Will wait at all intersecti ons and top of all hills. Do not see any reason why well behaved friends(do gs) would not be welcome\n\nWhere to meet: In the parking lot of the park office located on RTE 18.

It's an easy process that goes down deep and works out the longstanding things that works against us. \n\nThe Story\nI had an interesting journey with this. My friend who is a multi-millionaire gave me a set of the cds a nd I started reading the books. The first attempt\, I got through the firs t three cds. It seemed repetitive and my ego was telling me that this was everything that I already knew and it seemed like there was nothing there.\ n\nIt wasn't until I received a newsletter in the mail\, that I started to take this seriously. On the newsletter\, there were a lot of people who we re saying that they had gotten married within a year or get rich within a y ear. Reading the brochure\, I realized that the technique was taught to th e guy who had taught Hale Dwoskin 'The Sedona Method'. Knowing that I need ed help doing this\, I decided to get together friends to do this weekly. Within a couple of months\, I meet David\, who eventually became my fiance. I said that I had wanted a duplex by the end of the year\, and by the end of the year\, I was living in his duplex. By the end of the next couple o f months\, I will have bought a real estate property that will ensure my pa rent's retirement. All the things that I had said that I wanted and put on my goal list.\n\nSo\, here's round two: I haven't done it much since I've come out to Pittsburgh\, and I'd love to get it down a bit more and see if it truly makes a difference in everyone's lives. So\, I'm proposing that everyone could get Hale Dwoskin's 'Sedona Method' book\, read a chapter a w eek\, then come together to listen to the audio. There are thirteen cds\, and 20 chapters\, so hopefully by week 14\, we'll be practiced in the techn ique that we could talk and then release until we're done with the book. \ n\nWe will be asking for a suggested $5 donation for the use of the space\, but no one will be turned away for the lack of funds.\n\nPittsburgh\, PA 15217 - USA\n\nMonday\, November 9 at 7:00 PM\n\nPhoto: http://photos2.meet upstatic.com/photos/event/c/0/0/7/event_8689159.jpeg\n\nAttending: 2\n\nDet ails: http://www.meetup.com/The-Pittsburgh-Metaphysics-Meetup-Group/calenda r/11170352/ LAST-MODIFIED:20090822T042641Z UID:event_11170352@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20090822T042641Z DTSTAMP:20091108T050314Z DTSTART:20091110T000000Z DTEND:20091110T020000Z GEO:40.43;-79.92 LOCATION:David and Mia's Place - 6215 Monitor St - Pittsburgh\, PA 15217 - USA URL:http://www.meetup.com/The-Pittsburgh-Metaphysics-Meetup-Group/calendar/ 11170352/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:~ Steelers Monday Night Football ~ DESCRIPTION:Newly and Not So Newly Singles\n\nJoin me at Jerome Bettis’ gri lle 36 for Monday Night football when the Steelers take on the undefeated B ronco’s who in week 8 are ahead of our Super Bowl champs and ranked at No. 3.

That can be a little flexible\, and you won't miss much if you have to come later\, or leave early.

Both refer to beer served using old-school storage/dispensing technology in pla ce of the force carbonation systems. The idea is that carbonation is added by letting a beer condition in a closed container and manually pulling out the result while replacing air to fill in the volume you've extracted. The result is a very traditional beer with a far more complex flavor than you m ight be used to.\n\nPipers Pub it's Pittsburgh's very own "Real Ale Advocat e." They tend to keep two beers on cask\, in addition to a wide variety of European-themed beers both in bottles and from a more typical forced-CO2 dr aft system. It's a good break from the ongoing "my IPA is hoppier and highe r alcohol than your IPA" battle that makes up much of the craft beer univer se.\n\nBasically\, if you like beer...it's worth checking them out.\n\nPitt sburgh\, PA 15203 - USA\n\nWednesday\, November 11 at 7:00 PM\n\nPhoto: ht tp://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/8/7/2/e/event_6574606.jpeg\n\nAt tending: 9\n\nDetails: http://www.meetup.com/The-Pittsburgh-Beer-Meetup/cal endar/11674465/ LAST-MODIFIED:20091022T011907Z UID:event_11674465@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20091021T011240Z DTSTAMP:20091108T050314Z DTSTART:20091112T000000Z DTEND:20091112T020000Z GEO:40.45;-79.99 LOCATION:Piper's Pub - 1828 East Carson St. - Pittsburgh\, PA 15203 - USA URL:http://www.meetup.com/The-Pittsburgh-Beer-Meetup/calendar/11674465/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:PDNA: Pizza A-Z #11: K = Krazy Brothers (take-out) DESCRIPTION:Pittsburgh Dining N'At\n\nIf you love pizza\, join us in the se arch for Pittsburgh's best pie!\n\nEvent #11 in the series will feature car ry-out from Krazy Brothers pizza in Brookline.

It's been said that the body is m erely that part of the soul or spirit that is plainly visible and tangible. Everything that we experience and grow from has an effect on the body. E very experience leaves traces. They may be subtle\, but they are real and they accumulate.\n\nSo the more we feel anger\, the easier it is for us to feel anger. The more we feel peaceful\, the more easily we can revisit pea ce - even in a chaotic world. Beyond that\, there are many benefits of hav ing a calm center. Better health\, more clarity\, and a greater sense of e ase are just a few.\n\nJoin us as we explore various techniques drawn from Kriya yoga\, tantra\, and shamanism. This is an on-going group that is als o open to newcomers. We combine group discussion of triumphs and challenge s and different techniques with active exploration of meditation and yoga.\ n\nAll are welcome. Yoga mats are not necessary. Comfortable clothing suit able for bending and stretching is recommended. Come create together and s hare in the warmth\, welcome\, and wisdom.\n\nRecommended minimum donation: $10.\n\n-------------------------\n\nDuring a near-death experience\, Dav id Park realized the profoundness of letting go and living in joy. Since th at time\, he has dedicated himself to realizing the power and simplicity of this vision\, both in his own life and as a path to helping others and hea ling the planet.

We'll meet at Coff ee Tree Roasters in Shadyside to chat\, drink coffee\, and listen to music. You can bring your favorite CDs or music on iPod/MP3 player to share -- yo u can even bring an instrument to play if you'd like. And you can just come for the coffee and company – you absolutely aren't required to bring music . \n\nBring any music -- if you have music of your own creation\, if you're passionate about a particular musician or band\, or if you just like somet hing and feel like sharing. It could be a recent find or something that inf luenced your childhood and got you though your teenage years. It could be s omething you love or it could even be something you hate -- just tell us wh y. Music is as much a story as anything -- it could be a story of you\, or the story of the artist who created the music\, or the story could be embed ded in the song itself waiting for us to listen. Feel free to bring a story to share along with the music -- or not\, if you prefer. \n\nWe're totally open to any kind of music so\, please\, bring anything you'd like to share be it classical\, ethnic\, heavy metal\, or whatever -- even classical eth nic heavy metal (I bet it exists). If you can bring a boom box or speakers (for MP3 players) please mention it in your RSVP. We'll be meeting at Coffe e Tree Roasters on Thursday the 12th from 7pm (to probably 9pm though the r oom's booked until 10pm). Thanks to fellow meeps who suggested I post this.

I have backpacked and hik ed this awesome trail before. The plan is to backpack 8 miles per day for 3 days to complete the 23.8 mile trail. We would stash water roughly at the trail midpoint since there is no reliable water source along the trail only a spring which we can’t rely on. We need to do a vehicle shuttle so need a few cars. There are two awesome campsites at 8 and 16 miles and that's wh ere we will be spend the nights. My dates in mind for the actual backpackin g providing there is not a great possibility of rain are 11-13(F)\, 11-14(S T)\, and 11-15(SN). You must have prior backpacking experience\, this outin g is moderately strenuous\, and the pace will be moderate so we can enjoy t he many scenic viewpoints. I got a very close up view of a mature bald eagl e this Spring from one of the may overlooks. \n\nWe can meet on Thursday night at the northern terminus of the NFM Trail so we can get an early star t to set-up the vehicle shuttle and drop-off water at the midpoint. There i s a flat area a short distance from the northern terminus parking area wher e we can camp Thursday night. I passed by it this Spring and it is mentione d in the MNF Hiking Guide. There are spots for a few tents. Take WV28 east/ north from Seneca Rocks then make a right onto FR74\, you will cross a bran ch of the Potomac River\, and a short distance on your right hand side will be a small area for parking at the northern terminus of the NFM Trail. Ple ase watch for FR74\, it also eventually goes to the Smoke Hole Rec. Area. I f you reach Petersburg\, WV on WV28 then you have gone too far. There is lo dging and other camping in the area so that is an option too. I will meet e veryone at the northern terminus parking area at 745-8AM on Friday in case others choose not to camp in the northern terminus area Thursday night. \n\ nPlease bring sufficient water for the midpoint water drop-off.\n\nSeneca R ocks\, WV 26884 - USA\n\nFriday\, November 13 at 7:45 AM\n\nPhoto: http:// photos4.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/c/3/event_7800195.jpeg\n\nAttending: 7\n\nDetails: http://www.meetup.com/The-Southwestern-PA-Backpackers-Meetup- Group/calendar/11666045/ LAST-MODIFIED:20091029T135010Z UID:event_11666045@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20091020T023141Z DTSTAMP:20091108T050314Z DTSTART:20091113T124500Z DTEND:20091113T144500Z GEO:40.31;-79.38 LOCATION:North Fork Mountain (NFM) Trail - US33\, WV28 - Seneca Rocks\, WV 26884 - USA URL:http://www.meetup.com/The-Southwestern-PA-Backpackers-Meetup-Group/cale ndar/11666045/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Friday the 13th Happy Hour at the North Shore Saloon DESCRIPTION:Newly and Not So Newly Singles\n\nMake sure that you do NOT hav e bad luck on Friday the 13th by joining us for Happy Hour at North Shore S aloon!

REI is an upper end outdoor gear shop that supplies equip ment and clothing for hiking\, backpacking\, biking\, kayaking\, rock climb ing\, and just about every other outdoor pursuit you can think of. REI is provinding each participant of this hike with a 15 % off coupon on any regu lar priced item. This is also a great place to get a headlamp for any nigh t activity. I do not have stock in REI\, and I get nothing. But I have be en very pleased with everything I have purchased\, and their return policy is very liberal.. REI also has a climbing wall and if there is interest\, we can reserve it some night at a later time. \n\nHike Details: \nWe will meet at the jail trail trailhead located at Swinburne Street. That is locat ed off of Second Ave.\, just after passing the Hot Metal bridge going out o f town. Turn left on Swinburne and then make the first RIGHT into the parki ng lot. There are bathrooms there. Do not go into the parking lot on the l eft because that is reserved for UPMC employees. PLease be prompt as we pl an to leave at 6:30 p.m.. \n\nThe hike will be about 6 miles and we walk a brisk pace of 2.5 -3 mph. Unlike most of my other hikes\, THERE ARE NO HI LLS!. I would classify this as an intermediate hike due to the distance a nd brisk pace. We will be on all paved hiking trails or crushed limestone. The hike will follow the jail trail to Smithfield St bridge and we will cro ss over river to Station Square. The view of the city lit at night from her e is spectacular.. The trail then goes along the river through riverfront p ark\, and through a wooded area(lights needed)\, till we get to REI . Hopef ully we will get there about 8:00. We will have some time to shop since th e store is open till 9:00 .(bathroom available ). You are free to return to your car\, just a few minutes away over the Hot metal Bridge new 12 milli on dollar walkway(another fantastic view of the city)\, or you are welcome to stay and have dinner at the German Brew Works\, Cheesecake factory\, Sp anish Tapa's\, or there is also a good Irish Place that has heaters outsid e. \n\nWhat to bring: water and a light. dress for the weather. The hike will go on no matter the weather. If weather is too severe we may take sh ortcut just to REI. $$$ for rei or for dinner.\n\nWhen participating in Pi ttsburgh Hiking Meetup events\, it is assumed that all participants are res ponsible for their own safety and of their dependents (such as children) at the event.

This is the 3rd segment\, from the Springdale VFW to Emmerling Park. If you are out of shape\, or haven't been hiking\, this is not for you. It will be agonizing\, and you will be h olding everyone else up. \n\n Getting on these hills is the best way to se e if you would be interested in or capable of completing the Rachel Carson Trail Challenge. http://www.rachelcarsontrails.org/rct/challenge\n\nThis is considered the toughest of the 4 segments\, and includes Log Cabin Hill (u p and long down)\, Lefever Hill (long up)\, and Rich Hill (down). Going dow n Log Cabin Hill in particular can be quite challenging if it's not complet ely dry. These can be intimidating for a first timer. Hiking poles do make it more manageable. There will be quite a variety of terrain\, some scenic\ , some not\, including over 2 miles of road walking\, and many hills. \n\nI will be hiking at the back of the group\, but for those who are familiar w ith the trail\, feel free to go ahead at you own pace. If you haven't been on the trail before\, it is easy to get lost\, and you should stay with som eone who knows where they are going. I would expect to be done in between 3 hours 15 minutes to 3 hours 45 minutes.\n\nWe will meet at the Emmerling P ark at 9:45 AM. There is a large parking area. At 10:00 AM\, we will then s huttle the group in as few cars as possible to the start area at the Spring dale VFW.

Beautiful Scenery \, Awesome Waterfall\, a historical Mill \,Covered Bridge and some challeng ing hiking.\n\nAfterward we are going to the Browns Country Kitchen Restaur ant on Rt. 488 for a bite to eat!\n\nWe are meeting at this parking lot clo se the the Mill at the park before 10am (CLICK ON THIS GOOGLE MAP LINK! And then select get directions to give you directions to this parking lot).\n\ nOnce everyone is gathered together at 10am at the Parking Lot close to the intersection of Kildoo and McConnells Mill Road... (WE NEED YOU TO BE AT THE PARKING LOT BEFORE 10AM!)\n\nWe will get a HEADCOUNT and Portage People to the beginning of the Trail by Hells Hollow Falls. We should start hiki ng by 10:30 am. The hike will take about 4.5 hours at the most including r ests. \n\nThis is a dog friendly hike. And also a kid friendly hike (as l ong as the dogs\\kids and the parents are IN SHAPE! This is a tough hike). \n Map of McConnels Mill State Park (PDF)\n\nLook for Hells Hollow Falls as our Start Point of the Trail\, End Point of the Trail is the McConnells Mi ll. Meeting Point is Parking Lot at corner of Kildoo Road and McConnells Mill Road.\n\nHells Hollow: 0.5-mile\, easy hiking\nThis trail begins at t he Hells Hollow parking lot and follows and twice crosses Hell Run on its w ay to a limekiln and Hells Hollow Falls. Although the main trail is smooth and level\, the section by the waterfall can be slippery.\n\nKildoo: 2-mile loop\, moderate hiking (we are only hiking one mile of this trail).\nKildo o trail is south of the Old Mill and begins at either end of the covered br idge. This trail is a delightful walk along Slippery Rock Creek. The first 400 yards of the trail on the east bank of the creek is paved for the self- guiding interpretive/nature trail. The trail continues on rocky terrain to Eckert Bridge where hikers cross Slippery Rock Creek and hike up the west s ide of the creek to the covered bridge. The western section of the trail ha s blue blazes and is part of the North Country National Scenic Trail.\n\nSl ippery Rock Gorge: 6.2 miles\, blue blazes\, moderate to difficult hiking\n Part of the North Country National Scenic Trail\, Slippery Rock Gorge Trail begins jointly with Hells Hollow Trail at the Hells Hollow parking lot. Th e Gorge Trail splits off just before the second footbridge. The first two m iles of the trail follows the upper Hell Run Valley. The rest of the trail follows the Slippery Rock Creek Gorge north for just over four miles to Eck ert Bridge. At about the 3.5-mile point\, the trail descends into the deepe st part of the gorge. This broad alluvial flood plain is known as Walnut Fl ats. The trail then becomes more difficult\, traversing very steep terrain. At the 5-mile point\, the trail crosses uplands then drops back down to cr eek level and follows along the creek bank to Eckert Bridge.\n\nAdvice: Thi s is a fun but tough hike. If you cannot hike up large hills without bein g very winded\, do not do this trail. This trail will chew up Couch Potat oes! People who are in Moderately good Shape will be tired after this hike .\n\nBring a Camelback\\Water\, Hiking Pole\, Appropriate Clothing\\Shoes\\ Boots\, and something to snack on.\n\nFrank's Contact Info: Email: frank@p ubcrawl.us Phone: 724-630-7073\n\n\nPortersville\, PA 16051 - USA\n\nSunda y\, November 15 at 10:00 AM\n\nPhoto: http://photos1.meetupstatic.com/photo s/event/a/5/e/5/event_2442469.jpeg\n\nAttending: 13\n\nDetails: http://www. meetup.com/pittsburghhikers/calendar/11816518/ LAST-MODIFIED:20091107T022735Z UID:event_11816518@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20091107T022735Z DTSTAMP:20091108T050314Z DTSTART:20091115T150000Z DTEND:20091115T170000Z GEO:40.43;-79.92 LOCATION:McConnell's Mill State Park - McConnells Mill Rd. - Portersville\, PA 16051 - USA URL:http://www.meetup.com/pittsburghhikers/calendar/11816518/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Steelers Tailgate Outreach DESCRIPTION:Share Your Faith in Pittsburgh\n\nOpen Air Preach before the ga me.\n\nPgh\, PA 15212 - USA\n\nSunday\, November 15 at 11:00 AM\n\nPhoto: http://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/a/9/d/d/event_6943485.jpeg\n\n Attending: 1\n\nDetails: http://www.meetup.com/shareyourfaith/calendar/1086 0130/ LAST-MODIFIED:20091019T183547Z UID:event_10860130@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20090712T220142Z DTSTAMP:20091108T050314Z DTSTART:20091115T160000Z DTEND:20091115T180000Z GEO:40.45;-79.99 URL:http://www.meetup.com/shareyourfaith/calendar/10860130/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Sunday Brunch @ Double Wide Grill DESCRIPTION:The Pittsburgh Vegan Meetup\n\nBrunch 11am- 2pm\nLots of vegan/ vegetarian menu items.\nwww.doublewidegrill.com\n\nPittsburgh\, PA 15203 - USA\n\nSunday\, November 15 at 11:00 AM\n\nPhoto: http://photos4.meetupst atic.com/photos/event/8/e/f/4/event_4656596.jpeg\n\nAttending: 22\n\nDetail s: http://www.meetup.com/pittsburgh-vegans/calendar/11692961/ LAST-MODIFIED:20091101T121809Z UID:event_11692961@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20091023T105947Z DTSTAMP:20091108T050314Z DTSTART:20091115T160000Z DTEND:20091115T180000Z GEO:40.43;-79.92 LOCATION:Double Wide Grill - 2339 E Carson St - Pittsburgh\, PA 15203 - US A URL:http://www.meetup.com/pittsburgh-vegans/calendar/11692961/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Sunday Brunch - Hokkaido Seafood Buffet DESCRIPTION:Pittsburgh Dining N'At\n\nI'd like to have Sunday brunch with p eople\, maybe once per month?\n\nThe Hokkaido Seafood Buffet is a new Chine se/Japanese/Asian buffet that has gotten good reviews (i.e. my parents' fri ends have said that it's good!).\n\nLet's meet for a Sunday brunch there at 11:30 am (before noon).

It's an easy process that goes down deep and works out the longstanding things that works against us. \n\nThe Story\nI had an interesting journey with this. My friend who is a multi-millionaire gave me a set of the cds a nd I started reading the books. The first attempt\, I got through the firs t three cds. It seemed repetitive and my ego was telling me that this was everything that I already knew and it seemed like there was nothing there.\ n\nIt wasn't until I received a newsletter in the mail\, that I started to take this seriously. On the newsletter\, there were a lot of people who we re saying that they had gotten married within a year or get rich within a y ear. Reading the brochure\, I realized that the technique was taught to th e guy who had taught Hale Dwoskin 'The Sedona Method'. Knowing that I need ed help doing this\, I decided to get together friends to do this weekly. Within a couple of months\, I meet David\, who eventually became my fiance. I said that I had wanted a duplex by the end of the year\, and by the end of the year\, I was living in his duplex. By the end of the next couple o f months\, I will have bought a real estate property that will ensure my pa rent's retirement. All the things that I had said that I wanted and put on my goal list.\n\nSo\, here's round two: I haven't done it much since I've come out to Pittsburgh\, and I'd love to get it down a bit more and see if it truly makes a difference in everyone's lives. So\, I'm proposing that everyone could get Hale Dwoskin's 'Sedona Method' book\, read a chapter a w eek\, then come together to listen to the audio. There are thirteen cds\, and 20 chapters\, so hopefully by week 14\, we'll be practiced in the techn ique that we could talk and then release until we're done with the book. \ n\nWe will be asking for a suggested $5 donation for the use of the space\, but no one will be turned away for the lack of funds.\n\nPittsburgh\, PA 15217 - USA\n\nMonday\, November 16 at 7:00 PM\n\nPhoto: http://photos2.mee tupstatic.com/photos/event/c/0/0/7/event_8689159.jpeg\n\nAttending: 4\n\nDe tails: http://www.meetup.com/The-Pittsburgh-Metaphysics-Meetup-Group/calend ar/11170356/ LAST-MODIFIED:20090822T042731Z UID:event_11170356@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20090822T042731Z DTSTAMP:20091108T050314Z DTSTART:20091117T000000Z DTEND:20091117T020000Z GEO:40.43;-79.92 LOCATION:David and Mia's Place - 6215 Monitor St - Pittsburgh\, PA 15217 - USA URL:http://www.meetup.com/The-Pittsburgh-Metaphysics-Meetup-Group/calendar/ 11170356/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Gamer Mondays at the Z Lounge -- Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 DESCRIPTION:SPORTSNUTS of Pittsburgh Sports League & Social Club\n\nWe're g oing to be at the Z Lounge in the South Side every Monday to play video gam es.

For some\, this is a happy time\, full of excitement and pos sibility. For others\, it is a time of overwhelm as everything seems to co me to a head at once and we struggle as we feel pushed forward by events ra ther than making our reality joyfully and easily.\n\nRegardless of how the season feels for you\, staying in touch with your inner sense of joy and pu rpose can be vital. If you’re already riding high\, it can take you higher \, farther\, and faster forward. If you’re feeling frustrated or overwhelm ed\, it can bring you back to a sense of centeredness and peace.\n\nBeyond tasks and projects\, the holidays are also a time of re-connecting with fam ily and old friends. Hopefully\, this is a joyous prospect for you. Unfor tunately\, for many\, it is not. One man always had to “detox” for several weeks after visiting his parents for just a weekend.\n\nThere is also the true story of a young woman who decided to spend a long holiday weekend wit h her family for the first time in several years. She had been avoiding th e whole clan because of all of the arguments and frustration that always ha ppened.\n\nFortunately\, she’d done a lot of work to release old arguments and anger and was able to join them with genuine love and appreciation. Sh e had a wonderful time with her family and noticed that not only did she no t have any fights\, no one else did\, either.\n\nJoin us for a gentle intro duction to the Law of Attraction and other success principles\, including m ore advanced techniques for recognizing and releasing old patterns\, expect ations\, frustration\, and anger. Once these things are fully released\, y ou don’t have to deal with them the same way ever again. If they do return as echoes\, they are easily recognized and released\, making room for more joyful creations.\n\nAs a regular practice\, these techniques can help you to move forward quickly and gracefully\, resolving “stuck” areas or patter ns that may have persisted for years or even decades.\n\nIn this class\, we will:\n\n· Review the basic principles of the Law of Attraction and consid er how the same principles are reflected in other traditions\, some very an cient. \n· Examine the relationship of the concepts of karma and of receivi ng. \n· Practice practical\, effective tools for recognizing and releasing old patterns and expectations (karma).\n\n\nCost: $25 per class (2 classes ). \n\nPlease set your intention to arrive at least 15 minutes early to al low for a prompt start. There is a lot of material to explore.\n\n **********************************\ n\nDuring a near-death experience\, David Park fully realized the profoundn ess of letting go and living in joy.

The very first national & #8220\;Thanksgiving Day\,”\; established on November 26\, 1789\, was c reated by George Washington for “\;giving thanks”\; for the U.S. Constitution.\nMuch has happened since that first Thanksgiving.\nOur form o f government has changed.\nToday if you ask the question:\n"What is the pur pose of government?"\nMost politicians in America today will say something like: \nThe purpose of Government is to provide a level playing field \nThe purpose of Government is to make everybody safe \nThe purpose of Governmen t is to maintain the infrastructure \nThe purpose of Government is to take care of people who can’\;t take care of themselves \nThese common answ ers to this question involve some degree or other of a socialist sentiment. \nLet’\;s compare this to what Thomas Jefferson said the purpose of g overnment is. He said\, “\;To secure these rights\, governments are in stituted among men\, deriving their just power from the consent of the gove rned.”\; \nSo\, the purpose of government is to protect God-given ri ghts. \nThe sad truth is that most elected and most appointed officials tod ay think that the purpose of government is to redistribute wealth -- your w ealth. \nIt has to be your wealth because the U.S. Government doesn’\; t have any wealth. In fact\, our federal government is broke. Actually it&# 8217\;s worse than broke. It’\;s trillions of dollars in debt. And it ’\;s getting worse and our leaders don’\;t care. At least if you judge how much they care by their commitment to do something about it. \nOu r foundations have been destroyed because our leaders have forsaken the tr ue purpose of government and the true source of law and liberty. Both major parties have adopted the presuppositions of socialism and they have abando ned the presuppositions of America. The major parties do not represent th e ideas and principles upon which our country was founded. They have thus broken covenant with the American people. \nThis is why our federal bureauc racies have parasitically devoured the resources and the liberty of a peopl e to whom they are pledged to be accountable. This is why the federal court s have forsaken the rule of law and rule illegally and unconstitutionally b y the fiat of judicial oligarchs who have been methodically eliminating all acknowledgment and memory of our Christian history and heritage. \nEven no w\, the foundations are being destroyed by blatant attacks on the right of the people to acknowledge the God upon whom our nation was founded. \nWhat we must do\, however\, is learn our history and learn from it. \nIn short\ , we are called to honor the Sovereignty of God –\; defend the America n Family –\; and Restore the American Republic. \nWe’\;ve been in doctrinated so that we ask\, “\;What does God have to do with governme nt?”\; \nWell\, this question would have been easily answered by our f ounders. They understood the connection between the two. \nFor example\, in his October 3\, 1789 Thanksgiving Proclamation\, George Washington\, the f ather of our country\, said “\;It is the duty of all nations to acknow ledge the providence of Almighty God\, to obey His will\, to be grateful fo r His benefits\, and humbly to implore His protection and favor.”\; \ nI never thought I’\;d see the day in America when any judge would tel l any state official that He could not acknowledge the sovereignty of the G od of the Bible and attribute to Him our religious freedom. But this is exa ctly what U.S. District Court Judge Myron Thompson told Alabama Supreme Cou rt Chief Justice Roy Moore he could not do! \nMillions of Americans have n o idea that the form of government our founders bequeathed us was not a dem ocracy but a Constitutional –\; Representative -- A lot more dangerous –\; is the obvious fact that most of those running the three branches of our national government –\; both Democrats and Republicans –\ ; do not care that our founders gave us a Constitutional –\; Represent ative –\; Republic. \nIdeas and principles which we fail to advocate in the political arena are lost to history. The principle of liberty under law must not suffer that fate.

It's been said that the body is m erely that part of the soul or spirit that is plainly visible and tangible. Everything that we experience and grow from has an effect on the body. E very experience leaves traces. They may be subtle\, but they are real and they accumulate.\n\nSo the more we feel anger\, the easier it is for us to feel anger. The more we feel peaceful\, the more easily we can revisit pea ce - even in a chaotic world. Beyond that\, there are many benefits of hav ing a calm center. Better health\, more clarity\, and a greater sense of e ase are just a few.\n\nJoin us as we explore various techniques drawn from Kriya yoga\, tantra\, and shamanism. This is an on-going group that is als o open to newcomers. We combine group discussion of triumphs and challenge s and different techniques with active exploration of meditation and yoga.\ n\nAll are welcome. Yoga mats are not necessary. Comfortable clothing suit able for bending and stretching is recommended. Come create together and s hare in the warmth\, welcome\, and wisdom.\n\nRecommended minimum donation: $10.\n\n-------------------------\n\nDuring a near-death experience\, Dav id Park realized the profoundness of letting go and living in joy. Since th at time\, he has dedicated himself to realizing the power and simplicity of this vision\, both in his own life and as a path to helping others and hea ling the planet. David draws from many traditions\, including Intuitive Pra nic Healing\, Kriya Yoga and meditation\, and shamanism. As a teacher\, wri ter\, and personal success coach\, he helps others to overcome blocks to gr eater success and joy.\n\nPittsburgh\, PA 15217 - USA\n\nWednesday\, Novem ber 18 at 7:00 PM\n\nPhoto: http://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/c/ 0/0/7/event_8689159.jpeg\n\nAttending: 4\n\nDetails: http://www.meetup.com/ The-Pittsburgh-Metaphysics-Meetup-Group/calendar/11774174/ LAST-MODIFIED:20091102T212105Z UID:event_11774174@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20091102T212105Z DTSTAMP:20091108T050314Z DTSTART:20091119T000000Z DTEND:20091119T020000Z GEO:40.43;-79.92 LOCATION:David and Mia's Place - 6215 Monitor St - Pittsburgh\, PA 15217 - USA URL:http://www.meetup.com/The-Pittsburgh-Metaphysics-Meetup-Group/calendar/ 11774174/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
