Setting an Example of Dedication
What if your workday began at 7:00 am and didn’t end until 10:30 pm? Most would say, “No one could survive that schedule.” Yet for the past two fall seasons, this scenario has been the regular Friday routine for Mr. Eric Kostic, principal of Saltsburg Middle High School. Why such long hours?

Our Local Heritage
Vandergrift Museum Offers Peek Into Past
It may always be a work in progress, due to efforts of its director, Beth Caporali, and all the volunteers that have poured hours of labor into the project—I doubt they will ever give up extending the museum’s artifacts. But the museum has come a long way since its humble beginnings in a closet in the Casino.

Veterans of Freedom
Finding Justice for Merchant Mariners
Mark S. Gleeson of Oakmont not only served in World War II as a Merchant Marine, but he has fought for justice in recognizing Merchant Mariners as veterans. Unfortunately, many today are unaware of the extensive Merchant Marine war service to the United States.

Healthy Eating
Chunky Tomato Soup
Soups are very nutritious and great for warming up in the winter. Try this chunky style tomato soup. The protein is supplied by the turkey. The best thing is it is low in saturated fat.

Healthy Eating
Vegetable Lasagna
Lasagna is a favorite of many. Traditional recipes are very delicious. Along with that great taste comes the high calories and heavy feeling after devouring. Try this meatless healthier version of vegetable lasagna. Your waste line will thank you for it and so might a friend if you surprise them with it.

Natural Expression Highlighted by Jim Kuhn Photography
Jim Kuhn is very passionate about photography. “When someone walks through my door, I treat them the best I can. I take care of them,” he says. “It’s not about me,” he went on, “it’s all about you.” It is this interest in his customers that puts them at ease to create natural expressions when they are photographed.

Alle-Kiski Churches
A Community Church – Faith United Methodist
One thing is sure: Faith UMC is a growing and vibrant community oriented church. It is buzzing with activity every day serving God and community. Reflecting the community, the congregation is made up of young and middle-age families that are very involved in many of the church programs. Pastor Wagner says, “They are very open, very caring and do their best to be a witness for Christ in the community”.

A-K Dining
New Chinese Restaurant A Delight
Shanghai Tokyo Chinese Restaurant & Sushi Bar has recently opened in Sarver and it is already a big hit. My wife and a friend accompanied me for a Friday night visit.

A-K Dining
New Chinese Restaurant A Delight
Located on Route 356 in a small shopping strip (next to National City Bank), my very first impression of Shanghai Tokyo was the great atmosphere. Most Chinese restaurants decorate the same way, but Shanghai Tokyo has used striking colors to create a delightful ambiance that creates a whole different feel. The table settings and furnishings round out the comfortable setting.
