Historic Harmony
If you like history and log cabins then an afternoon drive to the historic town of Harmony might be right up your alley. There are numerous log cabins to visit, along with the Harmony museum, and both a Harmonist and Mennonite cemetery. The annual Zelienople-Harmony Country Fall Festival is set for this weekend, October 10-11, with arts, crafts, horse drawn buggy rides, homemade country foods, historic encampments, antiques and collectibles, and an authentic German dinner. The fall color out that way is just starting to develop, so you might also want to take a drive along nearby PA SR 108 between New Castle and Slippery Rock. The Log Cabin Inn makes a great stop for lunch before heading out! Historic Harmony originally appeared on About.com Pittsburgh on Friday, October 9th, 2009 at 12:52:44.
In 1803, Georg Rapp, the leader of a German Lutheran separatist group, came to America and purchased 5,000 acres of land near Pittsburgh where he had his followers could begin a new life free of religous restrictions. The next year, three shiploads of his followers arrived in America and erected nine log cabins to begin the famed communal Harmony Society. After that first hard winter, the hardworking Harmonists got right back to work, clearing 150 acres and building 50 houses, a grist mill, a large barn and some shops. After only 10 years the Harmonists moved on to start a bigger community in Illinois (they later returned to Pittsburgh to establish a new community called Economy), and sold the entire town of Harmony plus about 9,000 acres to Mennonite Abraham Ziegler for $100,000. He and other Mennonite families led the area's resettlement.
Fabulous Fall Foliage in the Allegheny National Forest
More Fabulous Fall Foliage: Fabulous Fall Foliage in the Allegheny National Forest originally appeared on About.com Pittsburgh on Tuesday, October 6th, 2009 at 09:24:00.
Peak fall colors are coming a little early this year in the Allegheny National Forest in northwestern Pennsylvania, with hillsides full of bright oranges, yellows, reds and various shades of green expected to greet visitors over the long Columbus Day weekend. Located just two hours north of Pittsburgh, the Allegheny National Forest is a mecca for recreation enthusiasts with miles of hiking and biking trails, meandering trout streams, rivers for canoeing and kayaking, and scenic drives and overlooks for those who like to sit back, relax and soak in the view. The Allegheny Reservoir is especially beautiful in the fall, as are the beautiful forests that line the winding Longhouse National Scenic Byway.

Pittsburgh is Calm After Yesterday's G-20 Riots
Despite the fact that the Pittsburgh G-20 Resistance Project has been encouraging civil disobedience -- an "everywhere protest" -- at over 100 locations around the city this morning, little appears to have occurred. Police said there haven't been any reports of large gatherings or vandalism. A few protest groups did gather, at Forbes Avenue and Atwood Street in Oakland, as well as in East Liberty, but there appears to have been no major violence or damage. This follows a fairly contentious Thursday, where protesters filled the streets of Lawrenceville and Bloomfield and attempted to march toward the convention center where the G-20 is being held. The group had not obtained a permit for the march, and were turned back by police in riot gear. The protests resulted in at least 66 arrests and about 19 businesses with broken windows or other damage according to The New York Times.

While I personally feel the Pittsburgh G-20 Summit is a positive step toward achieving world economic growth, I completely understand that people have their own agendas and messages to get across. At least activist groups such as Greenpeace who rappelled from the West End bridge on Wednesday with a banner denouncing climate change chose to protest with a specific message, and in such a manner that noone and nothing got hurt (although they did break a few laws). But what message does a protest such as the "everywhere protest," which encourage mobs and vandalism, convey to our world leaders? People have come from all over the country to participate in these protests. What do they hope to gain?

Why Pittsburgh?
When Pittsburgh was first announced as the venue for this week's G-20 Summit, the White House press corps broke out laughing. Why Pittsburgh? Pittsburgh is not exactly a city accustomed to hosting globally important events and the hefty security burden which accompanies them. It's only the second noncapital city to host such an event, after Montreal in 2000. And Pittsburgh is nowhere near the size of Montreal. The official reason given by President Barack Obama is to highlight the way Pittsburgh has "transformed itself from the city of steel to a center for high-tech innovation -- including green technology, education and training, and research and development." "It's an area that has seen its share of economic woes in the past, but because of foresight and investment, is now renewed - giving birth to renewed industries that are creating the jobs of the future," said White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs. The Pittsburgh success story isn't all hype either. Pittsburgh consistently ranks well in surveys as a desirable place to live; the Economist Intelligence Unit this year called it America's most "livable" city. It has low unemployment, a wide variety of good colleges and universities, and reasonable house prices that have generally avoided the worst of the housing bust. Unemployment and foreclosure rates are below the national average. And the smoky, steel city once described as "hell with the lid off," is now an "eds and meds" (hospitals & universities) powerhouse, as well as a pioneer in green technology. Despite Pittsburgh's smaller size, it ranks eighth in the nation for the number of LEED-certified green buildings.
