Walnut Capital helping East Liberty go green
Posted by Walnut Capital on 10:00 AM
Kevin Driscoll has no physical infirmity, and he obviously never will be pregnant.
But when Driscoll visits Bakery Square in East Liberty, he quickly can grab a designated parking space that would get most people towed if they took it. Such are the benefits of driving a "green" vehicle.
"It's kind of a nice reward," said Driscoll, 44, an information technology consultant from McCandless who has owned a hybrid Toyota Prius for the past five years.

We want to wish all our fans a Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Check out the link below for some fun St. Patricks’s Day facts:
St. Patrick’s Day is observed on March 17 because that is the feast day of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. It is believed that he died on March 17 in the year 461 AD. It is also a worldwide celebration of Irish culture and history. St. Patrick’s Day is a national holiday in Ireland, and a provincial holiday in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
The actual color of St. Patrick is blue. Green became associated with St. Patrick's Day during the 19th century. Green, in Irish legends, was worn by fairies and immortals, and also by people to encourage their crops to grow.

Daylight Savings Time Begins on March 13
Posted by Walnut Capital on 10:00 AM
Daylight savings time is coming up this weekend. Don’t forget to set your clocks forward!
Every year, daylight savings time seems to take people by surprise. In the United States, daylight savings time begins on March 13 at 2 a.m. local time except in parts of Arizona and Hawaii. As the popular saying goes, clocks need to "spring forward" to observe the change. In other words, clocks need to be set ahead by one hour when the clock strikes 2 a.m.
