After an amicable divorce two years ago, JL Knapschaefer was ready to get back into Pittsburgh’s dating scene.
Knapschaefer, 38, had been with her husband for more than a decade, so dating had changed a bit since the last time she was looking for love. But, eager to meet people, she started going out regularly, and joined the most popular dating apps.
“My very first time online dating, I started talking to this guy who was an investment banker, and he seemed very intelligent,” she says.
The two started texting, casually getting to know each other before making plans to m ..read more

RON DONOUGHE | PHOTO BY HUCK BEARD
As a painter of Pittsburgh, Ron Donoughe is in a hurry.
Painting is not often thought of as a rushed art form, but Donoughe, 65, knows Pittsburgh, and he knows how much it’s in flux.
“I feel compelled to get as much down as I can in my lifetime,” he says. “I love Pittsburgh, but I do worry that it’s losing its grit. That is something that I’m still trying to document before it changes, before it gets too pretty.”
Donoughe has captured the region in six books and numerous exhibitions and as an artist/scholar-in-residence at Fallingwater. His latest series a ..read more

For a week, the eyes of the city were fixed on the Duquesne Dukes — for the first time in a while.
When the men’s basketball team suited up for their opening-round contest with Brigham Young last Thursday, it was the first March Madness appearance for the Dukes since 1977. When they won that game, it was Duquesne’s first tournament victory since 1969. The women’s team has a similarly sparse postseason resume, with only one appearance logged since their 1974 founding.
The Dukes, for the most part, have been the afterthought of an af ..read more

Taylor had a feeling there may be another celebration on the horizon and finished up a nail appointment just before meeting Alex at the restaurant.

For Rafael Migoyo, president of the Cuban art platform Del Caiman, the environment is an important part of presenting artwork.
