Social media reacts to FSU's 16-10 win over Pittsburgh

For the second time in seven days, the Florida State Seminoles have won a road game. FSU beat the Pittsburgh Panthers 16-10 on Friday night in Acrisure Stadium, improving to 2-0 under interim head coach Rick Stickstoll. Ernie Sims continues to elevate the defense, which once again ended the game with a turnover on downs. FSU improved to 5-5 with the win and is one win away from making a bowl game for the first time since 2023. The Seminoles had to work to beat the Panthers, who outgained them 306-260. Pittsburgh was unable to overcome its own mistakes, committing seven penalties for 70 yards, turning it over once, and going 6-19 on third and fourth down. FSU's defense was able to capitalize on the miscues, holding them to just 4.3 yards per play and giving up set three points in the second half. The win had FSU fans fired up, with them flocking to social media to celebrate back-to-back road wins and praising the work Stockstill and Sims have done since taking over. Here is a look at how FSU fans reacted to the win. FSU beats Pittsburgh Bringing home a W from the Steel City! #NoleFamily pic.twitter.com/scDhtIJg2h —

Is it Legal? Pittsburgh limits how many dogs and cats you can keep

Pittsburghers with a house full of furry friends may want to count how many paws are under their roof. City law generally prohibits a person from owning, harboring or maintaining more than five dogs or cats, or any combination of the two, within Pittsburgh. That means a household could have five dogs, five cats or a mix such as three cats and two dogs. A sixth dog or cat would generally put the household over the limit. The restriction applies specifically to dogs and cats, making descriptions of the ordinance as a broad “five-pet limit” potentially misleading. Pittsburgh Animal Care and Control provides information for pet owners and the city's requirements at pittsburghpa.gov . When Pittsburgh allows more than five dogs or cats The city provides exceptions to the five-animal limit. Residents who foster dogs or cats and help place them in permanent homes can keep more than five if they obtain an exemption permit from Pittsburgh Animal Care and Control. Permitted kennels and catteries also are exempt from the limit. The exception extends to kennels registered with the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture. Sign up: Don’t wait for tomorrow.

How Allegheny County property taxes are calculated

Allegheny County homeowners can better understand their property tax bills by knowing how assessed values, millage rates and payment deadlines determine what they owe. Property tax bills rely on several figures. The calculation begins with a property's assessed value, which is used with a millage rate to determine the tax owed. Homeowners may see more than one millage rate because Allegheny County, municipalities and school districts can each establish their own rates. Those separate taxes contribute to a property's overall tax burden. Allegheny County property tax payment deadlines Payment timing can affect how much a homeowner owes. For Allegheny County real estate taxes, taxpayers received a 2% discount for paying by March 31. The face amount was due April 30. After that deadline, the county applies a one-time 5% penalty, then 1% interest for each month the bill remains unpaid. Those dates apply to county real estate taxes and should not automatically be used for every property tax bill. Municipalities and school districts can have different collection schedules. How reassessment could affect property taxes Property reassessment adds another factor for Allegheny County homeowners to watch. The county has been using 2012 base-year property values, but a court has ordered a
