> Both spots are welcoming to kids.
Great for when kids are running underneath the dartboard.
Or were, I think they canned that.

The Jim is a hilariously incestuous industry bar. I saw like 8 of my local bartenders there.
Good place to catch some free drinks if you tip well elsewhere.

Noche looks overpriced as all hell. $6 for still water.
Vast majority of cocktails $18-$22
Just doesn’t seem worth it

To be fair, it's titled "where we're drinking right now", not "what's best right now". It's philly mag, they have no qualms about style over substance...

They aren't kidding about grace & proper being packed. I had an unexpected couple of hours to myself yesterday and was riding by shortly before 5, so I tried to stop by there for a drink, and they couldn't have crammed one more person in there.
So I kept going south on 8th and went to the jim, and it was as dark and pleasant as it has been since basically the day it opened.

Try Septa (or don’t if Standard Tap isn’t that important to you).

As far as I know - Not in some cases, in all cases the preliminary hearing happens first, usually several hours after being charged and arrested. Literally the first thing that happens after they arrest you is put you in front of a judge and the DA and they set or deny your bail...

Maybe the neighborhood will attract more people who don’t have cars.

I think they meant to imply, there's not some sort of hearing AFTER you post bail. If the DA felt like they were too dangerous to get bail, they had ample time to make that case.

"Max", as used in PA, just means the highest minimum part of a sentence. And judges have to set both a minimum and maximum, with the minimum being no more than half the maximum. So, 20-40 just means the minimum a defendant has to serve is 20, with parole possible for the next 20 years. A 20-30 year sentence is illegal, while a 15-40 is possible. It's really weird.
And then, if convicted with a 2nd or subsequent 3rd degree murder charge, you get mandatory life!
So, don't kill people. It makes for complicated maths.

3rd degree is a max of 20-40 years I believe.

And so attracting more people with cars to your neighborhood that is already congested is a good idea?

They're trying to create controversy to gain more funding/ notoriety
It's disgusting

Two robbers is pretty bad, and I think that's why they somehow didn't manage to make it on this list despite the fairly limited choices.

> I dunno, is a 14 year old that much of a flight risk?
Did they ever catch the first identified teen in the roxborough shooting?
