Seattle >Special Trade Contractors > Evan Conklin Plumbing & Htg
116 N 36th St, Seattle, WA | Directions 9810347.651892 -122.371588
Neighborhoods: Magnolia - Queen Anne, North Queen Anne, Magnolia / Queen Anne
Evan Conklin and crew are rare today – Evan Conklin Plumbing and Heating is a rare bird around here (Queen Anne). I called at least 6 plumbing companies and tried to get some idea how much it cost to get a faucet leak looked at and repaired in my home.
Nobody but Evan Conklin would even discuss the estimated cost with me on the phone.
Evan was the only one that told me what his labor rate was and how long most leaks take to fix. As it turned out it it took 30 minutes and cost me under $100.00.
I had the plumber (Anthony - a really nice guy) take a look at the boiler in my basement while he was there and he advised me to how to safety check it and flush it.
Evan and Anthony were both exceptionally knowledgeable and professional. I have my plumbers!
This company is a neighborhood jewel.
I Found a Good Plumber! – I called at least 8 plumbers off the internet directories and couldn't get an idea of how much they would charge me from any of them until after they came out.
Evan Conklin was very helpful when I called and estimated the cost to fix my leak at under $100. The bill came out to $$79.25 - less than he estimated.
The plumber (Anthony) was great. I know I can trust this company after using them for this little project. They were informative and polite.
They are my plumbers from now on.
Evan Conklin Plumbing is GREAT – I hired this company upon a friend's recommendation - and it was a good one.
We had a blockage and called one of the plumbing companies with a big ad in the phonebook. Unfortunately, the guy that came out told me that I would have to replace the sewer pipe for $12000 after running a snake. I told him I would think about it and called my neighbor for advice. He told me that Evan Conklin was the only plumber he would trust here in town and to give him a call.
Evan sent Anthony out and he determined that I had a slight "belly"? in the outgoing pipe but that it was close to the house and could be fixed in 3 hours as it was not more than three feet deep. He dug it up and replaced about 5 feet of pipe.The bill was $925.00!!!!!
Thanks Evan and Anthony for being honest real plumbers . (Shame on that other company....)
I am telling everybody - This company is the only one to call with so many shysters out there.
Evan Conklin Plumbing is the best I think – Evan Conklin Plumbing was referred to me by my neighbor after I was given a very high price quote from a large plumbing company here in Seattle to replace the pipes in my house.
I liked the fact that when I called I could speak to the owner about my project on the phone. The other company charged me a fee just to come out and then they gave me less information than Evan gave me for free.
Evan Conklin gave me a quote that was significantly less - 60 % less! They told me that the difference in the price quote was because they don't pay the plumbers on commission but the other shop did. I never heard of such a thing! Nobody needs a plumber working on commission.
I also liked the fact that when I gave them the job they showed up as promised and did the job with two plumbers on time. They were knowledgeable, friendly and they cleaned up after themselves.
It doesn't get any better than that.
Solid plumber, great integrity – I've used Evan Conklin plumbing for a variety of jobs around my house including clearing a blockage in my main sewer line and installation of a new hot water heater.
A couple months ago, I called them to do some preventative maintanence on my main sewer line prior to the rainy winter kicking in. The job took under an hour and required the use of a power snake. The bill was a little higher than I expected so I called Evan and inquired about it. He provided me a thorough and reasonable explanation about the cost and when we hung up, I thought that was the end of it. Much to my surprise, he called me back about a half hour later and said that after he researched the various coupons he had posted on the internet, that they did overcharge me (an innocent oversight) and he would be sending me a partial refund. I was shocked. A tradesman actually refunding money voluntarily even after I had accepted the original explanation! This was unheard of. Not only have I always been happy with their work and staff, now I am an even bigger fan based on their honesty/integrity.
worst most expensive plumber
i had them out to install a gas water heater. they told me 1500 to install it. i ended up paying 3200 and then 1500 for a water heater. after paying these prices youd think that you would at least have professional service. ive had plumbers out three times repairing work from them, after several calls about gas leaks they wouldnt even come out to take care of the problem. this is a company i would never recomend. they are you to scam people who dont know what quality plumbing should be.
Great Seattle Plumber – Really just a straightforward non-complicated job resolution that wasn't hampered by some idiot trying to sell me something I didn't want or need.
I called, they came, it got fixed. Too cool.
Very pleased. Thank You Eva
Evan Conklin Plumbing is a fair, skilled and honest Co. – Anthony came to my house to fix a leak in the basement and unplug my laundry drain. He is very friendly, polite and was very skilled and efficient. He just got right in there and fixed my problems in less time than he estimated. The cost was less than another companies show up charge (which I did not use). Highly recommended.
Excellent plumbing Company – The very very efficient, polite and quite skilled. The bill was much less than quoted by other companies over the phone. I especially liked that I knew exactly how much they were charging me for the first quarter hour including their travel time ($39.95). They only charge for the time actually on the job - I liked that. Very reasonable. I would definitely use them again.
Best plumbing company in Seattle – These guys are great. I have used a lot of plumbing service companies over the years and they are the best. They always show up, they are knowledgable and friendly. They don't flat-rate but only charge for the time they spend on my jobs. (I have rental properties). They deal effectively with the tenants wich is not easy in some cases. Evan Conklin answers the phone and has saved me much time and money wih his free advice and consultations. I highly recommend this company.

Thousands honor Elvis Presley at Graceland vigil
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Elvis Presley fans from around the world made their annual pilgrimage to Graceland on Thursday to pay their respects to the rock n' roll icon with a solemn candlelight vigil on the 36th anniversary of his death.
Thousands of Presley fans carried lit candles as they walked silently through the Mediation Garden at Graceland, Presley's longtime Memphis home. The garden is the location of Presley's grave and also is the spot where his mother, father and grandmother are buried.
Wreaths of flowers and pictures of Presley encircled the grave, while shadows cast by the glowing candles danced along the stone wall surrounding the garden. Soft music played in the mild night, as some in the procession bowed their heads or cried quietly.
Each year, fans of Presley's music and movies come to Memphis for Elvis Week, the weeklong celebration of his life and career. Presley died on Aug. 16, 1977, of a heart attack after battling prescription drug abuse.
The vigil is the highlight of Elvis Week, which this year featured a listening party at Stax Records for the recent release of the three-CD box set "Elvis at Stax." Performances by Presley tribute artists and a screening of the "Aloha from Hawaii" television program from January 1973 are other featured events of the weeklong reunion, which wraps up Saturday.
Police estimated 35,000 people would attend the vigil. Last year, an estimated 75,000 people descended on Graceland for the event. Elvis' ex-wife Priscilla Presley and his daughter Lisa Marie Presley spoke at last year's event, the first time they appeared together at the vigil since it began.
Christine Jeffords made her fifth trip to Graceland with her husband Jon and three other members of a fan club called the Elvis Midwest Mafia, whose members are from Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin. They wore red T-shirts with Presley's image emblazoned on a king of hearts playing card on the front.
The back of their shirts had a quote that gives one reason why fans have made repeated trips to Memphis for Elvis Week and the vigil: "If you have a friend who is an Elvis fan, you have a friend for life."
"Where else can you go where you meet people from year to year who have the same passion?" said Christine Jeffords, a pre-school teacher from Hartford, Wis.
Jeffords, 52, smiles when she talks about buying her first Presley 45, "Let Yourself Go," which she bought as a young teen with money she had saved from babysitting jobs. She said the vigil is a way to remember not only his career, but also his giving personality and ability to make people happy with his music.
"If you were sad or happy or whatever, he was such a big part of your life," Jeffords said. "I always felt in my heart that he was a good person, a beautiful person."
The vigil started as an informal gathering the year after his death. It has blossomed into a major tourist event. Fans begin lining up along the outer wall of Graceland about 12 hours before the vigil, and many will stay until the early morning hours of the next day.
The event also has become an international affair and a tribute to the Tupelo, Miss., native's worldwide popularity, hosting fans from Australia, Brazil, England and Japan and other foreign countries.
Miguel Salinas Caceres, 53, came with other members of a fan club whose members are from Chile. Making his first visit to Graceland, Salinas Caceres recalled making scrapbooks of newspaper article clippings about Presley when he was a teen.
The articles and scrapbooks were a way he and his family followed and learned about Presley because they could not afford a record player or even the records themselves. He said his family used to pay a neighbor who owned a television so that they could watch Presley movies and other TV programs at the neighbors' house.
"For a person who is an Elvis fan and has the chance to come to the place he lived, it's emotional for me," said Salinas Caceres, of Santiago, Chile. "It's hard to believe that I'm here on the street where he walked, the street corners where he stood, the restaurants where he ate."
His fellow fan club member Rodrigo Gandarillas, a native Chilean who now lives in Houston, is on his second visit to Graceland. An Elvis tribute artist himself, the 39-year-old Gandarillas said the vigil is a way to give thanks for the enjoyment Presley has given him.
"The thing that impacts me the most about the vigil is the large amount of people from different countries, different races and different languages who understand 'the King's' musical message," Gandarillas said.

I've read the BFL book and am doing it! However I do have a question. My ultimate goal is to compete in the ToughMudder next summer with my brothers. Right now my endurance is fairly low, mostly because I just don't like to run. Is running for more than twenty minutes going to hurt my training or help it? The ToughMudder is four to five hour thirteen mile event and I just don't see how doing 20 minutes of cardio three times a week is going to get me ready for a thirteen mile event. Any thoughts or tips would be appreciated!
I can speak from personal experience: When I started my first full Challenge this past February, I was barely clocking a total of 1.5 miles on the treadmill during my 20 minutes of cardio. Now, I am at 2.5 miles in the 20 minutes (just started Challenge #2) and when it comes to running outdoors, I can outpace friends who have been running for years.
The 20 minutes DOES work. HIIT cardio puts your body in "active recovery" mode which will do more for endurance, and speed, than longer sessions of steady-state cardio. You are pushing your body into work ranges that usually aren't achieved with regular distance running. After the Challenge, you can look at doing some different HIIT sessions (there are lots of great resources online) or change up your routine, e.g. do 2 days of HIIT and 1 or 2 days of distance running. You have lots of time to train so treat this like the first stage in that process!
Steve, congratulations on making the first step. I PROMISE YOU this will be the best decision you've ever made!! I just completed the Body-for-Life program Jul 1. Cardio is just as important as weight training. I incorporated a lot of different aerobics during my 12 weeks. Anything from boxing, swimming, jump roping, treadmills, ect. I felt it was important throughout my journey to mix things up a bit, so I didn't get bored. After my expierence, I have found that short INTENSE aerobics is waaaay more productive then running for hours on end. Heck, after the first 4-6 weeks, my body told me so! The most effective aerobics workout I found was simply doing wind sprints. 10-15 at a level 10 and your burnt, done. I began this program running a 5.4 40 yard dash. I now run a 4.6 and my legs give before my lungs do. Im lighter on my feet, I have the confidence that I can run and go as far as I want. Endurance, speed, quickness, lungs.. they all go hand and hand. In fact this morning, I woke up on an empty stomach, drank a bottle of water and went out , warmed up with a light jog for 10 minutes and then immiedtley did 15 50 yards sprints and finished it off with a 100 yard dash. This afternoon, the sun was shinning, I had the energy, so I put on the headset and went for a run, well.. that run was prob a level 8 on a treadmill and I went for 50 minutes before I realized where did the time go LOL! I was bouncing around, shadow boxing, smiling, closed mouth. No problem. Throughout the entire program, I NEVER ONCE did aerobics for longer than 20 minutes, NEVER. Something else I noticed when using High Intense Interval Training such as sprints was that it also helped on a mental level. It built INNER STRENGTH, which also carried over into my weight training workouts.. or just handeling everyday situations that arise in life. When you use HIGH INTENSITY during your aerobic workouts, it doesn't just speed up your metabolism, but it keep your metabolic rate increased for hours after. I burn calories all day, even in my sleep. Something else that can't be overlooked is that it's more practical.. it takes 15-20 minutes. Your more likley to stick to it rather than having to do low intensity workouts for long periods of time. Im confident at this very moment that I could 13 miles. Remember to drink plenty of water too. Don't wait until your thirsty either. I litterly chug water aaaall day. the earth's surface is made up 70% water and so is your body. When I didn't drink enough water, I'd cramp, I couldn't break through my workouts or even sometimes finish. You'll get fatigued faster, set your muscles back. A good rule of thumb I followed was 1 ounce per 2 lbs of body weight. If your a coffee drinker like me, maybe it's hot and humid out, whatever the case... your gonna need even more.
I hope this helps. Good luck and I hope you do well in the Tough Mudder. Be persistant, trust the formula they've layed out.. don't do more, just ask yourself "is that the very best 20 minutes" I can do? And that's it!
Thanks guys. I am doing the short high intensity training either on the stationary bike or the elliptical trainer. Go as hard as I can for 20 minutes and then I'm done. I'm also doing the weight training on opposite days. I'm not in bad shape, actually I'm in pretty good shape but doing the ToughMudder means I will have to push myself really hard. I can do it, but I'll be 48 next summer so it will be a challenge. Which is the whole point of doing it, lol.
"Short High Intensity Training"... Hmmm... Better throw another word in there somewhere :-)
I too have been a skeptic of the HIIT method... but at this time... I am no way deviating from the plan... Tweaking here and there... but that is all.
My Advice: Don't use the Stationary or Elliptical... You are not going to get what you need to compete in the Tough Mudder... Use the treadmill and do exactly this.
1) Min 1-2, Incline @ 5, Speed @ 3
2) Min 3, Incline @ 6, Speed @ 3
3) Min 4, Incline @ 7, Speed @ 3
4) Min 5, Incline @ 8, Speed @ 3
5) Min 6, Incline @ 9, Speed @ 3
6) Continue steps 2-5 until you reach minute 20... at minute 20 increase incline to 10 and speed to 4
This is an intense HIIT Hill Climb... It is fantastic... BUT... once a week you need to do a long run if your goal is to be able to run the tough mudder... I know MANY long distance runners... and when they are training, they perform half their max distance once a week.... then as they get closer to the date... they increase to 75%.
Therefore... I suggest a 5 mile run once a week no matter how long it takes you. HIIT is not going to help you build long distance running endurance.
You are going to need to do some long-distance running to prepare for a long-distance run. Long distance running is not really in the BFL program because it can exhaust muscles that you're trying to grow. Most runners in the program do their long runs on free day -- you need to restock carbs and protein fast and during a long run or you risk losing some of the muscle you've been working to gain.
The reason why you need to do some long distance running is twofold; the major reason is simply to learn the signals your body sends you when you are running low on carbs or electrolytes. You aren't familiarized with these by the short workouts in BFL; a 45 minute workout (weights) takes you right to the point where your body's free-floating carbs are exhausted. This is why you aren't supposed to do weights longer than 45 minutes. On a long run, though, you need to start taking carbs in some form at that point. You also need to learn when you need electrolyte salts (ie, what that feels like when you are running low). It's also a good idea to try out the various possibilities for handling these obstacles: you might like pretzels for the carbs, you might want to use sports beans, gu, etc.
I am NOT saying that the BFL program needs more cardio in it. It does not. However, training for a 13 mile run requires something more than the BFL program, in terms of experience and also toughening ligaments for that kind of sustained impact.

The Kreyos tracks your activities, is water-resistant, and has speakerphone capabilities and a snap-out design -- what can't it do?
These meteors deliver more bright, long-lasting fireballs over northern skies during a short peak period than other showers. It's quite a show if you know when to watch.
Waterproof, activity-tracking, and it has a speakerphone: the Kreyos aims to do it all with Android, iOS, and Windows phones.
It's just like an alien invasion movie: amazing video scenes capture a meteor streaking to Earth some 900 miles east of Moscow.
Known for its massive fireballs and displaying more than 100 meteors per hour, the impressive Geminid show is not to be missed.
This annual crowd-pleaser -- one of the most spectacular sky shows you'll ever see -- is about to hit its peak.
This month, a spectacular sight is coming to the nighttime sky. Here's the lowdown on how you can catch a glimpse of the Perseids.

I worked at The Pantry full-time for more than a year
Pros – The organization's flexibility of working with your work -life schedule.
Openess to accept new ideas as well as implementation of those ideas. The company's processes and procedures are outdated and they now realize to remain competive they must incorporate a higher caliber employee.
Overall respectfull work enviroment especially now that a new CEO has arrived.
Cons – The company makes it a practice to under pay/compensate their employees regardless of performance. If you are thinking about becoming a part of this organization negotiate salary, benefits, and vacation upfront.
Software, policy, practices, and procdeures are outdated even though now there are trying to come into the present.
A lot of the managment aren't as knowledgable in their field as they should be.
The company handbook is too open ended. Alot is left to managerial discretion which opens the company to neopotism or favortism issues.
Advice to Senior Management – Fairly compensate your employees to retain your talent versus talented individuals using this organization as a temporary lay over until something better comes along.
Human Resources needs to create a real handbook and don't leave so much up to managerial discretion.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

text: I realize this is an old thread, however I found it very useful for diagnosing and repairing my Korky 528 valve in my 4 year old Toto. I too had an intermittently hissing valve and no apparent leakage which stopped if I shut off the supply valve. I replaced the valve cap after confirming the old cap gasket had failed. It appeared to do the trick...then 2 days later the valve began hissing again. I took it apart, reassembled and it still hissed. I thought I was going to have to replace the whole valve when it occurred to me that it might have something to do with the float. I noticed when I connected the float on the new cap it was very loose compared to the way it fit on the original cap. It's held onto the cap by spring tension of the two plastic hinges on the either side of the float brace. I found that I could affect the valve action dramatically by jiggling the float while it was assembled. I took the float off and (gently) spread the plastic hinges away from the sides so it fit tightly when placed on the valve cap. The valve is now working perfectly. I hope this little tidbit of information helps if someone is still experiencing a leaking valve after replacing the valve cap.

These boots are so pretty. They are exactly what I wanted. They seem very durable and I expect them to last a long time. Well worth the price. October 27, 2013
Nice looking boots I bought these boots to wear to a wedding. They are very comfortable. I had to get a .5 size bigger only because my size was not available at the time of purchase. They wear well with socks and look great! October 16, 2013
Great boots! I love these boots, so cute and comfortable. I have had them for several months and they are still in good condition after a lot of wear. Really good price too. Goes with shorts, dresses and skinny jeans. May 25, 2013
Cute but cheaply made These boots are cute and fit well, but they seem very cheap. The inside lining seemed like it would rip after wearing them once. For the price, I would expect better quality. I decided to return them and buy a better pair from somewhere else for not much more. March 8, 2013
Love these! These are by far my favorite boots! They are super comfortable, even after walking in them all day. They also fit easily onto my bigger calves which is hard to find in a lot of boots. The rhinestones add just the right amount of "girly". Love these, great price for awesome quality. February 17, 2013
Best cowboy boots I bought these boots 5 months ago and they are in perfect condition still. They run very big so definitely order a size down! They are super comfortable, I bought them to wear to the Puyallup fair in WA and after walking around all day my feet never hurt.I love these boots and cannot wait to wear them in the summer with shorts and dresses! January 15, 2013
Lining The lining inside the boot was very loose and pulled away from the boot. Very poorly made. September 4, 2012

Mark Fischer Poetry Award in Telluride
It is difficult
to get the news from poems
yet men die miserably every day
for lack
of what is found there.
--William Carlos Williams
The winner of the 15th annual Mark Fischer Poetry Prize, named for Telluride's much-missed poet and raconteur, will be chosen this Friday, June 14. For the first time, the announcement will be in public. The ceremony takes place from 6-8 p.m. at Arroyo Wine Bar, where the top four finalists – Deb Barr, Kyle Harvey, Tony Saab and Watch reporter Samantha Wright – will all read from their work.
Fischer had a quirky sense of humor and a love of obtuse words, and in that spirit, a description of the contest reads, prizes will be "awarded to entries that best exhibit the qualities of originality, novelty, complex meaning, linguistic skill and wit."
In the Fischer Award tradition, the winner of last year's prize – in this case, Santa Fe poet Wayne Lee, who won for 'Psalm 656' – is the judge of this year's honor.
"It was hard," Lee said of the judging. "I've judged other contests before, and there's usually a clear-cut winner. But these four poems were really close."
Lee was particularly impressed by two things. One, how "meticulously researched" the works were. "I admire factual correctness," he said. "That turned me on." He also admired the "emotional risks" a few poems took. "Some were almost bleeding on the page," he said. "That showed a lot of courage."
Lee will stick around to teach a writing workshop entitled The Music of Poetry this Saturday morning from 9 a.m.-12 p.m., also at Arroyo. It's a subject close to his heart; Lee played violin for 22 years in a Seattle string quartet, and worked as a music critic for the Washington (D.C.) Times, The Seattle Times and other publications. The workshop will explore repetition, syncopation, pace, accent, pauses, dynamics, and other basic building blocks of music to enhance the written and spoken word.
"Music and poetry are essentially intertwined," Lee pointed out, "and if you look back, the great poets, almost without exception – Dylan Thomas, Yeats, Frost, all the Romantics" featured musicality in their work. "In this day and age, most poetry is free verse," he added. But in order to write great free verse, "you must be even more conscious" than you would if you were rhyming of the way every single word, each syllable, affects the perception of a poem. Williams' classic 'The Red Wheelbarrow' is a perfect example of a work in which every word counts. "He has levered that red wheelbarrow into a special tone of attention by sheer torque of insistence," critic Hugh Kenner wrote of the poem. Lee put it more simply: "He uses every beat to inform the meaning."
The Red Wheelbarrow
so much depends
a red wheel
glazed with rain
beside the white
--William Carlos Williams

Trio Solisti in Ridgway
The chamber music trio The New York Times has called "consistently brilliant" returns to this region for its annual summer performances over the next couple of weeks.
Violinist Maria Bachmann, cellist Alexis Pia Gerlach, and pianist Jon Klibinoff will perform as Trio Solisti at the 4-H Events Center in Ridgway on June 23, and as Trio-Solisti-Plus-Special-Musical-Guests in a private home for four performances, beginning June 26, for Telluride MusicFest.
In Ridgway, their concert, sponsored as always by the Ouray County Performing Arts Guild, will include trios by Beethoven, Saint-Saens, and the Czech composer Bedrich Smetana. Beethoven's Trio No. 4 in B Flat Major (Op. 11) is about as close to pop music as the great composer ever got; also known as the Gassenhauer trio, it was apparently composed at the suggestion of a local clarinetist, who asked Beethoven to employ the aria from a very popular opera by Joseph Weigl which had debuted the year before. The piece by Saint-Saens was written when the composer was just 28 years old, and is full of joy, humor and adventure – all the feelings you might expect a young talent to pore into his music. Following the Saint-Saens trio, Trio Solisti will take a break for intermission. Then the emotional heavy lifting of the program begins, when the musicians perform Smetana's Piano Trio in G Minor.
Bedrich Smetana is best known inside his homeland as the father of Czech music. Outside of it, he's best remembered for his opera, The Bartered Bride, and his cycle of tone poems, Ma Vlast (My Fatherland). By 1849, Smetana was 25 years old. He had been awarded the title of Court Pianist in King Ferdinand's Prague Castle. His finances were relatively stable, and he was newly married.
Then it all went to hell.
Over the next few years, the second daughter from his marriage, Gabriela, would die of tuberculosis. His eldest daughter, Bedriska, who had been showing signs of remarkable musical talent, would pass away of scarlet fever. Another daughter, born shortly after the death of daughter no. 2, would soon succumb, as well, and his wife would be diagnosed with tuberculosis.
It sounds like something out of a bad soap opera, but these were the days before antibiotics, and for Smetana it was all agonizingly real. Maybe the work helped see him through. In the middle of it all, within just two months of the precocious Bedriska's passing, he had completed his first chamber music composition, the Piano Trio in G Minor. Chamber music played a very small part in Smetana's overall work, and the intimacy of this particular musical form – a piece for just three instruments – was perhaps an unusual outlet for the composer to turn to in his grief. Yet it served him well, and the Trio in G Minor, turbulent, lovely, and passionate, endures. The work debuted on December 3, 1855 in Prague, with Smetana at the piano. He dedicated it to his musical daughter's memory.
Trio Solisti plays the 4-H Event Center Sunday, June 23 at 7 p.m. To purchase tickets, visit ocpag.org.

Although the film festival is related to the 'Catalan Culture' and 'Catalan Cinema' courses offered by the Catalan Studies Program at UMass, everyone will be welcome to attend and participate in the seven film sessions that will take place during this semester.

Police are looking for an unknown male who attempted to break into a safe at a dollar store in Eastwick.
At 10 p.m. on October 8, as the store at 3000 Island Avenue was closing, the suspect hid inside the storage area until all employees left the store, police say. After the employees had left, the suspect entered the office area and attempted to force open a safe, surveillance shows.
After an unsuccessful attempt, the suspect saw that overnight employees were arriving, so boldly exited through the front door. Surveillance shows him wearing a mask to conceal his face as he walks by the cash register as an employee confusedly looks on.
Police describe the suspect as a black male, 5'6″-5'7″, with a medium complexion, beard and stocky build. He was wearing a white hooded sweatshirt and a red and black plaid wool (hunter style) baseball hat.
If you see this suspect do not approach him, contact 911 immediately or dial 215.686.TIPS (8477) or text a tip to PPD TIP or 773847.
If you have any information about this crime or this suspect, please contact:
Southwest Detectives Division Det. Farrell #996

Hi everyone,I'm a newbie and I'm glad to meet you all
My friends call me Danny,and I'm from Vietnam
First day here and I've already had a problem that I was unable to solve,so I really need your help
The thing is that when I bought the New iPad the shop's owner installed some apps for me.
When I got home, I installed some other apps,and when those apps need to be updated,I clicked the Update button and there was a pop-up window requires password,this is normal,but the account was the shop's owner email not mine. As a result, I had to delete the app I wanted to update and re-install it. It's so inconvenient! Anyone knows how to solve this prob? Please help me and thank you in advance

The True Market Value® (TMV®) price is our exclusive method for calculating what others are paying for a 2013 Subaru Legacy Sedan in Woodbridge, NJ (based on actual sales data from your region).

Review of the 2013 Subaru Legacy
Thanks to standard all-wheel drive and big-car comfort, the 2013 Subaru Legacy is a respectable choice among midsize sedans.
- Safety | Reliability
Standard all-wheel drive; excellent outward visibility; spacious cabin.
Weak base stereo; unimpressive six-cylinder fuel economy and acceleration.

Los Toros has been proudly serving up great Mexican food to the Los Angeles area since 1967. Los Toros provides a fun, upbeat, and family atmosphere with a variety of authentic food and drink selections. Located in Chatsworth, Los Toros is a great place to celebrate any occasion: a family night out, birthday party, sporting event, etc. Come in and try one of our delicious Mexican delicacies and check out our all you can eat Sunday brunch!
It's so loud! Came here for dinner. It's nice that they text us when the table is ready. But...
Don't know where to start. We were seated pretty fast (we were told the waiting time was 20-40 mins). 15mins later, I got the text. So we were seated, our waiter came fairly quickly. We ordered our foods and ice waters.
The table right next to us got their waters (and they arrived the same time as us and were seated the same time as well). Us? No ice waters. We waited, waited, and waited... nothing. I had to ask for waters - again.
So the table right next to us got their foods (and they ordered after us). 15-20 mins later.. no foods for us. I asked our waiter about our foods. He went to the kitchen and came back. He said our foods were almost done.
So minutes later, our foods finally arrived. I took my first bite and oh my.. it was extremely salty! My husband's food was better (still salty but not extremely salty - so still edible). my friend's food was acceptable as well.
Asked the waiter to return my plate, he offered for a replacement, but I just don't want to wait for another 20-30mins for my replacement. The presentation looks good, but the taste is just not right.
i love this place great place to have a drink and meet people i cant complaint one bit like these other people that dont like it but keep going back
What happened here????? – I'm all for second chances but for the fourth time in a row awful, awful, awful service. Had to look for someone to take our order, forget on anyone checking in on how 'we were doing', and then the bill was overcharged by $25.00. It wasn't even busy! I keep going back because yes, the margaritas are excellent and the food is pretty good, but the other places are looking much better these days.
Great Margaritas – Besides a long wait-Great margaritas and ambiance
You have to try the flan
Favorite Weekly Spot – I love this place! From happy hour to just having lunch or dinner. This is the first restaurant I visited on my first night in town and I have been coming back ever since! The margarita's are the best I have ever had and the food is ridiculous! There is also a bar area that is amazing for watching games or just kicking back after a long day.
my - go to place – I have been going into LT for about 20 years, on the weekends I have to wait, like everybody else. So what, I came for the great food, usually the service is prompt. I can live with i t on a weekend. Faster during the week but the quality of food and drink is always to my liking.
My congrats to Nick&Lucia&Alex& all the staff for making me feel welcome & wanting to return, over &over & over again. I think it 's the best place of its kind in Southern California.....
Bad Food Bad Service – food was horrible, service was soooo slow. dark and gringy
Los Toros - gotta love it – We've been regulars at Los Toros for over 20 years - seen a lot of changes, but we still love it. The place has definitely grown, and is often crowded, but Nick and Lucia have done an excellent job of managing that. The carnitas is still the best around (I make a point of comparing it at every Mexican joint I go to), the bean dip is unrivaled, and the atmosphere is simply the best (how many restaurants in LA can you actually get lost in?). When I have guests in from out of town, the first place they want to go is Los Toros. It's like a mini-trip to Mexico. How many corporate-owned chains are like that?
Not for the Faint of Heart! – Good food and drink in a rollicking restaurant! This place is truly family friendly so bring the kids. And remember, LT is well loved by many patrons every night of the week, so tell everyone in your group to show up on time. Parking is a breeze with the complimentary valet. My finicky eater kids love to eat here - especially the Chile Colorado. Go once and you too will be hooked.
Great Mexican food! – We've been going there for years and always enjoy the atmosphere and food. The most recent visit was exceptionally enjoyable since we took out-of-town friends and they fell in love with the place. Although I don't drink Margaritas, everyone else in our group raved about them. The food was out of this world and enjoyed by all.
This is a happy place that is relaxing and rewarding. I highly recommend it. Bravo, Los Toros!

Fat Joe – If It Ain't About Money Lyrics
{*Trey Songz harmonizing until 00:21*}
[Intro: Trey Songz] + (Fat Joe)
(Uhh) YUP~!
(Uhh) YUP~!
(Uhh) YUP~! (Uhh)
[Fat Joe]
Wrist on froze, thanks to the stove
Mattress financial, bank's never closed
Monday to Sunday, serve all addicts
Joey Van Gundy, watch me work the +Magic+
Uhh, and I ain't talkin' NBA
I ain't even trust the brethren, jealous ones still envy me
Problem is, these guys ain't even half what they pretend to be
Cold Don, now look at all the shots that they keep sendin' me
And your girl the best, she fulfillin' all my fantasies
She drip, drip, drippin' all up in the Drophead Phantom seats
Now pop your bottles, blow your cush, fuck what your man say
Cause you know we don't give a fuck, we let the pan play
[Hook: Trey Songz]
If it ain't about, mo-ney, why, we, wast-in', time?
(And tell her that) mo-ney's, all, that's, on, my, mind
You can believe that, I'll be where the cheese at
Wrist on froze, better get your ho (C'MERE!!)
Pocket full of paper, so these haters can't stand me
Ballin' like the Lakers, keep +Heat+ like Miami
And she killin' in them jeans, "Baby, won't you take 'em off for me?"
She said she a boss, she ain't talkin'
If it ain't about, mo-ney, why, we, wast-in', time? (YUP~!!)
[Fat Joe]
Neck on froze, thanks to the hoes
Pussy never plummet, pimp 'til I'm gone
Powder white work, let's get this shit poppin'
And fuck the police, like them niggas out in Compton
Aah, we too fly for our own good
And you can see the sky shinin' on the chrome hood
And you can smell that money right off the Lou Vuitton
Self-made millionaire right from the Bronx
On my way to Cali, Kobe, he playin' LeBron
Drop 50 stacks, tell my niggas "Pay the bar"
Stop trippin', that pussy got a nigga hard
And the Am-Ex card blacker than my nigga 'Kon
[Hook] - 2X - minus first two lines the second time
Edit song description to add:
- Historical context: what album the song's on, how popular it was
- An explanation of the song's overall story (example: "In this song, Eminem corresponds with a crazed fan who ends up...")
- The sample used for the beat — use WhoSampled.com and wikipedia as references

Access Grid
Interactive Group-to-Group Collaboration
The Access Grid infrastructure creates a collaborative environment designed to provide seamless, interactive group-to-group collaborations among groups that are not co-located. This enables a rich set of interactions to occur by utilizing streaming media, providing a semi-immersive environment in which the technology fades into the background. Designed to be always on, instantaneous interactions occur across widely distributed sites. In order to effectively interact across the Access Grid, users are best served by Access Grid Nodes conforming to a minimum set of standards to provide the seamless semi-immersive environment.
The Access Grid provides a group-to-group collaboration environment with unique features including resources provided via a spatial metaphor and the virtual collaboration spaces are persistent. The architecture is open, extensible, scalable, and leverages established standards. The Access Grid is made up into three major parts, Virtual Venues Services, Access Grid Nodes, and Access Grid Network Services. The Venues Services provide navigation, discovery and security for resources. Access Grid Nodes are spaces that are designed to provide comfortable, high fidelity, natural interactions with Access Grid resources. Access Grid Network Services provide capabilities such as venue recording, stream processing, and bridging between the Access Grid and other collaboration systems. Applications can use this infrastructure to provide groups to share data, computing resources, and applications among widely distributed participants.
The intent of the Access Grid is to enable groups of collaborators to increase productivity by reducing the work involved in finding expert resources, people, publications, source code, data and computing resources. The Access Grid is also used for classroom lectures, training, invited talks, and collaborative activities such as strategy and management meetings.

Social Media - Personal,
Professional, or Both?
Social Media in the Workplace
Handling social media networks in the workplace and out of the workplace
Social media is a constantly evolving force to be reckoned with in the workplace. Networks like Myspace, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+, and YouTube have astronomical amounts of users that grow by the day. Social media has allowed companies to get plugged in to potential new customers as well as engage current clients and promote their brand. However, there is enormous potential for one bad tweet or post to damage the reputation of the business.
Creating a social media policy can help prevent devastating content from being generated about an employer and employees no longer have to be in the dark about this rapidly increasing trend and are aware of the company's boundaries and expectations. By working together and embracing social media, employers can utilize their valued workforce to respond to negative content and come up with ways to promote the image of the company.
To help, the Department has created some tips for employers and employees surrounding this issue. Please note: these guidelines have not been tested in the courts and the area is continuing to develop.
Tips for Employers
- Engage your employees and gather feedback on their use of social media sites – at work and home.
- Develop a social media policy. Policies should be carefully tailored to serve a legitimate business interest rather than broad and general.
- Train management and employees on the policy.
- Offer training and have "certified" social media representatives who you trust to represent you – they can monitor discussions about your product or services and can offer personal assistance to anyone who might be having issues.
- Most importantly, learn more about it. Don't get left behind. Social media, when monitored and used appropriately, can be a great way to promote your company or organization.
Tips for Employees:
- Think twice before "sending a friend request" to your boss.
- Reconsider posting negative comments/confidential information about your work Statements made on social media sites are a reflection of you as a person. While expressing your anger publicly may feel good in the heat of the moment, you should think twice—you never know if other employers are looking at you as a potential hire. Employees should also refrain from discussing or displaying:
- information that is confidential or proprietary
- information that may be valuable to a competitor including specific product information or pricing; embargoed information such as launch dates, release dates, and pending reorganizations; and intellectual property such as drawings and/or designs, software, ideas, and innovation
- Be familiar with your company's social media policy. You are responsible for knowing your employer's stance on using social media during working hours. Understand that if you access social networking sites on company equipment, you have implicitly authorized your employer to access that content as part of its normal systems monitoring.
