Thanks for Sharing W

E’VE BEEN RECEIVING SOME great responses to our callout for recollections and comments on the 35th anniversary of this publication, formerly The Whoot! We are encouraging all of our long-time and new readers to share their thoughts about the paper, any special memories, clippings, etc., by sending an e-mail to editor@acweekly.com. Keep ‘em coming; we’d love to share your thoughts in our upcoming 35th anniversary issue. Below are some of the more interesting comments we’ve received on our Web site recently. Relaunched this past summer, the new acweekly.com continues to grow and expand its offerings. Likewise, more and more readers are leaving comments. Don’t be shy; visit acweekly.com and type away, submit video/multimedia or ask a columnist a question pertaining to a specific article. Note: The comments below may have been modified for clarity and space.

On “Pinky’s Corner� column on Boardwalk bike riding: “This is not a good idea. Rules and bike lanes should be set up first. As a casino patron I have had many problems with people riding bikes and weaving in and out of patrons’ [paths] walking the Boardwalk between casinos. With no rules or bike lanes — Anonymous what a mess!� On the “Bronx Bomber� article by Lori Hoffman: “We enjoyed seeing A Bronx Tale at Harrah’s in Atlantic City. It brought back the wonderful memories of working on the set of the movie. My cars were the ’56 & ’57 Chevys

used in the various scenes.�

— Larry & Lynn, Whitestone Queens

On “Pinky’s Corner� column on upgrading A.C.’s traffic lights: “Pinky, You have called for better traffic control for at least 10 years and no progress yet. The government wasted so much money on less important projects, but this very important project was allowed to sit with many other important projects. A new active city government may be the real change Atlantic City needs.� — Fred Walker On “This Week� column from 10/8/09 issue: “Hmmm... in the ’80s it was widely acknowledged that Madonna was entertaining but wasn’t much of a singer. That couldn’t be further from the truth when describing Kelly Clarkson, who may possess The Voice of her generation. You couldn’t find two more different “entertainers,� I would say. Kelly is also so down-to-earth and gosh-darn nice; if she nixed an interview with ACW, you may be sure to blame her hectic schedule rather than any sort of Diva tendency.� — Be Real

PINKY’S CORNER

Dune Issue Still Alive T By Pinky Kravitz

HANKS TO THE COOPERATION OF SENATOR Jim Whelan and Assemblymen John Amadeo and Vince Polistina, the acting commissioner of the Department of Environmental Protection, Mark Mauriello, has consented to attend a meeting with the Boardwalk Committee’s Dune Committee on Tuesday, Oct. 20, in Boardwalk Hall. The legislators representing Atlantic County had written to the commissioner about the issue of the growth of the dunes since they were installed. In his letter to them, Mauriello said, “Although I cannot agree with the recommendation of the Boardwalk Committee, I am available to discuss the matter with [them].” We requested the opportunity to explain our view of the issue and we are delighted to be able to talk directly with the commissioner and then take a walk on the Boardwalk to show him the effect of the dune growth on those strolling on the boards and the safety issues it has created. The meeting is only open for the commissioner and his staff, the Boardwalk Committee’s Dune Committee, the legislators and representatives of Atlantic City and Atlantic County. The results of our meeting will be in next week’s column.

For the past several years, there has been a dream about the establishment of an Aviation Research and Technology Park, adjacent to the Federal Aviation Technical Center. I’m happy to inform you that the dream will become a reality at 11am, on Monday, Oct. 19, with the groundbreaking of the first building to be constructed on that site. It will take place at the Midland Hanger No. 3, at the Atlantic City International Airport. According to a press release, the park will be a high-technology aviation facility that provides the opportunity for FAA’s partners to perform research, development, testing integration and verification of NextGen technologies. The Aviation Park will enable private firms to enter into agreements with the FAA to engage in research projects, with access to stateof-the-art federal laboratories. The Aviation Research and Technolgy Park, Inc., a non-profit corporation, engaged a nationally recognized consulting team to undertake an independent feasibility study. The study concluded that the site can accommodate 400,000 square feet of lab and support space. More than 2,000 new, high-skilled jobs will be created, adding to the existing labor force of 3,000 at or in support of the Tech Center. It is nice to know that the dream of this project will become a reality with the groundbreaking of the first of what may be seven buildings in the complex. It will bring to our area major aviation firms that will help plan and execute the next generation of the aviation industry. The Aviation Research and Technology Park is a cooperative effort of the following organizations: the South Jersey Economic Development District, the Aviation Research and Technology Park of N.J., The

FAA William J. Hughes Technical Center, Atlantic County, the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority, the Richard Stockton College of N.J., the N.J. Economic Development Authority, the South Jersey Transportation Authority of the A.C. International Airport, and the United States Economic Development Administration. The support of the Greater Atlantic City Chamber has been gratefully acknowledged and appreciated for their assistance in the development of this magnificent project.

A License for Panhandlers?

One of the biggest and most persistent complaints from people walking the Atlantic City Boardwalk is about the number of panhandlers asking for money. Unfortunately, the courts have ruled that they have the right to do this. At the present time the only restriction that Atlantic City has is an ordinance that prohibits aggressive begging. I recently read an Internet story relating that Raleigh, N.C., had an ordinance wherein a license must be obtained by beggars or panhandlers that has specific rules to obtain and maintain a license. The following are the main elements of the ordinance: the permit is free, they last for one year, photo identity is needed to apply, a warrant check is conducted before a permit is issued, when the license is issued the guidelines are to be explained to the individual, no begging or panhandling may take place within 100 feet of any ATM or any other machine at which money is dispensed to the public and no begging or panhandling may take place between the hours of 9pm to 8am. Before reading this information, I had a call from A.C. 1st Ward Councilman Bruce Ward about his attending our next Boardwalk Committee meeting. As soon as I finished reading it, I called him and told him about it. He said he would contact Council Solicitor Billie Moore with a request to obtain a copy of the Raleigh, N.C., ordinance. I also placed a call to Atlantic City Police Captain Joe Fair and told him about it. He sent a communication to Police Chief John Mooney with a copy of the newspaper story to inform him of my call. Capt. Fair stated, “I believe that the addition of such an ordinance would be a valuable tool in our effort to make Atlantic City safer and promote tourism. I recommend that the Atlantic City Solicitor’s Office be contacted and requested to research the Raleigh ordinance and determine whether it would be legally appropriate to create a similar ordinance in Atlantic City.” n

The popular “Harvest of Hope� gala wine tasting, menu sampling and silent auction will take place for the seventh year at Caesars Palladium Ballroom on Friday, Oct. 16, from 6:30-9:30pm. It is the largest of several fundraisers held annually by the Alcove Center for Grieving Children and Families, which since 2001 has provided comfort and support for children and their parents or guardians who are grieving the loss of a loved one. “We raise anywhere from $60-80,000 per year from this event,� says Mindy Shemtov, co-founder of the Northfield-based Alcove Center. “All of our programs are free of charge to the children and families who attend, and the money raised from this event helps keep the programs free. We depend solely on the generosity of the community and grants from businesses and foundations. Without this support the Alcove Center would not exist. This year has been especially difficult in raising the funds needed to support our programs.� Circle Liquor Store of Somers Point arranges for approximately 25 distributors to showcase about 300 wines for the event. Items for the silent auction come from various businesses in and around the area. “As more people have learned about the Alcove, its mission and its programs, more people have embraced it,� says Shemtov. Call the Alcove Center at 484-1133 or see thealcove.org for more information. — Ray Schweibert

25 years of the Lake Fred Sound

The next time you’re feeling a little adventurous musically, we suggest you give a listen to the sounds of Lake Fred radio. Playing an eclectic variety of music, which can range from folk music, to rock, to classical, to swing — all within the same set — WLFR Radio, 91.7 FM, the Richard Stockton College of New Jersey’s radio station, has maintained a free-form style that makes it hard to define. “We want to be different,� says Joe’l Ludovich, faculty advisor to the station. “And we want to be even more eclectic than most college radio stations.� The station, named after the college’s scenic Lake Fred, celebrates its 25th anniversary this Friday (Oct. 16, 7-11pm) with a party at the college’s Lakeside Center. The station first hit the airwaves in 1984 and still offers a mix of student produced programs and shows produced from within the local community. With a new digital signal, the station is also preparing to boost that signal from about 250 watts to about 950 watts, increasing its coverage area, and can also be heard online at wlfr.fm. So the next time you want something a little different, give a listen to Lake Fred. They’re likely to play something you like even if it’s a total surprise. — Mike Pritchard

Q: How was the show? Sarah McLaughlin Ambler, Pa. A: I’m celebrating my birthday. She is really amazing in concert.

Megan Gibbons Ambler, Pa. A: She has a great voice. My favorite song was ‘All I Ever Wanted.’

Alexis Lucas North Wales, Pa. A: She did a really awesome job and it was fun.

Throughout the room are comfortable table-and-chair sets that, regardless of where you sit, offer exquisite views of the ocean to the east, the bay to the west, the down-beach communities to the south, and uptown Atlantic City and Brigantine to the north. On this evening the Kraft Trio was performing jazz standards and easy-listening classics, and is comprised of Michael Kraft on acoustic guitar, Suzanna Barnes on violin and Susan Salmon on mandolin. Prior to signing with Alto Vino, the trio had been a mainstay at the Bacchanal at Caesars until that establishment closed about a month ago. The trio enthusiastically takes requests from guests. Other musicians scheduled to appear at Alto Vino are the Beth Tinnon Duo every Sunday and Thursday evening, the Howard Issacson Duo most Monday and Tuesday evenings, and the Michael Pedicin Duo most Friday evenings. Along with its extensive list of white, red and sparkling wines, Alto Vino has several exceptional single-malt Scotches, cognacs, beers and ales available to guests. One of its signature items and must-try, lite-bite plates, says Maiorani, is its assorted fried stuffed Italian olives. “We have about six cheeses that change every three weeks, we have some superb Italian deli meats, and this week we have stuffed king crab legs, miniature paninis, and just a lot of fantastic choices,” says Maiorani. “We try to do wines that are good values from all over the world. And of course, our view is the greatest view in the city.” n

By Ray Schweibert ER H A P S T H E P E R C E P T I O N T H A T C E R T A IN things are simply too good not to share is the reason the Tropicana’s quaint little club with the panoramic views was reopened to all again. What had been a sky-high, live-music venue called the Top of the Trop morphed into a preferred players club, seemingly around the same time the Tropicana was cultivating the reputation of its dining-and-entertainment district called The Quarter, which opened in 2004. About a month ago, the Trop re-released its towering, 76-seat treasure – sited on the 20th floor of its North Tower and completely enclosed by glass – to anyone inclined to visit it any evening except Saturday, when it remains a private club. “We were looking for another public venue for our hotel guests to go to on a nightly basis,” says Al Maiorani, vice president of resort operations and a 28-year Tropicana employee. “We have 2,129 rooms here so we have a lot of people looking for things to do. We also wanted to offer people a lot of value, so we came up with the idea of a wine bar serving small plates. We have 33 wines by the glass available in two-ounce pours or six-ounce [full glass] pours, and we have a hot-and-cold appetizer menu at $5 or $6 per plate. So we wanted to put some options out there that would make things a little more economical for people.” Alto Vino debuted to the public in late August, and last Friday evening, Oct. 9, a media event was held that paired certain wine samplings with small plates and Italian-inspired hors d’oeuvres. If you’re not a wine expert, the entire Alto Vino staff is knowledgeable about how to pair which wine with what plate, and there is a sommelier on staff, Karen Curley, who can give you even more details if desired. Among the many sensational pairings on this evening were a lobster-andavocado salad with a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, Prima Donna Cheese (a high-end Swiss cheese) with an Italian Pinot Grigio, and Pont Reyes blue cheese with a 10-year-old Tawny Port. When patrons enter the club off the elevator, there’s a

A.C. CINEFEST

Uncoupling ‘Couples Retreat’ is a flat attempt at relationship humor By Lori Hoffman

I

N A WORLD OF COMMUNICATION dominated by BlackBerrys, Facebook, Twitter and MySpace, it is an outdated notion to suggest that three couples would drop everything in their lives to join a fourth couple with a crumbling marriage at a couples retreat. That, of course, is the premise for Couples Retreat, a comedy that tries to lift off with a shaky premise and then proceeds to strain and mug to glean some laughs from a dry well. It is downright cringe worthy as one bad comedy set-up after another takes a nosedive. This movie can’t even wring any laughs out of shark attack. Couples comedy reached its zenith in the 1930s and ’40s, the glorious age of the screwball comedy when Cary Grant, Irene Dunne, Katharine Hepburn, Spencer Tracy, Carole Lombard, William Powell, Myra Loy, Jean Arthur and Jimmy Stewart plied their trade with elegance, sensuality and plenty of laughter. However, the key to making a great screwball comedy was always the foundation — a strong screenplay that allowed Couples Retreat H Directed by Peter Billingsley; rated PG-13

the actors to find their comic timing and deliver a cinematic gem. In an movie era when screenwriting is even more undervalued than in the previous decades of the 1950s and ’60s when directors were first acclaimed as the auteurs of their films, the screenplay remains the foundation on which one must build even the most delicate comedy soufflé. Couples Retreat is about as delicate as a sledgehammer. In this case the actors can’t complain too much since Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau, the guys who created the indie masterpiece Swingers, collaborated on the screenplay with Dana Fox. They also top the list of bad mugging as two of the husbands, joined by their wives, played by Malin Akerman and Sex and the City’s Kristen Davis respectively. Jason Bateman and Kristen Bell, an acting mismatch, play the couple with the crumbling marriage. The fourth couple is a man (Faizon Love), still pining after his wife, who is currently hooked up with a sweet young thing (Kali Hawk). Before the movie gets to the contrived, happily-ever-after finale, the audience has to put up with the snooty hotel manager, the wacky therapist and the Fabio clone yoga instructor. That the

You don’t have to go to Toronto or Martin Kove Sundance to attend a film festival. For the second straight year, the Downbeach Film Festival presents a local film festival. Atlantic City Cinefest, with an outstanding array of documentaries, shorts and independent cinema, takes place Friday, Oct. 16 to Sunday, Oct. 18 at Resorts’ Screening Room and several other venues. The festival will be honoring the work of actor Martin Kove who appeared in Wyatt Earp, all three Karate Kid films and numerous television shows. Kove stars in Bare Knuckles at the festival. Louis Mandylor (My Big Fat Greek Wedding), who stars in the new comedy, Gerald, and the thriller, In the Eyes of a Killer, will also attend. When the Atlantic City Film Festival died a few years back, film fan and journalist Bill Sokolic thought it was a shame, and began organizing a film festival to take its place. Says Sokolic, “I think attendees will be pleased with the choice of films playing at this year’s festival, including the New Jersey-based documentaries such as The Cartel and Band of Pirates, sleeper features such as Sam’s Rain and the indies like Bare Knuckles and Gerald.” The festival opens at Resorts’ Screening Room with the Atlantic City-based Ice Grill USA. Tickets are $12. Following a Q&A with filmmakers Greg Santarsiero and Mark Bernardi, there will be a reception at Megan’s Pub at 9:30pm. Films will be screened beginning at 10am on Saturday at Resorts (tickets are $5 & $6) as well as a panel discussion with filmmakers from 1:30-2:30pm (tickets are $10). Sunday features more movies, beginning at 10am. A final reception and awards ceremony takes place Sunday from 7-9pm at the Tiara Ballroom at Trump Taj Mahal.

wonderful French actor Jean Reno plays the therapist is a sign that his agent is not doing a good enough job finding him film roles in American movies. Couples Retreat is a movie that brings out the worst in everyone involved. n

EMEMBER WHEN YOU WERE young and naive? Remember when your parents would say, “I’ll explain it to you when you’re older”? Isn’t it funny how when we watched television shows as a kid there were innuendos that only an adult would understand, but still we thought it was funny because of the mannerisms or expressions we saw (Three’s Company anyone?). Now when we watch a show we haven’t seen in years we may say to ourselves, “Wow, I had no clue that this is what they meant. That went right over my head.” I remember watching the show Married with Children as a kid, but then as I got older my mom told my sister and I that we couldn’t watch it anymore. Of course, we told her we wouldn’t and then watched it anyway — until we could hear her approaching the TV room and we would swiftly change the channel. The point I’m trying to make — aside from recalling classically bad TV shows — is that as we got older we became wiser and we started to understand more. In life our knowledge is limited to the experiences we have. Sometimes we may feel that we understand certain circumstances because we look at how others are feeling and then make our decision based off of what we see, but maybe not what we actually grasp or understand ourselves. If we don’t take chances, meet new people and put ourselves out there, we won’t have the opportunity to learn and expand our horizons. Who wants to go through life missing out on the infinite opportunities and possibilities that exist out in our big world? I certainly don’t. We tend to look up to our elders because they are wiser. Now we have that opportunity to share our wisdom with our children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, etc. All of our experiences in life — the good, the bad and the ugly — are learning ones. They say that knowledge is power. It’s good to be in the know, so make sure to keep your mind open, because it will lead to a better understanding of this game we call life.

In today’s shaky economy many businesses are struggling, but there are also many people out there, especially locally,

who are bold enough to take a chance and start a new business. As a small business owner, many times we have great ideas and concepts, but not always enough funds for important things such as office space, equipment or marketing and sales resources. Our ideas are what get us by and we hope that as business picks up we can start to afford all of those basic luxuries. Well, now we don’t have to worry as much anymore, thanks to Jamie Siracusa. He couldn’t have had better timing for the grand opening of the Business Excellence Center, located at 501 Scarborough Dr., directly behind the English Creek Shopping Center in Egg Harbor Township. I was honored to be there for the recent ribbon cutting because not only is this an excellent idea and a much-needed service in our community, but I was also surrounded by great local business professionals who, like me, want to see this succeed In the e-mail invite to the ribbon cutting that was sent out to a select group of people, the Business Excellence Center is described as: “A new concept in doing business in South Jersey, offering a unique blend of business management, marketing & sales resources with ‘sliding scale’ of virtual office solutions. Success has a home. You can find office space anywhere or you can build your dreams at the Business Excellence Center.” In my opinion, this is a great opportunity for people in our area looking to set out on their own.

Jobs Outlook Gets Sunnier as Green Economy Grows I

N A RECENT EPISODE OF THE HIT SHOW Medium, an unemployed dad answered the door to find a neighbor who wanted to consider him for a job in the “green economy.� While opportunity may not literally knock on your door, several area organizations are at work to help local residents prepare for the growing opportunities available in the broad category of “green jobs.� As concern for the environment rises, a new sector of the economy is rising up to meet the challenges presented by pollution and our dependence on foreign oil. Just as President John F. Kennedy called on a generation to become leaders in space exploration, President Barack Obama is encouraging the country to lead the way in alternative energy and prepare for jobs in the emerging green sector. (See p. 30 for tips on researching green jobs.)

causes a ripple effect by creating jobs related to that sector. For example, New Jersey is now the number one state in total square feet of solar panels installed. Jobs in this field include those in the production of solar panels, shipping them, as well as selling, installing, and maintaining them. The ripples are felt throughout related sectors such as tool manufacturing, uniforms, and even in retailing and entertainment as workers spend their disposable income.

Where are these jobs? New Jersey’s Energy Master Plan estimates by 2020 at least 20,000 jobs could be created in the state. According to ACUA’s Dovey, New Jersey and the other Mid-Atlantic states are poised to take advantage of the great opportunities available because of wind technology and solar power. Dovey reports that “New Jersey is the best place in the country to install solar technology now� because of the incentives available to homes and businesses. What jobs are considered “green?� Jean McAllister, Atlantic Cape Community According to Rick Dovey, president of Atlantic County Utilities Authority (ACUA), a green job is College’s (ACCC) associate dean of continuing eduone that “enhances the environment� in some way cation believes those incentives are critical to spur by helping to remove or process waste, capture or consumer interest in this technology. McAllister process energy, or perform functions related to believes it’s consumer spending that will determine if this sector takes off and develops into an engine those tasks. The rise of any single segment of the green sector that revitalizes the economy as hoped. see more online @

What skills are required? The green sector has such a potentially broad spectrum of jobs that virtually anyone could work at some position in a company within it. Administrative office workers are needed to keep the offices functioning and to respond to calls from customers. Laborers are needed to manufacture equipment such as solar panels. Technicians are needed to install, repair, and maintain the various equipment. Analysts are needed to determine what needs to be done in a building to make it more energy efficient. Drivers are needed to deliver parts and equipment. In the past, people interested in this sector of the economy had to leave southern New Jersey for training. Today,

area community colleges and workforce development agencies are working to lead the way in educating and preparing residents to take advantage of opportunities as they arise. ACCC is working with local One-Stop Career Centers to support retraining for the unemployed and underemployed. Atlantic Cape will provide training in customer service and computer skills, as well as in personal presentation skills. The goal of combining career training with job readiness training is to help students prepare, compete for, obtain, and keep jobs in this new sector. Cumberland County College and Ocean County College also offer training and workshops designed to help area

residents learn the skills and earn the certifications that act as a “seal of approval” and demonstrate an applicant has a specific level of knowledge.

Use Social Networks to Search for a Job By Kristen Jacoway

I

S SOCIAL MEDIA A FAD OR HAS it changed the way we will conduct job searching? More recruiters and companies are utilizing social media platforms, like LinkedIn and Twitter, to find and attract talent. In fact, according to the 2009 JobVite Social Recruitment Survey, 95 percent of companies and recruiters surveyed use LinkedIn and 42 percent use Twitter. Are you active on either of these platforms?

LinkedIn

According to LinkedIn’s own press, LinkedIn has 49 million registered users and it’s estimated that a new member joins every second. LinkedIn provides an opportunity to not only showcase components from your resume, but also gives you the ability to present multi-dimensional aspects of your expertise that a resume’ alone cannot provide. Job searching is most successful when you add the critical component of networking. Networking in person is

extremely valuable. Social networking on these social media platforms, though, will expand your network with people that you may never have had an opportunity to meet in person.

According to a recent survey, 95 percent of companies and recruiters use LinkedIn and 42 percent use Twitter. LinkedIn has rich research ability for someone in a career transition. You can go to the Company tab to find a targeted company and find out not only the information about what the company does, but also, recent news articles, revenues, number of employees, and so forth. Additionally, you can see how

people who work there are connected to you. Did you know that some companies list certain positions exclusively on LinkedIn? When I moved to South Carolina, I was targeting a certain company where I wanted to work. I located the company on LinkedIn and found that one of the key decision makers was connected to someone in my network. I was able to obtain an introduction through the person I was directly connected with. He introduced me and within days, I had a lunch meeting scheduled with her. At that point, I saw the true power of LinkedIn.

Twitter

Twitter is emerging as a leader in social media. According to Nielson, Twitter experienced 1,342 percent growth in a one-year period (Feb. 2008 – Feb. 2009). You can find companies, recruiters, and employees of companies on Twitter. Additionally, like LinkedIn, some compa-

Do you Tweet? nies are posting certain positions exclusively on Twitter. The key to a successful Twitter profile in a career transition is to build a branded bio. After you join, make sure that you complete your bio using key words recruiters are likely to search on. Include what you do and what you are currently doing. For example, you might include, “Chief Financial Officer (CFO) looking for a position in the healthcare industry.” Include a URL where people can go to learn more about you (your LinkedIn profile, VisualCV, blog, and so forth). You want to write at least 10 tweets that

Use Multiple Strategies

LinkedIn

• Connections: People in your network. Connections are ranked by degrees to show how close they are to you. First degree connections are in your immediate circle, second degree connections are connected to you through someone you have a first degree connection with.

Kristen Jacoway provides personal branding and social media marketing to professionals and entrepreneurs in a career transition at Career Design Coach (www.careerdesigncoach.com). She is the author of the upcoming book, ‘I’m in a Job Search — Now What???’

• Introduction: When there is a person you want to meet who is a direct connection to one of your first degree connections you ask the first degree connection to introduce you to the other person.

Companies want to know, like, and trust people that they hire and professionals are being given opportunities to demonstrate their level of expertise on social media platforms. Companies google potential candidates — in fact, according to a study done by Execunet, 87 percent of executive recruiters will google a potential employee prior to contacting them for an interview.

Chef’s Dinner a Knockout

Morton’s Chef Dinner provides tantalizing taste of steakhouse’s scrumptious fare By Frank Gabriel

C

OMBINE A PERFECT EARLY autumn Friday evening in Atlantic City with a spectacular meal, equally stellar wines selected for each course therein, plus a great civic cause and you have all the necessary elements for a truly rare event. Such an occasion took place at Caesars’ outpost of Morton’s The Steakhouse, on Friday, Oct. 9, as the restaurant presented a Chef’s Dinner to benefit the very worthy Community Food Bank. Guests were ushered to the facility’s inner sanctum, a private space called “The Boardroom” just to the right of the main kitchen area. This not only gave the event a kicky, members-only cachet, but also allowed us tantalizing glimpses of the kitchen in action, working through the steady night’s service. Hosting was gregarious general manager Michael Flannelly, who supervised sumptuous, never-ending pourings of Tuscanbased Casali Di Bibbiano wines. Flannery, well qualified for the task, is certified by the restaurant corporation’s national Sommelier program, conducted by the Court of Master Sommeliers, the world’s premier governing body for wine service professionals. Executive chef John Rey made frequent appearances in the dining area just prior to each course, explaining the intricacies

The Chef’s Dinner party

of preparation and what to expect. Want to see what a chef is really supposed to be like? Cast your glance upon this guy — big, sturdy with thick fingers covered by burns and other small marks, meticulous in his food preparation and presentation. We started with a simple, enticing offering of Boston Sweet Corn and Lobster Chowder, and Rey explained, “I’ve been in the kitchen since early this morning making the stock for this soup.” It showed, the blend was lovely, light and fragrant, providing an ideal platform for the large pieces of tender crustacean. The second course was a classic tomato,

mozzarella and proscuitto salad. The ultimate Jersey vegetable, thick-sliced tomatoes were layered with discs of soft, mildly sweet cheese. Striped atop each was a razorthin cut of Italy’s most treasured meat, wonderfully salty proscuitto. The wine paired with this was Luminosa Doc Orcia, a 100-percent Sangiovese, the same grape used to produce Italian Chianti. Ruby red, aged a year-and-a-half in French oak barrels (barriques) it possessed a dry, elegant, lightly floral and fruity essence. Just like it’s first cousin, the white balsamic, these qualities paired marvelously with the salad course.

The entrée, sliced tenderloin tips with bacon and bleu cheese, brought chunks of prime beef cut from the same piece of meat as famed Chateaubriand. Rich and substantial, the steak swam in a light brown mixture, thickened with chunks of bacon and bleu. This velvety sauce was so delicious that our table requested an additional serving of Morton’s signature dome of onion bread to soak up the remainder. The wine selected for this was a bit of a surprise. Alfiero IGT Toscano, a 100-percent Merlot, was markedly different from the mass marketed American Merlots that have become so ubiquitous stateside. This one was deep red with just enough puckery tannin to play off the qualities of the tenderloin and its brawny sauce. Dessert, a double chocolate mousse, was a fitting follow-up to the powerful main course. Presented with Ginesio Rosso Toscano IGT, a 100-percent Cabernet Sauvignon, the creamy, complex chocolate and intense red proved to be a beautiful combination. The coup de grace for this gustatory celebration was its humanitarian mission. Morton’s, partnered with Feeding America, has committed to raise a minimum of $75,000 in 2009. The local food bank beneficiary for Morton’s The Steakhouse, Atlantic City, is the Community Foodbank. n E-mail Frank Gabriel at fgabriel@acweekly.com see more online @

OOTLOOSE, L I K E T H E Tropicana’s previous musical presentation in its showroom, Fame, is a stage musical developed from a hit movie. The original movie in 1984, a drama with music and dancing, starred a young, rising star named Kevin Bacon. What made Footloose such a fan favorite was a dynamic combination of terrific pop songs, high powered dancing and a storyline that had some real emotional depth, a rarity in musical entertainment. And, like Fame, it is currently being remade as a movie, scheduled for release next year. The version at the Tropicana finds that emotional core with perhaps the best acting this reviewer has seen in a musical presentation locally. That said, the dancing and singing is of a regional theater quality. It’s acceptable, but not at the top tier that is often seen in casino adaptations of musicals. This cast is mostly young and just starting out in their musical careers. However, if you are looking for a fun night out at a reasonable price, Footloose delivers just that for just $25. If you’ve seen the prices for touring companies of Broadway shows, you know that is a real bargain. Ren (Peter Kriss) is a savvy city kid

from Chicago who is forced to move with his single mom to a town in the sticks. Not only that but dancing has been banned in the town. This is a crushing blow to Ren; it’s bad enough he is stuck in the sticks but he can’t blow off some steam and dance? The ban on dancing and rock music came about because the local minister, the Rev Shaw Moore (Michael James Hegarty) made sure the city ordinance passed after four teens were killed in an accident on the way home from a dance. Ren is determined to shake up this town and convince them that dancing is not the root of all evil. Joining him in his quest for booty shaking in Beaumont are his new friend Willard (Mike Kelton) and Ariel Moore (Sara Ruzicka), the reverend’s daughter who is a bit of a wild child. As did the film, the musical presentation includes a slew of rock and pop dance hits performed by the cast including the title track written by Kenny Loggins, Bonnie Tyler’s “Holding Out For A Hero,” “Girl Gets Around” by Sammy Hager, “Almost Paradise” by Loverboy’s Mike Reno and Heart’s Ann Wilson, and the infectious “Let’s Hear It For the Boy.”

The latter is a highlight and features Ren teaching Willard how to dance so he can impress his girlfriend Rusty (Liz Clark Golson). In a production of Footloose, Willard often steals the show, and Mike Kelton makes sure that happens in this production. He is hilarious. Another highlight is an excellent rendition of “Almost Paradise” sung by Kriss and Ruzicka.

original film version of Footloose went on to major Hollywood success. • Kevin Bacon (Ren) not only had a popular game named after him, Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, he went on to star in numerous other movies including Tremors, Flatliners, A Few Good Men, JFK, Apollo 13 and Mystic River. • Lori Singer (Ariel) starred in the

OR SOME PEOPLE, PUNK ROCK’S mere mention can evoke images of mosh pits and rambunctious young revelers releasing pent-up emotions, but as a musical genre it seems to have become more acclimated into mainstream society. Parents are no longer as anxious to hunt down like Tokyo Rose the derelict DJs broadcasting punk with the presumed intention of inciting angry riots. Maybe it’s not their cup of tea, but just as their parents finally relented after being inflamed by Elvis’ gyrating hips, they’re now seeing punk for what it is — fun, high-energy, up-tempo music with a message and a conduit for camaraderie, and what it’s not — an automatic fast-track to moral corruption. Punk as a genre is entrenched in England with bands like the Clash and the Sex Pistols, and New York City with the Ramones, but Southern California is also recognized as a principal pioneering ground. One of the original So. Cal. bands is Social Distortion, which was founded in the late 1970s by 17-yearold guitarist, lead singer and principal songwriter Michael Ness. “Social D” is credited with having influenced such contemporary rock bands as Pearl Jam and Green Day, and much of the material Ness and his band produced was inspired by early country and blues greats like Hank Williams, Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf. Starting with 1983’s Mommy’s Little Monster, Social

D’s released six studio CDs and commercial hits like “Ball and Chain,” “I Was Wrong,” “When the Angels Sing” and “Story of My Life,” and may best be recognized for performing a cover of the Johnny Cash hit “Ring of Fire.” Social D returns to Showboat’s House of Blues this Saturday, Oct. 17, for a sold-out show beginning 7pm with opening bands the Strangers and Middle Class Rut. Besides Ness, other members include drummer Adam Willard, bassist Brent Harding and guitarist Jonny “2Bags” Wickersham, who is producing a record for the Strangers called The Human Condition. A member since February 2000, Wickersham spoke to AC Weekly by phone from a tour stop in Buffalo, N.Y. I understand the Orange County section of Southern California, where you’re from, was a hotbed for punk rock music. Not just California, but New York, London, D.C., Boston — every area had its own section where it’s rooted. Shane MacGowan, the original singer/songwriter for [the English-Irish band] the Pogues, had a band called the Nips, and was around from the beginning with the [Sex] Pistols and the whole English scene. Shortly thereafter the Pogues and a bunch of bands got that hybrid thing going [more recently with Irish-influenced punk bands like the Dropkick Murphys and Flogging Molly], but you can trace that lineage right back to that.

In 2007, Social D put out a Greatest Hits record, but your last studio CD was in 2004 [Sex, Love, Rock ‘n’ Roll]. Is there anything new in the works? We’re going to try to get something in the can by early next year. We have some songs we’re really happy about, including five or six we’ve been playing live on this tour and a whole stash of songs that are not quite done that we have to go back and look at the arrangements and maybe finish some verses. We just tour and tour and don’t devote much time to the record, and it’s high time we did that.

to Europe with us, and then Canada. He fits right in and has been doing a really good job. He’s from San Diego and played in a band called Rocket from the Crypt. The whole band sounds tight. We owe a lot to [sound engineer and tour manager] Craig Walker. He’s just really good at what he does and we think of him as one of the band. He’s got an excellent ear for tone, which a lot of sound people do not have, unfortunately. He can mix and get any room to sound good. We’re lucky to have him.

Has your fan base been indicating that they’d like to see new material released on a CD? Social D’s never been a band that puts out a record every year or 18 months. In fact, we do take quite a while between our studio stuff, but the thing is we always focus on putting out the best record we can and that often takes time. One of the cool things about not putting out records like clockwork is that it creates a little anticipation, it seems. I have seen bands — and bands that I’m a fan of — put out so many albums so quickly that after a while people stop paying attention. The question of how the band’s evolved or changed since the last record gets blurred when you produce too much.

I see on your tour schedule you’ll be playing with Pearl Jam at the Wachovia Spectrum in Philly later this month [Oct. 27-28]. How excited are you about that? They’re friends of ours and great guys. I met them years ago when I was playing with my old band, the Cadillac Tramps, and we had a chance to do a few shows with them in Canada in the early ’90s. For us, you couldn’t even imagine what that would be like. Here we are a band playing little clubs and bars, and now opening for Pearl Jam. It would’ve been the equivalent of opening for Led Zeppelin back in their day. But they were really on point with how they treated their fans and the bands opening for them, and I respect them for that.

Adam Williard, your drummer, recently replaced [the retired] Charlie Quintana. How has that been working out for you? He joined the band and went right over

How did you get your nickname, 2Bags? It goes back to when I was a little kid [I’m 42 now] who got into a lot of trouble, and was kind of living like a little gutter rat. n see more online @

Having resisted a reunion tour previously, Annie Haslam and Michael Dunford revive the brilliant sounds of Renaissance By Ray Schweibert

T

HERE’S A SORT OF CALMING affect to Annie Haslam’s speaking voice, intertwined in the British accent that’s still unmistakable after residing in southeastern Pennsylvania for nearly the last 20 years. It seems sort of fitting for a lady who was once on a career path to being a dress designer emerging out of working-class England, and whose passions today include oil painting, animal rights and environmental conservation. It’s also a voice of extraordinary range and crystalline quality that, combined with ambition, helped her hit the heights of musical stardom with the band Renaissance, and experience a life thus far that few would immediately label as calm. She went on to enjoy abundant success with her own band, survived breast cancer and a serious car accident, and delved deeply into the other artistic pursuit that would help define her life, painting. One thing Haslam seemed rather adamant about was remaining focused on future pursuits, and Renaissance — among the most prosperous, progressiverock bands of the 1970s — was in her rear-view mirror. “Many people kept asking [about a reunion tour], and the question would pop up now and again, but I have a career in painting now and kept saying, ‘no, no, no,’” says Haslam, in a recent phone conversation with Atlantic City Weekly. “One day Michael [Dunford] called and said, ‘I

know you’re going to say no,’ and I said, ‘No.’ But then I told him, ‘Look, if you can get John Scher, who was one of our managers in the ’70s, to put it together, I’ll do it.’” Admittedly, Haslam was gambling that Scher would be too busy to bother trying to revive interest in a British band that formed 40 years ago (originally

Haslam enjoyed abundant success with her own band, survived breast cancer and a serious car accident. established in 1969 by members of the disbanded Yardbirds), and last toured together nearly 30 years ago. That was a day she should be glad she did not try her luck in the casinos. “I didn’t think there was a chance he’d be interested,” she says. “He’s a very busy man. But after Michael called him, [Scher] said, ‘You know, I was just thinking about your band last week. Let’s do it.’ And that’s where it all started off.” Atlantic City is the final leg of Renaissance’s nine-city, 40th anniversary tour, taking place this Saturday, Oct. 17, at Trump Taj Mahal’s Xanadu Theater. The northern New Jersey-based Scher’s

reputation as a band manager is surpassed only by his status as one of the nation’s top concert promoters. If a Renaissance reunion tour was going to happen and have any chance of being successful, Scher was the man to have at the helm. “He had to do research into whether there’d still be an audience and, if so, where were they, how do we get to them,

how do we do a tour without any new material and without having toured in nearly 30 years?” says Haslam. “But as it unfolded, and now that it’s happening, I’m loving it. We’ve got the most incredible band that sounds better than it ever sounded in the ’70s, because we have all this modern technology and the ability to adapt the acoustics to the specific venues. The sound is incredible.” Dunford plays guitar and is the band’s principal songwriter, having penned such classics at “Ocean Gypsy,” “Mother Russia,” “Ashes Are Burning” and “Running Hard.” Probably the band’s most recognizable hit is Dunford’s “Carpet of the Sun,” and it’s one of those hauntingly beautiful songs that, when it first began circulating the American airwaves in the 1970s, caused millions to pause and ask, “Who is this?” Dunford and Haslam are the only Renaissance members with roots back to the band’s early incarnation, but they have surrounded themselves with musicians of similar pedigree. Among them are keyboardist Rave Tesar, bassist/vocalist David Keyes (both members of the Annie Haslam Band), drummer Frank Pagano and keyboardist/vocalist Tom Brislin. Opening the show will be German-born singer/songwriter/guitarist Jann Klose. “I met Jann at a benefit concert in Bucks County [Pa.] and we became good friends,” says Haslam. “He’s a very talented performer.” n

THE CITY BEAT

Still Rough Out There

Greed is a factor, but there’s plenty of other elements contributing to the depressed economy By Raymond Tyler

I

HAVE NO ARGUMENT AT ALL FOR PEOPLE who claim that greed has ruined America. I believe, however, that both ruin and restoration come from more than just simple bumper-sticker slogans; facts are facts. Fact: Like many people, I am living in the toughest economic period of my lifetime. Many of the business practices of the past 15 years have just been schemes to cover up greed from big business and an ever-depressing economy, unless you are one of the rich getting richer. For example, in 1989 I don’t recall people bragging about the equity in their homes, and they definitely weren’t using home equity to take vacations or, depending upon that equity, to retire. In fact, in the 1980s a home was still considered a family investment that would be passed down for generations. By the mid 1990s, in many minds the term “real estate” was synonymous with “quick money.” In 1988 I moved into a two-bedroom apartment. The rent was $450 a month with heat and hot water included. I wish you the best trying to get a one-room apartment at $700 a month in Atlantic City. I am not saying that owners shouldn’t charge what they can get. I have a relative who is a landlord, so I have an idea of what taxes are in A.C., and I am not picking on owners. What I am saying is that wages have not gone up nearly

enough to cover cost-of-living increases or the cost of surviving, unless your goal is to live in poverty — then you’ll be OK. I am saying that making a sizable and healthy profit is no longer enough for the greedy. I am tired of hearing about corporations that make hundreds of millions of dollars in profits each year, then fire people because consumers cannot continue to pay elevated prices and continue to bloat the profit margin. I am tired of seeing the middle class on the endangered list. I remember when middle class didn’t mean both parents working, credit cards maxed out, home equity shot, and the son and daughter having to move back in and work just to have a roof over their heads. Most middle-class families I know live more like the family from Good Times than Happy Days, and though the names of those TV shows were similar, the days and times were vastly different.

Help Wanted

The economy is in such a mess that charities have been cutting everything they can just to continue. My charity of choice the past few years has been the Covenant House of Atlantic City, which helps feeds and house homeless pre-teens to 21 years old. For a child who is homeless, finding that first job can be a

confidence builder and a great step toward restoring a life that’s been a nightmare. I spoke recently with Rosalyn Tally, associate director of Covenant House of A.C., about what today’s economy is doing to their kids’ job market. “Unfortunately, this last year has been the toughest for our youth to find employment,” Talley says. “Looking back at our stats over the last four years, casino employment has been on the decline while jobs in retail have been increasing with the addition of The Walk and The Pier [Shops at Caesars]. We have also
