â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think that with that [THC] restriction, this will simply be an exercise in futility. Holding marijuana to only 10 percent THC has no hope of providing substantive relief to patients. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s absolutely absurd and I really hope that isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a ATLANTIC CITY, 1920 nonnegotiable point.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; p. 42 see more online @

Historic Holidays

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of those holiday traditions that is often appreciated more by a select group of locals than a widespread audience, but any southern New Jersey resident (or tourist for that matter) who doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know about the annual Historic Dennisville Christmas House Tour is missing out on a treat.

The tour is sponsored by the Dennisville Historic Homeowner Association and highlights 10 or more festively decorated historic homes. The Cape May County town, part of Dennis Township, will hold this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tour from 5-9pm Saturday, Dec. 18. The featured house of the tour is the Isaiah Christian house, a gentleman farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home that is a well-preserved example of Greek Revival architecture. Isaiah Christian was a successful farmer in the early- to mid- 19th century. The front portion of the home was built late in his life around 1842.

The house is a great example of the transitional building techniques between the earlier heavy timber framed structures found throughout Cape May County and the balloon framing used in Victorian-style houses built after the 1850s.

The tour also includes numerous stops for refreshments, hot drinks and food. Tickets are $10 and sold at the Dennisville Post Office, 24 Hall Ave., the official starting point of the tour.

Call 861-1338 for details. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Mike Pritchard

Bring a Can, Enjoy the Band!

A concert to benefit the Community Food Bank of New Jersey will take place Sunday, Dec. 19, from 1-3pm at the Pleasantville Music Shoppe, 13-15 E. Black Horse Pike in Pleasantville. Entitled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Swinging Christmas Holiday Concert,â&#x20AC;? the show will be held in the shopâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s piano presentation room, and star Jim â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Singing Lifeguardâ&#x20AC;?

Craine and his five-piece Atlantic City All-Star Band.

Admission to the concert is free, but donations of nonperishable foods or monetary donations are requested. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had a concert this past summer for the Community Food Bank and collected over 400 pounds of food,â&#x20AC;? says Craine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Pleasantville Music Shoppe is donating the space, equipment and instruments for the musicians, and we will have surprise celebrity guest stars performing as well as students from the music classes. We chose the Food Bank of New Jersey because of the great need for food during these hard times. We want everyone to be able to have and enjoy a holiday meal with their families.â&#x20AC;?

Everyone who donates will be automatically entered to win a brand new guitar donated by Pleasantville Music Shoppe. You need not be present to win, and the drawing will take place on Wednesday, Dec. 22. Food Bank donations will be collected up to the drawing date. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Pleasantville Music Shoppe has been serving the community for over 72 years and is honored to give back to the community with this great holiday event,â&#x20AC;? says Craine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you cannot attend the concert, please drop off your donation during our regular business hours [10am-6pm daily, Sunday noon-4pm].â&#x20AC;? For more information, call 641-4600. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Ray Schweibert

Various Artists

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;World Christmas Partyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; (Putumayo) Putumayo World Music has put out an astonishing amount of high-caliber CDs, mainly for children, but equally enjoyable for parents, this year. The latest release features classic holiday songs done by artists from Jamaica and New Zealand to Mozambique and the U.S.A. Among the American recordings, Charles Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Christmas Comes But Once a Yearâ&#x20AC;? is a killer, with the relatable stanza: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll take the next six months to pay these bills / Everytime I think about it it gives me chills / But I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care / Christmas comes but once a year.â&#x20AC;?

12/13/10 5:15 PM

N A.C. ENTERPRISE OWNED by the Stolfo family for the last three decades was recently given a new name and new frontal signage that reads, in part, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tourists Welcome, Locals Expected.â&#x20AC;?

Of course, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s intended as lighthearted, not brash, but with such an effort being poured into revitalizing an image, providing a place for locals to hang out, hear live music and socialize in a friendly, affordable environment, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also somewhat justifiable.

The Boneyard had honed a local music following under its previous name, Croctails Tavern, but things turned south when an outside group was put in charge of the business and mismanaged it, trampling its reputation. The Stolfos reclaimed it, renamed it, and are in the process of trying to restore the establishmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good name. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s some growing pains right now, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a matter of getting people to know what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing, what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to achieve, and developing a loyal following like we had for years,â&#x20AC;? says Tony Stolfo. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My family has a history here that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re proud of and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to restore.

Part of thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bringing back live music. I try to make it as easy as possible [for musicians]. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got guitar amps, a drum kit, mikes, a full PA system. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re welcome to use my equipment or bring their own.â&#x20AC;?

On a recent Sunday night, several bands brought in by Jerry Ryan of Elephant Talk-Indie Music magazine (among them Felix Hunger, Rachel Schain, the Rhodes, Juggernaut Drunk, Galt Line, Rick Reinhart and the Cast of Characters) performed 45-minute sets starting at 7:30pm. Stolfo says he hopes to make live music a regular nightly attraction in the near future. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tonyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a cool guy who understands the need to establish a music scene here, or a culture that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t revolve around the casinos,â&#x20AC;? says Jason Forslund who, with Dan Fithian, comprise a promotional team that on Dec. 16 is starting â&#x20AC;&#x153;FML Thursdaysâ&#x20AC;? at the Boneyard. The plan is to bring in indie bands, DJs, special events and artists, and gradually grow a following. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re living in a rough time,â&#x20AC;? says Forslund. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to go out in A.C. any more, and I have a pretty decent job and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m educated. There are people who are proud to live here, who want to stay here and spend their money here without having to go to Philly every weekend to find a lively pop-culture scene.

The band Felix Hunger

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to offer a good substitution thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rich in culture and in life.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in touch with youth culture and we want to serve them.â&#x20AC;?

As a music promoter, Forslund says Stolfo is more flexible than the typical venue owner. Along with some charity events, there are also some eccentric ideas being floated like having a graffiti artist paint the buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exterior, spoofing whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s known as VIP bottle service in the high-end nightclubs by doing a knock-off with 40-ounce malt liquors, and running a DJ-staffed 3-9am â&#x20AC;&#x153;drunk breakfastâ&#x20AC;? that caters to the crowds coming out of the nightclubs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most bar/tavern owners are very protective of their space, which is totally understandable, but Tony was really cool with us and with others putting on the shows,â&#x20AC;? says Forslund, 24. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doing something thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not too common, which is letting the promoters and bands keep the door. In other words, you bring in your band and your own crowd and he lets the band and the promoter keep whatever you charge at the door, which is really unheard of; a lot of bar/club owners wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to be a lot of youth pride in this area, but it makes me proud that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a place that would give that kind of freedom to young people interested in playing music. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a scene here, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just untapped.â&#x20AC;?

Since I’ve Been Good My annual holiday gift wish list, or suggestions to my friends on what to give a progressively hip columnist.

By Raymond Tyler

I

T’S BECOME A WELL-KNOWN tradition that should need no further introduction, but for the few who may be unfamiliar, here’s a wish list of what I’d like this holiday season.

Healing for Aretha Franklin — The Queen of Soul is on my short list of “American Treasures.” I want to one day be as good a writer as Franklin is a maker of music. She is a force of nature. I pray for her victory over her bout with cancer.

May God allow us her living art for many more years. Cost: priceless Superman vs. Muhammad Ali, the statue and reprint — In 1978 my parents would not give me the $2.50 needed to buy “no comic book.” Today, the original sells for closer to the price of an original Dickens novel than a newsstand Superman comic. Thanks to the good people of DC Comics, I can finally enjoy the reprint of this dream fight between two of the 20th century’s biggest icons, Superman and Muhammad Ali. The other cool thing about the book is Neal Adams’ cover, with the hottest celebrities from the ’70s attending the fight. Cost: deluxe reprint hard cover $20; statue $250 (My parents won’t buy me this either.)

iPad — Apple’s Internet surfing toy is what you might call “in-frikking-credible.” I have played with other Web surfers but they all made me want to go back and get the iPad. I love the touch screen and the ease. Cost: $500 and up ‘The Boondocks’ Season 3 — What The Wire was to drama, The Boondocks is to the animated series. The Season 3 DVD set includes the controversial Winston

Jerome episode about a filmmaker who wears a dress and talks about Jesus. In Season 3 The Boondocks examines the perspective of black people who did not support Barack Obama. The biggest payoff, however, is the “Color Ruckas” episode.

The biggest letdown is that actress Regina King gets almost no award buzz for the great job she does playing two starkly different characters, Huey and Riley. Cost: $49.95 (cheaper on Amazon) ‘The Michael Jackson Experience’ on Wii — I saw this game premiere at the New York City Comic Convention.

Everyone has danced with MJ in front of their TV screen at some point, trying to master a dance step. Now it’s a game, and you relive the videos step for step. From “Beat It” to “Billie Jean” — an instant classic. One request: The sequel needs to include The Jackson Five. Cost: $49.99 ‘Treme’ on DVD — Treme follows the story of the rebuilding of New Orleans after Katrina. The music leads this story.

Treme gives the viewer a window into the music and musicians that fuel the culture and commerce of New Orleans. Treme was put together by the same people who produced The Wire. Buy the soundtrack as well, because from the first episode on you will be asking, “Who sings that” and “Where can I buy that music?” Cost: $59.99 DVD, soundtrack $19.99 ‘How To Make It in America’ on DVD — It’s fun. It’s hip. It’s smart. This show gives us a look at the ever changing arts and cultural hot bed that is Brooklyn.

It reminds me of Entourage set on the East Coast. If you have ever been 20-something and hungry to make an impact on your world, you should love this series.

Cost: $39.99. ÊN

Did he write dance. We did it every Saturday night the lyrics? until the summertime, when we moved â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Steve and Evangeline Miller, our dances down to the shore.

Berry Gordy then would have his other artists record the same songs, and whichever group was getting the most play at the time would determine the version he would release. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when Ronnie complained to Berry that the versions the Isleys recorded were not being released, and left the label. With â&#x20AC;&#x153;I Hear a Symphony,â&#x20AC;? even though the Isleysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; version was released in 1966 and the Supremesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in 1965, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible they were recorded at around the same time. N

La Mesa, Calif.

Don had a history of writing and recording great songs that other artists made into hits â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including Chubby Checkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pony Time,â&#x20AC;? Arethaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chain of Fools,â&#x20AC;?

But he had a modest success on his own in 1974 with the great â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Better to Have (And Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Need).â&#x20AC;? Don co-wrote the lyrics with Erskin Watts.

Was listening to The Isley Brothers Greatest Hits. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I Hear a Symphonyâ&#x20AC;? is on it. Did they do it before the Supremes made it a big hit? There must be a Motown story behind this that only you would know. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Ed Kuehnle

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the reasons why the Isley Brothers left Motown in 1968 to return to T-Neck, the label they had started back in 1963. At Motown they would go into the In 1964 or â&#x20AC;&#x2122;65 you did a dance in a church studio and record songs like â&#x20AC;&#x153;Symphony,â&#x20AC;?

By Whitney Ullman

W

ITH ABOUT A WEEK UNTIL Christmas, office parties are happening and you need to be prepared. It’s one of those must-do things, where either we are extremely excited about attending or just not looking forward to it at all. But I would guess that most times, many of us force ourselves to go and wind up having a really good time.

It’s especially fun when we see the real personalities of the every day people we have the pleasure of working with. You know, like the guy who always stays to himself 364 days a year, but then will all of a sudden be the life of the office party, or the girl who is nice and conservative at work, but winds up dancing on the tables.

Make sure that what you wear to the office party reflects well on you professionally.

Whatever the case, it’s fun when you’re not bound by all of the formalities of the normal work day and get to party — a little.

Don’t get too excited just yet.

These parties seem like the opportune time to let loose and go crazy, but you should think twice. According to business etiquette expert Lydia Ramsey, “The holiday party is not the time to let down your hair or throw caution to the wind. What you say and do on Saturday night will live on for a long time in the minds of your associates. If your behavior is inappropriate, your career may be shorter than everyone else’s memory. If you conduct yourself with charm and savvy, your rise up the ladder of success could pick up speed.”

Although it may makes sense to drink it up and dance it out, think about where you want to be with the company in the future and make sure to act appropriately in order to save your reputation. I recently posted a question on Facebook asking for funny office holiday party stories. To sum up the few answers I received, the consensus is along the lines of: “What happens at an office party, stays at an office party.” Most of us can relate, right? Even if you were just an innocent bystander at a past holiday shindig, I’m sure you’ve seen those coworkers where you thought, “Oh boy,

they are going to regret that!”

Speaking of regrets, let’s talk about what to wear at your office party. As Ramsey says, it’s not the time to show up in your most revealing outfit. Make sure that what you wear reflects well on you professionally. And remember that if it’s an event that is immediately after work, then your business attire is appropriate.

At these parties, it may be one of the few times you will get to meet the “higher ups,” so you want to always be alert and on your game. These parties are a great way to get to know everyone on a more personal level and if you are in a big organization it’s a way to get to know people from different departments.

Other points you should remember: first, don’t take it upon yourself to invite a guest because, unless you ask first, you won’t know if there will be enough room or if your company is working off of a budget. Especially when it comes to brining your kids, it’s important to find out if it’s a family-friendly gathering. Also, remember that this is a work party so you are pretty much required to go; but it’s not proper to just show up and leave. You should stay for at least an hour. And don’t gossip or complain. Try to compliment people or switch topics if you start to hear a lot of negativity — it just brings everyone down and causes an awkward environment.

Attending an office party — especially during usual work hours — you are still working in a sense, so make sure to be on your best behavior. Of course, it’s OK to let loose a little, but think of the party more as a mix and mingle with co-workers.

Remember to be smart, don’t drink too much and keep your wits about you. It’s the way to go and will keep you safe on your business journey. N

News on tournaments and other action in area casino poker rooms

by Mike Pritchard

T

HE UPS AND DOWNS OF Atlantic City’s fortunes are always in play and nothing holds the city hostage more than winter.

Yet, despite the unusually cold December weather, the city’s poker tables stayed warm this week as major poker events were underway at Harrah’s Resort and the Borgata last weekend.

But warm is the word, not hot.

Turnouts at the World Series of Poker circuit events at Harrah’s, as well as some special tournaments at the Borgata, were respectable late last week and into the weekend, but hardly record breaking.

The WSOP circuit events, for example, have fallen off the record pace of the opening event (which attracted 1,250 players, a record for a Harrah’s tournament) especially as buy-ins have gotten higher. Still, they continue to chug along at a solid pace.

Event 4, for example, a $1,000 buy-in No Limit game that began Thursday, attracted 292 players and a $283,240 prize pool. The winner was a local player, Daniel Fischer, of Brigantine, who wins $67,978.

Friday’s Event 5 of the circuit event had a lower turnout, but was also somewhat of an experiment for the WSOP circuit. For the first time the circuit offered a Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better game. The $300 buy-in tournament drew 143 players for a $41,613 prize pool. The winner was Nicholas Goedert, a 31-year-old graduate student studying congressional politics and game theory at Princeton University.

So another win for the Jersey boys.

Sunday, however, was the start of the circuit’s “main event,” a $1,500 buy-in (these figures are without the vigs) that’s not to be confused with the $10,000 Regional Championship event to be held this Sunday, Dec. 19 (that figure includes the vig). The main event attracted a field of 352 players and a prize pool of $512,160.

Nobody is saying that’s not serious money, but it is well off the field that the main event in Hammond, Ind. (near Chicago), drew in October. That $1,500 event drew 842 players, a circuit record.

That’s worth noting because that circuit event also had a $10,000 regional championship to attract players.

It’s also been pointed out that Harrah’s Resort scheduled the regional championship a full week after the main event, a little longer wait than usual, which may Join us on Facebook:

have cut down on players coming into town for both events.

Still, while the Harrah’s circuit events are clearly a success, that opening day record had to have had hopes running a little higher.

But there’s another sign that December (and let’s not forget Christmas shopping), is having an impact on Atlantic City tournaments. The Borgata, as always, scheduled a December Deepstack mini-series of events to offset the excitement at Harrah’s. And sure, that probably brought down the fields at some of the circuit events.

The series, however, started Thursday with a $500 buy-in No limit event that attracted 232 players and a prize pool of $116,000.

It was won by Albert Winchester, of Fall Church, Va., who takes home $31,505.

Keep in mind that a similar opening event for a Borgata Deepstack series in November drew 325 players.

Two other events, a $170 buy-in and a $200 buy-in No Limit tournaments, drew 145 and 101 players respectively, which is on par with November.

Of course, whatever the numbers, they’re good enough to have put some real money in the pockets of some local players. And both Harrah’s and the Borgata deserve credit for offering some solid action during a traditionally slow time of year.

The action should heat up some more this weekend as the WSOP Regional Championship starts Sunday and the Borgata offers another weekend of Deepstack action, including a $1,500 + $150 Deepstack tournament Friday, Dec. 17.

You can get the full schedules for both events at AC Weekly’s poker blog “The Real Deal” at acweekly.com/poker.

It’s enough to take the chill out of December.

In other news, New Jersey’s plans to institute intrastate online gaming was delayed early this week when the state Assembly sent the online poker bill back to committee to work out some more of the tax details. The bill would allow online poker and other casino games to be offered by Atlantic City casinos. The betting would only be open to New Jersey residents, as federal law still doesn’t allow interstate online gaming, though there are moves to repeal that law.

The Assembly is scheduled to vote on the bill Jan. 6. N

OLLOWING A WEEKLONG BREAK, the casino showrooms will spring to life following the Christmas holiday weekend for an all-out New Year’s Eve (and New Year’s Day) celebration.

Here’s a look ahead to see how the casinos will send out 2010 and usher in 2011.

One of the most intriguing Dec. 31 bookings is at the Tropicana, which has scheduled a concert by Christian Hoff, Michael Longoria, Daniel Reichard and J. Robert Spencer. If their names don’t exactly jump off the page, their claim to fame will: They’re the original cast of the wildly successful Broadway musical The Jersey Boys (10:30pm; $45, $65, $75 and $115).

Harrah’s Resort counters with an equally historic name for the ages. B.B. King, the 85-year-old undisputed king of the blues, will welcome the new year from the stage of The Concert Venue (10pm; tickets are $45, $55 and $75).

Folksy Canadian-born balladeer and songwriter Sarah McLachlan, provides a mellow end to 2010 in the Circus Maximus Theater at Caesars Atlantic City (9pm; $70, $90 and $115).

Resorts Atlantic City doesn’t have a king in its Superstar Theatre, but it does have a prince. Bobby Vinton, the so-called Polish Prince who was one of the top-selling pop singers of the ’60s and early ’70s, returns to the Boardwalk for his first gig in about five years. Vinton will also play a New Year’s Day show at Resorts (Dec. 31 at 10:30pm; $35, $45 and $55; Jan. 1 at 8pm; $25 and $35).

The rock band Maroon 5 will attract a younger crowd of New Year’s Eve revelers at the House of Blues at Showboat on Dec. 31 (9pm; $65 and $75), while comedian Joel McHale, host of the E! network comedy series The Soup (and who’s also seen on the NBC sitcom Community, sends 2010 out with a laugh in Borgata’s Music Box (7pm; $65; 10:30pm; $65 and $75).

The hits keep coming on the first day of 2011 when country superstar Carrie

Underwood, who recently won a staggering six awards at the American Country Awards, will raise the roof of Borgata’s Event Center (8pm; $95, $135, $155 and $185). One floor down in the casino’s intimate Music Box, the original Jersey Boy, Frankie Valli, will become the room’s first headliner of the new year (9pm; $65).

Modern rock band Third Eye Blind sees it way into 2011 from the stage of the House of Blues at Showboat (8pm; $37.50 and $45), while the soulful R&B trio The O’Jays, which still includes Eddie Levert from the original lineup formed 53 years ago, sings its hits at the A.C. Hilton (8pm; $50).

In addition to the main showroom fare, the casinos are also offering a variety of demographically diverse alternative entertainment and events to celebrate the holiday. Jerry Blavat, who this year celebrated his 50th anniversary as the Delaware Valley’s preeminent DJ and entertainer, continues a long-standing New Year’s tradition by hosting a buffet dinner party and dance (read: a record hop) in the Tiara Ballroom at Trump Taj Mahal (Dec. 31 at 9pm; $125).

At Caesars Atlantic City, Gossip Girl actress Leighton Meester will host a party at the Dusk nightclub (10pm; $100). Harrah’s Resort raises a few eyebrows on Jan. 1 when Sasha Grey, the adult film star, mainstream actress (The Girlfriend Experience and Entourage) and music performer hosts a 2011 Kick Off Party on New Year’s Day at The Pool After Dark (10pm; prices start at $20).

Finally, for those who want to begin partying a little early, rapper Wiz Khalifa works the House of Blues at Showboat (Dec. 29 at 8pm; Dec. 30 at 9pm; $22.50). N

Club Harlem was once one of Atlantic City’s main attractions

ing, “Pop [Williams] wanted a white man as a partner because he wanted to expand the place, and in those days, the banks weren’t lending money to black men.”

Pop and Clifton got their green, and turned the walls to red-and-gold velvet.

Debonair promoter Larry Steele packaged his annual Smart Affairs tour for Miami Beach and Las Vegas as well as Club Harlem. The dancers stayed sleek, the singers dusky, the comics razor-sharp. Then the inevitable decline.

In the early morning of Easter Monday, 1972, a shootout inside Club Harlem triggered a melee and resulted in five deaths.

Philadelphia gangs battling over drugs were fingered as the culprits. In truth, this musical mother lode was already on the skids. Soon, the arrival of casino hotels on the Boardwalk sealed the demise of the streetfront clubs.

Club Harlem switched off its red-hot marquee in 1986. Six years later, a December nor’easter shook the structure and crumpled the famous sign. Two weeks after that, bulldozers leveled the storied building.

A few loyalists rescued some of Club Harlem’s inimitable texture: chairs, booths, padded interior doors, onstage props, vintage photographs — even the famous sign. These appointments were sequestered in storage rooms, awaiting the call back to center stage, perhaps in a new or existing museum.

Meanwhile, the dancing dynamo whirling about the stage-in-the-sky is Peg Leg Bates. And those one-liners are being slung by comedian Slappy White. The beautiful songstresses with their sultry voices are Nancy Wilson and Damita Jo, and vocal stylists Billy Daniels, Joe Williams and Brook Benton weave their spell as well. Dinah Washington and her musical heir, Aretha Franklin, are belting to the heavens.

They all played Club Harlem, as did many more. Where the bricks and mortar came alive, and the adrenaline never quit. N

HE ADDRESS WAS 32 NORTH Kentucky Avenue, and it was a place where the music — and the night — never died. If the entire block, including the likes of Grace’s Little Belmont and the Wonder Garden bar, was a jazz mecca, Club Harlem was the primary shrine.

Shifting silhouettes painted on wall mirrors mimicked flesh-and-blood dancers onstage, as musicians roared through their sets at all hours. Sunday mornings brought 5am “breakfast” shows, with breakfast consisting of pretzels and a chaser. The top black entertainers in the country took the stage at Club Harlem and performed for an audience that was mostly white.

Soulful Billie Holiday sang here, flamboyant bandleader Cab Calloway conducted, and Sammy Davis Jr. danced up a storm.

The Sepia Revue and Beige Beauts dazzled with their costumes and movement, Chris Columbo beat the drums, “Hot Lips” Paige blew his trumpet. “Moms” Mabley, George Kirby, and other comics — including one of the rare white performers booked here, Lenny Bruce — grabbed laughs, but Club Harlem was known for its music. Headliners appearing elsewhere in town often showed up after finishing their acts to take in the wee small hours.

Club founder Leroy “Pop” Williams said that he chose the name Harlem because “a lot of black people live there.” But on Kentucky Avenue, excitement was colorblind. At Club Harlem, the streetfront exterior only hinted at the magic within.

Columbo, who piloted the house band for 34 straight seasons, often warmed up with guitarist “Wonderful” Floyd Smith and jazz organist “Wild Bill” Davis in one of two lounges before the main show. Crowds jamming the big room were known to exceed the capacity of 900.

Williams had converted the dance hall Fitzgerald’s Auditorium into Club Harlem in 1935, and in the early days, the new venue offered more than just music. By day, it took bets on the ponies, and funneled gamblers into the backroom of an adjacent building for a go at blackjack and craps.

In 1951, Williams and his brother, Clifton, recruited additional partners, and the marquee eventually bore the name “Clifton’s” in large electric lettering, topped by a noteshaped electrified sign that said “Club Harlem.” One of the new business partners was Ben Alten, who had left the Paradise Club on Illinois Avenue. Years later, Alten was quoted in the Atlantic City Press as say-

2010’s Album Picks

Other favorite from 2010

albums

Sade - Soldier of Love

The music we ‘raved’ about for the past 12 months, plus other choice albums released this year.

By Jeff Schwachter

L

ooking for a good best-of-2010 music list? Before you start mining the Internet for such exstensive and comprehensive lists, we have pulled out some of the best music we raved about this year in our “Raves & Faves” section, which appears each week on our “Coasting” page. Plus, we’ve added a few albums we loved this year, but didn’t have the space or time to rave about.

Gil Scott-Heron I’m New Here On Gil Scott-Heron’s first new album in 16 years, the rust-voiced revolutionary sounds as vital as ever. It’s a mix of spooky futuristic blues; strange, drenched-in-synths soundscapes and a few poignant covers, including the title track borrowed from labelmate (XL Recordings) Smog.

Mose Allison The Way of the World One of America’s greatest yet under-the-radar songwriters churned out his first album in a decade.

The piano man’s dynamite mix of soulful blues and jazz proves he’s still one of the best links from the ’50s to the present. The majestic Joe Henry produced the set for the -ANTI label.

d e c e m b e r 1 6 , 2 0 1 0 / A C W e e k ly. c o m

Michael Jackson This Is It A free On Demand coupon led us to check out this 2009 doc on the late King of Pop back in March. Captivating, entertaining and a glimpse into a man who will never be duplicated, the film is a must-see for Jackson fans. So is the December release Michael, a collection of 10 songs Jackson was working on prior to his death.

Broken Bells The new self-titled debut from the odd pairing of the Shins’ James Mercer and Gnarls Barkley’s Brian Burton (aka Danger Mouse) is perfect springtime music, which is equally nice during the winter we have since discovered.

MGMT Congratulations The Brooklyn duo MGMT seemed to come out of nowhere with 2008’s Oracular Spectacular — or maybe out of space — but it’s been mixing crazy sounds since the early ’00s. The group’s latest is even better.

The Rolling Stones Exile on Main St. (Reissue) The double-disc remastered version of this classic Stones album features a whole disc of unreleased tunes and many of them are the best on the album, including the uncovered “Plundered My Soul.”

The Black Keys Brothers One of the best albums of 2010, and one of the most creative, with a psychedelic blues sound stirred up by the duo from Akron, Ohio. The dudes’ best effort yet.

Simple and startling.

The New Pornographers Together The latest album from the Vancouver indie band — its fifth — is sublime power pop. Featuring the vocals of Neko Case along with a supergroup of Canadian rockers, the band is a blast to listen to — especially in the vinyl format.

John Legend & the Roots Wake Up This colaboration is one of the best-sounding in a long time. And you can tell that Legend and Philly’s Roots were having a ball tackling such songs as the title track, Curtis Mayfield’s “Hard Times” and other socially minded songs from the ’70s.

Grinderman Grinderman 2 Aussie Nick Cave’s side project — featuring members of his Bad Seeds —

put out its first album in 2007. This sequel continues the feel of that first album, but is even more improvisational, open-ended and sonically adventurous. The spontataiety of the writing is the key here an the result is a window into Cave’s mind like never before.

Neil Young Le Noise Produced by echo king Daniel Lanois, who produced Dylan’s 1997 Grammy winner Time Out of Mind, Young’s latest is by far his best since 1992’s Harvest Moon and the song “Hitchhiker” is among his best ever.

Elton John/Leon Russell The Union This collaboration between Sir Elton and his “biggest influence in the late ’60s and early ’70s,” singer-songwriter Leon Russell, may be the surprise “comeback” album of the year.

Produced by Grammy winner T Bone Burnett and featuring a stellar band and guest spots by the likes of Neil Young, Brian Wilson, Robert Randolph and others, the album features 14 great songs, including the perfect opener “If It Wasn’t For Bad.” West Coast Seattle Boy: The Jimi Hendrix Anthology After years of legal wrangling, Sony’s Legacy division has finally been able to release a compelling and much-anticipated career-spanning Hendrix collection. The deluxe 4 CD/1 DVD set includes rare early recordings, as well as some intimate hotel-room recordings that Hendrix made himself. The price tag is reasonable for all formats, including the single CD “Best of” and the vinyl box set.

Cee-Lo Green The Lady Killer The singing half of Gnarls Barkley released his third solo album in November.

Jonathan Richman O Moon, Queen of Night on Earth Jonathan Richman, whose Boston band the Modern Lovers linked the Velvet Underground and the Sex Pistols on the band’s legendary 1976 selftitled debut, is like no other living songwriter.

Richman’s latest is a spare, stark and acoustic sequel to 2008’s Because Her Beauty Is Raw and Wild. With his muchacho Tommy Larkins backing him on drums, Richman plays scrappy yet beautiful jazz chords on an acoustic guitar, while singing in English, French and Spanish. n

Gift of Good Guiding

This holiday season, the Atlantic City Free Public Library is donating dozens of books to area day-care centers as part of its â&#x20AC;&#x153;Go Reading Togetherâ&#x20AC;? initiative.

By Ray Schweibert

O

NE BIT OF WISDOM THAT ALL PARENTS hopefully attempt to impart to their children is that knowledge is power, and that an education is a gift that canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be taken away.

The Atlantic City Free Public Library (ACFPL) works toward that target on a daily basis and through numerous educational initiatives, among them its â&#x20AC;&#x153;Go Reading Togetherâ&#x20AC;? project that encourages parents to instill a love of reading in their children.

Recently the ACFPL kicked off a literacy initiative that included donating display shelves filled with 30 to 50 books (based on a centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enrollment) to 11 licensed day-care and child-learning centers throughout Atlantic City.

Savor the Flay-vor

Bobby Flay’s Borgata restaurant is the only one in his dining empire that is a steak house

By Frank Gabriel

D EOCNE TMHB E0 R0 , 1 2 60 , 1200 1/ 0 A /C W AC L YO. M COM M E EWKELEYK. C

OR A GUY WHO DROPPED OUT of high school at 17, Bobby Flay’s career hasn’t turned out too shabby.

The New York City native’s culinary identity initially took shape at Joe Allen’s famed restaurant in the theater district, where his father was also a partner.

A young cook who impressed Allen so much that the owner offered to pay his tuition at New York’s French Culinary Institute, Flay went on to earn their first Outstanding Graduate award in 1993. In two decades since, the chef has become a Food Network fixture, cookbook author and owner of more than 10 restaurants.

Atlantic City’s outpost of this empire, at the Borgata, holds the unique distinction of being his only steak house. The room is warm with tones of dark brown wood throughout. Southwest touches — like a row of cacti on a central shelf — add details reinforcing Flay’s persona.

Also worth mentioning is that it offers one of the swankiest lounge areas we know of in a casino restaurant, replete with overstuffed couches. True to his Big Apple roots, there is a definite big-city, bustling, full-of-energy feel. Staffers are well trained and disciplined, with plenty of personnel working on this off-season weekday evening.

For us at least, nothing screams “steak house” quite like an icy-cold oyster starter. These pretties, six Prince Edward Island natives, were fat, fresh and full of briny liquor. We also liked that our wellspoken server knew the variety when we inquired without having to consult his

kitchen. That’s a real professional. He was thoughtful enough to further provide us with a house-made bottle of hot pepper sauce to augment the traditional cocktail and mignonette.

A night’s addition app of king crab brought a heaping portion — three long, spindly legs plus a claw portion the size of a small hammer. There’s a reason why brave maritimers risk their lives searching for these creatures in the world’s most dangerous waters. Sweet, but with a hint of the Pacific’s salt still intact, we’re guessing these royal crabs were delivered fresh and never frozen. Alongside, a kicky whole-grain mustard sauce compliment-

ed and intensified the crab.

We split an order of lobster and crispy squid salad with hot-pepper dressing as a middle course. This delivered mounds of impossibly thin-cut crustacean and mollusk. The seafood had been tempura battered, expertly flash-fried and tossed with greens. Striped and flanked by a pair of punguent sauces, one auburn, one verdant. This superb item is one we would return to try over and over.

My dining partner’s main, the shrimp scampi, included five colossal shrimp pan-seared and presented atop a bed of creamy rice flecked with smoky green chiles. Possessing plenty of heat, and just

the right ratio of garlic to lemon, this southwest-tinged take on an Italian classic worked well. My companion and I crossed swords often, with her chasing away my fork intent on pilfering precious rice.

A Philly-style New York strip steak was crusted with salt and pepper, served exactly as requested, Pittsburgh rare. Sidecar ramekins of an outstanding cheese sauce and carmelized onions accompanied. We’d seen Flay make this sauce — a creative provolone-inflused béchamel — during the broadcast of his Throwdown program against Philly cheesesteak master Tony Luke. Although bested by Luke, we still thought it a fine idea and were delighted to see it on the Atlantic City menu. The beef was lovely, ruby-red, properly rested to allow its natural moisture time to recollect prior to facing the knife.

Sides, like most steak houses, are all a la carte. From a list of 10, we chose the Brooklyn hash browns and roasted mushrooms and onions. The “browns,” prepared casserole-style, were dark in color and crisped. The fungi and alum appeared to be “confied,” or cooked in a crock with a minimal infusion of olive oil. Both serving vessels left our table emptied.

Desserts included retro treat Baked Alaska, filled with house-made caramel ice cream, finished with warm dark chocolate sauce and a new addition, Mexican vanilla cheesecake. The New York specialty brought a dome of creamy, mildly spicy sweet, tickling our noses via the aromatherapy of quality vanilla. N E-mail Frank Gabriel at fgabriel@acweekly.com

cean City dermatologist Steven Fenichel was just a young intern in Toronto in the 1970s when he would have an experience with a patient that would impact him to this day, at the age of 63.

Then in oncology, he had a patient with testicular cancer. The cancer was treatable, but at a severe price to the patient.

“That’s a curable form of cancer if you go through the regimen and the chemotherapy treatments,” Fenichel tells Atlantic City Weekly. “But this patient reacted very violently to the treatment. He was vomiting and retching to the point that he was ripping up his insides. He then refused the chemo treatment.”

But in the ’70s, as today, another less legal treatment was out there, and somehow, the patient did manage to find a drug that was thought of as recreational — marijuana.

However the substance was acquired, Fenichel could not argue with the results.

“It had a very dramatic effect on this patient,” he says. “Eventually, it calmed down his reactions to the point that he could stand the chemo. This young man had been prescribed all types of anti-nausea drugs and treatments. When he finally could take the chemo treatment, the doctors said, ‘Well, the drugs must have worked.’ He said, ‘Not your drugs. They didn’t work at all.’”

Fenichel may not have known it at the time, but this and observations of other patients — especially one patient with Multiple Sclerosis, who dramatically gained muscle control when using marijuana — through the years would make him a proponent of medical marijuana and one of many voices pushing the state to stop delaying and finally make New Jersey the 14th state in the nation to offer the treatment.

The issue came to a head this week when the New Jersey State Senate voted to overturn rules recently proposed by Gov. Chris Christie to govern the growing and sale of medical marijuana.

Former Gov. Jon Corzine actually signed a medical marijuana bill in New Jersey into law shortly before leaving office, but implementation has been delayed as the Christie administration reviewed regulations.

Christie proposed the new rules earlier this month in a compromise with Democratic majority leaders that caught some legislators off guard. The amended rules immediately set off a wave of controversy. The Senate vote gives the administration 30 days to further amend the rules.

At the center of the controversy are proposed rules to limit the amount of THC, or the marijuana’s potency, how and when marijuana can be prescribed, and the number of cultivation and distribution centers that will be allowed.

Many advocates felt Christie’s restrictions would actually stop patients from getting the treatment they need. They found an ally in Sen. Nicholas P. Scutari (D-Linden), who sponsored the recent measure to have the rules reworked.

“The administration has tried painstakingly to make the medical marijuana regulations as prohibitive as possible for patients,” said Scutari. “It’s time the governor and his administration stopped creating unnecessary delays to our medical marijuana program and put forward regulations that comply with the law, so we can finally get relief to the sick and dying patients who so desperately need it.”

Christie, however, pushed for the rules out of fears that the medical marijuana law would be subverted by those looking to use the drug for recreational purposes.

“Working together, we have come to an agreement that will prevent further delay to patients who need relief from the symptoms of debilitating illnesses,” Christie said in a statement. “At the same time, we are protecting the interests of all residents of the state of New Jersey by preventing some of the abuses that we have seen in other states.”

States such as California have had major problems with their medical marijuana

laws, with widespread reports of abuse.

Christie has labeled the Senate measure as playing “politics” with a major health issue. Under the governor’s proposed regulations, six regional centers — two each in the north, central and southern parts of the state — would be authorized to grow and distribute marijuana.

But part of the debate is clearly the stigma surrounding the use of marijuana.

Even though many patients being treated for pain and nausea, and quite often terminally ill patients, are regularly prescribed narcotics and painkillers that are often also abused, marijuana seems to carry a special social nervousness.

Currently, the rules would limit the THC content to 10 percent (THC levels in illegally sold marijuana can vary greatly, but is often stronger than 10 percent), which advocates say is not strong enough to help patients. Christie’s new proposals did not raise that level.

“I think that with that restriction, this will simply be an exercise in futility,” says Fenichel. “Holding marijuana to only 10 percent THC has no hope of providing substantive relief to patients. It’s absolutely absurd and I really hope that isn’t an nonnegotiable point.”

A second area of concern is provisions limiting physicians’ ability to prescribe marijuana. The rules, for example, include a list of conditions that could be legally treated. Christie’s compromise did increase the amount of conditions on the list, but advocates feel the list of conditions is still too inflexible.

In fact, all through the legislation are pit-

falls, say advocates, such as a requirement that patients be weaned off marijuana as soon as possible.

The entire debate at times does seem to get bogged down in politics.

The situation is reminiscent of the fight Atlantic City underwent in 2004 to begin a needle exchange program of hypodermic syringes to slow the spread of AIDS and HIV among intravenous drug users.

While the two issues are quite different, they both involved programs that bucked public attitudes about illegal drug use.

“I don’t know enough about the particulars going on right now to give a really salient opinion on the marijuana debate in Trenton,” says Ron Cash, Atlantic City’s health and human services director. “But I do support medical marijuana, but with the necessary restrictions. I think it is a necessary component of pain moderations, but sometimes in New Jersey, we worry so much about doing things exactly right, that we delay getting the treatment out there.

“We saw that with our syringe exchange programs,” adds Cash. “It’s been a very successful program, but it took us so long to get the program in place. It just comes down to being reasonable and making the treatment available. Obviously you need restrictions to avoid some of the problems you’ve seen in other states and to keep it from being black-marketed. But we should still move forward.”

Despite the debate, the law is expected to be implemented next year and as early as spring. In the meantime, many New Jersey patients will continue to treat themselves in the same way that a young man did in Toronto as Dr. Fenichel observed.

“There is nothing more urgent for patients that are facing chronic pain,” says Fenichel. “This isn’t about the luxury of changing your consciousness or the effects of marijuana. This is about relief from the pain, the nausea and debilitating symptoms so many patients feel. For them, nothing is more urgent.” n

Mismatched Jolie, Depp.

‘The Tourist’ fails to ignite; Oscar race begins with Golden Globe nominations, critics’ awards.

By Lori Hoffman

I

miss the style Alfred Hitchcock brought to the movies with his sophisticated and sexy thrillers. It is not easy to find the right mix of suspense and romance to balance a comedic undertone with true menace thse days.

Seeing The Tourist reminded me that Hitchcock never found a true successor. Brian DePalma tried to carry on Hitchcock’s torch, but his films were too bloody and lacked wit. The Tourist would have been the perfect Hitchcock vehicle; a story about an innocent man, a female spy and a mystery super thief everybody wants to capture.

Writer/director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck was given the assignment to deliver a Hitchcockian thriller. On paper it was an excellent choice. He is best known for the brilliant Cold War drama, The Lives of Others, one of my favorite films of the last decade. The director is hampered by an acting combi-

Even Hitchcock might have had trouble lighting a match under these two.

nation, Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp, which again seemed brilliant on paper.

Alas, the two lack any chemistry and without that spark, the story, which is filled with obvious choices and a twist that will fool no one, falls flat.

It takes awhile for the collapse, so, for a time, The Tourist seems like an OK romantic thriller, with Depp as a Wisconsin math teacher named Frank who is in over his head when the ravishing spy Elise (Jolie) decides to use him as a decoy.

She picks him up on a train in Italy — Hitchcock’s favorite mode of transport.

Before long Frank is being chased by cops and crooks alike because they think he is the mysterious Alexander, a sophisticated embezzler who stole $2 billion from a mobster, and who owes the British government millions in back taxes.

The Tourist are bland, and the romance between Elise and Frank would make bland look like an upgrade. Even Hitchcock might have had trouble lighting a match under these two, or maybe they just realized the story lacked energy and focus and they followed suit.

The Tourist is a painful reminder that the Master of Suspense is long gone and nobody has picked up the slack.

Golden Globes, Critics Awards

The Oscar season is in full-tilt mode now that the Golden Globe nominations have been announced and a slew of critics’ organizations have announced their favorites.

This first blush of concrete evidence suggests that the Oscar race will come down to a battle between David Fincher’s The Social Network and Christopher Nolan’s Inception. Both earned Golden Globe nominations, along with (in the drama category) Black Swan, The Fighter and The King’s Speech. In the comedy/musical category, which doesn’t matter except that there are 10 best picture slots, the Globe choices were Burlesque, Alice In Wonderland, The Kids are Alright, Red and The Tourist. They obviously couldn’t find any good films for this category, although a lot of critics liked The Kids Are Alright more than I did.

The acting nods included such expected names as Jesse Eisenberg (The Social Network), James Franco (127 Hours), Mark Wahlberg (The Fighter), Colin Firth (The King’s Speech), Natalie Portman (Black Swan), Jennifer Lawrence (Winter’s Bone) and Nicole Kidman (Rabbit Hole).

Boardwalk Empire As for the numerous critics’ organizations, the consensus for best picture is The Social Network, selected by the National Board of Review, the New York Film Critics Circle, the Los Angeles Film Critics Association, the Boston Society of Film Critics, and the New York Film Critics Online. The acting awards were more diversified with Franco, Eisenberg, Firth, Lawrence, Portman and Annette Bening (The Kids Are Alright) picking up awards. n

Actor Steve Buscemi, who portrays the fictional character Nucky Thompson (based on the real Nucky Johnson) on the show, was nominated for best actor.

Kelly MacDonald, who plays Margaret Schroeder in Boardwalk Empire, was nominated for best supporting actress. It was announced earlier this year that HBO will air will a second season of the hit show.

Cable TV shows snagged more nominations this year than network TV shows did, with cable shows getting 35 of the 54 nominations available. oardwalk mpire icks HBO led the pack with 12 total nominations. p olden lobe oms Showtime had eight nominations for On a local note, for the small-screen Golden Globe nominations, HBO’s thier cable TV shows, such as Dexter.
