M A I N L I N E U N I TA R I A N C H U R C H D E D I C AT E S “ B L A C K L I V E S M AT T E R ” B A N N E R Community Ceremony Saturday, September 10 at 2 p.m. ain Line Unitarian Church (MLUC), 816 South Valley Forge Road in Devon, Pennsylvania, will hold a dedication service for its “Black Lives Matter” banner on Saturday, September 10, 2016 at 2 p.m. The banner will be placed in front of the church at the intersection of South Valley Forge Road and Maplewood Avenue in Devon. The dedication service is free and open to the public. The Unitarian Universalist congregation voted overwhelmingly to display the banner at its annual meeting on June 5. MLUC’s minister, the Rev. Dr. Neal R. Jones, explained the purpose of the banner. “It’s not sufficient to say that all lives matter,” said Jones. “That’s too vague and generic. It glosses over the reality of racism, which is still pervasive and persistent in our country, as evidenced by the racial disparities in our prisons, schools, housing, healthcare, media, incomes, jobs, and even life expectancies. As people of faith, we must assert that black lives matter because our society still asserts that they do not.” In addition to the Rev. Dr. Jones, the banner dedication service will include three other speakers: Andrea Durham, an attorney and member of the Unitarian Society of Germantown, which also has a “Black Lives Matter” banner; the Rev. Tom Beers of Central Baptist Church in Wayne, the first church in the surrounding community to display a “Black Lives Matter” banner; and attorney Anita Friday, who was featured in the

cover story of the November edition of the Philadelphia Magazine, “Racial Profiling on the Main Line.” Founded in 1958, the Main Line Unitarian Church is a member congregation of the Unitarian Universalist Association. Like the other 1,040 UU congregations in the United States, Canada and overseas, MLUC is democratic in polity and operation; church members govern themselves, joining together in a seeking faith with an inclusive liberal religious tradition. Unitarian Universalism is dedicated to “deeds not creeds,” affirming the principles of human dignity, compassion, justice, reason, and inclusiveness instead of a religious dogma. Having recently completed a 3.5 million building renovation fundraising campaign, the 600-plus members of MLUC have a mission that goes beyond walls and mortar: “Together, we transform lives through love, service, and our welcoming faith.” The Main Line Unitarian Church is located at 816 South Valley Forge Road in Devon. In addition to two Sunday services, at 9 a.m. and 11 a.m., the Church offers meditation groups and instruction, religious education classes and programs for all ages, a host of special lectures and programs, and social action initiatives that reach into neighboring communities and out into the world. For information, call the Church at 610-688-8332, or visit the website: www.mluc.org.

floor and open a new 5,500 square foot facility in King of Prussia in addition to the space at the piano factory. “We need to reduce our inventory by one third,” Galessini said “so we will be having a huge sale now through our move. This will be by far the largest sale of instruments we have ever had.” A Philadelphia institution since 1891, Cunningham Piano carries and restores the finest brands including their own Cunningham Piano, Steinway, Bösendorfer, Baldwin and more. In addition to the move, Cunningham Piano was just named Artist Services of Greater Philadelphia for Yamaha which is the most widely used piano by artists from rock to classical. “This means when an artist is in town and needs a Yamaha piano, we will be the company to provide it for them,” Galassini explained. Throughout the world, Cunningham, the oldest piano company in Philadelphia and one of the oldest in the world, is associated with quality. In the 1930s when he composed Porgy and Bess, George Gershwin used a Cunningham piano. At Cunningham’s current location, there is a wall of celebrity who’s who photos including: Luciano Pavoratti Marvin Hamlisch, Marc Andre Hamelin, Yuja Wang, Andre Watts, Garrick Ohlsson, Bobby McFerrin, M. Night Shaymalan, Robert Diniro, Jamie Foxx, and many other stars from near and far who have trusted their piano to Cunningham. Last summer during the Pope’s visit, Cunningham Piano provided the organ used during the Papal mass. Cunningham Piano Company was started in 1891 by Patrick J. Cunningham, an Irish immigrant with a craft and a dream. Through his leadership, commitment to quality, and a keen business sense Cunningham Piano Company quickly became
one of Philadelphia’s most respected makers of pianos. Its business shifted in 1943 to restoring pianos—bringing back the original design, sound and luster of any high-quality piano. Today, the pianos come into the shop from all over the world and highly-skilled craftsmen can spend a year or more bringing each one back to life. “It makes sense for us to have a showroom in the factory. Many times when people come to the current showroom to buy a piano, we take them to the factory around the corner to show them how the pianos are made and restored. We also offer tours of the factory to the public,” Galassini added. Galassini came into the business by chance after a housemate decided to purchase a used Upright Piano for their house in Fairmount. The piece needed some updates. He had heard of Cunningham, but at the time, didn’t know the technicalities of fixing a piano. “If you would have asked me where pianos came from, I would say, you know, the piano store or a factory,” said Galassini. “I didn't have a concept of what went into it.” Galassini and co-owner Oliver both studied music in college. In order to complete his major, Oliver had to choose an instrument. He chose the piano and his passion for the vocal arts brought him to Philadelphia, where he could be closer to a more operatic scene. He began working for the piano company in 1997. “This is an exciting time for Cunningham Piano filled with growth and expansion while holding on to the history of the company. We will still have a presence in Germantown and our new King of Prussia location expands our accessibility to the region,” he said. THANKS FOR READING CITY SUBURBAN NEWS!

Edgar Allan Poe spent his most productive years in Philadelphia, and many have speculated that his tales may have been inspired amidst the graves and gardens of Laurel Hill Cemetery. Newly opened when Poe took up residence in the city, the growing necropolis could draw more than 150,000 visitors in one season alone… Surely, Poe could well have been among those curious souls. As the sun sets over the Cemetery’s historic tombs, The Mechanical Theater will bring Poe’s most haunting tales to life. Afterwards, a walking tour featuring stories about the literature that he produced, and the many friends, associates and enemies who traveled within his circles will be offered. Bring your own blankets or beach chairs, picnics, and/or beverages. The program will take place on Thursday, September 1 at 7 p.m. (with a pre-scheduled rain date of Thursday, September 8 at 7 p.m.). Gates open at 6 p.m. Ticket holders can check in at Laurel Hill Cemetery’s Gatehouse entrance, 3822 Ridge Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19132. Free parking is located in the lot directly across the street from the Gatehouse. The cost is $25/person general admission. Purchasing advance tickets is suggested. Tickets can be purchased at the door or online at www.thelaurelhillcemetery.org.

“100 T HINGS TO D O IN P HILADELPHIA B EFORE Y OU D IE ” Continued from front page
est in a national series of travel guides by Reedy Press, was just released. The guide was written by Irene Levy Baker, who has spent 25 years exploring Philadelphia. It includes tips she discovered while working with five local tourist bureaus, celebrity chefs, hotels and attractions. Baker is the owner of Spotlight Public Relations, a firm specializing in hospitality and restaurants. Prior to starting her public relations firm in 1998, Baker spent nearly a decade at the Philadelphia Convention and Visitors Bureau. “Travel writers are the most jaded travelers in the world,” said Baker, whose job it is to impress travel writers when they visit Philadelphia. “I noted what surprised and delighted them and I reveal the secrets in this new book.” The 100 things are divided into 5 categories: Food and Drink, Music and Entertainment, Culture and History, Sports and Recreation and Shopping and Fashion. Adding to its usefulness are mini-itineraries by season as well as recommendations for young families, families with teens, dates and emptynesters, and lists of free attractions, activities near the Pennsylvania Convention Center and places featured in movies. The book includes tried-and-true attractions and hidden gems, making it ideal for locals looking for a weekend adventure, businesses trying to entice potential candidates to move to Philadelphia or welcoming them once they arrive, transplants getting to know the city and, of course, for tourists. It can also be used a unique teacher gift, house-warming gift or placed on guest room nightstands. The book includes attractions in the city and in the surrounding counties. The guide is available online at www.100ThingsToDoInPhiladelphia.com for $16 plus tax and shipping.

Devon Prep Names New Admissions Director r. Kevin J. Mulholland of Media has been named the new Admissions Director at Devon Preparatory School. Mulholland, a Class of 2002 alumnus, succeeds Mr. Patrick Kane of Springfield, who now serves as the school’s Director of External Operations and is responsible for large gift donations. In his new post Mulholland will be responsible for developing recruitment strategies and initiatives, attracting qualified and diverse students, and building and maintaining relationships with students, parents and area schools. Mulholland comes to Devon Prep after several years as a Participant Services Administrator for The Vanguard Group in Malvern where he worked closely with clients, building longterm relationships. He also trained and mentored peers and new employees. Prior to Vanguard he served as the Communications Director of the College Planning Center, and an Associate Producer for Comcast SportsNet. Mulholland also served as the Assistant Director of Devon Prep’s Admissions Office in 2007. Mulholland is excited to return to his alma mater and is eager to take on this new challenge. “Devon has always been a place I’ve felt strongly about, and I feel I’ve been afforded an opportunity to come back and contribute in a meaningful and positive way,” he said. “As admissions director my goal is to grow the school, and to make sure as many stuMr. Kevin J. Mulholland of Media – the new Admissions dents as possible are able to come to Devon and have as Director at Devon Preparatory School. great and as lasting an experience as I had.” Having been a student in the middle school and upper school, an alumnus and an employee Mulholland believes his years of involvement with Devon Prep will be helpful in his new position. He has been connected to the school for nearly 20 years and feels that should help him relay what the school is all about to prospective parents and students. “Devon’s strength is in its size, in its cultivation of a family atmosphere, and in its ability to afford the students such a wide range of courses and activities,” he explained. “Students at Devon Prep are able to play sports, work on the musical, play in the band, support CAP, and contribute to Mock Trial, all while taking multiple AP courses—and that’s all in one year, not over the course of their scholastic career! “There’s strength in our longevity, as well,” he continued. “Many things have changed over the years, and the school has to continue to evolve, but at heart we are still the same place, focused on faith, family, and preparing students for life beyond Devon Prep.” Muholland earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Broadcast Journalism from the University of Maryland at College Park and is working on his MBA from Penn State University School of Graduate Studies. Devon Prep is a private, Catholic, college preparatory school for young men in grades six to 12, conducted by the Piarist Fathers.

Moore’s latest foray for social justice, accented with humor and satire, has the Oscar-winning documentary filmmaker (Bowling for Columbine, SICKO, and Capitalism, A Love Story) “invading” foreign lands, to “discover” what U.S. society can learn and borrow from our international neighbors. Several of Moore’s discoveries: in Italy, happy workers enjoy holidays and time off that would stun North Americans; in Germany, workers earn generous wages, and employers are penalized if they email their staff after hours or on weekends; and in Slovenia, a university education is free. Why, Moore asks, as only he can, can’t we learn from others the means of a more just society. Prepare be liberated!

Epic Church to Host #ForPhilly Serve Day on August 27 n Saturday, August 27, Epic Church will host its 2nd annual #ForPhilly Serve Day. The day is all about serving others. It’s about making a difference by helping people in need and bringing smiles. It’s Epic’s way of not just saying, but showing, that it is “For Philly.” More than 500 people will serve in 30 different service projects in Philadelphia on a single day. Lots of awesome things are happening that day. There will be a makeover for a teachers’ lounge in desperate need of a facelift at a Philadelphia high school. Four groups of volunteers will deliver treats and notes to show appreciation to first responders at fire and police stations. Others will organize and package food donations that will be distributed by SHARE Food to needy families. Liberti Church, also of Philadelphia, has partnered with Epic for the Serve Day and will host, organize, and provide a meal and a movie for homeless at their facility on 17th Street in Center City. During Serve Day 2015 last year, volunteers brought smiles to children (and adults) at Love Park by providing photo ops with superheroes and princesses, giving out balloon animals, and doing face painting. That will happen again this year. Another fun project was grilling meat and serving lunch to veterans at a local group residence for formerly homeless male veterans. This time, the organization will provide haircuts and dental care to the same group. Volunteers will also clean up and beautify the outdoor space of the residence. Community service projects have been a big part of Epic’s culture since the church started in 2008. Lead pastor Kent Jacobs explains, “In a time where many churches are known for what they’re against, we want Epic to be known by what we are for. We are for Philly.” Last year, Epic congregants volunteered more than 13,500 hours of community service and spent more than $20,000 to support community projects. Epic meets in four locations in the city, offering eight Sunday services. The locations are in Manayunk at the United Artists Theater located at 3720 Main Street, in Center City at the Suzanne Roberts Theatre at 480 S. Broad Street, in Fairmount at the Franklin Learning Center at 616 N. 15th Street, and in Roxborough at Roxborough High School at 6498 Ridge Avenue.

Timotheos Petrin was a member of the European Union Youth Orchestra and today studies at the Curtis Institute. Hope for Those with MS: Find. Stop. Cure. Multiple Sclerosis affects over 400,000 individuals in the U.S. and as many as 2.5 million people worldwide. Research to find the cause and stop the progression of the disease is being spearheaded in Philadelphia by Dr. Jeffrey Greenstein, M.D., a board certified neurologist. Through annual fundraising efforts, his non-profit Institute continues to perform the highest quality laboratory based research and provide outstanding patient education. “Curing MS is my life’s work,” explains Dr. Greenstein who worked at the National Institute of Health before becoming chairman and Professor of Neurology at Temple University School of Medicine. At the same time he served as the Director of the Multiple Sclerosis Center at Temple University Hospital then transitioned to Graduate Hospital and opened his private practice, the Multiple Sclerosis Institute, in order to focus all his efforts exclusively on MS. “MS not only changes the lives of those affected by it,” he adds, “but touches the lives of their families and friends. My mission in funding MSRI is the find the cause, stop the progression and cure the disease so that those with MS, as well as future generations, can enjoy a life free from its symptoms.” Past benefits for MSRI have raised funds to underwrite the cost of a research assistant to staff their state of the art laboratory. This fall’s 9/24 Vivace! II benefit concert will ensure that Dr. Greenstein and his team continue to explore the mysteries of T cells, a class of immune cells that seem to hold promise in suppressing dangerous immune responses. Such exploration could lead to new and unique treatments and therapies for MS and other immune diseases. In addition to concert ticket sales, donors may support MSRI through the sponsorship of the silent auction and the evening’s Program Book. Donations range from $125 for a small ad to $5000 as a Platinum Sponsor enjoying 4 tickets, a full page ad and signage at the concert. MSRI is a 501(c)(3) non profit (Federal Tax ID #20-1354368). For information about the concert or the Institute, call 267687-7027 or email info@MSResearchInstitute.org.

New Patent Issued to Lankenau Institute for Medical Research Professor for Methods That May Help Prevent Esophageal Cancer new patent that outlines methods for the treatment of Barrett’s esophagus by orally administered zinc was awarded by the U.S. Patent Office to James Mullin, PhD, professor at Main Line Health’s Lankenau Institute for Medical Research (LIMR). Patients with Barrett’s esophagus, the precancerous esophageal condition caused by long-term gastrointestinal reflux disease, have a significantly higher risk of developing cancer of the esophagus than the general population. Moreover, esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) has one of the most rapidly increasing cancer incidences in the United States. If EAC is not caught early, it has one of the lowest five-year survival rates of any cancer: less than 10 percent. Finding a way to effectively treat Barrett’s and stop its progression to EAC is paramount among those in the gastroenterology community. Currently, no cancer-preventive options exist for this condition. In recent years, researchers have shown in preclinical studies that a deficiency of the common mineral zinc can promote the development of esophageal cancer, and that proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) – prescription medicines that have almost universal use among Barrett’s patients – can block the uptake of zinc into the bloodstream. Thus, the medications meant to relieve the symptoms of Barrett’s esophagus are, in turn, reducing a nutritional mineral that patients need to stave off progression of their disease to cancer. “Given that all Barrett’s patients take PPI drugs for their reflux symptoms, and that PPIs block zinc absorption into the bloodstream, the only meaningful zinc entry into Barrett’s cells would be topical delivery of the mineral to the Barrett’s tissue, which is achieved by our formulation,” said Dr. Mullin, whose study results were published in 2014 in the journal Therapeutic Delivery. “Our lab showed that our formulation of orally administered zinc was accessible to Barrett’s cells and capable of causing molecular changes in them. Zinc is truly acting as a drug here.” Dr. Mullin’s new patent, entitled “Compositions and Methods for the Prevention of Esophageal Cancer,” is for methods that comprise administering zinc to a patient’s esophagus either orally, topically or by implantable medical device. The patent also covers zinc combinations with other drugs that could provide even better cancer protection. LIMR has entered into negotiations with an outside company for the commercialization and marketing of a zinc-based, over-the-counter product for prophylactic treatment of Barrett’s. “Zinc is an inexpensive, readily available and safe supplement that many people take for nutritional enhancement,” said Dr. Mullin. “By determining the best way to apply zinc directly to the esophageal tissue, and demonstrating cancer preventive changes in the precancerous cells, we believe we may be able to help Barrett’s patients avoid the onset of cancerous lesions of the esophagus.” Dr. Mullin’s research at LIMR focuses on the role of gastrointestinal (tight junctional) leakiness in GI cancer, aging, infectious diseases and inflammatory diseases. In addition to serving as a professor at LIMR, Dr. Mullin is the director of research for the Department of Medicine, Division of Gastroenterology, at Lankenau Medical Center. He has authored and

co-authored more than 80 published manuscripts during his long and distinguished research career. In recognition of his many accomplishments, Dr. Mullin was elected a fellow to the American Gastroenterological Association in 2008. His research has been funded over the years by the National Institutes of Health, the National Institute of Aging, the State of Pennsylvania, and several philanthropic foundations. Founded in 1927, the Lankenau Institute for Medical Research (LIMR) is an independent, nonprofit biomedical research center located in suburban Philadelphia on the campus of Lankenau Medical Center. Part of Main Line Health, LIMR is one of the few freestanding, hospital associated medical research centers in the nation. The faculty and staff at the Institute are dedicated to advancing an understanding of the causes of cancer, heart disease and diabetes. This information is used to help improve diagnosis and treatment of these diseases as well as find ways to prevent them. LIMR is also committed to extending the boundaries of human health and well-being through technology development and the training of the next generation of scientists and physicians.

tate Rep. Pamela A. DeLissio, D-Montgomery/Phila., will host a free Senior Expo from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday, September 15 at Roxborough Memorial Hospital, 5800 Ridge Avenue. The Expo will be under the tent in the Rector Street parking lot. The Senior Expo will be held in conjunction with the Good Neighbor Day Health Fair sponsored by Roxborough Memorial Hospital. “I’m excited to again partner with Roxborough Memorial Hospital in this endeavor to connect our area’s older adults with information and services and to build on last year’s very successful event,” DeLissio said. “The Senior Expo will feature services offered by state agencies and not-for-profit organizations that provide services and programs for older adults. Thanks to my background in long-term care, I know that seniors are active and important members of the community – and that older adults are interested in life-long learning and opportunities for employment, in addition to a variety of health, home and other service needs.” DeLissio said she will continue to offer a diverse group of exhibitors at the expo to acknowledge seniors’ varied interests and needs. “For example, we are hoping to include opportunities to adopt a furry friend in need of a happy home, volunteer and work opportunities, and information on organizations such as Road Scholar – formally known as Elderhostel,” she said.

A new patent that outlines methods for the treatment of Barrett’s esophagus by orally administered zinc was awarded by the U.S. Patent Office to James Mullin, PhD, professor at Main Line Health’s Lankenau Institute for Medical Research (LIMR).
Representatives from the Philadelphia Corporation of Aging, SEPTA, Visiting Nurses Association, Philadelphia Gas Works, Community Legal Services and many other organizations will be available to provide information. “The Roxborough Memorial Hospital School of Nursing will be providing a Health Fair and performing a number of screenings during the Expo such as blood pressure, glucose, and mammograms (with prescription),” DeLissio said. “With my own personal recent diagnosis of breast cancer, I encourage women to take advantage of this opportunity if you are due (or past due) for a mammogram. Early detection is beneficial in providing the best treatment plan with the most optimal outcomes. “Folks can also call the hospital in advance at 215-487-4458 to schedule a flu shot and participate in a blood drive hosted by the American Red Cross. “My goal is to make sure that our area’s older citizens are not only aware of the services available to them, but also have access to the community resources that continue to keep them very engaged,” she said. The Senior Expo also will include free giveaways, including a day trip for two to the state Capitol to shadow DeLissio while she works in Harrisburg. A video of DeLissio discussing last year’s Senior Expo and this year’s activities can be viewed at this link. For info, call DeLissio’s district office at 215-482-8726.

Dread Scott’s “Ignorance is Strength,” from the Newspeak installation. “This is a world of profound polarization, exploitation, and suffering and billions are excluded from intellectual development and full participation in society,” Dread Scott explains. “It does not have to be this way and my art is part of forging a radically different world.” He notes that his work “illuminates the misery that this society creates for so many people and it often encourages the viewer to envision how the world could be.” Dread Scott works in a range of media including performance, photography, screen printing, video, installation and painting. His works can be hard-edged and poignant. His art has been exhibited at the MoMA PS1; the Contemporary Art Museum in Houston; The Walker Art Center in Minneapolis; the Pori Art Museum in Finland; and in the Whitney Museum’s inaugural exhibition at their new building. The Brooklyn Academy of Music presented his performance Dread Scott: Decision as part of their 30th Anniversary Next Wave Festival, and the Museum of Contemporary African Diasporan Arts presented Dread Scott: Welcome to America. Recent work has been presented in several showings in New York and his sculptures have been installed at Logan Square in Philadelphia. He first received national attention in 1989 when his art became the center of controversy over its use of the American flag. He was denounced by the President and the United States Senate, which soon after passed legislation to “protect the flag.” His opposition to this law resulted in a Supreme Court case and a landmark First Amendment decision. Dread Scott is the recipient of a Creative Capital Foundation grant; a Pollock Krasner Foundation grant; fellowships from the New York Foundation for the Arts; and was a resident at Art Omi International Artists Residency and the Workspace Residency at the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council. Additionally, his work has been integrated into academic curricula, discussed in art history classes, and featured in Henry Sayer’s “foundations” text, A World of Art. The gallery is located at 301 High Street. Free public parking is available on High Street and neighboring streets. Municipal parking areas are available off Lake Street (behind Little Beefs Deli) and near the Barnes and Noble shopping complex between New Street and Rowan Blvd. Admission to the gallery, lecture, and reception is free and open to the public. Regular gallery hours are Monday - Friday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Thursday - Saturday, 10 to 7 p.m. Directions can be found on the gallery website. For info, call 856-256-4521 or visit www.rowan.edu/artgallery. Support for programming at Rowan University Art Galleries has been made possible in part by funds from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts. THANKS FOR READING CITY SUBURBAN NEWS EVERY WEEK!
