Cedarbrook robbery spree is now solved

philadelphia

Cop charged as drug dealer UPPER MERION. A retired Norristown police sergeant is behind bars on charges that he was dealing crystal methamphetamine.

Jack Pennington, 66, of Upper Merion, was arrested Tuesday by Montgomery County authorities following a three-month investigation.

The arrest took place following an alleged purchase between Pennington and his supplier at King of Prussia Mall. Police recovered crystal methamphetamine with an estimated street value of $17,000 and $16,000 in cash. METRO RIKARD LARMA/METRO

A 30-year-old man has been arrested for a string of robberies in the Cedarbrook section.

Police said that between May 16 and June 18, Antoine Johnson allegedly entered several businesses armed with a handgun demanding money. He is also accused of robbing a woman at gunpoint in the area of Mount Pleasant Avenue and Williams Street.

PHILADELPHIA. The Philadel-

phia Federal Reserve Bank said its business activity index dropped to minus 16.6 from minus 5.8 in May, far below economists’ expectations for a reading of zero, according to a Reuters poll.

Any reading below zero indicates contraction in the region’s manufacturing. “It’s a pretty horrendous result,” economist Jeremy Lawson said. REUTERS

Rope stuffed down throat of dead body ROXBOROUGH. A 70-year-old

woman’s death has been ruled a homicide after a funeral home found 10 inches of rope stuffed down the woman’s throat.

The bizarre discovery was made at a Willow Grove funeral home as they prepared the body of Kathleen Mcewan. Police later arrested 49-year-old Geraldine Cherry.

Nicholas Fanucci ran Georges Perrier’s storied eatery from 2000-2002, when he decamped Philadelphia for the French Laundry in Yountville, Calif.; he returned this year when news spread that Perrier was offering the building and business for sale.

“People are surprisingly happy in our request to wear a jacket,” said Nicholas Fanucci, general manager and owner of the newly reopened Walnut Street restaurant Le Bec-Fin, which has a dress code for the beautiful central dining room.

The Gallic general manager

has overseen an interior decor renovation that restored the restaurant to the original splendor of its golden age, complete with gleaming silverware, starched napkins and two glittering crystal chande-

liers over the main dining room, whose capacity has been reduced from 18 to 11 tables to create a more intimate dining experience.

“The majority of our team is from the French Laundry and Per Se,” says Fanucci, referencing chef-owner Thomas Keller’s legendary destinations. The unabashedly French menu is the product of both classic technique and a modern approach to cuisine.

Newlyweds Lee Styer and Jessie Prawlucki, who co-own East Passyunk Avenue BYOB Fond, both put in time at Le

Bec-Fin. Styer did a year as sous chef; Prawlucki finished her three-and-a-half-year stint as pastry chef. “Chef Perrier definitely influenced me,” said Styer, who visited the restaurant for a preopening cocktail party.

Though the dining room decor is not a significant departure from the Paris salon it was originally meant to evoke, “It’s night and day in the kitchen,” added Styer.

117-year-old paper closing The Archdiocese of Philadelphia will lay off 45 employees and consolidate several offices to help close a $17 million deficit, officials announced Thursday.

Under the restructuring plan, the church will also stop publishing the 117-year-old Catholic Standard and Times,

a weekly newspaper that became a monthly last year, and Phaith Magazine will be suspended.

Archbishop Charles Chaput said the debt was not a result of recent litigation costs related to priest sex abuse, which he estimated two weeks ago at $11 million.

“I take this action with great reluctance, as one of several urgently needed steps to restore the local church to a healthy financial footing,” Chaput said of the layoffs.

Chaput said the changes should allow the archdiocese to balance its budget by next July. METRO/SDL

City budget to go down to the July 1 deadline RIKARD LARMA/METRO

Nutter isn’t nervous about a government shutdown.

CHIP Now Covers Braces!

Residents who haven’t been following the budget battle moving its way through City Hall will no doubt take notice if an agreement is not reached by its quickly-approaching June 30 deadline. In that case, the city will be stripped of its spending power, including the ability to make payroll and provide services ranging from trash pickup to public safety.

A source familiar with city government called the apparent lack of consensus between Council members and Mayor Michael Nutter’s administration an “aberration.” The two remaining sticking points are real estate taxation and raising additional funds for the embattled school district, with Nutter pushing for a property tax overhaul that would generate $94 million in revenue for education.

New property assessments will count, Nutter says PHILADELPHIA. Another possi-

ble scenario is that the administration could simply go ahead with the property values from the new AVI assessments slated to be completed in the fall while keeping the current tax rate.

Nutter would not say whether he would veto a budget, which would make it nearly impossible to meet the cutoff. “I don’t know even when the Council is, at this moment, going to vote on the budget,” he said Thursday.

“Possibly, it could be next week — that’s a lifetime in this business. I never make pronouncements about what I’m going to sign or not sign or anything like that.”

Facing criticism from powerful business lobbyists on one side and members of the school district’s blue-collar union on the other, Council on Thursday scheduled an additional June 28 meeting to their legislative calendar.

Zack Stahlberg of political watchdog Committee of Seventy said that the back and forth is not unusual. “They’re all politicians — most of them are of the same party — they can negotiate a deal,” he said.

“If somehow some way, that particular piece of legislation, upon someone filing suit, is struck down, we need to have a variety of back up plans,” Nutter said of the state safeguard. “Including either the ability to revisit this issue in what will be then the next fiscal year or the authority to lower millage rates, which currently we don’t have.” METRO

Commerce secretary resigns after car crashes WASHINGTON. U.S. Commerce

Secretary John Bryson, under investigation for his role in two car crashes on the same day this month, said on Thursday he was resigning to prevent distractions at the department he led for less than a year.

Police found Bryson unconscious behind the wheel of his Lexus on June 9 after he crashed into one car twice, left the scene of the accident and collided with another vehicle.

He was cited on suspicion of a felony hit-

and-run in the first crash, but so far no charges have been filed.

Police said on Thursday they were awaiting results of toxicology tests and the Commerce Department said initial tests showed he had a seizure. REUTERS

Court rules against FCC over profanity, nudity B2M PRODUCTIONS/GETTY IMAGES

Sandusky’s adopted son: I was molested PENNSYLVANIA. Jerry Sandusky's adopted son has told prosecutors he was molested by the former Penn State coach, now on trial on child sex abuse charges, the Harrisburg Patriot-News reported on Thursday.

Matt Sandusky, 33, said through his attorney Andrew Shubin that he met prosecutors this week and told them for the first time that Jerry Sandusky molested him, the newspaper said.

Matt Sandusky was adopted by Jerry and Dottie Sandusky as an adult, after going to live with the family as a foster child, it said.

WEEKEND, JUNE 22-24, 2012

The FCC can impose fines of $325,000 on each station that airs indecent material, including images and words, between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m.

The Supreme Court on Thursday ruled against a government crackdown on broadcast profanity and nudity, saying the Federal Communications Commission had not given fair notice of its policy change in three high-profile incidents.

The unanimous high court ruling, written by Justice Anthony Kennedy, declared that the FCC’s standards were vague as applied to the broadcasts at issue in the case. It did not decide the larger question of whether the indecency policy violated constitutional freespeech rights.

Under the policy which dated to 2001 and was amended in 2004, broadcasters can be fined for airing a single profanity blurted out on a live show or for brief nudity. Government lawyers said it covered the “F-word” and the “S-word”

that denote “sexual or excretory activities,” respectively.

The justices threw out a U.S. appeals court ruling that struck down the policy on speech grounds and the justices said several options are before the commission, including reviewing the current policy and modifying it.

FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski said the agency is reviewing the Supreme Court decision, which he said appeared narrowly limited to procedural issues over actions taken years ago.

Republican Commissioner Robert McDowell said the agency should quickly implement the Court's decision and move on to address a backlog of nearly 1.5 million pending indecency complaints, dating as far back as 2003 and involving some 9,700 TV broadcasts.

Cheers to paradise In honor of the “Arcadia” exhibit, the PMA and STARR Events have teamed up for a Tiki pop-up restaurant on the museum’s East Terrace this weekend.

Tables are going fast, but if you don’t nab one, you can still shake up this cocktail based on Henri Rousseau’s painting “The Dream.”

In Greek mythology, Arcadia is a pastoral utopia where humans live in perfect harmony with nature, spending their days in blissful contemplation of the unspoiled landscape. Or, as Philadelphia Art Museum curator Joseph J. Rishel puts it, “people standing around under trees without any clothes on.”

There are a wealth of such images of joyful, tree-shaded nudists in the Art Museum’s new exhibition, “Gauguin, Cezanne, Matisse: Visions of Arcadia.” That natural paradise has been a recurrent theme throughout the history of art: The show’s 60-plus works reach as far back as 1627 for Poussin’s

John JH Phillips’ interactive sound and video, “Night Ferry,” debuts June 30 at 8 p.m. at Schuylkill Banks Crescent Park.

The art of the neighborhood The Commotion Festival features works inspired by Grays Ferry, Point Breeze and South of South Street Tasked with creating a public art project in the Grays Ferry, Point Breeze and South of South Street neighborhoods, John JH Phillips soon discovered that the job was even bigger than it sounded.

“As everyone in Philadelphia knows, that community is not just three neighborhoods — it’s dozens,” says Phillips, a sound and video artist and UArts professor. “It changes almost block by block.”

The Commotion project was developed as a partnership between UArts, PECO and the Philadelphia Redevelopment Authority’s long-running Percent for Art program. As part of the utility’s project to build an electric substation in Grays Ferry, it funded the development of a public art pro-

Pieces running this week in the festival include Ed Shockley’s play “The Greatest Life That Never Was,” inspired by personal narratives from local residents; dance performances

by Subcircle and Team Sunshine at Shiloh Baptist Church; and the raising of Jebney Lewis’ 20-foot sculpture and Phillips’ own maze of interactive video screens at Crescent Park.

most iconic figure center stage.

Leopold Stokowski’s silhouette has been engraved upon the popular imagination since the release of “Fantasia” in 1940 (that tall conductor atop a podium shaking Mickey Mouse’s hand). But before he was Disney-fied, Stokowski was perhaps the world’s leading showman, innovator and promoter of classical music. And, as music director from 1912 to 1940, he cemented the Philadelphia Orchestra’s reputation as one of the world’s most revered cultural institutions. “He put the Orchestra on the map,” says Jeremy Rothman, vice president for artistic planning at the Orchestra. “His charisma and music-making built what became known as the Philadelphia Sound. His vision for recordings, television and film vastly broadened the familiarity that people had with the Orchestra.”

With help from Symphony V.0 — a company that specializes in animation, lighting and projections for live classical music — the Orchestra promises a truly Stokowski-esque spectacle. The performances will feature iconic pieces from the Orchestra’s salad days: Brahms’ Symphony No. 1, Wagner’s overture to “Tannhauser,”

WEEKEND, JUNE 22-24, 2012

Yannick on deck this weekend The Stokowski Celebration marks the official beginning of Yannick Nezet-Seguin’s tenure as music director. The Montreal native is only the eighth music director in the Philadelphia Orchestra’s history. While almost all of the lighting and animation in the Stokowski Celebration will correspond to NezetSeguin’s specific musical interpretations, the “Fantasia� segment has been designed by Disney. The orchestra will utilize Disney’s score and technology to sync the music to the film.

As far as Rothman’s concerned, Stokowski would approve of the unconventional Disney partnership. “While we may have a perception of a very static and traditional kind of experience in the concert hall, 100 years ago we may have been far more innovative.

Sometimes it’s OK to reach and try to be more visionary.�

#1 DAILY NEWSPAPER IN CENTER CITY STEPHAN VAUGHAN

Don’t expect campy humor from ‘Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’ The star of the show assures us that it’s all quite serious

P

laying a president always piques the public’s attention, and actor Benjamin Walker has not one executive role, but two under his belt.

In “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter,” the Juilliardtrained actor plays the instrumental leader himself from the age of 19 to his death at 55.

So you played Andrew Jackson in the Broadway musical “Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson” and now you’re playing Abraham Lincoln.

Yeah, I got the market cornered on weird presidents.

Which one did you enjoy portraying more?

That’s tough. As Americans we’re fascinated by our leaders, but I think Lincoln, people are more familiar with his legacy so there’s a bit more expected of you when you play Lincoln.

The Andrew Jackson that we

did was a very absurd interpretation.

Which president would you like to play next?

I think Woodrow Wilson would be fascinating.

What did you honestly think when they gave you the script to “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter”?

I wanted to know who’s directing it. That would tell me what kind of project it would be.

When they told me it was Timur [Bekmambetov], it kind of put my mind at ease.

Q&A

Able Abe What most surprised you about Lincoln?

Probably the most helpful fact

Walker’s ax to grind

How did you prepare for the role?

I read three or four books. The most helpful one was called “Lincoln’s Melancholy,” because it’s about his childhood and how he dealt with death and misery and the more gothic side of who he is. That certainly lends itself more nicely to the story we’re telling.

Benjamin Walker stars in “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter,” in theaters Friday.

We’ve been killing them for a long time.

Did you read up about vampires?

Yeah. We referenced Nosferatu, kind of the return to the truly evil vampires. You got guys like Rufus Sewell playing vampires — it’s pretty believable when they’re jumping at you with sharp teeth. There’s very little acting involved when you’re fighting for your life.

I’ve always been a fan of “Lost Boys.”

This film straddles the line between historical fiction and horror. Were you happy with the decision to make this a horror action film rather than a drama?

My biggest concern was that it was not campy, that the joke

that came to light was that he was an ordinary guy that came from very humble beginnings.

That’s what makes him extraordinary: He did extraordinary things in spite of it.

was in the title and that’s where it ends. That we’re not making fun of it, that we’re not being disrespectful to Lincoln, that we’re trying to make a period piece that had some vampires in it.

Which stunts did you do?

I did most of it, particularly the ax fighting. Timur was very hesitant to shoot it where you see my face, then you cut to the back of some stunt guy’s head.

He wanted these long shots where we see the motion and we see Lincoln. So they tried to get me to do as much as I could.

Was this the first time you picked up an ax?

No. What’s ironic is I spent the summer before that working cutting down trees. With a chainsaw mind you, but yeah, I know how to use an ax!

While beautifully animated, this Scottish tale falls short of the animation studio’s highest benchmark.

Pixar’s meek ‘Brave’ Directors: Mark Andrews, Brenda Chapman and Steve Purcell Cast: Kelly Macdonald, Billy Connolly

Rating: PG Grade: –—˜™š “Brave� may not be one of Pixar studio’s best films (such as “Wall-E� or “Up�) but it would be misconstrued to denounce it based on that discrimination anyhow.

The Scottish fable of tomboy princess Merida (voiced by Kelly

Macdonald) who refuses to resign to marriage takes a surprising tonal turn once she unwittingly has her mother placed under a witch’s curse. However trifling, stunning animation and fun characters help make up for a hollower helping from Pixar.

Everything and nothing ‘Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’ is such a bizarre mix of things, it might be amazing ... or it might be the messiest thing you’ve ever seen “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter” Director: Timur Bekmambetov Cast: Benjamin Walker, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Anthony Mackie Rating: R Grade:

“Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter” is, in essence, the smashing together of mismatched toys by an aggressive, fever-addled 8-year-old. And, if you can let go of that thorny abstract idea we call “reality,” you might just enjoy it.

Director Timur Bekmambetov is quoted as saying, “You haven’t seen this movie [before].” And he’s right: “Vampire Hunter” is one of the more bewildering spectacles available for public consumption at the moment. The frenzied humping of half-sentences culled from Wikipedia, it’s a mistake

REMARKABLE IN EVERY WAY!” Mark S. Allen, CBS/CW STATIONS

This review was written at a Dave and Buster’s. It only seemed right.

TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX CORP.

Rating: R Grade:

Movie review ‘Seeking a Friend for the End of the World’ Director: Lorene Scafaria Cast: Steve Carell, Keira Knightley

A 70-mile wide asteroid is bound for Earth, sure to annihilate all of humankind, and revelry is setting in. Meaningless sex, rampant drug use and vicious riots have swept the globe — but Steve Carell’s character, Dodge, doesn’t want any part of it. Prompted

to think of this movie as a full offering of any of its parts — in particular, the historicity of 19th century America and its rock-star president. Rather, imagine this movie as the ultimate experiment in stunt-casting, where the idea of “casting” is inverted; the actor is negligible, but his character is king.

Abe Lincoln kills vampires with the strategic faultlessness of a Lannister and the lanky dexterity of Kevin Durant. Marfan Syndrome, meet your posterboy.

Taught by a dandy steampunk vampire yoda, an orphaned Abe becomes a fourscore-and-seventh-degree black belt of axe-fu, dispatching vampires faster than you can say Dred Scott. In a flurry of midmovie plot advances, he meets Mary Todd, marries her, retires

vampire slaying, has a kid, becomes a lawyer, is elected president, Civil Wars in Gettysburg.

Then the second half begins.

It’s absurd. It honors nothing and, in retrospect, might dishonor everything with equal force. It’s hard to find a movie as daringly insipid at the risk of honoring its premise. This is a movie about Abraham Lincoln, sort of, killing vampires, sort of, which represent the slavehappy South, sort of, and his purported homosexual leanings, sort of. Over the credits, a nu metal song plays. Abraham Lincoln loved: Killing vampires, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, axes, flaming trains, guys(?) and nu metal. Stick that in your history book and smoke it.

JIM FENNER

by the asteroid news, his wife leaves him, rendering him distant from the chaos around him. A chance meeting with his bubbly neighbor, Penny (Keira Knightley), leads them to embark on an adventure to find closure amidst impending doom. You’ll believe in their stories, touched to be

privy to the bond they create near the end of days.

We’ve seen Carell as the mild-mannered man before, but he continues to shine in the role. Knightley’s effervescence makes for a lovely foil.

The movie will linger in your mind long after its final powerful scene. MEREDITH ENGEL

Boredom blamed for Depp-Paradis split TONY BARSON ARCHIVE/WIREIMAGE

Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis are staying quiet about

their separation — meaning “inside sources” and “close friends” are extra busy.

According to one source, the reason the ultrafamous, continent-hopping couple broke up after 14 years is pretty much the same reason us mortals call it quits: boredom, with a side of sparkly things in the distance.

“He was bored senseless with her; being with Vanessa was making him miserable,” a questionable friend tells RadarOnline. “The spark had gone, and there was nothing left. Johnny just wants more from life and believes Vanessa deserves to be happier, too.

He’s not embroiled in some hot and heavy new romance and he has no plans to jump straight into something straight away, but he is keen to have some fun again.”

If nothing else, the fun part seems to be true. After performing with the Black Keys at the MTV Movie Awards, Depp’s been spotted out in Hollywood with Marilyn Manson.

It’s times like this we’re glad we’re not artistic millionaires.

Can you imagine having to try new things and party with rock stars every time your life got boring? We can barely find the motivation to update the Netflix queue.

A twist on egg rolls. “In the summertime, we get spring roll skin made of coconut oil and wheat flour.

Put in some sliced-up egg omelet, bean sprouts, scallions, cilantro, tofu, then sprinkle peanuts with a bit of brown sugar, and roll it up and eat it. It’s the most refreshing thing.�

An assortment of dierent vegetables.

A tofu dish. “Chilled tofu salad is the most delicious thing,� she says. “You get silken tofu, chop it up into cubes but still keep it as one block, put it in the fridge and chill it down. Then you make a dressing of light soy, vinegar, sesame oil and sesame seeds and dress it.�

A noodle dish. “A bit of stir-fried rice noodles is not overly bad.�

Protein. Huang likes chicken stir-fried with veggies.

“I try to show people a diversity of Chinese cuisine with a fusion element to it,� says Ching-He Huang, the host of Cooking Channel’s “Easy Chinese,� which airs Saturdays at 8:30 p.m.

really healthy, light soups that you can add to,� the chef says. “For dinner, you can have a vegetable-based stock with some water, add in some grated ginger and a handful of different kinds of mushrooms because they’re full of antioxidants and really healthy. Then chuck in greens, Chinese broccoli, spinach, or whatever you fancy, and some lean fish.

Season it with a bit of light soy, sesame oil, salt, ground white pepper and a little bit of rice

wine. For me, that shows the epitome of a really good Chinese-based, easy, comforting dish that you can have at home.�

Try a salad: Though you might think of rice and noodles when you think of Chinese food, salads are “getting much more popular,� Huang says. She loves dressing hers with a grapefruit or lemon vinaigrette.

Politics is political and bias is wrong RE: “LET’S TAKE CARE OF OUR OWN FIRST, THEN HELP OTHERS”: I

would like to address two recent letters. First: John Hemphill says Obama bows to perverts; does he mean pedophile priests protected by the church? Then he says he’s not sure if Obama’s moves are political. John, you know what was political? Mitch McConnell stating that the No. 1 priority of the GOP was to make sure Obama was a oneterm president — not fix the economy, not end wars, not get bin Laden! Second: Jim Alvin says “the president” should be tried for treason.

Jim, you’re four years too late.

Taking care of our own first is discrimination. Nationalism, sexism, racism ... they are all

discrimination and have no place in our society. We are all people, human beings. Immigrants competing with Americans for jobs is a fallacy. Just ask the farmers in Georgia and Alabama who scaled back production this year because they don’t have enough employees. It is never too late to do the right thing, no matter the circumstances.

COREY SAGENICH, VIA E-MAIL

Let’s not care about anyone anymore!

RE: “PARTIES AREN’T HERE FOR SOCIETY’S BENEFIT”: To Mr.

Bryce who states that our government is not meant to help society prosper, apparently he has forgotten all about that little blurb in the preamble to the Constitution about the Government “promoting the general welfare.” Most people

on that side of the fence tend to disregard this wording completely for some reason.

It’s incredible how far conservatives will go these days to attack the policies of President Obama, who is trying to lend assistance to the middle and lower classes during a difficult economic time.

Now they’re arguing that the U.S. government shouldn’t help the citizenry of the U.S. at all?! These are the same people who would kill someone if they didn’t get their Social Security, unemployment, or disability checks on time!

Cancer June 21-July 22. You could be surprisingly lucky in your financial or material affairs. If you want to cash in, don’t postpone any financial negotiations until another time.

Leo July 23-Aug. 22. Without being self-serving, you should be able to advance your interests by focusing your efforts on endeavors of prominence. Take on something big.

Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22. Surprisingly, your intuitive perception could be one of your greatest assets. If you get any strong, persistent hunches, it behooves you to play them whenever you can.

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 23. You’ll be much happier and more comfortable around people whose likes and dislikes parallel yours. If at all possible, stay away from those who think differently from you.

Scorpio Oct. 24-Nov. 22. Don’t do anything foolish, but if you must take some kind of calculated risk in order to improve your lot in life, it behooves you to do so. Give it a try when you get positive signals.

Bush, Clinton and Obama all to blame RE: “OBAMA DID NOT INVENT OUR PROBLEMS:” The writer blames

our economy on Bush but has no blame for Obama or Clinton. Yet our most serious economic problem began when Clinton deregulated the banks by pushing to repeal the 1933 Glass-Steagall act. This caused our banking system to get in trouble and neither Clinton, Bush nor Obama know how to deal with it. Obama’s solution was to back the 849-page Dodd/Frank bill, which is a disaster. If he were a competent leader, he would not let lobbyists amend it past its original length!

I don’t know why anyone in the media gives wind to the argument that Obama should have done something sooner on immigration, or that there could be a realistic permanent solution.

you’ve been wishing would change might undergo a transformation all on its own. Fortunately, you’ll like what transpires.

Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 19. You shouldn’t have to be told that all agreements or contracts you sign must be able to stand the test of time. Make sure the terms benefit all parties involved, and you’ll come out ahead.

Pisces Feb. 20-March 20. Fortunately, it looks like success is indicated in most of your endeavors or involvements right now. Happily, the wins that could be the most productive pertain to your security and earnings.

Aries March 21-April 19. Pattern an endeavor in which you’re presently involved on something you did in the past that proved to be successful. If it worked well once before, it’s likely to do so again.

Taurus April 20-May 20. This could be a good day to tackle several projects that you’re trying to complete. The reason: You’ll find a way to tackle them all at the same time.

Gemini May 21-June 20. If you’ve been considering getting involved in a new enterprise or project, it might be now or never. Postponing it any further is likely to cause you to completely discard the idea.

Philly heats up ‘Hell’s Kitchen’ FOX

Quoted

Christina Wilson is competing on the reality show for a permanent gig with Gordon Ramsay in Vegas Her advice for young chefs Former Mercato chef Christina Wilson joins a long line of Philly chefs who make the cut on reality cooking shows. We caught up with her to talk “Hell’s Kitchen.”

What’s been the biggest challenge?

Just trying to stay focused. The Red team is getting a little cranky, trying to meet the standards while dealing with office turmoil. It’s been tough. The biggest thing is ignoring the noise and staying focused on why I’m here.

Are you a celebrity now?

Do you get recognized on the street?

A little bit in Philly, but not really. I’m not out and about, but

“Philly has done a good job of getting themselves on the map for a number of years.” WILSON

it did happen twice at a bar. I was with Justin [Antiorio] and Dana [Cohen]. We got recognized, it was weird. It’s the only job interview in the world, outside of politics, that you will get recognized. Everyone is watching you on this job interview.

What does this mean or do for the Philly restaurant scene?

Philly has done a good job of getting themselves on the map for a number of years. People like Jen Carroll and Jose Garces — Philly is getting a little more respect, doing well in these cooking shows.

What would it mean to win the whole thing?

Wow, to get my dream job in Vegas, working for the most well-respected chefs in the world, amazing. The little bit I’ve learned already is unreal.

To possibly win, to be out there [in Vegas], with that starting salary, and your career is only going to go up from there. It would be a great platform to jump into a new chapter of my career.

Any advice for young chefs?

Philly’s own Christina Wilson is competing on “Hell’s Kitchen.”

Catch the next episode Monday at 8 p.m. on FOX.

Keep your head down, mouth shut, eyes open and keep pushing. I didn’t go to culinary school, I learned everything on my own. And don’t bring your ego into the kitchen. Once those doors open, anything goes.

Fans love Chooch, and he loves fans Carlos Ruiz is not only the club’s best player right now, but their most popular one.

Every time the Phil Collins song “In the Air Tonight” blasts from the loud speakers at Citizens Bank Park for Ruiz’s atbat, the buzz can be felt throughout the stands.

Phillies call Ruiz ‘glue to whole club’ Catcher making strong case for first All-Star berth Ranks fourth in NL in hitting, on-base percentage Team hyping ‘Vote Chooch’ campaign GETTY IMAGES

Carlos Ruiz trotted out of the Phillies’ dugout and made his way to right field where his teammates were going through their daily stretching routine before batting practice.

“MVP!” they chanted in unison.

Definitely an All-Star. Entering last night’s game against the Rockies, Ruiz — affectionately known as “Chooch” — was hitting .354 with nine home runs and 38 RBIs. That was good enough to rank fourth in the National League in hitting, as well as OBP (.422) and fifth in slugging percentage (.579).

Ruiz has already tied his career high with nine homers, and he had seven RBIs in one memorable game May 2 at Atlanta. The numbers are impressive, but they don’t tell the whole story.

“Carlos is the glue to our whole club,” said Jim Thome.

“The pitchers respect him, our whole club respects him, and we believe he’s worthy of an All-Star berth. He’s been just amazing all season.”

Still, Ruiz was in third place in the latest votes tabulated to

us going. If the All-Star voting works out, I’ll be very happy.

Jimmy Rollins was at the White House on Thursday with Vice President Joe Biden to unveil a new public service announcement for the “1 is 2 Many” initiative aimed at curbing date violence. The PSA also features President Barack Obama,Eli Manning, David Beckham, Joe Torre and Jeremy Lin. The goal is to change attitudes and to educate the public on the realities of abuse.

OUR MOCK DRAFT MOCKERY

GETTY IMAGES

Sleepers? Nope

The values of certain players are going to fluctuate wildly over the next two months.

Draft strategy will not.

After participating in a 12-team expert mock last week, I was able to see some trends that will stick in August as well:

You may think you’re in good shape because Ryan Mathews and Julio Jones are on your radar. Think again. Mathews went fifth overall and Jones was an early third-rounder. DeMarco Murray (second round) and Demaryius Thomas (fourth round) aren’t going to slip either.

Quarterback frenzy

Loose at tight end

The smart play used to be waiting until the middle rounds to draft a quarterback.

That’s not going to fly anymore as six will come off the board before the second round is over. I chose to hold off until the eighth round for my signalcaller, ending up with Matt Ryan. I also could have taken Robert Griffin III or Jay Cutler. Not too shabby.

The Patriots’ tight end usage is sparking a trend. More and more teams are seeking out wildly athletic pass-catchers at the position, creating impressive depth for owners. Passing on Rob Gronkowski in the first round or Jimmy Graham in the second is a good idea when you can get Aaron Hernandez in the fourth or Brent Celek in the 11th.

Rajai Davis, OF, TOR — Now that he’s getting regular starts in left field, Davis is going to win the steals category for owners weekly. He has eight swipes in June.

Justin Maxwell, OF, HOU — We’ve known that Maxwell has had some serious pop ever since his days as a Nationals prospect. Now the Astros are giving him a chance.

Carlos Marmol, RP, CHC — Marmol is still wild, but he’s back in the closer’s chair for now.

Remember that he’s only one year removed from a 34-save season.

FINANCING DONE RIGHT

What’s in a name? Everything.

Oshiomogho Atogwe was formally introduced to the masses Thursday. One of the first questions fired at him involved his unique first name.

While he goes by O.J., the veteran safety took time to explain what his name means when translated. “God owns the day and only God knows my tomorrow,�

Atogwe said. “I got the nickname O.J. back when I was 7 or 8 years old when I started playing football. They couldn’t pronounce my name.�

Atogwe was born in Windsor, Ontario, Canada, but he is of Nigerian decent, something the newest Eagle shares with fellow defensive back Nnamdi Asomugha. Atogwe said he’s met Asomugha, but the two haven’t spent a lot of time to-

Atogwe

gether. He did play with Asomugha’s older brother, Chijioke, at Stanford. “We haven’t had an extremely close relationship because we haven’t spent a lot of

time together,� Atogwe said, “but we have been acquaintances for a long time now.�

Atogwe played in 13 games (started eight) for the Washington Redskins last season.

The team cut ties with him to save some salary cap space.

He’s already been told that he’ll start training camp as a backup to Nate Allen. Still, turn enough heads and you never know. “It’s definitely a situation that I’m excited about because I haven’t been in this position since the second year of my career,� Atogwe said. “It’s definitely one I look forward to because it’s challenging and it will bring the best out of me.�

Flyers announce 2012-13 schedule Claude Giroux is on the cover of the newest EA Sports hockey video game. Along with that comes great responsibility, like a full NHL schedule.

The Flyers revealed their 2012-13 slate Thursday, which opens Oct. 11 against the Boston Bruins at the Wells Fargo Center. The 82-game season ends April 13 at home against the New York Rangers. “We’re anxious to get back on the ice and begin preparing for the start of the 2012-13 season,� said Comcast-Spectacor president Peter Luukko.

"We know our fans are just as excited."

The Flyers battle each of their Atlantic Division rivals six times, while also facing off against the Northeast Division and Southeast Division.

They get 18 contests versus the Western Conference, including one at the Stanley Cup champion L.A. Kings on Jan. 3.

Oh ‌ what about Pittsburgh? The Flyers get them at home Oct. 18, March 26, April 9 — and Feb. 12 and 20, and March 24 in Pittsburgh.
