This memorial for fallen firefighters Dan Sweeney and Bob Neary was set up the day after their deaths. / FILE PHOTO

Remember Dan What’s in a name?

Dan Sweeney made the ultimate sacrifice. And it shouldn’t be forgotten, many are saying.

Fox Chase may find space on the neighborhood playground for both of its departed sons’ names.

One of the five diamonds at the lower fields of Fox Chase Playground in the Northeast Philly neighborhood will be dedicated to Dan Sweeney on June 23.

April 9 will be one year since Sweeney’s death. He and Lt. Robert Neary, both part of Ladder 10, were killed after a wall collapsed at a Kensington fire last year.

Fox Chase residents knew there was a precedent of naming city recreation centers after officers and firefighters killed in the line of duty.

“And we just thought it would be a way to honor our neighborhood hero,” said Bob McHugh, who

lobbied for the renaming.

“That was our goal: to keep his name alive in the neighborhood. And honor him for his sacrifice.”

Unfortunately, not everyone was on board.

The original plan was to rename the entire lower-field complex – five fields – in Danny’s name.

Opposition grew.

Some claimed the memorial would dilute the Eddie Polec memorial.

Polec was murdered on the steps of St. Cecilia’s Church in 1993. The bruise-colored rec center was named in his honor in 1995.

Some residents cried, “What next?”

Change the name of the library? The school?

The neighborhood?

People tore Sweeney Field fliers. They stole signed petitions.

“They used Eddie Polec as an excuse,” McHugh said. “And used other people that have died as an excuse. ... They didn’t necessarily want it named for anybody else, but they didn’t want it changed.”

McHugh said a longtime rec employee was asked to help. McHugh was told, “Hey, if you’re getting fields named, how about getting Field 1 named for me. I raked and worked on that field for years and if it should

Quoted

Fire Commissioner Lloyd Ayers: Let community decide “We have a lot of people in the community that was for renaming the field. And as I understand it, I heard

there was some folks that really didn’t want to rename it. It’s really got to be up to the community. I believe that the community has the right to make the decisions and if we stop and look at the community, and look at the involvement, I think then the democratic process has to prevail.”

be named for anybody, it should be named for me.”

Another person said: “Do you know how many years I sold hot dogs in the snack stand? Why don’t they name a field for me?”

Mrs. Sweeney sold hot dogs. Mr. Sweeney coached. Danny played.

“This is a slap in the face,” McHugh said.

An online petition at Change.org against Sweeney Field has about 150 signatures.

A petition in favor of the honor garnered the maximum of 2,500.

Bill Gault, president of Fire Fighters Local 22, said any honor to Sweeney has the union’s full support.

“We do not wish to engage in any neighborhood debates about the best location for a memorial,” he said in an email.

“We wish only to see that it happens so that Daniel and his family are appropriately honored.”

It’s simple: a scoreboard or a plaque featuring Danny’s name.

“How tough would that be?” McHugh said.

Man arrested for alleged mailbox rampage night

Joyride. Police said a Delaware man rammed 15 mailboxes, then posted about his alleged caper on Facebook.

A Townsend, Del., man was arrested Monday for allegedly ramming 15 mailboxes with his pickup truck in the early morning of March 24, according to state police.

State troopers identified the vehicle used as a Ford pickup and located a truck fitting its description owned by Billy Moffett.

chief and was released on $1,500 bail.

According to Moffett’s Facebook page, he works

in maintenance at a Camden, Del., Wal-Mart. His interests include Remington shotguns, “hot boating chicks” and mud bogging.

Moffett mentions his love for “running his truck” and riding dirt bikes several times.

Moffett wrote five days after the alleged crime that he needed to sell his Ford, saying, “Gotta get rid of it ASAP” and “I got in trouble with it. And I’m tryna put a down payment on a street bike.” In a post Monday, the same day Moffett was arrested, he wrote that he had bought another truck — what he called a “heavy Chevy.”

Shakeup. City chooses first collections chief

Mayor Michael Nutter yesterday appointed the city’s first chief revenue collections officer.

Thomas Knudsen is charged with improving revenue collection rates — part of an ongoing push by the administration to ferret out stashes of unclaimed cash in the face of budgetary challenges.

Knudsen oversaw a turnaround of the once troubled Philadelphia Gas Works while serving for 11 years as its CEO. He most recently worked a six-month stint as chief financial recovery officer for the School District of Philadelphia, where he helped introduce an austere cost-cutting plan that stirred controversy.

That budget struggle is still being debated by the City Council, where Councilman Mark Squilla yesterday called the collections effort “lip service” because the five-year plan doesn’t an-

Carl June was chosen as the recipient of the Philadelphia Award, given to a model for the local region and beyond. June, a University of Pennsylvania researcher, has performed groundbreaking research in immunotherapy.

“It is a wonderful honor for me and the team of scientists and physicians who work with me to make better therapies for cancer and HIV. Our goal is to engineer the immune system as a cure for these diseases,” he said.

June’s treatment uses forms of the AIDS virus to kill cancer cells. One child is in complete remission after the treatment, reports say.

Rutgers hoops coach fired after abuse video Basketball. N.J. Gov. Christie also chimed in, calling the move “the right and necessary action to take in light of the conduct displayed.”

Rutgers University men’s basketball coach Mike Rice was fired yesterday after coming under scrutiny for a video that went viral a day earlier in which he was seen abusing his players.

The ESPN sports network released a video Tuesday showing Rice — who was briefly suspended for his behavior last year — shoving players, hurling balls at their heads, and berating them with homophobic slurs and profan-

ity during practices.

Rutgers University President Robert Barchi said the video showed “a chronic and pervasive pattern of disturbing behavior.”

“Coach Rice cannot continue to serve effectively in a position that demands the highest levels of leadership, responsibility and public accountability,” Barchi said.

The New Brunswick, N.J.,-based public university is home to about 58,000 students.

Back in December, Rutgers Athletic Director Tim Pernetti had suspended Rice and slapped him with $75,000 in fines and lost salary after seeing the video.

In a statement yesterday, he acknowledged that he should have gone further.

My big head

So, everyone hates my giant head and new photo (in my defense, I have a 10-month-old, which doesn’t leave much time to get a Glamour Shot or wear contacts). Some of my favorite notes: “Poor you.” “Why in the world would you put her head so big?”

“That’s the worst photo of you I’ve ever seen,” and “You look terrible and old” (the last two were from my 77-yearold father and nanny, respectively.) All good points! I promise it’s being resolved. In the meantime, Joseph Sanchez (@JJS_III), a reader in Beverly, Mass., gave me a terrific idea via this doodle and tweet: “This is a picture of you with minimalist, oneeyed Ninja Turtles for

A dance to remember Arts. River North is premiering â&#x20AC;&#x153;Evaâ&#x20AC;? tonight at the Annenberg Center.

Like many listeners, Frank Chaves didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t discover the music of Eva Cassidy until after her death in 1996. The singer, whose repertoire ranged from jazz standards to blues, pop, folk and country tunes, passed away at the age of 33 from melanoma. Since her untimely death, her stunning voice and tragic story have led to much wider recognition.

Tonight at the Annenberg Center, River North Dance Chicago will premiere Chavesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; new piece, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Eva,â&#x20AC;? which was commissioned by Dance Celebration for its 30th anniversary season.

Chaves says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She has the voice of an angel and a gift for making you really hear and understand lyrics in a new way, a very clear and intense way.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Evaâ&#x20AC;? features four of Cassidyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s covers: Stingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fields of Gold,â&#x20AC;? the blues classic â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stormy Monday,â&#x20AC;?

the jazz standard â&#x20AC;&#x153;Autumn Leavesâ&#x20AC;? and the gospel favorite â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wade in the Water,â&#x20AC;? with snippets of Cassidy speaking between the songs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was challenging because Eva wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t known for talking,â&#x20AC;? Chaves says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but I wanted to create the sense that you were attending a live concert.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a little haunting, but I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also tender and warming to the soul to hear her voice as if she were there.â&#x20AC;?

The remainder of the program comprises three Philadelphia premieres and a pair of return performances. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Good Goodbyes,â&#x20AC;? set to an original solo piano suite by Chicago Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Choir director Josephine Lee, is about relationships within the dance community, while â&#x20AC;&#x153;Renatusâ&#x20AC;? is a striking solo for a female dancer wearing a scarlet evening gown with a 30-foot train. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Threeâ&#x20AC;? is a male trio dance with

Diversity and weird Video. Local film blog Cinedelphia launches a monthlong festival devoted to the city.

MONDAY, APRIL 8 AT 7:30PM, RITZ 5

ENTERTAINMENT

Typically, when a film festival includes a city in its name, it simply denotes the location. For the Cinedelphia Film Festival, however, the “delphia” half is as important to its mission as the “cine.” The festival — the brainchild of local film advocate Eric Bresler, founder of Cinedelphia.com — will feature 40 programs and nearly 100 screenings throughout April, all shining a light on the city’s multifaceted film community.

“I’ve been involved in the Philly film community for 15 years now,” says Bresler, who is also director of programming at PhilaMOCA.

“It’s a small community, kind of like Philly is a small city, so I wanted to bring together all of Philly’s film-related organizations and showcase them under one banner.”

It all kicks off tonight with a look back at the history of film programming at International House, featuring a selection of short films originally screened there in 1979. A later program includes a retrospective of the Philadelphia Film Festival’s Danger After Dark series.

The line-up throughout the month is “as diverse as can be, like the community itself,” Bresler says, thought he does admit to “a concentration on the weird.” That includes his own offbeat VHS collage project Video Pirates; an evening of Wes Anderson-themed burlesque; and a double feature of locally shot 1980s horror movies.

If you go

Cinedelphia Film Festival Through Apr. 27 800-838-3006 www.cinedelphia.com/ cinedelphiafilmfestival

But the festivals also celebrates the rich history of local film, with a birthday celebration for silent film pioneer Sigmund Lubin and a talk

by TLA Entertainment founder Ray Murray about the company’s history.

“I think there’s a good overview of Philly film over the past hundred years,” Bresler says, “with a big concentration on celebrating the now.”

17 Letters

Horoscope

Aries | March 21 - April 20. Offering unsolicited advice is risky at best, so if you do so anyway, make sure the recipient knows that it’s just a suggestion.

Taurus | April 21 - May 21.

You’re likely to have rigid ideas about how things should be done, so any input from a friend could be disruptive.

Gemini | May 22 - June 20. It isn’t always smart to try to do something the way another does, even if that person’s work is excellent.

Cancer | June 21 - July 22.

Try to avoid a risky financial arrangement that you know little about and have little control over.

Leo | July 23 - Aug. 22.

An old, unresolved disagreement between you and your special someone could rear its ugly head if you allow it.

Libra | Sept. 23 - Oct. 22.

Even though your earning potential is excellent, the way you manage your affairs may not be up to snuff.

Capricorn | Dec. 22 - Jan 20. Be on guard, because there is reason to believe that you could be the target of an expert manipulator.

Speak up.

Scorpio | Oct. 23 - Nov. 21. In order to complete what you start, you need to put limitations on how much you attempt to do.

Aquarius | Jan. 21 - Feb 18. Be careful not to do anything that could offend someone important to you.

Virgo | Aug. 23 - Sept. 22.

Labors of love are likely to be handled with remarkable skill, but, by the same token, you might not want to be identified with something you dislike.

Sagittarius | Nov. 22 - Dec. 21. Instead of trying to rectify another’s erroneous perception of you, you’re likely to let it go unchallenged and brood about the injustice.

Pisces | Feb. 19 - March 20. As always, you will have a choice of how you view developments: positively or negatively. Don’t envision failure when it’s just as easy to see success.

The cold Insurance facts on an fine a burden urban menace Re: “Take care of yourI am suffering from constant noise from rogue ice cream trucks that don’t heed the law and think they can blast their jingle tunes while parked and during all hours of the day and night. They’ve started already before the first day of spring and it is a perpetual annoyance! Police will not come. I’ve taken photos of the trucks, their license plates and, when posted, their mobile vendor license, but the city still does nothing.

I can’t open my apartment windows and enjoy the weather without their noise intrusion. We don’t need the ceaseless noise, we don’t need the calories, we don’t need the negative quality of life, but the city could use the fines that should be imposed on these outlaws.

self or the feds will do it for you” (Metro, April 3) The fact that someone does not have health insurance does not automatically mean they are irresponsible and want to shift the cost onto their fellow citizens. Many people simply cannot afford it.

I know from personal experience when, after having knee replacement surgery, my insurance jumped from $100 per month to $700 per month, which I could not afford and had to give up my self-employment status and get a job which provided benefits.

The rationale to punish someone by a fine for not having insurance is the wrong approach.

NEEDS NOT BEING MET? STOP HAVING â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;RELATIONSHIP SEXâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; AND GET REAL Dating. Revealing what you want in bed will make your relationship stronger, even if it can be diďŹ&#x192;cult to talk about.

Someone said to me recently that from a physical standpoint, she enjoys casual sex more than sex in a relationship, because with a casual partner she feels more comfortable talking about her fantasies and focusing on her sexual pleasure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In a relationship,â&#x20AC;? she said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re invested in making the other person

GETTY IMAGES, DESIGN PICS RF

feel good â&#x20AC;&#x201D; both physically and emotionally.

Revealing what you want puts much more on the line.â&#x20AC;?

She brings up a good point: When weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in rela-

tionships, is too much of our sex life focused on the other person? Are we so concerned with stroking our partnersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; egos that we care more about looking like weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re enjoying sex

rather than actually enjoying it? Maybe we fear that telling our partner what to do better might make them feel inadequate, or like weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never truly enjoyed the past sex weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had with them. So, in our minds, we sacrifice our fulfillment so that our loved one can feel like a sexual rock star.

The problem is, this type of â&#x20AC;&#x153;relationship sexâ&#x20AC;? isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t actually good for a relationship. Yes, you should care about pleasing the other person physically and making sure theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re comfortable â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but that needs to be balanced with what you want, too. This means you have to bite the bullet, give your partner some

direction, and tell them your fantasies â&#x20AC;&#x201D;theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re nothing to be ashamed of. Having exciting sex doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to (and shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t) be something thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s relegated to partners we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care about.

We should be having our best sex within relationships because our partners know us. We shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be shielding them from what we like because weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re embarrassed, or worse, because we want to stroke their egos. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not helping your relationship by doing this. The only way to have a good relationship is to stand up for the things you need. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just as true in the bedroom as it is everywhere else.

Wonder Dog still in love with Philly It’s a sort of homecoming for one member of the Royals’ organization.

TV analyst Rex Hudler is stoked about returning to town this weekend when the Phils face the Royals.

“I’m all about the Fightin’ Phils and my experience with them,” Hudler told Metro. “I love the organization and the city.”

After having the finest year of his 13-year MLB career in 1996, Hudler signed with the Phillies.

“The Phillies bought high,” Hudler said. “I had a nice offer from the Dodgers and I didn’t want to finish my career with a losing team, but the Phillies made me an offer I couldn’t refuse [by doubling the Dodgers’ $800,000].”

Unlike a number of players, Hudler calls his two years in Philadelphia the highlight of his career.

“While I was with the Phillies, I was asked to go on ‘Good Morning America’ and they asked what motivated a player when

his team is 35 games out of first place,” Hudler said.

“One thing led to another, and that led to broadcasting as a career.”

Hudler, who is known for uttering such quirky lines as “pilot to bombardier” and “get yourself a piece of cheese,” is one of the most colorful broadcasters in the game.

“I didn’t want my career to end that way, but that’s the way it went,” Hudler said.

“We were a really bad team, but we had some talent — Curt Schilling, Mike Lieberthal, Scott Rolen, Ricky Bottalico and some guy named Ruben Amaro Jr.”

“That’s what it’s about,” Hudler said. “But this year, we have a lot of good young talent. It’s going to be a good year for Kansas City.”

Hudler has high hopes for the Phillies, too.

“When you have Ryan Howard, Chase Utley, Cole Hamels, Jimmy Rollins, Cliff Lee and Roy Halladay, you’re going to be tough to beat. I can see the Phillies going to the playoffs, but they’re going to have to beat ‘Big Game’ James Shields when we come in.”
