Now to the left of The Bell Curve

o, let’s say that you’re a conservative political movement — after years of record-breaking deficit spending under a conservative president and Congress — formed shortly after the inauguration of the country’s first black president to, um, fight deficit spending, and things have been real tough lately. Somehow, everyone’s been getting the idea that you’re racist. Preposterous, right? Well, sure, there are all those racist-ish signs that keep popping up at your rallies. And yeah, there was that time some of your members reportedly yelled the N-word at a black congressman during the health care fracas. And the response of one More on: of your highest-profile leaders, Mark Williams, to the NAACP’s request that you weed out racist elements — writing a “satirical” letter to Abraham Lincoln that reads, “We Coloreds have taken a vote and decided that we don’t cotton to that whole emancipation thing. Freedom means having to work for real, think for ourselves, and take consequences along with the rewards. That is just far too much to ask of us Colored People and we demand that it stop!” — probably didn’t help, either. This racism charge has become fairly pernicious, and you need to counter it before it gets out of control. There’s only one thing to do: Pack the shiniest “I’m with Arizona” buttons you have (for sale, of course) and bring them to last Saturday’s “Uni-Tea”(get it?) rally in Independence

citypaper.net

Park, where — and this is very important — your organizers have rounded up every single non-white right-winger they could find and put them on stage, in front of God and everyone, to prove, once and for all, that the Tea Party and racism are not synonymous. After all, some of your best friends are black. Of the 13 speakers at Uni-Tea, co-hosted by the local Independence Hall Tea Party Association and explicitly designed to highlight the Tea Party’s diversity, eight were black and one was Hispanic. Everyone talked about how the only colors that matter are red, white and blue, and how liberals who peddle socialwelfare and affirmative-action policies are the true bigots, and they should really give us our country back. Uni-Tea was about more than just speakers, though: You may not know this, but Tea Partiers (note: This is the GET YOUR FIX OF preferred term, as “tea baggers” has an NEWS, SPORTS unwelcomed sexual connotation, as in, the A N D C O M M E N TA R Y AT T H E C L O G , C I T YPA P E R . N E T / C L O G .

dipping of a man’s testicles into his

partner’s mouth) love hip-hop. Indeed, if you haven’t seen a group of slightly older, overweight Tea Partiers rise out of their folding chairs with their hands up as conservative white-boy rap duo Hi-Caliber busts such rhymes as “no taxation without representation” or “U.S.A., everybody get ready, T-E-A is sweeping the nation,”well, you haven’t really lived, have you? In attendance were roughly 500 real Americans — organizers predicted at least three times that number — many carrying Gadsden flags or brandishing such delightful cardboard phrases as “Socialism Kills” and “Talk Radio is TRUTH.” Of these, about 25 were non-Caucasian. But really, who’s counting? Color is an anachronism here. They say so themselves.

(Of course, they did invite Andrew Breitbart — the race-baiting blogger who took

after black Department of Agriculture employee Shirley Sherrod on manufactured reversae-racism charges a few weeks ago — to be a keynote speaker.) Also: Did you know that Tea Partiers are so friggin’ colorblind that not only do they not see black and brown, but purple and pink, too? That’s right: They love the gays — so long, that is, as the gays pass on equal rights. For instance, locals Brendan Kissam and Matt Hissey got lots of attention carrying “Proud Gay Conservative” signs. They feel not antagonized at all by the Tea Party’s conservative leanings. And why would they? They both oppose gay marriage; they don’t feel they need it. “I don’t know what rights I don’t have now as a gay citizen,” Kissam tells us. Not to pick nits or anything, but what about the 1,138 benefits, rights and privileges granted to straight couples that, because of the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act, gays and lesbians can’t claim? Things like Social Security and Medicare benefits? Or, you know, tax-free inheritance? Just saying. >>> continued on adjacent page

✚ A Million Stories

As if the widespread mouth-breathing, creaky carnival-ride noises, out-of-nowhere stops and occasional blackouts weren’t enough to work your cortisol levels into a frenzy every time you so much as tweet about a SEPTA train, here’s another reason to pop a Valium before taking the El: Alstom Signaling Inc., the company that made the faulty track circuit blamed for a collision last year on Washington, D.C.’s Metro line, which killed nine people and injured dozens more, also sells track circuits to SEPTA. Comforting, huh? Last week, the National Transportation Safety Board recommended that all of the transit systems using Alstom’s equipment — Metro, SEPTA, Chicago Transit Authority and many more — work with the company “to establish periodic inspection and maintenance procedures to examine all GRS audio frequency track circuit modules to identify and remove from service” any that exhibited the same problems as D.C.’s. “We’ve always done that,” responds Richard Maloney, SEPTA’s director of public affairs. Maloney also says that Washington, D.C.’s track circuits were 30 years old, and ours are, um, only 10 years old. The defect that led to the Metro accident — a track-circuit signal jumped from a transmitter to a receiver, causing one train to not detect the stopped train it crashed into — is unique to the 30-year-old model, he adds:“That problem is not possible in our model.” But didn’t Metro probably think the same thing before last year’s crash? “We’ve done tests … and ours just can’t do that.” Doesn’t that make you feel as secure as a millionaire’s newborn?

CP’s Quality-o-Life-o-Meter

If you’re like us — and we wouldn’t wish that upon our worst the months-late, $80,000, city-commissioned Boston College study on the city’s Deferred Retirement Option Plan (DROP), which City Paper contributor Ralph Cipriano eviscerated in his recent investigation [Cover Story, “The Billion Dollar Boondoggle,” April 22]. Well, holy fucking shit: It’s here! And what’s more, now that an official document has stated the obvious — that DROP is an epic money-suck, costing us at least $258 million over the last decade; that’s considerably less than the $1 billion-plus impact actuary Joe Boyle calculated the program had on Philly taxpayers for our investigation, but hey, it’s something — Mayor Michael Nutter has channeled his inner populist and demanded that City Council eliminate the program once and for all. Hot damn. But before we take a victory lap — and really, without Cipriano’s dogged pursuit of this story, would DROP be on anybody’s radar? Unlikely — let’s pause to remember that six City Council members, including Council President Anna Verna, are enrolled in the program, and set to cash in six-figure DROP bonuses in 2011 or 2012. And even though any legislation that makes it through Council won’t affect them, we somehow doubt Verna and Co. will effectively pronounce themselves the world’s biggest hypocrites by denying the same right to thousands of other city workers. In other words, this thing isn’t done yet. As always, we’ll keep you posted. ✚This week’s report by Jeffrey C. Billman, Victor Gamez and Holly Otterbein.

“No one is being placed in jeopardy,” says Mayor Nutter about shutting down city fire companies on a rotating basis to save money. “If anything, this is more like Wheel of Fortune or Press Your Luck.”

soapboxer Jeffrey C. Billman tells you what to think

WAKE UP ³ SOMETIMES, THE TRICK is asking the right question. Credit

where credit is due to Jay Bookman of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, who on July 27 wrote this on the paper’s blog: “Let me see if I’ve got this straight: Here we are in the smoldering ruins of an economy recently wrecked by Wall Street greed, in a country where for 30 years almost all income growth has been concentrated among the richest 1 percent of Americans. … Meanwhile, the Republican Party defends massive tax breaks for the wealthy while blocking aid to the unemployed, fights bitterly against regulations designed to prevent a repeat of the Wall Street meltdown, blocks legislation that would at least require corporate and special interests to identify themselves when they invest in elections and does all that while proclaiming itself to be the party of the little people. Do I have that right?” Unfortunately, yes. And if the polls bear out, the Party of Hell No You Can’t stands to be rewarded for its intransigence and corporate servitude with big electoral gains in November, as its politicians rail against the deficits they created and the high unemployment numbers their obstinacy prevents Democrats from counteracting. All the while, they deny the quantitatively obvious: The stimulus and other efforts to avert economic collapse last year worked. Last week, for instance, The New York Times reported on a paper by a Princeton professor and the chief economist at Moody’s Analytics

that adds to a mounting volume of evidence that the Keynesians were right: Without government intervention, the analysts asserted, the nation’s GDP would be about 6.5 percent lower than it is. That would have meant the loss of an additional 8.5 million jobs, on top of the 8 million already lost to the Great Recession. “[T]here is little doubt that in total, the policy response was highly effective,” the authors wrote. Though politically unpopular, the policies of the Democratic Congress and Bush and Obama administrations in late 2008 and early 2009 prevented catastrophe. That the economy is still struggling doesn’t prove otherwise; instead, it highlights that, if anything, we should have gone bigger. But the point remains: It worked. If the neoreactionary Republicans had had their way, we’d be stuck in 1932. (And yet, the Republicans and their Tea Party acolytes think they deserve another shot at power. Pardon me while I roll my eyes.) This isn’t to say that Barack Obama and his Democratic allies are flawless. They’ve disappointed on a great many issues: Wall Street reform and the health care bill were watered down; climate-change legislation never got off the ground; progress has been infuriatingly incremental on gay rights; Afghanistan is still a mess; Guantanamo Bay is still open; and so on. On the toughest fights, there’s a good case to be made that the president hasn’t shown enough backbone. (On the other hand, much of the mediocrity can be laid at the feet of an insane Senate system that enables obstinacy by requiring 60 votes to do anything.) But the Democrats’ case this fall needn’t be merely pointing out the GOP’s increasingly tenuous relationship with sanity, or the fact that the party of Lincoln has devolved into a Reagan-worshipping self-parody. The fact is, the White House and the 111th Congress

Pardon me while I roll my eyes.

[ the naked city ]

can also boast as impressive a resume as anything this side of the Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society, imperfect though it may be: The stimulus, health care reform, Wall Street regulations, tougher environmental protections and the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act are all landmark achievements. The agenda was ambitious, even if the execution wasn’t always so. Still, elections tend to be decided on the state of the economy, which, needless to say, isn’t good. This simple rule helped Barack Obama in 2008; it will hurt him in 2010. To make matters worse, the progressive base is demoralized, too often caterwauling about what should’ve/would’ve/ could’ve been to recognize the actual and considerable progress this country has made over the last 18 months. Wake the fuck up, people. This is real life, and midterms are base elections. Sure, you didn’t get everything you wanted, but living in a fantasyland of ideological purity will get you Speaker John Boehner. At the end of the day, the reality is simple: The verdict is in, and we were right. Own that, and go spread the word. (jeffrey.billman@citypaper.net)

manoverboard! By Isaiah Thompson

BAD COPS! ³ TUT, TUT, TUT. Tsk, tsk. Bad cops, bad cops!

Anyone else want in? Because it’s a rare occurrence — an opportunity not to be squandered — when the chief of police, the mayor, the District Attorney and even — can it be? — the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) president give us all the go-ahead to let it rip on any members of Philadelphia’s police force. Indeed, the opportunity has presented itself, after a Philly cop was charged last week with robbing the safe of Pat’s Cafe, a bar in the Northeast — just a few weeks, of course, after three other Philadelphia police officers were charged with stealing and dealing heroin. “I’m personally pissed off,” Mayor Michael Nutter boldly told reporters and TV cameras after that heroin-dealing snafu. And after Officer Kenneth Crockett was charged in the Pat’s robbery, an “angry” Police Chief Charles Ramsey promised to root out corruption in his force. Even FOP President John McNesby chimed in: “You can’t be a policeman and … a burglar… [or] a drug dealer,” he pronounced. The anger has been officially sanctioned: So go ahead and say it. Ready now? Bad cops! Bad, bad, bad. Officials, after all, prefer these kinds of cases: They’re easy, clear-cut and they let them channel the public’s wrath on a few bad apples, then go quietly back to the business of quietly backing the cops in the cases that aren’t so tidy — especially when it comes to use of deadly force. Like in April, when police sprayed a playground with bullets — killing fugitive Vincent Parsons, oh yes, but also terrifying the dozenplus children present, according to witnesses, who also told reporters that Parsons was killed trying to surrender. Or, for example, the disturbing number of cases in which police have killed homeless and mentally ill individuals. That describes at least three of the eight fatal police shootings in 2009. In April of that year, 27-year-old Anthony Temple — whose family says he was schizophrenic — was shot and killed by police when he allegedly tried to take a veteran officer’s gun. That July, police shot and killed an unknown homeless man who had been pressing the emergency call button in a downtown SEPTA concourse, after he brandished a box cutter at the officers. Two weeks later, 22-year-old Baron Adams — also homeless — was killed on the front steps of his parents’ house after allegedly taking an officer’s weapon. A few months later, police fired at, but did not kill, a “cinder block-wielding” man who was subsequently committed to a mental health facility. None of these instances, unlike the current scandals, indicate malicious intent on the part of the officers — but they deeply trouble advocates for the mentally ill. And they troubled Ramsey enough to vow to provide better training to the Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) police officers tasked with dealing with the mentally ill — as well as 1,000 new Tasers, preferable to guns in such cases. Things seemed to cool down — until last Friday, that is, when police were dispatched to a run-down block in North Philly where 53-year-old Harry Bennett was behaving erratically and wielding a knife. As is supposed to happen, CIT was called out. As isn’t, Bennett was Tasered — then shot. An investigation — as always — is under way. But you won’t get the results in a press conference.

feedback From our readers

L&I’S SHORTCOMINGS I empathize with the residents of the 700 block of Earp Street [A Million Stories, July 22]. When I reported a housing code violation, the 311 operator questioned the validity of my complaint about the use of a single-family house as a rooming house. After I cited the precise code section violated by the owner of an adjacent house, the operator accepted the complaint. An investigator did not contact me until five months had elapsed since my call. I had to persuade an investigator to accept a document from the real estate manager clearly identifying six unrelated people living in the single-family house. At first the investigator told me that he could not accept a letter unless it was addressed to him! Finally, he relented. In January, the city filed a code violation complaint against the absentee landlord. In the meantime, the neighbors suffered through another year of noise and trash at the unlicensed rooming house. I hope that complaints about shortcomings of the Department of Licenses and Inspections (L&I) translate into improvements at the agency. Doris J. Dabrowski VIA E-MAIL

THE WORST THING How can you be serious [Soapboxer, “Ruin to All,” Jeffrey C. Billman, July 22]? Are you aware of the current economic climate in this country? What do you think will happen if our energy bill doubles and the price of gasoline jumps to $4.50? My guess is social unrest. Capand-trade is worst thing that could happen to this country. Skip V I A C I T Y PA P E R . N E T

PROVING THE POINT Skip, you’re only proving [Billman’s] point. By demanding cheap gas now (yes, gas is artificially cheap due to subsidies), we hasten its depletion and shift the environmental and economic burden onto the next generation. We’d all be far better off if we were paying more now, which would reduce demand, buying us more time to transition to renewables while mitigating the impact on future generations.

SUCH GREAT HEIGHTS

³ DENNIS TAFOYA DIDN’T plan on being a crime novelist. So it’s a bit funny that The Wolves of Fairmount Park (Minotaur, June 22) carries the subtitle it does, emblazoned right there on the cover: “A Crime Novel.” Earlier this year, in an interview with former CP Editor in Chief Duane Swierczynski, Tafoya admitted that the genre label snuck up on him with his first novel. “When I wrote Dope Thief I thought I was writing a literary novel with criminals in it,” he’d said. “But my agent was the one who said, ‘Oh, no, this is a crime novel.’” Tafoya’s second book shows his comfort with the label. It opens with a (literal) bang and a quick shuffle of perspectives, and where Dope Thief arranged itself into a shaggy character study, Wolves displays the muscles of a tight plot and careful construction. It’s also a much better novel. This is, in part, because Tafoya embraces the mechanics of his genre, but more importantly, he has figured out how to command and sustain attention and atmosphere — which has little to do with subject matter and everything to do with the ability to create a world and implicate his readers inside it. Wolves’ world is a recognizable Philadelphia, not copied from a skyline postcard but sculpted out of neighborhoods from which you can see the skyline: Roxborough, Kensington, Spring Garden. Orlando, a junkie and the uncle of a drive-by victim, slips through the fringes of the city as he tries to figure out his nephew’s story. Orlando’s detailed street-level view takes in a proudly struggling city, from strange landmarks like the Divine Lorraine to an unnamed but very present Port Richmond Books. It’s a city that’s ragged around the edges, but clearly, identifiably, here. Realism, of course, isn’t the thing that makes a novel great, or even engaging. On the surface, Adam Langer’s The Thieves of Manhattan (Spiegel & Grau, July 13) is a lighthearted heist caper played by the rules of a confidence game that rides the fence between realism and bald-faced fiction.

Burt Phase II #7, Scott Chasse, acrylic on panel, 2010

[ first friday focus ]

’STACHE FROM THE PAST Visual artist Scott Chasse hops on the handlebars to ride a trend to its pre-ironic roots. By Carolyn Huckabay

ike flannel shirts and Wayfarers, the moustache has risen triumphantly, inexplicably, from the dead. It’s out there right now, sprouting handlebar-style from bike couriers’ upper lips. It’s screenprinted on T-shirts and tea towels sold for cheap on Etsy; it’s the center of attention at theme parties and facial-hair competitions. But New York-based artist Scott Chasse is not simply capitalizing on an oversaturated trend with “Moustache Bar.” The traveling exhibit, which makes its debut Friday at Old City production studio/gallery space Stupid Easy, is inspired by a time when moustaches exuded machismo, not hipster repurposing. Accompanying his meticulous dot-paintings of quintessential ’stache-man Burt Reynolds is a threedimensional, 1970s-era “basement bar” installation which comes complete with lounge chair, vintage stereo equipment and bar paraphernalia — a setup designed to remind us of old-school masculinity or, at the very least, our dads when we were young. We caught up with Chasse via e-mail to get to the bottom of the upper-lip phenomenon. City Paper: You’ve painstakingly dot-painted Burt Reynolds what seems like dozens of times. Why focus on him and the ’70s

(as opposed to, say, Tom Selleck and the ’80s)? Scott Chasse: First, I wanted to work with a celebrity image that hadn’t already been played out in a Chuck Norris sort of way. I’d like my artwork to connect with people as art, not as kitsch. I feel the longevity of Burt Reynolds’ career is a big reason why his likeness is so universally recognized, so he seemed to be a good choice for an image that would grab a large audience — an audience that often wonders, “Why is he painting Burt Reynolds so much?” Second is a more personal connection. I guess to put it bluntly, Burt reminds of what my dad looked like when I was a kid (I was born in ’74). This nostalgic association has pushed me to revisit and reinvestigate childhood memories, and that process has been the driving force behind the installation aspect of “Moustache Bar.”

“The look on Burt’s face exemplifies an overly confident machismo.”

CP: Is this collection — and its accompanying basement bar — a comment on stereotypical masculinity, or is it just a bachelor-pad moment frozen in time? SC: Absolutely there is a commentary on masculinity, both past and present. To me, the look on Burt’s face exemplifies an overly confident machismo circa late ’70s and early ’80s, a time when there was an accepted percentage of chauvinism much higher than today. His moustache is a connection between then and now, a fashion statement that has recently resurfaced after a long >>> continued on page 24

[ longing for a more munificent era ] ³ podcast

Anonymous Theatre sounds like a Russian sleeper agent’s theatrical wet dream: A play is written in secret. Actors never meet each other, working solo with the director, and never even tell anyone that they’re participating. On performance night (Mon., Aug. 9, pdc1.org), they blend in with the audience until cues bring them to life. The Philadelphia Dramatists Center adds even more interesting twists, including characters from Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night and Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya in an absurdist conflagration. —Mark Cofta

“Hotly anticipated podcast” isn’t a phrase you hear often, but I gotta say I’d been looking forward to The Pod F. Tompkast for a while. Famous comedian/Philly expat/ former employee of Hats in the Belfry Paul F. Tompkins has been popping up on the pods of his fellow comedians for years, and was always the funniest guy in the room. The totally free and smartly produced Tompkast — episode one features Tim Meadows, Jen Kirkman and some classic and classy PFT tangents — does not disappoint. (More info at twitter.com/Pod_F_Tompkast.) —Patrick Rapa

³ sculpture Quirky Philly hairstylist Julius Scissor brings his over-the-top personality to everything he touches — including his “soft sculptures,” created out of hair taken from his salon floor. “He has 30 bags of hair stored in his basement,” says Bambi Gallery owner Candace Karch. “His art is wacky, very different and crazy — that’s why I gave him the whole front room, so he can take advantage of the high ceilings.” Scissor’s exhibit “Converted” opens at Bambi Friday (Aug. 6, bambiproject.com). —Stephen Rose

³ DVD/TV Max Headroom — ABC-TV’s ’87-’88 sci-fi comedy series about ace reporter Edison Carter (Matt Frewer) and his jittery computer-generated alter ego — had more on its mind than quick quips and cyberpunk dazzle. It was also a fascinating comment on TV, news and media conglomeration. The pilot centers on blipverts, compressed ads that prevent viewers from changing the channel but can also cause fat people to blow up. Think about that next time an ad pops up at the bottom of your screen. Max Headroom: The Complete Series (Shout! Factory) series make its DVD debut Tuesday. —Molly Eichel

³ BELOVED AMERICAN SOPRANO Eileen

Farrell put out an album many years ago with the self-proclaiming title I’ve Got a Right to Sing the Blues. Who’s to argue? For that matter, Aretha Franklin has the right to sing opera, as she did in her gloriously note-twisting way last week at the Mann, in no less than three arias by Handel, Gluck and Puccini (of course, we also heard “Respect” and other favorites). The famous pipes are still in pretty darn good shape. Music-biz people used to call this kind of stuff “crossover.” That concept has produced so much embarrassing crap that most self-respecting music lovers run the other way when hear the term. The difference in the cases of Farrell and Franklin is that they are stretching their repertoire not because some publicist convinced them that it would be good for their careers, but because they love the music and want to express their enthusiasm to their audiences. That is a huge distinction. Classical composers have incorporated other idioms into their material for centuries, with tons of folk music folded into Beethoven, Dvorak, Bartok, Shostakovich, Copland, and on and on. Jazz has had an influence in this world almost from its inception. Stravinsky latched on by the early 1920s. A pair of recent CDs showcase two different, but equally daring, meldings of vernacular and academic musical styles. For “The Old Burying Ground,” Evan Chambers gives a potentially hokey, but ultimately powerful, setting of epitaphs from 19th-century New England gravestones.The mixing of folk singers and operatic voices is surprisingly effective in this evocative, theatrical work. Nader Mashayekhi is a contemporary Iranian-born composer. His “fié ma fié II” opens with the hypnotic, rhapsodic traditional Persian singing of Salar Aghili followed by a starkly minimalist orchestral part — big oozing clouds of brass and percussion mutating with a Morton Feldman-like deliberateness. Mashayekhi’s attempt to bring the two contrasting elements together does show its seams, but this is startling music-making nonetheless. Duke Ellington — who, along with his great colleague Billy Strayhorn, had their own encounters with the classics, including a boffo jazz Nutcracker Suite — put it so well. There are, he said, only two kinds of music: good and bad. (p_burwasser@citypaper.net)

[ A- ] TO WATCH SALLY POTTER’S Orlando is to be transported back to another time — not the 17th century, where the film begins, or any of the 300-odd years that follow, but 1992, when an art-house movie with a virtual unknown cast could still muster the resources to stage Elizabethan pageantry and cross continents in pursuit of a director’s singular vision. As you watch boats filled with flickering candles scud across the water, or a detachment of icebound Russians slide through the snow, it’s hard not to feel a sense of longing for a more munificent era. Tilda Swinton’s quasi-immortal, genderbending noble — a man first, and then, after a brush with the horrors of the battlefield, a woman — may be a figure out of time, but Orlando is heavily indebted to the movies of Derek Jarman and Peter Greenaway, directors who played — more inventively, it must be said, than Potter does here — with the hidebound conventions of the period piece. Sandy Powell, who would win the first of several Oscars for Shakespeare in Love, tweaks the breeches and hoop skirts just enough to instill a sense of self-awareness — a glittering, chitinous gown adds an almost futuristic flavor — while still giving audiences their pomp and circumstance. Loosely adapting Virginia Woolf’s novel, Potter splits her story, a tad too neatly, into sections, captioned “Politics,” “Society” and so forth. Although Potter taps queer icons to fill key roles — Quentin Crisp as Queen Bess, Bronski Beat’s Jimmy Somerville as a falsetto angel — Orlando’s politics are fairly subdued, deferring to the sublime opacity of Swinton’s performance. In her alabaster androgyny, she personifies the film’s bluntly stated thesis: “Same person … just a different sex.” Although Orlando flirts with Billy Zane’s ripe-lipped American, who may himself be a sexual flip-flopper, Potter cheekily rewrites the end of Woolf’s book so that Orlando ends up alone, with only her writing to sustain her. With anatomy up for grabs, art is the one thing that lasts forever. —Sam Adams

The following properties will be considered by the Pennsylvania Historic Preservation Review Board for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places at its meeting on October 5, 2010: 1)

Rittenhouse Historic District Boundary Increase, roughly bounded by Chestnut Street, 17th Street, Walnut Street, and S. 21st Street. Or you could say roughly bounded by the Rittenhouse Historic District and the Center City West Commercial Historic District, Philadelphia County.

Girard Avenue West Historic District includes both sides of Girard Avenue between West College Avenue at the east end, and North 30th Street at the west end, Philadelphia County.

Listing in the National Register, the Federal governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s official list of historic properties worthy of preservation, results in the following for historic properties: 1.

Consideration in planning for Federal, federally licensed, and federally assisted projects. Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 states that the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation must be given an opportunity to comment on all federally related projects affecting listed properties. For further information see 36CFR800.

Eligibility for Federal tax provisions: If a property is listed in the National Register, certain Federal tax provisions may apply. The Tax Reform Act of 1987 revises the historic preservation tax incentives authorized by Congress in the Tax Reform Act of 1976, the Revenue Act of 1978, the Tax Treatment Extension Act of 1980, the Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981, and the Tax Reform Act of 1984, and as of January 1, 1987, provides for a 20 percent investment tax credit with a full adjustment to basis for rehabilitating historic commercial, industrial, and rental residential buildings. The former 15 percent and 20 percent Investment Tax Credits (ITCs) for rehabilitation of older commercial buildings are combined into a single 10 percent ITC for commercial or industrial buildings built before 1936. The Tax Treatment Extension Act of 1980 provides Federal tax deductions for charitable contributions for conservation purposes of partial interests in historically important land areas or structures. Whether these revisions are advantageous to a property owner is dependent upon the particular circumstances of the property and the owner. Because tax aspects outlined above are complex, individuals should consult legal counsel or the appropriate local Internal Revenue Service Office for assistance in determining the tax consequences of the above provisions. For further information on certification requirements, please refer to 36CFR67.

Consideration of historic values in the decisions by the State or Federal government to issue a surface coal mining permit where coal is located. For further information see 30CFR70 et seq.

Eligibility for Federal grants-in-aid, whenever funds are appropriated by Congress. No funds are available at this time.

Owners of private properties nominated to the National Register have an opportunity to concur with or object to listing in accord with the National Historic Preservation Act and 36CFR60. Any owner or partial owner of private property who chooses to object to listing may submit to the State historic Preservation Officer a notarized statement certifying that the party is the sole or partial owner of private property and objects to the listing. Each owner or partial owner of private property has one vote regardless of the portion of the property that the party owns. If a majority of private property owners object, a property will not be listed. However, the State Historic Preservation Officer shall submit the nomination to the Keeper of the National Register of Historic Places for determination of eligibility of the property for listing in the National Register. If the property is then determined eligible for listing, although not formally listed, Federal agencies will be required to allow for the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation to have an opportunity to comment before the agency may fund, license, or assist a project which will affect the property. If you choose to object to the listing of your property, the notarized objection must be submitted to Jean H. Cutler, Deputy State Historic Preservation Officer, Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, 400 North Street, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17120, by October 4, 2010. If you wish to comment on the nomination of the properties to the National Register, please send your comments to the State Historic Preservation Office before the Pennsylvania Historic Preservation Board considers this nomination on October 5, 2010. A copy of the nomination and information on the National Register and the Federal tax provisions are available from the above address upon request. Please contact the Bureau for Historic Preservation Office (717-783-9933) for directions to the meeting location. If you are an individual with a disability and you wish to attend this meeting, and you require an auxiliary aid, service, or other accommodation to participate, please contact the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at 1-800-654-5984(TDD) to discuss how the agency can accommodate your needs.

WESTWARD HO!

There’s always been a prairie-size difference between how the West was won and how we told ourselves we won it. Of course, like any good mythology, the epic romance of the frontier was largely painted at a safe remove — note that its most famous call to arms, to “go West,” was made by Horace Greeley while comfortably ensconced in his New York office. But as the Rosenbach’s new exhibit makes clear, those who actually made the arduous trek were as responsible for its invention as those who spun exaggerated yarns about it in dime novels. “The American West was an idea as much as a place,” says Karen Schoenewaldt, who co-curated with Katherine Haas — an idea crafted on those flimsy paperbacks with covers depicting fierce Injuns towering over flinching but strong-hearted white women, or Buffalo Bill (himself a combo platter of legend and reality) proudly brandishing a scalp. —Shaun Brady Through Nov. 28, $10, Rosenbach Museum and Library, 2008-2010 Delancey Place, 215-732-1600, rosenbach.org.

GOING GREEN

The Asian Art Alliance and the Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education have brought to our shores an exhibition of photography, drawings and other video media from 16 green-minded, contemporary Taiwanese artists. Two internationally recognized artists, Chao-chang Lee and Pin-yu Pan, have been poking around the Schuylkill Center’s acres of farmland and foliage in search of — among other loamy muses — Buddha. Their on-site installations display a nuanced Eastern approach to environmental art, deriving its equanimity from the minimalist, technical style of traditional bamboo craftsmanship and calligraphy. Underneath a cathedral of Pennsylvania pines, Lee’s giant earth garden, arranged from cones, rocks and twigs, sketches out his holiness. Following this found-art, spiritual sensibility, Pan’s Ark for Plants translates a Taiwanese ark story into a bower, built from fallen branches to shield not the humans, but the trees. —Will Stone

Opening reception and panel discussion, Fri., Aug. 6, 5:30-7:30 p.m., free, Asian Arts Initiative, 1219 Vine St., 215-557-0455, asianartsinitiative.org; exhibit runs through Aug. 20, Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education, 8480 Hagy’s Mill Road, 215-482-7300, schuylkillcenter.org.

✚ HERE WE GO MAGIC

✚

It would be overstating it to say Here We Go Magic’s new album has a “sedative” or “hypnotic” quality, but I’d put it on a road-music mix only under controlled circumstances. Pigeons (Secretly Canadian) is some of the gentlest, dreamiest boy-based indie pop out there. Even when the snare drum’s chugging along at breakTwix speed, Luke Temple’s moussey voice and those chiming synths keep your pulse slow and steady.

POST POST

—Patrick Rapa

Don’t let the friendly faces fool you, these Bryn Mawr kids are sly and hot-blooded. Their first studio recording, the brand-new Residents EP, is a little angsty, a lot fiery, and somehow totally wide-eyed and haunted at the same time. The heartache and desperation (“How’d I get so good at losing?” repeated for emphasis) are so snugly wrapped in jangly guitar and dreamy keys you might dance the pain away. And lines like “Sometimes I try to light a fire just to see how you’d react” — well, they’re just psychotic. In a really charming way. Driven by Michelle Zauner’s breathy-then-belting vocals, Residents continues Post Post’s impressive skyward trajectory. Four songs of coy, catchy indie-pop. —Patrick Rapa Sat., Aug. 7, 9 p.m., $3, with Pet Milk, Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 N. Front St., 215-291-4919, kungfunecktie.com.

The Residents had some good ideas, but I wouldn’t call them “fun.” Los Angeles band Fol Chen seems like the next evolutionary step, an art-pop project you can groove to. They’re coy with their faces and identities. (There’s at least one lady and one dude, and they wear Chucks.) The music is shrewdly odd, but catchy, maybe even dancey. Their lyrics stitch the pretty to the apocalyptic. This is exactly what I thought we’d be listening to in 2010: trancey, clangy, absurd, half-hopeful, over-processed pop for the bombed-out/beat-up/4channing/music-stealing post-Lost endless-war generation. I miss Lost. —Patrick Rapa Thu., Aug. 5, 9 p.m., $10, with Baths and Virtual Virgin, Johnny Brenda’s, 1201 N. Frankford Ave., 877435-9849, johnnybrendas.com.

✚ ONE TRACK MIND ³ TURNING VIOLET VIOLET “You Have Fashioned” The trick to making chamber-pop work is amping up the pop. Philly quintet Turning Violet Violet seems to know this. Their debut EP, Fierce Remains (CheapO), offsets the dreamy swoons of its viola with some peppy handclaps, a couple guitar hooks and some strong, lovely harmonizing. “Gang vocals,” they call it. “You Have Fashioned” is a sneaky little asymmetrical power-pop tune; an unironic cowbell and a dah-duh-duh dah-dah chorus spring up between dense, head-scratching lyrics. “My brain’s as big as your brain, but if you keep turning this vice you have fashioned, my will grows either way,” sings Sarah Gulish, somehow blunt but sprightly. “My heart’s as strong as your heart, but if you keep tramping, bruising and stamping, I won’t tell footprints from veins.” It’s weird, but it sounds so sweet. Repeat listens are demanded and rewarded. —Patrick Rapa Fri., Aug. 6, 9 p.m., $10, with The Vanguard and Gemini Wolf, hosted by Meg and Rob, Johnny Brenda’s, 1201 N.

THE OTHER GUYS|BAdam McKay, grand duke of Will Ferrell’s one-man Theater of the Absurd/Naked, is mostly on target with this overly long, yet still pretty damn funny, spin on the buddy cop comedy. Maybe “spin” is not the right term

THE CONCERT|C+ Considering that it builds to a pounding Tchaikovsky climax, Radu Mihaileanu’s The Concert is almost preposterously mild. Alexei Guskov plays a disenfranchised Russian maestro who Party politics has reduced from orchestra conductor to Bolshoi janitor. While mopping up after the Bolshoi’s tyrannical manager, he intercepts a fax from a French concert hall requesting the orchestra’s presence two weeks hence and decides to assemble a shadow ensemble composed of fellow outcasts and apostates. After a few stumbles, and the necessary addition of a fumble-fingered oligarch (4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days’ Vlad Ivanov) to the cello section, they’re off to France to rendezvous with violin soloist Mélanie Laurent, whom Guskov is inexplicably fixated on procuring. Inexplicably, that is, until the inevitable last-reel flashback, which manages to be both utterly predictable and a letdown. Despite its setting, Mihaileanu’s movie has little interest in postperestroika politics, or indeed anything beyond its trite combination of prefab narratives: downtrodden man gets one more shot; the gang gets back together, etc. It’s an amiable enough Europudding, but one without much flavor. —Sam Adams (Ritz Five)

— there’s nothing seriously innovative about pairing a quote dispenser like Ferrell with a faux-irascible foil like Mark Wahlberg, but the team-up pops thanks to some dedicated idiocy and catchphrase-ready one-liners galore. Ferrell is Allen Gamble, a gullible, timid desk jockey who is trampled by brash superstar gumshoes like Danson (Dwayne Johnson) and Highsmith (Samuel L. Jackson). Wahlberg is Terry Hoitz, a former rising-star cop who is shamed into irrelevance after accidentally shooting Derek Jeter before Game 7 of the World Series (nickname: “The Yankee Clipper”). When a mundane paperwork arrest involving Madoff-like David Ershon (Steve Coogan) uncovers the bones of a multinational conspiracy, the partners see an opportunity to improve their standing on the dark-blue depth chart. The if-itain’t-broke Line-O-Rama approach that defines McKay hits like Anchorman and Talladega Nights is at full steam here, with the strangely lovable Captain Mauch (Michael Keaton, of all people) stealing more scenes than you’d think. Of course, there’s only so much of this formula most of us can keep down, and Wahlberg in particular drags his feet more than he needs to. —Drew Lazor (Pearl; Rave; UA Grant; UA Riverview; UA 69th St.)

COCO CHANEL & IGOR STRAVINSKY|C-

AGORA|C Alejandro Amenábar’s Agora is visually sublime. Breathtaking CGI setpieces transform modern-day Malta into fourth century Alexandria, complete with soaring columns and immense statues of the gods. If only Amenábar’s films (The Others, Abre Los Ojos) felt as epic as they look. Here it’s no fault of Rachel Weisz, who takes on astronomer Hypatia with equal wonder and strength; the film flounders whenever she’s not front and center. —Molly Eichel (Ritz Five)

Jan Kounen’s double-barreled biopic Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky doesn’t start well. For one thing, there’s its book-report title, which seems to promise a rote rehash of its protagonists’ lives without shape or insight. The movie’s saving grace is its performances but Coco & Igor offers inconsequential insight into its titular titans of modernism. —S.A. (Ritz at the Bourse)

THE HOTTEST 3D MOVIE OF THE SUMMER!

children sitting in goggle-eyed horror that, with the inevitable push of a button, we were all about to suffer our homes crumbling around us while our faces melted off of our skulls. Nearly three decades later, that nightmare scenario seems as nostalgic a remnant of the ’80s as Cabbage Patch Kids or Bugle Boy jeans. That’s precisely the problem, according to Lucy Walker’s doc, which argues that it’s time for the fears of nuclear holocaust, like legwarmers before them, to make an inexplicable and horrific comeback. Walker uses JFK’s speech regarding a “nuclear sword of Damocles” that could be triggered by “accident, miscalculation or madness,” and outlines how any one of those three potentialities could still occur today. She has heavy-hitter talking heads to back her up, but for the most part she turns in yet another in a series of indistinguishable advocacy

docs. Unsurprisingly, it works best at its most human, as in the story of Oleg Khintsagov, a Russian uranium smuggler who seems too inept to keep a meth lab from exploding. —Shaun Brady (Ritz at the Bourse)

CYRUS|C+ Despite the presence of name actors and a relatively inflated budget, Cyrus is of a piece with the Duplass brothers’ two earlier films. John C. Reilly plays John, a divorced schlub who meets the charming Molly (Marisa Tomei). Their relationship blossoms, despite a hint of secrecy on her part — which turns out to be her son, Cyrus (Jonah Hill), with whom she shares a slightly too-close relationship. The stage is thus set for an escalating battle between lover and “child,” but aggression is alien to the Duplass worldview, so a few early bouts of passive-aggressive sparring

DESPICABLE ME|A Gru (Steve Carell) is a supervillain settled into the doldrums of suburbia. When he’s denied a loan necessary to finance his theft of the moon he hatches an elaborate revenge plan to adopt three children. Despicable has the rare distinction of being defined by its inclusive storyline and good, clean laughs instead of its all-star cast, all of whom seem more interested in shaping funny characters than merely building up their respective vocal brands. —D.L. (Pearl; UA Grant; UA Riverview) DINNER FOR SCHMUCKS|C Jay Roach’s remake of Francis Veber’s inane 1998 farce The Dinner Game keeps the premise — a rising exec’s choice of guest for a dinner party in which attendees compete to bring the biggest idiot intrudes upon and complicates his life — but almost instantly distances itself from its inherent mean-spiritedness, insistent on preserving the likability of its stars. Paul Rudd is Tim, an ambitious financial analyst who could clinch a coveted promotion by playing along with boss Bruce Greenwood’s cruel games. But no sooner is the subject broached than he begins to feel guilty about it, agreeing only when he literally — and vehicularly — runs into Barry (Steve Carell), whose hobby is creating elaborate dioramas with taxidermied mice. Naturally, as soon as Barry enters Tim’s life, he begins to ruin it, via an avalanching series of miscommunications and slapstick mishaps that reach an almost overwhelmingly obnoxious pitch before Roach mercifully opens up the story beyond Veber’s one-set original. Roach tries to have it both ways, asking his audience to both laugh at Barry and to care for him, until it seems that every pratfall is immediately followed by a swell of sentimental strings. Used to dealing with broadly sketched cartoon characters (whether Austin Powers or the Fockers), Roach has a hard time transforming the buck-toothed, shaggy-coiffed Barry into a human being. —S.B.

only that he’s frequently distracted by increasingly panicky calls and mounting debts. His confused and sometimes sulky eldest, Clémence (Alice de Lencquesaing), resents his lack of attention, but can’t begin to fathom the extent of his pressures or, at least at first, the unexpected past he’s kept hidden. Reportedly inspired by the life of producer Humbert Balsan, the film changes focus partway through, as the family must cope with tragedy. —C.F. (Ritz at the Bourse)

THE KIDS ARE ALL RIGHT|B+ Jules (Julianne Moore) is married to Nic (Annette Bening), a doctor, and they have two teenage children, Joni (Mia Wasikowska) and Laser (Josh Hutcherson), conceived with the help of a sperm donor. As Joni gears up for her first year of college, her brother presses his newly adult sibling to find out the identity of their father (or, as their moms would put it, their donor). After a few demurrals, Joni gives in, and they set up a lunch date with Paul (Mark Ruffalo), an organic restaurateur who in some ways is living the life Jules could have had. So it’s not a surprise when he hires Jules and her nascent gardening business to redo his terraced backyard, or when the two of them fall into bed together. If The Kids

INCEPTION|B+ Dom Cobb (Leonard DiCaprio) infiltrates minds for a living. He uses dreams as a gateway, conducting industrial espionage in the target’s subconscious.

Director Christopher Nolan handles the mechanics of his Russian-doll worlds expertly, and with far more clarity than the jumbled set-tos of The Dark Knight. But it’s not clear after a single viewing whether Nolan has taken his own advice and put a single, simple idea at the center of his elaborate labyrinth. —S.A. (Pearl; Rave; UA Grant; UA Riverview)

JOAN RIVERS: A PIECE OF WORK |BRitz at the Bourse

Angelina Jolie is the titular CIA agent, suddenly accused of being a spy by an old Russian dude who just walks in off the street to say so. Even after the Russki turns around and kills two feds, the good guys still believe him, so the impossibly resourceful Salty’s gotta hit the road. Salt is a nice-looking spy thriller, with elegant brutality and visceral action sequences worthy of the Bourne series. —Patrick Rapa (Pearl; Rave; UA Grant; UA Riverview; UA 69th St.)

often Steinbauer brings himself into the story for no reason other than to provide what his subject won’t, a lowgrade shortcut that substitutes for real understanding. In a sense, Steinbauer ought to be the subject of a documentary, only instead of Rebney, its focus ought to be self-aggrandizing young filmmakers whose drive to make films overwhelms their moral judgement. —S.A.

your subject. Considering that the subject of Ben Steinbauer’s doc is Jack Rebney, the hot-tempered RV pitchman whose volcanic infomercial outtakes were compiled into a legendary underground video that later made its way to YouTube, Steinbauer doesn’t stand a chance. Rebney, now the caretaker at a tiny mountaintop resort in central California, is a fascinating and elusive figure, and the filmmaker’s transparently self-interested attempts to draw him out only underscore the wisdom of Rebney’s solitude. The movie’s most unambiguous fascinations come as Steinbauer digs into the tape’s (and later viral video’s) origins; turns out it was put together by Rebney’s aggrieved crew and submitted to Winnebago’s management in an attempt to get him fired. (Take that into account next time you’re tempted to enjoy an uncomplicated chuckle at some sap’s caught-on-camera misfortune.) But too

³SHARES IN SEASONAL Community Supported

Agriculture programs, or CSAs, have long been commodities with Philly’s buy-fresh, buy-local crowd — folks drop a lump sum for shipments of in-season goodness from area farms, then spend a week bolstering their vitamin intake and fretting over what to do with 4 pounds of Jerusalem artichokes. The CSA model is a brilliant option for city dwellers who want to get their hands on the best green stuff, but many programs offer little to no love when it comes to meat. Wouldn’t it be sweet to have access to a thick, juicy CSP — Community Supported Porterhouse? That’s precisely what Jessica Moore is doing with Philadelphia Cow Share (PCS). Launched in March, PCS narrows the disconnect separating cattle from urban carnivores by providing the bulkpurchasing option logistically unattainable via farmers market, co-op or grocery store visit. Moore grew up in Indiana, where she says her family engaged in a similar, if more informal, practice with herd tenders. She selects farms in surrounding counties (Chester, Delaware, Lancaster, Mercer) that raise cows the right way — grassfed, hormone- and antibiotic-free. Some of these clients are not even in the beef business — Moore says she gravitates toward farmsteads that rely on a bovine population “as part of the general health of their farm and their agricultural businesses,” citing a Lancaster-based fruit orchard that raises cows on its hilly topography as an example. From here, Moore oversees the butchering, processing, packaging and delivery of each PCS order, which can be placed for a quarter, half or whole cow — each order comes strictly from one individual animal. (Prices vary depending on the size of the cow, but $995 is provided as a ballpark quarter price.) Quarters range anywhere from 85 to 130 pounds of meat and feature a wide variety of cuts, from flank steak and filet to top round and cubed meat for stews in the winter. Moore estimates that a quarter share requires 5.5 cubic feet of freezer space, and will last a family that eats red meat once a week for about a year. “I’m buying from a farmer, I’m paying a butcher and a processing company, all of whom are family-owned and local,” says Moore of PCS’ appeal to the meat-eating, geo-conscious populace. “The money that [customers] are paying stays right in this region. People care about that.” (drew.lazor@citypaper.net) ✚ For more info, visit phillycowshare.com.

ARTS AND KRAFT Built by artisan hands, Fishtown’s new bar is as good as it is good-looking. By Adam Erace KRAFTWORK | 541 E. Girard Ave., 215-739-1700, kraftworkbar.com.

Mon.-Fri., noon-2 a.m. (happy hour noon-6 p.m.); Sat.-Sun., 10:30 a.m.-2 a.m. (brunch 10:30 a.m.- 3 p.m.). Appetizers, $7-$15; sandwiches, $9-$12; sides, $3-$5.

aters say bars in Fishtown are full of trash, and in the case of newcomer Kraftwork, they couldn’t be more accurate. Over the past year, the corner of Montgomery and Girard has become a spectacular dump, an enchanted cemetery where spare More on: parts make fair art at the hands of local sculptor Andrew Jevremovic. Discarded driver’s-side truck mirrors have become bathroom vanities. Old cymbal-shaped aluminum disks have become light fixtures that hover around the ceiling like a flotilla of toy-shop UFOs. Fazzio Machine & Steel owns Kraftwork’s picturesquely crumbling bricks. The firm tapped Jevremovic, a haunter of their Glassboro steelyards, to redesign and fabricate a space for a thenundetermined bar concept; he then tapped his neighbor Adam Ritter, owner of G-Ho’s Sidecar, to manage the project. Ritter signed on halfway into the renovation, well before Jevremovic installed the room’s piece de resistance above the Ushaped bar: a giant steel-and-wood saw that looks like a prop from

the movie of the same name. But instead of bound-and-gagged sinners, beer heads gather beneath to geek out over 23 traditional taps, one nitro and a hand-pump. Color-changing panels, built into the bar’s base, cast a neon glow onto bare, bike-tanned legs. On tap: cultish suds like Russian River Registration, Avery Collaboration Not Litigation and Southern Tier Oak-Aged Unearthly Imperial IPA, boosting a roster flush with local brews. All are organized on blueprint placemat menus, columns for details like style, ABV, glass size and price. One grid tells what’s on tap, while a mirror lists the planned replacement for each. When Pikeland Pils kicked, my server brandished his ballpoint, scratched it out and drew a line across the menu to the keg on deck: Dogfish Head Sah’tea. This happened twice during one dinner at Kraftwork, a great sign — quick keg turnover means fresh beer. Brews gets top billing, but you shouldn’t MORE FOOD AND miss bartender-about-town Christian DRINK COVERAGE Gaal’s cocktails. Appropriately, they’re AT C I T Y P A P E R .

So is Kraftwork’s staff, subscribers to the nonchalant excellence school of service. My everydude waiter did everything a fine-dining waiter would do, except be a dick. There was passion in his voice when he described the farm-fresh pedigree of the green tomatoes in one golden-fried starter — locavore lip-service perhaps, but delivered with sincerity that suggested otherwise.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not alone. Five out of every Six Philadelphians claim that they have gone on a rotten date. There are many causes of rotten dates. Inadequate funds, laziness, lack of creativity, awkward conversation and even bad breath can all result in a rotten date. If this sounds like you, then we suggest renting a scooter. To help fight this terrible occurrence, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll even give you a free rental when you rent one on a weekday. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two rentals for the price of one. You can even book ahead of time so they wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how cheap you are. Now all you have to do is remember to brush your teeth before you come. *See ad above*
