Homemade Vino And Biscotti

by Maria Merlino The 14th annual Vendemmia, a festival dedicated to art of home winemaking, had a new twist this year, a biscotti contest!

Mauro Castano of Carlo’s Bakery in Hoboken, NJ, made famous by TLC’s Cake Boss, was on hand to judge the entries. His wife, Maddalena and son Buddy were also part of the team. It was their first time at South philadelphia’s premiere wine festival, and they were very impressed by the event.

“We’re really enjoying it”, said Betty Bove, who won with her Soft Biscotti with (Cont. Page 12)

Hit And Run Driver Takes The Life of A 2-Year-Old (Cont. From Page 1) a teddy bear at the scene where the toddler was hit and killed.

“I heard about the baby; a poor little baby – I am heartbroken,” she said. She is not from South Philadelphia, she is from West Philadelphia; such is the impact of the hitand-run incident, residents across the City are mourning and appalled at the driver’s ruthless act. According to eyewitnesses, the driver hit the mom and kid, stopped to look back, but sped off down a side street on Saturday evening.

“How could a human being hit a child and keep on going, look at that child, and spin around and keep on going, how could you?” Kim Washington of Bella Vista said.

Pennsport resident Anna Smith said, “How can one person hit a 2-year-old child, and not stop? Not a real human being, that’s for sure.

HEART BROKEN Father, Christian Martinez, is consoled by a friend while talking to reporters about the death of his 2-year-old son, Derek.

Turn yourself in, and save your soul.”

Yesterday the father of the victim, Christian Martinez, told this reporter on the doorstep of his home on the

500 block of Washington Avenue that his family was in shock, but he does not think the driver will come forward.

“His Mom, our family, we are in a shock,” the 23-year-

old Mexican said.

“If the driver was going to stop, they would have done so at the time.”

Martinez and his family have lived on Washington Avenue for three years.

“Our community likes to take care of the children,” he said.

Martinez added Derek’s mom Dianica, who was involved in the incident, fainted when she woke up on Monday morning. She was confused and went to check on Derek in his room, Martinez said. Derek was not there, and when she realized what had happened, she fainted.

“Mom is still out of it,” Christian said.

The accident occurred at 8:26 p.m. on Saturday night, according to District police.

Dianica, 20, and Derek were on their way back home from the grocery store, and crossing the street when they were hit by a silver Mercedes.

The toddler was taken to

(Cont. From Page 1) The Fairmount Park Commission supplied Capozzi and company gloves, bags, supplies and brooms to make the cleanup work go faster last weekend.

Afterwards, a gourmet picnic lunch was supplied by Karloutsos for the hard-working volunteers.

Karloutsos said a new Boat House Restaurant would be opening soon in the park!

Karloutsos said he has a vision of a “glass-enclosed eatery overlooking the lakes.”

There is work – cleanup – and plans still to be finalized.

However, last weekend’s cleaning up of the pond scum

and revitalizing the gazebo will help. And with Capozzi at his side, the project will not be long getting off the ground.

Chairperson of the newly formed 1492 Society is Peter Ciarrocchi. Secretary is Joey DellaBarba, and vice president is Mark Rago, owner of Monte-Rago Funeral Directors.

The festival at Marconi Plaza includes Italian dishes and desserts from many of South Philadelphia’s famous eateries.

City FOP Endorses Corbett For Governor The Philadelphia Michael G. Lutz Lodge #5 of the Fraternal Order of Police yesterday announced its endorsement for Republican candidate for Governor Tom Corbett.

For Congress it endorsed Democrats Bob Brady, Bryan Lentz and Allyson Schwartz, and Republicans Rick Hellberg and Michael Fitzpatrick.

For Pennsylvania State Senate, it endorsed Christine Tartaglione and LeAnna Washington.

For State House, it endorsed Brendan Boyle, Kevin Boyle, Michael O’Brien, Tony Payton, Jr., William Keller, Pam DeLissio and Dwight Evans.

6th Council Race Will Be Contested Councilwoman Joan Krajewski would be the odds-on favorite to win the 6th Coun-

cilmanic Dist. seat if she decided to run again. However, she has decided to opt out and end her reign Dec. 31, 2011.

Who will replace her is anyone’s guess. There could be a grueling primary between two strong Democrats, if both elect to follow through with their intentions. One is Washington Savings Bank executive Martin Bednarek, a former member of the School Reform Commission, now a member of the Zoning Board and a long-time politico. The other is State Rep. Michael McGeehan, known for his hard work and his intentions to seek the seat.

If there is no primary fight, there will still be a tough battle for the seat, since the Republicans are eyeing it as winnable district seat.

AFL-CIO Fires All Guns Against GOP Candidates For the third successive week, the national AFL-CIO is on the offensive in Pennsylvania targeting Republican candidates in key races on their support for outsourcing American jobs.

the state’s largest labor group, the AFL-CIO, State Rep. Brendan Boyle (DNortheast) now has also received the endorsement of the state’s largest business group, the Pennsylvania Chamber of Business & Industry.

According to its website, the Chamber supports “projob, pro-growth candidates who believe in business’s rights to compete on an equal basis in the world marketplace.” Boyle was one of the few Democrats to receive the Chamber’s endorsement.

Boyle commented on his endorsement, “I am proud to be supported by both organized labor and business. For the past two years, I have tried to work in a bipartisan way to turn our state around and create more jobs. I’m glad that my work has been recognized by both labor groups and business groups.”

Boyle added, “The problems we face as a state are large and we’re only going to solve them by working together.”

Boyle was first elected in November 2008 securing

over 59% of the vote. This margain of victory was 10% higher than that of Barack Obama in the 170th Dist.

Boyle will stand for reelection in the Nov. 2 General Election.

Labor Poll Shows Murphy Takes Lead Service Employees International Union and Vote Vets Action Fund released a poll on Tuesday showing Democratic Congressman Patrick Murphy leading Republican Mike Fitzpatrick among likely voters by 49% to 46%, with 5% undecided.

Murphy enjoys an even wider lead among more likely voters.

Among the 87% of respondents who say they will “definitely vote,” Murphy holds a 50% to 45% lead. Among the 75% of respondents who actually voted in the last mid-term election in November 2006, Murphy’s lead expands to 52% versus 44% for Fitzpatrick.

Ex-Mayor Reed Anoints Toomey Stephen Reed, a longtime Democratic Mayor of Harris-

burg, endorsed Republican Pat Toomey for Senate this week.

Reed, who led Pennsylvania’s capital city for more than 25 years until earlier this year, backed Toomey during an event in Harrisburg. It came as Democratic opponent Joe Sestak has racked up endorsements from moderates like New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg and former Senator Chuck Hagel.

Reed, for his part, has endorsed Republicans in the past, including Tom Ridge and Arlen Specter.

“Pat Toomey is exactly the kind of candidate that Democrats, Republicans, and independents can rally around,” Reed said in a statement. “His background as a small business owner and his focus on job creation is sorely needed in today’s economy. I believe Pat’s emphasis on policies that will cut taxes, ease the regulatory burden on Pennsylvania businesses and workers, and encourage entrepreneurship will help our state and country achieve the economic recovery our citizens deserve.”

The Public Record • Sept 30, 2010

The cartoon to the right of this editorial reflects how our editorial staff voted on this one.

We had two others ready for this page. One showed the Elephant with his hand held up as victor by Ted Koppel.

The other showed him holding up the hand of the Mule.

It didn’t take long to decide, since we knew both sides would call the first of the two debates between Democrat Dan Onorato and Republican Tom Corbett an overwhelming win by their candidate.

In all honesty, we saw two candidates either of whom could easily and comfortably take the wheel as Governor of this Commonwealth. They’ve spent enough time in the political system to understand its nuances and the need to give and take in order to get majorities to approve any one goal or piece of legislation.

What should not happen after this election, should the General Assembly be split, or the control of both Senate and House be in the hands of the party opposite to that of the elected Governor, is partisan politics as usual. The State has over a $450 million budget shortfall that has to be resolved.

Let us not shed blood over the Marcellus Shale with a tax or not-tax agenda. Let us not lose time over the other hangups that have kept the two parties at bay. Just sit back and let common sense, not the minority interests of both parties, become the rule of the day.

Question: Can I get a jury trial on a fraudulent conveyance or preference case in bankruptcy court?

Answer: Many people think bankruptcy courts can’t conduct jury trials, and that all preference and fraudulent conveyance cases in bankruptcy cases (called “adversary proceedings”) have to be tried before the bankruptcy judge without a jury. But this is not true. The cost – to both sides – of a jury trial can be expensive, so it may also facilitate settlement. There are many reasons why – or why not – to have a jury, but the right to a jury is certainly something to discuss with your lawyer when preparing to defend a preference or fraudulent-conveyance case.

Next week’s question: Bankruptcy and collectibles … what can you keep?

Staph usually causes minor skin infections that can be treated easily. However, MRSA, a type of staph that has become resistant to antibiotics, can cause serious infections in the bloodstream.

MRSA has often been associated with the hospital setting. Nowadays anyone can get MRSA, even healthy young people who haven’t stepped a foot inside the hospital. According, to the Philadelphia Dept. of Public Health, community-associated

MRSA (CA-MRSA) is now commonly appearing in schools, gyms, recreation centers and other public places.

CA-MRSA spreads most often through skin-to-skin contact. It can also spread through objects that infected skin has touched, such as towels, razors, clothing, gym or sports equipment, and bandages. Treadmills, weights, yoga mats and anything else that touches the skin can be a potential breeding ground for CA-MRSA. If your workout includes a team activity where skin-to-skin contact and bruising is likely, you are at an increased risk of getting MRSA. To avoid CA-MRSA,

Scratching your head trying to figure out what fungal nail infections are? Don’t scratch too hard as fungi can live on the dead tissues of the hair (dandruff), nails, and outer skin layers. Due to the wet, humid nature of gym locker rooms, showers, and pools, fungi multiply like rabbits.

Fungal infections can take the form of mold or yeast, leading to some itchy situations.

Mold fungal infections can cause athlete’s foot, jock itch, ringworm or tinea capitis (ringworm of the scalp).

Yeast fungal infections are more common in women and can cause problems in the genital area and under the breasts.

Spending too much time in sweaty clothing or a wet bathing suit can increase your chances of getting yeast infections.

Yo! Here we go again with this item sent to me by Betty, a reader from Florida. It is about dancing in the rain, as told by a nurse.

It was a busy morning, about 8:30, when an elderly gentleman in his 80s arrived to have stitches removed from his thumb. He said he was in a hurry, as he had an appointment at 9:00 a.m.

I took his vital signs and had him take a seat, knowing it would be a while before someone would to able to see him.

I saw him looking at his watch and decided, since I was not busy with another patient, I would evaluate his wound. On exam, it was well healed, so I talked to one of the doctors, got the needed supplies to remove his sutures and redress his wound.

While taking care of his wound, I asked him if he had another doctor’s appointment this morning, as he was in such a hurry. The gentleman told me no, that he needed to go to the nursing home to eat breakfast with his wife. I inquired as to her health.

He told me that she had been there for a while and that she was a victim of Alzheimer’s disease. As we talked, I asked if she would be upset if he was a bit late. He replied that she no longer knew who he was, that she had not recognized him in five years now. I was surprised, and asked him, “And you still go every morning, even though she doesn’t know who you are?”

He smiled as he patted my hand and said, “She doesn’t know me, but I still know who she is.”

I had to hold back tears as he left, I had goose bumps on (Cont. Page 29)

The Councilwoman has long been known as a take-no-prisoners campaigner, and we suspect that this will continue in next year’s race as well. We certainly hope the contender knows what she’s up against; good looks only go so far in this business. A solid platform, a boatload of contributions and the heavyweight support of someone like Sen. Williams is absolutely necessary to be taken seriously – and still doesn’t guarantee a win!

Although some progressives see blood in the water around Blackwell over her lone vote to save CARL GREENE from getting axed, her reasoning made sense and is hard to argue against. Thus, we feel confident that unless something earthshattering happens, Blackwell will be reelected to her onemillionth term, but the obvious power struggle between Williams and Blackwell will go on.

Speaking of West Philadelphia, COUNCILMAN CURTIS JONES’ district office opening was a huge success. A community gathering of who’s-whos and community leaders complemented the event and the Councilman’s future sure looks good This is one Councilman who knows what to do to get elected: serve the people in their own neighborhood! I wonder why so many other Council Members seem to not understand this basic principle?

It is said politics makes strange bedfellows.

Thanks to politics, you have such things as Black folks standing behind Republican candidates despite the fact some of the endorsees have made it their business to make it as tough for people of color as they possibly can.

You sometimes have feminists endorsing folks whose interests are anathema to women and their needs due to politics. I mean hey, how else do you think Sen. Arlen Specter stayed Sen. Arlen Specter for as long as he did?

But the most recent set of really strange political bedfellows I’ve seen recently is the newly formed set of relationships between former Mayor John Street, former Republican mayoral candidate Sam Katz, and Tom Knox, the multimillionaire who ran for the Democratic nomination for Mayor nearly four years ago.

Apparently, Katz, who ran against Street twice in a set of campaigns that can best be described as rancorous, and Knox, who ran a campaign that used Street as a synonym for everything that’s wrong with Philadelphia (remember his constant repeating of the phrase ‘pay to play’?) have been having meetings with the former Mayor to get advice and counsel on how to take out the current Mayor, Michael Nutter, in next year’s primaries.

So far, the only one whose come right out and said he’s going for Nutter’s jugular is Knox, who’s got the kind of bankroll that could send Mixmaster Mike back to the turntables.

But I keep getting invites to join the “Draft Katz” Facebook page. In fact, if Katz does decide to throw his hat in the ring, Knox has promised to give him his support … and the money that I’m sure comes with it.

Now I can understand why Street is encouraging folks to challenge Mayor Nutter. The acrimony between these two is so not a secret. It came out during Nutter’s mayoral campaign.

It’s come out during the recent business with former Philadelphia Housing Authority Director Carl Greene (who will be the subject of next week’s column).

It’s even come out in the papers. In last week’s “Clout” column in the Philadelphia Daily News, Street not so subtly took a dig at Mayor Nutter, questioning his “Blackness”. It’s not a new charge from Street and his acolytes. Mayor Nutter’s appeal among the new so-called progressives, most of which are white, is something that has caused many Blacks to mistrust the Mayor.

The youngest son of JOHN ELLIOTT and JANE DALTON HOLLY, KYLE ELLIOTT, was married to the lovely LAURA BILSTEIN on Saturday, Sep. 25 at the Church of the Immaculate Conception in Andorra. The reception followed at the Philadelphia Cricket Club was attended by 350 guests. Among those in attendance were STATE SEN. & MRS. STEWART GREENLEAF, WENDELL & KATHY YOUNG, AUSTIN & MARGE McGREAL, and RICHARD HOY. All the Elliott children and grandchildren were in the wedding party. A grand time was had by all.

MAYOR MICHAEL NUTTER is out early on the warpath with his predecessor MAYOR JOHN STREET. There have been some sharp exchanges, and here it is only September of the year before the election for Mayor. It looks like BILL GREEN IV is going to be closed out, because he would have to make the same choice Mike Nutter did, of resigning from City Council significantly in advance of the primary election. Although it does look like TOM KNOX is a serious candidate and, of course, Knox’s candidacy appears to be backed by John Street, it seems that he will have more than adequate funding.

In the same genre, STATE SEN. MIKE STACK III is campaigning for the minority leadership position of the Democrats. Then, of course, one cannot forget the candidacy on the Democratic side of longtime campaigner for Mayor SAM KATZ. Katz ran a tough campaign and his margin of loss was slight compared to the winning margin of victory for Nutter, whose total amounted to 33% of the votes cast in the Democratic Party.

SNOOPER’S ELECTION SPECIAL: Here we are, just a few weeks to go, it’ll be ELECTION TIME here in Philadelphia. We have us an up-to-date ELECTION POLL taken from all parts of this State, and we did Philadelphia too. HON. TOM CORBETT is up by 15 at least, while ONORATO is sagging and badly behind. Yes, his commercials are against his own Party, THE DEMOCRATS. The SENATORIAL RACE is really, at this time, a lot closer and before Election Day, it’ll be really close. I warned The Democrats over and over, but they just don’t get it. “THE TEA PARTY” has not been involved yet, and God forbid, when and if they are, it will be very interesting! CHIEF, I am THE SNOOPER and I approve this entire message – 100%.

SNOOPER’S COMMENT: In case you haven’t noticed, our Mayor NUTTER has become his own “P.R. DARLING” and he’ll do anything to get in THE PRESS, TV, and even local RADIO. Question: When does this MAYOR actually work, because he is hardly ever in HIS OFFICE? Did you notice he and his “Idol”, The President, OBAMA, are like twins trying to outdo each other? Now he’s finally going after “deadbeats” and it’s about time; after all, he is after more money he can spend frivolously, as he continues to do. He’s still upset over his loss of the famous “SODA TAX”. What will he try next? Look out!

SNOOPER’S SOAPBOX: By now, we all saw the story about a FATHER, who got onto a bus to confront those who were BULLYING his INVALID DAUGHTER. Yes, he was quite upset and, upon seeing those involved, went into an outrageous rant. The Father was locked up, and is now awaiting a Court hearing. Let me ask all of you, was he right in protecting his invalid daughter from these bullies, even after notifying the school, who by the way, did NOTHING? My own personal feelings regarding this matter: There’s not A JURY in the World who would CONVICT him. Question: What would you have done in this case, especially since the school did NOTHING? SNOOPER SNOOPING: I was making the rounds of our local TV shows, and lo and behold, there’s the District Attorney, HON. SETH WILLIAMS, on a TV SHOW talking about how he became our DISTRICT ATTORNEY. He stated, “When I was a youngster, I wanted to be a DOCTOR, even to be a PRIEST. Naturally, the Medical Profession was just not in the cards for me, so I decided to go to LAW SCHOOL. Yes, I now wanted to be a LAWYER, (Cont. Page 29)

Brady Wins ONE MORE TIME!! Good Gov’t DROP Can Save Dollars For City Boxing Mitts

by Joe Shaheeli As City Council prepares to take up the issue of the DROP program, it is our time again to lay out the facts surrounding the program.

The DROP program, used properly, can have many positive impacts on the financial future of the City.

When used properly, the program allows City Department heads ample time to prepare for staffing shortfalls, which leads to more efficient ways to provide necessary services.

The program provides incentive for current employees to retire leaving positions open for consolidation. When their positions are filled, they are done so with lower-cost individuals (lower salaries, lower pension package, less

benefit packages, etc.)

While the Administration has called for the elimination of the DROP program, the real issue is the bad habit of dictating orders, rather than discussing possible solutions for major challenges of this great City, such as library closures, BRT elimination and brownouts.

In this instance, although the Boston College report was flawed, we can certainly see many ways the results purported to be costs could be alleviated. If the cost is related to the 4.5% interest rate, why not discuss the elimination in favor of a floating rate consistent with the market returns?

The Pension Board was experiencing a very manageable number of participants over the last five years and without

the Mayor’s gauntlet being thrown down, there is no reason to expect it would have increased.

At this point, City Council needs to do what the Mayor did not: Take the results of the study it commissioned from the Bolton group, and tweak the plan in areas of concern while insisting on the program’s proper usage as listed above.

To stop the outflow of talented employees who may have signed up in haste, Council should probably offer an “oops clause” to any new legislation, allowing any individual who signed up during the period from the Mayor’s announcement to the signing of the changes, a short period of time to revoke their entry.

Congressman Bob Brady thanked a rally of Fair Elections supporters Monday for giving him commemorative boxing gloves for his work as a “Democracy Champ.”

Congressman Brady’s House Administration Committee approved the Fair Elections Now Act — a historic step forward in putting elections back in the hands of voters. The bill, which would allow candidates to ignore corporations and special interests and run competitive campaigns by relying on small donations from their voters, will now go to the House floor for a vote.

The Congressman said, “The bill is designed to ensure that elections are put back in the hands of everyday working Americans, instead of us relying on corporate lobbyists to fund our political campaigns. If we are to have a government that is fair, effective and accountable, we need to have a system in which individual voters are as impor-

Ringside With The Shadowboxer State Rep. Kenyatta Johnson and South Philly’s Simon “One Punch” Carr will team up once again.

State Rep. Kenyatta Johnson and South Philly’s Simon “One Punch” Carr will team up this Saturday, Oct. 2 to support the Boxing Saver Project. Johnson is the featured guest at the 1st annual Simon “One Punch” Carr Boxing Classic, which is being held at the Marion Anderson Recreation Center, located at 17th & Fitzwater.

The Boxing Savor Project was designed to save kids from the streets through boxing and Carr considers his involvement as a way to give back to the

community.

The amateur boxing show will showcase young boxers from around the city, including some of the recently crowned Lucien Blackwell Amateur Tournament Champions.

The show will also feature a special tribute to the recently passed legendary boxing trainer Jimmy Arthur.

Weigh-in is at 11:30 a.m., with the first bout starting at 1 p.m. Admission is free for kids under 12. For kids 12 and up, the admission will be $10 dollars and $ 20 dollars for adults.

The Fair Elections Now Act would allow candidates to raise donations of $100 or less from their home state, which

would be matched on a fourto-one basis. The system is funded by the sale of broadcast spectrum, with no cost to taxpayers.

that I wanted to be a professional chef.”

It’s been said that the sweetest peach is just out of reach, and you might say that about Sonata. Even though it is on American Street, halfway between 2nd and 3rd Streets, it’s a tiny one-way street that seems to be surrounded by one-way streets all going in the same direction, and it takes a real effort to find it. Even though it’s just a half-block away, 2nd Street gets a zillion times more foot traffic, not to mention buzz in the press. (On the plus side, Sonata does have a big, free parking lot right next door, something that is as rare on Second Street as diamond rings on the sidewalk.)

“The name Sonata does come from my love for music,” said Mark, who was an executive sous chef at the Desmond Hotel in Malvern for seven years before opening Sonata. “I’ve been a hobby musician my entire life. I would have played music as a career, but it seemed at that crossroad in

my life that I could make easier living as a chef. I’ve since found being a chef pretty much parallels being a musician. The two careers depend on passionate individuals who don’t mind being poor.”

What’s definitely not poor is the quality of the food at Sonata. Mark’s philosophy is minimalist — using high-quality ingredients and allowing them to shine on their own.

Pork belly is the hot food these days, and no one does it better than Mark. And the amazing smoked tomato marmalade served with the pork belly appetizer ($10) is as close to perfection as 99 is to 100. A braised short rib entree (with celery root puree and baby carrots) had the texture of a steak but was so meltingly tender, it was hard to tell where the meat ends and the sauce begins ($23).

And my wife, a real mac-andcheese aficionado, proclaimed the butter-poached lobster mac-and-cheese entree ($27) “out of this world.”

Krystal Weaver’s desserts, such as the cherry “opera”

Len Lear cake with almond frozen yogurt ($7) and the chocolate decadence with a chocolate hazelnut “Chipwich” ($7), were simply other-worldly.

Also a graduate of the Philadelphia Restaurant School, Krystal was formerly executive pastry chef at Brassiere Perrier, and she was a member of the Gold Medalwinning US Culinary Olympic Youth Team in 2004.

The decor of the restaurant follows the same philosophy as the food: simple, minimal, tasteful, with some musical

themes hand-painted on wooden columns by Mat Tomezsko, a Northern Liberties artist, and a five-panel wall piece painted by artist Lena Karpinsky.

To see if our experience at Sonata was typical, I checked several restaurant blogs, and every entry out of the 20 or so I found was a rave. For example, Percy N. wrote on August 24 on yelp.com: “My wife and I ate at this little BYO and loved it … Everything was delicious and wonderfully presented. The staff were also very nice and attentive. I recommend it!”

A. Gras wrote on urbanspoon.com: “Sonata could be one of the top three restaurants in the city. Amazing menu and great atmosphere.

What else can you ask for?

Very well done. Don’t miss this place!” I think the day will come when Sonata will acquire awards the way diplomats acquire passport stamps.

by Len Lear Sonata, which replaced the short-lived Swallow in July 2009 at 1030 N. American Street in Northern Liberties, is one of those small BYOBs that are unknown one day and, thanks to word of mouth and raves in the press, suddenly become the restaurant du jour.

If it was on 2nd Street in Northern Liberties, Market Street in Old City, 18th Street at Rittenhouse Square or 6th Street in Queen Village, I have no doubt Sonata would already be at the top of the culinary hit parade. This place is not just a slice of life; it’s the whole pie.

Sonata has almost everything you need these days to break into the to-do list for foodies, who could break some fingers from an over-

dose of highfives after discovering this place. Sonata has a handsome, persona b l e , ultra-talented and creative young owner/chef, Mark Tropea, 30 (he looks even younger), a Glen Mills native who graduated from the Restaurant School of Philadelphia; a great young pastry chef/sous chef, Krystal Weaver; knowledgeable servers (our super server, Matt Aragona, is an Owen Wilson lookalike); and a really pleasant, friendly vibe.

The BYOB can seat 38 inside and 10 outdoors.

“When I was a teenager,” explained Tropea, “I got a job as a dishwasher at the Hilltop Pub in Glen Mills, which was basically just a corner bar.

One day the cook was a bit overwhelmed, so he asked me to make an Italian hoagie. Believe it or not, after I made that hoagie, I was hooked. I know it sounds crazy, but right then and there I decided

Maritime Council Sees Aker As Union Buster It’s time to stop funding Aker, the shipyard at the old Naval Base that has been doing its best to support foreign contractors over Philadelphia Unionists.

Gary J. Gaydosh, president of the Philadelphia Metal Trades Council, which represents the unions with employees at the shipyard, believes Aker’s dependency on public tax money to keep it afloat has to come with a proviso that Aker begin to fully utilize the skilled labor that can be found from the city’s many trade unions.

Gaydosh noted Akers has cancelled its apprenticeship program, making it more dependent on imported labor, much of which, he says, “comes from Germany.”

He heads a Council made up of 11 affiliated local unions such as the IUOE 542, IBEW

Gary J. Gaydosh ...Battling Leaders Local 98, Boilermakers Local 19, Plumbers Local 690, District Council 21, Carpenters, Iron Workers, Machinists, Insulators and Sheet Metal Workers.

Gaydosh has tried to get the three levels of political leadership — Federal, State and City — to get Akers to support and hire local union members. He said this shipyard facility has received “almost $500 million in public money, designed to

help it build ships and revitalize the old Navy Yard shipbuilding facilities.”

Gaydosh states, “For the past several years we have had problems with an influx of foreign workers and supplemental labor contractors that are not from the tri-state area, causing a problem that no one wants to address. We are losing jobs for local people because of Aker’s policies.”

He added, “Each time we lose one of our guys, they import a laborer. Presently they are using Konnerude, a Norwegian company, to supply them with the same craft experience our union members have. Not only that, they actually pay them an additional per-diem wage increment.

They earn more than our rank and file do.”

Aker is using layoffs as a pressuring tool for more dollars, because it does not have new order or enough work to keep its maximum level of 1,000 workers working. Its chief executive officer here is Jim Miller, who recently announced the impending

layoff schedule.

Aker is the second-largest US commercial shipbuilder.

The other is General Dynamics Nassco, of San Diego.

Though it has no orders to build another two ships, Akers wants to do so and needs a $150 million loan from the Maritme Administration of the US Dept. of Transportation.

Gaydosh said he is watching the layoff procedure closely. “Our labor agreement says subcontractor employees have to go first, before regular Aker employees are laid off.”

Gaydosh hopes Aker can get the loans it needs. He has faith Congressman Bob Brady, Sen. Arlen Specter, and others are working hard to secure that funding. However, he adds, “They must get guarantees from Aker to hire American labor first and foremost.”

In 2000, Aker took over the predecessor Kvaerner Philadelphia Shipyard, which got started with a $429 million taxpayer-funded shipbuilding subsidy in the 1990s.

Imported Cars Jam The Port Facilities The Port of Philadelphia has a happy problem. It’s been flooded with more car inputs then its most optimistic outlook had forecast when Hyundai Motor Co. announced it would be using the Port of Philadelphia to import its Hyundai and Kia vehicles.

That announcement and the beginning of shipments over a month ago created more work for the Port and its facilities, especially those located in South Philadelphia. Already over 23,000 Hyundai and Kia autos have arrived since August.

Union labor involved includes 150 members of the International Longshoremen’s Association Local 1291, and 180 members of Teamsters Local 107, with the later fueling, washing, adding accessories and giving final inspections to the cars which

then get loaded for shipment to showrooms.

Approximately 2,300 cars per week are now being shipped into Philadelphia after Hyundai moved to consolidate its East Coast operations, moving them from Baltimore and Newark to this port.

Presently the Port is able to process out close to 825 cars a day with two shifts working.

But, as time goes on, and sales do not justify the immediate delivery of these new automobiles, space will be needed to accommodate them.

Negotiations are reported to be underway with the Water Dept., which has expansive holdings along the river.

TWU Changes Its Union Leadership The rank and file of TWU Local 234, the organization whose rank and file run the SEPTA system, have voted a change in leadership, electing John Johnson to take the helm of the 5,000-man union.

Despite his efforts to gain a “decent” contract for the Union, Willie Brown was told by some of those who voted against him, his style wasn’t what they wanted to see in a leadership.

Brown forced SEPTA to the table with a call for a strike on Election Day last November at 3 a.m. in the morning.

The uproar from the ridership was felt by the drivers when they returned to work.

Johnson reiterated that sentiment, saying after the election, “Our rank and file did not like the way they were portrayed in the media. This was their chance to make a difference.”

He also gave Brown his due. He said, “It was a hardfought election. We took nothing for granted. I respect Mr. Brown, wo has been very gracious toward our team. We look forward to a smooth transition. We will come together as a union.”

Where Have All The Men Gone?

by Nathaniel Lee Members of several local organizations gathered at 67th Street & Woodland Avenue to protest the recent shooting of Daishaun Brown, 2, and his brother Joseph Brown, 8, as they played outside their homes in Southwest Philadelphia Organized by Anthony Jacobs, community outreach coordinator of the nonprofit group Creating a Village, the “Fed up Rally!” was called in an effort to challenge local residents to take back their streets. Unfortunately, not many did.

“Those boys deserved better than that,” shouted State Rep. Ronald G. Waters to the small crowd of onlookers who gathered at the rally.

“The people responsible do not deserve the protection which we afford them when we are silent on this issue,” asserted Waters as he challenged residents of the area to come out of their houses and boldly participate in the rally.

“I’m out here because I am fed up with this community right now,” said Anetta Johns, the children’s mother, who also pleaded with those who may have information which might lead to the arrest to the shooters to come forward. Repeatedly she asked that the shooters themselves surrender to authorities.

It is reported Johns is looking for a new home where she can start a new life for her children. “My kids are scared to come out. My 3-year-old just started eating again yesterday after a week,” said Johns, who reported her children no longer wanted to return to the neighborhood where the shooting occurred.

Community organizer Craig Melidosian appealed to those responsible for the shootings to “pick up the phone and call Waters’ office and make an appointment to turn themselves in,” promising Waters would see they would then be safely handed over to law enforcement.

Men United for a Better Philadelphia’s Executive Director Mark Harrell spoke about the absence of men in the community willing to take a stand to protect the neighborhoods in which they live.

“We have been out here on these streets for eight years .…

One of the things I have learned is that when it comes to getting men involved, it is the hardest thing we ever had to do,” said Harrell.

Despite the small turnout, there was still hope the challenge would effect positive change.

JAMES ROYAL of Strawberry Mansion Smart Business Association wanted to know how City can help jumpstart green technology in N. Phila.

CATHY SANTOS of National Alliance of Women Veterans congratulates Mayor Nutter for coming to GLBMA meeting.

A District Council Office In Wynnefield On Left, THIS SIGN says it all. A Councilmanic District office opens in Wynnefield. Fourth District Councilman Curtis Jones says it’s opened to give his constituents — who face a long trip to City Hall — an easier way to come to an office for service. On Right, COUNCILMAN Bill Green extends his congratulations to Jones at dedication of District office.

Let me tell the youngsters of our City, get your HIGH-SCHOOL DIPLOMA. This is definitely a good PREVENTATIVE FOR CRIME. I always tell them, go to YALE instead of JAIL.” Good advice Mr. D.A.!

SNOOPER SCOOPER: Sit down for this one Chief. Yes, HON. NELSON DIAZ, former Judge of the Common hopefully get it moving in the right direction. Some folks are even referring to her as “Mrs. Mayor.” Could she be our first woman and Hispanic Mayor? Time will tell, but she’s one to watch right now! As the youngest member of Council (she’s not even 40 yet!), she’s got the time and years to put in. Go get ’em, Councilwoman!

And it will especially be interesting to see who comes out of those strange bedfellows … and who winds up twisted in the covers. and “scoops”. Judge, it’s not just one person who helps put this column together. He stated both JAN and he really love to travel.

“In fact, I will be leaving once again, to visit some more important Countries, to see what they’re all about, and what they do to survive. I noticed you also mentioned our former PRESIDENT JUDGES and I was amazed, you got them all right. We love reading our PUBLIC RECORD NEWSPAPER too!”

True love is an acceptance of all that is, has been, will be, and will not be. The happiest people don’t necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the best of everything other ‘rival’ driver, and he is lucky to be alive. Now we have two TOW TRUCK DRIVERS fighting over territorial rights, and this one ends deadly. Can you believe it? Yes, one tow-truck driver proceeds to run over another ‘rival’ TOW-

With all the jokes and fun that are in emails, sometimes there is one that comes along that has an important message. This one I thought I could share with you.

Thanks, Betty.

TRUCK DRIVER, not once, but he runs over him a few more times to make sure he got him. Again, STUPIDITY at its worst!

Now we have a dead human being, and for what?

COUNCILMAN KENNEY is right: Go after them!

(Cont. From Page 20) But it makes me ask a couple of questions.

I wonder whom Mayor Nutter has ticked off within the Democratic City Committee. Did he miss an important function?

Did someone’s kid not get a job in City Hall? I ask this question because the DCC will endorse a ham sandwich if it’s an incumbent and will usually strongly discourage folks from going after incumbents.

Two, what does Street have to gain by helping either Katz, with whom he had some really nasty debates during the 2003 campaign or Knox, who has yet to show me or anyone else that he really has a grasp of this city’s problems or how to solve them?

I ask this question because Street doesn’t seem

a Democrat … and that is that he ran for Mayor twice as a Republican.

We have a year before we have to consider the answers to these questions, but knowing that there will be competition for the city’s Pleas Court, and one who is seriously being considered to replace CARL GREENE as head of THE P.H.A., has stated, “SAM KATZ will beat MAYOR NUTTER in the next upcoming MAYORAL RACE.” The Judge made no bones about it either. “SAM will win, and this will be his fourth go around.

SNOOPER’S EMAIL BUREAU: How about our man HON. CHARLES CUFFELD, who is bewildered as to how we knew about him and his wife JAN being in FLORIDA not too long ago.

He wanted to know how we do it and get it right. He was very curious as to how THE SNOOPER gets all his news

like the type to do anything for anyone without getting something in return. It’s how he’s lived his political life.

And three, Katz has a big minus working against him should he run for Mayor as
