By Jacob Lambert feedback@philadelphiaweekly.com If early prognostications were correct, the Board of Revision of Taxes was voted out of existence in yesterday’s primary election, joining Ron White, Ira Einhorn and Adam Eaton in Philadelphia’s historical purgatory. The BRT, exposed by the Inquirer as inept, unjust, and possibly corrupt, was likely snuffed by a ballot question, the only mourners being the ousted board members themselves. They’ll be hard-pressed to find part-time jobs that pay $75,000 a year, full benefits included. It’s a rare public expulsion of the greasy Old Way, and for city residents, it couldn’t come at a better time. At a moment when property-tax increases are being floated by City Council, the fairness and uniformity of future reassessments becomes that much more important. Receiving notification of a tax hike is never welcome—I say this from experience—but if it does come, it should at least be sent by a group more reputable than Cobra Command. Like his constituents, Mayor Michael Nutter has eagerly anticipated the BRT’s demise. In recent weeks, he has talked about the agency as if it were a foaming killer, calling it a “rogue board” that “must be brought under control.” In April, he termed the agency’s assessment system “garbage” and “a disaster,” adding that he had “an extreme amount of concern about the credibility of the current numbers and process.” Then he slashed their pay. For Nutter, such fieriness was unusual, if not wholly out of character. In almost every situation, whether discussing crime, revenue or Mummers, he maintains a Ben Stein-like evenness, concerned yet unruffled. But here he was last month, sounding off like Bobby Knight. Where did this feisty new Nutter come from? That Nutter, I believe, came from an understanding that in hammering away at the BRT, he had a sure political winner. Need to look tough in front of a camera to convey a sense of strength? What better foil than the BRT—an entity roughly as reviled in Philadelphia as Comcast and the Cowboys? At a time when Nutter’s support was stagnant, his milquetoast image

venues out of business if we would have to file paperwork for individual event permits to our local police district, who could deny the permit up to 10 days prior for any or no reason at all. Since JB’s puts on approximately 300 events per year, this requirement would be onerous not only for us, but for our local police … I also do not believe that the venue-promoter contracts should be a matter of public record … It seems as if a few out-of-hand events have led to a bill that cripples a lot of legitimate promoters and venues with its bureaucratic requirements, when what the Council

How will the mayor boost his image now that the BRT saga is over?

“My immediate reaction is speechless. For a city with such a rich cultural history in art and music, to pass such a broad law that affects the freedom to create and express, is absolutely insane. As an independent artist who has been creating and representing Philadelphia worldwide since 1986, I find this bill to be absurd for a few reasons. First, from the perspective of a creative ambassador for Philly 360, which the tourism board of the city has honorably named me (as well as many others), this bill will definitely hurt one of the most important tourist attractions in the city, music performance. So many musicians, DJs, singers and bands come to Philly to perform. Most play for independent promoters and clubs, which create one of the richest music communities in the world. This law would make the flow of business and creativity virtually impossible. Many shows come together in a matter of weeks and they turn out to be the best events of the year. Second, as a Pew fellow who has contributed musically to this city’s rich heritage, I could not have done this if this bill was in effect. Also, the way the music business is now, our main income isn’t from sales of recordings but through live touring and shows—most bands do their own shows in Philly. Our mayor was a DJ, he knows how this all goes down. So why would he let this happen?”

life-threatening issues in the city. It creates a lot of meaningless red tape for artists, venues and promoters … It leaves culture in the city in the hands of corporations like Clear Channel.”

P H I L A D E L P H I A W E E K LY

Up until last week, the handful of local promoters aware of Bill 100267, aka the “promoter’s bill,” were at City Hall advocating against it. But the issue went viral over the weekend and now thousands of people have signed an online petition and are speaking out against what they see as a bureaucratic wrecking ball that, if passed, would demolish Philadelphia’s local music and arts scenes. As it stands, the bill proposed by Councilmen Bill Greenlee and Darrell Clarke in late April is as unclear as it is nonsensical: It would require all promoters (though it’s unclear who exactly qualifies as a promoter) to file paperwork with the Philadelphia Police Department 30 days before each and every event. In Philly, where two corporate Goliaths (Live Nation and AEG) and a shit-ton of indie Davids create the arts and culture scene, the burden of preparing and filing the paperwork alone could drive many promoters out of business. Besides, 30 days is an unrealistic lead-time for many of these events. The bill would also require that promoters reveal what they are paying venues—a huge disincentive that would undoubtedly result in severed business relationships and fudgy numbers—and specifically states that promoters are responsible for the behavior of all guests at the events. A roundtable of local promoters sounded off on their reaction to the bill:

Nutter’s Bread & Butter

really wants to do is punish a few fly-bynight promoters and special-assembly licensees. In essence, the current bill is so indiscriminate that it is akin to using a crop duster when a fly swatter would do.”

He’s learning to control his behavior, and has established himself as a leader. “Being a bulldog makes me feel as though I can be something in life … I can inspire people to do better.” Jay plans on attending college and playing professional football, but in the meantime, he’s staying out of trouble. “I’m working now,” he says, “it’s a small job at McDonald’s, but its enough to help my family out.” And keep him off the streets.

Over at Daniel Boone, another North Philly school in the Camelot program,

the staff prides itself on connecting to the students.

“Relationships [with students] are formed instantly at the admissions process until graduation or restoration,” says Angel Colon, Boone’s program director. “Our model is based on rapport and building positive relationships with our students.” Patricia Ellison was sent to Boone after numerous fights and suspensions at Joseph Pennell elementary. The oldest of her siblings, the 11-year-old recalls the days when she was being sent home from school on a regular basis. “My younger brother, who’s 8, would always say: “‘Tricia’ you don’t have to always [fight] you can just talk it out,” says the sixth-grader. “I would feel kind of stupid because I’m having my little brother tell me this when I should know this.” Patricia admits that her mother and grandparents spent a lot of time and energy addressing her behavioral issues, and even took her to see a therapist. “It was a lot of pain,” she says, “I was putting my mom through a lot because of all the court dates.” “I like Boone … the teachers respect you,” says eighth-grader Khalid Rutling. “If you give respect to them they’ll give it right back.” Rutling says he ended up at Boone after he got caught up in a fight while attending John Paul Jones Middle School. “I was just at the wrong place at the wrong time,” he says. The school district continues to track the students’ performance after they leave the Camelot schools. “It is reinforced that there are consequences both positive and negative to their actions. This applies not only to education but to the students’ daily lives,” Colon says. “In the past, we have seen students return [to Camelot] but it is a rare occurrence. The PLP is designed to be a helpful tool to prevent students from returning to transition schools.” n

John Briley, musician and promoter

“I love my city, and being a part of the music community—it is one with a rich history, which thrives on the spirit of our independent and local artists … Is City Council interested in thinking up innovative ways to aid and support the countless individuals who help make our city a beacon for art and music? No, but that is nothing new. What is a surprise is the city’s willingness to turn around and consider a move in the opposite direction—in the form of another burden to the local art community and the clubs and venues which host them.”

Andrew Lipke, musician and promoter “This is absurd. Even if everyone

filed the necessary paperwork the city would never be able to review all the information and would become backlogged and overwhelmed, making the whole enterprise worthless. Besides that, what’s the reasoning? There are already strictly enforced zoning laws for

the location of music venues and people are certainly allowed to throw parties with music/entertainment/alcohol in places they own.”

Ben Morgan, music director of Millcreek Tavern “This will certainly hurt

small companies like Village Green and Cloud Entertainment who are building their networks by putting on small-scale events. This is how you build a base to eventually make money, but there is very little revenue in small concerts—and it takes years of building before you start seeing the benefits. Honestly, in my world of underground rock-based concerts, no one since R5 Productions has even come close to getting a large-scale concert operation off the ground.”

Mark Wolfe, promoter “There are already laws governing capacity. Those clubs can be fined or worse, shut down. I’ve seen L&I do that the night of a show for far, far less … As for this booking license thing, this will cause events to be taken out of the city. I know I would not ever consider applying for such a ridiculous thing that has no benefit to me other than a means to sue me and my insurance company.” n

hardening, the board offered itself up as an easily condemnable villain. Following Tuesday’s vote, however, that surefire anger-op has vanished, leaving our Adam West Batman with no clumsy Penguin to pummel. While the BRT’s abolishment is a plus for city residents, it strikes me as a bit of a loser for Nutter. While he may now claim victory over the dastardly evildoers, in truth he never got his hands dirty: The Inquirer did most of the work with its 2009 investigation, uncovering the board’s every flaw, weakening it to nearnothingness. All the mayor had to do was give the stumbling crook a finishing shove. But now that the BRT has been dragged away, Nutter has lost a useful publicity tool. As mayor, his glower has never been convincing, a fact made evident during strike negotiations with SEPTA last November. As with the BRT, he publicly challenged union head Willie Brown—yet in this case, Nutter wound up looking ridiculous: Brown got off his “Little Caesar” line, Bob Brady rushed in to put things right and the mayor sidled out, lessened by the episode. What was different? Unlike the BRT, SEPTA had an argument to make. And unlike any of the board’s members—who mostly lowered their heads as the executioner neared—Brown was spoiling for a

fight. By April, Nutter had learned that those fights are more winnable when your opponent’s hands are tied. So what can he now swing at with similar impunity? The pickings are slim: While the city is plagued by crime and inefficiency, casino drama and the Philadelphia Parking Authority, nothing carries the mix of media revelation and public distaste of the BRT affair—and it’s unlikely that Nutter will soon find such a patsy. Meanwhile, the fire already seems to have left him: In a letter to the Inquirer last week, he responded to accusations that he was “‘missing from the debate’ regarding various ethics and campaign finance bills”: “Perhaps you missed the testimony of my chief of staff, who voiced my administration’s vehement opposition to a Council proposal that would give it ... the power to set rules governing political activity of city employees.” Yes, Nutter’s opposition to Council’s proposal was so “vehement” that we all really did miss it—a far cry from the outraged sound bites he spat at the BRT. While he may have genuinely wanted to be rid of the board, he’ll miss the easy anger it provided. It’s like my mother always said: Be careful what you wish for—you just might get it. n

The terror attacks in India made international headlines.

n the afternoon of Nov. 26, 2008, death came ashore at the Indian coastal city of Mumbai in the form of 10 Pakistani assassins aboard a rubber dinghy. Young and cocky, the killers were dressed in bluejeans and cargo pants, pumped up on steroids and ripped from months of rigorous physical training. They brandished AK-47s and carried backpacks loaded with grenades and ammo. When fisherman asked them what was going on, the gunmen told them in f luent Marathi to, in effect, go fuck themselves. The fishermen reported the incident to police who, tragically, paid it no mind. Over the course of the next 50 hours, the gunmen would kill 164 people—including six Americans—and injure hundreds in a vicious three-day wave of violence, according to the Department of Justice. They split up into small groups and fanned out across the city, navigating by GPS and keeping in constant cell phone contact with their minders back in Pakistan. They blew up taxis, tossed grenades into crowds, murdered police officers and indiscriminately mowed down bystanders at a crowded cafe, movie theater and a train station with a blizzard of hot lead. They stormed two five-star hotels, set them on fire, took hostages and slowly tortured, disfigured and then executed them one by one. One team of gunmen entered a women and children’s hospital with the intent of killing as many patients as they could, only to be thwarted by hospital staff that had locked down certain wards. Once inside, the gunmen again asked the staff their religious afﬁ liation. When one man answered ‘Hindu’, they shot him in the head. Another team took over a Jewish center called the Mumbai Chabad House, where they killed six hostages, including a rabbi and his pregnant wife. The gunmen injected cocaine, LSD and steroids to enable them to ﬁght police for 50 hours straight without food or sleep. Nine of the 10 were eventually killed by police, with one taken alive. This would become known as the Mumbai Terror Attacks around the world, but inside India it would be called 26/11, or India’s 9/11. The bloodbath would shock the world and push India and Pakistan, two nations with nuclear arsenals and a long history of violence, to the brink of war. The trail of evidence led not only back to neighboring Pakistan but also halfway around the world to Philadelphia. David Coleman Headley lived in Philly for more than 30 years before moving to Chicago shortly before the Mumbai attacks. Authorities allege that Headley served as advance man for many jihadist terror plots, and scouted out locations for the Mumbai attacks. He was arrested by federal agents back in October, and in late March he pleaded guilty to charges that he served as reconnaissance man for the Mumbai operation, traveling to India on five occasions to scope out and videotape the pre-ordained killing zones—chosen for their landmark status, sizable number of foreigners they attracted and relative lack of security—and record GPS coordinates, all of which he hand-delivered to the operation’s Pakistani masterminds. Headley also pled guilty to being one of the ringleaders of a plot to attack the offices of Jyllands-Posten , the Denmark newspaper which drew the fury of the Islamic world in 2005 for publishing mocking cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad. Working in tandem with al Qaeda, Headley made numerous trips to Copenhagen to scope out and videotape the newspaper offices. The plot was simple:

storm the newspaper, take everyone hostage, behead them one by one and throw their heads out into the street. It was designated a suicide mission and if all went according to plan there would be no survivors. The plot was in its advanced stage, but authorities arrested Headley before it could become operational. Headley struck a deal with authorities after his arrest. He would be spared the death penalty in exchange for complete cooperation. His information has reportedly led to numerous arrests in Pakistan, including former army ofﬁcers, former intelligence operatives and members of Lashkar-e-Taiba, a militant Islamist organization based in Pakistan that routinely carries out paramilitary operations in the Kashmir region that buffers the borders of India and Pakistan. LET is said to have a cozy relationship with Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), the equivalent of the

CIA. Additionally, Headley’s cooperation led to the arrest of an ofﬁcer in the Indian army who was caught forwarding classiﬁed documents to the Pakistani army via computer, according to news reports. Headley is an American citizen whose mixed parentage—his father was a Pakistani national and his mother was American—enabled him to straddle the divide of the secular West and the Islamic East, making him a high-value asset for any jihadist organization. Headley’s mother, Serrill Headley, founded Old City’s Khyber Pass (now just known as the Khyber) back in the ’70s. As a teenager, Headley lived above the bar and he would eventually manage it for his mother. He would later go on to become a video-store entrepreneur, international drug smuggler, and, after getting caught with two kilos of heroin, he bacame an informant for the DEA, according to the Inquirer. He would also earn the grim distinc-

in 1960 in Washington, D.C. His mother, who died in 2008, grew up in Bryn Mawr and ran away from home when she was 15, eventually settling in the nation’s capital and finding work as a secretary, according to the Inquirer. “She was very independent, very freewheeling,” says her brother, William Headley, who owns a day-care center in Nottingham, Pa. It was in D.C. that Serrill met and eventually married Pakistani diplomat Syed Saleem Gilani. “He was very charming and distinguished,” William says. “He swept her off her feet.” Shortly after Daood was born, the family moved to Karachi, Pakistan. But Serrill, whom her brother characterizes as a proto-feminist, soon chafed under the chauvinism of Pakistani society. “She told me that Daood’s father had hit her,” says Lisa Sloat, a veteran bartender in the Philadelphia restaurant scene who interviewed Serrill for a bar guide she used to publish in the early ’90s. “She told me she left him and escaped through the Khyber Pass to Afghanistan. That’s why she named the bar Khyber Pass.” Serrill eventually returned to Philadelphia—without Daood (“In Pakistan, men own the children,” she was quoted as saying at the time. “There are no rights for women.”)— and in 1973 she enrolled in bartending school. “She was a stunner, snow-white skin,” recalls Ronnie Horsman, 85, who ran the Philadelphia Bartending School. “After she took the course she told me she was going to buy a bar on Second Street. I told her ‘Hold on, you should try this out first and see if you like it’ but she had her mind set.” And so the Khyber Pass was born. Serrill decorated the joint with exotic accents, like the hide of a Bengal tiger that once killed a man on the Ganges and an oversized portrait of Queen Victoria. She covered up the waterdamaged ceiling with tented fabric, mounting hand-painted camel skin lamps onto the bar and knocking out two holes in the wall to create a music-performance space next door. She also offered customers an extensive selection of beers, stocking the cooler with nearly 200 brands from

around the world. “That was unheard of at the time, this was way before the craft-beer revolution,” Sloat says. She opened the city’s first wine bar upstairs. Year after year, the Khyber Pass would be voted Best Pub, Best Jukebox and Best Live Music Venue in readers’ polls. In 1977, Serrill returned to Pakistan and convinced the then teenage Daood to drop out of the military academy he was attending and come live with her in Philadelphia. “I remember him showing up dressed in white and carrying a cricket bat,” William says. Hours in front of the TV helped soften the culture shock. “I think Daood learned everything he needed to know about the American family from Happy Days.” Still, Daood was shocked by his mother’s libertine lifestyle: the drinking, the revealing clothes, the f lirting with men. “In Islam, human behavior is divided into two categories: ‘halal’ and ‘haram’, the permissible and the forbidden,” William says. “My sister did a lot of things that are ‘haram’.” Serrill’s romantic life was further cause for friction between Daood and his mother. When Serrill found a new love interest, it took precedent over everything else in her life, including Daood, according to William. “She eventually turned her back on David and that was just unforgivable, in my opinion.” Eventually, Daood assimilated into American life. He enrolled in Valley Forge Military Academy, but lasted just one semester. Friends of his mother believe that it was there that Daood first developed a taste for illegal drugs. He also developed a taste for alcohol, holding court at the Khyber Pass over splits of champagne, romancing a string of young women drawn in by his striking good looks and unusual eyes— one blue, brown. In 1985, he married a woman he met at the bar, a Penn State grad who lives and works in the area as a real-estate consultant, but who has asked that her name be kept out of news reports. “When he would go to Pakistan he would get all riled up again,” the woman told the Inquirer last fall. “Infidels. He would use words like that. When he would see an Indian person in the street, he used to spit— spit in the street to make a point.” Much like his parents’ marriage, this union would not survive the cultural differences; two years later it ended in divorce. “I guess he was torn between two cultures,” she told the Inquirer. “I think he liked both. He didn’t know how to blend them.” By 1987, hobbled by health issues

tion of being the American jihadist with the highest body count. Much has been written about Headley, especially in India, where he is regarded as Public Enemy No. 1, but for all we have learned, he remains something of a cipher, quite literally an international man of mystery.

and business difﬁculties, Serrill put the bar up for sale. It was eventually purchased by the Simons family. Brothers Steve and Dave Simons assumed management duties and the Khyber re-opened in the fall of 1988. Under their stewardship, the Khyber would become a local mecca of indie-rock with a national rep among touring bands as the place to play in Philadelphia. Meanwhile, Daood and his mother started a video-store business called Flik’s, which would deliver rental videos to your doorstep. He also became involved in less legitimate forms of commerce. “He got involved with some bad people, which is not unusual when you live above a bar,” William says. Returning from a trip to Pakistan in June 1988, he was arrested at the airport in Frankfurt, Germany, when customs agents discovered two kilos of heroin hidden in the false bottom of his suitcase. Daood was turned over to the DEA and quickly agreed to cooperate in return for a lighter sentence. Two days later, he was back at his apartment on New Street, which had been wired for sound and video by the DEA, handing the suitcase of heroin over to two drug associates just before the feds pounced. In return for his cooperation, his sentence was cut in half, to four years. He was released on probation in 1992 and his pass-

port returned to him so that he could return to Pakistan to proceed with an arranged marriage to a woman named Shazi, who would eventually bear him four children. But Daood had a hard time meeting the terms of his release, and after flunking a series of drug tests, he was sent back to prison in 1995 for six months. Two years later, he was again arrested by the DEA for smuggling heroin from Pakistan into the United States, and quickly agreed to wear a wire when he delivered the drugs to dealers in a New York hotel room. Despite this being the second time he was arrested for the same felony, he was sentenced to just 15 months. The man he delivered the drugs to, James Leslie Lewis, was sentenced to 10 years. In exchange for his light sentence, Headley worked as a confidential witness, ensnaring three low-level drug dealers in heroin buys. Within six months, Headley was released and allowed to travel to Pakistan, where he collected intelligence on the heroin trade for the DEA, according to the Inquirer. “The people he was fingering were very scary people, very high up in the Pakistani drug trade,” William says. In exchange, his probation, originally intended to extend to 2004, ended in December of 2001. “Daood told me that when he got busted the second time he told himself that if he got out of this, he would give his life over to Allah. I don’t think he ever took a drug or a drink again.”

ASK THE INTERVENTIONIST Brought to you by Treatment Solutions Network

My father is in his 70s and had a hip replacement last year. It was a very painful process for him but it didn’t take him long to begin abusing his pain medication. I am certain he has a problem but what do I do?

If your parents or neighbors were ill or needed help, you’d do everything you could to help, wouldn’t you? But when that same older person shows signs of having a problem with alcohol or prescription drugs, it’s hard for most people to know what to do or say. Yet, alcoholism and the misuse of prescription drugs are becoming a life-threatening epidemic in older people. It is estimated that 70% of all hospitalized older persons and up to 50% of nursing home residents have alcohol or drug-related problems. Among older people there is reason for concern about mixing alcohol and drugs. Of people over 65, 83% take some prescription. Over half of all prescriptions for older persons have some sedative. Combining prescriptions with alcohol can be deadly at any age, and especially so among the older age groups. Yet the symptoms may be difficult to recognize. For example, shaky hands and forgetfulness could be normal symptoms of aging -- or a sign of alcohol or prescription abuse. Alcoholism and the misuse of prescription drugs is becoming a life-threatening epidemic in all people but the elderly are particularly susceptible. The bottom line is the same for everyone, if you suspect a problem, call a professional! A professional will provide you with the best course of action. Don’t pretend it’s not happening because it most likely is so make the call – everyone deserves help. In my experience, seniors may be difficult to diagnose but they are far more willing to get help and embrace recovery. The key to saving an addict is to know the difference between helping and enabling – the first saves lives while the second prolongs agony. The longer you take to call a professional, the bigger enabler you become.

in Pakistan, this time attending a Lashkar-e-Taiba training camp, where he received a three-week ideological course on the merits of waging a jihad. Over the course of the next year, he returned to Pakistan four more times for jihadist training. In August 2002, he attended a three-week course on the use of weapons and grenades and other skills. In April 2003, he attended a three-month course on close-combat tactics, use of weapons and grenades, and survival skills. In August 2003, he attended a threeweek course on counter-surveillance. Finally, in December 2003, he attended a three-month course on combat and tactical training. In 2005, he began conspiring with LET operatives in Pakistan to stage a spectacular attack inside India. It was determined that his role in the plot would be to travel to India repeatedly, scoping out targets and videotaping locations and recording GPS coordinates that would guide a team of assassins to the various killing zones. In February 2006, he legally changed his name from Daood Gilani to David Coleman Headley to make it easier to travel back and forth from Pakistan to India without raising red flags at security. He would dress western and, if asked, he would present himself as an American Jew. Before heading to India, he moved his family to Chicago, telling relatives in Philadelphia that he wanted to raise his children Muslim, and there was a much larger Islamic community with better school options in the Windy City. It’s more likely he moved to Chicago to forge an alliance with Tahawwur Hussain Rana, a friend he first met as a cadet at military school back in Pakistan. Rana owned and operated First World, an immigration service for Pakistani nationals. Headley would claim he was setting up an office for First World if anyone asked him about the nature of his business in India. All told, he made five extended trips to Mumbai—in September 2006, February and September 2007, and April and July 2008—returning each time to Pakistan to drop off the videotapes with LET operatives. In November 2008, just weeks before the Mumbai terror attacks were scheduled to commence, Headley was instructed by LET operatives to fly to Denmark and conduct reconnaissance on the Jyllands-Posten newspaper. Headley entered the offices of the paper under the pretense of placing an ad for Rana’s First World Immigration Service. When he returned to Pakistan, he turned over his videotapes to LET operatives. They discussed the scope of the operation. Headley, according to authorities, thought they should only

target those directly responsible, specifically the cartoonist and the editor. One LET operative told him: “All Danes are responsible,” according to court documents. In the wake of all the heat generated by the Mumbai attacks, LET chose to put the Copenhagen attack on the backburner. One of the LET operatives, Ilyas Kashmiri, told Headley that if LET didn’t want to proceed, he knew people in al-Qaeda who did. In May 2009, Headley met with Kashmiri in Waziristan. Kashmiri told him he had spoken with the senior al-Qaeda leadership and that they wanted the Copenhagen operation to happen as soon as possible. He directed him to a European contact who would provide money, weapons and manpower. Kashmiri instructed Headley to tell the European contact that the gunmen should prepare martyrdom videos; this would be a suicide mission. In July 2009, Headley flew to Denmark for final surveillance of the newspaper offices, and established contact with the man who would provide the weaponry and manpower for the attack. He laid low in Chicago for a couple months, reportedly meeting with Rana and keeping him apprised of the plot. They spoke in code, referring to the Copenhagen plot as the Mickey Mouse Project. But it all came to an end Oct. 3, 2009, when Headley was arrested at Chicago’s O’Hare airport, attempting to board a flight bound for Philadelphia. From there, he was to fly to Pakistan. In his luggage, authorities found video footage of the Danish newspaper offices on a memory stick, and the front page of an edition of the paper. That same day, authorities arrested Rana. In exchange for his guilty plea and full cooperation, Headley was spared the death penalty and extradition to India or Denmark. He will not be sentenced until after testifying against his old friend Rana, who has pled not guilty and is scheduled to stand trial in the beginning of November. “I believe Daood’s upbringing damaged him in a way that he never really stood a chance in life,” William Headley says. “His father was unbelievably strict; he lived and died by the Koran. His mother was a libertine, her creed was ‘if it feels good, do it’. And he was never able to reconcile those two worlds, because Primary they can’t be reconciled. There is a reason he was a heroin addict. And there is a reason he became a jihadist. I have to believe that—it’s the only way I can make peace with what happened.” ■

Arts & Culture next step after co-founding the famed Pilobolus Dance Theater, presents Botanica, an exploration of nature. The Philadelphia debut will conjure elaborate, off-kilter visuals with large-scale video projections and huge puppets courtesy of Michael Curry, famous for creating puppets featured in The Lion King and The Magic Flute. Conceived as “an herbal remedy for an ailing world,” the piece is scored with a soundtrack ranging from the classical (Vivaldi’s Four Seasons) to the organic and unexpected (birdsong). Innovation is to be expected from a dance company that pioneered a new business model to stay alive in this economy: By nabbing commercial commissions for clients like BMW and Steve Wynn to finance deliciously extravagant works like Botanica, Pendleton proves that the shifting division between art and commerce is only natural.

hough local harmonizing folk-rockers Good Old War are headlining, the highlight of this show is rising star Audra Mae. The L.A. songstress’ career may have barely passed the starting line (her debut LP The Happiest Lamb was released Tuesday), but her talent is unmistakable. Her sweet soaring vocals hit like a heartpunch with a tender, indomitable presence reminiscent of Neko Case. Her smoldering debut’s blend of cabaret, jazz, folk and gospel traces a path similar to Jolie Holland with more theatricality and grace. The arrangements are generally understated, colored lightly with warm sonic nuance like a striking backdrop on an otherwise bare stage affording her vocals ample room to shock and awe. Chris ParKer

Architecture in Film: The Big Lebowski

• 22

Does learning about architectural styles ever leave you feeling a little … out of your element, Donnie? The Coen Brothers’ 1998 masterstrike The Big Lebowski has been dissected and lionized every which way, from YouTube videos eliminating all but the Fwords from the movie to a more recent translation of the screenplay into Shakespearean verse. But

the Center for Architecture takes a unique look at the film, examining the iconic California buildings, particularly architect John Lautner’s 1963 Sheats/ Goldstein house. As these 1950s and ’60s structures start to enter the realm of historic style, films like Lebowski can impart a whole new appreciation of classic architectural forms. And for bowling, natch.

Botanica MOMIX, Guggenheim Fellow Moses Pendleton’s

Philadelphia is a segregated city; we’re all about the mutually exclusive, either-or mentality. Black vs. white, Democrats vs. Republicans, kids who listen to dance-indie rock vs. kids who abandoned dance-indie rock to become faux metalheads. But we’re all the same, deep down inside. We’ve all got to wake up, drag a comb, slide into our pantaloons one leg at a time and get our dragging asses to jobs that, in all statistical likelihood, we can’t stand. It’s at this point in our days when we face the segregation that dares to speak its name pretty loudly, actually: two-wheelers vs. fourwheelers. If you normally drive a car to work, bike advocates implore you to consider, for this one arbitrary day a year, hopping on a bicycle and test driving the city’s new bike lanes as you pedal to work. Maybe, if you’re one of those super-aggressive four-wheelers, the experience will give you a little perspective on how the unmotorized half lives, or maybe you’ll just burn enough calories for an extra beer. Either way, it’s a win. T.M. For more information, visit bikeleague.org.

Tom Lagana On his new sophomore release Schematic, Maryland-based Tom Lagana evinces taste and lucidity on solid-body and acoustic guitars. More important, he shows an impressive grasp of modern jazz in all its variance. Whether he’s burrowing into his original tunes or seeking new possibilities in Thelonious Monk’s “Evidence” and Bill Evans’ ghostly, seldom-played “Re: Person I Knew,” Lagana does the job with an agile lyricism and an occasionally revved-up tone. His best tracks feature guest tenor saxophonist George Garzone, who can calmly decimate most other horn players—truly one of jazz’s best-kept secrets. Happily, Lagana will have Garzone in Philly this week, along with bassist Tom Baldwin and drummer Todd Harrison. DaviD r. aDler

Kinetic Sculpture Derby “Hipster on bike” might be an exhausted meme, but one can never get tired of the Kensington Kinetic Sculpture Derby—the annual event where green engineering, artistic ingenuity and the determined sweat of men and women run together on the streets of Kensington and Fishtown. The rules are simple, yet so tough: Create a sculpture/vehicle with wheels that’s human-powered (no motors, electricity, pushing, pulling, etc.), make it artsy, don a costume and ride that sucker along an obstacle-filled (hills! sand! mud!) three-mile route around the city to potentially prize-filled glory. Pilots have to be sober, but spectators certainly don’t—and won’t be, as derbies past have demonstrated—as they cheer the elaborate bicycle-based contraptions along to the finish line. “Mummers on wheels” doesn’t even begin to describe how over-the-top the festivities promise to be.

Still mostly the trio blisters and pounds and squalls in a day-glo heavy rock world that is stranger, louder, hairier even, than the remotest corner of Austin.

Liberty Belles Women’s Tackle Football With Eagles mania on life support, maybe it’s time for the fellas to step aside and let the ladies take a stab at it. Fittingly, semi-pro tackle football team the Liberty Belles, part of the Women’s Football Alliance, burst onto the scene in 2009 with guns blazing and an undefeated regular season. Such success can be attributed to the passion of players who can’t afford to be as complacent as some of their NFL counterparts. “We have lawyers, teachers, physical therapists, computer technicians,” says Sheemea Carr, a linebacker and senior program associate for a nonprofit. With several intense 3- to 4-hour practices a week, Carr explains, “We’re just as tough as any guy we might play.” The level of competition has won them converts, sponsors and a 4-0 start to the 2010 season. “A lot of people say women can’t play football,” says Carr. “But come and see us and we’ll change your mind.” Decide for yourself as the Belles take on the Southern Tier Spitfire.

In other words, Turin Brakes like to keep it earnest and sensitive, and lean toward epic ballads that have acoustic strums and yearning vocal harmonies at their core, but reach for the stars with swelling strings, keyboards, electric guitars and more.

Under swirling lights, the husky-voiced former Jealous Girlfriends frontwoman flitted between guitar and keyboards as she and her band confidently recreated the arty, electronic-infused grooves of her recent solo debut, The Magician’s Private Library (produced by TV on the Radio’s Dave Sitek), finding the sweet spot between pop accessibility and melancholy introspection.

Jailhouse Gawk

Can boozing behind bars help calm fears of the pen? By Gerry Christopher Johnson feedback@philadelphiaweekly.com As calm, collected and continent as I strive to be, there are two things mortifying enough to ruin even my most absorbent boxer briefs. The first is a cockroach crawling on my face. The second and most frightening scenario: going to jail. Even though the thought of doing a bid terrifies me, on many Saturday nights I trade the bar for my couch, where I curl up with a carton of Turkey Hill ice cream and a marathon of Locked Up, MSNBC’s series documenting real mass murderers, drug dealers and transsexual prostitutes who fascinate me as much as they freak me out. But how accurately do Locked Up and other prison shows depict the reality of life in the pen? Eastern State Penitentiary presented the perfect opportunity to find out. The event was billed as a celebration of the latest artistic installations at the prisonturned-historic site, but for me it would be a practice run—just in case the Feds finally came after me for downloading Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li, tearing the Do Not Remove tag off my mattress, turning my copy in ridiculously, embarrassingly late or any of my other various antisocial crimes. I couldn’t have picked a more ominous night for wandering around a haunted prison. By 6:45 p.m., darkness had just begun to fall, and so had had rain from the gray clouds hovering over the sprawling 19th-century fortress. “A storm’s a brewin’,” I thought to myself. Judging by the smell of it, so was some food. Starving, I raced inside. I walked past the gift shop and into the cell block, where patrons stood around gabbing with plates and beers in hand. However, there were no servers or food stations to be found. “It’s okay,” I assured myself. “Even if the food has already been eaten, the historical treasures are nourishment enough.” That lie was short-lived, as I soon was at the point of pulling a Jean Valjean on a passing Italian hoagie. Given how that worked out for Jean, I resolved to find some food before I ended up in the clink for 19 years. I was tempted to rummage through the stones, dust and moss inhabiting the interior of each cell for some old cereal or other prison foodstuffs that may have survived from the ’60s. I frantically wandered through the maze of hallways, greeted at every turn by chipped concrete, dreary cells and socializing people. Hungry and hopeless, I wondered if this was desperation borne of being in the place I feared—or just of being fat. But I finally found a reason to rejoice, namely a table stocked with pad thai, hoa-

gies and ziti. “Is this prison food?” I asked the server, who scooped a serving of buffalo shrimp onto my plate. “They wish,” she laughed. Food in my belly, I stumbled across an ceramics installation by Judy Moonelis called “Brain Cell,” based on the stunted neurons of prisoners kept in solitary confinement too long; ESP’s designers philosophized that solitude aided in rehabilitation and, at first, used that method on all their prisoners. According to the inscription, Charles Dickens visited the prison in 1842 and described the harm inflicted by solitary confinement as the “slow and daily tampering with the mysteries of the brain.” Was Dickens describing solitary confinement or getting drunk? I wondered. I ordered some red wine and went about my own slow and daily tampering with my own brain. Another installation, “I Always Wanted to Go to Paris, France” by Alexa Hoyer, consisted of three television sets placed around the prison, each showing clips from prisonthemed movies relating to that area they’d been placed in. I was shocked (shocked!) to find the television in the shower cycling through a homoerotic montage of famous shower scenes, bare flesh and all. Was I in a museum or a bathhouse? However, I didn’t come here to get off. I left the comforts of the shower and went out to the courtyard, where arrows pointed me toward solitary confinement, known as the Klondike. I also ventured into the cell block known as death row, where the most dangerous criminals were kept until they were shipped off to meet their makers. Both were dark, creepy and dirty, just as I’d imagined. Finally, I came across a sign (I later found out it was part of another art installation, which made a lot of sense) that described “dark tourism,” ESP’s bread and butter, which involves visiting places of large-scale death and suffering. “Poverty Tourism, Grief Tourism, Suicide Tourism, Assassination Tourism, and Prison Tourism,” were major subgenres, the sign read, tongue in cheek. Others pointed off down hallways to distant Antietam and Rwanda. “How sick it that I’m enjoying buffalo shrimp as I check out the prison-industrial complex for entertainment value?” I thought. I left, ashamed, but not ashamed enough to not grab another glass of wine on the way out. The next night, another Locked Up marathon came on. I changed the channel. My stint as a dark tourist is over—until HBO starts showing Oz reruns again. n

budget concerns, but also the reductive nature of television,” Strathairn explains. “I think, in general, television has whittled away at the public’s appreciation of spectacle and the sort of theatricality that the Wilma nurtures.” An absurdist mix of shifting tones, the show combines genres and styles including tragedy, comedy, and absurdism and references Shakespeare’s King Lear and Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard. Strathairn acknowledges Leaving is difficult to describe, and that some theatergoers may find it elusive, but doesn’t see how that’s a problem. “The audience may feel like they can’t quite put their finger on it, but I think that’s good. It keeps them on their toes.” n

residence: “A lot of the trappings of his life are leaving him. He’s getting on in years and he has to make a decision whether to work with the new government or be put out to pasture.” Strathairn said he’s excited to reunite with Zizka and immerse himself in another Havel play. “I think it’s pretty special to do a play written by somebody who has been such a significant and influential political figure for many years,” Strathairn says. “It’s wonderful to have this politician who is also a playwright and such a creative thinker. I admire him, and it’s an honor to be involved in something that he created.” Strathairn acknowledged that largescale works like Leaving (which, in the Wilma’s production, features 15 actors, a disembodied voice bossing the players around, a massive set with 36 doors and a King Lear-like tempest) are increasingly rare in contemporary theater. “You’re fighting not only

Noted film and stage actor David Strathairn, best known for his Academy Award-nominated performance as Edward R. Murrow in the movie Good Night, and Good Luck, is back in Philadelphia to head the cast of the Wilma Theater’s production of Leaving, the most recent work by Czech playwright, politician and Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient Václav Havel. One of America’s most highly regarded character actors, Strathairn is associated with roles in the films of director John Sayles such as the baseball classic Eight Men Out and in recent action flicks like The Bourne Ultimatum, and says that his film and stage careers rarely conflict. “I’ve been lucky, and the two don’t really rub up against each other,” says Strathairn in a recent chat with PW, adding that theater was his first love. Strathairn hasn’t been away from Philadelphia for too long, though; he performed in Nathan the Wise at Malvern’s People’s Light & Theatre Company earlier this season. He's no stranger to the Wilma’s stage, either; Strathairn can count Leaving as his fourth production with the Wilma’s co-artistic director Jiri Zizka, and his second time performing the work of Havel under Zizka’s direction (the first being a 1989 off-Broadway staging of Temptation). Leaving, which premiered in 2007 in Prague, was Václav Havel’s return to writing after a nearly two-decade absence. Those years of silence make sense if you know what was taking up the man’s time, though: Havel, a leader during Czechoslovakia’s Velvet Revolution in 1989, was then chosen as what would turn out to be the last president of Czechoslovakia after the nonviolent overthrow of the nation’s communist government. After stepping down during the separation of the Slovaks and Czechs in 1993, Havel was elected president of the Czech Republic and remained in the post for the next decade. Unsurprisingly, politics and their aftermath figure heavily in Leaving, which is having its English-language U.S. premiere at the Wilma. Vilém Rieger (Strathairn), the former chancellor of an unnamed nation, is struggling to cope with his new status as a private citizen. Strathairn described Rieger as being “a bit resistant” to his new life away from the luxurious villa that serves as the chancellor’s

A bold, some might say, rash statement, but one that remains closed to argument. And why does it sound so good, even now? A lot comes down to the circumstances under which it was recorded. Back in ’71, the Stones f led to the South of France to escape the British taxman. They decided to cut an album and, finding nowhere suitable to record, decamped en masse to Keith Richards’ domicile of Answer: they’re all utterly, unequivocally united in choice, Nellecote, a sumptuous villa on the Cote D’Azur, their love for the Stones’ sprawling masterpiece, Exile and a former Gestapo headquarters. Musicians, friends, on Main Street (remastered and re-released this week, socialites, international jetsetters and heavy-duty Corpop pickers!), and quite rightly so. Because, put simply, sican dope dealers came and went, and what started out Exile remains one of the classics that truly deserves all as recording sessions in Richards’ basement became, the hype and more, a record that transcends it’s inf luin effect, the biggest house party of his life. It was F. ences, and sounds even better now than it did 38 long Scott Fitzgerald’s The Beautiful and Damned , but with obscene amounts of hard drugs. years ago. It is, without a doubt, the single most soulful Hangers-on aside, these were not the most ideal of and downright funky release the Stones ever produced recording conditions—the band hunkered down in a and is therefore one of the greatest slices of vinyl ever dank, sweaty basement for all-night sessions that were laid down. Period. prone to power cuts and instruments detuning due to the oppressive humidity. They rarely saw daylight. You can hear it on the record as vocal tracks bleed into one another, the mix often muddy, Jagger frequently sounding as if he’s singing with a mouthful of molasses. And yet, out of chaos came a certain raffish, ragged glory, a triumphant last hurrah, before ennui, cynicism and nasty habits got the better of the band. Above all, Exile remains the high-water mark of the Stones’ love affair with America. Their friend Gram Parsons (who was a house guest during this period and whose inf luence is all over the record), frequently talked of creating “Cosmic American Music,” the irony being that his dissolute English buddies beat him to it. While the outside world turned to Glam and Prog Rock, the Stones retreated inward, looking toward a romanticized America—one of down-home juke joints, late-night dives, fetid swamps and dusty highways (it’s no mistake they hired The Americans photographer Robert Frank to design the album’s cover). It’s their love letter to Chicago’s South Side, to the wrong side of the Memphis tracks, to New Orleans, Nashville and Detroit, too. Throughout—from the spooked speaking-in-tongues intensity of “Just Wanna See His Face,” to the country soul of “Sweet Virginia,” from the lugubrious grooves of “Casino Boogie,” (complete with one of the filthiest, most shit-kicking Texan horn sections ever)—it’s the sound of a band playing out of their skins, playing with a complete and utter abandonment they would never recapture again. It’s the sound of a party that never ends, it’s soul food for the ears. And through its inward rejection of the outside world, it’s unrepentant us-against-the-world feel, it remains that rare thing—a truly timeless record that only gets better with age. And it is out now on Universal. It comes in three different versions: 1. The basic, no frills remastered version (which is pretty much all you need). 2. The “deluxe” version (featuring 10 extra unreleased outtakes—most with newly added vocals—all great, but hardly essential). 3. The “super deluxe” version which is made with gold and platinum and rubies, costs roughly the equivalent of a second mortgage, and is obviously aimed at the borderline psychotically-obsessed Stones fan with more money than sense. ■ ALEX FINE

Greg Laswell alifornia C native Greg Laswell’s 2009 appropriately-titled EP of cover tunes, Covers, showcased the wide variety of influences that color his music: Echo & the Bunnymen, Kate Bush, Morphine, Mazzy Star and Kristin Hersh, to name a few. He’s also been known to pull out a pretty solid version of Cyndi Lauper’s “Girls Just Want To Have Fun” at live shows with a straight face, turning what could be irony overkill into an earnest homage to an ‘80s pop icon. On new album Take A Bow—recorded in relative seclusion in an Arizona cabin—Laswell brings his own tunes to the fore, and they dazzle. Lead single “Take Everything” is packed full of Laswell’s signature traits—it’s wistful, yearning, bittersweet and reflective—and the rest of the album follows suit.

the album took a year to stitch together. In Bon Iver-esque fashion, the songs were conceived and the basic tracks recorded in a remote house in the Poconos in snowy January 2009. “It was like Survivorman,” Goodwin laughs. “It was just us up there— the only time we would leave the house was to get groceries, and even that was pretty treacherous. After a month, we were all ready to go home.” The band finished up the album this past winter in the nearly-as-deserted Avalon, N.J., with the help of longtime friend and musical collaborator Anthony Green of Philly post-hardcore heroes Circa Survive. Good Old War actually got its start as Green’s backing band on his 2008 solo LP

Avalon; this after Goodwin and Arnold’s old emo-leaning band Days Away—which they were in for much of the last decade— dissolved in late 2007. Schwartz, who’d previously played in Unlikely Cowboy, was recruited, and the band’s adoption of an acoustic-based approach was immediate. “We all love folk music,” says Goodwin, “and our old bands were so loud and rockin’, it was like, we all couldn’t really imagine doing that our whole entire lives. You know, bein’ 40 and playing super loud music.” Along with the change in sound came a change in attitude, one that’s certainly helped build the band’s current momentum. “For the first couple years I was making music, I would avoid any kind of interactions with people,” Goodwin admits. “I’d get in my shell—hide in the van playing video games. The whole thing made me feel awkward. But after a while, I realized that that interaction is what really means the most. That connection with people takes everything to a whole different level where people are excited and happy about what you’re doing, and you feed off of that and want to make great music for them. It’s totally fulfilling. That was definitely missing for a long time in my life, and now that I have it I realize how great it is.” “Now we have the time for everybody,” he laughs. “As much as we possibly can.” (Michael Alan Goldberg)

About 25 minutes into my phone conversation with Keith Goodwin, singer/guitarist of the Philly indie-folk trio Good Old War, a female voice breaks into the line. It’s the band’s publicist, who facilitated the call. “You guys’ll need to wrap this up in about five minutes,” she says, and then she’s gone. “Wow,” marvels Goodwin, “this is the first time ever that I’ve done an interview that had a time limit.” “That’s when you know you’re hittin’ the big time!” I offer. Goodwin laughs, but it’s true—less than three years into their existence, Good Old War seems poised for a breakthrough on a national level. Thanks to more than a hundred shows around the U.S. in the last year, the fan base beyond Philadelphia is growing significantly. And a terrific self-titled album—the band’s second, following 2008’s Only Way To Be Alone, due next month on Los Angeles indie Sargent House Records— has been generating enough advance buzz to keep GOW’s new management and publicity teams busy fielding a flurry of interview requests. The swelling interest is definitely warranted. With tunes sonically familiar but not quite derivative, Goodwin, drummer/multiinstrumentalist Tim Arnold and guitarist/ vocalist Dan Schwartz push their acoustic strums, accordion hum, and laid-back percussion in directions warm and inviting more often than bittersweet. The songwriting is sharp and sophisticated. But the main draw is the accomplished, absolutely

Gaucho Dinner Right Here

At Hoof + Fin, the Argentine cowboy comes to Society Hill. By Adam Erace aerace@philadelphiaweekly.com lighthouses painted on plates that hang on the walls. That house wasn’t much, but for my first 14 summers, it was my favorite place on earth. And at 35 seats set under the old-timey hazel glow of Edison bulbs, Hoof + Fin isn’t much, either, but after a glorious gaucho cookout in these stripped-down, memory-tugging digs, it has earned a similar distinction. Co-owner Deanna Ebner and chef Carlos Barroz have big shoes to fill at this address, but the food is so soulful, so flavor-charged, so delicately wrought one minute, so rustic and brawny the next, you’ll enter the joint missing the culinary riddles once served here and depart wondering, “Gayle who?” There’s no guessing at Hoof + Fin. Empanadas are empanadas, flaky and filled with sweet corn and Manchego cheese. Ceviche is ceviche, fluke or tuna bejeweled with summery watermelon. And beef is most certainly beef. In Argentina, cow is king, and Barroz, a native of Córdoba, knows how to cook one inside (grilled sweetbreads with mint!) and out. His grilled, chimichurri-marinated skirt steak is an intensely beefy, smoky experience, 10 ounces of rare grass-fed ribbons resonating with garlic and herbs and tradition. Hoof + Fin’s menu is divided into raw starters, apps and salads; pasta; and composed mains and mix-’n’-match grilled meat and fish with sides like simple grilled asparagus and “Provencal” fries tossed with raw garlic and fresh parsley. And that’s the scaled-down spring version of the opening rambler. Order a bit from each section. The fair prices allow it. Or visit on Monday nights, when $39 buys a course from each category and dessert, or on Wednesdays for a traditional asado feast set to the tunes (hopefully soon) of a strolling Argentine accordion player. Ebner strolls the front of the house, Hoof + Fin: Where men are men and empanadas are empanadas. weaving through buddy-buddy waiters in

For many, many summers, my grandparents had a beach house in Margate. It’s gone now, but I remember the little white rancher, how it hugged the lawn like a bunker, the burgundy shutters we eventually painted navy. I remember only three bedrooms, but as many as a dozen family members could be in residence over the weekends in July and August. If my grandmom had opened a restaurant there, it would look like Hoof + Fin, the new Argentine grill in the old Gayle space: simple wood tables, framed seascapes in stormy blues and salty grays, lobsters and

vintage jeans and Buffalo plaid. She and her Buenos Aires-born husband, Lucas Manteca, chef of the Ebbitt Room in Cape May’s tony Virginia Hotel, have taken an apartment a few blocks from Hoof + Fin and are splitting their time between here and the Shore. So is Barroz, also the chef at Ebner’s and Manteca’s inspired seafood shack Quahog’s in Stone Harbor. Perhaps you ate there one summer, feasting on pacu rubs and cinnamon-scented clam chowder? Then you know Barroz can cook fish as gamely as he cooks meat. Case in point: that tuna ceviche, a springtime aria of sour (lime and yuzu juices), salty (soy sauce), spicy (Sriracha, Cherry Belle radish) and sweet (melon). Barroz does right by dough, too, whether in the giant empanada or the best, most surprising pizza I’ve had all year. Par for the Argentine course, it’s grilled, then topped with a blend of sour cream and cream cheese and layered with petals of spicy sopressata, arugula and red onion. It’s outstanding, as fitting a tribute to Argentina’s Italian immigrant population as the rustic house-made pappardelle tossed in a macho puttanesca you wouldn’t want to meet in a dark alley at night. Shreds of grilled and Malbec-braised costilla (short rib) duke it out with briny capers and cracked olives in the inky sauce, punched up with fresh oregano. The risotto stands in sharp contrast, angelically light with asparagus tips, cherry tomatoes, fava beans and an anointment of truffle oil that proves the much-maligned condiment can be used for good as well as evil. Panqueques, delicate crepes rolled around berries enrobed in tangy dulce de leche, are the way to end a meal I’m dying to repeat. Laid-back, honest service. Casual, convivial atmosphere. Music up. Prices down. And the kind of food I like to eat. Is Hoof + Fin the best new restaurant of 2010? I don’t know, but it’s definitely mine. My grandmom would agree. n

SIX PACK

Six Movies With Celebrities Materializing as Ghosts or Imaginary Friends By Matt Prigge mprigge@philadelphiaweekly.com

Adoption drama begins well, but devolves into a soapy mess. By Sean Burns sburns@philadelphiaweekly.com So let’s say your dad wins the Nobel Prize for literature. How do you follow that act? It’s a long shadow, stuff like Love in the Time of Cholera and One Hundred Years of Solitude. Rodrigo Garcia, son of Ga-

you wonder if the message of the movie is that the process of adoption turns women into vicious hags. But that can’t be right, can it? A better movie would have been content to finally allow these two in a room together, then leave us watching these bitter creatures sort out their resentments. Alas, Garcia has something more melodramatic in mind. There’s a third story strand with Kerry Washington as a Type-A suburban wife, desperate to have a child but unable to do so. Thus, she must endure a rigorous cross-examination from Half Nelson’s Shareeka Epps, as a pregnant teen who has some very specific ideas about how her baby should be raised. I’m not sure where this particular storyline is supposed to fit in, except for enabling Garcia’s Crash-y array of coincidences to fall into lockstep in the final, disastrous reels. Behavior gets replaced by contrivance, and both Bening’s and Watts’ characters are defanged and made cuddly by the presence of a child. Garcia has done marginally well for himself over the years by writing sharp, idiosyncratic women’s roles, yet here he

falls for that age-old trap of letting those women surrender their identities and become dull, suburban mommies. By the time a blind teenage girl showed up to offer the moral of the story, I was ready to vomit. Still, there’s one great scene, in which Watts seduces Jackson and basically bullies him into her bed. The explicit sexuality is so frank as to be jarring—as is her casual cruelty—whispering orders and forcing him to sit still so she can have her way. As the scene revs up, we can see her flipping the power dynamic of their relationship. By the time it’s over, he’s been completely emasculated, and he’ll never be her boss again. She’s in charge now. Mother and Child could have done with less soap opera and more commanding scenes like that one. n

briel Garcia Marquez, found his own path, carving out a tiny, highly regarded niche by specializing in upscale chick-lit, art-house melodramas that, while they don’t add up to much, still offer showy roles for brilliant, underused actresses and some gorgeous lighting. Garcia scored accolades for his criminally little-seen Things You Can Tell Just By Looking at Her and Nine Lives, pictures that took women’s problems seriously while at the same time judiciously toning down the more absurd aspects of the glossy, moneyed milieu in which he works. Alas, his new film Mother and Child is foolish and ridiculous; it’s a shame, as it starts out so very promisingly. Grade: CThe great, little-seen Annette Bening stars as Karen, a high-strung, deeply Director: Rodrigo Garcia unpleasant woman still reeling over the fact Starring: Annette Bening, Naomi Watts that she got knocked up and gave away her Running time: 125 minutes child at the tender age of 14. The following 37 years have found Karen tending to her sickly mother (Eillen Atkins) and filling notebook after notebook with never-sent letters to that lost, long-adopted daughter. It might be tough to believe that after almost four decades this lady’s pain is still so raw, but Bening makes her character’s deeply private aching palpable, turning her bullying, crass behavior into a sort of sad-sack overcompensation. On a separate, parallel story track, Naomi Watts plays Elizabeth, Bening’s abandoned daughter, who has grown up into an absolute shark. Irrevocably wounded by being left up for adoption as a tot, she’s now a cut-throat careerist and a vicious man-eater. Watts’ no-bullshit corporate lawyer wastes no time bedding and humiliating her new alpha-male boss (Samuel L. Jackson, giving a genuine performance and reminding you that he can act, as he does every couple years or so) while casually destroying the marriage of her next-door neighbors just because she can. Watts is mean and prickly. Bening is no prize, either. In fact, Two faces, or a messed-up candlestick: The pairing of Samuel L. Jackson (left) and Naomi Watts is a high long stretches of Mother make point in an otherwise mushy melodrama.

Blackbeard’s Ghost (1968): In real life, famous people are saviors, lending their time, money and hot selves to calamities in Haiti, Darfur and New Orleans. In movies, their ambitions are more modest. Either as a ghost or imaginary friend, a celebrity will materialize to help with your banal relationship, vocational or monster problem. But if the person is Blackbeard and the studio is Disney, the not-so-vicious-after-all pirate (Peter Ustinov,), will mostly just inconvenience the bumbling track coach (Dean Jones) who unwittingly conjures him. Play It Again, Sam (1971): Who does a worse Humphrey Bogart: Woody Allen, or Jerry Lacey, the actor playing Humphrey Bogart? Woody Allen’s playturned-film finds a neurotic dude receiving sometimes sage, sometimes horrifyingly antiquated romantic advice from an imaginary Bogie. His most prophetic suggestion: Just bang Diane Keaton. True Romance (1993): Quentin Tarantino favors Elvis over the Beatles, which is why this early screenplay features a mysterious figure (Val Kilmer) with a leopard-skin jacket, oversized glasses and Southern drawl telling Christian Slater to kill Gary Oldman. The Sandlot (1993): Babe Ruth materializes to tell a boy to risk being eaten by a monster to retrieve a ball signed by Ruth himself. Good advice, you fat fuck. Touch of Pink (2004): How exactly haven’t more people ripped off Sam’s dead-celebrity-as-romantic-coach gimmick? C’mon, idea-starved screenwriters. Here, a gay Muslim (Jimi Mistry) is coached on how to come out to his fundamentalist parents by that bastion of Islamic wisdom, Cary Grant (Kyle McLaughlin!). Looking for Eric (2009): The microgenre wouldn’t be complete without a contribution from British social realist Ken Loach, would it? Loach tells of a down-on-his-luck postal worker getting imaginary advice from ex-footballer (and definite non-actor) Eric Contana. Alas, Loach can only keep the realism low for so long. Imagine Play It Again, Sam, only with a gun-toting psychopath and lots and lots of screaming. n

No one films hangout sessions like Ken Loach. Don’t let the English director’s killjoy social realism throw you: More than half his combined oeuvre—and almost all of The Navigators and Sweet Sixteen—is dedicated to working-class lugs shooting the shit, getting into mischief and enjoying each other’s company. So when Looking For Eric, Loach’s 23rd feature in five decades, is described as a “break,” it’s worth asking: From what? All-out serious films, like his Palme d’Or-nabbing IRA saga The Wind That Shakes the Barley, are oddities on a serious-but-not-that-serious resume. What’s throwing people off, apparently, is the high-concept premise. Steve Evets plays Eric, a postal worker in turmoil. His exwife (Stephanie Bishop) is tenuously back in his life and his son is running with the wrong crowd. Initial Time Despondent, he wills into semiexistence the man on the posters covering his bedroom walls: retired footballer Eric Contana. Through a thick French accent and complete lack of screen presence, the famously philosophical former Manchester U forward offers sage advice to the other Eric, building his self-esteem and playing sounding board to his rhapsodies on football. So far, so cute. But that gun Eric’s son has hiding under the floor boards? It belongs to a local psychopath, and when he comes calling, this so-called trifle threatens to turn as serious as any of the director’s films. Most never thought they’d see a Play It Again, Sam, in which people cry and beg for their lives. This mixture of tones isn’t atypical in a Loach film; many could be described as genuinely enjoyable with (often unnecessarily) downer endings. Even with the goofy plot conceit, the main reason Eric throws you off is because one minute the two Erics are mucking about in a field, the next thugs are shoving a pistol in our poor schlub hero’s face. Eric's exploration of the fissure between fantasy and kitchen-sink realism is clumsy, but most is forgiven by the end. The climax, featuring improbable retribution carried out by dozens of middle-aged football fans in Eric Contana masks, makes the fantastical, at long last, fun.

Casino Jack and the United States of Money BReview by Matt Prigge

Opens Fri., May 21

Were he still in the House, notorious deregulator Tom DeLay would surely have argued against my new proposal: the aggressive regulation of soundtrack licensing for documentaries. Thank Michael Moore for the proliferation of insufferably cutesy music cues in nonfiction cinema—think “Leaving on a Jet Plane” as the bin Ladens flee America in Fahrenheit 9/11. Documentarian Alex Gibney—of Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room, the forthcoming Eliot Spitzer exposé and this dissection of Beltway lobbyist-cum-con man Jack Abramoff—is better at research, argument and retaining his composure than Moore. But he’s, remarkably, even worse at music. “Watching the Detectives” plays as investigators dig into Abramoff’s past. “Enter Sandman” blasts as colleagues head to Afghanistan to hang with the mujahideen. “Burning Down the House” plays for Newt Gingrich. Abramoff’s story, a dense thicket of corruption, is tailor-made for black comedy. But Gibney mostly falls back on mere sarcasm, hoping that thuddingly literal songs, jokey film clips and dumb graphics will atone for the lack of incisive, sharp satire. Gibney could have just told the story straight and come out with a bleakly hilarious film. As Casino Jack has it, Abramoff, who did not participate in the film for obvious reasons, is a product of his time and place. A college Republican in the lead-up to the Reagan administration, he ran with the wrong kids (Ralph Reed and Grover Norquist) who shared a worldview both fanatically antiSoviet and hilariously macho. (The best revelation: Abramoff produced and co-wrote the Dolph Lundgren Rambo ripoff Red Scorpion.) What happens is unchecked megacapitalism taken to absurdist extremes, with Abramoff so reckless he all but begs for prison. Did he really use all-expense-paid luxury hotels to convince Republicans to overlook slave labor in the Mariana Islands? Did he really bilk Indian casinos then turn around and campaign for their closing? And was he seriously that forthright about his misdeeds in profane, easily obtained e-mails? Each offense and loophole-jump is ballsier and more outrageous than the last, and as Abramoff and company push and push and push their

luck, Casino Jack becomes almost exhilarating, harnessing the thrill of hanging with the bad guys as they get away with murder. The material’s so strong not even Moore—or Gibney—could muck it up too badly.

Princess Kaiulani CReview by Matt Prigge

Opens Fri., May 21

What is film acting? Is it simply reading lines? Or is it more to do with that mystical thing called “screen presence?” An actor often can get away with being so-so or even terrible with dialogue if he or she is likeable and photogenic, but how many actors can you name who are great at dialogue but have no screen presence? Q’orianka Kilcher (cousin to Jewel) falls into that former category. In Terrence Malick’s The New World, she delivered a revelatory Pocahontas, which it seems now was in large part because her performance was almost completely visual. The camera recorded her body movement and subtle facial reactions. Her dialogue, usually in unsubtitled Algonquin, was minimal. That she was an actress of limited talents didn’t matter at the time. Now, the producers of Princess Kaiulani have performed an almost cruel deed: They’ve made it glaringly obvious she’s an actress of limited talents. Kaiulani gives Kilcher a proper, lots-of-dialogue role as the titular last princess of Hawaii. In the years before annexation, Kaiulani splits time between home and the U.K. (daddy was a Scot), falling for a charming Brit (Shaun Evans), but ultimately devoted to being the champion of her people. Kaiulani is a classically dull, inert historical pageant with all the trimmings: tone-deaf expository dialogue, declaratory acting, insistent scoring, studied crane shots, hopelessly simplified history, one-note characterizations and interesting facial hair. On the plus side, it’s very, very short. Without Terrence Malick to mold her performance, Kilcher is lost. She delivers her unreadable lines with the polish of a junior-high student wrestling with Arthur Miller. She’s fine as ever when the camera’s just observing her, but when she’s asked to express complicated emotions, she overdoes it. She’s trying, and by trying, she fails. Malick understood that Kilcher has a natural screen presence. The makers of Princess Kaiulani are expecting someone like Emily Blunt. The two are not the same. n

ne of my best friends at college is gay. I’m a straight female and I’m in a committed relationship with my own boyfriend. My friend’s parents are incredibly conservative. His older brother is also gay—and when he came out, his parents immediately cut off all funding for college and excommunicated him from the family, so my friend is understandably terrified. When his parents come into town to visit, I am sometimes asked to tag along on “dates” with him to “meet the parents.” It’s a free meal, so it’s mostly cool with me, but it feels a little dirty to lie so blatantly to his mom and dad. Moreover, my friend is coming to my house in California this summer. I had said I would love for him to come visit—as a friend. But his parents think he’s going to be staying with his girlfriend, and they’re thinking of tagging along so they can finally meet their future in-laws, i.e., MY PARENTS. I feel like this is getting way out of hand, and I’m not sure what to do. My friend is also feeling more and more cornered. How far should we take this act? I SHould WIN AN oSCAR

need your help. I have entered into a period of my life where I am devoting all my mental resources toward my academics—grad school—and am not interested in dating. Thus, I bought a Real doll so that I may enjoy fantastic masturbation during this loveless period of my life. unfortunately, while my parents were visiting, my mom discovered it and she reacted very, very badly. You see, my dear mother is a feminist. She is very upset by the doll and believes that it is an indication that I have lost all respect for women. I honestly do not feel this is true at all. I view myself as a feminist, and I realize this society sexually objectifies women. But I also believe that I can masturbate with a rubber woman and have wild fantasies and then come back to reality and have respect for everyone— men, women, others. My mother, however, is extremely upset, and we haven’t been able to have a civil conversation since. I am hoping you can possibly give me some perspective on this matter. dollEd uP

My perspective: Your masturbatory routines— including your masturbatory aids/aides—are none of your mother’s fucking business. And if your mother wants to be shocked by something, DU, it ought to be that her sonthe-grad-student had $5K to plunk down on a sex toy. Your options at this stage are pretty limited. You can apologize to your mother and tell her what she wants to hear (“You’re right, Mom, what was I thinking? I’m making an appointment with a therapist now, Mom. I’m donating my Real Doll to sex-starved grad students in Africa … ”). Or you can tell your mother to fuck off and butt out (“It’s my dick, Mom, and I’ll stick it in whatever I want. You remember that ‘my body, my choice’ stuff, right?”). That said, DU, your claim that you bought a Real Doll so you could “enjoy fantastic masturbation during this loveless period of my life” doesn’t quite pass the smell-of-dayold-spunk-moldering-in-the-lifeless-orificeof-a-silicone-dummy test. Most guys manage to tough out their loveless periods with the help of the porn industry, their own right hand, and real, live sex workers. And most guys who opt for insanely expensive, life-size, hard-to-hide sex dolls do have issues with women—most are plagued by feelings of inadequacy, not superiority—so you may want to entertain the possibility that your mother might be right. But even if you do have issues with women—and that’s still an if—they’re still none of your mother’s fucking business. n

It’s good to have a sense of humor about yourself, LAD, whether you’re gay or straight or bi or whatever. Shrug off your lesbian friend’s comments if they’re not funny, laugh along with

her if they are. As for your preference for your straight friends: There are a lot more openly straight kids in your life than there are openly gay kids. That means you’re drawing your straight friends from a much larger pool and you’re able to be more selective about the straight people you hang out with. Right now, you can’t afford to be as selective when it comes to gay friends because (1) most gay kids your age aren’t out and (2) gays and lesbians are a tiny percentage of the population and you won’t meet lots of us until you get to one of those places where gays and lesbians clump up, i.e., large universities and big cities. Then you’ll be able to forge friendships with gays and lesbians whom you have something in common with besides your sexuality. In the meantime, LAD, don’t write off all gays and lesbians everywhere as potential friends just because the few you had to choose from as a teenager weren’t among your best friends.

am a gay male teenager. I have not yet come out to my parents (I plan to soon), but my friends know. I’m curious why I relate more easily to my straight friends and am increasingly uncomfortable with my gay friends. Specifically, I have a lesbian friend who often makes jokes about “how gay I am.” When she makes these statements, I am often offended. In your opinion, are statements like that offensive (even considering the source)? or am I still uncomfortable with myself? I am not shy, but I will admit that extreme campiness makes me uncomfortable. Your opinion on this matter would mean a lot to me. loST ANd dISIlluSIoNEd

When you feel bad about lying, ISWAO, remind yourself that you’re doing a good deed—you’re doing God’s work—every time you pass yourself off as this boy’s girlfriend. Yes, you’re lying to his mean-spirited, emotionally abusive parents, two complete shits who deserve so much worse than simply being misled. When they excommunicated their older son after he came out, they essentially put their younger son, your friend, on notice: The consequences of telling the truth would be severe. So he lies to them because—for the time being—he must. You should ask him to do three things to secure your continued cooperation in this deception. First, he has to make a solemn promise that he will come out to his parents the day after he graduates. Second, he has to reach out to his excommunicated brother and, if his brother can be trusted to keep his secret, he has to come out to his brother. Third, he has to break up with you at the end of the school year. The course of true love never did run smooth, as someone or other once said, so a painfully messy June breakup with his college girlfriend— right before summer break!—not only makes your friend’s Potemkin heterosexuality that much more credible, it also gets you off the hook for this ill-advised summer visit. Then when September rolls around, ISWAO, you two crazy kids get back together. Repeat as necessary, i.e., be “on again” every once in a while when his parents are in town, be “off again” when your parents are in town, over summer breaks, holidays, etc. And help him look around for his next girlfriend—perhaps a lesbian student with similarly batshit parents—because he can’t expect you to be his beard for your entire college career.

“The Condo Shop has redefined client service beyond the status quo, through the philosophy that good client service is as individual as the clients themselves” The Condo Shop, was established to capitalize on the rapidly growing and highly versatile marketplace for In-House Sales and Marketing of Pre-Construction Condominiums. The current condo market has been fueled by a period of historically low interest rates, coupled with an aging population of baby boomers, who are migrating to a variety of regions for reasons that vary from safety, tax advantages and superior climates. Additionally, international buyers view condos as a good investment and as a hedge against currency and political risks. Lastly, condo supply and demand is driven by the desire of investors to own real estate as an asset class in diversified investment portfolios. Whether you are a first time home buyer or an experienced real estate investor, take advantage of the strength, power and expertise of “One-Stop Shopping” with The Condo Shop LLC. As leaders in marketing condominiums, we have after many years opened our doors to the general public, as demand for condos has surpassed all levels on an international scale. Your Condo Shop representative has at his or her disposal: a vast marketing support, technological tools and programs, real estate/property management services, training and legal counsel to help service you.
