Parents want what’s best for our kids. But the Philadelphia School Reform Commission (SRC) is planning on drastic budget cuts that will lay off thousands of public school teachers and slash essential programs.

The consequences of proposed budget cuts include: • larger class sizes • compromised school safety and classroom discipline • fewer programs and services • worse learning conditions for our children We need new priorities that put children first.

Parents and teachers are fighting for Philadelphia’s schools. Call the SRC at 215/400-4010. Tell them to work in good faith with our teachers and invest in our classrooms.

Let’s stand united for our children, for our teachers and for public education.

A vacant school in Hunting Park becomes a danger to the hood.

By Michael Alan Goldberg mgoldberg@philadelphiaweekly.com

michael alan goldberg

Ground zero: Formerly Roberto Clemente Middle School, this 110-year-old building in Hunting Park has been pillaged by scrappers. School district officials confirm it also contains asbestos.

and assaults that plague this crime-scarred part of North Philly take precedence over going after scrappers, although a handful have been arrested this year for burglary or criminal trespassing. “Theft is probably middle of the pack in terms of priority around here,” says one PPD officer.

Calls to the city’s Air Management Services—which oversees the Asbestos Control Unit—were rerouted to the Department of Public Health, which did not return messages seeking comment.

Still, there’s a glimmer of hope: Childs says the school district just got the go-ahead from the Philadelphia School Reform Commission to sell the building as part of its new Adaptive Sale and Reuse policy for excess properties. “This building will be one of the first group of buildings that will follow this policy as we dispose of them,” says Childs, who expects that the process to find a buyer will begin this summer. For her neighbors’ sake, Smith says, “I hope somebody buys it and either fixes it up or tears it down. It can’t just keep sitting there, getting worse.”

Meanwhile, Paul is already thinking about moving on—he says it’s getting too dangerous, especially with the brutal fights that have started to break out between rival scrappers inside the building. “The ones who’ve been here a while, they don’t like new people like me who just show up,” he says, picking through his cigarette cup for the longest butt. “I’ll just go somewhere else.” n

with half-smoked cigarette butts that he scavenged from the bus stop nearby, Paul explains how he goes up to the roof of the building sometimes to shoot dope or to sleep because “no one really messes with you up there—the cops ain’t goin’ up there.” He says he came here a couple weeks ago from Kensington—where he was squatting in an abandoned house— because he heard the building was a scrapper’s paradise. A couple hours’ work inside, he explains, can yield a couple hundred bucks’ worth of metal—just haul it out, dump it in your shopping cart and push it a few blocks to the scrap yard at Second and Erie for some quick cash.

Enough for a steady fix. “[The scrap is] just sittin’ right in there,” says Paul, who, despite the warm weather, is wearing several layers of dirty clothes. “Why not take it? It ain’t hurtin’ nobody.”

That’s not what the locals think. Nearby residents and business owners estimate that scrappers descended on the Clemente building like vultures to a carcass about eight months ago, and since then have accelerated the deterioration of the already dilapidated structure to the point where it’s a daily threat to people’s safety and health. “There’s brick and concrete and broken glass falling off of there all the time,” says Abigail Smith, 38, who’s sitting on the stoop of her

“[Scrappers are] poisoning the air around here. One time the guy told me, ‘Don’t worry—you won’t get sick for 20 or 30 years.’”

P H I L A D E L P H I A W E E K LY June 22 – 28, 2011

From deep within the belly of this beast of a building—a hulking, decrepit six-story structure that takes up most of a ragged city block in Hunting Park—the sounds of industry ring out on a recent afternoon: the clanging of hammers on metal and pipes against concrete, ripping noises and distant thuds.

It’s not a construction crew inside but a small, brazen army of scrappers (as many as two dozen, according to some local residents) illegally harvesting copper, aluminum and steel from the 110-year-old building on North Fifth Street between Pike and Luzerne streets. It was once the Apex Hosiery factory, then the Roberto Clemente Middle School. Now it looms over the block, vacant and wrecked, and grows more dangerous by the day—a grim reminder that Philly’s epidemic of vacant lots and abandoned buildings is about more than just ugly aesthetics.

“Paul” is one of the scrappers, although he doesn’t admit it at first. “This is my home right now,” he says, slapping a palm against one of Clemente’s crumbling red brick walls.

A skinny white guy who stands out in this predominantly Latino neighborhood, Paul claims he’s 39, though he looks at least 10 years older.

up and secure the property.” But Lisojo says the patrols amount to little more than a conspicuous school district vehicle that parks alongside the building for a few minutes while scrappers—who come and go with little fear—duck out of sight before getting right back to work. And there’s little evidence of cleanup or other security efforts.

Heaps of trash are everywhere both inside and outside the building. Ground floor windows remain wide open. There are gaping holes in the fence. And, almost comically, there’s a shiny new padlock on one rusty chain wrapped around a gate while just yards away, the front door to the building is unlocked and propped halfway open.

Police acknowledge that the shootings

rowhome on the 3900 block of North Fifth along with her two teenage kids, staring up at the building. “I can’t believe nobody’s been killed yet,” she says. “It’s gonna happen, it’s just a matter of time.”

“My windshield got busted out by a piece of concrete last week,” says her next-door neighbor, Jeff, who points out that scrappers have made off with many of the building’s aluminum windows, leaving gaping holes so that even a moderate gust of wind dislodges pieces of pipe, fiberglass insulation, ceiling tiles and light fixtures that regularly tumble onto the street. So does all kinds of trash from squatters and junkies like Paul who occupy the building. Hypodermic needles litter the sidewalk. Smith says she sees crackheads smoking and hookers turning tricks with their johns on the ground floor (where ratty mattresses lay amidst the filth and rubble) virtually every day. She says scrappers work around the clock—throughout the night, the clanging of their hammers emanating from the darkness. “Even if I had to save my child I wouldn’t go in there,” says Smith, who’s planning to move by the end of the month because of the danger.

Just as dangerous is the asbestos.

Elizabeth Childs, deputy of strategic communications for the School District of Philadelphia (which purchased the building in 1967 and is still responsible for its maintenance) confirms that the structure contains the hazardous material. Undisturbed asbestos isn’t necessarily a health concern, but once it’s broken apart by, say, a motley demolition crew, asbestos fibers and particles can, according to the U.S. Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, “remain suspended in the air for a long time and be carried long distances by wind.” Asbestos exposure is linked to lung cancer, mesothelioma and other potentially fatal diseases.

The presence of asbestos comes as no surprise to 49-year-old Jose Lisojo, owner of JL Custom Shop on Rising Sun Avenue, which faces the back of the Clemente building. Standing outside his garage, Lisojo and his friend Ray—a carpenter who says he’s certified to remove asbestos—point to pipe wrappings inside the building that they’re certain contain asbestos. Both mention the white dust that comes out of the property every day. “[Scrappers are] poisoning the air around here,” Lisojo complains. He says he’s called the city’s 311 hotline repeatedly to report asbestos contamination, but claims no one takes him seriously. “One time the guy told me, ‘Don’t worry—you won’t get sick for 20 or 30 years,’” says Lisojo, shaking his head.

Smith and other residents say they’ve called the city or the police numerous times because of dangerous debris or illegal activity, to little effect.

Childs says that while the school district has no current plans to rid the building of asbestos, the district’s Facilities Management department checks up on the building daily and makes monthly visits to “clean

apists are the only criminals who don’t need an alibi. They rely on lies and the people who perpetuate those lies, like local columnist Dan Rottenberg, whose recent editorial/rapist’s manifesto went national earlier this month for trumpeting the old victim-blaming trope that victims invite rape through their clothing—a dangerous bit of pro-rape propaganda rapists have been telling juries for years.

Last week, I wrote a response to Rottenberg’s column. Some people thought I shouldn’t have, that responding would simply draw more attention to his ideas. Hogwash. The problem is the exact opposite. The lies that enable sexual assault to be practically a rite of passage while growing up—1 in 4 girls and 1 in 6 boys are molested—are already everywhere, so deeply rooted in our culture you have to dig deep to yank them out. Just look at the statistics. We’re called Killadelphia, but the rape rate is almost five times the murder rate. Only about 3 percent of rapists spend a day in jail. Staying silent has never helped a situation of sexual assault, ever. We say no. My column was a drop in the well in terms of addressing the lies perpetuated in Rottenberg’s column. We say there is no better time to learn more and write more reality checks.

In this issue, Nicole Finkbiner hit the pavement to report on street harassment. It isn’t flirting or flattering; it’s a threat that pivots on the fear of assault previously delivered by other men, TV, the worried parent who warns, ‘Be careful. You could be killed. Or worse.’

Michael Alan Goldberg talks with Dr. Jackson Katz about redefining rape as a men’s issue. Almost half of all victims of sexual assault are under 18 years old and 1 in 10 victims of sexual assault is male.

We hear from a contributor who was molested as a child and how, because of the victim-blaming lies his attacker told, no one believed him.

I report on how in good old Pennsylvania, victim-blaming lies and myths are so deeply embedded in the criminal-justice system that we are the only state left in the country that bans experts from testifying in sexual assault trials and formally instructs juries to draw verdicts based on a disproved bias against victims. (But hopefully, legislation correcting this bit of dark ages will pass this year.)

I also delve into the ways sexual assaults are downgraded in statistics. Because of the system—which relies on a definition of rape that’s 81 years old—it’s almost impossible to have a complete statistical snapshot.

What we do know is that rape is a weapon of war, a tool to put victims in their place. It says: That place is in a pool of blood or a Dumpster in an abandoned lot in Kensington. The threat of rape says, you will be told where you can and can’t go alone, and you have what’s coming to you if you don’t follow our rules. It tells kids: Love hurts.

We also know rape isn’t about sex, it’s about power. To view rape as sex is to peer down through the eyes of the perpetrator. Rape isn’t sex to a victim, whether that victim is a 7-year-old girl, a 13-year-old boy or 42-year-old woman.

It’s not random that gang rapes of black women by white men helped ignited the civil-rights movement of the 1960s: Rape is a civil-rights issue. As you’ll read about in these pages, we’ve got a long way to go. Meanwhile, we won’t answer lies with silence or burning cheeks, but with information. And honestly? Fuck that. (Tara Murtha)

Hollaback Girls

Women take a stand against street harassment.

By Nicole Finkbiner nfinkbiner@philadelphiaweekly.com

P H I L A D E L P H I A W E E K LY June 22 – 28, 2011 •

By the time they’ve hit their late teens, most females are well-versed in street harassment.

Vile and intrusive catcalls like “you got some big titties,” “I’d love to wax that ass,” and “shake it like a salt shaker,” are an unavoidable part of their daily journey to and from school, work or even a quick trip to the corner store.

As the most ubiquitous and unlegislated form of gender-based assault, street harassment has become the most widely accepted.

“Right now, street harassment is just boys will be boys, this is just a part of life, walk on by, be a good girl,” says 26-year-old Rochelle Keyhan, founder of Hollaback Philly, the local off-shoot of Hollaback!—an international movement raising awareness about street harassment by encouraging victims to speak up after being verbally or physically accosted on the street.

“That might work for some people, but that should not be our blanket response.”

“If I send him the message that it’s acceptable to tell me all the vulgar things he wants to do to my body, then it sends him the message it might be acceptable for him to follow through and actually do those things,” continues Keyhan, relaying a recent complaint about a man who verbally assaulted a female clerk in a local clothing store. When the woman ignored his comments, he approached her and lifted up her skirt. “Sexual harassment is a gateway crime.”

Keyhan says she’s endured her share of hoots and hollers growing up in suburban California, but admits she wasn’t quite prepared for what she’s experienced since moving to Philly in 2007. “These two men had been harassing me the entire subway ride home,” she says. “I got off at City Hall and one followed me off the train, up both flights of steps and three and a half blocks shouting at me, ‘Hey baby, come on, talk to me!’”

Formed by a group of friends in New York City in 2005, the main weapon of Hollaback is: Put your harasser on blast. Victims are invited to share their stories (along with photos and video of their harasser) either via email, a smartphone app or directly on Hollaback’s website. Once received, their “holla” takes the form of a pink marker on the interactive online map.

Hollaback Philly is still in its infancy stage, but Keyhan, a criminal lawyer by day, spends at least 20 hours a week pushing it off the ground.

The group officially launched its blog in April and Keyhan says, so far, it’s averaging more than 900 page views a month. She’s also in the process of organizing a free self-defense workshop for women and LGBT folks and hopes to reach out to local colleges starting this fall.

In the meantime, Hollaback Philly is taking its message to the scene of the crime—the streets.

.

(and shame) of street harassment where it lies: with the harasser. Recalling a recent incident in which she had to fend off a man making creepy gestures toward her at a Cosi, Keyhan explains the immediate impact of the movement. “He leaned really close, stared and was rapidly moving his knees all the way together and all the way apart,” she says. “Once I got my phone out, he leaned as far away as possible and faced the wall obviously knowing on some level he had been caught.”

She adds: “The peace of mind Hollaback has given me is like straight out of that Ani Difranco song, ‘Talk To Me Now,’” she says. “I really recommend women and LGBT folks holla back next time they’re harassed, if only to try out how it feels to have that power wash over them.”

By Tara Murtha tmurtha@philadelphiaweekly.com Accused rapists have more advantage in Pennsylvania courts than any other state in the country, or even military court. As the only state that doesn’t allow expert witnesses to testify in sexual assault trials, Pennsylvania allows, endorses even, fiction over fact when prosecuting cases of sexual assault.

We routinely use court-qualified forensic, medical and psychology experts as educational tools for the jury, since the average juror isn’t expected to be knowledgeable enough in subjects such as blood patterns, physical or mental illnesses to draw rational conclusions without context. But experts aren’t allowed to educate juries on behaviors of sexual assault victims and assailants. Instead, we leave jurors to reach biased verdicts based on false information gleaned from television and movies.

“We’ve had several cases where juries have acquitted serial rapists because they felt the victims’ behavior after the assault was counterintuitive,” says Deborah Harley, chief of the Family Violence and Sexual Assault Unit of the District Attorney’s Office. “One such example would be Jeffrey Marsalis.”

Marsalis, known as the “Match.com rapist,” stood trial twice in Philadelphia on rape charges. All in all, 21 women— some of whom didn’t even want to endure the stress of trial—came forward with nearly identical stories of being dined, drugged and then waking up next to Marsalis having “had sex” with little or no recollection of the event. In the morning, Marsalis, a con man who maintained false identities as a doctor, CIA agent and astronaut, would serve the alleged victims coffee with a smile.

In 2006, Marsalis was tried on three counts of rape against three women. In 2007, he was charged with 25 counts of rape against seven women.

Marsalis was acquitted of all charges in the first trial. In the second trial, “the jury acquitted on all charges except for two counts of sexual assault,” says Harley. “[The jury was] not educated on victim behavior. That was a huge, huge obstacle.”

“Some of the victims were in denial, some blamed themselves. They didn’t fight back. Some obviously experienced memory loss because we believe they were drugged,” says Harley.

After two failed prosecutions in Pennsylvania, Marsalis was finally convicted of rape only after attacking a woman and being prosecuted in Idaho.

But there’s hope that Pennsylvania may soon

uncertain terms that they’re not playing the blamethe-victim game. “Blaming women for what they wear is another excuse, its another way to dismiss violence against women,” Cabral asserts. “We need to help women … recognize this as street harassment.”

Reality Check

“I am your sister, not a hoe, slut, bitch,” read one of the many messages chalked on the pavement outside of Rittenhouse Square and the 52nd Street El station on March 20 as Keyhan and others gathered in recognition of Anti-Street Harassment Day. The diverse group of young women (and some men) shouted, waved signs and invited pedestrians to join them in chalking sidewalks with personal messages, all leading to one point: “I want to feel safe … enuf is enuf.”

Two women performed an impromptu skit of street harassment. “You should be happy that I’m even noticing you!” one shouted in the deepest male voice she could muster. “When I say ‘hey yo shorty’ and you don’t respond, that’s disrespectful to me because I’m a man and I’m complimenting you.”

“No, the best way to compliment you is by respecting you,” the other shouted back.

“Girls are being conditioned to be silent, to tolerate [harassment] because it’s part of our everyday experience,” says activist and filmmaker Nuala Cabral, 30.

“Navigating street harassment becomes like an art.” This art, Cabral notes, is also a matter of safety. “Ignoring somebody in one place might be fine, but in another … it might provoke someone to respond violently.”

In the summer of 2008, Cabral, an adjunct faculty member at Temple, sought to “question and disrupt the acceptance around these normalized, everyday interactions” through a short experimental film titled Walking Home.

Shot in Brooklyn, N.Y. and Philly, the flick follows several women walking home, nothing more than floating body parts to the men they pass. Venting their frustration through a voiceover, their inner monologue is read as a poem (“You don’t even know me, but I know you and I know what’s next. You grab my arm. You turn around and stare. You say ‘pssst, hey shorty! … damn sexy, you got a fat ass!’ Leave me alone!”).

Although she didn’t consider herself an activist before then, the overwhelming response to the film inspired Cabral to take her efforts further. In addition to organizing the anti-street harassment rally, Cabral is the cofounder of FAAN Mail (Fostering Activism and Alternatives Now!), a local media literacy/activism project in which she and a group of about 15 to 20 other women of color discuss current depictions of women in the media and creative alternatives as consumers and producers.

Both Cabral and Keyhan agree that getting people to engage in a meaningful discourse about street harassment is the only way to really fight it. They also stress that all men need to be included in the conversation—the sooner, the better. “We need to hold each other accountable and speak out,” Cabral says. In her video, Cabral talks to a group of teenage boys who willingly admit that they don’t intervene when they see a woman being harassed unless they know her.

If nothing else, Hollaback finally places the blame

it seems the biased jury instruction will have to be addressed later, separately.

“Because jury instructions come under the evidentiary rules and procedure, we did not want to create a dispute between the Legislature and the courts by possibly overstepping the line between the two branches of government,” says Briana Elzey, Parker’s chief legislative aide.

In other words: baby steps for the only state backward enough to actively perpetuate rape myths that

create biases against victims of sexual assault.

“This is a bill whose time has come,” says Diane Moyer, attorney and legal director for the Pennsylvania Coalition Against Rape, who along with Harley assisted Parker in developing the legislation.

“We have rape laws on the books in Pennsylvania, but then it’s, ‘Why did you wear a dress, why did you shave your legs, why are you a woman essentially,’” says Moyer. “You just can’t believe it’s happening in 2011.” n

A Survivor’s Story

W W W. P H I L A D E L P H I A W E E K LY. C O M

A man’s take on coping in a world that stigmatizes victims of sex crimes.

By Christian D’Angelo feedback@philadelphiaweekly.com In my early 20s, I read hundreds of documents related to my childhood sexual abuse—psychological evaluations, interview transcripts, police reports—but I couldn’t remember anything vividly. I wondered if I had maligned an innocent man—my stepfather. I wondered if I had made everything up. Somehow, I thought I was the one to blame.

It’s hard for survivors of sex crimes to cope with their emotions in a society that stigmatizes them. It’s difficult for them to find closure in a society where mysogynists like Dan Rottenberg justify sexual violence by blaming the victim.

Perhaps you’ve read his stunningly insensitive editorial in the Broad Street Review. Two weeks ago, Rottenberg—in a commentary about the rape of CBS reporter Lara Logan—argued that women could stave off attacks by taking such “sensible precautions” as locking their doors and dressing more conservatively.

He suggested that men can’t help themselves when women show skin, that rape is the natural consequence of their arousal.

To his credit, Rottenberg recognizes that rape is a brutal human reality. Unfortunately, his logic is woefully simplistic. Arousal is natural, sexual assault isn’t. I have no natural right to rape my wife or any other woman. Any man who feels differently should seek counseling.

Rape is not about pleasure or sex. The sex is a vehicle for violence. It is an excuse for the pathetic and insecure to hurt women and men and children.

In the end, sexual abuse is about dominating another human being. It’s about preying on the defenseless.

My stepfather, Danny, started abusing me when

“What did he do to you?”

“Fooled around acted like complete moron because he was drunk.”

“What do you mean?”

“It would seem like he was gay.”

“Did he touch your penis?”

“Sort of like tickled it.”

During my six-week stay in the Philadelphia Child Guidance Center at CHOP, authorities launched a new investigation. Danny continued to portray himself as the victim of an unjust inquisition. He refused to cooperate.

But in their June 17, 1994, report, Delaware County investigators said that I had provided a “clear, consistent and credible” account of being sexually abused by my stepfather. “The victim stated that the perpetrator fondled his penis,” according to the report. “Perpetrator would force child to bend over and would insert his fingers in the child’s anus. Perpetrator would groan when he did this.” He also urinated on me in the shower.

It was too late to prove any of this beyond a reasonable doubt. But police reports and hospital records showed that Danny had wrenched my arm and bruised my sternum. And it was no secret that he was a drunk and a recreational meth user. He finally admitted to endangering the welfare of a child—a misdemeanor offense. My father accepted the plea bargain. It was the only justice we could get.

To some degree, Rottenberg’s beliefs are shared by many people. They empathize with the perpetrator at the expense of the victim. This is one of many reasons why sexual abuse is notoriously underreported.

Many survivors, fearing revenge and humiliation, are too ashamed to say anything. Some drag their secret pain to the grave. Others fight every day to reclaim their souls.

At 28, I’m learning to accept that my stepfather abused me—sexually, physically and emotionally. I may never remember everything that happened to me. But I know I did nothing to deserve it. Neither did Lara Logan. n

•

I was 6 years old. I told my dad that he had touched me in ways that made me feel uncomfortable. Dad believed me, but no one believed him. Meanwhile, Danny convinced my mom and older brother that he had been falsely accused. He said that my dad and I had conjured up lies to ruin his reputation, and that we were trying to tear his new family apart.

The New Jersey Division of Family and Youth Services investigated my complaint, but my dad and I were outnumbered. No one had witnessed the crime.

It was my word against Danny’s, and he had the rest of my immediate family on his side. Investigators concluded that the allegations were unfounded.

Five years later, at age 11, I told my dad that I wanted to kill myself. He knew I had slept with a

steak knife under my pillow the past three nights.

In the emergency room at the Children’s Hospital of Pennsylvania, he scribbled a question on a yellow legal pad and asked me to write.

finally level the playing field: HB 1264, a bill introduced

by Rep. Cherelle L. Parker (D-200th) and co-sponsored

by Rep. Kate Harper (R-Montgomery County), is scheduled to hit the floor of the House this week.

If passed this time—Parker has been trying to push versions of this bill into law since 2007—HB 1264 will finally allow experts to testify regarding common behaviors of sexual assault victims.

Parker says she was directly inspired by the Marsalis case, which she followed in daily papers with increasing horror and frustration.

“Like so many people, I watch Law & Order: Special Victims Unit,” she says. “So you think as a layperson and even as a legislator, that you know how victims of sexual assault are supposed to behave. You think they’re supposed to report it to the police, seek counseling and fight back.” After the Marsalis case, Parker held public panels and spoke to psychologists, prosecutors and victims of sexual assault whose attackers were acquitted at trial.

“What people automatically assume about behavior [after being sexually assaulted]—it’s just the opposite. When you have victims of sex crimes not immediately reporting to police, not immediately going to the hospital, someone can look at it and say, ‘Wow, that’s abnormal behavior, we should question if he or she is being truthful,’ but the fact of the matter is that that is normal behavior for victims of assault,” says Parker.

Experts say of the many false assumptions wrapped up in the mythological archetype of “the good victim,” delay in reporting an assault is particularly problematic—and sunk the Marsalis case, among many others.

“The big thing in Pa., the jury perceived these women as having what they quoted as buyer’s remorse,” testified Dr. Veronique Valliere, a clinician who has worked with hundreds of victims of sexual assault, thousands of offenders and conducts Megan’s Law assessments as a member of the PA Sexual Offender Assessment Board, at a public hearing last year. “‘They didn’t like the date so they cried raped.’

And the proof of that was some of these women called him back and said, ‘What did you do to me last night. We need to talk about this.’”

“I wish I could invite you all to sit in a treatment group and go around the circle and say to each offender, ‘How did you get people to not believe the victim?’” testified Dr. Valliere. “And they will say, ‘I got her drunk.’ They’ll say, ‘You know, I told her mother what a liar she was.’ They’ll say, ‘I told him when he came back, you must have liked it, because if you didn’t like it, you wouldn’t keep coming back to see me. So it’s not really rape. You like this.’ And we’re talking about 13-year-old boys.”

Even if, after four years, HB 1264 finally graduates into law, there’s still the troubling matter of jury instruction that directly advises jurors to weigh evidence in a way that contradicts what experts know to be reality.

Buried in standard instructions judges read to jurors is line 4.13A, Failure to Make Prompt Complaint in Certain Sexual Offenses: “The evidence of [name of victim]’s [failure to complain] [delay in making a complaint] does not necessarily make [his] [her] testimony unreliable, but may remove from it the assurance of reliability accompanying the prompt complaint or outcry that the victim of a crime such as this would ordinarily be expected to make.”

Jurors are not instructed to weigh promptness of contacting authorities in cases of any other kinds of physical assault, or any other crime.

While it would make sense to propose eradicating this jury instruction while allowing expert testimony,

Checks in the Male Q&A with a leading voice against sexual violence.

By Michael Alan Goldberg mgoldberg@philadelphiaweekly.com For nearly three decades, Harvard-educated

author, lecturer and activist Dr. Jackson Katz has been one of the nation’s leading male voices against sexism and sexual violence committed by men against women. In his recent book, The Macho Paradox: Why Some Men Hurt Women and How All Men Can Help, Katz argues that when it comes to rape and sexual harassment, it’s male behavior that’s the problem, and it’s men that need to stand up and take the lead on preventing rape and changing a culture that allows rape to occur. PW talked to Katz about men’s role in stopping sexual violence.

Why is it that sexual violence has historically been considered a “women’s issue,” and that it’s up to women to make things better?

I think that’s how dominance works. Just calling rape a “women’s issue” is loaded, and it’s part of the problem. Something like 99 percent of rape is perpetrated by men, but it’s a “women’s issue”? One of the predictable consequences of that is the onus for preventing rape is put on women. A big part of the work I’ve been doing is trying to redefine it as a men’s issue and get men to become more involved in this. We have to have this paradigm shift because the status quo for most people is thinking that rape is a women’s issue but that some good men speak out and support women. That still puts the onus on women, rather than people seeing this fundamentally as a men’s issue and mens’ responsibility to prevent it.

P H I L A D E L P H I A W E E K LY June 22 – 28, 2011 •

One of your points is that in addition to rape, there’s a litany of disturbing behavior that helps create an environment where rape is condoned, justified or excused.

That’s right. Many men will say, “I’m not a rapist, this isn’t my problem,” and yet will engage in behavior—catcalling out the car window at a woman walking to work or jogging, that kind of thing—that might fall short of rape but certainly helps support a culture where a small-butvery-real percentage of men are committing rape. A lot of guys get defensive and in some cases hostile to that notion because they want to draw this bright line between themselves and rapists, and they get angry at the mere suggestion that their behavior might be contributing to this problem. Here’s an example: Two guys are sitting at an outdoor cafe on a warm summer day in Philly, and a woman walks by dressed in a sexy outfit, and one guy says to the other guy, “Look at that.” Not, “Look at her” or “Check out that beautiful woman,” but “Look at that.” The word “that” immediately objectifies her, she’s not a person, she’s “that.” That’s a very subtle but very common thing. That behavior is on a continuum where rape is the extreme, but rape doesn’t come out of nowhere. There’s a culture that breeds it. Unless you believe males are born biologically programmed to rape females,

which is ridiculous. It suggests men are not moral agents who make our own decisions, that we’re just beasts who have hormonal urges we can’t control. That’s one of the subtexts of the argument that women somehow “ask for it” because of what they’re wearing or how they’re acting—the idea is that men can’t control themselves, so it’s women’s responsibility to protect us men from our own impulses. Again, ridiculous.

How early do you think we need to start teaching males the right behavior and attitudes?

The earlier the better. This is about equality between the sexes. If rape is a tool of dominance and it helps maintain dominance, the more equality you have, the less violence you have. Rape is a form of violence and so therefore the more equality you have, the less violence. We can teach boys and girls that socially and legally, we’re working against rape in a culture that supports it.

Does that work feel like an uphill battle sometimes?

There’s no doubt it’s an uphill battle ...

We have a long way to go, but there’s been enormous progress. Look at the U.S. military, a male-dominant institution that has taken steps over the past few years that are groundbreaking and transformative. I just spoke at an Army sexual-assault prevention summit in March, where there were lots of prominent military men talking about changing a culture that helps to support rapes and sexual assault and sexual harassment. They were talking about what men can do to challenge other men and make it unacceptable for men to be abusive toward women. This wasn’t happening five, 10 years ago.

What’s the best strategy for changing male behavior and beliefs when it comes to rape and rape culture?

The work that I do in the military, in schools, in sports culture, you gotta give men an opportunity to think through some of their attitudes and beliefs and behaviors and then come to a new understanding about what’s wrong and right. Roundly condemning men for holding beliefs that are widely held in part of male culture is not a very productive strategy. But at the same time, there do have to be consequences.

What does it say to women when a guy can make an incredibly sexist, victim-blaming statement and not suffer consequences? If an editor of a newspaper made an incredibly racist statement about people of color bringing [violence] on themselves if they act a certain way, that they “must have been asking for it,” what would the response be?

What’s the difference between racism and sexism as systems of oppression? There’s no difference, really. n

Down for the Count

The number of rape victims reported don’t reflect reality.

By Tara Murtha tmurtha@philadelphiaweekly.com How many women, men and children are sexually assaulted every year in Philadelphia, or Pennsylvania, or the U.S.? It depends who you ask—as long as you don’t follow the official statistics, called Uniform Crime Reports (UCR).

“The UCR Program is a voluntary ... law-enforcement program that provides a nationwide view of crime based on the submission of statistics by law enforcement agencies throughout the country,” according to the UCR Handbook. The FBI estimates the statistics represent almost 95 percent of the population. Stats indicate arrests, not successful prosecutions. “[The UCR statistics] provide law enforcement with data for use in budget formulation, planning, resource allocation, assessment of police operations, etc.”

Established in the 1920s, the first data was collected in 1930. Eighty-one years later, a solid snapshot of crime patterns across the country should be available at a glance, and it is—except when it comes to sexual assault.

The UCR’s definition of rape hasn’t been updated since 1929: “Carnal knowledge of a female forcibly and against her will.” “Carnal knowledge” is defined as “the act of a man having sexual bodily connections with a woman; sexual intercourse.”

In this definition, the only rapes that “count” are male-to-female rape that includes demonstrative physical force and penetration of the vagina by a penis.

Victims who don’t count in this definition include: Children, even though 44 percent of all rape victims are under 18; men, even though they represent one in 10 rape victims; victims who, like Lara Logan, were assaulted orally, anally or with hands, fingers and/or objects; and victims of female-on-female sexual assault.

An FBI staffer admitted the definition is “very narrow” but reasoned that eventually, a National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) with a more accurate definition of rape will be the preferred tracking system over the UCR. However, only 28 percent of the country uses NIBRS so far and there is not a foreseeable date for a complete switch. Philadelphia does not use this system.

The “hierarchy rule” is another way rapes are downgraded in national statistics. The rule dictates that except in cases of robbery and arson, only the most severe crime against an individual counts. The worst crime is, of course, murder.

That means for example, Sabina Rose O’Donnell, the popular PYT hostess who was raped and strangled to death last summer near Girard Avenue, doesn’t count. Neither does Elaine Goldberg, Nicole Piacentini and Casey Mahoney, all raped and murdered by the Kensington Strangler.

Keeping these restrictions in mind, the FBI stats—the ones that determine resource allocation—show that 896 “forcible rapes” took place in Philadelphia in 2009 and 945 in 2010. Though everyone agrees these numbers are low, there is no one reliable source for “real” numbers—and that’s the problem. “[This is] the only reporting system where you get local information so for us to know what serious sex crime data is … we need something that does more than provide data based on the narrow definition in the UCR,” says Terry Fromson, managing attorney at the Women’s Law Project. “Service agencies that provide assistance to victims of sexual assault, they need to fund raise, they need to talk about what the scope of crime is out there and this data is not properly reflecting it,” says Fromson.

There are intangible consequences to UCR’s flaws, too.

“It’s our perspective that this whole thing shapes how [police] officers perceive what a serious sex crime is,” says Fromson.

Women’s Law Project has been advocating for a new UCR definition for years and has worked with the Philadelphia Police Department to develop a new classification system after a 1999 investigative report by the Inquirer revealed the PPD had misclassified—and effectively shelved—thousands of sexual assaults as noncriminal offenses from the mid-1980s through 1998.

In a hearing held last September before the Senate Committee on the Judiciary Subcommitee on Crime and Drugs, Women’s Law Project Executive Director Carol Tracy testified that the problem of under-reporting rape is far from over.

Since assisting the post-scandal PPD, Tracy has heard similar stories out of St. Louis, New Orleans, Baltimore, Cleveland, Milwaukee and New York.

“There is no question that sexual stereotypes and bias are a root cause of police mishandling of sex crimes,” testified Tracy. “Less visible but no less responsible is the manner in which the FBI’s UCR system defines, analyzes and publicizes the incidence of sex crimes.” n

White Denim

Forget music, Austin’s White Denim need to market what they’re smoking. Trading trio for quartet on their latest, D, they remain a heady melange situated at the nexus of the ’60s and ’70s. Cloud-surfing prog shuffles past shimmery art-folk and flute-y Jethro Tull-style indulgences. Groovy jams vacillate between blooze boogie bluster, jazz-soul sophistication and head-lolling psychedelica.

The melodies are surprisingly durable, despite being submerged within billowing clouds of sativa-inspired headspace. It could be a mess of melted M&Ms, stale French fries and old condom wrappers lodged between the cushions of an old Chevy Impala. Instead, it moves with lighthearted ease, eyes twinkling with delight that’s keenly communicated through the music. ChrIS pArKer $10. Johnny Brenda’s, 1201 N.

Inside/Out The disability community is a group that has been historically marginalized yet rarely heard.

Inside/Out is a groundbreaking performance piece about the culture and identity of the disabled in America. The play features a collection of individual stories intermingled with historical events told from the point of view of the disabled. The performance features deeply personal stories from Christopher Imbrosciano, a young actor with cerebral palsy, and Vivian Cary Jenkins, a former health-care administrator who lost her sight. The cast utilizes humor and theatricality as well as repetition, rhythm and role-playing to create a thoughtprovoking and culturally poignant work. JeSSICA

Tumbling Bones Tumbling Bones 20-somethings Peter Winne, Jake Hoffman and Sam McDougle believe that grit and emotional intensity are what Old Time American Music is all about. In a former incarnation, the band’s fiery American spirituals won them first prize in the 2007 Prairie Home Companion, “People in Their Twenties Talent Competition.” Currently touring the East Coast for their new EP Risk Not Your Soul, the Bones bring back the fire, but pair it with driving fiddle tunes (“Sally Johnson”), wistful folk ballads (“East VA Blues”), and rusty country blues (“St. Louis Blues”).

Highlights include a wrenching take on Bill Monroe’s “What Would You Give In Exchange For Your Soul?” See them here so you can say you saw them when. And don’t show up too fashionably late—girl trio the Old Fashioneds are kicking things off with fresh and technically flawless renditions of country and gospel standards that will tug on your heartstrings. eMMA eISenBerg

Full House: A Series of Cabarets How many cabarets can you pack into four days? Quint Productions has answered that question with seven performances, 11 performers and one cabaret extravaganza. Start the weekend early and “Forget Your Troubles” with fresh Thursday night show from Sarah J. Gafgan. But don’t forget you’ve got a hot date on Friday with Brendan Norton; the keyboard-playing, drum-beating, “gay”-song singing hotshot will have you “Breezin’ on Through the Day” in no time. Once Brendan has got you all warmed up, it’s time to get cool with the sharp-witted Michael Tomassetti, a veteran of such salacious stage-shows as “Show and Tell”—about a gay priest who pays a young orderly to get on his knees and ... pray. Stay awake for the final show, Andrew Terranova’s “You’re Gonna Hear from Bea—A Cabaret Tribute to Bea Arthur.” CArl A. O’DOnnell

This three-day fest screens more than 80 original documentary, short and feature films submitted by black students and independent filmmakers. On Friday there will be a screening of 1-in-3, a drama exposing the world of domestic violence in the U.S. Saturday’s Dreamcatchers panel discussion will feature actresses Vanessa Bell Calloway (Hawthorne) and Tisha Campbell (My Wife & Kids), who will share their personal experiences in the film industry and take questions from the audience.

And on Sunday, the Bahamas International Film Festival Day will screen 14 films from the Caribbean Islands with an awards presentation to wrap it all up. Kelly Offner 11am-6pm. $10-$50. Crowne Plaza, 4010 City Ave. urbansuburbanfilmfestival.com

Meet Me On South St. Local musician-turned-basement anthropologist George Manney is neck deep in Philly music connections, memorabilia and stories, especially when it comes to the epic history of South Street bar and rock ’n’ roll mecca J.C. Dobbs. Just about every major rocker played the bar during its more than 20-year run including then-unknowns Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Oasis and Lucinda Williams. Manney’s documentary film contains archival photos and videos of the bar’s most famous performances, as well as contemporary interviews on the bar’s legacy and it’s role in shaping the ’70’s music counterculture. e.e.

The Best of liza Jessie Peterson

H

omegirl Liza (pronounced lee’zuh) Jessie Peterson is returning to Philly for a one-night, one-woman performance to benefit the Women’s Medical Fund. The Best of Liza Jessie Peterson showcases her thespian chops— honed at the National Shakespeare Conservatory—by interpreting a carnival of characters while busting out some of the poetry skills that lead her to win slam contests at NYC’s famed Nuyorican Poetry Café.

The theme is “finding light in dark places,” which makes sense for an artist who consistently addresses issues of social injustice with a sharp tongue and funny bent. “I don’t try to write funny, it just comes out that way. I guess it’s ’cause I was raised around a bunch of professional shit talkers who were always holding court.” TArA MUrThA Fri., June 24, 7:30pm. $5-$25.

“The last thing we wanted was to open another fucking bourgie coffee shop. This will evolve into a more legitimate community space where unpredictable things happen and new ideas form,” Grindcore House co-owner Mike Barone told PW last November. Since then, the all-vegan cafe has hosted art shows, movies, book talks and more. Tonight begins a new series called Publick Intercourse modeled on the “penny universities” that formed in 17th-century London coffee houses as a platform for workers to discuss timely political and economic issues.

King of Pop Hip-Hop Workshop

dmit it—you’ve totally fantasized about what it would be like to channel the King of Pop’s spirit and tear up a dance floor with an awesome choreographed dance routine. But if you really want to become the envy of the club, you’re going to have to execute MJ’s legendary moves flawlessly. During this 75-minute workshop, an experienced instructor will guide you through several dance combinations set to some of MJ’s greatest hits including, “PYT” and “The Way You Make Me Feel.” You’ll even learn a modified version of his “Thriller” routine along with a few segments of his original choreography. No dance experience necessary; donning a hat and white glove optional. nicolE FinkbinEr Sun., June 26, 3:30pm. $12-$15. Major Movement Studio, 1624 South St. 215.645.2717. phillydancefitness.com

If We Set Out Now is Pryor’s stellar Kickstarter-funded follow-up EP, with many of the songs (the sing-along-able “Lay Me Down,” the old-timey courtship duet “Gasoline Love” with Common Sinner Emma Morrow) already in-concert faves for local fans. This record-release show will provide a suitable return for the musician who last year relocated to Austin. JEFFrEY barG 7:30pm. $12-$15. Christ Church Theater, 20 N.

Clark Park Summer Solstice

In “Stripped Legacy,” one of 35 pieces on display in photographer JD Dragan’s new exhibit, an unashamedly naked black man peers intently out of the frame. He’s holding a small Confederate flag draped across his genitals, its flimsy material contrasting with the solidity of his musculature. The image is sure to engender a gamut of emotions in viewers, including surprise and discomfort, which is the point. According to the artist, who decided more than 30 years ago to concentrate on the male nude and also to photograph men of color exclusively, this is his first overtly political show. His earlier work has garnered accolades and is part of the collections at both the Kinsey Institute and the National Museum of African American History and Culture. This show adds something to the aesthetic and formal pleasures he and his models conjured in earlier pieces: An exploration of the constraining effects of religion and consumerism on men of color. See it yourself before judging. raYMonD SiMon

So you caught your beau at Delilah’s in awe of the blond and bodacious “Bambi” like a deer in headlights ... what now? You have two options: You can kick the loser to the curb, or you can throw on some sky-high stilettos so he’ll never want to leave the house. Should you choose the latter, Lace It Up Dance Studio is hosting a one-night introduction to burlesque, complete with wine, light refreshments and big-band tunes from the ’40s. Participants will learn

walls of the Fabric Workshop Museum, looping for about an hour to passersbys and guests at the Convention Center. The projection’s debut is timed to begin just as attendees of the International Society for Technology in Education conference start spilling out into the street at 8:30pm. The conference’s theme is “Unlocking Potential”, and it seems these students have already found the key. D.W. 8:30pm. Free. The Fabric Workshop and Museum, 1214 Arch St. 215.685.0759. muralarts.org

The Canadians recently unleashed their latest Matador LP, and it’s an 80-minute punk-rock opera set in Thatcher’s England. David Comes To Life tells the story of a Brit factory worker whose anarchist lover dies while executing a radical political action, and when David’s accused of the murder, the destructiveness of capitalism is amplified by the loss. The tale’s told over heroic rock compositions that reach the sonic force and refinement of an orchestra, but this music’s of and for the people. In recent interviews, charismatic frontman Damian Abraham’s alluded to the possibility of the band continuing without him, so don’t fuck up and miss this opportunity. E.S. 7:30pm. $12-$13.

27 Slang Fest 2011 Tonight’s the night to catch up on the local hiphop scene, as Slang Fest 2011 brings five Philly artists under the KFN roof. DistantStarr, the solo project of Philadelphia-via-NYC MC Donnell Michael Jones, self-released the For Them Vol. 1 Mixtape in June. Songs like “Here We Go” have a classic, Parliament Funkadelic style, while his flow summons early Jurassic 5 and Hieroglyphics. The general blurriness and sustaining, wavering-synth of “Night Shift”—which samples the Commodores song of the same name—shows DistantStarr tapping into the hypnagogia drifting across the underground pop and hip-hop scenes. Yikes is the weirdo on the bill. His oddball tracks are built on fuzz and jaggedly assembled clips, and his vocal approach is similar to Q-Tip’s with the prankster vibe of Quasimoto-era Madlib.

28 Centro-Matic When people start talking about prolific indierock songwriters, names like Robert Pollard and Bonnie “Prince” Billy are usually the first to come up. But Texas singer/multi-instrumentalist Will Johnson is no slouch, either. Over the past 15 years Johnson’s released nearly two-dozen full-length albums, plus tons of EPs, via his own name and other collaborative projects. And you’d be hard-pressed to find a dud in that prodigious output. Centro-matic, which probably rocks the hardest of Johnson’s many vehicles, is also the most arresting. The quartet’s bittersweet, atmospheric slow burn is often reminiscent of “Cortez the Killer”-style Neil Young & Crazy Horse—ragged tales of longing and regret against a sprawling desert landscape where the stars meet the sand. They hit town tonight behind the phenomenal, justreleased Candidate Waltz. MichaEl alan GolDbErG 7:30pm. $8-$10. North Star Bar, 2639 Poplar St. 215.787.0488. northstarbar.com

You’re Quite The Dish

Pork Belly Bao Buns at Chifa

By Cristina Perachio

feedback@philadelphiaweekly.com Pork Belly Bao Buns at Chifa, you’re quite the dish! Tell me a bit about your heritage.

Well, the Iron Chef himself, Jose Garces, wanted to update the traditional ChineseCantonese bao: meat or veggies steamed inside of a bready bun. With Garces’ take, I’m more of a small sandwich. Small in stature, not in taste or presentation, of course.

Well, of course! What are you wearing?

I’m dressed in a lovely hoisin glaze made with sweet potatoes, sesame, garlic and quite a bit of sugar. Then I accessorize with house-made pickled daikon radish and julienne carrot plus a red-chili-pepper-based togarashi mayo topped with sliced scallions.

Now, forgive me, but how do you keep your buns so light and fluffy?

Girl, don’t apologize for my good fortune—I know I look good! Chef Natalie Maronski says it’s all about the buns! And the key to my set is they must double-proof, or rise, to prevent them from being too dense. They’re steamed in house every morning, pre-steamed before service and then steamed again on pick-up to ensure the perfect texture.

You are one high-maintenance sandwich.

Is your filling equally time-consuming?

I’m a bit of a diva, I’ll admit. The pork belly is cooked sous vid-style: It’s brined and cryovaced then cooked in a set-temp circulator bath for 10 hours at 82 degrees celcius. Finally, the pork is sliced, baked and tossed with hoisin.

P H I L A D E L P H I A W E E K LY June 22 – 28, 2011

You’ve got the salty/sweet thing going for you: Is that why you’re Chifa’s most popular dish?

I certainly appeal to a wide range of taste buds. Even if you’re a Veggie, I have a cousin who’s stuffed with tofu, instead of pork, that’s coated in cornstarch, deep fried until he’s nice and crispy outside. Customers who’ve tasted tofu say he’s just as good as his meaty cuz.

Do you agree?

Do you agree that Beyoncé’s “Run the World (Girls)” is a follow-up on par with “Single Ladies?” Did Sex & the City 2 rival the original?

I think I get your point?

Honey, they might taste the tofu, but I get them to make the reservation.

It’s anchored by aromatic making mouths water at Desi Chaat cashews and dried melon seeds spiced in such a way that House. they feel as though they’re passing low levels of electricity through your tongue with each forkful. There’s a different kind of heartiness at the heart of the Mumbai chaat: dark tones of the lentils provide the ballast, a richness countered by the spice of chaat masala and the bracing bitterness of roughly chopped radish.

There are no tables inside this modest space, just a counter at the window with room for three or four, and a handful of tables on the sidewalk. Make sure you specify whether you’ll be eating in or taking home for later. Takeout orders are packaged with wet and dry components separate, as so much of the joy of the chaats—the interplay of crunchy and tender, as well as spicy and sweet and salty—is textural.

This isn’t an issue with Dahi Bhalla chaat, a soupy construct whose focal point shifts constantly between chutneys (mint, yogurt, tamarind) and the garam dumplings at the center. The longer you let it sit, the less differentiation there is between the liquid and the dumplings, which are velvety and tender to begin with. Best not take this for the road.

The only chaat that failed to win me over, really, was the Andhra: Its description—black eyed peas, lentils, chickpeas, red chili and more—didn’t hint that the flavors would be dominated instead by the vaguely chemical-tasting chickpea-flour sticks scattered on top of it all.

On the other end of the spectrum is the preposterously named crazy chaat. In name, it runs the risk of giving the impression that it’ll fall as flat as so many of those overreaching “crazy rolls” at sushi houses, the sheer mass of components overwhelming any sense of structure. But it’s a risk in name alone, and the kitchen-sink chaat that you’re

So Far, So Goo

Chris Lawrence lays the foundation for a massive installation at Airspace.

By Katherine Rochester feedback@philadelphiaweekly.com

c h r i s l aw r e n c e

Often mixed into big buckets or spread thinly across sheets of Plexi, this substance has become increasingly central to Lawrence’s work.

Crowned—for now—with a KitchenAid mixer, Lawrence envisions the nexus of boards and bolts he’s assembling as the nucleus of the eventual installation; a kitchen where the cream hits the cookie in a big bang that sends the rest of the sculptural elements on a slow sail through space.

Sludge report: Chris Lawrence's new work will be sustained by this As with any genesis, there’s mysteriously viscous goo. no telling exactly how the proverbial cookie will crumble. That’s just fine Stepping into artist Chris Lawrence’s studio with Lawrence, who received his MFA from is like entering a giant game of “I spy” sponsored by Home Depot.

in vast panoramic western vistas that test the limits of digital photography. Buck’s got a lovely wife and several daughters, one of whom spends her summers riding with the old man from town to town, helping out with all the pretty, unruly horses.

But life wasn’t always so sanguine. Buck ’s secret weapon soon arrives when we become privy to Brannaman’s troubled past. Raised by a violent, widower alcoholic named Ace (of course), the lad was rechristened “Buckshot” and sent out on the rodeo circuit, performing rope-tricks at 3 years old. When not appearing in cereal commercials, the young Buck was savagely beaten on a regular basis, at one point harrowingly recounting a freezing winter night spent sleeping in the doghouse, cowering in terror of his volatile father.

Brannaman’s older brother “Smokie” was dragged into the family business as well, yet remains conspicuously absent from the documentary. Eventually, a friendly football coach and the county sheriff intervened, as the children’s welts and scars became Rein man: Buck Brannaman uses positive reinforcement to impossible to ignore.

Six Pack

Six Films that Originated on Television

By Matt Prigge

mprigge@philadelphiaweekly.com

The Killers (1964): Movie attendance dropped

with the advent of TV; by the 1960s it was back up thanks to gimmicks like cinemascope and 3-D. Execs thought they could lure them back home with “TV movies,” and by 1964 the John Forsythe-starring See How They Run became the first. But the first was supposed to be Don Siegel’s stab at Ernest Hemingway’s short story, already the source for the 1947 classic with Burt Lancaster. Alas, it was deemed too violent and thrown into theaters instead. Of course, that’s what happens when you hire the future director of Dirty Harry: John Cassavetes gets assassinated in front of blind kids and Angie Dickinson is both dangled out a window and bitch-slapped by the 40th president of the United States (in his last role).

anyway. This may have increased viewer awareness when it hit theaters, but it also screwed over lead Linda Fiorentino, who was disqualified for a nobrainer Oscar nomination.

The Girl Who Played With Fire

Scenes From a Marriage (1973): Ingmar Bergman became attracted to the larger canvas TV offered right around the time he achieved Master Director status. So anything he made wound up on American screens. Originally, this grisly marital bout ran five hours, two longer than the version that most Americans once saw. Later he performed the same gouging to Fanny and Alexander.

Vincent & Theo (1990): Robert Altman spent

the ’80s mostly floundering, but TV seemed to ignite his creative juices. Tanner ’88, his faux-presidential campaign show for HBO, is a trenchant hoot, while his four-hour BBC series about the Van Gogh brothers (Tim Roth as Vincent, Paul Rhys as Theo) led directly into his official comeback with The Player.

The Last Seduction (1994): John Dahl’s neonoir wasn’t made for TV, but it debuted on HBO

The Girl Who Played With Fire (2009): Un-

like Dragon Tattoo, its two sequels were TV movies.

Which explains why they’re even worse than the first.

The Trip (2010): Not sure what the appeal is of having less Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon banter, but at least the editors who cut down a six-episode series to 107 minutes didn’t elide their dueling Michael Caine impressions.

The Bynars are dangerously deceptive. The Boston-based quartet just released their debut, self-titled LP, and on it they play delightfully catchy songs that have hooks for days, in-your-face jangly guitars and warm and soaring synths. They sound like a hug feels. Which is why you barely notice that they’re also ABSOLUTELY PUMMELING YOU with some of the tightest, positivity-drenched, smileinducing pop since the Rentals. They’re in town this week, so PW caught up with Wayne’s World-obsessed Bynars guitarist/vocalist Matt Jatkola to play a little round of Fill in the Blanks.

We have a song called “How Does It Feel To Be In Love.” The answer is simple ... it feels as if there is a bowl of spaghetti in your stomach. If feels kinda weird, squishy ... kinda good ... kinda bad ... I’d say that’s pretty accurate. Unfortunately, I just thought of that now and not while we were writing the song, so our version contains no mention of pasta whatsoever. But perhaps we’ll write the spaghetti-centric version soon.

For our money, no one in music is doing it better right now than ... Best Coast! It’s hard for me to

People often tell us we remind them of ... the Rentals, Fountains of Wayne, the Beatles. I always thought “The Shitty Beatles” (from Wayne’s World ) was a fantastic band name, and should be every band’s name post-1962.

But seriously, those are some of our favorite bands. It’s flattering when people compare us to anyone, let alone some of our favorites! With our new album, The Bynars, there’s much more of an electronic flavor to it than our previous EPs, and we’re excited to get into that world. I would love for someone in the near future to say we remind them of a mix between Nine Inch Nails and The Partridge Family.

Our dream gig would be ... I’m going to say that

“so good” too much! I don’t know what it’s like in Philly, but we hear that everything is “so good” all the time in Boston.

We’re guilty of overusing the phrase ourselves at times, but I think it’s time someone took a stand. “This band? So Good.” “This organic, gluten-free, low cal, nondairy frozen dessert is soooo good !” We’re making a conscious effort to memorize the thesaurus entries for “so” and “good” and we urge everyone to do the same. We’ll begin the trend by saying: “It is indeterminately satisfactory !”

Seriously, what the fuck is the deal with ... that scene in Wayne’s World where Garth smashes the robotic hand with a hammer after saying “We fear change.” I think it’s one of the funniest parts, and like so much of the rest of the movie, it feels like it’s referencing something, like an old movie or TV show ... but I have no idea what it is! I’m familiar with most of the other references and spoofs in the movie, but this one stumps me. Someone once told me they thought it was borrowed from a Twilight Zone episode, but I don’t know if that’s true. Can anyone help?! Please?!

As a band, we have a few goals we’d like to meet. None of them as big a priority as .... becoming a great live band. Since we started, we’ve always been all about writing quality songs, and we will continue to do so, but translating them into a live setting is not always easy. Being at a show is a far cry from strumming a guitar in your bedroom or recording in a studio. We’re always working on new and better ways to perform the songs in a live setting, and thinking of ways to engage the crowd with our music. We’ve found that throwing candy (or anything) at the audience and swearing a lot is a good way to get ’em going, but you can’t always rely on physical or verbal assaults. n

describe how much their stuff resonates with me. We’re all big fans. I guess it’s what everyone always says about Best Coast: simple songs about heartbreak, great vibe, great voice. I love that there’s no fluff, just these great songs.

Nothing wrong with that at all. The longing, the Lesley Gore-ish attitude toward boys—I love everything about that stuff. I can’t wait for them to record some new songs.

Can you imagine us playing with Converge?! I can’t think of a more awkward thing. It would be awesome and I’m sure they’d hate us. So if any promoters wanna put together a Devo/Converge/Bynars bill, we are down.

15 Context-Free Sentences From Larry Magid’s New Book

By Brian McManus

bmcmanus@philadelphiaweekly.com

egendary Philly concert promoter L Larry Magid has staged the biggest shows the city has ever witnessed, and has been at it a loooong ass time.

His new book My Soul Has Been Psychedelicized: Electric Factory Four Decades in Posters and Photographs, captures the big moments, the clashes with the city’s powers that be, the majesty of making stars out of thenlittle acts like the Boss and the Glorious Spirit of What Was in a colorful coffee table book, out now from Temple Press.

Magid will be chatting with World Cafe’s David Dye at the Free Library this Thursday, telling Big Tales of Yesteryear and showing off some of his unquestionably badass memoriabilia.

Now, collected for you here, 15 context-free sentences from the book.

1. “The next time I booked her at the Factory, it was for seven shows in three days; she showed up with a 101-degree fever, slugged Southern Comfort for two days, and somehow played all her shows brilliantly.

6. “Before his performances Steve Martin went out onto Broad Street with an arrow through his head to work the waiting crowd and direct traffic.”

7. “We promoted this historic Pryor-Nixon collaboration through the local DJs, and Richard Pryor gave our 37th president an inimitable sendoff.”

8. “Kaufman opened for Manilow.”

9. “They’d brought their own pots and pans and goat meat.”

10. “The timing could not have been trickier: Morrison had recently been arrested for exposing himself onstage in Miami.”

11. “Before a Grateful Dead concert at JFK Stadium in the seventies, a roadie setting up the show demanded to be supplied with cocaine.”

12. “The strangest band demand involved M&M’s.”

2. “Later, we heard that what really upset the mayor and the commissioner was black boys dancing with white girls.”

13. “An event of this magnitude cannot be put on in five weeks.”

3. “In 1966 the city’s underground consisted of about 100

14. “The Brits announced that Prince Charles would be the

hippies who congregated in Rittenhouse Square or on Sansom Street.”

4. “The first nine years I worked in the music business, I made very little money.”

15. “We got a call from the hospital: someone in the audience is waiting for a kidney transplant and they got one.”

5. “Herby had closed the Showboat too, turning it into a singles bar called Chances Are.”

host, so Bill Graham brought in American royalty: Jack Nicholson.”

Larry Magid reads from his book Thurs., June 23, 7:30pm. Free.

Critic's Pick

On the Record

Album reviews in 30 seconds or less

By Bill Chenevert

Battles

Gloss Drop (Warp) Sounds Like: A really tight sophomore

from the Brooklyn prog and noise rockers, who despite losing a core member, have ramped up their pop levels to Awesome.

Free Association: The video for “Ice Cream” will knock your damn socks off.

For Fans Of: Don Caballero + Notwist, King Crimson x Foals, badass drummers.

EMA

Past Life Martyred Saints (Souterrain Transmissions) Sounds Like: Singer-songwriter and

experimentalist, this one-woman band has created a dynamic and quietly powerful debut of reverb-heavy dark noise pop.

Free Association: She uses clever turns of phrase and understated politics well.

For Fans Of: Sonic Youth x Cat Power + Patti Smith, anti-GaGa non monsters.

Kate Bush

Director’s Cut (Fish People) Sounds Like: The bizarro Queen of Brit Prog Pop’s revisiting two records (Red Shoes and Sensual World), re-recording

them and, in some cases, re-writing them, too.

Free Association: She’s lost a little falsetto, but she’s as breathy and arty as ever.

For Fans Of: Stevie Nicks x Tori Amos, Nico + PJ Harvey, respect for your elders.

Cults

Cults (Sony/Columbia) Sounds Like: The hype behind this

debut is pretty annoying, but the NYUborn indie pop duo’s lady singer has got a sick voice and “Go Outside” is damn near perfect.

Free Association: Far enough away from any use of the word “beachy” to be good.

For Fans Of: Lykke Li + Tennis, Vampy Weekend x Phil Spector, next big things.

Fucked Up

Dinosaur Jr., Henry Rollins + OFF! ifficult to categorize this one. Is it a circus in search of a tent? A twisted trip down college radio’s collective memory D lane? A bunch of mostly long-haired buddies having a good time on a Friday night? Anybody with an ear for what was once called Underground Rock Music should recognize all the major names and egos on the bill. A reunited Dinosaur Jr. has been back at it for a few years, and this time around they’ll be performing their third album, 1988’s Bug, in its entirety. Henry Rollins, a clean-cut renaissance man known for having an athletic build and an intense personality, will be interviewing the band live and onstage. To begin the night’s program: OFF!, some type of all-star group with a pedigree to ape the sounds of 1976 Hermosa Beach. And though original Black Flag and Circle Jerks singer Keith Morris and three feet of dreadlocks front OFF!, the most electric character on stage is likely to be Steve MacDonald of Redd Kross. Perhaps the only person sure to be absent this night is the tie that binds these acts together: Black Flag and SST Records founder Greg Ginn.

(Richie Charles)

Fri., June 24. 8:30pm. $39.70. Electric Factory, 421 N. Seventh St. 215.627.1332. electricfactory.info

David Comes To Life (Matador) Sounds Like: Toronto-based punk

collective’s third may, in fact, be more awesome than their Polaris Prizewinning sophomore. It’s a full-on hardcore punk epic.

Free Association: A more literary version if Black Flag tried to make a Tommy.

For Fans Of: Pissed Jeans, Minor Threat x Ted Leo, totally listenable hardcore punk.

Ledisi

Pieces Of Me (Verve Forecast) Sounds Like: The Grammy-nominated,

incredibly soulful R&B workhorse’s fifth studio album has killer hooks, stunning vocals and surprise gems buried deep within.

Free Association: You must hear “Shut Up.” Think you know R&B divas? Check yourself.

For Fans Of: Estelle + Chrisette Michele, Jazzy Sullivan, realness, feel good jamz.

By Dan Savage mail@savagelove.net

I’m a single 24-year-old gay actor/singer/ comedian who’s going to be a doctor in a few years—I have varied interests—and I think being in a porn flick would be really hot. I don’t know what the ramifications of ramming on cam could be with regard to my future career. The field I want to go into is a very specific burgeoning branch of medicine generally unrelated to sex, but still involving patient care, and I want to be on the cutting edge of this type of medicine. I don’t know how much the world of medicine pays attention to this sort of thing when checking up on prospective doctors. Thoughts?

Wants To Film Lusty Orgasmic Lovin’ I don’t know if appearing in porn will make going into medicine more difficult, WTFLOL, but it sure can fuck up a political career.

Considering the amount of time and money that you’re going to invest in becoming a doctor, and considering the recent moral panic about a few stray dick pics, I would advise you to err on the side of not appearing in commercial porn, which would require you to show your face. But go ahead and show everything else on an amateur porn site like XTube—just edit out any shots that show your face and don’t let the camera linger on any distinguishing features (a distinctive tattoo that’s visible when you’re clothed, the parasitic twin that juts from your neck). And, hey, if you want to make porn, have it seen by thousands of people, not have it live forever online and maybe win a big cash prize, you can enter HUMP!, my annual amateur porn festival.

First, at three years, all your kink cards should be lying face up on the table. She’s not obligated to get into fisting to please you, as you’re aware, so you’re not going to “ruin her” just by broaching the subject.

Second, you say something like “I think vaginal fisting is hot and I’m curious what you, the vagina-haver in this relationship, think about it.”

Third, I’m tempted to say, “You start by removing your watch,” but no one wears a watch anymore and all wannabe vag-fisters should start by reading Deborah Addington’s A Hand in the Bush: The Fine Art of Vaginal Fisting. (“If fisting ruined one for other partners, I’d have been fucked outta luck a long time ago,” Addington said when I shared your email with her. She recommends plenty of lube and lots of Kegels, if your girlfriend goes for it. “The only ‘drastic and permanent’ changes that occur are the changes of mind and body that come when one realizes how much pleasure one can have,” Addington continued. “That’s life altering. The stretched-out black-hole-of-doom is a myth. I’m 46 and can still walk up a flight of stairs without dropping the Ben Wa Balls—and that after plenty of fisting, with more than one partner.”)

Speaking of gaping orifices: Rick Santorum told CNN’s Don Lemon that he has gay friends and he loves his gay friends and they love him back. The openly gay Lemon, oddly enough, did not demand names and contact information for these gay friends.

I’d like to hear directly from the gays who love Santorum despite Santorum’s belief that gay people are no better than dog fuckers and child rapists, his promise to repeal the DADT repeal, his desire to write anti-gay bigotry into the U.S. Constitution, his opposition to gay adoption and his belief that consensual gay sex should be a felony. If Santorum’s gay friends love Santorum as much as Santorum loves his gay friends, I’m sure they would be only too glad to speak to the media about their love of Santorum.

Santorum told Lemon that his imaginary gay friends prove that he’s no homophobe. But if you believe—as Santorum has said repeatedly— that gays and lesbians are a threat to the family and a danger to the country, then you should be openly and proudly homophobic. So either Santorum is lying when he says we’re a threat to the family, a danger to the country, etc., or he’s lying when he says he has gay friends.

Which is it, Rick?

I’m going to get slaughtered for this: There are people out there who have panic attacks and drinking problems, don’t want to get married or have children, are cold, distant, withholding “lovers,” etc., who weren’t molested by highschool teachers or anybody else. I’m not saying that your boyfriend’s history is unrelated to his other issues—I can’t say that—but if he doesn’t regard that relationship as the source of all his troubles, MM, you should stop insisting that he feel terrible/victimized/damaged because that’s how you think he should feel.

Are you pathetic? No, MM, you’re not. You’re in a relationship that’s not living up to your expectations, and it’s making you unhappy. Now you have a big choice and a smaller subchoice to make: Either you can adjust your expectations and stay with this guy, MM, and try to appreciate the things he brings into your life, or

I’m a 22-year-old male with a vaginal fisting fetish. I have yet to tell my girlfriend of three years about this. First, although we’re in love, no relationship is 100 percent guaranteed, and fulfilling this particular kink would result in drastic and permanent physical changes that could ruin her for anyone else if we don’t make it. Second, I’m not sure how to ask. I can’t just say, “Hey, hon? Mind if I jam my arm in there?” Third, even if she were for it, I don’t know where to start!

Fetishist In Serious Turmoil

www.sansomstreetgym.com

My boyfriend and I have been together for 10 years. A few years ago, he informed me that he was molested in high school by a teacher and was in a sexual relationship with this man until he met me. I don’t have a problem with him being bisexual, but I do have a problem with him not having a problem with his molestation. He feels it was consensual; I feel this man preyed on him. He used to drink to avoid dealing with his emotions. He stopped drinking when he met me, but this secret causes him to have panic attacks. I help heal his wounds, but what do I get in return? Not what I want. I give him love and I accept him—and he tells me that he doesn’t want kids and doesn’t want to marry me. He also hardly touches me. We’re better friends than lovers. If I leave him, he’ll have no one. If I stay, I feel alone. We have fun and make each other laugh, so it’s not all bad. But I’m pathetic, right?

Midwest Mess

you can refuse to adjust your expectations and (1) be miserable in this relationship or (2) leave this guy and get out there and find someone else or die trying.
