t 6-foot-8, Rev. Ronald M. Jakows stood more closely to heaven than most. Though impressive, his physical prowess was miniscule when compared with his spiritual renown among the parishioners at his Passyunk Square church. Seven months into his first pastoral assignment at Annunciation BVM, 1511 S. 10th St., Jakows further endeared himself to his community, continuing a local vocation that included two-year stints as chaplain and president at Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St. Those believers lost a great friend Feb. 2, when a heart See JAKOWS page 8

Minus divine intervention, he and the students at Messiah Dance Works Productions Inc. will need to leave their location at the old St. Charles Borromeo School building, 2019 Montrose St., by month’s end. Their departure will mark the end of

their nine-year use of the building, which became available when the Archdiocese of Philadelphia closed the South of South elementary school. It also will lead Wilkins, of 22nd and Oakford streets, to look for a third home for the group he founded in 1989. Occupying the third floor, Messiah consists of three dance companies and a dance school, offering numerous classes for about 50 students. Wilkins’ brainchild, which acquired nonprofit status in 2002, exposes adults

and youths to creative and performing arts, assisting mostly residents of lowincome households. Most students are on scholarship, with the rest paying nominal fees. More involved in managing and producing shows, Wilkins teaches tap there but also gives instruction in African dance and drumming at the South Philadelphia Talent Center at Charles Y.

To the Editor: I am a resident of South Philly, a weekly reader of the Review and a Philadelphia teacher. I am writing to tell you how much I enjoyed (“A berth in the rebirth,” Feb. 10) because it provided specifics about the Renaissance schools including information from the district, principals and a volunteer with a community group, which made the article fair and balanced. I particularly liked the specific information about each kind of school. As a teacher, even, I didn’t understand these differences until I read the article. I have a suggestion for another article: Finding out how the Promise Academies are actually functioning. I have heard nothing positive from my colleagues and friends who work at these schools. Instead, I’ve heard these schools are full of very inexperienced teachers who are being harassed and held to very high standards. Since there are few experienced teachers at these schools, younger teachers have no one to mentor them. In fact, one friend told me the experienced teachers at her school were openly hostile to her. I cannot see how this atmosphere can improve learning. Since I know that many teachers are not able to comment for fear of losing their jobs, many would share information if you didn’t publish their names. Parents may be willing to talk about their experiences with Promise Academies. It is not clear where the money for these schools is coming from when the district has such a hard deficit for next year. I am not in favor of these reforms, and I am tired of the propaganda put out by the district about these schools being such a good idea. I agree with the statement by Helen Gym “that change needs to be ... sustainable, not just dramatic.” I think the district keeps throwing out the baby with the bathwater every few years instead of concentrating on the real ways of improving education in Philadelphia. Jennifer Pour South Philadelphia

Don’t roll the dice To the Editor: Whether its housed in a big bland box, a once-noble ocean liner or the most elegant building in the city, we

do not want a corrupting predatory gambling casino in the heart of our safe stable neighborhood. Blight, gridlock, increased crime, addiction, foreclosure, divorce and suicide rates and even more political corruption follow casinos. Hardly things to wish on anyone or on any city. Bravo to those struggling to preserve the SS United States (“Ahoy, mates!, Feb.10). Beware to them too. They should not sully the name of the beautiful ship and its illustrious history by touting it as a casino site. They need friends in their endeavor not energetic, organized opposition from those of us up and down the river and across the city who have fought long and hard to preserve our neighborhoods from the casino threat. Let them find benign and edifying uses for the ship so that their efforts will gain even more momentum and the ship can continue to serve as an example of what is best about America. Mary O. Reinhart South Philadelphia

East vs. west To the Editor: I hope that whichever politician lives on the west side of Broad Street has either been voted out or has decided to retire. I now hope any new politicians voted in live on the east side of Broad so I can now make our side eligible to park our cars wherever we feel like, including doubleand triple-parking, angle in and out and blocking small streets. They can probably park their vehicles in their house if they wanted to. As a resident of the east side of Broad, I am tired of the constant tickets I find on my car and those of family friends and neighbors in the area near the Review. In case the Review hasn’t noticed, there has been construction outside that area for almost a year. This has left families on those blocks scrambling to find spots elsewhere (in front of my house) and heaven forbid there is a handicapped person in one of those homes, I don’t know what they do. I know that looking for parking is part of the South Philadelphia culture, but now it takes me about 45 minutes to find a spot at night, and if my car is a little to close to the corner, bam, there is a ticket.

Give us a break with the tickets. I would love to see statistics from the City on how many parking tickets are given in on the east side as opposed to the west side. C. Nicolai South Philadelphia

hough I aspire to greatness, it seems Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day has me in love with thoughts of mediocrity. The Philliesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; pitchers and catchers reported to spring training yesterday, and how I wish I were in line for the fifth starter position! Imagine the lack of pressure the holder of this title, likely Joe Blanton, will hold this season. Nobody will expect the hurler to reach double figures in wins. In fact, who will notice if he even hits triple digits in innings? With Roy Halladay, Cliff Lee, Roy Oswalt and Cole Hamels in front of him, the fifth starter will have fewer expectations than Cleveland Cavaliersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; fans. Send me out every fifth day to earn the bare-minimum salary. I might even for-

sake payment just to fraternize with the four aces. My position would certainly be among the least troubling. It would certainly be less stressing than what Jerry Sloan went through in Utah. That poor guy had me thinking the Jazz would make the NBA Finals this year. I thought I had given up on fairy tales. Maybe I will coax him down to Florida to enjoy his retirement. Throwing my off-speed junk would not tax me as much as the Miami Heatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s futile attempts to beat the Boston Celtics do the Sunshine Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s faithful. I would need nobody to root for me, setting me far above Tiger Woods, who is sliding down the golf rankings with as much rapidity as when he took down his pants in his many affairs. Even the Sixers would have more eyes watching. I would only stimulate remote controls and runs to concession stands. I could be for the economy what President Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stimulus plan has not. My fastballs would have children giving up on Santa Claus, as I would be the chief gift giver in their lives. ... SPR

Police Report

Ex-Marconi pastor accused of abuse

A grand jury report that netted five arrests included claims that the former head of St. Richard molested boys at another church. By Amanda L. Snyder Review Managing Editor

he District Attorney’s Office released a grand jury report Feb. 10 that resulted in the arrests of three priests, a Catholic schoolteacher and the former Archdiocese of Philadelphia secretary of the clergy. The report also revealed 41 priests have remained in ministry since 2005 even after sexual abuse accusations were made against them. Rev. Joseph J. Gallagher, who served as the pastor of St. Richard of Chichester for 16 years before retiring in 2006, had two accusations of abuse that went before the Archdiocesan Review Board, but were found to be unsupported. Following the issuance of the report, Cardinal Justin Rigali said in a statement sent to all the parishes “… I assure all the faithful that there are no archdiocesan priests in ministry today who have an admitted or established allegation of sexual abuse of a minor against them.” Yesterday the Archdiocese announced it will reexamine the cases and has placed three accused priests including Gallagher on administrative leave pending the outcome of the review. Gallagher was appointed as St. Richard’s administrator in May 1990 while Father William Mooney was recovering from an illness, according to St. Richard’s website. Following Mooney’s death five months later, Gallagher became the parish’s sixth pastor. During his tenure, he established the Feast of St. Lucy caroling and the St. Joseph Triduum celebration, and led the church in its 75th anniversary. Decades earlier, he had been accused of groping boys at a Bristol-based church. Although Gallagher has not been charged with any wrongdoing, a 44-yearold reported in 2006 to an Archdiocese assistance coordinator that Gallagher had touched him inappropriately during a second grade field trip and allegedly questioned him about masturbation during confession. The review board estimated the man would have been in second grade in 1969, but Gallagher did not work at the parish until the next year, according to the report.

“Therefore, ruled the board, the man must not be telling the truth,” according to the report. “Apparently there was no possibility that, after almost four decades, the victim could have been off by a few months about the date, but still right about the conduct.” In 2007, the Archdiocese received another complaint against Gallagher, according to the report, which alleged he molested a 36-year-old when the man was an alter boy at a Bristol-based church. Gallagher allegedly fondled the boy in his car, at his mother’s home, upstairs in the rectory, in a sacristy utility room and in a church loft; discussed masturbation during confession; and hit the boy for not obliging to a sexual request, according to the report. The man provided names of other alter boys to corroborate his story, but none of them admitted to being abused although a few did recall Gallagher allegedly questioning them if they had problems masturbating. When the review board interviewed Gallagher, he denied the allegations with statements such as “I have no picture of that,” “I can’t say it happened” and “I’m right to the best of my knowledge,” according to the report. The board found this accusation unsubstantiated and Rigali accepted the board’s findings July 3, ’08, according to the report. Three weeks later, the man allegedly abused was informed of the decision. “The man killed himself shortly after the board’s decision,” according to the report. The coordinator’s checked in with the man’s mother in 2009. The coordinator’s notes indicated, “She keeps questioning why. He was really hurt when the [Archdiocese of Philadelphia] did not substantiate the charges. He had so many disappointments in his life.” The grand jury has recommended the Archdiocese revamp its victim assistance measures and practices for removing those accused of molestation. The Archdiocese has already made a few changes in response to the report. Rigali said in a statement yesterday that the Arcdiocese will work to “recognize where we have fallen short and to let our actions speak to our resolve.” “The Grand Jury Report makes clear that for as much as the Archdiocese has done

Police Report to address child sexual abuse, there is still much to do,” he said. District Attorney Seth Williams commended the Archdiocese’s actions yesterday. “The cardinal’s strong words and recent efforts are the correct steps at this time,” he said. “I will continue my commitment to working with him to protect our children.” Victims of sexual abused by a clergy member may call the District Attorney’s Office at 215-686-8783 or e-mail da.victimservices@phila.gov.

Point Breeze fugitive wanted An area man supposedly vowed to turn himself in to authorities for a 12-year-old murder after a warrant was issued a few months ago. The Point Breeze man remains on the loose. Amar Greene, 32, is wanted for a 1999 homicide, said Deputy Robert Clark of the U.S. Marshals Service’s Eastern Pennsylvania Violent Crimes Fugitive Task Force, which is offering a $1,500 reward for information leading to his arrest. When the warrant was issued in November authorities contacted Greene, whose Amar Greene last known address is on the 1700 block of Reed Street, and he promised to turn himself in, but has since averted police. Luther Johnson, 21, of the 1600 block of South 18th Street, was pronounced dead at the scene after receiving multiple gunshot wounds July 23, 1999, according to police at the time of the incident. Greene is 5-foot-8, 180 pounds with black hair and brown eyes. To report information, call the U.S. Marshals Service’s 24-hour tip line at 866865-8477. SPR Contact Managing Editor Amanda L.

An eight-and-a-half-month pregnant woman gave birth hours after being assaulted in a Point Breeze road rage incident, although her doctors did not attribute her giving birth to the attack. The 35-year-old expecting mother was in her vehicle with her right turn signal on at a red light on the 1100 block of South 20th Street, Detective Danielle Tolliver said. Since there was a “No Turn On Red” sign, she waited before turning on to Washington Avenue. However, behind her in a 1999 blue Chevy Suburban, Keith Duncan, 46, and Saundra Harper, 44, both of the 900 block of South 23rd Street, allegedly beeped the car horn and yelled profanities at her, Tolliver said. When she finally turned, the Suburban is believed to have followed with its occupant throwing things at her auto. Scared the SUV was trailing her, she turned the wrong way down 18th Street,

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I february 17, 2011

Two men were critically shot with a West Passyunk man becoming the first South Philly homicide fatality of 2011. Police were called to the 1500 block of South Garnet Street for a shooting at 3:27 p.m. Sunday when they discovered Paul Berry, 31, of the 2000 block of South 24th Street, and another 31-year-old man were wounded, Officer Tanya Little of the Police Public Affairs Unit said. Berry, who was suffering from multiple gunshot wounds to the chest and groin, was transported to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in critical condition, and was pronounced dead about 25 minutes later, Little said. The other man received several wounds to both of his legs and was transported to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in critical condition. Police did not have any suspects or a motive as of press time, according to Little and Homicide Sgt. Frank Hayes. To report information, call Homicide Division at 215-686-3334.

but a car was coming up the block in the other direction, Duncan allegedly got out of his car and punched the woman’s driver’s side window causing it to shatter, Tolliver said. Duncan reportedly punched her in the side of the head while she was in the vehicle and again after she stepped out of the car. When she tried to write down the Suburban’s license plate number, Harper allegedly also punched her in the head. When a bystander, who had the car’s tag number, called police the duo reentered the Suburban and sped off north on 18th Street, Tolliver said. The police traced the car to Duncan, and caught him and Harper prior to entering their South of South home. They were identified as the alleged offenders, arrested and charged with aggravated assult, criminal mischief and related offenses. The woman received small cuts to her face, neck and hands, a bruise on her left tricep and bumps on her head, Tolliver said.

MESSIAH DANCE continued from page 1 the building’s only tenant, learned in July the Archdiocese would be selling the entire space. “I am appreciative that St. Charles let us use the space,” Wilkins, who signed a year-to-year lease with the church, 20th and Christian streets, when he relocated operations from the Marian Anderson Recreation Center, 740 S. 17th St., said. An associate minister at the Tasker Street Baptist Church, 2010 Tasker St., Wilkins uses Revelation 21:7, which states, “He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God, and he will be my son,” as his life scripture. “Having to leave here will just be something I will need to overcome,” he said. Seeking a new location, he uses his current one Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Saturday mornings and early afternoons. He used to offer daily classes, but the Archdiocese’s announcement led to his voluntarily reducing the offerings in September. His space contains a costume area, a multi-purpose room and two studios, all of which once served as classrooms. “From what I have heard, the Archdiocese feels it can make money off the build-

CHRISTIANITY, ISLAM AND Judaism all employ the term “Messiah.” Because of its far-reaching scope, Wilkins uses it only as an homage to his Christian faith, admitting students of any faith background. For him,

dance makes use of the skills his creator gave him. “God did not give me this gift to sit on it,” the soft-spoken artist said. He began Messiah as part of a summer camp at the Borromeo building and has kept it operating through tuition, his own money and various grants. Owing to their reputations, Wilkins and his charges have performed around the world, including trips to Brazil, Costa Rica, Mexico, Nigeria and the Republic of Georgia in the former Soviet Union, with fundraisers covering the costs. Other notable accomplishments include hosting an African jazz workshop during July 31’s National Dance Day and making 10 appearances at the Odunde Festival, a celebration of African culture, at 23rd and South streets, and lending their talents to concerts and festivals at Community College of Philadelphia. All of the learners must take ballet and modern classes, with performances fusing the disciplines with jazz. Over the last 22 years, Wilkins has sought to give each pupil a comforting environment for expression. Though upsetting, their impending exit does not dishearten Wilkins, who feels Messiah will somehow continue. He has begun to look for space but has received no guarantees.

“I am not concerned about size,” Wilkins said. “Our new space could have room for just one studio, and I would be fine with that. I just want to continue what I feel is a great training entity for the next regime of artists.” A communal identity has helped Messiah to thrive, especially in its nine-year stint at its current building. In exchange for lessons for their children, many parents have assisted in costume design and the construction of the studios’ raised plywood floors. A clinical social worker, Wilkins has provided assistance to struggling families. Monique Johnson, of the 2200 block of South Beechwood Street, has taken lessons at Messiah for a little more than three years, and her children, Travon Miner, 8, and Monisha Johnson, 16, have been attendees for just over two years. “Kids love it here,” the modern dance specialist said. Her children especially enjoy the quick trek to the locale, where Travon takes African, ballet, hip-hop and tap classes and Monisha excels in her African, ballet, jazz and modern lessons. “I love having the school in this area. It is family-oriented and parents trust that their children will receive great instruction

ing. I have learned from St. Charles that the sale is imminent,” Wilkins, who has heard that condominiums will replace the space, said. “I hope it can become some sort of school.” Desiring for the space to retain its educational identity reveals much about him and his commitment to urban growth through the arts. A graduate of the Philadelphia High School for Creative and Performing Arts, 901 S. Broad St., he developed an interest in dance at age 12, eventually gaining training in numerous disciplines. “When I was growing up, there was no real place for effective instruction, so I figured I would house something in the community,” Wilkins said. He grew up on the 2100 block of Christian street, so the move to the school building was a natural fit for his plan to instruct. “It is so easy to help these students because they are passionate,” he said, adding that he has derived pride from transforming learners with minimal experience into accomplished, confident artists.

Two Pennsport brothers have formed a new group that plays classics with old world flair and a little bit of rock ‘n’ roll. By Jess Fuerst Review Contributor

ne kid playing the drums is enough. In the Gallagher household, there very well could have been seven. “I have six brothers and they’re all musicians. It was pretty amazing growing up in that house. I’m sure our neighbors didn’t like it too much,” Kevin Gallagher, of Front and Fitzgerald streets, said. “We all went off in different directions.” Recently, however, three of their paths re-intersected as Kevin, older brother Michael and younger brother Chris formed the Christopher Grand Quartet. The foursome, rounded out by pianist (and non-relative) Julian Horner, features Kevin on bass, Michael on drums and Christopher on vocals. “It’s great. It’s interesting. We’re very candid with one another,” Chris, who lives a stone’s throw from his kin at Front and Ritner streets, said of playing with his family. “One second we’re kissing and hugging, the next there is a fistfight in the living room. It’s very reminiscent of childhood, as well.” The Quartet that covers the American Songbook classics has been together for a little more than a year. As the band continues to fine-tune its sound, the quartet has been treating locals to some live tastes at Penn’s Landing’s La Veranda Ristorante, The Italian eatery hosted the group’s first gig in November and will feature the band

It’s become our home base now. People hear about it and want to come check us out.” The brothers, who have spent nearly 30 years cutting their teeth in various bands, have found their stride with the Quartet. Former rock ‘n’ roll musicians, the group imbues classics with a little punk-rock swagger. “People see us and think, ‘What are these guys gunna do?’ We’re swinging Sinatra songs, but in our own style. We’re bringing it to this century and giving it our own flavor,” Kevin said. “We notice we’re getting a lot of the younger crowd in to it now. We’re punk rock going up there and completely swinging out this kind of old music they’ve heard before. But not like this.” In the same vein, the group is making its show at La Veranda a night out reminiscent of South Philly’s former supper clubs.

Saturday, they are thankful to play the music they love among friends and family. “Absolutely, it was terribly important for us [to perform near home]. For so many years people have been asking me … ‘When are you are going to do this?’ ‘Stop doing the rock-and-roll nonsense.’ and ‘when are you going to do the American Songbook and the standards?’ and so forth.” Chris, who studied opera and jazz with local mentor Harold Singer, said. “My family and all my friends [are here]. It was natural, perfect positioning and the venue couldn’t be better.” The group is continuing to gain momentum, although the brothers know they are still nursing the beginnings of “organic, cool, infantile stages,” Chris said. Now that they have begun finding their voice, they plan to lay down a record in the coming month to use for promotion. “This is what I want to do,” Chris said. “I’m going to continue to sink my teeth in to singing and this is what I want to do, so we are steaming ahead and everything looks bright and fantastic.” SPR

Our infatuation with the Chinese

Ronald (Isiah Whitlock Jr.), left to right, Tim (Ed Helms), Joan (Anne Heche) and Dean (John C. Reily) bond at a Cedar Rapids insurance convention.

By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

oth fitting and breaking its mold, the out-of-competition Sundance selection “Cedar Rapids” is an indie comedy that brings winning distinction to story conventions as overdone as Clark Griswold’s Christmas goose. It has the trappings of both the underdog tale and the fish-out-of-water giggler, with “Hangover” and “Office” favorite Ed Helms playing a dweeby xenophobe who finally becomes a vertebrate when he leaves his safety zone. The perks? Truly funny characters with memorable, lovable idiosyncrasies; the built-in appeal of a rarefied world; and a keen sense of humor that’s always strong, but never pushy. Helms’s dweeb, Tim Lippe, is an insurance salesman from Middleofnowhereville who’s without a lick of travel experience when he’s asked to head to an insurance convention in place of his agency’s top performer, a closet freak who died from auto-erotic asphyxiation. The cheap and easy impetus for Tim’s departure suggests small returns, but matters hit a major upswing when he lands in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, the site of the annual agent assemblage. His colorful company for the weekend includes a fellow man-boy with yelling and drinking problems (John C. Reilly), a roommate as square as CheezIts (Isiah Whitlock Jr.) and a tough dame escaping her domesticity (Anne Heche). All will distract, then help, Tim as he aims to win his agency a major award for the fourth year running. Tim’s unflinching earnestness, set against Middle-Americana, has the unmistakable whiff of Alexander Payne, so it’s no surprise to learn the “Sideways” helmer co-produced. He’s part of a team that also

includes director Miguel Arteta and screenwriter Phil Johnston, who on top of penning some hugely entertaining sequences (scavenger hunt!), taps into a very honest, 40-ish workaday melancholy and distributes it uniquely among four very different, if archetypal, characters. It’s a nice contrast to, say, the uncorked boisterousness of Reilly, who’s never been funnier. As the hero, everyman Helms takes the opposite approach. His performance is stealth and deftly unassuming. It isn’t until the end that you realize just how much you want dweeby Tim to succeed.

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I february 17, 2011

few months ago when the National Football League postponed the Eagles’ game because of an impending snowstorm, then-Gov. Ed Rendell said, “If this was in China, do you think the Chinese would have called off the game? People would have been marching down to the stadium. They would have walked and they would have been doing calculus on the way down.” Memo to Rendell: The last time the Chinese attempted such a march was when Mao led the way. In fact, it is open to question whether the Chinese would have bothered wasting their time marching in the snow to see pro football when there was a perfectly good ping-pong match closer to home. But Rendell’s much quoted comment is typical of our infatuation with all things China. Americans have built a myth around the superiority of this Chinese super-race that will gobble us up if we don’t get tough. Even the president succumbed to the idea in his State of the Union speech calling it “our Sputnik moment,” but we all know it isn’t the Russians we fear anymore. Watch a morning show and chances are you will see Amy Chua, author and selfproclaimed “Tiger Mom,” who is noted for her raising super-achieving children. According to Chua, if you want your kids to be No. 1 in their class, you must forbid them to attend sleepovers or play dates, waste their time in a school play, watch any TV, get any grade less than an A, not be the No. 1 student in any class except for gym or drama and play any instrument other than a piano or violin (sorry, Charlie Parker). You would think Americans would laugh off this demonic parenting style, especially at a time when the suicide rate appears to be going up in the nation’s elite schools. You would be wrong. Beneath our boastful image and our vows of American “exceptionalism,” we are as insecure as an actor on a high-wire in the Broadway version of “Spider-Man.” We are so sure China is the source of all wisdom that if it were to invade Taiwan tomorrow, our very own China lobby would be marveling that it did it, despite a howling snowstorm, while doing calculus in the middle of the invasion. We went through something very similar about 20 years ago when it was Japan that was going to eclipse us. Remember our fear of the Japanese buying up Ameri-

can property? We were sure that before long, the Statue of Liberty would be eating a seaweed salad for breakfast. We were enamored with Japan’s grasp of economics, management style and the Japanese’s ability to produce products free from defects (this was before the multiple Toyota recalls). We were almost ready to kneel down and praise our employers if it would only help us to stave off the economic threat from Japan. Then Japan went into a period of economic stagnation and became yesterday’s news. Japan has been replaced in our psyche by China. Before we lose sleep over the threat of competition from China, we ought to ask ourselves do we really want to be like the real China and not the mythic giant we helped create? Do we really want to raise kids who are so focused on super-achievement that they must be forbidden from playing a trumpet? Do we want to emulate a nation so homophobic that 80 percent of its gay adults enter straight marriages, according to “The Daily Dish”? Sure there is great promise in China as it struggles to emerge from its dark night of communism, but it is still a one-party dictatorship. Its safety standards are so poor you can’t trust that their toys don’t have lead content. China is so oriented toward male babies that sex selection abortions are not unusual. There is no real safety net; no social security and a lack of health care coverage. Although more dissent is allowed than in the past, we are not far removed from the slaughter in Tiananmen Square to forget about the tanks rolling over students. The Chinese media are censored. Corruption is rampant. Even with great strides, industrial pollution takes a backseat to economic expansion. Much of China’s economic success is because the government shamelessly manipulates their currency. As Eric Lotke wrote in “The Huffington Post,” by manipulating the Yuan, the Chinese defy the laws of monetary physics. They make American imports of Chinese goods artificially cheap and give American companies opening factories in China an artificial subsidy. It is not over the top to claim, as did Paul Krugman of “The New York Times,” that China’s monetary policy has aggravated the ability of the rest of the world to dig out of its economic hole. To date, China has feigned cooperation, but in reality has done nothing to heed the pleas of President Obama to stop playing this shell game with their currency. It is not China bashing to point these things out, but balancing the propaganda that seems to make Americans feel that in order to compete, we must totally emulate the Chinese. I’m starting a movement: The heck with the “Tiger Mom,” let your kid play that horn. SPR .

Honor the birthdays of Lincoln and Washington by serving foods made popular in their native states. Here are a few ideas from David Rosengarten’s ‘It’s All American Food.’

By Phyllis Stein-Novack Food Columnist

Ingredients:

4 hot dogs 4 hot dog buns Prepared yellow mustard

Note: Rosengarten writes “the two trickiest ingredients to reproduce at home are the buns and the peppers. The proper bun is a standard hot dog bun, but it has poppy seeds on the outside. You can make a facsimile at home by steaming the bun and, while it is still warm, sprinkling poppy seeds on the exterior. The peppers are known in Chicago as sport peppers. They are dark green, pickled and quite hot — all qualities easy to find in a bottled pepper. But they are also short and narrow, which means that in Chicago you can toss a few of them on your bun. It won’t be exactly the same, but in a pinch, you could put strips of pickled jalapeno on your Chicago hot dog.”

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon of garlic, ﬁnely minced 1 tablespoon of onion, ﬁnely minced 1/2 stick of butter 2 cups of water 2 cups of milk 1 cup of yellow stone-ground grits (not instant) 4 ounces of cream cheese, at room temperature 1 1/4 cups of cheddar, grated 3 tablespoons of fresh chives, chopped 1 teaspoon of salt 1 teaspoon of pepper

Directions: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. In a large saucepan over medium heat sweat the garlic and onion with 3 tablespoons of the butter for two minutes (make sure they don’t brown or burn). Add the water, milk and salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to moderate so the liquid comes down to a simmer. Pour in the grits by the handful in a thin stream very slowly, stirring constantly with a whisk to prevent lumps. Keep the mixture at a bare simmer and stir constantly with a wooden spoon. Cook the grits stirring constantly. The grits will thicken considerably while cooking. Remove from the heat and add the cream cheese, 3/4 cup of the cheddar and 2 tablespoons of the chives. Season to taste with the salt and pepper. Smear the remaining butter evenly into a

small baking dish that just holds the grits. Place the grits in the dish and top with the remaining cheddar. Place the grits on the center rack of the oven and cook for 10 minutes. Remove and sprinkle with the remaining chives. Serves six.

■ Bourbon Sauce ■ Ingredients:

2 sticks of unsalted butter 1 cup of sugar 2 cups of heavy cream 1/2 cup of bourbon

Directions: Melt the butter with the sugar in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly. Cook and stir until the mixture turns a rich golden caramel. Heat the cream in another saucepan until small bubbles appear around the edges. Slowly whisk the cream into the butter/sugar mixture. If the mixture hardens, continue to whisk until it becomes smooth again. Remove from the heat and add the bourbon. Stir well. Makes 3 cups. Note from Phyllis: Bourbon sauce is delicious on bread pudding, ice cream or pound cake. It reheats well in the microwave after it has been refrigerated.

■ The Chicago Hot Dog ■

Directions: Steam or grill the hot dogs. Steam the buns. Place the dogs on the buns and slather with the mustard. Top the dogs with the relish, tomatoes, peppers, onion, cucumbers and pickle. Some ingredients fit best alongside the dog. Serve immediately. Serves four.

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I february 17, 2011

onday is President’s Day and Americans will celebrate the birthdays of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. Our first president was a gentleman/general from Virginia. Although born in Kentucky, Lincoln made his name in Illinois. Culinary wise, these states could not be more disparate. The Commonwealth of Virginia is steeped in a reverence for Southern cuisine with strong British and French influences. Thomas Jefferson had a lot to do with it. Our third president was a writer, fiddler, diplomat and farmer. Tour Monticello and you will see how dedicated he was to agriculture. Illinois, “City of the Big Shoulders,” was famous early on for its meat packing. In modern times, there is nothing better than a Chicago hot dog. Let’s celebrate American foods on President’s Day, specifically tasty dishes from Virginia and Illinois. All recipes are from “It’s All American Food” by David Rosengarten.

Bright green sweet relish Tomato, thinly sliced Green pickled peppers Onion, chopped 4 long thin cucumber spears, peeled 4 long thin slices of dill pickle Celery salt

The Toque Stops Here Restaurant Review:

Numa By Phyllis Stein-Novack R e s ta u r a n t R e v i e w e r

y sister Sandy is starting to scare me. She absolutely refused to try sushi for years and would say “yilch” every time I told her I love Japanese food. Finally, after seeing the film “In Her Shoes,” where a couple fall in love over sushi, she decided to try it. “No eel, no octopus,” she said emphatically. I took her to lunch at Zama and on the way home we happened upon Numa, a new Japanese restaurant one block away. I walked in and brought home a menu. Numa has been open for a few months. I visited three times and the bi-level restaurant was almost totally booked. Banquets line one wall, the lighting is perfect and so is the music on the sound system. The acoustics are just right so no one has to raise their voice during conversation. I sat at the sushi bar and sipped on a complimentary tea. The chef helped me decide on my lunch. Miso soup comes with the lunch specials. You can get the soup on the spicy side and I did just that. It was a bit too hot, so my server calmed it down. I ordered the sushi sampler ($10), which I thoroughly enjoyed. I’ve eaten escolar cooked, but never as sushi. It was light and flavorful. My platter included tuna, salmon, red snapper, local fluke from the Jersey waters and a few California rolls. Although I substituted the escolar for the shrimp, the chef wanted me to taste it. Sometimes sushi rice can be gummy, but the chefs know how to make Coffee/Café/Sweets

it right at Numa. On my second visit, the server remembered I like lemon in my tea. I did not have to ask — she brought me a plate with several lemon slices. I nibbled on a big bowl of slightly salted edamame ($5) and decided to try shumai ($5). The bite-sized dumplings were filled with shrimp and whetted my appetite for spicy, crunchy tuna rolls ($7). They were prepared with immaculately fresh tuna, avocado, cucumber, wrapped in crunchy tempura and served with a spicy sauce. I happily crunched away and cleaned my plate. My friend Marissa, who is the public relations manager for the Pennsylvania Ballet, had a birthday recently and I wanted to treat her to a celebratory lunch. We toasted with steaming cups of tea (the lemon slices appeared again) and discussed birthdays, the upcoming run of “Swan Lake” and what it is like to have a twin brother. Marissa ordered the sampler and I tried the ton katsu bento box ($9). Our server told us the protein would be crispy strips of boneless pork. We enjoyed the miso soup and the rest of our meal. The bento box is an Asian version of the all-American TV dinner, but not frozen. Each compartment contained immaculately fresh and tasty ingredients. The pork was outrageously delicious. I love the ginger salad dressing Japanese restaurants use on simple greens. Slices of sweet potato were prepared in tempura, crispy

outside, slightly creamy inside. The box also contained a few California rolls and white rice. Service on all visits was courteous and friendly. Our water glasses and tea cups were filled because the servers watched the tables. Numa is now one of my favorite places for Japanese fare. I like the all-day/allnight menu at very moderate prices. Each fish I sampled was fresh from the sea. Fried foods were totally free of grease. The vegetables in the rolls and salads were cool and crisp. Every ingredient was handled with care. My sister Sandy will be visiting in a few

weeks. I’m taking her to Numa. She’ll nix the eel and octopus, but I won’t. Numa serves beer, wine and sake. Maybe I can get her to try a warm cup of sake with our meal. Three tips of the toque to Numa. SPR

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18): A group outside the usual clique is impressed with your accomplishments. Spend time with individuals who appreciate your unique way of doing things. This validates a new direction. Lucky number: 823. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20): You may be compelled to take an aggressive position in the group’s dealings. Perhaps you’re frustrated with a lack of progress. Discuss with a neutral person before alienating everyone. Lucky number: 672. ARIES (March 21 to April 20): Visit an eccentric friend whose lifestyle differs from yours. The usual crowd will inspire yawns and a yearning to be somewhere else. This person introduces you to a new activity or interest. Lucky number: 505. TAURUS (April 21 to May 20): A battle with a business partner or collaborator sets you back. A working situation could become impossible because of a bad mood. If matters need to be discussed, wait until you are less emotional. Lucky number: 028. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20): An expert or new boss enters the professional sphere and shakes things up. This person may introduce a novel way of doing things, perhaps involving more up-to-date technology. Lucky number: 434. CANCER (June 21 to July 22): Something percolating inside you needs to be expressed in your career. It could make work a lot more exciting. Lucky number: 153. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22): If you aren’t in touch with a sensitive spot, someone from another culture could unintentionally offend you. Wait a while to figure out whether or not this person was acting out of spite. Lucky number: 742. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22): A surprise gift or money could come and used to jazz up living space. Increase income by selling a personal possession. Consider a possible home businesses. Lucky number: 369. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22): You may not take kindly to a family member who tries to control the household. Putting energy into an exhausting activity could help until you can muster support to challenge this person. Lucky number: 233. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21): You may be harboring a secret yearning for a certain object. Take a leap and acquire it. It differs from usual purchases. Lucky number: 151. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21): You may feel out of your league with a certain clique tonight. Personal values are skewed; hang out with people who appreciate you for who you are. Lucky number: 986. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19): Being passed up for a project may cause outrage. You might impulsively contact an authority figure to express anger. Discuss your position by backing it up with examples of abilities. Lucky number: 187. SPR

Don’t think of him as gone away life holds so many facets this earth is only one. Just think of him as resting from a place of warmth and comfort Think how he must be wising that we could know, today, how nothing but our sadness can really pass away. And think of him as living in our hearts of those he touched... for nothing loved is ever lost and he was loved so much.

When you awake in the morning hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circling flight. I am the soft star shine at night. Do not Stand by my grave and cry I am no there... I DID NOT DIE.

Missing You, Love Always, Mom & Dad, Darlene, Brian & Jason

has passed and even though our heartache is still fresh it feels like forever since we have been together. A light from the family is gone. A voice we loved is stilled. A place is vacant in the home which never can be filled. We miss you so much, wish you were here with us, I know you wish you were here too. many images come to mind whenever we speak your name without you in our lives things will never be the same. The goodness that you have blessed us with, the strength you given us to survive, the knowledge you shared through the way you lived your life. One thing for certain is that you continue to participate in our every act, thought and decision we make. Your love left an indelible imprint in our memories. We find some comfort in knowing that there is no more suffering, no more pain and that our lives have been enriched by having shared your love.

Forever

you will stay within our hearts, we will never forget you cherish you forever, you were amazing. Love you so much and miss you even more. Your beloved Marion,

A Passyunk Square school set a Catholic League record with a thrilling last-second win. By Joseph Myers r e v i e w s ta f f w r i t e r

Lamin Fulton, No. 32 in middle, is surrounded by his teammates after hitting the game-winning shot against St. Joe’s Prep. His Saints will begin the quest for a third-straight league championship tomorrow. P h o t o b y R o b To r n e y

tion could not stop. The Saints put more pressure on the perimeter, leaving the Prep with confused possessions and setting up fast breaks that ended either with a Fulton assist or bucket. Though momentum became the Saints’ friend, the clock was chummy with the Prep. DURING HALFTIME, ARRIGALE had mentioned his gang needed the win to show it reigns supreme in the 14-team league. The Prep played as if it were the two-time defending league champion and last year’s city and state conquerors. Fulton, who signed with New Jersey-based St. Peter’s College Nov. 10, proved, however, that how a team finishes resonates more loudly than how it begins. The 5-foot-9 Grays Ferry product blew by far taller defenders, not wanting the big night for him and fellow senior Jordan Johnson, who scored the Saints’ first two points, to end with his throng heartbroken. His team tied the game at 72-72, but the guests continued to play destiny deniers, again going up a deuce. Too proud to let history pass them by, the Saints forced another tie, but the Prep raced down the court

man Catholic High School, which won 49 straight from 1989-’92. Fulton and sophomore forward John Davis continued to penetrate, but whenever they and their teammates scored, the Prep answered. The frame’s frenetic pace kept more than the players’ hearts pounding, as each team’s fans seemed to wage battles over whose cheers were more deafening. The Prep soon turned cheers for the Saints into groans, building a 14-point cushion near the end of the quarter. The home squad narrowed the gap to 60-49 as the period ended. Facing the prospect of suffering their first Catholic League regular season or playoff setback since losing a 2008 playoff game to Monsignor Bonner, the Saints began to defend like dams. The teams again matched baskets early on, but the perimeter game began to shift in favor of Arrigale’s players, especially Fulton and junior guard Billy Shank, who finished with 11 points. Fulton, a resident of the 1300 block of South 29th Street, also activated his legs for a few close attempts that the opposi-

t. Joe’s Prep knocked down the game’s first three-pointer, but Neumann-Goretti senior guard Lamin Fulton made sure the last one sent his team’s supporters home happy. In a riveting Friday contest, the Saints, 1736 S. 10th St., escaped with a 77-74 victory on Fulton’s buzzer-beating swish, giving them a record-setting 50th straight against Catholic League foes. The early stages of the senior night duel likely had few, even the plentiful Prep followers, believing the outcome would yield such drama. The Saints’ quickness and offensive rebounding stifled the Hawks, prompting their legendary coach, William “Speedy” Morris, to call a timeout after only three minutes. Coach Carl Arrigale’s bunch led 19-14 after eight minutes, though their opponents ended the quarter by showing off what would thwart the Saints for most of the night — venomous long-distance shooting. While the home team muscled inside for buckets, the resilient visitors made the perimeter their playground in the second quarter. Too many open looks gifted them a 37-32 intermission edge, though the fivepoint deficit did not rattle the experienced Passyunk Square hoopsters. In his 13th year helming the school, Arrigale spent the break divulging observations about his team’s spotty effort. “There cannot be a lack of communication on defense,” he said of eliminating uncontested attempts. Citing the Prep’s lack of an interior presence, he noted his players would have to swarm the outside to produce turnovers and awkward shots. “‘They should be blowing us out,’” he said of the visitors’ 56 percent field goal accuracy, “but we’re still in it. If we defend, they can’t keep this up. You let them get comfortable in your gym. Go out, and let it all hang out.’” The Hawks’ comfort level increased in the third quarter, as more three-pointers surely had the Saints’ faithful wondering if the team would have to settle for sharing the longest winning streak with Ro-

with ample time to find a great look at a winning score. Junior forward Derrick Stewart, one of four Saints at 6-foot-5, skied for a rebound, one of his nine, and called timeout with 8.3 seconds left. “Coach told me it was my night and to go for it,” Fulton said. “It” ended up being a dead-on threepointer that sent the crowd into hysterics. With the shot, Fulton matched his careerhigh for points, 30, which he set Jan. 23 in a 70-62 win against Roman. “We just had to keep our composure,” Fulton said, adding that his team had overcome a 15-point deficit against Archbishop Carroll Jan. 16, a day that produced their 42nd straight win, a 74-68 road triumph. “I play a leadership role on this team, so I definitely want the ball late in the game,” Fulton, who received chants of “MVP, MVP” after his shot, said. “The difference was the hard-nosed defense we played in the fourth,” Davis, of the 400 block of Washington Avenue, said. The 6-foot-4 Davis scored 13 points, easily slicing through the Prep’s defensive schemes for high-percentage shots. “We knew they couldn’t guard us down low, so we drove for our scores. We worked hard for this win,” he said. The three-point triumph is an anomaly in the Saints’ streak, which hit 51 Sunday with a 71-49 road win against Lansdale Catholic. The team has had only five games decided by 10 or fewer points and have amassed 32 wins by 20 or more points. Its streak consists of 19 wins in both the ’08’09 and ’09-’10 seasons and 13 so far this year. Number 52 could come in tomorrow’s home Catholic League quarterfinal contest against the league’s lowest remaining playoff seed. Tipoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. The semifinals follow on Wednesday with the winners advancing to the Feb. 28 final at the Palestra. “We teach these players to fight,” Arrigale said. “Defensively, we made adjustments and were able to chip away. Games like this show how fragile winning streaks are, but we stand all alone among this league’s best teams.” SPR
