ne of the benefits of living in a city is being exposed to a variety of different cultures and ethnicities. The South Philadelphia residents near Mifflin Square Park, Sixth and Ritner streets, celebrated the diversity of their neighborhood by hosting an event recognizing those distinctions Saturday. The newly-formed Friends of Mifflin Square presented Multicultural Day at See MULTICULTURAL DAY page 8
The tried-and-true shoes of “STOMP” performer Andre Fernandez facilitated a pulsating display of dance. Students at a local school, some in their uniforms and others in ballet gear, matched their talents with those of Fernandez and two colleagues.

melia Alexander, Erica Pezzano and Joe Suppa did not mind that their guests left their props home Feb. 17. The students at the Philadelphia Performing Arts Charter School, 2600 S. Broad St., simply enjoyed the chance to
dance, which they executed with flawless precision. Their opportunity came courtesy of a visit from a trio of dancers from “STOMP,” the 20-year-old show featuring a troupe that relies on unconventional objects to establish thumping beats. The one-hour body percussion session had the youngsters’ hands and feet duplicating rhythms from the troupe’s awardwinning act, which concluded its six-day
turn at the Merriam Theater Sunday. Alexander, a seventh grader, Pezzano and Suppa, both eighth graders, joined with roughly 60 schoolmates for the master class. In return, the elementary learners donated nine bins of food to assist their company’s STOMP Out Hunger campaign. “Shows reach out to us regularly, and we See STOMP page 12

To the Editor: What a daring and startling reminder of what can be accomplished when the will and ire of the people has been pushed too far. What is it called? I think it is something like, “When push comes to shove ...” To me, Egyptian people are heroes and set an amazing example for the rest of the world, especially to the Middle East. What has unfolded in Egypt has proven decisively that there is strength in numbers when the downtrodden and poor cause the rest of that nation to open their eyes to all the injustice, and band together into one huge and unstoppable force to overthrow a dictatorial and oppressive leadership too long in power and self-serving. Now as they enter into the stage of reformation, they must not make the mistake of emulating America — at least into what it has now become. America has fallen into the footsteps following the decline that Egypt fell into. Our leaders have disrupted the harmony, growth and productivity and led us into the sorry mess that we find ourselves in today. To our political establishment who holds our country in bondage, to the millionaires, to all the huge corporations and their secret conclaves — no country has the right to turn against its people, to take away from them the necessities of life. No country has the right to enslave and deprive of growth. They have not the right to take away their jobs and give them to others because they can make more money for themselves. They cannot deprive their people of good health and the merciful need of adequate care that will keep them healthy, active and productive because they are not wealthy. Being poor is not a crime after all. They do not have the right not to pay their fair share of taxes to the government, be they individuals, huge businesses or corporations, in order for our, government to function the way its intended. They have no right to provoke unwarranted and preventable wars that costs the lives of our young and vibrant by the thousands and only for the purpose of taking from that country all that belongs to them. Their motivation — “to the victors go the spoils,” added to all the other spoils they have stolen.
You cannot take entitlement from the people who have lost their jobs that the government and rich Republicans caused in the first place. Some of the world’s biggest revolutions were caused by the greed of the rich, as well as the deprivation and taking from the poor. I say to you, beware; you have been on a very slippery slope that has caused you to lose your footing. Do you think revolutions can’t happen here? You have with craft and underhandedness changed our country of what our forefathers had envisioned as democracy into the debacle and disaster it is in now. Give back to our country that which you so greedily took from it and give all Americans a fair shot at the democracy that was intended for all of us instead of making Americans your poor sacrificial lambs. We have all gotten wise to your time, whether you know it or not, it is fast running out. You could wind up out of work and possibly even imprisoned one day. It could happen even to you — the socalled mighty! There is much more might and strength in our huge numbers that must be reckoned with, as the government of Egypt found out the hard way. Start taking from the rich for a change. Frank Cavallaro South Philadelphia
‘To My Son, God Bless You’ (excerpt from a poem written many years ago to Rev. Ron Jakows)
Remembering a little boy at 3 years old playing in the rain. A Christmas filled with colorful toys and a big candy cane. A bloody knee at the age of 5, falling off a slide. And laughing and playing with a toy Greyhound bus, sitting by Mother’s side. The treasure that the Good Lord had in store for me came beautifully through you. He blessed my life so very much, with extra blessings too! I can only express through my smiles
and tears how grateful I really am. To have a Son like you to complete my life ... Amen. I love you, Mom Irene Jakows South Philadelphia
Her greatest accomplishment To the Editor: How refreshing to read your column on Sister Paula’s quest to honor Our Lady of Guadalupe (“Ladylike mission, Jan. 13). Her devotion in giving South Philadelphia an awesome sight of the Blessed Mother in bronze and lights is a beautiful gift to us. And many thanks to Mr. Carto for the use of his exterior wall of his place of business. Sister Paula became a real South Philadelphian when she was assigned to St. Monica’s Church. She assimilated into our ways and acquired many friends. We are fortunate to have her here in our community. Her energies are spread in many different directions. Her charitable works include selling coffee and Italian pastries at the Rittenhouse Square Flower Market event held every year to benefit four children’s charities. She devotes a lot of time to the Senatia Committee, which raised thousands of dollars for the installment of St. Monica’s elevator. And she established the American Academy of the Sacred Arts in order to help artists by displaying and helping them to sell their works and get commissions for them. She is selfless in every respect. Sister Paula’s accomplishments are many, but this may be her most important endeavor and closest to her heart. Imagine the Blessed Mother shining down on us right here on Broad Street. How wonderful! Thank you Sister Paula. You are without a doubt a nun for all seasons. Helen Rizzo South Philadelphia Comment on these letters or topics at www.southphillyreview.com/opinion/letters.

Police Report
Shooter charged
A Hawthorne man was arrested for allegedly shooting two siblings outside an Old City bar. By Amanda L. Snyder Review Managing Editor
T
he victims remain hospitalized, but police are believed to have nabbed the local suspect responsible for wounding two brothers. An altercation inside Bleu Martini, 24 S. Second St., escalated after a man and James Thompson, 27, of the 1200 block of Bainbridge Street, were kicked out of the bar 1 a.m. Sunday, Officer Tanya Little of the Police Public Affairs Unit said. The fight continued outside near the watering hole when Thompson allegedly shot the brothers — ages 29 and 33, Little said. The younger was hit three times in the abdomen while the older received a bullet to the chest. Nearby officers heard the shots and chased the alleged gunman briefly before apprehending him, Little said. Thompson was charged with firearm violations followed by two counts each of attempted murder, aggravated assault, terroristic threats, simple assault and recklessly enreview dangering another person along with one AD NAME: Grand King count of conspiracy of murder Monday.

Killed inside O.K. bar
A West Passyunk man succumbed to his injuries after being shot inside an area bar early Saturday. Mikal Grant, 31, of the 1900 block of South Woodstock Street, received multiple gunshot wounds to his torso and thigh inside Scotty’s Bar, 1420 Ellsworth St., at 1:12 a.m., Officer Jill Russell of the Police Public Affairs Unit said. He was transported to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania where he was pronounced dead three hours later. Another man was shot in the leg, Russell said. The 42-year-old was transported to Jefferson in stable condition. Police did not have a motive or any suspects as of press time. To report information, call Homicide Division at 215-686-3334.
In-transit gunfire A man was the target of violence as multiple bullets damaged his car as he cruised
along West Passyunk Avenue. Upon driving east over the bridge, a 23-year-old man saw a silver Buick Regal with tinted windows a Pennsylvania plate pull up alongside him at 5:30 p.m. Sunday on the 3000 block of West Passyunk, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. He heard gunshots strike his car four times before looking over to see the Buick’s driver pointing a gun at him before speeding off eastbound on Passyunk. The man believed he saw the same car at a Southwest Philly Gulf gas station, but never saw the driver before, Tolliver said. The man’s vehicle was hit on the driver’s side including the front fender, the front tire and the front driver’s side window twice, but he did not sustain any injuries, Tolliver said. He was unable to provide a description of the offender. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-686-3013.
Unwelcomed guests A Grays Ferry family fled its apartment Sunday afternoon after three unknown armed men made an unwelcomed entrance. As a 30-year-old was sitting in her apartment complex courtyard on the 3100 block of Wharton Street, a trio of men approached her at 4:14 p.m., Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. One put his hand over her mouth, escorted the victim inside her home and pushed her on the couch before the men roamed to the back bedroom. As the woman’s 7-year-old daughter exited the bathroom, she motioned the girl toward her and the mother and daughter ran out of the home. When the men — each armed with a handgun — reached the rear bedroom, they entered, but the 32-year-old husband, who was in the room, jumped out the window and ran through the courtyard looking for his family, Tolliver said. No one was injured and none of the family members knew any of the perpetrators, Tolliver said. The first suspect was described as black with a light complexion, age 30, 6-foot-2, 220 pounds and wearing a black jacket, black gloves and a gray knit hoody. The second man was described as black, age 25 to 30, 5-foot-9 and wearing a black cloth over his face while the remaining suspect was described as black with a dark complexion, age 25, 5-foot-7,
Police Report 160 pounds and wearing a black jacket. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-686-3013.
Teen struck by a bullet A teen was shot while strolling in the East Passyunk area last week. Walking eastbound on the 1400 block of Morris Street, an 18-year-old heard gunshots and immediately felt pain in his right leg at 7:20 p.m. Feb. 15, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The teen rushed around the corner and called police, who discovered ballistics evidence and the victim on the porch of a nearby home. The teen was transported to Jefferson in stable condition. The 18-year-old was unable to provide a description of the offender, Tolliver said. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-686-3013.
Game console stolen
Club fight
An unknown man who claimed to have accidentally taken an East Passyunk area resident’s cell phone robbed the man in his kitchen Saturday night. The 61-year-old heard his front door open and upon peering out from his bedroom he saw a man standing in his kitchen holding his cell phone at 9:12 p.m., Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The perpetrator said, “I took your cell phone by mistake” before wrestling the victim to the floor. The offender punched the man in the face with a fan and pulled $500 from his pants pocket before fleeing the dwelling on the 1700 block of South Ninth Street and running south on Ninth. The intruder was described as Hispanic, age 25, 5-foot-9, thin, cleanly shaven and wearing a black pea coat with a fur collar and a black baseball cap with a “W” on the front. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-686-3013.
Priest’s past conduct reexamined A man of the cloth has been relieved of his duties for now after an alleged inappropriate relationship between him and a teen girl resurfaced. Rev. Joseph L. Di Gregorio, a second priest with ties to the area, was named in the District Attorney’s Office Feb. 10 grand jury report. Di Gregorio remained the senior priest at Stella Maris Church, 2901 S. 10th St., until the Archdiocese of Philadelphia relieved him of his duties Feb. 16 pending another review. In 2005, a woman about age 54 accused Di Gregorio and another priest practicing at a Southwest Church of sexually assaulting her at age 16 on four occasions in the rectory and in his car, according to the report. The other priest, William Santry, allegedly admitted that the claims against him were true and believed there was a similar situation between the girl and Di Gregorio although Di Gregorio denied the charges.

Columbus Blvd., at 2:06 a.m. Monday for a report of a person with a gun, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. A 30-year-old indicated that after a fight inside with an unknown man, another man had pointed a gun at him. During their departure, that same armed man pointed the silver-colored firearm at him and others standing near the club’s entrance before fleeing southbound on Columbus in a white or silver Buick LeSabre.

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I February 24, 2011
A man broke into a local home through the back door and escaped with a trash bag full of the owner’s belongings. A 24-year-old was awoken to glass shattering at 1:30 p.m. Saturday, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. As he ran downstairs, he discovered an unknown man with a trash bag over his shoulder standing in his kitchen before fleeing out the back door in an unknown direction. The back door window was broken and his PlayStation3 — valued at $400 — was missing, Tolliver said. The offender was described as black or Hispanic with a dark complexion, age 30 to 35, 5-foot-8 to 5-foot-10, 160 pounds and wearing a black leather jacket and blue jeans.

MULTICULTURAL DAY continued from page 1
Murphy Recreation Center, Fourth and Shunk streets. The festivities, which included mini-games; arts and crafts; a large array of ethnic food and drink; and performances 1 to 4 p.m., aimed to bring the community together in celebration of diversityand spread he word out about the new park group. “Mifflin Square Park is a diverse ethnic park and people tend to be shy of other cultures,” Barbara McCabe, parks coordinator for the City of Philadelphia’s Parks and Recreation Department, said. “Multicultural Day helps to show people that the park is for everyone and helps to get people together.” The afternoon performances included elementary-aged children from The Cambodian Association of Greater Philadelphia, 2416-18 S. Seventh St., who sung a rendition of Michael Jackson’s “We Are the World,” and performed a traditional Cambodian dance. “The area is very diverse but neighborhoods are still segregated,” Sarun Chan, a member of The Cambodian Association of Greater Philadelphia, who runs Teens Organizing Proactivity, said. “Multicultural Day helps to expose people to different performances and music and get taste tests of different foods. We’re all here as Americans and it helps kids to recognize their heritage.” Some of the other participating organizations included The Southeast Philadelphia Collaborative, based at the Houston Center, 2029 S. Eighth St., Boat People SOS, 600 Washington Ave., Lower Moyamensing Civic Association, and Whitman Council. The park, which stretches a whole city block from Fifth to Sixth and Wolf to Ritner streets, is situated in Whitman, but is near some LoMo neighbors as well. “Each of these groups [hosted] a table and supplied a food and/or drink item for attendees,” Brooke Allen, who, along with Matt Migliore founded sustainADELPHIA, a local organization that hosts monthly cleanups at Mifflin Square Park, said. “The tabletops featured literature and/or activities designed to educate the attendees on the mission and involvement of each group in South Philly community programming.” Cory Miller, the collaborative’s program coordinator, was instrumental in taking the summer cleanups at the park to the next level, according to Allen. Over the spring and summer months, it helped to host healthy barbecue and fitness activities after each cleanup for the community children funded through a Philadelphia Urban Food and Fitness Alliance grant. The barbecue and activities resulted in a large

turnout, particularly with the children that use the park. “Mifflin Square Park has lots of potential but needed a little TLC,” Miller said. “The events we host focus on how to engage the community and get youth to come out. This summer, we’re hosting the uGO 5K challenge. Participants will meet every Saturday and try out different forms of fitness. The community will then compete in a 5K race.” The City’s Parks and Rec has provided the friends group with cleaning equipment to help spruce up the area and reverse bad habits. “Matt and Brooke started helping to clean the park three years ago,” McCabe said. “The park had issues with excessive dumping and graffiti. There is a spray fountain in the middle of the park that hadn’t been functioning for years. We got
that working and the kids could use it to cool off during the summertime.” Parks and Rec has been working together with the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society to help clean up local city parks for the last 15 years. The society along with collaborative and other organizations, helped sustainADELPHIA provide entertaining activities for the children after each cleanup last summer. Some of the activities included mask-making after the Halloween cleanup, having the children make their own hula-hoops, a movie night and a break-dancing demo. “sustainADELPHIA and the cleanups have helped to encourage healthy use of parks,” Jen Mahar, Philly Green’s program coordinator, said. “The kids won’t litter if they’re cleaning up the litter. And hopefully that lesson will move up the latter to their parents.”

THE FRIENDS OF Mifflin Square held its first official meeting in August with initial members and those who were already involved in organizing monthly cleanups at the park attending. Members of the friends group include community members as well as people who live outside of the neighborhood but run local nonprofits and organizations that help to support the park. One of the group’s biggest accomplishments has been continuing the monthly cleanups originally organized by sustainADELPHIA, but making them even better, Allen said. The group has helped the youth — at times more than 40 youngsters — to become excited about participating in the cleanups through the healthy barbecues and activities. Group members feel that parks help to benefit the city by being a great meeting place for neighbors to get together and a safe venue for children to play. Parks provide something to people of many different backgrounds, ethnicities, races and ages, Allen said. “For Mifflin Square Park specifically, its size and location allows it to be used by a lot of people at once,” she said. “And the immigrant Southeast Asian community living around the park use it daily for picnics, volleyball, games and just to hang out and socialize like they would in their native countries.” The Friends of Mifflin Square meet on the first Thursday of every month either in the park if the weather permits or at the Cambodian Association’s South Center.

I’ve learned that hard work, honesty and integrity make the backbone of a strong community. I’ve learned that families don’t ask for much: safe neighborhoods and good schools for their children and a growing, thriving city to call home. And I’ve learned that sometimes they need a helping hand from someone who has the power to make a difference. I love the city of Philadelphia, especially South Philly, and I’m running to take the “people’s agenda” to City Council.

News split into three sections for a partial championship dance-off. Shunning shyness, the excited talents gave their voices a chance to match their limbs, challenging one another to perform well. Their mission accomplished, they relished their adrenaline rushes and shared a brief question-and-answer period with the “STOMP” crew.
STOMP continued from page 1 do community service as a sign of our appreciation,” Angela Corosanite, the CEO and founder of the charter school said of welcoming “STOMP” for its third visit. Beaming with as much pride as the students, Corosanite took in the class in the second floor’s ballet studio, one of seven studios in the 10-year-old institute. The eager learners, all in the sixth through eighth grades, joined the class courtesy of donating and accepting Corosanite’s invitation. An expansive mirror highlighted the cavernous space, offering the thrilled throng occasions to see its active arms and legs absorbing the instruction from Donisha Brown, Andre Fernandez and Garrett Hanson. “If you can say it, you can play it,” Brown, an 11-year veteran of the troupe, which this year celebrates its 20th anniversary, said. The show’s revelry typically involves bins, brooms, pans, plastic bottles, poles, pots and trash cans, but Brown and her fellow cavorters brought only thundering boots. Brown led the determined pupils, arranged in four rows, through a series of moves that involved alternating right and left steps and spirited clapping. Fernan-
Once their legs had enjoyed enough activity, students gave their arms a workout, loading bins of food that will help underprovileged families. Performing community service as payback for master classes has become a school tradition. s ta f f p h o t o b y g r e g b e z a n i s
dez, a 14-year “STOMP” member, and Hanson, a three-year contributor, intensified the steps, provoking a mixture of fascinated and fierce faces. Giving the inhabitants below a definite post-lunch wake-up, the intense young artists had their accurate appendages ready for each instruction. The tempo impressed the professionals, whose crisp executions
spurred the students to be their competent counterparts. Each giddy participant welcomed the repetitions, especially Suppa. “We were so intense, I though we might fall through the floor,” the resident of the 1000 block of Tree Street said after catching his breath. Once he and the others had impressed the “STOMP” representatives thoroughly, they
THE 613-STUDENT SCHOOL opened in 2000, bringing to fruition Corosanite’s 30-year vision to revitalize a dwindled appreciation for the arts. Prominent shows, including “Cats,” “Evita,” “Scrooge” and “The Wizard of Oz,” have targeted the institute’s advocacy for artistic excellence, giving, according to Corosanite, 30 master classes over the decade. “We feel the arts give these children a bigger world,” Corosanite, a graduate of South Philadelphia High School, 2101 S. Broad St., said after the performance. That expanded universe begins to take shape in kindergarten, as all students receive violins, honing their skills all the way through fifth grade. At the end of the fifth grade, every student chooses a major from the school’s pool of eight specialties: Ballet: creative writing; French; innovations in science; instrumental music; music theory; visual arts; and vocal music. Once they enter their chosen discipline, the stu-

News dents begin their days with 90 minutes of instruction in it, backing the time up with rehearsal time and after-school work. Corosanite and Dr. Gail Avicolli, the school’s principal, are waiting to hear from the School District of Philadelphia about being able to duplicate their model with another school. Corosanite expects to hear news in April and noted that South Philadelphia is likely to serve as the setting for the additional space. “The arts are the glue for our children,” the metaphorically-minded head said after escorting some participants to a van where they placed the bins, which contained cereal, crackers, pasta, pudding, soup and tea. The next day, a school official transported the offerings to Philabundance, 3616 S. Galloway St., a 17-year-old advocate for the annihilation of hunger among Delaware Valley families. Having opportunities to assists others and to learn new moves from the “STOMP” triumvirate gave the students ample joy. “The moves were fun and natural for me,” the spry Alexander, a ballet major from the 1100 block of Pierce Street who takes dance and gymnastics instruction at DanceAdelphia, 1100 Snyder Ave., said of this year’s first master class for the school. “I enjoyed the time but it went too fast,” the
student council member added with a grin. Fellow ballet major Pezzano, who has seen the full “STOMP” production, routinely followed each element of the choreography, having gone in thinking the “STOMP” personnel would throw the youngsters into the mix with only minimal guidance. “I was wrong, though,” the resident of Front and Shunk streets said. “I loved the step-by-step instructions. They gave us discipline and made everything really fun and cool.” Every boy at the charter school must take ballet from kindergarten through fifth grade, so pounding the floor did not come as a shock to Suppa. “I thought the experience was great,” the visual arts major said of letting his feet replace his hands as the media for his selfexpression. The students’ receptivity to interacting with the dancers and to finding a place in the arts encourages Corosanite. “Learning has changed. We have to give three-dimensional education to our learners,” she said. “The district has asked me what our magic is. Our magic is combining the children with the arts.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview.com or ext. 124. Comment at www.southphillyreview.com/news/features.

A longtime Queen Village resident and activist gets tapped by Mayor Nutter to join the City’s Zoning Board of Adjustment. By Jess Fuerst Review Contributor
J
eff Rush moved to Old Swedes Court 30 years ago. At the time, Queen Village was not the same crowd-drawing neighborhood it’s transformed into today. “It was new construction on the east side of 95,” Rush said. “We didn’t have trash pickup or anything.” Rush took an active role in bettering the burgeoning community, eventually landing as a board member of the Queen Village Neighbors Association (QVNA) and then moving through the ranks to become the current president. His work caught the eye of Mayor Nutter and led to a recent appointment to the City’s Zoning Board of Adjustment (ZBA). “I put a résumé in some time ago. There was an opening on the board and I received a letter, well, first a phone call expressing an interest in having me be on the Zoning Board and I accepted.

continued from page 14 or,” Rush, 65, said. The ZBA has five members, a chairman, deputy chairman and three board members. The panel hears cases on Tuesdays and Thursdays in morning and afternoon sessions. “It is a personal and intense experience for the applicant. People have made it clear what they want is a process that is predictable, fair and where the rules are known,” Rush said. “And the city right now is in the process of a zoning rewrite. The goal is to create a system that does just those things, and I support that. I was asked to sit on that board because I think that’s exactly what we need.” Rush began fulfilling his duties Feb. 15 and is optimistic about the process, though he still recognizes “there’s a long way to go.” Luckily, he is working alongside a mayor that he strongly supports. “Jeff is a lifelong Philadelphian and has demonstrated his tremendous commitment to his city through service in civic organizations across the city,” Mayor Nutter said in a press release. “I thank him for his willingness to serve on the ZBA.” “I’m very pleased and consider it an
RUSH, AS WELL as his wife, Kathy, are South Philadelphia natives. Rush hails from Seventh Street and Oregon Avenue, where his parents used to own a momand-pop hardware store. Kathy is from Seventh and Jackson. “I went to Central High School, then four years at Temple business and law,” Rush, who was drafted before completing his degree, said. After serving for two years, Rush returned to the area and began work “to put food on the table.” He tried his hand at many things, including the flower business, before purchasing an auto repair facility in Mayfair that he still operates today. Through all of his jobs, he has continued to advocate on behalf of Queen Village. “I helped initiate the sticker parking in Queen Village. It was a pilot program. I worked with setting up the South Street detail. That started back in the ’80s. I
worked on the Penn’s Landing development selection committee in 1988 and tried to get Penn’s Landing developed,” he said. “I’ve seen a lot of projects, small and large. I’ve seen a lot of growth in Philadelphia and done what I could where I could to promote positive development.” The improvement of the Delaware River waterfront has always been a passion for Rush, and something he hopes to tackle in his new role. “I think the biggest thing that I see potential over a long period is the development of our waterfront resources. We need a realignment of all the stakeholders in terms of adjusting expectations for a world-class waterfront,” Rush said. He knows that civic matters take time and he realizes his duty on the ZBA will be arduous. Though he will not participate in any cases that affect Queen Village until his term as president of the QVNA expires at the end of this year, he believes his new position is one that can affect positive change. “Zoning will play a very large part in determining what that’s going to look like as time goes by, specifically in Penn’s Landing… the six miles from Oregon to Port Richmond, the strength of those neighborhoods,” Rush said. “The challenge is to maintain the character of each neighbor-
hood since they are really the strength of the city.” As a ZBA board member, Rush will have the chance to play a role in the zoning of these areas and he’s looking forward to the promise a change in economic tides can bring the city. “The City of Philadelphia is absolutely well-positioned to prosper in the coming years as we come out of this terrible economic situation. It started in the ’90s under Mayor Rendell and it’s continuing now and it’s exciting to be part of that,” the former vice chair of the Central Delaware Advocacy Group said. In fact, the ZBA position is just a natural extension of a lifetime commitment to and pursuit of community service. Rush said he feels right at home and ready to continue what he has worked for 30 years to achieve. “There are a lot of people in the City of Philadelphia that love this city and want to see it successful, especially regarding the development of the waterfront, but not limited to that,” Rush said. “A lot of us, including myself, want, when we leave this to our children and grandchildren, to leave it better than we found it.” SPR Comment at news/lifestyles.

honor to have been chosen to sit on the board. And it is every bit of my expectations and it’s a great challenge,” Rush said. “It isn’t all that different from a lot of the work we do with the civics in terms of zoning. It’s greater detail on the process and it’s more multi-dimensional. It has elements to it you don’t necessarily have at the local level.”

Oscar 2011:
All the king’s (little gold) men All eyes will be glued to the TV Sunday night as the Academy hands out its top honors. By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer
I
Best Picture n a twist that’s all but guaranteed to lead to the most banal and undeserved Best Picture win since “Crash” trumped “Brokeback Mountain” in 2005, “The King’s Speech” has surged ahead of critics’ darling “The Social Network,” collecting in its royal robes the top trophies from the Producers, Directors and Screen Actors Guilds. Never has a movie entered the Oscar race with as many precursor wins as “The Social Network” (its current citations tally is somewhere in the 50s), only to falter in the final laps. Why won’t it reach the finish line? “The Social Network” has been honored chiefly by media organizations — from the Hollywood Foreign Press to virtually every major critics’ group — who identify with the film’s commentary on modern communication and its exalting of the lacerating wit of computer-wielding super-geeks. But “The King’s Speech,” which stands at the head of the Oscar pack with 12 nominations, warmed the hearts of the guilds, whose memberships consist of a great deal of Academy voters. In recent years, those
voters have seen their picks align with the picks of film journalists, showering gold on critical faves like “The Hurt Locker,” “Slumdog Millionaire” and “No Country for Old Men.” This year, though, the divide has returned, and the traditionalist fare that’s dominated the Academy’s history will once again be crowned. The rest of the titles in the Best Picture category don’t stand a chance, but it’s worth noting there are none that feel terribly out of place, no sore thumbs like “The Blind Side” or “A Serious Man.” Only “The Fighter” drops well beneath the quality of its fellow contenders, and even that film has a personality and Oscar-friendly trajectory that help it fit nicely into the 10-wide field. All told, it’s a strong group, comprised mainly of must-see movies. The nominees are: “Black Swan,” “The Fighter,” “Inception,” “The Kids Are All Right,” “The King’s Speech,” “127 Hours,” “The Social Network,” “Toy Story 3,” “True Grit” and “Winter’s Bone.” Will win: “The King’s Speech” Should win: “The Social Network” Spoiler: “The Social Network” Best Director The Best Director category is where “The Social Network” may find the sup-
port it needs (in addition to the Best Adapted Screenplay category, which “Social” scribe Aaron Sorkin has in the bag). With his respected, if not always embraced, filmography, the brilliant David Fincher has what it takes to win here, especially since he was only just nominated in ’07 for “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.” “King’s Speech” director and Oscar newcomer Tom Hooper nabbed the Directors Guild prize, but odds are this year will see a Picture/Director split, which, again, would hearken back to ’05, when “Brokeback” helmer Ang Lee bested Paul Haggis of “Crash.” The nominees are: Darren Aronofsy, “Black Swan”; Joel and Ethan Coen, “True Grit”; David Fincher, “The Social Network”; Tom Hooper, “The King’s Speech”; and David O. Russell, “The Fighter.” Will win: Fincher Should win: Fincher Spoiler: Hooper
The nominees are: Annette Bening, “The Kids Are All Right”; Nicole Kidman, “Rabbit Hole”; Jennifer Lawrence, “Winter’s Bone”; Natalie Portman, “Black Swan”; Michelle Williams, “Blue Valentine.” Will win: Portman Should win: Portman Spoiler: Bening
Best Actor By far the easiest category to call this year, Best Actor is all about Colin Firth’s heroic, career-best performance in “The King’s Speech,” a fact that’s remained unchanged since before the race began. Recipient of nearly every Oscar precursor, Firth has a sliver of competition in Jesse Eisenberg (and perhaps Oscar cohost James Franco), but to bet against him would be senseless. The nominees are: Javier Bardem, “Biutiful”; Jeff Bridges, “True Grit”; Jesse Eisenberg, “The Social Network”; Colin Firth, “The King’s Speech”; James Franco, “127 Hours.” Will win: Firth Should win: Eisenberg Spoiler: Eisenberg
Best Supporting Actress Finally there’s the most interesting of the six top races, one that has shifted throughout the season, etched out a clear front-runner, and will likely wind up in the favor of a child. Best Supporting Actress has been good to “Fighter” star Melissa Leo, who’s claimed awards in the category from the Golden Globes and the Screen Actors Guild, to name only two entities. It’s also boosted the already-high profile of Leo’s co-star Amy Adams, who’s been a nomination staple throughout the season. But given a tacky, now-infamous For Your Consideration ad campaign by Leo, and the likelihood of a vote split among the two “Fighter” gals, look for 14-year-old “True Grit” star Hailee Steinfeld to reap the benefits, following in the footsteps of starlets like Tatum O’Neal and Anna Paquin as a pint-sized golden girl. The nominees are: Amy Adams, “The Fighter”; Helena Bonham Carter, “The King’s Speech”; Melissa Leo, “The Fighter”; Hailee Steinfeld, “True Grit”; Jacki Weaver, “Animal Kingdom.” Will win: Steinfeld Should win: Weaver Spoiler: Leo. SPR
Best Actress The race for Best Actress is just about locked up as well, which is saying quite a lot for the front-runner. Boasting stellar turns from Annette Bening, Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Lawrence, Natalie Portman and Michelle Williams, the leading-lady lineup is the strongest it’s been in years. For her moving work in “The Kids Are All Right,” Bening stands a slim chance to at last earn a career statuette, but prima ballerina Portman is more likely to twirl away victorious.
Best Supporting Actor And speaking of strong lineups, this year’s Best Supporting Actor hopefuls would spark some serious archive-digging for those in search of a better bunch. It’s a real shame Andrew Garfield of “The Social Network” had to get the ax, but if that’s what it took for someone like the great John Hawkes to be acknowledged, then so be it. Not that it matters all that much. Christian Bale, with his gaunt, all-guns-blazing, freakshow portrayal of drugged-out Dicky Eklund in “The Fighter,” could curse off the Oscarcast cameramen with arms flailing and still walk home a winner. Some predict Geoffrey Rush will benefit from the “King’s” reign, but that’s quite a long shot. The nominees are: Christian Bale, “The Fighter”; John Hawkes, “Winter’s Bone”; Jeremy Renner, “The Town”; Mark Ruffalo, “The Kids Are All Right”; Geoffrey Rush, “The King’s Speech.” Will win: Bale Should win: Hawkes Spoiler: Rush

one and I prefer it to the original version of Scotch and sweet vermouth. Skillet Blue Bay mussels ($11) was a mountain of squeaky clean, totally free of grit beauties nestled in a fragrant sauce made with Victory lager, fennel, chilies, strips of orange peel and a dab of orange aioli. The sauce was Mediterranean with a twist. Instead of white wine, lager was a fine liquid of choice. Slices of grilled bread, spread with olive oil, were used to sop up every inch of sauce in the bowl. As I stated, Perch Pub is all over the map. I arrived in France with a croque monsieur which I have eaten all over Paris. This version ($9) was made with Black Forest ham, Comte cheese, which melts beautifully, spicy baby arugula leaves and a schmear of aioli. All melted sandwiches at Perch Pub are prepared on country white bread. House made chips, which I
thought were french fries, turned out to be multi-colored ones you find in Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s and other specialty grocers. They were OK, but I would have preferred french fries. Service was a little slow on my second visit. I think the barkeep was a bit preoccupied. But he did introduce me to a perfect Rob Roy. Two-and-a half tips of the toque to Perch Pub. SPR

ble before dinner. Bird seed ($1.50) were really spicy fried black-eyed peas which I had never tasted. The spicy peanuts ($2) were roasted in-house and were a good combo of slightly salty and spicy. Crispy malanga sticks ($3), potato-like root vegetables that belong to the same family as taro root, were shoestring thin, crispy and free of grease, and came with an aioli dip redolent with garlic. Salads were most generous. Edward and I shared the pub chopped salad ($8.50) which was split in the kitchen. They arrived on cool plate and was fashioned with assorted greens, ripe avocado, bits of apple smoked bacon for a crisp and slightly salty flavor, chopped sweet onion, tomatoes, hard-boiled eggs, chic peas and feta. Chopped salads are Middle Eastern in origin, but I liked the culinary license the cooks took here. We dabbed on blue cheese dressing and cleaned our plates. The snacks and salad filled me up, but I wanted to try a burger ($9). You build your own, so we ordered it medium-rare with sautéed onions and it came out perfect. I took a few bites and then dove into the pile of crisp french fries and homemade bread and butter pickles which were sweet. I sipped a Walt Wit draft ($5). Several nights later, I brought along a book for company and enjoyed a program on Phillies spring training. The barkeep on duty asked if I wanted a perfect Rob Roy, which is blended with equal parts of sweet and dry vermouth. I had never tried

oe Varalli has been in the restaurant business for 20 years. Located at Broad and Locust, loyal patrons would flock to Upstares at Varalli before a concert at the Academy of Music or show at the Wilma or Merriam theaters. The tall windows offered lovely views of the Academy and I clearly recall experiencing a number of beautiful sunsets while dining on roast duck. Varalli recently had a change of culinary heart. He gutted the upstairs dining rooms and turned them into a casual American pub called Perch Pub. I have to emphasize that this is an American idea of a pub because the menu is all over the map. You can get fish and chips, but you also can tuck into tacos, Caesar salad, nachos, mussels, fried mozzarella and wings. There are several dining rooms and one includes a pool table. The bar is fashioned from dark wood with a TV above for your sports viewing pleasure. A long row of cute wooden birdhouses perch atop the bar. A tin ceiling adds authenticity to the casual atmosphere. On Super Bowl Sunday, Edward and I enjoyed a matinee performance of three modern works expertly and beautifully danced by the Pennsylvania Ballet. We noticed Perch Pub was open at 3 p.m. so when the performance let out, we were hungry and ready for an early dinner. I sipped a Rob Roy ($9) while Edward enjoyed his martini ($11). Perch Pub offers bar snacks so we needed a little nib-

It’s time to nalize those Best Actor, Actress and Picture predictions as Hollywood’s biggest honors are being handed out Sunday night. Prepare the guest list, dishes and enjoy the show.
By Phyllis Stein-Novack
T
Food Columnist
he Academy Awards are being handed out Sunday evening which happens to be Elizabeth Taylor’s 79th birthday. Queen Liz, of the once sultry looks and lavender eyes reigned as Cleopatra, was a huge star from the 1950s to the ’70s and twice won the Oscar. I wonder who watches award shows, particularly the Oscars. I may get cards and letters on this and might be accused of sexism, but my bet would be on women of any age. The ones who want to see the sometimes gorgeous more often grotesque gowns the actresses wear, to Joan Rivers and the “Fashion Police,” as well as the myriad of women’s clothing designers. The list of nominees is a diverse group of films and actors. I was riveted by “The King’s Speech” and laughed out loud during “The Kids Are All Right.” As a young girl, I longed to be a ballerina just like Natalie Portman in “Black Swan,” but healthy and sane. Sir Elton John hosts an Oscar Night Party. So do Vanity Fair and Wolfgang Puck. I’m sure there are some of us who comedian Bill Cosby calls “regular people” who invite the gang over to goggle at dresses, make wagers on the winners and enjoy good food and drink. As Lucy would say to her landlady,
“Ethel, I have an idea.” Why not prepare foods around this year’s Oscar nominated films and actors? Portman is a nice Jewish Harvard-educated girl who was born in Israel to American parents. My thoughts went immediately to Israeli salads. “The Fighter” takes place in Boston. So I thought about New England Clam Chowder, which must be the official soup of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. “The Kids Are All Right” is about a modern American family living in California. Oscar nominee Mark Ruffalo plays a chef. You can easily find Puck’s recipes online. Finally, what is more British than trifle? I think Colin Firth, Helena Bonham Carter and Geoffrey Rush (OK, I know he’s an Aussie) would approve. Space does not permit my giving you a recipe for trifle. It’s a big glass bowl filled with layered ladyfingers with custard cream and fruits. You can get a recipe online or create your own sweet concoction.
■ Avocado Salad with ■ Cucumbers, Persimmons, Papaya and Citrus from “The Foods of Israel Today” by Joan Nathan Ingredients: 1 persimmon, peeled and diced 1 papaya, peeled, seeds removed and diced
1 long crisp cucumber, sliced in rounds 1 grapefruit, peeled and diced 1 orange, peeled and diced Juice of 2 lemons 1 clove of garlic, finely minced 1 tablespoon of honey Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste 4 tablespoons of olive oil 1 avocado, peeled and diced just before serving 1/2 head of radicchio
Directions: Place the first five ingredients in a glass bowl. Place the next five ingredients in a small bowl. Whisk in the oil, taste and adjust the seasonings, then pour over the fruit. This can be done hours in advance. Add the avocado just before serving and blend well with your hands. Serve in a bowl lined with the radicchio. Serves six. Note from Phyllis: If you cannot find persimmons, you could substitute a mango or pomegranate seeds. I would use a ruby red grapefruit and a large navel orange in this recipe.
■ New England Clam Chowder ■ Ingredients: 1 1/2 sticks of unsatled butter 2 medium onions, chopped
4 stalks of celery, diced 6 medium Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and diced Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste 4 cups of bottled clam juice 1/2 cup of flour 2 cups of half-and-half 24 ounces of clams, shucked
Directions: Melt 1/2 stick of the butter in a 4-quart pot. Add the onions and cook over a medium-low heat for 10 minutes. Add the next four ingredients and sauté for about 10 minutes more. Add the clam juice, bring to a boil, and simmer, uncovered for about 20 minutes. In a small pot, melt the remaining butter and whisk in the flour. Cook over a very low heat for about three minutes, stirring constantly. Whisk in a cup of the hot stock and pour the mixture back into the cooked vegetables. Simmer a few minutes until the stock is thickened. Add the half-and-half and clams and heat gently for a few minutes. Taste and correct for seasonings. Serves six. Note from Phyllis: Whole Foods and many fish stores sell already shucked clams with their liquid. SPR Comment at www.southphillyreview.com/foodand-drink/features.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20): Spending time in quiet reverie invigorates you. Get out your journal, draw or do some dream work. Be wary of becoming pulled into someone else’s drama. Lucky number: 213. ARIES (March 21 to April 20): Consorting with friends may become frustrating when an outspoken person mesmerizes the clique. The attention this individual consumes makes you feel invisible. Engage in a solitary endeavor that provides more satisfaction. Lucky number: 146. TAURUS (April 21 to May 20): Hide out in your space and meditate. Immersing in a spiritual pursuit may make this a perfect day. Don’t tell anyone you are at home; someone will want your time and energy. Lucky number: 679. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20): Your closest relationship won’t be the source of peace you expect. If you are married or living with someone, tension at home makes it difficult to discuss what’s going on. Address issues once the ambience is more relaxed. Lucky number: 075. CANCER (June 21 to July 22): Overtures made to a potential passion partner go unheeded. Don’t keep chasing something that isn’t going anywhere. Channel this obsession by focusing on a project. Lucky number: 794. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22): If traveling, it is probably to somewhere magical and romantic. If you are not traveling, visit and experience other worlds through fantasy. Lucky number: 383. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22): Going on a journey with a group or participating in a class becomes frustrating. Studying alone is more illuminating. Lucky number: 902. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22): Your career is on your mind. Indulge in imagining what you could do and eventually want to be. Plot out a plan at a later time. Lucky number: 527. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21): Do whatever you can to work solo today. Collaborating with a colleague or business partner is going to be a challenge. Focus on tasks that don’t require a give-and-take discussion. Lucky number: 792. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21): Take it easy with friends if possible. Be wary of someone who asks for your help; you may end up doing this person’s tasks. Lucky number: 810. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19): Problems at home will arise if you feel your individual pursuits aren’t being supported. A fixation on your personal path is best dealt with by attending to the project details. Loved ones are probably involved in personal interests. Lucky number: 728. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18): An infatuation may have you imagining the possibilities of togetherness. If this person is also charmed by you, this could become something more than a dream. Lucky number: 441. SPR

WEST PASSYUNK’S PREP Charter Huskies have spelled nothing but misery for all but one opponent. Coach Paul Rieser’s charges took a 21-1 mark into their Public League semifinal against the Engineering and Science Engineers. The Huskies, with Drexel signee Tiffany Johnson running the point, set up the meeting with the 18-6 opposition by stealing the fire from the Freire Charter Dragons, earning a 75-31 victory at the same site on Feb. 18. The beatdown marked their smallest margin of victory since a Jan. 24 61-21 destruction of the Franklin Learning Center Bobcats. The quarterfinal win netted the school
the Public League Class AA title and gave Freire its second display of the Huskies’ dominance after annihilating the Dragons 63-20 on Jan. 21. In the second game, Prep Charter built a 35-14 halftime lead. Junior forward Kahleah Copper scored 24 points and snared 14 rebounds. She and Johnson each scored 10 points in the third quarter, with the latter finishing with 12. Last night’s game was the school’s latest attempt to add to a growing trophy case. With Johnson’s legs and Rieser’s guile, the Huskies have won two state District 12 Public League championships. Heading into the match-up, their only setback came Jan. 16, a 63-44 loss to Maryland’s Bishop McNamara at the Blue Star tournament in Upper Dublin. In other Prep Charter news, the schoo’s boys’ basketball team battled the Communications Tech Phoenix yesterday for the fourth District 12 spot in the Class AA state playoffs. SPR
JUNIOR LEGION TRYOUTS
SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I February 24, 2011
hile many fans tab the Phillies to be professional juggernauts this season, South Philadelphia already possesses a pair of reliable amateur machines. Last night in games that ended after press time, the boys’ bunch from Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., and the girls’ gang from Prep Charter High School, 1928 Point Breeze Ave., looked to extend seasons featuring impressive winning streaks and blowout triumphs. The Neumann-Goretti Saints, victors in their last 52 regular season and playoff endeavors against Catholic League foes, faced Center City-based Roman Catholic High School, twice a victim in the Passyunk Square school’s run. The Saints, the two-time defending league champions and last year’s city and state vanquishers, advanced to the ballyhooed contest with a 63-39 pasting of Drexel Hill’s Monsignor Bonner. Friday’s home quarterfinal victory showed off the balanced attack that has become synonymous with the personnel that Catholic League Coach of the Year Carl Arrigale enlists. The team built a 10-point lead and stretched the deficit to 15 by halftime. Further frustration awaited the Friars in the second half as they posted only 20 points over the final 16 minutes. Sophomore forward John Davis, a first-team AllCatholic selection, notched 12 points and 14 rebounds. Junior guard La’Quan Coaxum and freshman guard Ja’Quan Newton also pumped in a dozen points each. Senior guard Lamin Fulton, the league’s Co-MVP, and junior forward Derrick Stewart, also first-team picks, scored 10 and nine points, respectively. Junior guard Billy Shank totaled six points, and sophomore guard Hanif Sutton added two points and six of the Saints’ 13 assists. The win pushed the team to 19-4, with 15 of its last 16 games going into the win column. To set up the year’s second battle

Howard Hanna Real Estate Services Corporate Office 119 Gamma Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15238 For immediate release
Pennsylvania’s Largest Real Estate Company Opens Office in Philadelphia Philadelphia (PA) February 15, 2011 – Chairman and CEO Howard W. “Hoddy” Hanna, III today announced his company’s first office in Philadelphia. Howard Hanna Real Estate Services, the #1 home seller in Pennsylvania and Ohio and the 4th largest real estate company in the United States, has affiliated with Philadelphia Realty, formally known as Philator.com REALTORS®. Howard Hanna’s new office, Howard Hanna Philadelphia Realty, is located at 2514 S. Broad Street, just minutes from Center City. A grand opening is planned for March 7, 2011. “We are very excited about our newest office in ‘The City of Brotherly Love’ and our affiliation with Philadelphia Realty broker/owner Frank Jacovini,” said Hanna. “This is our 132nd office and we are proud to now be a part of the real estate community in the largest city in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. We hope to have three more new locations in Southeastern Pennsylvania within the year,” he added. This is the company’s 69th office in Pennsylvania; they have 55 in Ohio. Frank Jacovini has been a REALTOR® at this location for 19 years and became broker/ owner in 2006. He was just recently installed as the 2011 President Elect of the Pennsylvania Association of REALTORS® and a Past President of the Greater Philadelphia Association of REALTORS®. “I chose to affiliate with the most successful and respected, independently-owned, family run and innovative firm in the nation,” said Jacovini who met the Hannas at a real estate convention where Helen Hanna Casey, president of the company, was the featured speaker. “The innovative marketing tools and powerful consumer focused programs and services Howard Hanna has to offer not only compete with but beat the competitors in the Philadelphia market to the benefit of buyers and sellers,” he added. Howard Hanna Real Estate Services brings to the Philadelphia real estate market their exclusive 100% Money Back Guarantee. This guarantee sets a home apart from others on the market and offers unequaled security to home buyers, giving them confidence in the value of the home they are purchasing. “Unlike any other real estate company, Howard Hanna stands behind the property for 100% of its sales price,” said Hanna. “We believe in the value of the homes we are selling.” In addition, Howard Hanna’s Apartment Dwellers Trade-In Program will be available to buyers in the Philadelphia market. This program lessens buyers concerns about lease obligations in order to be able to buy a home. Howard Hanna’s ‘multi-generational’ advertising will be everywhere: newspapers, magazines, TV, online at the award-winning www.howardhanna.com, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, appealing to all demographics and driving more buyers to Howard Hanna listings. A few 2010 highlights at Howard Hanna Real Estate Services: • #1 in market share in Pennsylvania and Ohio • Sold 33,953 homes. That is a home sale every 15-16 minutes! “We are expecting an even better year in 2011. Mortgage interest rates continue to be low, consumer confidence has improved, the stock market is up and unemployment is down,” said Hanna.
