en years ago, Sara McCorriston and Jason Chen weren’t exactly sure what the Paradigm Gallery and Studio would eventually become.

Over time, the little art gallery at 4th and Fitzwater streets in Queen Village has emerged as a friendly showcase for large and local talent, and as a beacon for newer artists attempting to catch a break.

At the young, but established age of 10, Paradigm has become many things to many people.

“We started it 10 years ago without any definite plan in mind,” McCorriston said. “We just knew a lot of talented people, and their artwork deserves to be seen. It came from that place of just loving their artwork and being excited about it.

And I’m still excited about it.”

Paradigm is celebrating its milestone with a comprehensive group exhibition, which features the work of more than 125 artists who have contributed artwork to the gallery during the last decade.

Appropriately called “TEN,” the new exhibition coincides with the anniversary, and spans across several mediums, including painting, drawing, sculpture, fibers, craft and mixed media.

The exhibition opened on Feb. 28 and will continue through March 21 on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays from noon to 6 p.m.

TEN will also preview the work of several solo exhibitions coming up in the 2020 season at Paradigm. Collingswood resident Jedediah Morfit’s solo exhibition is right around the corner, See PARADIGM, page 10>>

Cheating in baseball

EDITORIAL CARTOON

S

ports in America. Sports teaches us teamwork.

Sports teaches us sportsmanship. Sports in America teaches us to be better people.

But there has always been a dark side to sports. Both professional and amateur. At the collegiate level -- the point-shaving scandals in college basketball. The hypocrisy of what constitutes the true amateur. The self-entitlement of the big men on campus. The recruiting violations. In the pros, the unmitigated greed of both owners and players. The longtime refusal to acknowledge the seriousness of head injuries. The performance-enhancing drugs. The gambling addiction that brought down one of baseball’s biggest stars. The willful insensitivity toward violence against women. The feeling that maybe the dark side has overwhelmed anything good about sports. And now at a time when the thought of spring and the coming season is supposed to lift us out of the doldrums of winter, a cheating scandal hangs over baseball to remind us of the sometimes awfulness of the win-at-all-costs mentality in organized sports.

To understand the uproar over what the Houston Astros have admitted to and the Boston Red Sox as yet have not, you have to understand the darkness that lies at the heart of competitive sports. The edge. Everybody associated with games wants an edge. Whether you’re corrupted by that desire is determined by how you seek that edge.

Early in the last century, gamblers sought the edge by paying Major League Baseball players to fix games. In 1919, Arnold Rothstein famously fixed the World Series. The White Sox became the Black Sox. Rothstein became a character in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s THE GREAT GATSBY and the innocence of America’s game was stolen from us.

In the late ‘90s, players — some of them big stars -discovered performance-enhancing drugs. Players like Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens were the very heart of the game. The revered historical records of the game, such as the home run record, were turned into a freakish joke. The game survived, but with its players and their performances now constantly under suspicion.

Today, the game has been rocked by the revelation that one (and perhaps two) of its most dominant teams of the last five years cheated by using electronic means to steal signs. The outrage is real, but also as naïve as thinking that Norman Rockwell paintings depicted the real America.

Stealing signs is NOT a violation of baseball’s rules.

In fact, stealing signs has been a time-honored tradition in baseball. But in 1961, Major League Baseball decided to define HOW you could permissibly steal signs. It outlawed the use of “mechanical means.” I will leave it to

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Put safe injection site at Broad and Snyder Yes, we need a safe injection site near Broad and Snyder. In the past few years, the number of homeless folks and street drug users around there has gone up astronomically.

I am happy to hear that someone is finally trying to do something concrete about this situation. In my own family, more than one person has died from either a drug overdose or from throwing their life away to one form or another of substance abuse. I am always in favor of treatment facilities, and a safe injection site is just one more of that type of thing.

I know that, unfortunately, some people have chemical imbalances in their bodies and can’t seem to get off drugs, and I wish they had a

safe place to get services. I live near Broad and Snyder and shop there all the time, and I feel bad about seeing so many more destitute people on the street around there.

Jeff Keith

No taxpayer funds for abortion Thanks to letter writer Leslie McLaughlin for trying to “educate” me on the many health services provided by Planned Parenthood (besides the more than 340,000 abortions they performed in 2018).

One of the main sources of funding for those services has been Title X, a federal program started by President Nixon. They

include STD testing, various screenings, education and wellness exams for low-income people. Preventing unwanted pregnancies is part of that. All good.

Planned Parenthood and some other providers, however, decided to withdraw from all national funding rather than comply with a Trump administration order barring clinics that participate in Title X from referring patients for abortion services. So Gov. Wolf, like many other governors, is doing what he can to replace the rejected federal funds by adding $3 million to his state budget.

Of course, I realize that ending unborn life is legal, but I have the right to conscientiously object to my taxes being used to fund it. Planned Parenthood can raise the money some other way.

Baseball Cheaters

<<Continued from page 4

ethics classes to determine whether how you steal signs, rather than the act of stealing signs, is the issue.

Not too long ago, it was revealed that one of the most famous events in the history of baseball — the Bobby Thomson home run that brought the New York Giants the pennant in 1951 — may have involved his team using a telescope to tip him off to the Ralph Branca fastball he hit into the left-field stands. Thomson denied that he was tipped off. But the Giants admitted to stealing signs during the game. Would the use of a telescope in 1951 be considered “mechanical means?” This old-time Brooklyn Dodgers fan hopes that the Big Commish in the sky has forced the two teams to replay that ninth inning.

While the cheating Astros used information gained in their video replay room, I wonder if their banging a trash can to relay the pitch selection to their hitters could be construed as high tech? On such minute details, we are forced to measure the ethics of the latest baseball scandal.

The anguish among both players and fans is as great as it was during the steroid-fueled home run era. That surprises this longtime fan.

Understandably, some of the players most angered by the Astros’ cheating are those who played on teams that lost to the Astros in tightly contested post-season series. These players and their fans are calling for Rob Manfred, the commissioner of baseball, to strip Houston of its world championship and American League title. The scandal has cost the Astros $5 million in fines and the forfeiture of the team’s firstand second-round draft picks in 2020. Both the general manager and manager of the team were fired by ownership. In addition, two other managers lost their jobs because they were implicated in the scandal while players on the Astros.

We insist on clinging to the myth of the game’s essential innocence, but sports in general, and baseball in particular, have always embraced one form of cheating or another. A catcher in baseball is celebrated for the way he “frames” his pitches, but “framing” is merely the art of deceiving an umpire into thinking a ball is actually a strike. The spit ball is outlawed, but at least one of the Hall of Fame members elected in my lifetime admitted using the spit ball. An outfielder who traps a ball always attempts to convince an umpire that he has, in fact, caught it. In hockey, “taking a dive” is a tactic used by players to fool a referee into thinking they were tripped so the opposing team is penalized and placed at a disadvantage.

The cheating scandal will eventually be forgotten. Baseball will move on. We will move on, too. As we always do. And once again, we will believe in the “innocence” of the game. •• You can follow Tom Cardella on Facebook.

Scanlon wants SSI for non-English speakers

U.S. Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon introduced the Language Equity in Social Security Act to push back on the Trump administration’s decision to not consider an “Inability to Communicate in English” as an adverse educational factor when determining whether or not a person with disabilities is eligible for Supplemental Security Income.

Under previous guidelines, when a person has a disability that limits their ability to work, and has no or little past relevant work experience, the inability to communicate in English was considered an additional major barrier to employment.

The Language Equity in Social Security Act amends the statute to require the Social Security Administration to consider an individual’s linguistic limitations, including an inability to speak English, in determining eligibility for SSI and SSDI. “This proposed rule change by the Trump administration is yet another attempt to strip benefits from our communities who need them most,” Scanlon said. “Denying Social Security and SSI disability benefits to older, severely disabled workers, who are not native English speakers, would cause significant harm – jeopardizing the economic security of countless people who rely on these benefits. My bill pushes back on this uninformed and misguided rule change to ensure that people with disabilities receive the benefits they are due.”

A whirlwind week for supporters, opponents of safe injection sites

Anticipating blowback from the community, Ed Rendell argued that the downsides of safe injection sites were “very small.” His argument didn’t work.

By Tom Beck

F

SOUTH PHILLY REVIEW

or a brief, roughly 24-hour period last week, Philadelphia was set to become the first city in the United States to open a safe injection site.

It all started at a Wednesday morning news conference, when Safehouse co-founder Ronda Goldfein and former Gov. Ed Rendell told reporters about their plans to have Safehouse’s very first site open the following week at South Philly’s Constitution Health Plaza at Broad and McKean.

Rendell said that Safehouse’s goal was to save lives. Anticipating blowback from the community, Rendell said that the downsides of safe injection sites were “very small.” Studies have shown that safe injection sites don’t increase crime, he argued, just like when Prevention Point didn’t after it came to Kensington in the early ‘90s. In fact, crime rates decreased over the next three years, he said. Additionally, people who use the site would have their syringes and paraphernalia confiscated before they leave, so they wouldn’t litter the street. But Rendell’s argument didn’t work.

“You snuck it in,” a resident yelled at Rendell at the news conference. “You blindsided us...this is unacceptable and you were a sneak about it.”

The resident’s opposition to the lack of community input was echoed by many local politicians.

City Councilman Mark Squilla, who was present, agreed.

“People are calling our office, and we don’t have any answers,” he said. “That’s not fair – whether you support the site or you oppose the site. What was done here was horrible and is a disgrace to the city of Philadelphia. It’s not part of democracy.”

Squilla added: “The only reason why you did this is because you wanted Philadelphia to be the first [city to have] a safe injection site.”

In the ensuing hours, more local politicians piled on. Many local politicians didn’t necessarily say they were against safe injection sites, but rather that they had concerns about the lack of community involvement.

“We have serious concerns about the lack of community involvement in this process,” read a statement put out by state Reps. Maria Donatucci, Jordan Harris and Elizabeth Fiedler on Wednesday afternoon. “Our offices have received numerous calls from constituents who were blindsided by this announcement. They have valid questions and concerns and they deserve the chance to discuss them.”

State Sen. Larry Farnese, who supports safe injection sites, said that “trust has been lost” in Safehouse because of their lack of solicitation of community input. He called it a “bait and switch.”

TOM BECK/South Philly Review

Former Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell spoke in support of Safehouse at Wednesday’s news conference.

“If Safehouse believes it is easier to ask forgiveness than permission, we will prove them wrong,” he said.

“Operations that claim to provide a safe medical environment for clients should face at least as much state scrutiny as bars, casinos or racetracks. To allow otherwise is reckless and opens the door for bad-faith actors across the city to do the same.”

Farnese’s opponent in the upcoming Democratic primary, Nikil Saval, was one of the lone supporters of Safehouse’s opening in South Philly.

“I support overdose prevention sites, I support the opening of Safehouse in South Philadelphia, and I support harm reduction advocates in their work to recognize the humanity of people who use drugs,” said Saval’s statement about Safehouse opening. “As a candidate for state senate in the First Senatorial District, I categorically oppose any legislative, or rhetorical, attempts to pre-empt or prevent the opening of Safehouse; I am also against any state preemption of Philadelphia’s or any other city’s ability to open such sites.”

But the very next day, Saval and other supporters of Safehouse were delivered the bad news.

A statement put out by Mayor Jim Kenney revealed that Safehouse had “voluntarily delayed” opening the safe injection site. Soon after, the building owner “alerted the City that he was no longer interested in moving forward with the lease.”

Kenney is a noted supporter of safe injection sites.

Despite that, he said he was glad Safehouse would be allotted “more time to examine its options, and to engage with the community.”

“It will allow everyone to take a deep breath and focus on the ultimate goal of this effort: to save the lives of fellow Philadelphians who are struggling with addiction,” he said. “I remain committed to moving

TOM BECK/South Philly Review

State Sen. Anthony Williams spoke in favor of Senate Bill 933, which would mandate neighborhood input before a safe injection site can be placed in a community, at a Monday morning news conference. forward in a deliberate, thoughtful, and collaborative way to open a site that will save lives.”

Those in opposition to the safe injection site held something of a victory rally at the corner of Broad and McKean streets on Sunday.

“Our voice was heard,” said Councilman David Oh to those in attendance at the rally. “Whatever they think the good of it is, they gotta get your opinion.”

An ordinance introduced by Oh on Thursday seeks to do just that. The ordinance seeks to mandate that any plans to operate a safe injection site are to be “publicized to every resident, business, and institution within a one mile radius of the proposed location at least six months prior to [the] planned operation of [the] site.”

The ordinance also mandates at least one public hearing to be held three months prior to its opening, and that 90 percent of residents, businesses and institutions within the 1-mile radius of the facility must approve of the site before it opens.

“This was done very secretly [and] I believe it was done intentionally so that the public could not have input,” said Oh at the rally.

State Sens. Anthony H. Williams and Tina Tartaglione are introducing similar legislation at the state level.

“I am deeply troubled by the unnecessary confusion, fear and anxiety caused by Safehouse’s lack of transparency surrounding its location for a supervised

injection site. An entire community in South Philadelphia was blindsided when the news broke that a site had been chosen,” Williams said. “I have proposed legislation along with Sen. Tartaglione that would bring needed transparency to the conversation surrounding supervised injection sites in Pennsylvania. It empowers local communities and local governments to provide input and ensures safety and security for all.”

The bill would require three public input hearings before any decisions about a supervised injection site are made and mandate the facility submit a proactive and comprehensive community safety plan developed alongside local law enforcement.

“We cannot overcome the opioid crisis or advance community health by pursuing policies and programs that largely ignore the community,” Tartaglione said.

“The legislation proposed by Sen. Williams and me – Senate Bill 933 – would guarantee community input by mandating public hearings and by requiring operators to develop proactive and comprehensive community safety plans. Our bill would force organizations to take neighbors into consideration before establishing safe-injection sites.”

At a news conference announcing the Senate bill at City Hall on Monday, local politicians made clear their efforts to prevent a similar situation from happening in the future. Donatucci said she had been perusing the frequently asked questions page of Safehouse’s website when she saw a question about where Safehouse be located.

“Safehouse locations will be determined by community and city input, as well as data that show the areas where the greatest need exists,” the website reads. “Safehouse considers it a priority to be a good neighbor, so locations will be selected in consultation with local leaders, businesses and residents.”

“Well, this did not happen,” Donatucci said. “Nobody reached out to any of us, and there are valid questions and concerns that must be addressed. We need transparency, we demand transparency.”

At the same news conference, Williams said that Safehouse and other proponents of safe injection sites had “lost credibility by the means and mechanisms that they chose to use to move this injection site forward.”

Tartaglione said she was drafting a bill to make safe injection sites illegal in the city and the state.

“I have children walking to school and they think it’s normal to walk over a body passed out or to see someone shooting up in every part of their body,” she said. “If Mayor Kenney and Gov. Rendell believe so strongly about safe injection sites, put it next to their homes..”

According to the city’s overdose data, 1,116 people died from overdoses in 2018. Safehouse did not immediately return a request for comment.

Princesses and their daddies Girls at Universal Institute Charter School enjoyed a masquerade ball with their dads

By Mark Zimmaro SOUTH PHILLY REVIEW

ehind the masks, there were many smiles.

Love was certainly in the air as the Universal Institute Charter School held its second annual Daddy Daughter Masquerade Ball on Feb. 26 Little princesses were escorted by their loving fathers as the school held its formal event, as part of the Positive Behavioral Support Initiative, at Universal Audenried High School on Tasker Street.

The ball was marked on calendars early and gave dads a chance to bond with their little girls on a night of dinner and dancing.

“It’s become a hallmark event that our parents love,” Universal Institute Principal Jeffrey Williams said. “They really look forward to it. It’s the best combination on Earth to see a dad and his little girl together. There’s nothing above it. I don’t have daughters, I have two sons, so I live vicariously through these dads and the daughters.”

More than 100 dads dressed to the nines, wanting to look their best for their daughters, who attend the kindergarten-through-ninth grade school at 1415

Catharine St. Dwayne Murchison went full tuxedo and bowtie for his daughter Chloe, who said her father looked “very handsome” at the ball.

“It’s very important to show your daughter an example of a well-dressed man so she’ll know what she can look for in a man when she gets older,” the proud father said. “She knows I’m a hard worker and a provider and I still make time for her even though I travel a lot for work.”

Craig Burgess was pulling double duty as his 7-year-old twins Nylah and Zoe were full of energy that night.

“They’ve been talking about it all week,” Burgess said. “They couldn’t wait to go to the daddy daughter dance. We went last year so they already knew and wanted to sign up again. They were ready.”

Burgess was able to catch his breath as Zoe and Nylah spotted some friends nearby. They didn’t stray long, often coming back to give their dad a hug.

“It’s cool that they get to see all their girls with no boys here to interrupt them,” Burgess said. “They can run around and play and have a great time.”

The event doesn’t come together without an enormous undertaking by the staff and volunteers of the school. Luay Abdusshaheed is a Universal Institute

graduate who is now a 10th-grader through a homeschooling program through Connections Academy. He volunteered his time busing tables and escorting guests to their spots, and he was responsible for cleanup duties following the event. He was one of several seventh or eighth-grade students and recent graduates who helped out as part of a school mentoring program. He

also volunteered last year at the masquerade ball.

“It was pretty fun last year,” Abdusshaheed said.

“Everyone had a good time dancing. It makes me feel good that they can do this with their daughters.”

Williams said about 30 staff members came out to help the cause, including teachers, assistants and administrators. They helped serve food, organize festivities and make sure every girl was the belle of the ball.

“It’s a full staff effort and a true labor of love,” Williams said.

The showing, which is a collaboration between DVAA and Philadelphia Sculptors, features local artists who confront and question everything from politics, gun rights and violence to art history and the art world, gender norms, social problems and environmental threats through their sculptures. It was juried

by Moore College of Art and Design professor Alice Oh. “I think that when we proposed this it was about how I think we’re living in a very challenging time young and old and people in their middle ages,” said Oh. “There’s just so many questions out there about what is right, what is wrong or where we are going with our environmental issues.”

Oh said much of her curation centered around sur-

realism.

“I wanted it to be as much about asking questions about the work itself rather than just walking away with something that’s very one dimensional.”

Much of the work is outwardly political, including Trash Talk, a piece by Simone Spicer, which consists of the head of Donald Trump made out of used and cut apart laundry detergent bottles.

Another piece, Eleanor Levie’s Trumpasourus Rex, is a quilt emblazoned with a smiling green dinosaur with Trump’s haircut. On the quilt is a humorous depiction of the Trumpasourus Rex trampling over the United States Constitution.

Oh said she wanted to select work that questions “the system,” and what is political. When she was selecting pieces for the show, she told SPR that she wanted to define what the word “subversion” meant to her. For Oh, it meant incorporating humor.

“Humor was important for me,” she said. “There are a couple pieces where comedy came out. I think it’s important because it gets through to people much better.”

But Oh also wanted to challenge people by mak-

ing them think about important topics like the state of the environment. No piece of work better reflected this than Nicholli Matheny’s Breathe. Breathe consists of a brass and copper breathing mask situated upon a pile of bituminous coal. The piece is situated closer to the ground, below the viewer’s eye level.

“The perspective in relation to eye level is super important,” Oh said. “It’s such a different experience in terms of feeling the gravity. It’s very unique. It’s not true so much with two-dimensional [artwork], but when it comes to 3D installations, it’s always an issue when you deal with the gravity and the weight of it.

Is it light or is it fluffy or is it something that feels heavy?”

One of the more fascinating pieces of work in the exhibition is Travis Donovan’s Lite Beer, which features a crumpled can of Pabst Blue Ribbon appearing to magically float and oscillate upon its pedestal.

“There’s something about kinetic art,” Oh said.

“When you think about it you go, ‘Oh, it’s a beer can.’ But it’s not just a beer can. It’s actually floating in space in a way where there’s some other mechanic [element] to it.”

Trash Talk, Head of Trump by Simone Spicer

Oh called the piece “a transformation of what you have into something unique and different.”

“It’s a great practice of bringing science and engineering and art altogether in a nontraditional way of thinking about what sculpture is.”

Subversion will be on view in Galleries 1 & 2 at DVAA, 704 Catharine St., until March 22.

East Passyunk artist’s work on display through April 4

By Mark Zimmaro

D

SOUTH PHILLY REVIEW

eborah Caiola sure has a lot on her mind and even more on her paintbrush.

Art enthusiasts can have a frontrow seat to Caiola’s imagination as she extracts characters from archetypes, memories and ancestors in an upcoming art exhibit.

Caiola, who lives in the East Passyunk neighborhood of South Philadelphia, is unveiling her work called “Muses, Guardians, and Saints” through April 4 at the InLiquid Gallery at the Crane Arts Building at 1400 N. American St. in Northern Liberties.

Gallery hours are Wednesdays through Saturdays from noon to 6 p.m. A reception will be held on March 12 from 6 to 9 p.m.

Each of the 15 large drawings were pulled from Caiola’s mind without using visual references in what she describes as a dance with her subconscious.

“In the end, it’s what I was meant to do the whole time,” Caiola said. “It’s 100 times more fun to be able to draw something out, than to have to make it look like something similar. It’s infinite.”

Caiola has been teaching art at the Friends Select School in Center City for 10 years and she’s in her second year as chair of the school’s visual arts department.

Originally from Washington D.C., Caiola moved to Philadelphia in the early ‘90s and earned a living as a social worker while studying at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. She fell in love with the art scene in Philadelphia and decided to stick around.

“My brother says I came for the weekend and never left,” she said with a laugh. “I lived with him for seven years.”

Now she produces artwork in a studio on the second floor of her East Passyunk home. Her current work is drastically different from her first exhibit 12 years ago at the Bridgette Mayer gallery on Walnut Street in Washington Square, when she unveiled paintings that coincided with interviews of a dozen women from the Silent Generation.

Since then, her hard work as a teacher gave her limited time to pursue creating art. But that changed five years ago, as Caiola decided to dedicate more time to painting “Education is a whole thing,” she said. “And I’m still learning every day. But I didn’t have a lot of time for this. But five years ago, I decided I have to work. If you’re an artist, you paint.”

It resulted in a wonderful collection of surreal lifelike characters on 48-inch by 36-inch wooden displays.

Each painting contains symbols that illustrate the essential aspects of the character. Caiola says the exhibition captures one moment in the life of the protagonist, with some muses, guardians and

PARADIGM: Celebrates 10 years <<Continued from page 1 beginning in April. The talented sculptor’s strong feelings on disorientation and contradiction are a theme in his upcoming show.

“This show reflects push-pull anxiety,” Morfit said. “The future’s amazing. (Stuff) happens so fast. Amazon packages show up on my doorstep, and I love my Apple Watch. But at the same time, getting everything delivered is manifestly bad.

You know the flip side of everything happening and you have no idea how to feel.”

This will be Morfit’s second show at Paradigm.

“I really like the transparency of Paradigm,” he said. “The art world is full of nebulous bull. And Paradigm seems to find a way to transcend that.

They like what they like and they’re not trying to spin it in a way where there’s any bad faith involved. The reason I ended up there was because all my favorite artists were there already.”

Media resident Kelly Kozma gave similar praise for Paradigm as her fifth solo show approaches in May. “I love the accessibility,” Kozma said. “They don’t always go for what’s hot or trendy. They’re

always trying to explore different mediums. And Sara and Jason are some of the most down-toearth, hard-working people that I know. They’re loyal and loving and it feels like a family to be there.”

Kozma said she sold about 90 percent of her work at her last show and she’s looking forward to returning in a few months. The show uses many recycled materials, telling an abstract story of having something burn down and rebuilding from a foundation.

“It’s definitely layered,” Kozma said. “People say my work is very happy and very optimistic.

But at the same time, it’s about the masks we wear and the facades we put up to get through traumatic times.”

Katherine Fraser’s fourth solo show will arrive in September. Originally from Maine, Fraser was displaying an oil on canvas painting called “The Illusion” during a recent celebration event for the Paradigm. She said her past events at the gallery have been profitable and helped her find her successful path in art.

“Sara and Jason are unlike any other gallery owners I’ve ever met,” Fraser said. “They hustle

saints more present and in focus than others.

Caiola says this body of work follows a long history of archetypal studies, including the Kabbalah, the Tarot, classical temperaments, the Enneagram, the 21 Taras of Buddhism, Carl Jung’s 12 fundamental traits, the MyMARK ZIMMARO/South Philly Review ers-Briggs and the many faces East Passyunk resident Deborah Caiola will show an exhibit of art called of the Hindu Muses, Guardians and Saints at the InLiquid Gallery from March 4-April 4.

so hard, and from the minute we agreed to start working together, they were on my team and started promoting me. I’m selling so much art with them that I’m able to be more of a full-time artist than I ever have before. We’re all rising together.”

Paradigm has been on the rise for 10 years and it has no intentions of slowing down. The gallery has increased by four times in size since its opening.

“We started off tiny,” McCorriston said.

“In a way, there still aren’t too many people behind the curtain, but we’re projecting a lot bigger than we did 10 years ago.”

The TEN exhibition pays homage to some of the original artists from the first year of business including Brad Haubrich MARK ZIMMARO/South Philly Review and Noségo. It also features an exquisite Cheers!

PWHPA Dream Gap Tour comes to Philly area

By Mark Zimmaro SOUTH PHILLY REVIEW

F

rom little girls to grown men, they packed the stands and they packed them tight.

The overflow pressed up against the glass to experience the rarest of treats. The biggest names in women’s hockey had arrived at the sold-out Flyers Skate Zone in Voorhees over the weekend as the Professional Women’s Hockey Players Association’s Dream Gap Tour made a pit stop just outside Philadelphia.

Four exhibition games over two days gave fans a chance to see women’s hockey heroes Amanda Kessel, Jocelyn Lamoureux-Davidson, Monique Lamoureux-Morando, Brianne Jenner, Hilary Knight, Kendall Coyne Schofield, Natalie Spooner and Sarah Nurse, among others.

“We want to hit markets where women’s hockey isn’t always there,” said Canadian Olympic silver medalist and NCAA champion Renata Fast.

“We want to gain more exposure and get our message out on what we’re trying to achieve, but the end goal is to have a real professional league that we can play in. In the meantime, this is a great way to get out and show our talent to a bunch of different markets that don’t see women’s hockey and continue to grow a fan base.”

The future of professional women’s hockey has been murky with the recent disbanding of the 12-team Canadian Women’s Hockey League after a dozen years of operation. For the last

Neither league had provided health insurance or livable wages to players.

And after the CWHL folded, more than 200 players released a joint statement, announcing their tough stance to not play in any professional league in North America for the 2019-20 season.

The Professional Women’s Hockey Players Association was then created as a union to push for financial infra-

Players have taken to the road as part of the Dream Gap Tour to show hockey fans what they’ve been missing.

“We love coming out and doing this,” said Sarah Nurse, who formerly played for the Toronto Furies of the CWHL. “Bringing hockey to places where women’s hockey doesn’t happen all the time is something that we really want to do and I think it’s some-

Nurse was a captain of one of the four teams over the weekend. Team Nurse competed against Team (Blayre) Turnbull in one semifinal match on Saturday, while Team (Megan) Keller took on Team (Brianna) Decker in the other.

“We don’t get to play that many games in the season, so when we do, we want to put on a great show,” said Natalie Spooner, a Canadian Olympic gold medalist, who also played for the Furies. “Especially being here and seeing those little girls in the stands and seeing all the fans we have, we want to showcase the talent that we have, so we’re going to bring it and try to show our best selves.”

The pace was fast, and the skill level was off the charts.

“You look at the rosters at this (event) and it’s phenomenal, and so was the pace of play you saw today,” said Brianne Jenner, who played for the Calgary Inferno. “We’re all competitors and we’re all athletes and as much as we love engaging with the fans, we also like getting out there and competing. When you have players like this on a weekend here, it’s pretty exciting.”

The Flyers Skate Zone fit the bill to host such a showcase because of the area’s lack of a women’s professional team. The tour’s next stop is in Arizona next week.

Spooner believes the next great player could come from one of those cities if given exposure to the game.

“Hopefully, we’re inspiring one of those little girls to either play hockey or pursue hockey,” Spooner said.

“Hopefully, if these girls get to meet one of us or get to see one of us and say, ‘Wow, they’re a real person and I can be like that, and I can do that.’ I think that’s pretty cool.”

SPORTS

Gostisbehere continues to practice – and wait

By Mark Zimmaro SOUTH PHILLY REVIEW

S

hayne Gostisbehere is ready when No. 53 gets called.

If the Flyers continue to trend upward and into the playoffs, it’s very likely his services will be needed at some point, as very few teams make long playoff runs without escaping injury.

Gostisbehere certainly isn’t hoping an injury occurs, but it might be the only way he creeps back into the lineup in the near future, as the Flyers don’t seem willing to tweak things much while the team is running hot and playing important divisional games.

Gostisbehere continues to practice – and wait.

“The team’s winning, we’re rolling,” Gostisbehere said after practice on Saturday. “We’re in a playoff spot, and I think we can even get some home ice, so I think for us right now is to keep it rolling. My number will be called sometime, and I’ll be ready.”

Gostisbehere’s current rank in the Flyers defensive hierarchy shows exactly how fast things move in the current NHL. Just two seasons ago, Gostisbehere compiled a 65-point season, quarterbacking the Flyers’ first power-play unit, and was a fan favorite at the Wells Fargo Center.

Last season was underwhelming by comparison, as Gostisbehere accounted for just 37 points while playing the same number of games (78).

This season has also been a struggle,

as he’s posted just five goals and seven assists through 41 games. He was replaced on the top power play unit early in the season and has spent some time in the press box as a healthy scratch.

To his credit, Gostisbehere worked back into the lineup and was playing well, despite not producing the offensive numbers fans had grown accustomed to. He was a plus-3 in a 5-4 loss to Carolina on Jan. 7 but suffered a knee injury late in the game and was forced to miss a month of action. He returned for one game before tweaking it again on Feb. 6 and hasn’t played, aside from a quick two-game rehab assignment in the AHL. Gostisbehere has missed 21 NHL games since Carolina, and the Flyers are 16-4-1 in those games.

You can connect the dots.

But Gostisbehere says he’ll be ready to step in when needed.

“Right now, I feel like I’m 100 percent for the last week or so,” he said. “I think going down (to the AHL) for conditioning really opened my eyes to how good I could feel. It was a good test of a back-to-back and on the road and I felt pretty good down there.”

If the ups and downs weren’t enough, Gostisbehere also had to deal with hearing his name thrown around in trade rumors, though Flyers general manager Chuck Fletcher said he didn’t attempt to move the 26-year-old defenseman.

“That’s been the interesting one,” Fletcher said at the conclusion of the trade deadline. “I’ve been here a year and I can’t say I’m always on social

Shayne Gostisbehere is the odd man out among the Flyers‘ defensive corps. media, but I’m amazed at how often I’m trading him. I like Shayne. He’s gone through a few weeks, probably over a month now with some knee issues and he’s cleaned it up. He skated really well this weekend. I mean, right now we’re carrying seven D. He’s one of them.

He’s a guy I think can still contribute.

He can play on the power play. We were certainly not looking to move him.”

That doesn’t mean there wasn’t interest from other teams. Fletcher said he did receive calls but balked at trad-

ing Gostisbehere and his very fair $4.5 million cap hit, which runs through the 2022-23 season.

Gostisbehere would prefer to stay.

He was an original Flyers draft pick and is embedded in the community through his great work with the Pennsylvania SPCA. “It’s awesome,” he said. “My girlfriend and I go to the shelter randomly sometimes just to hang out and just see the facility and donate some dog food or do anything we can to help out. It’s

pretty fun.”

He’s hoping hockey becomes fun again soon. Now healthy, he’s ready to join the party.

“You have these abilities who make you the player that you are, and it’s really tough to go out there and try to do things when you know you’re going to feel some pain,” Gostisbehere said.

“Just to be out there now and do things freely and not feel anything and think about the game is very nice. It’s just nice to be healthy.”

CRIME BRIEFS Suspect wanted for arson after fire on McKean Street Police are looking for a suspect who allegedly set a fire to a business on the 2100 block of McKean Street on Feb. 24.

Philadelphia Police and Fire departments responded to a reported fire at about 4:06 a.m. and quickly suppressed the fire, leading to no further damage. No adjoining properties were evacuated and no injuries were reported, police said.

According to police, surveillance video shows an unknown male enter the property and set several fires inside the property. He is described as a black male, in his late 50s or early 60s, wearing

blue jean pants, a hat, multiple jacket layers and sneakers, police said.

To view this video and more, visit The Philadelphia Police YouTube Channel or http://phillypolice.com/news.

If anyone has any information about this crime or this suspect, they are asked to contact the Arson Task Force at 215-446-7875.

3 men convicted on drug charges

Three people were convicted of operating a drug trafficking group for several years in South Philadelphia.

First Assistant United States Attorney Jennifer Arbittier Williams announced last Tuesday that Philadelphia residents Antoine Clark, 30, Gerald

Spruell, 32, and Daniel Robinson, 36, were convicted of charges including conspiracy to distribute controlled substances, and distribution or possession with intent to distribute crack cocaine and heroin after a trial that lasted more than two weeks.

The charges stemmed from the group’s operation of an almost around-the-clock drug delivery service for several years along the 7th Street corridor in South Philly between 2013 and 2016.

“The defendants in this case ran a drug delivery operation akin to a ‘GrubHub’ or ‘UberEats’ for narcotics,” said Williams. “But despite their ‘friendly’ moniker, they were no friends to this community. To the contrary, they jeopardized the safety of an entire neighborhood in South Philadelphia. This conviction marks the definitive end to their enterprise, and a new beginning for the 7th

Street corridor.”

Each defendant faces a mandatory minimum sentence of 25 years’ imprisonment, and a maximum of lifetime imprisonment. According to Williams’ announcement, the defendants and their co-conspirators, known as the “Friends” and “7th Street” drug trafficking group, delivered crack cocaine and heroin to customers using a shared drug phone to communicate with customers.

FBI agents used audio and video surveillance and controlled purchases of narcotics from the defendants. Agents also intercepted phone calls and text messages from the shared drug phone, which documented the defendants’ illicit activities.

Philadelphia Police officers recovered a number of items related to drug trafficking, including two firearms and live rounds of ammunition.

Sixers may have a star on their hands in Shake Milton

Photo courtesy of the Philadelphia 76ers

After a run of standout play by Shake Milton, Sixers coach Brett Brown named him as the team’s starting point guard until Ben Simmons returns from a back injury.

By Al Thompson FOR THE REVIEW

M

aking the roster of one of the four major sports in this country is as tough as winning the lottery. Trying to land a spot as a low draft pick or a free agent is even more difficult. Of the four sports, the NBA has to be the toughest ladder to climb.

There are fewer roster spots, just five players compete at one time, and stars in the NBA make obscene amounts of money, so when a franchise commits to a massive contract, it wants that player to play and so do the fans.

All these elements make a story like that of Sixers point guard Shake Milton all the more remarkable.

Filling in for the injured Ben Simmons, Milton has raised his level of play and made it impossible for head coach

Brett Brown to keep him out of the starting lineup.

In fact, the 76ers may have discovered a bonafide star from deep on its roster.

Against the New York Knicks, Milton played over 31 minutes, scored 19 points, going 6-of-7 from the floor. The 23-year-old hit all five 3-pointers he shot, dished out four assists, blocked two shots and came up with a steal. The 76ers won 115-106.

The night before, Milton was the lone bright spot in an embarrassing 10894 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, scoring 20 points on 8-of-14 shooting from the floor, including 4-of-6 from the three-point line. He also recorded four assists and a blocked shot.

Milton had a breakout game against the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday, when he scored 39 points on 14-of-20 shooting from the floor, including 7-of9 from beyond the arc. Milton also dished out five assists and a steal in the 136-130 road loss.

After the game against the Knicks, Brown was asked what level his trust has reached with Milton.

“What a fantastic story of late,” Brown said. “It’s getting to the stage where the unique performances, performances that catch your eye, have become more and more frequent. To knock out a back-to-back is even more impressive. He’s just becoming consistently reliable on a bunch of things. The statistics we’re all going to see, but defensively, watch him sit in a stance and watch him follow a game plan. He’s deceptively long, and I think he’s improved tremendously defensively. The statistics, making shots and being our point guard. At this stage, if everybody is looking for a tournament, he’s winning it. He’s the starting point guard.

The rest of it falls into place with some other ball-handlers that are more than capable. Shake has been a needed surprise late.”

His teammates have noticed. Forward Tobias Harris was asked to talk about what’s impressed him the most about Milton’s contributions.

“Just his fearlessness on the floor,” said Harris, who scored 34 points against the Knicks. “Shake is a really good player, but he has the confidence

in himself and in his game to go out night after night and play. He goes out there, he plays, he makes shots. He’s improved his three-point shot, so anytime that we see him open we try to give him the ball. He’s been shooting it really well. He puts in a lot of work and he works really hard. I’m happy for him and every time he gets an opportunity, he takes advantage of it. Tonight, he was huge for us.”

Joel Embiid is out with a strained shoulder. He should return soon. But Simmons could be out for a while with his back injury. Until then, Milton, who was drafted by the Dallas Mavericks in the second round in the 2018 NBA draft, then traded to the 76ers, was asked if Brown talked to him about coming in and starting.

“When somebody goes down, especially somebody who plays your position,” Milton said. “You kind of have an idea that your number might be called.”

Milton was asked what he does to stay ready.

“It’s definitely tough, but just making sure that you’re staying in shape,” Milton said. “We do a good job of playing the low-minute guys and we are playing pickup and making sure that we are staying ready. We are just making sure that we are super locked into what the team is doing defensively and offensively so that when your number is called, you’re ready to step in and make an impact.”

Milton said he appreciates the attention he is getting from Brown and his teammates.

“It feels good. It’s definitely just a process,” he said. “I’m still learning a lot, so every game I feel like I’m able to take away something new and learn from it. I put that on my board as something to get better at. Tomorrow, we will watch film and see the mistakes that I made and see how I’m able to change those and put out an even better effort next time.“ The Sixers are struggling on the road and with keeping their best players on the floor. The team needs a spark to make a run to improve its seeding in the upcoming playoffs. Sixers fans hope it’s Milton who will “shake” things up. •• Follow Al Thompson on Twitter @ thompsoniii

Say this prayer for 3 days, promise publication and your favor will be granted.
