ons of people would bark if the region’s trees began disappearing en masse. The Pennsylvania Horticultural Society craves no such vanishing and wants plenty of plants to aid the environment, beautify streets and preserve homeowners’ finances. The 184-year-old organization helped to accomplish those Friday, welcoming 42 volunteer groups to acquire trees from The Philadelphia Navy Yard’s Building 14, 4921 S. 16th St. The gathering began at 9 a.m. in the space the nonprofit entity leases to store materials for its annual international flower show.

more possible. The 15 students at South Philadelphia High School, 2101 S. Broad St., have embraced technology, and it has reciprocated, as they have qualified for the April 28 to 30 U.S. FIRST — For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology — Robotics FRC National Championship at the St. Louis-based Edward Jones Dome.

To the Editor: The price of gas in our area has hit an all-time high. What is George Bush doing? Oh, I’m sorry, he’s hasn’t been the president for the last three years. I do remember how the prices went up because he was in bed with the oil companies. How about Bush getting us into Libya? That makes three counties we’re fighting. Oops, Sorry again, Bush only had us in two countries. Let’s go back in time and remember the liberals wanted to impeach Bush because all he thought about was his wealthy friends. Jeffrey Immelt, the CEO of GE, has funded much of Mr. Obama’s campaign. Look and see what they paid in taxes last year. The answer is a big fat zero. They’re buddies for sure, and the last time I looked, GE was a pretty big company comparable to the oil companies. How about the unemployment rate? It is certainly higher than when Obama took office and he made many promises to keep in under 8 percent. He hasn’t even been close and along with the high gas prices, inflation is now being seen at the stores as prices of commodities are going up. Our country’s debt is unbelievable as he keeps spending trillions of dollars with not much to show for it. Since Mr. Bush would have been hung in center square for this, why isn’t Mr. Obama? When will the news be reported accurately instead of protecting this guy? A more important question is: Why are they protecting this guy? Ron Mento Sr. South Philadelphia
A history lesson To the Editor: Staff writer Joseph Myers wrote about the local businesses helping out East Asians trying to recover from the earthquake (“Raising funds for Japan, April 14). Have people forgotten about the sneak attack the Japanese pulled on Pearl Harbor in 1941 and pulled the United States into World War II? I don’t want to hear that was then, this now. I say what goes around, comes
around. The people in this country need the help and attention. People have to stop worrying about other countries and worry about their own. Walter Van Horn South Philadelphia
Still seeking answers To the Editor: I’m writing in praise of Robert Burke’s fine letter (“A not so super site,” April 7) about the athletic facility on Bigler Street. I was disappointed that none of our elected officials cared to respond. As evidenced by Mr. Burke’s fine treatise, we should demand accountability — as taxpayers and community members it is our right. The line has been clearly drawn in the sand. Which one of our community leaders will heed the call and answer these questions posed about the fine facility denied to a great, large majority who support it financially? Frank Baldino South Philadelphia
Rewarding all around To the Editor: When Philadelphians recycle, they help the environment, their city and their pocketbook. Through the Philadelphia Recycling Rewards Program, citizens take more environmentally-conscious action, and for their effort, they earn rewards. This initiative allows Philadelphians to earn points for recycling, which can be redeemed for discounts and deals from hundreds of local and national retailers, restaurants, pharmacies, grocers and more. A bar-coded sticker will come in the mail. Just place it on your recycling bin, and you are on the way to savings. Not only does this program make environmental sense, it makes fiscal sense, too. Philadelphia spends tens of millions of dollars every year sending trash to landfills. Every ton of waste sent to a landfill costs the City about $66. On the other hand, every ton recycled earns us $65. Pound-by-pound,
ton-by-ton savings seen by the City really adds up. Philadelphia Recycling Rewards is one more step forward in our quest to become the greenest city in the United States. Join more than 124,000 of your neighbors who participate in this innovative program. These engaged Philadelphians support our local businesses, help the City save money and earn valuable rewards themselves. It only takes a few easy steps to sign up. To get started, visit www. PhillyRecyclingPAYS.com or call 1-888-769-7690. Clarena I.W. Tolson Philadelphia Streets Commissioner

n the 1950’s, it was all hunky-dory for women to quit their jobs, move to a house in the ‘burbs, don an apron and dedicate themselves to being a full-time housewife. But after The Feminist Mystique, burning bras, birth control and Gloria Steinem’s “I can’t breed in captivity� quote when discussing whether or not she could have children while married, Gen Y women face an entire world of opportunities and choices. We can have it all. We can be the highpowered attorney and the soccer mom. But do we necessarily really want it all? In a 2006 poll done by The New York Times, more than 60 percent of the fe-
male undergrads attending Yale polled that they’d quit their jobs in order to raise kids. Are these women throwing away the decades of toil their foremothers went through in order to earn the luxury and freedom to even be able to have it all? Gen Y women suffer from extreme pressure to create a life that reflects the choices we have in today’s society. We’re expected to go to college, earn that MBA, work tireless hours to afford designer shoes and handbags and haircuts. We need to marry the perfect dapper gentleman and move into a stylish flat in the city and have beautiful bouncy babies. We then take a week off for maternity leave, kiss our newborn on the head and then merrily skip back to our jobs to begin the process of juggling career, baby and social life. In a world where both parents are expected to work, is there any room for stayat-home moms? If the Gen Y woman does decide to quit her job to stay at home with the children, can the family even afford to live off of only ... SPR

Lower Moyamensing man allegedly stole about $437,000 from two of his former employers where he oversaw payroll and distributed paychecks in a scheme dating back to 2001. John R. Pignotti Jr., captain of the Hegman String Band, Second and Wharton streets, from 1986 to 2000, is believed to have created false names and clients and then cashed the checks issued to those fictitious people and companies at two businesses that oversaw security guard placement, according to court documents. Between March 20, ’01 and Oct. 8 ’08 Pignotti worked as a security firm branch manager in Bala Cynwyd where he supposedly used past employees’ personal information such as names, addresses and social security numbers to make inflated payrolls, which he then sent to the company’s Lexington, N.Y. headquarters, according to court documents. He allegedly cashed the fraudulent checks and kept the funds that totaled about $111,000. Upon relocating to a similar place of business in Philadelphia around Oct. 9, ’08, Pignotti is believed to have created fake names of security guards who worked for fake clients such as “H&B Towers” and “B&C Arcade” and, after sending the bogus sign-in sheets and payroll records to a Long Island, N.Y. agency, he allegedly cashed about $326,000 in faux checks through April 9, ’10, according to court documents. He is believed to have tried to conceal the scheme by sending invoices to post office boxes he created for each of the clients and made small payments by sending U.S. Postal Service money orders in the name of the allegedly made-up companies for outstanding invoices. Pignotti, 50, of the 900 block of Daly Street, was charged with mail fraud and aggravated identity theft and, if convicted, could face up to 22 years in prison. A conviction would result in a mandatory two-year jail sentence with three years of supervised release, a $500,000 fine and a $200 special assessment, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.

Seeking alleged home invader The U.S Marshal Service is offering a reward in turn for information leading to the arrest of a suspect in a Point Breeze home invasion last week. The federal agency is seeking Laquan McIntyre, aka “E,” whose last known address is in North Philly on the 2500 block of North 31st Street, who allegLaquan edly entered a residence McIntyre on the 1800 block of South 20th Street April 11 at 8:45 p.m. with two accomplices, U.S. Marshal Fugitive Task Force Supervisor James Burke said. The trio is believed to have duct taped and shot an occupant in addition to taking weapons from the home. While inside the home, one of the culprits’ gens fired grazing the chest of a 21-year-old woman during the duct taping Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. She was taken to Methodist Hospital where she was treated and released. It is unknown whether the two men in the home — ages 25 and 27 — were also duct taped. There is a $1,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of McIntyre, who is 6-foot-1, 150 pounds, with black hair, brown eyes and a tattoo of “Dennis” on his right forearm. To report information, call U.S. Marshal Service tip line at 866-865-8477.
Steak-out Two men sat at the bar of a Whitman restaurant and waited to rob the place shortly before its closing. Before the duo entered LongHorn Steakhouse, 2120 S. Columbus Boulevard, at 11:30 p.m. Friday, only four patrons and 10 employees remained, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Before closing, the manager locked the front door and checked the bathroom for any remaining customers, but was greeted by a man armed with a black
Police Report semi-automatic pistol, who demanded money. As they exited the bathroom, the other man placed a white bandana over his face, waived a dark-colored revolver around and gathered the onlookers into the kitchen. The manager handed over about $2,400 and the pair fled, Tolliver said. The first offender was described as black with a light complexion; in his 20s; 5-foot10; thin; with facial hair and short hair; and wearing a dark-colored clothing and a dark blue baseball cap. The second was described as black with a dark complexion, in his 20s, stocky and wearing dark-colored clothing and a white bandana.

Dash of inspiration
The more than 450 members of David’s Parrot Party team united as one Sunday in front of the Philadelphia Museum of Art for the 16th annual Dash for Organ and Tissue Donor Awareness.

L
osing loved ones unexpectedly can bring unexplainable sorrows. Time seems to be the only alternative that subdues the melancholy absence left behind, yet, as Beverly Kendrick found out, closure can come in many different ways. Having lost her only child, 20-year-old Dereck Lowery-Kendrick, a 2009 graduate of Horace Furness High School, 1900 S. Third St., was shot during a February attempted robbery in North Philly. A doctor asked her about donating her son’s organs. At first, she was uncertain, but her final decision would bring her some needed buoyancy. “I never have been an organ donor or knew about it, but when my son passed and they told me it could save four lives, wanted to do it,” Kendrick, a resident of the 1900 block of Hoffman street, said. “It has made me so proud that even though
my son died, there are four people alive because of him.” Receiving thank you letters from those who used Kendricks’ heart, kidneys and right lung, the Kendrick family has had a sense of closure, she said, they could not have received anywhere else. “It’s just really unexplainable,” she said. “When I was told that his death was not in vain, it felt good.” PATRICIA NELSON, AN advocate for organ donation awareness, invited Kendrick to be a part of the 16th annual Dash for Organ and Tissue Donor Awareness Sunday that launched at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. They were two of more than 450 members of David’s Parrot Party team — established in 2007 after Nelson lost her son, David Jr. The women walked in honor of their sons and Alvin Way, a Furness student who passed away after running in the ’09 dash.

Nelson, a grants compliance manager at Furness, has taken part in the Gift of Life Donor Program race for the past four years commemorating her son. Nelson’s dedication to the Gift of Life Club has seen considerable growth but it is stories like Kendrick’s that make her the proudest. “In that moment, when Beverly found out he would not survive and decided to donate his organs, I know it must have been hard,” Nelson, of Second and Greenwich streets, said. “This [past] Sunday when she was with us at the dash, we hoped her spirits were uplifted. Uniting people like this is what it’s all about.”
The Parrot Party team sported T-shirts with Kendrick’s name on the back along with pins raising awareness in his name. Kendrick has now become an advocate as well. “I would just like to say how important it is to know about donating. I feel that a lot of people are wary about it because that is how I felt in the beginning. I didn’t know until my son died, but other peoples’ lives can be changed for good and it is such a great feeling to be a part of helping others,” Kendrick said.

These fully attentive team members have given the Rambots three huge reasons to believe their potential trip to Missouri will prove fruitful. s ta f f p h o t o b y g r e g b e z a n i s
RAMBOTS continued from page 1 Rookie All-Star Award, will, finances permitting, take them to the Midwest to test their creation, the Ramboogie, against other notable machines. “I could never have imagined being in a position to compete in St. Louis,” Anne Urevick, the team’s coach and a computer science instructor at the Lower Moyamensing school, said Tuesday as six of her charges addressed another robot. Their main device, whose name derives from the Ram — the school’s mascot — waits for them in St. Louis. They built it over six weeks in January and February and used it to finish 31st out of 60 teams two weeks ago. Inventor Dean Kamen founded FIRST in 1989 to encourage students to explore engineering and technology careers. The New Hampshire-based organization, which includes various scholarship programs, debuted its robotics competition in 1992. Urevick and her students could be just one week away from helping FIRST to celebrate its 20th season, needing to acquire $3,800 to let the Ramboogie offer its skills to the two teams it will join in an alliance. “We had not entertained the idea of having an FRC (FIRST Robotics Competition) team because having one is so expensive,” Urevick said. John Glowa and J.J. Biel-Goebel, engineers with The Boeing Company, a multinational aerospace and defense corporation, joined the Rambots as mentors and helped to secure $6,500 for them to register for the regional challenge and to acquire a starter kit. “Along with promoting science and technology, we see our involvement as an opportunity to counter negative perceptions of this school,” Glowa, of the 1800
block of South Alder Street, said of his company’s role. Through a colleague, Glowa was able to obtain a portion of the $11,000 tab for the national battle. Other funds have come through Lockheed Martin, a renowned global aerospace, defense, security and advanced technology company; the Comcast Corporation; private donations; and alumni contributions. Because the School District of Philadelphia requires 30 days’ notice to consider granting funds for an out-of-the-city trip, the Rambots must rush for finances. According to Urevick, their principal, Otis D. Hackney III, is working on an appeal, and Biel-Goebel took students to City Hall after school Friday to seek assistance. The latter learned 1st District Councilman Frank DiCicco may provide financial relief. “It would be such a great story for this school, in its first year with an FRC team, to go to St. Louis to compete,” Biel-Goebel said. IF THE RAMBOTS make it to The Show-Me State, they will be able to show off their lauded brainchild. Measuring 30 inches wide and 43 long, it surprised the opposition at Temple by using its wings to reach a length of 84 inches. Each year, the FIRST competition devises a new task for the participants. The organizers chose Logo Motion as 2011’s game, meaning robots took to the 27-by54-foot playing field to hang inflatable plastic circles, triangles and squares to form the FIRST logo. Usually an offensive force, the Ramboogie blocked scoring attempts with its flaps and saw its contemporary gadgets score points. “The wings served as our surprise ending,” Urevick, a South Jersey resident who has spent three of her 23 years with the district at Southern, said of helping the Rambots’ alliance to triumph.
News Uniting with other squads eliminates egos and promotes “cooperation,” Kamen’s coinage pairing “cooperation” and “competition.” The term reflects the competitive yet cordial relationship among teams. That partnership includes the sharing of equipment and encouraging others to heighten their scientific acumen. Urevick and the Rambots used their receptivity to novelty to be literally bright contenders. “I love injecting new technology into my curriculum,” Urevick said. Students served light-emitting diodes (LEDs) into their shirts to give themselves luminosity for the Philadelphia Regional. If they make the trek to St. Louis, Urevick stated their tops would have more light sources. “We really want to show how bright we are in South Philly,” she said. The learners would enjoy a robo prom on the last day of their adventure and would likely encounter Academy Awardwinning actor Morgan Freeman. They would join the more than 300 teams for their 135-second matches and would look to score points and scholarships, as FIRST offers more than $14 million in aid. Junior Anthony Wallace of 23rd and Morris streets and his mates spend many hours after school to work on robotics, the study and use of robots. “Being on the team has helped me to
work with power tools and makes me more interested in game design as a career,” he said. “I’d felt drawn to science and technology before, but this has enhanced my interest,” junior and Center City resident Richard Taylor, the Ramboogie’s main driver for the last regional matches, said of the club’s role in fostering plans for a chemical engineering career. “We talk about robotics constantly,” junior Salina Ruth, who used conductive thread to sew on the LEDs, said of the members’ increasing fellowship. The resident of Chadwick and Moore streets desires a forensics career. Interested in automotive engineering, Cartier Wilks is “our team spirit,” according to Urevick. “Not many people around school talk about us,” the resident of the 600 block of Oregon Avenue said. “If we do well in St. Louis, that had better change.” SPR To help the Rambots, send checks to South Philadelphia High School, 2101 S.

TREE PLANTING continued from page 1
1,000 bare-root trees that they planted Saturday and Sunday, the latter being the first day of Earth Week. Their participation furthered the society’s 1-month-old Plant One Million campaign, an initiative aiming to add one million trees to 13 counties in the tri-state region. “Everyone is so pumped to assist,” Michael Leff, a society employee, said just after the seven-hour distribution began. “It is almost like a party atmosphere.” Leff serves as program manager for TreeVitalize, a seven-year-old statewide public/private partnership with the society heading its southeastern Pennsylvania operations. Separate from the main campaign, the organization works through the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources to overcome the loss of millions of trees to development. Leff and his colleagues welcomed the trees from Springville, N.Y.’s Schichtel’s Nursery Inc. April 13. More than 50 types awaited Friday’s throng, with South Philadelphia’s residents eager to indulge in the variety. The Pennsport Tree Tenders group nabbed 18 trees, mostly for residential planting between Front and Fifth streets from Snyder to Washington avenues. “We have lost four mature trees to age and disease in the last three years,” leader Amy Weidner of the 300 block of Dickinson Street said. “I knew we had to do something.” She and neighbor Margaret Barnes-Delcolle decided to attend the society’s ninehour Tree Tenders course, through which they learned the elements of tree biology, identification, planting, pruning, root care and urban stresses on trees. They also earned tips on community organizing, bits that pulled in Jim Williams. “I love helping my neighbors,” Williams, who loaded the various trees onto his truck, said. “Amy wants to beautify the area, and I want to assist.” Weidner, who planted 12 trees last fall, had 9-month-old daughter Harper and 2-year-old son Garrison with her. The eager children watched as their mother helped Williams. Though the leader of the community group, Weidner feels anyone can excel at caring for the environment. “Margaret and I are just two people who wanted to change our street. All someone needs to do is come out at most two times a year,” she said of the spring and autumn plantings, “and give the tree 15 gallons of water once a week.” The March through December aquatic applications count among the many guidelines those with arboreal interests must meet. “We receive numerous requests for street placement,” Leff said.
Members of The Bel Arbor Tree Tenders were among the first arboreal advocates to claim their bare-roots trees. The weekend allowed the Bella Vista group and their fellow tree lovers to help the City’s Greenworks Philadelphia plan.

Those petitions go to the Parks and Recreation Department, which determines if a site is a proper location. The office and society establish an apt tree species for the spot. To stand a better chance at approval, applicants must consider distances from corners, assorted signs, poles, hydrants, driveways, storm water drains, manhole covers, utility lines and other trees. With so many potential obstacles, Philadelphia possesses a lackluster tree canopy cover — the area of land shaded by trees — of 16 percent. The Plant One Million campaign strives to boost the citywide figure to 30 percent. Sadly, South Philadelphia owns the lowest at 1.8 percent, which the society’s public relations manager Alan Jaffe attributes to tight, densely populated streets. However, Friday’s event stoked his confidence. “Since we began Plant One Million, South Philadelphia has responded well. Look at the number of groups from the area today,” he said of representatives from Bella Vista, East Passyunk, Lower Moyamensing, Newbold, Passyunk Square, Pennsport, Point Breeze, Queen Village, South of South and West Passyunk. TWO SPRINGS AGO, Mayor Michael Nutter released Greenworks Philadelphia, his sustainability plan for making Philadelphia America’s greenest city, which intends to swell the tree count by 300,000 by 2015. Plant One Million is receiving the time
and talent of residents in Bucks, Chester, Delaware and Montgomery counties, too. New Jersey and Delaware will join Pennsylvania by planting 700,000 trees. Burlington, Camden, Gloucester, Mercer and Salem counties will lead The Garden State, with Kent, New Castle and Sussex counties beautifying The First State. “Our partners and funding sources are increasing,” Jaffe, who noted that PHS oversaw the installation of 20,000 trees along streets, parks, schools and other public lands and 70,000 more in riparian areas to protect streams and rivers from ’04 through last year, said. The latter keeps those interested in the bottom line happy, but Jaffe knows the former, which includes volunteer groups like Friday’s arrivals, serves as the root of the infatuation with tree planting that has flourished over the last two decades. “We need trees in the ground now,” Jaffe said. “With so many environmental and economic challenges, trees can be a huge asset.” The US Forest Service supports Jaffe’s notion. It calculates that 100 mature trees seize 77,000 gallons of rainwater annually; filter out impurities, thus keeping rivers and streams healthy; and remove 1.2 tons of carbon dioxide yearly. A large residential tree can reduce home air conditioning costs by as much as 30 percent and add 10 percent to one’s property value. Friday’s attendees used the dispensed
trees to enhance residences, recreation centers and schoolyards. Andrew Emma, co-chair of the Tree Tenders Advisory Group, arrived near day’s end to retrieve the Passyunk Square group’s 30 trees. A resident of the 1300 block of South Ninth Street, he highlighted his sixth planting by securing cherry, dogwood and redbud trees, among others. “We have a roving list of 200 people who help,” Emma said of his massive group. He had about 30 volunteers for Saturday’s gathering at its central location, Capitolo Playground, Ninth and Federal streets. From there, he had the helpers spread out, with a focus on planting east of Passyunk Avenue. Knowing youths can delight in nature’s bounty, he invited children from Ken Crest Services South Center to become tree stewards. The facility based at 504 Morris Street specializes in caring for developmentally disabled children. “We’ve witnessed increased receptivity,” Emma said of the mostly residential plantings. “One tree inspires another, which inspires another. It’s a welcomed reaction.” SPR To learn about starting a tree tender group, visit www.pennsylvaniahorticulturalsociety.org.

R
eed Kendall’s newest album under the name “Up the Chain” was touted by CBS Philly as having “shades of everything from Jack Johnson to Van Morrison in his chiming acoustic pop songs.” The lead singer, however, isn’t sure exactly how to describe it. “We were just sitting here writing. I’m here with one of my friends and he’s helping me write a onesheet,” Kendall, 26, said earlier this month. “I think it said something about ‘uplifting.’ That’s why I needed help, because I can’t write this stuff.” Despite joking about his inability to verbalize his sound, the singer/songwriter has put together original tracks on Up the Chain’s first studio album, “Holy, Open, Drying Road.” The record features Kendall crooning on all the original songs he wrote

Lifestyles or cowrote while also playing guitar. “‘Up the Chain’ is kind of what the project is called,” Kendall, who lives at Seventh Street and Washington Avenue, said. “It’s me and a bunch of studio musicians. I tried to put a band together, but the band wasn’t the same group for two shows in a row for a year or even more. “It started to be regular faces. This record solidified the five guys.” The Feb. 17 album release show featured the core group of Up the Chain and Kendall, who does all the bookings and is planning a tour with the group in the coming months. “We’re playing about 10 dates in April and we’re looking to do a 10-day tour at the end of May. Going south, but it’s not entirely booked so far,” Reed said. Despite the fact that playing lead singer, writer and tour manager is “not easy,” Kendall is passionate about the music and feels the current release has legs enough to warrant all the time and energy. “I’m just trying to get it out to as many people as possible at this point. I’m hoping to connect with people,” he said. “This album is still very new. I want to do a lot of touring on this before even thinking about the next record.” KENDALL,

before I wanted to do music as a career. It was more just for fun.” His hobby eventually evolved into a professional passion and he brought together Up the Chain in 2008. The moniker has alternately identified Kendall as a solo act, as well as a rotating cast of Philadelphia musicians who came together to play under that title. With the newest release, the frontman believes he has solidified the group members. “[Up the Chain is] the name of a floor hockey team in high school. The name came from ‘Space Ghost.’ It’s a scene from an interview with Willie Nelson,” Kendall said. The five members who performed on the new album have a tentative gig scheduled at Connie’s Ric Rac, 1132 S. Ninth St., July 8. Kendall, who has only lived in the area for a year, said his block has “a bunch of really cool people” and playing at local venues has been important for the musician. However, the new release has made him want to expand his reach. “Well, we’ve played a lot in Philly and I feel like as part of the natural growth process, our next step is doing what we’ve done here elsewhere,” he said.

After surviving a first massacre, Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell), right, returns home only to be greeted once again by Ghostface (Dane Farwell), left.
By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer
F
rom setting to characters to cheeky lingo that makes you giggle while you groan, “Scream 4” reworks what always worked best in this self-reflexive slasher franchise: The ground-laying, if not quite groundbreaking, elements of the first installment. Coinciding with the hometown leg of a book tour for star-survivor-turned-tell-all-author Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell), the events unfold in good ol’ Woodsboro, Calif., where married series regulars Dewey Riley (David Arquette) and Gale Weathers (Courteney Cox) have settled down amidst a new generation of cinephiles and scream queens. Written and directed, respectively, by returning duo Kevin Williamson and Wes Craven, the satisfying fourquel calls attention to how well the Mayberry-esque locale lent itself to the spirit and suspense of the 15-year-old original, with its fast-traveling whispers, its cozy microcosm of suspects, its hearkening back to more iconic towns like Haddonfield, N.J., and its handsome, expansive homes, whose large windows and intriguing floor plans welcome curious cameras and bumps in the night. More “screammake” than “shriekquel” (to quote a new resident geek), “Scream 4” also recasts volume one’s principals with fresh meat (including game dames like Hayden Panettiere and Emma Roberts), and it’s the first of the follow-ups to come close to the hipness and humor that initially slayed audiences. It’s instantly dated by technology overkill (live-feed webcasts, Ghostface voice apps), which hogs the creativity that should’ve gone into the death scenes (it’s all just fast and furious stabbings). But not since Billy Loomis and his lanky henchman diced
up their peers have the homicidal motives been more convincing, or the whodunit process more rewarding. Intended to kick off a new trilogy, “4” further repairs the film-within-a-film device that crippled “2” and gutted “3,” plausibly reintroducing it as a midnightshowing sensation a la “Rocky Horror,” of which the on-screen teen community proudly takes ownership. Real-life Ghostface buffs can finally do the same with a “Scream” sequel. The latest is a bloody valentine to fans of the first — which is more than this fan hoped for.
Scream 4 R Now playing in area theaters Three reels out of four
Recommended Rental The King’s Speech R Now available While it certainly didn’t deserve to walk away with the Oscar for Best Picture, the pristine period drama “The King’s Speech” boasts a heroic lead performance from Colin Firth, who brings great sensitivity to the role of stuttering royal King George VI. The latest in a lineage of films that serve to humanize heads of state, “Speech” makes up for its lack of risk with fine acting and technical prowess.

‘Scream’ for it
SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I April 21, 2011
ne of the top-rated shows on television is “Dancing with the Stars,” a program that husbands and wives can watch together (the wives for the dancing, the husbands for ogling the leggy female dancers). Each Monday night, my wife and I settle on our living room sofa to watch people, who can’t dance, try to dance. Using the term “stars” to identify the contestants is admittedly a stretch. We’re not talking Cameron Diaz and Matt Damon here. There is Kendra Wilkinson whose main claim to fame is her marriage to former Eagles’ player, Hank Baskett, who himself is not exactly a star and obviously can make a pass better than he can catch one. Kendra also is known for making two sex videos, the first one reportedly “embarrassed” her so much that she made a second. Recently Kendra blamed her poor performance on “raging hormones.” It wasn’t certain whether she was referring to her dancing or her sex videos. Other “stars” include someone named Mike Catherwood who works with Dr. Drew on “Loveline.” Catherwood mercifully was excused from the show after the first round, but not so much because of his dancing but for his anonymity. Kirstie Alley took a spill one week and lost her shoe the next and still continues on the show because all of us want to see what she does for an encore. There is also rap artist Romeo, who is Master P’s son, who is attempting to redeem his father’s inept appearance in a prior season. In 30 seconds, Master P’s inept pasodoble became legendary on YouTube. Originally, I thought the saddest moment in the show’s history came when former astronaut Buzz Aldrin proved a walk on the moon does not necessarily prepare you to do the pasodoble. But this season, another of my idols, Sugar Ray Leonard, reached a sadder end when he was bumped from the show after trying to dance to Tchaikovsky (I kid you not). Tom Bergeron hosts the show with the realization this is the easiest money a man can make other than appearing in a Wilkinson sex video. His co-host is Brooke Burke, a former Sports Illustrated swimsuit model and a previous contestant on the show, proves her superlative interviewing technique when she asks a contestant, “so how do you feel about the judges calling you an idiot with two left feet?” Like “American Idol,” the show features themes. The most unfortunate choice
was classical. You haven’t lived until you watch people dancing to an overwrought pop rendition of “Beethoven’s Fifth.” As if ballet didn’t take enough of a hit with the lesbian scene in “Black Swan” (which is the only part of the film I have seen a few dozen times), the show did a specially adapted-version of “Swan Lake.” Beethoven should have rolled over and given Tchaikovsky the news. I confess, not being knowledgeable about the art of dance. Until “Dancing with the Stars,” I would have guessed a pasodoble was the place in Mexico where Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid met their fate. Actually, it is a type of Spanish marching music played as bullfighters enter the ring. “Dancing with the Stars” loves to dress the male like a matador with a bare chest. Sometimes it works. Other times when the dancer is Kenny Mayne, it has the potential for starting another Spanish-American War. Similarly, the female contestants dress very sexy. It can be exciting, but then there was Cloris Leachman. The three judges on the show are Carrie Ann Inaba, Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli. Len is the tough judge with the obligatory British accent, sort of a well-dressed, Simon-Cowell type. Bruno makes wild gestures, stands on the desk, and, one night, will undoubtedly take flight in spasms of joy. Carrie Ann’s job is to soothe the ruffled feelings of contestants after Len and Bruno have shredded their confidence. Carrie Ann is someone who could find something redeeming in Kate Gosselin. The public votes by phone and often directly contradicts the votes of the judges. It is necessary the public perform this function, otherwise there would be no suspense about why Kelly Osbourne or Bristol Palin would keep getting invited back. The background of each of the contestants is told with great drama, as if they have overcome supreme challenges to become the mediocrities they are today. It may not be easy being green, but apparently it is even less easy being mediocre. We see glimpses of contestants crying or struggling during rehearsals. Last season, “Dirty Dancing” star Jennifer Grey had a succession of health problems, but valiantly overcame them to win. Right before her winning performance, she fought off a vicious attack of sinus drip. Some of the contestants become angry with their instructors, some have implied “love affairs” such as Erin Andrews and her instructor Maksim Chmerkovskiy, which ended coincidentally when the season ended. I would like to see a spinoff where the losing contestants are sent to another planet to see if the change in gravitational pull helps them become better dancers. Maybe they can call it “Dancing on Mars.” SPR

Sampan’s dim sum By Phyllis Stein-Novack R e s ta u r a n t R e v i e w e r
T
he day before Passover begins, some Jews deliberately woof down forbidden foods to tide them over for the next eight days. My cousin Jane and her father dine on the biggest, greasiest cheesesteak they can find. For me, it’s a tossup: Pizza or Asian food. Those who tweet helped me to make my decision. I learned Sampan, Michael Schulson’s modern Asian restaurant now serves dim sum on weekends. Huzzah! What an inspired idea. I love dim sum, but I’ve always traveled to Chinatown where the experience is big, noisy yet colorful. I enjoyed several meals at Sampan last year. The idea of savoring these small casings of dough in a quiet place set my taste buds in the right mode. Sampan was quiet at 4:45 p.m. There were a few people at the bar and Sandy and I had one dining room all to ourselves for a while. Our server explained the dim sum cart has a few items — all for $6 — and we can order from the extended dim sum list. I sipped a jumbo Rob Roy ($15) while Sandy enjoyed her usual Absolute straight up ($9). Since Schulson is new to the dim-sum game, he kept the offerings small on the ugly, clumsy wooden cart a waiter pushes around the restaurant. Two types of steamed buns, steamed ribs and chicken feet were available. I do not cringe at chicken feet; my mother and grandmother always included them in making chicken soup, but certain dining rules are on the table whenever Sandy joins me. We ordered pork steamed buns and another Coffee/Café/Sweets Caffe Chicco: 2532 S. Broad St., 215-334-3100, $

version prepared with corned beef. The tasty pork buns were filled with spiced shallots, mint and a hint of sweet chili sauce. The corned beef bun lacked flavor and I needed a microscope to find the beef. Sauerkraut and mustard were included — an Asian version of the time-honored Reuben sans Swiss cheese. It was time to order from the dim sum menu. Six wild mushroom dumplings ($6) were nestled in a big, white deep bowl. The mixture was a little bland, but I liked the pickled mushrooms, bit of panko for crunch and citrus foam. Sandy turns her nose up at duck, but since meaty shreds of boneless duck were disguised in the egg roll, she had no clue. Three plump rolls ($6) were filled with cucumber, scallion and nicely-but-lightly spiced duck. Though tasty, the duck egg rolls were a little greasy. Since Sandy finally tried sushi, I knew she would try the hamachi ceviche ($6). This was the best dish of the day. This firm white fish was chopped, “cooked” in citrus juice, placed into three ceramic Asian soup spoons and topped with tempura flakes, ponzu and a drop of oil. “This is really delicious,” Sandy said. “I never ate food from a spoon like this before.” (Sandy needs to get out more). She never tried satay either so we sa-

vored Korean barbecued beef ($8). The boneless short rib arrived medium-rare as ordered. It was boneless, sliced and threaded onto three wooden scores. Kim che can be tricky. Sometimes it is too strong or too spicy but this version was spot on. I loved the marriage of cool kim che and warm, rare beef and could have eaten another order. We ended dinner with kim che fried rice ($6) and Brussels sprouts ($4). Both portions were so generous, they were carefully packed to go. The rice contained a perfectly fried egg on top. “I don’t want any egg,” my sister said. The waiter carefully placed the egg on my plate and we helped ourselves to the fried rice prepared with small sweet shrimp, scallions and shallots. Fried rice is
often greasy, but this version was perfect. The sprouts were roasted with fish sauce and puffed rice. They imparted a slightly pickled flavor, which I liked. I hope Schulson will add more dishes to the dim sum cart in the future. Two-and-a-half tips of the toque to Sampan. SPR

Time to get hopping With Easter three days away, don’t stress over the great recipe hunt. Here are ideas on how to make Sunday’s feast with family and friends a memorable one.
By Phyllis Stein-Novack Food Columnist
E
aster is three days away and some are shuffling through recipes, preparing dishes in advance and asking friends or family members to bring a side dish or dessert for dinner. The meal often reflects a specific culture and, in many families, tradition. Italians and Greeks favor lamb for the centerpiece of their Easter table. Ham or roast pork is the entrée of choice in English, Irish and German homes. Roast turkey or capon can also take pride of placement on the Easter table. Since the holiday is late this year, local asparagus and early spring peas have arrived in the market. I’ve been roasting asparagus and potatoes in the oven along with a chicken and marvel how easy it is. They also could be pan roasted on top of the stove in the same skillet. The following dishes are from Judith Huxley’s “Table for Eight.” Each dish can be easily doubled.
■ Baked Ham ■ Ingredients:
Half of a whole ham, preferably the butt end, weighing about 5 pounds, wiped down thoroughly with paper towels 1/2 cup of water
Directions: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Place the ham fat side up in a roasting
pan and add the water. Bake for about 18 minutes per pound. Serves eight.
■ Raisin Sauce ■ Ingredients: 1/2 cup of raisins 1/3 cup of currants 1-1/3 cups of dry red wine 1 tablespoon of flour 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon of sugar 1/4 teaspoon of ground cloves 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg 1 tablespoon of parsley, minced 1 tablespoon of celery leaves, minced 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon soaked in 1 tablespoon of cold water
Directions: Soak the raisins and currants overnight in the wine. Drain the wine and reserve it. In the top of a double boiler, mix together the next seven ingredients. Stir in the wine and cook over hot water, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Add the raisins and currants and stir in soaked cinnamon. Let the sauce boil for one minute and taste for seasoning. Serve warm with the ham. Makes about two cups.
■ Minted New Potatoes ■ Ingredients: 16 small new potatoes, of uniform size, scrubbed and unpeeled 1 teaspoon of kosher salt
2 tablespoons of butter, melted 1 tablespoon of fresh mint, minced
Directions: Place the potatoes in a pot containing an inch of boiling water along with the salt. Cover and cook until tender, for about 15 minutes. Drain. Place in a serving dish, drizzle with the butter and sprinkle with the mint. Serves eight.
■ Asparagus ■ with Orange Butter Ingredients: 24 asparagus spears, trimmed (ends removed, if desired) 2 tablespoons of butter 1 tablespoon of orange rind, grated Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste Directions: Lay the asparagus in a skillet. Cover with cold water, bring to a boil, lower to simmer and cook for about six minutes. Drain and refresh under cold water. Melt the butter in the skillet. Add the orange rind, salt and pepper. Add the asparagus and heat through. Serves eight.
■ Carrots ■ with Butter and Parsley Ingredients: 3 pounds of fresh baby carrots, peeled and with the green tops removed 1 tablespoon of sugar Pinch of kosher salt 5 tablespoons of butter 2 tablespoons of parsley, chopped
Directions: Place the carrots in a pot and add all of the ingredients except for the parsley. Add enough water to barely cover them. Bring to a boil and cook, uncovered, until the carrots are tender but still crisp and the liquid has a syrupy consistency. This should take about 15 minutes depending upon the thickness of the carrots. Watch them carefully because you do not want to overcook them. Top with the parsley. Serves eight. Note from Phyllis: You can prepare the carrots in advance and gently reheat them at serving time. Make sure they do not burn. You may need to add a bit of butter to the pan before serving.

NOVENA TO ST. JUDE
Oh Holy St. Jude, apostle and Martyr, great in virtue & rich in miracles, near kinsman of Jesus Christ, faithful intercessor of all who invoke your special patronage in time of need. To you I have recourse from the depths of my heart & humbly beg to whom God has given such great power to come to my assistance. Help me in my present & urgent petition. In return I promise to make your name known & cause you to be invoked. Say three Our Fathers, three Hail Mary’s & Gloria’s. St. Jude, pray for us & all who invoke your aid. Amen. This novena has never been known to fail. I have had my request granted.
