;

any neighbors near the intersection of Broad and Morris streets have been eyeing a construction site for more than two years now. What kind of eye is the question: an eye that laments the disappearance of DiSilvestro’s park, playground and basketball courts; an eye that misses a lively South Philly Free Library Branch; or an eye that gleams perhaps at the idea that, once it’s fin-

ished, it’ll be a state-of-the-art hub of the community with a brand new library, recreation center, and health clinic. It all came together when the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) realized that it wanted to expand its services in South Philly from St. Agnes, 1930 S. Broad St., and the City of Philadelphia said, essentially, why don’t you let us give you the block where the library, DiSilvestro, and the City’s Health Center 2 lives and you can design and build a brand new hub of liter-

acy, health and learning? The result is the brand new South Philadelphia Community Health and Literacy Center, which threw a grandiose ribbon-cutting ceremony on Monday morning. CHOP patients have been visiting the third floor of the space for a couple weeks now, the park space behind the building isn’t quite finished, and the library on the first floor is empty save for a brilliant Maurice Sendak mural. An anticipated community day, that will mark the completion of the park and the library, is slated

for early June. Sen. Bob Casey told SPR, via a written statement because he got stuck in traffic on his way from Harrisburg, “I came to this city many years ago to teach young children for a year in North Philly. Then and today, those children are a reminder that every child is born with a light inside of them, and that it’s the abiding obligation of all of us to do all we can to help that light shine. This new health and literacy center will be at the forefront of helping vulnerable children in this community ASS CHOP ^OUS ,,

To our readers: As you will see if you inspect our Word on the Street question, May has the distinction of being Mental Health Awareness Month. As a lifelong resident of Philadelphia, I have seen many individuals judged and subsequently jettisoned from their families because of their afflictions and have also suffered some indirect setbacks in my life because of loved ones’ struggles. I have always been a pretty curious thinker, perhaps too much, it seems, and lately I have found that my compassion has increased immensely when pondering how many obstacles we face as individuals and as residents of an often perplexing city. Of all the causes that we could back, fewer resonate with me more than the en-

hancement of mental health research and care. As this month unfolds, I encourage similar regard for others and the complete rejection of their ills as something to ridicule. Henry David Thoreau eloquently stated “If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.� More than 150 years after his death, why are we still stigmatizing and stalling in accepting the tunes of the afflicted? Let’s be their collaborators in producing a healthier city and nation. Joseph Myers South Philly Review editor

BVS d]gOUS Ob DO`S To the Editor: I read with interest the letter by Principal Craig Metcalfe about his school, Universal Vare Charter School. He claims some bragging rights about the progress made at his school and why it is a growing magnet for neighborhood children. According to Mr. Metcalfe, Vare ranks third out of 10 middle schools with similar populations. Vare has a smaller than average student population consisting mostly of disadvantaged males. It has a student/ teacher ratio of about 16 to 1. Comparing that with similar schools does paint a somewhat accurate picture of progress. But only in that peer group. Rankings from other sources are not as favorable when Vare is compared to all middle schools in the state. Of the 550 middle schools in Pennsylvania, Vare ranks close to the bottom in performance. Which proves two things: First, any progress is better than none. And, secondly, to compare any school to others for purposes of measuring growth, the schools must have similar teaching/learning conditions, including demographics, class size and available resources. We should all root for Universal Vare Charter School to continue its positive march forward. Let’s also root for all our children to have the tools they need to succeed no matter what school they attend. Gloria Endres South Philadelphia

“I pray and I exercise. I also treat people the way that I would want for them to treat me. We shouldn’t lose sight of that.� Barnita Huzzy, 1300 block of South 15th Street

To the Editor: Is it possible that we are living in an alternate reality? How can it be that Donald Trump is the presumptive nominee of the Republican Party? I feel as if I am having a recurring nightmare and am waiting for someone to wake me. Why have American voters become so “I like word finds and crossword puzzles. Lately, I’ve become interested in adult coloring books, too. I think having a support system and showing kindness are important as well.� Roseann Thomas, 1900 block of South Warnock Street

Iekj^ F^_bbo H[l_[m consumed by anger, hate, and bigotry? How can they justify Mr. Trump’s tirades as acceptable in today’s society of diversity? Who, in good conscience, could actually cast a vote for this man of intolerance? The mere thought of Donald Trump negotiating deals with foreign leaders sends chills down my spine. Mr. Trump does not have any comprehensive, detailed, or specific plans regarding any serious issues that exist in our country. His speeches mainly consist of insulting remarks and do not contain any substantive information. Without a doubt, Hillary Clinton has flaws. She is not perfect. Who among us is? However, she is definitely the most qualified and competent candidate who will be able to lead our country on day one in the Oval Office. She has earned the respect of foreign leaders and visited more than 120 countries when she served as Secretary of State. The security of the United States is at stake, and, as a voter, I plan to cast my vote for Hillary Clinton in November. Carol Pasquarello South Philadelphia

t 12:11 a.m. May 1, police responded to a person-screaming call at Nickel’s Tavern, 2655 S. Second St. The complainant relayed that as he smoked a cigarette outside the establishment, five men approached him, with one accusing him of trying to talk to his girlfriend, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. They punched and kicked him repeatedly, leading him to call authorities for help. Personnel at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital treated him for pain to his head and neck and a cut to his right ear. He could not provide detailed descriptions of the offenders, but he was able to tab the lead aggressor as white, in his late 20s to early 30s, bald, and having a goatee. Call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Two Ohio residents and a Massachusetts inhabitant supposedly assaulted a man in Bella Vista. A person-screaming call at 10 p.m. April 27 sent police to the 800 block of East Passyunk Avenue, where they found the complainant bleeding from his head. He and witnesses told them that the alleged aggressors punched him multiple times, causing him to fall to the ground, with the trio reportedly heading to a restaurant following the matter, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Once the figures supposedly left the eatery, witnesses pointed them out to police, who arrested them without incident and who arranged transport of the victim to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, where personnel placed two staples in his head and addressed loosened teeth, facial abrasions, and scratches to his back, neck, and hands. Police detained Joshua Krulcik and Christopher Follin, both of Martins Ferry, Ohio, and Edrina Cela, of Middleton, Massachusetts, and charged them with criminal conspiracy, simple and aggravated assault, and recklessly endangering another person. Krulcik and Follin posted their $50,000 bail, and Cela posted her $10,000 one. The three await a May 17 preliminary hearing.

1]\Âż \SR Q]\ac[S` Police arrested a Point Breeze woman for supposedly committing aggravated assault at a nearby business. As first reported in the Feb. 18 South Philly Review as “Ducking at Dunkin,’â€? at 6:50 a.m. Feb. 12, officers ventured to Dunkin’ Donuts, 1551 Washington Ave., and met with the store manager. She reported a dissatisfied patron started knocking things down on the counter, picked up a ceramic cup, and heaved it at her. The throw caused the overseer to suffer a wrist laceration, with the offender fleeing the area in a dark vehicle, possibly a Ford Taurus. Police announced on Friday that they had detained Safaa Brown, of the 1500 block of Ellsworth Street, for the incident and charged the 22-year-old with criminal mischief, simple assault, recklessly endangering another person, and possession of an instrument of crime. She received a release on her own recognizance and awaits a May 20 trial.

4`][ OZS b] POWZ A Passyunk Square man is in police custody after supposedly committing aggravated assault in Queen Village. As first reported in the April 14 South Philly Review as “Smacked inside Paddy Whacks,� surveillance video captured the image of a male at 11:35 p.m. Feb. 27 as he struck a fellow patron within the location, 150 South St. He continued to beat the complainant until employees intervened, fleeing the establishment in an unknown direction. Further inspection of the footage led authorities to deem Alfredo Nicotra, of the 1400 block of South Eighth Street, as the perpetrator. They arrested the 21-year-old on May 2 and charged him with simple and aggravated assault, possession of an instrument of crime, and recklessly endangering another person. He posted his $100,000 bail and awaits a May 17 preliminary hearing.

AQ]]bW\U OeOg Five males combined to rob a man of a Hoverboard he had hoped to sell in Grays Ferry. At 9:22 p.m., the complainant, having arranged to part with the scooter through a Craigslist advertisement, arrived on the 2700 block of Winton Terrace, where the aforementioned figures were waiting, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. He gave the device to one of them to inspect, with individual soon pointing a knife at him and demanding that he back away. The fivesome then ran eastbound on Point Breeze Avenue with the $250 prize. The victim could say only that the at-large men are black and donned dark clothing. Call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

A tradition with superstition ÂŽĂŠ0g 8]aS^V ;gS`a Review Editor

E

eled parking spot always gives me a little laugh. I suppose some people think size matters when they place mammoth trash cans or beach chairs in the spaces, but my guess is that your spot will still be a goner, as some pretty daring people love to wage a battle of wills in our ’hoods. 6) Bagging one’s own groceries is bad luck: Yes, I know supermarkets employ people to bag items, but if nobody is available and if you are an able-bodied person, BAG YOUR OWN STUFF!!!! Please do not fidget with keys or coupons and leave a cashier with a lengthy line to tend to your purchases. Please. 5) Burying a statue of St. Joseph will help someone to sell a home: I am a practicing Roman Catholic, so this belief has always appealed to me, especially since St. Joseph is my namesake. This divine practice reflects his status as a carpenter and must have his feet pointing toward heaven if it is to work. How fitting! 4) A Virgin Mary statue in one’s window will help to ward off wedding week rain: A neighbor reminded me of this one that gives me two Roman Catholic examples. How I wish I had a third to form a trinity. Ah, religious humor! 3) The evil eye will spell your doom: Being mostly Italian (Don’t let the last name fool you!), I grew up hearing about and fearing the malocchio, or the evil eye. I have actually come to believe more in cold hearts as the truest source of misery, so stare away, you jinxes. I have you covered. 2) The Eagles will somehow win the Super Bowl: How many people did I just make mad? I am a Flyers fan, so hit me where it hurts right back, everyone. I am rooting for first-round draft pick Carson Wentz to help to make me eat my words, though. We need another winter parade to complement Mummers action. 1) Saying “sauce� instead of “gravy� makes someone a moron: Or a “medigan,� for better effect. This is such a touchy subject that I think I am going to hop on the gravy train so as not to come across as saucy. SPR Contact Editor Joseph Myers at jmyers@southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

e all have individually goofy quirks and preferences, such as my refusal to write only with black Papermate pens, but I find it more interesting to address shared beliefs and theories. Since tomorrow will mark 2016’s only Friday the 13th, I started to think about a few local notions that strike me as superstitious. I have also exercised some liberty in making up a few based on my observations as a 12-year resident of this never-dull part of the city. 10) Dog waste will pick itself up: Oh, how I love competing in the Let’s Dodge Dog Feces Olympics each day! Stiff winds might make bags and papers find a new address, but unless a hurricane comes our way, poop is going nowhere. 9) Pushing an elevator button multiple times will work: Our busy schedules make us actually think that the fourth or fifth push of a button will make an elevator come faster. This belief is definitely out of order. 8) Liberally honking a honk actually accomplishes anything: Well, it does make everyone around the honker think he or she has impulse control problems. We know you have somewhere to go. Let one honk suffice, and curse your target under your breath instead when someone is an inconsiderate slowpoke. 7) Placing large objects in a parking space will prevent people from taking it: A winter phenomenon, the placing of chairs and God-knows-what-else in a shov-

We’re a family-run business; we’ve been in business since 1892. I’m the fourth generation working here in the store. The grocery tax will double the prices on juice drinks, teas, sodas and many other items that we sell. It will impact our customers and hurt our businesses. That’s why we’re taking a stand.

Join me and over 800 small businesses to oppose the grocery tax.

way.� DANNY RICCI, OF the 3100 block of South Colorado Street, was raised around 10th and Wharton streets and went to Korea in 1951. He came back at 22 and got married and said he “postponed my wedding to go fight.� He earned himself a Purple Heart for taking a bullet to his shoulder and said a little cold and rain are nothing compared to malaria and frostbite. Bob Carrero, a lifelong resident of 19th and Wolf streets, graduated from South Philly High, 2101 S. Broad St. and went to Korea in ’52 in the Air Force. They rightly pointed out that there is an explicit Korean War Memorial at Penn’s Landing at 109 Spruce St. Dedicated in 2002, it honors the 610 servicemen who died in service from the five surrounding counties. Domenic Venezia, a resident of the 2900 block of South 17th Street who also grew up with Ricci near 10th and Wharton, enlisted at 18 and came back to Philly at 21. “The first thing I wanted was a car,� he said, and got himself a 1948 Plymouth. Another Korean War vet, Tony Tomeo, from the 1800 block of Jackson Street, joined the Army in ’49. When he got back to Philly in ’51, he admitted he was a little “peed off seeing guys hang-

ing around the corner.� Tom Bartley, from 18th Street and Oregon Avenue, was drafted out of Camden into the Vietnam War. “You didn’t feel safe until you were in the plane flying home,� he admitted, returning home in ’68. It wasn’t exactly the triumphant return some other vets enjoyed. “It was a very unpopular war, people spit on you,� Bartley said, confirming that he “lost lots of friends in [Vietnam].� His wife Marybeth, whom he married in ’74, told him about the memorial ceremony. The SCSSD has operated since 2002, when the Philadelphia Phillies, the Philadelphia Eagles and Comcast-Spectacor entered into an agreement that preceded their builds of new stadiums. Its entire operating budget is covered by those three entities. Jalosinski said they service approximately 4,100 households and 9,000 residents. “Ted Scairato introduced the idea of an All Wars Memorial to the SCSSD Board back in ’13, [and] the Board proudly and unanimously approved,� he stated.

To the men and women who served to defend and honor our country and bring stability and peace to our world� reads the stone memorial dedicated May 6 at the cusp of a median that splits West Moyamensing Avenue just west of 15th Street. On a rainy Friday morning, South Philly veterans from several wars came out for the ceremonious debut of an “All Wars� memorial installed by the Sports Complex Special Services District (SCSSD). After brief words from SCSSD executive director Shawn Jalosinski, vets from primarily the Korean and Vietnam wars took turns posing for photographs in front of the nearly $4,000 stone memorial set atop a strong foundation and surrounded by red, white, and blue flowers. The stone is engraved with the symbol for the five U.S. Military branches: Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps and Navy, plus a Prisoner of War/ Missing in Action symbol. Ted Scairato Sr. was the primary motivating factor for the SCSSD project. The 2013 South Philly Review Difference Maker is the director of Community District IV, a Korean War veteran, and a resident of the 2900 block

of South Sydenham Street. He grew up at 18th Street and Snyder Avenue, went to St. Monica Parish, 2422 S. 17th St., and school, as well as the Edward Bok Technical High School, formerly 1901 S. Ninth St. He married his wife right “out of service� and moved down to Marconi, had a son and four daughters, and jumped into his father’s specialty for work – graphic design. “For a year or a year-and-a-half, I was after them to do something,� Scairato said. But he was happy with a rainy inauguration, mostly because of the turnout. Another Korean War vet wished him goodbye, saying “everything turned out great.� The Korean War vets were all decked out in sharp, striking jackets embroidered at Triple Play Sporting Goods, 827 S. Ninth St. “Oh yeah, I’m happy they supplied us with all this,� Scairato said, pointing to the multiple tents that covered the sidewalk in front of the memorial and the seating area where vets scarfed sausage sandwiches and sipped coffees and Cokes. The All Wars aspect, he said “was the fair thing to do,� and he mentioned wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, asking “should we be there? We should be guarding our borders, not putting people in harm’s

reach their full potential and get off to a strong, smart start to their lives.� The 96,000-square foot LEED-certified building cost about $45.2 million, but the City had to kick in only a nominal $2.2 million towards construction (plus a small onsite lease cost). The rest came from CHOP, $30 million, the Free Library, $1.3 million, and the rest came from $9.8 million in New Markets Tax Credits. The CHOP Pediatric Primary Care Center is approximately 22,000 square feet and will service almost 35,000 patient visits per year. The Philadelphia Department of Public Health Community Center is a bit larger, 29,500 square feet and will see nearly 50,000 annual patient visits. The Free Library of Philadelphia South Philadelphia Library is the slightest of the three-floor space – the 12,000 square feet will service 150,000 customers annually. Mayor Jim Kenney was on hand to welcome the new project’s near-completion on Monday and said “this is what our institutions should do. I’m from South Philadelphia and this is what the future is, co-locating the Free Library, Parks & Rec, CHOP and SEPTA.� He commended the two South Philadelphia City Councilmen and the Philadelphia Industrial Development Corporation (PIDC) and concluded saying this Health and Literacy Center would “get these kids the care and services they need to help drive down poverty and create educated, healthy taxpayers.� BY MOST ACCOUNTS, the Perryman Construction-led CHOP project has gone according to hopes and plans. “My observation and feeling is that it’s

gone extremely well, and they’ve had a fabulous team out there, and they’re really nice,� Rebecca Zameska, a resident of the 1400 block of Castle Avenue and one of the morning’s speakers, said. “They’ve been extremely considerate and, on the whole, I’m really proud to call them my neighbors.� Zameska, mother to six-year-old Lillyanna and four-year-old Georgie (the IV) and husband to George, happened to jumpstart a non-profit called Helpful Heroes as CHOP was breaking ground. It’s a “way to teach my children as well as involve other children in learning about charitable giving,� she said, and decided to run a book drive at her daughter’s school, Friends Select, where they collected 1,200 books to benefit the children of South Philly. CHOP runs a Reach Out and Read program where it sends newborns to five-yearolds home with a new or lightly used book after an office visit. Helpful Heroes’ book drive at Friends Select will benefit Reach Out and Read, but she’s also spearheading a book drive from May 23-June 11 that will more directly benefit the library.

“We’re really looking forward to it coming back, it looks amazing,� Zamesha said. Her daughter used the old South Philly branch extensively before it was razed – “we knew the entire staff,� she said. East Passyunk Crossing Civic Association co-chair Joseph F. Marino served on a neighborhood advisory council that met quarterly for the first two years, then monthly for the last two. It addressed concerns such as short-dumping, what to do in an emergency, vibration from construction and things like that. But one of his main goals was protecting the Wharton Esherick wood sculpture that flanked speakers at the CHOP podium Monday. “That was in the children’s section of the Free Library my entire childhood,� he said. When they wanted to move it to the Central Library branch, the resident of the 1900 block of South Jessup Street said “over my dead body!� Second District Councilman Kenyatta Johnson, in his remarks, said he was “honored, privileged, and inspired� to be a part of this project and shared memories of his getting physicals and paperwork signed for

sports, as well as taking his grandmother there before she passed. As a young Point Breeze native, he said Broad Street felt like Center City and his weekly trips to the library fed his growing mind. “This community has helped me become the man I am today,� he said. The president and director of the Free Library of Philadelphia, Siobhan Reardon, shared comments that point to the excitement of having the first of five innovative library overhauls in the city right here in South Philly. “In about a month, we’ll welcome people in the library. This is a transformational space, and it’s key that it’s in South Philly where a lot is happening,� she said. She acknowledged the Sendak mural on loan from the Rosenbach Museum and shared excitement that disease prevention and education would come with “prescriptions of books and health-based programming.� SPR

A South of South thespian is taking on the titular task in making his Arden Theatre Company debut. ÂŽĂŠ0g 8]aS^V ;gS`a Review Editor

any actors prefer for their endeavors to be exclusively concerned with severity while other performers desire for folly to carry the day. Scott Sheppard strikes an amazing balance between the cravings as a commended creator and interpreter and through June 12, local lovers of levity can catch the 31-year-old enjoying light yet nonetheless educational moments as the lead in “The

Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales.� “It’s so therapeutic to perform for children,� the resident of the 1500 block of Carpenter Street said before heading to the Arden Theatre Company for a show. “They send these vibrant shock waves of energy to me, and I absolutely love engaging with them.� The South of South dweller is making his debut for the Old City-situated haunt and finds himself fortunate to answer its press release’s inquiry “What do you get when you take fairy tale classics and turn them on their heads?� with “a big, hilarious dance fest.� Under the direction of fellow South Philadelphian Matthew Decker, the Arden’s associate artistic director, Sheppard and his peers are highly involving their young audience members, placing them very much in charge of the action. “They could certainly join us one day,� he said with a laugh over the notion that the children could become members of Lighting Rod Special, the physical theatre company for which he serves as a co-director and that prides itself on never settling for status quo estimations of what life and art could yield. “This is a production that calls for us to keep our imaginations completely open, and that’s never going to prove unfulfilling.�

B?<;IJOB;I Loving the 75-minute creation’s clown aspects, Sheppard, who lauded his Pig Iron School for Advanced Performance Training studies in aiding his preparation and execution, tabbed his involvement as a vaunted opportunity to exude vulnerability and to make him an “open vessel for pathos.� Allowing for safe explorations of “a chaotic world,� as Decker dubbed it in promotional material, the presentation marks the inaugural occasion upon which Sheppard is performing for children, thus infusing his delivery with added gusto and gratitude. “He is a wild child, and I love playing him,� he said of the Cheese Man, one of nearly a dozen of his duties in the stagebased handling of the Caldecott Awardwinning book. “I actually treasure every chance to bring extra life to this production. It’s already bursting with brilliance, and I’m a pretty lucky guy to be able to add my two cents.� THE HANOVER NATIVE noted he took a circuitous path to become such a curious seeker and originator of daring work. Having made creative writing his concentration while at Haverford College, he came to find intriguing the whole idea of crafting takes on contemporary life and ended up becoming an Arden teaching professional

for the 2007-’08 season. “I had a burgeoning interest in the theater world and thought about the possibilities of somehow joining it in a lasting sense,� the York County product said of his pursuits. “There are definitely inherent difficulties to establishing yourself in this field, but the vision started to take shape even more, and I’m thrilled that I’ve been able to build my skill set in this city and make connections with some pretty brave and amazing folks.� Also a classroom veteran who taught English for a year in France and for three years at Friends Central, he rejected the “Those who can’t do, teach� sentiment by writing when having free time, with his Pig Iron enrollment giving his drive even more direction. “Writing can be a really, really solitary activity, and I was keen on merging my writing interest with my passion for performing, and that’s exactly what Pig Iron helped me to do,� the alumnus said. “There was also that search for a collaborative environment and immersion into a world where you could start works from scratch and build from the ground up.� He and other graduates founded the South Philly constituent-heavy Lighting

servers never to settle. “There are all these talks about theater’s relevance and what can really come from a theater experience,� Sheppard relayed. “You find people doing stuff just to be provocative, individuals who make stuff that aims for the heart, and folks who want to mesh those and throw in some other angles, and you know what? They all have merit.� He has achieved renown, too, having captured an Independence Foundation Fellowship honor that will soon find him traveling to Seattle. With more work planned for Pig Iron and Lightning Rod Special, and a trip to Greece slated for July and August in collaboration with RootlessRoot, he, like a good piece of cheese, is aging just right. “It’s a great progression to experience,� Sheppard said of his maturation. “I want to keep taking on these great projects because there’s growth to be had in coming to understand myself a bit more and to challenge an audience to have fun, think, and do both all over again.� SPR Call 215-922-1122, or visit ardentheatre.org.

He and his peers strive to prolong discussions about how texts affect viewers, with Sheppard beaming when revealing that “Underground Railroad Game� will receive New York City and Baltimore treatments. Seemingly very different, his work with the nearly one-and-a-half-year-old entity and his engagement with the Arden have much in common, with the most advanced similarity being their push for ob-

his is not a column about Eagles football. This is not a column about whether the Eagles should have traded a bunch of draft picks to select quarterback Carson Wentz. This is not a column about whether the Eagles have a quarterback problem. What the organization has brought upon itself as a result of last week’s draft is a woman problem. And that is the matter that should concern us the most. Under head coaches Andy Reid and Chip Kelly, the organization became known for attempting to bring players of character onto this football team. There were a few detours and missteps along the way, but, in the main, if anything differentiated the Eagles from many other professional sports teams, it was their commitment to the character of their players. Even the organization’s most controversial move, giving Michael Vick a second chance after his sordid involvement with dogfighting, seems to have paid off in his becoming a solid citizen. The team’s dedication to good people has been due in large part to its owner, Jeffrey Lurie. The Eagles have not won a championship since 1960. Lurie is growing older. Last week, that combination of circumstances and football considerations related to the draft resulted in a dramatic change in strategy for the team when it came to its late-round selections. The Eagles threw their own standards out the window and became the latest organization to turn a blind eye to violence against women. Enter Wendell Smallwood and Jalen Mills. Smallwood’s friend, Zakee Lloyd, was charged with the murder of Manuel Oliveras in 2012. A female was the key witness in the case. Lloyd asked Smallwood to get to the witness. The police have a recording of a conversation between Lloyd and Smallwood where Smallwood is heard saying “I almost got her beat.� As a result, Smallwood was charged with witness intimidation. He turned cooperating witness against his now-former friend, and, as a result, when Lloyd cut a deal rather than go to trial, the charges against Smallwood were dropped. Smallwood denies he ever attempted to intimidate the female in question. What the words “I almost got her beat� apparently mean is that he was dancing with her and finally caught on to her moves. Am I a cynic for believing that the charges were dropped not because of a lack of evidence but because Smallwood cooperated?

Maybe. Smallwood says he learned from the incident, but not enough to have avoided tweeting anti-gay remarks before they were erased from his Twitter page after the Eagles drafted him. Jalen Mills was charged with second-degree battery of a woman in the summer of ’14. The charges were eventually reduced to a misdemeanor, and he ended up in what was called a “diversion� program (maybe such a program teaches participants a hobby in lieu of punching females?). Mills’ attorney explained that it really was Mills’ girlfriend who punched the woman (no word on whether she too was sent to a “diversion� program). Howie Roseman, the Eagles guru for the draft, has called the off-the-field problems of Smallwood and Mills stuff that happens to kids that age. Roseman apparently is confusing youthful indiscretions such as tossing eggs at Halloween or stealing the opponent’s mascot with the more egregious problems of which his two draft picks were charged. The truth is that the Eagles pre-draft trade with the Cleveland Browns left the team in a pickle where they felt they had to take a chance. Roseman has not turned into Spencer Tracy playing Father Flanagan. His interest is pure and simple. Maybe these kids turn into good players, have learned their lesson, and enhance the team’s chances to win a championship. Lurie has signed off on the deals, his goodwill toward “choir boys� giving way to the need to win a Super Bowl. What makes all of this so ironic is that the National Football League has finally been forced to acknowledge its past problem of ignoring violence against women. All it took was a video of one of its players, Ray Rice, delivering a knockout punch to his now-wife while inside an elevator. Prior to that video, Commissioner Roger Goodell treated player violence against women with a slap on the wrist. There was more hoopla over star player Tom Brady’s involvement in deflating footballs than quarterback Ben Roethlisberger’s being accused of sexually assaulting a woman in a bathroom. Despite the NFL’s institution of reforms in how it treats players who physically abuse women, the Dallas Cowboys added a serial abuser, Greg Hardy, to their team, but released him at the end of last season. Eagles fans and other fans around the league took delight in booing Hardy. Apparently, the adverse reaction around the league finally embarrassed Dallas owner Jerry Jones and outweighed Hardy’s talents on the field. Maybe Smallwood and Mills will take advantage of their second chance. Maybe they won’t even show enough talent in training camp or the pre-season to make the squad and render the question moot. But what Roseman’s moves and Lurie’s acquiescence show us is that in the end, the Eagles’ moral compass is no different than that of any of the other organizations. As the immortal Vince Lombardi once said, in the NFL, “Winning isn’t everything; it’s the only thing.� SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/opinion/cardella.

Christina’s Veggie Orzo Salad

Large largesse

D

espite all of the recent rain, do not doubt that desirable days will soon be ours. When we make their acquaintance, we should have a few favorable food options in mind to complement the tempting temperatures, with Christina Maiellano eager to help through her Veggie Orzo Salad submission. The resident of the 2500 block of South 10th Street certainly knows that orzo has long enjoyed a reputation as a multi-use gem and elected to unite it with black olives and a trio of tasty vegetables. The ultimate addition from the Lower Moyamensing inhabitant, though, has to be the Parmesan cheese, which will melt your heart as it softens over the pasta and its pals. SPR

oeur is your new favorite place to drink with kids. A weekday “Family Happy Hour� from 5 to 7 p.m. features $5 food specials for the kiddos and food and beverage specials for the adults. They cover all the bases on the weekends, too, with a special section titled “For the Littles� and half price bubbly on Sundays – “don’t go quietly into that dark work week.� The relaxed, family-friendly vibe of this Montreal-inspired gastropub is a distinct change of pace from that of its predecessors, The Mildred and James. Perhaps the approachable and affordable Coeur will have more staying power at Eighth and Christian streets. It stands a good chance, since easy, thoughtful drinking and eating are the forte of Coeur owners Brendan Hartranft, Leigh Maida, and Brendan Kelly – also owners of Strangelove’s, Local 44, and Memphis Taproom. Coeur has the carefully curated draft list that we’ve come to expect from this restaurateur trio. Not all (or even half) of the offerings are Canadian, but breweries like Les Trois Mousquetairies and Dunham Brewery are examples of recent fun Quebec City features. There’s a lot to love beyond the drink menu. First, the basics: not only is Coeur a South Philly restaurant with ample seating, but it also takes reservations. Let’s face it - once you have embarked on the odyssey of finding parking in Bella Vista, you want your seat at the table to be secure. When Justin Bennett replaced Andy Tessier as executive chef in March, there were a few changes to the menu, but, thankfully, the delectable Rotisserie Chicken ($18) has remained. Do it right, and order the chicken “finger lickin�- with a mountain of salty frites alongside. To everyone’s delight, Bennett also moved the Poutine ($10) from the status of special to menu staple. The cheese curds were everything they should be -- mild, squeaky, and salty. There was just enough gravy to christen the fries and form a shallow pool at the bottom of the dish. The Big Green Salad to Share ($15) was brought out in a bowl so large our server had to pull up another table to accommodate its girth. The fresh greens were lightly dressed in Coeur’s own vegan goddess dressing. The croutons were freshly toasted hunks of sweet bread, the size of mini dinner rolls. Tangy pickled onions were a nice addition. The salad is a meal for one, and a great option for a table of four to share as an appetizer. The Z’atar Wings ($11) were a disappointment. Only a faint dusting of Z’atar left the wings mostly flavorless. The house-made ranch with fresh dill and the small cup of homemade chow chow that came alongside were more interesting than the wings. While the ambiance is low-lit, warm, and spa-

cious, there is room for improvement in the dining experience. On busy nights, the acoustics put the volume at club-level. One must strain to hear and to be heard by companions and the servers, who are few and far between. Coeur’s brunch menu is available on Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Despite the thoughtful touches - the brunch menu “For the Littles� and the half price bubbly on Sundays brunch feels a bit like an afterthought. When I arrived shortly after it opened one recent rainy Sunday morning, my table of two was handed one menu to share; they were “low on menus.� The kitchen was out of challah for the French toast. The soup of the day ($8), described as cream of tomato served over crumbled blue cheese with chili oil and croutons, was delicious and warming - but no blue cheese was to be found. If it weren’t for the English muffins, I would recommend passing on Coeur’s brunch. But the English muffins! These little house-made wonders serve as the vehicle for the Sausage, Egg and Cheese Sammy ($12). They are everything I never knew I wanted from my English muffin. Light and airy, but still substantial. Sweet and fresh. The cheddar Mornay sauce spilled over the sides of the muffin and onto the plate, smothering the peppery house-made sausage patty. Coeur’s ample seating, relaxed atmosphere, and unique, affordable drink menu should go a long way towards drawing a steady stream of patrons – maybe then they can bring in a few more servers to assist the skeleton crew. For a restaurant that’s been open only since September, it is still finding its footing in the neighborhood. In the meantime, I say go for the drinks. Stay for the English muffins. Two tips of the toque to Coeur. SPR

Indonesia Restaurant’s Gado-Gado

E

hen Realino Indra Santoso moved to the United States in 1998, he did so as an “eager and afraid� teenager who almost ended up experiencing culture shock in making adjustments. Now 36, he has retained his enthusiasm and discarded his apprehension and has enjoyed nearly nine years as a South Phillybased proprietor thanks to Indonesia Restaurant, 1725 Snyder Ave. “My land is a vibrant one in terms of cuisine, so I love exposing people to this food,� the businessman said of his Newbold location’s devotion to East Javanese delights. “South Philly has been very receptive to what happens here, and I’m very grateful for that.� The resident of the 2100 block of Ritner Street came to the United States to study restaurant management and hospitality, joining his family’s Chinatown-situated restaurant on a full-time basis in 2001. When needing to find a new address around a decade ago, he deemed South Philly appealing and has retained many of his original patrons while adding many more guests. With seating for 103 and an admirably comforting ambience, Indonesia Restaurant, certainly the possessor of a nondescript name, has an exceptional identity as a purveyor of amazing dishes, with Santoso proud to tout the menu’s size. “It could have been longer,� the Girard Estate dweller joked in referring to the 99 selections. “We want to immerse people in our way of life and stress the importance of food in doing that.� Also the overseer of Cafe Pendawa, 1529 Morris St., Santoso explained that as locals begin to devote themselves to the practice of broadening their dining possibilities, Indonesian options make fine choices, especially for those looking to develop more than a minimal interest. As pasta is to Italian cuisine, so is Gado-Gado to Indonesian fare, and he elected to share his site’s recipe for the authentic salad. “It is the top delicacy to promote,� Santoso said of the $8.75 offering. “If you want to have an introduction to our character, this is where you must begin. It is the true color of my culture.�

“We had a bit of a rough start, but guys are settling in, so the rest of the season should be full of opportunities to show how much we’ve bonded,� the club’s leader in batting average, runs batted in, and stolen bases said. “We’re all about hard work and effort, and this is the time of year when those matter most.� THE COMMITTED CONTRIBUTOR commenced his attraction to the diamond through the Delaware Valley Youth Athletic Association, 2840 S. 18th St. Extremely excited about the rejuvenation of the sport at Ss.

He should be the blueprint for every kid that plays this game.� Thanks to his devotion to the team concept, Kerrigan reveled with the Saints in ’11 and ’12 as they captured the Catholic League title. Having also scored All-League nods during the campaigns, he went on to give his alma mater further bragging rights by venturing to Temple. Two years at the

When Jimmy Kerrigan left Temple University two years ago following its decision to dump baseball due to financial hardships, he wanted to attend a school where he could evolve as a player and a person, ultimately landing at Virginia Commonwealth University, where he feels he has “struck gold.� That figure of speech seems quite apt for the 22-year-old, who recently claimed the Hammer Strength All-American Award. “I really love contributing to this team, so to win something for helping us to grow really blows me away,� the native of the 1700 block of West Moyamensing Avenue said from Richmond. “Coming here is the best move I could have made, and there’s still so much work left to do.� Strength and conditioning coach Tim Kontos nominated the Marconi product for the honor that Hammer Strength, in partnership with the Collegiate Strength & Conditioning Coaches Association, uses to “recognize the most outstanding college athletes who exemplify the best of what it takes, on and off the field, to become an elite athlete.� The association’s website adds that victors attain acclaim through their “intensity, consistency of purpose, achievement, and teamwork.� That quartet of characteristics has long defined the young man, who intends to use the accolade to influence the drive to cap his collegiate playing career in the most productive manner. “This is a blue-collar team that loves to play hard-nosed baseball, so I’m going to continue to go out there to try to put runs on the board and wins by our name,� Kerrigan confided of seeing the commendation as a confidence booster rather than a pressure inducer. “I’m not going to see this as a reason to force anything because then I doubt that much good will come from that.� He also does not intend to obsess over the possibility of becoming a draft selection, as he certainly has had his name inserted in conversations about which bat wizards would make solid professionals. While the next phase of his journey has crossed his mind, he prefers the present, with the Rams sitting at 33-16 ahead of this weekend’s action at Presbyterian College.

North Philly-situated university bore great memories, and he knew he could not stew when then-Director of Athletics Kevin Clark told the baseball team and six other programs that the location could no longer field squads. “I had a great opportunity at Temple, and it was definitely shocking to hear that news,� Kerrigan said. “I wanted to further my baseball identity, so I started to search.� He adjusted to campus life at Virginia Commonwealth with ease yet did not immediately look to be a team leader, leaving that title to the seniors. “I knew that would have to change,� he said of preparing for his swan song. “I wanted to become stronger in all aspects because there’s definitely the potential for us to be a terrible opponent for anyone we face.� The Rams proved to be just that last season, winning the Atlantic 10 Tournament and the Dallas Baptist Regional of the College World Series, the latter yielding an All-Regional selection for the South Philly son, who stroked five hits, including four doubles, in four games. The Rams fell to the mighty Miami Hurricanes in the Coral Gables Super Regional, but Kerrigan did his part as a motivator and producer, collecting three hits in seven at-bats and making five putouts in right field. “We knew that was in us, just like we know we could make a memorable run this time, too,� he said, validating every point that went into Kontos’ 500-word nomination essay. With seven more regular season games left and the Atlantic 10 Tournament to follow, the Rams figure to butt in on talks about who will impress fans and prognosticators. No matter what, Kerrigan, who has one year to complete as an exercise science major but who will run out of athletic eligibility once this season ends, will continue to make his old stomping grounds proud, with Messina particularly eager for the future. “I can’t wait to be at his first game when he makes it because I am confident it will happen,� the resident of the 2700 block of South Marvine Street said. “I would never bet against Jimmy.� SPR
