High stakes

To the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board: Our position against any of the three applications proposed for this area is based on far more than the infamous N.I.M.B.Y. (Not In My Back Yard) I sincerely thank you for agreeing to hold hearings in my backyard because now you can clearly see all that we already have in our backyard and, for some of us, our front porches as well. We have Lincoln Financial Field, Citizens Bank Park, the Wells Fargo Center and last, but not least, Xfinity Live! (very, very live as it turns out). In our immediate vicinity, we also have the revitalized navy base, and FDR Park, which we are working hard to become the equivalent of Central Park. Gone are the days when there was a stretch of quiet time here. These venues are booked, overbooked and simultaneously booked almost 365 days a year. Surely you can

imagine the chaos that we already endure. I challenge any other section of this city to match event for event, capacity for capacity what we already tolerate here. Can we take more and continue to survive? We say a resounding â&#x20AC;&#x153;no.â&#x20AC;? Our civic organizations and the [Sports Complex Special Services District] have worked tirelessly to make it work, to accommodate all parties, to unsnarl the traffic and mitigate the noise and trash, etc. Our neighbors have made many sacrifices and accommodations already so that the City can make additional revenue, the teams can have a sparkling home turf and fans can have a safe neighborhood to come to, but enough is enough. It would stretch the imagination, plus the capacity and resources of our good neighbors, to try to mitigate the damage from even more cars, strangers, noise and confusion in the area. Now you may hear about how

many people we already host and think, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hmm, that will be a builtin crowd for casino success.â&#x20AC;? No, [it would be] quite the opposite. Remember that event ticket prices are high, parking is expensive and beers and food are costly at sporting and entertainment events. The fans already are spending four to six hours here. Will they have more time and more money left over to drop at a casino here? We strongly doubt it. Correspondingly, every other person on the face of the planet who is not attending an event here has the good sense to completely avoid the entire area before, during and after events, or risk being snarled in pregame or post-event traffic that lasts for hours, despite our best efforts to clear it quickly. To support the high costs of these very expensive operations of trying to produce a winning team, every dollar of tickets, beers and parking is needed. Any casino operation here will cannibalize team operations and stretch the already overburdened fans. We doubt there is much synergy after the initial curiosity wears off because the fan-based dollars and additional time away from family or work just are not there. The teams have been our good

South PhillyReview partners, as we have worked through our issues here. We do not want to see them hurt in any way. It is out of mutual respect for them, but more importantly, for the 5,000 nearby households, that our position is firmly â&#x20AC;&#x153;no.â&#x20AC;? We believe a casino here will not thrive or even survive. It will be a poor manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s SugarHouse, and that helps no one. Rather, thinking more globally as to what casino location would be best for the city, the region and the state and what location will produce the most revenue and economic development around it, with the least amount of pain to Philadelphians, I would suggest that one of the two proposed casino sites closest to the Pennsylvania Convention Center would be more ideally located. This is where we hope the commission will see the most value for Philadelphiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second casino. First, if a person from Philadelphia loses money at a casino, it hurts all Philadelphians â&#x20AC;&#x201D; less time spent with their children, less money for books and clothes, eroded family savings, lost businesses, etc., but if a guy from Kansas at a convention in big bad Philadelphia loses money at the casino, it impacts us all far less. A Convention Center-focused casino will better distinguish itself from SugarHouse and will help to revive the nightlife in that growing area. Our nightlife here needs no assistance. I will leave you with this image: Putting a casino where there is already four very large, very loud entertainment/sports venues is like stuffing a 10-pound sausage in a five-pound bag, or like stuffing a size 14 chick in size 2 jeans. No matter how you slice it, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ugly. Thank you for listening. Just in case you are not sure about what we are saying, we invite you back during a multi-event evening. Thank you.

Three men have been charged with murder for allegedly killing a Queen Village disc jockey. ■ By Amanda L. Snyder Review Managing Editor

hat police described as an “intense investigation” resulted in the arrest of three men who gunned down Thomas Watson, 36, of the 400 block of South Street at 3:25 a.m. May 11. Police first arrested Josephe Murray, 18, of Southwest Philly, May 15, according to court documents. Ronnie Robinson, 40, of North Philly, and Larry Josephe Murray Eric E. Nelson, 47, of Southwest Philly were apprehended the next day. All three were charged with murder, robbery, burglary and conspiracy, according to court records. Murray also was charged with possession of an instrument of crime while Robinson also was charged with possession of an instrument of crime, criminal trespassing, recklessly endangering another person and firearm violations. Watson was pronounced dead with gunshot wounds to his head and the left side of his torso inside Häagen-Dazs, 242 South St., which led to his second-floor apartment, 12 minutes after the incident, police said.

Surveillance video

Police have released surveillance video of the suspect authorities believe is responsible for killing a Whitman man last month. After combing through area surveillance video, investigators located the murder suspect in Don Ly’s case strolling along the 2700 block of South Randolph Street — about two blocks from the site of the homicide, police said. Ly, 68, of the 400 block of Vollmer Street, was stabbed multiple times in his neck, torso and right arm at 5:09 a.m. April 18 outside of his home, according to police. He was pronounced dead 22

minutes later at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. Ly was headed to his fruit stand he ran since 1995 at the University of Pennsylvania. The suspect was described as black with a light complexion or Latino, 5-foot-8, thin, having facial hair and wearing darkcolored pants, a dark-colored jacket, a black knit hat and black Converse sneakers. To report information, call Homicide Division at 215-686-3334, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Oxy operative An unknown man robbed a South of South pharmacy, fleeing in a mini van. The offender entered CVS, 2132 South St., and headed to the pharmacy where he handed the 21-year-old worker a note that demanded oxycodone at 4:47 p.m. May 21, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. After reading the note, the worker looked up to see the offender with a silver handgun pointed at his face, so he passed the note to the 31-yearold female pharmacist. She retrieved the drugs from the safe, placed them in a bag and handed them to the offender. He then fled from the store, heading southbound on 22nd Street and westbound on Kater Street before hopping in and driving off in an older model, dark blue minivan, possibly a Chrysler, with an unknown Pennsylvania license plate, Tolliver said. The thief was described as white, in his late-20s, 5-foot-7, possibly having light facial hair and wearing a red Phillies hoodie, a gray Phillies baseball cap and black shorts. This is the fifth such robbery since Feb. 1, although it has not been linked to any of the prior incidents. The same two men are believed to have robbed Bertolino’s Pharmacy, 1500 S. 12th St., Feb. 11; Zevin’s Drug Store, 800 McKean St.; and Walgreen’s, 2655 S. 10th St. (“Trio of thefts,” March 21), but the suspects have not been apprehended, police said. Antonio Jeffcoat, 25, of North Philly, was arrested four days after allegedly holding up Rosica Pharmacy, 2065 Snyder Ave., April 23.

POLICE REPORT in the parking lot at Walmart, 1675 S. Columbus Blvd., at 4:20 p.m. Friday, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. As he, his 26-year-old sister and children exited the car, Craig McWhorter, 52, of the 2100 block of Watkins Street, who was driving a 2000 black Mercedes-Benz, is believe to have complained to and cursed at the woman, saying they had parked in the spot he planned to occupy. The 31-year-old stepped in to defend his sister and an argument ensued when McWhorter allegedly said, “I got something for you,” pulled out a switchblade and indicated he was going to stab the man. The family fled back to the vehicle until police arrived. Police arrested McWhorter and recovered the switchblade, Tolliver said. He was charged with possession of an instrument of crime, terroristic threats, simple assault and possession of a prohibited offensive weapon, according to court records. He posted a percentage of his $3,000 bail and was released Sunday. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Violent follower

Cutting off his air A trio of teens robbed a man putting air in his tires at a Newbold gas station early yesterday. The 34-year-old was tending to his car at Sunoco, 2102 S. 17th St., at 2:15 a.m. when the teens asked if they could use the air pump when he finished, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Upon looking toward the group, one of them punched him in the back of

his head. The others soon joined in on the attack, punching him multiple times and swiping $5, his cell phone and ID. The young men fled west on Snyder Avenue on bicycles. The victim was treated at Methodist Hospital for his injuries, which included a laceration to his right hand as one of the teens was armed with a folding knife, Tolliver said. Two of the offenders were described as black, age 17 to 19, 5-foot-9 to 5-foot-10, 100 to 120 pounds and wearing white Tshirts and plaid shorts. Information on the third male was not available at press time. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Wild ride Within blocks of where he was picked up, a passenger robbed his cabbie in Hawthorne yesterday. An unknown man entered a 41-year-old man’s Capital Cab Co. taxi at 12:48 a.m. May 22 at Broad and Carpenter streets, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. As the cab reached 13th and Christian streets, the passenger pointed a black handgun at the driver and ordered him to hand over cash. He gave him $60, and the robber fled southbound on 13th. The offender was described as black, age 35 to 38, 5-foot-7, 200 pounds, closecropped hair and wearing a white T-shirt and black pants. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Mountain Street tangle A robber placed a man in headlock in order to take his belongings in Point Breeze Saturday. At 7:15 p.m., a 60-year-old man was strolling eastbound on the 2000 block of Mountain Street when the perpetrator jumped him from behind, placed him in a headlock and went through his pockets, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. During the struggle, the victim elbowed his attacker in the forehead, resulting in his fleeing eastbound on Mountain. The offender stole $12, a pack of cigarettes and ID. The victim was unharmed, Tolliver said. The robber was described as black with a medium complexion, age 20 to 25, 230 pounds and wearing a dark-colored jacket with a stripe on it and dark-colored jeans. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms. SPR Contact Managing Editor Amanda L.

A mugger threatened to slit her victim’s throat in Hawthorne Tuesday. A 28-year-old woman was heading westbound on the 1200 block of Bainbridge Street when she realized someone was following her at 8:50 p.m., Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. She turned around as the unknown female whipped out a knife, placed it against her throat and said, “Give me all your [stuff] or I’m going to slit your … throat.” The victim pushed away the knife, which resulted in a small cut to her right thumb. The pair struggled for a short time until the offender was able to gain control of her purse, which contained ID, credit cards and an iPhone. The robber — who was described as black with a light complexion, in her 20s, 5-foot-4, thin; having freckles and cornrows and wearing a large, baggy white Tshirt and large, baggy white khaki shorts — fled southbound on 13th Street. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Village people A Passyunk Square-based nonproﬁt capped years of planning by opening an older adults rental facility. ■ By Joseph Myers R e v i e w S ta f f W r i t e r

hen analyzing communal residential opportunities last year, Josephine Fulginiti knew she needed to nd a place that would accentuate her sociability and with assistance from the St. Maron Community Development Corp., the seeker secured space earlier this spring at Cedars Village, 921-31 Ellsworth St. She, fellow residents and personnel from the nonprofit united May 10 to mark the Passyunk Square location’s grand opening, the culmination of a vision by a neighboring parish’s former pastor. “So far I have enjoyed exploring our commonalities and witnessing how pleasant everyone is,” Fulginiti said Friday, two weeks after her move to the five-story, 22,000-square-foot quarters. “The inhabitants take pride in themselves, which means they will do the same with where they live.” She and the 64-room destination’s other dwellers are bonding thanks to the late Monsignor Sharbel Lischaa, who helmed St. Maron’s Catholic Church, 1013 Ellsworth St., for 36 years and who responded to aging parishioners’ concerns about remaining safely in their homes by courting partners to build a facility. Having established a nonprofit, community members, including representatives from the South Ninth Street Businessmen’s Association, teamed with city, state and federal figures to fund construction. “We are endeavoring to be a great resource for those 55 years of age and older,” corporation board member and parishioner Joseph Katter said of marketing the onetime Philadelphia Parking Authority lot, whose transformation began March 29, 2012. “We consider ourselves very fortunate to have had the chance to help many from that population to remain close to their original residences.” The inhabitant of the 1000 block of Ellsworth Street noted the expanse, whose earliest lodgers signed leases May 1, has filled 42 of its slots, with roughly 60 percent of tenants hailing from South Philly. He and his peers aligned with New Jersey-based Ingerman and Haley Donovan Architecture and Paoli-situated BCM Affordable Housing to erect the project, whose amenities include 28 parking spaces; a rooftop garden assisting in 100 percent stormwater reten-

ti it room; a social i l services i tion; a community suite; and apartments endowed with washer/dryer condensing units and handicap accessible showers. “We have more women than men, but no matter the gender, we are working to keep everyone in their comfort zone so that they don’t feel as if they are going through that much of a change,” corporation board presence Denise Eddis said. The resident of the 900 block of Annin Street has overseen the application process, which has involved helping potential renters to understand income requirements, among other aspects. She has observed their receptivity to their new environs, with property manager Dena Stills-Todd likewise picking up positive feedback. “They love it,” the Ingerman employee, hard at work in preparing social events calendars, said from a deck, a feature on every floor. “They are desiring comfort and to make their apartments seem like their own homes. We’re happy so many of them can stay within walking distance of transportation, stores, worship sites and family, and we’re all about promoting long, healthy lives.” THOUGH A SEPARATE entity, the development corporation has striven to benefit

St. Maron’s, the nation’s second oldest Maronite church. Its constituents had diligently looked to honor the spiritual haven’s need to keep its flock thriving, and with the grand opening behind them, they feel they have partially completed their mission. “Monsignor Sharbel was such a wonderful person,” corporation president and South Ninth Street vice president Lee Esposito said. “He was a regular guy who had this amazing ability to connect with people and understand their situations.” The resident of the 800 block of Carpenter Street recalls the first sermon he heard from the religious leader, who died of kidney disease in August ’11. In it, he advised people not to complain about having problems because needing to face dilemmas means that God has remembered them. The talk hooked Esposito immediately and led to his enhanced involvement in the construction. As far back as ’07, with former 1st District Councilman Frank DiCicco as a supporter, the endeavor looked as if it could occupy the old American Ice and Coal Co., 1101-33 S. Ninth St., Katter said. The site’s demolition occurred a year later, and the corporation soon after learned from the then-politician that he had another developer interested in the land. Offered the parking authority property, the entity accepted and set itself to fostering partnerships with backers. “Overall, everything has moved along smoothly,” Esposito said, adding that Ce-

dars Village rises only three stories along Ellsworth Street to have it comply with the aesthetics of neighboring rowhouses. The Bella Vista inhabitant delivered remarks at the dedication, with DiCicco, his 1st District successor Mark Squilla, state Sen. Larry Farnese, Mayor Michael Nutter and Rev. Vincent Farhat, St. Maron’s current pastor, also addressing the crowd, which witnessed a ribbon-cutting and enjoyed inspecting the building, which includes artwork and vintage South Phillybased photos. “We’ve had many positive reactions, and we’re confident we can provide ample ways for the residents to enjoy their surroundings,” Katter said, with last weekend’s Ninth Street Italian Market Festival and June 14 to 16’s Lebanese Festival at St. Maron’s as cited boons. “I feel they have done a great job putting everything together,” Fulginiti, hopeful that the overseers’ plans will yield trips and other non-facility-situated types of diversions, added. “When I heard of my approval, I had a great feeling that I would be among fantastic individuals, and I’ve not been disappointed.

Seeking shining stars

HIDDEN CITY continued from page 1 for a massive influx of Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe. “Renting began in 1909 and purchasing came a little later,” Levin, inspecting holy books and original light fixtures, said, noting the space’s transformation from a commercial and residential mixture to a spiritual and residential blend. “For the next few decades, it served as a hub of activity until the World War II-era when many Jews moved, leaving only a few to this day.” WITH TWO YEARS as a member, the Bella Vista inhabitant has sought to advocate for an enhanced appreciation of Shivtei Yeshuron, South Philly’s oldest synagogue, which gained its present name with the ’68 acquisition of Congregation Ezras Israel, formerly at Sixth and Cantrell streets. Having developed a great rapport with the population, including president Richard Sisman, who as a boy flocked to the shul for services, Levin last year approached Hidden City, which lists its mission as helping citizens to “be curious about the city, to fall in love with its remarkable but lesser-known places and to give their time, resources and ideas to realize new features for the places and communities where we work.” “I had considered the congregation as hidden in the sense that many people lacked knowledge of our operations,” the overseer said, detailing the review process that culminated with its April 10 selection as the lone South Philly destination. As his ancestors had dutifully explored their heritage, including great-grandparents who lived on the 500 block of Reed Street, he felt he could use Hidden City’s values of accessibility, dialogue, diversity and pragmatism to highlight pride in the past, responsibility for the present and the future of their faith. The middle element involves locating more backers for its upkeep, with benefactors to join volunteers and Councilman at large James Kenney, tomorrow’s honoree for the opening party, who grew up within walking distance of the synagogue and who helped to secure renovation funds in 2007, as sustainers of the beloved spot, which Sisman, a native of the 2000 block of South Fourth Street, thought he had forever parted with upon his 1973 move to Elkins Park. “I’d forgotten about it until I drove by 15 years ago, and it felt like home still when I resumed attending,” the sixth-year leader said. “When I took over, we had many problems with the structure, but I vowed to take care of them.” A deteriorated rear wall led to two citations from the Department of Licenses and Inspections in 2007 and ’08, but matters have improved to give Sisman and Levin

enough confidence to present their location. “We’ve certainly come a long way,” Sisman said. “Now comes the task of completing two prominent ventures.” Levin has loaded the calendar with events he hopes will honor synagogues’ established uses as multifaceted realms for the furthering of social growth. Each week will feature constants, such as tours occurring Thursdays through Sundays; concerts and films addressing topics such as radical music and artistry on select Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays; a Sunday speaker series that will address South Philly’s Jewish identity in the 1960s and ’70s and Jewish baseball players, among other topics; and knitting sessions that will yield a sweater that organizers will drape across the facade. “We really see the festival as a jumpingoff point for our long-term plan of promoting the possibilities of this space,” Levin, whose June 16 speaker series entry will address South Philly’s role in the back-tothe-land movement that saw Jews establish a colony in Clarion, Utah, more than a century ago, said. “That’s part of the greatness of our being involved; we obtain satisfaction from exploring ideas and addressing their relevance to contemporary life.” The father of two girls finds particularly interesting the chance to analyze gender’s role in approaching one’s faith. Seating around 90, the synagogue once adhered to the traditional practice of having females occupy the upstairs portion during

services, with the altar visible through the removal of two sections of flooring. It no longer requires parting, more interested in immersion than separation, with spiritual yearning teaming with communal opportunities to craft Sisman’s two-fold wish. “We have a great interest in increasing our size,” the former resident said, adding his preference for gathering the 10 men, or minyan, required for Saturday services. “Along with building up our options for the second floor, I would love for our growth to be a product of the festival. I really feel we could have an impact on fostering discussions about how to improve places like ours, which have meant so much to so many for so long.” Sisman, who will assist with this Sunday’s talk on local Jewish identity, commended Levin for being a persistent believer in the sustenance of the expanse that has helped them to chart their tenures as neighborhood advocates. “I agree it does have a home feel,” Levin said from the third-floor space that served as a bedroom for visiting rabbis. “Our congregation gives people a chance to see a smaller, tactile campus with a great background and numerous aspirations.” SPR For more information, visit thelittleshul. org or festival.hiddencityphila.org.

Safeguarding the future A Packer Park security ﬁgure earned a top accolade from an education and recreation overseer. ■ By Joseph Myers R e v i e w S ta f f W r i t e r

member of a large family committed to caring for communities, Ronald Rabena sees his altruistic actions as products of his upbringing. Accustomed to giving, the resident of the 3200 block of South 17th Street received a Police Athletic League Award May 8 for fostering positivity among city youngsters, including participants at Ford PAL, 631 Snyder Ave. “I remain indebted to the overall organization for its role in molding me,” the 53-year-old Packer Park dweller and division president of national security operations for AlliedBarton Security Services said last week from his Center City office, just feet away from the Sheraton Philadelphia Downtown Hotel, the site of the ceremony. “I’m happy, too, to promote its excellence by looking to make a difference in as many neighborhoods as possible in Philadelphia and beyond.” Rabena, who initiated his interaction with his photo provided by C h r i s t o p h e r Lyo n s

hometown’s 66-year-old PAL chapter as an 11-year-old attendee at its former Crisconi location, Broad and Jackson streets, learned of his commendation from board of directors chairwoman Sylvia Nisenbaum early this year. A 15-year board presence with extensive committee duties, he found the news surprising and humbling and conveyed that to his audience. “Anybody familiar with me knows I don’t do anything for awards,” he said. “I’m active because we need to build up our children’s confidence and make investments in worthwhile futures.” Standing before the crowd, he noted his pride in evolving from “a PAL kid” to “a PAL man.” He has enjoyed the transition because it provides daily reminders of lessons the system gave him as a boy. “My first attraction to PAL was its emphasis on teamwork,” Rabena said, adding his childhood engagement in baseball and basketball has assisted his handling of more than 60,000 AlliedBarton workers. “Being from South Philly, too, I feel it has played a role in keeping me grounded and appreciating diversity. Because of those elements, I’m dedicated to helping it thrive.” The humanitarian has shown his allegiance through three gigantic initiatives.

Calling on colleagues within the Building Owners and Managers Association five years ago, he helped to establish April’s Cops Helping Kids Day, through which officers and children visit at least 20 highrise buildings to generate funds from employees and occupants. This year’s $40,000 endowment upped the tally to $120,000, which along with the $970,000 he and his associates raised for PAL in conjunction with his commemoration have proven him a reliable financial benefactor. He also has acted as an aesthetic enhancer by guiding upgrades to PAL centers, including the aforementioned spot, which has improved bathrooms, refurbished floors, fresh paint, a computer learning center and space for older adults to interact. He is striving to prepare teenagers for postsecondary education and employment through his newest brainchild, Best Foot Forward, which he would like to implement across the country, especially in the 44 states where AlliedBarton operates. “It would be assistance applicable to any field,” he said of the application and interview tutelage. “I’m convinced it will be a home run.” HAILING FROM THE 3200 block of South Juniper Street, Rabena matured among

Nutter, a 2009 victor; and Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr., an ’11 commendee. “There’s a ton of work to be done still,” Rabena, a member of the Packer Park Civic Association who Tuesday also picked up a merit award from the Philadelphia Crime Commission, on whose executive board he serves, said, applauding tireless motivation from his family, including Donna, his wife of 28 years, their 23-yearold daughter Amanda and 18-year-old son Ronald Jr. “South Philly has so much to offer, and I want to help to make it even more promising.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphilllyreview.com or ext. 124.

Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., and Community College of Philadelphia, aligned himself with SpectaGuard as a security officer through the defunct arena and began his ascension through the company, which acquired then-Pittsburgh-based Allied Security in 2000 and then-Atlantacentered Barton Protective Services four years later to arrive at its present name. No matter his title with the currently Conshohocken-headquartered entity, the largest American-owned security officer services company, he always has sought to bond with those who hold the welfare of children in high regard. “I loved being part of the protection of people as they attended events,” he said of his former work within the sports complex. “In addition, I gained opportunities to interact with so many individuals whose ‘We serve’ mentality extended to the education of children.” Through his advocacy, children as young as 6 have gained vital exposure to academ-

Cardella

By Tom Cardella Columnist

Wit or wit out

he Cato Institute and the Heritage Foundation are two conservative think tanks. I don’t know about you, but when I hear the phrase “think tank,” I have this mental picture of old, wise men in togas sitting in a silent conference room, pondering for eight hours a day — not stopping for lunch (steak sandwiches “wit” and “wit out” cheese with fries on the side). Cato favors the current immigration bill and its members like steak sandwiches “wit” and Heritage is opposed to the bill and its employees like their sandwiches “wit out.” Their split (on the bill, not the steak sandwiches) is mirrored in Congress among Republicans. Among other things, the immigration reform bill would require the approximately 11 million illegal immigrants currently living in the United States to go to the back of the line before they can become U.S. citizens and that we spend an additional $7 billion on border security. The opposition to the bill essentially doesn’t want any more immigrants and keeps raising the threshold for approving any reform bill. The entire mess can be understood better by using the steak sandwich example. Let’s say you want to do something about undocumented immigrants in the United States, not because you’re a humanitarian, but you think it might add to our national security. We could know the identity of these folks if only to make sure they paid taxes when they work in the gardens of America, mind our kids and pick our fruit. So you come up with a way to do this, making sure you don’t tick off those who have come here legally. You make the illegal immigrants wait five years before they can apply for U.S. citizenship. Here’s where my steak sandwich example comes into play. Say the owner of a local steak sandwich shop represents Congress (this is Philly we’re talking about here). Immigrants come up to your window all of the time. All you ask is they tell you in “proper” English whether they want their steak “wit or wit out” the cheese. Sometimes the immigrants stumble because “wit” and “wit out” doesn’t translate well into their own language, but who cares, they’re in America now so they should start acting like Americans. Your sandwiches are popular so the immigrants keep coming. Soon you singlehandedly have succeeded in getting four different Asian languages, as well as

■ s o u t h p h i l l y r e v i e w.c o m

Spanish, and Portuguese to come up with words for “wit” and “wit out.” All seems well, but the illegal immigrants are impossible to tell from the legal immigrant customers. You have thought about requiring them to show their papers or green cards, as the case may be, but you don’t want the damned American Civil Liberties Union and all those other troublemakers on your back. You’ve thought about moving your shop to Arizona where they would appreciate your efforts at keeping out the “illegals,” but who the hell wants to live in the desert, even if the humidity is low when it hits 102? In reality, your Congress is not a steak shop. You’re not worried about customers, you just don’t like today’s immigrants legal or illegal. Of course, being a member of Congress is a lot tougher than running a steak sandwich shop because you have to keep getting elected to remain in office. You can’t admit what you really want is for these illegal immigrants to go back where they came from, and if they take some of the “legals” back with them, so much the better. What was that Romney term — ”selfdeportation”? You come up with a strategy: Every time the pro-immigration folks offer an immigration reform plan, you move the goal posts, so to speak. Or better yet, raise the stakes (steaks — get it?). The opposition is willing to support the following conditions for making the illegal immigrants, currently living in the United States, become legal: Wait five leap years, pass a test on colonial candlestick making, sing the “Star-Spangled Banner” in the correct key (you chuckle over that one), pay back taxes, sacrifice their first born (one less immigrant) and mine our borders with small nuclear devices set to explode at the hint of an accent, no matter how slight. That’s their offer, you immediately reject it as “amnesty” and totally inadequate. You keep offering counterproposals that would add requirements, such as name all of the “American Idol” winners in the history of the show, write an essay on how Shakespeare would have translated “wit” and “wit out” into old English, explain why no group ever protests the Third Amendment of the U.S. Constitution that requires an owner’s consent before a soldier can be quartered in their home, predict when Ben Revere will get his first MLB home run, promise to never order Manchego cheese on a steak sandwich or for that matter ever open a competitor steak sandwich shop. If the reformers agree to those conditions, you’ve got an ace up your sleeve. Let’s see if they’ll agree to keep the Italian Market off limits to future immigrants. You call your offer a reasonable path to citizenship. SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/opinion/ cardella.

Sophie (Mickey Summer), from left, and Frances (Greta Gerwig) are at a crossroads and must discover what it truly means to grow up.

Lasting impressions ■ By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

n a media culture that’s deeply saturated with reactions to millenial disenchantment, from HBO’s “Girls” to a couple hundred male-who-can’t-growup dramedies, “Frances Ha” feels like an artistic breaking point, a seemingly unparalleled gem that captures the zeitgeist, yet imbues it with a timelessness that will help it last the ages. Directed by Noah Baumbach and starring Greta Gerwig (two talents who cowrote the script and are also a real-life couple), the movie blends its maestro’s cinephilia with its leading lady’s mumblecore roots, resulting in a chatty, yet poignant, tale that’s of this moment and many others too. Filmed in black-and-white, and thus calling to mind the high-contrast glory of Woody Allen’s “Manhattan” (a surefire influence), this New York character study follows Frances (Gerwig), an aspiring dancer, as she struggles to live on next to nothing in the wake of her “breakup” with best friend and roommate Sophie (Mickey Sumner), who takes a big adult step by settling into a committed relationship. Frances moves from apartment to apartment, and her migrations are gloriously scored to an array of buoyant tunes, from banjo music to 1980s standards. Both irrepressibly lovable and frustratingly self-defeating (she wants a dance career, but won’t take a desk job to keep her fed in the meantime), the character is a beautiful contradiction, and a fanciful, yet highly familiar, poster girl for the 20and 30-somethings who wrestle regularly with malaise, malcontent, entitlement, and other results of growing up in a mercurial

first-world society. If these descriptors imply at all that “Frances Ha” is shallow, fear not: The film is a model of how to make a talky film and actually have it speak volumes, rather than vanish into the ether with all the other loquacious comedies. When Frances worriedly tells a waiter she’s “not an adult yet” because she doesn’t have a credit card, the line feels less like a gag than a generational gut-punch. And merged with Baumbach’s breezy, New Wave-y sensibilities, it all jells together into something quite magical.

Frances Ha R Three-and-a-half reels out of four Opens tomorrow at the Ritz Five

Recommended Rental Lore NR Available Tuesday

A politically-charged critical favorite, Cate Shortland’s “Lore” tells the tale of a group of Germans who fend for themselves after their SS-soldier father and Nazi-cheerleading mother are cpatured at the end of WWII. The titular teen (Saskia Rosendahl) leads her siblings through their ravaged homeland and finds her beliefs challenged along with her life. A riveting drama about atonement, ideals, and coming of age in the direst of circumstances.

is the season for Memorial Day weekend celebrations. After firing up the grill for the unofficial start of summer, throw on the usual hot dogs and hamburgers. While the traditional favorites are being prepared outside, someone else can be indoors cooking Jessica Macerato’s Sweet-and-Sour Spare Ribs. The resident of the 1900 block of South Mole Street marinates and cooks her version on the stovetop, so be sure to set aside some prep time. SPR

INGREDIENTS:

DIRECTIONS:

2 pounds of lean pork spare ribs, cut in single ribs 3 tablespoon of sugar 2 tablespoons of light soy sauce 1 tablespoon of black soy sauce 1 tablespoon of red rice vinegar 1 tablespoon of ketchup 1 tablespoon of white wine 1/2 cup of water

Trim the fat from the ribs. Then rinse and pat them dry with a paper towel. Place the ribs in a 3-quart saucepan, sprinkle with the sugar and toss. Marinate for 30 minutes. Pour out excess liquid. Add the rest of the ingredients to the pan, stir and bring to a boil on high heat. Cover and simmer for an hour or until the ribs are tender and falling off of the bone. Check occasionally to ensure liquid has not reduced. If so, add

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

have never met an Asian cuisine I didn’t like. China’s diverse regions feature a wide variety of dishes ranging from hot-and-spicy lamb to delicate fish. Japan’s sushi and tempura are a light way to lunch while Vietnamese fare includes a tasty French influence. One may eat with a knife and fork at Thai restaurants as he or she enjoys the often artful creations on the plate. I always finish the carrot, turnip and radish roses. I came to try Korean food for the first time a number of years ago when my friend Sunny, who came to Philly with her family from South Korea when she was a little girl, and I dined at Giwa on Sansom Street. She explained the importance of sauces and small dishes that complement the Korean meal. I have walked by Wajoe a few times over the past few months before I finally got the chance to try it. It is an unassuming, bright space with a waiter who was so helpful, caring and polite that I tipped my toque right away. Edward and I thought a light French sauvignon blanc would complement the sometimes spicy Korean fare. Thank goodness the menu did not read like “War and Peace.” So many Asian restaurants go way too far with too many dizzying choices. Our server brought us small dishes filled with soy sauce along with a threecompartment rectangular dish containing slightly marinated bean sprouts, a cool version of a mayonnaise-free potato salad Coffee/Café/Sweets Caffe Chicco: 2532 S.

and carrot and broccoli slices. The scoop of cool, lightly seasoned, creamy potatoes was a surprise, but one can assume America’s influenced played a part here. I sampled the separate oval dish filled with kimchee. Vegetables were pickled and preserved to taste hot and spicy but this one did not make me reach for an antacid. It was perfectly prepared with sliced cabbage, carrots and turnips marinated with garlic and ginger that produced the right touch of heat. Dinner began with five outstanding beef and pork dumplings ($5) obviously made with homemade noodle wrappers. The seasoned, minced beef-and-pork mix peeked through the noodles that were so thin and translucent, I could have read a newspaper through them. I did not know a Korean pancake ($12) existed until I saw it on the menu. I like Vietnamese pancakes, so we gave this one a try. Edward and I thought it was more of an Asian pizza. It was prepared with tiny bits of fresh squid, crab, shrimp and chopped vegetables. I liked the kick the scallions gave to the mild fish. The pancake arrived on a sizzling platter and was cut into small squares for easy eating. I have only tried Korean barbecue once before. After some back and forth we went for the short rib ($23). Our server lit the electric grill in the center of our table and brought down a long tubular exhaust. He brought us slices of beef that were first braised on the bone and then removed. A large, thick slice of sweet onion was set in the center of the grill. He placed the sliced beef around the edge of the grill Restaurant Review:

and we had fun tossing it around with our chopsticks until it was done. A large platter of cool, crisp green oak lettuce leaves along with a bowl of shredded sweet onions and scallions covered with soy sauce and seasoning came with the barbecue. Once the bite-size portions of short rib were done, we took a lettuce leaf, nestled in a small amount of shredded onions and scallions and topped it with the short rib. I enjoyed the combination of hot and cool temperatures in the lettuce wraps. Grilling dinner at the table was fun. = Very Good

Noord’s Seared Norwegian Salmon

itting in the middle of his 38-seat restaurant at 1046 Tasker street, chef Joncarl Lachman is a hot topic of

neighborhood conversation as Noord, his classic bistro, opened earlier this month. The former Southwest Philadelphian most recently spent time running the Chicago-based Home Bistro, which he still owns. Coming home, however, always has been on Lachman’s mind. “I’ve been trying to come back to Philly for a while,” Lachman, who runs the spot with partner Robert Moysan, said. “During one of my trips, I came down to [East] Passyunk Avenue on a beautiful summer afternoon and I was just charmed by it.” A meeting with Passyunk Avenue Revitalization Corp. Executive Director Sam Sherman Jr. helped to finalize the deal. The graduate of New York’s Institute of Culinary Education has created a menu featuring dishes inspired by his family’s Dutch heritage — including Seared Norwegian Salmon, as well as his travels around northern Europe.

Chef Joncarl Lachman

Noord Owners: Joncarl Lachman, Robert Moysan and Richard Renn Opened: May 8, 2013 1046 Tasker St. 267-909-9704 noordphilly.com

With guidance from mentor and famed chef Anne Rosenzweig and a passion for cooking, Lachman opened Home Bistro in 2007. Now, he is preparing dishes on one of the 10 Best Foodie Streets in America. “There is some pressure, too, because you have to deliver,” the now-East Passyunk Crossing resident said.

INGREDIENTS: 3 tablespoons of butter 1 leek (white and light green part only), chopped 1 large yellow onion, diced 3/4 pound of potatoes, cubed and peeled 1 large carrot, sliced 2 celery ribs, sliced 3/4 pound of salmon ﬁlet, skinned, deboned and cut into small chunks 3 cups of vegetable stock 1 bay leaf

3/4 cup of cream 1 tablespoon of coriander Zest of 1 lemon Kosher salt and white pepper, to taste Fresh parsley and dill, for topping

DIRECTIONS: In a large saucepan, heat the butter, onion, leek, carrot and celery over medium. Gently season and stir for five minutes. Add the salmon and lightly

season (seasoning in layers helps to bring out the flavor of all the individual ingredients). Cook slowly until the salmon is almost opaque. Add the stock and bay leaf and bring to a light rolling boil. Turn down the heat and stir in the cream. Add the coriander and zest and season to taste. Finish with the fresh herbs and serve, topped with a seared salmon filet. SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/ food-and-drink/features.

How any times Marie did I call your name and here we are again, another year will pass us by. It’s always the same as the day you went away. I will always love you and never forget you. Part of me is with you and I know you feel the same. Say hi to Mom & Charles

MARIE & LEO

Mom

Twenty years have come to pass since the time I saw you last. There has not been enough time gone by, that my thoughts of you still make me cry. I wonder all the time if you can see me and, if you can am I the man you wanted me to be? I can still hear your stern voice telling me what to do; when you’re young it’s called being mean, but later in life you learn that’s not true. In our short time together you taught me more than anyone ever could, I just wish we had more time like a Mother and Son should. For those of you who knew her, you could never forget her. You are always on my mind.

Love your baby boy

The reality is that you have been gone for three years, but my feeling is that not one minute has gone by. Time has seemed to stand still without you. Your gentle spirit and soft spoken kindness has always touched my heart and the beautiful memories which I will forever cherish. Your 21st birthday is here and I have always been so proud of the boy that you were and the man I know you would have become. It will never be goodbye, you live in my heart, where you have always been. Where love lives on forever.

May march

An East Passyunk Crossing baseball team staved off postseason elimination in an extra-inning thriller. ■ By Joseph Myers R e v i e w S ta f f W r i t e r

s the Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School Saints baseball players prepared to take their positions against the Cardinal O’Hara Lions Friday at McNichol Field, 26th and Moore streets, second-year coach Mike “Big Zoom” Zolk barked “Let’s bury them.” Nearly ready for internment themselves after falling behind 5-0, his athletes exhumed their bats to register an 8-7 extra-inning playoff victory to keep alive their hopes of winning a third-straight Catholic League title. “We have the most heart, and we’re never down mentally even when we’re down on the scoreboard,” senior third baseman Nick Simon said after his misplayed ninth-inning ground ball allowed junior designated hitter Joe McKinley to touch home plate with the winning run. The East Passyunk Crossing representatives, 1736 S. 10th St., had entered the game with extra pressure. With the league having instituted a double-elimination format, they dropped May 15’s postseason opener to the St. Joe’s Prep Hawks 7-2 and called on senior right-hander and SecondTeam All-Catholic John LaMotta to shut down their Delaware County foes. The Marymount University signee zipped crisp fastballs in the early frames and looked to receive support in the second when senior left fielder Joe Kinee advanced to third with one out. A botched squeeze play erased the future Maine University attendee, and freshman shortstop Nicky D’Amore stranded two other Saints with a groundout. The third inning proved equally frustrating as Simon, of the 900 block of Wolf Street, and junior first baseman Josh Ockimey, a First-Team league honoree, made their way into scoring position before Kinee, another First-Team selection, took a called third strike. LaMotta continued to craft comfortable innings yet could not will any teammates across the plate as the

themselves, offering “Let’s hit” as their collective cry.

s q u a d s e n t e r e d t h e sixth scoreless. The Blue Division’s Saints had not faced the Red Division’s Lions in the regular season, during which the locals tallied an 8-4 mark to nab their section’s third seed. Having also lost their first playoff tilt, the visitors appeared eager to claim a huge scalp and scored a twoout run to break the undesired tie. After a grand slam flew over Kinee’s head, the hosts gathered and demanded more from

FOLLOWING THE SECOND-INNING miscue that led to Kinee’s being caught in a rundown, Zolk voiced his frustration with his roster members’ season of sporadic hitting. Giving them the green light to swing away, he requested that they score 10 runs by the end of the sixth. With a goose egg to their names as they took their sixth cuts, senior second baseman Joey Glennon yearned to begin the comeback but looked at a third strike. With Ockimey having drawn a walk and Kinee having skied out to center, junior right fielder Charlie Jerla also worked a free pass to give McKinley an opportunity

PRO SPORTS at southphillyreview.com/blogs.php to give the guests even the slightest sense of panic, as he promptly singled to load the bases. Having succeeded his brother, 2012 alumnus Nicky Nardini, as the team’s starting catcher, sophomore Tommy Nardini showed his might by dumping a two-run single into center field to bolster what Simon had already called “a ton of confidence” on the Saints’ bench. After two walks and a hit batsman brought home two more scratches, Glennon, hitless in three prior at-bats, looked to make pitching coach Joseph Messina seem a seer. “Yeah, he’d said that the bigger the game, the more I come through,” the resident of the 1600 block of Pollock Street said of the coach’s speech at the previous evening’s sports banquet. “I’d been struggling lately, so I wanted to battle.” The composed figure ripped a single that, coupled with an error, cleared the bases and had the Saints’ faithful followers shouting and making it seem as if the Lions would indeed have the date with the dirt that Zolk desired. Jerla came in to record the save, but four walks, a single and a fielder’s choice knotted the score. Following a four-batter home seventh, the teams prepared for extra play, with Jerla vowing to suppress the opposition and the hitters each looking to be the overall hero. The left-handed hurler permitted only one runner in the additional sessions and watched with anticipation as Simon came up with two on and one gone. Rifling a shot to the shortstop, he scampered to first as McKinley and sophomore outfielder Pat Doudican activated their legs. When McKinley scored, pandemonium ensued, though the result failed to stun Simon. “We worked hard to have these kinds of opportunities,” the Lower Moyamensing dweller said. “We didn’t want to get bounced today. In fact, we never want to or think we’re going to lose.” With the win, the Saints ensured Monday’s trip to Archbishop Wood, where they fell 6-1 and to halt hopes of a Catholic League three-peat. At press time, Neumann-Goretti was awaiting word on its City and State playoff games. SPR Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

Prep Charter penalized

new Public League girls’ basketball champion will be crowned in 2014 as Prep Charter, 1928 Point Breeze Ave., has been banned from postseason play for the upcoming ’13-’14 school year as a result of using ineligible players. According to published reports, multiple players used false city addresses so they could enroll at the West Passyunk school. The students actually resided in Coatesville. The local squad defeated the Central Lancers, 56-37, in last season’s title tilt. At the time, league officials were investigating the allegations that the champs had used ineligible players. The PIAA District XII board also ruled last week that the Lady Huskies will retain their ’13 league crown. Prep Charter’s entire athletic program also has been placed on probation for two years.

Now is a good time to address your roof after this tough winter season. Ice & snow freezing and melting opens flashings, lifts seams, drain box seals open, and even high winds can cause capping to blow loose!

By having a qualified roofer do an inspection now, it may save you $$ from water damage later. Sometimes only minor maintenance is needed. So how do you find a qualified roofing company? The Better Business Bureau and other websites post reviews online, and in Pa all home improvement contractors must have an Attorney General’s license. It’s blue and should be readily available to be shown to you and it means your contractor is fully licensed & insured, and must follow the roofing industry standards set by the state. Another way is to see how long the company has been in business, is it local, family owned, has a neighbor used them successfully, do they have a web site, have they won any awards, helped out in the community, are they working on a regular basis in the area? Following these guidelines will help in the search for an honest and qualified roofer!
