T
aylor Belton aspires to be a choreographer, but last week allowed history to begin its dance into her
heart. The 11-year-old student at William Meredith School, 725 S. Fifth St., joined more than 100 honorees at the six-day People to People World Leadership Forum in Washington, D.C., a reward for her academic endeavors, civic efforts and leadership prospects. The adventure added her name to the thousands that have earned guidance in promoting cultural understanding and world peace since People to People’s 1956 institution. See BELTON page 8

The Girard Estate school recently bid farewell to its long-tenured principal, whose retirement will lessen its budget woes. By Joseph Myers r e v i e w s ta f f w r i t e r
“T
he only way this nation is going to continue to move forward is to invest in education,” Dr. Angelo F. Milicia said Monday at the Girard Academic Music Program, 2136 Ritner St.
In announcing his retirement last month, the 62-year-old gave new meaning to putting one’s money where one’s mouth is, as his decision will aid the cash-strapped institution by sustaining two teachers’ jobs and most of its lauded music program. His departure as principal will end a 16-year affiliation with the school and will allow assistant principal Dr. Jack Carr to head
the facility he helped to establish in 1974. Milicia, with local roots that stretch back to his elementary and secondary school days at the now defunct St. Edmond’s, 23rd and Mifflin streets, and Bishop Neumann High School, Seventh and Christian streets, vacillated on severing his immeSee MILICIA page 10

The avenue: Then and now To the Editor: Much thanks to the South Philly Review for publishing the article by Amanda L. Snyder on our renewed Singing Fountain at 11th and Tasker streets (“Splash on Passyunk,” June 23). Amanda was so kind to interview not only the people responsible for its renovation, but also some of the neighbors like me who have lived with the many changes in our community. Between the newly installed Joey Giardello statue and the Singing Fountain lies a vibrant, cosmopolitan Passyunk Avenue that my grandparents would not recognize. When they settled there more than 100 years ago, the avenue was mostly a mom and pop manufacturing center, a beehive of commerce among craftsmen and their suppliers mingled with restaurants and other small businesses. Where the parking lot is on the 1600 block, we had the Alhambra Movie Theater. Italians, Jews and Irish populated the avenue. Vendors plied their wares from horse-drawn wagons over a cobbled street. Even milk in glass bottles was delivered by horse. And, yes, an umbrella repairman worked door-to-door. It was always a busy corridor, not accustomed to European-style outdoor dining, fountains and sculpture. Until now. Now, the community has a lovely, welcoming place to meet and talk, as in, “Meet me at the Fountain.” Sweet. Gloria C. Endres South Philadelphia
Not big on BigBelly To the Editor: While I appreciate and encourage practices (especially those which involve a city department) that are more sustainable and “greener” than those of the past, I am not yet sold on the BigBelly (“Reducing waste, June 23) guys. Indeed, Philadelphians deserve whatever benefits come their way. But, our new environmentally friendly (and expensive), solar-powered, compacting trash cans leave something to be desired in the design department. Perhaps they are efficient, but has anyone noticed the handle one must pull down in order to put your trash in (it looks like a silver nightstick)? Much more eco-friendly
than user-friendly — considering the number of hands that likely grab it in a day. Thom Doorhy South Philadelphia
Transformation is in order To the Editor: Poverty and crime continue to spread and destroy Philly neighborhoods. As each day passes, an epidemic gains more momentum. City government alone cannot fight this battle. Throughout a growing number of communities are slumlords, street violence, trash, graffiti, broken beer bottles and drug paraphernalia. Out in broad daylight, drug transactions occur routinely on several street corners and many community members are terrified to speak up because the fear of reprisal against their loved ones. The police come and go; they don’t have a constant presence. Local government in partnership with major corporations and the prestigious universities in the city should make a united pledge to invest in a long-term mission that transforms the neighborhoods that have fallen on hard times into thriving communities, even if the pace of the project was one block at a time. A paradigm shift would have to occur which the community as a whole must believe in a grass-roots movement that saving a life, can save a community. There needs to be a better solution than an exit strategy to the suburbs. What happens to the vulnerable populations that are left behind? The overwhelming majority of senior citizens live on fixed incomes and cannot afford to escape. Jason Kaye Northeast Philadelphia
Dangers of distraction To the Editor: The National Transportation Safety Board’s final report on the July 2010 fatal duck boat crash in Philadelphia determined distraction caused by repeated cell phone and laptop use while navigating the vessel led to the fatal accident.
This is a poignant reminder about the deadly consequences of operating heavy machinery — tug boat, train, bus, truck or car — while distracted. In ’09, 5,474 people lost their lives and an estimated 448,000 people were injured in police-reported crashes in which at least one form of driver distraction was reported on the crash report. Eighteen percent of fatalities were the result of distracted driving. With smart technology integrated into every facet of our busy lives, many people don’t think twice about using it when they get behind the wheel. If you are driving a car, you are really operating a piece of heavy machinery. Taking your focus from that task can lead to a preventable accident and worse — a loss of life. Keep your eyes on the road, hands on the wheel and your mind on the responsibility of driving. Jim Lardear Director, Public and Government Affairs AAA Mid-Atlantic
A vote for enforcing fines To the Editor: In reply to Bob Goode, (“Soiled in a dilemma,” June 23) I am a responsible dogowner. I recently wrote in about converting an abandoned lot that a car repair shop on 13th Street has been using to junk up a neighborhood, to a “dog-friendly area.” I too, am amazed how people also can be so caring about their dogs, be so rude, uncaring — and above all — unclean about their pets’ waste. Even more amazing is when I approach fellow dogowners with a plastic bag, they act like I am the ignorant person. I think the City of Philadelphia should enforce stronger fines for this unhealthy disregard. I view this the same as actual human feces being left on streets and sidewalks. Just because it is a dog does not make this acceptable. Shaynee Cook and Brisco South Philadephia Comment on these letters or topics at www.southphillyreview.com/opinion/ letters.

@ Got any spare change? June 23
I
�My wallet’s been stolen and I’ve got to pick up my kid at school, so could you spare a dollar for bus fare?� — to the humorously credible —�Can you spare me a dollar so I can get drunk?� What’s a do-gooder like me supposed to do? One idea is to stick my spare change in parking meters. That’s right: In Salt Lake City, officials have designated certain parking meters to collect coins on behalf of the Pamela J. Atkinson Foundation, which in turn disperses the funds to homeless agencies in the city. Adding to these funds is a program allowing merchants to purchase a one-year sponsorship of each meter for $1,000. Police also are being tasked with distributing cards to panhandlers that outline an array of service organizations. Getting a handle on America’s homeless population is a time-consuming effort, but at least Salt Lake has enacted small endeavors that literally make cents. SPR

f you’re anything like me (my apologies if that’s the case), you tense up at the sight of panhandlers. You’re walking down a city block and you see their extended hand begging for whatever you’re willing to supply them. I don’t make eye contact with them, but rather look to the ground and mumble a “no, sorry� when they utter their request for spare change, even if I may have a buck to share. If I’m toting leftover food, I’ll typically hand it over, but money is a different story, probably because I’m skeptical of how it will be used. I’ve heard some outrageous claims, ranging from the unbelievable —

What appears to be a drug-related shooting left a man in critical condition with multiple bullet wounds Friday. By Amanda L. Snyder Review Managing Editor
T
hree were arrested for their involvement in shooting a man in his Grays Ferry basement Friday. Malik Robertson, 24, of the Northeast, Earl Manley, 24 of North Philly, and a juvenile, for whom police did not release an age or address, allegedly walked inside an unlocked home on the 2800 block of Cantrell Street and entered the basement at 10:54 a.m., Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. There, a 22-yearold was shot multiple times in the face, head and abdomen until he was unconscious. The trio allegedly fled west on Cantrell and south on South 29th Street in a Mercury Grand Marquis, Tolliver said. As they are believed to have reached Vare Avenue, police were driving toward the automobilewhen the suspects allegedly traveled north in reverse on South 29th and continued going backward on Winton Street until striking a parked vehicle. Upon police arrival, the crashed car was running, but its occupants were no longer inside. Police saw Robertson allegedly fleeing the scene, but apprehended him and later located Manley and the teen in the neighborhood. Police found the victim in the living room of the home conscious, but suffering from gunshot wounds, Tolliver said. A medic transported him to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania where doctors immediately performed surgery and ad name: LawOfAlfonso listed him in critical stable condition. size: but 1/4 expected run date: 6/30/11 Upon receiving a search warrant, police designer initials: DP recovered ballistics evidence, narcotic #1: packaging and rev paraphernalia and various rev #2: narcotics, Tolliver said. rev #3: All three offenders were charged with criminal attempted murder, conspiracy publication: SPR murder, burglary, criminal trespassing, sales rep: AB possession of an instrument of crime, aggravated assault, simple assault, recklessly endangering another person and firearm violations.
Violent relations Police are looking for the shooter in a homicide of a Point Breeze man. Dwayne Lawson, 20, of the 2000 block of Mountain Street, was involved in a dispute with his sister and her live-in boyfriend inside a home on the 2000 block of Morris Street at 12:34 a.m., Officer Tanya Little of the Police Public Affairs Unit said. During the argument of an un-
known nature, a known offender to police is believed to have shot the man once in the head. The victim was transported to HUP and pronounced dead 11 minutes later, Little said. The shooter has not yet been arrested nor has his name been released as of press time. To report information, call Homicide Division at 215-686-3334 or visit www. phillypolice.com/forms.
Around the bend slaying A man, who suffered gunshot wounds to his upper body, died at the scene — just around the corner from his West Passyunk home Sunday. 1st District police reported to the 2600 block of Jackson Street at 12:18 a.m. to find Dwayne Issacs, 48, of the 2100 block of South 26th Street, lying on the street with multiple wounds to his head, neck and chest, Officer Christine O’Brien of the Police Public Affairs Unit said. He was pronounced dead 12 minutes later. Police did not have any suspects or a motive as of press time. To report information, call Homicide Division at 215-686-3334 or visit www. phillypolice.com/forms.
Convicted predator unlisted The U.S. Marshal Service is seeking a potential South Philly man, who has allegedly relocated from Virginia, but has not registered as a sex offender. Landell Barnett, 44, formerly of Richmond pled guilty to sexually assaulting a child between the ages of 13 and 15 four years ago and served time behind Landell Barnett bars, according to Virginia court records. He is currently on probation for the crime that occurred July 4, 2005. Barnett, who is believed to be a Philly native living in South Philly and working in construction, is now wanted for failure to register as a sex offender in addition to failure to appear in court in Philly for theft charges, as well as in Virginia for traffic charges. Barnett is described as 5-foot-11, 210 pounds with black hair and blown eyes. To report information, call the U.S. Marshal Service’s 24-hour tip line at 866-865-8477.
Police Report
Dog down A pit bull that charged from a residence was struck and slain by police gunfire early Sunday. Officers and medics responded to the 1200 block of Wilder Street to check on someone for a hospital case at 1:23 a.m., Officer Christine O’Brien of the Police Public Affairs Unit said. Police knocked on the door of the home with the canine inside, so authorities demanded the dog be restrained for medical personnel to enter. The dog was not and charged out the door at the officers and paramedics. An officer fired one shot at the dog, which ran up the street and died.

BELTON
continued from page 1 “I was surprised but excited,” the resident of the 700 block of South Fifth Street said of learning early last year of her nomination by Dr. Anita Aguilar, her fifth-grade teacher. Her acceptance came shortly after, leaving Taylor and her mother Aisha Belton with the task of covering the program’s tuition. Families can choose a feasible session, so the two selected the June 20 to 25 forum to prevent much interference with school. She received minimal exposure to irony in attending a gathering so history heavy, as the spectacled youth does not count becoming familiar with the past among her pursuits. “The facilitators made the time more interactive, so I was able to have more fun,” the honor roll student said. Her enjoyment began each day with bus trips from Herndon, Va. Her first time being away from home prompted tears from her mother, but Taylor made her stay about smiles. “I had never heard of People to People, so I was ready to experience everything, including making friends,” she said. Friendships came quickly, as Taylor fraternized with multiple groups and started bonds with residents of six other states. Her packed schedule made becoming chummy with the annals of time easy, too, as she often experienced 14-hour days. Each day possessed a theme that coincided with the World Leadership Forum’s emphasis on the last 150 years of American history. With prominent roles in her school’s choir, dance ensemble and plays, Taylor warmed to the task of engrossing herself in the lives of others who have made facing the foreground their calling. “I think I am a leader because I will help anyone,” she said. “I am smart, honest, responsible and respectful.” Her main exposure to people deserving of those and similar adjectives began on her second day with an exploration of Capitol Hill. Through Kenneth T. Walsh, the chief White House correspondent for U.S. News & World Report, she became more knowledgeable of the divisions of the U.S. government and stopped at the Supreme Court, its judicial branch. The rest of the day yielded a visit to The Library of Congress and the favorite aspect of her pilgrimage, dinner at The Royal Embassy of Saudi Arabia. “I liked the clothing,” she said of the authorities’ distinctive garb. While wardrobes wowed her eyes, the edibles stuffed her stomach. “I had salad, chicken, lemon rice and pomegranate and mousse cakes,” she said. “Everything was delicious.”
Taylor Belton, background, will spend part of her summer helping her 3-year-old sister Morgan to learns the ins and outs of being a responsible youngster. S ta f f P h o t o b y G r e g B e z a n i s
DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER, the 34th President of the U.S. began the People to People movement to prove that ordinary citizens are as instrumental in securing world peace as elected officials are. Having served as supreme commander of the Allied forces in Europe during World War II, the Texan knew the perils of conflict and wanted the world to advance constructive ideas instead of destructive armies. He enjoyed most of his final years in Gettysburg, maintaining a home and a farm now dubbed the Eisenhower National Historic Site. Taylor and her cronies spent the latter half of their third day exploring the two. Examinations of Gettysburg National Military Park comprised the other
portion, as she canvassed the battlefield where, between July 1 to 3, 1863, more than 165,000 troops engaged in the Battle of Gettysburg, a turning point in the American Civil War. “I had been to most of the sites in Washington, but Gettysburg was new and exciting,” Taylor said, adding that she was able to do additional sightseeing in the Adams County borough. Her appreciation for the past’s influence on the future deepened on the fourth and fifth days. “The fourth day was really long,” she said with a smile. Stops at Arlington National Cemetery, the Eternal Flame, the Tomb of the Unknowns,
the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, the Lincoln Memorial, the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, the National Museum of America History, the Korean War Veterans Memorial and the World War II Memorial certainly schooled and exhausted the students, who capped the day with another scrumptious dinner and a leadership meeting. “I enjoyed the team-building exercises and discussions we had because they let us know we could all contribute and all have a voice,” Taylor, who cites her mom, President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama as her favorite leaders, said. Her final day offered a chance to gain insights from Mrs. Obama’s predecessor, Laura Bush, a figure well-versed in serving as a leader from her former role as a teacher. “She told us not to back down even when we think being a leader is difficult,” Taylor said. The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq link the Bush and Obama presidencies, so Taylor and the others composed letters to the conflicts’ soldiers as their community service project. The day also featured stays at the International Spy Museum, the Marine Corps War Memorial, the Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial and the Jefferson Memorial. A rollicking dinner-and-dance cruise on the Potomac River served as the participants’ final excursion. Taylor ventured home Saturday with gratitude in her heart and a certificate of completion in her hand. The latter may land her extra credit or serve as documentation to meet Pennsylvania’s and the School District of Philadelphia’s Certificate of Academic Achievement requirements in reading, writing, social studies and/or service learning. “Taylor is a lovely young woman and a talented student who has shown great leadership abilities,” Cindy Farlino, Meredith’s principal, said of the youngster who will start the seventh grade in September. “I am overjoyed with my baby and the progress she has made,” Aisha Belton added. Taylor hopes to use the summer to intensify her civic engagement, with helping stray animals as her goal. She desires to attend New York City’s prestigious Juliard School to become a top choreographer. Whatever life provides, she is eager to use her leadership philosophies to give herself constant perspective. “The most difficult part about being a leader is that you have to think before you act at all times because a lot of things can get you in trouble,” she said. “The easiest part is staying responsible and being accountable to yourself and others.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

10 SOUTH PHILLY REVIEW I June 30, 2011
News
MILICIA continued from page 1 diate connection to South Philadelphia. What he termed “a tiring year” because of budget dilemmas made GAMP’s spring break a contemplative period. “I had planned to stay a couple more years, which at a school like GAMP is very doable,” Milicia, whose 40 years in education include time at James Alcorn Elementary, 1500 S. 32nd St.; Andrew Jackson Elementary, 1213 S. 12th St.; and Stephen Girard School, 1800 Snyder Ave., said of his march toward 65. Monetary matters made the resident of Chews Landing, N.J., reconsider. Many school systems are desperate for funds, with the School District of Philadelphia staring at a $629-million deficit. Though state lawmakers are hoping to make modifications, Gov. Tom Corbett’s proposed budget would strip basic education of more than $1 billion. With standard curricula imperiled, Milicia knew arts programs would suffer. He calculated GAMP would need $175,000 for textbooks, supplies, instrumental and academic programs and extracurricular activities, but his figures were off by $85,000. “I wondered what I would tell people,” he said of having to inform thousands of the school’s impending identity shift. Milicia had often obtained substantial funding to provide his magnet school’s 500 middle- and high-school students with ample ways to thrive. A realist, he knew fate would not be so charitable this time. The district offers an early retirement option with 18 months of health care to the highest-paid principals and teachers. Milicia approached Carr and asked his colleague if he felt he could assume the principalship. “I knew what his answer would be,” he said of Carr, the music program’s overseer. Their plan called for Carr to operate the school alone, a move they learned could save two jobs and a significant part of Carr’s offerings. The loss of planned advanced placement courses constitutes the only academic casualty. Music-based setbacks include one teacher’s position and a chunk of the theater arts program. The deficit will not jeopardize GAMP’s musical productions, in which Milicia made yearly cameos. “I don’t like those people who retire and don’t go away, and I don’t want to become one of them,” he said. “I do, however, want to remain present and do not want the school to experience a deficit in any way. If Dr. Carr needs to call on me for help, I will be right here.”
Dr. Angelo Milicia crafted a lofty legacy at GAMP. S ta f f P h o t o b y G r e g B e z a n i s
EFFECTIVE TOMORROW, MILICIA will hand off the academically and musically proficient school to Carr. Under the federal government’s No Child Left Behind law, 97 percent of the high school students and 100 percent of the middle-schoolers make adequate yearly progress. Their counterpart is likewise strong, as GAMP’s singers have delighted thousands at school productions and concerts through invitations to renowned sites and participation in the Philadelphia All-City Choir. The employees, who will acquire more leadership roles next year, and their charges had chances to show their talents June 14, when Mayor Michael Nutter made their auditorium a stop on his five-school tour of budget-affected sites. Cuts to the district’s 2012 fiscal year plan include $7.7 million in art and music funding. In a brief meeting, Milicia told Nutter of the students’ acquisition of resolve and peace through music and of his school’s need for copious currency. “Mayor Nutter’s a great advocate for the arts, so he knew exactly what GAMP means to the children,” Milicia said. Nine days after the visit, City Council approved a bill that Nutter signed Friday to bring the district a projected $52.5 million sum through a one-year property tax increase and permanent boosts in select areas’ parking rates. The money’s use is thus far undecided, but Milicia feels funds will go toward reducing class sizes and upholding transportation services and not
toward adding rhythm to art programs’ existence. News of the cuts, however, has not hurt enrollment figures. “Applications are up, in fact,” he said, noting 1,000 submissions for what will be a few spots. The new learners and their contemporaries will make their way through the halls without his towering frame to look up to and gentle voice to listen to, but Milicia believes all will be well. “Dr. Carr and I have always operated as co-administrators,” he said of GAMP’s setup. “We share a vision for populating GAMP with outstanding teachers, eager students and a wonderful support staff.” Though he is confident about the school’s next steps, he remains unsure of his own. “My daughter [and support staff member] Victoria asked me what I’m going to do with myself since she feels I have no hobbies. I told her I’m going to be on my couch all day,” he said with a laugh. “When I came to GAMP to audition, Dr. Milicia had huge tears in his eyes after I finished my song and asked if he could give me a hug. I knew this was the right school for me,” Kara Mulder, a Fairmount resident and recent graduate said of the gentle giant. “Dr. Milicia is instrumental in creating the feeling that GAMP is a family.” Mulder joined the GAMP community June 7 for a surprise auditorium gathering to honor him. “They had a huge banner with my picture that read ‘Dr. Angelo F. Milicia Day,’ speeches and a video,” he said. “The day was lovely and moving.” The Home and School Committee surprised him a few days later with a dinner attended by nearly 30 family members. Both celebrations further led him to give credence to his mother’s belief that treating people with respect will bring one respect. “I am most proud of the progress GAMP has made in becoming one of the finest institutions in Philadelphia,” he said. Memorable moments occurred each day, as the fusing of accomplished teachers and bright students made him feel fortunate. His cameos gave him joy, too, and he will continue them. “Even though I have no talent,” he said with a smile. With thoughts of moving back to Philadelphia, Milicia will likely continue to offer his say on molding local students. He sees being a voice as synonymous with being alive. “There is no end to improving education,” he said. SPR Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

Fighting off summer hunger epidemic
M
ayor Michael Nutter announced the commencement of the Greater Philadelphia Coalition Against Hunger’s free summer meals program for low-income students Tuesday. Due to the 91,000 Philadelphia children who ate these summer meals last year, the program has proved itself mandatory for the physical and nutritional well-being of many children. “Children should never have to worry about where their next meal is coming from,” Carey Morgan, the coalition’s executive director, said in a statement. The program will exist at more than 1,000 sites in the city — about 50 of which are located in South Philadelphia including recreation centers, playgrounds, churches, schools and playstreets, which are one-way streets blocked off from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. during the summer to support a safe haven for playing.

A stylish South of South resident makes it her mission to let the world know that Philadelphia has flair. By Jess Fuerst Review Contributor
“E
ight-five percent of my wardrobe is local,” Rakia Reynolds, of 19th and Kimball streets, said last week, while donning a shirt from Decades Vintage, 615 Bainbridge St., and a hat from Astro Vintage, 720 S. Fifth St. The fashionista and founder of Skai Blue Media, 803 S. Fourth St., is in the business of supporting and promoting Philadelphia’s fashion presence. “When you live in a city and immerse yourself in your brand, which is your city, it’s important to shop in the farmers market. You see people talking about being so green and shopping in the masses. You can’t be green unless you really, whole-heartedly support the community,” the 32-year-old said. Reynolds extends the concept of shopping local from the food she eats, to the clothes she wears and everything in between. As Philly 360’s fashion ambassador, the stylish Reynolds spends time promoting Philadelphia’s boutiques and purporting the city’s retail image.

Lifestyles “I think people don’t know as much about [Philadelphia’s fashion] as they should,” Reynolds said. “I get calls a lot just to be a reference for things. People from InStyle, ShopSmart call me asking me what the latest trends are. “I start talking about boutiques in Philadelphia and they are like, ‘Wow, I didn’t know about that.’ These writers are for national publications or New York-based and they all have some connection to Philadelphia, but they didn’t even know what the city has to offer.” While she spends the majority of her days working public relations for clients — such as Bridget Foy’s, 200 South St., and Jim’s Steaks, 400 South St. — she makes time to help grow Philadelphia’s fashion profile. As one such endeavor, she is working with the City to promote a fall fashion event at her client’s Second-andSouth-Street spot. “We have 15 different clients and one of our biggest is South Street Headhouse District. I am planning some fashion events with them on behalf of the Philadelphia Collection,” Reynolds said, adding that the collection is an initiative by the Office of the City Representative to highlight Philadelphia as a retail hot spot on the national stage.
“People have really cool events, trunk shows and really cool one-off events that you probably wouldn’t normally have at one time,” she said of the event running Sept. 14 to 24. “It’s the city’s fashion showcase to put us more on the map when it comes to fashion.”
looking her best and while other children got dolls or toys, Reynolds stocked up on sewing machines and needles. “My mother always says I was like such a creative individual. If they wouldn’t buy me the things I wanted to wear, I ended up making them,” she said. “At 17, I made my first outfit, a knit top and skirt.” Things picked up for Reynolds when she made the move to North Broad Street to attend Temple University and though she was in her late Reynolds teens, she said, “I’ve been here forever. I got married here. I had my kids here. My life started in Philadelphia.” After graduating, Reynolds worked for many years in television, producing programs for TLC and Discovery Health. While working on a miniseries, “What Goes On,” the trend-savvy entrepreneur got her first professional taste of styling. “The wardrobe and styling was going
‘I think people don’t know as much about [Philadelphia’s fashion] as they should’
A NEW JERSEY native, Reynolds moved to Philadelphia in 1996 to study international business and marketing, but her fashion sense had been molded years earlier on the funky blocks — Rakia of South Street. “I have always been connected to Philadelphia. We’d come here for class trips. I got to experience everything the city has to offer at such a young age,” Reynolds said. “I bought my first pair of T.U.K creepers — those big-soled shoes — bought them from a store on South Street and my first pair of Dr. Martens on South in high school.” A young Reynolds was always into
to be really important and they put me in charge of the wardrobe. It was this really big thing,” the mother of three said. “I worked in TV before I got into public relations, but I was working in every aspect of fashion when I was in TV. I’d be the one with the wardrobe stylist saying ‘yea’ or ‘nay’ to what they should be wearing.” Reynolds went on to cofound a shortlived public relations firm on 13th and Dickinson streets that only represented artists, but eventually set up Skai Blue — named after her now-8-year-old daughter — in 2007. And while she works from her Fabric Row office to raise awareness for her client list, she boasts about her favorite city to all who are listening. “The influx of creative talent coming out of the colleges and universities in the past decade is really amazing. There is a constant influx of the kinds of businesses,” Reynolds said. “Across the world, people know what Philadelphia has to offer. As a retail market, people don’t know. If people came more as a destination for shopping, Philadelphia would get more of the bragging rights it deserves.” SPR Comment at news/lifestyles.

t was in her 81st year when Eleanor realized she could no longer live alone. Pete had passed away more than 15 years ago. A lifetime of surgeries had finally exacted a terrible price; she had become incontinent. It is bad enough to lose your health. It is even worse to lose your dignity. As she lay on her bed in a rehabilitation center, she came to a difficult decision. She did not want to become a burden on her family. Wearing a diaper was insulting enough, but needing your family to change you was, in her mind, the ultimate humiliation. She asked her son and daughter-inlaw to find a good nursing home for her. Eleanor was lonely living alone, but she liked being her own person. She valued her independence. Now that too was being taken from her. The nursing home was in the heart of the city. Its lobby made Eleanor feel as if she were staying at a fancy hotel. It housed more affluent seniors on the upper floors with a nice dining room, beauty parlor and physical fitness facility. When those seniors needed some assistance, they moved onto a lower floor that housed assisted living. When the need for care became more acute, they moved into the nursing facility where Eleanor was going to live. She cracked that the only move after that was out the door in a pine box. After her admittance examination, the doctor leaned over to her son and daughter-in-law and told them to visit often as the nurses need to see their presence to help them know Eleanor has not been forgotten. It is not intentional, the doctor said, but the residents with caring family tend to get more attention. Later they found out the doctor’s own father was a resident there. Eleanor was bipolar. She experienced regular cycles of mania and depression. Her husband, like so many his age, had never believed in mental illnes, but that his wife fell into a depression because of external circumstances such as the serious illness of a family member. In order to help his wife, he kept bad news from her. He also threw her pills down the drain in a moment of frustration. In the nursing home, Eleanor was kept on a strict medication regimen. She began improving. The cycles of depression flattened out as did her periods of manic activity. Amidst the gloomy surroundings
of the facility’s fourth floor, his mother slowly returned to the person he thought had been lost forever. Eleanor became quite popular with the nursing attendants. She came to know most of them well enough to discuss details of their personal lives. She became like a mother to the young nurses with families. She participated in the various activities and loved when a musical performer would visit and entertain them. Eleanor retained her interests outside the nursing facility. Her family took her in a wheelchair to a restaurant or the nearby square. Her roommate was a colorful lady also from a South Philadelphia neighborhood. The roommate suffered from Alzheimer’s disease, but it was not yet debilitating, and she and Eleanor became great companions. Occasionally, Eleanor would get frustrated with her roomie because she asked the same questions over and over. She suffered from some irrational fears, and turned to Eleanor for guidance. Eleanor could be alternately helpful or cutting and abrupt with her remarks. If she didn’t feel like being bothered, Eleanor would threaten to request another room if her roommate didn’t stop pestering her. It was the ultimate weapon Eleanor unkindly held over her roomie’s head — the threat to abandon her. Therefore, her roommate worried every time Eleanor became ill and occasionally had to make a short trip to the hospital. She feared Eleanor would never return. As she entered her fourth year in the facility, Eleanor’s health began to fail noticeably. She could no longer be taken to nearby restaurants or the square. She lost her interest in food. At one point, her family registered a complaint with corporate to halt the steady diet of chicken they kept serving her. The poultry dinners were halted, only to resume again. In order to stimulate her appetite, one kind attendant took to making her root beer floats. It worked for awhile, but soon she stayed in her bed all day. No longer did she go to see her favorite visiting performer. Her excited chatter no longer echoed down the halls or greeted the attendants who came into her room. One evening, they came for Eleanor to take her for the final time to the hospital. Her roommate grew upset. Eleanor was leaving her again. Would she return? Somehow, even in the mist that cloaked her roommate’s consciousness, she knew the answer. The one positive of Alzheimer’s disease, as it inexorably advances, is you only miss a person so long before they are lost in your memory forever. Her son called her roommate one day about a month later. The woman didn’t remember him and never mentioned Eleanor. SPR Comment at www.southphillyreview.com/opinion/cardella.
A foreign invasion
After searching for evidence of bear killings, students Thomas (Glenn Erland Tosterud), from left, Kalle (Tomas Alf Larsen) and Johanna (Johanna Mørck) join hunter, Hans (Otto Jespersen), who secretly tracks down trolls.
By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer
I
f nothing else, “Trollhunter” feels about a decade too late, like a hypeexploiting “Blair Witch” knockoff by a clueless crew that just got around to finally seeing “Blair Witch.” “Paranormal Activity” at least had the decency to change the atmosphere. This Norwegian import, from writer/director André Øvredal, has the college-age filmmakers, the running in the dark and the distant screams accompanied by shaky shots of evergreens. That it sorta works is mainly due to its being demurely tongue-in-cheek – an extra-dry mockumentary that plays it so straight you often think it doesn’t know how silly it is. But, surely, by casting Norwegian comic Otto Jespersen as Hans, the titular hired huntsman (think Robert Shaw’s Quint, only Nordic), Øvredal had giggles in mind, even if his bookending, this-really-happened title cards are packed with deadly-serious data. Gruff and elusive, Hans works for a government-run unit that keeps Norway’s troll population in line, meaning lots of heavily-armored off-roading and the blasting of UV lights, which turn the dinosaur-sized beasties to stone. Duped, like the rest of the public, into thinking Hans is a bear poacher, three film students stalk him until he agrees to let them record, exposing them to, among other things, a whole horrorhouse of lowrent CG effects. While fun to an extent, and shot amidst an eye-popping landscape, “Trollhunter” has a way of lazily ignoring plot logic, such as why a paranoid bureaucrat would witness the filming, but only threaten the
students instead of confiscate their equipment. And since the movie wants to be as jumpy-scary as it is unassumingly funny, there’s an inherent problem with the trolls themselves, which may be frightening in Norway, but through these U.S. eyes, look like Dopey and Doc stretched to skyscraper heights (best of luck to the American remake, already in the works). Øvredal deserves props for ably delivering some monster-movie thrills on a budget (watch for an “Empire Strikes Back” through-the-legs sequence), but the rest of his task proves too hairy for him to handle.
Trollhunter NR Two reels out of four Opens tomorrow at Ritz at the Bourse
Recommended Rental Hobo with a Shotgun NR Available Tuesday A high-concept violence fest in the warped, grindhouse spirit of “Machete,” “Hobo with a Shotgun” sees Rutger Hauer bring vigilante justice to a crime-ridden town, all while wielding a nasty sawedoff. It may be too early to dub the film a cult classic, but it’s tailor-made for the title.

three big and fluffy pancakes ($7) topped with real maple syrup although Edward downed them with ease. Two plump grilled sausages ($2.50) were redolent with sage. I should have asked our server which brand was used. A big side of fresh fruit — blueberries, strawberries and melon came with the pancakes. Proprietors Chris Fetfatzes and Heather Annechiarico have assembled a perfect place — a haven for the hungry who appreciate tasty, fresh fare and a marvelous staff.

fresh medley of diced tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, creamy feta, artichoke hearts, roasted red peppers and white bean salad tossed in a light vinaigrette. “I can’t eat all of this,” Gloria said repeatedly as she tried to make a dent in her lunch. “I’ll take it home for Cliff.” My turkey BLT ($10) was outstanding. There is nothing better than perfectly roasted turkey breast thinly sliced and piled high on multigrain bread with a house-smoked slab of bacon, Brie, romaine and sliced plum tomatoes. I loved the herb mayonnaise so much I tossed the calories to the wind and asked for more. Homemade potato chips, which you can buy for a buck a bag, and a dill pickle spear came with lunch. I loved Hawthornes so much, Edward and I went for Sunday brunch. As people brunched outside, Edward looked for a parking spot and I gave a made-up name to the hospitable host who offered me a mug of coffee while we waited. It gave me the chance to study the beers Hawthornes stocks. A true French omelet ($8) was golden and creamy inside. I chose asparagus, cheddar and diced ham as my three fillings. The chicken, who gave up her eggs for this masterpiece, must be strutting with pride. I loved the small diced potatoes — nice, brown and redolent of fresh rosemary — and tiny diced tomatoes. A side of bacon ($2.50) topped off brunch. Two women could have shared the

uring the long winter months of Edward’s convalescence after serious ankle surgery, I relied upon the kindness of our neighbors, Cliff and Gloria. Last week, I called Gloria who was off to the Italian Market. I asked if she wanted some company. She picked me up and off we went. I found Jersey blueberries for $2 a pint and four big and juicy lemons for $1. It was high noon, and my stomach clock went off. “Let’s have lunch,” I said. We drove up Ninth Street and around Bella Vista when I spotted the green awnings over Hawthornes at the corner of 11th and Fitzwater. The cool air from the ceiling fans was most welcoming on a hot sunny day. We sat down, sipped Schuylkill punch from Mason jars and looked over the inviting menu. I don’t know why, but Hawthornes reminds me of a restaurant on Martha’s Vineyard. It has high ceilings, hardwood floors, area rugs and a winning staff that takes care of your every need with courtesy and a smile. The array of beers from America and around the world is dazzling. You may help yourself from the large cool cases and Hawthornes also offers beers on tap. The iced tea ($2.50) was obviously homemade and hit the spot. I like strong unsweetened tea with lemon. The Mediterranean salad with chicken ($13) was a Mount Etna of goodness on a plate. It contained mixed greens and a

Hot dogs and hamburgers are probably the top foods Americans will toss on the grill. This year, let’s turn our attention to the array of burgers we can dive into along with a variety of side dishes. Any animal protein can be ground into burgers. I’ve savored tuna burgers, lamb burgers, all-beef burgers made with ground chuck and a beef and pork combo. Crab cakes and salmon patties are delicious served on a bun with tartar sauce or homemade aioli. I don’t care for turkey burgers because the meat is too dry. If it’s made from a mix of ground breast meat and thigh meat, the burger just may be a bit more moist. Most supermarkets and butcher shops carry ground lamb and pork. To make tuna burgers, chop the fish using a food processor or pull out the large reliable chef knife and do it by hand. Either way, they’re a delicious answer to those eschewing beef, lamb and pork. My friend, chef Christopher Thames, gave me his recipe for crab cakes. He uses panko bread crumbs instead of regular ones. Panko bread crumbs are Asian-style and can be found in most supermarkets.

America is turning 235 Monday, and barbecues are a great way to celebrate. Here’s a chance to really impress guests with a gourmet twist on a classic. nean and Middle Eastern. Greek meatballs, are made with lamb. Ground lamb shaped into small logs and grilled are sometimes part of a Middle Eastern mezze platter. Celebrate America’s birthday with these burgers. The recipes are from “Ten: All The Foods We Love..and 10 Recipes for Each” by Sheila Lukins.
■ Greek-Style ■ Lamb Cheeseburgers Ingredients:
1 pound of ground lamb 1 tablespoon of onion, grated 1 large clove of garlic, very finely minced 2 teaspoons of dried oregano Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste 1/3 cup of fresh mint leaves, chopped 3 ounces of Greek cheese such as feta or manouri, cut into 4 chunks 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil Ripe tomato, sliced for serving Onion, sliced for serving 1/2 cup of Kalamata olives, for serving 4 hamburger buns
Directions: Place the first six ingredients in a bowl. Mix together lightly with your hands. Form the meat mixture into four thick
patties, each about 3 inches in diameter and 1.5 inches thick. Remove some of the meat from the top center of each patty, insert a chunk of the cheese and recover with the meat. Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium. Add the burgers, two at a time, and cook for five minutes on the first side. Turn them over and cook for three minutes for medium-rare. Serve the burgers on toasted buns and pass the tomatoes, onion and olives. Serves four.
■ Curried Turkey Burgers ■ Ingredients: 2 tablespoons of olive oil 1/2 cup of red onion, diced 2 teaspoons of curry powder 1 pound of ground turkey or chicken 1 small egg, lightly beaten 1/2 cup of fresh bread crumbs 1/4 cup of Granny Smith apple, grated and peeled 1/4 cup of chopped store-bought mango chutney 2 scallions, thinly sliced on the diagonal Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste Mayonnaise, for topping
3 hamburger buns, toasted Carrot salad (recipe follows)
Directions: Heat the oil in a non-stick skillet and add the onions. Sauté over medium-low for about 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and add the curry powder. Cook, stirring, for one minute. Transfer the onions to a bowl and bring to room temperature. Light the barbecue. Add the next eight ingredients to the onions. Combine lightly. Form the mixture into four patties, each about 3 inches in diameter and 1 inch thick. Add the burgers and grill them for about five minutes per side. Spread the mayonnaise over the cut side of the buns. Place the burgers on the bottom halves, spoon 2 tablespoons of carrot salad over each one and cover with the burger tops. Serves four.

3 tablespoons of olive oil 1-1/2 teaspoons of fresh lemon juice 1 teaspoon of Dijon 1/2 teaspoon of sugar Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste 6 carrots, peeled and grated 1 tablespoon of fresh chives

A twin-twin situation Draft night landed siblings who starred for a West Passyunk school spots on their desired teams. By Joseph Myers R e v i e w s ta f f w r i t e r
M
Marcus Morris, left, and twin Markieff will look to continue their winning ways with teams that will welcome their height, skill and tenacity. file photo
THEIR MOTHER ANGEL Morris had to wait just over seven minutes for her younger
child to become a member of the Houston Rockets. While many experts believe the sun has set on Phoenix, they see Houston, often considered an also-ran in their own state because of the NBA Champion Dallas Mavericks and the four-time winner San Antonio Spurs, as a promising bunch. Adding Marcus, a Second-Team All-American and the Big 12 Player of the Year, should make make those sages salivate. The 6-foot-8 star also declared April 7. Once Stern announced his name, he became the second half of the third set of twins to go in the first round. “I wanted to be a Houston Rocket,” he said in another interview. “From the first time I worked out, I got a great vibe from those guys, and they told me how much they wanted me.” The team’s bosses also crave extended campaigns. Owners of two crowns, the Rockets registered a 43-39 mark, falling three games short of a playoff berth. Marcus figures to fire accurate shots and snare plentiful rebounds for the up-tempo team. He compiled junior-year averages of

achievements, he had to deal with as many attackers as he did backers. “A lot of guys don’t say I have an upside, but we’re going to see,” he said at a press conference. “I’m ready to put the work in and be the best possible.” Prognosticators had felt Marcus would end up wearing a hat first, but even though Phoenix ruined their predictions, he soon had his chance to tower over the diminutive Stern. “Once I was called, I still had a little pressure on me waiting for my brother to be called,” Markieff said. Marcus had a microphone thrust before him just after his brother’s departure from the arena’s greenroom. Tears gave way to levity when a reporter asked how he would deal with not suiting up with Markieff. “It ain’t the end of the world,” Marcus said during the television interview. “I’ll see him again. I mean, I’ll send him flowers or some fruit. It’ll be good.”

arkieff and Marcus Morris do not dabble in delusions. Teammates at Prep Charter High School, 1928 Point Breeze Ave., and the University of Kansas, the twin forwards knew although their love would keep them emotionally inseparable, their professional lives would halt their being geographically so. The ballers began their new existence June 23, becoming the 13th and 14th picks, respectively, in the NBA Draft. The Prudential Center in Newark, N.J., served as the site of their severing. The 14 non-playoff squads led off the evening by making their lottery selections. Mock drafts tabbed similar players with the first few choices, but disparities marked the latter ones. The brothers, clad in impressive suits, left donning caps of teams that hope their talents will lead to returns to prominence. Perennial playoff participants, the Phoenix Suns slumped to a 40-42 record and missed the playoffs by six games. Eager to restore their reputation as a contender, they nabbed Markieff, a 6-foot-9 force, who will provide offensive flexibility and help to minimize their chief liability, shaky defense. Older by seven minutes, he decided April 7 to forgo his senior season. Doing so initiated debates on how soon into draft night he would extend his right hand to commissioner David Stern. As the honorable mention All-American ascended the stage, his sibling let out tears. Droplets nearly reached his own eyes, as he confessed after descending the area. “When I heard the Suns picking me, man, I wanted to cry,” Markieff said during Thursday’s ESPN telecast. “That’s just the place I’ve always wanted to be, and it just felt so good.” The offensive-minded unit’s only pick, he will look for lobs from point guard Steve Nash, a two-time league MVP, and will seek to continue his progression as a defensive stalwart. This past season, he led the Big 12 Conference with a 58.9 field goal percentage and an 8.3 rebounds-pergame average. He dropped 13.6 points per game and proved his perimeter prowess by drilling 38 three-pointers. Despite his
17.2 points and 7.6 rebounds per game. He amassed 10 double-doubles and won three Player of the Week honors. He became the 18th Jayhawk selected in the first round in the last 21 years. “I just told my brother these were the two places that we both wanted to end up at, if it wasn’t together,” Marcus said at a press conference. The two arrived at Kansas months after the school claimed the 2008 NCAA Title. They helped the national power to win three Big 12 regular-season titles and two conference tournament championships. A favorite to win this year’s title, Kansas fell in the Elite Eight but went 35-3. Often triumphing continued their experience with winning. The North Philadelphia natives led Prep Charter to two state championships during their South Philadelphia days. Though they could not land the Jayhawks more titles, they view their decision to leave and to test their skills at the next level as a regret-free one. “It’s just amazing how things play out,” Marcus said at the same conference. “I’m jjust thanking God. He really has a plan for us. It just played out the exact way we wanted it to. It’s just so amazing.” While the twins enjoyed draft night, Syracuse University’s Rick Jackson, a product of Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., had to deal with disappointment. Seen as a second-round pick, the 6-foot-9 forward, who averaged a double-double in his senior year against tough Big East competition, went undrafted but will look to impress at free agent camps. The Sixers selected Nikola Vucevic, a power forward from the University of Southern California, and Lavoy Allen, a power forward from Temple University. They will vie for minutes on a team that impressed many last season by claiming 41 victories and a spot in the playoffs, where they lost a five-game first-round series against the Miami Heat. The twins hope to make their teams postseason invitees. Being on different rosters will be novel, but they are eager to excel. “It’s a new chapter in our life. We’re ready to move on,” Markieff said during his draft interview. “It’s definitely going to be weird,” Marcus said in his interview of the split, “but we’re growing up. He’s my best friend, and I want him to do well.” SPR

LEGAL NOTICE
NOTICE Pursuant to the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act, the act of May 19, 1995, P.L. 4 (“Act 2”) notice is hereby given that Westrum Park Place, L.P. has submitted to the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (“DEP”) Notices of Intent to Remediate (“NIRs”) for the following parcels comprising the Villas and Regency at Packer Park in the City of Philadelphia: (1) 3310-3320 South 20th Street; (2) 3200 South 20th Street; and (3) Capri Drive, Buildings 4, 5 and 6. These notices amend prior NIRs to designate a portion of the subject site as a separate Act 2 site. The NIRs state that former uses of the parcels included a truck depot, repair facility, residence, offices, and petroleum dispensing station. Soil and groundwater at the parcels were found to be impacted by petroleum compounds, metals, polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, and other organic compounds. Remediation measures to attain statewide health and site specific standards included characterization of site conditions, preparation of a risk assessment and onsite management or offsite disposal of impacted soils. The parcels have been redeveloped for residential use. The remediation measures and standards have not changed for these parcels as described in prior NIRs published on January 26, 2004 (3200 S. 20th St.) and October 13, 2004 (3310-3320 S. 20th St.). Publication of the prior NIRs initiated 30-day public and municipal comment periods, during which no requests for public involvement were received. Additional information on these sites may be obtained from DEP, Southeast Regional Office, 2 East Main Street, Norristown, PA 19401.
