asked with putting out blazes from 1894 to 1957, the former Engine 46 Firehouse, 1401 S. Water St., has served as a site for gurative ames this year, with community members fuming over its possible demolition. Through a July 31 meeting with a trio of its New York-based overseers from Cedar-Riverview LP, two prominent local figures learned their preservation efforts could retard calls for the location’s destruction. “I want for the space to remain an active, viable part of the community,” James Moylan said Monday outside the imperiled Pennsport site. “We all understand the owners want something to

complement their other buildings in this area, and we want to be able to support and promote it if it’s appropriate for our community.” The resident of Front and Federal streets and fourth-year president of the Pennsport Civic Association, 1837 S. Second St., expressed the same sentiments last week upon convening with Cedar personnel, including president Bruce Schanzer, at 1st District Councilman Mark Squilla’s Center City office. The businessmen ventured to Philadelphia to acknowledge pleas for explanations of their plans and gathered accounts of the unoccupied space’s significance. “They came begrudgingly,” Moylan said of the visSee ENGINE 46 page 10

Hard to cope with To the Editor: I swear by the Almighty God that I will never ever have another dog in my life. The pain and suffering they endure toward their waning years have become just too hard for me. I suffer to watch them gradually lose control of their hind legs, fall because of a lack of balance and struggle to stand. It tears my heart from me knowing that the time is getting very close where the humane-but-heart-crushing time is fast approaching to put my loved one out of his pain and suffering. I know there is the long suffering period that I must face in not seeing or having him around anymore. As I am writing this, I am feeling emotionally overwhelmed and crying, reaching to touch his beautiful face for one of the last times. I really see the sadness, like he knows

I must soon put him to sleep. Unless you are a person who knows or has had dogs in your life, you cannot imagine what I am now living through. Yes, I am very much a man, but when it comes to some things, I am very much a weak, shameless sissy. It was a little less than two years ago that I had to put his father to sleep with the same condition, and I was just recently able to cope with that loss. Now, I am about to be slammed again. Who is going to be there for me when I come home from shopping and hear his barking as I approach the front door? No more having him jump up and down, his tail wagging like a windshield and running circles around me. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strange that being alone never used to bother me, but now all that mattered in my life is not here

anymore. I am stuck with an unbearable and unrelenting void that only my treasured dog has filled for the past 14 years. Oh, what am I to do without him? I am so sad and helplessly lost at knowing what is coming and what I have to do to my little squirt that will haunt me until my blessed end. Writing this has been unimaginably difficult for me and those who know, know why. Frank Cavallaro South Philadelphia Comment on these letters or topics at southphillyreview.com/opinion/letters.

THE ART OF THE MATTER: According to a neighborhood resident, a telephone pole art at Second and Moore streets features an homage to iconic symbols and individuals by Cal Schenkel, who designed album covers for the late rocker Frank Zappa. If the addition is the work of the Willow Grove native, it would reďŹ&#x201A;ect his penchant for creating multifaceted pieces. SPR

GOT ANGER? GET HELP! Do you find yourself in frequent arguments? Have you ever pushed or hit someone in anger? Do you throw or break things when you get frustrated?

If you are between the ages of 18–55 and have problems with anger and aggression, then you may qualify for a research study being conducted now by Michael McCloskey, Ph.D. at Temple University. The goal of this study is to examine the effectiveness of two forms of psychotherapy (“talk therapy”) for individuals with anger and aggression problems. Qualified participants will be randomly assigned to 12, 1-hour sessions of either cognitive-behavioral therapy or supportive therapy. The form of therapy you are given will be randomly determined (i.e. flipping a coin). Therapy is provided at no cost. Participation in this study will require 18 visits over approximately 4 months, completing brief phone surveys several times a day, 2 follow-up phone interviews at 3 and 9 months after therapy, and 2 follow-up office visits 6 and 12 months after therapy. This study also includes two fMRI brain scans (one immediately before therapy and one the week after therapy).

Eligible individuals will be compensated for completion of all study procedures.

Not on the menu A man waiting in line for a slice of pizza at a well-known Queen Village eatery was wounded Sunday. ■ By Amanda L. Snyder Review Managing Editor

bullet went through a customer’s leg when he made an early-morning stop at a South Street pizzeria. The 31-year-old was inside Lorenzo and Sons Pizza, 305 South St., at 3:20 a.m. Sunday when he heard a shot fired, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. He ran around the corner to his car and felt pain in his right shin where a bullet entered, exiting through his calf. He was transported to Hahnemann University Hospital where he was treated and released, Tolliver said. Detectives were unable to locate a scene or any witnesses. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

$1 was not enough A woman was mugged her of her purse, containing cash and a loaded gun Saturday. The thief approached the 27-year-old woman on the 2700 block of Mifflin Street at 1:30 a.m. and asked for $1, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. After she handed over the bill, he responded, “Thank you” before taking her purse and fleeing westbound on Mifflin Street. Her bag contained $100 and a loaded firearm. The mugger was described as black with a dark complexion, age 35 to 40, 5-foot-9 to 5-foot-10, 160 pounds and wearing a dark-colored hoodie and sweat pants. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Kissed by a thief A robber kissed a woman twice in Passyunk Square before mugging her last week. The 37-year-old was walking alongside her bicycle on the 1300 block of South Sixth Street at 2 a.m. Aug. 1 when an unknown man grabbed her from behind and kissed her on the mouth, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. When she tried to push him away, he grabbed her head and kissed her again. Although she attempted to get away, the man was able to push her down, pull her iPhone from her pocket and flee westbound on Reed Street. The woman received a minor elbow scrape but did not seek medical attention. The offender was described as Latino, in his mid-20s, 5-foot-4 and having a me-

dium build, no facial hair and black, curly hair falling past his ears. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Morning intruders Two armed men greeted a Hawthorne family inside their residence Sunday morning. The pair entered a home on the 1200 block of Webster Street in an unknown manner at 10:04 a.m. and aimed black handguns at and demanded cash from a 50-year-old man and woman and a 26-year-old woman, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The man handed over $300, and the invaders fled in an unknown direction. The suspects were described as black with dark complexions and age 24 to 25. One was 6-foot-5, thin and wearing a blue T-shirt and dark blue jeans while the other was 5-foot-5, 250 pounds, having facial hair and wearing cargo pants. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Call it a crime A group of teens surrounded two of their peers, taking one of their iPhones before fleeing Saturday afternoon. At 4:30 p.m., an 11-year-old boy and his 13-year-old male friend left Foot Locker, 2308 Oregon Ave., but when they headed westbound on the 2000 block of Oregon Avenue, a group of nine teenagers circled the pair, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. A 15-year-old boy asked what kind phone the younger one had and tried to retrieve it from his pocket, Tolliver said. The boy blocked him with his hand, which the thief pushed aside, taking his iPhone 4 with a gray case and fleeing on his bike westbound on Oregon. The remaining children made sure he didn’t follow and headed eastbound on Oregon. The 15-year-old was described as black with a dark complexion; having short hair and a tattoo of the letter “A” on his right elbow and a “T” on his left elbow; and wearing a white shirt with gray lettering on it, red shorts, red socks and yellow and green Kevin Durant sneakers To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Neighbors’ labors A Dickinson Square West recreation spot hosted a rally to encourage the suppression of crime. ■ By Joseph Myers R e v i e w S ta f f W r i t e r

“I

t’s great to have all of these ofcials talking about how much support they want to give us, but the way I see it, parents and neighbors are the true security,” Sylvia Harkless said Monday at Sacks Playground, 400 Washington Ave. The resident of the 1900 block of Federal Street took her granddaughters, Monique, 8, and Chandra, 5, to the Dickinson Square West recreation site for the National Night Out Kickoff Rally, a precursor to Tuesday evening’s event through which more than 37 million citizens united to promote the eradication of crime. For Harkless, the occasion included gladness and sadness, as it allowed the girls to pick up safety tips and engage in levity with their peers yet marked the third anniversary of her brother’s shooting death in Atlanta. “People like to use the term ‘senseless violence,’ but when does it ever make sense?” the Point Breeze dweller said of Marcus Gibbons’ passing. “Thugs cut him down in the prime of his life over mistaken identity. He was a grown man, and it tears me up that people way younger than he was are getting gunned down, too.” Harkless and hundreds of similar safety seekers spent three hours learning and subsequently stressing the need for involving themselves in crime prevention activities, developing partnerships with the police and engaging neighbors in spotting, reporting and speaking out against discord. A veteran of all 30 Philadelphia versions of the National Association of Town Watch’s homage to Public Safety Month, she believes criminals are becoming smarter and residents are growing more petrified. “But we can’t let them think they’re winning,” Harkless said. “I’ve lived in what I’d call a troubled area for most of my life, so I sense this is the time to get the bad guys running scared. If more people can think like me, maybe we can feel safe, some of us for the first time in ages.” As she and her relatives inspected organizations’ tables and read materials, other attendees dined on hamburgers, hot dogs and soft pretzels, with the younger crowd making use of the recreational equipment, too. Harkless engaged Michael Bell of United Communities Southeast Philadelphia, 2029

S. Eighth St., in a gun violence discussion upon learning his organization will hold an Aug. 15 meeting at Dixon House, 1920 S. 20th St. Taking from it an even deeper appreciation for leading youths to productive pastimes and scholastic enthusiasm, she proceeded to Sacks’ grass field to hear the night’s speakers and performers. Mark Berman joined the throng to gather contacts and ideas for enhancing his Pennsport community’s sense of security. “I would say our overall safety has improved,” the resident of the 300 block of Wharton Street and president of the Friends of Manton Street Park and Garden, 405-11 Manton St., said. “We have occasional incidents of vandalism, and litter is a visible issue, so we’re always looking for resources.” NATIONAL NIGHT OUT debuted Aug. 7, 1984, with 2.5 million citizens from 23 states adopting what the National Association of Town Watch has dubbed the “Lights On”

campaign. Through subsequent celebrations, the entire nation, United States territories, Canadian cities and military bases worldwide have come to preach awareness of solidarity through such measures as block parties, cookouts, exhibits, movie screenings, rallies and safety seminars. “It’s a great way to network and develop respect for our kids’ futures and our roles in them,” Gary Harkins, the community relations officer for the 3rd District, 1300 S. 11th St., said as he oversaw sack races. “They got to keep up the momentum, though, beyond tonight and tomorrow.” Mayor Michael A. Nutter shared the policeman’s philosophy as he addressed the audience. Sacks and Northeast Philly’s Target Shopping Center served as kickoff sites, so Nutter reminded his listeners that their two nights of action should have many successors in the quest for calm. “If you see something, say something,” the politician said. “Somebody knows everything

that goes on in every neighborhood, so even if something happens on your block and you think, ‘Well, that’s OK because it didn’t happen to my family,’ realize that by not saying anything, you’re opening yourself up to the possibility that it could be someone you love, or even you, the next time.” As the warm weather common during summer makes the season an obvious candidate for increased crime due to more social activities occurring, Nutter stressed increased vision among his constituents yet encouraged them not to shut their eyes the rest of the year. “I absolutely agree,” Harkless said. “The sun’s going to be setting sooner in no time, and thieves, rapists and murderers are going to do what they do. It makes me sick.” As she and the others learned how they can be their own preservers of peace, Chandra grooved to Artists Against Violence, a group of musicians with members not much older than her. “That looks like fun,” she said as one boy strummed a guitar. “My grandmom always tells me kids shouldn’t have any worries. Every day should be about having a good time.” SPR For more information, visit natw.org. Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

ENGINE 46 continued from page 1 itors, whose company did not reply to inquiries as of press time. “They own the building and can do whatever they want with it, but there was just too much secrecy for us to continue to accept.” Familiar with the corporation through many years of correspondence with officials and the use of its establishments, including the Engine 46 Steakhouse that operated within the expanse from ’96 to 2006, he became stunned upon learning in June that it desired to demolish the structure on or after July 30. He noted no discussions on its future had occurred between the parties until last week’s gathering, through which he and his political peer posited if helping to secure a tenant could cause reconsideration. “Our hope is definitely to fill the spot,” Squilla, of Front Street and Snyder Avenue, said of Cedar’s intention to raze the edifice and an adjoining building that once housed a GameWorks Studios, adding the original January demolition permit, renewed June 10, came about unbeknownst to the community following Cedar’s inability to finalize a lease with a prospective tenant. “The process has often been frustrating, but we’re hopeful.” Cedar, which told Moylan two brokerage firms have thus far failed to attract an inhabitant for the empty post, agreed to let him collect, vet and send along the names of possible lessees, an announcement that pleased Ben Leech. “Our plan is to flood Dr. Moylan with inquiries,” the Preservation Alliance of Greater Philadelphia advocacy director said, noting what a loss the Flemish-revival style construction would be for the city. Even before the present snafu, interest in protecting the firehouse had surfaced through an application to add it to the metropolis’ Register of Historic Places, a move that proved futile because of insufficient data. “We can’t deny that it’s iconic, if not historic,” Moylan said while peering at the two-story tract’s amenities, including an octagonal tower, an intricate chimney and stepped gables. “We’re trying to find someone to sustain its presence.” THOUGH THE PENNSPORT dweller is drawing a sense of civic pride through his engagement, a recent visit to the website of Cedar Realty Trust, Cedar’s parent company, slightly dashed his optimism. A demographic profile places a Checkers eatery in the firehouse’s spot, a discovery that counters his belief on what will foster Pennsport’s economic growth. “Again, I understand it’s Cedar’s turf, but there is a newfound appreciation for

Branching out

Pennsport Civic Association president James Moylan, who met with the old firehouse’s owners last week, is leading his neighborhood’s quest to see that the disputed land, if not the building, goes to good use. S ta f f p h o t o b y K at h r y n P o o l e

this area, and I just don’t see that as a good fit,” Moylan, who contends a microbrewery could make a fine replacement for the shuttered steakhouse, whose closing details Cedar would not address, said. “We made [it] clear we’re not necessarily going to accept what they put there, but we will not accept nothing being there either.” The committed leader stated the above over fears Cedar could simply elect to make a parking lot, which he holds would drive residents crazy. Community denizens have echoed his call for careful handling of the 1,053-square-foot haven through signing 10 paper petitions and an online form by Anthony Maisano. “When I heard about the matter, it seemed senseless to me to have the firehouse demolished,” the resident of the 700 block of Annin Street said. “I’m remaining optimistic that these very influential people can get someone to revive the building.” In his web-based outreach, the Passyunk Square resident lauds the haunt as “undoubtedly full of aesthetic character and charm.” Moylan reiterated that opinion by stating the building, which the City’s Office of Property Assessment has valued at $1.26 million, remains in solid condition and lacks any outstanding infrastructural violations. Hopeful for refashioning instead of demolishing, he knows it cannot remain vacant much longer because of Cedar’s need to keep its permit from expiring and his overall belief that empty locations benefit nobody. “We’ve had to deal with that matter too

much recently,” he said, acknowledging the closing of Abigail Vare, 1621 E. Moyamensing Ave., Our Lady of Mount Carmel, 2329 S. Third St., and Sacred Heart of Jesus, 1329 E. Moyamensing Ave., schools since June of last year. “We’re eager to present Cedar with a number of candidates.” The winning applicant would need to take on a five-year lease, but with the Checkers matter on their minds, Moylan and the others must contemplate that Cedar, which had vowed to suspend demolition talks in anticipation of last month’s powwow, might already have determined its course of action. “Demolition isn’t cheap so that’s something to contemplate, too,” Leech said. “We want Cedar to be a part of the neighborhood, not just an occupant in it,” Moylan added of the seven-year itch to see the matter resolved. “Any demolition work would likely mean they would need a zoning variance to put up something new, so it’s a good think they finally met with us to try to sustain a solid relationship because Pennsport residents, and this overwhelms me, have so much enthusiasm for the firehouse, which Cedar has no interest, for business reasons, in helping us to make historic. Its future is definitely a sensitive issue.” SPR For more information, contact pennsport@ aol.com or call 215-462-9764. Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

A Hawthorne resident will leave his City position to head a Colorado arts organization. ■ By Joseph Myers R e v i e w S ta f f W r i t e r

ver his nearly five-year tenure as the chief cultural officer and director of the City of Philadelphia Office of Arts, Culture and the Creative Economy, Gary Steuer has enjoyed being a cheerleader for global promotion of the metropolis’ innovative identity. Eager to duplicate or even top his area success, the resident of the 700 block of South Broad Street will make an October departure for Denver, where he will serve as the president and CEO for the Bonfils-Stanton Foundation. “Denver possesses a great arts community but has yet to receive significant national and international renown,” the 57-year-old said from his Center City office. “I’m heading there to advance its progress and see how advocates can bolster their work with philanthropic entities and other elements of the city’s organizational landscape.” The Hawthorne inhabitant learned of the employment opportunity in the spring and feeling the 51-year-old foundation’s shifting focus from arts, education and health care advocacy to only the first element would foster his interest in ingenuity, he pursued the post and won the job in June. Visiting Colorado sites two weeks ago, he reinforced his enthusiasm for the state’s

LIFESTYLES resources and looks forward to giving his East Coast accomplishments Rocky Mountain region-situated complements. “There’s a time to consider personal renown, but my role is serving the citizens,” Steuer said of how his Denver tenure might resemble his Philadelphia stint. “I’m still learning about my pending duties and the residents’ appreciation of creativity, so I’ll continue to devote my energy to promoting their enjoyment and their providers’ output.” In assisting the company, which has exceeded $46 million in charitable contributions and won Colorado’s 2007 Foundation of the Year award through National Philanthropy Day, he will interact with numerous “cutting-edge corporations” akin to Philadelphia’s roster of avant-garde outfits. Steuer has used his external affinity for the arts and internal propagation of them to craft a stellar legacy here, with the allocation of $9 million in Knight Foundation funds to launch the Knight Arts Challenge, the creation of the City Hall Art Gallery, the institution of the City’s premier Poet Laureate and Youth Poet Laureate programs and the formation of City Hall Presents, a performing arts series that takes place in its courtyard, as a few endeavors. As his stay has provided numer-

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

ous occasions to develop deep ties with practitioners and patrons, the energetic connoisseur, whose Oct. 1 resignation will mark his five-year local government anniversary, believes the arts scene will thrive as long as overseers and creators collaboratively realize their city’s destiny in exploring and promoting talent. “For many people, Philadelphia had been only Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, Rocky and cheesesteaks,” Steuer said. “I think we’ve altered those perceptions and have a city that welcomes creative input from all sources.” THOUGH HIS CURRENT turf has suffered an artistic identity crisis, Steuer hails from a location that has never had its imaginative nature questioned — New York. Born in Rhode Island, he matured in the Empire State, with his artistically reverent parents encouraging his creative integration. “I played the recorder and clarinet and came to pick up great arts exposure through class trips,” he said. “I found those spaces awe-inspiring, so coupled with my exposure to pop culture, I had my curiosity piqued early on.” Having received secondary school visual arts tutelage, he matriculated at Purchase College, State University of New York and

New York University, with a London jaunt through Temple University in between. Questioning his artistry’s scope, he began favoring the comprehension of others’ work to the development of his, a predilection that led to assisting the Museum of Modern Art with a Vincent van Gogh show. “I furthered my interest in politics, too,” Steuer said, with an internship under thenNew York state Rep. Theodore Weiss giving him enhanced knowledge of the partnership between civic personalities and cultivated individuals. “I eventually had a Toto moment like in ‘The Wizard of Oz’ where I was able to see behind the curtain and note the power of going from an arts consumer to an advocate.” Adding a graduate arts management degree from NYU, he soon ascended in his new field, serving as executive director of Broadway’s National Actors Theatre, director of the New York State Council on the Arts’ Capital Funding Initiative and managing director of New York City’s Vineyard Theatre, among many assignments. He generated kudos as the Arts and Business Inc.’s director, president and CEO of New York programs and the vice president of private sector affairs and executive director for the Arts and Business Council for Americans for the Arts, also in

the world-renowned city. “Through the council, I gathered so much information on Philadelphia, so coming here gave me a chance to explore the vibrant scope of arts lovers, which I’ve loved since I’m about expounding on culture,” Steuer said. Having come from a city that many tab as the arts capital of the world, the outgoing employee has made Philadelphia a viable contender for global attention and will spend his remaining weeks touting its possibilities and praising those who have already transformed ideas into realities. Preparing to embark for a realm where he will likewise yearn to contribute concepts and experience their coming to fruition, he appreciates that like the artists who have surrounded him, he loves what he does far beyond any potential financial rewards. “I’m always going to feel an attraction for addressing what art can give to our lives and what we can bring to it,” Steuer, who will be joined in Denver by his wife Sophie and their 2-year-old daughter, said. “I’m enthused about what’s coming and thankful for what’s come.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

f George Zimmerman went out for Skittles on the streets of Arizona, he would have been racially profiled. • Zimmerman did not racially profile Trayvon Martin because if the kid had only worn a white button-down shirt and madras plaid walking shorts, he’d be alive today. • Florida has become crazier than Texas. • Hiring enough border patrol agents to have one stationed every 50 feet will not only keep out Mexicans, but is a great way to lower the unemployment rate in this country. • Joey Vento’s lasting legacy is that every foreigner now orders a cheesesteak in English (but still requests a drink in Spanish). • Here are House Republican suggestions on how to deal with the 12 million illegal immigrants living in this country: Have each illegal tattooed with the picture of a taco in the middle of his or her forehead (rejected because one Republican member felt the rest of us might think they were employees of Taco Bell). Give tax incentives to American corporations to move all of our jobs to Mexico and then have Mitt Romney throw a selfdeportation party (rejected because Bangladesh and India complained they would be the ones to lose jobs). Make the illegal immigrants wait 13 years, pay fines, wait until all other patients are seen before getting treated by a physician (no matter what time their appointment is), and eat all of their meals in public school cafeterias until they are eligible for citizenship (House Republicans rejected as “amnesty”). • Arizona with its immigrant phobia has become crazier than either Florida or Texas. • O.J. Simpson coming out in support of Paula Deen is like pouring melted butter over cow chips and serving them for breakfast in one of her restaurants. • The only reason why Edward Snowden leaked government secrets was he had a burning desire to live “free” in Russia. • The only reason why the government collected data on our phone calls and emails was to track my wife’s next sorority meeting. • North Carolina with its nutso abortion restrictions has become crazier than Arizona, Florida or Texas. • It is purely a coincidence that Mayor Michael Nutter was away on travel when Philadelphia had a crisis. It also is a coincidence that he turned off his cell phone. • The reason why the mayor won’t allow his department heads to appear before

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

City Council’s committees to investigate a building collapse is that they also were on vacation with the mayor. • The only reason why the mayor won’t allow all of the public records related to the building collapse on Market Street to become available to the public is he thought Snowden already released them. • New York has scandal-plagued Anthony Weiner and Eliot Spitzer running for office. Their slogan is: If You Can’t Keep It in Your Pants, At Least Keep It in New York City. • The only reason why this columnist has not criticized the behavior of Justin Bieber is that at a recent concert he touched his granddaughter’s hand and stared into her eyes (and he better not get any funny ideas). • Liz Cheney, the crazy right-wing daughter of Dick Cheney, is running for Wyoming’s Senate. If elected, she has a shot at making Wyoming crazier than New York, North Carolina, Arizona, Florida or Texas. • President Barack Obama is like a dictator and is taking over every aspect of our lives (Republican argument). • Obama is weak and the country is adrift and seeking leadership (Republican argument). • The consistency of the two foregoing Republican arguments, in case you missed it, is they don’t like Obama. • The poster Frack Tom Corbett lacks subtlety, but more than makes up for it by capturing the sentiments of 76 percent of Pennsylvania voters, according to the latest polls. • If Pennsylvania reelects Corbett, it will move ahead of Wyoming, New York, North Carolina, Arizona, Florida and Texas as the craziest state in the union. • It is not true that the church hierarchy considers deviation from established orthodoxy worse than pedophilia. It just seems that way. Pope Francis gets a pass here. • An insurance company refused to insure Andrew Bynum not because of his bad knees but because he is so annoying. • Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana are miffed at me because they all believe that they are crazier than any of the other states. Wait a minute, I just got votes for Georgia and South Carolina. Georgia because it’s Georgia and South Carolina for just electing a 94-year-old man to the Senate for a six-year term. • Freedom of speech means allowing some group to spew racist hatred in front of Liberty Place so long as they don’t block my entrance into Kiehl’s. • Forget about pro basketball, NASCAR will really show us how progressive it has become by welcoming an openly gay driver (he will have to shower at home). • I just thought about it and there still is no state crazier than Rick Perry’s Texas.

After the death of her husband, Jasmine (Cate Blanchett), left, moves in with her sister Ginger (Sally Hawkins), right, in San Francisco.

Far from a crisis ■ By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

n recent years especially, Woody Allen has almost exclusively delivered ensemble dramedies, from “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” to his greatest (financial) hit, “Midnight in Paris.” But while the director’s new film, “Blue Jasmine,” may seem to follow this same path, boasting a cast that includes such diverse talents as Sally Hawkins, Peter Sarsgaard, and Louis C.K., the movie belongs to Cate Blanchett, whose whirlwind performance as the eponymous ex-trophy wife cements the movie as a deftly driven star vehicle. We catch up with Jasmine (whose real name is Jeanette) just after the death of her husband, Hal (Alec Baldwin), a Bernie Madoff type who gets busted, then offs himself in prison. Her assets liquidated, Jasmine is left broke and broken, washing down Xanax with Stoli martinis to escape the fact that she’s fallen out of the 1 percent. Living with her working-class sister, Ginger (Hawkins), in San Francisco, Jasmine takes a half-stab at doing “medial” work, but soon slips back into pursuing the only life she knows: A fully-funded fantasy. Urgently topical and deceptively multilayered, “Blue Jasmine” sees Allen make a stinging commentary on economic woes of late, and within that explore the farreaching effects of denial and entitlement, two things that, as evidenced, can make you fall to pieces. In casting Blanchett, he strikes blistering, tragicomic gold, as the actress, who hasn’t tackled this type of role in half a decade, grabs hold of the material and soars. Since Jasmine, a Manhattanite, storms into Ginger’s life and makes trouble, particularly for Ginger’s live-in boyfriend, Chili (Bobby Cannavale), the structure

has been compared to that of “A Streetcar Named Desire,” with Blanchett’s character recalling Blanche DuBois. But those classic seeds of inspiration are eventually left in Blanchett’s dust. The leading lady brings to vivid life a painfully entertaining breakdown, and the domestic triangle is merely one element on which it’s unleashed. Jasmine’s all-too-relevant and crippling lack of contentment turns a mirror on the times, and Blanchett turns Jasmine into a cautionary antiheroine of epic proportions. It’s the best role and performance of the brilliant actress’ career.

Recommended Rental Olympus Has Fallen R Available Tuesday

In all honesty, “Olympus Has Fallen” is recommended with reservations, as this brazenly jingoistic shoot-’em-up sends a lot of unhealthy messages, including painting all North Koreans as members of the next alQaida. But at least the borderline B-movie owns its views in campy fashion, making it more benign than, say, the unduly lauded and fear-promoting “Argo.” Starring Gerard Butler, “Olympus” is a breathless “Die Hard” throwback, and it certainly beats the similar “White House Down.” SPR Comment and see the trailers for this week’s movies at southphillyreview.com/arts-and-entertainment/movies.

Marlyn’s Irish Cream Liqueur

Arts and snacks

ne of the downsides to preparing a recipe is the finished product is typically gone within 24 hours. During these muggy 90-plus-degree days of August, having a chilled beverage with a kick may provide satisfaction even though it will disappear in the same fashion. While water often provides the best solution, Marlyn Werner occasionally enjoys concocting a blender full of her Irish Cream Liqueur, which also provides a perfectly sweet nightcap to an evening meal. As an added plus, the resident of the 100 block of Durfor Street said her offering is good for storing in the refrigerator for up to a month. SPR

INGREDIENTS:

ight Market returns after visiting Washington Avenue last summer. Inspired by Asian outdoor markets, the food festival, which features more than 80 of the city’s food trucks and restaurants, live music, art and more, will fill South Street between Front and Ninth streets 6 to 10 p.m. Aug. 15. Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens, 1020 South St., also will present its sixth annual summer festival ART/GAGE: Celebrate Philly Creativity that night. For more information, visit thefoodtrust.org/night-market. SPR

DIRECTIONS:

1-1/4 cups of Irish whiskey or brandy 1 cup of cream of coconut 2 tablespoons of chocolate syrup 1 14-ounce can of sweetened condensed milk 4 eggs 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract

In a blender, combine all of the ingredients until smooth. Store tightly covered in the refrigerator. Stir before serving. Serve over ice. Makes 1 quart.

REVISITED

For Pete’s Sake Pub ■ By Phyllis Stein-Novack R e s ta u r a n t R e v i e w e r

ore than eight years ago, Edward and I enjoyed a delicious dinner at For Pete’s Sake Pub. We tucked into hummus, Caesar salad, hanger steak and a rack of veal. I cannot remember whether a burger was listed on the bill of fare. You may know that I am on a quest for a perfect burger. I have been disappointed on so many occasions. Frankly, I am weary of the fancy-schmancy burgers so many restaurants serve. For Pete’s Sake Pub is exactly what a neighborhood pub should be. Located in Queen Village, it features a long mahogany bar; good lighting; flat-screen TVs to watch the Phillies win (I keep the faith); Alex, the congenial barkeep; happy hour specials; and music that ran the gamut from Otis Redding to Etta James. Edward and I took the last two seats at the bar. The place was packed with happy revelers enjoying a pint and a nosh. I ordered a pint of Allagash ($4) while Edward sipped his martini ($7.50). Both drinks were more than reasonably priced. The menu is global: You can order a flatbread pizza, pierogi, quesadillas or edamame among other selections. We began dinner with edamame ($6), which was large enough for three people. The soy beans were steamed in their pods, lightly salted and placed in a sauce of light soy and peppercorns. They were uncommonly good. The beans retained a bit of bite and I especially enjoyed the sauce because it was not over-the-top salty. Coffee/Café/Sweets Caffe Chicco: 2532 S.

Grilled asparagus ($4) was an intriguing item to see on a pub menu. Then again, so was the edamame. Although I prefer thick asparagus, the pencil-thin vegetables were bathed in olive oil and set on the grill. The smoky flavor and aroma a grill gives to any ingredient is always welcoming. We next traveled to Italy because I wanted to try the mushroom risotto ($6). I have eaten some truly poor versions of this classic Milanese dish. Arborio rice was cooked a bit more than toothsome, which is fine with me. Undercooked arborio rice is dreadful. It was bathed with stock, topped with heady woody sautéed mushrooms and finished with Parmesan. I would not call this classic risotto but it was darn good, if a bit salty. Now on to my burger. I ordered it medium-rare with cheddar cheese. The beef was perfectly seared on the outside and red-pink inside. It was juicy and filled with flavor. Sometimes ground beef lacks salt and pepper, but this burger hit the mark. The cheddar melted beautifully, glistening on top. For the first time in recent memory, the bun was not bigger than the burger. Hand cut french fries were piping hot, free of grease and lightly salted. Lettuce, tomato and red onion came with the burger. Edward wanted to sample the fish and chips ($13), a classic pub staple throughout the city. He asked Alex to recommend a beer to go with his platter. “The fish is fried in a Guinness batter, so I recommend a Guinness,” he said. Alex drew a pint from the tap when dinRestaurant Review:

ner arrived. Fresh pieces of meaty cod were dipped in the batter and flash-fried to a light golden brown. I thought the batter could have been crispier although it wasn’t heavy. I don’t care for heavy batter coatings on cod, a meaty firm-fleshed fish that held up nicely in this preparation. A pile of hot french fries and a tasty tartar sauce came with the platter. I dipped my fries into the sauce and enjoyed. I made a point of sampling dishes we did not try on our first visit to For Pete’s Sake Pub years ago. Thank goodness the burger did not disappoint. I will continue my burger quest, but this one brought a smile to my face. = Very Good

Well, technically, he is a James Beard Award-winning chef who enjoys cooking. The prestigious accolades came while serving as the culinary director for the New York City-based Momofuku Ko. The eatery is part of a group of award-winning restaurants owned by chef-founder David Chan. Serpico, who earned his culinary degree from Baltimore International College, said he was ready for a change, and the move to Philadelphia put him closer to his Maryland-based family. Meeting Philadelphia restaurateur Stephen Starr through a mutual friend helped to set the plans in motion. “We looked at a lot of spaces in Philly. This one just had the right feel from the size and shape,” he said. All of the dishes on the bill of

fare are written on the establishment’s walls, but patrons also receive menus so there is no need to worry about squinting. The neighborhood, dinner-only eatery offers patrons a variety of options ranging from Marinated Cucumbers to a dry-aged Creekstone rib-eye. “There are a lot of options depending on how much or how little you want to eat,” he said. “I learned a lot from my last job. Everybody wants something different, and not everyone wants to spend $600 for a meal.” The chef brought along two familiar faces to help out with the new venture as Richard Fell is serving as general manager and Anne Strong is the chef de cuisine. Tuesday afternoon, the staff was busy performing the prep work for the evening service the in open, stage-like kitchen space. Serpico’s Marinated Cucumbers are one of his dishes that doesn’t require a James Beard Award to make.

“It’s one of those dishes that you can prepare ahead of time and have in the fridge or take to a party,” he said.
