Based on last week’s federal court ruling, do you think it’s unconstitutional to force Americans to purchase health insurance? “It’s definitely unconstitutional. It’s not like it’s a tax for the good of the people. It’s something personal.� Jeremy Tamburello, 12th and Moore streets
“I think it’s unconstitutional to force it. I think health insurance should be available to all.� Leilani Macomber, Juniper Street and Snyder Avenue

A win-win for all To the Editor: I would like to respond to Carlo Gonnella (“NFL Fans: Winners or Losers?, �Aug. 4) who argues that the fans have one again been stooged. In fact, the opposite has happened. Not only have the players benefitted from the new collective bargaining agreement, but the fans will benefit from better football, and knowing that the players whom we watch will have better health care when they retire (so we can do away with some of that nasty guilt). The players we watch will now be healthier while they are playing and better players will be paid to play. It is well-documented that bodies need recovery time after strenuous exercise, and when football players finish a grueling season, their bodies need to mend and their minds need to refresh. When they return to training camp, they will be eager to play. Also, since rookie players will no longer receive gaudy salaries, cap money will go to experienced players and teams will no longer fear the cap hit of high-draft choices. In other words — teams will be able to field the best teams their money can buy. How, then, did the fans lose? How many games did fans miss? The owners may have been greedy, but the last time I checked players are unbelievably skilled entertainers who risk their lives every Sunday, and their earning window is short. Let’s be thankful they got a deal they deserve.
worse than what the Democrats call the real numbers. The idea that the Democrats are for the little people is absurd. Has anything changed for the poor people in this country? Mr. Obama does well to take great amounts of campaign money from quite a few of the large corporations in this country. Are they in bed with Mr. Obama? If George Bush was the president now he would be crucified for this situation. Going on three years since the election, it is clear that Obama is president, not Bush. Make no mistake — the Democrats stand for the persons who go into the supermarket and pay with food stamps then go out to their new SUV. The Democrats stand for entitlements without earning them. The Democrats stand for close to 50 percent of the country not paying [income] taxes while everyone else has to foot the bill. The Democrats stand for a tremendous lack of common sense. The Democrats stand for a biased media that help get them elected by demonizing the opposition because they have no accomplishments to stand on. As you can see the Democrats stand for quite a bit.

Burglars raided a Bella Vista jewelry business after invading the owner’s upstairs apartment. By Amanda L. Snyder Review Managing Editor
A
few men forced their way into a South-Street jewelry-store owner’s apartment and robbed about $1 million worth of merchandise from his shop. Three to five burglars — masked and armed — awakened the 27-year-old in his second-floor apartment on the 600 block of South Street at 4 a.m. Aug. 11 commanding him to hand over the keys to his first-story establishment, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The offenders tied the owner’s hands and covered his face with a pillow while they gathered the jewelry from V.I.P Jewelers, 637 South St. Police did not provide any further descriptions on the offenders, but were reviewing surveillance video at press time.

Serial robber indicted
A senior was pushed down the steps of his Lower Moyamensing home and robbed Saturday morning. The 84-year-old walked down the front steps of his home on the 1000 block of Cantrell Street at 10:20 a.m. when he was shoved, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. He collapsed, hit his head and lost consciousness. Upon awaking, his wallet, which contained credit and medical cards, along with $220, was gone. He was taken to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in stable condition and treated for a swollen left jaw and scraped left arm, Tolliver said. Police did not have the offenders’ descriptions at press time. To report information, call South Detectives’ tip line at 215-685-1635 or visit www.phillypolice.com/forms.
A Kensington man was charged with six bank robberies — including two in South Philly — and two attempted bank heists last week. After serving about a 10-year sentence for three bank robberies, an alleged serial bank robber was released from prison last month and subsequently stole more than $1,100 over the course of 16 days. John Digman, 48, of Kensington, was charged federally Aug. 11 with eight charges, according to the indictment. He is believed to have attempted to rob Bank of America, 1841 E. Allegheny Ave., July 11 and its 1501-Locust-St. location July 19. Meanwhile, he allegedly robbed PNC Bank, 900 Walnut St., July 11 of $1,350; its 1849-Walnut-St. spot July 18 of $358; Beneficial Bank, 826 E.

A warrant was out for his arrest and Bensalem Police arrested him at a Bucks-County motel July 31, according to the FBI.

An area native will put one of his numerous talents on display at next month’s Vendemmia Festival. By Natalie Pantaleo Smoley Review Special Contributor
This the rst in a series of proles previewing the Sept. 25 Vendemmia Festival.
W
hen Dr. Jerry Vernose, chairman of the Vendemmia Foundation and Festival first told me about Johnny Staircase, he referred to him as a renaissance man. Hmmm. Cliché I wondered? I felt compelled to Google the term. Wikipedia says a renaissance man (or woman, I guess) is a person whose expertise spans a significant number of different subject areas. Immediately I conjured images of Leonardo da Vinci, Benjamin Franklin, Michelangelo, Walt Disney and even (dare I say) Madonna. However, one I could not possibly have imagined was homegrown John “Staircase” Tenaglia, a master wood craftsman from South Philly who wears a pencil over his ear and has a foldable wooden tape measure wedged in the back pocket of his jeans. That is, until I met him. Understated? Absolutely. Cliché? No way. Carpentry is just one of the professions of Tenaglia who serves as owner/partner of John’s Custom Stairways and Millwork Co., 2115 S. Eighth St. He has acquired a few other titles since grad school: Professional baritone, classical pianist, teacher, master winemaker, music director, banquet facility purveyor, husband and father. Because the Bridesburg resident is a humble man, he doesn’t talk about his career path. However, Vernose loves to point out that Tenaglia did a stint of pre-med at New York University. It’s part of the doc’s bragging rights as the avuncular figure responsible for discovering this renaissance man — at least in his wine-making capacity; Tenaglia has been a preeminent, awardwinning winemaker at the annual Vendemmia Wine Festival for the past six years. He laughingly says, “that and $2 will get me on a bus.” Now, I am not a wine connoisseur nor classical music authority, but, like most, I know what I like. And I thoroughly enjoyed sipping Tenaglia’s pinot noir, while listening in an almost private audience to his powerful, yet too short appetizer of “O
Sole Mio.” I felt the table in front of me vibrate as he struck the crescendo, “sta ’nfronte a te!” and my beautiful garnet pinot pitched against the side of my glass. What could be better than this, I asked myself: An interview with a guy from my own neighborhood, indulging me in a palpable cultural experience, while members of his posse — veteran workers at the mill shop Ralphy Pultrone and Steve Giannone — tossed me a salad with John’s homemade wine vinegar, and sliced up some Faragalli’s bread? I’m not sure if it was before the grappa (but it was definitely after “O Sole Mio”), when I finally asked Tenaglia why he had chosen the mill shop over professional opera singing. “I’m a family man,” he said contentedly. “I wanted to be around my kids when they were growing up. And, I was around the mill shop my entire life. In fact, some of the equipment I still use today belonged to my grandfather who started the business. When I’m here, the musical part of my brain is elsewhere, and vice versa.” But it is there, beneath the mill shop, where another passion flourishes. The basement is home to his wine cellar. From my perspective, it is an unfinished
cellar like those of many South Philadelphia homes I knew during my childhood with a statue of the Blessed Mother on a windowsill, exposed organic stone walls, and a makeshift kitchen (so as not to dirty the real kitchen upstairs). And down there, just like the goings on above ground, the winemaking is a meticulous obsession. From tasting grapes before buying them each season to the science by which Tenaglia chooses sugar, acid, nutrients or yeast, it’s all about passion and perfection like any other art form. When Tenaglia is not making wine —or stairways or doors — he still sings professionally, but selectively. He is the music director at St. Peter’s Church in Merchantville, N.J. He once sang with Luciano Pavarotti. “[Pavarotti] brought back opera to everyday people in the ’70s like Mario Lanza did in the ’50s. He made himself and opera a household name. He knew his voice and how to use it. “Personally, I found him to be, well not as humble as he should have been. I believe your personality shows in your singing. Of course, that’s just my opinion . . . and he was Pavarotti, and I’m here sucking sawdust.”
One of South Philly native John Tenaglia’s hobbies is making his own wine in his cellar. Some of his creations can be sampled at the Vendemmia Festival Sept. 25. P h o t o b y N ata l i e P a n ta l e o S m o l e y
OK. OK, so this is a very talented guy, but a renaissance man living among us? After all, he hasn’t invented anything yet (unless you consider, as I have, the discovery of Tenaglia’s home-cured earthy prosciutto and spicy sopressata, or his homemade grappa that goes down as smoothly as aged single malt Scotch). Well, don’t hold your breath. One never knows what a shining mind like Tenaglia’s might have in store next. For now, he is no doubt a person whose expertise spans a significant number of different subject areas. SPR The Vendemmia Wine Festival, which is open to the public, takes place 2 to 6 p.m. Sept. 25 at Girard Park, 21st and Porter streets.

Joseph Bologna, of the South Street Mini Station, 905 South St., said. “They actually welcomed it.” There were about 31 curfew violators Friday plus a few more Saturday, he said. “I think word got out,” Bologna, who transferred from the 1st District in October, said on the decrease in summary citations although he doesn’t believe teens were ignorant of the temporary change in curfew Friday. “I think they were aware of it,” he said.

NUTTER IMPLEMENTED THE change in curfew Aug. 8 in two areas of the city: Center City/South Philly — Vine to Bainbridge streets, river to river — and University City — 38th to 43rd streets Market Street to Baltimore Avenue. The Friday- and Saturday-night mandate lasts through Aug. 28 after which it will return to 10 p.m. for those younger than 13 and midnight for those ages 13 to 17, which it is currently in parts of the city outside the executive order’s realm. On Sundays through Thursdays, the curfew remains 9:30 and 10:30 p.m., respectively, until after Labor Day when those younger than 13 must be home by 9 p.m., according to a City ordinance. “I am sure that young people and their parents have now gotten the message,” Nutter said Monday after the first weekend of the new temporary curfew. “We are going to continue to promote the positive, but we will also have continued enforcement of the curfew. It is strict and serious and there are no exceptions.” While South Street only added a few extra officers to aid in transporting youngsters to the 3rd District, police presence citywide increased over the weekend and will continue to improve safety, Commissioner Charles Ramsey said in a statement. “Enforcing an early curfew this weekend was an important part of making our City safe for everyone,” he said. “Senseless violence by a few will not be tolerated in Center City, University City or anywhere in Philadelphia.” After the trial, the mayor and the police department will evaluate the order, but so far, many seem to like the outcome after its debut. “It’s getting positive feedback from the community and the business people on South Street,” Bologna said.

BECHER AND PHS are certainly not averse to giving and receiving loyalty. With the crowd gathered, he spoke of Chew’s master plan, a labor that will include a learning garden with a seat wall, a low-fencing secure play area, asphalt pavement removal, seating areas for educational activities and extra benches. “To reduce stormwater runoff, we will also have new street trees and tree trenches,” Becher said, giving a nod to the Philadelphia Water Department. Representing the City, Michael DiBerardinis spoke of the Parks and Recreation Department’s 20-year affiliation with PHS. “Today proves the commitment the city and PHS have to increasing the beauty and utility of our neighborhoods,” the deputy mayor for environmental and community resources said. Tom Angelucci has enjoyed being a contributor to that beauty. The dealer marketing manager for Subaru of America’s Philly Zone presented the Outback, which remained under a white cover until the end. “We are excited to help PHS to continue its outreach to its many communities,” Angelucci said of the organization, whose International Flower Show — the world’s largest indoor flower exhibition — has received his company’s title sponsorship for 11 years. With the children’s excitement nearing its apex, Chew’s fourth-year leader Octavia Cherry capped the presenters’ portion. The resident of 18th and Federal streets
applied last year to have her site receive attention and shook off nerves to declare her gratitude. “I am so thankful,” she said. “The children have taken the chance to be creative and have been happy every second. Thank you for giving them cause to feel so productive.” Terming them “my babies,” she thanked the youngsters by name. With speeches concluded, her charges grabbed the sheet and unveiled the vibrant vehicle, eliciting cheers and exclamations of amazement. The fluorescent specimen features floral and gardening tool designs. “The Green Machine will go to numerous locations to deliver supplies and to present educational programs,” Alan Jaffe, PHS’ public relations manager, said, adding that his employer will look to build a fleet of vehicles to provide goods and wisdom. “Say ‘trees!’” Cherry said, putting an opportunistic spin on the familiar “cheese!” as everyone huddled for photos. The distribution of water ice enticed a few campers from the scene, but many took advantage of a chance to sit in the vehicle. “Very cool,” Arnera said of the automotive experience. “The children are always so passionate about planting,” Cherry said, labeling it the activity through which they show the most diligence. “Even with last month’s extremely hot days, they wanted to be out there.” If blueberries or another fruit joins the stretch, she knows enthusiasm will increase. If they must care for the existing items only, she knows their confidence will remain in bloom. “They are always ready to be active,” she said. “They love helping the community.” SPR

the renovation with the camp activities, he devised Friday-morning meetings with the youngsters to plot their management of plots. Volunteer community members built 12 beds for the participants, allowing the playground’s southeast section to give passers-by an aesthetic treat. PHS supplied the soil and compost through a $30,000 grant from the William Penn Foundation, and the Philadelphia Committee of the Garden Club of America offered $2,500 to cover the sites’ plant expenses. The Chew children made apparent their appreciation for the endowments last week. “This is my first time planting, and I can’t wait to continue in the fall,” Arnera, of 20th and Ritner streets, said of her efforts. Confident she will convince her instructor to add antioxidant-rich blueberries to the offerings, she seemed content with the current contents, as a couple raspberries gave her cup of water additional benefits. “The children love to come out to work with the plants,” Roulan said. “They almost overwater because they are so eager.” A landscape designer, he has involved children in garden work for four years. For his Chew assignment, he focused on items with aromatic and/or edible leaves. French sorrel, figs, sunflowers, raspberries, peppermint and lemon verbena dominated the day. The children giddily asked attendees if they wanted leaves to flavor their drinks. Receiving affirmatives, they placed samples in cups and retreated for reinforcements. “We’ve had a great relationship with the Friends of the Chew Playground,” Drew Becher, head of the 184-year-old PHS, said as the children, all donning camp shirts, made a uniform trek to onlookers. He celebrated his first anniversary as its 36th president in June, two months into the plan to keep gardens thriving. His organization assists 70 such entities through the Philadelphia Parks and Recreation Department. That many sites suffer from neglect prompted the Green Machine design’s birth. “We are aiming for a transportation of space and solid interaction between kids and adults,” he said. Location choice depended on the presence of infrastructure, a close union between a spot and PHS through the department and advocacy from community members. The trio of traits sealed Chew’s selection. South Philadelphia gives the project nearly a quarter of its beneficiaries, as PHS also picked Bella Vista’s Cianfrani Park, Eighth and Fitzwater streets, and Pennsport’s Dickinson Square Park, Fourth and Tasker streets. Placards told that Cianfrani has improved sight lines, aesthetic planting beds through

laying dress-up is part of Doug Thomas’ job. The Eighth-and-Moore-streets resident puts on his heavy coat and 18th-century garb during these hot summer days to roam the streets of Philadelphia as Samuel Nichols, the first officer commissioned to the U.S. Marine Corps. “I’ve been with the company [Historic Philadelphia Inc.] longer than anyone, except perhaps some of the board directors,” Thomas, who started with the company 16 years ago, said. “I was a Town Crier before there were History Makers. We wore these awful, knickers and stockings and shoes and I guess girls wore petty coats. There were these awful bright yellow vests that said ‘tour guides’ and we handed out copies of the [Historic] Philadelphia Gazette.” Today, Thomas, 48, is a director at the company and he helps to train other actors to play the part while also performing. One of his duties is leading the Tippler’s Tour — where he P h o t o b y G . Wi d m a n f o r H i s t o r i c P h i l a d e l p h i a , I n c .
Lifestyles takes revelers around to four bars in the Old City area — at least four times per week. “I’ve been doing it long enough that they finally made me a director, so I’m a director of the History Makers now,” he said. “I work as part of an artistic team to help design this programming. It’s really fantastic to have a hand in what people are going to see.” The season runs until Labor Day with a few programs held over into later months. All History Makers have a three-week training in the spring to make sure they can field all questions. “Everyone who does this every week is doing a whole lot of research still. Constantly keeping up on it,” Thomas said. “I guess your mind only holds a finite amount of information. I can almost feel other dates and facts being pushed out of my head.” Sixteen years on the job has made Thomas an expert on Nichols, but there are some things that can’t be found in history books or the hundreds of hours of research Thomas has put in over the years. “Someone might say, ‘Samuel Nichols, do you have a dog?’ I have no idea if he had a dog. I just have to take an educated guess. He ran a tavern, and if there was a dog, it was probably a spit dog that worked the spit around the fire,” he said.
“History is so vast you never get done doing research.” Thomas continues to don his heavy gear in the sweltering heat because he enjoys teaching visitors and locals alike about the history that makes Philadelphia great. “This is a great time of year because this is when we get families. I had a family yesterday that I talked to for about a half-hour. There was a 6- or 7-year-old boy who was asking pretty intelligent, in-depth questions about the American military in the 18th century,” Thomas said. “They all had interesting things to say — the mother and aunt, too. “It is a great way for kids to learn about history. To walk the streets the way Ben Franklin did.”
dual major in theater arts and speech communications. “I took an apprenticeship with the Arden Theatre Co. The apprentice program, it’s not acting, there are a variety of things you can apprentice in,” Thomas said. Since then Thomas has become something of a jack-ofall-things production, working as an actor, as well as in various behind-thescenes roles. He has a certification to choreograph stage fighting and travels to play other firstperson interpreter characters in addition to Nichols; However, he maintains he never plays any of the “big names,” such as George Washington or Thomas Jefferson. “I was an apprentice for 10 months and right before I left my position as apprentice, I got a job working with Historic Philadelphia,” Thomas said. “I’ve worked for them every single summer since I’ve been there.

revamped everything. They kept the programming that was already in place and that was working and they added to it, which has been really great.” The new version of the program started by then-Gov. Ed Rendell in ’94 is the result of the artistic direction and the dedication of employees like Thomas, who is proud of the slate of offerings he puts on and even happier to be in a city so rich with history — and a neighborhood that is the height of convenience. “I was looking to buy a house and I like that South Philly is close to everything and I came down and looked around the neighborhood,” the three-year homeowner said. “I liked it, the kind of sense of community. I’m not far from the Italian Market, buses that run to Center City, not far from the subway.” Between his new home and the continuing education he provides to daily visitors about Philadelphia’s historic center, Thomas is living the life he always intended. “I was never drawn to New York, but even when I was kid, having been in a small town, I thought Philadelphia was a cool place to live because of all the history,” he said.

I hate Wall Street (Written as a rant that should be delivered by comedian Lewis Black, the only man angry enough to deliver it.)
Y
ou want to know how bad the economy is going? People Magazine took a survey of America’s favorite financial institutions. No. 1 is an empty Folgers coffee can. I rather stuff my money in a Sealey Posturepedic than the stock market. Things are so bad, I saw a squirrel in Marconi Plaza selling off his nuts. Can you believe Standard & Poor’s actually lowered the nation’s credit rating to AA+? My bookie has a higher rating. The only reason people are not jumping out of office windows is they’re sealed to keep in the central air. This is a freakin’ mess. I’m sick of all of these high-finance experts giving us advice after the fact. If you’re so damn smart, you ought to be able to tell us the day before the stock market tanks. Now experts like Suze Orman and Jim Cramer have turned into pyscho-therapists: Here’s 10 ways to handle your stock market losses. Well, handle this! Don’t tell me not to get upset. I have a right to get upset. I just went from buying a summer home to selling No. 2 pencils in City Hall’s courtyard. One joker on CNBC told us every time we lose another $5,000 in our 401(k) pretend we just took a trip to Paris. I’ve been to stinkin’ “Paris” five times in the last month without leaving my living room. Next time I’m jumping off the Eiffel Tower and I’m dragging Ben Bernanke with me. I saw Alan Greenspan on TV the other day (by the way, Andrea Mitchell ought to get some kind of humanitarian award for sleeping with this guy). Greenspan said Wall Street has lost confidence in us — the consumers. Well, I got some news for Greenspan — I’ve lost confidence in those greedy SOBs on Wall Street. Wall Street screwed us over. The bankers with their phony mortgage deals and the shysters selling junk make Bernie Madoff look like Mother Theresa. And Bernie’s in jail while the rest of them are on their sailboats drinking mojitos. None of the crooks on Wall Street went to jail. They sent Plaxico Burress to Rikers for two-and-a-half years for shooting himself in the groin, and these Wall Street thieves gave themselves Christmas bonuses! What is this? The new slogan on Wall Street is: “Wham! Bam! Thank you, ma’am.” The Republicans have a solution to solv-
ing the crisis — actually two solutions. The Republicans always have the back of the little guy, especially when they’re sticking a shiv in it. They say the solution to stop the fat cats from breaking government regulations is to do away with the regulations. Better yet, they say, do away with government. There is a certain evil genius to this approach. If you do away with laws, pretty soon you eliminate law breaking. After awhile, the jails are empty and you save taxpayers’ money, so you can give it back to the rich guys by giving them a tax break for flying their corporate jets. The freakin’ Republicans have figured out a way to end crime as we know it! You’ve got to love the bankers. Taxpayers bailed out the banks and they repaid us by raising the interest on loans and lowering the interest on CDs. The interest is so low on CDs that now it seems you have to pay the banks 2 percent for being kind enough to hold your money. Last time I checked, my interest had accumulated enough so I could buy a two Musketeers bar. Maybe if I save long enough, I’ll be able to include the third musketeer the next time around. Our president, God love him, never gets excited. The government has turned to rubble and in Michelle’s garden, the organic veggies all died in the drought. The prez remains cool. He counsels patience. Maybe we should give in a little more to the Tea Party, he figures. Here’s a man who has already lost his shirt negotiating with these vipers and he thinks the solution is to reason with them. I don’t trust Obama for five minutes in any room with Eric Cantor — or Eddie Cantor. Obama is a nice guy, but he’s a mark. He thinks he’s playing with frat brothers from Harvard. Next time he negotiates with the Republicans, he better hang on to his Brooks Brothers shorts. The only people happy these days are the evangelicals because they are rooting for the apocalypse. Michele Bachman and her husband have a clinic where they turn gays into straights. So far it has confirmed three conversions. Lindsay Lohan went from straight to gay and back to straight (if you’re counting, that’s three conversions). If Lohan becomes bisexual, Bachman’s conversion total will jump to five (one for each sex). Don’t despair, Rick Perry is joining the race. The answer to all of our problems is another Texas governor in the White House. Perry is sort of Bush’s evil twin. In fairness to Perry, he saw the crisis coming and tried to get Texas to secede from the Union. Maybe if he gets to be president, all 50 states will secede and we can join Germany where the economy is humming right along. Where the hell are Bonnie and Clyde when you need them?

Changing the times
An aspiring writing allows Aibileen (Viola Davis) to voice her opinion about her bittersweet life as a maid during the 1960s.
By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer
L
ike the book within the book on which it’s based, “The Help” largely works because it’s often told from the point of view of the black maids it aims to (mildly) emancipate. Thus, while no one should expect the movie to thrust Hollywood forward in terms of race representation, many can rest easy knowing it isn’t just another “The Blind Side” – an ostensibly anti-racism film that’s hopelessly racist nonetheless. By giving its minorities authoritative voices that, however broadly drawn, are truly heard and respected, “The Help” frees itself from simply being yet more pandering soul food for white folks. Of course, it still provides the requisite white protagonist chasing a dream, this time in the form of Skeeter (Emma Stone), a fresh college grad and aspiring author who’s the liberal light amidst her uppity, bigoted friends in 1960s Mississippi. Working as a ghostwriter for a local housekeeping column, Skeeter starts gleaning tips from her friend’s maid, Aibileen (Viola Davis), while also initiating a book project that explores the secret lives of the black help. There’s crushing pain to be revealed, and also plenty of dirt to dish, as evidenced by the chapters offered by Aibileen’s brassy best friend, Minny (Octavia Spencer), the former maid of the story’s nastiest dolled-up segregationist (Bryce Dallas Howard). Adapted from Kathryn Stockett’s novel, this is a vastly entertaining movie that keeps its pace and interest bubbling throughout a hefty 137-minute length. Davis gives an aching, transcendent performance enriched by everything from inflections to the depth of her gaze (she’s the true standout, despite the gifted Spen-
cer hogging all the buzz), while enigmatic up-and-comer Jessica Chastain is an infectious hoot as a kindly, ignorant outsider. (Surprisingly, the weak link is “It Girl” Stone, who’s miscast and looks lost amidst her memorable co-stars.) “The Help” has a certain aversion to complicated conflict, and it opts for a weepy, tacked-on coda that works against its merits and further muddles its dualheroine perspective. But, all told, it’s a big and bountiful experience, a predominantly sensitive bit of historical fiction that fills you up, fluff and all.
The Help PG-13 Three reels out of four Now playing in area theaters
Recommended Rental Win Win R Available Aug. 23 Actor-turned-filmmaker Tom McCarthy (“The Visitor”) returns with “Win Win,” another highly empathetic American indie that follows a struggling lawyer (Paul Giamatti) as he makes some awfully desperate choices and becomes a surrogate dad to a superstar teen wrestler (Alex Shaffer). McCarthy shows his usual talent for merging true humanity with only-inthe-movies coincidence, and his great cast also includes Bobby Cannavale and Amy Ryan.

Spread Bagelry By Phyllis Stein-Novack R e s ta u r a n t R e v i e w e r
O
ur city is a culinary capital: Chef Georges Perrier is known throughout the world; Marc Vetri and Michael Solomonov have won James Beard Awards; and Jose Garces is an Iron Chef. However, there is one food that, until several weeks ago, you could not find in the city: An authentic bagel. I searched high and low. I found fake bagels in Queen Village and bakeries that shall remain nameless on the Main Line. I call these atrocities pregnant Marilyn Monroes — they’re fat, dishwater blond in color, bereft of texture and often lack a hole in the center. For months I have been waiting for Spread Bagelry to open. The Internet was abuzz that Larry Rosenblum of Center City and Mark Cosgrove of Elkins Park were to open a Montreal bagel restaurant. Huzzah! Real bagels can now be found near Rittenhouse Square. A little history is in order before I tell you to run, not walk, to Spread Bagelry if you have been deprived of real bagels for years and years. Montreal bagels are made-by-hand, treated to a hot-water bath, laced with a little bit of honey and baked in a woodburning oven until deep, golden brown on the outside and chewy inside. I’ve eaten bagels in Montreal and they are, like our original astronauts, the real thing. I made several visits to Spread Bagelry. I appeared on opening day and placed my order at the counter where I received a big ceramic coffee mug to fill with rich, dark La Colombe coffee ($2). You may Coffee/Café/Sweets

drink as much of this splendid blend as you wish. The line was out the door, but I didn’t care. I was salivating with hope that my lunch would take me to my childhood when bagels were real. I ordered a classic everything bagel with cream cheese, smoked nova, plum tomatoes and Vidalia onions ($9). Rosenblum places his prized bagels in a red plastic basket lined with wax paper. I found it difficult to eat this way because I like to eat my bagel and nova open face. There was little room to rearrange my lunch but no matter. One bite and I was dining on Jewish soul food at its finest. I thought it funny that the eatery included a kosher dill pickle instead of cucumbers and Greek olives, which I always serve with bagels and smoked fish. I walked into the backroom and slid onto a banquette. The table was an adorable, small, round piece of granite — the kind found in old-fashioned ice cream parlors. I forgot to bring a book but lady luck was on my side. Rosenblum and Cosgrove provide newspapers, books and magazines for your reading pleasure. On an blustery, rainy Sunday morning, Edward dropped me off at Spread Bagelry where I purchased a few everything, a sesame seed and a poppy bagel. Bagels are $2 a piece but worth every cent. They are made by people, not machines. Commercial whitefish salad can be too salty, mushy in texture and contain too much mayonnaise. Congratulations to Rosenblum because he hit the mark. It is

pricey — $8 for half a pound. It is, in my estimation, the finest you can purchase anywhere. Rosenblum told me they fillet jumbo whitefish at the restaurant and blend it by hand. In other word, they make it themselves. Bagel with whitefish salad, tomato and onion is $9 if you eat it at the restaurant. I am familiar with Acme smoked fish in Brooklyn, N.Y. Many restaurants buy their nova, regular lox and whitefish salad from them. Rosenblum said he purchases his smoked fish from Banner in Coney Island, N.Y. I did some culinary sleuthing and discovered this company treats their fish to a cold smoke using maple wood. This is why the taste and texture of the fish at Spread Bagelry was so divine.
The restaurant is open daily from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. According to the menu “our spreads are homemade — using seasonal, local farm fresh and organic ingredients whenever possible.” Three extraordinary tips of the toque to Spread Bagelry. SPR

A chilled bowl of soup provides a delightful escap pe from the summer heat. Try th hese classics from ‘Great Recipes from The New York Times.’ By Phyllis Stein-Novack Food Columnist
■ Cold Cucumber Soup ■ Ingredients:
Directions: Place the first four ingredients in a saucepan. Add the cereal and seasonings.
Note from Phyllis: We have come a long way since the book was first published. People now use food processors for chopping, blending and pureeing. When I make this soup, I always use small Israeli cucumbers, which are peeled, and yogurt in place of heavy cream in this recipe. I never cook it. But I wanted to share a recipe from the ’70s.
■ Puree of Asparagus Soup ■ Ingredients: 1-1/2 to 2 pounds of asparagus (1 average bundle) 4 tablespoons of butter 1/2 onion, finely chopped 3-1/2 to 4 cups of chicken stock Salt and pepper, to taste 1/8 teaspoon of grated nutmeg
Directions: Break the ends off of the asparagus and
discard. Wash them well and cut off the tips. Slice stalks diagonally into 1/2-inch pieces Heat the butter in a skillet. Add the onion and cook for three minutes. Add the sliced stalks and cook for one minute. Add 2-1/2 cups of the stock, salt and pepper. Add the nutmeg. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer until the stalks are barely tender. Add the tips and cook for about three minutes. Blend the asparagus and liquid in a blender until smooth. Chill the soup for several hours. Whisk enough of the remaining stock into the pureed asparagus mixture to make the desired consistency. Serve in chilled bowls. Serves three to four. Note from Phyllis: It is a good thing Sokolov gave pound amounts for the asparagus because an average bundle can vary from store to store. Note he does not say kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. It was not until ’84 when Barbara Kafka published “Food for Friends” that home cooks began to use kosher salt. This soup also is delicious served hot. Top it with small, homemade buttery croutons, bite-sized bits of crisp slab bacon or pancetta. SPR Comment at www.southphillyreview.com/foodand-drink/features.

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I August 18, 2011
ne of my favorite pastimes is frequenting old bookstores. Drop me in any city: London, Paris, New York, Chicago or San Francisco and I will be filled with bliss just rummaging through the dusty aisles. I love used books. I often reflect about the previous owner and always take delight if there is a hand-written inscription on the title page. I bought my copy of “Mastering the Art of French Cooking” from a used bookstore in New Hope. The inscription reads: “To Ted and Dottie, Bon appetite for all the good things of life! Freddie and Charles, February, 1970.” Charles was the identical twin of Paul Child, Julia’s husband. Freddie was his wife. I get a special kick if my purchase is out of print. Pleasure comes upon me when I hold a book, turn its pages and tuck in a bookmarker when I put it down. I will never buy a NOOK or Kindle because I don’t like the cold feel of them. For this column, I placed some old cookbooks on my desk, shut my eyes and pointed to “Great Recipes from The New York Times” edited by Raymond Sokolov, published in 1973. I’m not sure if it is out of print, but if you happen upon a copy, buy it.
Sokolov, 70, holds a degree in classics from Harvard University. He was a foreign correspondent for Newsweek in France, returned to New York and joined The New York Times. According to the blurb on the dust jacket, during his years as food editor of The New York Times, he gathered recipes from famous French chefs, as well as inventive amateurs, from historic American homes and from authentic Chinese sources. Since the weather has been ghastly, here are recipes for cool summer soups from “Great Recipes.” Just add a big green salad, loaf of bread and a glass of sauvignon blanc and you will enjoy a delicious supper.

SOUTH PHILLY REVIEW I AUGUST 18, 2011
wo weeks from today, Temple University junior defensive end Kadeem Custis will begin to do his best to sustain his North Philadelphia school’s recent reputation as a football force. A product of Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., the 6-foot-4 stalwart will look to frustrate the Villanova Wildcats at Lincoln Financial Field, 1020 Pattison Ave. With 17 wins in the last two years, the Mid-American Conference member welcomes a new coach, Steve Addazio, fresh off a two-year stint as the offensive coordinator at the University of Florida. The Connecticut native will often enlist Custis, a 295-pound monster, to terrorize offensive linemen. The product of 32nd and Dickinson streets, he claimed multiple All-Catholic selections as an offensive and defensive lineman at his East Passyunk Crossing secondary school. With the Owls, he has appeared in 22 games, with four starts, registering 23 tackles. He recorded his lone career sack Oct. 23 in a 42-0 road decimation of The University at Buffalo. His sophomore year efforts helped his squad to finish 16th in Division I with a 19.1 points-against average. Frank Coleman, Darrell Dulany, Louis Mobley
and Buddy Visack also plan to make NeumannGoretti proud. A sophomore defensive back with Lancaster’s Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology Battling Bulldogs, a junior college unit, Coleman will seek to disrupt wide receivers in Seaboard Conference clashes. Senior Dulany will likewise seek interceptions from his defensive back position while playing for the University of Rhode Island Rams, a Colonial Athletic Association participant. Another senior, Mobley will hope to spring running backs for long runs as an offensive lineman for the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference’s Indiana University of Pennsylvania Crimson Hawks. A sophomore linebacker, Visack will try to stuff runners and drop receivers for Doylestown’s Delaware Valley College Aggies, a Middle Atlantic Conference power, who last season advanced to the second round of the Division III playoffs. As a tight end for South Philadelphia High School, 2101 S. Broad St., Jahmel Bashir battled the Saints in Thanksgiving Day contests. A senior for the Delaware State University Hornets, he will aim to sting Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference defenders after making six grabs for 72 yards last year. SPR

I want in this short prayer to thank You for all things as You confirm once again that I never want to be separated from You even in spite of all material illusions. I wish to be with You in eternal glory. Thank You for your mercy towards me and mine. This prayer must be said for three days and after three days the favor will be granted.

NoveNa to St. JoSeph Dear St. Joseph, head of the most perfect household, foster father of Jesus and guardian of His mother Mary, I confidently place myself and all my concerns under your care and protection. I ask that, through your powerful intercession with God, you obtain for us all the help and graces that I need for my spiritual and temporal welfare and in particular, the special favor I now ask…(here mention and think of your petition, especially family needs).
