ore than 10,000 shiny, new vehicles have been packed and shipped on approximately 12-story vessels from South Korea and unloaded at the port for last-minute preparations prior to shipping them to dealerships. And there are many more on the way. Hyundai Motor and Kia Motors began

delivering to the Packer Avenue Marine Terminal, Packer Avenue and Columbus Boulevard, with five shipments already here and two more expected to arrive tomorrow and Saturday bringing in more than 17,000 automobiles to prepare for sale this month alone. “Contracts have been negotiated between various parties as the facility has been built out and when we were finally ready with contracts secured and a proper

facility, we have begun to receive vessels,” Robert C. Blackburn, senior deputy executive director of the Philadelphia Regional Port Authority, said. The first vessel, Hyundai 203, arrived Aug. 2 with crews unloading 1,811 vehicles the following morning at 8. About 3,400 were unloaded Aug. 14 plus 1,500 more the next day.

What are your thoughts on the comments Donovan McNabb made in the GQ article? “It just shows you that Philly is a tough town to play for and not everybody is able to handle the criticism.” Frank White, Third and Porter streets

“He’s a crybaby, plain and simple. He chokes in the big games, he blames everybody and it is never his fault.” Lorraine Monaghan, 2000 block of South Watts Street

“I think Philadelphia is going to be better off without him. If they give the new guy (Kevin Kolb) a chance, Philly has a chance to win a Super Bowl.” Rev. Kurt Ferguson, Broad Street and Snyder Avenue

“None of the fans wanted him here, they wanted somebody else. He made a lot of guys, but a lot of guys made him. He’s better off with another team.” David Warren, 15th and Emily streets

Instant love affair

To the Editor: My mother always told me, “don’t talk to strangers.” I usually do as I’m told. Today though, on the No. 40 bus going east on South Street, everything my mother told me went in one ear and out the other. A strikingly handsome, majorly fit man proudly wearing a Tuskegee Airmen hat got on the bus and I was immediately awestruck. Here, right here on the No. 40 bus, was an famous icon of American history — a stranger, but I didn’t care. I leaped over to the seat next to him, told him how thrilled I was to be in his presence and what an honor it was to meet him. His smile was as spectacular as fireworks on the Fourth of July and he introduced himself as, ”John, 90 years old, and an original Tuskegee Airman. I’m on my way back from my karate class.” I was so impressed and delighted to share a seat with a living legend from such a prestigious flying unit from the World War II days. He told me something so genuine. “You know Anne, there is a chronological age and a physiological age — I may be 90, but I feel 79.” “John you look more like you are 16,” I responded. I saw his fireworks again. With a handshake and goodbye, I got off the bus with a proud-to-be-anAmerican glow about me. I was definitely at the right place at the right time today. To my friendly stranger, John, I say, “it was a privilege to ride the bus with you,” and to my mother, I say, ”all’s well that ends well!”

Salary discrepancies To the Editor: Let me get this straight. The City of Philadelphia is having a major financial crisis and the Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Arlene Ackerman, receives an annual salary of $338,000 with an expected bonus of $65,000. She is also eligible for a 3 percent raise by the end of the year. Does anyone see anything wrong with this picture? What exactly has she done as superintendent to merit such an income? According to recent statistics, her sal-

ary is higher than the school officials in New York and Los Angeles. Does anyone care? Meanwhile, Mayor Michael Nutter’s annual salary is less than $190,000. He has taken pay cuts. He has refused to enter the DROP program. He is actively making an effort to do his part to reduce waste in city government. What does it say about our city when the superintendent of schools has a larger salary than its mayor? Image is everything and Philadelphia is definitely not looking good. Carol A. Pasquarello South Philadelphia

the nicknames here is “filthadelphia.” Since then I’ve grown to know why. We have another thing we tell visitors about the city: “Many people here just don’t care.” In the meantime, I’ll continue to walk past those signs that warn of a $300 fine for not cleaning up after your dog, grin sarcastically and say, “I’d love to see someone get a citation for that.” The folks all the way down in Citizens Bank Park would hear me cheering.

Anthony (Tony) Reese South Philadelphia

Is it Philadelphia or Filthadelphia? To the Editor: What I’m about to say may seem like an irrational and irate tirade but I assure you it’s not. As residents of South 11th Street — between Cantrell on the north and Winton on the south — we are mad as hell and we’re not going to take it anymore. My wife, who’s heart is pure and energy level is astounding, just went out early on a Friday morning and cleaned up — with standard broom, push broom, dust pan and trash receptacle — every bit of dog waste and trash on our side of the street. And I can assure you there was a ridiculous amount to gather. It is absolutely amazing to me how much apathy people have when it comes to this neighborhood and the city as a whole. For example, we’ve seen people finish a bag of chips and toss it on the ground without thinking twice. And this is unspoken — finding feces to step in is as easy as walking out the front door. It infuriates me! Our dog, in the six years we’ve had him (in Pennsylvania and Michigan), has never left his business behind for someone else to find. Why? Because my wife and I have the common sense and respect to clean up after him. Seriously, is this too much to ask? We moved to Philadelphia about three years ago. At that time she said, “you know it’s funny; one of

Religion is not the enemy To the Editor: What is at stake in the current controversy about the building of an Islamic Center in New York is more than religious freedom. It is about fueling hatred and continued terrorism. The Islamic religion is not our enemy. Violent extremists who use the cover of religion to mask their political purposes are the enemy. I include in that group any American politician who would use this incident to encourage a particular political outcome without regard to the safety of innocent Americans. As a Catholic who remembers times of discrimination and persecution of my own faith, I am totally disgusted that some who call themselves Christians would unleash the same hatred towards Muslims. All of us are children of God and we must learn to work together for peace. We hand the extremists a weapon when we attack one another in the name of religion. Gloria C. Endres South Philadelphia

Letters Tone it down An Open Letter to SEPTA: On August 5, my 9-year-old granddaughter and I were riding on the No. 11 trolley coming from Center City at about 5:30 p.m. when a gentleman sitting in front of us began talking extremely loud on his cell phone. Not only was the volume of his tone disturbing to my granddaughter and I, but the conversation he was having with the party on the other end consisted of inappropriate language and subject. The conversation pertained to the gentleman and a married woman, which included many curse words. I also noticed expressions of disapproval on the other passengers faces. Instead of confronting the gentleman in the presence of my granddaughter, I decided to exit the trolley and take the next one. Upon entering the next No. 11 trolley, I shared my experience with the conductor and asked him who would I need to speak with in regards to this matter. The conductor told me to contact customer service.

On August 10, I went to customer service as the conductor advised me. I was given the number to contact the SEPTA’s media department because I intend on sharing this cell phone issue with the public via newspaper articles and other methods until this disrespectful matter is acknowledged and resolved. I do not believe we should pay for unwanted and inappropriate entertainment when we travel via SEPTA. This has happened on many occasions and I finally had enough of this subjection to unnecessary and disrespectful conversations while riding SEPTA’s vehicles. I understand the significance of cell phones. I have one myself, but I do not subject other passengers to my personal conversations, and I would appreciate it if SEPTA would enforce their policy pertaining to “loud noises.” Barbara Ann Mary Mack Southwest Philadelphia Comment on these letters or topics at www. southphillyreview.com/opinion/letters.

A Point Breeze man was charged with attempted murder after a Dunkin’ Donuts’ employee took a bullet to the nose. By Amanda L. Snyder R e v i e w S ta f f W r i t e r

Point Breeze man has been charged with attempted murder in connection to the early Friday morning shooting of a doughnut shop employee. A 22-year-old was behind the counter at Dunkin’ Donuts, 2025 S. Broad St., when Wilbert Saunders, of the 1900 block of Tasker Street, allegedly walked in at 12:16 a.m. and placed an order, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. After the employee prepared the beverage and returned to the counter, Saunders, who is believed to have removed a gun from his pocket, allegedly said, “open the register.” When the worker refused, Saunders allegedly pointed the weapon at the man’s face and fired one shot, striking him in the nose, Tolliver said. Saunders then allegedly left the store empty-handed, walking north on South Broad. Witnesses contacted police and identified the man walking up the street as the offender, Tolliver said. Spotting a gun in his hand, an officer demanded Saunders drop the weapon, but instead he dashed left on the 1400 block of West Passyunk Avenue, where backup officers caught up to him, Tolliver said. Saunders is believed to have dropped the firearm on the avenue, where it was recovered by police. The 49-year-old was charged with attempted murder, aggravated assault, robbery, theft, firearm violations, possession of an instrument of crime and three counts each of terroristic threats, simple assault and recklessly endangering another person. Saunders previously was on probation for possession, according to court documents. He served time for violating probation in 2007 in connection to a driving under the influence charge in ’00 and again in ’02 for simple assault and recklessly endangering another person. The employee was transported to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania and treated for the wound and a broken nose, Tolliver said. The shooting was captured on store video surveillance, Tolliver said.

Ballistic evidence was recovered at the scene.

Police witnesses Narcotics Field Unit officers in an unmarked vehicle spotted multiple shots being fired in Grays Ferry and arrested the Hawthorne teen they say is responsible. Officers driving west on the 2700 block of Reed Street reported seeing the 16-yearold from the 700 block of Fawn Street pull a small black revolver from his waistband and fire at an unknown man at 3:30 p.m. Aug. 19, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. After a brief car and foot chase, police arrested the teen on the 2700 block of Dickinson Street, Tolliver said. The unknown man was not located nor was the weapon, which police believe was dropped during their pursuit, but a 32-yearold woman received a graze wound to the back of the neck about a block away at Newkirk and Reed streets, Tolliver said. She did not seek medical treatment. The teen was charged with attempted murder, aggravated assault, simple assault, recklessly endangering another person, possession of an instrument of crime.

Murdered at work A Passyunk Square woman was killed inside her Logan-based Laundromat in what police believe was a robbery that turned into murder. After not returning home Aug. 11, Huan Mo’s family traveled to the 53-year-old’s laundry business on the 4700 block of North 15th Street that night, Officer Tanya Little of the Police Public Affairs Unit said. There, the resident of the 800 block of Dickinson Street was found at 11:37 p.m., lying in her office with multiple stab wounds to her upper chest and back. Police believe the motive was robbery, but no arrests have been made as of press time.

Police Report To report information, call the Homicide Division at 215-686-3334.

Payment unplanned A landlord seeking payment from a tenant at a Point Breeze property last week told police he instead had a gun pointed at his face. At 4:45 p.m. Aug. 18, two men, ages 50 and 55 — the latter being the landlord — went to the property on the 1200 block of South 21st Street to see Jarret Frink, 27, to ask about four weeks back rent, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The two knocked on the apartment door and Frink allegedly told the landlord he was unemployed at the time, but would find the money. Frink then allegedly retrieved a black Smith & Wesson revolver with a brown handle from a cabinet, waved it around and pointed it at the property owner, saying, “Do you want me to start robbing people? Get the f*** out of here,” Tolliver said. The 50-year-old called police and Frink identified himself as the offender upon their arrival, Tolliver said. Police recovered the loaded gun. Frink was charged with aggravated assault, simple assault, possession of an instrument of crime, recklessly endangering another person and terroristic threats.

Nine charged with prostitution Six women — including a Passyunk Square resident — and three men were charged with prostitution and criminal solicitation as a result of craigslist sting at an unidentified hotel near Philadelphia International Airport. Laura Holland, 43, of the 1600 block of South 10th Street, along with eight others, was arrested in the undercover Citywide Vice operation conducted last week, according to a Police Public Affairs Unit press release. Also arrested were Charisa Norman, 25, of the Northeast; Christine Hunter, 21, Sherri Perkins, 23, and Christopher Powell, 28, all of Drexel Hill; Edith Massle, 44, of East Falls; Jennifer Henderson, 28, of Bridgeton, N.J.; Clarence Norris, 39, of Southwest; and Joseph Stalfire, 67, of Plymouth Meeting. In addition to prostitution and criminal solicitation, the six women were charged with criminal conspiracy. continued on page 9

A 1st District lieutenant who was left with broken bones last week while trying to arrest a suspect in a pharmacy store theft was released from the hospital Monday, police said. Lt. Douglas “He’s doing great,” Stanford Sgt. Rocco Basile of the 1st District said of Lt. Douglas Stanford. Stanford arrived at Rite Aid, 1500 W. Moyamensing Ave., at 5:40 p.m. Aug. 17 for a routine security check. At that time, employees told him a man still in the store had taken items from the shelves and placed them in his bag. Stanford attempted to arrest the accused — Perry Martin — as he exited the business, but the 42-year-old allegedly resisted and the struggle continued outside. Martin, who had been arrested 22 times, allegedly “flipped Lt. Stanford and then body-slammed him with all his might

Lieutenant released from hospital

to the concrete ground,” Capt. Laurence Nodiff of South Detectives said at an Aug. 18 press conference. Martin escaped via bicycle as Stanford remained on the ground in pain, police said. The officer was transported to HUP in critical condition with three broken ribs, a bruised lung and a bruised skull. Martin was arrested near his home on the Perry Martin 1700 block of South 28th Street at 3:55 p.m. Aug. 18 and charged with retail theft, aggravated assault, recklessly endangering another person, robbery and resisting arrest, according to court documents. His prior arrests have consisted mainly of theft, retail theft and possession. He has spent time in jail for possession in connection to a 2003 charge, an ’05 retail theft and a DUI in April, but other sentences consisted solely of probation, which he reportedly had violated 62 times since ’05, according to court records. Stanford, a 29-year veteran with the department who was promoted from traffic sergeant two years ago, is “a hard-working guy. The community absolutely loves him,” 1st District Capt. Lou Campione said last week. “He runs a great squad.” There is no timeline on when he will return to work, Basile said, adding “He’s got a little bit of a road to recovery.”

ouchdowns and extra points are as familiar to Tony Luke, Jr. as top round and extra cheese. Beginning Sept. 11, the co-founder of Tony Luke’s Old Philly Style Sandwiches, 39 E. Oregon Ave., will analyze fans’ adoration of the Philadelphia Eagles with a weekly show titled “Tony Luke’s Eaglemania.” The half-hour program, with its first taping scheduled for Aug. 31, will air Saturdays at 12:05 a.m., with encore showings the following Friday at 1:05 a.m. on WPVITV Channel 6. Luke, 48, has followed the Eagles for most of his life and appeared in “Invincible,” a 2006 Disney film chronicling Vince Papale, a walk-on who earned a roster spot with the Birds in 1976. “The Eagles production company approached me. I had been on their radar

HYUNDAI continued from page 1 erage will be unloaded from each vessel, Blackburn said. “It’s a big piece of business,” Blackburn said. “Yes, it could grow. It could decline a bit depending on the market. The Korean cars have been doing well and we hope as our economy recovers, there will be more demand for automobiles.” Most recently, the area had been used for military cargo and overflow space for terminal equipment, but this is not the first car business the port has seen though, Blackburn said noting Nissans and Volkswagens occupying the space more than 10 years ago. “[Those were] nowhere near the volume this represents,” he said. THE PARTNERSHIP HAD been in the works for more than a year-and-a-half and Gov. Ed Rendell announced April 21 that there would be an importation of up to 100 vessels of 150,000 Hyundai and Kia cars yearly through the marine terminal. Holt Logistics Corp. — whose company, Greenwich Terminals LLC, has a lease

from ‘Invincible,’” Luke said of the show’s origins. “My hat is off to the organization for giving me the chance to tap into what being a fan involves. This show is going to make the fans the stars.” As one of the four new weekly interactive shows on the team’s television network, “Tony Luke’s Eaglemania” will include pranks on opposing teams’ fans, stunts and homages to individuals proving their love for the team. “Every week is going to have something different. We’re going to visit the homes of fans who’ve decorated their houses with Eagles gear, we’re going to talk with players about what they love about Philly and we’ll even have sweat sock puppet theater,” Luke said of his project, which will have 20 installments. “One of the puppets will be of Andy Reid. Someone will ask the puppet questions, but it won’t answer.” EPISODES WILL BE taped at the Trocadero Theatre, 1003 Arch St., which has been with the port authority to operate at the terminal — reached the agreement with Philly RoRo Partners. “[Philly RoRo] were looking for real estate in a major U.S. seaport for an account they had that actually was Glovis [of America], which is the company in charge of transportation for Hyundai and Kia,” Blackburn said. Hyundai Motor Co., the manufacturer of Hyundai and Kia vehicles, and Glovis of America previously used ports in Baltimore and outside of New York in Elizabeth, N.J. Services there are in the process of being phased out with Philadelphia replacing both, Blackburn said. “There will be a time in the future where all their mid-Atlantic business is coming through Philadelphia and we’re very excited about that,” he said. That time has already come, Andy Vogt, director of operations for a Glovis subsidy, Global Auto Processing Services, said. Glovis chose Philadelphia since it would allow the company to continue its reach, but with one centralized location. “Primarily because of the geographic location, it enabled us to do a port consolidation from Baltimore and New York, so

building sets to accommodate the antics Luke wants to employ. Those looking to attend a taping of the show can register for free tickets through www.philadelphiaeagles.com. Luke had no say in determining air times, but he is certain that people will view. “The times are great because sports bars will air the show. People will probably DVR it, too,” he said. The premiere occurs the day before the team opens its regular season against the Green Bay Packers (4:15 p.m.) at Lincoln Financial Field, where Luke recently opened his first all-natural sandwich stand. Green Bay factors prominently in the Eagles annals, as the Birds defeated the Wisconsin franchise, 17-13, to win the 1960 NFL Championship. This year marks the 50th anniversary of that championship run, the team’s last. Tommy McDonald, a star wide receiver who caught a 35-yard touchdown pass in the contest at Franklin Field, will be Luke’s first guest.

As for this year’s team, which will field what he calls “a fairly young cast,” Luke has dreams of Cowboys Stadium, the site of Super Bowl XLV. “We’re going to win it this year,” he said. “I think [quarterback Kevin] Kolb is going to surprise everyone.” Luke also hopes his show causes a few surprises. “It’s going to be an incredibly innovative show. I’m really looking to spotlight the fans and their commitment,” the host said. SPR

basically we shut down our operations in New York and Baltimore and consolidated our operations in Philadelphia,” he said. Hyundai increased its domestic market share from 4.8 to 7.1 percent from 2007 to ’09, according to a port authority press release. The company also moved up in the rankings in the 2010 Vehicle Dependability Study by J.D. Powers and Associates. “Quality is our No. 1 priority and cus-

and customer satisfaction, said in a statement. “Hyundai backs its cars with a 10year, 100,000-mile warranty to signal our partnership with buyers in their vehicle purchase. We aim to raise the bar for the industry not only in quality off the showroom floor, but after years of driving as well.” The new account is expected to bring in, $7.2 million in personal income, $24 million in business accounts and $3.2 million in taxes, as well as create the equivalent of 276 full-time jobs locally. A workforce of about 85 to 125 of the International Longshoremen’s Association Local 1291 are responsible for unloading the vessels, Boise Butler, Local 1291 president, and port authority board member, said “It’s very substantial,” he said. “On the average, it’s going to work out to two vessels a week and that’s putting to work approximately 100 people. That’s huge.” “It helps certainly longshoreman and it helps people who are trying to become longshoreman because we have people we are able to hire on occasion,” Martin Mascuilli, secretary and treasurer, added. Local 1291 workers unload the cars

tomers have come to expect that Hyundai vehicles will measure up to the best in the industry,” Frank Ferrara, Hyundai’s executive vice president of corporate planning

Hit with a brick A group of teens jumped another in Newbold, striking him in the back of the head with a brick, in an attempt to steal his bicycle. About six 15- to 16-year-olds approached the 15-year-old as he was riding along Snyder Avenue near 15th Street at 8:48 p.m. Aug. 19, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. As one threw a punch at him, the others blocked his escape. When he hopped off the bike, the six began punching him and one grabbed the bike. The boy held on to the tire, but was slammed in the back of the head with a brick by one of the teens. When the group noticed the boy bleeding from the blow to his head, they fled without the bike. The victim was transported by medic to Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, where he was treated and released, Tolliver said. Members of the group were described as being about 5-foot-4 and thin with dark complexions; two were described as wearing white T-shirts, one a black shirt and another a red polo shirt. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-686-3013.

Bad connection An 88-year-old family-owned bakery in Passyunk Square was burglarized after business hours last week and entry is believed to have been gained through an adjoining property that is under construction. Termini Bros. was locked up for the night at 9:20 p.m. Aug. 19, but the following morning its owners discovered their bakery at 1523 S. Eighth St. had been broken into, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The property next door, which is connected to Termini Bros. via the basement, is undergoing renovations, Tolliver said. Surveillance video showed an unidentified man, about age 40 and wearing a black shirt, black jean shorts and white sneakers with black stripes, entering via the neighboring property. In the basement, a large amount of copper piping was missing along with $8 from smashed register, Tolliver said.

News continued from page 8 from the approximately 12-story vessel and transport them to an 85-acre autofinishing facility that Philly Ro-Ro Partners obtained in October ’09 at Pier 98, Columbus Boulevard and Oregon Avenue, where Teamsters Local 107 prepare the vehicles for delivery. The port authority chipped in $1 million toward capital improvements for the Pier 98 Annex facility while Philly Ro-Ro Partners contributed $3.7 million to upgrades along with transforming the automobile-handling center, which was ready a few weeks prior to the first shipment. The facility consists of two storage lots — the Whiskey and Savage Yards — where cars are parked while awaiting processing, Vogt said. Global Auto Processing Services employed 22 and has hired 200 Teamsters for the facility. “The entire facility with the exception of the structures themselves were upgraded,” he said noting new car washes, paint and body shops and mechanical lifts. Preparation includes taking off the tape and oil that prevents scratches, washing the vehicles and possibly installing an item such as a special radio or spoiler, Mascuilli said. “It’s a nice project,” he said. “It’s a great thing to have for everyone in Philadelphia.”

Upon completion of inspection, the cars will be transported by truck or sometimes rail to dealerships mainly along the East Coast, but also in the Midwest, Blackburn said. Hyundai has more than 800 dealerships nationwide. Other recent deals for the port authority include M-real, a Finland-based paper company, that began importing May 7 into Piers 78 and 80, Sea Star Line, LLC, which transports to the Caribbean, brings in cargo each Friday to the Northeast’s Tioga Marine Terminal and Southport Marine Terminal project, Blackburn said. The port authority is now in the process of finding a bidder to embark on Southport, the first major expansion in the past 50 years, and hopes to have it operating by year’s end. “It’s a nice piece of business,” he said of Hyundai. “It’s something we worked hard for. Like many other businesses, we’ve had some tough years recently. This is one of the new businesses that we’ve gotten this year that will help us turn things around.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Amanda Snyder at asnyder@southphillyreview.com or ext. 117.

KENDALL continued from page 1 ing her grit by conducting a lemonade fundraiser in front of the Superfresh, 1851 S. Columbus Blvd. Along with friend Jennifer Leonard, Kendall, East Moyamensing Avenue and Reed Street, peddles the drink to benefit the work of the American Liver Foundation’s Delaware Valley chapter. She and Leonard, of the 700 block of Porter Street, are offering the refreshment — $1 for a small or $2 for a large — from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. through Aug. 31. Their goal for the 11-day venture is to provide people with awareness of the most common chronic blood borne infection in the United States. For Kendall, it’s another exclamation of her will. “My strength comes from my spirit. My spirit drives me,” she said during the fundraiser’s kickoff. All of the proceeds will go to the America Liver Association, now in its 34th year of operation. Donning a hat that matched the hue of her commodity, Kendall chatted about the pride with which she makes the drink and the joy with which she greets every day. “I buy 20 pounds of lemons and five pounds of sugar,” she said of enjoying one of her favorite pastimes. “Sometimes making the lemonade keeps me from going to bed until 5 a.m.” When she wakes, she does so with the intent not to let her illness destroy her appreciation for her chance at being a “beacon of hope.” “I am a soldier on the move for hep-C causes,” she said while passing a drawing of her and her three grandchildren that says “Love Never Fails But Our Bodies Do. Get the Facts.” Those facts include that hepatitis C, according to a Sept. 2009 report by the Pennsylvania Department of Health Services, plagues more than four million in the United States and that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention expect hepatitis C related deaths related to the disease double or triple in the next 15 to 20 years. Injection drug use constitutes 60 percent of U.S. cases, according to the CDC, with 15 percent of cases attributable to sexual exposure to the virus. THOUGH KENDALL SAID the behavior from her youth was not model, her contracting of the disease is a result of a 1991 blood transfusion. According to the CDC, transfusions account for 10 percent of U.S. infections and before ’92, no reliable screen-

ing process for hepatitis C was available. Kendall said not enough attention goes toward educating people. “It’s funny how God answers prayers,” she said of her last huge fundraiser, a 2005 event through the Philadelphia Fire Department. To pull it off, she had to contact numerous agencies and hotels before her message won favor. “My situation back then reminds me of what the Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Joseph went through when trying to find a place for her to give birth to Jesus,” she said. Even today she encounters negation more often than affirmation, attributing stigmas around her malady to her difficulty in teaching. “Why does it take a celebrity coming down with a disease to draw attention to it?” she asked as Sam Cooke’s “A Change is Gonna Come” served as the welcoming tune for her customers. To those with whom she most interacts, Kendall has become a mini-celebrity. “She takes care of others before she takes care of herself,” Leonard said of her friend, who has upped her vegetable intake, eliminated coffee and cut back on salt to ease her pain. “Sheila always

wants to help.” Her body, however, is not always able to help. “I’m like an Energizer battery most days, but I tire,” Kendall said, alluding to the fatigue that is one of the symptoms of chronic hepatitis C. A devout churchgoer, she has found comfort in bringing others to Mass, regularly attending Stella Maris, 2901 S. 10th St. “I am never afraid of the struggle,” she said of battling her main ailment and congestive heart failure. “I just wish we could get more notice. We’re talking with people outside, which is great, but I want to be inside.” Her open-air interactions resulted in compliments for her handiwork and fortitude. “It’s good,” Terry Koway of 11th and Ellsworth streets said. “It has just enough sweetness, and it’s very refreshing. It’s also for a great cause.” To draw folks, Kendall uses a sign that reads “Lemonade so good it will make you jump up and slap your Momma or Daddy.” Though she cannot trace the origin of her slogan, Kendall knows from where she derives her will. She credits her team

of medical personnel at Jefferson University Hospital, whom she sees every few months for blood work and liver cancer screenings, and her heavenly father for pulling her through. “I lost a cousin to hep-C recently. I took her to Mass a little before she passed, but she had reservations because she was Islamic,” Kendalll said. “I told her not to worry about differences and just to believe.” Belief in her work means that whatever time she has left will be filled with blessings. “As long as we get the word out there, we will be alright,” Kendall, whose doctors have not given a definitive prognosis on her life expectancy, said. She wishes for anyone looking to help her to make lemonade or to place an order to call 267-636-2582. “I want to be seen as someone who paved the way for other people. Before I say ‘good night’ here and ‘good morning’ over there, I want to be ready for God to say ‘Come on in, you fought a good fight, you won, and I have a crown for you,’” she said.

A local basketball coach uses his skills to earn a spot among the top-100 finalists of a hit CBS reality show. By Jess Fuerst Review Contributor

very reality TV fan has had the moment where they think, “I could do that.” Christian Ross, of 10th and Catharine streets, had that thought and did something about it. “I watched the past like five seasons [of “Survivor”] and I always wanted to apply. I applied for [season] 19 and I didn’t make it. And then I wanted to apply for 20, then they used the same people and recasted for 21 and 22,” Ross, 23, said. Ross has made the top-100 finalists for the casting of Season 22, which is to be filmed back-to-back with the already-in-production Season 21 in Nicaragua. For the next leg of his audition process, Ross will be traveling to New York for a face-to-face interview with producers. “In February, I got confirmation letters, e-mails, things in the mail. I have to go do an audition the 21st of September at CBS broadcasting in New York,” Ross said. “Type my name in Google. One day someone typed ‘Christian Ross Survivor’ and all these things came up about how I might be on Season 22. It’s crazy.” Ross filled out the online application and sent in his video for Season 19, but he didn’t make the cut. He repeated the process for seasons 21 and 22, knowing that he was the perfect contestant.

LIFESTYLES continued from page 14 “I study the game and watch the game. Basically, I have a lot of characteristics that would be really good out on the island,” Ross said. The CBS reality show strands 20 cast members in a remote location and has them compete in a series of challenges while voting off individuals until there is a Sole Survivor — who wins $1 million. Through the 20 aired seasons of the American version, players have formed alliances, betrayed partnerships and lied their way to the top. “Should I give some spoilers? I’m conniving, backstabbing — cause you are competing for a million — and also manipulative,” Ross said. “I’m not going to make friends. If I did, that would be great. I don’t really want to be friends with anybody.”

Though his strategy may seem harsh, the local basketball coach is not all trash talk and veiled intentions. If he brings home the top prize — which he is sure will be the case — he plans to share the wealth. “I will definitely give back a little to the community. Since they gave me a little bit, it’d be nice to give some back,” Ross, who has resided in Bella Vista his whole life, said. “And I want to open up a business, some sort of business on the side.” Ross lives in his childhood home, where he grew up attending Annunciation BVM, 1159 Wharton St., and St. John Neumann, formerly at 2600 Moore Street. Attending one year at Temple University, Ross has continued his own education and gotten a job coaching a seasonal basketball league at Palumbo Recreation Center, 725 S. 10th St. “I love to coach, love the sport and then I know all about the sport, too,” Ross, who

coaches ages 15 and under, said. “Coming up with my own scheme — kind of like what I’m going to do out there [on Survivor].” Ross is a South Philadelphian, something he hopes to bring to a national audience on T.V. “Ya, pretty much soon as they see my name and see my place, of course, people will know where I’m from. I love where I’m from,” Ross said. “I’m going out there for the experience and for winning. I’ll get to meet the people and meet the cast and try and win at the same time. I’m gong to try and put Philly on the map.” Relying on his strength, athleticism and ability to manipulate relationships, Ross is unconcerned about the location and lack of modern amenities. “It’s going to be in Nicaragua, and I’m definitely excited to be getting out of the country. It could be scary being out in the wild,” Ross, who has not spent time living out of a city, said. However, when asked if

This will be the first time he has been so far and so disconnected from his family, though he knows he won’t have any trouble coping with the new lifestyle if he keeps his eyes on the prize. “No, I’m not really worried about being away from my family at all,” Ross said. “I’m pretty sure they are going to miss me, but they saw I have a goal, I want to set a goal. I want to do this. “I have one brother, one sister and they’re rooting for me. My parents, friends, everyone is rooting for me.” SPR

Cardella

By Tom Cardella Columnist

Ground Zero controversy

et’s get a couple of things straight right off about the controversy of building of a mosque at Ground Zero. First, it is not a mosque, but an Islamic community center that includes not only a place for Muslims to pray, but an ecumenical site that is open to serving all residents of the Lower Manhattan area. Second, the center is not being built at Ground Zero, but a couple of blocks from the site in a former Burlington Coat Factory abandoned building. Third, according to media reports, there are already several mosques in the surrounding area as well as a liquor store and porn shop. Fourth, American Muslims have been living in the area for about 27 years. Fifth, American Muslims also were among the 3,000 who died on 9/11. Sixth, our laws guarantee not only freedom of religion, but the right of owners to build on private property. Some argue, as has President Obama, that there is a difference between having the right to build an Islamic center and the “wisdom” of building it near Ground Zero. Who gets to make that determination? Is it the White House, Fox News, Sarah Palin or the local zoning board? If it’s the local zoning board, then it has already been given the go ahead. Perhaps it is not too much to expect that Congress can concentrate on passing legislation to help the first responders on 9/11 and funding additional security for New York City. If the right to build the center is trumped by those who believe we are at war with all of Islam, then First Amendment rights mean nothing at all. Another thing about those odious analogies that are being passed around by folks such as Newt Gingrich; He compared the building of the Islamic center near Ground Zero to allowing Nazis to protest next to the Holocaust Museum. Comparing law-abiding American Muslims to Nazis is as incredibly over-the-top as calling the President Imam Obama. Oh, you say Rush Limbaugh already did that? Gingrich is a history scholar, but he needs to be reminded that years ago the courts granted American Nazis the right to march down the streets of Skokie, Ill., despite the understandable protests from Holocaust survivors residing in that town.The Nazis wound up not marching, but the legal precedent was set nevertheless. And let’s be very clear, I sympathize with the discomfort of some of the 9/11 families, as well as those Holocaust survivors residing in Skokie, but defending unpopular causes is a necessary a by-product of our freedom.

Some folks argue, “Wouldn’t it be easier for the site to built somewhere else? Why would these American Muslims want to build where they are not wanted?” I heard the same argument when blacks were given the right to eat at the same lunch counters as whites in the South. Why couldn’t they just eat in their own restaurants? I thought we had already answered that question, more than 40 years ago. Incidentally, polls of residents in Lower Manhattan, by a large majority, have no problem with the center being located there. Why should we let outsiders trump the will of local residents? I don’t profess to being able to predict what message our national debate is sending to Muslims around the world. Sometimes we get too concerned about how others perceive us when we should be more concerned about being true to our own principles. I also am concerned that the kind of hysteria being whipped up today about American Muslims is similar to the hysteria that led FDR to force Japanese-Americans into internment camps during World War II. I still remember my Italian-American father telling me he and other Italian-Americans working as welders at the Navy Yard during World War II were viewed suspiciously by some because Italy was part of the Axis we were fighting. Can we calm down before we find ourselves repeating a shameful period of our history? Some argue Muslim countries don’t worry about tolerating other religions so why should we? Why? We are not those countries. Our soldiers have shed blood so that we wouldn’t be like those countries. We have every right to expect American Muslims to abide by our culture of tolerance just like the rest of us, but please stop the hypocrisy. It means you — Mitt Romney. How can Romney come out against the building of the Islamic center when the same kind of bigotry helped deny him, as a Mormon, the right to his party’s nomination for president in 2008? How about it, Mitt? While on the subject of hypocrisy, how can those who protest to get the Federal Government off our back, then turn around and call for federal interference into New York City’s business? Whatever happened to their belief in strict adherence to the Constitution? These people want to change the Fourteenth Amendment and have lobbied for various other amendments to the Constitution every time it suits their political needs. At best, these politicians are Cafeteria Conservatives. There are Muslims praying every week 100 feet from the other “Ground Zero” — inside the Pentagon — without controversy. The group wanting to build the center are Sufi Muslims, the most liberal and ecumenical of the various Muslim sects, and the head Imam at the center has been invited to the White House by both Republican and Democratic presidents because of his stance against terrorism. What is the current controversy really all about? SPR Comment at www.southphillyreview.com/opinion/cardella.

On the big screen

Happy hours

Tareq (Alexander Siddig), left, and Juliette (Patricia Clarkson) hit it off as a couple while touring the town in “Cairo Time.”

By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

ou’d think Patricia Clarkson would be the main attraction in “Cairo Time,” seeing as this sweet, simple, elegant film is the first in which the infallible indie queen is the front-and-center star. But you’d be wrong. As Juliette, a magazine editor whose couple’s vacation in Cairo becomes a onewoman show when her UN-ambassador husband (Tom McCamus) is held up in Gaza, Clarkson gives her sleepiest performance, overly devoting herself to the subtlety of the material. Stunning in every colorful, tailored dress she dons, the 50-year-old actress has never looked hotter, but the fire her fans adore is missing. The real draw here is the setting, a beautiful place that’s rarely examined on the big screen. Syrian-Canadian writer/director Ruba Nadda does for Cairo what Sofia Coppola did for Tokyo in “Lost in Translation”: She shares her intimate love for the city so poetically, it beckons you to visit or, at the very least, convinces you to love it, too. Gorgeous and with no need for embellishment, the lensing by Luc Montpellier provides a few of the year’s finest compositions and, as Juliette explores her surroundings, we join her, taking in both the majestic sights and the less attractive, hard truths of the ancient metropolis. Clarkson’s co-star is the gifted Alexander Siddig (“Syriana”), who plays Tareq, a friend and former employee of Juliette’s husband. Tareq agrees to host Juliette during her stay and, in a development that sneaks up on both of them, the characters fall into a quiet romance.

Nadda presents Tareq’s and Juliette’s relationship with the gentleness of a breeze, limiting the dialogue to only what must be said and offering sexy, restrained gestures (the sharing of a hookah, picture-taking on the Nile). “Cairo Time” is a star-crossed romance begging for a bit more from its star, but its vistas and light touch are well-worth experiencing.

uacamole is great, but there has got to be more to the avocado. The deceptive green sphere (it routinely is thought of as a vegetable, but it’s really a fruit), can find a home in any type of dish. Sliced on a sandwich or served atop a salad, it adds a creamy, unique flavor. Karen Griffith of the 100 block of Mifflin Street likes to spice things up with this cool customer in her Spicy Avocado Dip. Bring in a bag of chips or cut-up vegetables and add a little heat to your next barbecue. SPR

Spicy Avocado Dip INGREDIENTS:

2 medium ripe avocados, peeled with pits removed 1/4 cup of chopped scallions 1 envelope of ranch salad dressing and dip mix, preferably Good Seasons 1 tablespoon of lime juice 1/2 teaspoon of ground red pepper

DIRECTIONS:

Mash the avocados with a fork until smooth. Add the e remaining ingredients s and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for one hour. Serve with crackers, ers, chips or vegetables.

Besides burgers, brews and fries, the menu at Center City Grille also features a variety of salads and sandwiches. S ta f f P h o t o b y G r e g B e z a n i s

On my solo visit with Jim, the Caesar salad ($9) was cool and crisp. No rusty romaine here. I particularly liked the homemade croutons. Powdered Parmesan was sprinkled on top. Jim and I sampled the stuffed mushrooms ($9). They were lukewarm and swimming in a greasy pool of oil, butter and water. They were stuffed with spinach and topped with cheese and bread crumbs. The soup of the day ($5) was wild mushroom prepared with fungi grown in Kennett Square. It was so hot that I had to sip my iced tea before I tasted it. This fine potage was heady and rich and took me back to the mushroom soup made famous by Friday, Saturday, Sunday. My BLT ($7) was served on thick slices of toasted farmhouse white bread. Applewood smoked bacon was layered with American cheese, sliced ripe tomato and red leaf lettuce. Fries came with it.

Unfortunately, Jim’s classic club sandwich ($9) was made with salty processed turkey. Still, it was jumbo and satisfied his appetite. His lunch came with chips. Service on all visits was courteous and always with a smile. The Center City Grille & Lounge keeps long hours, especially on weekends when pub crawlers arrive for a bite to eat, a beer and maybe some dancing.

smoked bacon, tomatoes, creamy avocado tossed in a homemade ranch dressing. My sister, who did not order a salad, immediately stuck her fork into my plate. We both agreed on the eye and taste appeal here. Edward’s house salad ($6) was not your run-of-the-mill mix of iceberg, mesclun, cucumber and carrot. It was a mound of fresh greens, romaine, tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion and blue cheese topped in a homemade blue cheese dressing. Both were generous enough to share, so our server brought a plate for Sandy. Burgers ($11) were big and juicy. A mound of seared medium-rare ground sirloin was served on a soft roll (could be Le Bus or Metropolitan) with slightly sweet caramelized onions, a choice of cheese (we opted for cheddar), a slice of red ripe tomato, lettuce and a kosher dill. The french fries — among the best I’ve sampled in a while— were crisp, piping hot, free of grease and only required a sprinkling of salt. The Reuben ($10) was served closed and not open-faced. Edward ate it with a knife and fork. He is the only person I know who eats a Reuben in this nutty manner. He also eats french fries with a fork. I don’t think he likes eating with his hands as I do. Anyway, the corned beef was not Jewish deli style. It was dry and way too lean. Make sure you ask for unsweetened iced tea ($2.25). I asked for iced tea and it was loaded with sugar. The waiter did not know both teas were available.

always keep a reporter’s notebook in my handbag. If I happen upon a new restaurant, I whip out my journal and write down the particulars. This happened last month while strolling by The Center City Grille & Lounge just off 20th and Market streets. I took home a menu. After several days of brutal heat and eating cold foods at home, I decided to go to an early Saturday night dinner. My sister Sandy was visiting for a long weekend and I instinctively knew there were a number of dishes that would please her picky palate. The interior is high tech decked out in black leather sofas, comfortable high back black chairs and silver tables. The staff is welcoming, young and friendly. A waiter pushed a few tables together so we could watch the Phillies. At first glance, you might think this is the kind of place for a burger and a beer. But the menu also offers well-prepared fresh salads and soups. Since prices are so reasonable, I made a return solo lunch visit and met my friend Jim, the financial planner. Sandy, Edward and I settled in. Edward sipped a Yards BTL ($5) that came with a cold frosty Pilsner glass while Sandy and I nursed small martinis ($9.50). Much care went into the preparation of salads. The Southwestern ($9) was a composed salad like a Nicoise. It contained fresh cool greens, roasted sweet corn, tiny black beans, crisp bits of Applewood

When talking seasonal ingredients capable of headlining at the table, look no further than those ripe and juicy tomatoes. Hurry up and buy some before fall arrives. By Phyllis Stein-Novack Food Columnist

eorge and Ira Gershwin wrote a catchy ditty called “I Love a Piano.” I especially enjoy the song when crooned by Michael Feinstein, who worked with Ira Gershwin toward the end of his rich long life, as he tinkles the ivories. I wish someone would write a song called “I Love a Tomato.” I eat them in season because neither Florida nor California can grow them during the winter months.They taste like cardboard. Israel got it right, however. Tomatoes grown in Israel are as fine as ones from Pennsylvania and New Jersey. A favorite summer lunch is a thick slice of tomato, sprinkled with kosher salt and served between two slices of good artisan bread. It can be whole wheat, seven-grain, sourdough or a French farmhouse boule. The tomato is the star of the sandwich. Teardrop tomatoes are cute and fun to eat. They can be red, orange or yellow. Toss them into a salad and you will be in for a real treat. They’re sold by the pint or quart. Some merchants are selling tomatoes for $3.99 a pound. This is outrageous. I simply compare prices and research the inventory. Gone are the days when they went for 99 cents a pound. Allow tomatoes to ripen on your window sill or in a bowl on your kitchen counter. Never store them in the refrigerator. You can chill them for an hour or two before serving.

‘Winning Drexel Hill is deﬁnitely our biggest accomplishment so far. We want to think this is only the beginning.’ -Coach Ken Bergmann

Wee win!

Local tykes based at 18th and Johnston finished first year of competitive ball with two tournament titles. By Joseph Myers r e v i e w s ta f f w r i t e r

onventional wisdom states good things come to those who wait. This year’s Delaware Valley Senators proved that prosperity can likewise visit those whom fate has not given a lengthy delay. The team’s 7- and 8-year-olds began what they hope will be a prolonged relationship with success, capturing a pair of tournament crowns and finishing as runners-up in their 12-team league. Together since December, the squad conducted scrimmages in March, with competition beginning a month later. From April through July, its dozen members, who play their home games at Barry Playground, 18th and Johnston streets, compiled a 39-6 mark. With one exception, the boys reside in South Philadelphia, and most call the Whitman section home. Coach Ken Bergmann, a Whitman resident, constructed the team mostly through word of mouth and enlisted Neumann-Goretti coach Lou Spadaccini to assist in preparing the youngsters for their first taste of fast-pitch competition. “There was an application fee for registering a team, and parents raised the money,” Bergmann said of lumping his unit, which included his 8-year-old son Deen, into a league that contained a Port Richmond team, as well as representatives from Delaware County and New Jersey. “All of the guys came right from a T-ball league and were looking to emulate their older brothers and cousins[on the 10- and 12-year-old teams].” When winter practices near NeumannGoretti’s field at 26th and Moore streets yielded to live contests, Bergmann and Spadaccini’s troops began a journey that could lead to district play and a shot at the Little League World Series. “As the season approached, we expected to compete and just have fun, but the kids had something else in mind,” Spadaccini, whose 7-year-old son Nicky offered his talents to the team, said. That “something else” included a march through the Tri-State Elite League —

based out of Sewell, N.J. — and distinction as champions of the Memorial Day Voorhees Tournament and July’s Drexel Hill Tournament. “Winning Drexel Hill is definitely our biggest accomplishment so far,” Bergmann said earlier this month as the team enjoyed a light practice. “We want to think this is only the beginning. At 10, they can start competing in districts, and two years later they could be in Williamsport for the Series.” IF THE BOYS, who all play multiple positions, need to make the 180-mile trek to the site of the Little League World Series, they will simply be continuing an established life of travel. They have made numerous trips to Delaware County and South Jersey, locations where they have formed strong rivalries, and a stop in Allentown. “With travel, we often have 14-hour days,” Bergmann noted. Such durations have only intensified the bonds that the boys have started at school and on the field. “I love the travel,” 8-year-old Gaetan Grandelli, of Front and Ritner streets, said. “Allentown was really fun.” Grandelli has a brother on a 12-year-old team and aspires to be like him. “That doesn’t surprise me,” Bergmann said. “These guys think the 12-year-olds are gods.” With their success, perhaps the younger brothers could be minor deities. “I’ve coached and played a long time around here, and I’ve never been around kids like these, who truly epitomize what South Philly is all about,” Lou Spadaccini said. “We all work hard together,” Nicky Spadaccini, of the 2600 block of South Iseminger Street, added. “We’re like brothers.” The younger Spadaccini’s attitude has infected the team so much that every member expects to return next year. For 7-yearold Gavin Verbitski, being back will mean continuing to improve his reactions to live pitching. “I like hitting normal pitches more than hitting off a tee,” the resident of Front and Jackson streets said.

Eight of the 12 sluggers who made up this year’s Delaware Valley Senators show their megawatt smiles after practicing at Barry Playground. p h o t o b y n ata l i e k e l l e m

“Fast pitches are much more fun,” Deen Bergmann said. “The faster they come in, the faster they go out.” “We’re readying them for the next level, whatever that is,” Bergmann said. “If they want to play for Lou [at Neumann-Goretti], they know what they’ll need to do.” For his vision, Bergmann has earned Spadaccini’s praise and respect. “Ken deserves the credit for his commitment and dedication to these kids and their families,” the former St. John Neumann and Temple University slugger said.

BASEBALL CAMP

Neumann-Goretti is hosting a baseball hitting and fielding camp on Sept 11 to 12 for ages 7 to 13. There is an $85 early registration fee. The cost is $85. Call Lou Spadaccini, 267-738-0717.

PALUMBO FALL SPORTS

Palumbo Recreation Center, 10th and Fitzwater streets, is accepting registration for its NFL flag football and in-house

With just the right amount of South Philadelphia bravado, Bergmann and Spadaccini’s players have started their careers on winning notes. The fall will have them playing football and soccer, but winter workouts will soon be upon them. Spadaccini knows they will be ready. “These kids will never back down. They’ll play anybody anywhere. They’ll play on a rooftop if they have to. ” Spadaccini said. SPR Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

Aug. 17 he Iggles waved good by to the much-loved (yet due to go) Brian Westbrook as he packed up his belongings and headed to sunny California to join San Fransisco. Westbrook, whose bumps and brusies sidelined the former Pro Bowler for eight games last season, joins the 49ers after looking at many teams this off-season since his spot on the Eagles was slowly closing in on him. Westbrook is one of the smartest, most selfless and dignified players I’ve watched go through... SPR

Au revoir

Valerie Morrison

Aug. 23 t’s been a wonderful few years talking with you, South Philadelphia. We had a World Championship and our usual ups and downs, but like most things, this is coming to an end. I am handing over the duties of blogging about the players, games and characters that come through this fine city to someone new. And probably someone who knows a heck of a lot more than I do. But, let’s be real. This was never about how much I knew or didn’t know. Sports isn’t really about the line-up card or the stat sheet or the player trades. It’s about enjoying the game and all the memories that go along with being a Philadelphia sports fan. I won’t be posting my thoughts here any
