ith her Halloween due date approaching, Rachel Howe knows her heart and home will readily welcome her fourth child. She also cherishes having acquaintances who will laud the birth as yet another means to foster communal camaraderie. As members of the South Philly Parents Resource Center, they have devoted the last 16 months to offering online resources, support groups and workshops as confidence boosters to those with young children. “We have sought to create a strong sense of unity,” Howe, the president of the soonto-be nonprofit, said Tuesday of desiring to have peers give books some competiSee RESOURCE CENTER page 8

hough an accomplished martial artist, Zahed Aryadarei might soon find himself persuaded to deliver lines instead of blows. The versatile figure will join wife Shannon Aryadarei and their three children as participants in “This Town Is a Mystery,”

an element of the 16th annual Philadelphia Live Arts Festival and the newest piece from Headlong Dance Theater, 1170 S. Broad St., Sept. 7 to 22. The Aryadareis will execute their eight-performance run within their Newbold home and will examine diversity, family cohesion and the patriarch’s brushes with persecution. “At first, I was anxious about telling my story,” Zahed Aryadarei, a native of Tehran,

Word on the Street

What do you think about Mayor Michael Nutter’s response after the alleged offenders in OfďŹ cer Moses Walker’s homicide were captured? “I agree with him. Anytime you take a human life, it is wrong. Not that I agree with all his policies, but we are on the same page this time.â€? Joe Molinaro, 15th Street and Snyder Avenue

“I feel he was right for what he said. It was well said at the right time. I personally feel they should rot in jail also because of what they did to that police officer.� Christina Lewis, 18th and Mifflin streets

“I agree with the mayor. This is not the first time he has said something like this and I like him for it.� Kevin Allen, Broad and Porter streets

“I am not for the whole eye-foran-eye thing. Obviously, he was heated at the time, but I do not think that was very professional. It is too candid of a statement.� Tara Reichenberg, Broad and Porter streets Interviews and Photos by Kathryn Poole Comment at southphillyreview.com/opinion/word-on-the-street. So u t h

For the love of Papa Lou To the Editor: Louis E. Marchetti Sr. is the husband of Debra Rosa Marchetti, the loving father of eight children, and grandfather to 25 beautiful grandchildren. Some know him as Louie while others refer to him as Papa Lou. A lot of people know him from City Pizza, 100 Snyder Ave. Most people know him as the man who tells everyone how extremely blessed he is with the love of his family and how proud he is of the individual bonds he has with each and every single one of his children and grandchildren. On June 2, the Marchetti family faced news that Lou has stomach cancer. He underwent surgery to remove his entire stomach. Lou’s cancer is a stage 4, which means it is treatable, but not curable. Lou was the sole provider for his household and now that he is undergoing chemotherapy and radiation treatments, he is unable to work. With that being said, our family came up with a plan to hold a small benefit to raise enough money to get the family by until Lou was able to get back on his feet. On Aug. 26, our hearts melted due to the overwhelming support of many family members, friends and neighbors who came to the Love for Lou benefit. More than 150 people came to honor Lou and to support the family in their time of need. Instead of mourning an illness, we celebrated the fact that he was never going to fight alone. Adults, teens, kids and babies all came together and went “Blue for Lou.â€? Post 153 was filled with people wearing blue shirts and green wristbands in honor of one person, who somehow, someway, made a difference in every single one of their lives. The Marchetti family would like to extend its deepest and sincerest gratitude to our many supporters and sponsors. To La Stanza, City Pizza, Pesto, Popi’s, CafĂŠ Valentino, Penrose Diner, Dietz & Watson, ACME Markets and so many more, our successful outcome would not have been possible without you. Thank you to DJ Mike Pellak and jesusmovementphilly.com for your time and phenomenal service. Thank you Felicia Punzo for an amazing performance. Thank you to Reese for your light show. Thank you to Bill and Joanne for everything that you have done, and we sincerely appreciate all of it. To everyone who worked the event, donated a basket, paper products, or anything else, we cannot express how much it meant to us. Life gets hard sometimes. Everyone

endures struggles on a daily basis. No matter how big or small our problems may seem, facing them alone is a scary feeling. Seeing so many people come together on behalf of one person was just amazing. Cancer is something that doesn’t just effect the person diagnosed, it effects the entire family. Knowing that Louie is loved and respected by so many people will help him in his fight and help us know that we are not alone. In the battle of Love versus Cancer, Lou is going to win. We are glad that everyone had a good time, and cannot wait to do it again next year. Nicole Canale and Deb Rosa Marchetti South Philadelphia

Mourning for OfďŹ cer Walker To the Editor: My family and I are returning from the funeral of Officer Moses Walker Jr., who was shot and killed Aug. 18. There were many there to pay respect to Walker and his family. Although my family and I did not know him, we were moved with great compassion over the revelations pertaining

V I E W Comment at southphillyreview.com/opinion

to his character as a very caring and unselfish person. Our attendance also conveyed our belief in the many good police officers who watch over and protect the citizens of Philadelphia. Sometimes it may appear that police officers and Philadelphia’s residents are on opposite sides when it comes to justice. But Officers Walker and Lorenzo (who was killed by an intoxicated driver July 8) cleared up that falsity. My family and I attended Lorenzo’s funeral as well, because we wanted his family and fellow officers to know that we sympathize with their loss. The service for Walker was very uplifting for all of those who attended. Mayor Michael Nutter gave very moving words of wisdom and comfort. Commissioner Charles Ramsey stated “that the police department will retire Officer Moses Walker Jr’s badge.� My family and I, along with many Philadelphia residents and City administration, mourn deeply for the Walker and Lorenzo families.

Surveillance video A shooting victim refused to cooperate, attempting to flee the West Passyunk scene Friday. Police have since revealed video of the crime. A light-colored SUV traveled backwards on the 1900 block of South 20th Street — a one-way, northbound street — and pulled up to a 34-year-old, according to surveillance video the Police Public Affairs Unit released Tuesday. The passenger fired multiple shots from the vehicle plus several more at the fleeing target after stepping out of the auto. Officers heard the gunshots at 2:39 a.m. and noticed a man with a graze wound to his right shoulder sprinting east on McKean Street from the crime scene where detectives later located ballistics evidence, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Police were able to

catch the man on the 1800 block of McKean Street where he refused to cooperate with police or medics. Police transported him to Methodist Hospital, but he again declined treatment. A description of the shooter or shooters was not available at press time, To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Lifting the uplifting Police are seeking a suspect who swiped a gold-painted metal statue of Jesus from a crucifix on a Bella Vista’s church property. A caretaker at St. Mary Magdalen de Pazzi Church, 714 Montrose St., which serves as a worship site for St. Paul’s Church, 808 S. Hutchinson St., reported that the 10-by-18-inch version of the holy figure was missing from the parish’s courtyard at 10:45 a.m. Aug. 22, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. A nearby neighbor relayed she heard a loud noise at 2:50 a.m., so she looked out of her window and saw a man headed west on Montrose and then north on Eighth Street carrying a shiny object, Tolliver said. The statue is valued at $1,000. The offender was described as a man of an unknown race, tall, thin; having dark hair and wearing all black clothing.

One stabbed him in his lower left side of his back as the other rummaged through his pockets. The vandals came up emptyhanded and fled east on Cross. The victim walked to the 2300 block of Wilder Street where he met police and a medic transported him to HUP in stable condition, Tolliver said.

A West Passyunk gas station was held up last week. At 8:12 p.m. Aug. 23, two males — one armed with a black automatic firearm — entered the office at the Vince and Sons’ Gulf gas station, 2435 W. Passyunk Ave., Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The armed male demanded cash from a 36-year-old employee while his accomplice swiped a cigar box, containing $3,500, from under the counter. The two fled in an unknown direction. The armed suspect was described as black, age 23, 6 foot, thin and wearing a black T-shirt and a black wool mask while the other offender was described as black, 5-foot-6, thin and wearing a green T-shirt with blue and white stripes.

RESOURCE CENTER continued from page 1 tion for advice on how to manage one’s parental roles. “With the bonds we’ve developed so far, we feel almost like a civic association.” The resident of the 900 block of Tasker Street began the center through her participation in the Kids South of Washington Google group. Reaching 500 members daily, the latter promotes fellowship through an assortment of aids, including an expansive activities list. While Howe has enjoyed its accessibility, she felt even more outreach and programming could further perceptions of South Philly as an attractive, welcoming place for families to visit or call home. A Kids South of Washington post helped the East Passyunk Crossing inhabitant to land interested parties, and operations began in April 2011 with a couples activity touching on retaining balance in one’s life once parenthood commences. “We are not necessarily trying to say people should do things particular ways,” Howe, who, along with husband Larry, is rearing Marley, 15; Dylan, 5; and Joey Rose, 2. “We just want people to network and never find their new identity overwhelming.” Nearly 400 local households with diverse cultural and socioeconomic compositions have aligned themselves with the center’s mission to give parents options when pondering childbirth, childcare and education, both their own and their youngsters’ imminent schooling. With her social work background, Amanda Kimmel found the idea of facilitating groups irresistible and led the first new moms meetings in the spring of ’11 shortly after she and husband Bill Cohen welcomed their son Milo. “I really enjoy helping others to situate themselves in the parenting community,” Kimmel, the center secretary and resident of the 800 block of Cantrell Street, said. Her six-week session occurred at Columbus Square Recreation Center, 1300 S. 12th St., which has come to serve as the hub for additional activities, including subsequent matriarchal interaction such as a Working Moms congregation and a Moms of Two gathering. “We always discuss issues that matter most and essentially see everyone as a teacher and a student,” Kimmel said. Howe noted at least seven mother groups have assisted fertile females but stressed parents remain the center’s focus. “We’d be guilty of a misnomer otherwise,” she said with a laugh. Male participation has increased, with fathers constituting a sizable portion of the center’s adherents and Facebook group members. As many run their own businesses and follow flexible schedules, they often

Members of the Working Moms Support Group brought their bundles of joy to Columbus Square Recreation Center earlier this summer.

seek additional ways to better their approach to adoring their offspring and fraternizing with their peers. Such a hankering for immersion compelled Brian Savage to help to organize Aug. 9’s movie night. “The members want the responsibility of sharing what they have,” the husband to Catharine and sire of three children said. “It could be something as simple as giving a tip on a pediatrician or as intricate as discussing education.” Like his center colleagues, the resident of the 1200 block of Titan Street has tackled that larger matter with gusto, as the natural flow of time soon will find his kin and theirs continuing or beginning their scholarly days. “The center’s whole aim is to help the neighborhood and that includes its education system,” he said. “It takes a bunch of voices to determine what will work best for each household depending on its needs.” THOUGH IT GLADLY embraces differences, the center attracted Jessica Noel because of powerful similarities she noticed among its constituents. The Texas native settled in South Philly four years ago and resides on the 200 block of Manton Street with husband John Noel and 2-year-old

son Singer. “Among Rachel, [vice president] Samantha [Slade], [list moderator] Tammy [Bradshaw] and others, I have found many like-minded figures who believe, among other things, in cloth diapering and nursing their babies,” the Pennsport dweller, who learned of the center four months after delivering Singer, said. “I find it really cool that Rachel has done so much to broaden the understanding of what is out there for expecting or current parents. Having the information would have made a huge difference when I was pregnant.” That Noel touched on timeliness in her estimation dovetails perfectly with the center’s most recent push to incorporate and spread its message that parenting is far more rewarding than daunting and much more empowering when discussed with contemporaries. “We’re eager to meet more people who covet knowledge and who realize strong communities depend on the exchange of ideas,” Howe said. In addition to the assorted mother assemblages, including a Working Moms Book Group, she and her allies have also recently facilitated a toddler nutrition workshop and Aug. 16’s Dads’ Night Out. Their de-

sire for inclusivity will likely thrive in the fall, as they are planning outreach to single mothers and same-sex partners and are hoping to construct a babywearing workshop, a car seat safety tutorial and a bilingual playdate to inform Spanish speakers of means to better knowledge of the vast amount of amenities in South Philly and beyond. They are using an aggressive fundraising campaign, which received boosts through the movie night and pizza celebration and July 25’s event at Rita’s Water Ice, 1356 E. Passyunk Ave., to accumulate more outlets for outreach, all in the name of building their tiny yet notable universe of committed caregivers. “As parents, we accumulate so many responsibilities, so the center provides a great place to turn for meeting people,” Noel said. With her latest bundle of joy scheduled to arrive in two months, Howe knows the addition will receive ample love. “We are a great mixture of voices,” she said. “We are granola with a bit of an edge.” SPR Visit southphillyparents.org.

LIVE ARTS continued from page 1 2000 two years after their initial meeting through his sister, learned of the 19-yearold theater through a Review article (“Diving Headlong,” Feb. 2) that expressed Headlong’s desire to explore the rampant lack of knowledge of one’s neighbors plaguing the City of Brotherly Love. “My motivation was trying to help the theater to find out what goes on in homes as a way to help citizens appreciate one another more,” the mother said after she and her relatives had completed their final rehearsal. “I also wanted to give my children something for the summer other than sports or camp.” The Aryadareis and more than 40 other households submitted applications, with good news coming for the locals and three more entrants in the spring. Headlong tabbed the winners “citizen dancers” to reflect their amateur identity and commenced rehearsals in May. “I began by asking ‘Who lives here?’ and wondered how I could dissolve perceptions we might have about others,” codirector Andrew Simonet, who helped to devise the project two years ago, said. The former Bella Vista resident and his colleagues sought an intimate investigation of city life, so placing action within residences struck them as a poignant move. In the Aryadareis, he encountered “an honest and real family” worthy of an audience’s attention. Their selection meant the parents would receive even more occasions to display their affection for Sulaimon, 11; Sydney, 9; and Shaheen, 6, and would allow the youngsters to incorporate their frivolity and maturity, the latter resulting from their karate expertise, into their time as thespians. Headlong personalities gained enough information to devise a script that acknowledges the past and anticipates the future. “It was important to address what goes on between families — the separation, the love, the loss, everything,” Zahed Aryadarei said. “A show like this encourages people to go meet someone they might never have known about,” Simonet added. “It’s about taking risks.” THE 30-MINUTE PIECE begins with Zahed Aryadarei and his mate standing behind their kneeling offspring, who give the brood’s background through the use of binders. Once they depart, the patriarch offers a formative incident from his youth to accentuate how early in life someone can realize the sting of abuse and the severity of love, recalls his interaction with the United Kingdom’s National Front during a London dispute with proponents

In a touching scene, Shannon Aryadarei, back, discusses her children’s birth stories and offers hopes for fruitful futures. She and her husband, Zahed Aryadarei, also receive occasions to show their immense love for each other. P h o t o b y K at h r y n P o o l e

of ethnic nationalism and details the third and final hurdle on his way to tranquility. As he had a legal matter from 1996 over his head, the then-U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service detained Zahed Aryadarei following the 9/11 attacks, sending him to York, Pa., and considering his deportation.

“It was a terrible period,” he said postpractice of facing a forced fissure in his family structure. Shannon Aryadarei explains the pain by reading a letter she composed for him through which she preaches hope and resolve. “All I wanted upon news of my release was to return home and hold my children,”

her spouse said during the run-through. Throughout the performance, the children display their talents, with Sydney, a student at Girard Academic Music Program, 2136 Ritner St., making use of her singing and dancing skills before using her blue-belt knowledge to team up with Sulaimon, also a GAMP attendee, and Shaheen, a pupil at Abraham S. Jenks Academics Plus, 2501 S. 13th St., for a karate routine. “I enjoy this opportunity,” Sulaimon, who has earned black-belt distinction, said of incorporating his moves into the examination of self-belief and compassion. “I feel really close to my family, especially my brother and sister, because of it.” In addition to enhancing the siblings’ bond, the project also allows Zahed Aryadarei to strengthen his union with his partner, who is of Irish ancestry, through the letter scene and a slow dance. “Our involvement has been so romantic,” Shannon Aryadarei said of the last four months of appreciating their reliance on each other. “We’ve moved from being nervous to being excited and proud.” Though none of the family members had acted before the assignment, all has seemed natural, Shannon Aryadarei said. “The feelings are actual and help to build our strength,” the matriarch said. Interacting with her kin within their home, a place of relative calm, also has proven instructional, as it has enabled them to show their talents, including her penchant for being metaphorical glue. “I’ve been able to continue my favorite role of keeping everyone mindful of being loving, forgiving and strong,” she said. Ticket purchasers will witness not only her adoration for her family but also her love of communication. Attendees — 10 per show — are to prepare food so they can share an 80-minute dinner with the Aryadareis. Friday’s practice offered a taste of what the fraternization might yield, as Simonet and crew members bonded with their hosts over pizza. “I’m thrilled this is happening,” Zahed Aryadarei, whose own achievements include winning March’s Tang Soo Do Region 8 Championship in Elverson, Pa., said of his children’s roles. “It’s helping my kids to appreciate family and opportunity.” “Aside from our performance, the project really taps into understanding what people are going through,” his wife added. “... Every time we perform, I feel so fortunate. The scenes give me chills.” SPR For tickets, call 215-413-1318 or visit livearts-fringe.org.

A government official and former Arden apprentice takes the reigns of the theater’s board as it embarks on a year of growth. By Jess Fuerst Review Contributor

F

or six years of his life, Passyunk Square’s Brian Abernathy was a self-described “No. 2” to 1st District Councilman Frank DiCicco. Many area residents may know him in that role of the former politician’s director of policy and legislative aid, but what many do not know is that prior to a career in Philadelphia politics, Abernathy was a theater professional. “I’m one of the few [Arden Theatre Co.] apprentices not still working in theater,” Abernathy said of a position he moved to Philadelphia to take in 2000. “But it taught me life skills and professional development. It shaped how I approach my job and future jobs, being able to understand the people and manage what they do on a daily basis.” Chief of staff to the City’s Managing Director Richard Negrin, Abernathy has added another title to his résumé — one that is in line with both of his passions. “I joined the [Arden’s] board in 2006 and I’ve stayed active on the board since then. Because of government connections I can help with advocacy locally and on the state level,” Abernathy, who resides at 12th


Lifestyles gave him the task. “It meant a lot to know the founders had trust in me to lead the organization and our visions matched for the organization. I’ve turned to a lot folks for advice on the board and that they trust and believe in what I could bring all meant a tremendous amount,” he said. ABERNATHY SPENT HIS childhood moving from state to state, everywhere from Arkansas to New Mexico. Following a college education in political science and theater at South Carolina’s Coker College, Abernathy assessed his next move. “My goal as a young and idealistic person was to use theater as a means for political discourse,” Abernathy said. “I saw art as a way to challenge people to see what you could do politically.” This unique approach brought Abernathy to a think tank in Washington, D.C. The timing, which was a few years after the assassination of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin in 1995, was a frenzied one for Capitol Hill professionals, and Abernathy was hired to see if theater could play a part in the Jewish-Arab conversation. Though he dismisses his time in the nation’s capitol as not his best work, he was soon taken on as an apprentice in Philadelphia.

ence in what I am doing now. “The commercial demands [of a theater] are hard to manage. I don’t think it’s in my makeup to push and stretch the way [the Arden founders] have. But there is creativity in both theater and government. They are about solving problems. It’s just a matter of scale and how it affects people. It’s what I like to do and what I’m good at.” The Arden board seems to agree, which is why, moving into its 25th anniversary season and looking at a massive fundraising and construction project, its members have put Abernathy at the helm. Luckily, he feels right at home. “There’s a lot of theaters that come and go,” Abernathy, who also serves as board chairman for Animal Care and Control Team, said. “For the Arden to grow as quickly as it did — with the management style and staff at the Arden, and the consistency that the Arden has had, and the dedication to hiring artists is second to none. At the time the Arden opened, you couldn’t hire Philadelphia actors for every performance. The pool wasn’t there. “They helped foster a culture in Philadelphia that allows actors and artists to live and raise a family.” SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/news/lifestyles.

“The Arden gives you knowledge on how all [of the components] work together to run a company,” he said. “Amy [Murphy], Aaron [Posner] and Terry [Nolan], the three founders, taught me how to set a goal and follow through on a project — on time and on budget — and to overcome any unforeseen obstacles.” Abernathy spent his apprenticeship doing everything from fundraising to lighting to marketing. At the end, he was offered two very different positions — master electrician or a grant writing associate. His decision, it would seem, shaped the rest of his professional choices. “I chose grant writing and it was a good choice. I stayed for a year and left to work [in politics],” he said. “My original goal was to write and direct my own theater company, but I quickly realized I may not be best suited [for that role].” Politics, however, suited him nicely, and Abernathy has spent more than a decade running staff and problem-solving for multiple leaders in the city. “I found peace in it. It would be a lie if I said I don’t miss the creative aspect of the theater at times. To create an entire society from nothing is fascinating to watch. Something about it that is different than watching a film or going to see a painting,” he said. “I do feel like I can make a differ-

and Tasker streets with wife Elizabeth and their two daughters, said. “I was the vice chair of board for the development committee. And finally, I’m president this year. I was surprised and honored by this.” As the newly inaugurated president, Abernathy will helm the reigns in a time of growth and expansion for the Arden. “It’s an exciting time at the Arden since we recently purchased a building a couple doors north. It will be the Hamilton Family Arts and Education Center,” Abernathy said. “That will allow us to really take what we’ve done with children’s theater and educational programs and expand.” The new building — which Abernathy has been charged with making a reality — will be home to seven classrooms, a rehearsal hall and an 80-seat theater by next year. The $5.8 million undertaking is just kicking off. “We have not announced the public fundraising campaign, yet. We have been doing individual asks at this point. Concentrating on big donors first and then we will launch the public campaign some time in the fall,” he said. “It will be completed next year.” Being charged with making the project happen “on time and on budget,” Abernathy said he is honored his fellow board members — many of whom were already sitting members when he joined the Arden family as an apprentice 12 years ago —

egardless of how you feel about the abortion question, the level of debate recently suffered a serious decline. It wasn’t bad enough a Missouri congressman used an old wives’ tale to explain his belief that the government should force a woman to carry a pregnancy to term, even in the case of rape or incest, but then he used the argument to delegitimize the crime of rape itself. If you thought we were beyond blaming the victim because “she was asking for it,” we’re not. U.S. Rep Todd Akins, who is running for the senate in November, made remarks about rape that turned the clock back 40 years. His definition of “legitimate rape” is defined by not only the way the victim was dressed, but how her womb reacted in some mystical self-defense mechanism to prevent pregnancy. The Republican ticket reacted quickly to distance itself from Akins’ remarks, even going so far as to have vice-presidential nominee/U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan urge him to quit his Senate race. The problem for the GOP is its own platform contains views perilously close to those of Akins himself, allowing termination of a pregnancy only in the case of “forcible rape.” Ryan does not believe that rape or incest is a legitimate exception in restricting abortion. When U.S. Sen. John McCain ran for president four years ago, he was asked how he would feel if his daughter were in such a situation and he answered honestly. How would Paul Ryan or Todd Akins feel if it were their daughter? ... Augusta National Golf Club, under pressure for many years, finally agreed to admit two females: Condoleezza Rice and Darla Moore. The question has been raised whether a private club should have caved to the pressure. A private club by nature of its being private can choose its own criteria for membership. Why shouldn’t both sexes have a special place apart from the opposite sex? Certainly many private clubs restrict their membership based on gender, yet the media and general public do not view them as discriminatory. Why Is Augusta any different? Augusta is different. Like many golf clubs, it has a history of exclusion based on race and religion as well as gender. Private golf clubs have acted to keep out blacks, Jews, and Catholics at various times in the past. Excluding women was rightly seen as a continuation of overall discrimination. In the case of Augusta,

excluding otherwise qualified females became an embarrassment to sponsors and TV networks because it is the site of a prestigious golf tournament. Officials did cave to pressure. It was right that they did even if it were long overdue. ... The Republican Party has made a great deal about “class warfare.” Mitt Romney has said he will not apologize for his “success.” I am not aware that anyone has asked him for such an apology. Speaking for myself, I don’t begrudge the affluent and their wealth so long as it was not gained by screwing the less fortunate. Most of us would love to enjoy the perks of being wealthy. What we do expect is that public policy gives us and our children a fair chance to become successful and the affluent are required to pay a more fair share. Currently that is not the case. While Romney contends he paid at least 13 percent in taxes for the past 10 years, many of us not so affluent have paid a greater proportion of our income in income taxes. During the Eisenhower years, the rich paid at a 91 percent marginal rate and under Nixon, about 70 percent. We don’t believe in a time of national need and supporting two unfunded wars, it is unreasonable to expect the wealthiest among us to increase the marginal percentage paid from the current rate of 35 percent to 39 percent. And that is precisely what Romney and the Republicans don’t get. ... There seems to be an assumption on the part of some of our readers that if you support same sex marriage, it means you must yourself be a homosexual. At the same time these folks also believe by charging you with being gay, that is itself the worst thing you can say about a person. Those readers are wrong on both counts. ... We can condemn the human and financial costs of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan as being too great. We also can condemn the lack of planning going into these wars and the misleading of the American public regarding Iraq. But it should not be so difficult for some liberals to admit that, despite these continuing concerns, it is a good thing Saddam Hussein is gone, both for the Iraqi people and our own security concerns. Some liberals should not find it so tough to admit the fleeting freedom we gave the women of Afghanistan from the clutches of the Taliban was a good thing. When eventually we leave Afghanistan, having paid a terrible cost for this war, it will be especially tragic not just for the return of the Taliban but for that nation’s women to be enslaved again. What sometimes feeds the hatred of the ultra right wing in this country is some liberals’ inability to applaud any American success — even the killing of Osama bin Laden.

Bootlegging outlaws

Jack (Shia LaBeouf) is the youngest of the Bondurant brothers, who run a local moonshine business in Virginia during the Prohibition Era.

By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

“L

awless” unfolds along a very dusty stretch of Prohibitionera Virginia, and it’s peppered with cocksure symbolism like roosters pecking at each other’s necks, but there aren’t nearly enough raw and rugged touches from director John Hillcoat to break this booze-soaked drama out of a traditionalist bracket. The manly fervor is more than present among moonshine-making brothers Jack (Shia LaBeouf), Forrest (Tom Hardy), and Howard (Jason Clarke) Bondurant, and their outlaw exploits include ferocious beatdowns that stress the film’s R-rating, but if you’re looking for the same blood-and-dirt auteurism found in Hillcoat’s “The Proposition,” you’ve snuck into the wrong speakeasy. “Lawless” and “The Proposition” share the same screenwriter, multi-hyphenate Nick Cave, who, like Hillcoat, hails from Australia. Also taking on scoring duties, rocker Cave cooks up plenty of fine exchanges for a dream cast, which also includes Gary Oldman, Guy Pearce, Dane DeHaan, and starlets of the moment Jessica Chastain and Mia Wasikowska. But the plot tends to roll along more tidily than the director, actors or subject matter deserve, with the villains, damsels and antiheroes blandly abiding by some unseen Hollywood rulebook. The characterizations are, by and large, rather thin, with a terrific actor like Hardy reduced to mere grunting as the authoritative family head. The film does manage to keep you engaged throughout, despite the burning desire for something more distinct. And while there’s a fair amount of compromise, “Lawless” keeps intact the transgressive appeal of crime, which has proved essen-

tial to every good gangster saga. When Oldman’s legendary thug rolls through the brothers’ town, LaBeouf’s protagonist looks on like a rabid fan, at last in the presence of his tommy-gun-toting idol. And while some will surely balk at his unbound scenery-chewing, Pearce is aces as a corrupt special agent, urged to viciously stand out as this year’s Christoph Waltz. “Lawless” is keen enough to grasp the lure and peril of the many levels of villainy, and though tied up neatly, it ultimately takes a page from “The Sopranos,” implying that the life of an outlaw isn’t special, and can abruptly end at any moment.

Jane G’s By Phyllis Stein-Novack R e s ta u r a n t R e v i e w e r

I

t always amazes me how architects plan and design buildings. What goes through Frank Gehry’s mind when he sits at his drawing table and creates a masterpiece? The same can be said for the men and women who gut a building and turn a former big-box video store into a restaurant. This happened over many months when Jane G’s opened at the corner of 20th and Chestnut streets. I knew it was going to be a restaurant, but there was no clue as to the type of cuisine. Last week, after doing some shopping and people watching in Rittenhouse Square, Sandy and I strolled over to Jane G’s and looked forward to a quiet dinner. I must say it is a lovely space. There are looming ceilings, hardwood floors, black leather booths, a raw bar with open kitchen, fine lighting and tables set with white linens. “Is this our first time here?” our server asked. I have noticed the ridiculous use of the "Royal We" by waitstaff. I desperately wanted Professor Potts, portrayed by the great Gary Cooper in “Ball of Fire” to magically appear and correct this young man’s grammar. I said "yes," which was an instant mistake. “Let me recommend some of my favorite dishes,” he said. When will restaurant owners understand that their guests want to settle in with a menu and a drink and left to their conversation? M a rc o n i / Pa c ke r Pa r k

With that said, I'll move on to dinner. I sipped a small glass of GL Frenzy Sauvignon Blanc ($9), a fine grassy wine from New Zealand as we discussed the bill of fare. Sandy and I love raw clams and noticed a half dozen of top necks were $6. We prefer cherrystones but these were a tad smaller and OK with us. Clams must be icy cold. Unfortunately, these clams, which were nestled on rock salt and served on an oblong plate, were just cool. They would have been better if they were served on crushed ice. I noticed Jane G’s menu is Asian fusion with a nod to the French. Why else would a bisque, a few Thai dishes and fried fare keep company on a menu? Duck taro spring rolls ($7) imparted a creamy filling inside crispy wrappers, which were a tad greasy. I could not detect any true duck flavor. They came with a slightly sweet dipping sauce. Sandy likes dumplings so we ordered the duck pine nut dumplings ($7), which arrived lukewarm. The filling was nondescriptive — I could not taste the unique flavor of duck. The dish was listed as chicken pine nut dumplings on our bill. Since our previous courses lacked flavor, our eyes immediately turned to garlic noodle heaven shrimp ($15). It is named for the restaurant called Noodle Heaven that did business on South Broad Street for many years. Its former owners opened Jane G’s. Our waiter advised this was among his

favorite dishes. The plate contained a few medium-size shrimp, which imparted a strong iodine flavor. The lukewarm cream sauce, blended with leeks and udon noodles, tasted a bit like garlic. Midway through this dish, we asked a server to have it heated up a bit. Unfortunately, this was not one of my favorite meals although the staff is friendly and the décor is pleasing to the eye. I cannot stress how important it is to check your bill before paying. I was charged $10 for a $9 glass of wine and $17 for a $15 shrimp dish. The errors were quickly corrected.

he end of summer always brings a smile to my face. I hate the heat and humidity and detest running a load of laundry every other day. The lack of rain brought a nationwide drought just as it was depicted by John Steinbeck in his masterpiece, “The Grapes of Wrath.” Let’s hope rain is in the forecast so the patches will be filled with pumpkins for us to enjoy. I don’t want to appear to be a Debbie downer, so let’s look forward to Labor Day and celebrate the men and women who helped build America. My menu features beef. I think I will splurge and buy a Flank Steak. This cut of beef is no longer the bargain it used to be. It is $14.99 a pound at Whole Foods, but there will not be any waste and leftovers can be used in sandwiches and salads. The Lancaster County tomatoes have been better than ever. They will star in a salad with basil from my garden, olives and feta cheese. I used to make potato salad but Whole Foods' red bliss potato salad is so tasty

that I buy it and doctor it up. I add bits of crumbled bacon and blue cheese. Carrot Salad is a colorful addition to my Labor Day menu. Most supermarkets add raisins, but I prefer chopped walnuts. Replace Greek-style yogurt for most of the mayonnaise and you will end up with a Carrot Salad filled with flavor. While I am on the subject of yogurt, you may have seen all the television commercials for Greek-style yogurt which is currently all the rage. I use the thick, rich and smooth Fage (pronounced Fie-Ya). I have not tried other national brands, but I think I will and conduct a taste test. I will let you know my findings in a future column. Enjoy Labor Day. The beauty of autumn is on its way.

8 ounces of imported feta cheese, cut into small chunks Handful of fresh basil leaves, snipped with a scissors Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste 1/2 cup of extra-virgin olive oil Juice of 2 lemons

duce to medium-high and add the steak. Sear it for about three minutes on each side for rare beef. Place it on a carving board and allow it to rest for 10 minutes. Carve into neat slices. Serves four.

Bid adieu to summer in style by hosting a send-off celebration, but beware that those dreaded words of work and school will soon follow.

Happy 50th Birthday

Happy 26th Birthday Son.

He was born in Philadelphia, PA the 6th, and last surviving, of seven children. He graduated from Edward W. Bok Technical School 1941, skilled in carpentry and masonry. One of the first projects he worked on was doing the brick work, which still stands, at the police station on 11th and Winter Sts. In 1943, he joined the Army during WWII and served, with the ”A” Battery 558th AAA (AW) Bn”, in Germany and Belgium and was awarded 2 battle stars. After returning from the war, he married his late wife Josephine who passed away in 1964. He finished his professional career as a salesman, working 40+ years at Oregon Window Co, Inc, in South Philadelphia. Sales was a perfect profession for him as he was a person who enjoyed meeting and talking with people. He was a lifetime member of Deborah Hospital. In his spare time he enjoyed watching sports, the Phillies and he loved his Cairn Terriers. He is survived by many nephews and nieces.
