Word on the Street

What are your thoughts on Andy Reid’s return to Philly?

“I think it is a positive thing. He is a great coach and has always been good to the Eagles. Maybe [Chip] Kelly can learn some things from Reid.� Edwin Lopez, 10th and Shunk streets

“I feel sorry for him. Philly is a tough crowd. I don’t think it will be a happy welcome.� Ann Marie Sasselli, 18th Street and Oregon Avenue

Opposing points To the Editor: It’s popular in some circles to blame teachers for all the problems of public education. A letter by Jason Kaye (“Eye on students,� Sept. 5) was written with the thought that there might be a teachers’ strike, but he uses that as an excuse to rehash stale teacher-and union-bashing talking points: Seniority rules are a terrible thing, teachers reject accountability and lack of funding is not a problem. Concerning seniority, there is a myth that because of union seniority rules, “many� fabulous “young, innovative� teachers are pushed out so that incompetent, old teachers stay on. Certainly in some cases this can happen; but no system is perfect. Not all young teachers are effective, plus new teachers have a steep learning curve and need mentoring from experienced colleagues. The majority of teachers

coming into the Philadelphia public schools don’t last more than five years. That’s not because they are “shoved out;� it’s because a lot of would-be teachers aren’t up to the demands of the job, and often the most talented ones leave for greener suburban pastures. Of course there are veteran teachers who are not doing a great job, but I wonder how many of them are suffering from burnout. They deserve some credit and support for just surviving on the front lines of urban education. Accountability is another hotbutton issue, and Mr. Kaye chooses not to consider that teachers have valid concerns. Who determines the criteria for evaluations, who performs the evaluations, and what is to keep favoritism or personal grudges from being a factor? (And what is the basis for his generalization that the “overwhelming majority of public school teachers

have a disdain for any accountability measures — a research study that no one else knows about?) Then there’s the biggest, hottest issue of all — funding. The notion that increased funding would be “more taxpayer money dumped into the system� or “throwing money at the problem� is a favorite theme of the so-called education reformers. They never manage to explain why affluent school districts have better educational outcomes. Mr. Kaye seems to forget that Pennsylvania schools have suffered huge losses of funding, causing probably the worstever crisis for Philadelphia public schools. More money is needed just to make up for the losses, to bring back the several thousand laid-off staff; not just teachers, but counselors, nurses, aides, and many others — just to give back to Philadelphia schools what they had a few years ago. Finally, the underlying defect in Mr. Kaye’s arguments is that public education is a kind of zero-sum situation. In other words, his view seems to be that anything which

“We like Reid and have to treat him like any other guy. His team will lose, and we will give him a Philly [soft] pretzel as a parting gift.� Yaseem Muwwakkil, Broad Street and Oregon Avenue

“I hope the Eagles destroy him. I am not a fan of Andy.� Rahsaan Rogers, 17th and Sigel streets

South PhillyReview benefits teachers is detrimental to students. This is a clever divideand-conquer strategy used by the corporate-backed, pro-privatization and union-busting interests to con the public into believing that teachers are the problem. Not poverty and inequality; not corporations that don’t pay taxes; not politicians like Gov. Tom Corbett, beholden to those corporate interests, who slash public-education funding. Can any sane person actually believe that the problems of urban education — in Philadelphia and many other cities — are caused by teachers’ unions? How can demonizing teachers improve public education? Ellen Slack South Philadelphia

Banking on donations To the Editor: Inadvertently, I discovered that Bucks County has the Greater Philadelphia Diaper Bank, which provides diapers to low-income parents. This organization is desperately seeking donations from individuals and/or companies in order to accommodate their long waiting list of agencies that distribute diapers to needy families. If you are a parent, you know that infants require numerous diaper changes throughout the day. Often, a dozen diapers may be used in a 24hour period. Parents living in poverty may reuse wet and soiled disposable diapers because they have no other choice. Obviously, children who are subjected to this kind of personal hygiene are prone to rashes and urinary tract infections. As you know, diapers are expensive. The economy is stagnant and people are unemployed, therefore, donations are often scarce. However, they will gratefully accept diaper donations of any brand or size. This is an excellent opportunity for neighbors to unite for a community service. If a few families shared the cost of a box of diapers, it would reduce the expense. Contact the Greater Philadelphia Diaper Bank at 215-919-8500 or visit philadelphiadiaperbank.org. Arrangements for diaper pickups can be made. Carol A.

POLICE REPORT

■ By Amanda L. Snyder Review Managing Editor

A

North Philly CVS security guard spotted an alleged burglar who threatened an employee with a syringe while trying to shoplift hair regrowth treatment at one of the store’s South Philly counterparts. A loss prevention employee at CVS, 1001 Washington Ave., allegedly saw Anthony Watson, 34, of the 2400 block of Wharton Street, stuffing a bag with boxes of Rogaine at 1:25 p.m. Sept. 12, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. As Watson allegedly attempted to depart the store with the merchandise, the worker stopped him. However, Watson is believed to have dropped the sack, retrieved a syringe from his back pocket and intimidated the employee, who backed off for his own safety. Watson supposedly left behind the $561 worth of hair treatment, Tolliver said. At 11:15 a.m. Sept. 15, a 33-year-old security officer at a North Philly CVS spotted Watson, who he believed resembled the man caught on surveillance video at the store’s Bella Vista location, so he called 911, Tolliver said. Police arrived on the scene and arrested Watson, charging him with retail theft, simple assault and possession of an instrument of crime, according to court records. His bail was set at $3,500, but it had not been posted by press time. Watson pled guilty to one count of retail theft in 2000 in Montgomery County plus four retail thefts and a simple assault last year in Center City, according to court records.

Alleged killer on the loose Authorities are looking for a Point Breeze man allegedly responsible for a West Philly homicide. The U.S. Marshals Service has identified Robert “Bobby” Anderson, 28, of the 1800 block of Morris Street, as one of the alleged shooters that gunned down 17-yearold Tremaine Rogers on his block — the 900 block of North Robert 64th Street — at 4:06 Anderson p.m. July 13, accord-

ing to authorities. Anderson, who is 6-foot-1, 200 pounds and has black hair, brown eyes and a tattoo of an eight-ball on his left hand, allegedly shot the teen in his back after a dispute during a basketball game. Tyreek S. Hall, 26, of Southwest Philly, was arrested for his role in the homicide Aug. 26 in West Philly, according to police and court records. Hall is being held without bail and has been charged with murder, conspiracy, possession of an instrument of crime and firearm violations. It is unclear who was the shooter. There is a $1,500 reward for information leading to Anderson’s arrest. To report information, call the U.S. Marshal tip line at 866-865-TIPS, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice. com/forms.

Morning flash A teen exposed himself to a woman in Marconi East last week. The 24-year-old female was headed home when the 14- to 15-year-old walked up to her on the 2700 block of South 12th Street at 8:50 a.m. Sept. 9, exposed himself, made lewd comments and fled southbound on 12th Street, according to a police bulletin. The boy was described as black, 5-foot7, thin, having short hair and wearing a blue sweater and khaki pants, which may have been a school uniform. To report information, call Special Victims Unit at 215-685-3251, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Unheard of A North Philly man was apprehended when officers caught him robbing a deaf man in Grays Ferry Saturday. Officers noticed Yusef Russell, aka Mark Tillison, digging through the pockets of a 48-year-old man who appeared frantic and made loud yelps at 1:28 a.m. on the 2600 block of Wilder Street Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. When the cops investigated, the man broke free from Russell, who allegedly had a knife in his pocket. Since the victim was deaf and mute, the officers communicated via pen and paper — on which the man allegedly wrote “robber,” Tolliver said. Officers arrested Russell, 42, of North Philly, and charged him with robbery, pos-

session of an instrument of crime, simple assault, recklessly endangering another person, attempted theft and attempted receiving stolen property, according to court records. His bail was set at $25,000, but it had not been posted as of press time. The victim was physically unharmed. Russell pled guilty to a retail theft in 1994 in Delaware County and an additional one in North Philly last year, according to court records. He also was found guilty of simple assault and recklessly endangering another person in 2002 in North Philly.

Surveillance video

Playground mêlée A fight on a Newbold recreation site left a 44-year-old with a stab wound to his back Friday. The man’s friend, whom he only knows as “Ace,” was in a fight with the perpetrator at 2:50 p.m. at DiSilvestro Playground, 1701 S. 15th St., Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Upon being struck in the face, his pal fell to the ground, so the 44-year-old pushed the attacker away and tried to help his buddy up, at which point he was stabbed in the right side of his back with a knife. The offender, who was described as

black, age 50 to 60, 5-foot-8, 180 pounds, fled on a bicycle in an unknown direction. Shortly after that, a medic transported the victim to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in stable condition. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Counter swiping A couple noticed a woman fleeing from their Pennsport home with both of their wallets Saturday. The 40-year-old female was upstairs with her 45-year-old husband when they saw their side door was open at 2:15 p.m. Sept. 12 on the 2000 block of South Third Street, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Upon hearing a crashing noise, the woman spotted the burglar fleeing from the home in an unknown direction. By the time she went downstairs the female thief was gone with her wallet, containing ID, credit cards and $40, and her spouse’s wallet, containing ID and $40, which were on the kitchen counter. The suspect was described as a white female, age 30, 5-foot-6, 150 pounds, having her hair in a ponytail and wearing a gray hoodie and blue jeans. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

In the waiting room Police have apprehended a Dickinson Square West man who allegedly burglarized a Pennsport dentist’s office last month. Jamie Rodriguez, 24, of the 1700 block of South Fifth Street, was arrested Aug. 23 for allegedly burglarizing Dentex Dental Group, 1701 E. MoyaJamie mensing Ave., at 3 a.m. Rodriguez five days prior (“Clean sweep,” Aug. 22), according to police and court records. Rodriquez is believed to have spent two hours roaming the business, taking checks, computers, a credit card reader and mail before fleeing in an unknown direction, police said. He was charged with burglary, trespassing, theft, receiving stolen property, possession of an instrument of crime and criminal mischief. His bail, which he posted a percentage of Aug. 30, was set at $5,000. SPR Contact Managing Editor Amanda L. Snyder at asnyder@southphillyreview.com or ext. 117.

Police released surveillance video of a Girard Estate robbery in hopes of identifying a suspect last week. The robber walked inside Dollar Tree, 2437 S. 23rd St., at 9 p.m. Aug. 29 and headed to the rear of the store where he held a gun to the employee’s head and ordered the worker to open the safe, police said.

Wei to go!

A Lower Moyamensing resident is a finalist for an accord-promoting commendation. ■ By Joseph Myers R e v i e w S ta f f W r i t e r

T

hree months into his time in the United States, then-freshman Wei Chen became a victim of violence at South Philadelphia High School, 2101 S. Broad St. Rather than rewarding aggression with retaliation for that March 2007 day, additional attacks and hostility toward his Asian peers, the resident of the 900 block of Daly Street has championed resolve and resilience. Six years removed from his initial questioning of what he could cultivate in America, the burgeoning activist has become a finalist for the inaugural Peace First Prize. “I have lost and found hope again on my journey, which in many ways is just beginning,” the 22-year-old said Friday morning before heading to help helm the Chinatown-situated Chinese Youth Organizing Project, which he co-founded two years ago. “I want to contribute to my community, so to have an opportunity through this competition humbles me.” The Lower Moyamensing dweller learned of the award, the eponymous brainchild of a Boston-based nonprofit peace education program, through peers from Asian American United. Chen applied in February and heard last month he and 49 others had emerged from among 700 applicants as finalists for the two-year, $50,000 fellowship. The accolade honors young people who are situating themselves in the global quest for harmony, a pursuit the local contestant has chased since arriving from China’s Fujian Province. “I had been outgoing in my country, but after I was beat up at school for being different, I didn’t speak much,” the crusader said of receiving a jolt to expectations that a move to America would yield more joy than grief. “I found I was not alone, but there were so many bad emotions I struggled to comprehend.” Chen elected to skip school for a week, returning with apprehension yet no real means to summon courage to rail against his frustration. He sought aid in October ’08 after a subway-situated display of violence against Asian students at Broad Street and Snyder Avenue and garnered it Columbus Day when he orchestrated a gathering with prominent figures, including Helen Gym, to discuss his angst. “What constantly impresses me about Wei is his belief that the world can change for the better when young people come

together to demand it,” the co-founder of Parents United for Public Education said of the young man. “[When I met him,] he said we as community members had to act. How could we refuse?” Along with Gym and her colleagues, Chen added many allies, including the Southeast Asian Mutual Assistance Associations Coalition Inc., 1711 S. Broad St., and oversaw a coalition of Asian learners at Southern. Even with support, he remained uncomfortable, with Dec. 2 and 3, ’09 being his breaking point. “I attribute them to the administration’s lack of concern for us,” Chen said of attacks within and around his alma mater that required 13 Asian enrollees to seek medical attention. “Following the incidents, I knew there could be no turning back.” FOND OF THE work of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the teenager echoed the leader’s call for civil disobedience by organizing an eight-day boycott and helping to generate a complaint against the School District of Philadelphia, which the U.S. Department of Justice in December ’10 stipulated must develop an action plan to address harassment. Since his graduation three years ago, Chen has rooted for his old haunt, especially Principal Otis D. Hackney III, who arrived at the Lower Moyamensing location just after he had become an alumnus. “I see change and dedication to engaging in long-term thinking,” Chen said of Southern’s current corps of power players. “I would like to be a student there now because it seems normal. I became accus-

tomed to abnormal when I was there, so I’d like to be a leader there.” Having obtained a sense of his inner strength by being a defender of his forlorn friends, the progressive individual worked on his external confidence by bettering his English at Community College of Philadelphia, eventually adding photography tutelage. Over his two-year matriculation, he remained active in the Asian community, with participation within Asian Americans United and the creation of his Chinese-centered youth initiative solidifying his commitment in ’11. “My belief is that we all have power, so why not be more powerful together?” Chen, who uses Asian Americans United funding and office space to guide immigrant youths on their road to leadership acquisition, said. “I’m looking to change the culture for them and get them involved.” Along with altering youths’ perceptions of growth, he is aiming to have his family believe he can succeed as a community organizer, which he figures to make his key vocation for at least the next four years. His relatives feel he should seek a different occupation, but just like with his work at Southern, he is standing by his stance that looking out only for himself essentially amounts to ignoring others. “I know my parents want for me to do well, and I respect their opinion,” Chen said. “I’ve decided I want to be a little different, and I know that’s a heavy responsibility. I’ve been thinking about it a lot, and I’ve cried because of it.” “I don’t feel like Wei thinks he’s making

a choice between his family and himself,” Gym added. “I think Wei is struggling with the sustainability of community organizing as a viable career and future. That is an important and thoughtful question for all of us here in Philadelphia, but it has particular resonance within immigrant communities, where families have so narrow a margin.” Set to hear the prize personnel’s decision next month, Chen realizes the significance of upholding hope among his Asian brethren, especially those who feel downtrodden. If he secures the fellowship, he would apply his diligence to defining community as a collection of people who need opportunities to thrive and who should reciprocate when they have chances to help their neighbors to excel. “I believe Wei understands his work is all about community building, not choosing an independent life for himself,” Gym said. “The challenge is whether Philadelphia and others will recognize the incredible value and work he brings to our city and invest in him as well. No one is more deserving of this honor.” Ever humble, Chen places into perspective gaining a reputation among his people as a tireless advocate, seeing himself as a conduit for their evolution. “When the violence occurred four years ago, we were victims who became organizers,” he said. “I feel fortunate but there’s more to do.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

An East Passyunk Crossing resident won a fellowship to enhance her older adult-centered vocation. ■ By Joseph Myers R e v i e w S ta f f W r i t e r

s a five-year Philadelphia Corporation for Aging employee, Kate Clark has come to revel in making connections, whether they involve her bonding with individuals or tying topics together. The 36-year-old East Passyunk Crossing dweller will begin to cater to her affinity for unity more fervently next month as a health and policy fellow through the New Yorkheadquartered Atlantic Philanthropies. “There are so many possibilities to improve older adults’ lives, so I’m excited for this opportunity to maximize networking opportunities and put ideas into practice,” the planner for policy and program development said last week from her home on the 1700 block of South 10th Street. “My efforts won’t focus only on seniors, though, because I know what’s good for them will benefit younger generations, too.” Her soon-to-be benefactor officially disclosed its list of 11 honorees last month, selecting Clark for overseeing her employer’s Age-friendly Philadelphia agenda, as well as chairing

Generation Appreciation Philadelphia. She founded the latter, which has become a corporation program, four years ago as a product of her belief that equity and sustainability for older adults must matter to more than policy makers. “People are living longer and need more options to remain healthy, vibrant and productive,” Clark said, noting Philadelphia two years ago had 267,000 residents older than 60, which translates to 17 percent of the population, good for second in the nation behind her native New York City. “That means aligning them with resources, but it should include having more professionals start to understand how to identify with their needs and understand their experiences.” The advocate accomplishes outreach through her dual duties, with her brainchild including 400 ambassadors who learn through events and meetings of integration occasions for their predecessors in youth. Engaging herself in areas such as community gardens, healthy eating, housing and public transportation, she stresses mixing practicality and novelty in forging intergenerational exchanges beneficial to all parties. “That’s something I’ll reiterate during my fellowship,” Clark, who will leave for the nation’s capital in late October for training before becoming a full-fledged

implorer of accord with federal agencies to improve her current metropolis, especially South Philly, said. “So many fear growing older because they believe fewer and fewer people are going to care. That’s not true.” Responsible for instructing her peers in the joys of seeing seniors succeed, she acknowledges pride in becoming a commended worker yet sees the kudos as a secondary component. “We have to continue to speak up for and act on the behalf of older adults,” Clark said. “If we all wish to reach old age, shouldn’t we see what we do today is going to set everyone up for a better future?” THE EMPIRE STATE product first envisioned brighter tomorrows as a Clark University geography and art history student, using the Massachusetts-situated school to learn of cities’ physical environments. Following a stint as an English as a Second Language teacher in Venezuela, she kickstarted her professional life upon returning to her birth state, with New York’s Department of Parks and Recreation retaining her for nearly three years, which included her creating and managing the Parks Library in Central Park. After returning to South America for tutelage at Chile’s Pontificia Universidad

Católica School of Urban Planning and a research and translation internship in Argentina, she furthered her community growth curiosity by obtaining a master’s of public administration from Syracuse University. She remained a presence in Upstate New York for another three years as an economic development specialist and a public art coordinator. “New York offered so many opportunities, but I wanted a bit of a change,” Clark, who moved to Philadelphia with husband David Clayton in 2008, said. “I started to think about how to apply myself different ways, and though I didn’t necessarily have the intense background working with older adults, I felt I could use my knowledge of other fields to benefit them.” As the Area Agency for Aging, her organization operates 34 senior community centers, including the South Philadelphia Older Adult Center, 1430 E. Passyunk Ave., which she noted in Age-friendly Philadelphia’s ’11 inaugural report as being situated in a community that can foster many opportunities for enrollees and their contemporaries. Eager to help other expanses to offer aesthetic delights and structural ease, the proponent of visitability, which is the movement to have home construction concentrate on making mobility-impaired

individuals feel safer through amenities such as step-free entrances and half-baths, always looks for partners who see aging citizens as helpers rather than hindrances. “Because we’re beginning to deal with many older residents, conveying the message has become easier but no less important,” Clark, whose efforts have brought her employer much renown, including a National Association of Area Agencies on Aging Achievement Award, said. “There are so many people out there to address and many more to get in their corner.” Owing to her attraction to overall communal progress, the mother of 2-yearold August last year co-founded the East Passyunk Crossing Civic Association and Town Watch’s Education Committee. Last week, she offered Spanish translation in helping Southwark School, 1835 S. Ninth St., to open a new year as a Team Dragon member. No matter the endeavor, Clark knows the present informs the future and therefore advocates for action. “Years ago, nobody talked about seniors,” she said. “I can’t stop talking about them. We derive strength from them. They’re the future, too.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview.com or ext. 124. Comment at southphillyreview.com/news/lifestyles.

Weight Issues Outweighing What’s Good In Your Life? Bariatric surgery may be the answer. “Having bariatric surgery was like going through a break-up. Eating was my best friend. Fortunately, I met some new people – Jefferson’s Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery team. The unique way Jefferson’s medical and surgical weight management experts collaborate, they’ve helped me lose 107 pounds and counting. And it wasn’t just the minimally invasive surgery that did it. The team at Jefferson was so supportive, even to this day, I pretend Dr. Tichansky, Alise and Michelle are standing behind me when tough choices come my way. Because my old friend, food, will always have its charms. But my new life is even more tempting.” Read my entire story and register to attend one of the free seminars listed below at jeffersonhospital.org/myweightloss Jefferson at the Navy Yard: October 9 Jefferson’s Methodist Hospital: October 1 and 15

Night riders

P

a Friday night at 10, he’d find the station that carried the Friday Night Fights. He didn’t care about the fights; he just liked the Gillette theme. And he’d sing along with the opening music: “To look sharp, every time you shave. To feel sharp, and be on the ball. Just be sharp. Use Gillette Blue Blades for the quickest, slickest shave of all.” One of us would shout, “Shut the hell up.” Then we’d scream for Snaz to turn back to WIBG so we could hear Hyski or the The Rockin’ Bird play our music. Inevitably arguments would break out in the car to determine which of us was dumber or whether Joe DiMaggio or Ted Williams was the better player. It was the same arguments all the time that were never resolved and only ended when one of the guys would get annoyed and say, “Shut the hell up, youse guys.” Most of the time we would never get to the Shore — just ride around with the windows down, getting up the courage to whistle at the babes who pretended to be annoyed, but secretly liked the attention. We had lots of courage when we were together, not much when we were alone. We were different people when we were alone. The thing was the loneliness. We tried but you couldn’t outride the loneliness. It’s true when they say you can be lonely in a crowd, but it was worse when the other guys weren’t around. If we started running on fumes, the driver would stop and collect 50 cents from one of us and get enough gas in the car to get us back to the corner. The brakes were shot on one of the old pieces of crap that Snaz drove. He would practically have to stick his foot outside the door to get it to come to a complete stop. We knew all along that this night was going to end like all of the rides before it. We never picked up any girls. We hadn’t done much of anything but ride around the same dirty streets we did every other night. We never got that cup of coffee down the Shore. No end point. No goal except to beat down the loneliness for another night, trying to tuck it deep inside ourselves so the other guys wouldn’t see it, but we all knew it was there, gnawing its way through our youth. All of us were playing a role, pretending we were cool when inside we were just lost lonely little boys. The ride would end abruptly. The driver decided when it would end. The cool night riders would pile out of the car, looking like we had just accomplished something very important. Pretending that we hadn’t just spent another pointless night back where we started. Back on the street corner. SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/opinion/cardella.

Neil (Josh Gad) is a recovering sex addict when he meets Dede (Alecia Moore aka Pink) in “Thanks for Sharing.”

Worth ‘Sharing’ ■ By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

B

y the looks of its trailer, “Thanks for Sharing” is a film as trivial-seeming as sex addiction, the key topic the earnest dramedy explores. The feature debut of director Stuart Blumberg, who’s best known for co-scripting Lisa Cholodenko’s “The Kids Are All Right,” the movie is ostensibly packed with red flags, from its apparent upper-middleclass problems (personified by co-star and everyone’s favorite rich woman to hate, Gwyneth Paltrow) to the curious casting of Philly native Alecia Moore (aka Pink), who tackles — and, frankly, nails — her first film role. But just as sex addicts are more than bored and horny narcissists, “Thanks for Sharing” is much more than its eyebrow-raising ingredients. Admittedly, the film is a markedly overloaded affair, with a mélange of characters and subplots that can occasionally feel oppressive. On the other hand, however, Blumberg and his co-writer Matt Winston effectively use their well-populated tapestry to illustrate the countless ways addiction can affect countless types of people. The lead trio of characters, Adam (Mark Ruffalo), Mike (Tim Robbins), and Neil (Josh Gad), are all in the same sex-addict circle, spilling their guts in meetings while aiming to keep it in their pants elsewhere. Some folks, like, Mike, his son Danny (an excellent Patrick Fugit) and outspoken hairdresser Dede (Moore), have other addictions as well, while other characters, like Phoebe (Paltrow) and Mike’s wife, Katie (Joely Richardson), represent the strange struggles of those who live with addicts, precariously, every day. Some climaxes (no pun intended) fall flat, and the film wanes as it stumblingly

reveals that it’s beholden to tying up its many plot lines, but none of that is irksome enough to kill the film’s honesty and savvy about addiction. Whatever the “drug,” those who use it have an unexplainable void to fill, and “Thanks for Sharing” understands that. However inevitable, every emotional breakthrough hits its tear-jerking target, and missteps in characterization are made up for by the 3-D rendering of the issue at large. When you hear the many AA-spawned clichés the movie employs (“keep coming back,” etc.), remember: Those same clichés save real people’s lives.

In this gonzo “documentary” from boundlessly curious filmmaker Rodney Ascher, the motives, messages, and cavernous nuances of Stanley Kubrick’s “The Shining” are maddeningly explored, by both the filmmaker and his who’s-who of pundits, who ponder the film with varying degrees of intrigue and arguable insanity. The result is uneven, but never uninteresting, and what it ultimately proves is that there are never enough ways — or, for that matter, wrong ways — to digest a movie.

assed by the old corner the other day. Not a trace of the old gang was left — as if we never existed. Even the ghosts don’t visit anymore. I could still see us standing on the corner with nothing to do, but making it look as if that’s exactly what we wanted to be doing. Nothing. Like it was cool to do nothing. Hands in pockets. Talking too loud. We sounded like we owned the world when, in truth, nothing was exactly what we owned. Just some change in our pockets. No girls. Girls didn’t hang on street corners in the nifty ’50s. Hell, we could have been monks. Drinking wine out of a paper bag was something the bad kids did, and we weren’t bad kids. Drugs were something Frankie Machine shot up in “The Man with the Golden Arm.” It wasn’t really “Happy Days” either because that didn’t show the loneliness we lived with all the time. Too old to sit in front of the TV with Mom and Dad and too young to know what the future held. The future was as cloudy as the eyes of the old guy who owned the luncheonette. Suddenly one of the lucky guys who had an old Chevy would utter those magic words: “Let’s take a ride.” Five of us would pile into the small car and ride as far as our collective gas money would take us. Hell, if we were feeling flush, we would ride to the Shore for a cup of coffee. Ride off into the promise of the night. What was it about the night back then? Why did it set something stirring inside you? The driver, who controlled the music, tuned the radio to WIBG or WFIL. Three notes into a song, the driver would decide that he didn’t like what was playing and press the button for the other station. Chances were he’d hit a commercial and punch the button back again. You could go for miles without hearing a complete song while we screamed from the backseat to let the last song play through. But he wouldn’t. He just kept pressing those damn buttons. Finally, the driver would get lucky. He’d hit a song he liked, and Fats Domino would tell us about “Blueberry Hill” or the Drifters would lament “There Goes My Baby.” When Snaz drove, and it happened to be

Amber’s Lime-Yogurt Pie

Suds for buds

E

very once in a while a craving for pie strikes out of the blue, but after opening the refrigerator door, one quickly realizes the only resolution is visiting the local diner of choice. Instead of waiting for the next need-a-slice rumbling from the stomach to hit, prepare a dessert that will add a chilled finish to the day. Amber Neher, of the 2200 block of South Front Street, suggests making her Lime-Yogurt Pie, which will even please those who have trouble with waiting as it only requires 20 minutes of refrigeration.

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

Serpico ■ By Phyllis Stein-Novack R e s ta u r a n t R e v i e w e r

I

never cook the night before a holiday. My favorite pre-Thanksgiving dinner is pizza and a beer. But since my family is Jewish, we have extra observances and celebrations centered on food. I always do all of the cooking myself. Last Thursday — the night before Yom Kippur was to begin — I craved a fine meal. I hoped to discover one at Serpico, which opened in June on South Street. James Beard Award-winning executive chef Peter Serpico has joined culinary forces with Stephen Starr. The casual, barebones space has booths, tables and chairs, as well as counter seating with full view of the open kitchen. Thank goodness it is welllit. The menu is printed on a blackboard, but patrons are offered a paper one as well. Edward and I sat at the counter and watched the magic that occurs when a restaurant is well run. We saw the tickets coming in and heard the chef say “fire a duck, fire a mousse and a soup please.” I thought I was watching “Top Chef.” We sipped martinis ($12) and nibbled on an unusual thin crisp rice cracker that the servers broke off from large sheets. Several servers took exceptional care of us as the restaurant filled to capacity within an hour of our arrival. Duck liver mousse ($10) was a playful version, visually speaking, of one of my favorite starters. The duck was whipped smooth and literally smeared into an oval on a white plate. Dots of naturally sweet pomegranate juice circled the mousse. We delighted in the flavor and texture of the mousse and enjoyed it on small slices of hot grilled baguette. Torn pasta ($16) was a highlight of our Coffee/Café/Sweets Caffe Chicco: 2532 S. Broad St., 215-334-3100, $

dinner. Fresh sheets of perfectly cooked egg dough were married with snail sausage, the right touch of garlic, crispy chicken skin for texture, bits of pecorino for a slightly salty flavor and a sauce made with Italian parsley that was so outstanding, I scooped every bit of it. Snail sausage was a first for me. They were tiny squares with a meaty texture that played off the softness of the pasta. The sausage imparted a mild flavor, but when enjoyed with the garlic, it was a winner. Serpico has a fine wine, beer and spirits list. We sipped a glass of Côtes du Rhône ($10), which I knew would drink well with my breast of duck entrée ($21). I would like to have seen a better sear on the duck, which I found a bit salty. Still, the light use of honey in this dish helped to counter balance the salt. Several multicolored baby carrots and a few thin slices of pickled radish were included. After much deliberation, Edward decided on the trout ($26). Serpico’s version has to be the most unusual one I have ever sampled in a restaurant. The filet was brined with capers, but was not a bit over salty. It was placed in a gray matte-finish bowl and covered with a rich stock, which had the consistency of lobster sauce, but lump crabmeat and trout roe were used instead. The smoked potato salad, cut into a brunoise, imparted a marvelous smoky flavor and aroma that may have been too strong for some people. A touch of pepperoncini, for a slight hot kick, and a dash of chive oil easily made this dish one of the tastiest in recent memory.

Former New York-based chef Peter Serpico is putting his culinary skills on full display at the 60-seat, Bella Vista-based namesake eatery of which he shares ownership with Stephen Starr. S ta f f P h o t o b y K at h r y n P o o l e

Three scoops of rich, dark chocolate pudding were frozen into an ice cream consistency, surrounded by a pool of homemade marshmallow and a scattering of candied walnuts. The play of slightly sweet and slightly salty from the walnuts reminded me of the sundaes I loved as a girl. Toasted apple cake ($8) was another sweet ending. Apples are in season and I found the use of applesauce and brown butter to be an inspiration. It reminded me of the Amish apple pies often served at fine restaurants in Lancaster County. Vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce topped it off. = Very Good

Circles’ Pad Kee Mow

A

lex Boonphaya, who, at 10, moved from Thailand to Tampa, Fla., fell in love with the art of cooking when he spent weekends washing dishes at a Japanese eatery

Chef Alex Boonphaya

Circles

Owner: Alex Boonphaya Opened April 2008 1514-16 Tasker St. 267-687-1778 circlesthai.com

about two years later. “They would never let me cook,” Boonphaya said of the chefs who let him help to prepare the tempuras. Still his passion developed even though he vowed never to wash dishes again. When his parents, who sold their ethnic baked goods at their temple on the weekends, opened a Thai locale, he became a server. He didn’t like the gig, so he went back on his word and cleaned dishes when the restaurant’s chef agreed to teach him how to cook. “He was one of those Thai chefs that didn’t want to give anything away,” Boonphaya said noting he learned from his parents and attended Le Cordon Bleu in Orlando, from which he never graduated due to his desire to work in his parents’ establishment, which later was given to him along with a second location. He soon sold them, and in 2006, relocated to Philly with his wife. Two years later, he opened Circles, 1516 Tasker St., that of-

the great MEATBALL MATCH UP!

fered takeout and delivery only. In ’11, it expanded next door and offered a sit-down experience as well, and last year expanded to Northern Liberties. While the two spots differ, his South Philly menu focuses on royal Thai cuisine. “It’s food that would only be served in the Royal Palace,” the Newbold resident said of dishes such as curries and soups. However, his Pad Kee Mow, for which he has shared the recipe, he considers “regular home cooking.”

4 ounces of chicken, beef, pork or tofu 5 ounces of fresh thick rice noodles 1 tablespoon of dragonfly thin soy or fish sauce 1 teaspoon oyster sauce (omit if vegan or vegetarian) 1 teaspoon palm or granulated sugar 2 ounces of beansprouts 10 leaves of fresh Thai or Thai holy basil

INGREDIENTS: 2 ounces of soy or oil of choice 1 egg 2 garlic cloves, minced 1 Thai chili, minced 1 teaspoon of lemongrass, chopped 1 teaspoon of galangal, chopped 4 ounces of mixed vegetables

DIRECTIONS: Heat the oil in a wok or large sauté pan. Add the egg to the pan, let it cook halfway and then scramble gently. Add the garlic, Thai chili, lem-

ongrass and galangal. Once the herbs begin to sweat, add the vegetables and meat. When cooked halfway, add the noodles and mix well, stirring every 20 seconds for 1 minute to allow the noodles to sear. Add the fish and oyster sauces and sugar and let the sauce begin to reduce and then finish it off with the beansprouts and basil. Make sure the basil gets wilted in, as undercooking it will cause it to turn black. Serves two. SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/ food-and-drink/features.

Annual Public Notice of Special Education Services and Programs, Services for Gifted Students, and Services for Protected Handicapped Students Notice to Parents According to state and federal special education regulations, annual public notice to parents of children who reside within a school district is required regarding child find responsibilities. School districts, intermediate units and charter schools are required to conduct child find activities for children who may be eligible for services via Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. For additional information related to Section 504/Chapter 15 services, the parent may refer to Section 504, Chapter 15, and the Basic Education Circular entitled Implementation of Chapter 15. Also, school districts are required to conduct child find activities for children who may be eligible for gifted services via 22 Pa Code Chapter 16. For additional information regarding gifted services, the parent may refer to 22 PA Code Chapter 16. If a student is both gifted and eligible for Special Education, the procedures in IDEA and Chapter 14 shall take precedence. This notice shall inform parents throughout the school district, intermediate unit, and charter school of the child identification activities and of the procedures followed to ensure confidentiality of information pertaining to students with disabilities or eligible young children. In addition to this public notice, each school district, intermediate unit, and charter school shall publish written information in the handbook and on the web site. Children ages three through twenty one can be eligible for special education programs and services. If parents believe that the child may be eligible for special education, the parent should contact the appropriate Regional Office or Charter School Principal identified at the end of this public notice. Children age three through the age of admission to first grade are also eligible if they have developmental delays and, as a result, need Special Education and related services. Developmental delay is defined as a child who is less than the age of beginners and at least 3 years of age and is considered to have a developmental delay when one of the following exists: (i) The child’s score, on a developmental assessment device, on an assessment instrument which yields a score in months, indicates that the child is delayed by 25% of the child’s chronological age in one or more developmental areas. (ii) The child is delayed in one or more of the developmental areas, as documented by test performance of 1.5 standard deviations below the mean on standardized tests. Developmental areas include cognitive, communicative, physical, social/emotional and self-help. For additional information you may contact Elwyn SEEDS at (215) 222-8054.

Evaluation Process Each school district, intermediate unit, and charter school has a procedure in place by which parents can request an evaluation. For information about procedures applicable to your child, contact the school, which your child attends. Telephone numbers and addresses can be found at the end of this notice. Parents of preschool age children, age three through five, may request an evaluation in writing by addressing a letter to Elwyn SEEDS at 4025 Chestnut Street, 2nd Floor, Philadelphia, PA 19104. Consent School entities cannot proceed with an evaluation, or with the initial provision of special education and related services, without the written consent of the parents. For additional information related to consent, please refer the Procedural Safeguards Notice which can be found at the PaTTAN website, www.Pattan. net. Once written parental consent is obtained, the district will proceed with the evaluation process. If the parent disagrees with the evaluation, the parent can request an independent education evaluation at public expense. Program Development Once the evaluation process is completed, a team of qualified professional and parents determine whether the child is eligible. If the child is eligible, the individualized education program team meets, develops the program, and determines the educational placement. Once the IEP team develops the program and determines the educational placement, school district staff, intermediate unit staff, or charter school staff will issue a notice of recommended educational placement/prior written notice. Your written consent is required before initial services can be provided. The parent has the right to revoke consent after initial placement. Confidentiality of Information: School districts, intermediate units and charter schools maintain records concerning all children enrolled in the school, including students with disabilities. All records are maintained in the strictest confidentiality. Your consent, or consent of an eligible child who has reached the age of majority under State law, must be obtained before personally identifiable information is released, except as permitted under the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). The age of majority in Pennsylvania is 21. Each participating agency must protect the confidentiality of personally identifiable information at collection, storage, disclosure, and destruction stages. One official at each participating agency must assume responsibility for ensuring the confidentiality of any personally identifiable information. Each participating agency must maintain, for public inspection, a current listing of the names and positions of those employees within the agency who have access to personally identifiable information. For additional information related to student records, the parent can refer to the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) This notice is only a summary of the Special Education services, evaluation and screening activities, and rights and protections pertaining to children with disabilities, children thought to be disabled, and their parents. For more information or to request evaluation or screening of a public or private school child contact the responsible school entity listed below. For preschool age children, information, screenings and evaluations requested, may be obtained by contacting Elwyn SEEDS.

Joseph Myers talks

■ s o u t h p h i l l y r ev i ew.c o m

A fruitful decision A Grays Ferry football star committed to a prominent New Yorkbased university. ■ By Joseph Myers R e v i e w S ta f f W r i t e r

W

Like his brothers before him, Jamal Custis has performed admirably enough to earn a football scholarship. He also could end up trying out for his future school’s renowned basketball team. S ta f f P h o t o b y K at h r y n P o o l e

Custis, who praised the Saints’ mix of veteran and young talent, said. “Before, I’d say we were playing to survive, but now we feel different, especially me because I’m a captain. It’s all or nothing because we want a championship.” THE CONFIDENT CHARACTER has grown accustomed to participating in end-of-theseason celebrations. He first felt attracted to basketball as a sixth-grader at St. Thomas Aquinas School, 1719 Morris St., and added football the next year through the Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Youth Organization, earning titles his initial year in each. “I started just wanting to contribute, but I saw people getting awards and decided to dedicate myself to working

at southphillyreview.com/blogs.php on my game,” the teenager said. “I applied myself and developed my physicality and footwork, which I feel have really helped me here.” Custis believed basketball would yield him greater success and even pondered quitting football. Doubling his duties, he became a sought-after presence for numerous institutions, with Southern Methodist University involving him in a unique situation. “People came to look at Ja’Quan [Newton] and apparently I impressed them, too,” Custis said of his basketball teammate who last month committed to the University of Miami. “They were prepared to give me a scholarship for football, too.” Had he headed to SMU, he would have gained basketball instruction from Hall of Fame coach Larry Brown, who guided the 76ers to the ’01 NBA Finals. Mulling over the offer, Custis felt the location would not offer the best match for his aspirations, though he remains thankful for the consideration. Though Syracuse has received his pledge to solidify their aerial attack, he has not ruled out trying to walk on for the basketball team, which Jim Boeheim, another Hall of Famer, helms. If he doesn’t earn a roster spot, Custis will still become the fourth South Philadelphia figure to perform in the Carrier Dome (also home to the school’s basketball team), joining fellow Saints Rick Jackson and Antonio “Scoop” Jardine and South-of-South product Dion Waiters, now with the Cleveland Cavaliers. “It’s a very interesting time in my life,” Custis said of having made his decision, looking to make his high school football swan song a success and preparing for his starting power forward role for the five-time defending Catholic League basketball titlists. “I want to be a force for coach [Carl] Arrigale and get us another championship.” No matter if he adds more crowns as a high school athlete, he will feel incredibly prepared because each system has taught him discipline and accountability, which he will apply as a likely business or sports management major. “I would like to go pro, but if it doesn’t work out, I believe one of them will be a good fit,” Custis said. “It will all make more sense soon.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

hen Jamal Custis was looking for a secondary education site three years ago, he let his love of basketball inuence his selection of Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St. When seeking a higher learning institution this summer, the resident of the 1500 block of South 32nd Street and member of three parochial league championship hoop squads called on his other athletic infatuation, football, to help him to choose Syracuse University. “It is interesting that my second sport is the one I’ll go to college for,” the 17-year-old senior said Monday at his East Passyunk Crossing school. “Whatever the case, I feel fortunate to have a chance to improve as a competitor.” The Grays Ferry denizen committed to the Upstate New York-situated facility Sept. 8, grateful for its gridiron coaches’ year-long interest in him. Turning down many suitors, including Temple University, where his brother Kadeem, a 2009 Neumann-Goretti alumnus, donned a helmet for the Owls, the 6-foot-6 wide receiver figures to factor immediately into the Atlantic Coast Conference unit’s offensive strategies. “It will be a fantastic opportunity to grow, especially because I feel the school has a great family-oriented theme,” Custis said of aiding the Orange, whose conference clashes involve dates with powerhouses Florida State University and the University of Miami and matchups against other solid foes. His future location has registered 699 victories in its history, which includes fielding players such as Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown, future enshrinee and Philadelphia product Marvin Harrison and former Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb, but has tallied only two winning seasons since ’01. Under first-year coach Scott Shafer, whom Custis lauds as “a cool guy,” this year’s performers have begun 1-2, with the local pigskin player especially attentive to their style of play and execution. “I’m ready to put in all the necessary work because I know how difficult it’s

going to be to try to succeed if I don’t,” he said of expectations for guiding his pending pals to renown. “There’s really no point in going if I’m not committed to getting better.” Custis is seeking similar success for the Saints. Last year’s roster fillers amassed a 6-5 mark, the school’s first winning campaign since ’06, with the target collecting 29 catches for 628 yards and nine touchdowns. He earned a First-Team All-Catholic offensive selection, like brother Sharif, now a redshirt freshman at the University of Massachusetts, and a Second-Team defensive back nod. He nabbed two balls in the Saints’ 35-12 victory over Horace Furness High School, 1900 S. Third St., Aug. 30 and will look to take his team to a 2-1 record Saturday against host Chester. “I’m happy I committed early so I can be stress-free and concentrate o n t h i s s e a s o n ,”

215-969-5834 NoveNas PRAYER novena to the holy spirit

Holy Spirit, You who solve all problems, light all roads, so that I can attain my goal. You gave me the divine gift to forgive and forget all evil against me and that in all instances of my life You are with me. I want in this short prayer to thank You for all things as You confirm once again that I never want to be separated from You even in spite of all material illusions. I wish to be with You in eternal glory. Thank You for your mercy towards me and mine. This prayer must be said for three days and after three days the favor will be granted. The prayer must be published immediately.
