Counterpoints To the Editor: Well, I see the debate continues regarding certain pessimistic opinions about education in this city by Jason Kaye (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not adding up,â&#x20AC;? Sept. 26). Without mentioning any expertise for drawing such conclusions, Kaye bases his cynical view on certain statistics that he claims prove that Philadelphia has a â&#x20AC;&#x153;failing school system that has been on the decline for several decades.â&#x20AC;? Full disclosure: I am a retired senior, a career Philadelphia school teacher with multiple degrees and certificates plus 36 yearsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; teaching experience in parochial and public schools from kindergarten to eighth grade. I am presently mentoring pre-teaching undergraduate students for Temple University. I have actually lived through those decades that Kaye says were a slippery slope for city schools. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s discuss his numbers, shall

we? He says that the high school graduation rate is â&#x20AC;&#x153;well under 70 percent.â&#x20AC;? That is an average of course. That means that half the high schools have rates higher than 70 percent and half are below. Magnet schools like Masterman, Central, Girard Academic Music Program, and Carver have rates in the high 90s. Are the teachers at Masterman, with its 100 percent graduation rate, superior to the teachers at Furness, with just over 50 percent graduating? Or could it have something to do with the fact that Masterman screens all its students for academic ability, attendance and behavior? Kaye makes an especially disingenuous comment about the percentage of the adult population in Philadelphia that holds a bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree. He quotes a statistic of 25 percent. Again, we are talking about an average between the very young and the

very old and including speakers of other languages. We also must consider the factor of college affordability for those who otherwise qualify. I would reassure all businesses planning to locate in Philadelphia to check, not with Kaye, but with a 2013 study by the PEW Charitable Trusts, which separates college graduation rates by age groups. It reports that city residents in the 25 to 34 age group, presumably the population most currently in the job market, have a combined bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree rate of 37.5 percent, which is 6 points higher than the national average. Not bad for a city in â&#x20AC;&#x153;decline.â&#x20AC;? The point is that, contrary to Kayeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gloomy assessment, and in spite of a lack of resources or encouragement from an anti-public school, pro-prison governor, Philadelphia schools have continued to make historic progress. Now is not the time to starve them or divert their funding into for-profit privatization schemes. Gloria C. Endres South Philadelphia

â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is ridiculous. They are acting like third graders, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m only a taxpayer. My voice doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean anything. â&#x20AC;? Tony Pinto, 10th and Morris streets

To the Editor: Earlier this month I traveled to Washington D.C. with hundreds of fellow advocates, cancer patients, survivors and their loved ones from across the country who volunteer for the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network. We called on Congress to support legislation that emphasizes patientsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; quality of life during treatment for a serious disease such as cancer. No one with cancer should suffer needlessly from pain, nausea or other symptoms of their treatment as their doctors concentrate on treating their disease. I met with [U.S. Rep. Bob] Brady and asked him to co-sponsor two bills currently introduced in Congress to protect cancer patientsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; quality of life. The Palliative Care and Hospice Education and Training Act (House Bill 1339) would award grants to encourage training and continuing education for students and existing health professionals in the field of palliative care. The Patient Centered Quality of Life Act (House Bill 1666) would improve the experience of cancer patients and their families by better coordinating their care and addressing the often debilitating symptoms of treatment. Through this commitment, Brady can be a leader in supporting a health care delivery model that treats the person beyond the disease.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The government always waits until the last minute, but will eventually come to a compromise. I wish they could resolve these issues sooner, but this is the way our government runs.â&#x20AC;? Joseph Matozzo, 11th and Wolf streets

An East Passyunk Crossing robbery cost a patriarch his life last week. ■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

enturing to Las Rosas Bakery, 1712 S. Eighth St., 4:15 a.m. Sept. 26 to visit relatives who run the establishment, Jose Gabino Aparacio began to talk with a cousin when a bicyclist interrupted the two and tried to take his backpack, Officer Jill Russell of the Police Public Affairs Unit said. When the 22-year-old resident of the 1800 block of South Rosewood Street resisted, the offender inflicted a gunshot wound to his back and torso and made off with the desired item, a cell phone and money, leaving his ride behind to flee east, with witnesses last seeing him on the 700 block of Watkins Street. Following a transport to Thomas Jefferson Hospital, Aparacio died at 4:36 a.m. The bakery and other businesses caught surveillance tape of the shooter, Russell said, with witnesses describing him as black, 5-foot-3 and in his 20s; and wearing a dark hoodie and pants. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

based on surveillance video and television broadcasts, officers arrived at McDonald’s, 125 Oregon Ave., Sept. 25 and arrested 39-year-old Mark Sierra and 32-year-old Nicole Dinardo, both Mark Sierra of the 400 block of Ritner Street. The two allegedly broke into a vehicle while its owner shopped at Ikea, 2206 S. Columbus Blvd., Sept. 21, lifting a purse that contained credit Nicole Dinardo cards, police said. The duo made subsequent purchases at a few locations, including Wawa, 1600 S. Columbus Blvd., before using a motorcycle to flee south along the store’s thoroughfare. Authorities charged the individuals, who await an Oct. 10 preliminary hearing, with theft and related offenses. They had not posted their $5,000 bail as of press time.

What a gem!

Relative distress A Point Breeze resident visiting a relative ended up killed Sept. 26. At 10 p.m., shortly after speaking with other men in the backyard of his grandmother’s home on the 2600 block of Wolf Street, Terrell Nelson, of the 1800 block of South 20th Street, suffered a gunshot wound to the face, Officer Jill Russell of the Police Public Affairs Unit said. Personnel transported the victim, who was to stand trial on drug charges later this month and whose rap sheet contained 13 priors, according to court documents and reports, to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, where he died moments later. Authorities, believing an argument was the motive, had no suspects as of press time, Russell said. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Ordering an arrest Numerous anonymous tips led to the arrest of a pair of suspects from a Whitmansituated theft. Following the receipt of the information

Surveillance video

Police are looking for assistance in catching a suspect from a Queen Village robbery. Shortly after entering the Lacquer Lounge Nail Bar & Boutique, 501 Fitzwater St., at 8:35 p.m. Friday, an unknown male, having had his request to keep the store open for 20 more minutes denied by the first complainant, produced a knife and declared “This is a stickup,” Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The frightened female ran back toward the register, with the offender following her and demanding her wedding band. He then took her earrings and watch before ripping a necklace off a second female and requesting the latter’s bracelet and watch, too, Tolliver said. After gathering the possessions, he fled on foot, last observed traveling east on Fitzwater Street.

POLICE REPORT The complainants described the suspect as white, 5-foot-10 to 6-foot-1, darkhaired and thin; wearing a black or darkgray hoodie, baggy jeans and a baseball cap; possibly having acne or acne scarring on his face; and armed with a black military or Ka-Bar knife. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Daylight daring A brazen individual chose a daytime date with lawbreaking in Hawthorne Saturday. While waiting for a bus at 11:45 a.m. on the 800 block of South 12th Street, the complainant had a gun-brandishing stranger approach him and pin him against a wall, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The weapon holder stated “Give me your money, or I’ll kill you,” leading the victim to part with his wallet, which contained $100, identification and a SEPTA transpass. Suffering no injuries, he observed the offender fleeing northbound on 12th Street, Tolliver said. He described his attacker as a black male, age 18 to 20, 5-foot-10, thin, clean shaven and dark-complected; wearing a Gap baseball hat, a white long-sleeve shirt, dark jeans and white sneakers. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

A quick-thinking complainant helped authorities to nab her offender last week in West Passyunk. Holding two bags and a jacket in one hand with her purse around her arm, the female was walking near the intersection of Wolf and Hemberger streets at 4:50 p.m. Sept. 24 when an unknown male approached from behind and grabbed her purse, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Following a struggle, she dropped her items, with the alleged offender scooping up the purse and fleeing on foot. She flagged down a police officer, who, after a brief chase halted, her alleged attacker’s progress, with positive identification leading to the recovery of the handbag and the arrest of Christopher Belton, Tolliver said. Authorities charged the 25-year-old resident of the 2300 block of South Bonsall Street with robbery and theft. He awaits an Oct. 10 preliminary hearing.

Risk for rims A daring driver made off with valuable SEPTA equipment in Marconi Friday.

An employee of the transit provider noted that upon entering the SEPTA depot at 1940 Johnston St., he observed an unknown motorist attempting to turn around, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. As the intruder was finishing his turn, the worker saw a SEPTA bus rim fall from his truck. The interloper sped toward the bus in an attempt to escape the depot but failed in the venture and crashed into the vehicle and a side wall. The thief then fled the area through another exit, with an undetermined number of rims, each valued at $600, Tolliver said. A detailed description of the offender was not available at press time. .

Triple trouble A vehicle-operating accomplice helped two attackers to make off with goods in Queen Village Friday. After exiting her vehicle on the 1000 block of South Third Street at 9:15 p.m., the complainant noticed two males walking toward her, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Once they had moved to opposite sides of the pavement to force her to walk between them, the first offender grabbed one of her bags, with a struggle ensuing. Pushing her against a wall, the attacker tried to nab a second bag, causing the victim to scream. The second offender pulled a knife and waved it over his head, with the complainant continuing to battle the first figure, temporarily delaying their escape in a tan Honda Civic with tinted windows northbound along Third Street toward Christian, Tolliver said. The complainant, who suffered a minor cut to her right hand, lost credit and debit cards, makeup, shoes, a check, an iPad and an iPad mini. She described both attackers as Hispanic, 25 to 30; with the first being 5-foot-6, wearing a dark blue hoodie and a baseball cap; and the second as 5-foot-10, wearing a black shirt, sporting a goatee and having a fade-style haircut. She provided no details on the driver. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Opening the treasure chest

Weekend highlight

The Mummers Parade may be a 112-year-old New Year’s Day tradition, but the story behind it is on full display at a Pennsport facility. ■ Bill Gelman Review Editor

he Mummers Parade might be a once-a-year event, but a small, multicolored brick building that sits on the corner of Second Street and Washington Avenue keeps the story line owing with a treasured collection of Mummers’ paraphernalia and memorabilia, including some costumes dating back to the turn of the 20th Century. Rusty Martz is so passionate about the Mummers Museum, 1100 S. Second St., that he has been calling it his home away from home for the past 38 years. He fills the dual titles of president of the board and museum CEO, which typically involves spending 20 to 30 hours a week at the Pennsport-based landmark. “Believe me when I tell you I would like to spend so much more [time],” Martz said. “I can’t stop feeling the history every time I walk in the doors.” Saturday, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., the facility will be offering free tours as part of the inaugural Family Fun Day, which is being presented by the South Philly Review, the museum and the Mummers Fancy Brigade Association. The normal $3.50 admission fee will be waived. Some of the recent renovations, including fresh coats of paint to the inside and some exterior work, are being put on full display for first-time visitors. It’s just the beginning to a longterm plan to generate new life into the aging building. “Our plans are to ‘liven the ol’ girl up,’” Martz said. “Over the next number of months, inside renovations will continue as we want to make the Museum a neighborhood destination as it was back in the late 1970s and early ’80’s, but with the 2015 look and appeal.” ONE THING THAT has remained the same over the years is the $3.50 entry fee, which dates back to the 1970s. The board could’ve easily increased the price to help cover improvements to the facility, but the group has voted to keep things simple. “We never wanted to make admission the reason not to visit, so we stuck with the $3.50 price for years,” Martz said. “Members [$15 a year] get free admission and a number of free passes for guests every year. The board has even recently discussed lowering the price.”

The facility also hosts a free outdoor string band concert series during the warmer weather months of May through September. With Center City landmarks such as the Franklin Institute, the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the National Constitution Center being a few of the more popular tourist destinations, the smaller, not-aswell-known Mummers’ site may not make the must-see attraction list. Competing with those bigger city landmarks is not on the board’s to-do list. Instead, the focus is on using the multi-floor space, which is open 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesdays through Sundays, to tell the Mummer story through old parade footage, colorful costumes and pictures. Being a constantly evolving, more-than-a century-old tradition means there will be new chapters to add to the display. “We would like to bring more life to the museum,” Martz said. “... I want the visitor to feel the same excitement that Mummers share with the spectators on [South] Broad Street every New Year’s Day as they walk

into the museum. This idea certainly isn’t that much of a reach; it’s just going to take some financial help. It’s something I vision, and so want to accomplish in the very near future.” The board also is looking into ways to show support for each of the five Mummers divisions. With Martz’s never-dying passion leading the way, the future of the Mummers Museum is shining like those New Year’s Day costumes. “I somehow developed an inner-drive or love for the Mummers once I learned about the history of the tradition,” Martz said. “This tradition dates back to Europe well before the birth of our great country. Once you mix that with my love for the city, it’s easy to become passionate about the Mummers and the museum.” SPR For more information, visit mummersmuseum.com.

ith temperatures expected to soar into the low 80s once again Saturday, there is no reason to stay cramped inside the house. The South Philly Review, the Mummers Museum and the Mummers Fancy Brigade Association are inviting all of our neighbors down to Second Street and Washington Avenue for the first annual Family Fun Day. A flea market kicks off the festivities at 9 a.m., and continues until 3 p.m. As of Tuesday, more than 50 tables had been reserved for the event. Family Fun Day, which is free to enter, gets under way at 11 a.m. Wristbands ($10) for children 2 and over will be available to purchase, and will include unlimited use of the bounce houses and a free face painting. Food and beverages also will be available for purchase. The Mummers Museum, 1100 S. Second St., also will be offering free tours throughout the afternoon. Rusty Martz, who serves as president of the board and CEO, said he is hoping the experience will help get people reacquainted with the landmark. When his team was approached about hosting this debut event over the summer, Martz didn’t hesitate about participating. “We’re neighbors, all part of this great Philly family,” he said. “Let’s have a little fun, a get-to-know-one-another. Let’s have a weather-perfect day full of fun and safety.” Second Street, between Washington Avenue and Federal Street, will be closed from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Free parking is available under Interstate 95. For more information, call 215-336-2500.

CHAUCER STREET FIRE

N E W S B R I E F S

they united to save an elderly women from a Packer Park-situated fire that damaged four houses. On this night, instinct simply kicked in as the men in blue teamed up for the heroic rescue mission. About 6:22 that evening, the officers observed smoke coming from 3239 Chaucer St. Pignataro was about a block away while Sullivan said he was across Broad Street, about six or seven blocks away. “I just wanted to get to the location to see if I could help with fire rescue,” Sullivan said. “I pulled up and [the neighbors] said ‘There is a lady in the house, there is a lady in the house.’ “I saw Dan at the door assessing the situation. Once you assess the situation, you see how quickly the fire is moving.” Inside the dwelling was an 103-year-old resident, whose name has not been released. With the fire moving quickly, Pignataro and Sullivan went to the front door and attempted to remove the resident from harm. But when the lady refused to open her door, as she responded “No, hun my house isn’t on fire,” the rescue team had to call an audible to the escape plan. The metal bars on the front door didn’t exactly help the situation. The duo attempted to enter through a pair of French doors, with Pignataro breaking the glass while Sullivan put his soccer background to use by kicking in the door. “Once we got in, and I saw the lady, I physically got a hold of her,” Pignataro said. “OK, she is safe now.” They checked the residence to see if there were more people present. The victim refused medical attention and did not suffer any visible injuries. Both ofcers were treated and released at Methodist Hospital. THE FIRE MARSHALL has determined the cause of the fire, which started at 3241 Chaucer Street, to be smoking. It originated on the exterior deck of the three-story unit and extended to three other occupied dwellings, Fire Commissioner Lloyd Ayers said. The incident was declared under control at 7:28 p.m. Hard-wired smoke alarms were present and activated. On this night, neither officer hesitated about taking on the not-part-of-the-jobdescription task. The basic approach is to stay low, avoid breathing the bad smoke and get out as quickly as possible. They simply stepped up in the time of need. The officers have not spoken to the elderly victim since the rescue, but a week following the incident, they were sending along their well wishes. “I hope she feels better,” Sullivan, who

is a resident of Port Richmond, said. “We would do it again, not just as police officers, but as human beings.” Pignataro, a Bridesburg resident, shared a similar sentiment. “I try not to think about it too much,” he said. “It had to be done. I would definitely do it again.” More importantly, as scary as the incident was, no one died or suffered any serious injuries. Sullivan and Pignataro were able to return home later that night to their respective families and reflect on the hard-

A Dickinson Square West performer is exploring theater’s communal qualities in a music-heavy production.

■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

ond of focusing on how theatrical works could foster the future of communication, actress Kristen Bailey must address the perils of perpetually pondering the past in White Pines Productions’ “The Music You Remember.” In portraying Sally, the resident of the 1600 block of South Fifth Street is transforming from an ensemble member for two thriving companies to a leading lady, furthering her calling as a provider of positivity. “I’m this female energy that shakes him up and puts

S t a f f p h o t o b y K at h r y n P o o l e

him back in touch with authenticity,” the 28-year-old said of playing a teaching assistant who strives to rejuvenate a downtrodden, soon-to-be unemployed music professor through a supernatural journey to craft a look at his allegiance to lyrical themes from 1960s songs. “I’m happy to support the play’s ideas, especially understanding intense moments of human connection.” The Dickinson Square West dweller came to the attention of the project’s overseers, including author and actor Jerry Perna, through Newbold resident and Bearded Ladies Cabaret and Applied Mechan-

ics colleague Mary Tuomanen. Fresh off the former group’s fall staging of the Marlene Dietrich homage “Marlene and the Machine,” Bailey again found herself needing to analyze time-tested tunes, with her current charge yielding a more cautionary message. “I confided that I totally identify with them and kind of hate myself for that,” Bailey laughingly said of the show’s simplicity-craving numbers. “We proceeded to situate the work into the theater scene and see how to tackle the media’s influence on our lives, especially musically.” A prolific writer, director and performer, Perna, of

LIFESTYLES Port Richmond, plays the forlorn academic in the piece, running through Oct. 20 at Center City’s Adrienne Theatre. Based on fond reception of a truncated spring version, he and the local thespian united in August to perfect the script, which the latter likens to creations from her involvement with the Bearded Ladies, particularly its reliance on music and call for personal evaluations. Treating the battle between keeping one’s distance and seeking lasting unions, “The Music You Remember” enlists Bailey to expound upon the rewards of abandoning inhibitions and strengthening resolve. Used to presenting positive perspectives to her companies’ dynamics, she is experiencing novelty as a standout presence but is straying from hubris. “I’m a team player,” she said of promoting her peers. “With ‘The Music You Remember,’ my responsibilities have changed, but I’m still trying to be a storyteller with a love for getting people to think beyond themselves.” THE CREATIVITY-CRAVING ENTERTAINER has found theater fascinating since childhood. She debuted as an 8-year-old in her home state of Utah and has never shaken the stage’s allure, constantly coveting place-

“

ment in her fluid field. “I don’t believe I could do any other job,” Bailey said. “This makes me feel good, as I’m able to do what appeals to me and share my interest in originating material and experimenting with how we look at ourselves and others.” While a high school student, the evolving thinker enjoyed absurdist and existential works, with Samuel Beckett’s “Waiting for Godot” a key cerebral piece. Her secondary years also engendered a political mindset that spawned an attraction to street productions, with her next stop at the University of Utah, through which she earned a bachelor of fine arts degree from its actor training program, intensifying a journey that includes schooling in Paris. “I like it because it’s risky, wild, aggressive and in-your-face,” Bailey said of studying Butoh, an intense dance form, in the French capital, with stilts mastery, clowning tutelage and Lecoq instruction making her a greater commodity. Another in-your-face format, the Fr-

ingeArts Festival, captured her attention last decade, with its shows’ often provocative nature blending with her avant-garde disposition. Relocating to the City of Brotherly Love nearly four years ago, Bailey has advanced her strong pull toward shared experiences and what she dubs “This is our life” moments. “It’s been great to jump into working machines and play my part in helping them fulfill their aspirations,” she said of pursuing ingenuity and integrity. The Bearded Ladies have benefited from her ambition through such shows as the aforementioned Dietrich tribute; “Beards are for Shaving: A 007 Cabaret”; and “Wide Awake: A Civil War Cabaret,” an entry in the spring’s Philadelphia International Festival of the Arts. Having commenced her affiliation with Applied Mechanics through the ’09 FringeArts pageant, Bailey has advanced the troupe’s multi-sensory, choose-one’s-own-adventure approach through pieces like “Vainglorious: The Epic Feats of Notable Persons in Europe After the Revolution,”

I like it because it’s risky, wild, aggressive and in-your-face.

”

another PIFA piece, and “Holly’s Dead Soldiers (A Breakfast Play)” in which she played Truman Capote’s beloved creation Holly Golightly during this year’s FringeArts celebration. “I’m striving to help the art form to survive,” the talent, whose résumé also includes directing duties for the ’11 FringeArts presentation of “Checkers” at the Fleisher Art Memorial, 719 Catharine St., said. Bailey, whose upcoming endeavors will include an operatic cabaret centering on Andy Warhol and an investigation of the controversial Russian punk rockers Pussy Riot, especially wants for younger generations to see theater’s appeal, but no matter what years are attached to viewers’ birth certificates, she wants to create a symbiosis between patrons and performers. “I would love to find space to hold shows with that focus,” she said. “We have to evolve past the whole ‘Great show’ and ‘Thank you, thanks for coming’ set of exchanges. We could strengthen communities through more theater.” SPR Visit whitepinesproductions.org. Contact Managing Editor Joseph Myers at jmyers@southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

the same time, they can be clannish beyond belief with a small town mind-set that is inherently suspicious of anything and everything that is not just like them. They live in their little enclaves, seemingly too insecure to deal with the outside world. They hate it when that outside world seems to encroach on their own space. An example of that is the criticism I hear from some South Philadelphians about the changes that have come to East Passyunk Avenue. They moan, “Oh what has happened to Passyunk Avenue?” as if it has been irretrievably lost. What has happened to East Passyunk Avenue is that it has been saved from the oblivion that threatened the area not too many years ago. What was once a dying business section, hopelessly lost in the past, a place deserted by the very folks who complain about the way it has now changed, has become the hot spot for dining in Philadelphia. Most of the new creative restaurants are no longer springing up in Center City, but right here under our noses, on East Passyunk Avenue. While the entire region rejoices at the renaissance that is taking place in our area, some of us see only the intrusion of people who are not replicas of our own small world. While food critics from all over the nation are now praising the food scene in Philadelphia, some of our people still believe that the only place to dine out is across the bridge. That leads me to a few words about some of your criticism leveled at our own food critic. Phyllis Stein-Novack has neither asked nor needs me to defend her from her critics who gripe when she reviews a restaurant that is not strictly within the confines of South Philadelphia. But her critics are often part of the insularity being discussed in this column. Most of these restaurants are within a half hour of their door (less if they used a bus or subway, but perish the thought that they would use public transportation; they would rather complain about not being able to find a parking spot or the high prices Center City parking lots charge). Reading their constant complaints, you would think these restaurants were eight hours instead of 18 minutes from their homes. And there’s the economic benefit of spending money here to boost our economy. But the most egregious part of their insularity is not which restaurants they patronize or where they shop; it is in not appreciating the unique history of their own city and their failure to involve their children or grandchildren in sharing the adventure that is Philadelphia. No other American city can tell us more about who we are as a people and where we came from than Philadelphia. It’s time for them to leave the cocoon.

Barbara (Scarlett Johansson), from left, looks to establish a lasting union with the porn-obsessed Jon (Joseph Gordon-Levitt).

Trials of love ■ By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

ften adopting the form of the popular media it aims to skewer, “Don Jon” unfolds like a pop song, with repeated riffs and verses that aggressively push it forward. If you’ve seen the trailer, you know that the literary-inspired lead character, Jon, a “Joisey” caricature played by debut writer/ director Joseph Gordon-Levitt, cares about only a few things in life: his body, his pad, his ride, his boys, his girls, his family, his church, and his precious, addictive porn. Each of these things is countlessly repeated in a sort of feature-length, audiovisual checklist, with every power-up sound of a porn-enabling laptop subsequently matched with yet another trip to the confession box. For a while, “Don Jon” proves to be the rare film that actually benefits from a lack of nuance. The shallow, plainspoken nature of its aforementioned pieces, coupled with invigoratingly brisk editing, succeeds at conveying the shallowness of Jon’s dayto-day, while also yielding age-old, echoing comic returns. Prone to serial one-night stands but preferring porn for its fantasy qualities, Jon sees his world shaken up when he catches sight of bombshell Barbara Sugarman, a fellow regional stereotype played with glorious commitment by Scarlett Johansson. Barbara seems like she could be “the one,” a philosophy the über-primped gal appreciates thanks to her Hollywood rom-com obsession, but she has control freak issues that prove troubling (and her flesh-and-blood presence can’t break the virtual-sex habit). While he’s no sage when it comes to assessing our objectification-filled culture, Gordon-Levitt shows a sure hand in crafting an enormously fun satire, and deftly express-

es how Barbara’s own viewing practices can be just as personally damaging as Jon’s. “Don Jon” ultimately runs off course with the introduction of Esther (Julianne Moore), a middle-aged widow from a night class John’s taking, who winds up teaching the young buck — first-hand, so to speak —how to gain human sexual connection truly. The obvious wisdom Esther imparts feels like a cheap and counter-productive corrective to everything that preceded it — a tacked-on coda that tries, in vain, to deepen what was coasting along just fine on the surface.

Not into Joss Whedon’s genre material? Like “The Avengers” or TV’s “Agents of Shield”? Perhaps you’d like to try the fanboy favorite’s take on Shakespeare. In his adaptation of The Bard’s classic comedy, Whedon opts for a black-andwhite palette, and a tone that’s reminiscent of screwball Hollywood flicks of the 1940s. The writer-director packs his cast with past collaborators (Nathan Fillion, Clark Gregg) and new arrivals (Amy Acker, Alexis Denisof), who make for an ace ensemble.

any suburbanites have a false perception about South Philadelphia and Philadelphia in general. Their entire perception of the city is gathered from the crime reported on TV news. They envision South Philly as a place dominated by mob hits and fights over parking spots. We, as South Philadelphians, are rightly angered by that stereotype. In our righteous anger, some South Philadelphians are guilty of the same blind spot when it comes to our city. In some ways, some of you wear the same blinders as those critical suburbanites. You can be every bit as insular. It is shameful that too many South Philadelphians know little about their own city. They will travel far and wide and appreciate the unique culture that other cities here and abroad have to offer and never realize the treasure that lies minutes away from their own homes. Many South Philadelphians believe that life begins and ends in their neighborhoods and South Jersey. I have nothing against South Jersey. Without South Jersey, there would be no seashore. I am not against shopping in South Jersey malls, but there is something wrong when you live here and have never shopped in the city. How can someone raise kids here without ever taking them to the Philadelphia Museum of Art or Independence Hall? Why is it some of you will go to New York for a Broadway show, but never once have stepped inside one of our own theaters? Whether you like classical music or not, how can you live around these parts and never experienced a performance by the Philadelphia Orchestra? How is it they never took their kids to see the Christmas show at John Wanamaker’s — now Macy’s? Why do so many of the folks down here think that the entirety of Philadelphia is wrapped around its sports teams? How can they blame the rural legislators in the western part of our state for thinking that Philly is a Babylon of crime and corrupt politics when so many of our own citizens feel the same way? Remember that phrase, he or she has never been above Broad and Snyder? Incredibly, that criticism is not only figurative, but literal as well for some South Philadelphians. These are not bad people. Many of them embody the very attributes that are all too often missing in American life — love of family, solid values, and generosity. They are the strength of our nation. At

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

ur city has some of the finest pizza this side of paradise. I counted the weeks before my first taste of Marc Vetri’s pizza at his month-old pizzeria on Callowhill Street just across the street from the Barnes Foundation. Pizzeria Vetri is an airy space with simple, long tables and a counter where patrons can watch several men stretch dough, top the pies with the finest ingredients and place them in the oven before they are lovingly brought out piping hot. The restaurant was filled to capacity, inside and outside, so Edward and I decided to do take-out and make a return visit a few days later. The crudo pizza ($18) was packed with flavor. Thinly-sliced, slightly salty imported prosciutto was the star of the pie along with bufala mozzarella and ParmigianoReggiano. The thin-and-crisp crust was slightly charred, which imparted a smoky flavor that was most enjoyable. The Italian Caesar salad ($10) was an interesting twist to this starter that appears on hundreds of menus. Slightly bitter, crisp escarole served as a bed for hard-cooked eggs, anchovies, Parmigiano-Reggiano and croutons fashioned from bits of pizza dough. Since this was a take-out order, the bagna cauda dressing was served on the side. Bagna cauda is a warm, buttery dip, laced with olive oil, and used as a dip for vegetables in Italy. The flavors melded beautifully as soon as we dressed the tossed the salad. Arugula salad ($8) was another tasty dish. Spicy baby arugula was topped with Coffee/Café/Sweets Caffe Chicco: 2532 S.

small slices of fingerling potatoes that were cooled before serving. A scattering of small and salty black olives were included for texture and topped with a pesto dressing. On the dine-in visit, Edward and I arrived early to insure seats at the counter. I sipped a glass of Indie Wineries N2 Rosso ($9.50), a dry, slightly spicy red while Edward tried the Gotham Project Pinot Grigio ($8.50). Both are available by the carafe as well. The rotolo ($3.50 each) is a “specialita della casa.” Do not miss this unusual treat made from pizza dough. They looked like savory cinnamon buns. The dough was layered with imported mortadella, studded with pistachio nuts, light and creamy ricotta cheese and rolled up. They are topped with pesto made with roasted pistachio nuts and served. This was a first for me. I have never seen these savory treats anywhere and they whetted my appetite for the next course. Wood oven salad ($12) consisted of roasted sweet corn, heady chanterelle mushrooms (my favorite), green beans, prosciutto cotta and another favorite, ricotta salata. One may not think these ingredients would work together, but they certainly did. The flavors and textures of the vegetables were not overpowered by the prosciutto, and I enjoyed the inclusion of the cheese. I never tried ricotta salata in a salad; I usually eat it at the end of dinner with some fruit. Next up was the salsiccia ($16), a pizza prepared with fennel sausage, roasted fennel, tomato sauce and mozzarella. Thinlysliced fennel imparts a marvelous licorice flavor and aroma when eaten with bits of Restaurant Review:

sausage. I appreciate the use of about one ladleful of tomato sauce on the pizzas at Pizzeria Vetri. Too much sauce can overpower the other ingredients. The calzone ($16) was the only disappointment. We found the tomato sauce made the dough soggy. A bit more ricotta and prosciutto were needed. Pizzeria Vetri is a family restaurant. One man carried his baby in a snuggly while kids were having fun tucking into pizza. We found the noise coming from the sound system to be distracting.

Ela’s Pretzeled Risotto

ason Cichonski is quickly becoming a rising star of the cooking world. He is on the current season of Bravo’s

Chef Jason Cichonski

Ela Owners: Jason Cichonski and Chip Roman Opened November 2011 627 S. Third St. 267-687-8512 elaphilly.com

hit reality program “Top Chef.” While the chef and co-owner of the Queen Village-based Ela, 627 S. Third St., may have to keep his television story under wraps, there is nothing secret about the Bucks County native’s rise to Philadelphia cooking stardom. The Restaurant School at Walnut Hill College grad, at the ripe age of 24, served as executive chef at Lacroix at the Rittenhouse. “There was a lot of pressure because people didn’t think I had the experience or was capable of doing it,” the resident of 12th and Anin streets, who fell in love with food as a teenager, said. “People at that hotel had a deep belief in my ability.” It paved the way for bigger opportunities, which included partnering with chef Chip Roman on the Chestnut Hill-based Mica. In November 2011, the team joined forces once again to open the 60seat Ela, which is described as an inventive American bar and

restaurant. It’s where Cichonski can be found just about any day of the week tucked away in his kitchen. “It’s a lot of work,” he said. “It actually very recently clicked that I have to act more like an owner than a chef. I have to worry about numbers, service, food and beverage.” He did take a brief break from his non-stop schedule to share his Pretzeled Risotto recipe.

Staff Photos by Kathryn Poole

7 tablespoons of butter 1/3 cup of honey 1/2 teaspoon of salt

DIRECTIONS: Carefully mix the 7.5 cups of water with the lye until it is dissolved. Blanch the rice in boiling water for five minutes, and drain. Soak the rice in the lye for one minute. Drain, and rinse. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Spread the mixture on a baking sheet, and bake for eight min-

utes. Sweat the onions with the 3/4 pounds of butter. Add the rice and the remaining water, stirring constantly for about 10 minutes. Cook until a risotto consistency is formed. For the cheese mixture, heat cream, and pour over the other ingredients, mixing well until everything is smooth and incorporated. Refrigerate for at least two hours to firm, and use when needed.

COUNCILMAN – 2ND DISTRICT

In a letter dated September 13, 2013, I “was informed that SPC Corporation has advised the City of Philadelphia Department of Public Health that it will cease operating the industrial scrap metal shredder at its facility at 2600 Penrose Ave. SPC will continue non-shedder related activities at the facility. Special thanks to the South Philadelphia community for its tireless efforts to address this quality of life issue. Especially the advocacy of State Representative Maria Donatucci, Sonny Duca and Andrew Rosser of the Reserve at Packer Park, the Packer Park Civic Association, and many other members of the South Philadelphia community, and the City of Philadelphia Department of Public Health for its contribution to a positive resolution.

Happy feet Local youngsters capped a national soccer initiative by displaying their skills at a Dickinson Square West facility. ■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

Capitolo Playground-centered children ventured a few blocks from their Passyunk Square facility to receive instruction from state personnel. S ta f f p h o t o b y K at h r y n P o o l e

THAT THE ELEMENTARY school learner wishes for an extended foot-fueled career delights Mike Barr, especially because of John’s minority status. The Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer director of coaching has come to decry the perception of soccer as an elitist sport catering mostly to Caucasians. “That’s a bit political but everything

seems that way to many people,” Barr said, noting that those from all socioeconomic statuses, especially the poor, love his game. “Because of the children out here today, I think the people in charge are doing a great service to the community.” Regardless of any child’s characteristics, his organization has spent the last 41 years touting soccer’s benefits to schools and households in 36 counties. It lands participants through competitions, coaching clinics, educational programs and workshops, doing so at an especially key stage, with millions of figures ages 5 to 19 regularly participating in the sport, according to US Youth Soccer. Barr and his colleagues devoted last month’s travels to seeing that inner-city, special-needs, recreational and accomplished parties learn how to put their passion to use and further the soccer revolution. “It’s definitely still something Americans haven’t fully caught on to,” Frank Reilly, who handles registration and scheduling for Capitolo, said. “It requires so much skill, though, that they should really fall for it as hard as they do other sports.” The resident of the 400 block of Ritner Street played the primary cheerleader as Barr orchestrated sessions, with music, mostly Latin American selections, determining the length of each station time. Designed for children ages 8 to 12, the festival drew dozens of Capitolo-enrolled individuals,

at southphillyreview.com/blogs.php with students from Horace Furness High School, 1900 S. Third St., looking on before engaging in their own spirited contests. Receiving pins, stickers, tattoos and magazines for their efforts, the children hated to see the gathering end, though Irvin Pineta knew what he would make of the instruction time. “I feel very happy to be out here to promote soccer,” the 12-year-old seventhgrade pupil at St. Thomas Aquinas Mission School, 1719 Morris St., said shortly after a frenetic period with his Tuzos peers, whom he captains. “Learning skills is great, too.” The resident of the 1600 block of Wharton Street also began playing with his family and has enjoyed a four-year stay at Capitolo. Also fostering professional aspirations, he thanked his guests for strengthening his ambition and believes the training will turn around what thus far has proven a stalled start to the season for him and his contemporaries. “I made the decision to play because I think it’s a great opportunity for me,” Irvin said. “If there are other kids who want to show off [their skills], they should sign up.” SPR Visit epysa.org.

hough at the impressionable age of 10, John Quiroz believes he has found his vocation. The nimble striker glided across the field at Sacks Playground, 400 Washington Ave., Friday as a participant in South Philly’s celebration of the 11th annual National Youth Soccer Month, bonding with peers and picking up tips to better his already impressive game. “It’s so cool being here,” the 10-year-old fourth-grader at Andrew Jackson School, 1213 S. 12th St., said between activities. “I’m having fun and so is everyone else.” The sixth-year player and resident of the 1300 block of East Passyunk Avenue gained the opportunity to experience the late afternoon revelry through Ruth Bull, founder of the International Tuzos Philadelphia Soccer Academy and president of Tuzos Capitolo, which operates out of Capitolo Playground, 900 Federal St. Eager to foster athletic dreams for local children, especially her fellow Mexicans, she made outreach to the Plymouth Meeting-headquartered Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer to score its backing and attendance. “What a great day, too, for us to come together!” the resident of the 1300 block of Dickinson Street said as light breezes and ample sunshine combined with the children’s enthusiasm to make the twohour gathering a pleasant promotion for the thriving youth participation sport. A member of her homeland’s 2000 Sydney Olympic Games squad, Bull oversees hundreds of youths participating in five

age categories. Having first focused on adult competitors, she last year decided to give their offspring and other budding bodies a chance to add their names to the more than 130,000 performers whom Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer annually assists, succeeding in part due to her friendship with former Philadelphia Parks & Recreation Department District 7 manager Steve Goldman. With Sacks often a site for competition, the overseers selected the Dickinson Square West recreation spot as the space for John and his Tuzos teammates to reinforce the alliterative messages of Youth Soccer Month, fitness, fun, family and friendship. As the third element bred his interest in the sport, the Passyunk Square dweller looked forward to making his relatives proud and moving many steps closer to his dream of depositing goals for a world-class club. “Real Madrid would be nice,” John said of the Spanish powerhouse, adding fellow giants FC Barcelona and AC Milan as more than suitable alternatives. “I’m just excited to get better and play with my friends.”
