Word on the Street

E d i t o r ’s n o t e

Who do you admire most and why?

What’s the Difference?

“I really look up to my friend because she is probably [the only] person I know that has no vices. In a time where there is more temptation than ever, she has been able to maintain a healthy lifestyle for so long. I think that is something we should all strive to do.�

Andres Morales, 15th and Jackson streets “I’d have to say our military personnel. I admire their dedication and honor to represent and defend our country. It makes me proud what they stand for.�

Bob McBreaty, Third and Porter streets

“Our governor, Ed Rendell, because of all the things he does to reach out to the community. He spoke at my church and I thought it was a nice thing for him to do.�

Cathy Flumer, 21st and Christian streets

“I admire my mom. She has gone through a lot of issues and she’s still been able to be there for the family.

Her triumphs through adversity have taught us to be strong even through hard times.�

Christina Carangi, 19th Street and Snyder Avenue

I

t all started about a year ago.

Sitting in the Oregon Diner, mulling over the next idea for our annual Fall Guide, it came out of the blue. Or it seemed to.

Each and every week we look for the stories and headlines that mean the most to South Philadelphians.

But sometimes the story isn’t found in the biggest headline or the beefiest, most controversial story. It’s the details. The small acts that make a bunch of houses a neighborhood, and neighbors friends.

So when Managing Editor Bill Gelman talked about a theme he had long wanted to explore — those folks who rarely make the front page but make a big impact — it was a stop-sippin’-your-coffee, fork-halfway-to-themouth moment.

It was brilliant and simple all at once: Have residents tell us about those that mean the most to them, not really for what they do, but what they don’t do. That is, think twice

V I E W

about helping and never expecting anything in return.

The call was put out to our readers over the summer, and the response was more than we could have asked for. The nominations ranged from animal lovers to those that help the elderly to advocates for a healthy lifestyle.

It solidified what had been suspected all along: There are some amazing, yet very low-key, not-in-the-spotlight people out there doing good works.

Narrowing down the nominees was a tough job, so to all who took the time to tell us about that special person in your life, take heart: This is not the last or only time Difference Makers will make an appearance. The enormous response made it an easy call to look again at the people who may not make the paper every day, but make a difference in small and big ways.

As the seasons change, think of that person — it can be any age, a relative, in any capacity — that brightens the day and works not just for themselves, but for others. The only payment they expect is feeling good on the inside about their contribution.

Remember their names and let us know throughout the year.

From what we can gather from the response we received, we’ve just hit the tip of the iceberg and redefined the phrase, “What’s the Difference?� SPR — Editor Cynthia Marone

make sure to take it in,” the 28-year-old said. “I always have at least one foster cat.

Right now, I’m rehabbing a kitten that has chemical burns that was given to us.”

All of the necessary supplies are stored at her Newbold home for whenever any of the foster parents — who have her cell phone number — have problems.

“If it’s an emergency, it doesn’t matter what time it is,” Ackerman said. “I’m always happy to talk to them and work out any issue.”

Blessing others with decades of service

M

argaret A. Baldwin has been an active force in the area since the age of 16.

Five decades later. the 69-year-old remains an inspiration through her work with numerous lo-

cal organizations. The resident of the 500 block of Mifflin Street traces her drive to help others back to her parents, who were always involved in the community. Later on, Baldwin’s role as the mother of five provided continued inspiration for her endeavors.

The list of groups she has been a part of over the years is a long one. In a good deal of them, her love of children is evident.

She is a founding member of the Southeast Philadelphia Collaborative, which offers after-school opportunities to students at the Houston Center, 2029 S. Eighth St. For the past 25 years, she has served as youth director at Mount Enon Baptist Church, Fifth Street and Snyder Avenue.

“I’m trying to get the community to establish some kind of parent league to work with the school system and within the community,” Baldwin said of her efforts to strengthen the family unit.

Currently, she is a member of the Council continued on page 9

Robin Ackerman

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I october 7, 2010

obin Ackerman, of 17th and McKean streets, is willing to do just about anything to help a sick cat or dog get back on its paws.

This includes transforming her living room into a mini-clinic in the middle of the night to aid a dying kitten brought over by a foster parent, PAWS’s Executive Director Melissa Levy said.

“Although it was obvious the kitten was extremely sick and wouldn’t survive, Robin made every effort to save him,” she said in her Difference Makers‘ nomination letter, “then ensured he was comfortable when it was clear he couldn’t be nursed back to health.”

Ackerman began volunteering for the Phila-

delphia Animal Welfare Society more than two years ago before she was hired to run the organization’s foster program in 2008.

She also spearheads its Spay/Neuter and Wellness Clinic, 2900 Grays Ferry Ave., which has provided more than 100 surgeries a week to area animals since opening earlier this year.

“There’s just such a problem in Philadelphia with homeless pets and overpopulation that I’ve never seen before,” Ackerman, PAWS’s Foster Care and Clinic Practice manager, said on why she is so involved in helping animals. “The first time I walked into Animal Control, I was overwhelmed.”

But her generosity doesn’t stop at the end of the workday.

Difference Makers continued from page 7 of Elders at the Agogo Cultural Center, which focuses on allowing Americans of African descent to learn about and gain access to their cultural foundations. Baldwin also is president of the Successful Aging Task Force for the Mental Health Association of Southeastern Pennsylvania in where she works with seniors who are trying to identify depression.

“I’m actively working on many different projects and trying to get the community involved in different activities,” Baldwin said. “The only way to have a better community is for people to get involved and help with the issues.”

“I never had any doubts I would end up teaching in Catholic schools,” Cody said. “God has blessed me and I want to help. Doing so is just the essence of my being.”

Her being has found her reaching out to benefactors and attending a marketing institute to keep the school thriving. An Eco Club in its second year has exposed her students to civic responsibility, and a revitalized school newspaper has provided another afterschool outlet for the boundless energy of her youngsters.

ne might wonder if Patricia Cody enjoys wearing literall y hats, as she has donned plenty of figurative ones during her relationnship with Epiphany of Our Lord School, ol, 1248 Jackson St. In her fourth year as principal, she has continued a union that began in her elementary-school days and flourished during 17 years as its eighthghthgrade teacher.

“I had thought the transition from teacheacher to administrator would have been more difficult, but the support of the teacherss and the parents made everything go smoothly,” hly,” Cody, a resident of the 1100 block of West Moyamensing Avenue, said.

Cody’s tenure has revolved around providing a quality Catholic education to local kids. This year, she has 305 such children dren in pre-K through eighth grade, a figure she h relishes in her attempts to “educate the whole child.”

Over her 28 years in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia — including seven at the now-closed King of Peace, 26th and Wharton streets — Cody always tried to give to children the same opportunities she had as a Catholic school student.

hile he may be remembered for his time as a welterweight boxer in the 1950s, today Tony Budwin is known by members of the Passyunk Square community as the person they can rely on in any situation. The retired naval base worker and Korean War veteran spends his free time travelling around the St. Nicholas of Tolentine Parish, 1718 S. Ninth St., and acting as an intermediary for neighbors undergoing difficult times. “[He is] a man for the helpless, the young, the old, the lonely, the sad, the homebound, the church, the father, the grandfather and the friend of all who meet him,” Marie R. Alfonsi, of the 1900 block of Alder Street, said in her nomination letter.

And the 77-year-old widower is still going strong. He has used a personal setback as motivation for helping others.

“I’ve been doing it for years,” the resident of the 800 block of Tasker Street said of his involvement in the community.

“Ten years ago, I had a kidney out for cancer and I wanted to give back. It makes me feel good,” Budwin said.

As part of his duties as Eucharistic minister, he brings Communion to the sick and shut-ins. Whenever food is donated to his local church, Budwin gathers it together and prepares it for food baskets to be distributed during the Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter holidays.

And his impact is immeasurable. From driving neighbors to doctor’s appointments, to picking up a friend stranded by the caprices of the family car, he has be-

come a symbol of helpelpfulness and compassion ion in his parish. When en Budwin is not busy sy visiting those in need, d, he prepares cardss to send to nursing homes in commemoration of important occasions, Patricia Cody like birthdays.

with her and her mother at the hospital until the girl’s release hours later.

Always humble, Cody said she enjoys bringing people to their best.

“It just comes naturally,” she said, “and I’ve had great help along the way.”

ompact in stature yet colossal in compassion, Midge Enrico-Caruso could compose books on maximizing every second of life if she were not too busy enjoying each moment herself.

The resident of the 800 block of Dickinson Street has never seen the point of letting any time go unfulfilled. Each day, even while fighting esophagial cancer, she works to relieve the difficulties her loved ones face.

Some highlights of her selfless demeanor include substituting at most of South Philadelphia’s parochial schools; serving as an officer in The Order Sons of Italy in America; and being an active member of Annunciation B.V.M. Parish, 1511 S. 10th St., for which she made pastries for last month’s St. Pio Festival. Time as a volunteer for breast cancer awareness and a Partner in Hope with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital also reveals her giving nature.

“In my heart, I want to do for the whole world,” she said.

Since her September 2007 wedding, she has blessed husband Joe Caruso with her gentle soul. Their nuptials blended her last name with his, forming an Midge Enrico-Caruso allusion to tenor Enrico Caruso. It is her husband, however, who has cause to sing — her “I will not slow down completely. It’s a praises, that is. waste not doing something,”she said.

“She’s my pride and joy.

public elementary school; Andrew Jackson, 1213 S. 12th St. “It’s really a way to connect the community to the school,” the 31-year-old said.

“Now it’s very separated. Only the people who have children really concern themselves with the school.”

While Gusic and husband Don’s children, Felix, 3, and Amelia, 2, aren’t old enough to attend, the committee has already helped hire a new principal, reopen the library and add a science lab with a mural proposed for the spring.

Even though Gusic’s contributions to Passyunk Square may be coming to an end next month when her family moves from the neighborhood, she plans to become involved in her new community.

“It’s really important for me, for my kids, to realize that they’re part of a larger picture,” she said. “It’s not just about them and the small world they live in. Through volunteering and being a part of the community, I can show them ways they can make a difference.”

“After a move, I always felt disconnected,” Harriff said.

The first thing she did after her arrival was to seek out her local civic association.

“It’s a way to meet people and get involved and really put the roots down,” Harriff said.

Soon, she brought a unique sense of comfort to the East Passyunk Crossing Civic Assocation’s monthly meetings by bringing homemade treats.

Over the years, her community efforts have expanded to include outreach to students Jenelle Harriff and local schools by encouraging educators to buy fresh and local foods for cafeterias.

Others also have reaped the benefits of Harriff’s passion for baking through her regular donations to Ss. NeumannGoretti High, 1736 S. 10th St., fundraisers.

“My favorite memory is of how others have helped me,” Harriff said. “I love that camaraderie.”

hen Melodie Jackson found herself at a difficult place in life, she decided to take action rather than succumbing to the pressures surrounding her. She started going to the AL-ASSIST Behavioral Healthcare Center, which aids people dealing with drug and alcohol addictions and mental health issues. Once through her own process of recovery, she wanted to use her newfound hope to help others dealing with similar problems.

“Folks didn’t give up on me,” Jackson said on where her inspiration comes from. “There’s the hope that I might be a blessing for someone else.”

After returning to school to complete her studies, the resident of the 1900 block of Carpenter Street is now a certified peer counselor at AL-ASSIST. As part of her job, she encourages members of the program that life can get better. Jackson also handles case management and travels to court and the Department of Human Services to advocate for parents who have chosen to seek help at the Fourth-and-Reed-streets facility.

“One of my peers who I began to engage with a year ago is now assistant administrator of the Philadelphia Community Center,” Jackson said. “Just to get to see him blossom the way he has, has just been a miracle. It’s an awesome thing to see people grow and come out of their condition.”

Rene Goodwin, a resident of the 100 block of Federal Street, said is someone who has made a difference in many lives.

“She’s a hero in my book,” Goodwin said in her nomination letter.

fter interning at the Ocean Mammal Institute and Maui Bird Conservation Center in and after college, where she majored in animal behavior, Allison Homer browsed craigslist for a job and came across the Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society that launched in 2006.

She soon was hired part-time at the nonprofit’s Old City adoption center, and, relying on one manager and volunteers, was brought on as an additional full-time manager two years later.

“You’ve got to love animals to work there,” the

25-year-old said. “I guess it’s not just the day-to-day, individual basis that I’m helping out these animals.

It’s just on a larger part, being a part of change in the city of Philadelphia.”

After cleaning up and providing medication and food to the animals, the doors at the center open for adopters to browse seven days a week.

Homer helps choose the pet that best matches their personality and lifestyle.

“Working there is kind of doing everything and anything,” the resident of Seventh and Kater streets said. “We’re trying to keep it looking like 50 cats don’t live there.”

And while PAWS doesn’t take strays from the public, Homer has a hard time turning away a cute, furry face.

“One time, someone came in with a kitten,” Homer said. “We’re supposed to say, ‘No, you have to take them to Animal Control. We can’t take them in.’ You can’t say that. It just looked so pathetic, so I ended up fostering it.

We’re all kind of suckers.”

Currently, Homer is fostering Flora, a cat that was adopted, but later brought back. Since she was acting skittish upon returning to the center, Homer has shared her residence with the feline for the past few months to allow her to adjust.

“My current apartment only allows me one at a time, so that prevents me from becoming a crazy cat lady,” she said. continued on page 14

rank LaMacchia thrives on enjoying the pricelessness of life. Since a December 1998 motorcycle accident that paralyzed him from the waist down, he has used his mobile spirit to convince disabled people to revel in the richness of their existence.

LaMacchia, of the 2500 block of South Lambert Street in Girard Estate, has spent the last dozen years advocating for spinalcord research and donating his unflagging energy to various endeavors. For most of that period, he has mentored young victims with similar injuries at Center City’s Magee Rehabilitation Hospital. His August 2007 move to his current home enabled him to become part of the Girard Estate Neighbors Association, for which he has served as vice president since its January ’09 inception.

At Saturday’s First Annual Fitness Day in the Park, an event he created, LaMacchia fraternized with community members who performed low-impact and bodyweight exercises, enjoyed games and received blood pressure and body fat analyses. The event, held at Girard Park, 21st and Shunk streets, began another weekend of his proving a disability conquers only those who cave in to it.

Sunday, he worked out at The Sporting Club at The Bellevue in Center City. His session is part of a Magee DVD campaign that depicts paralysis sufferers performing various tasks.

“We will produce at least three videos.

Another will have me cooking, and a third will show me doing errands,” LaMacchia said. “Magee will use them at the center, but I will look to pput stuff on YouTube.”

Since ’04, he has held a oard position board

“My accident and the time since have taught me not to take life for granted. I hadn’t taken it for granted before, but now I really consider others heavily,” LaMacchia, an IT Consultant at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, said. “I do what I do because I like to do it.

Working as group tourism and promotions manager for Bartram’s Garden in Southwest Philly, Massare spreads the green to her community, as well as scheduling monthly cleanups, planting gardens and more than 100 trees in the community.

“As hard as it is to organize those cleanups and feel like you’re making a difference, it’s when people stop and notice and let you know that they are seeing a difference — it’s really rewarding and makes you want to get out there and pick up some trash,” the 30-year-old said.

Many of the group’s efforts take place at South Philadelphia High School, 2101 S. Broad St., where its flea market was held last month and volunteers planted 25 trees and created an orchard.

“We’re trying to cast some positive light on South Philly High and get some good things going on over there,” she said.

And the group is aiming to reach out to the various ethnicities within the community by putting fliers into different languages.

“If we really want our organization to be representative of the neighborhood, we need to think of ways to reach out to all the people that live here, not just the English-speaking folks,” she said.

Massare, who grew up at 15th and Jackson streets and currently lives with husband Ben Stanko in the house where her mom grew up, thinks her giving nature comes from her mother, but won’t take ownership of LoMo’s work.

“As much as I put into it, there are a lot of folks who are a part of the organization who are putting a lot of work and thought in what we do,” she said. “In order for our organization to really sustain itself, we have to think of it as a team effort and always be thinking about the future of the organization.”

Despite a recent quadruple bypass surgery, Martorano, who has received all of his sacraments at South Philadelphia’s only remaining ethnically Italian parish, continues to bring people into God’s fold. The recipients of his giving nature includes prisoners he counsels and downtrodden folks from other parishes. Lending his talents to numerous groups, including the board of the Tolentine Community Center and the Italian Pastors Committee, he tags himself as “someone who is doing what the Lord called him to do.”

He has enhanced his parish, which will celebrate its 100th anniversary in 2012, by trying to return its worshipers to their “spiritual roots.” Doing so has meant working tirelessly, cutting vacations short or abstaining from them altogether. Even while recovering from his surgery, he sought to give last rites to a dying patient.

“I have great concern for the needy and the poor. My priority, though, is everyone,” he said.

The neighborhood has gained from the church’s annual Procession of Saints and Italian Festival, which occurred Sunday.

Apart from preserving Italian heritage and culture, Martorano wants to sustain his flock’s reliance on God. “South Philadelphia is in an era that’s different from that of my youth. The area gains, however, from sharing resources, combining our spiritual and material needs and seeking the Lord’s intercession,” Martorano said.

Students already are inquiring about the April Donor Dash. Way’s brother, Sha quille, will lead this year’s Furness team. “‘Ms. Nelson, when’s the race? When can we get involved?’” the 49-year-old said of the students. “It has grown to a level I have not expected.”

Along with Way’s sister, Traisha, 25 Nelson plans to travel to area high schools to spread the word about organ donations and dismiss any misconceptions.

“If we can change peoples’ negative perceptions about donation and encour age them to become donors, the numbe of people that die waiting for a transplan will have a better chance to survive,” Nel son said. “That’s very powerful.”

Pastore of his flock

A

t a Horace Furness High School football practice last week, unruly winds and harsh rains offered no match for the powerful tones of coach Anthony Pastore.

The session seemed a metaphor for life and the time the resident of Fifth and Ritner streets has spent with the team, as it involved over coming obstacles in the ques for prosperity.

usan Patrone finds many ways to keep her neighborhood green, from advocating for trackless trolleys to using her bicycle as main mode of transportation for the past 27 years to recycling before the City offered curbside pickup.

“I was out a lot of Saturday mornings, baby, chasing a lot of Italians to give me their trash,” the 58-year-

She also steered the meetings for the construction of the Columbus Square Recreation Center, 12th and Wharton streets.

“There were a lot of contractual-like glitches,” the 12thand-Ellsworth native said. “It took the building years to be completed.”

The former president of the Passyunk Square Civic Association and Columbus Square Advisory Council is not on the board anymore, but still actively volunteers in the neighborhood.

“I feel, because I was born here, like I’m kind of meant to be the bridge from the past to the present to the future especially the newer people who are coming into our community,” Patrone, who is married to Christopher and has two children, Joseph, 26, and Katherine, 21, said.

“I feel I am the connection because this is where I’m from.”

old said.

In the early 1990s, she monitored weekly collections of glass, aluminum and newspaper at a drop-off site at 13th and Tasker streets, while also collecting plastics on a monthly basis at 12th and Wharton streets.

Later in the decade and early 2000s as a certified Tree Tender, she, along with resident and fellow Difference Maker Peter Verrecchia, she helped shade area streets with the first tree canopy.

“We helped facilitate planting,” the resident of 13th and Tasker streets said. “Me and Peter alone — it’s about 230 trees. We were crazy.”

The public school support personnel advisor for the past 30 years, who is now at Walter G. Smith School, 1900 Wharton St., even played a role in the casinos by working to create a 1,500-foot buffer between the sites and the Delaware River.

onstantly looking for ways to make her Point Breeze neighborhood safer, Dorothy Perrine (or Ms. Dot as she is affectionately called by her neighbors) makes her presence known even if it’s 2 a.m. when she makes her solo rounds for the local Town Watch, “Nobody is willing to go out there, so I’m by myself,” the 69-year-old said.

Perrine works around the clock, spending most of the day in her 19th-and-Federal-Street business she has owned for 40 years. It offers typical corner-store needs in addition to fresh fruits and vegetables she grows herself. She’ll even offer tips on how to prepare the produce for those who need them.

“It’s almost like Thanksgiving, when you have to remind them to take the neck and the gizzards out of the turkey,” the resident of the 1900 block of Manton Street said.

Regardless of the weather, between 8 and 9 a.m. and 3 and 4 p.m. each school day you won’t find her in the store, but outside ensuring students at Walter G. Smith School, 1900 Wharton St., arrive and depart safely. “‘Oh, that lady’s going to say something,’” she said students think upon seeing her on the corner, “so they keep going. It cuts down the violence near the school building.”

And she doesn’t typically rest once the sun sets, especially in the summer with more activities going on after dusk.

“I sit out there [at Chew Playground, 19th Street and Washington Avenue,] ‘till 1 o’clock at night and I supervise the basketball games, so people aren’t in there doing unnecessary things,” she said. “A few years ago, we had a shooting. That’s gone. If I see them, I call the police.

We’re not going to have any drug activity.”

Aside from keeping the area crime-free, she also works to keep it beautiful by cleaning up the playground and area streets and planting flowers.

“Because I think the children deserve better than they were getting here,” Perrine, whose daughter Michelle Mitchell and her three grandchildren live in West Philly, said of why she does what she does. “I was born and raised in this neighborhood. The whole time I was here I never had fear walking down the street and it was clean …

All of the sudden, that has stopped. I go out there because I want it to be the way it should be.”

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I october 7, 2010

1900 S. Third St., Pastore has made chasing goals matter as much as defending goal lines.

Except for a brief stint in July, Pastore interacts with his players year-round. His dedication has taken the school from pretender to contender status. In 2007, the program’s first year, the team failed to register a victory, but in ’08 and ’09, it garnered 11 total triumphs. This year, his team has raced to four wins in its first five games, including last Thursday’s 14-0 win over Olney High School, a definite thrill for Pastore, whose coaching career includes seven years as the defensive coordinator for St. Joseph’s Preparatory High School.

Handling a bunch of mostly sophomores and juniors, Pastore, who works as a School District Police Officer at Academy at Palumbo, 1100 Catharine St., stresses accountability. He encourages patience on both sides of the ball and determination outside the lines.

He has needed both himself this season, as an agreement among officials from various schools means that his Public League AAAA Silver Division squad features players from five schools. Playing as the Falcons, the team certainly has diversity in its nest. Its leader, however, sees motivating as his mission no matter a player’s school affiliation.

“Looking out for my players, seeing that they persevere and reminding them of their responsibilities drive me,” Pastore, who regularly plans for scouts to watch his young men, said. “My guys truly absorb a good part of my life, and I am happy they do.”

Nov. 14, the foundation will hold its third annual fashion show, “Homerun for Fashion,” at Citizens Bank Park to benefit the under-construction Oncology Infusion Center and, the day before the fundraiser, employees will partake in the 2010 Philadelphia Start! Heart Walk.

“Our staff is very, very active,” she said.

“I don’t do this by myself. I couldn’t do any of this by myself. It’s the way the employees rally around community service.

We feel we have a responsibility to the community.”

Pirollo also organizes various classes, groups, fairs and monthly screenings for the community, including the annual commun Health Heal Expo that took place Saturday.

“It’s our mission,” she said of why she devotes s herself to bettering the h wellness of the communiw ty. ty “That’s why we’re here.

We W realize the economy isn’t that great. Anything is we w can do to promote health in the community is one way wa to give back. I also live here. her These are my neighbors. bor I really have a love for the South Philly area and the people peo in it.”

reliminary research shows consuming pinto beans may lower one’s cholesterol. Advanced research proves conversing with Sarah Pinto definitely lowers one’s blood pressure. The resident of the 2400 block of South 11th Street has crafted a lifetime out of being everyone’s neighbor by driving, feeding, listening to and visiting whomever needs aid.

“It’s always nice to be nice,” the diminutive helper said of offering emotional and spiritual assistance. e.

Her niceties have remained s t e a d y despite fate’s somewhat fickle treatment of her. Her husband’s drowning death in 1970 left her with three children to rear att 8, age 26. Since ’88, ff she has fended off ulthe effects of mulnd, tiple sclerosis and, in recent years, has confronted Lyme disere’s ease and Meniere’s disease.

Regardless of her ctions, setbacks and afflictions, she has charmed those on the block she has inhabited since ’76 and has spread her tirelesss joy to om she strangers, to whom nd to her has given rides, and he thanks friends, whom she God for providing. ust come “My energy must from my mom,” Pinto, a former City employee loyee who 91 in a proworked from ’75-’91 thonotary office, said of Margaret LaGreca, 92, of 11th and Wharton streets.

She delights stomachs of familiar friends with basil, carrots, peppers and tomatoes from her backyard garden and cultivates new friendships each day.

“My cell phone can’t accommodate all of my friends’ numbers!” she said.

Prone to days of decreased spunk, Pinto perseveres.

“I am very independent,” she said.

But she is really never alone, as she seeks chances to show her gratitude for life and the connections it yields.

“God will see us through things. He won’t give us what we can’t handle. I know. I’ve had to handle a bunch,” Pinto said.

A

n employee of Methodist Hospital, Diane Pirollo has been instrumental in the well-being of residents for almost four decades.

Moving to South Philly — where she would raise daughters Pamela and Donna — from South Jersey following nursing school, Pirollo was hired at the 2301 S. Broad St. hospital as a nurse in 1972. She moved up the ranks to her current positions of vice president for community relations and executive director of the Methodist Hospital Foundation in 1990.

“That’s really very, very nice,” Pirollo,

Diane Pirollo who wh was nominated by the hospital’s Human Resources Director Joseph Micucci and Chief Administrative Officer James Robinson, said. “It makes me feel good that my co-workers — really that people in the hospital — [nominated me]. It makes me humble.”

Since ’98, the foundation, which raises funds to offset the costs of uninsured and underinsured patients, has been supplying $12,500 to $25,000 grants to community organizations’ health-related programs.

The nonprofit also accommodates needs inside the hospital with the additions of a Woman’s Diagnostic Center and Acute Dialysis Unit.

“The goal is to build a healthy community and we’re a member of the community,” the resident of 13th and Fitzgerald streets said.

t may be difficult to imagine a street where new in nneighbors are welcomed into their t homes with the enticing smell of freshly baked goods, goods but such warm-hearted deliveries deliver are standard practice on the 700 to 800 block of Hoffman Street.

St Owing mostly to the thoughtful ministrations of block captain Drema Ricco, residents both old and new can look forward to much more than the promise of pastries straight from her oven.

“I moved here a little over a year ago,” Julie Robinson, one of Ricco’s neighbors, said in her nomination letter. “I am positive she is a big part of why my block is so pleasant and liveable.”

Ricco has been a block captain for close to 22 years. During that time, she has been the driving force behind street cleanups and block parties, for which she has been known to cook enough food to feed every family from corner to corner.

“When I first became a block captain, there was an empty lot across the street continued on page 27

ple’s dead plants, so I water them,” he said.

And year-round he keeps his block tidy and looking good by sweeping the pavements of the debris that accumulates each week.

“Who wants to sit outside in piles of dirt, newspapers and dog [waste]?” he said.

Although the block may be spotless now, Schill (with assistance from his 5-year-old neighbor Michael Dellavalla) puts a few hours in each week to keep it that way. But Schill would rather passersby just stop littering.

“Then I could go do something else,” he said with a laugh.

For now, he’ll continue to pick up any trash that accumulates near his door and is appreciative that his neighbors have taken notice.

“It feels great,” he said. “It’s awesome someone took time to realize that someone took the time to clean it up.”

harlie Schill is a busy man. While caring for his older brother, Michael, who has multiple sclerosis, he still manages to find time to chip in to make the neighborhood look appealing and asking if his neighbors need anything when he’s at the supermarket.

“It’s just the right thing to do,” the resident of the 2400 block of South Rosewood Street said. “There’s no other reason. No one is going to build a statue for me.”

In the winter, he shovels the sidewalks for his elderly neighbors after a snowstorm, something he attributes to his mother’s instructions as a youngster.

“My mother used to stand out the door [and say], ‘Do that one. Do this one,’” the 46-year-old said.

He also keeps the flowers blooming come spring and summer by sprinkling water on his neighbors’ buds each evening.

“There’s already enough war overseas,” Ricco said on the need for others to get involved in community efforts. “We don’t need more here. We need to be more peaceful … I consider my block to be United Nations, because we have a little bit of everybody.”

Verrecchia, of the 1400 block of South 13th Street, moved to his neighborhood in 1996 and began planting trees in Fairmount Park in ’97. The Pennsylvania Horticultural Society made him a Tree Tender soon after and the nurse at Pennsylvania Hospital organized seasonal tree-plantings for community members following the ’04 establishment of the Passyunk Square Civic Association.

Though numerous trees, including bald cypresses, hawthorns and London plains, adorn the park’s perimeter, the floral aspects dominate.

“I plant whenever the spirit moves me,” he said of the impressive area, which includes dazzling Mexican sunflowers and 30 varieties of roses.

The spirit has moved him enough to consider additions to the park, but his motivation stems from nature’s flexibility.

By Tom Cardella Columnist

The game changer

S

o this is the way it was that autumn day. It was definitely not the kind of day you’d expect would change your life. That’s the thing about life, it not only sneaks up on you, it sometimes hits you with a sucker punch. As John Lennon wrote, “Life is what happens while you were making other plans.”

You might ask me how I missed the signs. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s all of us have this incredible ability to deceive ourselves. Contrary to the Jack Nicholson line in “A Few Good Men,” it’s not that we can’t handle the truth, we make sure the truth never gets past our filter of self-deception.

Look at my situation. I had been going to a kidney specialist for years. All along, he had been giving me all the warning signs the old kidneys were winding down. I’d leave his office, walk down the street, have a nice lunch, and forget all about it until the next appointment. Oh, I’d complain afterwards to my wife the Doc had lost his sense of humor. No more chatting about the Eagles and Phillies. All business. Throwing the creatinine numbers at me. Now he was scheduling me for appointments every three months. What a killjoy.

My wife wasn’t buying my argument.

Wives have this innate suspicious nature of men. They think we are experts at self-delusion, among other things. She insisted on coming with me to the next doctor’s visit.

I flippantly told her to come along and see for herself. At least it wouldn’t be a total waste — magnanimous me would treat her to lunch. So it was on a bright autumn day, with the leaves falling down and all of that other Tin Pan Alley nonsense, we trudged together to my doctor’s office.

The visit was almost over. The doc had gone through his routine of checking my ankles, taking my blood pressure and doing the stethoscope bit. I already had decided on what I would have for lunch. I was ready to race out into the sunshine and get on with my life for another three months when my wife decided to ask her threshold question: “Do we have anything to be worried about?”

I expected the perfunctory reply, something like, “Your husband has a lot of life yet in him. I’ll see him in three months.

Go Eagles.” That’s not exactly what he replied. Instead he said, “Your husband will need a kidney transplant in the next year.” I’m sure he said some other stuff

too; I couldn’t hear him. His words faded.

I was mentally no longer in the examining room. I heard the muffled sounds of conversation, and then there was a rush of air.

Or was it just my breathing?

We walked out into the brilliant sunshine and I was almost offended by it.

At least nature could acknowledge my fate by shedding a few raindrops on us.

Only in the movies does nature cooperate in our grief by raining on cue. People were briskly walking by us, on their way to lunch or shopping. The unfeeling world kept on turning.

It was only much later I fully could remember the rest of what happened in the doctor’s office and my wife’s insistence she be tested as my donor, while I sat there numb in my self-absorbed grief. She never wavered in her belief that we would be a match. She never accepted the advice of some who cautioned her to think about what she was doing. There were no second thoughts. She would give up her kidney in the same selfless way she had lived her entire life.

Like most who perform heroic actions, she never thought of her decision as heroic. While many would have thought this was way beyond the job description of the devoted mate, she saw her decision as part of the continuum, all of a piece, a mixture of love and duty or what she perceived as duty. She wondered what the fuss was all about. She must have willed herself to be a match for me. She wouldn’t accept less in her fierce determination.

After the surgery, I was lying in a hospital room in that nether region of half asleep, half awake when the surgeon visited me and said, “your wife gave you a nice little kidney.” As I recount those words, I think of how similar they are when your wife delivers your newborn into the world.

Maybe that’s the way the surgeon meant it, with a sense of irony. She had again delivered the gift of life this time, I was the one who was reborn.

It is now almost a year-and-a-half since my successful transplant. We are both doing fine. It is true, when I glance at another woman when my wife is not around, her kidney sounds an alarm. In my mind, she is the game changer. Sports fans will understand what I mean by that.

She worries her act forces me to feel eternally grateful. In her mind, I am the one who is put upon. She doesn’t like it when people remind me I owe her so much. I tell her I feel eternally grateful, not because of what society forces upon me, but because when someone saves your life, and especially when that person is your wife, there is no other way to feel.

Who has had the biggest effect on my life? Give me a tougher question next time. SPR Comment at www.southphillyreview.com/opinion/cardella.

Self-conscious psyche

Tragic clown Bobby (Zach Galifianakis, shown) becomes a mentor and friend to fellow mental-hospital patient Craig (Keir Gilchrist).

By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

“I

t’s Kind of a Funny Story” goes out of its way to tell you when it’s knowingly dodging genre pratfalls, such as when it replaces a potentially sappy moment with a (probably sappier) freeze-frame highlight reel, complete with voiceover play-by-play. The rather patronizing direct address makes this insipid mental-hospital dramedy that, with every ounce of its being, wishes it were this generation’s “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” all the worse. These days, you can’t make a serious-minded movie this colorless and shallow and get away with it, especially when you insist to the audience you know what not to do.

Based on the semi-autobiographical novel by Ned Vizzini, “Funny Story” is the third narrative feature from the gifted filmmaking duo of Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck (“Half Nelson,” “Sugar”).

Call it their junior slump.

“Funny Story” is about a 16-year-old Brooklynite named Craig (Keir Gilchrist) whose depression and suicidal urges prompt him to check into a psych clinic. There he meets a bottled-up sad clown (Zach Galifianakis), a pretty cutter (Emma Roberts) and predictably offbeat peripheral characters like the schizo, the tranny and the sleepy Egyptian (“Cuckoo’s Nest” never tried to stir the melting pot so deliberately).

This bit of quirk cinema seems to partly function as the coming-out party for Galifianakis’ dramatic chops. However, this isn’t the film to do so. The perpetually unshaven, anti-movie-star comedian may well be cut out for meaty, straight-faced roles, but his performance here is victim-

ized by the script’s overly nice and ultrasafe concoctions.

Boden and Fleck do tap into something real regarding the sheer inconvenience of staying at a care facility and how absence from life can trigger collateral damage, especially for a high school student. But the movie is otherwise void of brio or provocative thought. Conflicts are meager, visual flourishes are both derivative and inconsistent and little true substance is ever said.

When talking to the head shrink about his issues, Craig declares, “There’s something bigger going on here.” Not really.

It’s Kind of a Funny Story PG-13 One-and-a-half reels out of four In area theaters tomorrow

Recommended Rental I Am Love R Available Tuesday An intoxicating Italian melodrama about the inner workings of a Milanese textile dynasty, “I Am Love” sees vanguard thespian Tilda Swinton command the screen in a foreign language as a cheating trophy wife.

Sumptuously shot and scored, and capable of stimulating the senses like few films ever have, it is one of the best movies of the year. SPR Comment and see the trailers for this week’s movies at http://www.southphillyreview.com/artsand-entertainment/movies.

Real-life and fictional characters make change on the big screen and their stories capture hearts every time.

By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

T

Dead Man Walking (1995) Taking the stance it’s never too late to make a difference in someone’s life, and that even the worst wrongdoers can be worthy of redemption, “Dead Man Walking” challenges traditional notions of compassion. Based on the book by New Orleans nun Sister Helen Prejean, whose own traditions were upended, it follows Prejean’s spiritual advisory and unexpected befriending of a convicted killer awaiting execution. Susan Sarandon and Sean Penn are tremendous in the leading roles.

About Schmidt (2002) With Jack Nicholson as a sullen man set adrift after his retirement and his wife’s unexpected death, “About Schmidt” may at first seem the least relevant title in this list. An unhurried character study about someone trying to manage whatever he can in a world that’s passed him by, the movie crushingly illustrates the pains of getting old. And yet, it leaves Warren Schmidt having fulfilled his desire to make some sort of difference, and the enormity given to his seemingly small contribution is deeply moving.

Philadelphia (1993) The first major Hollywood movie to take on the issue of AIDS, Jonathan Demme’s “Philadelphia” still resonates as a cultural milestone. It features two heroic change-initiators, one an infected homosexual lawyer (Tom Hanks) fired for his diagnosis, and the other his initially reluctant attorney (Denzel Washington) who helps him obtain justice against his firm.

Both touching and topical, “Philadelphia” is a film whose effects reached far beyond the theater.

Good Night, and Good Luck (2005) George Clooney’s directorial triumph “Good Night, and Good Luck” is a sophisticated tribute to journalistic integrity, namely that of 1950s newsman Edward R. Murrow (David Strathairn) and his plucky broadcast staff at CBS. Against all advisement, Murrow and company fought to expose the corruption surrounding Sen. Joe McCarthy’s Communist witch hunt, thus educating the public in a time of terror.

The Station Agent (2003) The transformative powers of friendship and conversation are presented with immaculate grace in “The Station Agent,” a unique dramedy that sees the unlikely convergence of a truck-driving chatterbox (Bobby Cannavale), an artist with marital problems (Patricia Clarkson) and a reclusive dwarf inhabiting a train station (Peter Dinklage). These finely drawn characters become new breaths of life for one another, and their smooth, evolving interdependence is a joy to watch.

Milk (2008) Gus Van Sant’s “Milk” netted Oscars for star Sean Penn and screenwriter Dustin Lance Black, who, along with their director, strove to artfully portray the rousing story of slain San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk, California’s first openly gay elected official. Milk became the hero of an entire minority and, in this flawless retelling of his ascent, glass ceilings aren’t the only things shattering.

Babe (1995) Who said Difference Makers had to be two-legged?

The family-friendly “Babe” follows the titular pig as he manages to evade slaughter and become a polite, communicative sheep-herder. In the process, he earns the respect of his fellow animals and the head farmer (James Cromwell), whose improvement as a man is another of the pig’s accomplishments. “Babe” is a kids’ movie that speaks to adults, and to the importance of dispelling misconceptions.

Erin Brockovich (2000) Earning its place among predecessors like “Norma Rae” and “Silkwood,” the now-iconic “Erin Brockovich” is a sterling example of a can-do person squishing can’t-do attitudes — right under her stiletto heel. The greatness of Steven Soderbergh’s galvanizing biopic doesn’t just come from Julia Roberts’ career-best performance, but from how vividly her character’s poisoned, small-town clients are established.

The scene in which Erin announces victory to a desperate wife and mother is a time-andagain tear-jerker. SPR Comment and see the trailers for “Amelie,” “About Schmidt” and “The Station Agent” at www.southphillyreview.com/arts-and-entertainment/movies

S O U T h p h illyreview . c o m 3 1

Hotel Rwanda (2004) Set amidst the 1994 Rwandan Genocide, “Hotel Rwanda” is one of those fact-based films that drop the jaw and boggle the mind, depicting horrors so great they’re hard to fathom. It’s overwhelming to watch, let alone to consider how one man, Paul Rusesabagina (Don Cheadle), risked everything to open his hotel to hundreds of refugees, who may well have been among the hundreds of thousands massacred in the nation’s civil war. The movie is a testament to

Amélie (2001) Rarely has a story of charity been executed with the exuberance of “Amélie,” Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s one-of-a-kind spirit-lifter that introduced the world to international sweetheart Audrey Tatou.

Playing a shy and imaginative Parisian waitress who finds there’s no greater high than that which comes from helping others, Tatou becomes an act-of-kindness action heroine. By the time Amélie finally finds happiness for herself, you’re ready to throw confetti.

he movie industry loves Difference Makers. Over the last century, the inclusive genre of inspirational, shakeup-the-system, help-your-fellow-man flicks has introduced scores of everyday heroes, whose extra-mile actions have drawn tears and cheers in equal measure. This season alone will see a good share of them, like Betty Anne Waters, the housewife-turnedattorney whose epic quest to free her jailed brother is chronicled in “Conviction,” and the courageous educators in “Waiting for Superman,” a vital documentary that may just have the power to change America’s schools.

Whether pulled from life or born of the cinema, characters like these make for priceless screen subjects. It’s that vicarious thrill of watching common folks soldier beyond the norm, and the feeling of true progress that comes from seeing their efforts better the futures of others. Though many have, these people needn’t move mountains. Sometimes the most profound impact is felt on a small, intimate scale.

Though many are fueled by their own ideals and beliefs, one needn’t feel the same to be affected. It’s not a members’-only thing; it’s a human thing.

The past 20 years have been especially populated with films about righteous role models. Perhaps as the world grows more complicated, the need for tales of fundamental benevolence grows right along with it. Here are 10 that have stood out, some filling the classic mold and some whose Difference Makers are … a little different.

Autumn is easy to overlook.

Summer’s successor and winter’s predecessor, the three-month stretch can feel like a middle child.

The season, however, possesses a strong will and refuses to go unnoticed.

Halloween, with its ghosts, ghouls, goblins and goodies, shows the season’s penchant for mixing chills with thrills, putting everyone on a caloric crusade for fun.

Thanksgiving, Hanukkah and the Christmas rush also make the period a festive excuse for welcoming colder temperatures and earlier sunsets. Romantic yet subtle, the season beckons us to become cozy.

Area events will likewise allow everyone to partake of autumn’s bounty.

Our Fall Guide What’s Happening section can help you maximize the coming months. Use it to make fall feel better about itself.

Iona Eaddy Mercy Home Health Patient

Mercy Starts With Me

“ I’m back on my feet thanks to Mercy!”

As a mother of four and grandmother to seven, I have always led a very active lifestyle. Developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD) and diabetes changed everything.

I became so weak I could not walk and my doctor ordered me to remain on bed rest. He also recommended Mercy Home Health physical therapy to help me regain my strength and get back on my feet.

It was a miracle! After just a few sessions with the physical therapist I was able to get out of bed, walk around my home, and even go outside for some fresh air. Not only did my therapist help me physically, she also gave me the skills I needed to remain safe, maintain my health and live independently. Now, I’m keeping up with my family again!

Thank you Mercy for getting me back on my feet!

hen looking to impress guests on a pleasant fall evening, there are the fancier options, such as halibut and prime rib. But with the current state of the economy, where people are trying to cut back on their spending habits, there are less-expensive options that are just as tasty. Mildred Lloyd-Henderson, of the 2400 block of Manton Street, prefers going with her Hearty Beef Stew. when feeding a crowd.

The Point Breeze resident simply combines beef, vegetables and seasonings to create a meal she said generously serves six. Of course, there is another possibility: Make it a date for two and freeze the leftovers. SPR

Mildred’s Hearty Beef Stew INGREDIENTS:

1-1/2 quarts of water 1/4 cup of cooking oil 2 pounds of lean chuck or bottom round beef, cut into cubes 1 cup of barley 1 small can of tomato paste 1 can each of beef gravy and crushed tomatoes 3 carrots, coarsely sliced 4 ribs of celery, coarsely sliced 2 large red onions, chopped 2 cans of mushroom stems and pieces, in their liquid 1 can each of green lima beans and whole kernel corn, in their liquid 4 beef bouillon cubes 1 tablespoon each of salt, red pepper flakes, Italian seasoning, garlic pow-

der, onion powder, dill and allspice 6 red potatoes, quartered

DIRECTIONS:

Boil the water in a 6- to 8-quart pot.

In a large skillet, add the oil and bring to a simmer. Brown the beef over medium-high.

Add the meat to the water along with the barley, cooking until the barley is tender, Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining ingredients, except for the potatoes, and stiring constantly.

Add the potatoes and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes s are tender, about 20 minutes. s.

topping for a cool evening. It must have simmered for hours. The sauce was rich with tomatoes and fresh chopped herbs.

Since we enjoyed a glass of Sangiovese ($8) on our previous visit, we decided to sip one with the pasta.

Before we warmed up with coffee and tea, I had to try a sweet. I asked one of the waiters for a recommendation because each of the seven dolci on the menu looked tempting.

Millefoglie alla crema e fragole fresche ($10) was a triumph. It was a panna cotta covered in rich, dark, semisweet chocolate served with whipped cream and fresh strawberries. I am having difficulty describing this luscious desser; You must sample it for yourself.

I noticed there were not many people dining in Apollinare during our visits. On our second meal, I walked outside and noticed there were few people watching the

Phillies game in the piazza.

You may wonder why a restaurant as resplendent as Apollinare is not busy. It could be that the owners did not hire a high-powered public relations firm to get out the word. This is my responsibility.

Claiborne would approve. Dine in this marvelous restaurant. You will not be disappointed.

Three extraordinary tips of the toque to Apollinare. SPR

and potatoes. All it required was a bit of pepper.

We watched the pizza chef prepare the dough by hand. There are nine pies on the menu, so it was difficult to decide which to savor. Pizza Pomodorini e rucola ($12) was carefully prepared with fresh mozzarella and cherry tomatoes. This is a white pizza, and after it spent time in the oven, the chef topped it with a handful of spicy baby arugula and extra-virgin olive oil.

With this is life, nothing is bad. The crust was thin and crisp. The slight sweetness of the tomatoes played off against the tang of the arugula and mild mozzarella.

The pies are for two.

Our next visit occurred during a Phillies game, so we slid onto bar stools and met Todd the barkeep. He made us martinis and watched the game. It did not matter whether the men in red and white won or lost, our dinner was the star of the evening.

Edward and I shared the antipasto all’Italiana ($16), which consisted of razor-thin slices of Prosciutto di Parma, a selection of salami, tangy Gorgonzola from Lombardy and a mild cheese that was enjoyed with hot homemade bread.

Pasta can be the key to whether an Italian restaurant brings back memories of Rome, Naples, Florence, etc., or not. The chefs at Apollinare hit the mark. Edward and I shared homemade fresh pappardelle al ragu’ di cinghiale ($16), which was thoughtfully split in the kitchen. Pappardelle, or ribbon pasta, is one of my favorites. Wild boar ragu was the perfect

or many years, Craig Claiborne was the restaurant critic/food columnist for The New York Times. If a chef or restaurant was distinctively fine, he would shout its praises from the rooftops.

I count Claiborne among my mentors and adhere to his philosophy great culinary news must be shared.

This is the case with Apollinare, which defines authentic Italian cucina. The ingredients are immaculately fresh and full of flavor. There is a reason for each, which may appear on a pizza, in a salad, on pasta or in a dessert.

Edward and I visited the restaurant twice, which is in the Piazza at Schmidt’s.

We took seats at the pizza bar. The slight warmth from the wood-burning oven was glorious. We sipped martinis and perused the menu.

From the antipasti we selected parmigiana di melanzane ($12). The menu describes it as eggplant parmigiana with tomato sauce and fresh oregano. These words do not do it justice. We received a piping-hot stack of sautéed, not-at-all bitter eggplant slices that were enhanced by a fresh sauce and ricotta cheese. Warm, homemade bread and olive oil were enjoyed with the starter.

Insalata Apollinare ($10) was a tumble of mixed greens, cool potatoes, black olives and caperberries tossed in extra-virgin olive oil and fresh lemon juice. The contrasting tastes caused a sensation with the first bite. Caperberries have a salty flavor, which married well with the greens

Before going to the megamart, consider lling your bags with the wares of farmers and businesses that stock their shelves with organic, sustainable and local foods.

S

cheese and an apple or pear,” I yell.

Just make sure they are from Pennsylvania.

■ Raspberry Applesauce ■ from “Food to Live By: The Earthbound Farm Organic Cookbook” by Myra Goodman

Ingredients:

4 medium sweet-tart apples, such as Fuji, McIntosh or Gravenstein, peeled and diced (about 4 cups) 1-1/2 cups of water 1-1/4 cups of fresh or frozen unsweetened raspberries 1/2 cup of sugar, or more if desired 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice

Directions: Simmer the apples and water in a large nonreactive saucepan over high. Reduce to medium and simmer until the apples are soft, about 15 minutes.

Add the raspberries and sugar and cook, stirring frequently, until the apples are soft, about five minutes.

Break up any large apple chunks with the back of a wooden spoon. The applesauce should be thick.

Remove from the heat and cool slightly. Add the lemon juice. Taste and add more sugar, if desired. If not serving immediately, place in a covered container. Apple-

sauce can be refrigerated up to five days.

Makes about two cups.

■ Sautéed Apples ■ with Calvados Ingredients:

4 apples of choice, such as Gala, Golden Delicious or Fuji, peeled, cored and sliced 3 tablespoons of Calvados 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter Sprinkle each of cinnamon and brown sugar

Directions: Toss the apples and Calvados in a large bowl.

Heat the butter over medium in a large skillet. Add the apples and sauté for about 10 minutes, or until slightly soft. Sprinkle with the cinnamon and brown sugar and gently toss.

Serves four.

Note from Phyllis: Calvados is an apple brandy from Normandy, France.

The apples are the perfect side dish for pork roast or chops. SPR Comment at www.southphillyreview.com/food-anddrink/features.

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I october 7, 2010

S O U T h p h illyreview . c o m 5 9

everal years ago, on a brilliantly sunny but blustery November afternoon, I headed north to interview the owners of Bolton Turkey Farm in Bucks County. The Boltons raise chickens, capons and turkeys, which are shipped to Godshall’s in the Reading Terminal Market. I buy all my poultry from this familyowned business. Bolton also has a retail store on the farm.

Interest in local, organic and sustainable foods has soared in recent years. Did it bother me that I giggled as I watched white-feathered turkeys strutting around Bolton’s farm as several sheepdogs kept Canada geese at bay, knowing full well a 15-pound bird soon would be the centerpiece of my Thanksgiving celebration? Not at all. I believe children must learn at a young age where their dinner comes from.

I once watched a group of kids touring Reading Terminal. They made awful faces and dreadful sounds when they discovered fish, meat and poultry were nestled in cases and not packed in Styrofoam suffocated in plastic wrap. The fish eyes staring back at them was, in the words of one boy, “nasty.”

The only time I step foot in a supermarket is before the Jewish holidays when I am low on matzo and matzo meal, although supermarkets have made strides in stocking organic foods.

I do not know who coined the phrase “locovores” to describe those who buy local. Experts agree it’s better to buy local foods, which are not organic, rather than organic foods that have been shipped thousands of miles.

Sustainable fish has been in the forefront of culinary news, so let’s talk shrimp. Ever try previously frozen, farm-raised shrimp from Thailand? They taste like iodine.

Want to taste something ideal? Buy wild shrimp from South Carolina and you will never go back.

Halibut has become the fish of choice over salmon, especially in restaurants.

Seek out this flatfish from the Pacific Northwest since it is not endangered.

Crabmeat from the Chesapeake Bay is

flavored with a lightness and slight sweetness that makes taste buds soar.

Last spring, Trader Joe’s began stocking organic, free-range, extra-large brown eggs from Lititz farms. This is an important stride for those who buy local. During the spring, the store also stocked fresh asparagus from Jersey farms. Trader Joe’s now is featuring local fall fruits.

Not to be outdone, Whole Foods posts the names of farms and the number of miles from Philadelphia for its apples, pears, potatoes, green beans and the like.

You name it, Whole Foods will keep you informed.

The fall apple crop has been glorious.

I’ve been buying local from the farmer’s market on Rittenhouse Square. Local apples and pears also can be found at Reading Terminal.

The last of the summer corn now is available. Pennsylvania and Jersey ears were going for two for $1. (I stashed some in my freezer.)

Pumpkins and winter squash are in, as well. Travel to Springdale Farms in Cherry Hill, N.J., and have fun picking out large orange gourds for baking and carving and squash for good eating.

First lady Michelle Obama has pledged to eliminate childhood obesity in one generation. This is a tall order. I applaud and support her drive, dedication and enthusiasm. Obesity can lead to heart disease, diabetes and other serious ailments.

Around town, I see young people who are so morbidly obese, they take up two-and-a-half seats on the bus or they have difficulty walking. They sometimes carry a two-liter of soda in one hand and junk food in the other.

Lifestyles

Horoscopes

By Mystic Terry Psychic Reader

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22): It may feel like a d partner is interrogating you. The questions seem focused on the past. A close friend surprises you with a

drastic makeover. Lucky number: 183.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21): Intensity felt with a partner may suddenly diminish. This togetherness requires change. Sticking to a position may prolong a disagreement with an important person. Lucky number: 058.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21): Ponder if keeping a rigid stance gets you anywhere. A companion is willing to compromise, so the ball is in your court.

If not giving a little, don’t blame things on your sweetheart.

Lucky number: 513.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19): A close companion tells it like it is, even if you don’t want to hear it. The truth is uncomfortable, if not painful. Love is more fulfilling if found far from home. Pay attention to what is being said. Lucky number: 720.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18): Things once enjoyed no longer provide pleasure. Beware of falling into hopelessness. A confidant has information you want to hear. Lucky number: 977.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20): Someone in your immediate sphere modifies the way things are done. Not being consulted rubs you the wrong way and may cause a rift. Lucky number: 478.

ARIES (March 21 to April 20): Finding refuge away from home is crucial. The drama in a domestic environment escalates if confrontation is thrown into the mix. Give things time and space before attempting to make positive changes. Lucky number: 089.

TAURUS (April 21 to May 20): Relax by doing something with special friends. An excursion somewhere fun could be in the picture. A more productive way to spend time is to brainstorm on pleasurable ways to support yourself. Lucky number: 121.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20): Don’t count on a childish demeanor to continue amusing others.

Holding on to romantic illusions also gets old. Examine how a creative project can be reworked to ensure success.

Lucky number: 808.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22): Cleverness comes in handy as you succeed with your strategy.

Don’t put finances on the line, though; they are vulnerable. Displaying talents makes an impression on the powers that be. Lucky number: 173.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22): Evaluate an abandoned exercise routine or diet. Review details on job assignments; it’s possible something important was overlooked. Lucky number: 832.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22): Take advantage of the connection enjoyed with a potential soul mate.

This person won’t be content with a casual fling. Lucky number: 356. SPR

A

24-year-old died a few blocks from home and within minutes of being shot on the 2300 block of Fernon Street last Wednesday.

At 10:45 a.m. Sept. 29, Kaseem Street, of the 2300 block of McClellan Street, took a bullet to the head and was pronounced dead at the scene eight minutes later, Officer Jill Russell of the Police Public Affairs Unit said.

Police did not have any motive or suspects in the Point Breeze fatality as of press time.

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

North Philly man ID’d as shooter A North Philly man accused of targeting a father and son in Point Breeze and shooting one in the leg was arrested for assault almost two weeks after the incident.

After the 46-year-old father exchanged words with Ronald Davis, the latter allegedly fired shots from a silver handgun at him and his 23-year-old son at 20th and Morris streets, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The son was left unscathed, but the parent was struck once in the right calf at 6:30 a.m.

Sept. 17.

Medics transported the older man to The Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in stable condition, Tolliver said.

Davis was believed to have fled in a gold Nissan Maxima at the time.

Davis was identified by witnesses by name and from a photo array, Tolliver said.

South Detectives and the Major Crimes Gun Violence Task Force apprehended the 41-year-old on the 400 block of Washington Avenue 10 a.m. Sept. 28.

The gun allegedly used in the shooting was not recovered, but Davis was charged with two counts of aggravated assault, simple assault, recklessly endangering another person and firearm violations.

Charged with attempted murder A man accused of shooting his live-in girlfriend’s daughter has been charged with attempted murder.

The 16-year-old and a 19-year-old man stopped by the apartment shared by Ralph Rescigno, 49, and the girl’s mother on the 2600 block of South Seventh Street, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detec-

tive Division said. Rescigno allegedly shot the girl in the backside with a rifle during a spat with the two teens while inside the home at 2:45 p.m. Sept. 27. The girl, who was found on the street outside the dwelling, was transported to Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia in stable condition.

Rescigno allegedly refused to leave the second-floor home, prompting police to alert SWAT and the Homeland Security Unit. Rescigno surrendered to SWAT at 4:10 p.m., Officer Tanya Little of the Police Public Affairs Unit said.

The teen’s mother, who was inside the apartment, was taken to South Detective Division for questioning, Chief Inspector Joe Sullivan of the Police Homeland Security Unit said at the time. Police also were called to the residence earlier on Sept. 27 for a disturbance.

Rescigno was charged with criminal attempted murder, aggravated assault, simple assault, possession of an instrument of crime, recklessly endangering another person and firearm violations, according to court documents.

Rescigno was on probation in the 1980s for multiple thefts, according to court documents.

Community meetings rescheduled Canceled last week due to inclement weather, all districts will hold police and community forums from 6 to 8 tonight with members from various departments, including Internal Affairs, the Police Advisory Commission and Police Clergy, for residents to share thoughts and concerns.

The 1st District meeting will be held at St. Richard Church, 19th and Pollock streets; 3rd District is at the EOM Club, 138 Moore St.; and the 17th District will meet at Wharton Square, 23rd and Wharton streets.

“Thursday’s Police-Community Meetings are a continuation of PPD’s efforts to engage residents and address their concerns,” Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey said. “We require the assistance of everyone in addressing the issues of crime and disorder in our neighborhoods.

“We will hold our police officers to a high standard of conduct and we need citizens to be proactive in helping officers do their jobs.”

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 mercy towards me and mine. Say for 3 consecutive days and after 3 days, the request will be granted even if it may appear difficult. The prayer must be published immediately after favors granted. M.a.S.
