Jenks Academics Plus School, 2501 S. 13th St., home and school association president Kimberly Moore tabbed the location “a gem in South Philadelphia.” If the School District of Philadelphia executes a plan to establish split classes through the removal of a teacher, though, the elementary institution could

find its luster tarnished, with parents and enrollees worrying about processing probable changes. “We’re confused and angry over this whole ordeal,” the third-year head and resident of the 2500 block of South Clarion Street said of her peers. “We cannot do this every year. Our parents are tough but they’re tired, and it’s every year that we’re fighting for our children and their education.” Nearly three dozen strong, the perplexed individuals united over fears the district would rid their Lower Moyamensing facility of third-grade

As the Eagles prepare to take on the Cowboys for first place, who do you think should be their starting quarterback?

“Not [Michael] Vick. I am still protesting the dog issue. As soon as he is not quarterbacking, I will start watching the games again.� Claudia Menta, 11th Street and Oregon Avenue

“If [Michael] Vick is due and able to start, he should be their starting quarterback. Their performance should not be based on what the quarterback does. It takes a team to win.� Theresa Misuraco, 17th and Shunk streets

Job evaluation To the Editor: It has once again become painfully obvious that you, the incumbent politicians, are all incapable of doing your jobs. Your consistent inability to set aside partisan differences, in the face of American citizens screaming for you all to do so, has made me come to a decision. I will make it a mission of mine, to ensure that incumbent politicians that “represent� me lose their job. I will go to great lengths to accomplish this. I will vote against every single one of you, then I’ll change my party and vote against every single one of you, as well! Put it this way: If you currently hold the position of senator or congressman, you’re fired! My fellow American citizens, haven’t you had enough of these out-of-touch, overpaid, unenlightened, disrespectful, do-nothings, who are supposed to work for us? The only motivation they have to

do their job is to make sure they keep it. This has nothing to do with Democrats versus Republicans. This is about U.S. citizens being in control of our own future, as a country. Aren’t you angry that this country of ours is being run into the ground? We all need to get up off our butts and use one of the greatest rights we have: The right to vote! Pass this on to everyone you know. Maybe it will inspire others to want to stand up and do something for our country. Chris Doyle South Philadelphia

all the madness that is going on. I would like to start a community group called South Philly United. Getting the 25 Difference Makers (Oct. 10) together would be a good place to start. We will help take back our community. We have to stop this madness of the killing of our kids. If we are the people who are going to make a difference, we need to join together and start this new South Philly United. The kids that we save could be mine or yours. Robert Wilbowe 2013 Difference Maker President of the South Philadelphia Rainbow Committee

Applause To the Editor: Thank you so much for the idea, for the recognition of a truly wonderful woman, for the morale boost the Difference Makers give to us all.

Smiling back To the Editor: Sister Paula Beierschmitt (who died Sept. 28 at the age of 72) may be gone, but never forgotten. She had a smile that would light up the room. Anyone who knew her was blessed. She was sent out on a mission from Our Lady of Guadalupe to have a shrine placed on a wall, so all could stop and pray for our country during these hard times. Sister Paula is now with Our Lady of Guadalupe. I think she is looking down, telling us to pray and pick up where she left off. She is trying to let us know the Lady picked Philadelphia because of all the things that are going on here with the killing of babies, breaking into homes and the beating of older people. The city needs our prayers and help. I just know she is looking at us from heaven. Let’s make her a promise and finish what Sister Paula started. I am not a real church person, but I do know a good person. That’s Sister Paula.

POLICE REPORT

■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

A

t 1:13 a.m. Sunday, authorities happened upon the complainant on the 1700 block of Sigel Street, where they learned the offenders had interrupted him as he tried to lock up his bicycle, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The victim explained that one of the strangers had pressed what he believed to be a gun to his head and said “Don’t move; don’t look at me; get on the ground; give me your money, and nothing will happen.” Heeding the warnings, he lost his laptop bag, which included his wallet, $50, a cell phone and identification, and watched the perpetrators run southbound on 17th Street, Tolliver said. He described the first as black, 6-foot2 and 170 pounds; and wearing a black hoodie and blue jeans; and the second as black, 5-foot-8, 140 pounds; and wearing the same items. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

The male victim reported that while walking toward Reed Street along Ninth Street at 12:50 a.m. Oct. 7, he saw five offenders approach him after exiting a minivan, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The lead stranger told him not to move, with the others taking his cell phone and wallet, with $70, after searching his pants. The foreign figures returned to the vehicle and fled, with the uninjured complainant observing them heading westbound on Reed Street, Tolliver said. He described the first offender as a black male, 6-foot-2 and in his 20s; having a thin build and a medium complexion; being clean-shaven; and wearing a black hoodie. He classified three of the others virtually the same, with the fifth described as an Asian male, 5-foot-8; having a thin build; and wearing a gray long-sleeve shirt and black pants. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Girl trouble

Authorities used surveillance video to made an arrest in connection with an East Passyunk Crossing homicide. Only minutes after unsuccessfully warding off a robber outside Las Rosas Bakery, 1712 S. Eighth St. Sept 26., Jose Gabino Aparicio, a 22-year-old resident of the 1800 block of South Rosewood Street, died at 4:36 a.m. of a gunshot Tyreek McNeil wound to his back and torso, Officer Jill Russell of the Police Public Affairs Unit said. Using film from the establishment and other businesses, police arrested 21-yearold Tyreek McNeil, of the 600 block of Mifflin Street, Sept. 28 and charged him with murder and related offenses. He was scheduled for a preliminary hearing yesterday.

A Bella Vista altercation left a complainant bewildered last week. The woman notified authorities that at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 10, she was crossing the street at Seventh and Christian streets when she observed three females crossing in the opposite direction, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The unknown figures began a conversation with her while a fourth remained across the street. Walking around the offenders, she tried to suppress their grabs for her cell phone, computer bag and purse, resulting in her screaming and a struggle, Tolliver said. The offenders delivered punches to her head and face, fleeing the area in an unknown direction without any of the items. The victim, who sustained minor injuries, described the attackers as black teenagers between 15 and 18 years old, with three being 5-foot-3 and having thin builds, the first sporting dark glasses, the second wearing a blue hoodie and the fourth as 5-foot-6, 170 pounds and having an Afro.

Alleged shooter caught


POLICE REPORT An employee of Center City Pretzel Co., 816 Washington Ave., met with authorities 2:16 a.m. Oct. 7, telling them the customer, after purchasing the site’s wares, threatened to shoot him and burn down the store, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Following his selection, the offender asked for the owner. Learning the proprietor was not present, he produced his firearm and made his threats, leading the complainant to notify authorities. The offender fled in a gray, four-door Toyota pick-up truck featuring New Jersey tags yet, according to the worker, soon after called the store and stated he would return, Tolliver said. The employee described the gun wielder, who neither requested nor took anything, as white, 5-foot-7, 165 pounds and 30 to 40 years old; having a medium build, red hair and a thin beard and mustache; wearing a white T-shirt and a dark baseball cap; and possessing a silver gun.

What’s the buzz?

Delivery dilemma A pizza delivery man became prey for four attackers last week in Queen Village. Making a stop on the 900 block of South Fourth Street at 10 p.m. Oct. 4, the driver called the number on the receipt and received instructions to come to the front of the location, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Approaching the spot, he had the strangers approach

him, with the first pointing a black and silver semi-automatic handgun at him and demanding his belongings. The victim said the aggressor struck him on the head with the firearm, with the others throwing punches that sent him to the ground, Tolliver said. While there, he had his cell phone and $25 taken before the attackers fled in an unknown direction. A detailed description of the offenders was not available at press time. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

POLICE REPORT continued from page 6

Loyal rumble An attempt to be polite led to a fight in Queen Village. Walking eastbound on South Street at 2:25 a.m. Oct. 5, the complainant and friends encountered a group of people at Legendary Dobbs, 304 South St., Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Placing his hand on the hip of an unknown woman after asking for her to excuse him, he had a companion of the female make known his displeasure with his action, with the offender yelling at him and engaging him in a fight. Other individuals joined in, with the complaintant coming to feel a sharp pain in his back. A crowd member sprayed Mace, with the other participants fleeing in various directions, Tolliver said. After meeting with police, the complainant received a transport to Thomas Jefferson Hospital for a chin laceration and four stab wounds to his back, including a punctured spleen. He described his attacker as black, 5-foot-11; 28 to 30 years old; having a slim build and a thin mustache.

Birthday blues A birthday party attendee became a robbery victim in Newbold Sunday morning. After leaving the celebration, the complainant encountered a group of six unknown males and said “Hello” to them on the 1600 block of South Mole Street, the same location for the event, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Using a gun pointed to his head and a knife to intimidate him, they acquired $160 and his cell phone. Having parted with his possessions, the victim fled on foot, Tolliver said.

A dispute between a South of South apartment’s tenants left one the victim of a Taser. Having gone through many confrontations with his neighbor, the unfortunate figure, a resident of the 2000 block of Catharine Street, reported on 4:15 p.m. Oct. 5 that his apartment lost power, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Venturing to the basement to tend to the circuit breakers, he reportedly saw the offender sitting in the room. Returning to his living quarters, he immediately lost power again and made another trip to the basement. Upon reaching the landing of the stairs, he needed to avoid the other tenement dweller who allegedly lunged at him and produced a Taser, Tolliver said. The complainant ran back to his apartment after suffering a zap to his right leg and called police, who arrested 48-yearold Dean Norris after a positive identification, charging him with possession of an instrument of crime, recklessly endangering another person, simple and aggravated assault and harassment. He posted 10 percent of his $5,000 bail Oct. 6 and is scheduled for a preliminary hearing Tuesday.

PHeaSt your eyes An area nonprofit is setting the table for tomorrow’s return engagement at The Philadelphia Navy Yard to benefit its City Harvest program. ■ By Lauren Hertzler Review Contributor

T

he days are getting shorter, the air is becoming crisper and scarves have made their way out from the back of the drawer. It’s the transition of summer to winter, of bright to bare trees, iced to hot lattes, avored with pumpkin. It’s fall. The season marks a grand transformation for farmers — yes, even those in the city — who can finally celebrate the end of the growing season with an exceptionally unique harvest of crops, including butternut squash, beets, leeks and kale. The Pennsylvania Horticultural Society, in an effort to commend urban growers for all their hard work this year, is hosting a celebration tomorrow at its Philadelphia Navy Yard warehouse, 5201 S. 13th St., from 7 to 10 p.m. For the second consecutive year, PHeaST has paired 10 urban growers with nearly 30 innovative chefs from around the region. Local farmers have donated crops to savory and sweet culinary masters, who have invented seasonal dishes for guests of the event to enjoy. Chef Mitch Prensky from Supper, 926 South St., said he’s passionate about garden-to-table cooking and enjoys making unique dishes filled with fresh, local ingredients. This year marks his PHeaSt debut, and he’s created mouth-watering creamy butternut squash grits with beer-braised leeks and smoked pork shoulder. “A few tests have been made, and they all turned out perfect,” he said. Kate Chimicles, PHS senior vice president of business development, said all proceeds of the event go to PHS City Harvest, a program that has helped local farmers grow 106 tons of fresh produce to feed families in need throughout Philadelphia since its 2006 initiation. “We really wanted to focus on the urban gardeners,” she said, adding that the event supports more than 45 urban growers in and around the city. “And with Philadelphia being the amazing restaurant town it is, we thought this was a great way to collaborate.” SIMILAR TO LAST year, the celebration will have a laid-back vibe with a rustic, funky style. PHS, a nonprofit committed to encouraging horticulture-related events and activities, has even created a PHeaSt fashion board on Pinterest that showcases the

variety of comfortable fall clothing that is expected to be seen, emphasizing that “eating fresh produce doesn’t have to be a fancy endeavor,” Chimicles said. Chandeliers made from recycled material will hang from the ceiling, disk jockey Nigel Richards will be producing background beats and a slideshow focusing on urban growers and their spaces. Guests, which PHS said can number more than 400 based on layout improvements to last year’s event, which sold 350 tickets, can warm up near two fire pits outside the warehouse doors, which will be left open, leading to a 30-foot-long center table stacked with urban farm information surrounded by 32 chef stations that will line the perimeter of the space. A ballot box will be located near the DJ area for attendees to cast votes for their favorite dishes. The three chefs who earn the most votes will be awarded at the end of the night, and three voting guests will be selected at random to win restaurant gift certificates. Attendees can mix and mingle while munching on delectable dishes and sipping on organic cocktails from Art in the Age Craft Spirits, Dad’s Hat Pennsylvania Rye Whiskey and JIN+JA, a beverage made

from fresh ginger, cayenne pepper, green tea, mint and lemon. Every year, Chimicles said she hopes attendees not only learn more about the City Harvest program while sampling great food, but also learn of restaurants in the city that have a commitment to the home-grown message. That’s why many of the eateries PHS reached out to for the event have a history of resourcing locally, she said. Anthony Mascieri, owner and chef at Plenty, 1710 E. Passyunk Ave., will be making coffee-braised lamb legs with baba ghanoush, pickled onions and fennel. The coffee twist on the plate isn’t new to Mascieri, who often collaborates with local small-batch roaster Rival Bros. for its special brews. “We use a lot of local ingredients, both meats and vegetables, in our café, so it seemed like a good idea to contribute,” Mascieri said. “Last year we participated, too, and made desserts. It’s such a fun and

beautiful event, we knew we definitely wanted to do it again this year.” Besides some additional décor and a few new chef partners, not much this year will be different from last, Chimicles noted. “We really just wanted to build on the successes that we had last year,” she said. “The guests had a great time, we wanted to keep that momentum going.” And she already has the same in mind for the third celebration. “We started planning next year before this year has even been put to bed,” she said with a laugh, adding that each year PHS aims to highlight different urban farms. “We try to bring the gardens to the event in the most creative and fun way we can.” SPR Tickets, which $150 for general admission and $300 for VIP, are available at phsonline.org.

JENKS SHAKE-UP continued from page 1

often shifting educators at less densely populated sites to more bustling ones. The school district also is evaluating the situations at South Philadelphia High School, 2101 S. Broad St., and Horace Furness High School, 1901 S. Third St., where, according to published reports, the Lower Moyamensing site could lose staff members while the Pennsport institution could see its faculty expanded. Moore revealed Jenks has experienced alterations over her son Stephen’s tenure there, including the present combination of second- and third-graders because of an influx of the former, yet believes another round of revisions could prove particularly daunting, especially because learners are already adapting to too much novelty. “He’s going through mixed reactions, like many of us, as we try to make sense of what we’ve heard,” she said of her thirdgrade offspring. “It’s bewildering.” She and the others devoted most of the morning to calling for action, as correspondence from Principal Siouda Douglas, whom the district did not issue clearance to speak, noted Jenks stood to part with Schwartz Friday, meaning 48 of its 305 registrants would end up in split classes. Needing more time to evaluate matters, the district delayed its reassignment enactment for two weeks. “In prior years, we had more ability to put in new personnel,” spokesman Fernando Gallard said in an acknowledgment of a recent budget dilemma that saw his employer cut thousands of jobs, including the Jenks’ guidance counselor position. “This year, we are taking personnel away. Matching those actions will require more time, and we also want to make sure we are doing the best match possible.” “Time” seems the key word for the Jenks community, as Moore et al wonder how instructors would maximize classroom minutes with more pupils. Gallard noted the district calls upon leveling to keep instructors within their Philadelphia Federation of Teachers mandates, 30 learners in kindergarten through third grade and 33 for fourth through 12th grades. If Jenks were to lose Schwartz, Moore, who also noted the kindergarteners will remain together, said the spot would have three combined first- and second-grade sections, the largest of which would contain 25 youngsters; three secondand third-grade groups each with 30 students; and two third- and fourth-grade divisions each with 33 students, the last figure exceeding third-grade teachers’ contracts. The proposal has Moore mindful of all the would-be affected children, especially her boy and his contemporaries, who will be preparing for the new Keystone exami-

nations in a setting that could mean they will not receive intense guidance and review of materials. As Jenks enrolls through the fourth grade and parents must consider standardized test results when pondering their children’s next educational destination, she sees any disruption in their learning as detrimental and reflective of a lax attitude among state and local leaders that Lisa Mattiocco likewise condemned. “Our children cannot have a future without a foundation,” the resident of 12th and Shunk streets, whose son Matthew, a

rifices, with parents understandably irate their sons and daughters are feeling the most intrusive consequences. “Put our students first” and “Cuts in education never heal” came bellowing from the household heads as they took turns giving accounts of what their progeny would need to endure with split classes as the new normal. Eager to see their children thrive for personal reasons, the parents also value the academic success at Jenks, which has achieved adequate yearly progress under the federal government’s No Child Left Behind law for the last decade. With standardized reading and math test scores far above the district average, the school has led Moore to call it a gem, though the passionate parent fears that thoughts from friends on transferring their children to charter or parochial schools or homeschooling them will become realities. “It should not matter whether my child is in a school of 300 or a school of 1,200,” Moore, who intended along with the other budding activists to head to district headquarters Tuesday evening for a School Reform Commission meeting, said. “Every child deserves a full-time guidance counselor, a full-time nurse and a teacher for every grade. It’s not rocket science; it’s responsibility.” Along with time considerations, the parent contingent is stressing money matters, with Moore leading the call for acquiring cash. “Governor Corbett, shame on you!” the throng shouted through the rain, touching on Gov. Tom Corbett’s vow to endow the struggling district with $45 million. “Fully fund our schools.” His adminstration had stated it would not release the funds until the federation of teachers helps the commission to generate a chunk of the $133 million in concessions the latter entity is seeking, with Corbett yesterday agreeing to grant the money. Believing “promises are promises,” Moore sees the infusion as a balm for the district’s recovery process that could possibly reunite schools with departed personnel. “We’re going to continue to be a voice for our children,” she said. “More information will certainly come our way, and we’ll press on.” With last week’s leveling delay announcement, the Jenks figures know their work must intensify, with Jennifer McCloskey Miller, mother of first-grader Natalie and fourth-grader Alyssa, hopeful their efforts will not be in vain. “Who knows what is up the School District’s sleeve?” the resident of the 2700 block of South Smedley Street asked. “I am hoping it isn’t the lull before the storm.” SPR Contact Managing Editor Joseph Myers at jmyers@southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

A Passyunk Square product will premiere the film version of his debut novel. ■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

O

wing to a devout religious upbringing that yielded a call to the priesthood and a recently completed career as a psychotherapist, Joseph F. Ruggiero revels in rearing positivity. Having forged communion between spirituality and humanism through his 2002 debut novel “A Rose on Ninth Street,” the 71-year-old will make his next attempt at preaching perseverance tonight at 7 when Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., hosts a screening of the movie adaptation. “I have great belief in the project because it’s in line with my feeling that we have to focus on growth,” the former resident of the 800 block of Wilder Street and present Bristol dweller said. “If you stop growing, you’re dead.” The Passyunk Square native knows negativity makes many people wilt, so he wishes for everyone to bloom by realizing the power of fortitude. Having retired three years ago after heading the Northeast Philly-situated Self Help Movement

LIFESTYLES for more than four decades, he sees the film as an extension of his vocation’s allegiance to healing, uplifting and inspiring. A disciple of transformation, he contends even the most forlorn folks can tap into luminous sources. “That’s essentially what the movie conveys, that quality of rising above tragedy,” Ruggiero said of the work, which moves his original 1956 setting to contemporary time and tells the tale of Monica Pontello, the titular flower, and her attraction to outsider Bob O’Connor. “It’s about what life makes apparent, our need to make healthy decisions and work on family relationships.” Shortly after the text appeared, admirers told Ruggiero his brainchild would make a worthwhile film experiment, with the writer going from reserved to roused in penning a screenplay. Serving as executive producer, he oversaw shoots with director Dwight Wilkins in Bella Vista, Passyunk Square and Bristol two years ago, with his Bucks County turf hosting a test screening 16 months ago. Drawing 318 viewers, the occasion inspired Ruggiero even more. “I don’t have dreams of Hollywood, but I see the whole collaboration as being able to help others,” he said. With improved mental health for spectators an obvious goal, Ruggiero also crafted an idea to increase financial security,

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

aligning himself with nine local parishes, including Annunciation BVM, 1511 S. 10th St., and St. Nicholas of Tolentine, 910 Watkins St., both key on his spiritual journey, to peddle tickets. The sites, schools and nonprofits will receive 50 percent of the proceeds from this evening’s show at the aforementioned East Passyunk Crossing secondary education location and subsequent presentations at Bucks County’s Conwell-Egan and Northeast Philly’s Archbishop Ryan high schools. “I write about conflicting situations, ones where if people see the benefits of making changes in themselves and their attitudes, there can be a feeling of getting ahead,” Ruggiero, who is prepping his third novel, “Crystal Umbrella,” for publication, said. “I think the finished film will give offer more ideas on how to relate to one another.” FOSTERING FELLOWSHIP HAS always appealed to the retiree-in-name-only. Having attended Annunciation BVM School, formerly 1148 Wharton St., now St. Anthony of Padua Regional Catholic School, 913 Pierce St., he felt an intense attraction to religious life and matriculated at Blackwood, N.J.’s Mother of the Savior Seminary to approach sanctity via the priesthood. Deciding after six years that he yearned for a different application of his

enthusiasm for encouraging, he returned home and landed a job through the court system, with handling probation and parole tasks as his chief charges. Realizing the severity of clients’ situations, he came to believe he needed more training, which he acquired at Ohio-based Antioch College and Antioch University. “I have a huge interest in problem-solving, especially in the early days when I saw them struggling with addiction,” Ruggiero said of his pull toward psychotherapy. “I determined they needed ways to relate, work together and express creativity.” Always a lover of literature, the cerebral individual intensified his respect for drama so much during his seminary stint that upon beginning to chart recovery options for Self Help Movement patients, he enlisted plays as therapeutic helpers. Penning 10 of their 41 works, which culminated in stagings at spots such as Palumbo’s Restaurant, formerly Ninth and Catharine streets, he noticed their endeavors helped him to blend his penchants for storytelling, rehabilitation and robust spirituality. “I have a passion for helping people and using my gifts for the benefit of as many people as possible,” Ruggiero said, adding writing has served as a healing activity for him in overcoming recollections of mixed health as a boy and less than stellar expec-

tations and predictions for his future. “I’ve tried to make connections and remind everyone to discuss the benefits of consoling one another.” An immense fan of fiction, which he has had to defend when people question his focus on it instead of material regarding drugs and alcohol abuse, Ruggiero sees the genre as entertaining, non-preachy and possessive of a positive message. “A Rose on Ninth Street” looks to affirm that by noting that turmoil, no matter how pervasive, can succumb to hope. “The support has to be there, as does the internal belief that we can manage even the most stressful matters,” Ruggiero, whose vast collection of companions includes his wife Bernadette, five children and nine grandchildren, said. After tonight’s premiere, the enthusiastic character will look to give his creation more exposure, with film festival placements and a spot on television as possibilities. “I’m thankful to have it out there,” Ruggiero said. “It’s an accomplishment I’m proud of.” SPR For tickets, visit josephfruggiero.com or aroseonninthstreet.com.

Cardella

By Tom Cardella Columnist

What’s in a name?

S

omehow the subject came up. A couple of years before Mom passed away, we got to chatting about why she and Dad hadn’t named me after him — Peter. Apparently, Dad never liked his name so they named me Thomas, which was his middle name. I happened to mention it was nice anyway that they had decided to give me his middle name of Peter. That was when Mom advised me I had no middle name. When I protested that I always used Peter as my middle name, she told me to go check my birth certificate. But why did I think Peter was my middle name all these years? Because that’s what you decided is how she put it. But I did it because I thought Peter was my middle name. She ended that particular conversation by concluding I was wrong, and it wasn’t the only time in my life I was wrong (she mentioned a few nonItalian girls I had dated), and it won’t be the last time I’m wrong either. I wanted to ask her if Thomas had really been Dad’s middle name. Come to think of it, Dad had always loved the cowboy hero of that era — Tom Mix. Gee, I could have been named after Tom Mix. I shouldn’t have been surprised about being unaware for the first 65 years of my life that I had given myself a middle name. A year earlier she’d told me my bachelor uncle Chibby was actually named Pasquale. Shouldn’t his nickname logically have been Pat? I found out Uncle Chibby did not like the name Pasquale, so he called himself Charles, which in South Philly became Chibby. That bit of information caused me to ask my Mom, whose name was Eleanor, why her sister Mary called her Helen. “It seemed to please her” was my Mom’s answer. Uncovering the real names in both my wife’s family and mine has always been tricky. It doesn’t help that by being raised Catholic, at Baptism you had to be named after a saint. I don’t have a big problem with that tradition because I lucked out with Thomas. However, somewhere in the world are there kids named after St. Notburga and St. Flosculus? I have no doubt these children either assumed aliases or became serial killers. Satan worshippers don’t have it too easy either. Would you like to be named Beelzebub? Another trick we use in our families is to claim we are naming our newborn after someone in the family when in reality

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

we are not. For instance, my wife’s grandmother was named Mongooch. I’m sure Mongooch was a really lovely person, but my feeling is if your family names you Mongooch, that act should be declared “cruel and unusual punishment.” What to do when your mother wants you to honor your grandmother by naming your kids Mongooch? You name them Norma, Debra, and Eleanor, and claim that you’ve named the kids after Mongooch. Who’s going to dispute you? Grandmother Mongooch was happy, the kids’ parents were happy and the kids who escaped being called Mongooch for the rest of their lives would hopefully have a better chance to grow up well adjusted. (Columnist’s note: In the end, the kid named Eleanor wound up calling herself Diana, no doubt after the Goddess of hunting and wildlife. Except there wasn’t any wildlife around Eighth and Catharine where Diana spent most of her life, nor in the church bingo halls she loved so much. The only hunting Diana ever did was after a number that would give her four corners). Immigrants also faced the possibility of American inspectors, because of their unfamiliarity with ethnic names, misspelling or outright changing their names. I have seen permutations of my surname Cardella. I had a friend Ben who, for over 50 years, thought his last name was Monastro until he discovered that his father spelled his own surname Monastra. When Ben questioned him about it, his father told him he had been misspelling his last name his entire life. Apparently, Ben’s father didn’t want to undermine his son’s confidence by correcting him. What the hell was the difference anyway, he figured. My wife’s maiden name is Scroccarelli. I’ve often marveled at how this surname survived the inspectors at Ellis Island. At one time, it was common in broadcasting to change ethnic surnames to Americanize them. In Hollywood, Allen Konigsberg had become Woody Allen. I had decided to stay with Cardella because as a disc jockey in Wildwood, I liked the catchy sound of “Tom Cardella, the Most Happy Fella.” “The Most Happy Fella” was a popular Broadway show at the time and, oh forget it, it was dumb. I had never even seen the show. I came to broadcast St. Joe’s basketball games with two Jewish friends, who decided to change their broadcast surnames. I had no problem remembering to introduce Ed Goldman as Ed Golden, but had a mental block going from Barry Rosenberg to Barry Ross. I stuck a large card in front of me with the name Ross, but much to his chagrin (expressed off-the-air in very creative profanity), I continued to introduce him as Rosenberg. I ask you, do WASPS have these problems? SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/opinion/ cardella.

Julian Assange (Benedict Cumberbatch) and Daniel Domscheit-Berg (Daniel Brühl) explore the consequences of releasing vital information.

It leaks ■ By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

O

ne of the final sentiments of the WikiLeaks drama “The Fifth Estate” is that great stories usually start at the beginning. In the case of this film, though, a preoccupation with beginnings, of multiple sorts, becomes its downfall. Firstly, rather than home in on the landmark release of more than 250,000 U.S. diplomatic cables (the meat of WikiLeaks’ real-life story, and surely, of this film’s translation of it), “The Fifth Estate” attempts to cram every bit of the organization’s rise into a frantic narrative. Only when it hits the so-called “Cablegate,” a leak prompted by now-jailed whistleblower Chelsea Manning (neé Bradley), does the movie truly become compelling. Written by “West Wing” veteran Josh Singer, whose script is a composite adaptation of two books about WikiLeaks, “The Fifth Estate” — named for entities considered beyond the fourth estate of the press, like bloggers, pundits, and citizen journalists — also tries to apply a ghostly backstory to site founder and mastermind Julian Assange (Benedict Cumberbatch), whose supposed motives for secret-trafficking are as hokey and overwrought as the film’s obsession with Assange’s white hair. Directed, inexplicably, by Bill Condon, a filmmaker whose genre-jumping is less an expression of versatility than a lack of personal style, “The Fifth Estate” hurtles through its first half at an impossibly hasty clip, its deluge of information apparently aiming to mirror the site’s own data influx, but playing instead like a distraction from the fact that there’s not much human substance here. Like “The Social Network,” this factbased cyberpunk flick hinges its senti-

ments on a friendship gone sour, this time between Assange and ex-partner Daniel Domscheit-Berg (Daniel Brühl). But since the movie favors narrative excess over character and relationship nuances, this brotherly struggle isn’t sufficient in grounding the film’s events. And despite a committed performance by Cumberbatch, and some inspired visuals underlining media’s irreversible changes (like an imaginary office space aptly placed in a desert), “The Fifth Estate” remains a rather gluttonous mess, as gratingly impenetrable as scads of encrypted code.

One of the absolute must-see movies of 2013, Richard Linklater’s “Before Midnight,” his third outing with lovable lovers Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Celine (Julie Delpy), catches up with the couple in Greece, where they’re vacationing with their two young daughters—new arrivals since 2004’s “Before Sunset.” The pair has aged, and so has the tone of their relationship, and the ways in which Linklater, Hawke and Delpy explore this (the actors co-wrote) are of such profound, universal depth that anyone who’s ever loved will relate.

Kathleen’s Pina Colada Cake

Ready to deliver

D

oesn’t the idea of flying to Key West and sipping Pina Coladas by the pool sound appealing? Suddenly, the alarm sounds, and those cloudy images of a week of fun in the sun are shattered by the reality of another day at the office. However, Kathleen Valle, of the 2600 block of Dudley Street, makes a Pina Colada Cake that takes the flavoring of the popular frozen beverage and transforms it into a must-have, after-dinner treat. Who knows, it may just trigger another night of sweet dreams. SPR

INGREDIENTS: 1 package pineapple flavored cake mix 1 package instant vanilla pudding 1 16-oz can of crushed pineapple 4 eggs 1/4 cup of oil 1 tablespoon of rum flavoring (optional use vanilla flavoring and after cake is baked sprinkle with 1/3 cup of rum instead)

noodles. The portions were so generous, some soup was packed to go for the next day’s lunch. The only disappointing dish was the octopus ($10). Although it had a fine consistency, it needed some char on the outside. I also found the sauce a little sweet. Service moves along at a good pace. Two women were in charge of the woks and sauté pans, expertly filling orders as the tickets came in. Several servers kept everyone happy as they slurped along in the bright red room. = Very Good

read an article on the Internet a while ago on how certain colors can affect one’s appetite. Red seems to be the one that will make a tummy growl and a mouth water with anticipation. It also is the color of celebration in Asian countries. People insert gifts of money in a lucky red envelope trimmed with gold. Ironically, red is my favorite color. I immediately got big eyes as I stepped into Cheu Noodle Bar in Center City. It is a casual place with a long bar where one can watch the chefs make magic with their woks, along with a window banquette and a high-top table in the back. The tin ceiling and back wall are both painted a bright lipstick red. A multicolored mural graces another wall. Music on the sound system ran the gamut from Simon & Garfunkel to Crosby, Stills & Nash to rap and hip-hop. House wines by the glass ($5) were a downright bargain. I sipped a grassy Sauvignon Blanc ($8.50) from Chile while Edward opted for Blue Coat on the rocks with a twist ($7). The friendly staff keeps the momentum going like a summer breeze. From the small plates, we selected a pork belly slider ($2.50), dumplings of the day ($5), broccoli with Vietnamese sausage and peanuts ($8) and octopus ($10). Pork belly must be braised a long time for it to be tender. This one was, and I especially liked the homemade kimchee pickle on top as it added a spicy kick. Imagine what might happen if a pierogi met a pork dumpling and had an offspring. Four round dumplings were filled

with seasoned mashed potatoes and tender pork and served in chili oil. It produced a party in my mouth. A fine contrast of flavors and textures was evident in the broccoli appetizer. A good-size bowl of steamed broccoli florets was tossed with bits of Vietnamese sausage, topped with chopped peanuts and bathed in a light and not-at-all-salty soy sauce. Beef and broccoli is a standard dish in many Asian restaurants, but the use of sausage was an unusual and tasty twist. The entrees are noodle bowls that patrons slurp with delight. I’ve enjoyed wonton noodle soup with bok choy with either pork or duck in a number of Chinese and Vietnamese restaurants. But creativity and imagination are the highlight at Cheu Noodle Bar when it comes to the art of making soup. We tucked into two different big bowls. One was brisket ($13) and the other duck pho ($14). Brisket is one tough piece of meat that must cook in liquid for at least four hours to come out fork, or should I say, chopstick tender. The squares of meat melted in my mouth. The big surprise was a fluffy matzo ball, which needed a hint of salt. The base for the chili broth was Korean-inspired. It packed an even punch of spice, but was certainly not four-alarm. Kimchee, bean sprouts, a hint of sesame and long, thin egg noodles kept me quite happy. I used my chopsticks to separate the noodles and slurped them with delight. The flavor of the duck pho was quite different. Fresh lime juice imparted a marvelous sour flavor that enhanced slivers of duck, very tender foie meatballs and rice

Francoluigi’s Mussels

Chef Frank “Franco” Borda

Francoluigi’s High Note Cafe Owner: Frank “Franco” Borda Opened 1995 215-755-8903 1549 S. 13th St. francoluigis.com

High Note Cafe, 1549 S. 13th St., may have been closed to patrons, and the stage may have been vacant, but the tenor was proudly crooning from the kitchen as he prepared mussels. “I am doing the two things I really enjoy,” the multi-talented owner, who has been cooking since his high school days, said. The restaurant has become a landmark at the corner of 13th and Tasker streets since opening as a pizzeria three decades ago. The High Note Cafe was added in the mid-1990s. Customers of the 60-seat establishment have the option of enjoying musical dining experiences several nights a week with Italian classics from Pasquale, Franco and friends 6 to 10 Thursday and Friday evenings, and a jazz duo 6:30 to 10:30 p.m. Saturdays. Luckily, the chef has plenty of support behind the kitchen doors to help the operation run smoothly.

“I’ve gotten people to work for me over the years and molded them into Franco,” Borda, who has a son Anthony, 18, and daughter, Maria, 17, with wife of 20 years, Teresa, said. For those attempting to make Borda’s mussels — instructions for a white or red sauce are included — at home, the chef, who also calls Passyunk Square home, suggests adding to the ambience by opening a bottle of Pinot grigio and playing Mario Lanza’s “Because You’re Mine.”

Outpatient Rehabilitation Therapy pm team at Thomas Jefferson University Hospitals, Methodist, is always ready to set things right and soon they will be doing it in a new, easily accessible space for the community they love.

Sunday, November 3

12

to 3pm

“Members of the staff live and work here. They provide great, quality care. People know each other in this community. We have a commitment to their care,” Ann D. Clark, Administrator of Rehabilitation Services at Jefferson and Methodist Hospitals, said.

Latest advanced equiPment

An equipment upgrade has been ongoing in anticipation of the December relocation and Methodist’s physical and occupational therapists and speech-language pathologist are eager to see their new home. What they will find when they get there will be better flow and, through the money raised, more state-of-the-art equipment and fresh furnishings throughout the first-floor space. “There will be easy access for patients with free parking right next to our building. Clark said. “We will have an even stronger connection to the hospital and the doctors right in the neighborhood.”

Improved stroke coordination

Another plus will be the ease of coordinating multiple services, such as a recovering stroke patient who may need simultaneous occupational therapy and speech-language pathology. The pediatric to geriatric set have come through Outpatient Rehabilitation Therapy’s doors, some with new injuries and others dealing with the onset of disorders. The goal always is to get patients back to a comfortable level of independence and a strong quality of life. “That’s what we do — we help people regain function. We provide one-on-one care. You can have all the shiny bells and whistles, but ultimately it comes down to the quality of the care and the strong relationship that develops between the patient and the therapist. That’s what sets us apart,” Clark said. But only with your support.

Joseph Myers talks

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

Birdie watching A Marconi East golf prodigy furthered his battle against a heart defect by earning All-Catholic honors. ■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

A

Alex Durelli has grown mentally and physically stronger through his play at numerous courses and looks forward to adding more accolades. S ta f f p h o t o s b y K at h r y n P o o l e

School, 900 W. Oregon Ave. With golf and academics at the forefront, his family found Roman Catholic enticing, with coach Dan Hoban and director of development and communications Steven Ziegler instrumental in making him a Cahillite. “I went there believing it would go a long way toward changing my life,” Alex said. “So far, it’s lived up to my expectations.” ARRIVING AT HIS Center City secondary site with a pristine game and a clean bill of health, the youth became a reliable roster presence immediately, with Hoban helping to hone his skills to the point where the learner believes he and his peers can achieve supremacy. “It’s a great bunch of guys, and we’re all looking to play better,” Alex said. “It’s definitely a goal of mine to leave here as a champion, and I think we have the pieces.”

at southphillyreview.com/blogs.php With his diligence as a chief strength, examples of which are his having smacked hundreds of balls during his boyhood hitting sessions and facing older opponents for extra motivation and inspiration, Alex joined an already capable squad and helped it to give parochial pursuers many difficult afternoons. Finishing as its second-ranked member, he played a huge role in its fifth-place Catholic League championship result Sept. 30 at North Hills’ LuLu Country Club. By tying for seventh out of 85 competitors with a score of 77, Alex earned All-Catholic honors, with Roman Catholic staffers meeting him at the final hole to give him plaudits. “That was a great feeling,” he said of garnering the praise. “Part of what I love about Roman is how friendly everyone is.” Courtesy of his crunchtime feat, Alex received entry into the Oct. 8 District 12 Championships at Huntingdon Valley’s Philmont South Golf Course, an experience he intends to replicate in his final three years as a high schooler. Having a heart defect makes him a tad guarded, but Alex, with one functioning lung, rarely feels fatigued and strives to believe nothing ails him. “Everything’s been getting better,” Durelli said of his relative’s test results. “We manage everything pretty well. This kid is the true definition of perseverance.” Alex, who especially enjoys math, has not envisioned how many trophies he might one day count, as he has come to take one day at a time, a much-appreciated lesson from his battle. A fan of Tiger Woods, 2013 PGA Championship winner Jason Dufner and Rookie of the Year Jordan Spieth, he believes he will go as far as his determination takes him. Never desiring to be the center of attention, he has come to accept that his fight and his skills make him unique, though he also realizes the severity of each has depended on many loved ones. “I like to think there’s so much ahead of me,” he said. “What I’m never going to forget is that I’ve had so much support from my family, friends and coaches. Golf’s a big part of me, and I’m grateful they’ve been there for that and other things in my life.” SPR Contact Managing Editor Joseph Myers at jmyers@southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

s a Roman Catholic High School freshman, Alex Durelli is receiving religious tutelage for the rst time. Whenever the curriculum will call for a discussion on miracles, the 14-yearold could likely contribute to the lesson plan composition, as he has continued to thwart a heart defect that threatened his life at birth. Seeing golf as a saving grace, he recently garnered All-Catholic distinction and is plotting his progression through the game. “I really try not to let anything affect me,” the resident of the 2800 block of South Mildred Street said Monday afternoon at the FDR Golf Course, 1954 Pattison Ave., where grandfather Sonny Durelli formally introduced him to the sport 11 years ago. “I think people have to be strong no matter what happens to them.” The Marconi East dweller has always needed to display diligence because of his status as a total anomalous pulmonary venous connection patient. The congenital heart defect alters blood’s customary course from the lungs to the heart and out to the body, with the veins from the lungs abnormally attaching to the organ, leading to oxygenated blood’s entering or leaking into the wrong chamber. When Alex entered the world, he needed immediate surgery, with doctors giving him a 10 percent chance of living through the procedure, hence his present self-estimation as a modern miracle. With periodic examinations causing no concern, the teenager is enjoying defying odds and bashing balls. “My condition was supposed to hold me back, and it did somewhat with contact sports,” Alex, who also played baseball for the Southeast Youth Athletic Association, Seventh and Bigler streets, and swam at the Samuel S. Fels South Philadelphia Community Center, formerly 2407 S. Broad St., said. “I wanted to come to feel

strong, and golf clicked for me. It’s taught me to get through stuff even when everything’s not right.” In handling his health and athletic pursuits, the youngster has called upon mom Deann and his grandfather for encouragement and guidance. The latter figure has seen his descendant show so much grit and gusto, he has felt it apt just to let Alex’s talent and tenacity take over and gradually ease into the background. “I’m here for whatever he needs, especially if it’s a mental aspect of the game,” the inhabitant of the 800 block of Wharton Street said. “He’s had to be brave for all of his life, so it really makes me proud to see him maturing and understanding more about everything around him.” His budding curiosity played a part in his high school decision. Alex attended A.S. Jenks Academics Plus School, 2501 S. 13th St., through fourth grade and graduated last spring from D. Newlin Fell
