Code of construct

Community members gathered in Pennsport to provide input toward revamping the City’s outdated zoning code. By Joseph Myers r e v i e w s ta f f w r i t e r

M

ost anniversaries deserve celebrations. That the Philadelphia Zoning Code this year hit 50 years without modifications, however, has not led to any partying. Nearly 40 community members joined with personnel from the Philadelphia City Planning Commission to discuss Philadelphia 2035, a comprehensive development plan, at The Mummers Museum, 1100 S. Second St., Oct. 26. See ZONING CODE page 12

It’s the Sam old song A Point Breeze jazz giant will commemorate eight decades of grooving with a special show Saturday. By Joseph Myers R e v i e w s ta f f w r i t e r

M

any people find difficulty in focusing on constructive matters for even eight minutes. Sam Reed has been blocking out all distractions for the last eight decades. At 7 p.m. Saturday, the Philadelphia Clef Club of Jazz and Performing Arts, 738 S. Broad St., and The Poor People Caravan for Christ will honor the 75-year-old’s diligence with its “Night to Remember” celebration, where the saxophonist will do what he knows best: Jamming with fellow jazz enthusiasts and stretching his art’s reach to locals. State Rep. Kenyatta Johnson will join with state Sen. Anthony Williams, U.S. Rep. Chaka Fattah’s office, and City Council in presenting him with a plaque and a legislative citation. Though born in Kingtree, S.C., Reed has called Point Breeze home for most of his life, as his parents ventured north when he was 2. Now residing on the 2200 block of Sears Street, he has remained a fervent lover of jazz since he took up the saxophone at age 14. Saturday, he will let his tenor saxophone stroll See REED page 9 Sam Reed, with his tenor saxophone, has recorded with music legends. S ta f f P h o t o b y G r e g B e z a n i s

To the Editor: As we have just voted, for three who we believe may in some way be the real thing, we must keep in mind, it was the only time we were taken seriously or needed for that matter. The horrors soon will begin to show their true faces. It is payback time. Big money got to three candidates first to strike a deal since the candidates made the suggestion of who wants to be a millionaire. Well, come on down and let’s make a deal. No matter what it may be or how gross it could be, we the public can be sure of one thing: We will be the ones to pay for it one way or another. How? It could be higher taxes placed on our backs so big money won’t have to pay any. It could be the loss of our privileges and rights so big money can buy more of the same thing. Or it could be the loss of American jobs taken out of this country by foreign big money donated by American candidates. Candidates call this action American diplomacy used on American people. We call it un-American. People should know by now politics is a dirty, filthy, unreliable, untrustworthy profession. A trust lender can turn on the people at anytime for any reason or purpose without any kind of accountability. Some people are so naïve that they actually believe what comes out of a candidate’s mouth. Wake up. What you hear today will be a different verse tomorrow. We have been lied to, mislead by false prophets, misused as subjects only, our rights taken and sold to the highest bidder, our use of democracy was denied, our taxes misused, our dignity removed, our rights to govern ourselves gone, all by the hands of those who still have the audacity to call themselves Americans. What makes a true American leader? A person who thinks of America only as a family. A person who would not for any reason or purpose sell out his family. A person who would only show the pride and loyalty and sense of honor to his family living in this country. A person who would not be bullied by his peers to reduce the dignity of his family in any way, shape or form. A person who would allow his family to enjoy the American way of life, as it is his right to do with their life, liberty and pursuit of hap-

piness, not what some other so-called American only provides them. Will we get this person in the new flock of horrors? Don’t think so. These creatures have been rolling around in dirt too long. Patrick Dio South Philadelphia

A parental perspective To the Editor: To the volunteer who wrote the letter (“Inside the halls” Oct. 28), I don’t think you are too knowledgeable about charter schools. A lottery is not choosing the best of the best. It means a parent has to actually get off their lazy butt, go to the school, fill out an application and jump through hoops to get all the info that is required to get into that particular school. If it is not done, usually the child’s name will not be on a lottery or waiting list to get into that institution. It might take a couple of hours or even a couple of days for all information including up-todate shot records, a physical, school records, etc. With all that said, why would any school allow a problem child into that school? To disrupt the kids who want to learn. And some teachers don’t deserve to be teachers. If they can’t produce, they should be held responsible. At least a third responsible with a third on the student and a third on the parents. A teacher should make phone calls to parents and get them involved. Let them know if their child is disrupting the class. My son went to Jenks until fourth grade, Fels until seventh and has since been in Mastery Charter. My son failed many, many subjects, but worked his way up after a year in Mastery to getting honors a couple of times. He is now in 10th grade and doing wonderful. At times, I’ve had teachers’ cell phone numbers and was told to call anytime about anything concerning school. You will very rarely find teachers in public schools offering anytime contact. I have always been very involved in my son’s schooling. My son gives 110 percent. There are times where he gets overwhelmed and has bad days or even weeks. But no matter what happens at home or at school,

there is someone pushing him to do better, and he does his best. The only thing that charter schools pick the best-of-the-best of is the teachers. Joseph Camodeca South Philadelphia

Order of protection To the Editor: Citizens are routinely robbed and murdered in city neighborhoods where state legislators have expressed a concern about blight and vacant lots. They have worked no solution to the murders and robberies that have gone on for years. Private builders and jobmakers will take care of blight and vacant lots if legislators will stop writing laws that interfere with and hinder lives and livelihoods of all Americans. An overabundance of useless, silly and enslaving laws has made life difficult since the 1960s. This is why America is in rebellion today. Legislators are not worth what they pay themselves with the money of American citizens, and they are not worth the trouble they cause through their spending, excesses and self-exaltation. The job of legislators under the Constitution is to protect life and property. They should write laws and enforce them to that end. The job is not to run everybody’s life, misusing the powers of the Constitution. Pennsylvanians, dutifully trying to protect their lives, property and neighborhoods, have sentenced dozens of murderers to death. Legislators, instead of helping fellow citizens, have opposed these executions. God teaches in Genesis 9:6 that because man is made in the image of God, he should be put to death by man, if he kills another man. “Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.” Man, believing man’s teaching is superior or the supreme and almighty God, teaches that “sanctity of life” prohibits man from killing another man. Man is not the determiner of that is just; God is. Man cannot be certain of what is just unless God, the creator, confirms it.

LoMo man turned himself in the day after allegedly robbing an Oregon Avenue bank last week and the same Packer Park bank twice in the past six months. Joseph Green, 45, of the 2600 block of South Ninth Street, allegedly entered Sovereign Bank, 2701 S. 10th St., at about 3 p.m. Oct. 27 and slid a note under a teller’s Joseph Green window that read, “I have a gun. Stay calm. Give me all your 100s first then work down to 20s.” Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detectives Division said. The teller handed him cash and the man fled the bank crossing north to 10th before heading west on Oregon. The following day, Green turned himself in at the 3rd District, 11th and Wharton streets. Detectives interviewed him at 10 p.m. at which time he admitted that he had robbed the latest bank and that he also was the man appearing in surveillance photos from the robberies at the United Savings Bank, 1510 Packer Ave., 2:30 p.m. May 25 and 11:40 a.m. Oct. 14, according to court documents. Green has not been officially charged federally, but locally, he was charged with robbery, theft, threats, possession of an instrument of crime, simple assault and recklessly endangering another person. During the Packer Avenue robberies, he carried a brown paper bag that he claimed contained a device, according to court documents. In the first attempt, he allegedly obtained $4,742 after threatening to detonate a bomb and then left the bag with a hoax device on the counter. The second attempt was not a success as he allegedly handed the teller a note that read, “You have a problem in this bag,” but left lacking cash and dropped the bag and a ball cap outside the bank.

Shooters in custody A second man was arrested and charged with attempted murder Saturday in con-

nection to a May shooting in the South of South neighborhood. Arrest warrants were issued for both suspects a week after the shooting that landed two in the hospital with a combined 11 wounds, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The day afEdward Speller ter the May 21 shooting police received a tip identifying one of the shooters as “Butter” from 24th and Reed streets. He was later identified as Edward Speller, 23, of the 1400 block of South 17th Street, Derrick White while “Heavy” was determined to be Derrick White, 20, of the 1200 block of South 23rd Street. White turned himself in June while Speller was arrested Saturday. On June 1, police went to White’s home to arrest him, Tolliver said. He was not home, but his family promised to he would turn himself in, which he did at 1:15 p.m. that day. Speller was arrested Saturday at 3:55 a.m. on the 2400 block of Federal Street. Both were charged with two counts of attempted murder, aggravated assault, criminal conspiracy, firearm violations and related offenses. At 3 p.m. May 21, White and Speller allegedly walked from Christian Street to South 24th Street and shot a 57- and 25year-old multiple times with automatic handguns before fleeing south on 24th toward Carpenter. Both were transported to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in critical condition. The elder man was struck five times — three to his chest — with one lodged near his heart — and twice in his right arm fracturing a bone, whereas the other man rode his bike to the 2300 block of Montrose Street before collapsing due to six bullets that struck him twice in the chest, twice in the left arm and once each in his left ankle and groin.

Disputed bond A local man was arrested and charged with assault and kidnapping Friday — two days after an alleged brutal beating of his girlfriend inside his home. Sean Parisella, 34, of the 1700 block of Wolf Street, was arguing with his 23-year-old girlfriend about their relationship at 3 p.m. Oct. 27, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. During the dispute, Parisella is believed to have slapped and punched her until she passed out and then ripped off her clothing and did not let her leave, Tolliver said. The woman’s father called her during the fight and his daughter requested he call a family friend, who is a Lansdowne police officer. The father went to Parisella’s home and transported his daughter to Abington Memorial Hospital after seeing her injuries that included a lacerated liver, black left eye, scrapes to her back and chin and pain throughout her body, Tolliver said. She was admitted in critical condition and upgraded to stable after surgery to repair her liver.

Parisella was arrested at 9:40 p.m. Friday and charged with aggravated assault, unlawful restraint, possession of narcotics, which were found on him when arrested and related offenses.

Double gunfire Two men were wounded while standing on a Point Breeze block Monday night. Police arrived to the scene on the 1900 block of Federal Street prior to a friend transporting a 17- and 20-year-old to the hospital, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The two had heard shots and fled east on Federal, but the younger man was struck by gunfire in the right arm and leg whereas the elder man received a bullet to the right side of his back. A medic transported the men to HUP in stable condition. Ballistic evidence was recovered at the scene, Tolliver said. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-686-3013.

fter working closely with the police for a March event benefiting a 1st District officer’s son who has leukemia, Nick and Theresa Selvaggi decided to show some gratitude for their commitment to the job. “I was blown away by how close they are and they’re there for us,” Theresa Selvaggi, of 28th and Shunk streets, said of why she and her husband coordinated the Oct. 28 1st District Appreciation Day. At about 4:15 p.m., officers lined up behind Captain Lou Campione, Lt. Joseph Bologna and Inspector Joseph Mooney as the Selvaggis, Vince Ricchiuti, president of Girard Estate Neighborhood Association, and Paul Rossi, the association’s chairperson of the safety and security committee, presented the district with a plaque and certificate for their service along with an array of food donated by local businesses. “On behalf of all the men and women behind us that are doing the heavy lifting, we are very, very grateful for the recognition. We’ve tried to keep that relationship [with the community] strong,” Campione said. SPR

Green sprouts

An ecologically-friendly space in Pennsport was unveiled last week with plans to incorporate it into the pending waterfront master plan. By Liz Wann Review Intern

T

he morning was offset by a light drizzle with dreary clouds in the sky. Sprouts of green surfaced soil and mulch; a promise of what is to come for a new park on the edge of the Delaware River. At the Oct. 27 opening ceremony, Mayor Michael Nutter announced the name of the new public space at Pier 53 as Washington Avenue Green. “Washington Avenue Green is the next step in our efforts to transform the Delaware River waterfront into a green and accessible space that residents and visitors from throughout the region can enjoy,” Nutter said at the event. “Transforming the waterfront is central to my administration’s vision for the future of Philadelphia.” 1st District Councilman Frank DiCicco, as well as Delaware River Waterfront Corp. (DRWC) President Tom Corcoran also were present at the official unveiling in which the 1.3-mile recreational trail unveiled last May cuts through. “In this plan, DRWC is proposing the creation of new public spaces at key street intersections approximately every half mile along the six-mile stretch of the Central Delaware,” Corcoran said of the spaces to be incorporated into the Master Plan for the Central Delaware, which is expected to be revealed in February. “The purpose of these new parks is twofold: To provide quality public access to this majestic river to residents and tourists alike; and to spark new private investment on adjacent parcels, resulting in new jobs and tax revenues for the City.” The William Penn Foundation, Pennsylavnia Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Philadelphia Water Department, Pennsylvania Horticultural Society and Coastal Zone Management each contributed funding for the project. FOCUSED ON THE ecology of the Delaware River and stormwater management, the new park features revolutionary developments that promote a green city. Stream system drainage patterns have been cut into the surface of existing concrete and filled with soil and plants, which is intended to begin the natural

decaying process in two areas in the park called the dendritic decay gardens. Floating wetlands are ecological features of the park as well. These small-frame platforms are made of hardwood, coir fiber and fabric sock material in an effort to recycle used material while the rain garden is a stormwater best management practice designed to collect rainwater, absorb the runoff and improve the water’s quality. Behind these ecological endeavors stands the design team of Biohabitats, a partner of the DRWC. To make the design plan and concept a reality, Biohabitats teamed up with local engineers, contractors and Centre County-based environmental artist Stacy Levy. Her art expresses itself in the way she harnesses natural elements and makes the activity of nature more important. “It’s a compliment when you can’t tell where the art begins and the landscape

ends,” she said. As opposed to most public art displays, Levy said her work is “subtle, but powerful” and described the concept for Washington Avenue Green, which sits just behind the Sheet Metal Workers’ Union Hall, 1301 S. Columbus Blvd., as a “matrix of hard and soft.” She worked with what the concrete landscape already offered her, placing broken concrete where vegetation will grow in a rubble meadow and reusing it to create walls for sitting. “A little more each day concrete is being broken out of the site and water channeled into the rain garden,” Levy said. The plans call for Washington Avenue Green to become a lush vegetative green space for the community. “It’s been raining and dreary all morning,” Nutter said. “When we opened this park, the sun came out.” SPR Comment at www.southphillyreview.com/news.

ADAs assigned to South Philly

A

group of assistant district attorneys will work solely for South Philly covering local police districts including the 1st, 3rd and 17th as the District Attorney’s Office realigned Monday. The changes will eliminate delays and build ties to the community, which District Attorney Seth Williams sees is needed to reduce crime. “The DAs will be working more consistently, more actively and cooperatively with the detectives, probation officers, the community leaders, the town watch groups and the civic associations, and will also understand more passionately the patterns of crime,” Williams said at an Oct. 28 press conference outside the Criminal Justice Center, 1301 Filbert St. Locally, the South Division Bureau led by Chief Lynn Nichols is comprised of the 1st — west of Broad, south of Moore and the Navy Yard; 3rd — east of Broad; and 17th District — west of Broad; Lombard to Moore. Assistant Chief Caroline Keating and Assistant District Attorneys Noel DeSantis, Danielle Graham, Peter Kim, Elizabeth Kotchian, Geoff MacArthur, Francis McCloskey, Derek Rike and Eric Stryd make up the rest of the bureau, according to a District Attorney’s Office press release. All South Philly based preliminary hearings will be held on the 11th floor of the Criminal Justice Center with lower level misdemeanor hearings taking place at 11th and Wharton streets. Williams had hoped to switch to community prosecution in his office before he was even sworn in, but he said the change will be more effective in joining forces with the courts. “This is the first major step of addressing public safety in the City of Philadelphia in how these cases get tried,” Chief Justice Ronald D. Castille said. “We’re not looking for more guilties or innocents, we’re loooking for justice.” The City’s Civil Division is ranked No. 1 in the nation among large cities and he hopes the Criminal Division follows, but the battle is far from over, Justice Seamus P. McCaffery said. “This is a marathon folks,” he said at the press conference. “We’re not going to take care of all the problems with one fell swoop. This is going to take us months, maybe years, but we’re committed.” “I think what is critical is we ensure that our victims are not victimized twice and that the criminal justice system does not let them down,” Deputy Commissioner of the Philadelphia Police Department Richard Ross Jr. added, “so in a myriad of ways, we think this will be a positive thing for our criminal justice system. We support this wholeheartedly.” SPR —By Amanda L. Snyder

REED continued from page 1 down memory lane. The night will include three performances, with two vocalists joining Reed on the bill. A portion of the proceeds from the event will benefit Grands As Parents, a North Philly-based organization honoring grandparents who are rearing their grandchildren. “Mr. Reed is a great man. He has been playing the saxophone with such passion for longer than many people have been alive,” Leola M. Stowall-Muse, the director and founder of The Caravan, which aims to help the impoverished to escape poverty, said. REED BEGAN HIS musical infatuation shortly before picking up a sax, being a part of the drum and bugle corp at the American Legion Lincoln Post 89, 1940 Federal St. Frequent blisters necessitated his switch when at Norris S. Barratt Middle School, formerly at 1599 Wharton St. Attending Mastbaum Vocational/Technical High School in Kensington, he intensified his skills, leading to the formation of his first band, a nine-member ensemble dubbed “Sam Reed and the All Stars.” “We had a few local weekend gigs, playing at dances and house parties in the begin-

‘The club had something called ‘The Breakfast Show,’ where Cole or Armstrong would start at around 6. I also came into contact with Sammy Davis Jr. and Sarah Vaughan, so I was really able to thrive.’ —Sam Reed ning,” Reed said. “One of my favorite places was the [defunct O.V. Catto] Elks Lodge on 16th and Fitzwater. After some time, we kind of became a city band and moved to locations in West and North Philly.” Patterning their sound after jazz behemoths such as Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie “Yardbird” Parker, Reed and his mates grew in confidence each time their instruments rent the air. “We were young cats hoping to play with big acts,” Reed, who wielded an alto saxophone in his formative years, said. While a teenager, he encountered Parker while taking in a show at the now-demolished Earle Theater in Center City. On a break, the legendary Kansan asked Reed to hold his sax. Shaking while holding the device, Reed inadvertently drew laughter from the crowd. In ’97, he learned that a Kansas City resident had purchased that horn for $165,000, placing it in a museum in Parker’s honor.

“To think, I once held $165,000 in my hands,” Reed said with a chuckle. Once an adult, he lost all apprehension when dealing with headliners. In ’54, he traveled to Wildwood, N.J. for a gig at the renowned Club Bolero. His success there led to his joining the band of Johnny Lynch, a trumpeter who had played with Gillespie, two years later at Atlantic City’s Club Harlem. “When he hired me, Johnny had me playing a baritone. The next year, I switched to an alto,” Reed said. His talent helped to accentuate performances by luminaries such as Louis Armstrong and Nat King Cole. “The club had something called ‘The Breakfast Show,’ where Cole or Armstrong would start at around 6. I also came into contact with Sammy Davis Jr. and Sarah Vaughan, so I was really able to thrive.” Good fortune continued for Reed in ’59 when he began a 12-year stint at North

Philadelphia’s Uptown Theater. Shortly into his tenure, he became the house leader, a title that eventually morphed into musical director. Beginning in ’63, when “Sam Reed and His Band” backed a Labor Day weekend performance by Jackie Wilson, and ending in ’71, Reed and his cohorts provided accompaniment for a veritable compilation of showstoppers. “We tested for Little Stevie Wonder and were able to keep him from having to bring musicians to the Uptown. We also worked with Diana Ross and the Supremes, Martha and the Vandellas, Marvin Gaye, The Temptations and The Four Tops, to name a few,” he recalled. Prior to his ascension to director, the Uptown focused on rhythm and blues and rock ‘n’ roll. “I was a bebopper at heart,” Reed said, referring to the early form of modern jazz. “Therefore, I added jazz to the other shows.” His move allowed Ramsey Lewis, Gloria Lynne, Nancy Wilson and others to complement Sam Cooke, Fats Domino, Isaac Hayes, Wilson Pickett, Lou Rawls and Otis Redding, all who benefited from Reed’s adept hands. Closer to home, the ’60s gave him opportunities to mingle with Frankie Avalon, continued on next page

ZONING CODE continued from page 1 The 90-minute meeting featured interactive discussions on three themes and suggestions for projects born out of four spring meetings throughout the city. Choosing their own tables, attendees, mostly from South Philadelphia, split into five groups and traded ideas on feasibility, which will give the Planning Commission tips on how to proceed in the initial five years of what will yield Philadelphia’s first citywide comprehensive plan since 1960. Zoning “seeks to protect public health, safety and welfare by regulating the use of land and controlling the type, size and height of buildings,” according to the Philadelphia Zoning Code Commission’s website, which adds that “goals of modern zoning codes include transit-oriented development, pedestrian-friendly commercial corridors and preservation of the historic fabric of neighborhoods.” Loaded with fake money, residents assigned fiscal values to various projects. For each plan’s theme, Connect, Renew and Thrive, they received a budget that totaled half of the respective projects’ likely cost. With guidance from city planner Anthony Santaniello, a resident of the 2400 block of South Watts Street and co-founder of the Lower Moyamensing Civic Association, a group with residents from Bella Vista, East Passyunk, Passyunk Square and South of South could fully or partially bankroll preferred ideas. Carrying a $3.5 billion , Connect addressed transportation, which included metropolitan networks and international gateways, and utilities. Proposed rapid transit service connecting the Northeast to the Broad Street and Market-Frankford lines won spring approval, and Santaniello’s group fully funded it, as well as the Broad Street Line’s extension to the Philadelphia Navy Yard. Reconstructing Interstate 95 also earned favor, but increasing transit on the Delaware River waterfront had naysayers. “That would be connecting a casino to a casino,” Becky Harclerode, of the 700 block of Warnock Street, said, referring to Fishtown’s SugarHouse Casino and the stalled Foxwoods Casino on South Columbus Boulevard. THE CITY’S FIRST zoning code appeared in 1933. The ’60 comprehensive plan assisted in shaping the Market East portion of Center City, Society Hill, Penn Center, JFK Plaza and the Far Northeast. At 642 pages, the code comprises 55 different zoning designations such as residential, commercial or industrial. Through the Zoning Code and City Planning commissions, the City could consolidate similar districts or eliminate those rarely used, according to the Zoning Code Commission’s website. Meetings held last May and June — none

Planning Commission employees Ian Litwin, with play money in hand, and Anthony Santaniello, pointing, led one of the groups that addressed the City’s plans for zoning reconsiderations. The community members gathered for one of four fall meetings as part of the Philadelphia 2035 project. s ta f f P h o t o b y g r e g b e z a n i s

of which occurred locally — generated 800 ideas focusing on neighborhood centers, housing, industry, transit, roadway improvements, energy, parks and agriculture. Two dozen concepts appeared on sheets according to their relation to the themes. From an overhead presentation, residents learned that the Planning Commission has evaluated suggestions with respect to the two-tier nature of the 2035 plan. The first tier, a citywide plan, is 10 months into what will be a 12- to 14-month analysis of the physical form of Philadelphia. Early next year, the Planning Commission will issue a 200-page document that will combine its studies with community feedback, Alan Urek, director of the Strategic Planning and Policy Division, said. With the first tier completed, the Planning Commission’s Community Planning Division then will instigate its 18 district plans, which will require at least four years before the Planning Commission can make decisions on zoning remapping or land use change. Individual neighborhood plans will come from these concepts, which the Planning Division devised through census tracks. Population forecasts, which predict that Philadelphia’s population could be 1,650,000 — a 2 percent or 100,000 person increase — by 2035, partially influence the practicality behind certain ideas. Having that knowledge, Santaniello’s respondees tackled Renew, which focuses on open spaces such as stream valleys and waterfronts; cultural and historical re-

sources, including the preservation of historical places; natural resources, such as ecosystems; and the public realm, which includes urban design and public art. Completion of the Delaware and Schuylkill river trails won nods as part of a $127 million budget, as did and completion of all stream valleys, such as Tacony and Frankford creeks, leading to the rivers. The Thrive theme resonated most, as it concerns neighborhoods, economic centers and land resources. Infill housing, which inserts additional housing units into approved subdivisions or neighborhoods, would spark the Temple University/North Broad area. “Definitely fund that project,” Fauzia Garcia, of the 2200 block of Kimball Street, said, with husband Zamir seconding this and his wife’s other favorite — improvements to the Benjamin Franklin Parkway landscape. Other popular Thrive aspects would create strong employment hubs outside of Center City and center a neighborhood around Pattison Avenue by making a transit-oriented design, wherein the community would become a compact, walkable neighborhood depending less on cars and more on public transit. “This project needs funding,” Erik Berger, of the 1900 block of South Jessup Street, who is involved with the East Passyunk Crossing Civic Association, said. “Transit helps the economy without hurting the environment.”

Having spent Thrive’s $355 million budget, members reflected on their decisions and took pride in their civic role. “We need to be aware of what our city could look like in 25 years. Meetings like this put us in the discussion,” Harclerode said. As the plan’s primary author, the Planning Commission will help to update Philadelphia 2035 every five years. In conjunction with City Council and an external advisory board, it will continue to examine the input from residents and additional stakeholders over the next few years. Per the Communities to the Planning Commission, a proposed zoning map change would need approval at a community meeting. From then, a public meeting would give more chances to offer feedback. If the Planning Commission endorses a proposal, it would draft a bill for introduction in City Council, and if passed by Council, the mayor’s positive verdict would allow the Planning Commission to change the City’s official zoning maps. The evening gave Santaniello cause to believe the physical development of the City will keep it aesthetically and competitively relevant. “Good ideas came from our discussions,” he said. “We’ll see what happens.” SPR For more information, visit www.philaplanning.org.

A local mom turns her personal fretting into a practical guide to navigating the pressures of child rearing in an environmentally conscious way. By Jess Fuerst Review Contributor

T

he anxiety of having a child is nothing new. Parents have been worrying about their kids for ages. However, the list didn’t always include lead poisoning, organic food choices or the potential dangers of medicine. “I was thinking, ‘Write what you know.’ And I finally found something that I knew. It was being a neurotic mother. But it’s a different kind of neurotic than my parents were. It’s a generational thing,” Paige Wolf, 31, said. The new mother of now-14-months-old Sam found herself in the midst of daunting questions about raising children in a modern world. With her own worries fueling her research, she began penning the book “Spit That Out: The Overly Informed Parent’s Guide to Raising Children in the Age of Environmental Guilt.” “Being a green mom, I could share all this great stuff,” the 12thand-Lombard-streets resident said. “A lot of it is simple and affordable and manageable. And a lot is so hard and we beat ourselves up about it. [The book] is a leg up.” Putting the pen to paper last January, Wolf, the owner of Paige Wolf Media & Public Relations, finished up the 12-chapter book a few months ago. With the writings being shopped around, Wolf decided to self-publish “Spit That Out” in time for the 2010 holicontinued on page 16

day rush and is looking to have copies for sale later this month or early December. “I put the call out there and I was shocked people that I’ve known through my whole life, my husband’s friends’ wives and people I went to high school with and famous comedies and authors, that they were sitting there worrying about whether the fruit was organic,” Wolf said. “I didn’t know that it’s so universal, these kinds of concerns.” Wolf decided she would fill this informational void by reaching out to field experts and amassing the information in book form. The strengths and eccentricity of “Spit That Out,” however, are not just comprehensiveness, but a practical approach to becoming — and maintaining — a green household. “It’s about the small steps, doing what’s doable and what possible. I don’t think everyone needs to live in a hut with no electricity. I’m going to use air-conditioning when it’s hot, that’s what makes me relatable,” Wolf said. “There are things that are so easy there is no excuse not to do it. Composting is really easy.

RAISING A CHILD in an environmentallyconscious fashion is a natural extension for Wolf and husband, Mike Bederka, as the two have instituted sustainable living practices in their everyday lives. “About five, six years ago I redirected my PR firm to do entirely green practices and clients who were green and had sustainable practices,” Wolf said. “Now, I can say my clients are all green or at least have some strong green practices. If I want to, I will take on a client who doesn’t have green practices or sustainability, if they come to me and are interested in going green.” As a journalism major at the University of Delaware, Wolf worked for the school’s paper, “The Review,” where Bederka was her editor — a role he continues to this day. She wrote for local papers and continued this skill upon graduation. “I ended up getting a job at the Grand Opera House. It was a job in PR. I don’t know how it happened,” Wolf, who commuted to the Delaware arts and music venue from Philadelphia, said. “I was the PR manager and it was a really intense job for a 21-year-old.

changes prohibitive and the idea that people are alone in feeling overwhelmed by the available information. “Number one, I want people to know they are not alone. And they are not the only ones Googling things up late at night,” Wolf, an Abington native, said. “It definitely helped me and answered questions in some way. If you have the personality type that is a worrier. Some people think I am calm, cool and collected. I think I can appear that way on the surface.” With writing done after the recent addition of an epilogue, Wolf is working to put the finishing touches on the manuscript before readying it for publication. The successful completion of her first book was a personal victory a long time in the making, but hardly an endpoint. “This [book] came from me worrying and I’m constantly finding new things to worry about,” Wolf said. “So I guess I’m not going to stop writing.” SPR

“It was a massive learning experience in PR, graphic design, journalism — a super boot camp. After a year-and-a-half I quit.” The on-the-job training she received was put to good use when she approached a neighborhood boutique and offered to write them “a press release for 50 bucks. They started getting press and their vendors started asking me and then restaurants and it snowballed to what it is now.” It includes managing no more than 10 clients out of her 19147-ZIP code home — the base of her public relations operation for the past five years. “[Green practices were not] something I did since I was a child,” Wolf said. “Like a lot of people in the country, six or seven years ago ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ and ‘The 11th Hour’ came out and this truth [about the current state of the environment] came out in the media. “That was when the whole nation woke up. It had a really big impact on me and learning more and taking on practices in my personal life and it moved in to my professional life.” Wolf realizes the demands of a “green” lifestyle can seem daunting, and she hopes “Spit That Out” will help to dispel untruths like costs make any green practice

Nina (Naomi Snieckus) becomes just another victim in the latest chapter of the Jigsaw saga that comes to life on the big screen in the gut-spilling 3D.

By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

I

t’s always amusing to see how the “Saw” films will attempt to disguise their gruesome “gorno” violence as a perverse form of upright moral justice (“These sinful victims had it coming,” the movies rationalize). The thin mask of principle is as silly as the swirly-cheeked head of the marionette that stands in for the infamous Jigsaw killer. All these movies really care about anymore is tearing folks to pieces, and “Saw 3D” — which, given its lack of pop, may just as well have been called “Saw VII” — barely even tries to squish a decent plot behind all the blood- and gut-spilling. And, by Jigsaw, is there a lot of spillage. I dare say “Saw 3D” delivers, if what you seek is deeply repulsive carnage and bizarrely rampant violence against women. Among the random killings that lazily flank the already-lazy central story are the sawing in half of an Asian woman (whose sausage-link entrails splatter of the floor) and the obliteration of a blonde girl’s face by the wheel of a speeding car (her teeth, cheekbones and nose hairs go flying at the camera). In the main thread, one woman is cooked alive while another’s face is ripped apart, and this after two other gals have had their eyes, mouth and/or throat run through with jagged spikes. Comparatively, the male characters (played by C-Listers like Sean Patrick Flanery, Costas Mandylor and Cary Elwes) meet more humane ends, if not survive altogether. One gentleman is merely hanged, while two others are even rewarded for letting a female get the ax.

The whole thing reeks of twisted, resentful geek revenge, as if returning director Kevin Greutert and returning screenwriters Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan were sending bloody valentines to their ex-girlfriends (who, let’s face it, were wise to head for the hills). This is not entertainment, no matter how loud the sickos in the back row holler when [insert sharp object] pierces flesh. “Saw 3D” is cheerless and merciless, and while some will no doubt see the following as a compliment, it leaves you feeling gutted.

As horror-ible as it gets

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I november 4, 2010

igotry is not as straightforward as we would like to believe. Bigotry is not just the provenance of bigots. It insinuates itself into the soul of all of us. Whether it takes root and blossoms into a poisonous weed depends on how hard we fight it. Only honesty, reason and persistence can effectively keep the poison of bigotry from overwhelming us. The problem is in this age of television and YouTube, the sound bite crowds out context. Honesty can be mistaken for bigotry. In the speed of the of the all-encompassing 24-hour news cycle, a public figure’s reputation is gone before it can be defended. Such is the case with Juan Williams. Williams, who had been employed for many years as a commentator for NPR, formerly National Public Radio, and Fox News. In hindsight, being employed by organizations as diverse in their views was a high wire no one could traverse without falling off. And in today’s politically poisonous environment, there is no safety catch to save you when you slip and fall. By now you are no doubt aware Williams was fired by NPR for remarks he made on a recent episode of “The O’Reilly Factor” where he said he gets “nervous” on an airplane when he sees passengers dressed in traditional Muslim garb. Williams went on to say that he doesn’t regard all Muslims as extremists, and that he wasn’t justifying his reaction, just being honest about them. Williams has written several books, the most famous of which is “Eyes on the Prize: America’s Civil Rights Years, 19541965” about the civil rights movement. He has been accused of a lot of things in his life such as being a lap dog for Fox News or as an undistinguished pundit, but as far as I recall, being a bigot is not one of them. We are too quick to fire people who exercise their freedom of speech. Both the left and right are guilty of trying to squelch speech they find disagreeable. The firing of Williams follows the dismissal of Helen Thomas, Dr. Laura Schlessinger and Rick Sanchez because the words they spoke are offensive to some people (Schlessinger actually quit under pressure). Some of their remarks offended me. There is no constitutional right to not be offended in America. There is a constitutional right to free speech. I understand free speech does not give you the right to yell “fire” in a crowded theater, but none of these ex-

amples, especially in the case of Williams remotely comes close to crossing the line. All of us have irrational fears we confront daily. Some stem from prejudices we thought were long ago confronted and buried. Such fears often arise reflexively, and often embarrass us. All we can do is confront those fears honestly. I believe it’s what Williams was doing when he voiced his irrational concerns about passengers on planes dressed in Muslim garb. Reading the context in which he spoke, he wasn’t saying his views were justified, in fact, he said the opposite. Sometimes I think the real difference between bigots and fair-minded people are that only the fair-minded folks ever confront the remnants of their bigotry honestly. The individuals whom we know are real bigots are the first ones to deny any trace of bigotry. The best way to differentiate between the truly bigoted and the truly honest is context — the context of their words present and past and the context of their actions. Does it mean we should give folks a free pass? No, but why is it that we use sound bites rather than a person’s entire life to judge them? In response you can say, ‘OK, I can accept Williams should not have been fired on that basis, but what about Dr. Laura? She has a history on her radio show of making incredibly stupid and offensive statements about homosexuality and more recently race. She was not fired for her remarks, but decided to leave the air.’ Was she forced to leave? We don’t know. In the context of her past public remarks, she appears not only to be bigoted on matters of homosexuality and race, but misinformed as well. I would not fire her because the damage to our concept of free speech outweighs any good feelings about taking her broadcasting platform away from her. In Dr. Laura’s case, I just turn the dial. The fact it is NPR that fired Williams brings another controversy into the equation. NPR, unlike FOX, gets taxpayers dollars. NPR likes to point out that government funding amounts to only about 2 percent of its entire budget. If that is indeed the case, then NPR would be better off without any government funding so it can be free to pursue its own agenda without becoming a political football in the battle between left and right. Let’s be real. Conservatives pushing for cutting off funds, not only to NPR, but PBS as well, are merely pursuing a longstanding agenda to get rid of what they perceive as taxpayer funded liberal-slanted media. In an ironic twist, NPR’s firing of Williams has given impetus to ending its government funding. And it might not be such a bad thing for NPR or the newly rejuvenated career of Williams. SPR

Although I’ve lived with diabetes for over 25-years, after major surgery I was unable to control my sugar levels. My doctor recommended Mercy Home Health for the Telehealth Monitoring program. Every morning I tested my blood sugar, weight and blood pressure. My results were electronically sent to my Home Health nurse who called or visited me if any results were outside my normal range. Now that’s quality care! The Telehealth Monitoring program gave on-the-spot results which allowed me to better manage my diabetes and my overall health. I’m now focused on living a healthier lifestyle and as a result I’ve lost weight, my blood pressure is stable, my sugar levels are under control. I now have more energy than I have had in years. At 72 years young, Mercy has given me a new lease on life!

very family has its favorite recipes. The more popular dishes tend to be a weekly staple on the dinner menu while others are saved for birthdays and anniversaries. Carol Myers had trouble choosing her family’s No. 1 dish. However, if the resident of the of the 1300 block of Castle Avenue was putting together a top-five of her household specialities, her Glazed Carrots would definitely make the list. The side dish can be paired with just about any entreé, including the Thanksgiving turkey. Carol said she hopes the recipe becomes a hot topic with all of her neighbors. SPR

Carol’s Glazed Carrots INGREDIENTS:

2 cups of cooked carrots, sliced and drained 4 teaspoons of constarch 1/4 cup of sugar 6 ounces of pineapple or orange juice 1 teaspoon of dried mint 2 tablespoons of butter

DIRECTIONS:

Good for the eyes

In a saucepan, mix the sugar and cornstarch over medium heat. Add the juice, stirring frequently. Let boil for about three minutes. Stir in the carrots and mint, then add the butter. Continue stirring until the butter is melted.

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

S

ince last spring, Tria, off Rittenhouse Square, has become my favorite lunch haunt. I enjoy the unpretentious atmosphere, friendly, yet thoroughly professional staff, enticing menu and the best iced tea in the city. I often lunch alone at the bar with a book or newspaper for company. Even my sister Sandy, whose idea of lunch is usually a burger and fries, likes the eclectic selections. I looked forward to reviewing Biba, Tria’s “little sister” near the University of Pennsylvania. Although Sandy thinks dinner equals brown, white and green food, I wanted to see how she would react to an evening meal at Biba. The establishment serves wine and beer, a selection of artisan cheeses and small plates large enough for two. Night falls early now. It was almost as dark in Biba as it was outside, although we could easily read the menu. Tria and Biba are known for their knowledgeable staff, especially when it comes to wine. Sandy and I asked the barkeeps for recommendations. The gentlemen hit the mark. A glass of 2009 Sauvignon Blanc, Domaine de la Potine from the Loire Valley, France ($8) falls in Biba’s zippy category. It was light, slightly grassy and crisp. The wine accentuated our first few courses. Chilled asparagus ($4.50) were al dente and served with shards of pecorino pepato, chopped hazelnuts and topped with a light lemon vinaigrette.

“Oh, this is so good,” Sandy said. “Can you give me some cheese?” Our next dish was so tasty, Sandy wanted to order another one. Piquillo peppers ($5.50) were stuffed with Basque tuna and seasoned chickpeas. The creamy mix played off beautifully against the slight firmness of the peppers. Our wine made this dish taste even better. Roasted beets with feta and honey almonds ($4) was a cool combination of crunch, tang and sweet. Although roasted beets has become ubiquitous in Center City restaurants, this version was light and fresh. Biba orders its bread from Georges Perrier. The baguette was just what you would assume Perrier’s bakers would create. It was dreamy when Sandy and I dipped it into the olive oil. We wanted to share a glass of red wine to go with our cheese selection and panino. “I would suggest the Malbec,” the barkeep said. The Malbec ($8.50), from the bold category, was an ’07 blend Don Tiburcio Bodega Benegas from Mendoza, Argentina. I took a sip and pronounced it perfect. It was bold and rich and warmed us up. I knew I wanted a blue cheese. The folks at Biba list it in the racy category. It was a toss up between the Stilton and the Valdeon from Spain. “I’ve tasted the Spanish blue before,” I said, “but I never sampled this particular Stilton.”

Exquisite dishes accompanied by a glass of wine makes an evening at Biba, 3131 Walnut St., memorable to the taste buds. P h o t o b y I l a n a Ba g e l

Colston-Bassett Stilton ($6.50) is handcrafted in Nottinghamshire. It is made with cow’s milk. Sandy and I dove right in, smearing it lovingly on pieces of bread as we sipped the Malbec. This is an example of how something so simple and made with care can be so downright satisfying. The panino ($9) was a vegetarian delight. It was made with fresh mozzarella from Claudio’s in the Italian Market. A fragrant meaty eggplant caponata was added to our sandwich along with heady basil pesto. The sandwich was cut in half so we could easily share it. Biba seats about 30 and opens at 4 p.m. Hopefully they will be open for lunch in the near future. Service was perfect. Share plates arrived with each course, so Sandy could indulge in this new way, for her, of enjoying an evening meal.

The

pregame

show

Local chef Christopher Thames res up his twist on a popular Sunday dish that is perfect for lounging around and watching the Birds.

By Phyllis Stein-Novack Food Columnist

I

t’s that time of year again football fans. For the past few months you may have been tailgating or inviting friends and family over to watch the games. It’s time for a new twist to that classic dish – chili. It is a hearty and nutritious one-pot wonder. An old-time butcher from Texas once told me Texans make chili with tiny cubes of chuck. He cut up several pounds for me and it turned into the best version I ever made or tasted. Chef Christopher Thames, whom I christened “the king of gumbo,” recently told me he made chili using boneless chicken thighs. “It’s what I had in the freezer,” he said. “I just pulled items from my pantry such as canned tomatoes, black beans and spices and turned it into chili.” Photographer Ilana Bagel arrived at the appointed hour and Chris slipped into a new, crisp cotton chef’s jacket. “We do not use beans in chili in Texas,” Chris said. “Chili is a Mexican dish and it refers to the peppers. Con carne means ‘with meat.’” His recipe is free-form. You can add or substitute any number of ingredients. The “must” is about three pounds of boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into cubes. “They must sear in hot oil, in batches so they brown and caramelize,” Chris said. “Do not crowd the pot or they will not brown properly. Just remove each batch

with a slotted spoon and place the chicken in a bowl. With three pounds of chicken, I would say cook one-third at a time.” It takes time to prep the vegetables for chili. Once the chopping and dicing is done, the chili cooks by itself in no time. Cornbread is a must with chili, especially when it is hot from the oven and slathered with butter. Ilana and I were in culinary heaven when Chris removed the cornbread from the oven and cut it into wedges. One bite and the “oohs and aahs” said it all.

■ Chris’ Firehouse ■ Chicken Chili Ingredients:

Vegetable oil, enough to coat the bottom of a 4-quart pot 3 pounds of boneless skinless chicken thighs, patted dry with paper towels. 2 large yellow onions, cut in large dice 1 large red onion, cut in large dice (reserve about 1 cup for garnish) 5 large bell peppers of choice, cut in large dice 3 fat cloves of garlic, chopped 4 medium tomatoes, cored and cut in large dice 1 28-ounce can of crushed tomatoes, preferably San Marzano 1 28-ounce can of water (use can from the tomatoes) 1 12-ounce bottle of beer such as Yuengling Black & Tan 3 15-ounce cans of black beans, rinsed and drained

4 tablespoons of chili powder 1-1/2 tablespoons of cumin 2 tablespoons of granulated garlic 1 tablespoon of imported smoked paprika 1/2 teaspoon of ground coriander 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano Cayenne pepper and Tabasco, to taste Kosher salt, to taste Shredded sharp cheddar cheese 2 large avocados, sliced (optional) To see a video of chef Christopher Thames making chili, visit www.southphillyreview.com/multimedia.

Directions: Heat the oil over high heat. Add the chicken cubes, one-third at a time, and allow them to sear. Do not stir-fry. Turn them once or twice. Remove the chicken with a slotted spoon and place in a bowl. Add the onions and peppers and sauté them for about 10 minutes or until the onions are translucent. Carefully add the remaining ingredients, a few at a time, stirring constantly to blend well. Bring the contents of the pot to a boil, lower to medium and simmer for about 30 minutes. Taste and correct for seasoning. Place the cheese in a bowl and the avocado slices on a plate. Serves a small army.

Note from Phyllis: Chris’ Firehouse Chicken Chili freezes beautifully.

■ Chris’ Cornbread ■ Ingredients:

1 cup of all-purpose flour 1 cup of yellow cornmeal 2/3 cup of sugar 1 teaspoon of kosher salt 3-1/2 teaspoons of baking powder 1 egg 1 cup of milk 1/3 cup of vegetable oil Knob of butter to grease 9-inch cake pan

Directions: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Once the oven is hot, place the cake pan in the oven to warm it up. In a large bowl, whisk the dry ingredients together. In a separate bowl,whisk the wet ingredients together. Using a rubber spatula, pour the wet ingredients into the dry and blend well. Remove cake pan from the oven. Swirl the butter around the pan until melted. Pour the ingredients into the pan. Bake for about 25 minutes. Use the tip of a sharp knife to test for doneness. Serves six. Note from Phyllis: Chris kibitzed he grew up on Jiffy cornbread mix. He still likes it. SPR Comment at www.southphillyreview.com/foodand-drink/features.

Lori, Ashley, Bubba, Mandy and Shane would like to thank all our family and friends who supported Mike and our family throughout his illness and subsequent passing. Thank you to those who came to the house, attended the funeral mass and to those who phoned, sent mass and sympathy cards, flowers and donations. A special thanks to EOM and members for their time and generosity for a wonderful luncheon. Also, a special thanks to our neighbors, friends and relatives who helped us get through this sad time. You were there when we needed you most and we were comforted by all with your presence during Mike’s final days. Your kindhearted gestures, like bringing food and helping out in anyway you could, were so deeply appreciated. We hope this acknowledgment will be accepted by all as an expression of our gratitude and appreciation. Mike was truly loved by so many people and is now “watching over us from up above”.

ga Kopiec has a severe case of wanderlust.The John W. Hallahan Catholic Girls’ High School junior moved to South Philadelphia from Krakow, Poland last August, adding the United States to her impressive travel itinerary, which includes stops in Austria, Germany, France, Slovakia and Switzerland. She owes her next trip to her legs, as she will run in Saturday’s PIAA AAA Girls’ Cross-Country Championships in Hershey. At her parents’ urging, Kopiec left Poland to become ever more worldly. “They thought living here would be a nice experience and a great opportunity to learn the language better,” the 17-year-old, who began speaking English at 6, said. She settled with an aunt and an uncle on the 1900 block of Bainbridge Street, joining the student body of the Logan Square-based school courtesy of the latter’s research. At 4,384 miles apart, her native land and her new home have forged her love of running and antiquity. “My mother is into sports, so we would run together on weekends. In Poland, I ran for myself, so this is my first year of competitive running,” Kopiec, who also enjoys skiing, noted. She will cap her successful plunge with Saturday’s endeavor. Last month she earned a ninth-place showing at the Philadelphia Catholic League Championships in Fairmount Park, running a personal best of 21:05. Last week, she qualified for Saturday’s contest with a 15th-place finish at the District XII championships, also in Fairmount Park, with a time of 21:15. That result will enable her to compete with runners from more accomplished programs. “Iga is a great runner. I’m proud that she will give Hallahan a chance to sneak in among the big schools like (Archbishop) Wood and (Cardinal) O’Hara,” coach Steve Smith said. Kopiec practices every school day for her 5,000-meter adventures, excursions equiva-

DVYAA TOUCH FOOTBALL

E.O.M., Front and Moore streets, is holding biddy hockey registrations for ages 3 to 7. Games are played Saturday mornings. The $30 fee includes T-shirt, five weeks of instruction and trophy. Call 215-271-1994 between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. or e-mail murawskiphysed1@aol.com.

MEN’S TOUCH FOOTBALL

A men’s touch football league is looking for players and teams for the 2010 season. Games are played weeknights at Capitolo Playground, Ninth and Federal streets, beginning in November. Call Charlie, 267-784-7599. In her first year of competitive running, Iga Kopiec will look to help her school to join the state’s elite cross-country programs this weekend. S ta f f P h o t o b y G r e g B e z a n i s

lent to almost 3.1 miles. Indoor track might occupy her this winter, but not before she enjoys a restful conclusion to the year. “I plan to go to Canada after Christmas,” she said, a trek that would cross off America’s neighbor from her travel list. “I also really want to go to Spain.” SOUTH PHILADELPHIA AND the city at large remind her of Poland’s second largest city, whose population of 750,000 is slightly less than half of her new home’s. “Life here is more convenient than in Poland, but in Polish cities and this one, I like the old areas,” she revealed. Schooling breeds more convenience for the fan of interior design. “In America, I have fewer subjects, so I feel I can learn more,” she said, disclosing that her Polish education had her handling 13 subjects a year, six more than her Hallahan haul. Though two years away from postsecondary studies, Kopiec has pondered university life with as much vigor as she considers a run through the woods.

“I like to discover new things. For university, I am undecided over where I might go. I could possibly begin in Poland then go somewhere else,” she said. No matter where she matriculates or lives, she will remain grateful for those closest to her and proud of her heritage. “I miss my friends and my parents,” she said when mentioning she celebrated her birthday last week, “but I am enjoying my time here.” Trips to Port Richmond keep her close to Polish food. Though Americanized, she still prefers her native cuisine to American grub. “I do not like fast food,” she said. She does like having fast feet, however. Kopiec will leave for Hershey Friday to know what to expect from the course, which she will tackle the next day at 10 a.m. “I find it surprising to be in the championships. I consider myself not really a competitive person. I just like the feeling I have after a run,” Kopiec said. SPR Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.
