ho could forget that memorable rock-the-baby slam dunk Julius “Dr. J” Erving unveiled in the 1983 NBA Finals where he practically took off from the three-point line punctuating the Sixer’s four-game sweep against the Lakers at the Spectrum? Or what about the lore that Bobby Clarke’s Broad Street

Bullies created by dominating the league during the ’74 and ’75 seasons where they won two Stanley Cups, also at “America’s Showplace?” Since the Spectrum’s opening in ’67, countless memories have been lived by millions of Philadelphia sports fans. But Nov. 23, in front of Erving, Clarke and former teammate Bernie Parent, ComcastSpectacor Chairman Ed Snider, Mayor Michael Nutter and Spectrum faithful, those

memories crashed down brick-by-brick with a series of blows from a wrecking ball to the south side of the arena. “It’s a little overcast because it’s a sad day and the memories will be taken away,” Erving, a NBA Hall of Famer, said. “Memories are forever if they’re done the right way, and I think there were a lot of memories that were done the right way at See SPECTRUM page 13

Taken for granted To the Editor: We have a vast majority of people living in this country who truly believe what those who hold authority tell them is believable. This of course is a misconception far from reality. Nothing is believable. The course SEPTA took is by far the worst case of distrusted, unforgiving, unbelievable and un-American dealings to date. SEPTA is using taxpayers’ money and profits from its fares to build railcar bodies in a foreign country and assembling them in a local establishment here. This is the same company that bolstered it would hire several hundred local residents to fill its work force. Well it didn’t happen. The company only is interested in the low-tax package the city and state provided them. Where was SEPTA’s big shots? The company has trainees on the job to be told how to tighten a bolt. SEPTA — using the power the state allowed it to use — saw it was unfit to use a company in this city, this state or even in the country to allow an American workforce to build the bodies of railcars that other Americans would ride on. Were we taken for granted? Only if you believe so. We have witnessed large American corporations using back alley, lowlife dealings against the American people, but to have a state-operated agency use the same tactics upon the same people who support this agency by the tax dollars and high fares they pay is truly un-American. Those railcars could have been built somewhere in this country. There are American people out there who could have used the jobs that SEPTA sent somewhere else. The profits that a company would have made to build any part of the railcars would have stayed in this country if it were given the chance to do so. It’s dealings like this that has brought our American workforce to its knees. Yet, our local and state representatives are proud to announce they have the power to put us on our knees anytime they want and for whatever reason that comes down the line. Yes, we are taken for granted, because no matter what we say or do, they will continue to do what they want to do when they want to do it. Patrick Dio Sr. South Philadelphia

International crisis To the Editor: It does seem to me or any other sensible person that North Korea is asking for a deliberate and thorough butt kicking, and hiding behind China’s skirt is going to cause them problems they have not anticipated or saw coming. They are deliberately provoking the world like little children because their daddy has been protecting them, but this has become too serious of a game to be allowed to go on without some very serious repercussions from the entire world. China is being goaded into investigating a very possible war that neither China or the rest of the world can ill afford, particularly since the country has become such an industrial giant. It is quite obvious through past military deliberate provocations that they are seeking a war? For no reason at all, North Korea torpedoed a South Korean warship, killing the crew members and sinking their ship. Again for no reason, they shell and bombard an unsuspecting and illprepared city, killing many innocent civilians. They’re known to manufacture all sorts of materials of war and selling them to our enemies. Planned movements that have been ongoing for years now suddenly have become a big issue. It also has added to this deadly conspiracy. We have defiant Iran pushing us toward the inevitability of the war they both are seeking, leaving us without any way out. How much longer are we to play this useless waiting game that only gives them both more time to get ready to strike? These are not reasonable people. They are following a long planned operation and nothing we have done can stop it. Frank Cavallaro South Philadelphia

a parliament and a prime minister. We have a constitutionally controlled congress, judges and a president. “We the people” have established these controls by our Constitution. The law, like government, exists to serve the people for the betterment of the people. If we hire a number of persons to maintain our household, its upkeep, repairs and the resources for stable and healthy continuity, and we find over a period of time that these persons are untrustworthy, incompetent and wasteful with no sensitivity to the values of our household, we will fire them and hire others or do the work ourselves. We have for decades been hiring persons, such as these described, to run our government and we must fire them. They see nothing wrong in their failures. If lawyers objects to our actions, citing laws and violations, we must teach the lawyers that all legitimate laws serve the American people and their ideals. We must have the laws corrected if necessary and correct the lawmakers who voted for the foul laws and if necessary remove them from office. The body of law is a tangled web that is often used by the wicked in law, government, politics, business and all that the law governs, to deceive and abuse citizens. The households that are our cities, states and country require for their proper upkeep, good judgement and knowledge and love for right and disdain for wrong in the persons chosen to run them. Individuals who sell their votes should be disqualified because they work to swindle us, canceling votes for good people for money in their selfish pockets. A necessary step in reform of our voting process is the requirement of identification when voting. This will make it harder for fraudulent voting through selling and cheating. This matter should be taken up immediately by legislators or put to the American people for a referendum.

Nov. 17 s you all may know by now, Prince William popped the question to longtime girlfriend, Kate Middleton. Well, dang. Ever since I dressed up like a princess for Halloween when I was 7, I had these aspiring hopes to marry into British royalty. My only chance to accomplish this almost unattainable goal was to seduce and make Prince William fall in love with me. His younger brother, Harry, is far too wild and his father, Charles, is far too old. When I went to England this past autumn, I Googled the pubs that the prince

frequented the most in London. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t actually get to go to any of these bars because I was perpetually lost, but the thought that I could still maybe run into him entertained me. I think a lot of girls, including myself, dream of being swept off their feet by a white knight with an accent and loads and loads of money. As Hemingway once wrote, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t it pretty to think so?â&#x20AC;? What we have to realize is that white knights come in all shapes and sizes. Some donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ride horses, they drive huge Jeeps with wheels the size of a small dinosaur. Sometimes they carry us off into the sunset on their skateboards. Whatever, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re good boys. Women in todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s world are so picky and demand so much from men. Gen Y women have seen three waves of feminism and thus expect our men to cry and read Nicholas Sparks. The traditional â&#x20AC;&#x153;tough guyâ&#x20AC;? image has been taken over by the stylist, metro-sexual that gets pedicures and tweezes his eyebrows. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing necessarily wrong with this, but our ideas of what â&#x20AC;&#x153;masculinityâ&#x20AC;? is is in flux ... SPR

A Whitman boy allegedly murdered his mother Friday and reported her missing two days later.

teen is believed to have beaten and killed his mother with a hammer, dragged her body to an alley near their home and covered her with debris before filing a missing person report two days later, according to police. Police responded to the 400 block of Jackson Street Sunday where 16-yearold Kendall Anderson Kendall reported that he had Anderson not seen his mother, Rashida Anderson, 37, since Friday, Officer Tanya Little of the Police Public Affairs Unit said. South Detective Division initiated an investigation and when family members returned to the home, they discovered incriminating evidence, which was reported to South Detectives, Homicide Sgt. Tim Cooney said. “The last time [family members] returned, which was [Monday] morning, they found what appeared to be blood spatter and blood smears on the walls,” he said. As a result of these interviews, a search warrant was obtained for the home, Cooney said. The domestic argument that occurred Friday evening appears to have started in the second-floor bedroom, downstairs to the kitchen and out the door into an alley behind the home. The teen was taken into custody for questioning Monday when, Cooney said, he admitted that he killed his mother and dragged her body out of the dwelling. Cooney said the boy directed police to the corpse that was found in an alley covered in household debris. “There was a dresser out back with no drawers, flower pots, cinder blocks — that kind of stuff was put on top [of the body],” Cooney said. Anderson was pronounced dead upon locating her body at 1:37 p.m., Little said. The cause of death was blunt force trauma to the head, but she also sustained burn marks and two puncture wounds, Cooney said. Kendall Anderson was arrested at Homicide Division at 9:10 p.m. Monday and was charged with murder, abuse of a corpse and possession of an instrument of crime.

Cop arrested for assault A police officer, who resides locally, has been charged with assaulting his live-in girlfriend and has been suspended from the police department. Deric Lewis, a 22nd District cop, which covers part of North Philadelphia, allegedly struck his girlfriend inside their home Saturday. At about 4 a.m., 1st District police reDeric Lewis sponded to the home for an alleged domestic violence incident, Sgt. Ray Evers of the Police Public Affairs Unit said although he would not release the block of the incident because the girlfriend also resides at the location. Some threats were made during the verbal dispute that is believed to have turned physical due to signs of a struggle inside the residence, Evers said. The woman sustained minor injuries that included bruising. Lewis, 30, was charged with terroristic threats, simple assault and recklessly endangering another person. The four-year veteran was suspended for 30 days with the intent to dismiss.

Double parking dilemma Shots rang out on a local block while two were inside a double-parked vehicle early Monday. A 28-year-old parked his Chevy Monte Carlo on the 400 block of Greenwich when an unknown man fired shots toward the automobile from Fifth and Greenwich at 12:30 a.m., Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The driver tried to back the auto up, but struck two other parked cars, so instead he and his 32-year-old passenger climbed out the driver’s side door and crouched down near Fourth until the shooting ended. The younger man was transported to Jefferson Hospital by a private automobile for a laceration to the left side of his head from when bullets shattered a car window, Tolliver said. The passenger was unharmed. Ballistics evidence was located at the scene, Tolliver said. A description of the offender was not available at press time. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-686-3013.

Police Report

Teen wounded Police located a 17-year-old with three bullet wounds near Dickinson Square Park last week. 3rd District Police responded to a reported shooting on the 1600 block of South Fifth Street and discovered a teen suffering from three wounds — one to his hip, one to his left ankle and one through his right calf, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The teen was transported by medic to Jefferson. Police did not have any further details as of press time. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-686-3013.

District Attorney Seth Williams advised consumers to be wary while tackling their holiday shopping this year. “There is always somebody looking to separate you from your money,” he said in a press release. “The best course of action is prevention. Many thieves choose their victims because the thieves see an opportunity. If you take away the opportunity, chances are you won’t become a victim..” He noted various scams that his office and police are monitoring such as online membership programs; smishing, or text messages seeking personal information; small and frequent credit card charges that evolve into larger charges if unsuspected; skimmers, or scammers who obtain PIN numbers at ATMs, gas stations, restaurants and stores; and counterfeit products.

A man was robbed at gunpoint in Queen Village during the early hours on Black Friday. A 27-year-old was about to enter his vehicle on the 400 block of South Street at 5:24 a.m. when two men approached him with one placing an unknown object against his neck, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The two demanded his belongings and, after handing them his wallet, keys, money and phone, commanded him to walk away and not look back. The 27-year-old heard a car door slam and screeching tires before running in to NET, 501 South St., Tolliver said. The offenders were described as black, thin, 6 foot and wearing dark clothing. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-686-3013.

than 70 businesses and corporate partners. “We had 6,000 children we could not help,” O’Neill said of last year’s difficulties in adding more students to the 20,000 the company has aided since 2002. “With our funding, we will be able to offer 35 more scholarships this year, with plans to increase the figures to 1,000 per year.” An $80 monthly donation could facilitate a child’s entry into one of the five-county archdiocese’s 182 elementary schools. O’Neill asked that donors make a four-year commitment to what he tabbed as “the least expensive, highest return investment, an education in the Catholic school system.” BLOCS Executive Director Joe Garecht never wants any student to leave Catholic schools until graduation and certainly wants more children at the schools’ desks. “For Catholic schools, just barely surviving isn’t an option,” he said. His organization’s initiative allows for immediate enrollment into a family’s preferred Catholic elementary school. It also seeks to link a student to a sponsor who will financially assist that learner during his or her Catholic school career. “We bring potential sponsors to schools to give them a sense of the facilities and the work ethic of the students,” Garecht said. “We want to take students all the way through their eighth-grade year.” For RoseAnn Bougioukas, a former South Philadelphia resident who now re-

sides in Kensington, Garecht’s admission suits her finances just fine. The mother of third-grader Santino, lauds Annunciation for its approach to educating and to ensuring parents they have made the right instructional selection. “I had heard it is a good school,” Bougioukas, who had also considered fellow Passyunk Square school St, Nicholas of Tolentine, 913 Pierce St., said. “It has been so helpful in making our lives easier. Everyone who interacts with Ms. Tanghe and Father Ron [Jakows, Annunciation’s pastor] should feel blessed.” Her son enjoys knowing his education will continue in his mother’s old neighborhood. “I like my friends and teachers. Playing with computers is fun, too,” Santino said, inadvertently referring to the facts that all of the archdiocese’s schools have Internet access and most have wireless connections. Second-grader Journey Leonard shares Santino’s love of technology. She and sister Charneice, an eighth grader, are enjoying their first year in a Catholic school. Last year, Journey attended Stephen Girard Elementary School, 1800 Snyder Ave., and Charneice had lessons at a Center City charter school. “I had always wanted a better education for my girls,” their mother, Helene Leonard said. She made the switch then encountered financial woes that prompted a talk with

Tanghe. “I am extremely excited to be an Annunciation parent,” Leonard, of 20th and Wharton streets, said. “The curriculum is a bit different, but teachers give more attention to students.” Journey enjoys that attention, while Charneice relishes her role as a class representative. “I like making adjustments to new situations,” the older Leonard child said. In the expansive library center, the Annunciation students fraternized with one another and their parochial peers. Through the generosity of Dunn, who left most of his estate to Catholic charities and education, other schools’ libraries soon will have more eager information seekers. For Geracht, himself a product of Catholic schools, last week’s celebration signals a new era in Catholic instruction. “I want for us to be in every school,” he said, mentioning that Sacred Heart of Jesus, 1329 E. Moyamensing Ave., will join the initiative, which covers only tuition and no travel costs, next year. “The best days for Catholic education in Philadelphia are ahead of us.” SPR For more information, visit www.blocs.org.

INSIDE THE HIGH school’s library information center, the children joined with parents, principals and program supporters to learn of BLOCS’ mission to make economic barriers a non-factor in choosing a highperforming school. Chairman Michael G. O’Neill detailed his Conshohocken-based company’s provision of awards that will allot $1,000 for this and next school year to each bright-eyed book bag toter. That system contains a stable of highperforming schools, which O’Neill noted are institutions where at least 70 percent of students perform math and reading at grade level. Scholarship recipients include those who had been on a financial assistance waiting list, those who previously attended Catholic school before financial hardships caused them to withdraw and current parochial institution learners whose families are struggling. The scholarships derive from a $750,000 bequest from Robert C. Dunn, a Bryn Mawr contractor who died last August. For the aforementioned school years, BLOCS will endow the program with an additional $130,000 of fundraising drawn from more

Annunciation B.V.M. students Santino Bougioukas, from left, Johnny Latanzo, Alex Latanzo, Charneice Leonard and Journey Leonard are among seven local students receiving aid through a scholarship fund.

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I december 2, 2010

tually, and that, No. 2, is close,” Latanzo, of the 800 block of Federal Street, said. “Sending them there is kind of like sending them with family.” Representing 13 elementary schools within the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, 50 students, including the Latanzos, were in attendance at the official launch of the Business Leadership Organized for Catholic Schools (BLOCS) Bright Futures Scholarship Fund Nov. 24 at the Center -City based Roman Catholic High School. The group, which included five learners from Annunciation B.V.M., 1148 Wharton St., comprises half of the recipients of twoyear scholarships that will give financiallychallenged families one fewer worry. Tuition for archdiocesan elementary schools differs, but Regina Tanghe, Annunciation’s principal, noted her school’s range is $2,880 to $3,300. Latanzo contacted Tanghe once her difficulties arose, and funds became available last month. Their appearance will keep her from considering new schools. “I had done no research on other schools. I had no interest. I want to keep peace of mind,” Latanzo said. Alex does, too. He cited math as his favorite subject, but he spoke highly of learning about religion and the bond with his friends and family that his school helps to forge. “I am happy for this scholarship,” the 10-year-old said. “I would have felt sad if I would have had to go.”

SPECTRUM continued from page 1 the Spectrum. I’m really happy to be here and play a small role in the demolition ceremony but I feel as though my contributions to the memories for the 11 years I played here were anything but small, hopefully.” Although the basketball legend received the most applause, the outnumbering Flyers fans sporting their orange jerseys gave color to the ceremony. Many expressed sadness as they recollected games they had attended at the Spectrum. New Jersey native Mark Smith remembered the first game he went to in ’75 as if it were yesterday. “It was so special to come here and see the Flyers. I remember everything these guys did. It’s just sad seeing it go,” Smith said after hearing Parent and Clarke share the stage. ALTHOUGH IN THE past Snider expressed his love of the Spectrum by calling it his baby, he was not as enthusiastic last week as he left before the wrecking ball hit. “I come with mixed emotions,” he told the crowd. “On one hand, I’m really sad to see it go, but on the other hand, I know that I’ll always have the memories. We will all have them. “I don’t know if I want to see it go down,

but let me know what happens.” Because of the Spectrum’s structure, implosion was not an option, so instead the traditional wrecking ball was chosen. It will not only allow the bricks and iron to be recovered for future use but also to give fans the opportunity to purchase a single brick for $39.95. “It’s not really the end of an era. It’s really the start of a new one for our great city,” Nutter said. It will take approximately four to five months for the building to be completely demolished, which will give way to the construction of the new project, Ike Richman, Comcast-Spectacor spokesman, said. Taking the Spectrum’s place will be Philly Live!, a dining, entertainment and shopping hub that will feature a variety of year-round attractions that promise to rejuvenate South Philadelphia and the sports complex. Construction is expected to begin in April with Philly Live! expected to open a year later. The development project will create 250 new jobs, Nutter said. “This is about jobs, jobs and more jobs,” he said. The Spectrum seated a capacity crowd of around 18 thousand depending on the event. The $7-million facility was renamed four times by sponsors throughout its us-

age, something that Snider joked about as he blessed the sister facility across the street calling it the “Wells Fargo, or whatever-it‘s-called-now Center.” But it was not just sports fans that enjoyed and shared memories at the Spectrum. A myriad of shows including the circus, professional wrestling, boxing and truck shows drew sellout crowds there. Perhaps most synonymous with the arena besides the sports teams that called it home were the bands that rocked under the Spectrum roof like the Grateful Dead and Springsteen. Each performed at least 50 concerts throughout the decades — by far the most of any artist. “I guess the reason I came down is for the reason everybody else is here. It’s a historic landmark and plus, it’s not everyday you get to see a building go down,” Randy Manilok, a New Jersey resident who attended numerous Springsteen concerts at the Spectrum, said. But the memories will live on for fans, performers and athletes alike. “On behalf of the old Flyer teams whose professional achievements were done in the Spectrum, we will always remember,” Clarke, an ex-Flyers center, said. “God bless the Spectrum.” SPR Comment at www.southphillyreview.com/news.

A Passyunk Square dance company artistic director makes a splash on Philadelphia’s stages and brings her flavor to New York City for a five-show run next week.

By Jess Fuerst Review Contributor

“I

didn’t want to come back,” Nichole Canuso, of Ninth and Federal streets, said of returning to Philadelphia area after attending college in Massachusetts. “I was from here so I didn’t want to come back. I was planning to live in San Francisco and I had a boyfriend out there and that was my plan. “But I fell in love with the dance community.” Indeed her love of dance — and specifically the art she is able to create in her South Philly-headquartered business, Nichole Canuso Dance Co. — is what has kept her in the area all these years. “I’m not necessarily [in South Philly] because my family is. I’ve always felt really happy in this area. The neighborhoods, there is a good amount of space for a good price, I feel, and a lot of great people,” Canuso said.

When thinking about gifts for a loved one this holiday season, new kitchen appliances please people of all ages. All it takes is a few recipes to enjoy them. By Phyllis Stein-Novack Food Columnist

new set of oven mitts and the aforementioned seven-quart round Le Creuset pot (yellow or green).

■ Blender Hollandaise ■ Ingredients:

3 egg yolks 1/4 teaspoon of kosher salt 1 1/2 tablespoons of lemon juice 1 tablespoon of hot water 1 1/2 sticks of unsalted butter, cut into pieces

Note from Phyllis: This is enough hollandaise to sauce any vegetable for four people.

Ingredients:

1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar or lemon juice 2 egg yolks 1/4 teaspoon of freshly ground black or white pepper 1 cup of olive oil

Directions: Place the salt, vinegar or lemon juice, egg yolks, pepper and 2 tablespoons of olive oil in the blender. Mix for a few seconds. Turn the blender to high speed and pour in the remaining olive oil in a thin stream. The mayonnaise will thicken. Makes 1 cup. Note from Phyllis: Recipe can be easily doubled. Feel free to add a bit of Dijon mustard or some chopped fresh herbs, such as tarragon, to the mayonnaise. Marcella Hazan, the Italian Julia Child, believes that any serious cook must master homemade mayonnaise. SPR Comment at www.southphillyreview.com/foodand-drink/features.

Directions: Place the egg yolks, salt, lemon juice and hot water into the blender. Blend until the eggs become thick and sticky. Place the butter in a sauce pan and heat it until it bubbles. Let cool for one minute. Turn the blender back on and add the melted butter in a thin, steady stream. Pour the sauce into a bowl. If you do not plan to use it right away, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for up to one day. Bring the hollandaise to room temperature two hours before serving. Serve in a warm sauce boat. Serves four.

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I december 2, 2010

n an episode of “The Bob Newhart Show,” psychologist Bob Hartley gives his school teacher wife Emily a blender for Christmas. She’s not too happy with this gift. Fast forward 30-odd years and many people — man or woman — would be delighted to receive a shiny, new state-of-the-art stainless steel blender or any other helper in the kitchen. We are a multi-ethnic nation of people who love to cook and bake. If anyone gave me a new piece of All-Clad, a KitchenAid or a seven-quart Le Creuset pot, I would be thrilled with a capital T. It is the season for giving. I believe gifts should not be frivolous. They should be useful and beneficial. I recently strolled through Macy’s Center City home products department on a big sale day and was not surprised to see men and women of all ages in line waiting to pay for their purchases. People were scooping up everything from pots and pans to small electrics. One woman was schlepping a large electric countertop roasting oven while a young couple pondered over a gift for a newly-engaged couple. The future groom’s taste was traditional while the future bride’s taste was contemporary. I wandered among the glassware, serving pieces, kitchenware and everything you need to set up a proper fully-stocked bar and wondered what would be the hot

item this holiday season. I met with George Clark, the home products department sales manager. He was working on the department’s Black Friday sale strategies, which were three days away, but he was gracious to grant me a few minutes of his time. “I would say the double buffet server will be a big item this year,” he said. “The Lolita glasses are so popular, we can’t keep them in stock.” On the day of my visit, the Bella Cucina double buffet server with warming tray was priced at $29.99. It is made of stainless steel and the warming tray can be used as a stand-alone warming tray. The company also manufactures a double slow cooker for $39.99. The Lolita glassware line is perfect for your eccentric relatives who like to wear bright sweaters emblazoned with reindeer, Christmas trees or Mr. and Mrs. Claus. They’re very kitsch. Some are Pilsners with brightly-colored pool balls, some are wine glasses or martini glasses with seasonal themes. I needed a new tablecloth for my kitchen table and found the perfect one. I asked the sales clerk who rang up my purchase what people are buying this time of year. “We sell more KitchenAids and blenders during the holidays than during any other time of year,” she said. My wish list includes wine glasses (Edward broke at least a half dozen within the past year), a KitchenAid (preferably red), glass mixing bowls, cookie sheets, a

Green Room at Hotel du Pont By Phyllis Stein-Novack R e s ta u r a n t R e v i e w e r

n a beautiful colorful afternoon, Edward and I drove to Wilmington to meet cousins Myna and Erv for brunch at the Green Room in the Hotel du Pont and visit the nearby Delaware Art Museum. Erv was told brunch was booked until 1 p.m. We arrived at the appointed hour and noticed the Green Room was almost empty. A party of eight was leaving while two couples were finishing dessert. The Green Room exerts the era of shabby elegance. Dark wood is everywhere, windows are heavily draped and crisp linen sets the stage for delicate Rosenthal china. The price is $38 per person and includes a choice of bloody mary, mimosa, glass of Champagne, coffee or tea. Appetizers and desserts share the buffet table, but you order your entrée from a list of choices. “I’m thinking of eggs Benedict,” I said to Erv. At that point, a middle-aged waiter came bounding over like a playful Labrador and said, “eggs Benedict. I’ve sold lots of them and the short ribs today.” This interruption gave me pause. We ordered our drinks and then visited the buffet. The foods were straight out of the 80s. Brie en croute, cut up cheese and fruit, some sort of tossed salad, Caesar salad, minestrone soup in a big tarnished silver tureen and two dishes which I liked. In-

house smoked salmon sat on a plate with cappers, chopped egg white, chopped egg yolk and chopped sweet red onion. The seafood salad was prepared with shrimp and scallops in a light mayonnaise-like dressing. As we ate our appetizers, Erv’s entrée arrived. The short ribs came with baby carrots, Myna ordered salmon with turnip puree, and my and Edward’s eggs Benedict were cold. The mound of chorizo hash browns looked like canned dog food. There was no eye appeal. The dishes were so cold they were probably sitting around for about half an hour. A new waiter appeared. “I will warm them up,” he said. Edward and I said you cannot warm up eggs Benedict. The three of us discussed the dish. The alleged hollandaise looked like melted Velveeta processed cheese food that had congealed on the plate. We asked if the chef could make a true French omelet. We wanted a simple cheese omelet prepared with Gruyère or Emmenthaler since both cheeses melt easily. About 15 minutes went by and I looked at my lunch. Slim triangles of Gruyère were scattered on top of the thin and puffy omelet. It was not glistening with butter or creamy inside. Some grilled baby vegetables and shoestring hash browns (I suspect they came from a box) were on the

plate. I took a bite and found it lacking on all counts. The person who made our brunch is an intern at the hotel. He is a student, not a chef. We met the young man and asked him why the cheese was not in the omelet. While we waited for the entrées, the new waiter asked us if we wanted more appetizers because the staff was about to break down the appetizer section. This is unheard of in any restaurant let alone a famous one like the Hotel du Pont. Miniature desserts were tasty. Small chocolate mousse cups, whipped strawberry confections, authentic French macaroons, carrot cake, Sacher torte, bread pudding — all classics — were nicely done. As we sipped coffee and tea and dove

into our desserts, the waiter came over again. “Do you want more desserts? We want to break down the dessert buffet.” I’ve been to the Green Room on other occasions. The meals were always superb., but this one was most unpleasant. One-half tip of the toque to the Green Room at Hotel du Pont. SPR

While only one of these cooks can be seen on TV, it doesn’t mean the other’s recipes aren’t equally as delicious. With the spotlight turned off, Lisa presents her 15-Minute Chicken Dinner, which combines spinach, chicken and provolone mixed with some other flavorful ingredients. Even better, the resident of the 3000 block of South 17th Street uses the words “fast” and “easy” to describe her dish. SPR

Lisa’s 15-Minute Chicken Dinner INGREDIENTS:

Remove the pieces of chicken from the skillet — leaving the sauce for later — and place in a pan in single rows. Place it in the oven for about 10 minutes or until chicken is evenly cooked. Add the cooked spinach on top of the chicken, place a piece of provolone on top of the spinach and return to the oven. Let cook until the cheese is melted and take out of oven. In a small cup, combine the cornstarch or flour with s sauce a little thicker. Add this mixture to the skillet with the rest of the sauce and let simmer on medium heat for about three minutes. Take the chicken out of the oven, put on n DIRECTIONS: a plate and top with Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large skillet, combine the shallot with the sauce. the butter, then add the chicken breasts and a small amount of the stock.

Cardella

By Tom Cardella Columnist

Of Jim Morrison and airports

y wife has found out that while she is at work, I have been making frequent trips to the airport. I don’t take a plane; I just go down there and request an intrusive pat-down. It never has a happy ending, but, at my age, I’ll take what I can get. I tried to tell Fran (my wife and erstwhile kidney donor) it is a harmless habit that I have developed since the Transportation Security Administration enacted its new regulations. She asked me to return to my original habit of surfing for porn. In my defense, I believe volunteering for pat-downs is serving the public interest during this period of hysteria. What could be more patriotic than to show my fellow Americans that no matter how intrusive, a pat-down is preferable to a plane being blown up because some guy hid a bomb in his Jockey shorts. Usually I approach the security area, happily doff my shoes and jacket, empty my pockets of coins and keyss and start singing the old Jim Morrison and The Doors’ hit “Touch Me.” Soon the entire crowd is singing with me — “Come on, come on, come on. Now touch me, baby. Can’t you see that I am not afraid? What was that promise that you made?” (That last line is a directed at Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano.) The furor all started when that guy yelled, “don’t touch my junk” on YouTube. I looked at him and figured he ought to be glad anyone would bother to touch his “junk.” A 61-year-old man claimed he was so “humiliated” by the indelicate security procedures that he broke down and cried. This is not a genuine victim, but a man looking to guest on “Oprah.” I wonder if he got as insulted when the government wiretapped phones and e-mails in the name of national security? Right-wing talk show hosts have been crying for two years that Obama is not tough enough on national security, but now they are whining about the new security full-body scans and pat-downs. I have to admit if I had to pat down Rush Limbaugh, I might be tempted to poke and squeeze a little too hard. It has gotten so bad that Sean Hannity will probably go into a rant in a few weeks because he doesn’t like the lights on the White House Christmas tree. On the left, the American Civil Liberties Union also is in a dither over what it deems

“an invasion of privacy.” I like the ACLU. I think it performs an important function protecting our civil liberties, but I think the more important function being served by the TSA is to protect me from getting blown up the next time I fly. I’m funny that way. I weigh the options — some TSA agent checking my full-body scan and wondering how I fathered two kids or increasing the chance I might get blown to bits on my next vacation. It’s a close call, but I’ll take the “intrusive” search. Some of my friends worry their fullbody scan might wind up on the Internet. I don’t know quite how to gently put this, the only place our full-body scan might show up is on Comedy Central. Kim Kardashian you are not. One Republican senator (I forget who because they all sound alike) suggested profiling is the answer. In this way, only darkskinned folks would be asked to go through the full-body scan or pat-down. Since not many of his voters are dark-skinned, the senator figures he has come up with the perfect solution. Unfortunately, our enemies are at least as smart as Republican politicians. They have figured out they cannot only counter the profiling, but exploit it by recruiting homegrown terrorists who look like Justin Bieber or Miley Cyrus. It hurts just as much to be blown up by a white dude with blue eyes as it does an Arab. Sarah Palin already has come out against the new TSA security procedures, citing them as more evidence of big government run amok. I have never been sure just what it means to run amok. I’ve seen people run fast or run slow, but I have never seen them run amok. I have only seen big government run so slowly it never seems to move at all. Maybe it would be nice to see government run amok for a change. Of course, Palin’s Alaska doesn’t worry too much about terrorists blowing up planes. Alaskans are too busy crashing their own small planes into mountains and stuff at an alarming rate. The solution to avoid patdowns and scans might be to settle in Wasilla where you can just stay home and peer at Russia through your kitchen window. A wise man said it’s not really the TSA or their new security pat-downs that is upsetting folks. He claims folks are really upset at the airlines who nickel and dime you for your luggage and force you to sit on the tarmac for hours in cramped seats without the benefit of a cup of water. And he has a point. We have finally reached the point where the Broad Street subway is actually more comfortable than flying, and it is safer too. Nobody pokes and prods you on the subway either, unless it’s rush hour and then it has nothing to do with protecting you from terrorists. If only SEPTA could take us to Italy.

Chering the spotlight

Tess (Cher), right, The Burlesque Lounge owner, confides in Sean (Stanley Tucci) as she struggles to keep the L.A. lounge alive.

By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

t seems like everyone, even those who’d line up around the corner for tickets, can’t help but snicker at “Burlesque,” a sparkling popcorn musical, emphasis on the pop and the corn. It’s a tacky indulgence no matter how it’s sliced. But the joke’s on anyone who lets that cripple the movie’s mammoth entertainment value. For pure, leave-your-cares-at-the-door escapism, it’s hard to beat a rhinestoned romp that takes the most diverting parts of “Cabaret,” “Coyote Ugly,” “The Devil Wears Prada” and “Chicago” and serves them up in a dreamlike milieu that looks like it was shot through a shotglass. Amidst the smoke and shimmer are stock characters direct from the Follow Your Dreams factory, including the gay confidant (Stanley Tucci), the peripheral weirdo (Alan Cumming) the rival (Kristen Bell), the man candy (Cam Gigandet) and the rival man candy (Eric Dane). But the spotlight need only be shined on the thickskinned queen bee and the wide-eyed ingénue, since they’re played by Cher, in her big film comeback, and Christina Aguilera, in her film debut. Set in an L.A. club owned by Cher’s Tess and turned upside-down by Aguilera’s Ali, “Burlesque” basically exists to showcase the grandiose talents of the pop divas, and that proves to be enough. First-time director Steve Antin, who also wrote the script, has no ambition to toss in clever plot turns, offer stimulating dialogue or even properly frame his camera subjects, but, man, does he make the most of Aguilera’s near-peerless vocals and Cher’s singular, ageless visage. The former, who co-wrote the showstoppers

she belts from her gut, won’t be counted among the many singers whose leaps to film become career blemishes. She’s above-par and as fresh-faced as ever. The latter, her contribution more a towering presence than a performance, remains a pillar of uncanny watchability. Preposterously catered to heightening its heroine’s experience, and thus yours, “Burlesque” leaves no bugle bead unshaken in the pursuit of fun. At its best, it keeps your eyes and thoughts hooked on the big show, as well it should.

Burlesque PG-13 Three reels out of four Now playing in area theaters

Recommended Rental Inception PG-13 Available Tuesday Popular cinema doesn’t get much denser, smarter or loftier than “Inception,” Christopher Nolan’s brilliant dream-invasion thriller, which in its multi-tiered complexities reflects the “Dark Knight” mastermind’s awesome filmmaking style. Leonardo DiCaprio leads one of the year’s best ensembles as a “subconscious security” expert whose loose grip on reality is palpable, to say the least.

continued from page 14 with live video feeds and obscured dancers inside — the performer took part in a joint venture with husband and sometimes-collaborator Michael Kiley, 33. The husbandand-wife pair were noticed by a New York City-based venue that asked the group to head up the turnpike for a five-show run at Here Arts Center Dec. 9 to 11. “[Fellow local Live Arts artist] Thaddeus Phillips did an ‘Off the Grid’ festival and had a fully solar-powered venue,” the 37-year-old said of the stage that hosted the performance featuring music by Kiley’s band, The Mural and the Mint, and choreography by Canuso. “I ended up making dance for the full evening. We took this collaboration and filled it out.” What will be on display next week is music from the new album released this week by The Mural and the Mint and fresh movements from Canuso. The show shares its name with the band’s just-released album, “As the Eyes of the Seahorse.” “We are trying to choreograph the evening more cohesively,” Canuso said. “The flow of the evening is thought through both sonically and visually and some transition moments. And between songs,

I would actually be groundwork for her signature style, which backstage at the Painted Bride and hearing she described as “the simple thing to say dancers talk about their lives,” Canuso, is modern dance. There is a theatrical who took the bus in from attending high throughline and an abstract sensibility and school in Upper Darby to study dance in delight for the visual art.” Returning home to Lansdowne over school Center City, said. “The South Street Dance Co. was big at the time and I knew some breaks, Canuso developed relationships with local dance companies and realized the people in that company.” Immersed in the culture, Canuso maintains Philadelphia scene would be a best-fit. Upon dance was not something that neither came graduation, she returned to her hometown to her in a moment of inspiration nor was and began work with two resident troupes. “Karen Bamonte was fast-paced, highforced upon her by exposure.

ny. It had been around for a long time. And Headlong [1170 S. Broad St.] was a new, vibrant company that was pushing dance in new directions. It was improv, theatric and humorous. It was interesting to be in both companies at the same time,” Canuso said. Fast forward to 1999 and the self-assured dancer began working in a fiveperson collaborative entitled, Moxie. Five years after its founding, members began to move toward different projects, and when the nonprofit approval they had applied for came through, Canuso took advantage and founded her own company in 2004. Since then, she has flourished both on the local level and further, with her upcoming New York run a welcome addition to the mix. However, Canuso and her company remain a unique vision and a South Philadelphia mainstay. “I lead a very collective project, but I’m the consistent thread from project to project,” the mother of Simon, a kindergartner at Philadelphia Performing Arts Charter School, 2600 S. Broad St., said. “It springs from my desire and my direction. I want to take the company as a whole, then the project is created with those people. The general trajectory is driven by my vision, but then it is driven by the group.” SPR Comment at news/lifestyles.

Mercy Starts With Me

“ I trust the care of my family to Mercy! ” As CEO of one of the largest home care organizations in the five-county Philadelphia region, I understand how hard it can be to find an in-home healthcare provider you can trust. I also know you can trust Mercy...I do! For many years my mother lived with several chronic illnesses that threatened her ability to stay independent at home. Mercy’s dedicated team of nurses and therapists supported my family by ensuring her safety, managing her care and improving her overall quality of life. At Mercy Home Health, we believe the healing process starts in the comfort of home... where support is needed most. I trust the care of my family to Mercy...so should YOU!

The golden DeFelice

After 42 years at a Passyunk Square school, a renowned teacher and coach is retiring. By Joseph Myers r e v i e w s ta f f w r i t e r

staff photos by greg bezanis

“I received both as a young man, and I came to know what I wanted to do in life,” DeFelice said. “Discipline and punishment are two words that are missing from our society.” Their lack leaves children who covet direction and structure, DeFelice said. He became a teacher to provide ample supplies of both. “I enjoy being with young people. I feel fortunate to have had an opportunity to spend so much time in education,” he said. He also applauds every soul willing to be a teacher. To punctuate his admiration, he discussed talks he often has with parents. “I ask them how many kids they have and if they ever take them to the zoo. When they say they have two or three and that they do go, I ask them how they feel when they are done. “They tell me, ‘Oh, I’m exhausted.’ Well, teachers work with 32 students every 47 minutes. They have to be parents every day,” he said. Father to three, DeFelice and wife Grace

reside in Glen Mills. “I’ve known and loved her since we were 15,”he said. Reaching maturity at West Catholic and then Temple, DeFelice exhibited his athletic panache in baseball and football. “Baseball was my better sport,” he said, revealing that the Cincinnati Reds had interest in signing him to a minor league contract as a catcher. One of the problems with joining the Ohio-based team was that future Hall of Famer Johnny Bench was about to join the squad. Bench would lead The Big Red Machine to World Series victories in’ 75 and ’76. “I wasn’t ready for that opportunity, but I have no regrets,” the 2005 Public League Football Coach of the Year said. Settling into his life at Bok proved easy for DeFelice, who holds that educating and coaching revolve around corralling a young person’s interest. “I set high standards for myself, my students and my players. I am al-

COMING OF AGE in the 1960s guided DeFelice to his career. He and his family had moved to West Philadelphia when he was 4 and his new area introduced him to two great friends, discipline and punishment.

With other symbols of his teams’ success behind him, Bok head football coach Tom DeFelice holds a plaque honoring his last squad’s championshipcaliber play.

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I december 2, 2010

umbers seem to encapsulate Tom DeFelice. The 64-year-old head football coach at Bok Technical High School, 1901 S. Ninth St., has, with his baseball background included, given his insights to young men for 52 seasons. In 18 seasons leading the Wildcats’ varsity football program, he amassed 129 victories, including 43 straight Public League regular season triumphs — a streak that came to end in a Sept. 18 loss to Imhotep Charter; 14 winning campaigns; 13 regular season division titles; and nine playoff victories. Impressive indeed, those figures cannot top four, the number of grandchildren the former Bella Vista resident will have by next year. His increasing descendants have started DeFelice’s retirement countdown, which will hit zero in June when he will end his professional affiliation with the Passyunk Square institution. “My family and I had been entertaining the idea for a couple years. My decision has nothing to do with a decrease in my passion for coaching or educating,” DeFelice said of his tenure, which has included a stint as the school’s head of health and physical education. “It is also not about winning or losing.” Losses were rarities under DeFelice, who led the junior varsity team until 1993, when he took over for Charlie Guida. His varsity squads suffered just 50 setbacks, with one tie, in 180 games and only eight over the last five seasons. “Success comes from within,” DeFelice said of his sideline success. “When I came here, Bok was a laughingstock.” The varsity players failed to register a winning season from 1954 through ’79. Under DeFelice, however, they finished with four losing seasons but only one in the last 13 years. “We began turning the barrel as a program in 1980,” he noted. “In my time as head coach, I took great joy in looking at raw ability and molding it.”

ways trying to maintain a positive tone of professionalism,”the now retired coach said. When handling his gridiron troops, DeFelice looks for ways to channel their skills. “I think all kids come to school with an equal dose of potential. We always evaluate players with that in mind.” He encourages athletes to see themselves as entertainers bent on visualizing perfect execution of plays. He worries, however, that not enough student-athletes see sports as means for being competitive and crafting friendships. “Sports contests are collections of thoughts, chess games, so to speak, but they should also be opportunities for developing camaraderie and finding direction,”he said. In his retirement, DeFelice hopes to become a voice for inner-city children who receive negative influences. He has considered the Phillies and Eagles as aides in starting a community outreach program. As he has aged, DeFelice has realized patience is a must in forming new thoughts and behaviors. He sums up his beliefs with the mantra “Change is a process, not an event.” In October, he notified his players of the change next season will bring. The announcement, it seems, inspired the Wildcats, who posted an 8-3 record that included three shutout wins. They advanced to the District 12 Class AA state subregional final Nov. 20, where, perhaps fittingly, they met West Catholic for the third straight year. Their 34-6 loss left the coach reflective. “I have such pride in my guys,” DeFelice, who plans to attend games next season, said. As for his most memorable win, he chose a ’99 Public League semifinal victory over Frankford. The 30-22 triumph gave the team a spot in the championship game, which it dropped to Germantown. “That Frankford win brought new life to the school,” he said beaming. As for devoting two-thirds of his life to Bok, DeFelice seeks simple rewards. “For my players and students, I hope I have left an imprint on their hearts.” SPR
