wanted them to add this ‘South Philadelphia,’” Andrew Lukov, the principal of Southwark School, 1835 S. Ninth St., said when holding open a mock-up of the new and improved welcome signage that now greets students and parents at the entrance of the K-8 building in East Passyunk Crossing. “Because we have so much pride in being in this neighborhood.” His building, which is now officially more than 100 years old, was in need of some help, and he found it in Digitas Health LifeBrands — a Philadelphia-based health care communications agency

with offices in Philly, New York, San Francisco and London. Personnel came in on, Aug. 15 and gave Southwark an instant and thorough facelift. More than 300 employees volunteered as part of the company’s annual Community Service Day to paint hallways, install murals, clean classrooms and revitalize a building that, just this week, opened its doors for a new school year. “Now I know how they built the pyramids,” Lukov joked. “If you’re organized, you can get so much done in such a short amount of time – I essentially got out of the way. They really knew what they were doing.” The response has been overwhelmingly positive, from staff and community members alike. “Oh, my God, it is beautiful and I can’t even ex-

Vivid visions of Ventnor

To the Editor: I so enjoyed Ms. Novack’s article about her memories of Ventnor, N.J. (“Childhood memories of the Jersey Shore,” Aug. 21). I too had a home on Hillside Avenue in Ventnor. When I was 15, my grandparents purchased a huge five-bedroom home for their children and 13 grandchildren. After our grandparents died, my family kept the big house going, and my husband and I purchased our own home on Hillside Avenue. Tragically one night during a huge snowstorm, my grandparent’s house burned to the ground as the firefighters, hampered by the snowdrifts, tried unsuccessfully to get to it. Ms. Novack may remember the fire. No one was hurt that night. Although we lost our grandparents’ wonderful house, we have

never lost the memories. When I was a child, my grandmother often took me to stroll on the Atlantic City Boardwalk. No jeans or T-shirts — she dressed me in pretty dresses and knitted shawls. I loved the Traymore, Shelburne and magical lit-up fountain. I was thrilled to see the diving horse on the Steel Pier, and I saw Ricky Nelson perform in person. I loved the Italian Village on Million Dollar Pier. Summers were magical. My family loved to order giant corned beef sandwiches from Lou’s followed by fantastic sundaes and banana splits at Lamberts. My father loved Hackney’s and treated everyone for his birthday. I still go to The White House when visiting Atlantic City, although my first love is Sacco O’

Subs in Ventnor. My uncles often went crabbing and in those days, when the sea was full of crabs they always came home with a bushel of fresh ones that my grandmother would cook with spaghetti for the entire family. I saw “Psycho” at the Ventnor movie theater right down the street. Who can forget the homemade candy store at Hillside and Ventnor avenues? The Knife and Fork Inn was our favorite restaurant. I cannot tell you how much I appreciated this article. I felt like I could have written it myself. Apparently Phyllis, we walked in the same footsteps down the shore. Due to a divorce, I no longer go to Ventnor and miss it terribly. Thank you so much for the opportunity to relive my memories.

A female suffered two gunshot wounds from a likely domestic argument Monday. ■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

P

olice are looking for the shooter of the 32-year-old victim, whose body they found on the floor of a residence within Courtyard Apartments at Riverview, 1021 S. Fourth St., just after 10 p.m. They arranged for her transport to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, where, as of press time, officials had her listed in critical condition for shots to her face and left arm, the Police Public Affairs Unit said. Inside the Queen Village location, authorities saw signs of a violent struggle, including overturned televisions and smashed furniture, but noticed no signs of forced entry. Police stated they believe the incident resulted from a domestic dispute with her 32-year-old mate, and they have deemed him a person of interest, having collected six spent shell casings and a semi-automatic pistol. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Burglarized of peace A woman interrupted an intruder in her Point Breeze home Monday, leading him to leave minus any possessions.

She saw a man when looking into the room and picked up her

Police are seeking three males for robbing a deliveryman in Grays Ferry Sunday. At 10:35 p.m., the employee of Southside Pizza, 917 S. 20th St., was delivering food to the 1600 block of South Napa Street when he noticed that the intended destination appeared unoccupied, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. He called the number on the slip and learned a male would be there immediately. As he waited in front of the location, three unknown figures approached him, with the first two wielding handguns, Tolliver said. They demanded that he hand over his money and watch, with their accomplice taking the food. The first two offenders fled on foot, last seen heading northbound on Napa Street, then eastbound on Fernon Street. The food thief fled southbound on Napa Street toward Morris Street. The victim, who did not sustain any injuries, parted with $129 and a silver Fossil chronograph watch. He described the first individual as black, 18 years old, 5-foot7, 165 pounds, cleanshaven; having a thin build, a dark complexion and short black hair; wearing a black short sleeve T-shirt, dark gray jeans and sneakers; and carrying a small gray semi-automatic handgun; the second as black, 19 to 20 years old, 5-foot8, 165 pounds, cleanshaven; having a thin build, a dark complexion and short black hair; wearing a gray short sleeve T-shirt, blue jeans and sneakers; and possessing a small black semi-automatic handgun; and the third as black, 21 to 22 years old, 5-foot-9, 180 pounds cleanshaven; having a heavy build and a dark complexion; and wearing a dark gray hoodie and blue jeans. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Stomaching the news A man suffered a gunshot wound to his stomach in Dickinson Square West Tuesday.


At 10:43 p.m., police received multiple person-with-a-gun radio calls originating in the area of the 500 block of McClellan Street and learned of a injured male on the 400 block of Sigel Street, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. They found the figure, who told them someone had shot him, with a towel to his stomach and had him transported to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. Interviewing him at the location, they learned he had been talking with a friend on the 500 block of McClellan Street when he heard a yell and then gunshots, Tolliver said. He began running eastbound on McClellan Street before realizing he had suffered a wound. He then banged on a door on the 400 block of McClellan Street for help. He described the shooter as a black male with a dark complexion and wearing all black clothes, a black hoodie and a black hat. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

It’s a conspiracy

Cab conundrum A taxicab passenger robbed his driver in

Marconi Saturday. The motorist picked up the offender at Broad Street and Snyder Avenue at 4:30 a.m. and received instruction to take him to the 1500 block of Ritner Street, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. When they arrived, the rider asked for the driver to go to the middle of the block and asked for change for a $50. As the operator reached in his front breast pocket to honor the request, the man placed his right hand in the rear windshield of the cab and said “I have a gun. Don’t talk too much and give me the money,” Tolliver said. The victim gave him $100 before the thief left the ride and fled, last seen heading eastbound on Ritner Street toward Broad Street. He described the figure as white, in his late 20s to early 30s, 5-foot7 to 5-foot-10 and cleanshaven; having a thin build, close haircut and a skinny face; and wearing a white T-shirt. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Money grabbers Two men teamed up to strike and rob another male in Lower Moyamensing Tuesday. At 1:21 a.m., the complainant reported he pulled up to Lukoil, 2101 S. 11th St., for gas and that as he started to walk across the parking lot to pay the attendant, two unknown figures approached him from behind, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. One punched him in the face, while his partner grabbed cash from his hand. The men pulled the victim to the side of the building and asked him what else he had. He tried to fight back and delivered a face punch to one of the aggressors, but they escaped by fleeing on foot across Snyder Avenue toward McKean Street, Tolliver said. The complainant did not seek immediate medical treatment for an injury to the right side of his face and neck and described the first attacker as black, 5-foot-7, 170 pounds; and wearing a black hoodie and gray pants; and the second as black, 5-foot-10, 180 pounds; and wearing a gray hoodie. Authorities said Lukoil captured the matter on its video surveillance system. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com /forms.

Make the most of life with Allstate Life insurance. Let me help explain all that life insurance can do for you.

Many Americans don’t realize that some types of life insurance can provide “living” benefits as well. If you’re diagnosed with a chronic or terminal illness you may be able to receive a partial death benefit payout* to spend on long-term treatment or care. Call me today to find out how.

*The Accelerated Death Benefit may or not qualify for a favorable tax treatment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. This depends on factors such as your life expectancy at the time benefits are accelerated or whether you use the benefits to pay for required qualified long-term expenses. If the Accelerated Death Benefit qualifies the Benefit will not be subject to federal income taxation. Tax laws relating to the Accelerated Death Benefits are complex. You should consult with a tax advisor about how you can receive the Accelerated Death Benefit excludable from income under federal law. In addition, receipt of the Accelerated Death Benefit may affect your family’s eligibility for public assistance programs such as medical assistance (Medicaid), Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AGDC), supplementary social security income (SSI) and drug assistance programs. You should consult with social service agencies concerning how receipt of such payment will affect eligibility for public assistance. See rider for terms, conditions, and restrictions. Subject to state specific terms and availability. Administrative expense charged if benefit is exercised. Availability from a particular company varies by product. Subject to availability and qualifications. Life insurance issued by Allstate Life Insurance Company, Northbrook, IL, and Lincoln Benefit Life Company, Lincoln, NE.

A man who conspired with a Philadelphia police officer to steal drugs in Lower Moyamensing received a 10-month sentence two weeks ago. According to U.S. Attorney spokeswoman Patty Hartman, the charging document stated that Robert Nagy united with an unnamed cop “to extort drugs and/or money from drug sellers.” It explains that in May 2012, the now-26-year-old arranged to buy Oxycontin from a distributor known as “L.C.” at 12th and Fitzgerald streets. Once the initialed figure arrived, the uniformed officer pulled up in his police car and claimed to have seen a drug transaction, though none had occurred. The law enforcement worker, identified in the explanation as “C.S.,” prompted the supposed dealer to retrieve the bag of pills that the latter had dropped to the ground and pretended to arrest Nagy, driving off with him in his automobile. In February, authorities charged Nagy by “criminal information,” a process indicating that he would likely plead guilty, which he did in April on a conspiracy to commit extortion count. For cooperating with the government, Nagy, who could have faced 15 to 21 months in jail, received the reduced sentence, with the sentencing document ordering him to continue to interact with federal officials.

Fast food, sluggish wages Workers from area franchises marched on Broad Street to protest unfair pay and practices. ■ By Bill Chenevert R e v i e w S ta f f W r i t e r

A

t about noon on Sept. 4, a few hundred Philadelphians marched down North Broad Street from a McDonald’s on Girard Avenue to another franchise at Broad and Arch streets, just north of City Hall. Past the burgeoning North Broad dining district, past a Dunkin Donuts, the School District of Philadelphia headquarters and Benjamin Franklin High School, they marched and shouted for a fairer pay wage and action from their employers to improve their lives. Workers from McDonald’s, Dunkin’ Donuts, Burger King, Kentucky Fried Chicken and Popeye’s marched with signs and received support from Philadelphia City Councilman-at-Large W. WIlson Goode, Jr., Pastor Larry Patrick, the Philadelphia chapter of a national movement called 15 Now, as well as representatives from PA Working Families and the Philadelphia Unemployment Project. “Philadelphia will be one of over 150 cities on strike across the country. Workers will be escalating their fight with a dramatic action at Broad and Arch following a rally with speaker and supporters” reads the press release from Fight for Philly, “a grassroots organization fighting for good schools, good jobs, a fair economy, and a city that works for all of us.” What started in New York City in 2012, with 200 fastfood workers demanding $15 an hour and the right to form a union without fear of recourse, has spread throughout the country. Philadelphia joined the fight last spring, and, last week, about a dozen workers were arrested in an act of civil disobedience. “This is not a sudden thing. This has been building for over the last couple of years. Pay has really stagnated for people, especially at the lower end, for really the last 30 years or so,” Mike Leeds, the Director of graduate studies in Temple University’s economics department and a professor of labor economics, said. “On the one hand, the people at the top are not being honest,” he added, but Leeds stressed that spending patterns reinforce existent patterns. “The fault is in ourselves. That we are telling these people ‘Yeah, we want the low prices of a McDonald’s or a Walmart, but we’re upset when the workers are mistreated, and we’re upset when you have low pay’ — you can’t have both,” he contended. The Pennsylvania minimum wage is $7.25, $2.83 for tipped employees who make more than $30 a month in tips (the employer has to compensate if the tips and the $2.83 per hour do not combine to reach a minimum wage). Pennsylvania is the only state in the mid-Atlantic not to have raised the minimum wage by some margin. Five states have raised it to $8.50 or more; New Jersey’s minimum wage sits at $8.25; Delaware $7.75; New York is at $8; and West Virginia’s tipped wage is at $5.80 per hour. Many states’ minimum and tipped wages match. It’s not enough. Working families struggle to provide their

children with adequate child and health care. Employees are strategically scheduled to avoid breaks and overtime; they can’t afford to take a sick day. “Our managers talk to us like crap,” Shymara Jones, a 21-year-old mother of a 1-year-old son, who worked at the Popeye’s, 800 S. Broad St., for five years before she found a better job at the Philadelphia International Airport pushing wheelchairs, said. “After I’ve been working there for five years, nothing got better. All it did was get worse.” The Newbold resident was one of the disobedient and arrested. “There were eleven of us that didn’t move, so they went one by one and asked us to move. When we didn’t move they told us we were under arrest,” she said, noting that the arresting officers were protest police and civil themselves. “They’re one of the biggest corporations in the world; they’re extremely profitable,” John Doddes, the director of the Philadelphia Unemployment Project and a Sept. 4 rally speaker, said. “It’s a question of how much they can exploit from people who are in fairly desperate circumstances, so the more workers that stand up, the less they’re gonna get away with.” Workers talked about how hard it is to make a living, and Doddes requested a moment of silence for 32-year-old Maria Fernandes, a Newark, N.J. resident who died from carbon monoxide just weeks ago after napping between two of her four jobs. Kati Sipp, the director of PA Working Families, was in attendance, too, and is hopeful that change is in the air. “It feels like there’s a lot of potential to change right now,” she said, and pointed towards Starbucks’ recent agreement to alter its scheduling practices. A computerized system, it allowed the company to schedule employees for maximum profit with as little humanity as possible.

“You can’t have a second job if you don’t know what your schedule is going to be like a week in advance,” Sipp said of a notion she’s familiar with. “As somebody who is a working parent, I know that I need predictability for if I can pick my kid up after school or if someone’s going to feed my kid at night if I’m at work.” Sipp noted that, in Pennsylvania, it’s not lawful to raise a City wage above the state minimum wage, an archaic problem. “Philly has a higher cost of living” than, say, rural Western Pennsylvania, Sipp said. She’s not unrealistic, though. “It would be much easier to get by on $15 per hour, [but] I think it’s unlikely that the state’s going to double the minimum wage,” she said.

NEW LOOK continued from page 1 plain it,” Johanna Bogdan, a Fishtown resident and nineyear veteran as a counselor at the school, said. “I feel like it totally energizes the building, and it gives a new pride to the building. Your environment can change your whole attitude about the place, and it’s gonna make a big difference, I feel.” At a time when building administrators and educators are improvising to bridge resource gaps that plague the School District of Philadelphia, it seems pretty clear that the building would’ve gone on in its now-former state indefinitely if Digitas hadn’t stepped in. “The interior didn’t look like a school,” Lukov said, joking that, in its former state, it would’ve been a school to take students on a field trip to show them what schools looked like 100 years ago. Now, though, “it feels like a school and people in the community were so excited about it; our teachers are so excited about it, it’s wonderful.” Lukov admitted that when the work started to progress in the building, he got a little choked up. “We have some bright, cheerful colors in the building now, and when they were putting up the murals, I got very emotional. I had to leave the building for an hour to compose myself and get something to eat — it was almost too much.” Digitas Health LifeBrands, with a small army of design and art experts in its fold, was well-prepared to install at least seven murals throughout the building and outside of it, revamp the school’s logo, paint most of the interior hallways, touch up elements of the gymnasium and art classroom and revitalize a small garden. “I think part of our goal is for it to look nice for the students, the staff and the parents, but hopefully, it also inspires creativity for students who have an interest in art,” Alaina Megill, a Human Resources manager at Digitas, said. “We are a creative advertising agency, we have a lot of designers and art directors and creative directors, so it’s an opportunity to showcase their creativity. Hopefully, students will see these murals, and it will inspire their own creativity in whatever direction they want to go into.” IN ITS SIXTH year now, Digitas has brightened up a handful of other South Philly buildings, as well: Marconi’s F.

Eighth St.; West Passyunk’s Stephen Girard Elementary, 1800 Snyder Ave.; and Northeast Philadelphia’s Solis-Cohen Elementary. It started when a Digitas employee had a contact within the School District and reached out to ask, in Megill’s words, “We’re here to help – what can we do for your school?” So when they were hunting for their next partnership, they put feelers out to past projects, and a MegillLukov e-mail exchange began in May. “I always try to be out there to get things for my building and network with folks. We needed a lot in terms of the building,” Lukov said in his office with one weekend between him and the first day of school. “When Digitas contacted me, I was so excited and I said ‘Please, please, please – please pick us.’ The building has to have a need as well as be able to house upwards of 300 volunteers, and we fit that bill.” After approximately 40 phone calls and nearly 100 emails over the course of four months, and Lukov and his staff are ready for a great, bright new year.

It just looks great,” Nesmith added. The outdoor space is a recreational expanse that Lukov hopes will soon be converted into more than just a concrete slab — he’s working with the Community Design Collective to install play spaces and equipment down the line. But in the meantime, they got a map of the world, four-square courts, a “welcome” mural on the ground, a soccer activity wall and they even painted the curb along its rear boundary to match the school’s rusting gates. It’s projects and stories like these that make the otherwise bleak Philadelphia Public School landscape not look so hopeless, something that’s not lost on Digitas’ Megill. “Part of our goal is to let students know that people do want to go in and help and do good,” she said. “You don’t hear a lot of great things about the School District, so it’s just seeing that people really want to help and that people are invested in them.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Bill Chenevert at bchenevert@southphillyreview.com or ext. 117.

A Marconi stylist will mark her 10th year of supporting cancer and HIV/AIDS research. ■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

F

ollowing through with altruistic aspirations can prove a tough task because of copious commitments or fervent fears that one’s efforts will not succeed. Nancy Melchiore, however, sees practicing selflessness as a worthwhile communal and national cause and will give evidence of her essence Sunday when welcoming patrons at Headhunters Hair Design, 1718 E. Passyunk Ave. “I always want to try to help whoever I can, and, in this case, I don’t think it’s asking too much to give one day of my time,” the proprietor of the East Passyunk Crossing establishment said of its involvement in HopeCuts, an endeavor that sees salons offering reduced costs for haircuts, makeovers and manicures, with generated funds supporting cancer and HIV/AIDS research. “So many people say they want to help others with their needs, but so few actually do anything. I feel happy to be able to assist such a campaign.” The resident of the 2900 block of South 16th Street is celebrating her 10th event for HopeCuts, which, as the nation’s largest beauty industry fundraiser, strengthens the mission of the California-headquartered City of Hope Medical Center and Beckman Research Institute. From PHOTO BY RICHARD BARNES


LIFESTYLES noon until 3 p.m., she and likely six employees will improve clients’ looks while benefiting strangers’ hopes. Regardless of her familiarity with the individuals whose lives she could help to save, Melchiore appreciates having an occasion to diminish the dominion of the aforementioned diseases, especially cancer. “It affects everyone somehow,” the Marconi inhabitant, who last week marked the second anniversary of her ex-husband Rick’s death from lung cancer, said. “It’s becoming more pertinent to our lives to get a grasp on what we can do.” Having learned through neighboring salons of the charitable chance to promote cures, Melchiore experienced an immediate interest in joining the mission and noted that her workers have responded so favorably to their participation that they even donated last year’s tips to City of Hope, through whom a Headhunters-situated card explains that one in three women will suffer from cancer in her lifetime. “You got to be tough,” the businesswoman, who has also lost a friend to brain cancer and has styled many cancer-stricken customers, said of handling the emotions surrounding parting with loved ones and learning of the plight of others. “You just have to go on and hope that you can make

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

a difference. It amazes me that we’ve done this for a decade. I’m committed to continuing our involvement.” Since personal tragedy has touched her and intensified her regard for HopeCuts, Melchiore knows that one person’s pain can serve as an entire country’s motivation to enact change, which she sees as a product of her affinity for Winston Churchill’s dictum “Never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never - in nothing, great or small, large or petty - never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense.” “This is my community and I want to help it out,” she said. “It definitely beats doing nothing and being regretful.” MELCHIORE HAS NEVER needed to worry about having drive. A native of Roxborough, she developed her interest in the beauty industry as a high school student and eventually established Cheekers for Hair, formerly East Passyunk Avenue and Dickinson Street. “It was a great era in which to begin my journey,” she said of how the 1980s helped to usher in a sense of liberation with regards to creative ideas and possibilities. “I liked adapting to the changes within the field because I felt I could do more.” Eager to excel, the scissors wizard

gained immense knowledge through Vidal Sassoon at his eponymous San Franciscobased academy and has furthered her focus through Wella, Redken and Matrix classes in New York City. Confident in her talent as a worker and a manager, she “took a shot” 12 years ago in purchasing Headhunters, a multiple South Philly Review Readers’ Choice Awards winner. “It’s a fantastic place where we have so much fun in helping people to look their best,” the owner said of the spot. “I love being here because there’s never a dull moment.” As with her shop-based existence, Melchiore always keeps active and mindful of her duties to herself, including her health, which she maintains with daily walks at Marconi Plaza, 2700 S. Broad St., and her beloved South Philly community. “I always saw South Philly as such a lively place,” she said of reflecting on treks to the expanse to fraternize with friends. “I wanted to be here to get a better sense of that.” Her tenure has included becoming an advocate and assistant for fashion show endeavors through Methodist Hospital, 2301 S. Broad St., and enjoying a nearly decade-long stint as a Board of Directors presence for the East Passyunk Avenue

Business Improvement District. The latter has helped her to become more aware of the thriving stretch’s identity and has encouraged her to be even more grateful for her lot in life. “I feel fortunate not only to have this salon but also to be around such great people,” Melchiore said. “There’s positivity everywhere.” Her own breed of productive energy figures to foster three hours of revelry Sunday, as she and her hires prove that tiny sacrifices can yield enormous rewards. “We’re excited to interact with people who want to support a necessary project,” she said of her admiration for City of Hope, through whom Headhunters is also offering gift baskets from raffle drawings. “There’s so much at stake.” Melchiore aims to become even more involved with the environs, finding apathy synonymous with personal and community decline. “Thinking back to my high school days, I can recall thinking being a stylist was all I ever wanted to be,” she said. “I’ve certainly met wonderful people, and now we’re working together to be proactive.” SPR Contact Managing Editor Joseph Myers at jmyers@southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

Did Tony Soprano die or what?

I

know there are many important issues we could discuss today. For example, today is the anniversary of the horrific 2001 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center. I came across a website that tries to connect famous events that happened throughout the ages with the terrorist attack. Frankly, I think the idea of FDR’s dedicating the construction of the Hoover Dam on September 11, 1936 with the al-Qaida attack is just a wee bit tenuous. I do think it’s likely that a poll of our young people on the significance of this date might bring the answer the birthday of the singer Ludacris, who was born in 1977. You might want to have a chat with your teenager if he or she gives you that answer. I hope you will forgive me if I leave it to the more serious media like People Magazine to put 9/11 in perspective. There is another burning question that has surfaced lately — did Tony Soprano die in the last episode of “The Sopranos”? I know it’s been awhile since that infamous fade-toblack series finale, but the more mature among us are still worried about what happened to Tony. Sadly, James Gandolfini, who played Tony Soprano, has since passed away, so we can’t get his opinion. The creator of the series, David Chase, has said that whether Tony Soprano died is beside the point. I have a lot of respect for Mr. Chase, but when you put in seven years of watching a series, whether the main actor gets shot in that diner or just winds up ordering a large slice of cherry pie is very much the point. Bear with me here. I don’t think this discussion is a waste of time because after all, we have to find something to do while our president figures out his strategy for dealing with ISIS. I appreciate Barack Obama’s candor in telling us he doesn’t as of yet have a strategy for dealing with ISIS, but this is hardly the answer one wants to hear from your president. It’s bad enough General Manager Ruben Amaro keeps telling us he also doesn’t know what to do about the direction of the Phillies. We don’t want Obama channeling his inner Amaro. Incidentally, ISIS stands for Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. You really have to have a

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

lot of chutzpah to call yourself ISIS when you don’t represent either country, but it’s rather your goal. It’s as if Ted Cruz went around calling himself the president of the United States when the election is two years away. I’ll tell you how bad ISIS is; al-Qaida thinks they’re crazy. ISIS makes Syria’s dictator Bashar al-Assad look less like the thug he is and more like a stern version of Margaret Thatcher. Anyway, I digress from the importance of the task at hand, figuring out the fate of Tony Soprano. It is possible that the scene showing Meadow parking the car has some existential meaning, but I think it was just thrown in to show that by parking the car, Meadow proves she’s not just a pretty face. A large part of Tony’s ultimate fate depends upon whether the guy who comes into the diner is a hit man or merely a salesman trying to sell Tony some crew socks (note the bulge in the guy’s jacket could have been the crew socks). If the guy intends to whack Tony, that doesn’t necessarily mean he doesn’t also intend to sell crew socks to Carmela afterward. The guy could be a hit man with a side job. Let me confess to my bias. If Tony is shot in the diner, it spoils one of my only insights during the 50 years that I’ve been writing for this newspaper. In a column some years ago, I posed the theory that if mob guys stopped going to Italian restaurants, they might avoid getting whacked. None of them ever got killed ordering General Tso’s chicken in a Chinese restaurant as far as I know, although I defer to writer George Anastasia on that subject. If Tony gets shot in the diner, what happens to my theory? A little discussion on why Tony would take his family to a diner is in order, I believe. Tony dines on chicken milano in Artie’s posh restaurant when he’s with the boys, but takes his own family to a freakin’ diner? What’s up with that? Another thing. Bruce Springsteen writes all these great songs about Jersey, and he ignores Tony Soprano? Memo to the Boss — We don’t give a crap about The Ghost of Tom Joad. Bruce, how many of your fans do you think ever read “The Grapes of Wrath?” How about “The Ballad of Tony Soprano”? New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is a big Springsteen fan. I think some reporter ought to ask Christie what he thinks happened to Tony Soprano in the diner. Come to think of it, there’s a report that Christie is preparing for running for president in 2016 by studying foreign policy. Chris might also want to take a class on traffic flow while he’s at it. I think the guy tries to shoot Tony, but the bullet deflects off Carmela’s earring. After the close call, Tony goes legit and becomes a producer of Broadway shows.

Prostate Health Assessment Event The Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center at Thomas Jefferson University and Prostate Health International’s Gary Papa Run are offering free prostate screenings as part of a research program. Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death among men. Screening is important because prostate cancer shows no symptoms in its earliest stages. Many organizations recommend prostate health assessment as part of men’s healthcare. Free screenings, including a blood test for prostate specific antigen (PSA), testosterone and cholesterol and a digital rectal exam, will take place at the following two locations: • Wednesday, September 17, 2014, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., at the Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center – Bodine Building, 111 South 11th Street, Center City • Friday, October 3, 2014, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., at Jefferson at the Navy Yard – 3 Crescent Drive, Suite 100, South Philadelphia Registration is required. To register for your free screenings, or for more information, call 1-800-JEFF-NOW.

egend has it that Julius Caesar, while invading Gaul, invented the idea of cooking a rooster in wine and local herbs after locals sent him the bird bearing a “Bon Appétit” message around its neck. While the world may never know the truth, Norma Elizabeth Fratantoni has developed her own version of verifiable goodness with her Pepper Coq au vin. The resident of the 1900 block of South 11th Street has experienced health complications that have inhibited her preparation of this dish, but its deliciousness lives on through her daughter-in-law Maureen’s execution. Caesar needed eight years to subdue the Gauls, but you will not need anywhere near as long to conquer your hunger. SPR

Caribou Café

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

Y

ears ago, Broadway-bound musicals and plays used to “try out” in a few cities, especially in Philadelphia. Writers, actors and directors would work out the kinks before the New York City debut. This practice went the way of the ark, as previews are offered before the official opening night. I often go to Manhattan to see a musical or play, but I have not seen one in the city for a number of years. “The Book of Mormon” has been on my must-see list since it swept the Tony Awards in 2011. I purchased tickets for a Saturday matinee at the Forrest Theatre. Was it funny? Yes, but not truly belly laugh funny like “South Park” or “The Simpsons.” The show ended at 4:30 p.m, so it was too late for lunch and too early for dinner. Then I remembered Caribou Café had a bar menu on offer at off times. I have eaten here on many occasions. Chef/owner Olivier Desaintmartin offers dishes from France’s 15 regions. Through the years I have enjoyed grilled hanger steak, wild salmon, a terrific quiche, perfect salads, chocolate mousse and tart tatin. It was time for a return visit. The bi-level bistro has a long bar, with jazz playing over the sound system. There is outdoor seating as well. Caribou Café began to fill with theatergoers, including us. A glass of French sauvignon blanc ($9.50) set the stage for my meal. Edward sipped a martini ($12) as we discussed the menu. I wanted to try new dishes, except for one, but I will get to that soon.

A flammenküche ($9) is a cross between a pizza and a tart. This treat from Alsace is prepared with a round, thin crepe that was placed on a pizza pan. It was topped with onions, bacon and creamy Boursin cheese. We sliced it into wedges and folded each piece over, New York City pizzastyle, and enjoyed. Salade maison ($13.50) was a mound of immaculately fresh mixed greens, red beets and haricots verts dressed in a tangy shallot-mustard vinaigrette. A toasted crouton, cut from a baguette, was spread with Bucheron, one of my favorite and Restaurant Review:

pricey goat cheeses from France. This is a classic bistro dish one would find in restaurants throughout Paris. I mentioned one dish I had to enjoy again. The onion soup at Caribou Café ($8) is the finest in town, but I had not eaten it in a number of years. Consistency is king here; it was as good as I remembered it to be. Homemade not-a-bit salty stock was laced with buttery caramelized onions, a crouton and a rich lid of piping hot and bubbly Gruyere cheese as the topping. This was perfection in a crock.

ing the strands of hot cheese from the soup was a culinary joy. A simple nine-ounce burger ($10.50) was grilled medium-rare and was wellseasoned. It was topped with a tomato remoulade and caramelized onions. I found the brioche bun to be a bit hard, but it was not sweet. Patrons get a choice of either a salad or french fries. Go for the hot and crisp fries. Grilled ham and cheese was taken to the next level with a classic croquet monsieur ($9). Thinly-sliced delectable French ham was layered with Gruyere on buttered sliced brioche and grilled to perfection. Something so simple can be so satisfying. A choice of salad or fries comes with the sandwich. A glass of Les Collines ($10) — a Cote du Rhones from France — drank well with our sandwiches. I have interviewed Desaintmartin on numerous occasions. He is a stickler for fresh ingredients and lets them sing on the plate. He was not cooking at Caribou Café during our meal, yet the dishes were consistent with the ones he has prepared for me. Four tips of the toque to Caribou Café. SPR

T&N’s Chicken Florentine with Mushroom Risotto

C

ertain employment stops possess a knack for helping a person to discover the full extent of his or her talent. For the last two years, Tom Deeney Jr. has explored his excellence as the co-owner of T&N HomeMade Kitchen, 1820 W. Moyamensing

Owners Tom Deeney Jr. and Micheal Tuono

T&N HomeMade Kitchen Owners: Michael Tuono and Tom Deeney Jr. Opened: Sept. 1980 1820 W. Moyamensing Ave. 215-462-1095 tnhomemadekitchen.com

Ave., with the popular establishment proving that novelty is his niche. “We’re always looking to do better, and that ambition really drives me,” the 44-year-old resident of the 1900 block of Ritner Street said of the attitude at his Marconi business. “We pride ourselves on living up to the ‘homemade’ that’s in our name.” The Girard Estate dweller received his education at the Mays Landing, N.J.-situated Academy of Culinary Arts and has made himself known at numerous notable stops, including Dante & Luigi’s, 762 S. 10th St. He teamed up in 2012 with Michael Tuono, whose family began the eatery in 1980 as T&N Sandwich Shoppe, and has enjoyed making many additions to the menu, including his Chicken Florentine with Mushroom Risotto. “Risotto is versatile, so I defi-

nitely thought it would work well with the chicken,” Deeney said, adding that as September races by, the dish’s inclusion of nutmeg endows a touch of fall to the creation. A bi-weekly special, the poultry offering has merited great reactions from diners, with the cook noting that freshness and fierceness help him to produce the elements, especially the risotto. “You have to love what you’re trying to accomplish,” he said between shakes of the grain-based labor of love. “When I put everything together, I want people to think they’ve made a great choice.” CHICKEN

INGREDIENTS:

1 8-ounce chicken breast 1 cup of cooked spinach 1 egg white 1/4 cup of heavy cream 1 teaspoon of nutmeg

Photos by Corey Carter

1 small tomato, diced 1/2 teaspoon of chopped garlic 4 mint leaves 1 cup of wine 1 teaspoon of butter

DIRECTIONS: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Sauté the spinach using oil, garlic, salt and pepper. After draining the juice, add the spinach, egg white, cream and nutmeg to a food processor for up to two minutes. Add the spinach mousse to the chicken, and wrap the poultry over it. Sear in a pan before placing in the oven for 20 minutes. In the same pan, sear the tomato and garlic for two minutes before adding the mint leaves and the wine, reducing the alcohol by half. Re-

move from heat, and mix the butter with other ingredients. MUSHROOM RISOTTO INGREDIENTS:

2 cups of rice 2 cups of heavy cream 1 pound of mushrooms 1 cup of Parmesan cheese

DIRECTIONS: Add customarily cooked white, jasmine or basmati rice, the cooked-down mushrooms, the cream and the cheese to a pan, and cook until they establish consistency, taking care to stir the contents constantly and to shake the pan so that the rice evenly covers the space. Place on plate beside the chicken, and add the tomato mixture atop both. SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/ food-and-drink/features.

LIFESTYLES

Horoscopes By Mystic Terry Psychic Reader

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21): Others aren’t exactly putting on the pressure, but you feel the need to g prove the caliber of your staying power. You are actually way out ahead of the field, so you can afford to pull the reins in a little now. Lucky number: 164.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19): You feel great tension between goals and aspirations versus responh sibilities.

Forever spoke-n for An East Passyunk Crossing resident will honor his late stepmother by participating in a bicycling fundraiser. ■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

W

hen Sean O’Hara boards his bicycle exactly a month from today, he will do so with enduring energy in his legs and lasting love in his heart. The resident of the 1800 block of South 13th Street will display his vigor and ardor as a registrant in The Ride to Conquer Cancer, a 150-mile excursion that will benefit Penn Medicine’s Abramson Cancer Center and help him to laud the influence of stepmother Sandy O’Hara, who succumbed to breast cancer Feb. 15. “My brother Kevin and I were pondering how to honor her life, so when I became aware of the ride, I thought we should do it,” the 30-year-old said Tuesday at the NovaCare Complex, 1 NovaCare Way, where he works for the Philadelphia Eagles as an account executive, corporate partnerships. “It’s going to offer me a great opportunity to clear my mind and focus and reflect on just what having had Sandy in my life has meant for me.” As the leader of The Breakaway Bunch, the East Passyunk Crossing inhabitant will unite with relatives Oct. 11-12 in what ridetovictory.org declares a trip through Pennsylvania’s “picturesque scenery.” While O’Hara will certainly appreciate the visuals, they will prove secondary draws to his chief aims, honoring his fallen loved one and helping to raise research funds for cancer’s eradication. “The disease really affects all who are around it,” he said of going from believing Sandy O’Hara would emerge triumphant in her second bout with her malady to feeling that special occasions would have few, if any, successors. “She left us at 65, and we had a great celebration of her amazing life, but I wanted my own way to mark my love for her.” Familiar with fierce tests of his might through endurance sports and an Ironman Triathlon, O’Hara has abounded in positivity during his preparation, finding himself akin to his stepmother, whom he commended for compartmentalizing her pain and maximizing moments with family and friends. When his professional identity last year helped him to see more of her at her West Chester abode, he grew even more reverent of her regard for persistence and sees his impending journey as the least he can do to commemorate more than two

Sean O’Hara, top, has used numerous stretches, including the Schuylkill River Trail, to prepare for his excursion. Exactly one month from today, he will join with, among others, his pictured brothers-inlaw Sean Keaveney and Steve Hendrick to commemorate the life of stepmother Sandy O’Hara. The matriarch, who died in February, would have turned 66 today. Photos provided by The Ride to Conquer Cancer

decades of support and more than 15 years of her having battled her affliction. “There are just so many memories,” O’Hara said. “No matter how ill someone is, it still hurts to say goodbye. Through what I’m doing, I want to see to it that people stop having to part with their relatives. It’s going to take great efforts to do so, but just like Sandy, I’m not letting that set me back.” THE WEST CHESTER native has always honed an interest in sports-related pursuits, dabbling in soccer, basketball and running in his youth. After local schooling, he matriculated at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to study sports administration, eventually linking up with Nike and the school’s basketball team.

“I’ve always loved sports but never necessarily saw a life for me in them as a performer,” he said. “However, I realized it was still very possible to make a living through them.” O’Hara initiated his career through the retail world and earned subsequent opportunities in the Tar Heel State and South Carolina, the latter through a connection with Clemson University. Highly goal-oriented, he eventually saw his future focusing on strategy and sports marketing yet was uncertain how to advance to the next rung. “It came together when I went to grad school at Ohio University,” the motivated man said of fulfilling ambitious quests that have also given him powerful positions through such heavyweights as the

PRO SPORTS at southphillyreview.com/blogs.php University of Illinois and the Eagles, whose staff he joined in May 2013. “Along with the great action that we encounter when watching sports, there are so many great values to derive from them. That’s what’s been of extreme importance to me for the last few years and especially since I joined this organization.” Throughout his stops, including a San Francisco-based internship, O’Hara has relied on the love of relatives for support. His mother and father divorced when he was 5, with Sandy O’Hara becoming his stepmother three years later. A tremendous influence on his maturation, she became a confidant and the recipient of empowering respect that her cancer’s return, which came during his sophomore year in high school, made only stronger. “To many people, cancer is an instant death sentence in their minds, but that wasn’t her mentality,” O’Hara said. “She went through numerous treatments and had a fighter’s mentality. She made it easy for us to think she would get through it all.” Hope could not counter the advance of her sickness, which reached her bones, liver and kidneys. Because of their loving connection, the grieving stepson knew he would need to convert his sadness into action, with sports a natural means to do so. “Toward the end, when I was able to see her more because I was back in the area, I found it so enriching to recall all the lessons about life and love that she provided,” O’Hara said. “She lived a full life and has helped me to do the same.” That existence includes an amazing willingness to make his longest bicycling adventure. Since cancer accounts for nearly one out of every four deaths in the United States and claims, according to the National Cancer Institute, almost 1,600 lives daily, O’Hara knows that not only should like-minded individuals believe they can be victorious over the vile intruder, they must know they can. “We’re all riding for special people,” he said. “We’re commemorating lives and fighting for others.” SPR For more information, visit ridetovictory. org.
