n Friday night, the rooftop of the Wharton Lofts, 1148 Wharton St., was packed to capacity — more than 200 Philadelphians had come for various reasons, but all of them

had a common interest: Columbus Square Park. In two short hours, the Columbus Square Advisory Council managed to pull together approximately $10,500 in donations, a good start for its ﬁrst fundraising effort since 1st District Councilman Mark Squilla facilitated a $300,000 gift that precipitated a now full-on grassroots organizational effort to collect a total of about $3 million to get the Passyunk Square institution overhauled. As the sun set over the multi-generational crowd’s view of Center City skylines, Ilene Wilder, the council’s president, and Dave Rumsey, the event’s chair, gave a short presentation with the help of the Community Design Collective’s redesign renderings.

The importance of play

When it was Rumsey’s turn, he started by asking the crowd “How many people have been in this neighborhood for one year?” A handful of hands and shouts went up. “How many have been here five years?” he asked, soliciting another, slightly larger group of raised arms and exclamations. But the loudest and biggest demographic may have been a surprise to some — the 25- and 30-year residents really whooped it up. “I thought that was pretty amazing myself. I was really excited about that,” Wilder said on Monday of the shows of hands. “It was telling. I had a guy come up to me, who I know grew up in this area, and give me a big hug and kiss and See COLUMBUS SQUARE page 10 >> Passyunk Square’s Jackson School beneﬁts big from two companies’ charitable support.

Word on the Street What do you think of CVS’ decision to stop selling cigarettes?

“It’s a private company, and there’s a lot of other stores you can go to buy cigarettes One company won’t make a difference.” Carlo Morelli, 15th and Moore streets

“It makes sense to create a healthier atmosphere for a pharmacy. Although it doesn’t make sense if you remove one cancer-causing chemical and then leave in others like soda.” Page Hamrick, 28th and Wharton streets

“It bothers me because I used to be able to get my coffee, and then I could go and get my cigarettes. Now I can’t do that, and it’s not convenient anymore.” Briana Secreto, 12th and Mifflin streets

“Cigarettes are bad for your health, and I think it’s good that they took it off the shelves.” Rhonda Wallace, 23rd and Morris streets

 Buying meatballs in bulk

To the Editor: Tom Cardella really knows how to make a point with clear imagery (“Corbett’s Meatballs,” Sept. 4). By comparing Corbett’s education budget to a couple of meatballs, he falls just short of calling the governor himself a “meathead.” Here is how those meatballs translate into simple numbers: As Cardella notes, Pennsylvania lost its federal stimulus money, equivalent to a $1-billion “meatball,” which former Gov. Ed Rendell had applied mostly to education. When Corbett took office and failed to restore that extra $1 billion in his 2011-’12 budget, causing larger class sizes, cuts to programs like Head Start, and many layoffs, while passing the costs of basic education to local school districts. He simply blamed the loss of the stimulus for the shortfall. Not his fault or his worry. Then in his ’12-’13 budget, Corbett touted a “hike” of $122.5 million for basic education — the little meat patty in place of the meatball in Cardella’s analogy. While it was the first increase in two years, it was not enough to offset all the cuts from his previous budget. Districts across the commonwealth had two choices: To raise local taxes or tolerate austerity. Certainly, Philadelphia

has experienced major cuts in programs, in closed schools and forced layoffs because of this insufficient budget. Again, in ’14, Corbett bragged about a record-setting education budget but failed to inform voters that it includes such items as nearly $100 million in “opportunity scholarships” for private and parochial schools, an extra $105 million to restore previous cuts in the school employee’s pension fund, and more than $480 million to pay for employees’ Social Security. Not much left over for ground beef. So, we are still left with a choice of the status quo or a new governor who promises enough meatballs to make a filling sandwich. Gloria C.

A charming season To the Editor: I have been noticing lately that good customer service seems to be making a long-awaited comeback! I am aware of this change because I found myself feeling quite irritated whenever I would approach situations where some type of service was required. There were many times I handled this bad behavior in a negative way, most times I would not revisit the establishment. I have recently noticed some very pleasant changes. It feels almost foreign to walk into a store or supermarket and have people greeting you and showing appreciation. Whatever has caused this enjoyable customer service restoration, I can certainly speak for myself when I say that it is very refreshing. It seemed to be very much on the decline, and, although not perfected, it is definitely better. Whether it is due to smart training strategies and mandatory demands or many coming to the harsh reality that they may be replaced, it seems to be working. I guess by social media standards, one might say that our improved customer service is trending. I have condemned the city in the past for its ignorance, so must I applaud the current efforts of courtesy being made to better our communication skills, which will continue to be a work in progress. I love our city and am always excited to see it flourish, so eager to see the bad public opinion being washed away, replaced with the character and charm with which we have always been associated. By the way, I hope everyone has a great day! Debbie Russino South Philly Comment on these letters or topics at southphillyreview.com/opinion/letters.

POLICE REPORT

Teacher dead in likely suicide A sixth-grade instructor at a Lower Moyamensing school succumbed to presumed self-inﬂicted scissor and knife wounds. ■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

t approximately 8:11 a.m. Sept. 11, officers from the 3rd District responded to a call from the Holiday Inn, 900 Packer Ave. They arranged for transport to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania after hotel personnel led them to 48-year-old Amy Persky Newman, Officer Jillian Russell of the Police Public Affairs Unit said. A conference attendee at the location had ventured to the women’s restroom and noticed blood pooling in one of the stalls, with law enforcement agents finding Newman, a sixth-grade instructor at Francis Scott Key Elementary School, 2230 S. Eighth St., suffering from scissor and steak knife wounds to her neck, arms and a breast. At 3:40 p.m., following a surgical procedure, hospital staff pronounced her dead. Authorities, who are treating the matter as a suicide based on the discovery of a note at the school, divulged that the deceased figure, of Newtown in Bucks County, had reported for her duties at her normal time yet left after a testy phone conversation, Russell said. She left her purse in her vehicle and proceeded directly to the restroom. Officials have not released the contents of the school-situated note supposedly penned by Newman, who had logged 20 years at Key.

Police ofﬁcer arrested Based on an investigation by the Philadelphia Police Internal Affairs Bureau and the District Attorney’s Office, Philadelphia Police Officer Joseph Griffin surrendered Sept. 11 for allegedly physically assaulting his wife. The 30-year-old figure, Joseph Grifﬁn with eight years on the force, had been handling duties for the

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

3rd District, 11th and Wharton streets, but, according to Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles H. Ramsey, will likely lose his position following a 30-day suspension. The entities’ investigation posits that Griffin threatened and assaulted his bride in their Northeast Philly home June 4. The District Attorney’s Office has charged him with endangering the welfare of a child, simple assault, terroristic threats, harassment, intimidation of a victim and recklessly endangering another person.

Shooting victim dies One day after suffering gunshot wounds to her face and left arm, a Queen Village resident died at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. Just after 10 p.m. Sept. 8, 32-year-old Nekeisha Eugene received the fatal shots within her quarters at the Courtyard Apartments at Riverview, 1021 S. Fourth St. 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 mate and deemed him a person of interest, having collected six spent shell casings and a semi-automatic pistol. On Sept. 10, Marcus R. Johnson turned himself in to police to face murder and possession of an instrument of crime charges. The 32-year-old, who had also been living within the facility, had his bail denied and awaits an Oct. 1 preliminary hearing.

Prostitution bust The Citywide Vice Unit arrested a Newbold resident for allegedly soliciting sex from an undercover officer. The law enforcement division conducted a patronizing prostitution initiative Sept. 11 within Alejandro Tandoc the 26th Police District and collared four men, including Alejandro Tandoc, of the 1800 block of Daly Street. Authorities confiscated $267, a 1993 Toyota Corolla, a 2007 Toyota Camry and an ’05 Saturn. They charged the 45-year-old local individual, who awaits a Sept. 24 motions hearing, with patronizing prostitution and solicitation.

Blaze claims life A fire that took 45 minutes to extinguish left an 82-year-old woman dead Friday. Shortly after 10 p.m., the Philadelphia Fire Department responded to a call on the 2800 block of South Marshall Street and spent the aforementioned time period

tending to it, finally finding success after venting the roof and the back of the home. Personnel, including Fire Commissioner Derrick Sawyer, who noted flames flowed from first- and second-floor windows, eventually discovered the body of Elizabeth Little. Authorities noted nobody else was present and that they located a smoke detector in the basement. As of press time, they were still trying to determine a cause.

Updating charges

Fire away Two vehicles and a home sustained gunshot damage in Point Breeze last week. At approximately 11 p.m. Sept. 7, two complainants reported hearing gunfire on the 2000 block of Dickinson Street, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. They quickly noticed a black 2008 Cadillac with damage to its interior, windshield and passenger side front door window and a red ’03 Mercury with the same damage, minus any door window impairment. The second complainant noticed a bullet strike mark on the front wall of his house, Tolliver said, with detectives processing the scene, conducting neighborhood surveys and receiving residents’ confirmation of hearing, yet not seeing, the gunshots.

Transit trouble Police arrested a North Philly man for allegedly threatening and assaulting a transit operator in Grays Ferry Saturday. Responding to a report of a man with a gun at 11:45 a.m., police ventured to 32nd and Morris streets and met with the complainant, a driver for SEPTA paratransit contractor Eden Transport. The worker explained that as he began to unload a wheelchair-bound passenger, an unknown male became livid because the process blocked the street, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The victim added that the irate figure, who was a passenger in a cab directly behind the bus, hurled numerous demands at the transport motorist before exiting and supposedly pulling a gun from his jacket. He reportedly pointed the weapon at the driver’s head, grabbed him by the neck and barked “You gonna move the bus now.” The complainant asked the alleged gun wielder not to shoot him before observing him flee eastbound on Morris Street toward South Napa Street, Tolliver said. Authorities put out flash information on the individual and determined he had arranged for pick up with a female companion and three children from the 1600 block of South Napa Street moments before the alleged incident. They located Christopher Featherstone at the woman’s home and arrested the 25-year-old, charging him with assault, receiving stolen property, weapons violations, making terroristic threats and recklessly endangering another person. He had not posted his $750,000 bail as of press time and awaits a Sept. 30 preliminary hearing.

Walk interrupted A man walking along a Dickinson Square West street suffered a gunshot wound to his left knee last week. While walking northbound on the 1900 block of South Sixth Street at 11:47 a.m. Sept. 8, the complainant observed a gray Nissan sedan pulling up to him, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. An unknown black male in the passenger seat fired up to four shots at him, and although he ended up hit, the victim ran to the 600 block of Hoffman Street, where authorities learned of his plight. He received transport to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. A detailed description of the shooter was not available as of press time.

An ex-East Passyunk Crossing resident in custody for allegedly raping a Center City woman will have a formal arraignment next month, three months after his initial hearing date. Philadelphia Municipal Court Judge James M. DeLeon announced Sept. 11 that Milton Garcia, formerly of the 1800 block of South Eighth Street, will no longer have kidnapping for ransom and robbery to inflict serious injury charges against him, but that he will retain 14 other charges, including aggravated and sexual assault, burglary, false imprisonment, forcible rape and theft, for supposedly raping a young doctor in her apartment June 21. Authorities detained the Honduran national June 24 after tracking the victim’s confiscated cell phone to Garcia’s address, arresting him at Tashan, 777 S. Broad St., where he had worked for three months, and reportedly finding the female’s keys in his possession. According to the United States Department of Homeland Security’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement, officials removed Garcia from the United States in June 2013, with the agency having since lodged a detainer against him to ensure its personnel receives notification before his release from custody. The Special Victims Unit added it is trying to determine if the individual has been involved in other assaults.

The importance of play Passyunk Square’s Jackson School beneﬁts big from two companies’ charitable support. ■ By Bill Chenevert R e v i e w S ta f f W r i t e r

isa Kaplan started her ﬁfth year as the principal of the Jackson School, 1213 S. 13th St., with her recess space under construction. But she couldn’t have been happier. With the help of a community invested in local pre-K to eighth grade education, her students are the lucky beneﬁciaries of nearly $200,000 of donated materials, labor and fundraising. “When I became the principal here, I called it the concrete jungle,” Kaplan joked, explaining the dire conditions of her previously empty and lackluster recess space. “Long story short, it’s in, it’s awesome and I think it just shows the community that we are a public school that really has a lot of love coming towards us from the neighborhood and the community, and people understand how important these things are to the growth of children,” she said, standing in front of the multi-sport court and jungle gym dome that was celebrated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony Saturday. Mayor Michael A. Nutter was in attendance at Saturday’s ceremony, as was 1st District City Councilman Mark Squilla, a host of volunteers and parents, but also, most significantly, two of the driving forces behind securing funding and building the two structures: Alterra Properties’ Leo Addimando and The EnVision Group E-Built’s Jim Maransky. “I started working with a lot of people to get something in the schoolyard to benefit the kids and I started working with Jim Maransky from E-Built and Chrstine Priven from PlayInBetween,” Kaplan said, saying she’d been hoping for help to materialize and it was in the early planning process for years. Maransky was taking a continuing education class at Temple when he met Joseph Manko, an attorney who introduced Maransky to Priven. “Christine and I had a meeting and she said ‘Hey, I’m trying to get a playground for Jackson Elementary – would you join the effort?’” Maransky remembered. “We were working on it for about six months, and Leo and I were talking about another project on storm management.” Addimando is the builder and developer behind the Wharton Street Lofts, 1148 Wharton St., and he’d been working on implementing a stormwater management roof garden with Maransky. “His project was one block away from the school where we were trying to get this done, and Leo came in and said he would donate for it, between $10 and $20,000,” Maransky explained. A good chunk of the project’s early funding came from the Olitsky Family Foundaiton, as well. But then something really cool happened. In working on the rooftop garden, Maransky told Addimando about a Stormwater

Management Incentives Program grant through the Philadelphia Industrial Development Corporation. Alterra won a nearly $80,000 grant and turned around and donated it to the playground. Maransky is quick to recognize Addimando’s gesture as philanthropy – his Wharton Lofts project has no direct stake in Jackson School’s health. The grant-turned-donation “got us up to $100k. We threw a fundraiser on the rooftop of the Wharton Street Lofts and basically raised almost $60 to $70,000, which got us close enough to say ‘We’re gonna do this,’” Maransky said. THE BUILD TOOK about three weeks, and Jackson’s student population is already crawling all over the climbing dome and sport court. Kaplan said she has three lunches and five recess periods per day with one for pre-K, one for kindergarten and the other three spread out between grades one through eight. She also shared some dismal numbers. “I lost $185,000 from my budget since I’ve been here ,and I’ve grown 160 kids,” Kaplan confessed, adding “I just lost all of my kindergarten aids because I couldn’t afford to buy them.” But with recent grassroots-organized green roof renovations, and a guest from Shipley school who came in and painted the school’s gym, Kaplan’s pleased to see the good will continue to imbue the school with positivity. “It just gets worse and worse but when you are receptive to things like this, they seem to come your way,” she said. “We try to get involved in communities where we’re going to develop and thankfully we were in a financial position to lead it,” Addimando said, and noted that these kinds of projects carry extra significance due to the public school system’s crippling budget restraints. “Public education in Philadelphia is probably the single biggest problem the city has to tackle,” Addimando added. “If we can just do our little part and build a hundred thousand dollar playground, then that’s great.” The $200,000 grand total for the project included some

beautification projects, a peaceful bench and pergola to honor a student who passed away at Jackson last school year and also, crucially, an aid to assist during recess through Playworks, an organization that “believes recess and play can unlock our kids’ superpowers.” “What they’re there to do is engage the children in constructive, productive activities during their recess – it keeps kids from hurting each other, it teaches them life skills, motor skills and teamwork,” Addimando explained, a program he funded last year and, with the raised funds, will be returning this year. It’s also “an extra set of eyes,” he said. Both structures are lined and anchored by a poured apoxy and rubber fall protection surface and it’s not cheap. “We didn’t skimp. We did it right,” Addimando said. Maransky noted that the rubber itself adds up to about $40,000 and the rest of the equipment, some of it donated by Kompan, totaled nearly $100,000. “My company and I donated personally, and we did all the design and construction for free. That’s really how it came together,” Maransky said, and broke down how important that is to the process. “They got a $160,000 playground at actual costs. If you were to put it out for bid for private construction, it would be closer to $250 to $300,000.” “We didn’t handle any of the funding; it all went through Passyunk Square [Civic Association], which is a great partner to the school,” Kaplan said. “You do it because ultimately it’s only about what’s good for kids and the community has really rallied behind this school and it has been awesome.” “The kids love it. They absolutely love it and they respect it,” the principal added. “It creates a whole different type of recess for us and so far the kids have been really, really enjoying it.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Bill Chenevert at bchenevert@southphillyreview.com or ext. 117.

COLUMBUS SQUARE continued from page 1 he said ‘Thank you so much for doing this – this is really awesome.’” What started years ago with crowdsourcing ideas for what an updated Columbus Square would look like now has a dream completion date, albeit a vague one. “At this point we’re in fundraising mode and we’re hoping to break ground within two years. That’s our goal,” Chris DiCapua, a resident of the 1300 block of South 13th Street and vice president of the advisory council, said. “The time range for the park to be totally done is three to five years.” With a great deal of support from the community, including donations from Passyunk Avenue businesses like Acme and a significant gift from Conestoga Bank for the event, it does seem possible that the $3 million could be raised as quickly as hoped and that a five-year completion point is merely a safe estimation. The City of Philadelphia Parks & Recreation Department is on board. So are the Passyunk Square Civic Association, the CDC, and, to the delight and surprise of Wilder, the Passyunk Avenue Revitalization Corporation. “I can’t think of a better project to be involved in. PARC is committed” and “will be a real strong force behind this project,” Pam Zenzola, a PARC board member, resident of the 1300 block of Federal Street, and the president of the PSCA, said on behalf of executive director Sam Sherman. “You’ll see PARC put out the money and we will be a big interest in this project.” Mark Focht, the First Deputy Commissioner of Parks & Facilities, preceded the closing presentation saying “We’re thrilled with this project. We’re your partners and we look forward to moving this project forward.” THERE ISN’T TOO much opposition to the park at this point and, if at all, it’s with specific design elements. “The only opposition right now is there’s still some pushback with Taney [Youth Baseball Association] because they want two fields and they’re only going to get one,” DiCapua said. As SPR reported back in February, at a meeting at the 12th-and-Wharton-streets center, there were a few objections to the revealed renderings. But as Wilder stressed, the planning process was advertised, open to the public,

and Taney had signed off on the proposed changes ahead of the winter reveal. Monica and Jason Marziani were in attendance on the rooftop with their young son Sebastian. They’re residents of the 1600 block of South 12th Street – she a freelance web designer and he a software developer. “You see a lot of weekend sport stuff happens [at the park], but those fields can be condensed down, I think. Most of the time you’re there it’s two huge baseball fields that aren’t being used,” Jason Marziani said. His wife ends up taking Sebastian up to Hawthorne Park, 12th and Catharine streets for everything other than use of the park’s tot lot. “Every time I’ve been over there there’s people who are doing that exact thing – reading books and sunning. I take him up there from time to time just to let him run around,” Monica Marziani said. The condition of the park is not ideal. There’s a lot of dust, bugs, ditches that collect rainwater and general room for improvement. “We need better, cooler green spaces. Not just green but cooler, more inviting and with a better design aesthetic,” Curt Alexander, the owner of Urban Jungle, 1526 E. Passyunk Ave., and resident of the 1900 block of South Juniper Street said. “As all these parks start to connect, we start to minimize the distance between parks.” The corporate life retiree started greening his home and once he found their home on Passyunk, he jumped into the grand task of softening some of South Philly’s hard edges, something he’s taking to task through weeds.

“I want to start a program where I incentivize essentially for people to clean up their neighborhood. Let people come in with their weeds and we we’re just gonna collect them, and they’ll get a stamp and a card,” he explained. Get enough stamps, and one will be rewarded with a 4-inch plant or gift. His team will turn weeds into mulch. “We’ve been here 30-some years. When we first arrived there was no neighborhood group,” Mary Ellen Bradley, who calls the 1100 block of Titan street home with her husband Joe, said. She remembers when Frank DiCicco started an Italian Market West group, but “now we have how many groups?” she mused. “You can walk anywhere all weekend and never get in a car — that’s what we loved about [the neighborhood].” She and her husband had come simply to hear more about the project and were overwhelmed by the robust and diverse attendance. “There are so many young people in South Philadelphia, it’s amazing,” she added. “There are a lot of people who appreciate the evolution,” Wilder said and stresses that there are many ways to get involved, noting one of the best places to start is their new website (mycolumbussquarepark.org). “You move forward. Everything evolves, things change but that doesn’t mean you’re out of it. Anyone who lives around this park or uses it is part of the fabric of the community.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Bill Chenevert at bchenevert@southphillyreview. com or ext. 117.

lways yearning to understand her place in the world, Tina Brock experienced an epiphany years ago when attending a staging of “The Chairs” by Eugene Ionesco. Declaring “I get this” when viewing the play, the resident of the 800 block of Kimball Street looked to situate herself among fellow fanatics of provocative existential pieces and decided “learning to bake it myself” would offer the best means for navigating through uncertainty. Now a bona fide buff of the Theatre of the Absurd, she is enjoying a figurative feast as the director of the Romanian writer’s “Rhinoceros,” a FringeArts Festival entry running through Sunday. “It’s a grand, deep play with so many issues,” the 55-year-old said of the 1959 creation that addresses such topics as conformity and loyalty through characters’ transformations into rhinoceroses. “When I think of all the confusion in our lives and wonder what’s happening to people, it takes on even more significance for contemporary audiences.” The Bella Vista inhabitant is helming the action for the Idiopathic Ridiculopathy Consortium, which she co-founded in 2006 and strengthens as its producing artistic director. “Rhinoceros” marks her seventh Ionesco production, with the Adrienne Theatre-situated study of “the contagion of anxiety” helping her to buck conceptions of its genre’s intentions. “Ionesco and his peers have a reputation as nihilistic, depressing figures, but I don’t see them as that,” Brock said of the scribes,

LIFESTYLES whose output analyzes quests for answers when one’s desires for power and perfection fail. “We’re going to lose quite often, but we must realize what we can gain from being diligent. For that reason, I see ‘Rhinoceros’ as being understandable on a very basic level, especially in a place like Philadelphia.” The admirer of attempts at escaping angst had contemplated presenting the play for four years, finally seeing it as a necessary component of discussions on commitment, namely, how true people are to their beliefs and how unwavering their responsibilities to others prove. Deeming herself “an anxious person” who has engaged in promising practices to acquire contentment, she confessed “Rhinoceros” and similar calls for constancy, no matter the consequences, enable her to connect with the universe and forge a fiercer sense of self. “This is a text- and idea-heavy work,” Brock said of the three-act effort. “It’s been my job and that of my colleagues to make it very visceral and shatter narrow notions of what Absurdism can teach us about ourselves and others.” Relying on Ionesco’s mindset that theater should aim to put on stage what is inexpressible through any other form, she

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

appreciates the inherent surplus of struggle within the script yet hopes, like her experience with “The Chairs,” patrons see sanity lurking even when life’s descent seems in the ascendancy. “I think we all want to understand our place in the world,” Brock said. “We’re looking for our special purpose while battling so many odds, even ones we create for ourselves. We take on so many influences in our lives, and theater is a lasting one for mine.” THE MISSOURI NATIVE, who has resided in South Philly for 13 years, enjoyed dance and ballet as a child and produced backyard-based artistic gatherings as a junior high school student. Feeling as if a creative calling were in her blood, she pursued journalistic and theatrical distinction at the University of Maryland, adding speech communication work at West Chester University and graduate psychology endeavors at Rutgers University. Gaining invaluable awareness of social engagement through employment with WHYY, she also coveted copious exposure to theater and has championed her childhood aspirations by becoming a much-respected freelance actress. “With regards to my road now, I was be-

ing cast as the absurd neighbor or the silly friend,” Brock said of tracing her traction. “Absurdism came to be very important to my formation as an artist, something that I’m definitely still thrilled about working on, along with becoming a more cognizant director.” The dual presence, whose local credits include roles for Arden Theatre and Philadelphia Theatre companies; Azuka Theatre; Luna Theater, 620 S. Eighth St.; and Theatre Exile, 1340 S. 13th St., set to her introspective and collective endeavors in earnest eight years ago through the formation of the Idiopathic Ridiculopathy Consortium, which derives its name from a diagnosis she received while working as a standardized patient. Brock confessed the troupe initially held few expectations, holding “Let’s see if they come” as its motto when preparing for its inaugural show at the now-defunct Spark Festival. Having parted with that minimalist mindset years ago, she and her allies have, as their website contends, determined to ask ticket buyers “to allow themselves to engage in and commit to the event with the hopeful result of shedding personal and collective light on the difficult questions we face today.” “That’s not always a task for the faint of

heart,” Brock divulged, adding that making threads among themes and analyzing common conundrums among performers and patrons assist her in taming the beast of her anxiety. “As life unfolds, we often become too reactionary because we can come to think about what the purpose is in planning when we really have so little control. The point is to keep looking for security.” Artistically needing to say something about people’s desires to feel fertile instead of fruitless, the figure, who also works as a case developer for the National Board of Medical Examiners, believes “Rhinoceros” can provide a profitable prescription for gaining balance and realizing that personal depth can yield communal improvement. “I’m still learning how to run the company,” Brock, with interest in Samuel Beckett’s “Endgame” and “Waiting for Godot” as possible projects, said. “There’s so much more to say about and learn from great works.” SPR For tickets, visit idiopathicridiculopathyconsortium.org.

Genius

ntil my wife and I received an iPad for a gift from my kids in May of 2012, our lives had been Apple-free. I was only vaguely aware of Steve Jobs as a celebrated American entrepreneur of high-tech gadgets. Never stood in line waiting for the iPhone. Knew he was considered a genius, but didn’t think he was in the same league as Thomas Edison. I realize much of this is heresy to folks younger than me, which constitutes most of the population. But folks, this isn’t a story about me, it’s a story about a real genius. Maybe like me, you’ve never met a genius. If that’s the case, all you have to do is go into the shiny Apple Store on Walnut Street where they actually employ geniuses. If I had known there was a Genius Bar at the rear of the store, I would’ve visited much earlier. Looking back at the bars I’ve been in, there wasn’t a genius in sight. But this is Apple, people. The Genius Bar is actually a tech support station where Apple employees offer support for their many products. These employees bear the title of “genius.” (Just so you know, Apple is devoid of any sense of irony, but that doesn’t mean they’re bad people). If you have a specific problem with one of their products, Apple requires you to make an appointment, preferably online (please don’t mention you had problems making an online appointment to an employee, or you might be asked to patronize Microsoft). After two years of bliss where my wife and son shared our iPad while I remained mostly an onlooker, we woke up one day to find we had a problem. Our iPad had serious streaks of pink and blue running through it. We tried turning it off and then back on again (sometimes cable boxes and iPads respond to this admittedly non-technical approach). Our iPad screen remained a blue and pink blur. I suggested we place our iPad on eBay where we might be able to sell it to colorblind users. No response received. It was finally with great trepidation that I made an appointment with an Apple genius on Walnut Street. Earlier in this column I mentioned Apple prefers that customers make an appointment online. If you’re ever in the need of entertainment, try making an appointment by phone. As with many answering systems these days, it is difficult to get a human being on the line. Apple has perfected the business of keeping you from speaking

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

to a human being into an art form. The end result is you wind up shouting profanities into the phone at a perfectly polite robot, something for which you feel vaguely ashamed. Flash-forward to the day of our appointment. My wife and I entered the busy Apple store and wee immediately greeted by a pleasant non-genius designated employee (I wonder to myself how it must feel being one of the non-genius employees). She confirmed our appointment on her small Apple technical device. We were told a genius would be by shortly to help us. I wondered whether he or she will resemble Albert Einstein or Madame Curie, but it turns out that the genius assigned to us was a kid with a scraggly beard, baggy cargo shorts and an Apple T-shirt. He was 15 minutes late and did not apologize. Apparently, being a genius means never having to say you’re sorry. We handed him our two-year-old iPad almost apologetically because we don’t have the latest model. He sniffed at our device a bit disdainfully (there must be more pressing matters for geniuses to attend to), turned it over once or twice and agreed that the streaks are indeed blue and pink. This analytical process took all of about 30 seconds. I figured this guy really is a genius because he has solved our problem so quickly. “Can’t be fixed,” he says. “It can’t?” “Can’t. They seal the backs of these things,” he explained. Is “they” another genius or a malignant non-genius employee? “Could be water got in it. Could’ve been dropped. Could’ve been a lot things. Can’t tell because, as I said, it’s sealed.” “What now?” “I can get you a replacement for $249 plus tax or move you up to the new model for $449 plus tax.” “No other options?” “Outside the warranty, and as I said the back is sealed. Can’t be repaired.” We walked out without making a decision except that the Apple genius really seemed to be an Apple salesman of the non-genius variety. Flash-forward to a discussion with my son-in-law. “Pop,” he tells me, “I heard that if you just lightly tap the iPad on each side three times, the screen returns to normal.” “And you don’t have to wave a crucifix at it or hang a garlic wreath around your neck while doing it?” I said. Have I mentioned that I can be a smart-ass at times? My son-in-law took a hammer and gave the iPad a couple of light taps and sure enough the blue and pink streaks disappear. The screen looks as good as new. Memo to Apple: That’s real genius, and no, my son-in-law already has a good job. Incidentally, you might think about calling your geniuses something else.

Worth ‘The Drop’

Cousin Marv (James Gandolfini), left, and Bob (Tom Hardy) are two key figures in this Brooklyn-set crime thriller, which is the former actor’s final big-screen role.

■ By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

t’s not easy to make a gangster film that actually stands out (we’ll pause while you try to remember the last one you saw), but “The Drop,” a Brooklynset crime thriller directed by Michaël R. Roksam, finds ample ways to distinguish itself in a long-dusty genre. The bones of the story can be credited to “Mystic River” scribe Dennis Lehane, whose short story, “Animal Rescue,” inspired his screenplay, not to mention a new novel. The film’s key figure is Bob (a characteristically excellent Tom Hardy), who serves as a bartender at a dive that doubles as a drop point for thugs to funnel cash. More interesting than that conceit, though, is Bob’s tricky relationship to those played by the film’s ace supporting stars, including Noomi Rapace, Matthias Schoenaerts and James Gandolfini in his final big-screen role. Bob is a gentle giant, the perfect candidate to woo Nadia (Rapace) and take in a stray dog; however, no one in this movie is who they seem to be. Gandolfini’s character, a father figure to Bob, has his own agenda, while Schoenaerts’s pseudo-villain (who’s also Nadia’s ex), has so much inner fire it’s impossible to foresee his next move. Bolstered by a subplot concerning an infamous legend in these characters’ neighborhood, “The Drop” thrives on the vulnerabilities of its ostensibly rough-edged figures. Seeing Hardy and Schoenaerts go head to head isn’t a show of brawling masculinity, but rather a display of bobbing and weaving between respective

insecurities. The culmination is terribly compelling—and tremendously unexpected—and Roksam never seems as though he’s exploiting cliché twists. Having already directed Schoenaerts in the rough, yet poignant, “Bullhead,” the filmmaker seems to have developed a keen sense of how to get under the skin of beasts. He also, in making his stateside debut (like Schoenaerts, he hails from Belgium), announces he has a true Hollywood career ahead of him. Here’s hoping he’ll dust off another genre while he’s at it.

while the Garden Bounty will provide entrants the opportunity to create a stunning arrangement of seasonal flowers, vegetables, fruit and herbs. Shopping — lots of it — will keep patrons extremely busy, as Franklin Flea will feature a curated, upscale collection of more than 50 vendors selling vintage furnishings, upcycled objects, handmade items and gourmet food. “This year we are really focussing on shopping, eating and end-of-the-season deals,” Lemheney said. “This is a great time to get some end-of-the-season deals.” Youngsters will be kept busy in the PHS Kids Zone, a space filled with a variety of races, crafts and activities. Some will likely enjoy building race cars out of vegetables — wheels to be provided. Participants will be encouraged to take home their carrot or cucumber vehicles home for future playdays or healthy eating. Those who prefer painting will have the chance to decorate a coming-into-season pumpkin. The older crowd can step into the beer garden with offerings from Yards Brewing Co. while food will be available to purchase from several different food trucks. The musical entertainment begins at 11 a.m. with Jesse & the Revelator, followed by Greg Davis from 12:45 to 3 p.m. The Independence School of Rock band will perform from 3 to 4 p.m. and all-star acoustic band from 2stock closes things out from 4 to 5 p.m. The day will not be complete without talking about PHS’ marque event — the '15 Philadelphia Flower Show. Patrons will get a chance to walk the red carpet and learn about “Lights, Camera, Bloom!”. Lemheney will have his team is ready to go, including a rain-contigency plan that includes a large supply of plywood. “Planning is everything,” he said. “We are running a tight schedule. This is a walk in the park compared to The Flower Show.” SPR For more information, visit PHSonline.org. Contact Editor Bill Gelman at bgelman@southphillyreview.com or ext. 121.

ON THE SCENE

On the scene By Tom Conway Columnist

Cooking up Pennsport plans

urgeoning Pennsport will continue its culinary growth, as a new bistro is set to open next spring in the old Bell’s Delly space at 1527 S. Fourth St. Aptly named “Fourth and Cross,” this new venture is the work of industry vet Andrew Michaels, who last ran E’s Cafe in what is now B2, 1500 Passyunk Ave. With additional credits that include time at Sabrina's, Honey’s Sit & Eat, and Di Bruno Bros., his career has run the gambit of Philly’s bistro/diner scene — adding up to a sturdy confidence in the articulation and presumed execution of his new joint’s concept. “I think people just want a nice neighborhood joint they can go to with fresh seasonal food that’s just good,” Michaels said with enthusiasm. “The best roast chicken you’ll ever have, great dessert, all the bread and pretty much everything made in house.” Michaels will serve as executive chef and general manger, taking a hands-on approach in bringing Fourth and Cross to life. He names Sam’s Morning Glory, 735 S. 10th St., and Rittenhouse Square-based Parc among his inspirations in the sense that dining there assures “a solid meal every time.” Vegan and vegetarian will also have a substantial place on the menu, not to fill some sort of quota but because all diners have grown to expect sophisticated options of that ilk at any meal. Overall, the menu aims to be seasonal and local with a rotation of fresh weekly specials. Refreshingly, Michaels wants Fourth and Cross to bring back the true spirit of the restaurant special that has been pushed aside by many in recent years. “Weekly specials are something that makes it affordable for people to come into a restaurant,” he said. “Specials will also have a lot to do with conversations I am having with individual suppliers. If a farmer comes up to me and says I have three cases of cherry tomatoes, then I’m making cherry tomato preserves.” Key, of course, will be the selection of a full-time chef to work under Michaels, and he acknowledged that he has put some feelers out as well as talked some shop as

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

the search is getting under way. “It is a process that goes along with the timeline of opening a restaurant,” he explained. “It is not just who is available but who has the right aesthetic.” A Pennsport resident himself, Michaels has seen firsthand the recent influx of new energy into one of South Philly’s oldest and most architecturally colonial sections. Only a block or so off Dickinson Square, he appreciates new investment in that public space and has batted around getting his new restaurant involved in future events there. With this fresh tide has come a slew of new dining options — The Industry, Moonshine, Grindcore House — that complement already established neighborhood spots and offer creative, not complicated fare at reasonable price points. Fourth and Cross aspires to build on this trend. “It is going to be a neighborhood place serving breakfast, lunch and dinner where people could afford to come and feed their families. Put aside whatever was going on outside for 45 minutes to an hour and smile because you’re getting fed well,” Michaels said. He has learned quickly that few things drub up as much excitement and encouragement as a new restaurant in South Philly. A welcoming feeling that he has not taken for granted, Michaels has been open and honest in serving up details to neighbors. In keeping with that, outside seating will be set up only along the Cross Street side to limit early morning noise experienced by residents. “I saw it as a place to settle down and make some roots,” he recalled from his time scouting out new space. “Everybody in Pennsport has been really wonderful. I spend a lot of time sitting on my stoop and all day long it’s conversations with neighbors asking when we’re going to open. People have been so positive and supportive.” Michaels encourages neighbors and interested diners to check out their Facebook page for more info as the opening approaches. But what it really comes down to is the food, and everyone is eager to see what exactly will be on that menu. “People ask me, what kind of food are you going to serve? And I say 'good food,' and they say 'no, what kind,' and I say tasty, good food,'" he said with a laugh. “One day it could be eggs Benedict on the menu but it might have a Korean kimchi pancake underneath, or it may be chocolate pudding but it might have bits of candied orange peel in it. It could also simply be a whole fish grilled with some lemon and butter on it. That’s a good meal.” SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/food-anddrink/features.

scene in local green spaces such FDR Park, Broad Street and Pattison Avenue, and Marconi Plaza, 2700 S. Broad St., local groups and residents set the mood by hosting festivals. The Pennsylvania Horticultural Society is returning to The Navy Yard Parade Grounds, 4747 S. Broad St., for Saturday’s Fall Festival taking place rain or shine from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Highlights include the addition of the Franklin Flea, a kids zone, a preview of the 2015 Philadelphia Flower Show, music, food and much more. Sam Lemheney, PHS’ chief of shows and events, has been busy coordinating all of the details, with the location being key. “We have a great relationship with the folks at The Navy Yard,” he said of the site where the organization has its warehouse, 5201 S. 13th St. “People are seeing The Navy Yard as the next big thing.” Fall will be the central theme of Saturday’s festivities. PHS members will get to pick out free plants as part of the origination’s plant dividends program. Believe it or, this is such a popular time of year for growing that two harvest-time contests will be taking place during the earlier part of the day Garden Giants will showcase beautiful, large tomatoes, squash and other veggies

Are you addicted to Opiates, Pain Pills, or Heroin?

Here’s what people are saying about us: They fixed everything, they had open communication and the personnel were really nice. - Sarah R. on June 18, 2014 I arrived at Schafer’s needing a routine oil change, but I also needed my front driver side blinker repaired and asked them to look into why my check gas cap message was coming up. The oil change took about 20 minutes and then they began looking into the blinker. What I thought was just a bulb out was actually a fuse issue, so I’m glad I didn’t try to fix it myself. They were thorough in determining the exact issue and were able to fix the problem. Great cost, no BS and stuck to my time schedule. Couldn’t ask for anything more! - Astrid S., 06/09/2014 *for most cars

Lovash Restaurant’s

Goast’e Lovash

ailing from a huge family, Mohan Parmar developed an immediate and irrepressible interest in food by help-

Chef Mohan Parmar

Lovash Restaurant Owner: Mohan Parmar Opened: November 2000 236-38 South St. 215-925-3881 lovashrestaurant.com

ing his mother to prepare meals. A few decades removed from his early efforts, the 47-year-old is still promoting culinary curiosity as the owner of Lovash Restaurant, 236-38 South St. “I love everything about food,” the 14-year proprietor of the Queen Village establishment said. “I’ve always had an interest in carefully creating dishes that show my pride in my culture and respect for our guests’ tastes.” Born in India, the Delaware County dweller came to the United States in 1983 and spent four years at a now-defunct Old City site before assisting numerous hotels. He opened Shivnanta in ’97 and reveled in helming that Center City destination until acquiring his present space in 2000. “I originally envisioned it as having a sandwich theme,” Parmar said. “However, I soon considered

it best to give it the same identity as Shivnanta. That’s a decision I have loved watching the benefits unfold from.” Having also logged time for the prestigious Oberoi Group in his Asian homeland, the captivated cook has loved blending traditional fare with novel sustenance, with his Goast’e Lovash as an example of the latter. “It’s going to become a menu item very soon,” Parmar said of the lamb-based offering. “I like it because I think it fits in with evolving senses of what good food is all about. Americans, for example, I find are aware of many Indian foods, but this is one way to give them exposure to something different.” Abounding in nutrient-rich ingredients, the dish also reflects the joy that Parmar feels in knowing that his creations not only

Photos by Corey Carter

show reverence for his heritage but awareness of food’s health benefits. “I want everyone to be comfortable,” the businessman, who recently secured a liquor license, said. “I believe the Goast’e Lovash fits with that thinking.”

Annual Public Notice of Special Education Services and Programs, Services for Gifted Students, and Services for Protected Handicapped Students Notice to PareNts

According to state and federal special education regulations, annual public notice to parents of children who reside within a school district is required regarding The Philadelphia Public Schools and the Philadelphia Intermediate Unit (IU26) provide special education and related services to resident children with disabilities who are ages three through twenty-one. The purpose of this notice is to describe (1) the types of disabilities that might qualify the child for such programs and services, (2) the special education program and related services that are available, (3) the process by which the public schools screen and evaluate such students to determine eligibility, and (4) the special rights that pertain to such children and their parents or legal guardians.

cHiLDreN serVeD iN sPeciaL eDUcatioN ProGraMs

Special education services are available to children who have one or more of the following physical or mental disabilities: • autism • deaf/blindness • emotional disturbance • hearing impairment, including deafness • mental retardation • multiple disabilities • orthopedic impairment • other health impairment • specific learning disability • speech or language impairment • traumatic brain injury; and • visual impairment, including blindness • developmental delay (in the case of a preschool child)

DescriPtioN oF sPeciaL eDUcatioN ProGraMs

The Public Schools/IU26 provide appropriate special education programs and related services that are: • provided at no cost to parents; • provided under the authority of a school entity, directly, by referral or by contract; • individualized to meet the educational needs of the child; • reasonably calculated to yield meaningful educational benefit and progress and designed to conform to an Individual Education Program. Special education is designed to meet the needs of each eligible student, including specifically designed instruction conducted in the classroom, home, community settings, hospitals, institutions and other settings. Related services are available to students include transportation, corrective and other supportive services that help an eligible student benefit from special education. Examples include: speech pathology and audiology, psychological services, physical and occupational therapy, social work services, school health services, medical services for diagnosis or evaluation, parent counseling and education, recreation counseling services, rehabilitation counseling services and assistive technology services.

reFerraL oF cHiLDreN For screeNiNG aND eVaLUatioN

The Public Schools/IU26 has procedures to identify children needing special education. Those procedures are “screening” and “evaluation.” If a disability is suspected, teachers, other school personnel or parents may refer a child for screening and/or evaluation. Parents suspecting that a child may have a disability and need special education can request a screening or evaluation at any time by contacting their school principal. Screening activities include: reviewing immediately available data sources such as health records, parent interview and history; functional vision and hearing evaluations; determining the student’s response to attempted remediation; and speech and language screenings are completed on request. If the screening leads to a recommendation for evaluation, the evaluation team will conduct the evaluations. No evaluations may be conducted without written parental permission. Consult your school counselor for further information. State and federal law affords many rights and protections to children with disabilities and their parents. A summary of this rights and protections follows. Interested persons may obtain a complete written summary of the rights and protections afforded by the law, together with information about free of low cost legal services and advice, by contacting the special education coordinator or principal of the local public school.

riGHts aND ProtectioNs Prior Written Notice: The public school must notify you in writing whenever it proposes to initiate or to change the identification, evaluation, educational program or place-

ment of a child or whenever it refuses to initiate or make a change in identification, evaluation, educational program, or placement requested by a parent. Such notice must be accompanied by a written description of the reasons for the proposal or refusal, the options considered, if any, and the reason why such options were rejected. consent: The public school cannot proceed with an evaluation or with the initial provision of special education and related services without the written consent of the parent. A public school may not seek a hearing to override the refusal of a parental consent to an initial placement in special education. A public school may override the lack of consent for an initial evaluation by requesting the approval of an impartial hearing officer of judge following a hearing. If the parent fails to respond to a written request for permission to revaluate, however, the public school may proceed the proposed revaluation without consent. Protection in evaluation Procedure: Evaluations to determine eligibility and current need for special education and related services must be administered in a manner that is free of racial, cultural, or linguistic bias. Evaluations cannot consist of a single test or assessment and testing must be a valid measure of the psychological, social, emotional or other learning characteristic or behavior that the school is using it to measure. Testing and assessment must be administered in accordance with professional standards and the criteria established by the publisher. It must be administered in the native language of the child. confidentiality: The records and documents that are part of the evaluation and screening process are confidential and protected under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). School districts, intermediate units, and charter schools maintain records concerning all children enrolled in the school, including students with disabilities. All records are maintained in the strictest confidentiality. Your consent, or consent of an eligible child who has reached the age of majority under State law, must be obtained before personally identifiable information is released, except as permitted under FERPA. The age of majority in Pennsylvania is 21. Each participating agency must protect the confidentiality of personally identifiable information at collection, storage, disclosure, and destruction stages. One official at each participating agency must assume responsibility for ensuring the confidentiality of any personally identifiable information. Each participating agency must maintain, for public inspection, a current listing of the names and positions of those employees who have access to personally identifiable information. For additional information related to student records, the parent can refer to FERPA. This notice is only a summary of the Special Education services, evaluation and screening activities, and rights and protections pertaining to children with disabilities, children thought to be disabled, and their parents.

Joseph Myers talks

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

The hit parade

A renowned baseball coach recently opened an already thriving Grays Ferry-situated academy. ■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

rowing up as a fan of the New York Yankees, Kevin Schneider fostered fascination with classy competitors such as Derek Jeter, Don Mattingly, Paul O’Neill and Bernie Williams. Devising his demeanor to match that of the Bronx Bombers’ brand and to promote promising talent, the resident of the 700 block of Mountain Street is enjoying another actualized element of his diamond dream as the founder and owner of the Bubba Baseball Academy, 1401 S. 25th St. “I’m very confident in my ability to connect with everyone who comes here,” the 30-year-old said Tuesday at the Grays Ferry location, which he opened Sept. 1. “Through teaching players and teams, I want to make a real impact and truly connect with them not just by analyzing their skills but by addressing their mental and emotional preparation, too.” The East Passyunk Crossing dweller had been pondering securing quarters for three years, with his search intensifying last fall. He desired a South Philly spot and when learning of a space’s proximity to McNichol Field, 25th and Moore streets, where he just completed his first season helming the squad from Ss. NeumannGoretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., who captured the Catholic League and Class AA City titles, he knew his search would prove swift. “I fell in love with South Philly’s people right away,” the Lawrenceville, N.J. native said of his numerous neighbors. “With regards to baseball, they get that kids want strong relationships with adults who understand tangibles and intangibles.” In naming the 5,800-square-foot facility, Schneider honored his English Bulldog Bubba, who died in November. Seeing his fallen friend’s breed as a symbol of determination, devotion and toughness, he has wanted to infuse himself and his charges with as much mental might as possible. That philosophy certainly proved profitable in the spring, as the Saints registered a 6-1 parochial playoff mark, including five elimination game victories, to capture their East Passyunk Crossing school’s fourth league crown in the last six years, and is likewise generating jubilation among attendees from the Delaware Valley

Kevin Schneider coached the Neumann-Goretti Saints to the Catholic League and Class AA City titles in the spring. His two-week-old academy is drawing youngsters with similar desires for achievement. P h o t o b y R i c h a r d Ba r n e s

Youth Athletic Association, 2840 S. 18th St., and Garden State denizens who gladly make trips to the location. “We needed to make some modifications, and we’re proud because everything’s new,” Schneider said. “We’re definitely favoring quality over quantity.” The ambitious individual aspires to produce champions in many senses of the word and has benefited from the input of such figures as Neumann-Goretti alumni Mark Donato, Nicky Nardini and Michael Riverso and pitching coach Joe Messina to solidify his instructional aims. A “baseball junkie,” Schneider, whose academy website declares “In order to teach ’em, ya gotta be able to reach ’em,” wants to touch even more communities, yet, just as he learned in becoming a productive pitcher

during his high school and college careers, patience wins the day. “I’m not going to rush anything because I really want anyone who comes here to develop trust,” he said. “For some people, money is the main motivator, but, for me, it’s seeing kids fall for this game as hard as I have.” THE YOUNGEST OF three boys, including John Schneider, who played in the Toronto Blue Jays system and serves as manager of the American League East club’s Vancouver-based minor league outfit, the budding businessman enjoyed basketball and baseball as a boy, but the latter became his passion based on sheer respect for the game and its composed practitioners and his assessment of his talent.

PRO SPORTS at southphillyreview.com/blogs.php “Of course it helps to be physically strong, but I like emphasizing being smart, too,” Schneider said of tutelage received and given. “I knew pretty early on that there would be times during my baseball journey where I’d need to rely on way more than my body.” A “big-game guy” for every team he joined, the right-hander came to prominence as a Monmouth University enrollee. Learning to make sidearm deliveries after breaking his growth plate, he served as the New Jersey club’s closer his final two years and earned many plaudits, including first-team New Jersey Collegiate Baseball Association honors, Fireman of the Year honors and National College Baseball Writers Association Stopper of the Year watchlist distinction. “I would say I started coaching indirectly while at Monmouth because I had a process and an understanding of how to get better,” Schneider said. His ambition aligned him with former Phillie and fellow New Jerseyite Dave Gallagher at the latter’s eponymous North Trenton-situated baseball academy and helped him to score director duties for the South Jersey-based Tri-State Arsenal. The second gig, through which he handled promotion, recruitment and scheduling, bred even more reverence for youths’ immersion into the sport and definitely put him on Neumann-Goretti’s radar. “It’s one thing to say you really have a kid’s best interest at heart, but it’s a whole other story to be able to back that up,” Schneider said of his academy and his tenure with the Saints, for whom he expects even more greatness as their already strong ties with him grow. “Many places and people talk a good game, but it really comes down to strengthening what’s already strong within these kids.” Well aware of the “hard-nosed physicality” that his pursuit can often involve, the coach and proprietor knows that no matter one’s pedigree, showing heart will never hurt. “This is my obsession,” Schneider said. “I’m thrilled that others share it and want to work just as hard to become better.” SPR Visit bubbabaseball.org.

prayer to the holy spirit

Holy Spirit, You who make me see everything and who shows me the way to reach my ideals, You who give me the divine gift to forgive and forget the wrong that is done to me and You, who are in all the instances of my life with me, I, in this short dialogue want to thank you for everything and affirm once more that I never want to be separated from you no matter how great the material desires may be. I want to be with you and my loved ones in your perpetual glory. AMEN. Thank You for your love towards me and my loved ones. Pray this prayer three consecutive days straight without asking for your wish. After the third day your wish will be granted. Promise to publish your dialogue as soon as your favor has been granted.
