In a closely-watched gubernatioral race, Tom Wolf beat Republican incumbent Tom Corbett by 300,000 votes. ■ By Bill Chenevert R e v i e w S ta f f W r i t e r

ennsylvania has a new governor, and his name is Tom Wolf, a Democrat from York, Pa., who will take ofﬁce in January of 2015. With approximately 55 percent of Pennsylvania’s popular vote (nearly 1.9 million votes), Wolf topped Republican incumbent Tom Corbett’s 45 percent (just shy of 1.6 million votes). Of course, Philadelphia had a great deal to do with that victory, and it’s not an insignificant triumph. Nationally, Republican gubernatorial can-

didates fared very well, but Pennsylvania has proven an anomaly. In Philadelphia County, with 97.57 percent of precincts reporting as of press time, almost 88 percent of voters went for Wolf, with about 12 percent voting for the GOP candidate (Wolf claimed more than 325,000 votes to Corbett’s 44,000). GOP gubernatorial candidates came out on top in Kansas, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, Wisconsin, Georgia, Iowa, Ohio and Maine. Wolf himself is a 65-year-old graduate of Dartmouth College and the University of London, and completed a Ph.D. at the Massachusetts Institute

of Technology. He is the chairman of The Wolf Industry, Inc., a building-product company that specializes in kitchen cabinetry, and previously had served as an Ed Rendell-nominated Secretary of Revenue of Pennsylvania. “Wolf brings a fresh perspective since he’s never been in an elected position before,” Diane Bowman, the Deputy Executive Director of the PA Democratic Party, said yesterday. “We set history again and it came out of Central PA,” she added, noting the significance of a Democratic candidate dethroning a GOP incumbent.

Word on the Street Do you think it’s right that stores have been putting up signs forbidding wearing hoodies inside?

“If you’re going to wear a hoodie, let it be cold out. Don’t wear one at night, or cover your face. If they ask you to remove it, remove it.” Harry Charles, Broad Street and Snyder Avenue

“I don’t blame them at all. There’s too many robberies. Not only the stores, you see people walking down the street in hoodies, you get scared.” Michelle Markley, Sixth Street and Oregon Avenue

To the Editor: [Staff Writer] Bill [Chenevert], nice article on the gentrification of South Philly (“The gentrification of South Philly,” Oct. 30). I recently bought a new home in Point Breeze and see the issues on both sides. I also hear people repeatedly mentioning “affordable housing.” I think it would be interesting to do a follow-up article on affordable housing and what the city is building/doing and if it is truly affordable housing, allowing residents of Point Breeze to stay in Point Breeze. From what I gather, it is not. New affordable houses were built on the 1600 block of Federal Street, and one if not two were “bought by college students,” one of the parents is a doctor and the house has not been lived in for years. There are paper bags covering the windows. I see many of these homes bought by those looking to beat the system, get a nice new two- or three-story home and reap the rewards 10 years down the road when the house goes up in

Afforded the luxury value to market value, not going to those who truly need it, those who live in Point Breeze. Do some digging; there are already articles out there about it. Couldn’t the city be doing something different to develop/build affordable housing that is truly affordable housing? Keep up the great articles!! Aaron Harrington South Philadelphia

the local government. They always blame someone else before taking responsibility for their own misgivings. As far as the students who have been protesting goes, they should use their energy for studying. Oh to go back to my days in the 1940s and ’50s when these situations did not exist!

Misplaced majesty? “Vincent, my point was that [Christopher] Columbus slaughtered friendly Indians who tried to help him (“The shipping news,” Oct. 30). It’s a matter of historical fact. We Italian-Americans have many more qualified heroes to honor, or we can use the day to celebrate our overall accomplishments in America, which are numerous, as you know. What Columbus accomplished was tainted significantly by how he treated the people already living here.” Tom Cardella via southphillyreview.com

“For clarification to TonyG, I did not use the words “violently shift.” That was the reporter’s characterization of the change. My point is that when a neighborhood begins to improve, the long-time residents should experience the benefits, rather than be pushed out. When I say “Not again,” I mean they should not experience yet another wave of discrimination and lose yet another opportunity to live in an economically diverse neighborhood. Neighbhorhood revitalization is a good thing that can be used to help decrease economic segregation and attack inequality.” Beth McConnell

POLICE REPORT

Creamy badness As many as six men robbed a male of cash and facial creams in Grays Ferry. ■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

t 10 p.m. Sunday, the complainant was unloading his vehicle on the 1600 block of South 31st Street when a group of five to six unknown individuals approached him, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. One figure produced a handgun, with the others searching their target, from whom they took a wallet and $250. The offenders also removed from his vehicle a box and a bag that contained facial creams valued at approximately $1,000. He described all the offenders as black, 16 to 20 years old and wearing black hoodies. No further descriptions were available as of press time. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Savage behavior

Water damage An impostor scammed a pair of older

adults out of cash and jewelry in Lower Moyamensing. At approximately 2 p.m. Oct. 25, the complainant and his wife observed an unknown male knocking on the door of their 2500-block-of-South-IsemingerStreet home, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The figure identified himself as an employee of J&G Construction, a subcontractor for the Philadelphia Water Department. The homeowner let the man in after hearing the stranger needed to check the residence’s water supply for contamination and led him to the basement, where the phony worker ran water for approximately 20 minutes. The fake hire told the husband to remain in the space and ventured upstairs to instruct the wife to run water in the kitchen, Tolliver said. The man left the basement after 10 minutes and after speaking with his partner, he realized the offender was no longer in the house. Heading to the second floor, he observed water running in their bathtub and realized a scam had occurred. He checked his abode and noticed $900 missing from a dresser and $5,000 in jewelry gone from a box. The unfortunate older adult, who noted the offender made and received several cell phone calls while in the residence, dressed like a construction worker yet failed to produce a credential, described the intruder as white, in his mid 20s and thin; having facial scruff and an olive complexion; and wearing a red T-shirt and tan baseball cap.

Police are searching for two men who compromised operations at a Whitman establishment. At 2:47 a.m. Tuesday, authorities responded to a burglary alarm sounding at Savage Services, 52 E. Oregon Ave., where they discovered that someone had cut the fence surrounding the business and had also broken an office trailer window, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Processing the scene, detectives observed video footage of two individuals entering the property and gaining access to the trailer after throwing an object at the window. They exited after an audible alarm became activated and fled the location, with footage last catching them heading onto nearby railroad tracks. The owner believes the men made off with nothing. The video, which was not available as of press time, depicts two white men, with the first being between 18 and 30 years old and wearing a gray hoodie with writing on the front and light pants and the second being 18 to 25 years old and wearing a black jacket with gray shoulders and dark pants.

Young food givers hungry to help A Girard Estate school hosted a nutrition-based celebration. ■ By Christopher Isaac Review Intern

On Monday, Nutritional Development Services of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia celebrated acquiring donations of nearly 60,000 pounds of food in the completion of their 2014 Peanut Butter and Jelly Drive. Students from St. Monica School, 2500 S. 16th St., gathered to represent one of the sixty schools that participated in the drive, with around two dozen students helping to pack their institution’s contributions up to be taken to those in need. “The kids have such big hearts,” Anne Ayella, Assistant Director at Nutritional Development Services said. “When you share the stories about real life people who will be helped, they’re really touched. That spirit of service stays with them their whole lives.” Through the contributions of the enrollees at the Girard Estate-based site and the other 59 participating schools, Nutritional Development Services plans to distribute

St. Monica School learners aided an initiative that brought in nearly 30 tons of food. P h o t o b y R i c h a r d Ba r n e s

the provisions across 40 food cupboards and soup kitchens. The work will benefit not only the Philadelphia region, but also food cupboards in Montgomery, Bucks, Chester and Delaware counties. As for why the kids were donating peanut butter and jelly in particular, Ayella said, “It doesn’t have to be refrigerated, it can last a long time, so it’s probably the food cupboards favorite food to get.”

Enviable honor

While donations of any sort are appreciated, the cupboards particularly like receiving healthy, nonperishable foods that most people enjoy. As the children gathered up the food in boxes, Ayella reminded them of all the different people who would benefit from their work. “We’re going to take a minute to remember everybody in our area who maybe is

worried about food today,” she said. “Maybe somebody lost their job, maybe somebody’s sick, getting out of the hospital or they had a fire.” Nutritional Development Services and St. Monica’s don’t want this to be a one time act of charity for the students, hoping the drive fosters a giving spirit in the children. “At St. Monica’s, we try to stress outreach to the poor and those who are in need,” Principal Barbara Inforzato said of the site’s allegiance to Christian tenets. “So we try to encourage the children to remember others, and they are always so very generous in their response no matter what kind of drive we have.” St. Monica’s works in collaboration with the entity around the year for other food gathering missions as well. Nutritional Development Services began as a program in 1971 to serve hot lunches for inner city schools, but has expanded in its operations since then and recently marked its 40th anniversary as an agency of the Archdiocese. As the car bearing St. Monica’s donations drove away, and the kids began to return to class, Ayella commented on the core of the drive’s purpose, saying, “In our world, there’s a lot of people who worry about food, and those of us who don’t have to worry about it work hard to help in whatever way we can.” SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/news/features.

ELECTION continued from page 1 Bowman says it’s Wolf’s background in fiscal matters that make him well-suited to serve as governor. “[Wolf] is in the standpoint of a businessman. You can’t go into your red and you have to worry about your credit,” she said, later adding “I think it’s a great message for the state of Pennsylvania, and I think he’s going to do well.” Wolf supporters showed solidarity on election day outside of Queen Village’s Famous 4th Street Delicatessen, 700 S. Fourth St., where politicos, union hands and curious locals gathered to show support for the Democratic newcomer. One eager Dem named Stewart Melrose was eager to share a sort of fight song he’d composed: “Well Halloween came early and is stayin’ a bit late / With Gov. Corbett and his big oil gang playing tricks ‘til election date. / So, if you want more tricks, then Corbett’s gang are your picks, / But if you want a real honest treat, then Wolf and his Democratic team can’t be beat!” Ellen Kaplan has been the policy director of the Committee of Seventy, a bi-partisan elections watchdog organization that’s over a century old. She shared some interesting facts. “I was just looking at voter registration stats. For this election… there are a little over 1,000,000 voters and 800,000 of them are Democrats,” she said. She noted that City Council’s party affiliations are overwhelmingly Democratic, so is the District Attorney, the sheriff, the comptroller and the register of wills. “These are all Dems,” Kaplan said. “That just tells you something about this town.” WITH THIS ELECTION being a mid-term one lacking a senatorial or presidential candi-

date, some Democratic organizers were worried that turnout would be low. And it was. Considering there are nearly one million registered voters in Philadelphia, and yet there weren’t even 400,000 votes cast in the gubernatorial race, the cause for concern seems justified. Before Tuesday’s election, Stephen St. Vincent, Young Involved Philadelphia (YIP)’s Advocacy vice-chair, said “From what I’ve seen in the news [the Governor race] has been decided for quite some time. It’s just going to be an issue of turnout.” YIP does outreach to engage millennial voters and inform young citizens about the important issues, candidates and getting the vote out. “In 2010 it was not good. The Millennial turnout was not there. But in ’12, for the Obama [re-]election, millennial turnout was through the roof,” St. Vincent ex-

plained. He also helped break down the three ballot measures, which are essentially amendments to the Philadelphia Home Rule Charter that was established in 1951, that all passed yesterday. The first officially established an Office of Sustainability, an office Mayor Nutter’s administration created in 2008, rendering a City Hall-led effort to go green permanent (Yes – 66 percent, no – 34 percent). The second addressed prisons, and would establish a new Department of Prisons by separating prison maintenance from the Department of Human Services (Yes – 65 percent, no – 35 percent). And lastly, a City bond question of should the City borrow a little more than $137 million for things like transit, streets, municipal buildings and parks and economic development (Yes – 66 percent, no – 34 percent). An average of 231,250 votes were cast for

each ballot measure. “You’ll note that every election there are ballot questions of ‘Should the Charter be amended to A,B and C,” Kaplan said. “We just chip away at this 60-year-old charter, and eventually we’ll get it right. Think of it as a rearranging and restructuring of the City’s bureaucratic affairs. Of note in South Philly, 1st District Congressman Rep. Robert Brady (D) won big against Megan Rath with nearly 85 percent of the total votes (almost 100,000). Many other races went uncontested and were essentially pre-established by last year’s primaries. Also, state Rep. and South Philadelphia native Jordan Harris, representing the 186th Legislative District, ran unopposed. The big issues, then, were primarily the Governor vote and the ballot questions. And of course, the way certain national issues were highlighted by the mid-term ballots: Alaska, South Dakota, Arkansas and Nebraska approved minimum wage hikes; Washington State tightened restrictions on access to guns with mandatory background checks; California reduced sentencing for non-violent crimes; and Alaska, Oregon and the District of Columbia legalized marijuana. Will any of this effect the ’15 mayoral race? Maybe a little. “Maybe in terms of who are going to be the major political players that have influence on Philadelphia politics in general,” St. Vincent said. As for the big gubernatorial election, Bowman said from Harrisburg, maybe some of it had to do with the “perfect weather. It was textbook, to be honest with you,” adding “[Wolf] did a great job, the ground crew did a great job, the campaign did a great job. Everything was moving in the right direction.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Bill Chenevert at bchenevert@southphillyreview.com or ext. 117. Comment at southphillyreview.com/news/features.

A South of South thespian is displaying cerebral and emotional vigor as one of literature’s most crestfallen characters.

hile many performers foolishly focus on transforming text into an ostentatious display of their talent, Ed Swidey feels his ilk can forge formidable advances by “acting on the line” and refusing to “argue with the play.” Through Sunday, the South of South denizen will promote piety to the page as Willy Loman in EgoPo Classic Theater’s “Death of a Salesman.” “It is the principal male part in American theater,” the 41-yearold said of portraying the Pulitzer Prize- and Tony Award-winning masterpiece’s titular character. “There has to be authenticity when taking on the role because of that, and because of my intensity and the aura of the script, I’ve worked to be true to what’s in front of me.” The thoughtful thespian is tackling the titanic endeavor under the direction of EgoPo’s artistic director and East Passyunk Crossing dweller Lane Savadove. The initial element of the company’s American Giants Festival, the staging coincides with the upcoming 100th birthday celebration for playwright Arthur Miller. “I admire Lane for being so interested in setting a standard with EgoPo, and I’ve wanted to deliver for him and the overall work,” Swidey said. “It’s been so rewarding to grow into a role that can be quite scary to handle.” Noting that companies have often called on older figures to play the 63-year-old downtrodden peddler, the actor acknowledged a bit of unease during his preparation but revealed that dissipated once the show enjoyed its Latvian Society of Philadelphia-situated debut last month. Aside from pondering the piece’s immense status as a reflection of decline and decay, he came to his task with a personal connection to its components.

LIFESTYLES “My father was a salesman, so there’s definitely an awareness of what Willy experienced,” Swidey said. “When you also take a look at the familial themes and the searches for meaning that Miller explores, in many ways, there’s an identification with this play that is beyond almost anything else that I can think of, aside from a few children-centered works.” Such distinction could cause conundrums if one makes the assignment an opportunity to commandeer the stage, but Swidey stated “Death of a Salesman” has earned merit as a “really, really great play where everything is on the page.” Still needing to know how to channel the languishing Loman effectively, he has placed great stock not only in his theatrical training but in his accumulated wisdom as a communicator. “I see acting on the line as being everything, especially for this job,” Swidey, eager to revisit the role years from now, said. “If you can mean what you say and mean it fully, you’re on a good path. Whenever we express ourselves, we’re looking to alter or affirm what people are thinking, and audiences are keen on that. You have to be honest because they’ll spot self-consciousness very easily.” ACKNOWLEDGING NERVOUS MOMENTS no mat-

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

ter the familiarity with a script or the masterminds behind its production, Swidey still has come a long way from being “an intensely shy kid” hailing from Somerset, Mass. Originally believing he would address texts as an English teacher rather than give homage to them as an actor, he enrolled at Boston College, a location that would banish his bashfulness. “I didn’t have much of a solid theater background, even with regards to reading it, but that wasn’t much of a hindrance,” the now-highly erudite individual said, noting he lacked a trace of apprehension on his inaugural audition. Minus any momentous theatrical inclination, he found the field offered “an open world,” with a love affair with novelty developing by the time he landed his first role. Surprising himself and his family, especially his patriarch, with his affinity for being in front of an audience, Swidey desired more of that sense of accomplishment and engrossed himself in his undergraduate institution’s enhancement, benefiting from fantastic directors in doing so. Though graduate schools passed on admitting him, he loved their feedback and pursued professional prowess in New York City and Los Angeles. “I was adding life experience, and that’s

always beneficial,” Swidey said. “I knew I wanted to go to graduate school, too, though.” Returning East, he enrolled at the University of Delaware in 2004, yearning for an even more engrossing curriculum, a craving that his instructors tirelessly sated. Hearing the sentiment that one requires 20 years to become a full-fledged actor, he loved the prospect of evolving as a performer and has found focusing on his quest in Philadelphia a wonderful endeavor. “There’s an active effort to see merit here,” Swidey, who moved to South of South from Center City four years ago, said. “Philadelphia is a bit of an underdog city, so there’s a huge commitment to what goes on stage and a healthier brand of competition than what you’d find in New York or L.A.” The actor has established his best relationships with EgoPo and the Wilma Theater, the latter endowing him with employment in its education program, a creative complement to the Massachusetts-based summer camp that he has overseen for four years. As Savadove gave him his first big part in ’09’s “Endgame,” Swidey especially relishes chances to support EgoPo, classifying it as “a pioneer” among like-

wise progressive companies. “I’m thrilled to be doing this play for them because it’s such a big piece of the canon,” he said of the work that enjoyed its first staging in Philadelphia in 1949. “Plus, everyone involved is so committed, too.” With an acting resumé that includes numerous dramatic turns, Swidey can count cherishing levity among his talents, too, as he penned “The mEEp pROjectT” for the Simpatico Theatre Project in 2012, describing his all-ages fantasy as “a helluva lot of fun to make.” He plans to continue to assist children with their writing in the spring when he will perform in the Wilma’s offerings of “Hamlet” and “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead” and is enjoying domestic bliss with girlfriend and fellow theater professional Cindy Spitko and their cats, Alfie and Winky. “I’m living a pretty fortunate life,” Swidey said. “Just like with my career, I’m appreciative for all the love and support.” SPR For tickets, call 267-273-1414, or visit egopo.org.

LIFESTYLES

Cardella

By Tom Cardella Columnist

Death be not proud

ete had been a brave cop. He had stared down death many times. The Philadelphia Police Department doesn’t award someone with 35 commendations for bravery without reason. Pete hated hospitals, didn’t even like to visit and used to tell the story that one time as a teenager, he went to the hospital with a pain in his side. During the examination, he heard the words “possible appendicitis” and startled the doctor by immediately running out of the hospital never to return. He vowed never to die in a hospital bed and thought he could select how he would die. He believed that as a policeman, he would one day bang down a door and meet his fate quickly in a hail of bullets. He kept in shape by lifting weights at a local gym, disdained being called “Pop” later in life, drank protein shakes and read Bob Hoffman’s health magazines faithfully. And then one day, he found out that mortality was gaining on him. Pete was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in June 1983. He was 66 years old. He tried to figure out how he could have gotten the disease. It was as if he were personally offended by getting sick. He had always viewed illness as a sign of weakness. When his kids sometimes came down with childhood ailments, he would exclaim to his wife, “These kids are made of (excrement)!” He racked his brain for a reason he, of all people, should have come down with what he called “blood cancer.” He blamed the time long ago, when as a detective on assignment, he had been required to handle some radioactive material at the airport. Pete had often talked about the incident, how he had been required to shower and change his clothes after handling the substance. The story had become legend in his mind, and now he was sure that years later, the result was this crappy disease. Pete’s life had not gotten any easier in the last couple of decades. His wife suffered from manic depression, an illness that had finally forced him to quit his beloved police department a good ten years before time to take care of her. It had been tough to adjust to life without a badge. He became a runner in a Center City law firm, made his own hours and went in early to open the office and sort the mail so he could be at home with Eleanor during the afternoon. Now that he himself was sick, life was about to

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

become even more difficult. As she was suffering from bipolar illness, Eleanor had emotional reactions that were not directly tied to events happening at the moment in her life. Her mood swings were based on her illness, not her husband’s. There were times when she could seem almost cruel in dismissing the seriousness of Pete’s disease. She couldn’t understand why this once brave husband of hers would unaccountably break down crying. Once she told her son, “I can’t stand to see a man cry.” At first, Pete responded well to his treatments at Albert Einstein Hospital. He looked the picture of health; his outlook upbeat. He continued to clean the house and cook food for his wife when she went into one of her extended depressed states. His son visited him before going to the Jersey Shore for Labor Day Weekend and found him huddled over a frying pan preparing breakfast for himself and his wife. But in only three short days, the outlook changed. Pete’s decline was rapid. He no longer was chatty when his son took him to the hospital for treatments. Soon his son hardly recognized the frail, stoop-shouldered man whom he had to help walk. There was nothing that medicine could do anymore for Pete. At home, he lay huddled on the old blue couch rarely moving except to be helped upstairs to go to the bathroom. “He cries whenever he looks in the mirror,” his wife said. The last time his son saw him at home was in the middle of the ’84 World Series between the San Diego Padres and the Detroit Tigers. Pete was not normally a big baseball fan, but he loved to watch the Fall Classic with his wife and son. The living room was dimly lit, and the television set was off. His father hardly ate these days, but he mentioned to his son that he had a “woolie” ( a slang term used for what westerners would call a “hankering”). He wanted orange soda and a hamburger. His son was quickly out the door and back with a large bottle of Frank’s Orange Soda (made with real juice, it said on the label) and a hamburger with fried onions. His father took one bite of the sandwich and couldn’t eat it. “Put on the World Series,” Pete said in a barely audible voice. And for the remaining hour, his father feigned interest in the game, easily fooling his son looking for any reason for optimism. His mother later told him that he wanted the TV turned off as soon as his son left. It is true Pete died in a hospital bed just like most do. But “Death be not proud”; not even you could diminish the heroic life you ended. The one World Series his son doesn’t remember at all is the ’84 edition.

Realms of possibility

Father Vito Cornelius (Ian Holm), Korben Dallas (Bruce Willis) and Leeloo (Milla Jovovich) barely have a moment of peace in 1997’s “The Fifth Element.”

■ By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

hristopher Nolan’s much-anticipated “Interstellar” hits theaters this weekend, but don’t forget about these other intergalactic epics.

The Fifth Element (1997) Luc Besson doesn’t normally travel to the far reaches for his action adventures, but many were pleased he did for this Bruce Willis-led cult hit, which knows precisely how to employ Milla Jovovich as a dangerous damsel and Gary Oldman as a fashionably gonzo villain. Moreover, if desiring space opera, there aren’t many better ways to get it than with Maïwenn Besco’s literally operatic performance as the tentacled Diva Plavalaguna. Starship Troopers (1997) Wildly underrated, Paul Verhoeven’s outer-space satire is epically enjoyable trash, casting soap actors like Denise Richards and Patrick Muldoon alongside “bug” aliens that leave darkly funny, splatterific messes in their wake. A SciFi Channel film that thankfully made it to the big screen, the movie is another reflection of its maker’s tricky lowbrow auteurism, which he also displays in “Showgirls,” another film for the misunderstood canon. Aliens (1986) A war film set in space, James Cameron’s “Alien” sequel is a movie whose pulse never slows, shifting from the mounting of a marine army to an all-out battle with those slithery creatures that birth their young via human hosts. Of course, the ultimate showdown involves the two dominant females of two dominant species, making “Aliens” one of cinema’s unlikely feminist landmarks.

Gravity (2013) Alfonso Cuarón’s virtuoso space saga is firstly a great work of juxtaposition: stateof-the-art in terms of technical prowess and visual effects, yet markedly economical in regard to story and character. The two-person plot (starring Sandra Bullock and George Clooney) hardly fills the movie’s vast canvas of starry blackness, yet it gives the director room to explore our most primal characteristics. The script isn’t perfect, but the ultimate impact of “Gravity” is close to it. 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

“2001: A Space Odyssey” ﬁnds its characters facing numerous challenges, including ones from the computer HAL 9000.

It’s beyond cliché at this point to include “2001” on a list of great space films; however, one cannot deny the grandeur of Stanley Kubrick’s magnum opus. Beyond including the most famous jump cut of all time (a caveman’s bone throw encompasses the history of humankind), this picturesque, neon enigma is a paradigm of inventive technique. That it is so resolutely avant garde and still so widely beloved is a testament to its visceral power. SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/arts-andentertainment/movies.

Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery at Jefferson “As a Certified Nursing Assistant, I spend my days helping others. But when I hit 405 pounds, I knew it was time to help myself. That’s why I decided on weight-loss surgery at Jefferson. Their experts put me at ease right away, and the surgery was minimally invasive, so I was able to be back with my patients in no time. Since then, I’ve lost half my weight. And the back pain, the type 2 diabetes and high cholesterol I used to have? I’m not carrying that around with me, either.” Velour had a sleeve gastrectomy, a laparoscopic procedure with short recovery times and an excellent record of success.

RECIPE

All’s fare

Maureen’s Giambotta

Birds of a feather

re you tired of consuming soups on cool days and finding yourself “stewing” over what can serve as an alternative to fending off increasingly frigid feelings? Owing to her love for Italian cuisine, Maureen Fratantoni offers a solution with her Giambotta. Like many locals, the resident of the 1900 block of South 11th Street adores the vegetable stew, which she playfully noted many South Philadelphians pronounce as “Jumbutt.” No matter how people articulate its name, they will all agree on its deliciousness. The East Passyunk Crossing-located submitter added she likes to eat it with a piece of Italian or French bread. While nothing is wrong with seeing soup as a super selection as fall unfolds, stew can prove equally stupendous. SPR

INGREDIENTS:

nly three weeks remain until Thanksgiving Day, and Vanilya Bakery, 1611 E. Passyunk Ave., is looking to help residents appreciative for their blessings with Nov. 18’s four-course Turducken Dinner Demo. Registrants for the 7-to-9:30 p.m. feast will receive tutelage from Chef Marc Noll for $75, which includes wine service. Register in advance by visiting the bakery, or by sending an e-mail to bonnie@vanilyabakery. com. SPR

DIRECTIONS:

4 yellow squash, peeled and sliced. 1 cup of jarred red roasted peppers 1 small onion, chopped 1 teaspoon of dried parsley 4 small red bliss potatoes, diced with skin on 4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil 1 28-ounce can of tomato sauce

Place the extra virgin olive oil in the bottom of a skillet. Sauté the sliced squash and onion in the skillet until slightly softened. Add the tomato sauce, a half cup of water and the peppers. Microwave the potatoes for 10 minutes, then incorporate them, along with the dried parsley. Simmer for about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the squash is softened and ﬂavors develop.

a one-pot wonder made with sauerkraut, fresh and smoked pork, white wine, caraway and juniper berries and is always served with boiled potatoes. It is a lusty, hearty, homestyle dish I make at my residence. Oh, mon Dieu! Woolsey presented us with a deconstructed choucroutte on a rectangular dish. He placed the ingredients in a line like soldiers waiting to march. There was a small mound of sauerkraut, pork shoulder, some slab bacon, which was difficult to slice, a small piece of bratwurst, a piece of black pudding and a potato. Oh, and some mustard, which is always served with choucroutte. Because it was deconstructed, I longed for the pleasurable experience of eating choucroutte. I could not decide between the braised lamb or the braised rabbit. I ordered the lamb, which was way too salty and also cold. A gentleman, whom I assumed is the manager of La Peg, brought me a steaming bowl of tender braised rabbit ($11) mixed with chopped tomatoes and served (continued from page 25) = Very Good = Extraordinary

over handmade tagliatelle. Along with the three starters, this was the tastiest dish of the night. Another fine dish was the Paris-brest ($7), a light circle of perfect pate a choux, filled with hazelnut cream and served with rich, deep, chocolate sauce. Service was first-rate. Several people took fine care of us, but the rhythm of the meal was perpetually interrupted because our cell phone lights were constantly turned on. I do not understand why diners are forced to feel uncomfortable. Dining should be a pleasurable and enjoyable experience. Two tips of the toque to La Peg. SPR

n the late 1970s, Phyllis Richman, then-restaurant critic for The Washington Post, wrote “there are four great cuisines in the world: French, Italian, Chinese and Philadelphia.” Richman’s comments saluted the famed “Restaurant Renaissance,” as chefs carved out restaurants from storefronts, old warehouses and townhouses. This glorious period made Georges Perrier a star in his adopted city and throughout the world. When Chef Peter Woolsey opened Bistrot La Minette, 623 S. Sixth St., a number of years ago, he brought his love of classic French fare center stage. I have dined in his colorful dining room on a number of occasions and was rarely disappointed. Woolsey’s second venture is La Peg, which he describes as a contemporary brasserie. It is located in the FringeArts building on North Columbus Boulevard, which served as a pumping station more than 100 years ago. The well-lit small open kitchen is to the left upon diners’ entering. The entire room, which has looming ceilings and windows, is dark, with hanging lamps that emit no light. It was so dark at our corner table, we had to pull out our cell phones throughout the meal. We could not read the menu nor see Woolsey’s creations on the plates. Four guests next to us did the same thing. The menu features small, mid-size and large plates. I am not a fan of this style of dining, but the dishes intrigued me. Our delightful server helped us to navigate the menu.

We sipped drinks and tried to enjoy the dark dining experience. Lusty French bread and creamy butter were the perfect culinary foils for our starters. All were $3. Potatoes Piedmontaise were luscious little squares of cool potatoes tossed with ham, cornichons and the right touch of mayonnaise. Lentils were mixed with mirepoix, little bits of carrot, celery and onion, napped in a light mustard vinaigrette. Mushrooms à la Grecque is a classic dish that consisted of mushrooms braised in white wine and lemon juice, then cooled. I have not seen full carafs of wine on a menu in many years. La Peg offers a house Cabernet Sauvignon and a Chardonnay for $23. The Cabernet was fine and drinkable. Beef tartare ($11) was a rectangle of raw beef with scallions, cornichons and bits of chorizo topped with a mustard vinaigrette. There was no raw egg yolk on top for me to mix into the beef. A film of egg yolk on the plate did not add to the flavor of this dish. Foie gras torchon ($13) is the cool version of foie that takes about four days to prepare. Woolsey’s version consisted of a narrow log, which lacked flavor, topped with strands of frisee, which detracted from the foie. I scraped them off and spread the foie on toasted brioche. A scattering of toasted walnuts added a bit of crunch, along with pickled raisin butter, which I thought, at first glance in the dark, was pureed figs. Something sweet pairs nicely with foie gras. Autumn is the time for choucroutte garnie ($25). This classic from Alsace is

preneurial dream and last month intensified admiration for his native Indonesian fare by opening Ramayana, 1740 S. 11th St. “I have pride in this food, so I want to share it and be a member of the community,” the Montgomery County dweller said of helming the East Passyunk Crossingbased eatery. The proprietor counts the destination as a complement to a grocery store that he has operated at 1547 S. Seventh St. since 2002, with the locations helping to strengthen interest in Southeast Asian cuisine. The new establishment has drawn raves from carnivores and vegans alike, allowing the owner to continue to actualize a vision that he conceived in his homeland. “I came to the United States in 1995,” Siswanto said, adding that family matters necessitated his return and that Indonesia’s May ’98 riots prompted his settling here

Heat the cup of vegetable oil in a small saucepan over medium high heat. Deep fry the eggs for 5 to 7 minutes until golden brown, and set aside. Use a food processor to blend the peppers, garlic cloves, shallots, tomatoes and shrimp paste. Add the peanut oil, blend until reaching a smooth consistency, then set aside. Heat the tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Pour the processed mixture into the skillet, and add the sugar and fried eggs, mixing well. Reduce the heat to medium low, and simmer for up to seven minutes. SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/ food-and-drink/features.

The local grocery store and a New York City-based one clarified his journey, with Siswanto reaching fulfillment Oct. 8. While fellow Indonesians have gravitated toward the grub, 85 percent of the patrons have been Americans, but no matter one’s nationality, Ramayana’s Telur Balado has proven a hit. “It’s very sentimental to me,” Siswanto said of the spicy chili sauce, which he often ate in his financially lean years. “It’s easy to cook and the ingredients are easy to come by.” Individuals and families have loved ordering the creation and will likely feast on it and its menu companions when the site cel-

HALIM NADAR aka JIM! A father, a provider, a GREAT man, a TRUE definition of what an Old head should be. He spoke the truth even when you didn’t want to hear it. A man who has given guidance to young brothers and sisters to Islam and on day-to-day life issues. He educated you on this Deen because he was a true believer of Islam. He didn’t want any of you or your children to end up where he’s been so he stop most of you from fighting. Someone said he saved many lives and that he did, cause some of you would’ve been in jail or 6ft under. We shared our Father/ Husband with all of you and We thank all of you for loving him as much as We did. We ask that you not let what he tried to do with you and your children go in vain. Our Family asks that you continue Halim’s Legacy, by mentoring the youth, try to resolve conflicts in the community, help save the lives of youth from these streets. These streets don’t love you they just take you away from the people that do! His favorite say saying “WHAT’S UP JIM, KEEP HOPE ALIVE, TELL JESSES I SAID HI.!!” In honor of Halim our family will donate Islamic Books to Penn Presbyterian Hospital Salat Room, Miller-Nadar Families “MAY ALLAH GRANT HIM PARADISE” AMEEN ..

A Hawthorne-based girls’ volleyball team captured the Public League championship.

PRO SPORTS at southphillyreview.com/blogs.php

■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

aving played volleyball since the ﬁfth grade, Cindy Ung has registered many memorable moments but entered her senior season at The Academy at Palumbo, 1100 Catharine St., lacking the ultimate relic for her efforts, a title. Thanks to her never-say-die attitude and equal allegiance from her peers, the 17-yearold can call herself a conqueror, as the Grifﬁns won the Public League championship Oct. 29, downing Central High School 3-1 at Community College of Philadelphia. “Everybody wanted it so much this year,” the resident of Fourth Street and Snyder Avenue said Monday at her Hawthorne-situated school. “I’m so happy that we did it because coming in second is the worst feeling.” The captain and her contemporaries came into the campaign eager to honor the club’s “Trust, love and determination” mantra, with coach Erik Goldstein confident they could come to join elite programs such as Central and Julia R. Masterman High School as victors. Fielding a focused senior-heavy squad, their leader believed that anything less than the crown would render their year a partial failure, with last week’s triumph validating that his girls definitely have the goods. “I felt we had a window and were prepared to achieve greatness,” Goldstein, a Cherry Hill dweller and Palumbo’s athletic director, said of expectations. “We’d come close before, but I knew this could be the year and really should be the year.” His charges felt the same, especially Ung, whom Goldstein tabbed as “the heart and soul of the team” for playing a major role in the Griffins’ ability to fend off adversity. The Whitman denizen complemented the coach’s commitment as soon as the season started, and the ladies looked for a signature indication of their maturation, a token that arrived with a 3-0 whipping of Masterman on Sept. 23. “That’s when I really started feeling good about our chances,” Ung said of blanking the perennial powerhouses on the road. “I could just sense that we could be very special.” More impressive victories followed, including a 3-0 home spanking of Central Oct. 7, with Goldstein et al confident that regular season diligence would yield playoff prominence. “We’re well aware that the postseason is where you should want to play your best,” the coach said. “We knew there would be bumps, but I knew that if we stuck together, they’d just be something to look back on as a problem we overcame.”

THE PLAYOFF JOURNEY began minus any hindrances, as the Griffins romped to 3-0 wins over High School of the Future and Science Leadership Academy, respectively, on Oct. 22 and 24. The second success secured their place in the AA title tilt against an eager-for-redemption Master-

man team, with senior Andia J. Anderson entering that matchup coveting a sweep of the Griffins vaunted foes. “There’s no way around knowing their reputation,” the Chestnut Hill resident, Goldstein’s tallest player, said of acknowledging Masterman’s accomplishments, including nine consecutive Public League titles from 2005 through last year. “However, we worked hard all the time to get there, so there was no way we were going to let their background intimidate us.” Goldstein, who nurtured baseball as his first love before becoming a volleyball advocate, likewise entered the Oct. 27 contest ready to regard their opponents respectfully but not too heavily. Extinguishing the Blue Dragons 3-1, they qualified for the championship match against another adversary bent on exacting revenge. “We knew there could be a bit of a letdown against Central because of the emotions involved in beating Masterman,” senior Danielle Moore said of the pressure-packed duel. “We knew we had to handle our business, though.” The Northeast Philly inhabitant and her mates dropped the first segment but roared back to take the next three, fulfilling their quest to captivate their fans and to honor their dedication to one another and Goldstein. “There’s such a great vibe among us,” Moore, whom

the coach considers the unit’s “mother” because of her effortless offering of positive energy, said. “We worked hard on building our character, so it’s great to have proof of our dedication.” “We wanted it more than anything,” Anderson, who, like Ung, is pondering college programs, added. “The seniors couldn’t go out without that championship.” Goldstein credited their choosing bravery over apprehension for the second Central win and commends their blend of mental and physical gifts as the reason the focused females will enjoy lasting regard in Palumbo’s annals. “They’re a special group,” he said of the teenagers, who fell in Friday’s District XII game against Lansdale Catholic. “Expectations come with maturity, and they were able to overcome obstacles and barriers and put it all together. They deserve to be proud.” “We wanted to get better each time,” Ung added. “I’ll never forget what we did.” In Tuesday’s state tournament opener, the Griffins fell to Berks Catholic to conclude their year at 15-5.

May the Sacred heart of Jesus be adored, glorified, loved and preserved throughout the world, now and forever. Sacred heart of Jesus, have mercy on us. St. Jude, worker of Miracles, pray for us. St. Jude, helper of the hopeless, pray for us. Say this prayer 9 times a day for eight days, by the 8th day your prayers will be answered. Publication must be promised. Thank you St. Jude.
