Your intrepid columnist is ready to dive into last week’s key election results to get to the true meaning of the mind of voters.

Restaurant Review: High Street on Market Like many, I have fallen into a Sunday brunch rut. I return to Hawthorne’s in Bella Vista for a perfect omelet or crab cakes Benedict. Or, I head over to Fishtown’s Kraftwork for pancakes and the best scrapple in town.

State of the Republic To the Editor: t was very good to see Doug U.R. Grave’s comment (“Peeve-backs, Nov. 7). Reading Tom Cardella’s comments is like being in a virtual left lane that never ends. He apparently defends Obamacare (or, as I prefer to call it, CommieCare) and sees no problem with the government takeover of our health decisions, privacy decisions (except, of course, when it comes to abortion), relationships with our doctors, convenience of our local hospital (Methodist). Now, Obama comes out with his pathetic “sorry� comment, which is only a precursor to what he really wants – single payer. Single payer means the government controls everything about your health care where decisions on your obtaining medicines, getting needed surgery, etc. is left in the hands of those in Washington, D.C. who, by the way, will not be subjected to this socialist scheme. Obama is a

clinical liar. There, I said it. This is what you get when you are fooled by someone who had nothing to bring to the table when he ran for the presidency other than a community organizer background. This is what you get when you accept his comment days before the election that “We are five days from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.� That comment alone should have been a cold, hard slap in the face to every liberty-loving, freedom-loving, Constitution-loving American. This imperial presidency is a blot on our republic that will take years to rub out. The damage he has done is a deep, deep festering sore. His entire administration has been infiltrated with left wing anti-Constitutionalists, starting with [Eric] Holder in the (In)Justice Department, to the Environmental Protection Agency, which is putting the screws to the mining and farming communities, just for

starters. This administration has yet to comment on the slaughter of Christians in Syria and Egypt, yet invites the Muslim Brotherhood into our White House. It is unfortunate that the low information voters put this man in office, not once, but twice. Hang your heads in shame because you have helped write the obituary for this once proud, once great republic. I am (almost) sorry that my blessed father is no longer around to see what has happened to the country that he so proudly enlisted to defend. It would have killed him.

Love triangle Confusion over his relationship status left a man cut and his alleged attacker captured. ■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

A

uthorities responded to a call from the 900 block of South Fifth Street at 12:40 a.m. Monday, finding the complainant suffering from cuts to his hands and a stab wound above his right eye, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The victim stated he had gone to the Queen Village location to speak with a female acquaintance, whom he claims had not told him their relationship was finished. When seeking information from her, he encountered the woman’s new beau, who allegedly came outside with a pair of knives to stab him. He grabbed the instruments from the supposed offender, whom he said then reclaimed them and tossed them on the ground in a nearby parking lot, Tolliver said. Having observed the complainant, noted his condition and located the knives, authorities ventured to the abode and used a description from the victim to arrest 40-year-old North Philadelphian John Price, charging him with possession of an instrument of crime, recklessly endangering another person and assault.

Authorities used several anonymous tips to capture the third suspect in a trio of robberies. Having arrested 19-year-old Nicholas Pompeii, of the 1900 block of South 17th Street and 28-year-old Sophorn Ouch, of the 1600 block of South Bancroft Street Nov. 5 thanks to similar public input and a surveillance video, officials busted 19-yearold Keenan Gentry, of the 1800 block of South Bancroft Street, Keenan Gentry the next day in North Philly. Police had been seeking the three for their alleged roles in two Queen Village robberies and a Dickinson Square West offense. The first occurred Oct. 17 on the 700 block of South Fourth Street and involved the supposed gunpoint robbery of a man by Gentry and Pompeii, with the two scoring $15; credit cards, one of which they used to make an Oct. 22 purchase at Walmart; identification; and an iPhone, police said.

The second came Oct. 19 on the 1300 block of South Fourth Street, with the duo reportedly using a gun to frighten a woman into giving them her a bag with her cell phone inside, a wallet containing $80, keys, credit cards and identification and a bag with high heel shoes. The spree ended Oct. 22 with the suspected taking of a cell phone, debit cards and keys from a female on the 1300 block of South Fifth Street. In all the instances, the complainants said the two fled in a Toyota Camry, with the third victim, who reported to officials someone had used his credit cards at three stores, stating he saw a woman driving the vehicle. Surveillance video at one establishment claims to show Ouch making purchases with the cards. Tips led police to Pompeii, who awaits a Nov. 21 preliminary hearing based on charges including possession of an instrument of crime, assault, firearms violations, robbery recklessly endangering another person and unauthorized use an automobile based on authorities’ contention that he and Ouch stole a gray 2009 Toyota Camry, on the 1700 block of South Chadwick Street. The video footage helped officials to collar Ouch, whose information does not appear in court records and who received similar charges and the additional ones of forgery and fraud, outside her residence. Gentry, whose charges include possession of an instrument of crime, theft and firearms violations, awaits a Dec. 3 preliminary hearing.

Vehicular vexation A woman became involved in a scuffle over her purse in Grays Ferry Saturday, leading to the arrest of an alleged thief. The complainant stated she recalled leaving her purse in a van after her uncle gave her a ride to Southwest Philly at 4 p.m. Returning to her relative’s residence on the 1300 block of South 29th Street two hours later, she peered inside the vehicle for the holder but found nothing, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Walking to the other side of the ride, she observed an unknown woman supposedly placing the purse into a larger bag a few houses away from her uncle’s home. Confronting the supposed pillager, she regained the possession after brief struggle, though she realized items were missing, Tolliver said. Authorities responded to the location and arrested 36-year-old Christi Curran, also known as Christi Coleman, of


POLICE REPORT the 1300 block of South 29th Street, and charged her with robbery and theft. Police also questioned the uncle, who stated he parked the van at 5 p.m. and left it unlocked, though he claims he did not give the arrestee permission to enter it.

Pain, pain, go away An aggressive purse pursuer left a woman injured last week in Grays Ferry. Walking up the steps of a home on the 3600 block of Earp Street at 8:43 a.m. Nov. 7, the complainant fell to the ground after a rear-approaching man snatched her pocketbook, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The victim last observed him heading westbound on Earp Street then northbound on Schuylkill Avenue. Hearing her screams, a neighbor attempted to chase the unknown gure but lost sight of him on his northbound run, Tolliver said. The complainant, who lost her driver’s license, an ATM card, $75, credit cards, car and house keys in the attack, received transport to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, where she had her left arm, hip and shoulder examined. She described the aggressor as black, 6 foot; having a thin build; and wearing a dark brown tan jacket, blue jeans and a blue skullcap. To report information, call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

A Sunday morning display of vehicular aggression yielded two arrests in Packer Park. Traveling southbound on 20th Street in a 2010 Toyota Corolla at 5:30 a.m., the complainant and his driving companion eased up upon approaching a stop sign on Hartranft Street when another vehicle rearended them, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Thinking the impact was minimal, they left the ride to check for damage. Upon their departure, they observed the offending automobile, a 1999 Nissan Altima, reversing to attempt to drive around their vehicle, with the speeding mode of transportation striking the Toyota’s open passenger door. They claim the Nissan struck the complainant in the leg when its operator backed up and again tried to exit the scene. Rising from his fall, he and his peer followed the other vehicle to the area of 20th and Johnston streets, with the Nissan’s motorist allegedly attempting to make a U-turn in the middle of the street, Tolliver said. They blocked the path and the complainant left the Toyota, with three males who had exited from the Nissan reportedly assaulting him. Officers in the vicinity observed the scuffle and arrested

two of the three supposed aggressors, with the third fleeing the area. Authorities charged 25-year-old Brian Debello of Gibbstown, N.J., with assault, possession of an instrument of crime, aggravated assault and recklessly endangering another person. He had not posted his $100,000 bail as of press time and awaits a Nov. 26 preliminary hearing. They slapped similar charges, minus the possession of an instrument of crime, on 24-year-old Rosemont resident Nicholas Wilson, who posted his $20,000 bail and awaits a Dec. 16 trial.

POLICE REPORT continued from page 6

Butting in A cigarette-seeking man robbed a woman Monday morning in Grays Ferry. At 12:36 a.m., the victim was walking along Street toward 26th Street when an unknown male approached her from behind and asked for a cigarette, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The complainant ignored him and kept walking, with the stranger running up to her and blaring “You think I’m playing with you? Give me your s---.” The woman gave him her phone and wallet containing debit and credit cards, identification and $607 and observed him fleeing towards 28th Street, Tolliver said. She described him as black, 20 to 30 years old, 5-foot-6 to 5-foot-7, 185-200 pounds; having a medium build, thick eyebrows and a mustache; and wearing a black skullcap and a gray hoody.

Pointless in Point Breeze A male sustained blows to his head but parted with no possessions Saturday in Point Breeze. The complainant stated that at midnight, he was walking along the 1200 block of South Broad Street when two unknown males approached him from the rear. They struck him in the back of the head with an unknown object, resulting in his falling to the ground, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The victim, who stated the men made no demands for his property nor took any items before fleeing in an unknown direction, suffered a large contusion to the rear of his dome. He described the offenders as black, 18 to 22 years old; and wearing dark hoodies. No further description was available.

Easy as ABC and 123 A Globetrotter hit a Lower Moyamensing school to tout an anti-bullying campaign. ■ By Bill Chenevert R e v i e w S ta f f W r i t e r

F

our hundred kindergartners, rst- and second-graders packed into the gymnasium at the Philadelphia Performing Arts Charter School, 2407 S. Broad St., Tuesday morning to get a tutorial on standing up to bullying. The Harlem Globetrotters sent one of their stars, a Pennsylvania hero, to give them easily digestible and highly repeatable mantras for making their school a better social environment and to work towards making the building bully-free. Chris “Handles” Franklin is visiting 12 schools in the Philadelphia and Trenton areas this week to teach the “ABCs of Bullying Prevention.” The Harrisburg native and Lock Haven University alum stands 6-foot1 and towered over the students, whose heads barely reached his hips. One might think it could be hard to control and command the attention of a few hundred kids who haven’t even reached age 8, but Franklin had them in the palm of his hand. For 50 minutes he drilled six essential points into their heads and by the time they were lined up and heading back to their classrooms, they were repeating them without prompts. The 41-year-old was proud of how far he’d come, telling the captive audience that basketball had taken him to every state in the nation, all over the world and to television shows like “Good Morning America,” “The Today Show,” “The Wendy Williams Show,” and, soliciting the most excitement from the crowd, Disney’s “Kickin’ It.” “You may have even seen me playing basketball at the White House with Barack Obama,” he said to the rapt pupils. “I’m gonna talk to you about something very important because we believe that bullying is not cool, and it is not cool to pick on others.” The ABCs are pretty simple. A is for action: “If you see someone being bullied, if you are being bullied, take action,” Franklin explained. “Tell your teacher, tell a principal; without action, the bully will continue to bully.” B is for bravery: “It takes bravery when you’re taking a stand against bullying,” he said. “It takes bravery not to laugh when someone’s getting teased. We stand up for those who cannot stand up for themselves.” C is for compassion — a fairly large word for a 6-year-old to wrap his or her

There was no shortage of eager participants Tuesday morning, as students raised their hands to prove they were as good with a basketball as they are with memorizing mantras. S ta f f p h o t o b y B i l l C h e n e v e r t

head around. “That means caring for others,” Franklin said. “Be compassionate; a lot of bullying takes place because someone doesn’t have enough friends. Be a good teammate, and be a good classmate.” After a few good laughs, call and responses, ball tricks and a couple games with the audience, Franklin kept going with the memorable messages to hammer home the 1, 2, and 3 of bully prevention. “No. 1, it’s important to listen to your parents, your teachers and your principal,” he went on. “They’re trying to lead you in the right direction, and they are here because they care about you.” “No. 2, school is important,” Franklin professed. “Work hard in school, do your best. You guys and girls are important. You can never get enough education; you guys are our future, so don’t sell yourself or sell us short.” “No. 3, believe in your dreams. You can be whatever you want and go wherever you want,” he said.

Franklin shared the story of seeing the Globetrotters for the first time in appearances on “Scooby-Doo,” and he knew then that was what he wanted to do when he grew up. What followed was testing to see if the students were listening. For the most part, they succeeded in rattling off their ABCs and 123s of bully prevention. One of the two school counselors, Jennifer Berry, knows that bullying isn’t what it used to be. “It’s so much worse these days. With social media and texting and everything else, it’s a 24-hour cycle that you can’t escape,” she said. IT’S EARLY FOR these kids, but at 2600 S. Broad St., the building for the third through eighth grades, there’s certainly much more animosity between warring cliques and conflicting personalities. “If we can sew the seeds now and keep it in their minds to be people of action, people of bravery and compassion, then that’s something that will follow through with them to growing up and into adulthood,” Berry said. “I thought it was very successful,” Vice Principal Angela Ciccanti added. “They were able to repeat everything and as they were leaving, all of them were saying it.”

She seemed confident bullying isn’t a huge problem in her buildings and that the school makes a solid effort at addressing issues as they arise. “The bullying that occurs [here] is very, very minimal,” Ciccanti said. “We do try to address it as best we can. We do act on any reports of bullying immediately, but basically, these kids are very good.” As teenage suicides continue to make evening news headlines and storylines like the Richie Incognito/Jonathan Martin Miami Dolphins fiasco engage the public, seeing grown athletes and anti-bully allies speaking up puts a refreshing spin on the problematic topic. With efforts like Franklin’s and last month’s visit by Eagles wide receiver Arrelious Benn to James Alcorn Middle Years Academy, 1319 S. 26th St., to give a similar talk, athletes and leaders proactively encouraging compassion could be slowly turning schools into less terrifying places for some kids. Coming from just anybody, the message might have caused eye rolling, but coming from Franklin, it might resonate. “If you see someone in your class that doesn’t have a friend,” he said, “be their friend!” SPR Contact Staff Writer Bill Chenevert at bchenevert@southphillyreview.com or ext. 117.

terialized in 1775 with the beginnings of a naval infantry. Only the Army can claim a longer-running history of armed service branches, beating the Marine Corps out by five months. “Philly’s where it all started for the Marines,” Edward Chestnut, a 30-year-old who was signed up by his father at 17 and has since been deployed three times (twice to Iraq and once to Kuwait), said. The South Philly native, who previously worked security at The Philadelphia Navy Yard, 4747 S. Broad St., is now employed by the Transportation Security Administration. Whether people have been deployed a handful of times or were based at home to perform essential tasks, they were family Saturday. David Kamioner, executive director of the University City-situated Philadelphia Veterans Comfort House, was on hand to give out pamphlets and cards that might help find their way to veterans struggling with housing and employment. “Cameraderie,” he said of one word to describe the spirit of the day. The Army veteran spent 10 years in service himself, but branch rivalries were only playfully entertained among the crowd members. “Branch rivalry will always be there, but we’re all brothers at the end of the day,” Kamioner said.

Branching out

Spouses and children of Marines happily reveled in support of their serving relatives. P h o t o P r o v i d e d b y C o o k i e ’ s Tav e r n

THE LOWER MOYAMENSING space is a haven for the huge swaths of veterans who return home to less than ideal circumstances and though it served as the headquarters for this celebration, the 1000 block of Oregon Avenue was the venue. And John Lang approached with resolve. “I run the street,” the block resident, who served in the Vietnam War from 1967 to ’68, said, eyeing a notepad and adding that the M60 machine gun and M79 grenade launcher on the stage were his. Vietnam is certainly one of the biggest and most brutal conflicts the Corps has endured in the 20th century, and arguably, an era of the Corps in which faith in the United States’ military efforts garnered a critical eye from young men and women. Membership waned and numbers fell. According to the Marine Corps website, the ’60s was the decade of the Marines at its height. Presumably, the Corps benefited from an exultant return of World War II vets after a triumphant D-Day campaign in France. The decade began with 175,571 and ended with 309,771 Marines enlisted. The ’70s came to an end with 185,250 Marines, while this decade began with a little

more than 204,000 men and women with the title. Marine, by the way, is a title that is earned and not given. This distinction was made by Delaware resident and Vietnam veteran, Robert Wood Dailey Baird III, who was full of Marine and military lore, as was his friend, a Croydon resident named William T. Roadfuss, who served alongside each other. They shared stories, quotes, and trivia, and even relayed some tidbits of Marine Day celebrations past. James “Daddy Wags” Wagner, the Marine and family man who opened Cookie’s nearly 40 years ago, is no longer around for the celebrations. His daughters have kept the doors open since their father succumbed to a brain tumor in November 2002. Wagner was no stranger to the celebratory nature of a Marine Day party. Baird and Roadfuss tell the story of Wagner, far from sober, singing the traditional Marines’ Hymn into a wireless microphone from the balcony above Cookie’s entrance before safely swan-diving into a crowd of Marines. Roadfuss captured the essential need for a standing army and, perhaps more specifi-

cally an amphibious force, to protect our country in unsettling and unpredictable political climates. “When in the history of time has there ever not been conflict and strife and war?” he asked. There’s no doubt that only a certain kind of person can make it all the way to earn the title, Marine. They’ve provided manpower for every single substantial military ground effort in American history, and the United States would likely not be standing firmly as it does now without them. Roadfuss shared a favorite quote from Eleanor Roosevelt, who though seemingly employed to rally spirit and get Americans to buy war bonds in the era of WWII, succinctly captured the essence of the Marine Corps in two sentences: “The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!” SPR Contact Staff Writer Bill Chenevert at bchenevert@southphillyreview.com or ext. 117. Comment at southphillyreview.com/news/features.

A ration of passion

An East Passyunk Crossing actress and choreographer will aid a cabaret company’s look at two literary giants’ tragic romance. ■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

S

ensitivity and sensuality have served Christine Fisler well in her acting and choreographing endeavors, yielding performances that have endowed audiences with her quest to convey beauty and honesty. The double threat will mesh her passions for The Cabaret Administration tomorrow through Sunday by portraying lauded novelist Mary Shelley in “Free.Think.Love.Frankenstein.” In addressing the scribe’s passionate yet perilous partnership with poet Percy Shelley, Fisler will help the company to make its debut while also enriching a career nowhere near approaching its peak. “It’s been an amazing process interacting with great artists,” the 31-year-old said last week from her residence on the 1700 block of South 13th Street. “Seeing it all come together has been a huge reward, and we’re ready to see how it’s received.” The East Passyunk Crossing dweller learned of the project in the spring, with former Passyunk Square inhabitant Anna Frangiosa pitching the literary couple as the subjects for a Gothic romance burlesque ballet. Loving period pieces and having added

LIFESTYLES to her peer’s artistic pedigree as a Cabaret Red Light figure from 2009 to ’11, Fisler agreed to participate, handpicking music and devising dances in the summer. With Frangiosa, who will direct and oversee costume and production design for the Adrienne Theatre-situated show, tabbing her a terrific choice to play Mary, she pondered how she could best examine the existence of the creator of the brainchild’s titular monster. “She experienced so much during their time together,” Fisler said of the pair, who began their relationship in 1814, married two years later and parted in ’22 with Percy’s drowning, a demise the show tackles through her suggested use of water sirens. “When we stage it, I want people to feel what we’re feeling, which involves a ton of emotions.” As her character will predominantly exude lust, sadness and wanting, Fisler, who will perform using her Lelu Lenore moniker, yearned to load her choreographed contributions with intense elements to honor the troupe’s goal to offer engaging, satirical, sensual and visually compelling works. With the Shelleys having also been frequent voices on political and societal matters, she and her colleagues will look to link their predecessors’ calls for social

awareness with their own enthusiasm for removing the veils on potentially taboo subjects, with sexuality a resonant theme. “People will either think we’re crazy or awesome,” Fisler said. “I have had many challenges within myself because I’ve wanted to manifest beauty. My hope, then, is that people will find it beautiful.” THE BELFORD, N.J. native started to develop her diligence as a 4-year-old dance student, with ballet becoming the focus of her middle school tenure, a period that included Royal Academy of Dance training. Honing film appreciation as another love, she aspired to be a dancer and an actress, the latter inspiring her mother to call her “Sarah Bernhardt” after the famous French actress. Graced with a delicate demeanor and an unstoppable attraction to being on stage, the self-confessed ham engrossed herself in dancing, deeming it her chief means of expression. “I never seriously doubted this would be my life’s pursuit,” Fisler said of becoming a force in her field. “I’ve really loved the journey and anticipate adding many destinations.” As a University of the Arts student, the optimistic presence moved toward jazz dancing, finding it teeming with sex ap-

to bond with her now-Fishtown-situated friend, Fisler admitted she is “scared to death” about tomorrow’s opening yet knows she and the patrons are in good hands. “It makes me feel so alive,” she said of the creative process. “With that comes some fear, but the hope outweighs that.” Having forged a successful turn as a choreographer and actress, Fisler feels her best efforts remain for her to put forth and has added writing to her repertoire. Planning to pen a short film for possible release next year, she is furthering her understanding of cinema by taking on horror movie roles, though, as with her main occupation, she always aspires to reach new creative heights. “I definitely want to do more movies, more theater, more everything,” Fisler said. “With ‘Frankenstein,’ I think I’m going a long way toward continuing to be involved with moving, even daring, stuff. That’s very much appreciated for me to have the chance to do.” SPR For tickets, visit brownpapertickets.com/ event/456697.

peal. Having taken a break from dance upon her 2004 graduation, a year after she relocated to South Philly, Fisler soon rekindled her passion, which she seeks to have pupils replicate and perhaps surpass as a ballet, jazz and modern dance instructor at her alma mater. With burlesque as a post-collegiate life addition, Fisler, whose postsecondary education choreography efforts made her a commodity, united with Frangiosa et al four years ago. “They were very revolutionary and kind of went against the whole idea of theater itself,” she said. “Each time I worked with them, I felt we were producing meaningful work that showed our interest in being provocative.” Over its three-year run, Cabaret Red Light enticed patrons with presentations such as “The Seven Deadly Sins” series, “Nutcracker” and “Looking Pretty and Saying Cute Things,” calling on venues like the Painted Bride and Plays & Players theaters and L’Etage, 624 S. Sixth St. Upon its dissolution two years ago, members branched off into various groups, with Frangiosa and Fisler crafting the Johnny Cash- and Elvis Presley-tinged “The Man in Black and The Ladies in Blue” last December for the Northern Liberties-based RUBA Club.

By Tom Cardella Columnist

What the election really means

Y

tie, who has gained the reputation of someone who means what he says (except when it came to challenging gay marriage in his state). How could he explain cozying up to the president when there is ample video evidence to the contrary? I suggest he claim he was under the influence of hypnosis, sort of a Jersey version of “The Manchurian Candidate” (perhaps Bruce Springsteen’s next hit song?). That brings us to McAuliffe’s narrow victory over Ken Cuccinelli to become Virginia’s next governor. Practically no one is impressed with McAuliffe’s win other than McAuliffe. He was expected to win handily against an opponent so far to the right he made Rick Santorum look like a soft-headed lefty. Cuccinelli even beat McAuliffe 51 to 42 percent among married women voters. Hint: this may have been because, as reported by New York Times columnist Gail Collins, McAuliffe admitted stopping for 15 minutes to address a political campaign rally on the way home from the hospital while his wife and newborn son sat in the car. He joked he garnered a lot of campaign cash and votes during that stop, but married women failed to see the “humor” in it. McAuliffe is kind of the anti-Christie, a career politician, who believes there is no higher calling than raising campaign money. He also is much thinner than Christie, exploding any myth that America is looking toward fatter candidates. De Blasio actually won the New York mayoralty campaign when he won the spring Democratic Primary. His Republican opponent would have gotten the same number of votes if his name had been omitted from the ballot and the lever was next to a blank space. What stunned political experts was that de Blasio even won the primary. He came from nowhere, local newspapers screamed. How did the political wunderkind with a mixed race family pull it off? Anthony Weiner. De Blasio will replace incumbent Michael Bloomberg, well known for anti-obesity campaign. When the primary campaign began in New York, folks who love tall sodas were just happy that Bloomberg wasn’t running for a fourth term. Weiner had the name recognition because he had been a high profile congressman and had flashed some women on social networks. All Weiner had to do to become mayor was to stop leering after repeating his name to women voters and literally keep it in his pants. This became too difficult a challenge for Weiner and his own weiner to overcome. The very liberal de Blasio became the big beneficiary. Regarding Philadelphia, we were unable to confirm there was an election held last Tuesday. SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/opinion/ cardella.

Liesel (Sophie Nélisse), from left, Rosa (Emily Watson) and Hans (Geoffrey Rush) manage life in war-torn Germany.

Page-turning film ■ By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

A

n uplifting tale set against the horrific backdrop of Nazi Germany, “The Book Thief” has all the markings of shameless Oscar bait, and certain critics have already labeled it as such. But this strange and provocative adaptation of Markus Zusak’s best-seller ably transcends awards-bait write-offs, playing instead as a film with a keen interest in the origins of intolerance, and growing as dark as a movie can while still remaining family-friendly. The story’s young protagonist is Liesel (Sophie Nélisse), an orphan with communist roots who winds up living with WWI vet Hans (Geoffrey Rush) and his grumpy wife, Rosa (Emily Watson), in the couple’s German cottage. A benevolent pair whose fear makes them put on a good face for Hitler’s minions, Hans and Rosa also take in Max (Ben Schnetzer), an on-therun Jew who shares the illiterate Liesel’s thirst for knowledge and helps Hans teach her literature and shape her worldview. Too young to know the dire effects of ignorance, children are the focus of “The Book Thief,” which Michael Petroni writes in a manner that comes within inches of maudlinness before deftly veering, and Brian Percival directs with a sharp eye for warm lighting and striking compositions. At a town book burning, where pages flutter like snow, we see curious Liesel alongside her more complacent friend, Rudy (Nico Liersch), and the Kool-Aid-drinking school bully, Franz (Levin Liam), a Nazi in training. It’s a cross section of the paths indoctrinated kids can take. Books become the symbolic glue that

holds the film together, providing Liesel with the wisdom she needs to overcome calamitous groupthink, and providing the film with unique aspects of great power. Max’s gift to Liesel is a copy of “Mein Kampf” with the pages whited out, so Liesel can fill the book with healthier words. And guiding the story itself, as narrator, is Death (Roger Allam), who ultimately functions as a tolerance reminder. Nazis and their supporters may blind themselves to it, but “The Book Thief” is compassionately hip to the great equalizer, even putting him at the wheel to propel the plot.

Recommended Rental Crystal Fairy Not rated November 19

A mad curio of a road trip comedy, Sebastián Silva’s “Crystal Fairy” follows irksome Jamie and his Chilean pals as they strive to obtain a special cactus and get high on its juices at the beach. En route, they meet the titular mystery woman (a stupendous Gaby Hoffman), who teaches Jamie a bit about getting outside himself. Both weird and humane, the film is a must for those in search of the offbeat. SPR Comment and see the trailers for this week’s movies at southphillyreview.com/arts-and-entertainment/movies.

our intrepid columnist is ready to dive into last week’s key election results to get to the true meaning of the mind of voters. We will be commenting on are the reelection of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Terry McAuliffe’s win in Virginia and Bill de Blasio’s election as the next Mayor of New York, and we will address the rumors there was an election in our own city. I will refrain from the obvious bad joke that Christie’s margin of victory was larger than his waistline (oops, sorry for the slip). He has pulled off the amazing feat of convincing voters he gets things done. Whether one likes what he’s done really doesn’t matter that much. Voters have decided anyone who can prove that government works, whether to one’s benefit or not, deserves another term. In this age of political dysfunction, Christie can make more money by not running for president in 2016 and opening up an office as a political consultant. Although we don’t live in New Jersey, we have relatives in South Jersey so we do have a vested interest. Note: Nearly all native South Philadelphians either have relatives in South Jersey or have already moved there. The re-election of Christie gives me four more years of fat jokes (unless that surgery really is working) and more good moments on YouTube. I especially enjoy his confrontations at diners. New Jersey teachers might want to consider moving to another state just to see who the governor would use for his new whipping boy/girl/person. But it seems as if Tea Party Republicans dislike him even more. One can do anything to the Tea Party (even step on their blue suede shoes), but one can’t be seen hanging with Obama — hurricane damage or no hurricane damage. One can’t even get away with playing golf with the president; just ask John Boehner, who is now being challenged for the speakership by a Tea Party member, let alone be seen walking the sandy dunes of the seashore with him in almost matching windbreakers. The question becomes whether the governor can survive ’16’s Republican presidential primaries. I think he can by emulating Mitt Romney, who was able to get the nomination by renouncing everything he always believed in. Such a strategy won’t be easy for Chris-

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

L

ike many, I have fallen into a Sunday brunch rut. I return to Hawthorne’s in Bella Vista for a perfect omelet or crab cakes Benedict. Or, I head over to Fishtown’s Kraftwork for pancakes and the best scrapple in town. High Street is owned by Ellen Yin, who opened Fork, her groundbreaking restaurant, 16 years ago. The kitchen is under the creative and careful eye of chef Eli Kulp, who has created a unique brunch menu. Ingredients, from the milk used to make the best yogurt one will ever taste, to flours and grains for his handmade breads, pastries and rolls, are sourced from local mills and farms. Edward and I arrived around noon on a chilly Sunday. Yin was seating people and helping her servers throughout brunch. She recognized me as we are members of Les Dames díEscoffier, an international nonprofit organization for women in the food, wine and hospitality industries. I am not sure she knew I was reviewing High Street. The room has an urban rustic farmhouse feel. Maps of High Street during William Penn’s time along with a large antique mirror, proper lighting and a community table added to the warm and casual atmosphere. Some of the dishes are served on wooden boards or in wooden bowls. I began brunch with a Bloody Mary ($8.50) that was dotted with horseradish and properly spiced. Edward went retro with a screwdriver ($8.75), and we discussed the menu. Kulp’s innate respect for ingredients and his imprint are all over the menu.

toast on offer, but will discover some of the finest in-house smoked fish this side of a Lower East Side Jewish deli. Smoked whitefish on a black Russian pumpernickel bialy with pickled peppers ($5.50) was a contrast in flavors and textures that we enjoyed. A bialy is more of a yeast roll with an imprint in the center, usually filled with grilled onions. Kulp filled it with smoked white fish and pickled peppers, playing off the smoky flavor of the fish (probably smoked trout) and the tang of the peppers. Kulp’s take on bagels and lox was truly inspiring. He cures his salmon with beet juice, slices it paper thin, rounds it out with homemade fluffy cream cheese, fronds of fragrant dill along with dill cucumbers and serves it on a homemade long soft pretzel roll ($9). I don’t know where Kulp gets these ideas. He takes classics and puts his own spin on them. Yin sent us a sampling of Kulp’s other dishes. Yogurt with ginger and chopped pistachio nuts with thinly sliced Granny Smith apples and a drizzle of honey ($6.50). His yogurt imparted a rich flavor and texture and lacks the strong tang of commercial yogurt. Roasted beets and feta ($4) proved when something is simply good and fresh and straightforward, leave it alone. The Sicilian cauliflower ($5) packed the right punch. The smoky flavor of grilled cauliflower mingled with the sweetness of currants, and the crunch of pistachio nuts was in perfect balance, resulting in a dish I am going to try to prepare at home. One will get big eyes when reading the list of pastries on offer at High Street on Market. Pistachio escargot ($3) was Restaurant Review:

shaped like a snail’s shell and prepared with a dough that I can only describe as a combination of croissant and puff pastry. The pistachio nuts were candied but not too sweet. Steaming mugs of Rival Brothers coffee ended our flawless brunch. Service was efficient and quiet. The staff watches the tables, and thank goodness there was no endless chatter. We enjoyed the same fine service as everyone in the packed room. Customers can walk up to the counter and see the dishes they might want to order. Edward and I decided to buy some of Kulp’s unusual breads, a half a loaf of potato bread and half a loaf his caraway rye ($7) that we used for a late supper of egg = Very Good

Chef Justin Swain’s No Bake Pumpkin Pie

C

hef Justin Swain may run the kitchen at Rex 1516, 1516 South St., but it doesn’t mean he has to

Chef Justin Swain

Rex 1516 Owners: Jill Weber and Evan Malone Opened March 6, 2012 1516 South St. 267-319-1366 rex1516.com

share all of his recipes with customers. One of the 26-year-old’s specials is a gluten-free No Bake Pumpkin Pie. “My father-in-law is gluten free so that’s where this all started,” the resident of Passyunk Avenue and Tasker Street said. “There is no reason everyone shouldn’t be able to enjoy this Thanksgiving classic.” With the South-of-South establishment being closed for Thanksgiving, Swain has no plans on starting his own baking business. Actually, he may just contribute a side dish to the Thanksgiving table. “...Anytime I get off, it’s nice to have other people cooking,” he said. But the no-baking aspect, makes it easier to duplicate. “The hardest part is really just getting all of the ingredients,” Swain said. For those seeking a Turkey Day sampling, Rex 1516 will be offering a special Thanksgiving Sandwich Nov. 22 to 24

for $14. “I wanted to offer something for our guests reminiscent of the season and traditional Thanksgiving flavors,” Swain said. “However, I wanted to make it our own by elevating it and putting our own Southern-inspired spin on it.”

PIE CRUST INGREDIENTS: 2 1/4 cup of ground raw hazelnuts 3/4 cup of cocoa powder 1/2 cup of coconut oil 9 dates, stoned

FILLING DIRECTIONS:

mixer until smooth and creamy. Both fats should be well softened to ensure the filling is lump free. Add the powdered sugar to the mixture, and beat until smooth and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract, molasses, pumpkin pie spice and pumpkin puree, and beat until thoroughly combined. If the filling is lumpy, pass it through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl. Spoon the filling into the pie shell, and let chill in the fridge overnight. (It’s very important that the pie chills overnight or it won’t set up). SPR

Beat cream cheese and butter in the bowl of an electric stand

Comment at southphillyreview.com/ food-and-drink/features.

F IL L ING I N G RED I EN TS : 1 8-ounce package of cream cheese, softened 5 tablespoons of unsalted butter, softened 1-1/2 cups of powdered sugar 1 tablespoon of pure vanilla extract 1 teaspoon of molasses 2-1/2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice 1 15-ounce can of pumpkin puree

PIE CRUST DIRECTIONS: Place hazelnuts and cocoa powder in a large bowl, and mix well, breaking up any lumps. Add the coconut oil to powder mixture, and mix well. Place the dates in a small bowl, and mash with a fork. Add the dates to dough-like mixture, and combine well with hands. Place the crust into a 9-inch round pie pan, and store in the refrigerator while making filling.

Train of thought

A West Passyunk walker and a Girard Estate runner will test their mental and physical might as Philadelphia Marathon entrants. ■ By Joseph Myers Review Managing Editor

C

armena Pyfrom loves lauding the Lord for her ample blessings, which include a 38-year marriage, two children and six grandchildren. Considering most occasions chances to chat with her creator, the 62-year-old will offer seven hours of praise Sunday as a GoreTex Philadelphia Marathon walker. Set to make her sixth excursion, she will blend her gratitude with intense self-belief to inspire others to ask more of themselves when pondering their abilities. “Scientists say we use only a tiny part of our brains, and I think that’s true of our overall lives, too,” the resident of the 1900 block of South 22nd Street said of seeing her participation as a boredom-busting boon. “I value having these opportunities to get out of my comfort zone.” The West Passyunk inhabitant has missed only one marathon since her 2007 debut with PhillyFit, now USA Fit/Philly. Electing for the half-marathon version for her inaugural attempt and the full experience the subsequent times, she has marked this year with novelty, as she prepped for her course work with Purpose-Driven Walkers, a group she founded in May. “Even if someone does not plan to go through with ever doing a marathon, I recommend submitting yourself to the training process,” Pyfrom said. “It goes a long way toward ridding yourself of limits. I started when I was 56 and find it incredibly and exceptionally spiritual.” As she covers the scenic and landmarkheavy route, the religious figure, who builds her faith as an adjunct chaplain at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania and an instructor within the Redeemer Institute for Christian Education at The Church of the Redeemer Baptist, 1440 S. 24th St., hatches numerous thoughts, all centering on how much providence has helped her. With so many entrants obsessing over winning the event or setting personal bests, she chooses to be thankful for another considerable stretch to prove her tenacity. “I’m in it to complete it,” Pyfrom, who trains at FDR Park, Broad Street and Pattison Avenue, said. “I walk for the satisfaction of getting it done.” Graced with great supporters, including

Gaeten Dominic, left, and Carmena Pyfrom have tallied nearly 30 marathons between them. Sunday’s event will find them using the familiar course to strengthen their health and self-esteem. S ta f f P h o t o s b y J o s e p h M y e r s a n d K at h r y n P o o l e

her husband Richardo, the ebullient individual sees the marathon as a perennial provider of proof that she must stick with her “Let’s break the rules” mantra with regards to accepting decline as an element of aging. “I let God do His work because He’s not bound by anything, certainly not by my infirmities,” Pyfrom, who is studying for her Doctor of Ministry through the Glenside-situated Westminster Theological Seminary, said. “The journey is amazing and so educational.” Eager to travel to Ireland for a chance to ambulate across the Emerald Isle’s choice spots, Pyfrom will deem that probable August trek another opportunity to opine that shutting off one’s options steals the soul’s vibrancy. “The Bible asks ‘Do you really want to be made whole?’” she said. “I do and the marathon is a huge help.”

WHILE THE 26.2-MILE adventure has given Pyfrom mental boosts, it has allowed Gaeten Dominic to sustain his physical vigor. Ready for his 18th effort, the resident of the 3100 block of South 18th Street has long revered the event’s capacity for fostering personal as well as communal growth. “I would never say it’s easy,” the 55-yearold Packer Park denizen said. “It beats you up, but the pain is self-inflicted, so because of that quality, I think it’s all doable.” Well-acquainted with compression sleeves, elastic bandages, heating pads and ice packs, the dedicated galloper will always prefer them to the medicine he ingested to counter an illness 17 years ago. When the malady robbed him of more than six months of work, Dominic, now a nurse assisting mainly with orthopedic surgeries at Pennsylvania Hospital, needed a rejuvenating activity to restore his strength, with

PRO SPORTS at southphillyreview.com/blogs.php walking becoming his initial choice after significant weight loss left him minus the power to try anything else. “I went from a walk to a trot to a jog to a run to an obsession,” the medical professional said of his pursuit. That attraction has led Dominic to use his feet to convey him to his place of employment regularly, with the allure of running’s autonomy-increasing aspects too tempting to quell. “It does provide a sense of freedom and fulfillment,” the fixated figure, who in ’01 nearly qualifi ed for the Boston Marathon by registering a 3:32 finish, said. “The marathon is one of my most favorite runs and is already on my schedule for next year.” Dominic, whose training sessions include jaunts along South Ninth Street, also dots his calendar with triathlons and events to show support for lung cancer research. Having evolved from a competitor who had gaining entrance into the prestigious Massachusetts spring run as a huge motivator into a fervent admirer of his chance to add to the running community’s camaraderie, he looks forward to completing the course minus the pressure of meeting a specified time designation. “I’ve begun to taper my runs so that the day before, I’ll just do a mile and get ready mentally,” Dominic said. The family man, whose 29-year marriage to Michele has endowed him with substantial backing from his mate and daughters Courtney and Noelle, soon-tobe graduates from the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine and Widener University, respectively, to whom he is dedicating this year’s performance, loves having devoted nearly two decades of his physical and mental maturation to the marathon. Though the years have brought challenges, he finds himself as excited now as he was when he first called on his feet to teach him diligence. “It’s become an amazing event with so many spectators, volunteers and runners,” Dominic said. “I’m appreciative for each chance to get out there.” SPR Visit philadelphiamarathon.com.

PRAYERS

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. m.d.

Oh, St. Joseph, whose protection is so great, so strong, so prompt, before the throne of God, I place in you all my interests and desires. Oh St. Joseph, do assist me by your powerful intercession, and obtain for me from your Divine Son all spiritual blessings through Jesus Christ, Our Lord, so that having engaged here below your heavenly power, I may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of Fathers. Oh, St. Joseph, I never weary contemplating you and Jesus asleep in your arms. I dare not approach w hile he reposes near your heart. Press Him in my name and kiss His fine head for me, and ask Him to return the kiss when I draw my dying breath. St. Joseph, patron of departing souls, pray for me. Amen. With Ecclesiastical Approval, Say for nine days for anything you may desire. It has never been known to fail. This prayer was found in the fifthieth year of our Lord Jesus Christ...Make it known everywhere!
