s the national conversation turns to Paris and Syria in the wake of the terroristic attacks on Paris November 13, or as the ongoing U.S. presidential campaigns regularly address immigration policies and even building a wall along our Southern border, Kun-Yang Lin couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have better timing. Linâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the founding and artistic director of Kun-Yang Lin/ Dancers, which has created an artistic home and blossomed in it at 1316 S. Ninth St. The Taiwanese immigrantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s contemporary dance companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s set to
explore what â&#x20AC;&#x153;homeâ&#x20AC;? means with a three-night, four-performance run of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Home/S. 9th St.â&#x20AC;? at FringeArts on Columbus Boulevard this weekend. Lin hunted and scoured Philadelphia for the right spot to build a headquarters and found it in 2008. South Philly and South Ninth Street became clear winners in his mind, in part for its rich history of oldworld immigration and also because of its burgeoning status as a hub for Phillyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s newest waves of immigration from Mexico, Central America, Cambodia, Nepal, Bur-
ma, China, India and Indonesia. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m very happy and we can be proud that we are South Phillybased and we are an internationallyknown dance company,â&#x20AC;? Lin, who noted that State representatives and City Council members were present at the spaceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grand opening almost eight years ago, said. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just patting himself on the back. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I recruit [dance artists] but they come to me, a lot of dancers come to me. In South Philly we have an international group of artistsâ&#x20AC;? who want to work with Kun-Yang Lin/
Dancers, he said. In July they had an open audition and more than 60 dancers from all over the world, including practitioners from Greece, Belgium, France, New York City, California, Toronto and more, visited the Passyunk Square studio. His own companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dancers arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exactly local, either. Two hires hail from China, others have Polish, Greek, and Irish ancestry, more are African-American and Filipino. â&#x20AC;&#x153;America is not all white,â&#x20AC;? Lin asserted, and hinted at what can be too-often seen as an America thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ASS 6=;3 ^OUS ,,

Letters To our Readers: The South Philly Review has been in mourning since learning of the Nov. 12 death of Jim Julia Sr., who had served for the last 11 years as the president of the Philadelphia Mummers Fancy Brigade Association. The 60-year-old South Philly native frequently contributed to this publication, regaling readers with tales that infused further fascination with all things Mummery. His complete commitment to the institution of the Mummers Parade and not simply his entityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s involvement proved particularly admirable to Jim Bradley.

Mr. Julia, a Delaware inhabitant at the time of his passing, also showed local love through a 17-year stint as captain of the Downtowners. He leaves behind wife Debby, two sons and a granddaughter. Friends and family will convene from 9 to 10:15 a.m. today at Our Lady of Mt.

To the Editor: Hi, Joe [Myers}. I grew up in South Philly and also went to [Bishop] Neumann at 26th and Mifflin streets, class of 1973. I love your insightful and thoughtful observations of not just our neighborComment at southphillyreview.com/opinion B y Ti n a G a r c e a u hoods but Philly in general. Too many of our boys made the move to South Jersey for so-called greener pastures and â&#x20AC;&#x153;betterâ&#x20AC;? schools, malls, Olive Gardens, and Chiliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not forget the $10,000 a year taxes and, for a lot of them, their divorces after finally finding love with the 25-year-old secretary thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to end up bad. Sorry, Joe, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not a Jersey guy. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even like to cross the bridge. Please give us more of your youthful enthusiasm through your writing and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure the positive attitude you have. I love South Philly. We are all products of immigration, and I embrace diversity and all the millenials who are moving in droves to the new Brooklyn. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s make sure us South Philly boys stay to maintain the diversity that is the heart of our city.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Attacking seems the most reasonable thing to do. From my days in the Israeli military service, though, I know itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to attack terrorist groups because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not always organized in one area. ISIS is like that, so I want countries to unite and do something.â&#x20AC;? Idam Berdichev, Broad Street and Snyder Avenue
To the Editor: Many thanks to editor Joseph Myers for his touching tribute to veterans with a special memorial to his grandfather who served in Korea (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Venerating veterans,â&#x20AC;? Nov. 12). My late husband Stanley was also a veteran of the Korean War and, like Joeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s granddad, was able to convert that honorable sacrifice into a generous life of service to others as a health worker and friend. Stan did not survive to see his only child, our daughter Claire, become a bride this coming November 27, but he lives forever in our minds and hearts. Yes, we have much for which to be grateful this Thanksgiving, not the least of which are the men and women in uniform who actually make a solemn promise to defend us with their lives. For that we should be thankful every day. 5Z]`WO 3\R`Sa A]cbV >VWZORSZ^VWO Comment on these letters or topics at southphillyreview.com/opinion/letters.

s she placed packages into her vehicle in the CVS parking lot, 1901 Oregon Ave., at 4:30 p.m. Nov. 12, the complainant came into contact with two females wearing gray hoodies and scarves that covered their faces, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The supposed offenders pulled on her purse, with one reportedly saying â&#x20AC;&#x153; I have a gun.â&#x20AC;? The victim tried to retain the holder, but the duo allegedly yanked it from her and ran northbound on 19th Street. A witness observed the women on the 2400 block of South Opal Street and flagged down police personnel. Following positive identification, officers arrested Maddison Leidy, 21, and Brittany Fiorini, 24, both of the 2100 block of Porter Street, and charged them with criminal conspiracy, simple assault, making terroristic threats, and theft by unlawful taking. Leidy posted her $25,000 bail and awaits a Dec. 1 preliminary hearing with Fiorini, who had not posted her bail, also totaling $25,000, as of press time.
@]PPSR ]T U`OQS On Friday, the Philadelphia Police Department released the image of a man sought for a Grays Ferry-situated robbery. As first reported in the Nov. 5 South Philly Review as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Late-night lunacy,â&#x20AC;? the at-large criminal entered Giffi â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sports Bar, 1348 S. 33rd St., just before 11 p.m. Oct. 28 and placed a gun to the neck of a complainant, instructing her to remove everything from her pockets. He scored her G-Shock watch, monthly SEPTA transpass and $200 before ordering the other complainant to give him the contents of the cash register, approximately $500. He directed the victims and a witness to walk toward the back of the bar and fled northbound on 33rd Street. Call South Detectives Division Det.

/ [W\]`¸a [OX]` RWZS[[O Police arrested a juvenile after he reportedly confessed to stabbing an adult in Grays Ferry. The complainant was playing soccer with friends at 27th and Moore streets at 4 p.m. Sunday when an unknown individual, having approached him with a group of other juveniles, started to argue with him, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The victim contends that the teenager began to punch him and eventually stabbed his left arm. Authorities observed a large crowd of minors at the intersection and stated they spotted the alleged knife wielder as they attempted to disperse the crowd. They added that when they approached the boy, he said â&#x20AC;&#x153;I stabbed him.â&#x20AC;? Police detained the youth and charged him with possession of an instrument of crime, recklessly endangering another person, and aggravated and simple assault.

also held on to win Game 6 of the 1993 Fall Classic and force a seventh game against the Toronto Blue Jays? Joe Carter, who took Williams deep to clinch the title, you broke quite a few hearts that Saturday night. 6) Donovan McNabb: I remember the boos when the Eagles made the Syracuse University quarterback the second selection in the 1999 National Football League draft, passing on University of Texas stud running back Ricky Williams. Rather than wonder the outcome had they gone with the ballcarrier, I think â&#x20AC;&#x153;what ifâ&#x20AC;? McNabb had defeated the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XXXIX? Would all of the Birdsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; fans finally have embraced him? 5) Michael Vick: I never understood the infatuation with Vick, who, in my estimation, was never a solid team leader or even a decent human being. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What ifâ&#x20AC;? the Eagles had never bought into the hype? Which team would have gone on to find that he simply did not have enough gifts to pilot a championship run? 4) Larry Brown: The gifted coach guided the 76ers from 1997 to 2003, leading them to the NBA Finals in â&#x20AC;&#x2122;01. Naturally, with our lackluster luck, he won a title in â&#x20AC;&#x2122;04 with the Detroit Pistons. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What ifâ&#x20AC;? he and star guard Allen Iverson had enjoyed a better relationship? Would that have helped us to avoid the perennial pursuit of draft picks through 60loss seasons? 3) Charles Barkley: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sir Charlesâ&#x20AC;? was a polarizing figure during his tenure with the 76ers, but nobody doubted that he had impressive gifts. The season after his trade to Phoenix, the Suns made the finals, making one wonder â&#x20AC;&#x153;what ifâ&#x20AC;? he had remained on the club a tad longer. Would we have ever needed to draft Iverson in 1996? 2) Allen Iverson: â&#x20AC;&#x153;What ifâ&#x20AC;? the man dubbed â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Answerâ&#x20AC;? had another superstar to complement his efforts in trying to bring our hoopsters a title? Conventional wisdom says that no team wins an NBA championship without at least two, possibly three, standouts. Who could have been Iversonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s? 1) The Flyersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; management team: I have gladly revealed in this paper that I am a huge fan of the Orange and Black. Its management team, not so much! â&#x20AC;&#x153;What ifâ&#x20AC;? we could have leaders who consistently hold on to young talent, refuse to sign washed-up players, and reject the notion that former roster members automatically make the best decision makers? I would say we would have our next title holder. SPR Contact Editor Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview.com or ext. 124. Comment at southphillyreview.com/news/features.

ondering the plight of our sports teams this weekend, yours truly, who has followed local athletes for the last 26 years, started to consider a bunch of â&#x20AC;&#x153;What ifâ&#x20AC;? theories regarding the outcome of careers and forlorn campaigns. I fully know excessive deliberation on the past can prove detrimental, but please humor me for a few moments. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ifâ&#x20AC;? nothing else, I can add a few more shoulders to cry on and offer mine for your tears. 10) Pelle Lindbergh: He starred for the Flyers before I began to watch them in 1989, but what if the star goaltender had not become inebriated the night of November 10, 1985 and had not died as a result of a car crash the next morning? No knock against Ron Hextall, but I am sure that by the time that I started my allegiance to them, they would have had a Stanley Cup or two to their credit with the Swede as their keeper. 9) Eric Lindros: Adorned with the moniker â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Next One,â&#x20AC;? Eric Lindros was supposed to usher in a new era of winning for the Orange and Black. While he certainly brought them renewed renown, he never led us to a championship, and one wonders, â&#x20AC;&#x153;what ifâ&#x20AC;? he had not suffered so many injuries and not developed such an acrimonious relationship with management? 8) Frank Thomas: The Phillies could have taken â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Big Hurtâ&#x20AC;? with the fourth pick in the 1989 Major League Baseball draft but elected to select Jeff Jackson, who never played a game in the big leagues. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What ifâ&#x20AC;? they had nabbed the behemoth basher who entered the Hall of Fame last year? 7) Mitch Williams: Like everyone else in this city, I was thrilled when the Phils won the 2008 World Series. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What ifâ&#x20AC;? they had

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a tremendous amount of research dollars trying to figure this out.â&#x20AC;? And no, the research scientist says vaccines have nothing to do with autism: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been so much science, good science, to show itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the vaccines.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We kind of all support each other. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re each otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crutches. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re each otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s support system and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to have that,â&#x20AC;? Bongiovanni said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So many people just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand it. Sometimes itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a struggle just to take your kids to the park. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re bad kids and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re bad mothers â&#x20AC;&#x201C; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overstimulating for them.â&#x20AC;? Schaafâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s laboratory studies the way in which stimuli affect those with autism and strives to improve their quality of life with an understanding of the neurological processes at stake. She says two questions are constantly at stake: â&#x20AC;&#x153;How do we help these familes and kids who have autism be able to participate in their everyday activities? How can we help them have a better quality of life?â&#x20AC;? ACCORDING TO THE National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, reports that â&#x20AC;&#x153;many people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) seem to thrive so much on routine that
changes to the daily patterns of life â&#x20AC;&#x201C; like an unexpected stop on the way home from school â&#x20AC;&#x201C; can be very challenging. Some children may even get angry or have emotional outbursts, especially when placed in a new or overly stimulating environment.â&#x20AC;? Early signs of ASD in children include poor eye contact, low language and social skills, preoccupation with lining up toys and objects, and minimal emotional responsiveness. Later, the symptoms get more defined: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Impaired ability to make friends with peers; impaired ability to initiate or sustain a conversation with others; repetitive or unusual use of language; abnormally intense or focused interest; and inflexible adherence to specific routines and rituals.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;In a loud room, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll hold his ears.

hen Stephanie Bongiovanni approached Dr. Roseann Schaaf with an idea for a fundraiser, the latter admitted that she was heartened but didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have high hopes. Dr. Schaaf is the lead investigator at the Sensory Integration Laboratory within the Jefferson College of Health Professionsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Department of Occupational Therapy. And Bongiovanni has an autistic son â&#x20AC;&#x201C; she and seven South Philly friends, moms with their own autistic boys, had an idea for raising money, but Dr. Schaaf didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realize how powerful these women are. They call themselves Team Solve the Puzzle, and last week they presented a check to Dr. Schaafâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s laboratory for $52,000. â&#x20AC;&#x153;How about it?!â&#x20AC;? the recipient exclaimed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This group of women is just remarkable in my opinion. Most of them are working or have other children, and they all have very busy lives. Honestly, when they came to me with this idea, [I thought] â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;This will be nice â&#x20AC;&#x201C; theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll probably raise a couple thousand dollars.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? But when Schaaf attended the event at Galdoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Catering & Entertainment, 1933 W. Moyamensing Ave., Oct. 2 she was amazed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was just blown away by the support from the South Philly community. It was an incredible event,â&#x20AC;? she said. Bongiovanniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team picked up a great deal of steam in planning the night. Kate Farinella, Danielle Lusi, Terri Adorna, Noelle Pawlowski, Ashley Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Angelo, Michelle Falance and Monique Moffo helped Bongiovanni to pull donations from local businesses for a silent auction, and nearly 500 South Philadelphians attended the event. The matriarchs were thrilled with the turnout, too. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was so overwhelming, all the support,â&#x20AC;? Bongiovanni, of the 2300 block of South 17th Street, said. Nearly all of Team Solve the Puzzle orbits around St. Monica Parish, 2422 S. 17th St., in Girard Estate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so important to make people aware of the condition â&#x20AC;&#x201C; thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s our number one concern,â&#x20AC;? Bongiovanni added. Schaaf reports that one in 68 children are diagnosed as being on the autistic spectrum and one in 48 boys. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybody knows somebody [on the spectrum],â&#x20AC;? she said. Schaaf described autism as â&#x20AC;&#x153;a neurodevelopmental disorder that begins before birth.
dextrous, which has been a challenge in working on handwriting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll write his name by writing the letters on top of each other â&#x20AC;&#x201C; heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just started to realize he has to write letters across the page,â&#x20AC;? Adorna relayed. She and Bongiovanni are so grateful for the rest of their team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When the eight of us have the kids together, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the true meaning of the spectrum,â&#x20AC;? the former said. But they can empathize with one another and share successes, failures and triumphs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re always on a group text, the eight of us,â&#x20AC;? Adorna said, with a laugh. One subject they certainly discuss is the endless therapy, services and aides that need coordination. Adorna had planned to go back to work when Santino was one or almost twoyears-old. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no longer the case. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After the diagnosis comes tons of therapy,â&#x20AC;? she explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I knew at that point that I had to make a sacrifice and be a stay-at-home mom, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what I did. And believe me, this is a full-time job, driving him to therapy or having therapy at the house.â&#x20AC;? Santinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now enrolled at the Settlement Music School, 416 Queen St., which thrills his mother. She and the other moms have found that their sons do well with individualized sport. Like karate â&#x20AC;&#x201C; they practice at East West Team Martial Arts Philly, 1532 Packer Ave. Schaaf, though extremely grateful for the $52,000, mentioned a $4.1 million grant bestowed on her lab by the National Institute of Health, to figure out, essentially, â&#x20AC;&#x153;whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on in the brain.â&#x20AC;? She was humbled by Team Solve the Puzzle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These moms came to me because they wanted to make a difference in autism research,â&#x20AC;? and with this check they have. But research, largely, is national and Schaaf wants to work with the locals to figure out how to have an impact here, too. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was so touched by these busy families that wanted to come back to Jefferson to present us with this check with their kids,â&#x20AC;? she concluded, and offered a directive not unlike what these eight moms intended to begin with. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The plan is to meet with them to talk about how to use these funds not just for the program of research that we have here, but how can we give back to the community?â&#x20AC;?

Lin has been enthusiastically navigating the process of becoming a United States citizen, in part because he wanted to have his voice heard in the democratic process. Over the years heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s embraced what he calls his â&#x20AC;&#x153;American-nessâ&#x20AC;? and, poetically, it emerged when he had to stand up against neighbors who didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want his art space to be ornately and characteristically mosaicked by South Philly artist Isaiah Zagar.

aving logged only three months as a South Philly inhabitant, Alex McCormick is yearning to undertake geographic adventures to immerse himself in the environsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; storied past, exciting present, and boundless future. The recent college graduate and resident of the 1200 block of Moore Street likewise desires riveting professional enterprises and is enjoying one such boon through his starring turn as Hazel in Simpatico Theatre Projectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s production of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Watership Down.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an extraordinary opportunity to have for such a strong company,â&#x20AC;? the 22-year-old said of his employer, 850 S. Second St. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I consider myself fortunate to have any part and very, very luck to be playing Hazel.â&#x20AC;? Through Sunday, the East Passyunk
Crossing-based thespian and his peers, including locals Sam Sherburne and Dean Bloomingdale, are executing their adaptation of Richard Adamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 1972 novel at The Mandell Theater. The tale finds the personnel portraying rabbits who endeavor to find a new home when they fear for their warrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future, with Hazel helming their efforts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s someone who has ideas and who can admit not knowing how to implement them exactly,â&#x20AC;? McCormick said of his character, likening the lagomorphâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sense of diplomacy to his own. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Artistic Director) Allen (Radway) believed I could convey the heroic nature in which someone realizes that he needs help to pull off certain plans, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m thankful for that trust.â&#x20AC;? Along with the talents of the South Philly performers, the show, which unites the Queen Village-based offerer with Drexel Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mandell Professionals in Residence Project, calls on South Philadelphians Aaron Cromie, Colleen Hughes, and Josh Totaro to handle puppet design, animal-researched choreography, and live

B?<;IJOB;I score duties, respectively. Addressing themes such as resolve and regard for communal strength, it is also helping McCormick to intensify his reverence for the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theatrical identity and to enrich his stance on what defines success. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Having consistent work is a goal, for sure, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m more interested in taking matters one step at a time,â&#x20AC;? the centered figure said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At this age, I feel this production presents me with many chances to address what I feel I can achieve, and I love that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an adventure that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going on through the text as I ponder all that.â&#x20AC;? Having auditioned over the summer, during which he also performed Rehobeth Beach-situated childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theater stagings, he connected with the contents just as he had been fully setting himself to the task of paying his dues and looking to evolve with each assignment. As â&#x20AC;&#x153;Watership Downâ&#x20AC;? enters its final four days, he knows his journey will have hairy moments, but he expects to hop along no matter their might. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have respect for everyone in this business, especially the people in this city,â&#x20AC;? McCormick said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m eager to

interact with more passionate individuals, especially down here, because thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so much potential. I definitely want to try to make a career here because of the people and the possibilities.â&#x20AC;? BEFORE FALLING IN love with this metropolis, the young man nurtured his enthusiasm for theater as a Bucks County occupant. Becoming a willing victim of the acting bug at age 9, he appreciated that his pursuit of a stage-based existence could bring to life an interest in escaping from his world to navigate other realms. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the most basic sense, it meant I could get up there and talk to people, have fun, and share some insights,â&#x20AC;? McCormick said, adding that he feels involving himself at an early age in compelling conversations with adults aided his confidence in his locution. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Year after year, it came to mean I could gain a greater appreciation for my draw toward telling stories and exploring scenarios. I enjoying going down the rabbit hole to dig for deeper meaning, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve found it, especially here in this city.â&#x20AC;? Desiring a location not far from his Jamison roots, he chose to matriculate
at The University of the Arts, which has come to yield many graduates whose postenrollment plans have bred extended stays as South Philly dwellers. Seeking â&#x20AC;&#x153;fulldive training,â&#x20AC;? he found that and more at the Center City-based institution and noted that his sophomore year Meisner technique instruction helped to redefine his approach and cut to the core of his ambition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really loved thinking about becoming one of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theater practitioners,â&#x20AC;? the actor, whose rĂŠsumĂŠ documents a dozen efforts during his collegiate days, said, adding that shadowing performers in New York City did not offer as much contentment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s such a vibrant location, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s filled with companies and theaters that really want to present works that are going to resonate with audiences. As someone who loves a well-done play or musical, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m loving every second of my life here.â&#x20AC;? That passion includes a penchant for coming to know South Philly better, with McCormick liking its varying levels of activity and dormancy. Finding himself in an environment saturated with equally
eager contemporaries, he envisions meshing his mindset with theirs, not unlike the manner in which Hazel conducts his affairs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all looking to have a say in the future of theater,â&#x20AC;? he said, noting that he hopes to have his piece â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Playwrightâ&#x20AC;? appear in next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s FringeArts Festival. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Being in this city at this point is exciting and rewarding. I already feel so much appreciation for my opportunities.â&#x20AC;? Working on a web series with a friend that will adapt a short story of his titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;How to Find the Woman of Your Dreams in 10 Easy Steps,â&#x20AC;? he is hoping to prove a doubly delighted denizen of the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m an enthusiastic person because thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so much to hope for,â&#x20AC;? McCormick stated. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are many carrots to be had.â&#x20AC;? SPR Call 267-437-7529, or visit simpaticotheatre.org.

Ask your partner). Ready for the worst? Rossiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pumpkinspiced lasagna and pasta sauce( Uncle Nunzi wants to send a hit man after the person who came up with this flavor treat)... The Republican Partyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high point of its fourth debate was Rand Paul. Otherwise the debate was more civil, but just as fact-challenged. The libertarian from Kentucky finally got a chance at least to offer the party new ideas with which to be challenged. Otherwise, it was more stale stances such as tax cuts, removing regulations to allow unfettered capitalism to â&#x20AC;&#x153;saveâ&#x20AC;? us, and increased defense spending (something Paul challenged as more big government and antithetic to tax cutting). No support for increasing the minimum wage, despite mouthing solidarity with the working men and women of this country. Republicans argue that increasing the minimum wage always means fewer jobs, but studies show that it just as often coincides with increases in the job market. One of the more odious ideas offered at the debate was the contention that even the poor should pay a two-percent tax to have â&#x20AC;&#x153;skinâ&#x20AC;? in the game... In Harrisburg, getting high is merely knowing that after months of non-action, we might be getting close to a budget deal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Getting closeâ&#x20AC;? doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily mean what getting close usually means, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cause for partying in our state capital... When Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m on a steroid high, I think my mind sees things more clearly, but not in the case of the embattled Kathleen Kane and her fight to save her job as Attorney General. I am willing to admit to one and all that I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand the continued kerfuffle over â&#x20AC;&#x153;Porngateâ&#x20AC;? (memo to America at large - are we so lacking in imagination that every scandal since Watergate has to carry â&#x20AC;&#x153;gateâ&#x20AC;? in its title? There was a reason for calling the scandal that led to Nixonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s resignation â&#x20AC;&#x153;Watergate.â&#x20AC;? The break-in that caused the scandal actually occurred at the Watergate Hotel-Complex in D.C. Thank goodness, it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t occur at the Motel 6 down the road or what would we ever have called Deflategate or Porngate?). The Kane Kerfuffle (I like this better) is beyond comprehension or reason to me, much like the idea that we elect StateSupreme Court judges in Pennsylvania. In recent years, I have taken to refusing to vote for Supreme Court judges, rather than guessing. My other act of defiance is I sometimes vote â&#x20AC;&#x153;noâ&#x20AC;? on a ballot question. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m still high. SPR
ncle Nunzio just threw me out of his apartment. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t blame him, as I am high on steroids. My chemo treatment consists of a low dosage of the organic compounds, but when added to the low dosage that I take as part of my anti-rejection regimen to preserve my kidney (actually my wifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kidney), I ride on a high for a day afterward. I chatter constantly, interrupt conversations frequently, and make myself a giant pain-in-theass. Unfortunately, for my family and friends, there is no antidote from me except absence. My wife keeps anything that contains caffeine under lock and key. Of course, folks get high in other ways these days and can be just as much of a pain-in the ass. Pot users do not deserve to be locked up (more about that in a moment). But talk about annoying! They use euphemisms for pot and wink-wink at other pot users sprinkled in among their straight friends. Marijuana seems an inordinate part of their conversation. Hell, I like a good Nova smoked salmon sandwich (light on the cream cheese), but I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rely it for conversation, nor do I subscribe to a magazine devoted to smoked salmon. I get the legalization argument. At first I favored decriminalization, but not outright legalizing marijuana usage. I have always been for the legalization of the plant for medical purposes, although I realize that it is a short and slippery slope to legalization. I now believe outright legalization will stop all the hypocrisy, improve the conversation of obsessed pot users, and maybe put the magazine High Times out of business. The stats show that all too often, the color of oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s skin determines whether that person serves time in prison for using marijuana. On the other hand, the argument that pot is a gateway drug is not persuasive. If that were the case, our last two presidents would never have made it into the White House. Legalization of marijuana will create problems, mostly the same ones connected with alcohol. Lessening contact between the police and the minority community is good for both sides. We regulate alcohol, although not always successfully. So it will be for legalized pot. We have no choice but to deal with it. Now about that smoked salmon I love so much... Some folks apparently get high on pumpkinspiced products at this time of year. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how Starbucks and Dunkinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Donuts keep from running out of pumpkin-spiced flavored coffee. Each season, the pumpkin-spiced stuff gets crazier.

Get Involved in Phillyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fall Leaf Recycling Program Nov. 9th thru Dec. 19th During this six-week program, there will be 23 collection areas throughout the City for convenient leaf drop-off on a weekly basis, on Saturdays starting November 14th (except Saturdays following Veteranâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day and Thanksgiving holidays) from 9 AM to 3 PM at the designated area neighborhood locations below: Broad & Christian St. 3 20th & Hartranft St. 15th & Bigler St. In addition to bagged leaf drop-off, mechanical leaf collection will be offered on a designated weekly schedule in areas with a heavy concentration of leaves. For drop-off details and schedules visit PhiladelphiaStreets.com/leaves or call 311. Michael A. Nutter, Mayor David J. Perri, P.E., Streets Commissioner
COLLECTION GUIDELINES Bagged leaf drop-off collection tips: 4 Residents must place leaves in large brown biodegradable paper bags. 4 Never mix trash or other recyclable materials with bagged leaves. Mechanical collection area tips: 4 All leaves should be raked and ready for collection by 7:00 AM Monday for each week of mechanical collection. 4 If possible, move your vehicle to an off-street parking location on your scheduled collection day. 4 Visit PhiladelphiaStreets.com/leaves for a full mechanical collection schedule by area. 4 Residents in mechanical areas can also set out bagged leaves.

hanksgiving is one week away. You have three options to consider: going out for dinner; cooking dinner; or hoping someone will invite you for the feast. Most restaurants are closed on Thanksgiving Day. Your best bets are the hotels that offer buffets or sit-down dinners. They can be costly, though. I always enjoy cooking Thanksgiving dinner, but five years ago, we went to a fine restaurant that we frequent during the year. It was a disaster. At 4 p.m., the dining rooms were so crowded, the weary waitstaff had little room to walk about and serve guests. I wondered why three generations of one family was not home cooking dinner, watching football and enjoying the warmth of house and hearth. A toddler in a high chair screamed all night; speaking of the high chair, it was carried through the room, held up high, and barely missed knocking me in the head. To make matters worse, the chefs were clueless about how they should properly roast a turkey. So much for dining out. I hope by this time that you have chosen to tune out the ridiculous scare tactics some of the media have been spouting since Halloween. Roasting a turkey is not difficult. Through the years, I have given you instructions on the perfect way to roast a moist, succulent bird. You can also find Ina Gartenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recipes for whole turkey or boneless turkey breast on her website. It has long been a South Philly tradition for those who need oven space during the day to bring their turkey to local bakers. I think this is a fine way to do things. This tradition started in Europe, particularly France and Italy, when good home cooks visited their local bakers for roasting birds or sides of beef. They simply dropped off their precious cargo in the morning and picked it up in the afternoon. If you truly feel harried, you can roast your turkey and prepare the sides on Wednesday and simply re-heat the leftovers on Thanksgiving Day. If you are fortunate, you have received an invitation to dinner. Whether you are an experienced cook or a beginner, your first question is always â&#x20AC;&#x153;What can I bring?â&#x20AC;? Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even think of bringing a few cans of

cranberry sauce. This is where Fanteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Kitchen Shop, 1006 S. Ninth St., and DiBruno Bros., 930 S. Ninth St., come to the rescue. Of course, you can bring a large bunch of colorful autumn flowers, a bottle of wine or box of chocolates. But you know your host and hostess well, and paying a visit to two of my favorite stores will solve the answer to your question. If you are bringing a bottle of wine, you can find all sorts of corkscrews at Fanteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. If your host likes espresso, a set of espresso cups and saucers is always a thoughtful gift. For tea lovers, the store stocks a fine selection of large and individual teapots. One of my go-to hostess gifts is a European salt box. The top swivels open. All one has to do is pour kosher salt into the box for easy storage and use. Through DiBruno Bros., one can bring a small selection of Italian and French cheeses to be served before the pumpkin, apple and pecan pies. You can also put together a pretty package of olives, olive oil, an assortment of vinegars, small jars of capers, caper berries, imported jams and honey. As for the sweets, I have never known anyone who serves a towering layer cake at Thanksgiving. Cheesecake is a definite yes. But if it is pumpkin cheesecake, you get the gold star. Have a joyful and stress-free Thanksgiving. SPR Comment on this restaurant or review at southphillyreview.com/food-and-drink/reviews.

hough he will never neglect occasions to laud his life in Italy, which included an opportunity to cook for its seventh president, Sandro Pertini, Sandro Frusone will always relish chances to help Philadelphians to feast on fine food. Particularly enamored with Queen Village, the 57-year-old is enjoying his second stint as the owner of Gnocchi, 613 E. Passyunk Ave., with the time since its August opening finding him strengthening his ties to the area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I absolutely love these surroundings and the people who come in,â&#x20AC;? the proprietor said within the 35-seat establishment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I care about the success of this place, yes, and that means caring about their satisfaction.â&#x20AC;? With more than four decades of experience as an appeaser of appetites, Frusone, who resides in Merion Station with brother Giancarlo, whom he helped to open Me N Mo Meatballs and More, 214 South St., in January, takes immense pride in his craft. That dedication bred the 1998 opening of Gnocchi and the evolution of his reputation as a master creator. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I felt fortunate when I was first here,â&#x20AC;? the businessman said of his initial tenure, which, for personal reasons, ended with a 2001 return to the land of love. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m back, I feel so connected again, and I want to make everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience here phenomenal.â&#x20AC;? That yearning has proven incredibly fruitful in his exchanges with patrons, whom he said love to compliment his talent. He has won their favor for the siteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s namesake item, which guests have

As I establish myself here again, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the dishes that I really want to have my guests enjoy.â&#x20AC;?

While devotion to a life lived for others will always finish first in her personal race toward establishing happiness, the South of South dweller knows the joys of individual growth, too, and is advocating for similar realizations among doubters and deniers by participating in her inaugural GORE-TEX Philadelphia Marathon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, let me tell you, I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to be out there,â&#x20AC;? she said of tackling Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Benjamin Franklin Parkway-based course. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been training diligently for this, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to be so excited to test myself.â&#x20AC;? The invigorated individual will be making her first marathon appearance ever, having prepped for the grueling local endeavor by venturing to Canada June 7 for her initial half marathon, an excursion that she dubbed â&#x20AC;&#x153;the day that changed my lifeâ&#x20AC;?; to Long Island for the Oct. 4 Diva Run; and to Trenton for yet another half marathon that fell on her 40th birthday. Feeling â&#x20AC;&#x153;fit and fabâ&#x20AC;? upon starting a new decade, she simultaneously craves the familiarity and novelty that Sunday will yield. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m very comfortable with my surroundings,â&#x20AC;? the lifelong Philadelphia denizen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to come in handy when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m out there, especially when I enter the last stage of the day because Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never gone that far. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not worried, though, because I have belief in myself, and I know that my support system is going to be there.â&#x20AC;? With 12 years as a South Philly resident, Precise has been precise in being a devoted wife, mother, and educator, fulfilling the final role through Todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Child Learning Center. Finding the city as a whole a very inspirational realm, she found herself reminded in 2012 that its boons include many means for inhabitants to become and remain fit. Watching the

Broad Street Run that year, the three-time Penn Relays participant knew that she could never exorcise the notion that running is the best form of exercise for her. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Initially, I returned to it to shed some pounds,â&#x20AC;? Precise, who took to Broad Street and Washington Avenue July 29, â&#x20AC;&#x2122;13 to renew her vow to running, said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The more Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gained confidence in my endurance, the more Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve thought about testing myself more. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m to the point where having done so much recently, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve said â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do a marathonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;? so Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m pretty eager to be out there mighty early on Sunday to take another step in my maturation.â&#x20AC;? Instead of pondering how quickly she will finish the 26.2-mile journey, she finds herself more focused on having the time of her life and will celebrate the conclusion of her brave step by dining, fittingly, at Marathon Grill. Already planning her next possible jaunts, including Dec. 10â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s South Philly Striders Holiday Lights Run, Precise loves that she can continue to count running as a faithful friend. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I quit the discipline years ago,â&#x20AC;? she
said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m back and loving my adventures.â&#x20AC;? WHILE SUNDAY WILL commence a new connection for Precise, it will serve to re-establish one for Zandra Walton. The South of South occupant, whose time of two hours, 57 minutes, and 42 seconds in the â&#x20AC;&#x2122;12 Philadelphia Marathon won her the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fastest Philadelphia Femaleâ&#x20AC;?title, will me making her first appearance at the event since that stunning debut and plans to use her revived link to the well-run gathering not as an opportunity to duplicate that success but simply to â&#x20AC;&#x153;have fun and see what I can do.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s such a friendly and accessible means to be among people who are also looking to see whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inside of them,â&#x20AC;? the 28-year-old said of contemplating her contemporariesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; aims. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing wrong with looking to be competitive, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m looking to take in the atmosphere and do my best, whatever that is.â&#x20AC;? Walton chose to return to the Parkway on account of a compelling desire to
further her focus on being determined and being healthy. The latter element receives a boost through her being a fifth-year student at the University of Pennsylvania, with cancer biology as her focus. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not hard to make the connection between wanting to help people and knowing that I have to take care of myself,â&#x20AC;? the MD-PhD registrant, who has placed high on her list the possibility of becoming an oncologist, said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had soccer in my life before making running my exclusive activity, so Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been fortunate to be involved with two sports that have encouraged me to tend to my mental and physical preparation.â&#x20AC;? With regards to the first element of that explanation, Walton noted she entered the â&#x20AC;&#x2122;12 Philadelphia Marathon with â&#x20AC;&#x153;low expectations,â&#x20AC;? having expected to participate instead in the New York City Marathon. Hurricane Sandy led to the Big Apple-based trekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cancellation, so she decided to make Philadelphiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s version the means to test her tenacity and received a welcome reward for having done so. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I started out very fast and thought there was no way I could carry myself all the way through to a decent time,â&#x20AC;? she reflected. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I made adjustments, though, and I was pretty happy to post that time.â&#x20AC;? School commitments took precedence the last two years and despite being busy again as the marathon approached, Walton, currently in the cell and molecular biology program at the Ivy League institution, decided to halt her hiatus and cover the course. Having deemed her premiere participation â&#x20AC;&#x153;very appealingâ&#x20AC;? because it ushered her into uncharted territory, she has applied similar significance to Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s outing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I remember coming here to watch a friend in 2009 to offer support,â&#x20AC;? Walton recalled. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now I can say that I have that same sort of backing again.â&#x20AC;? Contact Editor Joseph Myers at jmyers@southphillyreview.com.
