South Philly Review 11-25-10

By Joseph Myersrev iew staff wr iter

A different sort of senior moment occurred at the former St. Agnes Continuing Care Center, 1930 S.

Broad St., Friday. At a late-morning gathering, nearly 200

people, including about 30 seniors, united to celebrate the opening of a 20,000-square-foot facility that will provide all-inclusive care for the elderly. The latest center for Mercy LIFE (Living Independently for

Elders) gives South Philadelphia a pair of innovative locations for what Carol Quinn, Mercy Home Health CEO, termed “the community’s most cherished population.”

The expansive location grants alternatives to older adults whose states might otherwise necessitate receiving home assistance.

“This center will work to preserve the dignity and as much of the independence as possible of our seniors,” City Council President Anna Verna said.

Joining her were LIFE personnel, a state offi cial, program participants and religious

fi gures charged with sanctifying the area. Before them, rows of community mem-bers learned how the site will allow health professionals to give participants medical, social and supportive services either on the premises or in their homes. It joins other centers in North Philadelphia and Gray Fer-ry, 3001 Moore St., as members of LIFE’s continuing care facilities,

Double-zing formationTwo proud schools will look

beyond losing seasons to score a Thanksgiving triumph.

By their own designInternational students envision a world’s fair in South Philly to coincide with America’s

birthday in 2026.

By Fred Durso Jr.Review Contr ibutor

Fast forward 16 years and imagine a greener South Philly, one where electric vehicles are double parked

on Ritner Street and drivers refuel their cars at charging stations — not gas stations — on Broad Street. With the country’s de-pendency on oil waned, the land currently housing the Sunoco Refi nery serves other purposes, possibly new development built for one massive celebration — America’s 250th birthday.

These scenarios might seem grandiose. But that’s not to say young urban design-ers from across the globe aren’t toying with such ideas.

To the Editor: Earlier this month, the Nutter

administration violated its obliga-tion to Philadelphia’s fi refi ghters and paramedics by fi ling an appeal of our most recent Act 111 inter-est arbitration award. Mayor Nut-ter’s appeal was a slap in the face to every Philadelphia fi refi ghter and paramedic and their families. It also upset the long-standing bal-ance of interests for police offi cers and fi refi ghters under Act 111 – we don’t strike, and our awards are “fi -nal and binding.” That’s a disgrace, but that’s also par for the course for Mike Nutter.

Over the last year and a half, the Nutter administration consistently threatened to appeal our next Act 111 award if they didn’t get exactly what they wanted, which was every-thing. In doing so, they offended the Act 111 panel, which basically resulted in our very strong (but very fair) award. Our union does not bow to threats, nor are we willing to settle for scraps for Local 22’s member-ship. So if the mayor wants to ap-peal, well, we gave him something to appeal — a strong award that pro-tects our pay and benefi ts and keeps us safe.

Our executive board is 100 percent prepared to fi ght to defend our award in the courts, and in the court of pub-lic opinion, too. It is not a crime to make a decent living, to have solid health care, or to have a pension in your retirement. It is not unreason-able to withhold furlough power from a mayor who has already reck-lessly endangered our lives with clo-sures and brownouts. And it is sim-ply not true that the City can’t afford our award — it can. We proved that during the Act 111 hearings, and we will do it again in court.

So over the coming weeks and months, our union will vigorously defend what we have already won and we fully expect to succeed in that effort. In the meantime, my advice to every IAFF Local 22 member is to display the class that Mayor Nut-ter will never know. Keep showing up for work every day, keep working hard, keep saving lives, and in the end, if we stay united, I am confi dent that our union will prevail.

Bill Gault President, Local 22 IAFF

A scared little turkey Ugh! It’s that time again. Time for

my least favorite day of the year: Thanksgiving. In case you didn’t re-alize it already, I’m a turkey. I was born about three years ago and my wonderful mother named me Pablo. My mother (whose name was Maria) and I would spend the year living on a beautiful farm, and the farmer and his wife would take magnifi cent care of us. Then, around the time of Thanks-giving last year, the farmer came to us and took my mother. I assumed that he was going to feed and wash her, but she never returned. Then I overheard the farmer saying, “Boy, that Maria sure is tasty!” To my hor-ror, I saw my dear beloved mother ly-ing dead on their kitchen table.

I ran as fast as my little feet could run. I had to get out of there. I had to ensure I would not have the same fate as my mother. After running for more than three hours, I decided that I was fi nally safe. My new location consisted of many trees, animals, and wildlife. But best of all, it was the home of many of my fellow turkeys. We lived there in peace and harmony for almost a year.

Then, a few days ago, hunters came and shot some of my peers. I hid among the trees until I could no longer hear the sound of gunshots. When I re-appeared, all of the other turkeys were gone. I realized that the anniversary of the death of my mother was rapidly approaching. The day that my friends discussed with such fear is almost here. Thanksgiving is coming. I have to go. I have to run again. Hopefully, I’ll fi nd a nice place to live for the next year. Yet, I know in my heart that once Thanksgiving approaches, I’ll be on the run again. Why are humans so desperate to kill us turkeys? I know one thing: I despise Thanksgiving.

Well, here I go. Wish me luck. I’m on the run again.

Autumn is royalTo the Editor:

I like autumn time of year, let me sing a song of cheer. A hop, jump and a frolic, let me play workaholic!

Is it a grumble, I hear? Step outside, enjoy the fare. Be as happy as the lark, on this tumble, you embark.

Exalt yourself like a king, all the while, let heartstrings ring. Because giving thanks is toil, I think autumn is royal!

Thanks for the laughsTo the Editor:

I want to thank Tom Cardella for the best laugh I have had in a long time. “Bilk and cookies” (Nov. 18) was hi-larious. I’m still laughing! How does he come up with such wit on the cur-rent and dire state of the union.

Over the years, I have admired many of Mr. Cardella’s columns, but this one is special, especially the bit about the new warnings on cigarette packages. I wish everyone would quit, especially the young people.

Keep up the good work Tom. You made my day.

Amy Winehouse is about to make a comebackNov. 18

It appeared that Amy Winehouse would never come back. However, one of pop-

rock’s few genuine outrageous performers is returning. The star-crossed Winehouse has announced dates in Brazil slated for January. It’ll be interesting to see if the Brit makes her way to America or well, even Brazil. Wino is unpredictable but very tal-ented. Here’s hoping she comes back and adds some color to the sonic landscape.

Red Molly adds anactual MollyNov. 17

After six years of performing with three non-Mollys, the folk band, Red Molly

actually has a Molly.

Singer-songwriter Molly Venter replaced Carolann Solebello in August. “We’re fi -nally true to our name,” vocalist-guitarist Abbie Gardner said. “It’s about time we have a Molly in this band.”

Red Molly, which will perform Thurs-day at Patriots Theater at the War Memo-rial and Friday at the Sellersville Theater, crafts beguiling Americana with warm melodies and pretty harmonies. Red Molly formed due to the vocal connection they shared. After playing the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival in 2004, Gardner, Solebello and Laurie MacAllister were the last sing-er-songwriters playing at a song circle.

“We realized that we had something be-tween us,” Gardner said. “It was apparent that we had a common denominator and we didn’t just let it go. We decided to throw ourselves into this project on the spot.”

The trio started to take off in ’06 after the release of their fi rst album, ‘Never Been to Vegas.’ The group found a fan base attract-ed to its distinctive three-part harmonies.

“I think we hit some people that may have regarded us as a throwback or some-thing,” Gardner said ... SPR

P o l i c e R e p o r t

By Amanda L. SnyderReview Managing Ed itor

Two men were arrested and charged with multiple counts of attempted murder for allegedly fi ring shots at

each other and police. Offi cers patrolling the 17th District

heard several gunshots at 28th and Whar-ton streets at about midnight Friday, Lt. Ray Evers of the Police Public Affairs Unit said. The offi cers witnessed two men fi ring shots at an occupied maroon Jeep with an unknown number of occupants fi ring back on the 1300 block of South 27th Street.

A uniformed offi cer exited his marked vehicle and announced his presence, but Wendell Taylor, 28, of the 2200 block of Manton Street, and an unidentifi ed man allegedly fi red shots at the offi cer, Evers said. The two fl ed west on the 2700 block of Sears Street as more shots were ex-changed.

Taylor and the unknown man split up with the offi cer trailing the latter into an alley between the 2800 block of Sears and Wharton streets, Evers said. Gunfi re was exchanged prior to the man fl eeing through the alley. He was not apprehended.

Backup arrived as offi cers scoured the scene for the gunmen, Evers said. Tay-lor was allegedly discovered hiding in a Pontiac SUV. Two houses down from the parked vehicle a 9mm Glock was recov-ered.

On the 1300 block of South 27th Street, police located Malik Noel, 35, of the 2700 block of Latona Street, as he is believed to have exited the Jeep with three bullet wounds to his chest, stomach and leg, Evers said.

Noel was transported to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in critical condition, Evers said. He was later upgrad-ed to stable and arrested the following day. Ballistics evidence indicated that the Jeep’s occupants also fi red shots at the offi cers.

Police are still searching for at least one other man involved in the incident, Evers said. The motive between the groups of shooters was unknown as of press time.

“It was a fi erce gun battle and we’re very lucky this offi cer got out without get-ting seriously injured,” Evers said.

Taylor and Noel were charged with three counts each of criminal attempted murder, aggravated assault, conspiracy murder, possession of an instrument of

crime, simple assault, recklessly endan-gering another person and various fi rearm violations.

At 9:30 p.m., Taylor was in his cell at the 1st District, 2301 S. 24th St., Detec-tive Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. When an offi cer was col-lecting trash from the Taylor’s cell, Taylor allegedly grabbed the offi cer from behind. Another offi cer tried to pull Taylor away from him, but Taylor is believed to have bitten the man’s right hand fracturing it and hit his back multiple times. In an at-tempt to secure Taylor, the woman offi cer sustained a contusion and scrapes.

Both offi cers were transported to Meth-odist Hospital where they were treated for their injuries, Tolliver said. Taylor was unharmed, but charged with two more counts each of aggravated assault, simple assault and recklessly endangering anoth-er person.

To report information, call South Detec-tives at 215-686-3013.

Jackpot takenAfter two hours at SugarHouse Casino,

a man was robbed at gunpoint of his win-nings in Passyunk Square.

A 22-year-old gambled from 2:30 to 4:30 a.m. Nov. 16 with a friend at the Fishtown waterfront casino, Detective Danielle Tol-liver of South Detective Division said. He dropped off his buddy at Sartain and Shunk streets before picking up another friend at 10th and Sigel streets.

While waiting on his friend, the man was urinating in an alley when he noticed an armed man exit a dark-colored older model Infanti with tinted windows, Tolliver said. The man tried to outrun the gunman, but he caught up to him on the 1000 block of Mc-Clellan Street. Pointing the black, .45-cali-ber automatic at him, the man swiped $1,700 to $2,000, as well as an “R” white gold and diamond-encrusted charm that fell from his necklace, which is valued at $3,000. The offender fl ed the east toward Ninth on McClellan in the Infanti.

Police have requested surveillance video from SugarHouse, Tolliver said.

The suspect was described as black, age 23 to 30, 6 foot, 190 pounds, with short hair, a goatee and a beard and was wear-ing dark clothing.

To report information, call South Detec-tives at 215-686-3013.

7P o l i c e R e p o r t

Rocco A. Maniscalco Jr. would have celebrated his 39th birthday Sunday. Instead, family and friends remem-

bered his life Saturday and sought justice for the father of four who was murdered.

“We want justice Big Rock,” read one sign affi xed to a telephone pole outside the home Maniscalco shared with wife Dan-ielle and four kids: Krista, 16, Rocco III, 13, Gianna, 8, and Jenna, 4. Five candles were lit beneath the signed posters. Birth-day cards from the kids hung from the porch. Another sign that adorned a street sign read, “Justice 4 Rocky.”

This marked the fi rst time the fam-ily spoke out about Rocco, a 6-foot-4, 275-pound all-around friendly guy.

“He was my favorite,” Rocco’s aunt Emma DiBono said noting all the times he had helped her.

“He was good to too many people,” DiBono, of the 2700 block of Sheridan Street, said while holding back tears. “That was his problem.”

Family and friends were generous in his honor chipping in $5,000 for a reward that will be administered by the Citizens Crime Commission to someone who pro-vides information leading to the shooter’s arrest and conviction.

“It’s just trying to get everyone’s atten-tion,” Danielle said at Saturday’s candle-light vigil. “Maybe the neighbors saw something.”

Her husband was gunned down and killed outside the family’s home on the 1700 block of Wolf Street at 1:04 a.m. June 10. The Maniscalcos enjoyed a home-cooked meal of Rocco’s favorite — gravy, spare ribs, meatballs and ravioli — hours before his death. The couple, who would have been married 15 years next month, decided to stay nearby, have a few drinks and watch the Flyers game less than a block away at the Wolf Street Café, 1636 Wolf St. He was on the phone all night, but that wasn’t unusual, his wife said.

“He had left,” she said. “He told me to fi nish the beer and go home.”

Ten minutes passed when she heard gun-shots outside her home. Her son looked out the window and saw him lying on the ground.

The shooter was described as white, thin, wearing a white T-shirt and driving a dark-colored SUV.

“He was a coward,” Rocco’s mother Lid-ia Riccobene said the shooter. “[He] shot him in the back four times. … He took away from the kids. The man who did this doesn’t know what he did to them.”

His death has been especially rough on the youngest, who got her father a black teddy bear for his birthday last year.

“When she went to bed, she said, ‘dad, could I sleep with him?’” Danielle said.

She would return the bear fi rst thing in the morning. Now the bear is located on top of Rocco’s urn. While Jenna talks to the bear, she leaves it with her father now, she said.

“We all want closure, but I need it for my kids,” Danielle said. “That’s my con-cern, my kids.”

Since his death, Danielle has been spread thin, driving all four kids to all their extra-curricular activities and trying to continue traditions they had with their father.

“There’s so much that he was supposed to be a part of,” Danielle said.

Rocco, a native of Seventh Street and Oregon Avenue and the youngest of three, owned a towing company, New Era Col-lision, 2501 Wharton St., Building Q, which was thriving, his mother said. Now without her son, she feels empty.

“I feel like I’m dead,” his mother of Mil-dred and Shunk streets said. “One day I’ll be with him again.”

Ready to strutN e w s

By Alexis Abate Review Contr ibutor

Whether it’s the ornate costumes fi lled with strips of sequins and feathers fl owing from their

backs; the intricate detail of the matching fl oats, the painted faces, the musical in-struments; or the innate aura of the cel-ebration, New Year’s Day wouldn’t be the same without the Mummers strutting up Broad Street. After overcoming fi nancial issues the past few years, the Mummers are gearing up to embrace 2011.

“Everything is on schedule,” Bob Shan-non Jr., New Years Shooters and Mum-mers Association president, said.

Mayor Michael Nutter accepted a $200,000 donation from Gerry Lenfast last month to cover non-police costs for the city’s 10 ethnic parades, which in-cludes last month’s Columbus Day Pa-rade and the upcoming Mummers Parade. Another $100,000 will be tacked on for police costs to cover next year’s parades starting with the Mummers. The Greater Philadelphia Traditions Fund multi-year donation, lead by U.S. Congressman Bob Brady, combined with the Mummers working alongside city offi cials helped to defray parade costs this year.

“There’s no more last-minute holdup worrying about who’s going to be back-ing the parade,” Shannon said.

The Parks and Recreation Department has helped the Mummers to set up themes, supervise the judges, determine the route among other aspects of the parade, Leo Dignam, Parks and Recreation deputy commissioner, who has coordinated the last seven Mummers Parades, said.

Following a parade of this magnitude, the city tallies an expense report for ser-vices rendered, Dignam said. This report includes costs, which totaled $40,000 last year not including police. The city organizations involved include the health department; Licenses and Inspections for outside vendors; the fi re department; parks and recreation for barricades and the construction of bleachers; and the streets department for cleanup. That being said, Dignam is pleased fi nances are not a concern this time around.

“This became a bone of contention be-tween the City and the Mummers, and this year, that won’t be an issue,” he said al-though he noted the fund may not cover

all expenses. With WPHL-TV set to air the festivities,

the more-than-a-century-old Philadelphia tradition remains intact.

“Everything is on track and ready to go. The parade is on Broad Street and that’s where we hope to stay forever,” Shannon, a board member for Quaker City String Band, 1943 S. Third St., and former captain, said.

Drawing in an extensive amount of people in full celebratory mode along a parade route can be positive and boosts revenue. Dignam said.

“I think all the parades are important — they are good for the City, good for the groups and good for the businesses,” he said.

WITH A STRUGGLING economy, no prize money and the cost of staging such an elaborate production, most of the clubs at-tempt to just break even in the end. Each works primarily to pay for their produc-tion and clubhouse maintenance. At $3 to $4 a piece, every feather adds up.

“Everything has to be brand new each year,” Shannon, a Washington Township, N.J. resident, said. “It’s very tough to

put together an organization of 60 play-ing members when everyone has to have brand new costumes that get more and more elaborate each year.”

Fancy brigades use tens of thousands of dollars on costumes alone. A production — running in the $70,000 to $100,000 range — is the biggest expense and 95 percent of it occurs in the last two months of the year, Jack Hee, Avalon String Band captain, said. But, a change in scoring with an equal percentage allocated for performance, cos-tumes, overall effect and production for the fi rst time helps even the scale.

The scoring change was voted on by the division’s board to even the playing fi eld among groups by lessening the large per-centage based on costumes, Dignam said.

To offset the total cost and make the march up Broad Street a reality, members pay dues mandated by each club. And, creative fundraising doesn’t hurt. Avalon, 1538-40 S. Second St., adds extra revenue from old-fashioned ticket sales, throwing parties and performances, Hee said.

“It’s tough with the economy,” the Gloucestor Township, N.J. resident, said.

“This year, we’ll do 70 to 75 performanc-es throughout the year.”

The group, whose musical rehearsals started in May while drill preps began in September, played almost 10 times in March alone, Hee added.

“Our goal each year is to not lose mon-ey,” he said.

But, some clubs don’t have the ability to perform with instruments. The South Philly Vikings, 1815 S. 11th St., has col-laborated with a couple clubs to throw bigger events while also securing smaller gigs for a fl at rate. Down a number of members — most likely a result of the economy — combined with the group’s recent stint on NBC reality TV show “America’s Got Talent” pushed rehearsals that typically began in August to late fall, choreographer Andrea Galasso said.

“I have faith,” the resident of 10th and Bigler streets said.

“This year, it’s a little tougher. We’re re-ally behind,” Jeff Travelina, the group’s former president and resident of 13th and Shunk streets, added.

Shannon recognized the positive feed-back that the Vikings’ national publicity brought the Mummers. Benefi cial Savings Bank and the Union League have stepped up as donors, Shannon said. Other fund-raising outlets include donating on www.SavetheMummers.com and purchasing the Bacon Brothers DVD, which has raked in an estimated $80,000.

While funding is needed, the greatest display of support on New Year’s Day comes in attendance.

“The brigade association has been working diligently to try and make some money and advertise to bring more people to the parade,” Shannon, who reminisced about the days when the streets north of Washington Avenue were packed with people standing 15 deep, said.

Whether it’s the comics, fancies, bri-gades, string bands or wench brigades, each group exudes in its performances its love of entertaining after fi ghting for this treasure to happen year after year.

“So many organizations led by a lot of great people worked really hard at trying to make people happy,” Shannon said. “We try and go out and entertain as much as we possibly can.” SPR

Monetary support to cover parade costs combined with creative fundraising has helpedto ease Mummers’ anxiety and shift their focus to the New Year’s Day performance.

of her upbringing that she feels still mark the area.

“We had two constants, family and neigh-borhood. LIFE is all about retaining those in each community,” the vice president of mission services for The Lourdes Medical Center of Burlington County, N.J., said.

Since its October 1998 establishment, LIFE has served more than 600 seniors and employs 175 doctors, nurses, social workers and therapists to serve its 350 cur-rent participants.

“We are hoping to make our newest center a real cornerstone for the community,” H. Ray Welch Jr., president and CEO of Mercy Health System of Southeastern Pennsylva-nia and Catholic Health East executive vice president of ministry services, said.

LIFE belongs to the Mercy Health Sys-tem, which, as the largest Catholic health care system serving the Delaware Valley, oversees four acute-care hospitals, the three aforementioned continuing care facilities and the Home Health care agency. That agency operates in fi ve counties and makes 300,000 annual visits, according to Quinn.

As a multi-institutional health system, Catholic Health East receives co-sponsor-ship from 13 religious congregations, in-

cluding the Sisters of Mercy, who ventured from Ireland to the United States in 1861 to start schools and minister to the sick.

Monsignor Kevin Lawrence, Philadel-phia South’s regional vicar, and Father Jo-seph Dinh C. Huynh, St. Thomas Aquinas’ parochial vicar, 1719 Morris St., honored God’s aid in helping the Sisters and work-ers by blessing the six crucifi xes that will adorn the facility, anointing the hands of employees and using holy water to bless the facility’s rooms.

“We pray that by anointing with oil, the hands of those who will minister at this Mercy LIFE Center will be strengthened for the work that lies ahead,” Lawrence said.

THE MEN OF God consecrated a triage area, a physical and occupational therapy gym in what was once a chapel, a full-service kitchen, activity rooms, offi ces and a little area for hairdressing. The facility also of-fers, among its medical services, dental, foot and vision care and distribution of prescribed medications, according to clin-ical manager Beth McGlynn, who held the same position at the Grays Ferry site.

Though assisting participants on-site is preferred, staff members will trek to homes to provide supportive services such as housekeeping, helping with laundry, cook-ing, dressing, meal planning and spiritual

counseling. Social services include transpor-tation, fi nance management and home-deliv-ered meals. If someone’s condition steadily worsens, LIFE arranges for Hospice care.

The participants who witnessed the ded-ication and blessing came from the North Philadelphia location. Those participants in Grays Ferry will follow the fi rst wave of transitions scheduled to fi nish by the sec-ond week of December, McGlynn said.

A nationally recognized Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE), LIFE is open to North and South Philadel-phia residents. They must be age 55 or old-er, have health problems that make living at home diffi cult, possess a desire to re-main at home and be eligible for Medicaid or Medicare or be able to pay privately.

“LIFE programs look to give people in-creased say in their destiny,” Michael Hall, Pennsylvania Department of Aging secre-tary, said. “Our state has the most adult day care services centers in the country. In fact, we almost have more programs than all the other states combined.”

Having that distinction means the state is living up to the message of the scripture passage, “Take care of God’s needy people, and welcome strangers into your home,” Suzanne Januszeski, LIFE’s director of op-erations, read from Romans 12:13.

Verna cited former Minnesota Sen. Hu-

bert Humphrey, who, while battling blad-der cancer, noted that the moral test of government is how it treats “those who are in the twilight of life, the elderly.”

“A thriving community needs to pass that same test,” she said.

Pat Fiore, of the 2700 block of South 17th Street, has been attending LIFE programs for at least fi ve years. He has enjoyed how well the community still respects him even after a stroke has slowed him.

“I like the prayer services,” Fiore, a devout Catholic who attends the North Philadelphia site and ventured to the former LIFE facil-ity at 1500 Columbus Blvd., said. “Bingo is enjoyable, too, and the arts and crafts, espe-cially ceramics, are my favorites.”

Van service transports Fiore three times a week. The new center will make his trips much shorter yet will take nothing from his participation in what Quinn sees as a necessity as the senior population booms.

“Our communities are starving,” Quinn, who also acts as LIFE’s CEO, said. “They need a mechanism of support dedicated to helping to improve the quality of many lives while offering true holistic care. That presence is Mercy LIFE.” SPR

The Spectrum fi nally meets the wrecking ball

After 42 years, the Spectrum had its date with destiny shortly before 1 p.m. Tuesday. Fans of the Flyers and the Sixers descended on

the building prior to the wrecking ball ceremony to catch former greats Bob Clarke, Bernie Parent and Julius Erving. The site of two NHL All-Star Games, a pair of NBA All-Star Games, two Final Fours and the Flyers’ Stanley Cup-clinching Game 6 win in 1974, the building cost $7 million.

It hosted its fi rst event, The Quaker City Jazz Fes-tival, on September 30, 1967 and would go on to become a popular site for legendary musicians such as Aerosmith, Genesis, The Grateful Dead, Pink Floyd, Bruce Springsteen, The Who and Pearl Jam, who formally closed the venue Oct. 31, 2009.

On July 14, ’08, Comcast-Spectacor Chairman Ed Snider announced the Spectrum would become the site for Philly Live!, a proposed retail, dining and en-tertainment hub. Though the new facility is expected to be a thriving addition to the sports complex area, hundreds of nostalgic fans showed their allegiance to America’s Showplace in earnest. SPR

Five teams of college scholars from South Korea, Canada and the United States have developed their own futuristic proposals for the fi fth annual Student Design Compe-tition, developed by the Center City-based Philadelphia Center for Architecture and The Ed Bacon Foundation. International collegiate students from all disciplines were instructed to develop a compelling design for this year’s theme, “Designing the Fair of the Future” that encompasses Packer Park, the sports complex, Navy Yard and a por-tion of Southwest Philly.

Since South Philly continues to reclaim its industrial land for sustainable reuse, the judges deemed the area an ideal fi t for the competition. The site used in the competition is bounded by the I-76, 26th Street, Penrose Avenue, I-95, Fort Miffl in Road, the Dela-ware River and the Walt Whitman Bridge.

“The [competition committee] wanted to use a large-scale part of the city with a lot of underutilized or empty land, or land that would be redeveloped within the next 15 to 20 years,” Greg Heller, chair of the Ed Bacon Program Advisory Committee, said. “The site has a lot going for it, and we felt we made the best choice for this particular contest.”

The hypothetical event is intended to underscore America’s landmark birthday in 2026. The fair held a century earlier oc-curred at Municipal Stadium, later renamed JFK Stadium at Broad Street and Pattison Avenue, which was built for the occasion, according to the foundation’s website.

“When I fi rst did the research of our relatively checkered history of centen-nial celebrations, I said, ‘Is it worth it?’” Andrew Dalzell, administrator for the Ed Bacon Foundation and program coordina-tor for the South of South Neighborhood Association, said. “Do we want to have a 16-year fi ght that leads to nothing, similar to what happened for the Bicentennial, or do we look at the Centennial and create something that’s still being talked about over 100 years later? This competition is forcing this discussion and putting some fantastic visual ideas to what is possible.”

THE COMPETITION IS a tribute to Bacon, the renowned city planner who died in ’05 and fathered actor Kevin Bacon and music composer Michael Bacon.

“Ed Bacon, throughout his life, had this incredible commitment to the next gen-eration of designers,” Heller said. “This competition is a way of commemorating Bacon’s legacy through an active program … for young designers around the world and also offer prize money that could be used to further their education.”

Selecting the competition’s themes and

geography has always been a collaborative process among the committee. This year’s “jury” includes Elinor Bacon, E.R. Bacon Development president and Ed’s daughter; Scott Gabriel Knowles, Drexel University assistant professor and “Imagining Phila-delphia: Edmund Bacon and the Future of the City” author; and Don Jones, principal at EwingCole, the primary design fi rm re-sponsible for Citizens Bank Park, 1 Citi-zens Bank Way.

Participants in this year’s competition were supplied with aerial photos and snap-shots of the community via the competi-tion’s website. Given minimal instruction, they were informed of specifi c landmarks, including FDR Park, Broad Street and Pat-tison Avenue, the stadiums and the Navy Yard, 5100 S. Broad St. Creating new structures in a sustainable fashion on or near any of these grounds that addressed sustainability also was permitted.

Students were required to address design “challenges,” including any necessary up-dates to the city’s infrastructure, collabora-tive efforts between residents and planners and choosing temporary or permanent struc-tures built for the celebration while main-taining the character of each neighborhood.

Since the judges were reviewing the com-petition’s entries at press time, Heller wasn’t able to provide details on submissions.

The judges panel will be pinpointing teams who thought outside of the box, Dal-

zell said. “[The judges] look for an understanding

of the realism of development,” the resi-dent of the 2000 block of Fitzwater Street said. “They have an eye for what’s real and what the snags would be and they reward creativity and innovation every year.”

The winners receive a portion of the $6,000 prize supplied from this year’s seven corporate donors, including the Penn Institute for Urban Research and the Greater Philadelphia Tourism Market. The judges will announce their decisions for the top-three winners, as well as honorable mention Dec. 7 at the center.

Other areas “reimagined” in previous competitions were Penn Center; the Gal-lery at Market East; North Philly’s Lud-low neighborhood; and South Philly’s Grays Ferry Crescent, a stretch of land bound by 34th Street, Grays Ferry Avenue and the Schuylkill River. The fi rst-place team from last year’s Grays Ferry com-petition was from Cornell University and developed a mixed-use plan that included residential, commercial/retail and park-land. While these projects haven’t left the design phase, Heller noted that land and building owners from the various neigh-borhoods have expressed interest in the students’ ideas.

World’s fairs and exhibitions aren’t for-eign to Philadelphia; the city hosted the Great Central Fair in 1864, which was less

a celebration and more of a fundraiser for the United Sanitary Commission, which assisted wounded soldiers during the Civil War. The Centennial Exhibition in ’76 took taking place predominantly in Fairmount Park and included a 21-acre temporary building, considered the largest structure of its time. Permanent structures, includ-ing the still-standing Memorial Hall, also were built for the event.

Compared to the 1876 celebration, the 1976 Bicentennial event was viewed as a lackluster effort despite years of planning. The biggest point of contention was location, as many planners favored differing spots to host the event. They never agreed on a lo-cale, but it ended up being in South Philly.

While a fair isn’t currently on the table for 2026, prepping for the proposed event that could redefi ne South Philly continues. The Student Design Competition also is in the process of evolving, Heller said.

“One of the things I’d like to do is get together a focus group of professors to see what we can do to better integrate this competition into the curriculum of Phila-delphia schools,” he said. SPR

When hard times hit his once-boomingcompany, a Southern grad decided to mix things

up by hosting a weekly radio show.

By Jess FuerstReview Contr ibutor

When life gave him lemons, Bobby Beato made a radio show. Beato — who is af-fectionately referred to as BB — is a booking agent whose business was hard hit by the current economy.

“Because of everything quieting down in the recession. See, I’m a licensed theatric agent since

1982. And I’ve been booking bands and DJs, anything having to do with music,” Beato, who is from the 2500

block of 11th Street, said. “I book Bob Pantano. I book jobs all over the place. The last several years have been pros-

pering with private bar and bat mitzvahs … But the past two to three years it’s slowed down to a crawl. I have to get my name

out there, have to be competitive. The money’s not coming in.”

Beato took the tough conditions as a challenge and came up with a new plan: Take to the airwaves.“I had this thought — I think the lord put it in my mind: Go

on the radio.” Beato, 63, said.The longtime agent decided to put his money where his mouth is and booked an hour’s worth of airtime 10 p.m. Mondays starting

last May. The show would be a platform to promote his business and talk about all things weddings and events.

“I was scared to death at fi rst because I’m the guy who normally books the guy behind the mike. I have no ego to feed. I had to reinvent myself and I gotta do this,” he said. “I went on quietly, no advertise-ment [of the show]. If I was going to foul up and drop microphones and say stupid stuff, I’m going to do it in the fi rst four or fi ve weeks. [If I’m bad] I’m going to stop, but it started getting better.”

Beato’s show, broadcast on Cruisin’ 92.1 WVLT, is the station’s most popular paid-for segment, the host said. Part of the popularity stems from the open format.

“The other night, my producer looked at me and said, ‘You have a phone call.’ So, of course, we put it through and the girl goes, ‘Hi, my name is Brittany and I’d like to dedicate a song to my boyfriend Bran-don.’ She said she was 20, but she must have been 13, 14. She was just listening to the show and doesn’t have the slightest idea it was a wedding show. So we played the song. It was just adorable,” Beato, who is now a Richboro resident, said.

Taking callers who ask wedding-related questions, Beato and co-host Anthony Armentani — the guitar player from one of the bands Beato represents and a child-hood friend — keep listeners entertained by fi elding questions, promoting their ser-vices, asking trivia questions and playing clips of bands they hope to book.

“It started out to be a platform to pro-mote and it’s morphed in to other things,” Beato said. “It’s called the Wedding and Entertainment Central Show. I didn’t want to paint myself in a corner. If you aren’t having a wedding, [you can still enjoy the show].”

BEATO GRADUATED FROM Southern, 2101 S. Broad St., in 1965. At the time, we was a “street-corner singer” in a group called “Richie and the Royals.”

“Richie and the Royals had a couple hit records,” Beato said. “Then I joined Anthony and the Sophomores. We had a major hit called ‘Gee’ — really, ‘Oh Gee [(But I’d Give the World)].’ In 1965 it was a major hit record and I really got the bug.”

Beato was drafted in ’66, the same year he went in to the service. He returned home in ’70 and continued where he had left off.

“I was in Purple Reign, that’s how I fed my kids. We did ‘This Old Man’ the disco version. Even Dick Clark played it on [American] ‘Bandstand.’ It was a na-tional top-40,” he said. “I was working with Purple Reign fi ve, six nights a week. I was working and my agent was making more than I was going out and playing the clubs.”

By ’79, Beato decided to move behind the scenes and started working as a junior booking agent for his former agent. Three years in to the training, his boss moved to Las Vegas, and sold Beato the client list.

“Anytime there is a contract between two people in the state of Pennsylvania one of them has to have an agent,” Beato, who became licensed and bonded when he took over the company, said. “My ex-pertise is in the musical end of it, a theat-rical agent.”

Since starting in the biz, Beato has never left, weathering many a storm. However, the current downturn has been the hardest yet and forced the longtime entrepreneur to reinvent.

“It’s not that my business stopped entire-ly. I’m still booking weddings and book-ing bands,” Beato, who takes an annual test to renew his license, said. “But I have the gift of gab anyway. I’ve got to be able

to talk [in my line of work]. On the radio, there is no one to talk to and that is the scary part.

“The fi rst show that was one hour seemed to have lasted 14 hours. But now I need another hour it goes by that quickly. Peo-ple are calling and we’re playing records and e-mailing and questions. Between An-thony and I there is always something that I can talk about.”

Family and friends were the fi rst listen-ers and have continued to be the biggest supporters, even getting in on the act.

“Oh, absolutely — they are the biggest critics,” Beato, who had daughter, Christy, and son, Bobby, during his 40-year mar-riage to Maddie, said. “[Christy] basically helps me along the way. She’ll call me on the cell and she’ll text me and say, ‘Make sure you say the phone numbers.’ Since I’m always forgetting to say the phone numbers for people to call. So she’s my producer.”

Along with his family support system, there is one more helping hand that Beato credits for his successes.

“I give God all the credit for anything I’ve done and anything I’m doing,” Beato said. SPR

L i f e s t y l e s

By R. Kurt OsenlundMovie Rev iewer

There’s a shrewd and sincere dram-edy dying to get out from under the covers in “Love & Other Drugs,” a

movie that otherwise lets it all hang out, at least where stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway are concerned. Set in the world of 1990s pharmaceutical sales, it has a promising premise, following a hotshot drug rep (Gyllenhaal) who, in the midst of becoming the poster boy for Viagra, falls for a Parkinson’s patient (Hathaway) all too familiar with prescription meds. The fi lm can’t decide if it’s a fearless sex com-edy or a reach-for-the-Kleenex romance.

Which unfortunately causes it to fail on both levels. When Hathaway’s character isn’t around (and, initially, even when she is), “Drugs,” directed and co-written by Edward Zwick and adapted from a non-fi ction book by Jamie Reidy, is a sort of testosterone-pumped male-dominance fantasy, where women are easy puzzles to solve and even the requisite overweight clown (Josh Gad) gets to bed a hottie. As if knowing such an approach would limit its audience, the movie then stirs in a semi-tragic love story, which is largely well-acted by Hathaway, but even within her performance feels phony and fabricated.

Gyllenhaal, though always a welcome presence, offers a backwards interpreta-tion of his character, fi rst failing to con-vey a much-discussed despicability, then going cold when the antihero is allegedly warming up to his love interest. A lot of blame falls on Zwick, who’s known for sprawling epics but has far less of a handle on small moments. Scenes in which his leads measure each other up are crawling

with pretense, and their ultimate declara-tions of love are milked to a remarkably cloying extent.

The fi lm’s distinction is it’s a Hollywood product uncharacteristically comfortable with nudity. But all the skin-showing grows increasingly uncomfortable, not unlike the blown opportunity to do some real justice to Parkinson’s sufferers. Simply put, the movie isn’t good enough to tackle serious issues or warrant ample sex. You especial-ly feel sorry for Hathaway, who should’ve waited for something better than “Drugs” in which to fl aunt her jugs.

Love & Other DrugsRTwo reels out of fourNow playing in area theaters

Cairo TimePGAvailable Tuesday

Patricia Clarkson takes on her fi rst ro-mantic leading role in “Cairo Time,” fi lm-maker Ruba Nadda’s gentle tale of fl eet-ing love. Clarkson is stunning (if overly understated), but the real star of the fi lm is Cairo itself, captured and swooned over in a way that calls to mind the Tokyo of “Lost in Translation.” SPR

Ailing opportunity

Flaws in punishment

My father was a police offi cer. He came home one morning after his night shift with his police coat in

shreds. A woman had attacked him with a butcher knife when he tried to break up a domestic dispute. We worried every time he went out the door wondering whether he would ever come back. If he had been killed in the line of duty, I can imagine my mother would have been another coura-geous Maureen Faulkner. And yet, I de-cided a long time ago that I couldn’t abide capital punishment even for a convicted cop killer. Capital punishment is often ar-bitrary and selectively applied, especially in a state like Texas, where the poor and even people with mental retardation have dispassionately been put to death.

It is not as if I feel Mumia Abu-Jamal is innocent. His conviction seems just to me. I was doing a public affairs talk show one Sunday morning on WYSP-FM discuss-ing the controversial aftermath of the cold-blooded murder of Offi cer Daniel Faulkner when Ramona Africa called me on the air claimung to have incontrovertible proof of Abu-Jamal’s innocence. I invited her to fax me the proof. I am still waiting. So this column isn’t about me joining the “Free Mumia” movement.

I have always felt that for folks like me who don’t believe in capital punishment, you do your cause a disservice when you make Abu-Jamal your poster boy. On the other hand, if you think capital punish-ment is meted out unevenly then in a way Abu-Jamal makes your case.

Abu-Jamal will never be executed for two reasons — the endless appeals pro-cess in Pennsylvania and his celebrity sta-tus. In a state where no one is executed, there is no capital punishment despite the appearance of the law on the books. But a shorter appeals process in Pennsylvania won’t change the arbitrary nature of capi-tal punishment. We all know who would be put to death and who would not, and we are fooling ourselves if we think the decision would be based on the nature of the crime rather than race and the compe-tency of the attorney.

I fi nd the list of celebrities who have joined Abu-Jamal’s cause to be repugnant, even though I share their desire to end capital punishment. Celebrities such as Ed Asner had to convince themselves that Ja-mal is innocent. It wasn’t enough to argue the capricious nature of the death sentence. They had to make him a hero. Jamal is no

hero; he is a convicted killer.Celebrities tend to embrace inmates who

have some kind of artistic talent. Caryl Chessman, the “Red Light” bandit back in the 50s, was convicted of 17 counts of rape, robbery and kidnapping. The case became a sensation with a number of notable au-thors, and even William F. Buckley, plead-ing his case. Chessman, who was bright and articulate, defended himself in various articles, including authoring a book. He was fi nally executed even as another stay of execution was being granted too late to save him from the gas chamber.

There was also Jack Henry Abbott, a career criminal who wrote “In the Belly of the Beast” in prison. Author Norman Mailer was the most notable celebrity who was entranced by Abbott’s literary abilities and won him his freedom. Abbott soon murdered a waiter in a New York res-taurant and wound up back behind bars. He committed suicide in 2002.

In many ways, the talented Abu-Jamal reminds me of those notorious cases. He has entranced the celebs in much the same way with his verbal and writing skills. It didn’t take long for Asner, Mike Farrell and others to fall head over heels in love with Jamal, portraying him as the vic-tim instead of the murdered offi cer that he gunned down. All kinds of imaginary loopholes were spread around. Another faux conspiracy was hatched. It is as if celebs can’t believe that anyone who has some measure of talent can be guilty of murder. The poor and the forgotten lan-guish on death row while these celebs are cheerleading for Abu-Jamal’s innocence around the world. And therein lays the es-sential unfairness of who is put to death and who isn’t in America.

I respect those victims’ families whose loss hangs over their lives like a perpetual cloud. I cannot argue with those who feel that the death of the convicted killer is the only thing that will bring a semblance of peace and closure to their lives. I especially respect the bravery and persistence of Maureen Faulkner in fi ghting the lies spread by some of the sup-porters of Mumia Abu-Jamal. But I also can-not forget that, especially for those who were convicted before the discovery of DNA, the innocents who have been condemned to death, some of whom were executed, like in a Texas recent case, before their innocence was proven. Death is too fi nal a punishment for a system that has all too many fl aws.

We have a system of government found-ed on the belief that it is better that some who are guilty escape punishment than for one innocent person to be victimized. If it means that in order to avoid putting an in-nocent person to death, we have to tolerate the preening and distasteful spectacle of Mumia Abu-Jamal, then with heavy heart, I say so be it. SPR

Mercy Starts With Me

Mercy gave me a new lease on life!” “

1.888.690.2551www.mercyhealth.org/homehealth

Patricia PrelleMercy Home Health

Patient

Although I’ve lived with diabetes for over 25-years, after major surgery I was unable to control my sugar levels. My doctor recommended Mercy Home Health for the Telehealth Monitoring program. Every morning I tested my blood sugar, weight and blood pressure. My results were electronically sent to my Home Health nurse who called or visited me if any results were outside my normal range. Now that’s quality care!

The Telehealth Monitoring program gave on-the-spot results which allowed me to better manage my diabetes and my overall health. I’m now focused on living a healthier lifestyle and as a result I’ve lost weight, my blood pressure is stable and my sugar levels are under control. I now have more energy than I have had in years.

At 72 years young, Mercy has given me a new lease on life!

DO NOT BUY DEL MONTE PRODUCTSDEL MONTE FRESH PRODUCE, N.A.

Undermines working conditions in the Port of Philadelphia

Support the INTERNATIONAL LONGSHOREMEN’S ASSOCIATION In its effort to maintain working conditions in the Port of Philadelphia.

International Longshoremen’s Association has no dispute with any person other than Del Monte Fresh Produce, N.A., and the ILA is not asking any individual To cease performing any services, or to refuse to pick up, deliver, handle or transport any goods. This document has been paid for with union funding.

BOYCOTT DEL MONTE FRESH FRUITTO ALL AMERICAN CONSUMERS: The International Longshoremen’s Association asks that during this traditional American holiday of giving thanks, you remember over 200 families who have been unnecessarily harmed by losing their jobs. The ILA and its members have serviced Del Monte Fresh Produce, N.A. through a stevedore

at the Pier 5, Camden, New Jersey facility for the past 22 years. ILA members have performed their duties professionally, efficiently, and with respect to Del Monte’s eco-nomic concerns. The ILA has never heard any complaints about its service or economics from this company. The employees that work on the terminal have been working

for the same wage rate that they were making 19 years ago and with the lowest pension plan in the industry as a result of keeping costs under control.

Del Monte vacated the facility even after the ILA met its demands of $5 million in additional cost reductions.

THIS IS AN ATTACK AGAINST AMERICAN WORKING STANDARDS, 2009 WAS THE WORST ECONOMIC YEAR SINCE THE DEPRESSION OF 1929

FACT: Del Monte had its 2nd Highest Sales year in 2009 following its record year in 2008 with over $3 billion in sales.

Del Monte’s “NET” Profit for 2009 was $144 million; in 2008 it was $157 million.

It is clear that the predominantly foreign ownership of Del Monte wants to exploit American workers to inflate its high profits. The replacement workers are being paid below industry standards so that they cannot afford to purchase homes in

the area. The liability for their medical benefits will fall on you the taxpayer.

PLEASE SUPPORT ThE ILA’S CAUSE . DO NOT BUY DEL MONTE PRODUCTS.

The ILA wishes you and your families a Happy Thanksgiving

toasted11 ounces of baby spinach3 yellow apples, cored, peeled and

diced into 1-inch chunks1 cup of red grapes (or raisins),

sliced in half1/2 cup of banana pepper chips1/4 cup of gorgonzola chunksFresh cracked pepperLeftover turkey (optional)

D I R E C T I O N S :Toast the walnuts for about two to

three minutes in a shallow sauté or frying pan. Remove to a cool plate.

In a large mixing bowl, add the spin-ach, apples, grapes or raisins. Add

the banana pepper chips. Add the turkey if desired. Sprinkle with the Gorgonzola and walnuts. Crack fresh pepper on top.

Champagne VinaigretteI N G R E D I E N T S :1/4 cup of champagne vinegar1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard1 tablespoon of lemon juice, freshly

squeezed2 tablespoons of olive oil

D I R E C T I O N S :Stir all of the ingredients

together. Drizzle over salad and

toss. Place salad in a fes-tive display dish.

Thanksgiving dinner may be all planned out, but after all the relatives and friends leave, we all need ideas for using the leftovers. Mary Grace Gorman offers a quick and easy way

to freshen up the day after meal with her Apple and Walnut Salad. The resident of the 3100 block of South 17th Street offers an

alternative to aging Thanksgiving bird. Simply take the turkey out of the fridge and add it to her Apple and Walnut Salad with a Gor-gonzola Champagne Vinaigrette. SPR

As a restaurant critic, it would be a confl ict of interest and unethical for me to engage in any part of the

food business.If restaurant criticism and food writing

were not my profession, I would place my money on Marcie Turney and Valerie Sa-fran, the talented duo behind Lolita, Bindi, Verde, Open House and now Barbuzzo, their newest shining venture on 13th Street.

These women can do no wrong. If Bindi is an Indian restaurant, Barbuzzo is its Medi-terranean sister.

Fresh organic produce from local farms is the star here. Your meal can take you to France, Italy and Spain.

I visited Barbuzzo on two occasions, bring-ing along a book for company. I slid onto a stool at the marble-topped bar and met Wil-liam, the barkeep. He took good care of me without constantly asking questions.

A piping hot bowl of ribollita ($5) warmed me up immediately. The light homemade chicken stock was redolent with white beans, uniformly diced root vegetables, small homemade pasta twists, local greens and a hint of Parmesan cheese. Several slices of fresh baguette and small dish of top quality extra-virgin olive oil topped off my fi rst course.

I looked to France for absolutely perfect chicken liver and foie gras mousse ($7).

“This takes me right back to Paris,” I said as I spread the delectable whipped delight onto a slice of a toasted baguette.

The mousse is served in a small glass ramekin, the kind you use for cocktail sauce. A little mound of microgreens sat

on the plate.Barbuzzo features a Mediterranean buf-

fet ($15). You mosey over to the open kitchen counter and make your selection. I told William I wanted roasted carrots, buffalo mozzarella, roasted mushroom faro, sautéed local greens and the Medi-terranean olive mix.

The colorful dishes beautifully set off the white plate. Yellow and orange carrots were roasted with fresh lemon, thyme and a hint of honey for sweetness. I suspect the mozzarella is made in-house. It had a pillowy soft texture and went well with arugula pesto, toasted pignoli and a touch of balsamic vinegar.

Cooking faro properly can be tricky. Turney hit the mark. It was neither mushy nor overly toothy and was enhanced by wood-roasted mushrooms in olive oil.

The sautéed local greens were simply done and enhanced by garlic, a bit of chili pepper and bread crumbs toasted in olive oil.

The jumble of Mediterranean olives brought a smile to my face. They were of different sizes and different colors. I have adored olives ever since I tasted one for the fi rst time at age 2 when my chubby little hand plucked the olive from my fa-ther’s martini.

I wanted to try the pizza but I was too full. So the next day, the wind blew me back to Barbuzzo. I sat on a wooden booth because Barbuzzo is relatively dark but there was a light overhead. I read my newspaper and sipped Schuylkill punch.

For starters, the roasted beet and grape-fruit salad ($7) was four-star. Fresh red

and yellow beets were roasted, cooled and thickly sliced. Peeking between them were the supreme of ruby red grapefruit. The plate also contained creamy goat cheese, fried Tuscan kale and was topped with pesto prepared with pistachio nuts. My server brought me a sliced baguette to enjoy with my starter.

Pizza is all the rage now. The lardo pizza ($13) was prepared with a thin crust and topped with wood-roasted mushrooms, fi or di latte, pecorino for a bit of saltiness, artichokes and caramelized leeks. This is a vegetarian delight.

A mug of organic Earl Grey with lemon ($3) was soothing, but I needed something sweet. The budino ($8) is a masterpiece of slightly salty caramel, chocolate and a whipped topping all layered in a deep, round glass. If you grew up on chocolate pudding and graduated to pot de crëme

after your fi rst visit to France or a French restaurant, you will soar right out of the restaurant.

A few weeks ago I wrote Tria is a favor-ite Rittenhouse Square haunt. Barbuzzo has become my favorite whenever I am shopping along 13th Street. I know I will fi nd unusual gifts at these stores and will fi nd delicious sustenance at Barbuzzo.

Three extraordinary tips of the toque to Barbuzzo. SPR

T h e T o q u e S t o p s H e r e

With less than a week between Thanksgiving and Hanukkah, give your oven a break by pairing a southern classic alongside a Festival-of-Lights sta-ple. The holiday begins Wednesday at sundown.

By Phyllis Stein-NovackFood Columnist

Oy. What’s a good home cook to do?

Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights, begins at sundown Dec. 1, six days after Thanksgiving. Turkey latkes? I don’t think so.

Hanukkah is not a major Jewish holi-day. In fact, it is not mentioned in the bible. It is a historical event. It’s the story of Judah Maccabee, “The Hammer,” and his band of men who defeated the Syr-ians who desecrated the temple in Jeru-salem. The oil lamp which hangs over the ark did not have enough oil to keep it lit. Yet, a great miracle happened there and the oil lamp burned for eight days.

Because we enjoy foods fried in oil during the eight-day festival, I got to thinking about deep-frying. I have never deep-fried anything in my life. Suddenly, I began craving fried chicken with un-usual latkes.

I have a fear of deep-fat-frying. The kitchen could catch on fi re, I could burn the house down. I had to get over this ir-rational fear.

Who came to my rescue? My friend Chris Thames of course. He’s a Southern boy although he’s been up North so long he now calls himself a Yankee. Still you can take the boy out of the South.

Everyone in the know knows you must marinate chicken parts in buttermilk for at least 12 hours before you fry it. Per-haps the good-for-you bacteria and the tangy taste are the culinary culprits.

I bought an organic cut-up chicken and

a whole organic chicken from the Reading Terminal Market. Chris wanted to show how easy it is to cut it into eight pieces. He also told me to marinate the cut-up poultry in buttermilk overnight.

“Buttermilk adds acidity to the chicken and creaminess to the batter,” Chris said. “I use a mix of all-purpose fl our and self-rising fl our. I season it with black pepper.”

It was my job to get my hands dirty. Chris showed me how to double dip the chicken for the fryer.

“Take a piece of chicken out of the buttermilk, shake off excess buttermilk on paper towels, dip it into the fl our, shake off the excess and repeat the steps once more,” he said.

I had fun doing this. Use one hand for dredging the other for covering the chicken in the fl our.

We used a mix of Canola oil and veg-etable shortening for the fried chicken. We heated my pot and added the oil and shortening. Chris did a funny thing. He placed a long wooden chopstick in the hot oil.

“You know the oil is hot enough when the oil sizzles around the chopstick,” he said. “Always place the chicken in the hot oil away from you.”

We made potato latkes with a twist. We used three large Idaho potatoes and one large jewel yam. The potatoes were peeled and placed in the food proces-sor and grated. We switched to the steel blade and pulsed on and off until the po-tatoes were somewhat gritty.

After the chicken and latkes were drained on paper towels, we sat down to one delicious lunch.

■ Chris Thames’s ■Southern Fried Chicken

Ingredients:1 3-pound organic chicken, cut into

eight pieces1 quart of buttermilkAll-purpose fl our for dredgingSelf-rising fl our for dredgingFreshly ground black pepper, to taste4 inches of Canola oil, to coat the

bottom of a pan Directions:Place the chicken in a big glass bowl

and cover with the buttermilk. Cover with plas-tic wrap and r e f r i g e r a t e overnight.

Heat the oil over high heat. Remove each piece of the chicken from the but-termilk. Shake off the excess. Place in seasoned fl our, shake off the excess, dip in the buttermilk, dredge in fl our again. Shake off the excess.

Carefully place each piece of chick-en into the hot oil away from you. Repeat until all the chicken is in the pot. You may have to do this in two batches. When the chicken is brown on one side, turn it to the other side. The chicken will cook for about fi ve minutes on each side.

Drain on paper towels.Serves three to four.

■ Potato Latkes ■

Ingredients:3 large Idaho potatoes, peeled1 large jewel yam, peeled1/2 cup of matzo meal2 heaping tablespoons of fl ourKosher salt and freshly ground black

pepper, to taste4 large eggs, beatenCanola oilApplesauceSour cream

Directions:Cut the potatoes to fi t in the food

processor. Grate the potatoes and remove to a large mixing bowl. You may have to do this in batches depending upon the size of the processor.

Switch to the steel blade and pulse on and off until they are somewhat gritty.

Place them back into the bowl. Add the remaining ingredients except for the ap-plesauce and sour cream and mix well.

Heat enough Canola oil over medium-high to generously coat the bottom of two large skillets. Using an ice cream scoop, scoop the potatoes, place them in the hot oil, fl atten them with your fi n-gers and fry about three to four minutes on each side.

Drain on paper towels and serve im-mediately with the applesauce and sour cream. SPR

Your new best friendFLUFFERSFluffers is a sweet, 3 year old medium-haired cat who was returned to our shelter a few weeks back after being adopted as a kitten. Her owners were un-able to keep her when they moved into a new apartment. Fluffers is a quiet lady, who would

prefer a home that is calm. She may do best in a home with older children who are savvy about the emotions of a sensitive cat. Fluffers might like to live with another cat, so let us know if you are looking for a companion for the pet you’ve already got at home!

Thanksgiving day, another holiday goes by Thinking of life without you, brings

tears to my eyes Oh how I wish things were different, but I know that can’t be My life was fulfi lled when you were here with me

Holidays no longer feel special anymore I keep waiting for you to come walking through the doorAnd say with a grin how’s my girl, what’s for dinner? The world once so bright, is now painfully dimmer They say time heals all wounds, I have yet to see How this heartache lessens, you’resuch a part of me So I struggle and take one day at a time Remembering you’re with Our Lord, but you are still forever mine

Happy Thanksgiving My Precious Son Love Mommy, Daddy ,Paulie, Krissy ,Vinny ,Maria, Rachel, Jimmy, Angelyna Alyssa, Vincenzo, Vienna and many family and friends

Double-zing formationBy Joseph Myersrev iew staff wr iter

About to enter the prime of their lives, the players from Ss. Neu-mann-Goretti High School, 1736

S. 10th St., and South Philadelphia High School, 2101 S. Broad St., already have mastered persistence. Entering their an-nual Thanksgiving encounter, they will conclude their seasons short on wins but long on pride. From today’s 10 a.m. opening kickoff at the South Philadel-phia super site, 10th and Bigler streets, the two rivals will display 60 minutes of gratitude for being able to secure area bragging rights.

Neither team’s season included a play-off appearance, so the clash will give the victor’s campaign partial redemption. It also will provide hundreds of fans with the 76th meeting between the teams since 1934. Neumann-Goretti, a member of the Catholic League’s AA Division, seeks its 54th win and fi fth straight. Southern, a member of the Public League’s AAAA Silver Divi-sion, will go for their 20th series tri-umph. The schools have played three scoreless ties, the most recent being in 1956.

Second-year Neumann-Goretti coach Rich “Moose” Carfagno has described the game to his players as a life-or-death clash.

“I know it’s very important to the older generation of South Philly. You can see it in the older folks’ eyes that it means a lot. The younger kids might not get it be-cause the game doesn’t have as many fans in the stands as in years past. It’s not like it was years ago,” Carfagno, who learned fi rsthand of the classic game’s importance during a six-year stint as defensive coor-dinator for the Passyunk Square-based Saints.

Spearheading the Neumann-Goretti attack is senior quarterback Mark Stins-man, who will be responsible for execut-ing the game-specifi c schemes his team has spent weeks practicing. Considering his squads’ talent since his ascension, Carfagno noted he has leaned more on the passing game because of the confi -

dence he has in his quarterbacks, espe-cially Stinsman, who has launched 128 passes in nine games.

As for the signal caller, the praise and pressure he receives are just motivating elements of his job. The resident of the 100 block of Durfor Street believes the day will be all about not letting each other down in a game they will reminisce about for years to come.

“I know what is riding on this game. I’ve known about it since I was a kid, when my family and everybody around me would tell me about it,” Stinsman, who has passed for 601 yards and four touchdowns, said.

As a team leader, he also makes sure his teammates know about it.

“I have told them to treat it as a champi-

onship game. Losing just isn’t an option. Everybody is preparing like it’s the last time they’re going to play regardless if they’re seniors or freshmen,” he said.

On defense, senior defensive end Chad McPherson, a Southwest Philadelphia product, shares Stinsman’s sentiment.

Having allowed 306 points this season, McPherson and his mates are taking to heart what people have thought about their mediocre season. The standout defensive end has gone as far as to predict a win along with an individual contribution of three sacks.

“We kind of got stomped on all year and we want to show people we can hold [Southern] and end things right,” McPher-son said.

Because Carfagno believes momentum will be the key throughout, his 3-6 Saints will be instructed to strike quickly.

“The fi rst score will go a long way and although momentum is a fi ckle thing, I think our confi dence will carry us through,” he said.

STANLEY “STOSH” TUNNEY’S Rams lost 16 players from last season’s division-win-ning 6-5 team. This year’s edition features many athletes in their fi rst year of orga-nized competition. Various circumstances have dwindled the roster to the point that most of the players huddle up on both sides of the ball.

Two proud schools will look beyond losing seasons to score a Thanksgiving triumph.

Southern sophomore running back Wayne Brunson, top, will hope to find seams in the Neumann-Goretti defensive wall in the schools’ end-of-season holiday tilt.

“It’s a rebuilding year, but these boys are hard workers. They’re out there banging, win, lose or draw,” Tunney, in his seventh year with the school and third as head coach, said of his Lower Moyamensing bunch.

His 3-8 team has posted three shutouts, but its offense has endured fi ve white-washings.

“We have a good defense and are eager to match up with a solid team,” Tunney said.

The holiday battle will be the Rams’ fi rst game this year against a non-Public foe. The Saints contested three non-league games, picking up two wins. Though not used to the same competition, the players are familiar with one another off the fi eld.

“Many of our guys know their guys,” Tunney said. “This game will be a chance to extend friendships.”

For Rams’ senior quarterback Shakor McClery, it will be the culmination of ex-pectations he has built since September.

“I’m really motivated,” the resident of the 2300 block of South Hemberger Streets said of his fi rst brush with the Saints. “I’ll try to get everybody hyped up and to get a victory.”

When McClery is not launching

left-handed passes, he will play defensive end. At middle linebacker, he will fi nd fellow senior Henry Anhalt, an All-Pub-lic selection also psyched for his initial Thanksgiving tussle.

“They’re a good team. It should be fun,” the Mayfair resident, who plays for Southern through a cooperative spon-sorship with Parkway Center City High School, said of Neumann-Goretti.

Anhalt also serves as a fullback and minds neither playing two positions nor traveling for practices and games.

“It’s worth it for football,” he said. “Henry is great; he would sell tickets for

us if we needed him to,” Tunney said. Seeking his fi rst win against the Saints

as head coach, he cannot understate the day’s importance.

“This is our Super Bowl,” he said. “Turkey tastes a lot better when you win.” SPR

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.
