The Philadelphia Water Department is looking at Guerin Recreation Center and depaving to create green space.

■ By Bill ChenevertReview Staff Writer

It’s a classic South Philly scenario sparked by the Philadelphia Water Department’s ongoing strategic plan it calls Green City, Clean Waters – change is coming to 16th and Wolf streets,

and not everyone’s on board. The program aims to alleviate mounting pressures in the City’s sewage

system and water treatment facilities by install-ing infrastructure and creating green spaces that directly improve the health of the Schuylkill River. After successfully executing projects at Columbus Square Park, 12th and Wharton streets, and Her-ron Playground, 250 Reed St., and creating the City’s first porous street on the 800 block of Percy Street, the Water Department has set its sights on the Guerin Recreation Center, 2201 S. 16th St.

The City is confronted with watershed issues due to a structure of wastewater collection fairly typical for older cities called Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs). During dry weather, the city can appropriately treat sanitary sewage before it enters into 164 combined sewer outfalls along the Delaware and Schuylkill rivers and the Cobbs, Tookany/Tocany-Frankford and lower Pennypack creeks. It becomes more challenging during wet weather and seasons of snowmelt, when sanitary

sewage gets treated but untreated stormwater and meltwater gets dumped into our rivers and streams, threatening native species and inviting in invasive species and degrading the landscape.

These CSOs exist in the older parts of the city, including North, West and South Philly. And the Water Department’s newest site, at the Newbold-situated Guerin Rec. Center, is looking at a 2015 start date for construction. But it has already been years in the making.

“I first met with the community two years ago in ’12, that was the very beginning of the planning process,” Maggie Wood, a community planner and outreach specialist for the Water Department, said. “At Guerin Rec., we have an opportunity to man-age stormwater from the streets surrounding the Rec.

To the Editor: On behalf of my fellow commu-

nity directors and alternates of the Sports Complex Special Services District — we speak out on an is-sue that affects all South Philadel-phia families and businesses, not just those within closest proximity to the sports complex.

From all reports, on Nov. 18, the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board is expected to announce that 10th and Packer streets will be the site of the second Philadelphia ca-sino license, Live! Hotel and Ca-sino, an adjunct to Xfinity Live! This is deadly to us all.

Even now, the most immediate neighbors (three to 15 blocks) of the already congested sports com-plex area can not cope with the traffic, trash, noise, drunk drivers and headaches that a fully-operat-ing four-venue complex has gener-ated. Can anyone possibly tell us we can handle more and still sur-vive?

It’s not just traffic and more crowds that we fear, but worse, the

human suffering that a casino can render to those closest and most vulnerable to the false lure of gam-bling.

We need more quality schools, more libraries, more decent churches — surely not a casino. Anyone who wants a casino here is either making money from it or is simply completely unaware of the many negative consequences.

What about the fans who already pay high ticket prices, high park-ing prices, high concession prices, and who can barely leave the event on time? They are already forced to leave events early to beat un-bearable traffic jams. They should join our fight that 10th and Packer is the worst possible location for a casino.

The Sports Complex Special Services District has worked very hard over the past 11 years with volunteer community leaders in the lead to help migrate many of the problems endangered by a very busy event complex. A casino thrown into the midst of all that is

already here will surely push us all beyond the point where we can protect ourselves.

This is a very negative business in the worst location possible. Two wrongs will never be right!

Barbara Capozzi District Two Community Director

on behalf of the community direc-tors of the SCSSD

Insuring negotiations To the Editor:

Regarding Joseph Cirella’s letter, (“Physician, heal thyself,” Nov. 6) with respect, everyone who has health insurance built into their paycheck has to pay a premium. This can happen in one of two ways: Receive a higher pay and take out what is needed for the pre-mium. The alternative is to receive a lower pay and have the employer pick up the premium. It is all part of the wage package.

In their last contract with the SRC, district teachers negotiated for less pay and to have their insur-ance premiums paid by the school district. When the contract expired, and the school district went into distress, those same teachers of-

fered to pay for their health insur-ance without a raise. This amount-ed to a pay cut. The SRC rejected that offer with no explanation and allowed the contract to expire.

After more than a year with no contract and no raises, the SRC unilaterally canceled the whole deal and insisted that the teach-ers pay for their health insurance, as if the offer were never made, in effect canceling collective bar-gaining. Of course, the union sued and so far has won the first round. It will wind its way through the courts, but the union has a strong case for an illegal and unfair labor practice.

I also recall the 1940s and early ’50s as being punctuated by WWII and the Korean War, just so Amer-ican students could exercise their right of free speech without fear.

Spousal spat

Police arrested a South of South man for allegedly

striking his wife with a gun.n By Joseph Myers

Review Managing Ed itor

Venturing to the 1800 block of Catha-rine Street at 3:42 a.m. Friday, au-thorities met the complainant on the corner and observed blood coming

from her head, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Telling them her partner had hit her with a gun, she led the police to her residence, where positive identification led to his arrest.

Law enforcement officials also recov-ered and confiscated narcotics from the home based on a search incident to arrest and executed a search warrant to discover the firearm. The victim received trans-port to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. Her mate, 66-year-old Ed-die Griffin, awaits a Dec. 8 status hearing on charges of possession of an instrument of crime, assault, firearms violations and Controlled Substances Act offenses.

Alleged robber in custody

On Friday, police arrested a man for supposedly accosting three women in two October incidents.

As first reported in the Oct. 23 South Philly Review as “Point taken,” two wom-en contacted authorities just after 2 a.m. Oct. 12 to tell them an unknown male had approached them on the 2700 block of South Marvine Street after they left Cheech’s Bar, 2654 S. 12th St. The man pointed a black revolver at them and de-manded “Give me what you got, or I will shoot you.” The first complainant threw to the ground whatever cash she had on her, grabbed the other female and ran home. Authorities released an image of the man two weeks ago based on surveillance foot-age prior to, during and after the robbery.

At 6:20 a.m. Oct. 31, another woman was walking inside Marconi Plaza, 2700 S. Broad St., when a stranger approached her and barked “Give me your phone, bitch,” Detective Danielle Tolliver of South De-tective Division said. The figure then took her white Samsung cell phone, valued at $330, from her hand and pushed her to the ground before running through the plaza.

On Oct. 24, having watched the depart-ment’s YouTube account, a person came forward to identify the supposed aggres-

sor, leading the first and third complain-ants to come to police headquarters, where they identified Dominic DiGiacomo, Tol-liver said. Obtaining warrants, authorities went to a Northeast Philly residence and arrested the 30-year-old, charging him with possession of an instrument of crime, assault, recklessly endangering another person, making terroristic threats, harass-ment, robbery, theft and firearms viola-tions. Court records indicate that Judge David C. Shuter found him in contempt of court and sentenced him to a five- to 10-day stint in jail.

Supposed slasher nabbed

Police arrested a Pennsport woman for allegedly slashing another female Satur-day.

At 8:30 p.m., the complainant was be-hind the Wawa, 1600 S. Columbus Blvd., when the suspected individual pushed her to the ground and began slashing her with a six-inch knife, Detective Danielle Toll-iver of South Detective Division said. Suf-iver of South Detective Division said. Suf-iver of South Detective Division said. Suffering a cut on her left arm, she managed to push the reported offender away and started to run westbound on Tasker Street in search of help.

Officers arrived and transported her to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. Tolliver said the authorities were familiar with the alleged attacker and also took her to the medical facility, where the victim identified her as the perpetrator of the mo-tiveless crime.

Police arrested Kathleen O’Connor, of the 1600 block of South Fourth Street, and charged the 27-year-old with possession of an instrument of crime, making terror-istic threats, assault and recklessly endan-gering another person.

Depicted depravity

On Friday, the Philadelphia Police De-partment released footage of two men sought in a Whitman burglary.

As first reported in the Nov. 6 South Philly Review as “Savage behavior,” au-thorities responded to an alarm sounding at Savage Services, 52 E. Oregon Ave., at 2:47 a.m. Nov. 4, discovering that someone had cut the fence surrounding the business and had also broken an office trailer win-dow. Detectives observed video footage of

7*The Accelerated Death Benefit may or not qualify for a favorable tax treatment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. This depends on factors such as your life expectancy at the time benefits are accelerated or whether you use the benefits to pay for required qualified long-term expenses. If the Accelerated Death Benefit qualifies the Benefit will not be subject to federal income taxation. Tax laws relating to the Accelerated Death Benefits are complex. You should consult with a tax advisor about how you can receive the Accelerated Death Benefit excludable from income under federal law. In addition, receipt of the Accelerated Death Benefit may affect your family’s eligibility for public assistance programs such as medical assistance (Medicaid), Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AGDC), supplementary social security income (SSI) and drug assistance programs. You should consult with social service agencies concerning how receipt of such payment will affect eligibility for public assistance. See rider for terms, conditions, and restrictions.

Twisted logicPolice are looking for a man who robbed

a popular Pennsport establishment.Responding to a report of a burglary at

Philly Soft Pretzel Factory, 2655 S. Third St., authorities reached the site at 5:50 a.m. Saturday and met with the manager, who reported that shortly after arriving for her job that day, she noticed the cash register on the floor and its drawer damaged, De-tective Danielle Tolliver of South Detec-tive Division said. Reviewing video foot-age, police observed that a man failed to open the drawer after entering the location at approximately 3 a.m., ventured to an upstairs office and stole $100 from a spare drawer and $1,700 from a small safe.

The footage depicts the offender, who walked eastbound along Oregon Avenue toward Second Street after the offense, as being of an unknown race, 5-foot-8 to 5-foot-10 and 230 to 250 pounds; and wearing a hoodie and gloves.

Devilish duoTwo males assaulted and robbed a man

in Lower Moyamensing two weeks ago. As he walked on 10th Street just south of

Snyder Avenue at 5 a.m. Oct. 26, the com-plainant suffered punches from the un-known individuals, who had approached him from behind, Detective Danielle Toll-iver of South Detective Division said. With their target on the ground, the figures took his cell phone, wallet and $480.

The victim then received more punches and kicks before he was able to run from the men. The blows left him with minor cuts and scrapes to his neck and shoulder, but he did not require immediate medical treatment.

He described both aggressors as Hispan-ic, with the first being in his mid 20s and 5-foot-5 to 5-foot-6; having a small mus-tache and cornrows; and wearing a black hoodie; and the second as in his mid 20s, 5-foot-4 and 140 pounds; having a close cropped beard; and wearing a backwards baseball cap.

Monetary mischief

Police are looking for two people who pulled off a robbery in Point Breeze last month.

At 12:50 a.m. Oct. 20, an unknown male entered Lids Cafe, 2243 Tasker St., casing the establishment for nearly 20 minutes before departing, only to return a short time later. Acting as a patron, he posi-tioned himself to gain a view of the entire bar, with video footage catching a female accomplice entering the establishment.

The woman immediately walked behind the bar and simulated that she had a firearm in demanding money from the bartender, who gave her an undisclosed amount of cash. The suspects entered a minivan and fled in an unknown direction.

Get Up, Stand UpCity Councilman

Kenyatta Johnson’s Stand Up, Man Up initiative is aimed

at South Philly youth in danger.

n By Bill ChenevertReview Staf f W riter

It’s getting dark on Friday night in Point Breeze and on the 1600 block of South Ringgold Street, there are a good eight to 10 young men hanging out in front

of someone’s home. Second District City Councilman Kenyatta Johnson walks up to them to tell them about his Stand Up, Man Up program, which holds a service and conversation Fri., Nov. 14 5 to 7 p.m. at the Church of the Redeemer, 1440 S. 24th St., around the corner from Ringgold Street.

“I was very excited to go out – Friday evenings are when you find a lot of mis-chief taking place. We strategically wanted to go out on a Friday night to talk to men on the corners to talk about our Stand Up, Man Up initiative,” Johnson explained. “I’ve always had a vision of peace, not guns, for the communities of Point Breeze, Greys Ferry and South Philadelphia as a whole.”

As a product of Point Breeze, Johnson has seen it all.

“I had a cousin and several of my friends that were murdered during the time around 1996 to ’98, and I watched several of my friends and cousins fall victim to gun vio-lence, senseless acts of gun violence,” he said. “That’s where my passion comes from.”

The Councilman calls South 18th and Dickinson streets his childhood home, but it wasn’t until he left for college that his eyes were opened up. “I believe firmly the more you expose young men to things other than their immediate environment, it will broaden their horizons and they begin to think about the different possibilities of what they can be,” he said. “Having the op-portunity to go to Mansfieled University, to see the world was bigger than 18th and Dickinson, I had no idea there was a whole other world out there waiting for me.”

That’s what he’s hoping Stand Up, Man Up can do for at-risk youths in South Phil-adelphia. And what does at-risk mean? “Those who are likely to commit an act of violence and those who are predisposed to falling victim to an act of violence,”

the resident of the 1800 block of Manton Street said.

15- to 24-year-olds are the primary tar-get of his campaign, and he aims to show them that there is a way off the streets; to connect with resources, leaders, mentors and positive role models to show them that there are great rewards for making positive life choices.

“Homicide rates amongst African-Amer-ican young men between 15 to 24 are amongst the highest in the country,” John-son pointed out.

Dr. Charles Williams, a longtime Phila-delphia activist, writer and current director of Drexel University’s Center for the Pre-vention of School-Aged Violence, will be on hand at tomorrow’s service. It will be moderated by Rev. Omari Hughes from the Church of the Redeemer, and Johnson said “this is all in an effort to start the dialogue and engage in some life lessons with indi-viduals who’ve quote-unquote been there and done that as a way to encourage and inspire our young men to become positive influences in their own communities.”

As an incentive, they’ll be giving away Eagles and Sixers tickets and Villa Shoes gift certificates.

Things may look better than they did in ’98, but the Councilman said, despite the gruesome violence, there used to be some rules of decency that are no longer. “Now there’s no code,” he noted, not condoning any form of violence, but saying “When I was a kid, no one would shoot at a kid or a woman or shoot at someone in front of their parents, which goes on on a regular basis now.”

Giving praise to a couple local resources, Johnson said if it weren’t for some key leaders, he may have never made it out himself. “If it wasn’t for community lead-ers taking some time and talking to me and encouraging me and getting me involved in programs such as the Christian Street

Y [1724 Christian St.] and the Peacemak-ing Program at the Dixon House [1920 S. 20th St.], I could have also fallen down the wrong path,” he said.

I asked Johnson, on our walk around Pt. Breeze towards the Vare Rec. Center, 2600 Morris St., if he can pinpoint a source of so many young men’s inclinations to turn to the streets and he said it’s about families falling apart. “I think it’s a result of the el-ders of the community not stepping up and intervening and discouraging all kinds of violence but also mentoring and showing these young men how to become positive and productive members of their environ-ment,” he added.

There is a target demographic Johnson’s campaign is aiming for, but he welcomes all kinds of South Philadelphians to par-ticipate. “Our event will be open, so if parents want to bring some young men that are younger, they’re more than wel-come to bring them,” he said. Adding “You can be from Grays Ferry, Point Breeze, Hawthorne, Packer Park, any young man who has an interest in attending the fo-rum, especially around the issue of gun violence, we welcome them to come andparticipate.” SPR

to parks throughout the City.” Through this process, the Water Dept.’s

primary goal is to use its budget to focus on ecological health, but in doing so, it aims to interact with the community and perhaps offer simultaneous improvements to the space in question.

“The focus for the water department is on stormwater management, but what we try to do is work with the community as much as possible to suit other needs as well,” Wood said.

Meaning, the Department is going to come in and dig up parts of Guerin Rec. by right because the land is public and owned by the City. But if community members are interested, they can help establish a green space or community garden. Green spaces are something the company greatly encour-ages.

“In our first community meeting, there was some interest from a number of people about having more green space on the site and when we provide more green space it does help to manage stormwater – we like to encourage green space as much as pos-sible,” Wood explained.

Naturally, this is South Philly and park-ing seems to be one of the only reasons area residents cite for having no inter-est in any green space. Or at least, of the two projected plans of ripping up some of Guerin’s parking lot, a small but vocal mi-nority would prefer the smaller green space or none at all.

“So basically something’s going to hap-pen there, and the question is what will it look like and what will we do with it as

a community?” Levana Layendecker, the president of the Newbold Civic Asso-ciation and resident of the 2200 block of South Hicks Street, said.

Her civic focuses on a good deal of Broad to 18th Street south of Snyder, as well, in-cluding parts of West Passyunk Avenue.

“There’s a difference of opinion,” she said.

Wood and the Water Department have had multiple meetings with the community at the center, and the past couple have in-cluded mockups of potential plans.

“They came back this year, in August, to the civic and the staff of the Rec. Cen-ter and said ‘Here are some plans that we have.’ We sat down with them and gave them some immediate feedback, and they

made some relatively minor adjustments and brought it back to present to our Civic Association in September,” Layendecker said.

At those two meetings, a large major-ity of attendees voted for the larger green space, in fact, Layendecker said “when we had the second meeting, we had 53 people there and by show of hands about 50 peo-ple voted for the larger green space.”

But the recreation center has a huge parking lot that can accommodate nearly 70 spots but the lot can be used only when there’s an event at the Center.

“[The lot] is zoned for parking when there’s an event at the rec center. It’s not even supposed to be used for general park-ing purposes, and I think that space is huge.

It’s plenty big so that we can have park-ing when there’s an event,” Judy Moon, a resident of the 2100 block of South 16th Street and an active gardener, said. “Park-ing seems to be the biggest complaint – that seems to be the biggest kink in the chain.”

Moon, a vocal advocate for greening spaces in Newbold, added there was even opposition to the rec. center’s mural that was completed in ’09.

“I do believe that people come from far away to play bocce, and I think we’re the only indoor bocce court in the city,” Layen-decker said. “As someone who’s concerned about preserving the history of our neigh-borhood, I’m perfectly willing to accom-modate that people are coming from far away.”

Guerin’s manager, Debbie Darroyo, wouldn’t comment without the permission of her boss, who is on vacation. She did say some folks on Mole Street would be eager to voice concerns.

There’s still time for area residents to be vocal at an essentially final meeting with the Water Department in early ’15.

“When they come back with the plan, it will be more detailed about how they would divide up the space and where the gates on the fences will be, infrastructure that they can provide in order to give us some of the things that we’re interested in and what they can’t provide,” Layendecker said.

The civic and area Marconi residents may be tasked with raising money if they want to get ambitious. She is optimistic, though, saying “98 percent of the people who par-ticipated are really in favor of this, and that’s not just new people that just moved here. It’s a good thing.” SPR

n By Joseph MyersReview Managing Ed itor

Courtesy of her Lehigh County upbringing, Kathy Meck has developed an affinity for inclusivity, deem-ing downtrodden denizens worthy of as much, if not more, attention and affection as fortunate figures.

Forever eager to improve prospects for disadvantaged individuals, the 31-year-old director of development for Bethesda Project, 1630 South St., is serving as co-creator

and overseer of Nov. 17’s Sweet & Savory Battle Against Hunger, her organization’s chief contribution to National Hunger & Homelessness Awareness Week.

“We have passion for our work, which is to treat people with dignity and respect, and this event will go a long way toward promoting our mission,” the resident of the 400 block of South Street said from her place of employ-ment, which will hold the fundraiser at the University City-situated International House Philadelphia. “We’re here to be family to those who have none, and that’s es-pecially vital at this time of year.”

The Queen Village occupant and colleague Yarissa

Reyes are executing the event as a call to compassion and commitment, with Meck particularly pumped about continuing to crusade for more resources and regard for social outcasts’ rejuvenation. Six months into her tenure with Bethesda, she has come to consider the entity her professional home and expects Monday’s gathering to pinpoint the pertinence of registering responsibility for all.

“I think being mindful of that affects the quality of my life,” she said. “I’ve had so many positive experiences to feed my fire, so I’m happy to link my thinking with Bethesda’s mindset.”

A Queen Village dweller is aiding her organization’s familial focus by helping to helm a dual-themed fundraiser.

Having engaged in numerous conversa-tions with vendors and businesses, Meck, as has become her wont when taking on tasks, wants others to bask in the fruits of her labors, with next week’s celebration aiding not only Bethesda’s 14 locations and thousands of homeless and formerly home-less clients but also local culinary students. Their appetizers and desserts will compete for distinction, with Scott Schroeder, of American Sardine Bar, 1800 Federal St., and South Philadelphia Tap Room, 1509 Mifflin St., judging their handiwork. The evening extravaganza will also feature the premiere of “Perseverance with Dignity,” a documentary detailing Philadelphia’s ef-a documentary detailing Philadelphia’s ef-a documentary detailing Philadelphia’s efforts and struggles to conquer homeless-ness, an especially timely aspect of Na-tional Hunger & Homelessness Awareness Week, which will begin Saturday and run through Nov. 23.

“This is our first battle against hunger, and though it’s yet to happen, I’m already thinking about how we can attract more people for future promotions and fund-raisers in this vein,” Meck offered. “With Bethesda, I find myself constantly pon-dering how I can help us to help others because in the end, that’s what it’s about, being in a position where, having known what it’s like for people to care for us, we

know how to go forth and help others. I’m very interested in happy outcomes, which is why I believe this is where I’m meant to be.”

The emmaus naTnaTna ive has been honing her hankering for harmonious outcomes since her high school days, when she came to see volunteering as a viable venture for enhancing community growth. Blessed with parents who fostered empathy for the global family, she sought out the City of Brotherly Love and Sisterly Affection for her undergraduate journey, matriculating at Drexel University as an economics and international area studies major.

“Being in a big city was an eye-opener,” Meck said of leaving her middle-of-the-sticks background behind to intensify her identity in a bustling metropolis. “I got a taste of everything at Drexel, especially through my co-op opportunities.”

Grasping the “vast array of needs” inhib-iting societal maturation, including educa-tional woes and equality lapses, she earned a public administration graduate degree through Kutztown University of Pennsyl-vania, an institution that helped to clarify her courtship of a leadership role.

“I feel going for my masters helped to pull everything together,” Meck said of the

decision that, among other boons, yielded a trip to Mississippi as part of Hurricane Katrina relief efforts. “I knew I wanted to address so many issues and apply certain skills while picking up others.”

Her fire stoked, she acquired positions with Miller-Keystone Blood Center and The Baum School of Art before return-ing to Philadelphia, following her heart and listening to her Type A personality to believe her collegiate city would promote professional growth. Thinking nothing can eclipse education, she obtained a senior grant writer post with the Old City-head-quartered Center for Literacy, eventually becoming its director of development and marketing.

“I aspired to have such a job by the time I reached 30, so I love that I was able to help another organization so enthused about benefiting others,” Meck said of her three-year stint with the employer.

Desiring more integration in her devel-opment pursuits, she looked for similarly socially conscious companies to bolster and started with Bethesda, which she clas-sified as her “wild card” because of initial hesitancy about joining a mission with an overt religious nature, in May. During that time, she has realized even more ad-mirably that regardless of one’s faith alle-

giance, compassion and care must rule the day when ministering to the lowly.

“It’s amazing how positive and caring everyone is,” Meck said. “There’s a tre-mendous level of consistency and compas-sion, and that’s beneficial to sample and do my best to increase.”

When not figuratively helping Bethes-da’s clients to put their best foot forward in defeating homelessness, she literally keeps pace as a committed runner, with next week’s participation in the half-marathon marking her fourth straight appearance in the Philadelphia Marathon. In a world short on certainty, Meck uses each trek to “check in with myself” and build an im-mense sense of tranquility. No matter the circumstances surrounding the completion of a course, she never fails to finish, a mes-sage definitely applicable to Bethesda-aid-ed individuals when they wage campaigns against their ills.

“I’m fortunate for these opportunities to help,” Meck said, “and I will continue to set the bar high.” SPR

Cardella’s guide to losing

The experts called last week’s election results across the nation a Republican “wave.” One bright spot. In Pennsyl-vania, incumbent Gov. Tom Corbett

found out that the Republican tide did not lift his boat. But, alas, Democrats found out they had better start taking swimming les-sons, too. The president made the election about himself, and now the Democrats are angrier with him than Republicans.

At Fox News, the good old boys and blonde female news anchors needed several changes of underclothes in the joyful after-math of conservative success. At MSNBC, white liberals shoved Rev. Al Sharpton front and center to explain how people still love President Barack Obama despite the deba-cle. Tough sell, Rev. We kept concentrating on that one ray of hope — Pennsylvania. How smart you’ve become. Corbett tried to explain why he is “proud” to be a one-term governor. It is not easy to lose if one is an incumbent governor in Pennsylvania, where most voters think the term of office for their chief executive is eight years.

As a public service to those of you, Re-publican or Democrat, whose favorite can-didates lost last week, here is my guide on how to face the reality of political defeat:

Voter fraud — (Warning-this excuse works only for Republicans in Pennsyl-vania) —Those bums stole the election. If only the Court hadn’t struck down the implementation of Voter ID laws here in Pennsylvania, Corbett would’ve won in a landslide. Note-this rationale requires you to believe that only Republicans have a driver’s license or a copy of their birth cer-tificate. It is also true that the more extreme conservatives among you believe you ought to have to show country club membership to vote.

Losing Democrats, who opposed Voter ID laws, face the dilemma of trying to fig-ure out a way to suppress the Republican vote around the rest of the country. The problem is that Republicans always vote. They are an angry minority, and they vote their anger. Democrats, on the other hand, particularly younger voters, tend to sleep-in on Election Day unless legalizing pot is on the ballot.

Campaign money — Democrats like to blame big money for influencing the elec-tions they lose. In Pennsylvania, money was good. Tom Wolf’s money. A year ago, no one in this state knew Tom Wolf from Wolf Blitzer — though they do both have gray beards. Wolf’s money got him the nomina-

tion before the other Democratic candidates knew what hit them. Winning the election against Corbett was a snap. Winning the Democratic nomination took money.

We didn’t get our message out — This is the most common theme of losers. They would have loved us if only they had known us better. Both parties and loyal followers have used this little bit of self-delusion for years, but it works to make losers feel better. There is a basic human need to feel that we are loved despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. The president proudly pro-claimed during the campaign that his poli-cies were on the ballot. So if you’re Obama, how do you square the Republican wave of election night success with the belief that most voters like what you have done for the last six years? (a fact confirmed by the polls). Easy. Just repeat after me: We need to do a better job of getting our message out. Translation: Who do those dumb-ass voters think is pushing for a higher mini-mum wage?

Dumb-ass voters — Losing politicians can never question the wisdom of the vot-ers, at least in public. However, the rest of us do it all the time. Every time our candi-date loses. Despite the fact that we are also voters. When our candidate loses, we set ourselves apart from the public. Make that above the public. By looking down our nos-es at the dummies who just voted “wrong,” we at least salvage a measure of superiority. We are able to overcome the feeling of re-jection. I have never believed the losers on Election Night, who begin their concession speeches with the words, “The voters have spoken and we accept their decision.” No. No. We never accept their decision. We re-alize that this is a democracy, and we can’t manage a putsch. But we sulk in stormy si-lence. In the darkest night of our souls, we curse the stupidity of the American voter. Horror of horrors, we rant on Facebook.

It doesn’t matter who won — This is the ultimate fallback position. After telling anyone who would listen how the world would end if the opposition won, we now shrug off the taunts of the victors by saying, “Doesn’t really matter.” Even when some wise guy reminds you that you promised to move to Canada if the opposition emerged victorious, you remain stoic. You feign am-nesia or an allergy to maple syrup. You are not leaving for Canada. That’s just what the opposition would like. They want you to leave America to their kind. Well, you’re not going to give them the satisfaction, and there’s another election in two years.

Canada will have to get along without us. We’ve got work to do to prevent voter fraud, stop the influx of corporate money and fig-ure out how to get our message out in time for the next election when Americans will have come to their senses.

In the meantime, Tom Wolf won. Na na na na na! SPR

n By R. Kurt OsenlundMovie Rev iewer

With “Capote,” director Bennett Miller chillingly explored the underbelly of New York’s lite-rati, plumbing the sordid details

of Truman Capote’s creation of “In Cold Blood.” With “Moneyball,” Miller went behind the scenes of Major League Base-ball’s drafting fraternity, giving insight into the ways capitalism and appearances can trump true talent. Now, with “Fox-catcher,” the filmmaker so adept at turning American institutions on their ears dives into the world of Olympic wrestling, ty-ing his study to the tragic true story of wrestler brothers Mark and Dave Schultz, and Dave’s coach turned murderer, John du Pont.

Just as the eponymous farm — where loaded scion John (Steve Carell) in-vites Mark (Channing Tatum) and Dave (Mark Ruffalo) to train for a supposedly Oympics-bound team — is literally built on the grave-filled battlegrounds of early American battles, “Foxcatcher” plays like a patriotic ghost story. A post-Reagan-era figure of profound delusions, John sees (and cites) his trainees as modern soldiers — patriots who deserve recognition other-wise denied them by their country.

But any goodwill John possesses is trumped by his ever-burgeoning paranoid schizophrenia, the apparent result of his own stifled athletic dreams and, perhaps, repressed sexual appetites. Miller cap-tures all of this in an often silent mode of glorious gloom, wherein every carefully considered frame is fraught with dread. Moreover, he adds his film to the presti-gious man-to-man combat canon, filming his subjects in an odd ballet of bodies, which can turn from brotherly to brutal in an imperceptible instant.

Miller has coached at least two actors, the late Philip Seymour Hoffman (“Ca-pote”) and Brad Pitt (“Moneyball”), to

deliver the finest performances of their careers. And though much of this film’s buzz highlights the eerie and prosthetic-caked Carell, in “Foxcatcher,” Miller does the same for Tatum, a performer who’s never gone to such raw and shattering places. Merging his “Magic Mike” physicality with an increasingly impressive dramatic range, Tatum officially graduates from box-office draw to bona fide actor, playing a naïve and internally tormented warrior to the hilt. Of all the reasons to see this layered, articulate drama, Tatum’s work stands on top.

“Sin City: A Dame to Kill For”RAvailable Tuesday

In Frank Miller and Robert Rodri-guez’s CGI sequel, “Sin City: A Dame to Kill For,” fans won’t get all the great-ness they loved about the 2005 original. But they will get a whole lot of returning cast members (like Jessica Alba, Rosario Dawson and Mickey Rourke), along with some new blood (like Eva Green, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Josh Brolin). The fol-low-up weaves together new stories from Miller’s stark world, with plenty of spurt-ing, hyper-saturated plasma. SPR

Thomas W. Gamba, D.D.S., F.A.C.D, F.I.C.D.

Dr. Thomas Gamba received his Bachelors degree from Villanova University in 1972 and graduated from Temple University’s School of Dentistry in 1976. He then joined his fa-ther’s practice and they worked together until his dad retired in 1985 after 51 years of practice. He has continuously practiced in Philadelphia since then.

In 1981, Dr. G (as he is affectionately known) was awarded Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry, signifying more than 500 hours of post-graduate education in

all phases of dentistry. He has also been honored with Fellowships in the American College of Dentists, the International Col-lege of Dentists and the Pierre Fauchard Academy. He has written several articles on dental ethics, which have been published in the Journal of the American Dental Associa-tion. He is a part-time clinical instructor at Temple’s dental school where he teaches and mentors dental students in the fine points of clinical practice. And he has been the consulting dentist for the Philadelphia Phillies for more than 20 years.

In addition to being deeply committed to his patients, many of whom he has been treating since they were children, Dr. G is also committed to his professional associa-tions. He has served the Pennsylvania Den-tal Association on the Board of Trustees, as Speaker of the House and, in 2008-09, as President. He has also been a member of two Councils of the American Dental Asso-ciation (ADA) including the Council on Ethics and is currently ADA Vice-President.

Tom and Cynthia Gamba were high school sweethearts and have been married since 1971. They have two grown children and two handsome grandsons. They are both life-long residents of South Philadelphia and proud of it.

A healthy mouth not only prevents cavities but also various gum diseases like Gingivitis and Periodontitis that can also cause early tooth loss if left untreated for even relatively short periods of time.

Dental Bridge-Ware is used to replace a missing tooth (teeth), by creating a fixed bridge from either side of the space then joining them together by placing a false tooth in the middle .

At Philadelphia Dental Arts we take pride in the real artwork required to make and personally match very good looking dental crowns

One of the most revolutionary advances in dental science is the use of dental implants to permanently and beauti-fully replace lost teeth.

Dental sealants protect the grooved and pitted surfaces of the teeth, especially the chewing surfaces of back teeth where most cavities are found.

At Philadelphia Dental Arts we believe mak-ing unique custom dental prosthetics for our patients is a real art and one we are dedicated to providing with excel-lence!

Fluoride treatment is one of the best defenses against tooth decay. Together with Dental Sealants, 95% of cavities can be prevented!

Root Canal Therapy is a wonderful method for saving a tooth that has been so significantly damaged by either decay or trauma that it has exposed the tooth pulp.

Dental arts is what we are all about and so beautiful white teeth are a particular specialty at Philadelphia Dental Arts!

At Philadelphia Dental Arts we use only the best composite materials to give the best look, comfort and strength!

Diving in head first

An intense demonstration of the question-able morals that often surround Ameri-can success, Theatre Exile’s production of the Lucas Hnath play "Red Speedo"

aims to cast a shadow much larger than the sum of its parts. Centered on Ray, a potential Olympic swimmer dealing with a budding PED scandal, and his brother/lawyer/sports agent Peter, it navigates familial bonds, be-trayal, and getting ahead at all costs. Keith J. Conallen, who gives a powerful performance as Peter, was born and raised in South Philly. He spoke with me this week about his excit-ing role.

SPR: So you’re originally from just off Oregon Avenue in South Philly. Right?

Conallen: “I’m basically from 15th and Oregon, that area—a part of St. Richard's Par-Oregon, that area—a part of St. Richard's Par-Oregon, that area—a part of St. Richard's Parish. I went to Neumann and my senior year I did the ‘Wizard of Oz’ there. I played the Tin Man. Then I went to Temple and their theatre program and from there the rest is history.”

SPR: Is it particularly enjoyable per-SPR: Is it particularly enjoyable per-SPR: Is it particularly enjoyable performing so close to where you grew up?

Conallen: It is. I was remarking to Debo-rah Block, who directed the piece and is also the artistic director of Theatre Exile, that it’s amazing where they’re situated in this very residential area where all the neighbors know each other, their kids go to school together and all the neighbors have an interest, an invest-ment in this company as well. It does remind me of growing up in South Philly and having this sort of insular upbringing that kept you very safe and comforted.

SPR: Has growing up in South Philly in-formed any of your characters? Not neces-sarily in "Red Speedo," but is it something that is in your mind?

Conallen: “Of all the experience I’ve had growing up, I would say mostly that’d be in terms of my family. I’m Irish Catholic so my family is fairly big, and I definitely have taken certain aspects of aunts, uncles and cousins — taking their personalities to add spice to some characters.”

SPR: What drew you to "Red Speedo" and what about your character, Peter, got

you excited to play him? Conallen: “I was invested in Peter es-

sentially because of the way he treated his younger brother Ray in terms of that familial bond and how he wants to take care of him and how he’s basically willing to do anything to help this kid out. Of course, at the end, his ire is based on family betrayal, which is not something that you do in a South Philadel-phia home. That was very interesting for me to play with and work through.”

SPR: You open the play with a nine minute or so monologue that sort of sets the tone and fills the audience in on what has happened then sets up what’s coming. That monologue is something that must have got you excited as you signed on for the play.

Conallen: “Yes, absolutely —just the fact that his monologue was right there. Peter is a good lawyer; he knows how to talk a good game, but it definitely sets the tone for the manipulations, and the covers ups and the lies. He is dancing as fast as he can in the best way he knows how in order to make every-thing come out essentially in his favor.”

SPR: There’s a pool built into the stage, and it is a very startling set piece. How do you act around that, and how does the pool sort of function in the drama of the play?

Conallen: “It is definitely an exciting ele-ment. This production is the first of this play to include an actual pool. To have that ele-ment is really exciting because it really is an important character. It is a character, in that all the hopes and dreams of these characters are based on that pool, on that water. Just the vi-sual element, too, of looking at this blue pool and the lights shimmering on the walls—it was definitely a draw for me.

SPR: Philly theater is obviously growing and evolving. What is it like being part of it and working on a production in a neigh-borhood where years ago no one would have imagined there’d be an edgy, risk tak-ing outlet like Theatre Exile?

Conallen: “I think we’ve gotten a lot braver and trust ourselves more. I think we, as artists in the community, are trusting our visions and trusting we have teams around us and behind us that actually make these visions real and palpable. I think there has been an influx of a lot of amazing artists into the city. Where they weren’t getting work in New York because it is over-saturated by artists and really they come from all over the place and be a part of this growing scene, this evolving art form we have in Philadelphia. I’m super happy I’ve been here since the beginning, not that I have anything to do with it.” SPR

“Red Speedo” is running through Nov. 23 at Theatre Exile on 13th and Reed streets. It also stars Brian Ratcliffe, Leonard C. Haas and Jaylene Clark Ownes. For tick-ets, visit theatreexile.org.

The Philadelphia 76ers and Flyers may not be resembling champi-onship caliber organizations this season, but the fans still fill the

seats night after night at the Wells Far-go Center, 3601 S. Broad St. Many of them enter the building hungry, and ready to sample some of the many offerings. Aramark executive chef

and Bella Vista resident Peter DeCarl is the one responsible for setting the game plan in motion. Last year was his rookie season at the Wells Fargo Center, but the Chicago native served as executive chef for Aramark at Job-ing.com Arena in Glendale, Ariz. So far, there seems to be no regrets about the East Coast relocation.

“Working at the Wells Fargo Center provided me with a great opportunity to work in a fantastic facility where I could gain valuable knowledge and great experience, while also be in the backyard of Aramark’s headquarters,” he said.

DeCarl is one of seven chefs who oversee all of the Wells Fargo Cen-ter’s food offerings. There are several dates during the course of the year where there are two to three events taking place, keeping the kitchen staff quite busy.

“I have a great supporting team that does a phenomenal job in all of the spaces they oversee. They are very engaged and focused,” he said.

Several new menu items have been added, including The Hammer (avail-able in section 119) — in honor of the Flyers’ feared enforcer, Dave Schultz. The offering consists of smoked sau-

sage, chopped pork and choice of bar-becue sauce on a seeded roll.

The 11th Street and Broad Street Bistros have added a smokehouse burger — a grilled 8-ounce burger, with beer cheese spread, apple-wood smoked bacon, sriracha aioli, let-tuce, tomato and red onion — and a flatbread with fresh mozzarella and roasted tomatoes.

For those who plan on enjoying the games from the comforts of home, DeCarl said the Meatball offering he is sharing this week “is a great recipe for a beginner to try.” It also happens to be one he has pulled from his fam-ily collection.

“Before serving it at the Wells Far-go Center, it was on the menu at my restaurant in Chicago,” he said. “It’s an all around easy recipe and a little different from a traditional meatball recipe. The simplicity is what makes it amazing.”

I n g r ed I e n t s :10 ounces of ground pork10 ounces of ground beef

chuck1 medium yellow onion,

shredded1/3 cup of shredded sharp

provolone1/3 cup of

whole-milk ricotta

1/2 cup of grated pecorino

3/4 cup of breadcrumbs

3 eggs, lightly beaten1/2 cup of Italian parsley,

chopped2 teaspoons of kosher salt1 teaspoon of black pepperFor the sauce2 28-ounce cans of peeled

Italian tomatoes, crushed Freshly ground pepper, to

taste 1 teaspoon of kosher salt2 tablespoons of basil,

shredded 1/2 cup of freshly grated

Pecorino Romano cheese

dIr ec t I on s :Preheat the oven to 400 de-

grees. Place the breadcrumbs in a large

bowl, and add the pork, beef, eggs, onions and ricotta, Add the Romano, provolone cheese, parsley, salt and pepper, and mix well. Shape into 24 meatballs, us-ing about 3 rounded tablespoons

of the mixture for each. Transfer the meatballs to an oiled medium roasting pan.

Roast the meatballs in the oven for about 30 minutes, or until firm and just beginning to brown. Us-ing a spatula, loosen the meatballs from the bottom of the pan. Add the crushed tomatoes to the pan, and season with the salt and pep-per. Lower the oven temperature to 325, and cook uncovered for about two hours, or until the sauce is very thick and the meatballs are very tender. Turn the meatballs once or twice during cooking.

Transfer the meatballs and to-mato sauce to a large platter. Gar-nish with the basil and Pecorino, and serve hot. SPR

The Hand that feeds them

A West Passyunk foot-ball team used allegiance to its coach’s blue-

print to claim a championship.

n By Joseph MyersReview Managing Ed itor

Admirers of alliteration can make a match by calling the football play-ers from Prep Charter High School, 1928 Point Breeze Ave., “hungry

Huskies,” but astute afionados can classify them as “hardworking,” too. On Saturday, the athletes combined their carnivorous nature and committed mindset to regis-ter a 14-12 victory over Del-Val Charter at the South Philadelphia super site, 10th and Bigler streets. With the win, the West Passyunk-based performers claimed the Public League’s Class AA title, their site’s premier pigskin crown.

“We’ve wanted this from the moment we came together,” second-year coach David Hand said to his charges, who moved their mark to 9-0-1 ahead of this Saturday’s 1 p.m. AA City championship matchup with Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., which walloped West Catholic, 34-12, in the Catholic League’s AA final. “You played for each other and earned this moment.”

Having tallied the first postseason tri-umph in program history last season, this year’s players and staff knew they had the potential to embarrass defenses and of-fenses with equal skill. They entered the contest having throttled The Academy at Palumbo, 1100 Catharine St., 62-0, in a Nov. 1 semifinal and looked for more ju-bilation against the Warriors, whom they had already bested, 13-6, on Oct. 18, their lowest-scoring tilt of the campaign.

“We needed to put it all together and give an all-around team effort to get it done,” senior quarterback Vian Dolo said. “We’re

a more mature and composed group than we were last year, so this is huge for our confidence.”

The captain and his colleagues took the frigid field with conviction, vowing to honor Hand’s instruction to play with “controlled violence.” Following a failed drive that ended with a fumble and an impressive defensive stand, they appeared ready to execute uninhibited vigilance to gain immortality. Owners of five shutouts, the visitors could not corral Dolo on a third-and-13 play, with the Southwest Philly dweller escaping pressure to con-nect with junior wide receiver John Davis for a 79-yard score. Along with their defensive ledger, the guests have made mincemeat of opposing stoppers, with four games of at least 50 points, but Karamo Dioubate and his crew quickly revealed

their foes’ woes would be plentiful with key stops on their second stand.

“All year, we’ve trusted what our coach-es have said,” the junior end said of ap-proaching another duel with the Warriors. “We knew we needed to step up because a regular season win against them is great, but we wanted more.”

The defensive diligence gave Dolo et al great field position following a botched punt attempt, and the signal caller, who teams with Dioubate to give Hand a pair of Liberian stalwarts, gave the ball to junior running back Quadir Strothers, whose 10-yard scamper made the tally 14-0. A mix of sloppy plays and strong defensive calls kept the teams from mounting any second-quarter threats, leaving Prep Charter one half from engendering hero worship.

“We knew their reputation,” Southwest

Philly’s Dioubate, who picked up 4.5 sacks in the regular season scrum, said. “We were determined to keep the pressure on them.”

It soon seemed the Huskies might give their guests a goose egg, as two more futile series helped to give Dolo another chance to make the opponents’ limbs languish. Off a fake to running back Tarr Monway, he raced in from 12 yards out, but a pen-alty negated the score.

“That definitely could have gone a long way toward putting the game out of reach, but those things happen,” Dolo said.

With new life, the Warriors showed their might by converting a fourth-and-10 call that included a penalty. Quarterback Shayne Smith found Shaheed Brown for a 14-yard touchdown, and suddenly the whole location seemed electrified as tem-peratures dropped and breezes increased.

“We didn’t think they were stealing the momentum because we knew we would keep going after them,” Dolo said.

His second interception did not break the Huskies, but it did make his counterpart giddy, as Smith and Nasir Bonner hooked up for a 60-yard scoring strike, though the latter’s spiking of the ball pushed his squad back for its two-point conversion, which the Huskies stymied. With eight minutes to go, the crowd sensed a comeback could ruin the home unit’s date with history, but Dioubate would not allow it.

“I wanted that pressure,” the 6-foot-4 lineman said of dashing the upset plan. “I wanted to be there at the end.”

His desire became a lasting memory, as he dropped Smith for the second time to seal the win and set off the celebration. Part of a much more engrossing script, the victory quickly became secondary as the Huskies turned their attention to the task of defiling the Saints.

“They have very solid players,” Hand said of the 7-4 parochial club. “We’re going to have to make plays, plain and simple.”

“We’re strong and they’re strong,” Di-oubate added of the impending super site clash. “We’ll have to settle it on the field to determine who’s stronger.” SPR
