Review Staff Writer

ashington Avenue is one complex beast. From Co-lumbus Boulevard to Grays Ferry Avenue, it’s a 2.3-mile

corridor with 29 signalized intersec-tions. And it’s evolving quickly, es-pecially west of South 13th Street, projects are in the works for Bart Blatstein and Toll Brothers proper-ties at Broad and Washington; 2401 Washington Ave. is pushing forward to expand a mixed-use vision for the

corridor; a Habitat for Humanity Re-Store is officially open at 2318; and Gus’s World Famous Fried Chicken is on its way at 20th Street and Wash-ington Avenue.

But what about the actual road? The state it’s in, with faded and often invisible striping, and issues around parking and businesses’ load-in zones, has positioned the avenue in a semi-permanent state of chaos. En-ter the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia (BCGP). There are loose plans for a grand repaving of the avenue in four or five years’ time,

but BCGP isn’t willing to wait five years to have key temporary fixes implemented to make the street safer for everyone, but especially cyclists and pedestrians.

“Your help is needed to let Mayor Nutter, City Council and the Streets Department know that there is strong public support for expediting a plan to reconfigure Washington Avenue to make it safer for all users,” reads a call to action from BCGP’s deputy director Sarah Clark Stuart.

She and BCGP posted a “TAKE ACTION” post on their site July 17,

and its intention is to get citizens in-terested, again, in the fate of the Av-enue.

It must be said that this is a long,drawn-out and complex process withan immense amount of stakeholders.It actually began back in 2011, but when the City Planning Commissionreceived a grant to study the avenuemore seriously, urgency took a back-seat to efficiency and long-term vi-sion.

“I think Donald Trump has no P.R. at all. He tweets right from his brain, and that’s a scary thing. He should apologize, although he never will.”

Jeff Kiniery, East Passyunk Avenue

and Moore Street

“I think Trump dem-onstrated in his latest Twitter comment that he has no desire to apolo-gize. I suppose he should, but I just think he has no self-awareness of what he should or shouldn’t do.”

Liz Kiniery, East Passyunk Avenue

“It wasn’t McCain’s fault that he got cap-tured, and I think the way people attributed his heroism was through the way he conducted himself in leading his men while captured.”

To the Editor:

Does anyone care to know why Tom Cardella is going to find a very long life and much more that is allocated to most of us? Attitude! The man is blessed and should be an inspiration to everyone one of us.

The way he manages to handle physi-cal and demoralizing infirmities is noth-ing short of amazing. Just read and play close attention to his last column (“The recuperator,” July 16). He elucidates so compellingly on not bowing to physical, moral and mental pressure. It feels like I have accompanied him through his many

bouts of absolute horror. There is just no other description for it. He makes it most-ly seem so ho-hum!

Tom Cardella, I simply love you and how you can take such appalling situa-tions with such a stalwart stance. Take care of yourself, my friend. I want you around for a very long time because I love how goofy you can be at times. Again, I simply love it.

Letters + : 7

The comments below are online re-sponses to Tom Cardella’s most recent column “The recuperator” (July 16).

“Welcome back, Tom! As secretary of your unofficial fan club, all of our en-rolled members missed you and wish you a speedy recovery! Please take care of yourself so we can have many more years of your wonderful and inspiring columns. Godspeed!!!”

“I wanted to tell you I am a two-time colon cancer survivor. Twenty-three years ago, I had a blockage so they did surgery and found the tumor. At that time, the way to go for me was 52 treatments of chemo. One shot of chemo every week. Then in between pills on the weekend. Four years ago it happened again, this time everything had to come out, [as] it had spread to the rectum. So now I have a bag. I have had Crohn’s disease since I was 12. This is where the cancer came from. I just wanted to tell you all this so you won’t give up. You will be OK. In a few months, you will look back on all this and say “Wow, I did it.” Do you have to get chemo or radiation? I went to Fox Chase for my treatment. God bless you, and I hope this made you feel better.”

“Tom -- I wish you all the best and a complete recovery. My dad died of colon cancer at 57. There were no colonoscopies in 1967. I have had two, and both times precancerous adenomas were found. I feel very fortunate. You have brightened my life for years. I love your column. I am a Temple grad and a South Philly girl. I live in Central Pennsylvania now, and your columns take me back to my home. Philly is always in my heart. Your wit, your love of your wife, your family and your heritage and neighborhood touch me deeply because I miss it. Godspeed, Tom Cardella. All the best to you.”

“It took a great deal of courage to disclose the uncomfortable, but accu-rate details of your recent experience at [Thomas] Jefferson University Hospital. A friend of mine had skin cancer surgery on July 14 at the same facility and, like you, had high praise for those who treated him. I am scheduled for a consultation for my recently discovered prostate cancer on July 22, and can meet the subsequent sur-gery with more confidence, being more at-ease, after reading your column.

I can only hope to go forward and be as brave as you, to write such a revealing and somewhat, embarrassing story. Your story moved me, I would like to think the ripple effect of your article has impacted a great many more. Your efforts are to be commended, no doubt emulated.”

The first episode of the Food Network’s “Great American Food Finds” with Girard Estate natives and Green Aisle Grocery owners Adam and Andrew Erace will premiere at 9:30 p.m. Aug. 3.

t approximately 2:20 a.m. Friday, the complainants reported they were in their home on the 1600 block of South Seventh Street when sounds of

breaking glass woke them, Detective Dan-ielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. They went outside and observed an unknown man smashing their windows.

The offender allegedly asked “Where is ‘E?’” and proceeded to walk into the build-ing to search for the figure. The victims ran into their apartment and locked the door, but the individual supposedly kicked their door in, pointed a gun at the first complain-ant and again demanded to know “E’s” whereabouts. He responded that he just moved to the residence and was not aware of anyone named “E.” He told authorities the man left the abode and went to search for “E” in the back of the building.

At 2:28 a.m., police responded to a van-dalism in progress call, with a female offi-cer being the first on location. She observed broken front windows, shattered glass on the ground and an open front door, Tolliver said. She exited her vehicle and walked up to the door, observing the reported offender bleeding from his right hand and glimpsing the handle of a revolver in his waistband. When she confiscated the weapon, the man allegedly left the building on foot, with the officer giving chase until she lost sight of him on Eighth Street.

While authorities were surveying the area for the offender, a witness flagged them down and stated she believed the man they were looking for was in another com-plainant’s backyard trying to break into her home. They went to that site on the 1600 block of South Eighth Street and observed a man attempting to enter the sliding glass door to the rear of the property.

Authorities detained the individual, and the female officer positively identified him as the one from whom she took the gun. The other complainants then identified him as the one who kicked in their door and pointed a gun. Police arrested Her-man Grey, of the 2200 block of Watkins Street, and charged him with possession of an instrument of crime, firearms viola-tions, robbery, burglary, criminal mischief,

simple assault and recklessly endangering another person.

A Sunday fire in Lower Moyamensing has authorities looking to determine if someone committed arson.

At about 3 a.m., emergency personnel responded to a report of a fire inside an unoccupied property on the 2000 block of South Juniper Street. The three-alarm inci-dent prompted officers to evacuate the area, with 15 adults and two children receiving shelter through the American Red Cross.

Shortly before 6 a.m., firefighters gained control over the blaze, and law enforce-ment officials soon engaged in conversa-tion with a witness. The individual said he heard glass break and glimpsed a man go-ing inside the property approximately 20 minutes before the matter began, accord-ing to police. He also relayed having seen a second man standing on the building’s roof.

The man added that the first figure exited to run south along South Juniper Street, then east on Snyder Avenue. A minute later, the witness, who could not determine what became of the other male, noted the explo-sion occurred. The Fire Marshal deemed the blaze suspicious the same day, with police not being able to provide a detailed description of the first man but noting the second as a 5-foot-4, 150-pound Hispanic with bushy curly hair and a goatee and wearing a black hoodie and jeans. To re-port information, call the Fire Department at 215-686-1300, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Authorities arrested a Point Breeze man for allegedly stealing the phone of a wom-an who had offered to give him a ride.

At 3:45 a.m. Saturday, the complainant was driving to 15th and Reed streets a man whom she had met at an event in Penn’s Landing, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. En route, he called someone, believed to be his child’s mother, and began an argument with her. The witness, who was riding in the front seat, reported she heard a female tell the passenger not to come over or she would call the police.

After hearing the spat, the motorist, who had offered her phone for him to make the call, asked for the gadget back, with the male reportedly saying “What do you think, I’m going to take off with it? Just hold on a second.” When she asked for it again, he allegedly barked “Don’t either of you make any sudden movements. I’m tak-

ing your phone and your wallet, or I will shoot both of you.”

The witness reported that she slowly went to hand over her phone to him, with the male supposedly exiting the vehicle to walk to her side of the car. The complain-ant quickly drove off and called the police from a gas station near Broad and Bain-bridge streets. An hour after the incident, police responded to a radio call of a do-mestic dispute on the 1300 block of South Mole Street, and when they arrived, there was a male inside the home reportedly yelling at a female for calling authorities.

While they spoke with the woman, they realized the male fit the description of a robbery suspect and detained him. The victim and her friend received transport to the location and positively identified him as the culprit. Authorities arrested Khalil Clinton, of the same block, and retrieved the phone for the complainant. They charged him with making terroris-tic threats, theft-receiving stolen property, theft-unlawful taking and robbery. He had not posted his $50,000 bail as of press time and awaits an Aug. 4 preliminary hearing.

A dissatisfied thief used a knife to score a man’s cash, phone and backpack in East Passyunk Crossing Monday.

At approximately 3:24 a.m., the com-plainant was walking on the 800 block of Fernon Street when an unknown Hispanic man approached him with a knife, Detec-tive Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Demanding “Give me what you got,” the criminal received $5 from his prey, but he did not gain satisfaction from the small amount, so he put the knife to the victim’s neck.

The complainant then parted with his iPhone 5 and backpack, with the aggres-sor fleeing eastbound on Fernon Street. He described the at-large figure as 20 to 25 years old and 5-foot-7 to 5-foot-9; hav-ing a thin build; wearing a gray and blue flannel shirt; and armed with a silver knife with an eight-inch blade.

To report information, call South De-tectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

A 25-year-old man died after suffering gunshot wounds in Point Breeze.

At an undisclosed time July 14, an un-identified figure shot Saqanne Stanford on the 1700 block of Tasker Street, with authorities finding him on the sidewalk at 11:48 a.m., police said. He received transport to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, with personnel pronouncing him dead at 6:13 p.m.

As of press time, officials had no motive and had established no leads in the mat-ter.

To report information, call the Homicide Division at 215-686-3334, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Three offenders made off with cash after one struck a man with a gun in Dickinson Square West.

While on the 1700 block of South Sixth Street at 10:15 a.m. Saturday, the com-plainant stopped for a stop sign and had three unknown males approach him, De-tective Danielle Tolliver of South Detec-tive Division said. The lead stranger pro-duced a small black gun and demanded his money, with the second criminal standing in front of the vehicle and the third placing himself at the passenger side door.

The victim gave them $600, but the head thief struck him two times with the fire-arm, leading to a black eye and a bump on his head. He described the first figure as black, in his mid 20s and 6 foot; having a dark complexion, a thin build, a teardrop tattoo under his right eye and a tattoo on his right forearm; and wearing red cargo shorts, a white T-shirt and black sneakers; the second as black and in his mid 20s; having a thin build and a dark complexion; and wearing a dark shirt and blue jeans; and the final one as black and in his mid 20s; and wearing a whit shirt and tan cargo shorts.

To report information, call South De-tectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

Authorities are searching for clues in a stabbing that occurred in Grays Ferry Fri-day.

At approximately 9:24 p.m., police re-sponded to the 1900 block of Dickinson Street for a male down on the highway, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South De-tective Division said. Finding him with a stab wound to the right side of his neck, they arranged transport to the Penn Pres-byterian Medical Center and are looking for any information regarding the culprit and motive.

To report information, call South De-tectives at 215-685-1635, text PPD-TIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com /forms.

portation and Parking Study is a Trans-portation and Community Design Initia-tive grant funded by the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission,” as a memorandum from Kittleson & Associ-ates, Inc. reads, a transportation and en-gineering firm in Baltimore. They were charged with summarizing the project and recommending action to Jeannette Brugger, Philadelphia’s Bike and Pedes-trian coordinator for the Mayor’s Office of Transportation and Utilities (MOTU).

“Several forms of analysis, evaluation, and on-site review/data collection were completed to support and inform recom-mendations for the Washington Avenue corridor. These include an evaluation and inventory of the existing parking and loading supply, demand, and operations; a review of all crash date for a 3-year time frame (’10-2012); and detailed traffic op-erations analysis of each signalized in-tersection along the study corridor for all proposed conceptual configurations.”

And there have been crashes. The BCGP prompt to take action includes these star-tling facts: “The Planning Commission’s consultant found that between 2010-2012, 900 (reportable and non-reportable) crash-es of motorists, pedestrians and bicyclists occurred on Washington Avenue. In par-ticular, crashes cluster between 5th Street and 9th Street and between 9th Street and 17th Street, likely due to the high number of conflicts in these areas. Bicyclists and pedestrians have become vulnerable users

along the corridor, particularly between 5th Street and 15th Street. On average, six crashes occur along the corridor per week; one crash every 10 days requires towing or involves injury and one pedes-trian or cyclist is injured every 3 weeks due to a crash.”

WHEN ASKED, CLARK Stuart can rattle off a very long list of invested stakeholders: the Planning Commission, Streets Depart-ment, MOTU, the Washington Avenue Business Association and property own-ers associations, the Ninth Street Busi-ness Association, and then there’s all the civic groups. South Philly Homes, Haw-thorne Empowerment Coalition, South of South Neighborhood Association, Queen Village Neighbors Association and Bella Vista Town Watch to name just a few, all have their eyes on Washington Avenue’s awkward maturation.

“The reason it’s been stalled is that there’s been a lot of disagreement about

the proposed plans,” Clark Stuart said. “It’s time to break the log jam. A number of years have passed, it’s time to decide what to do. We felt the voices of those who support making a change hadn’t been heard from in a while, and they needed to have an opportunity to speak up and let those decision-makers know.”

Steve Cobb, 1st District Councilman Kenyatta Johnson’s director of legisla-tion, agrees that it’s a complicated issue but that progress is in sight.

“We have more work to do, but we’re making progress. We can do much better here. We started a couple months ago, we urged the Philadelphia Parking Authority to get people to stop parking in the me-dian and we’ve been reasonably success-ful,” Cobb said. “I think we’re getting to a compromise that everyone is agreeable to and will greatly increase safety, especially for bicyclists and pedestrians, and we’re hoping for that compromise to include a

narrow median and a wider bike lane.”Washington Avenue is huge. Its four

lanes with a turn lane, similar to Oregon Ave., is actually wider than South Broad Street. Daily Traffic Comparison numbers show that 9,800 cars pass through Wash-ington; 22,000 on Broad Street; 15,000 on Oregon; and 12,000 on East Passyunk Av-enue (with only two lanes).

And yet, the primary concern is motor-ist traffic. Clark Stuart lays out the three primary objections to the slightest of tin-kering with lane reductions: “A fear that fewer travel lanes will greatly increase travel time across the corridor or that it will increase more traffic on side streets; a fear about the back-in angle parking being problematic and dangerous; and then the confusion or fear that there isn’t enough loading zones for the commercial property owners.” She said “all of those combined have created a lot of sense of doubt.”

“Yeah, it’s a complex issue, definitely,” Cobb admitted. “The major point of con-tention was a lane reduction,” he added, but in all likelihood that’s just not hap-pening. Too many people will freak out. But in the meantime, Clark Stuart and the Coalition are saying that there’s much that can and should be done quickly and immediately to make it a little better for pedestrians and cyclists.

“I think with a very quickly changing nature of Washington Avenue, there is a recognition on the property owner’s part that having a more complete street with better bike lanes and safer crossings is part of attracting more customers, residents, and that it would be good for Washington Ave.,” Clark Stuart said.

onald Trump surely has been making headlines for the past few weeks. The Donald J. Trump for Presi-dent campaign is up, running and, surprisingly to some, thriving. The Queens, N.Y. native, Wharton

School of the University of Pennsylvania graduate, best-selling author and co-producer of 14-season strong “The Apprentice” is making a run for the President of the Unit-ed States again, and he’s already made some really big waves.

In a July 20-released Washington Post-ABC poll, Trump emerged as a leader amongst nearly 12 declared candi-dates. Simultaneously, in the last three weeks, Trump has made disparaging comments about Latinos and Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.). On the former, he said in a late-June speech: “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not send-ing their best… They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

The backlash has been pretty mighty, and it’s even mani-fested into some “Trump for Presidente” posters that start-ed popping up around New York City and Philadelphia in July. The artist responsible for them is a law school drop-out who goes by the name Hanksy, stylized as such due to one of his first projects in which he used Tom Hanks’ face with a Banksy-style work. Banksy is a pseudonymous ac-tivist, painter and graffiti artist from the United Kingdom.

“My girlfriend’s from Philly and her family’s from Philly and her sister lives in South Philly,” Brandon Rosenblatt,

Hanksy’s assistant, said of the Trump poster connection. “He sort of thought it would be funny to make up this fab-ricated story that Donald had called him to run his adver-tising campaign to win the votes of Hispanics.”

Somewhere between 15 and 20, six to 10 in each city, went up in NYC and Philly and “South Philly got about half of those. A lot of them got taken down pretty quickly by people that want them,” Rosenblatt added.

The connection is Angela DePersia, the sister of Rosenb-latt’s girlfriend, who “lives near the Italian Market on Ninth Street. She’s been a really good way for him to sneak into Philly for a couple days and [poster] easily and quickly and she’ll house him for a day or so.”

Many pop culture icons have spoken up to rail against Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric, from Rosie Perez to America Ferrera. There are many locals who are just as frustrated and who see Trump as a sign of a greater prob-lem in American culture.

Jasmine Rivera, lead organizer for soon-to-be-Sixth-and-Tasker-streets-based Juntos, a Latino immigrant rights organization, said simply “Trump is a like a symptom of a much larger disease that’s starting to get worse.”

Ben Miller, with his wife Cristina Martinez, just offi-cially opened South Philly Barbacoa in the former Vegan Commissary storefront at 1703 S. 11th St. It’s a traditional Mexican cooking method of roasting whole lambs for ta-cos and consommé. They used to run a food cart on the sidewalk by Eighth and Watkins streets, but neighbors complained. Miller’s taken his and his wife’s business as a way to advocate for fairness in immigrant policies.

“We’re here to be an example that undocumented im-migrants are contributing to the economy. We pay taxes. We’re a family that’s trying to support ourselves and build community,” Miller explained. “And raise aware-ness among people in the restaurant industry to not fail to acknowledge the contribution of undocumented workers that work alongside them and to recognize the people that they know as good family people to stand up to people like Trump, who perpetuates a myth, and it is a myth.”

Miller aptly noted that Trump has a factory in Mexico that produces clothing with cheap labor and encourages Americans to imagine policies in place that prevent people from ever leaving their country, even if it’s to feed their children.

“There’s more poor people than rich people in this country,” Miller added, “and the poor people need a voice.”

n coordination with National Hot Dog Month, South Street Headhouse District put on the Fourth Annual Dog Days of Summer Cook Off Saturday. Several Society Hill and Queen Village eateries en-

tered dogs into a contest that awarded cash and pres-tige to the winner. With a five-judge panel, myself one of them, Cavanaugh Headhouse won first place and $1,000 for a dog with pork sausage and bacon, queso and jalapeno. Second place and People’s Choice hon-ors went to Bridget Foy, 200 South St., for its Nitty Gritty Dog with watermelon rind, crispy basil, onions and a barbecue sauce. Girard Estate’s Taproom on 19th, 2400 S. 19th St., secured third place honors for its Polish Dog with keilbasa, pierogi, fried cabbage, onions and tomato. My personal favorite was from a restaurant that’s not open yet, Hungry Pigeon, 743 S. Fourth St., a fairly traditional Philly Poppins dog with red onion, banana pepper, spicy brown mustard and a bit of cream. By Bill Chenevert

ollowing his undergraduate days at Allentown College of St. Francis de Sales, now DeSales University, Damon Bonetti, though pleased

with his performance record, realized he needed more immersion into the theatri-cal world to craft consistent executions of roles. Also desiring directing distinction, the native of the 2200 block of South Bonsall Street has two Barrymore Award nominations as proof of his progress, yet he has not allowed the serious nature of the business to detract from its humorous aspects. In a neat example of irony, the man so enthralled with the development of characters is helming “No Sex Please, We’re British,” a farce with matters of the flesh as the star.

“People shouldn’t be seeing this one hoping for much depth,” the 40-year-old overseer said laughing. “It’s such a fun

piece and a wonderful opportunity to en-joy a summer show.”

The West Passyunk product is guiding the comedy through Aug. 23 at the Rose Valley-situated Hedgerow Theatre Co. space. A hybrid of humor that one would find in Benny Hill, Monty Python and “The Pink Panther” franchise, the script is helping Bonetti to fall more in love with farce, which he recently explored with South Philly dwellers Daniel Fre-drick and Dave Johnson in “The Hound of the Baskervilles,” and to ponder “the mathematics of comedy.”

“There are sexual situations, mistak-en identities and terrible puns, and the combination is just great,” he said of the work, which debuted in London’s West End in 1971 and received 16 Broadway performances two years later. “Throw in that I’ve made The Kinks the soundtrack,

and it all makes for something not too tax-ing but nonetheless exciting.”

While enhancing his association with the Delaware County-based entity, Bonet-ti is simultaneously strengthening his bond with Commonwealth Classic The-atre Co., which will have him direct the world premiere of “Rage of Achilles” next month. Skewing heroic personas, the lat-ter demands a “much more theatrical” approach, but regardless of a project’s identity, he appreciates each occasion to add to the diverse professional plate that keeps him constantly courting compelling material.

“It’s often feast or famine in this field,” Bonetti said. “Whichever one that peo-ple are going through, they have to trust that what they’re doing is placing them or keeping them on the right path. In a way, you have to be a fan of yourself, so to speak. From that, so many possibilities can flow.”

LIVING IN SOUTH Philly until 12, Bonetti relocated with his family to Washington Township, with friend-assisted cinematic projects providing an initial outlet for

his creativity. Senior year of high school yielded adoration for poetry and William Shakespeare, with community college and undergraduate studies breeding belief in his brand.

“I felt I had really good instincts and could articulate certain elements of a role, but I knew I needed polishing,” Bonetti, who became a hire for the Walnut Street Theatre, among others, before acquiring his master’s at Florida State University/Asolo Conservatory for Actor Training, said. “I wanted to perform at a high level consistently because there has to be a true appreciation for the text to help someone not only to stand out but to advance the whole acting scene.”

His birth city and surrounding environs have proven extremely welcoming to his enthusiasm, with his résumé featuring in-teractions with such revered employers as Inis Nua Theatre; Luna Theatre Co., 620 S. Eighth St.; and Theatre Exile, 1340 S. 13th St., which come October will cast him as Sal Paolantonio in “Rizzo.” He returned to South Philly in 2003, living on the 2600 block of South Jessup Street with his Barrymore Award-winning bride,

Charlotte Northeast, before moving to Collingswood, N.J., five years later.

“There are just so many opportunities to do great work in this area,” the thankful thespian said of his fortune. “That means meeting many excellent people, too.”

Having always yearned to unite his af-finities for acting and directing and to ex-plore more vintage pieces, he teamed with peer Dan Hodge, of the 900 block of Sigel Street, to found the Philadelphia Artists’ Collective, which enlists Northeast, Krista Apple-Hodge and Dickinson Square West inhabitant Katherine Fritz to promote “rarely performed classical plays through workshops and readings.”

“It’s ideal for me to do a bit of both each season,” Bonetti said of handling and of-fering direction, the former which he will engage in for the collective’s September FringeArts Festival entry “The Captive” and the latter which he will honor for April’s “He Who Gets Slapped,” a col-laboration with The Philadelphia School of Circus Arts and West Passyunk denizen Terry Brennan. “I want to be a part of tell-ing great stories, and each chance to do that is something I wish to nail as part of

this big juggling act of making a living.”Enthused about fostering fellow stage

enthusiasts’ dreams, he has also enjoyed a busy academic career through instructing budding minds at Drexel, Rowan and Rut-gers universities, noting how teaching in-forms all of his passions, including father-hood, which he absolutely cherishes as the patriarch of 4-year-old Julian, music, which he intensifies as the lead guitarist of Jawbone Junction, featuring South Phila-delphians Jake Blouch and Sarah Gliko, and film and television assignments.

“There are many outlets available to me, and that just blows me away,” Bonetti, who next month will also play in the Souder-ton-headquartered Montgomery Theater production of “God of Carnage,” said. “You definitely want that when you’re at any point in your life, but this is an excit-ing time for me, and I like balancing all these responsibilities.” SPR

(On July 27, 1953 the Korean War ended)hey call it “The Forgotten War.” Nothing worse than to fight in a “forgotten war.” The Korean War dragged on for three years; almost 34,000 American soldiers

died in the fighting. Maybe it happened too soon after the shock of World War II and got lost in the aftermath. Maybe the war was over-looked so easily because it became the poster child of the new kind of war — the kind we subsequently faced in Vietnam and later in Iraq — the kind of war where there was no victory and no declaration of war. Some wars end only with exhaustion.

No final peace was ever declared in Korea. No peace treaty is in place, even today. It ended in a declared cease-fire dividing Korea into North and South, separated by a demilitarized zone across the 38th parallel. Not the kind of end that creates ticker-tape parades and the clang-ing of pots and pans. No photos of an unknown sailor kissing a pretty girl as jubilation erupts around them. When we look back today at the years 1950 to ’53, folks think it was all “Happy Days” and “Grease” — the good old days when things were simpler. Only they weren’t.

I was 15 when the war ended in a stalemate. As silly and shallow as any 15-year-old that one could find. None of our family fought in the Korean War. If there were hardships here at home, I was blissfully unaware of them. We had a political debate in my senior year of el-ementary school with the upcoming ’52 presi-dential election. Dwight Eisenhower versus Adlai Stevenson. At Furness Junior High, I de-bated for Ike. My junior high school reasoning: Ike wasn’t an “egghead” like Adlai. Ike was the hero of the Normandy invasion that helped end World War II. Ike promised to end the un-popular war and bring the troops home. That was good enough for me. I defamed Stevenson as a book-reading, pipe-smoking intellectual without a plan to get us out of Korea. I do not remember who won that debate. Ike won the election. The war ended a year later. Not all of our American troops came home. We still have about 30,000 troops stationed in South Korea some 62 years after that war ended.

Those times are a blur. No chronology to them in my memory. Joe McCarthy bellow-ing about “Commies” in the State Department. Scared the hell out of my father. He thought the “Commies” were all around us. If there were Communists at high levels of the government, they could be anywhere ... some person or per-sons tried and failed to shoot Harry S. Truman ... watching “I Love Lucy” in our living room

as Mom stroked my hair — unusual because Mom didn’t believe in all that huggy-kissy stuff ... “The Catcher in the Rye” had a curse word in it. Scrambled through the pages just to find it. Excited just seeing the forbidden word in print.

Dave Garroway on “The Today Show,” but who watched television in the morning? Our TV was a three-way Admiral combination with a 12-inch screen. Kids did not have their own television. Hell, you got a radio and a phono-graph player for one price. We purchased the TV in ’51. Remember the year because on our TV set, I saw Bobby Thomson hit the miracle home run to beat the Brooklyn Dodgers in the playoffs at the Polo Grounds. I was a forlorn Dodgers fan. Did not show up around the cor-ner for two weeks afterward...

“Tropic Of Cancer” by Henry Miller, our generation’s dirty book. In paperback. Pa-perbacks were all considered dirty books back then ... “Bring the Troops Home”...The Rosenbergs executed for giving the secrets of the atomic bomb to the Russians. Shrouded in controversy. I wondered, why the hell would they do that?...

Before we got our own television, we watched “The Texaco Star Theater.” Nobody called it that. It was the “Milton Berle Show.” Tuesday nights. Our family took a taxi to Aunt Jenny’s house to watch it. The TV picture was reflected in a mirror of some sort. Sometimes Uncle Georgie Blair placed a plastic multi-colored screen over the picture and presto – we had color TV! Colors were a little off. The grass might be blue and the faces green, but it was color ...

Hand-dipped ice cream at Maxie’s at Fifth and Jackson streets. Take out sundaes in our own cereal bowl. Malted milkshakes — if you wanted to take out a malted, you brought Maxie an empty milk bottle. Tastykakes with icing thick and down the sides of the cake ... digging Sinatra rather than Elvis .... first full year of the war, the Phillies win the pennant. I’m the only unhappy kid in town — a sore loser — a Dodgers rooter- — decimated by Richie Ashburn’s throw that cut down Cal Abrams at the plate.

Truman fires Gen. Douglas MacArthur. A “haberdasher” fires a war hero. America was outraged. MacArthur wanted to drop an atom-ic bomb on China. Stop the Chinese before it’s too late. The Chinese troops pouring across the Yalu River. — Looked as if we lost the war before we got our stalemate...

Hanging on corners in South Philly, play-ing pinball machines for money. Untroubled times? We thought an atomic war with Russia was inevitable. Dad built a bomb shelter in our basement ... Rock and roll coming on to save us. SPR

Movie Rev iewer

t seems preposterous to suggest that, at 76, after so much stunning work, Ian McKellen has given the performance of his career. But that’s the sense one gets

when leaving “Mr. Holmes,” the gorgeous new mystery that reunites McKellen with his “Gods and Monsters” director, Bill Condon. From stage to screen, McKellen has uncannily embodied characters cre-ated by Shakespeare and Tolkien, yet he’s never quite brought such world-weary pa-thos to a role as he does to that of an aging Sherlock Holmes.

“Mr. Holmes” plays it straight, acknowl-edging the now 93-year-old sleuth as a real, retired detective, whose famed per-sona was built via case accounts penned and published by his late partner, Dr. John Watson. Now, Holmes is attempt-ing to write a book of his own, haunted by a particular case involving a woman and her miscarried children, and suffer-ing from dementia that worsens by the day. Fresh from a trip to Hiroshima where he sought out herbal remedies, Holmes is staying in a rural home in Sussex with his housekeeper (Laura Linney) and her son (Milo Parker), who’s deftly, if somewhat unwittingly, easing himself into becoming Holmes’s successor.

From the painterly shots of sweeping gardens to the narrative’s slow, delicate burn, “Mr. Holmes” is consummately graceful, and a glorious rebound for a filmmaker who oddly, if somewhat ex-citingly, opted to wrap up the bumbling “Twilight” saga. The film is a paean to memory, loss and memory loss, all tied to a fictional icon made vividly realistic. McKellen playfully relishes lines that de-bunk common myths (Holmes never wore a deerstalker, for example), but also loses

himself in moments of crushing vulner-ability and regret.

Admittedly, McKellen’s performance may have more profound impact given his age, and that we’ve seen him evolve on screen for so long. There’s emotional baggage in his turn as Holmes, which is no doubt informed by the weathered ex-periences that every actor brings to his work. But not every actor can, or needs to be, so bare and bold and exquisite in his realization of a role. McKellen isn’t just showing us Holmes, he’s showing us him-self — and, just maybe, that he’s the finest actor alive today.

Available Tuesday

An arrestingly photographed festival hit, “White God” starts off as a bittersweet story of a girl and her dog, and soon es-calates into man versus beast war film that strives to critique humanity’s attempt to harness animals. Stray dogs revolt against a city of men, and the feral vengeance the young girl fights to maintain is like noth-ing you’ve seen before.

atience can be rewarding, especially when it comes to Terry Ianelli’s Signa-ture Basil Chicken. The resident of the 2600 block of South Mildred Street gives the chicken plenty of time to soak in the combination of basil, Parme-

san cheese and garlic to provide her lucky samplers with the best favor experience possible.

The Lower Moyamensing inhabitant suggested that readers serve this moist and tender dish, which she deems her favorite way to bake chicken, with spaghetti, but if that offering, another member of the pasta family or something else joins one’s plate, the results figure to be fantastic. SPR

Restaurant Rev iewer

his weekend, cousins from Delaware will be visiting us. I have decided my kitchen is closed except for a cup of coffee.

People often ask me “What is your fa-vorite restaurant?” Or, “Can you recom-mend a casual place for Sunday brunch?” and “Are there any happy hour specials you prefer over others?”

Feting the out-of-town family should be fun. It must be stress-free and well-orga-nized. Remember, not all Philadelphians are down the shore during the brutally hot summer.

When the cousins last visited, we en-joyed a splendid dinner at Paradiso Res-taurant and Wine Bar, 1627 E. Passyunk Ave. As of this writing, I am not sure where we will have brunch and dinner.

If I took an unscientific poll, I would find that happy hour has become as popular as Sunday brunch. It seems every restaurant in nearly every neighborhood offers spe-cials. Here are some of my top haunts.

The Oyster House, 1516 Sansom St., offers buck-a-shuck oysters and fat juicy cherrystone clams. The dollar special is usually Delaware Bay beauties. Stateside, 1536 E. Passyunk Ave., offers $1 oysters, as does Anastasi Seafood, 1101 S. Ninth St. Cherrystones are also on order.

One can build a meal around appetizers at Le Viet, 1019 S. 11th St. A good-sized list such as spring rolls, summer rolls and the like are half price.

Sunday brunch is booming throughout the city. South Philly is often on my list. My visit to Hawthornes, 738 S. 11th St., last winter proves it is just as fine as it was before a fire shuttered the place for a year. It is hard to believe that Sam’s Morning Glory Diner, 735 S. 10th St., has been in business since 1997. The pancakes are tops here. French omelettes and stone ground grits are my favored dishes at The Sidecar Bar & Grille, 2201 Christian St., along with the bill of fare at Kraftwork, 541 E. Girard Ave., its sister restaurant in Fishtown.

Last week, I wrote of the delightful four-course $40 dinner at Monsu, 901 Christian St., which is cash only and BYOB. If fam-ily is in town for an extended stay, Ela, 627 S. Third St., in Queen Village offers a three-course $30 dinner with half-price bottles of wine on Monday nights.

The Reading Terminal, 51 N. 12th St.,

always brings smiles to those who are visiting for the first time. The roast pork sandwich with sharp provolone and broc-coli rabe from DiNic’s or anything on the menu from Sand Kee followed by a cone or cup of Bassetts ice cream with jimmies will fuel someone during the afternoon, especially if the family wants to see the Liberty Bell, Independence Hall, the Con-stitution Center or the National Museum of American Jewish History.

The cupcake revolution was a bust in Philadelphia. It never took off. But we have Federal Donuts, 1219 S. Second St., 1632 Sansom St., and 3428 Sansom St. These sweet treats are the best in the city, and I do not usually like to use the word “best.” The fancies, which remind me of the Mummers, change from month-to-month. Since it is summertime, fruits such as Jersey blueberries may find their way into the batter. And do not forget the fried chicken. It is downright sinful.

I have not been to Zahav, 238 St. James Place, chef Michael Solomonov’s award-winning Israeli restaurant in Old City right next to the Ritz Five movie theater, since I reviewed it a number of years ago upon its opening. I cannot think of a restaurant to match it either here or in New York City. If we plan to see a movie, an early dinner at Zahav could be in order. The assorted ap-petizers, including hummus, which tastes exactly like the one I was served in Israeli restaurants, followed by roast lamb, might be the answer to dinner, especially since our cousins have never been there.

Finally, if there is only one restaurant in Old City I would take visiting relatives to visit for brunch it would be High Street on Market, 308 Market St. This casual place is owned by Ellen Yin and award-winning chef Eli Kulp. The homemade bagels and bialys with homemade cream cheese and house-cured salmon are about as fine as one can get. The brunch at Fork, 306 Mar-ket St., also owned by Yin and Kulp, never disappoints me.

So plan ahead, and be sure to make reservations. As I wrote, not everyone is down the shore.

aLEO (July 23 to Aug. 22): A carefully planned trip or event is about to be turned

upside down, as a loved one upsets plans and throws some surprises into the mix. Be flexible and pre-pared. Everything will work out; just go with the flow. Lucky number: 386.

sVIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22): Curiosity, restlessness and nervous energy are high, so

Take the time to investigate issues properly. Do not be reluctant about asking questions and pushing for answers. If someone is answering freely, it is a sign that the person is not giving all the facts. Lucky num-ber: 750.

dLIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22): Avoid limiting yourself to the same old routine and people.

The wider your circle of family, friends, colleagues and acquaintances, the more influence you will have in the big, wide world outside your door. Anticipate being amazed and delighted at what you uncover. Lucky number: 217.

fSCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21): You are eas-ily bored at this time, but resist the temptation

to spark things up by being dramatic, upsetting oth-ers and rocking the boat. Find less disruptive ways to make life more interesting. Find new interests, or take a trip. Lucky number: 132.

gSAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21): Stop procrastinating, and start doing! This is a

good time to take inspiring creative ideas and turn them into practical, productive projects. Take that first step, and great things will be accomplished. Lucky number: 810.

hCAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19): Use your abundant energy to fire up projects and

follow through with plenty of passion and purpose.Resist the urge to blurt out something totally inap-

propriate. Others are inspired by your charisma and want to join in the effort. Lucky number: 917.

AAQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18): Put your trust in people who have been honest with

you in the past. Be careful about what you believe, and resist the urge to participate in gossip. Keep your head down in the workplace, and do not let anything you hear darken your mood. Lucky number: 401.

SPISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20): Communi-cation and travel are the buzz words as your

restless side kicks in. You have amazing multi-task-ing skills right now, but avoid taking on too much and scattering your energy. It’s OK to say “no” once in a while and focus on what is really important. Lucky number: 726.

DARIES (March 21 to April 20): Your energy magnifies your confidence levels, and you

are keen to solve problems for everyone else. Do not talk things up too much and end up promising more than you can deliver. Other people’s problems are not yours. Sometimes, just listening is all you need to do. Lucky number: 957.

FTAURUS (April 21 to May 20): The more proactive and vocal you are about a current

relationship issue, the smaller the problem will be. It will help if you have the inner confidence to tell a loved one how you really feel. Lucky number: 605.

GGEMINI (May 21 to June 20): Expect to feel on edge this week, as you are sensitive

to everything going on around you. Do all you can to worry less and relax, as your to-do list will still be there in the morning. Lucky number: 647.

HCANCER (June 21 to July 22): Focus on boosting your finances in practical ways, do-

ing something you are very good at. Think outside the box, and look for new and unusual opportunities. Consider setting up a class and tutoring others or starting a mini business from home. Lucky number: 024. SPR

Review Managing Ed itor

eli Engleson has never lacked a fer-vent focus on the benefits of physi-cal activity, with the devotion bod-ing well for her body. Also blessed

with a helpful heart, the 35-year-old will combine her allegiance to fitness with the allure of aiding others Sunday by compet-ing in IRONMAN Lake Placid, a Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation event that will find her lauding the courage of an aunt who is battling the affliction and reflecting on the influence of a friend who last year succumbed to breast cancer.

“I love to challenge myself, but this endeavor has many more rewards than that,” the Passyunk Square dweller said of her Upstate New York journey. “I want to acknowledge two very special individuals and make as many people as possible aware of the efforts to combat multiple myeloma.”

Engleson will be participating in her third Ironman triathlon, with this marking her debut as an MMRF Team for Cures constituent. Set to cover 140.6 miles through swim-ming, biking and running duties, she is going to rely on her mind as much as her frame to fete her loved ones.

“There’s never any reason to complain when you’ve said you’re going to do this,” Engleson noted of the temptation to tab the test too taxing. “Think of what people are enduring in their lives, and you’ll realize that you can likewise face your fears by contributing to a great cause.”

In conjunction with her age, the agile altruist established a fundraising goal of $35,000, 85 percent of which she had reached at press time. Having dealt with outside doubts that she would be able to finish her inaugural triathlon, March 2014’s venture to Los Cabos, which she conquered in just over 16 hours, Engle-son is not daring to indulge in hubris but remains confident she will conclude her chores well before entrants’ 17-hour allot-ment has elapsed.

“I’m passionate about helping to make a difference,” the composed competitor, who

also traveled to Maryland last year for a triathlon, said. “This foundation is doing amazing work to spread a message of hope and to remind people never to give up.”

Through its Inspire initiative, the entity has connected her with a male patient con-tending with multiple myeloma, the second most common form of blood cancer. Dis-cussions with him have bred added per-spective on her participation, with thoughts on her aunt, Mary, an Ohio inhabitant with the malady, further fostering her strength.

“Anyone with this affliction has my sup-port,” Engleson said, giving a glance to her right arm, which bore her relative’s name in marker. “Family is huge, for sure, but all multiple myeloma patients matter, and promoting this event helps me to grow as

someone who appreciates any opportunity to be of some assistance.”

ALWAYS VERY ACTIVE, especially as a girl growing up in Minnesota, the resident of the 1100 block of South Broad Street strayed from being involved in organized sports but nonetheless knew the merits of being mobile. Taking up running in Febru-ary ’13, she confessed that the discipline did not initially appeal to her and won her favor only this year.

“You grow to like what forces you to step out of your comfort zone,” Engleson said. “There’s always a lesson to take from any attempt we make at bettering ourselves, and change is a necessary part of that.”

Alteration played a part in forming her

professional identity, as business manage-ment courses at the University of Minne-sota led to the belief that she would have a corporate identity. Selling real estate for five years in Las Vegas, she gained a sense of her business acumen, enhancing that as a wedding planner for I Do Belize Wed-dings.

“That’s another outlet for connecting with people and being positive,” Engleson said of uniting hearts in the Central Ameri-can land. “I’ve been able to intensify my interest in yoga through time there, too, so that gives me more joy because it’s some-thing I absolutely love.”

That attraction has led to her distinction as a yoga instructor, which pairs with her designation as a doula to characterize her even more as a health-conscious crusader.

“Being a birth coach is amazing on so many levels,” Engleson, who will instruct her first hypnobirthing class on Tuesday based on her recent certification acquisi-tion in Louisiana, said, noting the increased ease that often accompanies deliveries. “It’s so exciting to assist in the welcoming of life into the world.”

With last year’s passing of friend Kara to breast cancer, she also knows the sadness of saying goodbye. Recalling her 34-year-old contemporary’s immense will, which not even Stage IV of her disease could dimin-ish as she encouraged Engleson to continue her training, the local, who adorned her left arm with “Kara” for her Monday interview with the South Philly Review, believes that everyone needs a perennially positive person during hard times. Enamored with the prospect of contributing to multiple myeloma patients’ quests for comfort, she will spend every second on Sunday feeling grateful for her role as a conduit to a pos-sible cure.

“I take so much from the enthusiasm that the organizers, volunteers and participants show,” Engleson, who is accepting dona-tions through 12:30 p.m. Saturday and who will place on her body a temporary tattoo of the names of those who give at least $140.60, said. “I volunteered at Lake Placid last year, and I can’t wait to take on the triathlon this time.” SPR
