■ By Joseph MyersReview Staff Writer

“I get to be a part of revitalizing a very spe-cial piece of South Philly’s history and Jewish history, and that is incredibly rewarding,” Morris Levin said Monday

at Congregation Shivtei Yeshuron Ezras Israel, 2015 S. Fourth St. “I can’t wait to see how every-thing unfolds.”

The resident of the 700 block of Christian Street

is managing his worship site’s involvement in the Hidden City Philadelphia 2013 Festival. Be-ginning today and lasting through June 30, he and other congregants will help the public to explore Shivtei Yeshuron’s once-robust role in advancing lo-cal Jewish senses of religious reverence and com-munal affi nity while encouraging the continued preservation of the three-story haven.

The orthodox synagogue, one of nine sites par-

ticipating in the six-week extrav-aganza, the successor to 2009’s

inaugural celebration featuringShiloh Baptist Church, 2040 Chris-

tian St., began as a store followinglate 19th-century construction. Its even-

tual attendees had fi rst organized in 1876 at322 Bainbridge St. and chartered their congrega-tion in ’92, the latter date serving as the midpoint

To the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board:

Our position against any of the three applications proposed for this area is based on far more than the infamous N.I.M.B.Y. (Not In My Back Yard)

I sincerely thank you for agree-ing to hold hearings in my back-yard because now you can clearly see all that we already have in our backyard and, for some of us, our front porches as well. We have Lincoln Financial Field, Citizens Bank Park, the Wells Fargo Center and last, but not least, Xfi nity Live! (very, very live as it turns out ).

In our immediate vicinity, we also have the revitalized navy base, and FDR Park, which we are working hard to become the equiv-alent of Central Park.

Gone are the days when there was a stretch of quiet time here. These venues are booked, overbooked and simultaneously booked almost 365 days a year. Surely you can

imagine the chaos that we already endure. I challenge any other sec-tion of this city to match event for event, capacity for capacity what we already tolerate here. Can we take more and continue to sur-vive? We say a resounding “no.” Our civic organizations and the [Sports Complex Special Services District] have worked tirelessly to make it work, to accommodate all parties, to unsnarl the traffi c and mitigate the noise and trash, etc.

Our neighbors have made many sacrifi ces and accommodations already so that the City can make additional revenue, the teams can have a sparkling home turf and fans can have a safe neighborhood to come to, but enough is enough. It would stretch the imagination, plus the capacity and resources of our good neighbors, to try to miti-gate the damage from even more cars, strangers, noise and confu-sion in the area.

Now you may hear about how

many people we already host and think, “Hmm, that will be a built-in crowd for casino success.” No, [it would be] quite the opposite. Remember that event ticket prices are high, parking is expensive and beers and food are costly at sport-ing and entertainment events. The fans already are spending four to six hours here. Will they have more time and more money left over to drop at a casino here? We strongly doubt it.

Correspondingly, every other person on the face of the planet who is not attending an event here has the good sense to completely avoid the entire area before, dur-ing and after events, or risk being snarled in pregame or post-event traffi c that lasts for hours, despite our best efforts to clear it quickly.

To support the high costs of these very expensive operations of trying to produce a winning team, every dollar of tickets, beers and parking is needed. Any casino op-eration here will cannibalize team operations and stretch the already overburdened fans. We doubt there is much synergy after the initial curiosity wears off because the fan-based dollars and additional time away from family or work just are not there.

The teams have been our good

partners, as we have worked through our issues here. We do not want to see them hurt in any way. It is out of mutual respect for them, but more importantly, for the 5,000 nearby households, that our position is fi rmly “no.” We be-lieve a casino here will not thrive or even survive. It will be a poor man’s SugarHouse, and that helps no one. Rather, thinking more globally as to what casino location would be best for the city, the re-gion and the state and what loca-tion will produce the most revenue and economic development around it, with the least amount of pain to Philadelphians, I would suggest that one of the two proposed casi-no sites closest to the Pennsylvania Convention Center would be more ideally located. This is where we hope the commission will see the most value for Philadelphia’s sec-ond casino.

First, if a person from Phila-delphia loses money at a casino, it hurts all Philadelphians — less time spent with their children, less money for books and clothes, erod-ed family savings, lost businesses, etc., but if a guy from Kansas at a convention in big bad Philadelphia loses money at the casino, it im-pacts us all far less.

A Convention Center-focused casino will better distinguish itself from SugarHouse and will help to revive the nightlife in that growing area. Our nightlife here needs no assistance.

I will leave you with this image: Putting a casino where there is al-ready four very large, very loud entertainment/sports venues is like stuffi ng a 10-pound sausage in a fi ve-pound bag, or like stuffi ng a size 14 chick in size 2 jeans. No matter how you slice it, it’s ugly.

Thank you for listening. Just in case you are not sure about what we are saying, we invite you back during a multi-event evening. Thank you.

What police described as an “in-tense investigation” resulted in the arrest of three men who gunned down Thomas Watson,

36, of the 400 block of South Street at 3:25 a.m. May 11.

Police fi rst arrested Josephe Murray, 18, of Southwest Philly, May 15, according to court documents. Ron-nie Robinson, 40, of North Philly, and Larry Eric E. Nelson, 47, of Southwest Philly were

apprehended the next day. All three were charged with murder,

robbery, burglary and conspiracy, accord-ing to court records. Murray also was charged with possession of an instrument of crime while Robinson also was charged with possession of an instrument of crime, criminal trespassing, recklessly endanger-ing another person and fi rearm violations.

Watson was pronounced dead with gunshot wounds to his head and the left side of his torso inside Häagen-Dazs, 242 South St., which led to his second-fl oor apartment, 12 minutes after the incident, police said.

Fruitful lead

Police have released surveillance video of the suspect authorities believe is responsible for killing a Whitman man last month.

After combing through area surveillance video, investigators located the murder suspect in Don Ly’s case strolling along the 2700 block of South Randolph Street — about two blocks from the site of the homicide, police said.

Ly, 68, of the 400 block of Vollmer Street, was stabbed multiple times in his neck, torso and right arm at 5:09 a.m. April 18 outside of his home, according to police. He was pronounced dead 22

minutes later at the Hospital of the Uni-versity of Pennsylvania. Ly was headed to his fruit stand he ran since 1995 at the University of Pennsylvania.

The suspect was described as black with a light complexion or Latino, 5-foot-8, thin, having facial hair and wearing dark-colored pants, a dark-colored jacket, a black knit hat and black Converse sneak-ers.

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

Oxy operativeAn unknown man robbed a South of

South pharmacy, fl eeing in a mini van. The offender entered CVS, 2132 South

St., and headed to the pharmacy where he handed the 21-year-old worker a note that demanded oxycodone at 4:47 p.m. May 21, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. After reading the note, the worker looked up to see the of-fender with a silver handgun pointed at his face, so he passed the note to the 31-year-old female pharmacist. She retrieved the drugs from the safe, placed them in a bag and handed them to the offender.

He then fl ed from the store, heading southbound on 22nd Street and westbound on Kater Street before hopping in and driv-ing off in an older model, dark blue mini-van, possibly a Chrysler, with an unknown Pennsylvania license plate, Tolliver said.

The thief was described as white, in his late-20s, 5-foot-7, possibly having light fa-cial hair and wearing a red Phillies hoodie, a gray Phillies baseball cap and black shorts.

This is the fi fth such robbery since Feb. 1, although it has not been linked to any of the prior incidents. The same two men are believed to have robbed Bertolino’s Phar-macy, 1500 S. 12th St., Feb. 11; Zevin’s Drug Store, 800 McKean St.; and Wal-green’s, 2655 S. 10th St. (“Trio of thefts,” March 21), but the suspects have not been apprehended, police said. Antonio Jeff-coat, 25, of North Philly, was arrested four days after allegedly holding up Rosica Pharmacy, 2065 Snyder Ave., April 23.

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

in the parking lot at Walmart, 1675 S. Columbus Blvd., at 4:20 p.m. Friday, De-tective Danielle Tolliver of South Detec-tive Division said. As he, his 26-year-old sister and children exited the car, Craig McWhorter, 52, of the 2100 block of Wat-kins Street, who was driving a 2000 black Mercedes-Benz, is believe to have com-plained to and cursed at the woman, say-ing they had parked in the spot he planned to occupy. The 31-year-old stepped in to defend his sister and an argument ensued when McWhorter allegedly said, “I got something for you,” pulled out a switch-blade and indicated he was going to stab the man. The family fl ed back to the ve-hicle until police arrived.

Police arrested McWhorter and recov-ered the switchblade, Tolliver said.

He was charged with possession of an instrument of crime, terroristic threats, simple assault and possession of a prohib-ited offensive weapon, according to court records. He posted a percentage of his $3,000 bail and was released Sunday.


Violent follower A mugger threatened to slit her victim’s

throat in Hawthorne Tuesday. A 28-year-old woman was heading west-

bound on the 1200 block of Bainbridge Street when she realized someone was fol-lowing her at 8:50 p.m., Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. She turned around as the unknown female whipped out a knife, placed it against her throat and said, “Give me all your [stuff] or I’m going to slit your … throat.” The vic-tim pushed away the knife, which resulted in a small cut to her right thumb. The pair struggled for a short time until the offender was able to gain control of her purse, which contained ID, credit cards and an iPhone.

The robber — who was described as black with a light complexion, in her 20s, 5-foot-4, thin; having freckles and corn-rows and wearing a large, baggy white T-shirt and large, baggy white khaki shorts — fl ed southbound on 13th Street.


Cutting off his air A trio of teens robbed a man putting air

in his tires at a Newbold gas station early yesterday.

The 34-year-old was tending to his car at Sunoco, 2102 S. 17th St., at 2:15 a.m. when the teens asked if they could use the air pump when he fi nished, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Divi-sion said. Upon looking toward the group, one of them punched him in the back of

his head. The others soon joined in on the attack, punching him multiple times and swiping $5, his cell phone and ID.

The young men fl ed west on Snyder Av-enue on bicycles.

The victim was treated at Methodist Hos-pital for his injuries, which included a lacera-tion to his right hand as one of the teens was armed with a folding knife, Tolliver said.

Two of the offenders were described as black, age 17 to 19, 5-foot-9 to 5-foot-10, 100 to 120 pounds and wearing white T-shirts and plaid shorts. Information on the third male was not available at press time.


Wild rideWithin blocks of where he was picked

up, a passenger robbed his cabbie in Haw-thorne yesterday.

An unknown man entered a 41-year-old man’s Capital Cab Co. taxi at 12:48 a.m. May 22 at Broad and Carpenter streets, De-tective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. As the cab reached 13th and Christian streets, the passenger pointed a black handgun at the driver and ordered him to hand over cash. He gave him $60, and the robber fl ed southbound on 13th.

The offender was described as black, age 35 to 38, 5-foot-7, 200 pounds, close-cropped hair and wearing a white T-shirt and black pants.


Mountain Street tangle A robber placed a man in headlock in or-

der to take his belongings in Point Breeze Saturday.

At 7:15 p.m., a 60-year-old man was strolling eastbound on the 2000 block of Mountain Street when the perpetrator jumped him from behind, placed him in a headlock and went through his pockets, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South De-tective Division said. During the struggle, the victim elbowed his attacker in the fore-head, resulting in his fl eeing eastbound on Mountain. The offender stole $12, a pack of cigarettes and ID.

The victim was unharmed, Tolliver said. The robber was described as black with

a medium complexion, age 20 to 25, 230 pounds and wearing a dark-colored jacket with a stripe on it and dark-colored jeans.

Village people■ By Joseph MyersReview Staff Writer

When analyzing communal resi-dential opportunities last year, Josephine Fulginiti knew she needed to nd a place that would

accentuate her sociability and with as-sistance from the St. Maron Community Development Corp., the seeker secured space earlier this spring at Cedars Village, 921-31 Ellsworth St.

She, fellow residents and personnel from the nonprofi t united May 10 to mark the Passyunk Square location’s grand opening, the culmination of a vision by a neighbor-ing parish’s former pastor.

“So far I have enjoyed exploring our commonalities and witnessing how pleas-ant everyone is,” Fulginiti said Friday, two weeks after her move to the fi ve-story, 22,000-square-foot quarters. “The inhabit-ants take pride in themselves, which means they will do the same with where they live.”

She and the 64-room destination’s other dwellers are bonding thanks to the late Monsignor Sharbel Lischaa, who helmed St. Maron’s Catholic Church, 1013 Ells-worth St., for 36 years and who responded to aging parishioners’ concerns about re-maining safely in their homes by courting partners to build a facility. Having estab-lished a nonprofi t, community members, including representatives from the South Ninth Street Businessmen’s Association, teamed with city, state and federal fi gures to fund construction.

“We are endeavoring to be a great re-source for those 55 years of age and older,” corporation board member and parishioner Joseph Katter said of marketing the one-time Philadelphia Parking Authority lot, whose transformation began March 29, 2012. “We consider ourselves very fortu-nate to have had the chance to help many from that population to remain close to their original residences.”

The inhabitant of the 1000 block of Ells-worth Street noted the expanse, whose ear-liest lodgers signed leases May 1, has fi lled 42 of its slots, with roughly 60 percent of tenants hailing from South Philly. He and his peers aligned with New Jersey-based Ingerman and Haley Donovan Architecture and Paoli-situated BCM Affordable Hous-ing to erect the project, whose amenities in-clude 28 parking spaces; a rooftop garden assisting in 100 percent stormwater reten-

tion; a community room; a social services suite; and apartments endowed with wash-er/dryer condensing units and handicap ac-cessible showers.

“We have more women than men, but no matter the gender, we are working to keep everyone in their comfort zone so that they don’t feel as if they are going through that much of a change,” corporation board pres-ence Denise Eddis said.

The resident of the 900 block of Annin Street has overseen the application pro-cess, which has involved helping potential renters to understand income requirements, among other aspects. She has observed their receptivity to their new environs, with property manager Dena Stills-Todd like-wise picking up positive feedback.

“They love it,” the Ingerman employee, hard at work in preparing social events calendars, said from a deck, a feature on every fl oor. “They are desiring comfort and to make their apartments seem like their own homes. We’re happy so many of them can stay within walking distance of transportation, stores, worship sites and family, and we’re all about promoting long, healthy lives.”

THOUGH A SEPARATE entity, the develop-ment corporation has striven to benefi t

St. Maron’s, the nation’s second oldest Maronite church. Its constituents had dili-gently looked to honor the spiritual haven’s need to keep its fl ock thriving, and with the grand opening behind them, they feel they have partially completed their mission.

“Monsignor Sharbel was such a won-derful person,” corporation president and South Ninth Street vice president Lee Es-posito said. “He was a regular guy who had this amazing ability to connect with people and understand their situations.”

The resident of the 800 block of Carpenter Street recalls the fi rst sermon he heard from the religious leader, who died of kidney dis-ease in August ’11. In it, he advised people not to complain about having problems because needing to face dilemmas means that God has remembered them. The talk hooked Esposito immediately and led to his enhanced involvement in the construction.

As far back as ’07, with former 1st Dis-trict Councilman Frank DiCicco as a sup-porter, the endeavor looked as if it could occupy the old American Ice and Coal Co., 1101-33 S. Ninth St., Katter said. The site’s demolition occurred a year later, and the corporation soon after learned from the then-politician that he had another de-veloper interested in the land. Offered the parking authority property, the entity ac-cepted and set itself to fostering partner-ships with backers.

“Overall, everything has moved along smoothly,” Esposito said, adding that Ce-

dars Village rises only three stories alongEllsworth Street to have it comply with theaesthetics of neighboring rowhouses.

The Bella Vista inhabitant delivered re-marks at the dedication, with DiCicco, his1st District successor Mark Squilla, stateSen. Larry Farnese, Mayor Michael Nut-ter and Rev. Vincent Farhat, St. Maron’scurrent pastor, also addressing the crowd,which witnessed a ribbon-cutting and en-joyed inspecting the building, which in-cludes artwork and vintage South Philly-based photos.

“We’ve had many positive reactions, andwe’re confi dent we can provide ample waysfor the residents to enjoy their surround-ings,” Katter said, with last weekend’s NinthStreet Italian Market Festival and June 14to 16’s Lebanese Festival at St. Maron’s ascited boons.

“I feel they have done a great job put-ting everything together,” Fulginiti, hope-ful that the overseers’ plans will yield tripsand other non-facility-situated types of di-versions, added. “When I heard of my ap-proval, I had a great feeling that I would beamong fantastic individuals, and I’ve notbeen disappointed.

for a massive infl ux of Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe.

“Renting began in 1909 and purchasing came a little later,” Levin, inspecting holy books and original light fi xtures, said, not-ing the space’s transformation from a com-mercial and residential mixture to a spiri-tual and residential blend. “For the next few decades, it served as a hub of activity until the World War II-era when many Jews moved, leaving only a few to this day.”

WITH TWO YEARS as a member, the Bella Vista inhabitant has sought to advocate for an enhanced appreciation of Shivtei Yeshuron, South Philly’s oldest synagogue, which gained its present name with the ’68 acquisition of Congregation Ezras Israel, formerly at Sixth and Cantrell streets. Hav-ing developed a great rapport with the popu-lation, including president Richard Sisman, who as a boy fl ocked to the shul for servic-es, Levin last year approached Hidden City, which lists its mission as helping citizens to “be curious about the city, to fall in love with its remarkable but lesser-known places and to give their time, resources and ideas to realize new features for the places and com-munities where we work.”

“I had considered the congregation as hidden in the sense that many people lacked knowledge of our operations,” the overseer said, detailing the review process that culminated with its April 10 selection as the lone South Philly destination.

As his ancestors had dutifully explored their heritage, including great-grandpar-ents who lived on the 500 block of Reed Street, he felt he could use Hidden City’s values of accessibility, dialogue, diversity and pragmatism to highlight pride in the past, responsibility for the present and the future of their faith. The middle element involves locating more backers for its up-keep, with benefactors to join volunteers and Councilman at large James Kenney, tomorrow’s honoree for the opening party, who grew up within walking distance of the synagogue and who helped to secure renovation funds in 2007, as sustainers of the beloved spot, which Sisman, a native of the 2000 block of South Fourth Street, thought he had forever parted with upon his 1973 move to Elkins Park.

“I’d forgotten about it until I drove by 15 years ago, and it felt like home still when I resumed attending,” the sixth-year lead-er said. “When I took over, we had many problems with the structure, but I vowed to take care of them.”

A deteriorated rear wall led to two cita-tions from the Department of Licenses and Inspections in 2007 and ’08, but matters have improved to give Sisman and Levin

enough confi dence to present their location.“We’ve certainly come a long way,” Sis-

man said. “Now comes the task of com-pleting two prominent ventures.”

Levin has loaded the calendar with events he hopes will honor synagogues’ established uses as multifaceted realms for the further-ing of social growth. Each week will feature constants, such as tours occurring Thurs-days through Sundays; concerts and fi lms addressing topics such as radical music and artistry on select Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays; a Sunday speaker series that will address South Philly’s Jewish identity in the 1960s and ’70s and Jewish baseball players, among other topics; and knitting sessions that will yield a sweater that organizers will drape across the facade.

“We really see the festival as a jumping-off point for our long-term plan of promot-ing the possibilities of this space,” Levin, whose June 16 speaker series entry will address South Philly’s role in the back-to-the-land movement that saw Jews establish a colony in Clarion, Utah, more than a cen-tury ago, said. “That’s part of the greatness of our being involved; we obtain satisfac-tion from exploring ideas and addressing their relevance to contemporary life.”

The father of two girls fi nds particularly interesting the chance to analyze gender’s role in approaching one’s faith. Seating around 90, the synagogue once adhered to the traditional practice of having fe-males occupy the upstairs portion during

services, with the altar visible through the removal of two sections of fl ooring. It no longer requires parting, more interested in immersion than separation, with spiritual yearning teaming with communal opportu-nities to craft Sisman’s two-fold wish.

“We have a great interest in increasing our size,” the former resident said, adding his preference for gathering the 10 men, or minyan, required for Saturday services. “Along with building up our options for the second fl oor, I would love for our growth to be a product of the festival. I really feel we could have an impact on fostering dis-cussions about how to improve places like ours, which have meant so much to so many for so long.”

Sisman, who will assist with this Sun-day’s talk on local Jewish identity, com-mended Levin for being a persistent be-liever in the sustenance of the expanse that has helped them to chart their tenures as neighborhood advocates.

“I agree it does have a home feel,” Levin said from the third-fl oor space that served as a bedroom for visiting rabbis. “Our con-gregation gives people a chance to see a smaller, tactile campus with a great back-ground and numerous aspirations.” SPR

Safeguarding the future


A member of a large family committed to car-ing for communities, Ronald Rabena sees his altruistic actions as products of his upbringing.

Accustomed to giving, the resident of the 3200 block of South 17th Street received a Police Athletic League Award May 8 for fostering positivity among city youngsters, including participants at Ford PAL, 631 Sny-der Ave.

“I remain indebted to the overall organization for its role in molding me,” the 53-year-old Packer

Park dweller and division president of national se-curity operations for AlliedBarton Security Ser-

vices said last week from his Center City offi ce, just feet away from the Sheraton Philadelphia

Downtown Hotel, the site of the ceremony. “I’m happy, too, to promote its excellence by looking

to make a difference in as many neighborhoods as possible in Philadelphia and beyond.”

hometown’s 66-year-old PAL chapter as an 11-year-old attendee at its former Crisconi location, Broad and Jackson streets, learned of his commendation from board of direc-tors chairwoman Sylvia Nisenbaum early this year. A 15-year board presence with extensive committee duties, he found the news surprising and humbling and con-veyed that to his audience.

“Anybody familiar with me knows I don’t do anything for awards,” he said. “I’m active because we need to build up our children’s confi dence and make in-vestments in worthwhile futures.”

Standing before the crowd, he noted his pride in evolving from “a PAL kid” to “a PAL man.” He has enjoyed the transition because it provides daily reminders of les-sons the system gave him as a boy.

“My fi rst attraction to PAL was its em-phasis on teamwork,” Rabena said, add-ing his childhood engagement in baseball and basketball has assisted his handling of more than 60,000 AlliedBarton work-ers. “Being from South Philly, too, I feel it has played a role in keeping me grounded and appreciating diversity. Because of those elements, I’m dedicated to helping it thrive.”

The humanitarian has shown his alle-giance through three gigantic initiatives.

Calling on colleagues within the Building Owners and Managers Association fi ve years ago, he helped to establish April’s Cops Helping Kids Day, through which offi cers and children visit at least 20 high-rise buildings to generate funds from em-ployees and occupants. This year’s $40,000 endowment upped the tally to $120,000, which along with the $970,000 he and his associates raised for PAL in conjunction with his commemoration have proven him a reliable fi nancial benefactor.

He also has acted as an aesthetic enhanc-er by guiding upgrades to PAL centers, in-cluding the aforementioned spot, which has improved bathrooms, refurbished fl oors, fresh paint, a computer learning center and space for older adults to inter-act. He is striving to prepare teenagers for postsecondary education and employment through his newest brainchild, Best Foot Forward, which he would like to imple-ment across the country, especially in the 44 states where AlliedBarton operates.

“It would be assistance applicable to any fi eld,” he said of the application and inter-view tutelage. “I’m convinced it will be a home run.”

HAILING FROM THE 3200 block of South Juniper Street, Rabena matured among

relatives enamored with serving others, with his late father, Frank, helping to helm security in the early days of the since-demolished Spectrum, 3601 S. Broad St. Fresh off his instruction at Crisconi, Rabena, a graduate of Bishop Neumann High School, now Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., and Com-munity College of Philadelphia, aligned himself with SpectaGuard as a security offi cer through the defunct arena and be-gan his ascension through the company, which acquired then-Pittsburgh-based Allied Security in 2000 and then-Atlanta-centered Barton Protective Services four years later to arrive at its present name. No matter his title with the currently Conshohocken-headquartered entity, the largest American-owned security offi cer services company, he always has sought to bond with those who hold the welfare of children in high regard.

“I loved being part of the protection of people as they attended events,” he said of his former work within the sports com-plex. “In addition, I gained opportunities to interact with so many individuals whose ‘We serve’ mentality extended to the edu-cation of children.”

Through his advocacy, children as young as 6 have gained vital exposure to academ-

ic and athletic aids, with more to benefi t as he plots his biannual plan to rehabilitate PAL locations.

“I still recall my days as a participant fond-ly, and I’m paying for them now,” Rabena said with a chuckle in acknowledgment of recent knee surgery. “Great things are com-ing out of South Philly, and we have to make sure our children are among them.”

In becoming a PAL Award designee, he joins a strong list of winners since the hon-or’s 1968 creation, including Flyers great Bobby Clarke, an ’82 recipient; Mayor Michael A. Nutter, a 2009 victor; and Phil-lies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr., an ’11 commendee.

“There’s a ton of work to be done still,” Rabena, a member of the Packer Park Civ-ic Association who Tuesday also picked up a merit award from the Philadelphia Crime Commission, on whose executive board he serves, said, applauding tire-less motivation from his family, including Donna, his wife of 28 years, their 23-year-old daughter Amanda and 18-year-old son Ronald Jr. “South Philly has so much to offer, and I want to help to make it even more promising.” SPR

Wit or wit out

The Cato Institute and the Heritage Foundation are two conservative think tanks. I don’t know about you, but when I hear the phrase “think tank,” I

have this mental picture of old, wise men in togas sitting in a silent conference room, pondering for eight hours a day — not stop-ping for lunch (steak sandwiches “wit” and “wit out” cheese with fries on the side).

Cato favors the current immigration bill and its members like steak sandwiches “wit” and Heritage is opposed to the bill and its employees like their sandwiches “wit out.” Their split (on the bill, not the steak sandwiches) is mirrored in Congress among Republicans. Among other things, the immigration reform bill would require the approximately 11 million illegal im-migrants currently living in the United States to go to the back of the line before they can become U.S. citizens and that we spend an additional $7 billion on border security. The opposition to the bill essen-tially doesn’t want any more immigrants and keeps raising the threshold for approv-ing any reform bill.

The entire mess can be understood better by using the steak sandwich example. Let’s say you want to do something about undoc-umented immigrants in the United States, not because you’re a humanitarian, but you think it might add to our national security. We could know the identity of these folks if only to make sure they paid taxes when they work in the gardens of America, mind our kids and pick our fruit. So you come up with a way to do this, making sure you don’t tick off those who have come here le-gally. You make the illegal immigrants wait fi ve years before they can apply for U.S. citizenship. Here’s where my steak sand-wich example comes into play.

Say the owner of a local steak sandwich shop represents Congress (this is Philly we’re talking about here). Immigrants come up to your window all of the time. All you ask is they tell you in “proper” English whether they want their steak “wit or wit out” the cheese. Sometimes the im-migrants stumble because “wit” and “wit out” doesn’t translate well into their own language, but who cares, they’re in Amer-ica now so they should start acting like Americans.

Your sandwiches are popular so the im-migrants keep coming. Soon you single-handedly have succeeded in getting four different Asian languages, as well as

Spanish, and Portuguese to come up with words for “wit” and “wit out.” All seems well, but the illegal immigrants are impos-sible to tell from the legal immigrant cus-tomers. You have thought about requiring them to show their papers or green cards, as the case may be, but you don’t want the damned American Civil Liberties Union and all those other troublemakers on your back. You’ve thought about moving your shop to Arizona where they would appre-ciate your efforts at keeping out the “ille-gals,” but who the hell wants to live in the desert, even if the humidity is low when it hits 102? In reality, your Congress is not a steak shop. You’re not worried about cus-tomers, you just don’t like today’s immi-grants legal or illegal.

Of course, being a member of Congress is a lot tougher than running a steak sand-wich shop because you have to keep get-ting elected to remain in offi ce. You can’t admit what you really want is for these illegal immigrants to go back where they came from, and if they take some of the “legals” back with them, so much the bet-ter. What was that Romney term — ”self-deportation”? You come up with a strategy: Every time the pro-immigration folks offer an immigration reform plan, you move the goal posts, so to speak. Or better yet, raise the stakes (steaks — get it?).

The opposition is willing to support the following conditions for making the illegal immigrants, currently living in the United States, become legal: Wait fi ve leap years, pass a test on colonial candlestick making, sing the “Star-Spangled Banner” in the correct key (you chuckle over that one), pay back taxes, sacrifi ce their fi rst born (one less immigrant) and mine our borders with small nuclear devices set to explode at the hint of an accent, no matter how slight. That’s their offer, you immediately reject it as “amnesty” and totally inadequate.

You keep offering counterproposals that would add requirements, such as name all of the “American Idol” winners in the his-tory of the show, write an essay on how Shakespeare would have translated “wit” and “wit out” into old English, explain why no group ever protests the Third Amend-ment of the U.S. Constitution that requires an owner’s consent before a soldier can be quartered in their home, predict when Ben Revere will get his fi rst MLB home run, promise to never order Manchego cheese on a steak sandwich or for that matter ever open a competitor steak sandwich shop.

If the reformers agree to those condi-tions, you’ve got an ace up your sleeve. Let’s see if they’ll agree to keep the Ital-ian Market off limits to future immigrants. You call your offer a reasonable path to citizenship. SPR

■ By R. Kurt OsenlundMovie Rev iewer

In a media culture that’s deeply satu-rated with reactions to millenial dis-enchantment, from HBO’s “Girls” to a couple hundred male-who-can’t-grow-

up dramedies, “Frances Ha” feels like an artistic breaking point, a seemingly un-paralleled gem that captures the zeitgeist, yet imbues it with a timelessness that will help it last the ages.

Directed by Noah Baumbach and star-ring Greta Gerwig (two talents who co-wrote the script and are also a real-life couple), the movie blends its maestro’s cinephilia with its leading lady’s mum-blecore roots, resulting in a chatty, yet poignant, tale that’s of this moment and many others too.

Filmed in black-and-white, and thus calling to mind the high-contrast glory of Woody Allen’s “Manhattan” (a surefi re infl uence), this New York character study follows Frances (Gerwig), an aspiring dancer, as she struggles to live on next to nothing in the wake of her “breakup” with best friend and roommate Sophie (Mickey Sumner), who takes a big adult step by set-tling into a committed relationship. Fran-ces moves from apartment to apartment, and her migrations are gloriously scored to an array of buoyant tunes, from banjo music to 1980s standards.

Both irrepressibly lovable and frustrat-ingly self-defeating (she wants a dance career, but won’t take a desk job to keep her fed in the meantime), the character is a beautiful contradiction, and a fanciful, yet highly familiar, poster girl for the 20- and 30-somethings who wrestle regularly with malaise, malcontent, entitlement, and other results of growing up in a mercurial

fi rst-world society.If these descriptors imply at all that

“Frances Ha” is shallow, fear not: The fi lm is a model of how to make a talky fi lm and actually have it speak volumes, rather than vanish into the ether with all the other loquacious comedies. When Frances wor-riedly tells a waiter she’s “not an adult yet” because she doesn’t have a credit card, the line feels less like a gag than a generational gut-punch. And merged with Baumbach’s breezy, New Wave-y sensi-bilities, it all jells together into something quite magical.

A politically-charged critical favorite, Cate Shortland’s “Lore” tells the tale of a group of Germans who fend for them-selves after their SS-soldier father and Nazi-cheerleading mother are cpatured at the end of WWII. The titular teen (Sas-kia Rosendahl) leads her siblings through their ravaged homeland and fi nds her beliefs challenged along with her life. A riveting drama about atonement, ideals, and coming of age in the direst of circum-stances. SPR

■ By Phyllis Stein-NovackRestaurant Rev iewer

Ihave never met an Asian cuisine I didn’t like.

China’s diverse regions feature a wide variety of dishes ranging from

hot-and-spicy lamb to delicate fi sh. Ja-pan’s sushi and tempura are a light way to lunch while Vietnamese fare includes a tasty French infl uence. One may eat with a knife and fork at Thai restaurants as he or she enjoys the often artful creations on the plate. I always fi nish the carrot, turnip and radish roses.

I came to try Korean food for the fi rst time a number of years ago when my friend Sunny, who came to Philly with her family from South Korea when she was a little girl, and I dined at Giwa on Sansom Street. She explained the importance of sauces and small dishes that complement the Korean meal.

I have walked by Wajoe a few times over the past few months before I fi nally got the chance to try it. It is an unassum-ing, bright space with a waiter who was so helpful, caring and polite that I tipped my toque right away.

Edward and I thought a light French sauvignon blanc would complement the sometimes spicy Korean fare.

Thank goodness the menu did not read like “War and Peace.” So many Asian res-taurants go way too far with too many diz-zying choices.

Our server brought us small dishes fi lled with soy sauce along with a three-compartment rectangular dish containing slightly marinated bean sprouts, a cool version of a mayonnaise-free potato salad

and carrot and broccoli slices. The scoop of cool, lightly seasoned, creamy potatoes was a surprise, but one can assume Ameri-ca’s infl uenced played a part here.

I sampled the separate oval dish fi lled with kimchee. Vegetables were pickled and preserved to taste hot and spicy but this one did not make me reach for an ant-acid. It was perfectly prepared with sliced cabbage, carrots and turnips marinated with garlic and ginger that produced the right touch of heat.

Dinner began with fi ve outstanding beef and pork dumplings ($5) obviously made with homemade noodle wrappers. The seasoned, minced beef-and-pork mix peeked through the noodles that were so thin and translucent, I could have read a newspaper through them.

I did not know a Korean pancake ($12) existed until I saw it on the menu. I like Vietnamese pancakes, so we gave this one a try. Edward and I thought it was more of an Asian pizza. It was prepared with tiny bits of fresh squid, crab, shrimp and chopped vegetables. I liked the kick the scallions gave to the mild fi sh. The pan-cake arrived on a sizzling platter and was cut into small squares for easy eating.

I have only tried Korean barbecue once before. After some back and forth we went for the short rib ($23). Our server lit the electric grill in the center of our table and brought down a long tubular exhaust.

He brought us slices of beef that were fi rst braised on the bone and then re-moved. A large, thick slice of sweet onion was set in the center of the grill. He placed the sliced beef around the edge of the grill

and we had fun tossing it around with our chopsticks until it was done.

A large platter of cool, crisp green oak lettuce leaves along with a bowl of shred-ded sweet onions and scallions covered with soy sauce and seasoning came with the barbecue.

Once the bite-size portions of short rib were done, we took a lettuce leaf, nestled in a small amount of shredded onions and scallions and topped it with the short rib. I enjoyed the combination of hot and cool temperatures in the lettuce wraps. Grilling dinner at the table was fun.

Individual bowls of steamed rice served as a fi ne side dish for our Korean-style barbecue dinner.

Wajoe is open for lunch and dinner. Two-and-a-half tips of the toque to Wa-

joe. SPR

N o r e s e r v a t i o n s r e q u i r e d

Sitting in the middle of his 38-seat restaurant at 1046 Tasker street, chef Joncarl Lachman is a hot topic of

neighborhood conversation as Noord, his classic bistro, opened earlier this month. The former Southwest Philadelphian most recently spent time running the Chicago-based Home Bistro, which he still owns. Coming home, however, always has been on Lachman’s mind.

“I’ve been trying to come back to Philly for a while,” Lachman, who runs the spot with partner Robert Moysan, said. “During one of my trips, I came down to [East] Passyunk Avenue on a beautiful summer afternoon and I was just charmed by it.”

A meeting with Passyunk Av-enue Revitalization Corp. Exec-utive Director Sam Sherman Jr. helped to fi nalize the deal.

The graduate of New York’s In-stitute of Culinary Education has created a menu featuring dishes inspired by his family’s Dutch heritage — including Seared Nor-wegian Salmon, as well as his travels around northern Europe.

With guidance from men-tor and famed chef Anne Rosenzweig and a passion for cooking, Lachman opened Home Bistro in 2007. Now, he is prepar-ing dishes on one of the 10 Best Foodie Streets in America.

“There is some pressure, too, because you have to de-liver,” the now-East Passyunk Crossing resident said.

I N G R E D I E N T S :3 tablespoons of butter1 leek (white and light green

part only), chopped1 large yellow onion, diced 3/4 pound of potatoes,

cubed and peeled 1 large carrot, sliced2 celery ribs, sliced 3/4 pound of salmon fi let,

skinned, deboned and cut into small chunks

3 cups of vegetable stock1 bay leaf

3/4 cup of cream 1 tablespoon of coriander Zest of 1 lemon Kosher salt and white pep-

per, to taste Fresh parsley and dill, for

topping

D I R E C T I O N S :In a large saucepan, heat the

butter, onion, leek, carrot and celery over medium. Gently sea-son and stir for fi ve minutes.

Add the salmon and lightly

season (seasoning in layers helps to bring out the fl avor of all the individual ingredients). Cook slowly until the salmon is almost opaque. Add the stock and bay leaf and bring to a light rolling boil. Turn down the heat and stir in the cream. Add the corian-der and zest and season to taste. Finish with the fresh herbs and serve, topped with a seared salm-on fi let. SPR

❤ Marie ❤ Clark ❤

How any times Marie did I call your name and here we are again, another year will pass us by. It’s always the same as the day you went away. I will always love you and never forget you. Part of me is with you and I know you feel the same.

Say hi to Mom & Charles

Sadly missed by John & Barb, Family and Friends

56 ❤ 93

The reality is that you have been gone for three years, but my feeling is that not one minute has gone by.

Time has seemed to stand still without you. Your gentle spirit and soft spoken kindness has always

touched my heart and the beautiful memories which I will forever cherish. Your 21st birthday is here and I have always been so proud of the boy that you were and the man I know you would have become. It will never be goodbye, you live in my heart, where you

have always been. Where love lives on forever.

Sadly Missed and Greatly Loved By, Dad, Dana, Grandmothers, Connie and Carol,

Family & Friends.

To My Beloved Son

ANTONIO ETTORE FOSCHINI

My Husband, My Love, My Life. I miss you so much.

Happy 25th Anniversary,Jacqui Jackson

Marie Clark

4.18.56 - 5.27.93

MomTwenty years have come to pass since the time I saw you last.

There has not been enough time gone by, that my thoughts of you still make me cry.

I wonder all the time if you can see me and, if you can am I the man you wanted me to be?

I can still hear your stern voice telling me what to do; when you’re young it’s called being mean, but later in life you learn that’s not true.

In our short time together you taught me more than anyone ever could, I just wish we had more time like a Mother and Son should.

For those of you who knew her, you could never forget her. You are always on my mind.

Love your baby boy

As the Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School Saints baseball players pre-pared to take their positions against the Cardinal O’Hara Lions Friday at

McNichol Field, 26th and Moore streets, second-year coach Mike “Big Zoom” Zolk barked “Let’s bury them.”

Nearly ready for internment them-selves after falling behind 5-0, his ath-letes exhumed their bats to register an 8-7 extra-inning playoff victory to keep alive their hopes of winning a third-straight Catholic League title.

“We have the most heart, and we’re nev-er down mentally even when we’re down on the scoreboard,” senior third baseman Nick Simon said after his misplayed ninth-inning ground ball allowed junior designated hitter Joe McKinley to touch home plate with the winning run.

The East Passyunk Crossing representa-tives, 1736 S. 10th St., had entered the game with extra pressure. With the league having instituted a double-elimination format, they dropped May 15’s postseason opener to the St. Joe’s Prep Hawks 7-2 and called on senior right-hander and Second-Team All-Catholic John LaMotta to shut down their Delaware County foes. The Marymount University signee zipped crisp fastballs in the early frames and looked to receive support in the second when senior left fi elder Joe Ki-nee advanced to thirdwith one out. A botched squeeze play erased the future Maine University attendee, and freshmanshortstop Nicky D’Amore stranded two other Saints with a groundout.

The third inning proved equally frustrat-ing as Simon, of the 900 block of Wolf Street, and junior fi rst baseman Josh Oc-kimey, a First-Team league honoree, made their way into scoring position before Kinee, another First-Team selection, took a called third strike. LaMotta continued to craft comfortable innings yet could not will any teammates across the plate as the

squads en tered the sixth scoreless.The Blue Division’s Saints had not

faced the Red Division’s Lions in the regular season, during which the locals tallied an 8-4 mark to nab their section’s third seed. Having also lost their first playoff tilt, the visitors appeared eager to claim a huge scalp and scored a two-out run to break the undesired tie. After a grand slam fl ew over Kinee’s head, the hosts gathered and demanded more from

themselves, offering “Let’s hit” as their collective cry.

FOLLOWING THE SECOND-INNING miscue that led to Kinee’s

being caught in a rundown, Zolk voiced his frus-

tration with his ros-ter members’ season

of sporadic hitting. Giving them the green

light to swing away, he requested that they score 10 runs by the end of the sixth.

With a goose egg to their names as they took their sixth cuts, senior second base-man Joey Glennon yearned to begin the comeback but looked at a third strike. With Ockimey having drawn a walk and Kinee having skied out to center, junior right fi elder Charlie Jerla also worked a free pass to give McKinley an opportunity

to give the guests even the slightest sense of panic, as he promptly singled to load the bases.

Having succeeded his brother, 2012 alumnus Nicky Nardini, as the team’s starting catcher, sophomore Tommy Nardini showed his might by dumping a two-run single into center fi eld to bolster what Simon had already called “a ton of confi dence” on the Saints’ bench. After two walks and a hit batsman brought home two more scratches, Glennon, hitless in three prior at-bats, looked to make pitch-ing coach Joseph Messina seem a seer.

“Yeah, he’d said that the bigger the game, the more I come through,” the resi-dent of the 1600 block of Pollock Street said of the coach’s speech at the previous evening’s sports banquet. “I’d been strug-gling lately, so I wanted to battle.”

The composed figure ripped a single that, coupled with an error, cleared the bases and had the Saints’ faithful follow-ers shouting and making it seem as if the Lions would indeed have the date with the dirt that Zolk desired. Jerla came in to record the save, but four walks, a single and a fi elder’s choice knotted the score. Following a four-batter home seventh, the teams prepared for extra play, with Jerla vowing to suppress the opposition and the hitters each looking to be the overall hero.

The left-handed hurler permitted only one runner in the additional sessions and watched with anticipation as Simon came up with two on and one gone. Rifl ing a shot to the shortstop, he scampered to fi rst as McKinley and sophomore outfielder Pat Doudican activated their legs. When McKinley scored, pandemonium ensued, though the result failed to stun Simon.

“We worked hard to have these kinds of opportunities,” the Lower Moyamensing dweller said. “We didn’t want to get bounced today. In fact, we never want to or think we’re going to lose.”

With the win, the Saints ensured Mon-day’s trip to Archbishop Wood, where they fell 6-1 and to halt hopes of a Catholic League three-peat. At press time, Neu-mann-Goretti was awaiting word on its City and State playoff games. SPR

Prep Charter penalized

A new Public League girls’ basketball champion will be crowned in 2014 as Prep Charter, 1928 Point Breeze Ave., has been banned from postseason play for the upcoming ’13-’14 school year as a result of using ineligible players. According to published reports, multiple players used false city addresses so

they could enroll at the West Passyunk school. The students actually resided in Coatesville.

The local squad defeated the Central Lancers, 56-37, in last season’s title tilt. At the time, league offi cials were investigating the allegations that the champs had used ineligible players.

The PIAA District XII board also ruled last week that the Lady Huskies will retain their ’13 league crown. Prep Charter’s entire athletic program also has been placed on probation for two years. SPR

Paid Advertorial

Now is a good time to address your roof after this tough winter season. Ice & snow freezing and melting opens flashings, lifts seams, drain box seals open,

and even high winds can cause capping to blow loose!

By having a qualified roofer do an inspection now, it may save you $$ from water damage later. Sometimes only minor maintenance is needed.

So how do you find a qualified roofing company? The Better Business Bureau and other websites post reviews online, and in Pa all home improvement contractors must have an Attorney General’s license. It’s blue and should be readily available to be shown to you and it means your contractor is fully licensed & insured, and must follow the roofing industry standards set by the state. Another way is to see how long the company has been in business, is it local, family owned, has a neighbor used them successfully, do they have a web site, have they won any awards,

helped out in the community, are they working on a regular basis in the area? Following these guidelines will help in the search for an honest and qualified roofer!

www.southphillyroofing.com

And as always I am available for all of your roofing questions or needs. Enjoy the spring weather!
