A Girard Estate school faces potentially dangerous cuts to its transportation services.
By Joseph MyersReview Staf f Wri ter
“We always hear that the pow-ers that be want to expand successful programs,” Dr.
Jack Carr said Monday at Girard Academ-ic Music Program, 2136 Ritner St. “How-ever, if the plan to slash our bus services goes through, we will have a retrograde situation.”
The second-year principal at the lauded Girard Estate magnet facility has had his composure tested since a July School Dis-trict of Philadelphia-issued letter notifi ed him of the proposed elimination of his middle school pupils’ provided transpor-tation. Though the original idea to sus-pend services this year failed, he and the

sume Louis A. Cicalese highly values viv-id visuals. Come next fall, the developer plans to have many eye-catching visions
for South Philly visitors. He joined other dignitaries Oct. 18 at The
Philadelphia Navy Yard for a groundbreak-ing ceremony for the 1,200-acre urban campus’ fi rst hotel: A $34-million, 172-room Courtyard by Marriott.
The fi ve-story spectacle, which is slated for a fall 2013 opening, also will offer guests 2,000 square feet of meeting space;
an upscale restaurant and lounge complete with park views; and a state-of-the-art fi t-ness center.
Hundreds of guests joined the offi cials as they detailed that Liberty Property/Synterra L.P., a venture between Malvern-headquartered Liberty Property Trust and

To the Editor: As Americans, we generally em-
brace people receiving a second chance to get a fresh start. We root for the comeback stories, especially with our professional athletes who sometimes receive a second, third, and fourth opportunity after doing something that breaks our hearts. It is sad to say, but Michael Vick’s glory days on the football fi eld are over. The hard truth is Vick has a pattern of making poor decisions inside, as well as outside the pocket over the course of his NFL career.
The objective facts on NFL.com tell the tale of a career that has consisted of poor quarterback ratings and a hor-rendous touchdown-to-interception ratio compared to the league’s elite quarterbacks. As fans, we must face the writing on the wall. The 2010 sea-son, was a result of catching lighten-ing in a bottle.
It’s a shame, but the fl ow of a NFL game moves too fast for the 11-year veteran quarterback. For the most part, Vick says the right things in the post-game interviews, but at the end of the day, it all comes down to re-sults. In the later stages of his foot-ball career, he is not going to miracu-lously develop the ability to become a quick and accurate passer on a consistent basis, which is instrumen-tal for a team to become a legitimate Super Bowl contender.
As far as off the fi eld, Michael Vick’s conviction should have includ-ed forever losing the joy and privilege to own a dog, but he now can legally own dogs. If he has truly developed a newfound compassion for dogs be-cause of his rehabilitation my sugges-tion to him is to volunteer at an ani-mal shelter during the off-season and contribute to saving a life as opposed to taking one as he did countless times in the not so distant past.
Jason KayeNortheast Philadelphia
Action neededTo the Editor:
Even in the midst of the presidential debates, our country has been cap-tivated over the recent kidnappings and deaths of our innocent children. I am mourning with and for the fam-ily of Autumn Pasquale, whose body was discovered [Oct. 22] in a recy-cling bin not far from her home [in
Clayton, N.J.]. How can we put an end to the preva-
lence of such horrifi c acts against our children? What can we as commu-nities do to make them safe for our children? It is a battle between the in-nocent ones and the ruthless ones.
This type of war should not exist. What can we do to eliminate such a war? My heart and prayers en-compasses the wounded family and friends of the innocent victims.
Barbara Ann Mary MackSouthwest Philadelphia
Sharing that empty feeling To the Editor:
I just fi nished reading Tom Cardella’s article (“An empty ballpark,” Oct. 11) and I felt I had to write and thank him for such an outstanding article that was so very heartfelt. Being a Phillies fan for years, all the way back to Hall of Famer and my all-time favorite, Robin Roberts, I felt his article caught the essence of what the fans are feeling right now. As I was reading the article, I could almost hear Mr. Sinatra singing that classic song in the background.
Not being in the playoffs hurts. Watching the games all season, there
were fl ashes of greatness and a lot of letdowns especially when we played Houston. I now am looking at the play-offs and I see former Phillies really do-ing great things and I wonder why they aren’t here doing it for our team.
I hope next year at this time, there will be cheers heard from the ballpark, but no matter what, the fans will be there cheering them on. There is no fan like a Phillies fan. Thanks, Tom.

FALLING IN LOVE: With apologies to Perry Como, Bing Crosby and Johnny Mathis, who sang of Christmas’ arrival, it’s beginning to look a lot like autumn, a claim that these items along the 2300 block of South 17th Street helped to back Tuesday. Perhaps these pumpkins will end up in a Thanksgiving pie after offering visual delights to hungry trick-or-treaters. SPR

CorneredTwo teens and a man were wounded while standing at a West Passyunk intersection.
By Amanda L. SnyderReview Managing Ed itor
Police discovered a wounded 20-year-old man at a shooting scene Friday, however, authorities did not locate
the remaining victims until the weekend. At 7:38 p.m. the 20-year-old and two
14-year-old boys were standing on the 2200 block of McKean Street when four unknown men fi red bullets at the trio from the middle of the street, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said.
One of the boys tried to fl ee, but he felt pain and saw blood dripping from a leg wound, Tolliver said. A private auto transported him to Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia where he was treated. Police learned of the wounded boy and respond-ed to the hospital at 11:30 a.m. Saturday.
The other teen fl ed on foot to 22nd Street and Snyder Avenue where he realized he had received a graze wound to his left leg, Tolliver said. He did not inform anyone of the incident, but his mother discov-ered his pants had a hole where the bullet penetrated. After questioning her son, she contacted police at 9:30 a.m. Sunday.
Police discovered the oldest victim with a wounded abdomen at the scene and transported him in critical condition to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania where he was taken into surgery immedi-ately, Tolliver said.
Detectives located ballistics evidence and an 1999 green Dodge Durango with bullet holes on the hood and windshield, but did not have a motive at press time, Tolliver said.

Investigation pending Police said an argument led to a Point
Breeze man’s death Saturday. Police located Willie Scott, 40, of the 2300
block of Mountain Street, with gunshot wounds to his chest and abdomen at 6:57 a.m. on the 1900 block of Miffl in Street, ac-cording to police. He was pronounced dead 10 minutes later at the scene.
Police did not have any suspects at press time.

Caught in North Philly A man, who allegedly wounded his ex
eight times last month in Grays Ferry, was found and arrested in North Philly.
Major Crimes Unit members apprehended Bernard S. Gause, 35, at a family friend’s home on the 1800 block of Brunner Street at 1:15 p.m. Oct. 17, according to authorities.
Gause, allegedly went to his 30-year-old former signifi cant other’s home on the 1300 block of South
Hollywood Street at 12:20 a.m. Sept. 8, insisting he wanted to get his family back, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South De-tective Division said.
After spotting her current boyfriend exit the house, he asked, “Who is that?” and allegedly pointed a black handgun at the 34-year-old, who moved back inside the dwelling. Gause, whom she has a restrain-ing order against, allegedly pointed the gun at his former fl ame and fi red from two feet away, striking her eight times.
The victim was transported to HUP in stable condition, Tolliver said.

Arrested for alleged sins An East Passyunk man is in custody for
burglarizing a Grays Ferry church twice. William Hagans, 26, of the 1200 block
of McKean Street, allegedly entered St. Gabriel Church’s convent, 2916 Dickin-son St., through an unlocked front window at 1:45 a.m. Oct. 17 and took $240 from a sister’s purse, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The next day at 3:32 a.m. he is believed to have re-turned, stealing a set of keys and two en-velopes — one with Christmas money and another with Alter Servers Funeral funds — that contained a combined $1,000.
Police released a video of three persons of interest that were scene on the 1500 block of South 29th Street around the time

Broad St., Oct. 14.
The former South Philly resident faces up to 60 years in prison if convicted, ac-cording to the U.S. Attorney’s Offi ce.
Holding up the news An unknown man attempted to hold up a

2644 S. Broad St., at 12:38 a.m. and said “What’s up, pop?” to the 33-year-old employee, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The sus-pect looked around and it seemed like he was going to purchase an item, but instead turned around, pointed a silver handgun toward the register and said, “Give me all your money.”
The employee took cover behind a re-frigerator and dialed 911, Tolliver said. The man sped off westbound on Oregon Avenue in a gray or black Oldsmobile or Mercury as his customers said, “He’s gone. He’s gone.”
The offender was described as Latino with a light complexion, age 20 to 25, 5-foot-8, 130 to 135 pounds, no facial hair and wearing a black Adidas hoodie.

Museums collect historical arti-facts for viewing and study. The Ennigaldi-Nanna in Mesopota-
mia is the earliest known museum dating back to 530 B.C. Philadelphia has a wide range of places for art and history buffs to explore, but one, dances to the beat of its own drummer: The Mummers Museum, 1100 S. Second St.
Mummers are part of a centuries-old, European tradition, starting as small plays done in exchange for food and drink. The Mummers of today are experts in produc-tion, orchestration, beautiful costumes and social commentary.
The Mummers Museum, which is a non-profi t opened in April 1976 and “was dedi-cated to the Mummers and memorabilia,” its Executive Director Palma Lucas said.
Thinking of iconic Philadelphia, people think, cradle of Liberty, cheesesteaks and Mummers. In ’74, its then-president Con-nie McHugh and the Pennsport Civic As-sociation presented the idea to City Coun-cil to preserve Mummer tradition.
The multi-level building has several award-winning costumes, including some of historical value dating back to 1901, on display. The main fl oor features fi rst-prize costumes from the various Mummer divisions, as well a gift shop, offering the how-to’s and whatnots of Mummery. The second fl oor houses costumes worn by the greatest Mummers and The Broad Street room where a novice can learn the parades signature dance, The Mummers Strut.
The community outreach program facili-tates teaching Mummer history at schools and in-house programs focusing on mask making and history for seniors and chil-dren. There is an extensive video library on the premises while the hour-long tour offer stops at the esteemed Mummer Hall of Fame.
WITH TODAY’S FINANCIAL atmosphere being volatile, the museum has not escaped the downturn of our economy. It sustains itself on membership fees and donations, which have trickled to a disturbing halt.
“Yielding to economic stress is not an option,” Chris Edge, a museum board
member, said. He has joined Lucas, board president
Rocco Gallelli, board member James Bradley, at-Large Councilman James Ken-ney, 1st District Councilman Mark Squilla, the Mummers, the Fairmount Park Com-mission, SugarHouse Casino and PHL17’s Steve Highsmith to forge a plan that would help the museum achieve long-term sus-tainability. They have come together to re-invent what the museum is about.
“There are endless possibilities for the growth of the Museum,” Gallelli said.
Lucas’ hands are full running the mas-sive building with only a staff of Ronny Kenny Sr., Debbie Glovacz and Eileen Garbarino as well as a few volunteers. Through three phases, the plan is to re-furbish the museum by 2020. The capital improvement started in January. Squilla pledged funds for the necessary upgrades to restore and maintain the outside of the building. New outside lighting was done, compliments of Dougherty Electric. New fl ag poles, trees, concrete and a stage for the Summer Concert series have been
completed with funds from Squilla, lo-cal business leaders and others, including Willie Adams, Mike DiBella and the Lo-cal Masons union.
Inside, new bathroom stalls were com-pleted by long time Mummer David Hol-mes who drove up from Maryland and donated the materials. Energy saving light bulbs have been installed. Carpen-try and painting was done courtesy of the carpenters and painters unions with the paint donated by Bud Emig and Sherwin Williams. Other donations and volunteers came from the Mummers community.
Phase two started with the cleaning of the Mummer club banners, as well as a donation from PHL17’s parent company Tribune. The station donated fi ve, 50-inch televisions to be used in various capaci-ties. Once the existing video in the mu-seum’s library has been digitized, it will be shown around the building. For a time, locked away, the rare footage of long for-gotten parades will again be available for a new generation to enjoy.
Marketing had been done in a gorilla for-mat, like fl yers and media announcements.
A new plan is being developed to include corporate sponsors, social media cam-paigns and popular fundraising programs like Kickstarter and Indiegogo to help reach a larger and untapped market, nationwide.
Full restoration is the last phase. Its goal is to bring together the Mummer commu-nity and entire city to offer a must go to place for music, education, socializing and Mummer history. Hopes are to encour-age area colleges and universities to offer course credits for music, design, history and other relevant classes taught by certi-fi ed instructors at the museum.
“A Mummer University,” Gallelli said.There’s hope the museum can become
the “social center of the community,” Gal-lelli said, by offering a Mummer Cafe with music and integration of the surrounding communities.
The smart TVs will allow patrons to search Mummer history by touching the screen and selecting a topic. Each Hall of Fame member’s likeness, history and background also will be digitized. A green screen will add an unlimited jolt to the imagination. A museum visitor stands in front of a green screen and immediately is transported to Broad Street or City Hall. Once utilizing this technology, the reveler is given a copy of their Mummer experi-ence, without having left the building
These ideas have been put together by individuals that typically wouldn’t share a boardroom. What they do have in common is their love for the community, Mummery and it’s rich history. They’ve made it their civic duty, to redevelop the Mummers Mu-seum and redefi ne it’s purpose: To destroy the typical museum model.
In a world of iPads and smart phones, it’s time to give people the opportunity to explore the endless possibilities that exist in their own imaginations and make new discoveries through communication, and a nurturing environment that only exist at the Mummers Museum. SPR

school community still face losing their six vehicles and appeared at Oct. 17’s School Reform Commission meeting to voice objections.
The marching band and color guard of-fered melodic and visual assistance to what published reports have cited as a move that would halt rides for the youngsters and two other sites’ pupils and save the educational overseer between $800,000 and $1 million annually. The district did not return calls as of press time.
For GAMP, the 38-year-old institution that Carr helped to found, the suggested termination could prove especially bur-densome.
“Our success is two-fold,” he said. “The fi fth-through-12th-grade organization re-ally helps us to mold children more thor-oughly, and we use music as a catalyst for navigating through the often confusing adolescent years.”
Carr, who had served as its assistant prin-cipal for 12 years prior to his September 2011 elevation, revealed GAMP began as a location to advocate for integrated school-ing, making it a result of a 1960s deseg-regation case brought against the district. Free busing to his venue rose out of the settlement, with published reports saying the consent decree ended in ’09, with some transportation remaining for certain sites.
“South Philadelphia was then largely Caucasian, so GAMP became a means to diversify the neighborhood and open up opportunities for children of all ethnici-ties,” Carr said.
As was the situation decades ago, the fi fth- through eighth-graders may elect to travel by bus to learn their lessons, but the commission foresees needing to abandon the convenience to trim the district’s defi cit. Its plan calls for ending full service come June, although children who had enrolled prior to this school year would be able to continue to take a bus until the start of their secondary time at GAMP. As each incom-ing class stands to suffer the most initially, Carr is aiming to overturn his employer’s contention that learners could use SEPTA TransPasses as backups by positing that such novelty could expose them to danger.
“Our fi fth grade has 66 children and with a few other new students, we had 75 enroll-ees eligible for service this year, and that’s pretty much the normal amount of added children each year,” he said. “I have 173 students riding the buses, which is about two-thirds of our lower school. This would put us in a worrisome situation each year.”
Though most of the current population would retain seats, GAMP’s allotment of instruments to 90 percent of the lower grades’ members has caused Carr to pon-
der what could occur during their public transportation trips.
“Their safety stands out as one of my chief issues,” he said. “Though I know misfortune could happen at any time and in any place, putting them on SEPTA could put them into contact with desperate individuals who could see the instruments as ways to obtain what they want and thus hurt the children to get it.”
As GAMP draws attendees from nearly 30 zip codes, with more than half of the student body residing outside South Philly, Carr also fears its cultural diversity will decline, believing enrollment will dip and essentially cause an identity transforma-tion into that of a neighborhood school.
“We love having South Philadelphia resident as students, absolutely,” he said. “We’re additionally strong because we ap-peal to families outside the area, too, and it seems a foregone conclusion we will lose many of them.”
GAMP’S COLLECTION OF more than 500 students has consistently hit attendance rates in the high 90s and has scored well above the district average on the Pennsyl-
vania System of School Assessment math-ematics and reading examinations. Those details and the learners’ regular attainment of adequate yearly progress on the fed-eral government’s No Child Left Behind law have enabled the school to obtain the highest distinction on the district’s School Performance Index.
“We’re proud of what we’ve been able to accomplish, and I understand the dire eco-nomic situation the nation is going through, but we really need for our bus service to continue in order to keep families from feel-ing they have reduced options,” Carr said.
Commission chair Pedro A. Ramos an-nounced at the meeting that additional talks will occur, according to published reports, so Carr is striving to have his institution up its civic identity by engag-ing in outreach to politicians, including 185th District state Rep. Maria Donatucci and state Sen. Larry Farnese. Having had their side heard at last week’s North Philly gathering, Carr, passionate parents and stalwart students will hold a rally concert in GAMP’s theater 6:30 p.m. Nov. 8.
“Parents are very upset,” Monique Pi-etrzyk said Tuesday. “Their kids could be-
come easy prey on the subway and [SEP-TA] buses.”
The resident of the 2100 block of South Chadwick Street has two daughters, ninth-grader Justine and 10th-grader Carol, enrolled at GAMP. The two used the bus service for their fi rst four years and though their mother will not need to worry about their safety, she more than sympathizes with her peers who will treat sending their offspring off to school as an anxious en-deavor. Her concern has led Pietrzyk to join the Save Our Buses committee.
“We have so many working parents who rely on that bus service for peace of mind,” she said. “What will happen to that?”
Her children participated in last week’s meeting, showing their love for their aca-demic home and helping Pietrzyk to de-velop a fi rmer stance on what she sees as misplaced means to close the district’s monetary mess.
“They should not be contemplating these particular cuts,” she said of district offi cials. “They focus on the wrong issues.” SPR

Synterra Partners, 4747 S. Broad St., an-nounced the project last year and began discussions with Cicalese, a California-based Ensemble Hotel Partners employee, to add a lodging area to The Navy Yard. With input from the Center City-situated Philadelphia Industrial Development Corp., the entities have sought to comple-ment the expanse’s plethora of companies in the industrial, manufacturing, offi ce and research and development sectors. To Cicalese, the location seems ideal.
“We believe that the Philadelphia market is quite strong for hotels, and the unique-ness of The Navy Yard creates a market of its own,” he said of his employer’s initial local undertaking.
Fishtown-based Erdy McHenry Ar-chitecture is handling the design of the 99,000-square-foot quarters, which will occupy 2.4 acres, with University City’s Intech Construction serving as the design-build contractor. As Philadelphia Industrial Development Corp. predictions have The Navy Yard set to contain more than 120 establishments and 10,000 employees by year’s end, the involved parties are looking for the endeavor to further Philadelphia’s business brawn.
“This new hotel is a great addition to the growing and dynamic business campus being built at The Navy Yard,” Mayor Mi-chael A. Nutter said. “This development will serve the demand of the companies and people located there and will provide a boost for our local economy.”
The second-term leader, who often has touted job creation, drew applause when an-nouncing the short- and long-term benefi ts of the hotel, which workers have begun erecting at Rouse Boulevard and Intrepid Avenue.
“The site of another crane, the sounds of heavy equipment, I got to tell you, I love the smell of money in the morning,” Nut-ter said, “because what this represents is more investment here in the City of Phila-delphia, 400 construction jobs, 50 to 60 permanent jobs.”
THE NATION’S FIRST naval shipyard, The Navy Yard operated for almost 200 years before the federal government’s Base Re-alignment and Closure Commission ended most activities Sept. 30, 1995. The City became its landlord and owner fi ve years later, with input from the city’s develop-ment corporation leading to a 2004 master plan that aimed to convert the space into a mixed-use campus. The organization’s real estate group oversees the yard’s manage-ment and development, making last week’s
occasion a delight for corporation president John Grady.
“This idea of an urban campus, where we combine manufacturing and research and offi ce, is really the wave of the future,” he said, also mentioning that residential hous-ing could become a Navy Yard component.
His employer teamed with New York’s CanAm Enterprises LLC to fi nance the Courtyard’s development through The Welcome Fund, which provides low-in-terest capital for Philly projects that will yield heavy job creation. The hotel will be-come the sixth property Liberty Property/Synterra L.P. has added to The Navy Yard Corporate Center in the last eight years.
“With all of the activity that is happening in The Navy Yard and with GlaxoSmithKline, [5 Crescent Drive] Iroko [Pharmaceuticals, 100 Rouse Blvd.] and the other new and ex-isting companies, there is a strong need for a hotel with upscale amenities such as a full-service restaurant and lounge and meeting facilities,” Cicalese said.
Headquartered in Bethesda, Md., Mar-riott International Inc. operates 3,187 U.S. locations, including 116 in Pennsylvania, with the 85-year-old company to make The Courtyard its 10th Philly venue. As The Navy Yard has a commitment to cutting edge designs, the spot will further the em-phasis on modernity with a rain-screen sys-
tem comprised of alternating metal panels and glazing. The façade will vary in color and shadow depending upon the time of day and intensity of sunlight.
The development corporation encour-ages new building projects’ heads to regis-ter with the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Environmental and Energy Design program, with the hopes that their creations will gain at least silver certifi ca-tion, according to The Navy Yard’s web-site. Many Navy Yard locations have ob-tained or will acquire LEED distinction, and the Courtyard will join them upon its completion, Cicalese said.
“There have not been any snags, per se, only the usual challenges like building to a budget, fi nancing the project and design-ing a hotel that all were satisfi ed with,” he said, noting work will occur in one con-tinuous phase.
“The Navy Yard is a magnet for forward-thinking companies and a true workplace for the future,” John Gattuso, Liberty Prop-erty’s senior vice president and regional director, added. “This important amenity will further the emergence of The Navy Yard as the place for companies seeking a dynamic, innovative workforce.” SPR

A South of South makeup designer gets in the holiday spirit by constructing otherworldly creatures for the
area’s largest haunted house.
By Jess FuerstReview Contr ibutor
When Eastern State Penitentiary closed in 1971, the prisoners left, but the stories remained. For years, people have come to soak in the landmark’s his-
tory, and, every fall, to get scared half to death. “Besides new zones we have new characters and new
creatures,” Lauren Palmer, of 22nd and Carpenter streets, said of Terror Behind the Walls, which consists of six haunted attractions at the former prison. “It’s not just your regular guards, and everything across the board looks great. The whole show looks great. I just love this, every aspect is taken into account.”
Palmer, who joined Terror six years ago as a makeup art-ist, stepped into the role of makeup director this season after serving as an assistant director last year.
“We started about the end of May, and, in June, we had creative team meetings. I’m part of the group that decides what the haunted house will look like, aesthetically, char-acteristic-wise, and help contribute to the entire scale of things,” the 29-year-old said.
The months of planning can be seen nightly on display in the streets around the penitentiary and inside the nooks and crannies of the 183-year-old Fairmount site, where more than 100 actors don various levels of Palmer’s prosthetics and makeup to transform into ghouls and other creatures of the undead.

“We have a ranking depending on how visible the person is. Actors rotate so they get to do different makeup choices,” Palm-er, who oversees a 19-member team, said. “Makeup artists get a number, like a “2” requires around three minutes, maybe a “5” is 15 minutes.
“So with 107 actors, roughly, to get through the chairs, it’s about two-and-a-half hours time. They have to average be-tween seven to 11 per chair, depending on the looks they get, each night.”
The work for the fi rst-time cosmetics head of this production started months prior, when she conceived her creative concepts and execution procedures.
“I really wanted to push the idea of fi lm-quality makeup but in a haunted house. There are a lot of prosthetics this year. I designed the looks and the concept behind them,” she said. “I made slab molds and sculpted on-face looks. It allows for dif-ferent looks. You don’t have to cast the full face on each person. It’s what I did all summer.”
FROM OCEAN CITY, Md., Palmer made her way to Philly to matriculate at Temple University. The groundwork for her in-tended major — fi lm and television media arts — had been laid as early as age 3.
“My parents allowed me to fl ourish. I was in college plays at 8 years old. I was interested in [being a] character designer at a young age,” Palmer said. “I was big into the costuming and makeup being done correctly. I ran the makeup department in high school and that continued in college.
“I started doing people’s senior thesis projects. I would take on multiple job positions, including defi ning the visual aesthetic.”
Graduating in 2005, Palmer continued her studies in special-effect makeup, tak-ing a brief trip north.
“I’ve gone to a ton of school. I’m a be-liever in school; I think it’s great. You can hone your craft and talk to other people,” Palmer, a certifi ed makeup artist and li-censed cosmotologist, who attended the Make-up Designory in Manhattan, said. “I think you can learn every single day from somebody.”
With further training under her belt, she moved back to the area to pursue a full-time career in the very competitive inde-pendent fi lm industry.
“I had to do a lot of free work to build my résumé and make connections, get ex-perience,” Palmer said. “Eventually you start saying ‘No.’ You realize you had ex-perience so you start setting limits low and
then they get higher and higher.”Pleased she was able to fi nd steady work
in Philly, Palmer fi nds the Terror gig to be a nice supplement to her yearly calendar, though she also is glad the city is pushing for increased big-budget fi lming.
“I like to be challenged and for my work to differ,” Palmer, whose work has been showcased on the New York runways and in “Transformers 2,” said. “I appreciate doing a wedding and I appreciate mak-ing zombies. There are different types of characters here and there are new zones — that was great, designing new char-acters for that. It’s the same thing with fi lm.” I do different fi lms to be challenged to make new creatures and characters, de-signing stuff.”
Setting up shop in South of South four-and-a-half years ago, Palmer said she was drawn to the neighborhood feel that re-minds her of home.
“I like Philadelphia. I’m from a small town and when I tried living in New York, it was busy, busy, busy — no one pays any attention to anybody. Here, you know your neighbor and people that come to the local restaurant. I found an area that I thought was up-and-coming and de-cided to buy on new construction there. My neighborhood has changed 360. It’s a
beautiful space to be.”Until Terror closes its doors for the ’12
season Nov. 3, Palmer will be spending ev-ery night — except for her exactly one day off — at the penitentiary, which housed Chicago gangster Al Capone from 1929 to ’30 and New York bank robber Willie Sut-ton in the mid-’40s. In anticipation of one of her favorite holidays Oct. 31, the Terror team is making big plans.
“For Halloween, the green room manag-ers, we come up with a design every year then we all have our own costumes,” she said, adding that it’s always a secret until that night. “It’s a ritual.”
Every other night, however, is also a par-ty for the makeup director as she gets to see the immediate impact of her designs, on performers and audience members alike.
“The most rewarding part is seeing an actor you’ve designed for enjoy the way they look and the way they feel,” Palmer said. “Another rewarding part is seeing the reaction of the customers and how much the actor is feeling the character. You can see the actor enjoy it and the customer en-joy the actor.” SPR

Some of these days
In many ways, Mom was not the stereo-typical Italian mother. First off, she was American-born and was younger than a lot of my other friends’ mothers. She
had “dirty” blonde hair (how I hated that term) and blue-green eyes. She liked to dress in bright colors, and although I nev-er told her this, she wasn’t a particularly good cook. But even though her mother had died when she was 7, the fatalism so imbued in Italian women had somehow seeped into her soul.
She looked at life as an accident that only St. Rita could unravel. There was a statue of St. Rita in my parents’ bedroom. I’ve often wondered if Dad had any say in the matter. Like so many Italian women, my mother had a patron saint. She never explained why she had this attachment to St. Rita. There wasn’t a “Rita” in our fam-ily history as far as I know. My mother’s name was Eleanor; her middle name was Theresa after her mother. Mom never asked for God’s intercession to solve any of her many crises. She viewed St. Rita as her personal advocate. And Mom did not share St. Rita. You wanted a heavenly advocate, go get your own.
Mom constantly reminded us of her im-portance in the household. One of her fa-vorite songs was Sophie Tucker’s “Some of These Days,” which she would sing while doing household chores. When she got to the line, “you’ll miss me, honey,” she put extra oomph into it. You knew she was sending you a message.
Back in Mom’s day, there was another popular song called a “Slow Boat to Chi-na.” Mom loved to threaten us with leav-ing on a slow boat to China if she ever got fed up with us. She was doing us a favor sticking around and putting up with our shenanigans (Mom never used the word “shenanigans”). Funny thing is she knew she would never leave us and so did we. It was all part of some elaborate charade she had to go through to prove her point. And she did it on almost a daily basis.
I think it was out of this feeling to be needed that she courted death like many of the Italian women of past generations. She had almost a love affair with death. True, she had health problems as far back as I can remember, but it was more than that. She was one of these women that just begged death to take her. Death was her
substitute for that slow boat to China that she would never take.
When her father died at the age of 83, never having had a prolonged illness, Mom wore black for a year. She didn’t come down from her bedroom, except to eat, for three months, which exasperated my father to no end. Her sisters were much the same way. My aunt Mary came to my home for dinner about six months after her father died and turned her back on our television the entire time of her visit. Aunt Jenny tried to toss herself into the grave of my grandfather during his funeral ceremony and made it a regular ritual of hers every time someone in the family passed away. It got so bad some-one in our family had to be assigned to catch aunt Jenny at every funeral before she jumped. It was as if she yearned for the grave like some of us look forward to a European vacation and one day landed there herself.
My father assumed he was going to out-live Mom. I guess he fi gured any woman whose favorite phrase was, “God, why not me?” would get her wish granted at some point. Dad warned me not to get offend-ed because when Mom died, he intended to run off with some blonde on his arm. I dutifully assured him he would always be welcome in our home, even with his blonde. To Dad’s surprise, he went 20 years before Mom. On his death bed, he managed a smile and uttered those fateful words that still ring in my ears, “She’s all yours now, sonny boy.”
Mom was not so much devastated by Dad’s death as angry. By her reasoning, Dad had deliberately abandoned her. She was the victim. Dad had run off and died. You could never rely on that man. She found herself now arguing with Dad in her sleep. Just as in real life, Mom won all the arguments. Again she started with, “God, why not me?’ Had she offended God? Is that why he took Dad fi rst? Was she, Eleanor, unworthy? What had she done to deserve to live? It should be not-ed she only turned to God to ask these questions after St. Rita abandoned her. Apparently, somewhere along the way, St. Rita had gotten tired of listening to Mom’s complaints and decided, let her go whine to another saint. St. Rita must have asked, “God, why me? Haven’t I been a good person? You don’t make just anyone a saint, right? Hand her over to St. Theresa, please.”
When Mom did pass away, it took me some time before I realized she wasn’t just playing one of her jokes. One of these days had arrived. And she was right, we do miss her. SPR

By R. Kurt OsenlundMovie Rev iewer
“Do you like nature, Dr. Cross?” a character asks the epony-mous hero in this self-serious thriller.
“Human nature,” the detective and crim-inal psychologist fi res back.
Directed by Rob Cohen, whose biggest hit was “The Fast and the Furious,” “Alex Cross” is fi lled with line-readings tailor-made for accompanying rimshots, or may-be “oohs” and “boo-yas” from a live studio audience. In the title role, Tyler Perry is en-couraged to intone like a Sunday-morning preacher, around whom other characters shut up and listen as he gabs about souls and hell. The risible script is the work of Kerry Williamson and Marc Moss, the lat-ter of whom also adapted 2001’s “Along Came a Spider,” the last shoddy movie fea-turing James Patterson’s case-cracker.
Perry has never appeared in a fi lm he didn’t develop himself, and while he doesn’t necessarily fl ub his fi rst trek out-side the box, he’s headlining a vehicle that doesn’t much benefi t anyone. Patterson has seen his novels’ fi lm versions decline since “Kiss the Girls” in 1997, when the vener-able Morgan Freeman originated the Cross role. Cohen has never made an exemplary movie, but he fi rmly cements his post-“Fast and the Furious” downswing. Matthew Fox, who’s a bit too zealous in his search for work after “Lost,” whips himself into solid, yet borderline-sickly, shape, playing a killer with crazy eyes and over-the-top tics.
So, if “Alex Cross” isn’t dreadful, it’s still a consummate downgrade, and it feels like a standard-issue actioner left over form ’93. What’s it all about? The usual stuff: An all-star policeman meets his homicid-al match, and the proceedings boil down
to a mano-y-mano showdown, which, of course, isn’t quite the true ending.
The movie’s only real relevance stems from its setting of Detroit, a broken city whose streets look no better in this tale of murder and decay. But “Alex Cross” has such little interest in anything beyond plot mechanics that pointing out points of substance feels preposterously generous. It’s a shame, because Cross has franchise potential in a biz where action heroes are whitewashed. Everyone, on screen and off, deserves better.
Alex CrossPG-13One-and-a-half reels out of fourNow playing in area theaters
Ruby SparksRAvailable Tuesday
Real-life sweethearts Paul Dano and Zoe Kazan star in “Ruby Sparks,” the win-some and surprisingly daring sophomore fi lm from “Little Miss Sunshine” helmers Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris. Dano plays a struggling novelist who dreams up Kazan’s titular muse, and the couple’s love unfolds in a dance of witty, Frankenstein-ian developments. Kazan wrote the sharp script herself, and her artistic advancement is two-fold, as she also gives one of the year’s best female performances. SPR

Cantina Los Caballitos, 1651 E. Passyunk Ave., holds its annual
Halloween fi esta 11 a.m. Oct. 30 through 2 a.m. Oct . 31 with holiday-themed bites, drinks and activities. Orange and pumpkin seed guacamole and beef heart anticuchos are a couple of the featured menu items while the collection of wickedly boozy drinks include the Witches’ Brew, Sinister Cider and Vampiro.
For more information, call 215-755-3550 or visit cantinaloscaballi-tos.com. SPR
W ith Halloween less than a week away, pumpkins seem to be popping up everywhere. Local farms have reserved several acres of open space for these large, round ob-
jects that are now in their prime picking season. Some enjoy getting in the spirit by carving out a spooky, glow-in-the-dark face (candle not included).
Laura Okidi, of the 2400 block of South 11th Street, prefers going the cooking route with her perfect-for-autumn Pumpkin Soup. No hayride to the patch is required as her recipe calls for two 15-ounce cans of pumpkin puree. Several spoonfuls will warm the tummy for that handful of candy that’s likely to follow Wednesday night. SPR
I N G R E D I E N T S :6 cups of chicken stock or
broth2 15-ounce cans of pumpkin
puree1 onion, chopped 2 garlic cloves, minced1 teaspoon of parsleySalt and pepper, to taste1/2 cup of heavy cream
D I R E C T I O N S :Heat all of the ingredients
except for the cream on low for 30 minutes, stirring oc-casionally. Blend the soup with an emulsifi er or in a blender. Return the soup to the pot and bring to a boil, then simmer on low for an additional 30 minutes. Mix in the cream and serve hot.

Last week, Sandy and I watched “Top Chef” contestants working with oys-ters and clams. We knew what was going to be on tap for supper. During
happy hour, the Oyster House on Sansom Street offers a buck a shuck for the oyster of the day and cherrystone clams. Those Delaware Bay oysters and jumbo Jersey cherrystones were delectable.
As we walked home, we discovered La Petite Dauphine, a new French café on Walnut Street near 21st. The colorful out-door sign was most inviting. It featured a photograph of multi-colored macaroons made famous by the great French pastry chef Francois Payard.
The following day, Sandy and I decided to lunch at La Petite Dauphine. The room is kitted out in black and white with high ceilings, original moldings and wainscot-ing with delicate clear glass vases fi lled with soft-colored fl owers affi xed to the walls. The menu was small but I never have a problem with that.
Sandy chose the tomato salad ($10) and I began with wild mushroom soup ($7) followed by salade Niçoise ($13).
It is safe to say Friday Saturday Sunday, which has been in business for nearly 40 years, serves the fi nest wild mushroom soup in the city. Unfortunately for me, I re-ceived a travesty. A café au lait-sized bowl was about half fi lled with a thin, gray liq-uid that lacked any wild mushroom fl avor and was so salty, no human could eat it.
Our server removed it while we waited for our next course. She returned a few minutes later to let us know the chef was fi xing the soup. You cannot fi x an extreme-
ly salty, watery soup. Any chef worth his or her salt (pun not intended here) can do this. The lunch immediately went into a downward spiral.
We asked for bread with our entrées since a fi ne baguette is one of the hall-marks of a French café. About 10 minutes later, a waitress brought me two slices of dry, whole wheat toast.
“I don’t have a baguette now, but I can run out and get you one,” a gentleman told us.
I don’t have to tell you what was going through my mind at that moment. I asked for a croissant ($2.50), which we shared.
Sandy’s tomato salad consisted of sev-eral thin slices of pale, unripe tomato that tasted like cardboard. They were so anemic they needed a blood transfusion. Some red onion, a few canned black olives, a small mound of soggy mesclun straight from the bag comprised her lunch.
I almost shed a tear when I saw the salade Niçoise. It was an insult to French cuisine and I have no idea what the chef was thinking. My plate was set with over-dressed, soggy, bagged mesclun; a hard-cooked egg cut in half; a few slices of sushi-like tuna, which lacked fl avor; some chopped tomatoes, as described above; and a few canned black olives, which tast-ed like vulcanized rubber.
“Where are the Niçoise olives?” I asked my sister. “They are available everywhere.”
Whoever was in the kitchen forgot the haricots vert which were listed on the menu. A waitress brought me a few ordinary blanched green beans on a separate plate.
“The chef did not salt the salad,” she told me.
As Gordon Ramsey would say, “oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.”
Sandy and I sampled both desserts be-cause we were still hungry. A slice of fl ourless chocolate cake ($6) was not too bad, but it sat naked on the plate. It needed some whipped cream to balance the richness of the chocolate. The lemon tart ($6) contained a wee bit more gelatin than I like but at least the balance of acid and sweet was just fi ne. A large cup of illy
coffee was brewed just right and was the highlight of the day.
This establishment needs work. One tip of the toque to La Petite Dauphine. SPR

By Phyllis Stein-NovackFood Columnist
I am falling into a vegetable rut. I pre-pare the same Brussels sprouts with caramelized shallots and pancetta, baby peas with pearl onions, roasted potatoes
with herbs and green beans with garlic.For a number of years, we ate a lot of
broccoli. Edward recently brought home a bag fi lled with fresh, deep, green broc-coli rounds and I set out to create a new side dish that would enhance our weekly roast chicken dinner. I looked to Asia for inspiration.
Sometimes a culinary mistake leads to a delicious dish. I always zap acorn squash in the microwave for a minute or so to insure easy slicing. I wanted to cut them in half, add a dot of butter, salt and honey and roast them in the oven. I lost track of the time and wound up with over-cooked squash. A remedy sprung to mind. I scooped out the fl esh and turned it into a tasty puree.
While shopping at Springdale Farms in Cherry Hill, N.J., I happened upon a jum-bo caulifl ower fresh from the fi eld. Instead of steaming it, I baked it in the oven and enjoyed the results.
You might not think a simple onion would enhance an entrée. But if you fol-low my recipe, you will discover a new side dish fi lled with fl avor
■ Asian-Style Broccoli ■Ingredients:
4 tablespoons of Canola oil
1 large shallot, sliced4 fat garlic cloves, slicedBroccoli crowns from 1 large head1 large red bell pepper, seeded and
diced2 tablespoons of soy sauce1 tablespoon of sesame oilSprinkling of hot pepper fl akes
Directions:Heat the oil over high in a wok or large
skillet. Lower the heat to medium-high and add the shallot and garlic. Stir-fry for about a minute.
Add the broccoli and red pepper and stir-fry vigorously for about two minutes. Add all of the remaining ingredients and stir-fry another minute or so.
Taste and correct for seasoning, if need-ed. Soy sauce tends to be salty so you may not need kosher salt.
Serves four.
■ Acorn Squash Puree ■Ingredients:
2 large acorn squash4 tablespoons of unsalted butter1 tablespoon of honeyKosher salt, to taste
Directions:Place the squash in a glass dish. Mi-
crowave on high for about fi ve minutes. Carefully remove the squash from the mi-crowave, set them on a cutting board and allow to cool for at least 30 minutes.
Slice each squash in half. Remove the seeds and fi brous threads. Save the seeds for toasting if you like.
Carefully scoop out the fl esh and place it in a saucepan. Set the heat on low and carefully mash the squash using the back of a spoon.
Add all of the remaining ingredients, raise the heat to medium-high and heat through.
Serves four.
Note from Phyllis: You can add a sprin-kling of ginger or nutmeg to the squash puree.
■ Baked Onions ■Ingredients:
4 large sweet onions, peeled4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, di-
videdKosher salt and freshly ground black
pepper, to tasteSprinkling of garlic powder
Directions:Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.Tear off four sheets of aluminum foil
large enough to completely wrap the onions.
Place each onion on the aluminum foil. Dot with the butter and season with the salt, pepper and garlic powder.
Wrap the onions with the foil. Place them on a baking sheet. Bake for one hour.
Serves four.
■ Baked Caulifl ower ■Ingredients;
1 large head of caulifl ower, cut into fl o-rets
4 tablespoons of olive oilKosher salt and freshly ground black
pepper, to taste 1 cup of freshly grated Parmesan 1 cup of grated cheese of choice such as
Gruyere, Swiss or cheddar
Directions:Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Place the caulifl ower in the pan. Drizzle with the oil and add the salt and pepper. Toss well.
Bake for 30 minutes tossing well so the caulifl ower browns evenly. Sprinkle with the cheeses and bake for about another minute until the cheeses melt.
Serves four. SPR

fSCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21): Deciding whether to attend a family event may cause equal
amounts of suffering and joy. Find out who is on the guest list as soon as possible. Lucky number: 564.
gSAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21): You’re be-ing pushed in a certain direction. The fact that the
process is being accelerated faster than preferred that is raising concerns. Lucky number: 693.
hCAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19): A new plan is about to be put into effect. You will detach your-
self from the situation in order to see it clearly. Lucky number: 470.
AAQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18): You have faced your share of confrontation and concern. Although
the noise has died down and you’re able to focus on rebuild-ing something relating to reputation, you have a fantastic contribution to make in another area. Lucky number: 348.
SPISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20): Strength and in-fl uence is increasing, as well as the level of sup-
port you’re receiving from certain people. Anticipate see-ing evidence that you hold considerably more infl uence than believed. Lucky number: 844.

benefi ts there are to you of pacifying someone in such a demanding way. Lucky number: 587.

arrangements to spend quality time together in advance. Unexpected romantic connections may be made by going out with friends. Lucky number: 821.

being frank and open. Feelings are easily modifi ed, which is not a good thing. Lucky number: 762.
aLEO (July 23 to Aug. 22): Being focused on desires will help you get one step closer to goals. This is not
the time to party with friends or sleep all day. It’s time to buckle down. Lucky number: 657.
sVIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22): You are fi nally starting to connect with someone new on a much
deeper level and it could be the start of something exciting. Have at least one conversation with this person, just to keep that connection alive and well. Lucky number: 103.
dLIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22): Be very mindful of others and they will reward this act of selfl ess-
ness with a life-changing piece of information. Put your-self in the service of an elderly friend or relative. Lucky number: 251. SPR

my heart you fi lled with pleasure. One day again I know we will be together!
All my love to you my dear husband, MY BEST FRIEND FOREVER!

By Joseph MyersReview Staff Writer
In his rst two seasons as a starter for Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., forward John Davis master-fully used his limbs to earn consecutive
First Team All-Catholic selections. Though eager to extend his secondary site’s domi-nance, the senior felt he needed to halt pondering his next stop, so he called on another body part Oct. 15 in committing to Maryland’s Towson University.
“It’s the place my heart led me to choose,” the 18-year-old said Friday. “While there, I know I’ll grow to be a better player and will enjoy being a student athlete.”
The resident of Fifth Street and Wash-ington Avenue chose the Colonial Athletic Association institution from among 30 pur-suers, mostly East Coast entities enamored with his 6-foot-5, 210-pound frame. He paid it his lone offi cial visit two weeks ago, intensifying senses of camaraderie and pur-pose from his unoffi cial jaunts.
“The current Towson guys kept saying how much they are looking to welcom-ing me,” Davis said of their believing he would pick their squad. “I’m really antici-pating working with them to build a solid program.”
In hoping to make his soon-to-be school a national presence, the teenager has set himself a large goal, as the Tigers regis-tered only one win last year and typically struggle to best their conference brethren, including Drexel University and the Uni-versity of Delaware.
“I could have said ‘Yes’ to an offer from somewhere with a better basketball pedigree, but the enthusiasm I noticed among the coaching staff and players was really attractive,” he said.
The skilled left-hander has experi-enced the opposite exis tence when courting secondary victories. His East Passyunk Cross-ing-based Saints have claimed the last four Catholic
League and City titles while also captur-ing three straight PIAA Class AAA state championships. Davis, who played spar-ingly yet confi dently as a freshman, has given coach Carl Arrigale another devotee to selfl ess play and will team with senior guard Hanif Sutton as co-captains and de-fenders of their facility’s record-setting 70 straight parochial wins.
“John has made great strides and shown tremendous maturity,” Arrigale said. “He will go down as one of our best.”
Set to enter his 14th campaign guid-ing the school’s hoopsters, the resident of the 2900 block of South 15th Street noted Da-vis agonized over the process yet believes the star will approach this year with ease and relaxation. As his present and current
locations often rely on perimeter precision, Davis fi gures to further his wing identity.
“I want to work on my ball handling and guard skills the most,” he said of his primary tasks in helping coach Pat Skeery to see that the Tigers roar to respectability then sovereignty. “I know it’s easy to think I can dominate, but there are always big-ger and stronger guys, so I have to be at Towson the way I am at Neumann-Goretti, humble and hungry.”
THE SAINTS TALLIED a 28-3 mark last sea-son, with Davis amassing 399 points,
good for a 12.9 average that placed him behind only now-junior guard Ja’Quan Newton. He failed to reach double dig-its only twice and pulled in nearly 11 rebounds per contest. His penchant for clutch efforts helped him to average 15.8 points in Neumann-Goretti’s fi ve state tournament affairs and brought him MVP honors at May 30’s Community College of Philadelphia-hosted Wayne Ellington All-City Basketball Classic.
“I’ve never tried to put too much pres-sure on myself,” Davis said. “I just go out and look to remain calm about what’s in front of me.”
This season’s clearest views would seem to be helping Arrigale to earn his ninth Catholic League championship and mold-ing his younger teammates into willing recipients of their school’s status as a van-guard. The Saints begin their slate Dec. 7, and Davis knows the ever-expanding tar-get on their backs will inspire opponents to gun for upsets.
“We’ll be ready for tough nonleague ac-tion, and then we’ll look to expand our Catholic League streak,” he said. “Every-one is looking forward to a typical year, and by typical I mean one where we’re all pulling for one another.”
That mentality should make him many peers at Towson, which is planning to open Tiger Arena, a 5,200-seat capacity facil-ity, in the spring. The new location makes Davis feel more inspired about rebuilding the school’s reputation, as it offers a literal example of novelty.
“I want fans to fi nd us entertaining and have no doubt they will,” he said.
While not dribbling, he will be scrib-bling notes as either a business or sports management major. The former appeals to him because of his desire to create his own construction company, with the lat-ter coming from his interest in athletics’ fi nancial facets.
“Whatever he does, he will do it with a relentless motor,” Arrigale said. “His will is every bit as strong, if not stronger than, his skill.”
“It’s all about growth from here on in,” Davis said. “Humble and hungry.” SPR
