To the Editor: Because we are human, all or most
of us have certain traits, characteris-tics or emotional disorders that other-wise normally healthy people would rather not have to deal with. Some, with a bit of effort, can be controlled or even eliminated.
One of those disorders may never be cured. Even with attempts at its curing, the joyful pleasure of the de-liberate and evil torture of helpless animals (“No Vicktory for protestors, Dec. 23) is the strongest indication of a very sick-minded person that will grow into a very wicked adult.
They are just born that way. Just as being left- or right-handed, your neighborhood, lifestyle, friends or family or poverty have nothing to do with it. It is there, will never be cured and will never go away.
I can excuse and forgive a lot of bad things and although I know it is a sickness, cruelty — especially the torture of animals — is too monstrous and shockingly horrible to be excused or forgiven. Those who do excuse it have their own mental disorder. I am more than sure because cruelty of any kind is indefensible, inexcusable and should never be forgiven.
I cannot stand to look at the face of Michael Vick. I must turn away because he stirs up such strong and overwhelming emotion in me and makes me wish for him the harm he did to those loving and adorable dogs he mangled to please his sick, twisted and cruel mind.
He, like his ilk, was very clever and meticulous at handling the initial outcry hurled against him. The nerve he has for wanting a dog. But let’s be real on the matter that he is all better. I repeat cruelty is a sickness that you are born with, Michael Vick, and you can’t fool this man. I wouldn’t let you raise cockroaches much less another poor animal
Fill your sickness with all the mon-ey you can, but in the end, there is your just reward.
Frank CavallaroSouth Philadelphia
To the Editor:I am on both sides of the fence with
this one. I am a diehard Eagles fan, but Michael Vick and people like him (athletes, stars) always get away with murder. Vick was on top of the world back in Atlanta (as he is once again
somehow). Kids idolized him, people wanted to be him and he did what he did. But yet again, an athlete gets a second chance.
When I was much younger, I did something stupid and got into trou-ble. I’ve paid for it ever since by be-ing turned down for decent jobs and being looked at in a different light. When do people like me get a break (the regular non-millionaire)? When one thing goes wrong for them, they whine and hold press conferences. The rest of the world doesn’t have an option to tell how good of a worker we are in a press conference, hoping someone will look past our issue and hire us.
I root for the Birds as a team, but not for that individual. When Vick doesn’t play for us anymore, I hope he gets his [due]. I am not an activist, I am just a man stating a fact.
Joseph CamodecaSouth Philadelphia
Thanks to thenice gentleman To the Editor:
I’ve come to realize that people do care about others. Recently, while shopping, I had a terrible fall and fell fl at on my face.
A man came to my rescue and helped me up. He got me some tis-sues and a bottle of water. I didn’t get his name, but a big thank you from a grateful lady.
Mary Focoso South Philadelphia
It’s the season to be cheerful and jollyTo the Editor:
In keeping with the season to be jolly and cheerful, it is about time we, as homeowners in Philadelphia, thank Mayor Michael Nutter for the 9.9 percent hike in our real estate tax; as if we aren’t taxed enough in this city. This is jolly good news. It’s great that he selected homeowners to bail out the city for his inadequacy. All residents, not just homeowners, should help pay for this bailout. Why not imposing a head tax on every
adult instead of just taxing a chosen few.
I am a 77-year-old homeowner and this will be the third time in a little more than a year my real estate tax has increased. I also am jolly about Mayor Nutter not informing [low-income] seniors, except by comput-ers, of the opportunity to apply for a tax freeze. Most seniors don’t have the luxury of a computer or the know how to use one. A notice should have been sent to all senior homeowners.
Another thing I am really thankful for is not voting for Nutter. In the 77 years I have lived, I can remember we Philadelphians have had our share of bad mayors. However, Nutter has really tried to be the absolute worst that I can remember.
My last thanks is to all residents of Philadelphia. I know you are all smart enough not to elect him to a second term. If you do, you deserve everything he takes away from you including your money.

How Facebook saved the planetDec. 22
I’m going to be honest with you guys. I didn’t vote on Nov. 2. I didn’t know
who was running and frankly, I didn’t care. I don’t even know what mid-term elections for Congress are.
I wasn’t alone however in my choice to not vote. Only 9 percent of eligible Gen-Y voters decided to vote. Why was there such a low turnout compared to the 2008 Obama presidential election? I think it’s because politics have gotten ugly.
There is no bigger turnoff for Gen-Yers than confl ict. We were raised in a cushy, velvet-lined world where we were praised not only for winning, but simply trying. My generation might as well be called
“Generation Labrador.” We are the ide-alistic, bleeding heart-ed, tail waggers of America’s history. We want nothing more than to text all of our 754 Facebook friends throughout the day. We love our parents, ride our bikes to our nonprofi t jobs, eat or-ganically and buy handmade items off of Etsy. We’re not exactly hippies, but we’re damn close to it.
The angry, ignorant political wars of ’10 don’t really matter to me. Why the am-bivalence? Well, for one thing, I hate yell-ing. I also hate the blind embracement of religion and the rejection of science and evidence of global warming. I also really hate stupid wilderness shows about dumb female politicians with glasses who fi sh all of the damn time.
Two years ago, the Obama Administration promised us hope. It promised something new, shiny and bright, and it used social me-dia and snappy art to deliver that promise to my generation. As much as I still support Obama, he’s just not pulling his weight any-more and that hope has lost its luster.
I don’t think we need politicians to change the world. I don’t want to ... SPR

The weekend storm may have delivered a post-Chrismas present measuring more than a foot Sunday, but that didn’t stop ticket holders for “Disney on Ice — Toy Story 3” from trekking down South Broad Street for its Tuesday morning show.

A man slipped in an elderly woman’s residence through an open door as she unloaded bags from her car.
The 81-year-old returned home from shopping at about 5:35 p.m. and parked in her garage on the 2400 block of South Ninth Street, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. While she was carrying her pur-chases inside, a man followed her in the kitchen and demanded money. She gave him $218. As he fled her home, he knocked over a TV and ripped the cord out of her telephone.
The suspect was described as white, 5-foot-9 and wearing a green jacket with a scarf covering his face.
To report information, call the FBI at 215-418-4000.
After-Christmas theivery A Lower Moyamensing bank was
robbed of a few hundred dollars Monday morning.
A man entered Wachovia Bank, 2227 S. Broad St., at 10:50 a.m., handed a teller a demand note that had “give me the mon-
ey. I have a gun” written on it, De-tective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Divi-sion said. The employee gave the man $350 before he fl ed in an unknown di-rection.
The suspect was described as black with a dark com-plexion, age 30 to 40, 5-foot-10 to 6 foot, with a medium build, mustache and wear-ing a brown jacket, gray hoody and dark-colored gloves.
To report information, call South Detec-tives at 215-686-3013.
Wheels slitTen car owners woke up to discover
their vehicle’s tires sliced last week in Gi-rard Estate.
After a 71-year-old woman called police to report the vandalism at 7:53 a.m. Dec.
23, offi cers located the 10 automobiles in the middle of the 2000 block of Ritner Street resulting in approximately $3,800 in damage, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said.
Detectives were unable to obtain video surveillance or witnesses, but it is be-lieved to have occurred between 4:30 and 7:50 a.m., Tolliver said.
To report information, call South Detec-tives at 215-686-3013.
Mugger makes Santa’s naughty listA woman was mugged as she walked
home from a family member’s home on Christmas Eve.
A 71-year-old was walking on the 1100 block of Bigler Street at 8:15 p.m. Dec. 24 when a man exited a dark-colored vehicle and grabbed her pocketbook containing identifi cation, a bank card and $25, Detec-tive Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The man knocked her to the ground before returning to the car and fl ee-ing in an unknown direction.
The victim did not seek medical atten-tion, Tolliver said.
The suspect was described as black, age 20, 5-foot-7, 200 pounds, with a scruffy beard and wearing a black jacket and dark pants.
To report information, call South Detec-tives at 215-686-3013.
Newbold robberyA man pushed a woman to the ground in
Newbold before snatching her purse in a strong-arm robbery last week.
The man grabbed a 58-year-old wom-an’s handbag at 6:40 p.m. as she walked along the 1700 block of McKean Street Dec. 23, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. He shoved her to the ground before running west on McKean with her bag that contentained her identifi cation, SEPTA tokens and a pair of reading glasses.
The offender was described as 5-foot-8 and wearing dark clothing and blue jeans.
To report information, call South Detec-tives at 215-686-3013. SPR

Review Staff Writer and Intern
Perhaps people grew too fond of theories that the world will end in 2012, as this year was certainly one
with few certainties. With school violence, seemingly endless snow and stalled enter-tainment projects dominating the head-lines, life in South Philadelphia became a game of “what will we face today?”
There were occasional highs thanks to the Flyers’ run to the Stanley Cup Finals and Roy Halladay’s proving that Philadelphia is again a baseball-fren-zied town, but outside of the sporting world, there were struggles. Add Sun-
day’s snowstorm, and we are again left to wonder what the next 12 months will bring. Before we become too engrossed in prognosticating, here is a look at what fate gave South Philly in ’10.
JanuaryCitizens’ Alliance for Better Neighbor-
hoods, 1137 Wharton St., had its work put on hold while the courts decided whether to disband the nonprofi t’s board or revoke its status. Attorney General and Gov.-elect Tom Corbett fi led a lawsuit against the nonprofi t following convictions for its co-founder and ex-state Sen. Vince Fumo and former Executive Director Ruth Ar-nao for defrauding the group of more than $1 million.
Pennsport residents had cause to revel with the City’s announcement of a light-rail system. The proposed $364 to $514 million project would connect Center City with the Delaware River waterfront and could one day feature stops at the Navy Yard and sports complex.
A mysterious odor hit the air follow-ing an equipment cleaning to a scheduled maintenance project. A spokesman for the Sunoco Refi nery, 3144 W. Passyunk Ave., attributed the smell that later drifted into local neighborhoods to oil that had landed
on the roof of a large storage tank. After a 7.0-magnitude earthquake hit his
birthplace, Haitian-born Ralph Toussaint, a senior at South Phildelphia High School, 2101 S.

FebruaryThe initial Philadelphia Commission on

An area family cheers on one of their youngest as she shows her skill on the stage
at the Academy of Music starting Jan. 4.
By Jess FuerstReview Contr ibutor
Anastasia Korbal knows what she wants to do for the rest of her life. She has been on several multi-city tours and is only 10 years old.
“I wanted to start acting when I was about 3 and did my fi rst show when I was 5,” Korbal, who is a stage actress and singer, said. “When I was a little bit younger, I used to always watch movies, listen to music, like ‘Harry Potter’ and ‘Annie.’ Everyday I would want to be a different character from the movies and if you called me by my real name I wouldn’t answer.”
Soon she will be answering to the name Cosette as the aspir-ing actress/singer beat out thousands for the part of Young Cosette
in the 25th-anniversary production of “Les Misérables.” The work is based on the novel penned by Victor Hugo that

follows several French characters through the early 19th century. Cosette is the young girl featured on the play’s iconic posters.
“My favorite part about performing is getting to have a different personality ev-ery night and making people happy and seeing how they react to the show,” Kor-bal, whose family is from 11th and Moore streets, said. “I’m never nervous. I’m just always excited. There are many roles I’ve always wanted to play as an adult and as a child.”
When the play opens for the fi rst offi cial stop of its tour in Philadelphia, there is one person who is sure to be front and center.
“I think everybody I know is going to come to [the] Philadelphia [show]. My Papi is most excited,” Korbal said of her grandfather, Albert Fortino, 83, who still lives in Passyunk Square and who has almost never missed one of Korbal’s shows.
The cast and crew spent fi ve weeks re-hearsing in New York before moving on to previews currently running in New Jersey. Korbal attends school full time near the family’s Jersey home when her schedule allows. But she doesn’t miss it much when she’s caught up in the excitement of the performance.
“Everyone’s very, very friendly. We’re a
big family. … We’re doing previews. They are going really, really great,” Korbal said. “I’m closest to ‘the children’ ’cause we al-ways have to stay together. We are kind of like brothers and sisters backstage.”
In preparation, Korbal learned about the story and her character, but she says the current production far surpasses the one she saw before.
“I only saw it on a concert version, but this production had a lot more set and de-sign and scenery than the concert,” she said. “Yes, Cosette has a bunch of spe-cial effects that are really, really amazing. Well, they make it snow on a hologram a little and they have huge towers in Paris and they move back and forth.”
KORBAL WAS BORN in mom Christine Korbal’s hometown of South Philly and moved with the family — which now includes Isabella, 7, and Christian, 19 months — when she was age 7 to be closer to her mom’s job. She has con-tinued dance training she began at The Dancer’s Studio, 16th and Shunk streets, to this day.
“I started dancing when I was 2,” Korbal said of the studio she trains at where her mother also danced growing up under the same teacher. “I do jazz, tap and ballet and
musical theater.”When she was selected for a role in
“Annie” at age 5, Christine thought it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity so the family made sure she could go on the tour. It turned out that Korbal’s talent was able to keep the ball rolling in a business that can be brutal to even its most gifted members.
“It is not the usual case, now she’s on her third tour,” Christine, 39, said of the “Les Misérables” tour that completes the trifecta of “Annie” and “Little House on the Prairie.” “My sister, [Patricia Fortino,] who also still lives in South Philly, will be traveling with her a lot. It’s usually a ques-tion of which family member can take a week off. Once I realized it was something she could really consider doing, I wouldn’t stop her doing what she loves.”
With the current production, Korbal couldn’t get the message about her new role out fast enough.
“I was down the Shore, and a few days before we went we knew I’d have an audi-tion and I’d have to leave a little bit early,” Korbal said. “There was a whole bunch of kids there and I auditioned. We started get-ting in to smaller groups as people left.
“About two weeks later, I was down-stairs watching TV with my sister and
my mom came down and said my agent Barry wanted to talk to me. And he told me I had got the role of little Cosette. I was very excited. My usual routine is to go get my phone and tell my family, but my phone was broken so I couldn’t do that. We called from mom’s phone and I talked to everyone.
“[I] told my Papi, he lives in South Philadelphia. He was very excited to see ‘Les Misérables’ because ‘Little House on the Prairie’ didn’t come any closer to Philadelphia than Atlanta and he’s never missed any of my shows and he’s really excited it’s opening in Philadelphia.”
Before the upcoming debut, Korbal had to navigate a busy production schedule that spanned the Christmas holiday. But the budding actress’ mother said last week that the juggling of her time is something the 10 year old is ready to do.
“Christmas Eve she [had] a matinee on the 24th and then I [got] her and we [went] straight down [to South Philly],” Christine said. “She [was] home Christ-mas day then they [had] two performanc-es the day after Christmas. We are lucky that we are local.” SPR

By R. Kurt OsenlundMovie Rev iewer
With their intimate scales, intense focus and unadulterated writ-ing and acting, movies based
on stage plays are often hot tickets to su-perior drama. For recent evidence, look to “Closer,” “Doubt,” “Frost/Nixon” and, now, “Rabbit Hole,” the graceful and near-faultless screen rendering of David Lind-say-Abaire’s 2006 Pultizer Prize-winner. Intuitively directed by well-chosen stage vet John Cameron Mitchell (“Hedwig and the Angry Inch”) and adapted by Lind-say-Abaire himself, the fi lm zeros in on a couple grieving the loss of their young son, and manages humor without sacrifi cing an ounce of wrenching heartbreak.
Nicole Kidman, who also produced, plays the wife and mother, Becca, whose method of coping involves ceaselessly trudging forward with tunnel vision. Never without an objective to distract from her paralyz-ing inner thoughts, she allows her selfi sh grief to infect nearly every situation she encounters. Kidman is excellent in the role, her best since ’02’s “The Hours.” She ap-proaches Becca without judgment, baring her fl aws while making her deeply sym-pathetic. Aaron Eckhart is also superb as Becca’s husband, Howie, who by contrast processes the tragedy by clinging to every memory — memories he believes Becca is trying to erase.
The two parents each have an affair, of sorts, to help them learn to live again — without their boy and with each other. At the support group that Becca can’t stand, Howie strikes up a relationship with a long-time attendee (Sandra Oh), while Becca, in the fi lm’s most achingly emotional scenes, befriends a teenager (Miles Teller) coping
with his own inner pain. The material takes care to let these connections reach richly satisfying ends, and offers some beautiful surprises along the way.
Mitchell, who also draws a fi ne support-ing turn from Dianne Wiest, displays the same humanistic strengths he put to such wonderful use in “Hedwig” and ’06’s “Shortbus.” He unfortunately lets slip two back-to-back scenes in which Kidman and Eckhart slightly overplay their characters’ shortcomings, but he mainly stages a be-haviorally insightful, surprisingly funny and wisely understated snapshot of life as it’s healing. Bravo.
Rabbit Hole PG-13Three-and-a-half reels out of fourNow playing at the Ritz 5
Catfi shPG-13Available Tuesday
Not nearly as clever or crucial as it thinks it is, but still worthy of your undivided at-tention, the secrecy-shrouded, possibly-bogus documentary “Catfi sh” plays on the fears, and explores the dark corners, of our constant electronic connection. A layered mystery, its surprises aren’t at all what you’re expecting, which is the very best thing to be said about it. SPR

‘Rabbit’ doesn’t miss a step
The column forthe new year
Much like the Christmas column, no self-respecting columnist can let his end-of-the-year column
pass without making all sorts of predic-tions for the coming year. The problem is, I am rarely correct.
You want an example of how wrong I can be? Last year, I predicted Michael Vick would become just a footnote in Eagles’ history. If I had been around 150 years ago, I would have predicted Lincoln would not have been re-elected and James Buchanan would be remembered as our greatest president. Sorry, no predictions.
Another option would be to recount all of the great times I have had on New Year’s Eve. Alas, those would be largely a fi gment of my imagination. In fact, I was without a date so often that the only rea-son my wife agreed to marry me was out of New Year’s Eve pity. One memorable year, I had a date and splurged on reserva-tions. My date canceled.
I then bought a ticket to a party at a pri-vate club on South Broad Street where a buddy promised to meet me and we would troll for women together. I showed up. He didn’t. Everyone at the party had a date. I went home and was in bed before mid-night. Needless to say, this column will not be about my great experiences greet-ing the new year.
I am a great believer in “the past is pro-logue to the future.” I will concentrate on the news stories that usher us out of ’10 as they may be key to what the new year holds.
Terrorists have apparently tired of screw-ing up air travel just as we spent a couple of trillion dollars on body scanners. It is being reported their new target will be salad bars and all-you-can-eat buffets. The terrorists plan to poison this most im-portant of America’s food source in malls everywhere. Apparently, the Chinese Buf-fet in my area will be serving fried ricin rather than rice and I would be especially careful eating the bacon bits at Salad Al-ley in the future. ...
We are cracking down on commercial fi shermen who are hacking shark’s fi ns, which are used to make a delicacy called shark fi n soup, and tossing the sharks back into the water. Campbell’s is complaining because it was planning to come out with a chunky version, with sea salt no less.
Frogs want to know why is it OK to take their legs and not OK to hack off the fi ns of a shark? Shark fi n soup is very costly because only Richard Dreyfus would vol-unteer to hack off the fi ns of a great white. Uncle Nunzi says it is the same reason that buffalo mozzarella is so expensive. No one wants to milk a buffalo. ...
Have you heard about the problems with the new Broadway show “Spider-Man: Turn on the Dark?” This is the most ex-pensive show ever to hit Broadway, pri-marily because of the medical premiums. At one time or another, the entire cast has been hospitalized. Do we really need an-other show or fi lm about a cartoon char-acter? Did Broadway run out of Charles Dickens’ novels to produce? ...
They have solved the problem of not paying Christmas bonuses to Wall Street executives by raising their base salaries by $200,000. I don’t want to say that Wall Street bribed Congress to allow this latest outrage, but I understand Sen. Mitch Mc-Connell (R-Ky.) sponsored the loophole and named it the Gordon Gecko Law. ...
I am so grateful that the court struck down the mandate in Obamacare that you have get health care coverage. Republi-cans had warned the mandate might lead to the government requiring Americans to eat it. Is that what they mean about Ameri-ca going green? I am OK with the broccoli stems, it’s just those little fl orets that won’t go down very easily. In fact, I’d rather ap-pear before a death panel than eat broc-coli. Uncle Nunzi tells me that in Italy the government already requires them to eat broccoli rabe, and no one is upset. ...
I am very interested in seeing what kind of sensitivity training the Pentagon gives the troops now that “don’t ask, don’t tell” has been repealed. I suggest regular showings of “La Cage aux Folles” at base theaters. Perhaps they can come up with something a little brighter than olive drab for the uniforms? ...
I’m wondering when Fox News will run a banner that reads: Socialist president cuts taxes for the wealthy? ...
Poor Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour. He is so easily misunderstood by the liber-al media in the North. He made an off-the cuff comment about how the White Citi-zens Council in Yazoo, where he was born and raised, kept the town folks from join-ing the KKK. Barbour may have a point because the very defi nition of liberalism in Yazoo is not dressing in a sheet and a pointy hat. I hear that, unlike the Klan, the Council didn’t burn a cross on your lawn unless they were making S’mores.
So is it time to sing “Auld Lang Syne” yet, and what the hell does “Auld Lang Syne” mean anyway? SPR

Happy New Yearto all of our
family & friends
This year’s Pirate Club theme is dedicated to Anthony Masino who marched in the Mummers Parade with various comic clubs for 60 years. In 1969, he marched in a brigade consist-ing of fathers and sons from 2nd St. with Bill Leiferst as the Captain, whose wife Eleanor made the famous “Baker Suits.” 20 years later in 1989, Froggy Carr’s Captain Mike Mackin asked Tony to once again wear the Baker Suit to celebrate their theme of “Mickey Mouse’s 60th Birthday,” for which they won first prize for Comic Brigade. Tony marched as the baker with his sons and The Pirates until a few years ago. After Tony’s passing, The Pirates changed their theme and their suits in order to honor his legacy.
Cara Liom is proud to bring you our 2011 theme
“Curse of the Wench Doctors.” Thanks to all our
members for making this our strongest year. We
would also like to wish everyone a safe and Happy
New Year. And a special Thanks to Barb, Sal Sal, and
Becky for the great work they do for us.
The Wench Association
wishes everyone a Healthy, Happy and Prosperous
New Year. Best Wishes from
Bryson, Cara Liom, Froggy CarrO’Malley, Oregon, Pirates,
Riverfront, Saints

Karen’s Impossible Cream Cheese PieI N G R E D I E N T S : 4 eggs, beaten1/2 stick of butter1/2 cup of Bisquick2 cups of milk3/4 cup of sugar1 teaspoon of pure vanilla8 ounces of cream cheese1 can of course coconut
DI R E C T I O N S : Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.Grease a 10-inch pie plate with Crisco.Blend all of the ingredients except for
the coconut in the blender on high for one minute. Add the coconut and mix. Pour the mixture into the pie plate and cook for 55 minutes.
Lately, it has been so cold outside that leaving the comforts of home sounds like a very bad idea. Who wants to deal with all of the snow and 40-mile-per-hour wind gusts? The key to mak-
ing the great indoors an enjoyable experince is stocking the pantry and fridge up with food. Karen Griffi th’s Impossible Cream Cheese Pie, for instance, could easily last a few days — as long as you don’t invite over too much company.
The resident of Front and Miffl in streets adds a little coconut to her recipe. After a 55-minute stay in the oven, the slicing can begin. Just remember to leave some leftovers. SPR

While leafi ng through the “2011 Zagat Guide,” I realized there’s been a boom in the number of
restaurants which have opened in the Fair-mount neighborhood. Visitors to the Art Museum or Academy of Natural Sciences can walk across the parkway and discover all kinds of cuisines.
Doma is one of the area’s newest addi-tions. It is Japanese/Korean and I looked forward to a hearty lunch on a blustery day with my friend Jim.
The restaurant is BYOB. I rarely have a glass of wine or beer during the day, but Jim and I wanted to toast the upcoming New Year. I brought a bottle of Sauvi-gnon Blanc from South Africa. I knew its crisp, grassy almost grapefruit-like fl avors would marry well with the Asian fare.
The interior is bright and modern. A banquette runs the length of one wall and there’s a small sushi bar as well. Our server brought an ice bucket for the wine. Jim and I took a sip and toasted to good health.
Lunch began with a large, square white bowl fi lled with salted edamame in their pods ($4). The portion could’ve easily served four people. We munched happily away as we tried to decide which dishes we wanted to sample. Everything sounded so good.
Jim has a sense of adventure when it comes to trying new foods. He tasted his fi rst Moroccan dishes with me. On anoth-er occasion, he admitted he really enjoyed our Indian meal in October.
“I like sushi,” he said. “Although I like shrimp, I prefer some beef.”
With this in mind, we began lunch with kalbi skewers ($7), which consisted of two skewers of marinated chargrilled Korean beef short ribs and scallions. The meat was fi lled with a smoky fl avor and was so tender that it was easy for me to simply pull it from its stick and enjoy with chop-sticks. Beef and scallion makes for a tasty marriage in all Asian cuisines and this dish did not disappoint. A small bundle of frisée sat in the middle of the plate.
Although I wanted to try the shrimp shu-mai, Jim preferred the pork. Wasabi pork shumai ($6) were four plump dumplings fi lled with seasoned pork. The wrappers were homemade and light. A dab of Asian mustard, which looked like and had the consistency of peanut butter was so deli-cious, I continued to eat it plain with the tip of my chop stick. Some julienned pickled turnip and a ramekin of ginger/soy vinai-grette beautifully enhanced the dumplings.
Jim and I decided on a hot roll and sushi. “Have you ever tried eel?” I asked. “No, but I am willing to give it a try,” Jim
said.Dragon roll ($12) was fashioned from
top-quality eel, cool cucumber and sliced avocado wrapped in a crunchy tempura and topped with a slightly sweet tobiko glaze. I hesitated as I watched Jim pop a piece into his mouth.
“This is really good,” he said as his blue eyes lit up.
“Next time, we will try it raw,” I said.
This roll was perfectly prepared. The combination of fl avors, colors and tex-tures was on the mark. The six-roll por-tion was generous as well.
Tuna is a favorite so we tried something new. The sushi chefs at Doma make a crunchy spicy tuna roll ($6.50) which was a tasty surprise. Although wrapped in sushi rice, the addition of panko bread crumbs was added for the crunch and the tuna packed a bit of a kick. We dipped the roll into soy sauce and simply let the fl avors come to life in our mouths. Sliced ginger and wasabi was obviously included, but I preferred the mustard. So did Jim who ad-mitted he is not too fond of wasabi.
Service was excellent. Our waiter took fi ne care of us and Doma’s other patrons. He fi lled our water glasses, served and
cleared with ease and paced our meal to a T. We were never rushed.
Doma is a marvelous addition to the Fairmount neighborhood. Our waiter told us the restaurant delivers within a four-block radius.

By Phyllis Stein-NovackFood Columnist
“T he Nutcracker” is America’s most beloved ballet. Each year during the holiday sea-son, dance companies from
coast-to-coast present this delicious con-fection. It also is performed in London, Paris, Berlin and Moscow.
I do not know how many times I have savored the Pennsylvania Ballet’s produc-tion of George Balanchine’s classic story. As a child, I longed to be a ballerina. My feet still bear the brunt of pointe shoes. In 1999, Jeffrey Gribler, Pennsylvania Bal-let’s ballet master, granted me my wish and let me perform. He created the role of the governess just for me.
I cannot describe the thrill of donning a long Victorian costume and making my entrance onto the stage at The Academy of Music. Memories are fl ooding back. I am getting goose bumps as I write this.
“The Nutcracker,” which runs through tomorrow, is a two-act ballet. It is fi lled with food and drink. The fi rst act is the party scene where the adults are drinking and toasting. Herr Drosselmeyer cracks walnuts using the nutcracker doll and tosses them to the excited children. In Act II, The Sugar Plum Fairy leads us to the Land of the Sweets. A sugar plum is a small confection, often consisting of fruit such as a candied cherry or dried apricot, surrounded by fondant.
The Sugar Plum Fairy summons the dancers who represent hot chocolate, cof-fee, tea, candy canes, marzipan shepherd-esses and Mother Ginger and her gaggle of children who emerge from her big hoop
skirt. The role is played by a tall man.I have been writing about Pennsylva-
nia Ballet for many years. At one of this year’s matinee performance I was treated to a rare delight. William DeGregory, who danced with the company for many years before retiring from the stage and is married to ballet mistress Tamara Hadley, performed Herr Drosselmeyer with poise and expressive hands. His acting was less sinister than others who have acted the role before him.
The real delight was watching Ian Hussey, who was recently promoted to soloist with the company. I remember him as a boy dancing the role of the young prince. Now he is the Cavalier, the Sugar Plum Fairy’s partner. He has grown and matured into an accomplished dancer and will continue to enthrall us in the years to come.
Enjoy these recipes I associated with “The Nutcracker.” They are from “Hot Toddies” by Christopher B. O’Hara.
■ Mulled Wine ■
Ingredients:2 750-mL bottles of full-bodied dry red
wine1 cup of packed brown sugar6 ounces of orange juice, no pulp2 teaspoons of ground nutmeg2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon1 teaspoon of ground cloves12 whole cloves10 cardamom seeds
Directions:In a large saucepan, warm the wine over
medium heat until steam begins to rise
from the surface, about seven minutes. Add the remaining ingredients. Reduce to the lowest possible heat and, stirring fre-quently, keep the mixture warm for about 20 minutes, or until the sugar is com-pletely melted and the spices have fully integrated. Do not let the mixture boil — this will give the juice a “cooked” fl avor. Strain and serve immediately.
Serves ten.
Note: Refrigerate the mulled wine for 24 hours to really let the fl avors come together. Before serving, warm it on the stove for about 10 minutes.
■ Candy Cane Cocoa ■
Ingredients:3/4 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder1/2 cup of sugar1-1/2 teaspoons of pure vanilla extractPinch of salt3-1/2 cups whole milk1/2 cup of heavy cream4 ounces of créme de menthe4 candy canes1 cup of heavy cream, chilled4 candy canes, for garnish
Directions:To make the cocoa, combine 1/2 cup of
water with the cocoa powder, sugar, va-nilla and salt in a heavy saucepan. Place it over low heat. Whisking frequently, cook until the mixture is smooth. In a separate pot, combine the milk and cream and heat until just boiling. Gradually whisk the hot milk into the chocolate paste and blend completely. Keep warm.
To make the peppermint whip cream,
place the candy canes into a doubled plastic bag and pound with a rolling pin until fi nely pulverized. In a medium bowl, whip the cream to soft peaks, then fold in the peppermint pieces.
To serve, pour an ounce of créme de menthe into a mug and top off with the cocoa. Stir then garnish with the pepper-mint whipped cream and a candy cane stirrer.
Serves four.
■ Orange Spiced Tea ■
Ingredients:1 orange, sliced in half5 whole clovesPeel of half a lemon2 cinnamon sticks4 tea bags of black tea4 teaspoons sugar
Directions:Stud one half of the orange with the
cloves and set the other half aside for later. Place the studded orange half in a square of cheesecloth along with the lemon peel and cinnamon sticks, and tie with kitchen string. Place the tea bags and spice sachet into a warmed teapot.
In a separate pot, bring three cups of water to a boil, pour into teapot and al-low to steep for at least three minutes. Re-move the tea bags and sachet and pour the tea into warm mugs with one teaspoon of sugar stirred into each.
Serve with ginger snaps.Serves four. SPR

Lonely is the home without you.
Life to us is not the same;
All the world would be like heaven,
If we could have you back again.
A light is from our household gone,
A voice we loved is still,
A place is vacant in our borne,
That never can be filled.
May the God of Love and Mercy,
Care our loved one who is gone,
And bless with consolation,
those left to carry on.
The happy hours we once enjoyed,
How sweet their memory still,
But death has left a vacant place,
This world can never fill.
How dearly we loved you,
And prayed you might live,
But Jesus Just beckoned,
And we had to give.
God gave us strength to bear it,
And courage to fight the blow,
What it has meant to lose you,
God alone will ever know.

I think of all those days gone by, much happier than today, for a moment sadness lifts, and yet my pain is here to stay.
We honor you as you look down from heaven far above, thoughts of you fill our hearts with undying love.
Forever our love, Your son Philip, daughter Susan,
grandchildren Joseph, Frankie & Philip

A star-studded yearBy Alvaro Balderas
Review Intern
The athletic achievements of 2010 were hard to forget. The Neumann-Goretti boys’ basketball team made
program and school history by bringing home its fi rst-ever PIAA championship. Other hoopsters with local ties were shin-ning in the national spotlight when the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament came around in March. Two elevated their games by practicing with the NBA elite prior to the Basketball World Champion-ships.
There were plenty of farewells including Neumann- Goretti girls’ basketball coach Chip Reitano and Bok’s football and base-ball coach Tom DeFelice.
Of course we can’t forget NCAA men’s basketball legend Jim Phelan coming back home to be inducted into the Philadelphia Sports Hall of Fame.
These are just some of the highlights. Here’s a look back at ‘10:
JanuaryThe Anderson Monarchs, based out of
18th and Fitzwater streets, 12-and-under girls’ soccer team opened the year in Or-
lando, Fla., and made their national tournament debut.
Rogers “The Tiger” Mtag-wa, from the 1800 block of
South Taylor Street, re-turned to the Mecca of
Boxing for a shot at the WBA feather-
weight champion-
ship. But the 30-year-old lost via technical knockout to undefeated Cuban Yuriorkis Gamboa.
On the hardwood, Neumann-Goretti senior Michaila Hatty, of Front of Rose-berry streets, announced that she would be continuing her college career at Maryland-based Washington College.
February
Packer Park native Kyle Eckel laced up his cleats for the eventual Super Bowl champions New Orleans Saints, who de-feated the Indianapolis Colts, 31-17.
Local ballers garnered recognition with their respective top-25 squads just as March Madness approached. Included in the mix were Prep Charter grads Marcus and Markieff Morris at the University of Kansas, as well as Syracuse University’s Rick Jackson and Scoop Jardine hailing from Neumann-Goretti.
MarchIn high school basketball the Neumann-
Goretti boys’ squad won its second-straight Catholic League crown by defeating the defending state champions Archbishop Carroll, 75-59. The senior-laden squad nabbed its fourth title in six years, and sixth overall in coach Carl Arrigale’s 11-year tenure at 10th and Moore streets.
While many of the area high school girls’ basketball teams had already turned in their uniforms, the Prep Charter Lady Huskies were hard at work making fi nal preparations for their PIAA Class AAA opening-round clash against Malvern-
based Villa Maria Academy. Athletes with local ties entered this year’s
NCAA Tournament with expectations of being the last team standing in Indianapo-lis. The Morris twins went into the tourney ranked as the Midwest Region’s No. 1 seed with the Kansas Jayhawks. Neumann-Gore-tti grads Rick Jackson and Scoop Jardine and their Syracuse Orange earned a similar distinction as the West Region’s No. 1 seed.
The Neumann-Goretti boys’ basket-ball team received a plethora of attention throughout the season as a top-10 team in several national polls. It all culminated with a program-fi rst PIAA Class AAA championship. The Saints’ latest crown-ing moment came in the form of a 65-63 victory over Chartiers Valley.
AprilChip Reitano knew after his fi rst prac-
tice as the Neumann-Goretti girls basket-ball coach back in 2000 that it was the start of something special. A decade later, he stepped down 125 career wins and six-straight Catholic League playoff appear-ances — both of which are all-time marks for the program.
After spending the past decade together, Neumann-Goretti seniors Al Baur, Mark Donato and Michael Riverso and their coach Lou Spadaccini were preparing to close out their journey with the perfect ending — a state championship.
Area youngsters traded passes, jump shots and lay-ups with players from Di-vision I schools at Neumann-Goretti High School. The Philly Girls Got Game hosted its debut event with about 150 girls representing South Philadelphia middle
State titles and No. 1 seeds in the Big Dance only begin to tellthe story of a memorable year of local sports.

Neumann-Goretti seniors Tony Chen-nault, center, and Daniel Stewart won their second-straight Catholic League title by thumping Arch-bishop Carroll, 75-59, at The Pal-estra. The Saints also claimed City and State titles.

schools. The youngsters, ranging in age from 8 to 13, received tips from players and coaches of the “Philly 6.”
MayThe past and present united to celebrate
Neumann-Goretti’s 1985 and ’10 boys’ basketball championship teams at its annual athletic banquet. The celebration highlight-ed the 1985 boys’ Catholic League Cham-pionship squad and its accomplished breth-ren from last season’s Catholic League, City and State championship team.
Prep Charter Huskies’ All-Public stand-outs LaShay Banks and Sydney Mallory made school history by signing National Letters of Intent for the fall. Banks — the school’s fi rst female athlete to ink a Divi-sion I scholarship — selected the Univer-sity of Cincinnati while Mallory picked Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania.
JuneGirard Academic Music Program de-
fended its Class A crown thanks to a no-hit effort from its junior ace Dom Raia. The 15 diamond dwellers secured a sixth-straight District 12 Class A championship with a 3-2 victory over Masterman.
Neumann-Goretti junior Joseph DiGia-como competed in the Pennsylvania Inter-scholastic Athletic Association Track and Field Championships. Statewide, DiGia-como was ranked among the top-20 in the 800-meters.
Bryan Hughes, a self-proclaimed tennis fanatic, continued to show his love for his community, running Jedi Tennis LLC, a 2-year-old nonprofi t focusing on growth and development through urban tennis.
Neumann-Goretti pitcher Jillian Murray capped her four-year run with a program-fi rst playoff berth. Adding four All-Cath-olic nods, including a First Team spot as
a junior, the resident of the 2800 block of South Sydenham Street called her high school career a success.
JulyEight local Philadelphia Catholic and
Philadelphia Public League all-stars show-cased their skills in the Carpenter Cup. For Neumann-Goretti seniors Al Baur, Michael Riverso and Mark Donato, along with junior Mike Zolk and sophomore Joe Gorman it provided one last chance to play together as high-schoolers. Like the previ-ous three Carpenter Cup meetings against the Public League, the Catholic League was again victorious, 11-2.
Jon McAllister’s days with the Philadel-phia Senators National baseball team might have come to an end, but the 18-year-old center fi elder and resident of the 1800 block of Sigel Street, signed a National Let-ter of Intent with University of Maryland’s baseball team. As Chestnut Hill Academy’s
leadoff hitter, he batted .473, with 44 hits in 93 at-bats in his last season.
Five members from the two South Phila-delphia National Junior Tennis League camps traveled to the East Falls-based Arthur Ashe Youth Tennis and Education Center to learn some valuable pointers from superstar Venus Williams. Jeremy Emami, Chazz Franchinie, Amira Davis, David Az-volinsky and Joe Franchinie spent about 30 minutes trading groundstrokes with the seven-time Grand Slam fi nal winner.
Syracuse junior Antonio “Scoop” Jar-dine from the 1800 block of South Taylor Street and Marcus Morris partnered with 18 college standouts to form the 2010 USA Basketball Men’s Select team. The group spent a week engaging in valuable training sessions with the USA Basketball Men’s National team, which fi ne tuned for the up-coming World Championships in Turkey.
No stranger to the neighborhood, Jesse Biddle, the Phillies’ fi rst-round draft pick,
Jon McAllister devastated Inter-Ac opponents in his four years at Chestnut Hill Academy. In April, he set his sights on Atlantic Coast Conference opponents, signing a National Letter of Intent to play for the University of Maryland.
Posting a 39-6 record, the Delaware Valley Senators won two prestigious tournaments and finished as the runners-up in their 12-team league. Here, eight of the team’s 12 sluggers flash their megawatt smiles.
A giant among college basketball coaches, Jim Phelan won 830 games at Maryland’s Mount St. Mary’s. He returned to Philadelphia in November for enshrinement into the Philadelphia Sports Hall of Fame’s seventh class.
The Anderson Monarchs Girls Soccer Club used their talent to take them to Orlando, Fla., for a national competition. An African-American female travel team, the squad sent six girls to compete against teams from Colorado and North Carolina.
Girard Academic Music Program righthander Dom Raia led his Pioneers to their sixth-straight District 12 Class A crown by throwing a no-hitter against Masterman. He finished with eight strikeouts in the victory and added a single to rally the team from a 2-0 deficit.
Prep Charter players LaShay Banks, left, and Sydney Mallory signed National Letters of Intent to play college basketball. Banks became the first female Huskie to sign with a Division I school. She picked Cincinnati while Mallory selected Bloomsburg.

had fans wondering of how many more parades he will bring to the area.
August Members of the South Philadelphia Soccer
Club helped three of their four teams capture medals at the Keystone Summer Games.
Neumann-Goretti second baseman Mike Zolk committed to the University of North Carolina.
Hundreds at FDR Park, Broad Street and Pattision Avenue, recaptured the joys of their athletic childhoods by participat-ing in Play Day — a partnership between SportsRadio 610 WIP and the Department of Parks and Recreation.
The local boys of Delaware Valley Sena-tors based at 18th and Johnston fi nished their fi rst year of competitive ball with two tournament titles.
SeptemberA year removed from its fi rst-ever play-
off game, the girls’ soccer team at Neu-mann-Goretti started its quest for contin-ued good fortune, with hopes of building on the program’s initial playoff splash. With most of his core players returning, coach Jim McBride was looking to build on last season’s six victories.
Central High School sophomore and local resident DreShaun Jarmon deliv-ered big, defeating three tennis legends in a target-hitting competition at the Billie Jean National Tennis Center in Flushing Meadows, N.Y.
This year, success clung to the Delaware Valley 12-and-under Senators. Over a sev-en-month span, the youngsters collected 51 wins in 63 games, competed against teams from eight states and collected four tourna-ment titles. Their journey concluded with an appearance at a prestigious invitational tournament and a trip to the National Base-ball Hall of Fame, in Cooperstown, N.Y.
Mark Hatty, an ’07 Neumann-Goretti grad inherited the starting quarterback role for the Delaware Valley College Ag-gies and led his squad to victories in two of its fi rst three games.
Hundreds of local Catholic school chil-dren enjoyed more than two dozen sports and nearly a dozen fi tness-related chal-lenges at the Nintendo Wii Fitness Lab. Neumann-Goretti became the fi rst insti-tution in the fi ve-county Archdiocese of Philadelphia to integrate simulated ath-letic action into its curriculum.
OctoberThree years removed from being timid
prey for their Public League foes, the Fur-ness Falcons football team reversed their fortunes by pouncing on the Mastbaum Panthers, 21-0, which was the team’s sec-ond-straight shutout victory.
Neumann-Goretti senior Lamin Fulton
made a verbal commitment to play basket-ball at St. Peter’s College. As a junior, he helped his Saints compile a 30-1 record, which was highlighted by State, Catholic League and City titles.
The Bok Wildcats closed out the month on a high note by winning the Public League Class AA championship game over Imhotep Charter, 41-0. Furness, meanwhile, opened the Class AAAA playoffs with a 35-0 loss to Frankford.
NovemberIga Kopiec, a John W. Hallahan Catholic
Girls’ High School junior, moved to South Philadelphia from Krakow, Poland in Au-gust. She adjusted to her new culture by qualifying for the PIAA AAA Girls’ Cross-Country Championships in Hershey.
Jim Phelan proved Philadelphia’s nick-name, “The City That Loves You Back,” has no statute of limitations when he returned home for enshrinement into the Philadel-phia Sports Hall of Fame’s seventh class.
Local ballers prepared to make some noise in their upcoming college basketball season, including 12 from Ss. Neumann-Goretti, six from Prep Charter, three from GAMP, two from South Philly High and one for Center City’s Roman Catholic High School.
Neumann-Goretti and Southern high schools looked beyond their losing sea-sons to score a Thanksgiving triumph in the 76th annual Turkey Bowl. The Saints once again prevailed, 6-0.
December
After 42 years at a Passyunk Square school, renowned teacher and coach Tom DeFelice announced the current school year would be his last. The 64-year-old football coach at Bok amassed 129 victo-ries, including 43 straight Public League regular season triumphs over 18 seasons.
World-class athlete Ryan Whiting dem-onstrated his abilities to local student-ath-letes from Bok and Neumann-Goretti. The Harrisburg native who dominated discus and shot put competitions during his dec-orated career at Arizona State University talked about his desire throw the shot put in the next Olympic Games.
Penn Charter junior and Packer Park res-ident Kenny Koplove accepted an athletic scholarship to Duke University hoping to enhance his skills and extend his family’s diamond legacy.
Nigeria’s Omowumi Rafi u came to the United States in July to become a student at Neumann-Goretti and the small for-ward for the girls’ varsity basketball team. With dreams of a Catholic League cham-pionship, the baller averaged more than 11 points through her fi rst six contests. SPR
