An East Passyunk Crossing school is seeking to encourage

businesses to invest in the future of Catholic institutions.

By Joseph MyersReview Staff Writer

With 12 years of parochial school-ing having aided his character’s formation, John Murawski

undoubtedly cherishes Catholic educa-tion. Through an additional four years as president of Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., the Pennsport fi gure has ventured to keep South Philly’s neighborhoods teeming with youths eager to unite intellectual pursuits and religious beliefs.

He joined equally committed commu-nity leaders Nov. 1 at Fishtown’s Sugar-House Casino to discuss the Opportunity Scholarship Tax Credit program, through

Enterprising endeavors

By Joseph MyersReview Staff Writer

ilbert O’Hare woke Tuesday with as much conviction as he could ever recall having summoned. Venturing early that afternoon to the South Philadelphia Branch, 1700 S. Broad St., he needed to wait only a few seconds be-fore he could draw a voting machine’s blue curtains and inspect the collection of names gunning for various of-fi ces, including the nation’s president. He required even

less time to make his selections, hoping enough national deciders will share his reasoning.

“We must have Mitt Romney in the White House,” the resident of the 1800 block of South 16th Street said of the former gov-ernor of Massachusetts and the Republican Party’s presidential

nominee. “I cannot bear another four years of ineptitude and mis-guided thinking.”

In the 57th quadrennial presidential election, Romney ended up falling to incumbent Demo-cratic President Barack Obama for the right to guide the country as its top elected fi gure. Over what may be the most polarizing campaign cycle, Pennsylvania mor-phed from a presumed Obama backer

To the Editor:If ever there was a time to place all

electrical, telephone and cable wires underground in water-resistant con-duits, now is that time. With all of the profi ts the electrical and other com-panies that use wires to deliver their product are realizing, they have the audacity and gall to claim it would be too expensive to do so. What could possibly be more expensive than the staggering and killing costs endured by homeowners, big and small busi-nesses and entire cities because of falling trees, tripping all of the wiring that delivers life-soaring electricity that provides for life-sustaining heat, light and the preserving of our food?

There is naturally nothing we can do about hurricanes, cyclones, tornadoes or other calamities, but we can halt most of the wasteful devastation in-curred by the loss of power that should not have to be in the fi rst place. The time couldn’t be more ripe for the fi l-ing of lawsuits against these crazy rich companies to make them see the light (pun intended). How much more pain and devastation are we going to allow them to put us through before they do what they know has to be done? The situation also is raising the costs for insurance companies and creating in-creased premiums for all of us.

Why doesn’t the government and most of the crafty politicians do what they were elected to do instead of pro-tecting those donor-giving leeches? The rich are protecting and looking out for the rich. Want some action, do you? A clean sweep is necessitated. Haven’t you still had enough? Please wake up from your lethargic coma, because if you don’t act, shame.

Frank Cavallero South Philadelphia

Lacking in entertainmentTo the Editor:

So here we are at the end of the election season and the beginning of a new one. Almost $1 billion was spent to get a job that pays a little more than $400,00 per year. One bil-lion dollars equals 20,000 year-round jobs paying $ 50,000 each.

It was a great election year for the media, where special interest groups spent an obscene amount of money in their attempt to insure victory.

Perhaps next time around Mark Bur-nett (producer of "Survivor," "Celeb-rity Apprentice," etc) could stage the

whole thing like an episode of "Survi-vor: Survivor - White House 2016."

Special interests could buy up the commercial time touting their points of view, viewers at home could vote by phone, and best of all, we would get to watch the contestants vote each other off. Fact checkers would get a crack at the ads, and we might actu-ally get questions answered.

What comes to mind is a question posed during one of the debates where both candidates were asked if they could insure that any new oil found in the United States would stay in the United States. The president does not control the commodity market, and commodities typically get sold to the highest bidder. That question never really got answered.

But what island will the contestants be on? Can’t be Manhattan or Nan-tucket. Perhaps San Simeon William Randolph Hearst’s retreat from the world. Or perhaps Vieques, that tiny paradise, which is part of the United States Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. We also could vote to allow Puerto Rico to become the 51st state.

My point is that if we are going to have to endure these long, drawn out battles, they should at the very least be entertaining.

Beware of mold To the Editor:

The American Lung Association of the Mid-Atlantic sends our thoughts out to all of those affected by Hur-ricane Sandy. With the passing of the hurricane, people are well aware of the damage a storm like this can have on their homes and neighborhoods, but it’s also important to understand the harm a hurricane can do to a person’s health.

Damp basements and leaking roofs give mold a good chance to grow. Exposure to mold can trigger aller-gic reactions and asthma symptoms in people who are allergic to mold. Anyone, with or without allergies, may experience irritation of the eyes, skin, nose, throat and lungs when ex-posed to airborne mold particles.

Breathing it in is a hazard and could affect you and your family’s lung health. Call a professional to help clean any mold growth that covers more than 10 square feet.

Visit lung.org or the Hurricane and Flooding Resources page on our website.

Gunman locatedAn alleged West Passyunk shooter who fi red bullets

at a man in Point Breeze has been apprehended.By Amanda L. SnyderReview Managing Ed itor

Days after police released a video of a Point Breeze shooting and an im-age of its suspect, South Detective

Division, 2301 S. 24th St., received a tip on the shooter’s West Philly whereabouts.

Police identifi ed Kamil Singleton, 23, of the 1900 block of South 18th Street, as the alleged shooter due to previous encounters he had with police, ac-cording to the Police Public Affairs Unit.

He was arrested at 3:30 p.m. Oct. 30 on the 1100 block of North 66th Street, police said, and charged with two counts of ag-gravated assault, conspiracy of aggravated assault, simple assault, recklessly endan-gering another person; a count of criminal mischief and possession of an instrument of crime; and fi rearm violations, accord-ing to court records. He had not posted his $350,000 bail as of press time.

Singleton approached a 25-year-old, who was sitting on his stoop on the 1700 block of Manton Street at 6:15 p.m. Aug. 31, and fi red multiple shots, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detectives said at the time of the shooting. The gunfi re grazed the 25-year-old’s lower lip as he jumped off of the steps, dropped his cell phone and fl ed toward 17th Street.

Three bullets also struck the rear passen-ger window of a 2003 Ford Focus belong-ing to a 19-year-old woman, who crouched down in the driver’s seat as the bullets fl ew, Tolliver said. She was unscathed.

Teen tussleAbout a dozen adolescents followed a girl

from a Grays Ferry rec site and jumped her Monday night.

The 13-year-old was at Vare Recreation Center, 2600 Morris St., with two other friends, but left by herself at 7:45 p.m., Detective Danielle Tolliver of South De-tective Division said. When she realized she was being trailed, she called her moth-er on her cell, but a 12-year-old, of the 1600 block of South 21st Street, tapped her on the shoulder and punched her in the face as she turned around.

The older girl punched back and a fi ght broke out with the group teaming up against the victim by punching, kicking and stomp-

ing her, Tolliver said. She blacked out tem-porarily and once the beating concluding fl ed to a friend’s house to call police.

Police stopped some girls on the 2300 block of Morris Street where the victim identifi ed her attacker and the 14-year-old who captured the beating on her cell, which police confi scated, Tolliver said.

The victim suffered a small puncture wound to her upper lip but did not seek medical treatment, Tolliver said.

The offender was charged with aggra-vated and simple assaults, harassment and recklessly endangering another person.

Calling two robberies Two Metro PCS stores — one in

Passyunk Square and one in Girard Estate — were robbed Monday although police have not indicated that they are related.

At 10:45 a.m. a man armed with a black revolver entered Metro PCS, 1050 E. Passyunk Ave., jumped the counter and demanded the 20-year-old employee open the register, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The worker obliged, and the offender swiped $500 be-fore fl eeing on foot.

The thief was described as black with a dark complexion, 5-foot-7; having a medium build; and wearing a black hoodie, blue scarf, black Dickies and black and red gloves.

About fi ve hours later, two men held up Metro PCS, 2121 Oregon Ave., Tolliver said. The duo walked behind the counter, and the armed robber asked where to fi nd the cash. A 22-year-old worker opened the register and the other offender grabbed $3,000 as the gun-wielding man snatched a $499 Samsung Galaxy SIII and asked if there was more money. When told “no,” the pair fl ed westbound on Oregon.

The armed offender was described as black with a medium complexion, age 18, 5-foot-10, thin; having brown eyes; and wearing a royal blue Hollister hoodie, black sweatpants, black bandana over his face and black and red gloves. His accomplice was described as black with a light complexion, 5-foot-10, thin; having brown eyes; wearing a gray hoodie, blue jeans, a black bandana over his face, black gloves and a backpack.

C o u r t R e p o r t

By Amanda L. SnyderReview Managing Ed itor

Ameya Spratley did not pursue as-sault charges against her boyfriend, Keith Moore, which stemmed

from a May 2009 incident, according to court records, at which time she would have been about two months pregnant. Moore, 23, was released from jail when the case was dismissed in Novem-ber of that year, but two months later, the mother of his child was dead.

A jury convicted Moore, now 26, of mur-der, possession of an instrument of crime and abuse of a corpse Oct. 3, according to court records. He will spend the rest of his life at Camp Hill’s state prison.

Spratley, 28, of the 900 block of South 16th Street, went to her second-fl oor South of South apartment with the couple’s about 3-week-old son Jan. 11, ’10 to break up with Moore and inform him he had to move out of her apartment, Assistant Dis-trict Attorney Deborah Nixon said.

“The sad thing about it was she had a heart,” Nixon said. “She was the kind of woman that she didn’t want to hurt him. She just wanted to get away with her dig-nity and raise her child.”

She had been living with family mem-bers because of fear upon his release, Nix-on said. She told relatives where she was going and had planned to meet up with friends afterward. When no one had heard from her, friends and relatives questioned Moore, who had unexplained scratches on his neck. They continued to stake out the apartment and when Moore left to go to the store, they took his keys and entered the residence.

“They found the grizzly discovery of her body inside the closet partially clad and decomposing in the same room where the crib was,” Nixon said.

Police were called to the scene at 6:50 p.m. Jan. 12, ’10 and pronounced her dead 12 minutes later, police said.

Spratley’s throat was slit and she was orally raped and strangled at about 2 p.m. the previous day, but fought back, result-ing in Moore’s scrapes, Nixon said. He also repeatedly stabbed her in the torso while she was unconscious.

Their son and her two other children,

which are not Moore’s, are being cared for by relatives, Nixon said.

DNA case breakerTramine Garvin was serving time for

two separate November 2009 incidents in-volving an aggravated assault and fi rearm violations in West and Southwest Philly, respectively, according to court records. Upon his release, authorities conducted a DNA swap, which was a newer state pro-tocol, that came back a match to the DNA on a glove found at a Grays Ferry crime scene, Assistant District Attorney Joanne Pescatore said.

That evidence was all authorities needed to reopen a Southwest Philly teen’s ho-micide case and charge Garvin with the 15-year-old’s death June 9, ’11.

Garvin, now 31, pled guilty to third-degree murder, conspiracy of murder and possession of an instrument of a crime Oct. 4 and will serve 35 to 70 years at Lau-rel Highlands state prison in Somerset, ac-cording to court records.

The victim, Quintin Clarke “punked out on a fi ght with some kids on his block,” Pescatore said of the motive of the alterca-tion on the 2200 block of South Bonnaffon Street that Clarke walked away from.

His backing down made the block look bad, according to investigators, so, despite their age difference, Garvin, then 26, who also hung out on that street, participated in Clarke’s gruesome slaying.

“They slashed his throat to the point where his head was practically decapi-tated and he had at least eight or nine stab wounds,” Pescatore said adding Clarke’s face was bashed in, and he had drag marks on his body.

Garvin, who was arrested almost four years after authorities located the victim’s body on a loading dock on the 1200 block of South Napa Street naked and wrapped in plastic Nov. 26, ’07, identifi ed two oth-ers who he claimed assisted him. Howev-er, there was no other evidence indicating their involvement and his word was not enough to prosecute them, Pescatore said.

But Garvin did not seem to have any guilt at trial, Pescatore said.

“Not really what I would consider re-morse,” she said of his statement to the court. “He just admitted he did it.”

which businesses can sustain Catholic schools and enable public institution pu-pils to ponder new sites.

“People often wonder what becomes of their taxes,” the resident of the 100 block of McKean Street said Friday at his East Passyunk Crossing facility. “This will give business owners a direct say in where their money goes.”

The state legislature created the initia-tive in August, alloting $50 million to as-sist learners at low-performing locations, which offi cials defi ne as spots ranking in the bottom 15 percent of elementary and secondary public sites based on math and reading scores on the Pennsylvania System of School Assessment. The com-monwealth lists 11 South Philly schools among the struggling venues, so Mu-rawski is striving to add students to Neu-mann-Goretti while his peers are hoping to land enrollees for the vicinity’s six pa-rochial elementary institutions.

“We do not suffer from a lack of inter-est,” Murawski said of courting clans. “The roughest part is the disconnect that occurs when tuition comes up.”

The 34-year-old graduated from St. John Neumann High School, formerly 2600 Moore St., which merged with St. Maria Goretti High School in 2004. Administra-tors and teachers welcomed 1,250 learn-ers that year, but enrollment has dipped to 560, with tuition hitting $6,300 as a result of the exodus. Though not in danger of closing, his site could use more bodies to fend off more increases, so he has spent the last two months lauding the tax credit program, which allows businesses to redi-rect up to $400,000 in state taxes to Busi-ness Leadership Organized for Catholic Schools. Once endowed with the funds, the 32-year-old Radnor-based company can provide scholarships to youngsters who wish to acquire a Catholic education yet who belong to families who might fi nd the price tags too daunting. Endowments could also go to parochial elementary stu-dents whose guardians fear costs will lead them to remove their children from the Archdiocesan system.

In addition to Neumann-Goretti’s hefty expense, households seeking elementary instruction must pay an average of $2,581 for one child, Kenneth Gavin, the Archdi-ocese of Philadelphia’s associate director of communications, said. Through Busi-ness Leadership Organized for Catholic Schools, which sent director of develop-ment Bill O’Brien to last week’s event, the tax credit program could, according to a release, “fi ll thousands of high qual-ity open seats in our Catholic schools right now” by granting elementary and high

schools students up to $8,500 in tuition as-sistance and special education learners up to $15,000 in aid.

“There is a sense of urgency because so many establishments will be looking to help schools,” Murawski, who has made outreach to more than 100 businesses, said. “Therefore, it will literally pay to be among the fi rst to participate.”

THE ADMINISTRATOR, WHOSE school has received $30,000 annually from Busi-ness Leadership Organized for Catholic Schools, is pursuing proprietors and corpo-rations as part of a directive from The Faith in the Future Foundation, which assumed leadership and operational management of the archdiocese’s 17 high schools and four special education institutions Sept. 1. That move followed a tumultuous year of consolidations and closings that proved the need for greater fi nancial intervention. The tax-credit brainchild permits entities to acquire a 75 percent tax credit for a one-year commitment and a 90-percent boon when making a two-year undertaking, with their decision not affecting their bud-get. Five taxes help them to qualify and can help them to up their total credit fi gure to $800,000 through the commonwealth’s Educational Improvement Tax Credit campaign, which aided Neumann-Goretti and fi ve other local schools with a $98,416 gift Oct. 24 at Our Lady of Hope Regional Catholic School, 1248 Jackson St.

“When one considers that the School

District of Philadelphia has said it must close schools, the next few years will in-volve many transitions,” O’Brien said. “Because of that forecast, BLOCS is look-ing to offer options to families, and we feel we have wonderful pitches to make.”

His employer supports the aforemen-tioned Faith in the Future locations and the Archdiocese’s 123 elementary sites. He noted 3,500 enrollees will receive $3.5 million in aid this school year, with $4 million already set aside for next fall. As Archbishop Charles Chaput in April united with charter school leaders, district offi cials, Mayor Michael Nutter, the Penn-sylvania Department of Education and the School Reform Commission to form the Philadelphia Great Schools Compact, which strives to increase the city’s number of high-performing schools through talks on best practices, innovation and monetary monitoring, he hopes the once abundant Catholic school system can fi nd itself rein-vigorated, especially Neumann-Goretti.

“It is a great school in a neighborhood that needs a great site,” O’Brien said. “If we could come to funnel displaced stu-dents into Neumann-Goretti, we would feel as if we have done a great service to area families.”

That O’Brien thinks that way and has scheduled a Monday meeting with the Archdiocese’s elementary school princi-pals to discuss the program delights 1st District Councilman Mark Squilla, who, along with Councilman-at-Large James

Kenney, represented the City last week, interacting with nearly two dozen business fi gures who learned how they can sustain South Philly’s parochial identity. Though generated funds will not make a full im-pact until next school year, the 1980 St. John Neumann graduate hopes the spirit will move people to contribute now.

“My Catholic education helped to mold me,” the resident of Front Street and Sny-der Avenue said. “BLOCS is going to make it so feasible for local children to ex-perience the same benefi ts, and businesses will enjoy knowing their actions will be major parts of that growth.”

A manager at Conestoga Bank, 2444 S. Broad St., and mother to Neumann-Goretti sophomore Nicole Fitzpatrick, Jackie Fitz-patrick gladly responded to Murawski’s October outreach to participate. The res-ident of the 2400 block of South Fourth Street is waiting to hear if her establish-ment will receive permission to contribute from its corporate net income tax, with hopes her teenager’s site and others will receive philanthropy.

“It’s for a great cause,” she said. “Neu-mann-Goretti and other Catholic schools offer a wonderful education and great ac-tivities.” SPR

into a battleground state that necessitated late visits from both parties, with former President Bill Clinton visiting four spots Monday for Obama and Romney promot-ing his policies Sunday in Yardley and Tuesday in Pittsburgh.

With 99 percent of the state’s polling lo-cations reporting as of press time, Obama had claimed 52 percent of Pennsylvania’s tally, including 85 percent of Philadel-phia’s votes. Though the city’s number of registered Democrats dwarfs the Repub-lican tally, O’Hare reminded himself of each vote’s importance in trying to secure the Keystone State’s 20 electoral votes for his choice.

“It’s all about 270,” he said of the re-quired electoral votes from the 50 states’ 538 combined notches, of which Obama had scored 303 as of press time, needed to occupy the Oval Offi ce. “Romney is a business man, and the economy is the chief issue. In fact, it should be the fi rst matter people mention when deeming Obama a failure.”

O’Hare has made scrutinizing Obama a cherished pastime since the then-Illinois senator defeated U.S. Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) in a landslide four years ago.

“He had an impressive victory then,” the Point Breeze dweller said of Obama’s win-ning 365 electoral votes and 69,297,997 popular votes, according to the U.S. Elec-toral College. “However, what has hap-pened since? Our debt is atrocious, the [American] Recovery [and Reinvestment] Act [of 2009] failed and health care is go-ing to be disastrous.”

While he felt that trio alone warranted defeat for the 44th president, O’Hare found himself fully enraged Sept. 11, when an attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, left four Americans, including Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, dead. The admin-istration’s response to the aggression peeved him and solidifi ed his admiration for Romney, whom he deemed decisive and sure to lead without lying.

“I’m an old man and have followed each presidency closely since I was a teenager,” he said. “I’ve never been more petrifi ed about this country’s well-being.”

WHILE O’HARE CONSIDERED Obama abys-mal, husband and wife Tech and Nicolena Honors labeled him instrumental in unify-ing the land. The pair from 12th and Dick-inson streets chose social issues, namely reproductive and marriage equality mat-ters, as top concerns in seeking to re-elect him. Making their picks at the South Philadelphia Older Adult Center, 1430

E. Passyunk Ave., they left confi dent that Obama would be able to maximize his campaign slogan “Forward” and advance the nation.

“He hasn’t delivered on all he promised, but I feel he could with more time and re-sources,” Tech Honors, also fond of Green Party candidate Jill Stein, said. “It would be a shame to have his momentum sud-denly interrupted.”

“We believe he is more capable of progress and that a second term will re-ally bring issues such as women’s rights to the forefront, leaving such a matter for women alone to decide,” Nicolena Hon-ors added.

The relentless campaign season tested the Passyunk Square residents less sternly than the ’08 affair because of their move from another battleground state, Ohio, which joined with Florida to form the most coveted pair of states. Regardless of location, they acknowledge the divisive nature of politics comes naturally, as vot-ers’ decisions will affect the world’s third most populous country.

“We’re in a very partisan era, but we think Obama can achieve compromise,” Tech Honors said.

Traffi c at the library, senior center and Barry Playground, 1800 Johnston St., confi rmed pundits’ claims that the race would produce steady streams of pas-sionate voters aware of the day’s signifi -cance. The playground featured numer-

ous presidential signs and materials for the other races, including the contest be-tween Republican challenger Tom Smith and incumbent Democrat U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, who won a second term with 54 percent. All three places have more reg-istered Democrats and Republicans, but being in the minority did not deter Lau-ren Williams.

“I’m really worried about the health-care system’s future, and I am tired of this administration’s failed promises, not that I believed in the rhetoric that much when Obama won in ’08,” the Marconi resident said. “I voted for Mitt because I believe he cares about small businesses and knows how to protect our country, which could mean making places pay for what they’ve done. Also, because of my [Jewish] heritage, I don’t think Obama is a friend to Israel.”

Each site’s judge of elections expect-ed above-average turnout and noted the aforementioned issues and others had re-ceived mention among their ward mem-bers. Considering the whole experience, Anna DiNardo offered that the surplus of issues made keeping everything straight a challenge to voters.

“Today is the day to commit,” the judge at the library site said. “May the best man win.” SPR

COURT REPORTcontinued from page 7

Steered to jail A West Philly woman, who admitted to

chasing her husband with a car multiple times, was convicted of murder for her

latest pursuit in Point Breeze.

When police asked Keisha Jones, 30, of the 5300 block of Ker-shaw Street, if she pre-viously had pursued her spouse, Tyrone Taylor, 28, via an auto-mobile, she said, “Yes, but I didn’t hurt him

until this time,” Assistant District Attor-ney Deborah Nixon said, reading Jones’ statement to police.

A jury found Jones, now 31, guilty Oct. 26 for Taylor’s murder and possession of an instrument of crime, for which she will serve a life sentence without parole, ac-cording to court records.

Her statement, a witness in the car and video surveillance of the incident helped to convict her, Nixon said.

The pair and a relative were driving from a bar in Jones’ 2002 Acura MDX at 1:49 a.m. Nov. 27, ’11 on the 2400 block of Morris Street.

“There were allegations of infi delity,” Nixon said of the claims that went both ways, “and [Taylor], who had been driv-ing the car, elected to get out and walk to a relative’s house.”

When he exited the vehicle, she moved to the driver’s seat, made a sharp left onto the sidewalk and chased him through a fence and a grass lot, crushing him against the side of a building.

“And you could actually see her speed into him [on the video],” she said. “His body was thrust onto windshield.”

At the scene, she told authorities she had run him over and pursued him with the car two to three times previously, Nixon said. On the stand, Jones, who did not have a prior record, claimed the gear shift stuck and she didn’t mean to harm him.

However, Taylor had an abundance of injuries such as lung contusions, a frac-tured left femur and skull fractures that lacerated his brain.

“It wasn’t just his head,” Nixon said. “His head injuries were most signifi cant. ... It was just signifi cant traumatic injury to his body.” SPR

Strings attachedA Hawthorne resident and Philadelphia Orchestra musician said the

upcoming season will be one to remember.By Jess Fuerst

Review Contr ibutor

As a viola player in the Philadel-phia Orchestra, Jonathan Chu, of 11th and Fitzwater streets, is liv-

ing his dream.“It’s tons of fun. It’s my dream job. They are such a great group. We have

great conductors and guest artists. I get to play great music. It’s an

awesome job,” Chu said.

The 31-year-old who just welcomed his second child is looking forward to the upcoming season that promises a new chapter for the recently plagued en-semble, which emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy months before the October premiere of its 113th season.

“The music director is like the head honcho, they call the artistic shots. We haven’t had one for two years,” Chu said. “Now that we have a person — and on top of it, this guy is young, which is

rare — it’ll make a really big difference. [Yannick Nézet-Séguin] is awesome. We are really excited to play for him.”

This is Yannick’s inaugural season in the role, and there is an extensive lineup of performances with multiple guest conduc-tors to add to the novel sound, including The Stokowski Legacy, named for the en-semble’s third director, Leopold Stokows-ki, who served for about three decades, the performance runs tonight through Satur-day at the Kimmel Center’s Verizon Hall. Part of the origin of this year’s program stemmed from the many talented people that were vying for the job.

“The thing with this year is before we got a music director we tried out a bunch of people, especially younger people,” Chu, who is in his fourth season with the orchestra, said. “Some happened to be more energetic and dynamic, so we liked to play with them. A bunch are coming for two weeks at a time, which is kind of rare. Normally people come for one week.”

Chu advised to look out on the schedule for two-week stays, as those promise to be a great marriage between the conductor and the group of musicians. Beyond that, how-ever, the musician said he defers to the more seasoned among the orchestra members to judge the quality of the current slate.

“I’ve only be around a bit, but the older

members say it’s something really special. The Philadelphia Orchestra is sounding better than ever,” he said. “People should come out. It’s the same as going to support a hometown team. You know that you are seeing world-class stuff.”

Chu, a classical musician who followed a slightly untraditional path, also breaks it down for the uninitiated among the masses.

“Another reason to see the Philadelphia Orchestra is it’s really one of the greatest ensembles. If the Phillies are fi elding a great team, it’s worth coming out to see [Roy] Halladay pitch a gem. It’s like see-ing a no-hitter. It’s really special,” he said.

IN UPSTATE NEW York, a young Chu had his fi rst taste of classical music from, iron-ically, his current employer.

“I’m from the Albany area and the [Philadelphia] Orchestra has a summer residency in Saratoga Springs,” Chu said. “There is a decent classical music scene in the Albany area. I learned to play the violin when I was 4. In the summers I’d go here in Philly. I remember sitting on the lawn outdoors at The Mann [Center for the Performing Arts] and I’d hear the orchestra soloists and they sounded really great.”

Chu trained on the violin, and from time to time on the trombone. While he excelled at his hobby, it was not an all-consuming one.

“I wasn’t sure. I enjoyed playing, which is basically the reason I went [to Vander-bilt University in Nashville, Tenn.]. There were other schools I applied to to see what else was out there. I ended up doing a double major in [music and] economics, which has come in a little bit handy, but it was mostly interesting,” he said.

With a bachelor’s in hand by 2003, Chu had decided to pursue a career as a clas-sical musician. His next round of training took him to New York City, where he at-tended The Julliard School. Professional-ly, he relocated in ’06 to join the St. Louis Symphony, but it wasn’t what he wanted.

“It wasn’t really right for me at that time in my life, being a single guy so far away from my family,” Chu, who now lives with his wife and two children, a 2- and 18-month-old, said. “New York is an awe-some scene, I came to Philly in 2008 and had one audition.”

The audition process, as it is with most orchestras, involved a series of blind au-ditions where he played selections from works he was told to prepare in the months prior. Chu said it is very stressful, but when it works out, it can be exciting.

“It’s one of the few jobs, if not the only, where it’s really blind … I survived the gauntlet. I never thought I’d be in Philly. It’s one of the best orchestras in the world,” Chu,

who plays the viola in the orchestra, said. “That sounds a bit like I’m patting myself on the back or something, but it’s defi nitely in the top fi ve in the country and I’d say in the world. It’s such a fun group to play with.”

As with any job or team, the group chem-istry really matters, and this group, Chu and his fellow instrumentalists think, has got it right. The missing piece Chu likened to a boss, and Nézet-Séguin will fi ll that gap as music director for the next two years.

“It’ll be something new, something fresh — it’s a really exciting time backstage,” he said. “If you haven’t seen the orchestra before, it’s a great time to jump in on the general excitement.”

And for Chu, personally, following one of his performances, he hopes the audi-ence walks out of the venue with a part of his passion.

“I’m sure it’s like a baseball players — they feel the same way. The point of what you do is for the audience,” Chu said. “If I was a great orator, I’d be a politician or if I was a great writer, I’d write a book. I may stumble over words in an interview like this, but when I play, I hope, you can hear it, and I can communicate in a more direct way. I hope people walk away with some-thing. That’s why I love to perform.” SPR

Weathering the storm

I grew up in a house where my other-wise courageous father was scared as hell of storms. We lived around Fifth and Jackson streets, not some place

that was particularly vulnerable to storms, but that didn’t matter to Dad. During any amount of rainfall, he would remove the plugs from the electrical outlets for every appliance. We didn’t have to worry about a power outage because my father mandated that we shut off all of the lights. And there we would sit through every storm — in the dark by the light of a lone glowing candle while Dad regaled us with tales of destruc-tion. You can imagine growing up in an environment where a thunderstorm was treated like the apocalypse. Even now as an adult, I didn’t handle Hurricane Sandy very well.

My wife and son had to emotionally strap me down and surround me with a case of water, a fl ashlight and some Uncle Jerry’s Pretzels before I would calm down. I suspect that they also dumped a tranquil-izer into my cranberry juice.

My dad’s sister, my sole surviving aunt, laughed when I told her how panicky I was every time weatherman Glenn “Hur-ricane” Schwartz turned his mournful eyes on me and kept repeating the words “super storm.” She confessed storms also were treated as equal opportunity major catas-trophes in the home where she and my father grew up on Darien Street. Her par-ents fervently believed Darien Street was a major target for destructive storms, despite historical weather patterns to the contrary.

If my folks had been alive last week when the hurricane struck, they no doubt would have been huddled in the base-ment of his home (a concrete bunker that he had single-handedly built to ward off nuclear destruction for the Cardella fam-ily), surrounded by photos of all of the popes and U. S. presidents, mountains of canned goods and gallons of bottled wa-ter. He might have been scared, but he also believed in being prepared. Unfortunately, I am scared and never prepared.

Fear is contagious. It was no surprise that my mother also was intensely afraid of even a rumble of thunder, let alone a full-blown hurricane. In September 1989, when warnings were issued about Hur-ricane Hugo threatening to impact Philly, my wife and I were enjoying a weekend in New York. I insisted we hurry back home

ahead of the hurricane to be with Mom. As you can imagine, it was not a popular idea with my spouse, even more so in ret-rospect when Hugo had minimal effect on South Philly where Mom lived across from St. Monica Church. Mom was fi ne. We weren’t. And so went another storm. I still have not learned my lesson.

It’s not as if we were unfortunately trapped in New Orleans during Katrina (although I remarked at the time, lucky we hadn’t been there). For the better part of four days we watched coverage of Hurricane Sandy. Ini-tially we watched as our local meteorologists tracked the storm on brightly colored maps. We began taking bets on the accuracy of the European model versus the American model and then suddenly the two models agreed and the storm hit. It was the fi rst time in a while America and Europe agreed on anything.

I kept waiting for the lights to go out, nervously holding my small fl ashlight that would not have made a dent in the darkness. Reports kept mounting of power outages and I kept watching the lights in our home steadfastly stay on. Wait, was that a fl icker in the kitchen or did I blink too many times?

The local stations now had switched to awful scenes of devastation at the sea-shore. I feared for little Denise Nakano of NBC, who was storm battered on the beach, a mere prop to tell us how badly the storm was affecting the Shore. What was Susan Barnett, a CBS co-anchor, doing huddled in someone’s kitchen down the Shore broadcasting by candlelight? Was I noticing a pattern here where the male an-chors were seated comfortably in the stu-dio while their female counterparts were sent out into the dark night to cover the storm? What next, Kathy Orr or Sheena Parveen with wet clothes clinging to them — at this point, my wife read my mind as only wives can do, and slapped me out of my reverie. I kept looking out of my front and back doors for damage, but nary a leaf or a trash can was out of place.

No sooner was the storm over when the TV stations moved on to their aftermath coverage. Focus shifted back to the worst hit areas to see the same bleary-eyed re-porters in baseball caps and rain gear standing in a couple of feet of water or on sand-fi lled streets, or President Barack Obama and New Jersey Gov. Chris Chris-tie with their arms around one another. I fi gured I must now be hallucinating.

I timidly stepped out of our home Tues-day morning to survey the damage. A tree down here, a telephone wire there. Moya-mensing Avenue had been blocked off temporarily. But we really had survived intact. That’s when I followed a good old South Philly custom — I walked 10 blocks to get a loaf of freshly baked bread. SPR

Comment at southphillyreview.com/opinion/cardella.

By R. Kurt OsenlundMovie Rev iewer

It’s the opinion of some that James Bond fi lms run on an alternating cycle, with the gems of the series fl anking 007’s misfi res. That’s not quite true of the

franchise at large, as Sean Connery kicked things off with a string of memorable hits, but it’s surely true of Daniel Craig’s run as the suave agent, who soared in “Casino Royale,” tanked in the dismal “Quantum of Solace,” and is back with a vengeance in the superb “Skyfall.” Directed by Sam Mendes, who excels in an unfamiliar genre, the keenly made actioner propels Bond forward while digging into his roots, yielding a movie that should please every-one while still resisting compromise.

Following an unprecedented opening sequence, Bond and MI6 bigwig M (Judi Dench) are in trouble, as a deranged and vengeful ex-agent, Raul Silva (Javier Bar-dem), unleashes his lethal brand of cyber terrorism, which publicly unmasks under-cover spies and leads to their deaths in the fi eld. Bardem makes a great and color-ful Bond villain, whose quirks include a bleached-blonde coif, an eerie removable jaw, and a Freudian link to M that’s tinged with sexual ambiguity.

There’s no shortage of slinky Bond girls either, as Bérénice Marlohe is aces as the sharp-taloned Sévérine, and Naomie Har-ris complements Craig nicely as a freshly-minted Moneypenny. Also on board is the terrifi c Ben Whishaw, who brings bespecta-cled panache as the new incarnation of Q.

“Skyfall” is all about mixing the cutting-edge with the vintage, from the modern resurrection of Bond’s iconic Aston Mar-tin to a trial that holds M responsible for MI6’s failings, and accuses the agent pro-

gram of being out of date. But, of course, that program is all that will save London from its ultra-contempo nemesis, and this movie preaches the power of classics without getting tied up in cobwebs.

We hear a familiar tune, and catch a glance of that signature cocktail, but we also see what seem like pushed boundaries for Bond, like a bombed MI6 agency and a riveting courtroom attack. Reinvigorat-ing the series, “Skyfall” proves that what is old can be new again.

SkyfallPG-13 Three-and-a-half reels out of fourOpens tomorrow in area theaters

The Queen ofVersaillesPGAvailable Tuesday

An unmissable documentary, “The Queen of Versailles” tells the crumbling tale of David and Jackie Siegel, a time share mogul and his pampered trophy wife who set out to build America’s big-gest home, then fall into near-ruin amid the fi nancial crisis. Directed by Lauren Greenfi eld, who began the project pre-meltdown, the fi lm is a fascinating alter-nate take on who’s been hit by our trou-bled economy. It’s the sort of fi lm you put in a time capsule. SPR

Ale unveil

Brew master Phil Leinhart from Cooperstown, N.Y.’s Brewery

Ommegang is celebrating the launch of Duvel Rustica, a Belgian-style golden ale, 6 p.m. Nov. 14 at Stateside, 1536 E. Passyunk Ave.

Guests can to enjoy the new prod-uct in bottles or on draft as Leinhart discusses the brew, which was two-years-in-the-making. The event is pay-as-you-go.

For more information, call 215-551-2500 or visit statesidephilly.com. SPR

T he crisp fall air often inspires many home cooks to turn up the burners and create a simmering sensation that can be smelled from the front door. Continue to follow

the scent and one may want to grab a spoon to sneak a taste of Marge Lord’s Beef Soup. Be warned that any unwanted tres-passers may be scolded with the Soup Nazi’s famous phrase “No soup for you!”

Luckily, Marge’s dish only requires an hour of cooking time so just be patient. The resident of 2100 block of South Hancock Street, suggests serving it with a loaf of perfect-for-dipping French bread. SPR

I N G R E D I E N T S :1- 1/2 pounds of ground

beef1 cup of onion, chopped 2 garlic cloves, chopped 1 28-ounce can of tomato

puree6 cups of water6 beef bouillon cubes1/4 teaspoon of pepper1 cup of uncooked orzo1- 1/2 cups of frozen peas,

carrots and corn

D I R E C T I O N S :Cook the beef, onion and

garlic in a large saucepan over medium heat until the meat is brown. Add the to-mato puree, water, bouil-lon cubes and pepper to the mixture. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes.

Add the orzo and veg-etables and simmer for an additional 40 minutes.

For the past few weeks, I’ve written about new South Philly restaurants. New places are popping up all over town so as I wait for them to open

their doors, Edward and I decided to visit an old friend.

Nam Phuong opened on Washington Avenue more than 10 years ago. A South Philly friend recommended it especially because we enjoy Vietnamese food. In many ways, it is the quintessential family restaurant. Portions are large and prices so moderate you won’t believe what you see on the menu. Keep in mind there are more than 300 items listed, but the waitstaff is there to guide you.

Nam Phuong is a brightly lit, open dining room with small crystal chandeliers, tables covered in white linen and a caddy of con-diments at hand to enhance the dishes.

Edward and I sipped a martini ($5.50) and looked around the room. Several large Vietnamese families were tucking into big platters of beautifully displayed ingredi-ents. We also noticed many diners were sipping large bowls of pho, which I usu-ally reserve for a hearty lunch. I instinc-tively knew soup would fi ll me up.

I poured myself a hot cup of tea and looked forward to our appetizers. Two crisp spring rolls ($2.95) fi lled with minced pork, shrimp and vegetables arrived with a sweet and sour dipping sauce and sprigs of fragrant basil. A small mound of lettuce was included on the plate.

Quite often summer rolls can be quite bland, but Nam Phuong’s ($3) were un-commonly good. There was a choice of shrimp and pork or shrimp and chicken.

We went for the former because the thin slices of chargrilled pork complemented the delicate taste of the shrimp. Per-fectly cooked vermicelli was mixed with the pork, shrimp and a hint of basil then wrapped in cool rice-paper wrappers. The peanut dipping sauce was about as fi ne as I have sampled. The cooks hit the texture of the sauce as it was neither too thin nor too viscous.

The huge platter that the families were en-joying, turned out to be Ba Vi ($23.95). It might’ve been listed for two people, but looked like it could have served a small army.

“If you order this dish, you don’t need to order anything else,” our served advised.

Since we enjoyed our appetizers, he rec-ommended a smaller version of this dish. Small? For just $9.95, Edward and I could not believe the portion of the Tom Thit Nuong when it arrived at the table.

One side of a large round platter was lined with crisp lettuce leaves, sprigs of mint and basil, along with cool English cucumber slices and thinly sliced, slightly pickled carrots and daikon radish. A bed of vermicelli sat on the other side topped with more than a dozen medium chargrilled, beautifully seasoned shrimp and slices of grilled pork. A portioned receptacle fi lled with warm water was on one side with round rice paper wraps on the other.

We had fun dipping the round wrap-per into the warm water, which softens it so it is ready to be stuffed. Simply place the ingredients inside, wrap it up like an Asian blintze and top with any condiment

of choice, such as the peanut sauce, which was splendid, or a choice of hot sauces from the caddy.

Our server also recommended a crispy egg noodle dish ($9.95), which was formed into a nest. It was brimming with sautéed shrimp, scallops, crabmeat, squid and mixed vegetables, including straw mushrooms, water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, carrots, napa cabbage and Chinese broccoli, bathed in a light savory sauce. There were a number of ingredients in-cluded here but I found each one was cooked just right. None of the fi sh were mushy, the noodles stayed crisp and the variety of vegetables added color, texture and fl avor.

Service is so quick, you might wish to order a dish or two, enjoy them and order more. This is exactly what Edward and I did while enjoying dinner with an old friend.

Three tips of the toque to Nam Phuong. SPR

Phyllis Stein-NovackFood Columnist

In his book “Born Round,” former New York Times restaurant critic Frank Bru-ni takes several pages to describe the or-ganized frenzy his mother experienced

each Thanksgiving. The order for battle be-gan the weekend before the big event with lists and Post-its to help ease her anxiety of hosting the dinner for his large extended Italian-American family. I laughed out loud as I read this portion of the book, especially each time she bothered her husband “don’t forget to pick up the cannoli.”

There should be no frenzy and anxiety over this most American celebration. My culinary mantra is clean out the refrig-erator, keep the menu simple, prepare as many dishes a day or two in advance and face the reality that the majority of us are not Martha Stewart.

Thanksgiving is the most traditional of holidays. This is not the time to tamper with it. Each family has its favorite dishes and looks forward to enjoying them each year. I know mine does.

Growing up, we never ate mashed po-tatoes at Thanksgiving. Sweet potatoes joined the turkey because my grandmother loved them and would often add one to her pot of vegetable soup. I don’t recall Brus-sels sprouts because they became popular in the late-’80s. Green beans, homemade

stuffi ng prepared with challah, a relish tray for added crunch and her homemade apple strudel (no phyllo please) were served with homemade pumpkin pie.

Our Thanksgiving dinner has settled in nicely through the years. I purchase an or-ganic turkey from Godshall’s Poultry in the Reading Terminal Market. After I warm it to room temperature, Sandy and I walk the fi ve minutes to the Parkway to catch part of the parade, come home and watch the dog show. Then the bird goes into the oven around 2 p.m.

I made cranberry relish from scratch last year for the fi rst time. I could not believe how easy it was. The cranberry relish, Mushroom Stuffi ng and Sweet Potato Souf-fl é are made the day before Thanksgiving.

The late Nora Ephron believed, as I do, that Pepperidge Farm crushed herb stuffi ng mix is the best basis for it. She also believed that making pie dough from scratch is too much work. Buying the dough or a ready-made one for pumpkin pie, using canned un-sweetened pumpkin, is the relaxing route.

Here are side dishes for a delicious Thanksgiving. Next week we will turn our attention to the turkey, Brussels sprouts and homemade cranberry relish.

■ Mushroom Stuffi ng ■Ingredients:

1 large onion, diced

1 shallot, diced2 ribs of celery, diced1-1/2 pounds of mushrooms of choice,

wiped clean and diced1 Braeburn apple or 1 Anjou pear,

seeded and diced2 tablespoons of unsalted butter2 tablespoons of Canola oil1 12-ounce bag of Pepperidge Farm

herbed crushed stuffi ng1 32-ounce package of chicken or veg-

etable brothKosher salt and freshly ground black

pepper, to taste

Directions:Place the onion, shallot and celery in a

bowl and toss well. Place the mushrooms in a bowl. Keep the apple or pear on the cutting board.

Heat the butter and oil in a large skil-let over medium. Add the onion, shallot and celery and sauté for about fi ve min-utes. Place the vegetables in a large bowl. Add the mushrooms and sauté them until they give up their juices, for about fi ve minutes. Place them in the bowl with the vegetables. Blend well. Add the apple or pear and blend. Add the stuffi ng mix and about half of the broth. Blend well. Add more of the broth if the stuffi ng feels dry. It should be quite moist. Season with the salt and pepper.

Spray a large baking dish with vegeta-ble spray. Place the stuffi ng in the dish. As your turkey rests, place the stuffi ng in the 350-degree oven and bake for 30 minutes.

Serves six.

■ Sweet Potato Souffl é ■Ingredients:

4 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Sprinkling of cinnamon4 extra-large eggs, separated1 stick of unsalted butter, melted1-1/2 cups of chopped nuts, such as

pecans or pistachios

Directions:Place the potatoes in a large pot and cov-

er with cold water. Bring to a boil, lower the heat to medium and cook the potatoes for about 30 minutes or until they are ten-der. Drain and set aside. Sprinkle with the salt, pepper and cinnamon.

When cool, place them in the bowl of the food processor fi tted with the steel blade and process until the mixture looks liked baby food. You may need to do this in batches.

Whip the egg whites with a hand mixer until soft peaks form. Beat the yolks with a fork.

Spray a 1-1/2-quart casserole dish with vegetable spray. Place the potatoes in a large bowl. Blend well. Gently fold in the egg whites and egg yolks. Blend well.

Pour the mixture into the casserole dish. When ready to heat and serve, mix the but-ter with the nuts. Coat the top of the souf-fl é with the mixture and smooth the top.

As your turkey rests, place the souffl é in the 350-degree oven and cook for about 45 minutes or until the potatoes puff up.

Serves six. SPR

By Joseph MyersReview Staff Writer

As his Hall of Fame career has helped him to extend his country’s tradition of producing talented tennis play-ers with gregarious attitudes, Aus-

tralian Patrick Rafter enjoyed captivating Friday’s crowd at the Wells Fargo Center, 3601 S. Broad St. The 39-year-old net pa-troller used his lauded serve-and-volley tactics to down the legendary John McEn-roe and claim The Champions Shootout, the fth event of this year’s PowerShares Series for stars who once dominated the Association of Tennis Professionals World Tour. The night ended a three-year absence from the series for Rafter, who earned 400 points and many more accolades from the impressed spectators.

“I thought it would be great to have a bit of fun,” the Aussie said of returning to the division of competition that fellow Hall of Fame enshrinee and Friday participant Jim Courier devised in 2005 through InsideOut Sports & Entertainment. “I feel like I’m still at an age where I can hit the ball well, so I want to enjoy it while I can, and it was really nice to win the fi rst time out.”

Rafter, who captured the U.S. Open in 1997 and ’98 and briefl y topped the rank-ings in ’99, advanced to the fi nal by beat-ing Michael Chang, the speedy American who became the youngest male major winner in ’89 by winning the French Open at 17. Before Rafter dazzled the audience with his deft touch and sharp reflexes, McEnroe and Courier tested each other’s strokes and resolve. Over his brilliant and often controversial 14-year career, McEnroe collected seven Grand Slam singles titles, received three Player of the Year honors and held the No. 1 ranking for 170 weeks. The owner of great hands and a short temper, the 53-year-old displayed both against four-time major triumpher Courier.

As McEnroe served as a preeminent net presence in amassing 77 singles and 71 doubles titles, the ’99 Hall of Fame inductee looked to rush Courier, but the

latter, whose 58 weeks atop the rankings aided in his 2005 election to the Newport, R.I.-situated shrine, forced his elder to settle for early baseline rallies. After sav-ing two break points to hold serve, the 42-year-old, who captains the U.S. Davis Cup squad that this year advanced to the semifi nals in the sport’s chief international team event, broke McEnroe, who smacked a ball into the stands, to go up 2-0. Having also thundered his ineffective wand onto the court three times, the frustrated fi gure abandoned his agitation and converted his fi fth break chance to narrow the score.

Numerous “Let’s go, John” and “Let’s go, Mac” chants inspired the New Yorker, who traded fi nesse shots with his fellow Empire State dweller over the next fi ve games. At 4-4, McEnroe heightened his aggression and upped Courier’s quanda-ries by breaking. His yell charmed the patrons, who overwhelmingly supported him in the one-set encounter. He executed

a backhand passing shot to earn a 6-4 win and an interview with Tennis Channel commentator Brett Haber.

“I just hope this support will be there for me in the fi nal, too,” he said to hearty cheers.

IF MCENROE HAD hoped for abundant rest before the championship duel, Rafter dis-appointed him. He engaged Chang, an ’08 Hall of Fame selection, in excellent rallies during the premiere game, holding courte-sy of his net skills. Using incredible court coverage and his exquisite backhand, he stymied his foe, whose troubles clearing the net dug him a 3-0 defi cit.

Chang, a fi ll-in for 14-time major winner

Pete Sampras, who pulled out with a right calf muscle injury, successfully passed Raf-ter on his forehand side, but the latter, who lost seven of their 11 ATP contests, dictated play. His small racquet loomed large as he continually confounded the former world No. 2 with depth from the baseline and dev-astating angles at the net. Breaking serve again, he sealed a 6-2 triumph to set up his initial battle with McEnroe.

The combatants employed their net-heavy strategy to begin, with the fans frequently needing to gasp in awe as their athleticism

staged a 3-3 tie in the fi rst-to-eight affair. McEnroe, with three fi nals and one

title to his name entering the fi fth showdown of the series, which

also features Andre Agassi and Ivan Lendl, wasted two break points, then lost his serve to go down 5-3. He responded by breaking back yet faced pressure in the 10th game.

“Come on, John, the eye of the tiger,” one supporter yelled.

“What the hell does that mean?” McEnroe shot back, to laughter.

Rafter moved his op-ponent side to side and

broke again. Familiar to area tennis buffs through his

time with World TeamTen-nis’ Philadelphia Freedoms, he

thwarted McEnroe with more net ventures and claimed another break

to cement an 8-4 victory.“I’m sorry I broke some hearts by beat-

ing two Americans,” the affable Aussie said to the crowd.

As for fi nally facing McEnroe, Rafter admitted his awkward style made him readjust his service approach, though nothing was going to deter his serve-and-volley infatuation.

“It’s all I’ve got, mate,” he said.“I was interested in winning, but inter-

acting with the crowd was enjoyable,” McEnroe said.

Their tour continues tomorrow in Tampa, Fla., and concludes Nov. 30 in Anaheim, Calif. SPR

sacred heart of jesusnever fail novenaMay the Sacred Heart of Jesus be adored, glorified, loved and preserved throughout the world, now and forever. Sacred Heart of Jesus, pray for us. St. Jude, worker of miracles, have mercy on us. St. Jude, helper of the hope-less, pray for us. Say this prayer nine times a day for eight days and your prayer will be answered. Publication must be promised. V.G.

prayer to the holy spirit Holy Spirit, You who make me see everything and who shows me the way to reach my ideals, You who give me the divine gift to forgive and forget the wrong that is done to me and You, who are in all the instances of my life with me, I, in this short dialogue want to thank you for everything and affirm once more that I never want to be separated from you no matter how great the material desires may be. I want to be with you and my loved ones in your perpetual glory. AMEN. Thank You for your love towards me and my loved ones. Pray this prayer three consecutive days straight without asking for your wish. After the third day your wish will be granted. Promise to publish your dialogue as soon as your favor has been granted.
