South Philly

by Maria Merlino The Monday, May 4, “A Taste of South Philly” fundraiser, held at the SS. John Neumann & Maria Goretti Catholic High School’s Goretti gym, was a rousing success, as the crowded gym took on a festive air.

The hosts, WOGL-98’s Bob Pantano, a Bishop Neumann graduate, and his beautiful wife Debbie, provided the finest that the culinary world has to offer.Another Neumann graduate, Councilman Mark Squilla, stopped by and mingled with friends and family.

The throng sampled wine, beer, gourmet foods and delectable desserts

The Public Record • May 7, 2015

Philadelphia voters are beginning to notice there is an election coming up and it is around the corner.

Many are still unsure of their choice according to the latest polls, which indicate a smart move by any one of the six mayoral contenders, similar to the TV ad that propelled Mayor Michael Nutter to victory two terms ago, could be decisive.

This getting to look like the Kentucky Derby, with close odds and some surprises in store.

In the meantime, there is a special election for those in the 5th Senatorial Dist., which needs to be called to the attention of the voters by both parties.

Odds favor the at-large Council Members endorsed in the Democratic primary, but several unendorsed candidates enjoy strong name recognition and significant grass-roots support, so no at-large candidate will sleep easy until May 20.

Republicans are enjoying a rare at-large race without any endorsements by their City Committee. Five win; two get dropped off; and the top finishers wind up on the ballot in the general election in that order, which is thought to help them. So this too is a fierce struggle, with much at stake for the candidates as well as for the voters.

Longtime WARD LEADER AGNES (“CHUCKIE”) TILLEY was laid to rest last Thursday. Tilley’s Republican activism dates back to the 1960s when she first became a committeewoman in the 35th Ward. She has been a delegate to many Republican National Conventions, including the mostrecent one in Tampa in 2012. She found time to volunteer despite working for many years as secretary and raising six children. She was well loved, as was indicated by the hourlong line at her viewing on Wednesday night. She was a great woman and will be missed.

There were a number of fundraisers over the past week.

Last Thursday night, Republican City Committee CHAIRMAN and STATE REP. JOHN TAYLOR held an event at the Colonial Dames of Philadelphia on Latimer Street. The room was packed. Attendees were treated to cigars and a wine tasting.

Sunday morning, the 1st and 39th Wards held their annual brunch. The master of ceremonies was DOM CHIAVAROLI, who introduced the candidates present, including council-at-large CANDIDATES DENNIS O’BRIEN, AL TAUBENBERGER, DAN TINNEY, TERRY TRACY and MATT WOLFE, as well as mayoral candidate MELISSA MURRAY BAILEY and Register of Wills candidate ROSS FEINGOLD. Many of the candidates at the brunch traveled to Bridesburg later that day to attend the 58th Ward’s second annual Crab Fest event at the Harmonia Club in Bridesburg.

The event was great success, owing to the work for the 58TH WARD LEADER MARC COLLAZZO. (Cont. Page 25)

As you read this edition of “Out and About” right now, there’s probably some sort of gathering of the six people running for the Democratic nomination for Mayor of Philadelphia.

I’m serious.

It’s as if there’s a mayoral candidate forum every week.

Sometimes there are two or three forums going on in a week.

I’m pretty sure the six folks running for that nomination are getting tired of seeing, and hearing, and talking to each other by this point.

Now, while finding out the identity of one of the people who could be taking the Big Chair on the second floor of City Hall is important, there’s another group of people that we’re not really taking a look at.

City Council.

If we’re honest with ourselves, City Council has shown it too has muscles and is more than willing to flex them. Just ask the folks who were hoping to buy the Philadelphia Gas Works from the City. While most of the Democratic primary district races have unopposed incumbents, the Second and Seventh district races being the most-obvious exceptions, there are 23 people — 16 Democrats, seven Republicans — that are running for the seven at-large council seats that are up for election this time around.

If you want to hear their plans for the city, please join me at the Bibleway Baptist Church, 1323 N. 52nd Street, for a forum featuring the candidates for City Council at Large. Starting at 6:30, I’ll be moderating a forum tonight that will allow you … and me … to get the answers we’re seeking.

(Cont. Page 26)

ARE THEY JOKING? The Nutter Administration has reservations about an APP that allows you to remotely pay the parking meter?? They fear loss of revenue to the schools from parking tickets. Does this confirm that tickets are a SUBLIMINAL TAX? Do they want a citizen to GET A TICKET? Time to change from Camel to Marlboro? Parking Authority Director Vince FENERTY’S idea is 21ST CENTURY for busy people. The INNOVATION could easily produce MORE REVENUE for schools, since fees go up after the initial time limit. (If the Nutter $100,000 jobs are eliminated – the $9M that the City says it might lose with the APP is recovered).... If you get a ticket and go to the BAA at 9th & Filbert (Run by the City FINANCE DEPARTMENT) to fight it thinking that you have a sterling defense – FORGET IT. One lawmaker testified that you are “innocent until proven guilty.” And if you appeal – THEY HEAR THEIR OWN APPEALS??? Pittsburgh realized that it is improper to do that and created a separate agency. Off course, if you want to appeal to Common Pleas Court – just FORK OVER $189 in fees to fight a $26 ticket.

YOU CANNOT get on a BAA payment plan if you do not have a checking or debit account.

Does that leave out the POOR? It is incredible that the FINANCE DEPT. is allowed to run a “judicial body” akin to a HUGE VACUUM CLEANER INTO YOUR WALLET. Hey, next Mayor – REFORM this please.... Reporters are constantly writing of ETHICS VIOLATIONS. So BORING. What about the Society of Professional Journalists Code of ETHICS, which stresses to DO LITTLE HARM? Also BORING is the new slant on the ASSAULT on Kathleen KANE. A SEXUAL HARASSMENT STORY actually appeared on a Friday, and then a variation of it on the following Sunday.

If there is a dedicated effort to BRING DOWN KANE, then we NEED TO KNOW who is DIRECTING it. Let’s check it out. It is not fair that the same journalists write about Kane OVER AND OVER, since it feels as though they are not able to be creative on anything else (?)....

Sexual Harassment complaints once hit a high point. The money settlements were good, but then it was tougher to prove a case. I worked in an office with SIX complaints; the last hearing was dismissed and “laughable.”

Yo! Maria, a reader, says,” Hey, wasn’t that us?”

A little house with three bedrooms and one car on the street, a mower that you had to push to make the grass look neat. In the kitchen on the wall we only had one phone, and no need for recording things, someone was always home.

We only had a living room where we would congregate, unless it was at mealtime in the kitchen where we ate. We had no need for family rooms or extra rooms to dine, when meeting as a family those two rooms would work out fine.

We only had one TV set, and channels maybe two, but always there was one of them with something worth the view.

For snacks we had potato chips that tasted like a chip, and if you wanted flavor there was Lipton’s onion dip.

Weekends were for family trips or staying home to play, we all did things together — even go to church to pray.

When we did our weekend trips, depending on the weather, no one stayed at home because we liked to be together. Sometimes we would separate to do things on our own, but we knew where the others were without our own cell phone.

Then there were the movies with your favorite movie star, and nothing can compare to watching movies in your car. Then there were the picnics at the peak of summer season. Pack a lunch and find some trees and never need a reason.

Get a baseball game together with all the friends you know, have real action playing ball — and no game video. Remember going to the store and shopping casually, and when you went (Cont. Page 32)

The Union League was packed with VIPs for the quarterly luncheon of the Pennsylvania Society. The lovely CAROL FITZGERALD is the president and highly respected businessman NICK DeBENEDICTIS is the executive director. The lunch was absolutely sold out but more tables were at it in a different room to accommodate the overflow crowd of 700.

United States SENS. PAT TOOMEY and BOB CASEY joined LT. GOV. MIKE STACK at the head table. They were joined by the honorees, the special SISTER MARY SCULLION and philanthropist JAMES McQUADE. Also in attendance were power attorney BILL SASSO, former MAJORITY LEADER DOMINIC PILEGGI, STATE REP. TOM KILLION and Supreme Court JUSTICE COREY STEVENS. The event was Republican-heavy but Democrats did attend, among them former STATE SEN. BOB ROVNER and STATE SEN. LARRY FARNESE. Former LT. GOV. JIM CAWLEY hung out with Montgomery County powerbroker BOB ASHER. Former GOV. MARK SCHWEIKER also worked the room.

The great HARRY CITRINO was laid to rest recently. Harry was an excellent attorney and outstanding husband and father who ran competitive races for City Council and served as a key committeeman in Northeast Philadelphia. He was a mentor and supporter of many politicians, including Lt., Gov. Mike Stack and his own son ROCKY CITRINO. He was a man of incredible wit and dedication who was perhaps one of the smartest tax attorneys in Philadelphia. His beautiful wife ROSE will carry the mantle of service and kindness well into the future.

The priest who delivered the homily at Harry’s funeral mass was interrupted by applause on three different occasions. This is the kind of unprecedented happening at a funeral that demonstrates what a unique figure Harry Citrino was.

Some whisper his name when making comments, others brag about his name aloud. Whether in fear or in respect, all opinions agree JOHN J. DOUGERTY’s influence will be felt in the races for Supreme Court, pushing brother KEVIN; in the Mayor’s race, propelling JIM KENNEY with major PAC contributions and union support; and for Council at Large, making sure his friends remember ED NEILSON, one of his earliest protégés.

Doing the hosting are the Laborers’ Employers Cooperation Education Trust (LECET), Laborers’ District Council of Philadelphia & Vicinity, Laborers’ Local 332, Laborers’ Local 57, Laborers’ Local 135 and Laborers’ Local 413. Candidates running for public office are invited.

(Cont. From Page 14) The other race catching the attention of labor, ward and party leaders is for City Commissioners. Endorsed are Chairman Anthony Clark and Lisa Deeley. Picking up strength has been Omar Sabir, followed by Carol Jenkins in a field of six.

Will Mega and Tracey Gordon are close behind.

The mayoral races have erupted into charges being hurled. In the latest televised debate, Jim Kenney, perceived to be in the lead, earned the brunt of charges. He also scored with a walk with Council President Darrell Clark in Clark’s 4th Dist. Yet here again, the race remains too close to call, with turnout being the major factor.

Labor is split on this race as well.

Obvious frontrunners remain Jim Kenney and Tony Williams, with more traction being picked up by DA Lynne Abraham, who still leads in name recognition, and some, but not much, from Doug Oliver.

Every critic lauds Judge Nelson Díaz, including editorial writers. Yet they acknowledge he is not attracting voter support in large numbers. To prove them wrong, he addressed Latino voters in the WPVI debate Tuesday night and is now on television until the end of the campaign.

The one startling comment in the debate that can grow as a vote-maker or -loser between now and May 19 came from Williams, who revealed, if elected, he would get rid of Commissioner Charles Ramsey and appoint a Police Commissioner from within the ranks.

That drew retorts from other debaters. But, pause for a moment here; today’s Police Dept. is smaller by hundreds from the day Ramsey took charge. Despite his efforts to “sensitize” the department, it is obvious in the minds and sounds from marchers jamming Philly streets last week, those interviewed by the television reporters repeatedly blamed the police adminis-

Anthony Hardy Williams has over 20 years of experience fighting in Harrisburg to bring back resources for Philadelphia.

The Public Record • May 7, 2015

“We are long past the time to change our approach to the difficult challenges we face. We have an obligation to prepare our children to be productive citizens for the future.”

The Tuesday, May 19, 2015 Primary Election is not about “picking the lesser of two evils.” For Mayor. It’s about voting for the BEST Candidate to be Philadelphia’s next Great Mayor. That candidate is Democrat, Anthony Hardy Williams, a true fighter for the people and someone who is committed to making it a better city and place to live, work, raise a family and retire. As you look back on history and think about the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960’s and the famous march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma... remember the billy club prepared police officers waiting at the end of the bridge to turn marchers back?

Page 21

Democrats Of Oak Lane Team • Tony has brought back over $250M in funding for Philadelphia Public Schools • Tony is a consensus builder, and brings people together to solve difficult challenges • Tony’s public career has focused on fighting for better job opportunities, improving public education and creating stronger gun safety laws.

Now he wants to fight for a better city As your Mayor, Anthony Hardy Williams will...

Improve Public Education • Fully fund K-12 public education so every neighborhood has a great school • Expand universal Pre-K and provide a tax credit for families who use certified daycare centers.

• Create a program for students to have free early college access

Anthony Hardy Williams says stand strong and know that he’s for better schools, teachers ready to teach, a Police Department that understands — ALL LIVES MATTER and more. If Civil Rights leaders like Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Rosa Parks and, locally, late State Rep. David P. Richardson were alive, they’d be appalled at the state of local politics in Philadelphia. Anthony Hardy Williams is a man of the people, a leader for all the city and a committed, tireless, visionary elected official. Tony’s ready. He’s ready now. Don’t allow a small group — to turn back the hands of progress for Philadelphia leadership. Vote Democrat Anthony Hardy Williams for Mayor, Tuesday, May 19th.

I’ve been trying to figure out how to interview all of the candidates for City Council at Large for months now and it’s been a hard nut to crack for a couple of reasons. One, unlike years past, bad ballot position hasn’t made anyone want to drop out. Two, it’s hard to give a group this big time to fully explain themselves.

City of Philadelphia The City of Philadelphia, Philadelphia International Airport, (PHL) is requesting PROPOSALS for Concession RFP C102-15 the “INSTALLATION, DEVELOPMENT, OPERATION AND MANAGEMENT OF A SELF-SERVICE LUGGAGE CARTS RNETAL PROGRAM AT PHL.” All proposals are to be submitted by 10:30 AM MAY 19, 2015 and also as directed in the REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP). Interested firms are invited to download the rfp directly from http://www.phila.gov/bids/ (click under “Public Works Bidding Opportunities”).

“I’m proud to have the support of both the Greater Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce and Philly Set Go, two organizations that represent much of the dynamic growth our city is seeing right now. Philadelphia’s business and millennial communities are doing so much to build a better city, and that’s something I look forward to working with them on in City Council,” Domb said.

Guiding his campaign have been Dan Feed and John Sabatina, Esq. Both are topnotch, but their styles do clash.

It’s now a ground game, but Domb has planned a major push in that area.

Bills Move To Reduce General Assembly Size Two bills are moving to reduce the size of the Pennsylvania General Assembly. They are now on the way to the State Senate for consideration.

HB 153 would reduce the size of the House of Representatives from 203 to 153 members, while HB 384 would reduce the size of the Senate from 50 to 37 members. Both bills require a constitutional amendment and must be passed identically in both chambers in two consecutive sessions before going to a public referendum. HB 153 passed 139-56.

HB 384 passed 146-49.

The reduction would also require redrawing House and Senate district boundaries, but in the bill’s form would do so without reforming the highly politicized process of redistricting.

Sabatina Goes On Television State Rep. John Sabatina, Jr. (D-Northeast) has gone on television to outline his goals in the May 19 primary to vote in the special election to fill the vacant 5th Senatorial Dist. seat vacated by Lt. Gov. Mike Stack. His opponent is Republican Tim Dailey.

Sabatina, a lifelong Rhawnhurst resident, is the State Representative for Northeast Philadelphia’s 174th Dist. In Harrisburg, Sabatina is the Democratic

chair of the House Agriculture & Rural Affairs Committee and a member of the House Democratic Policy Committee.

A Northeast Philadelphia native, Dailey grew up in Bustleton and has lived in Rhawnhurst for the last 20 years. A graduate of Archbishop Ryan HS and Holy Family University (BA in English, 1994), Dailey has built his career in Catholic high schools, including Monsignor Bonner, West Catholic and, for the last 20 years, Father Judge, where he has taught English, history and psychology.

Another Northeast native, former State Sen. Mike Stack, has ranged far afield. Now Lieutenant Governor, he ran in a Marathon Sunday in Pittsburgh to focus attention on need to raise film tax credits to help local independent filmmakers.

Pa. State Troopers Ass’n Endorses GOP Supremes The Pennsylvania State Troopers Association, which represents more than 8,000 active and retired state troopers, has endorsed Judges Mike George and Judy Olson, Republican candidates in the race for the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.

They are also supporting Emil Giordano in his campaign for a seat on the Superior Court.

“Earning the trust of the Pennsylvania State Police Troopers Association for the primary election is a great honor,” Judge George responded.

“As a Judge with experience in both Common Pleas and Superior Court, I have seen firsthand in case after case the importance of our state troopers,” Judge Olson stated. “I have such admiration for our state troopers and the work they do to keep our neighborhoods and communities safe. State troopers are the first line of defense against crime. They deserve our praise and I am honored to have their support.”

Sealed proposals will be received by the Office of Capital Programs at the School Administration Building located at 440 North Broad St., 3rd Floor, Suite 371, Office of Capital Programs, Philadelphia, PA 19130-4015, until 2:00 P.M., on Tuesday, May 26, 2015.

by Michael A. Cibik, Esq. American Bankruptcy Board Certified Question: How to pick the right bankruptcy lawyer.

Answer: Lawyers are not interchangeable. One lawyer is not necessarily as good as another. Price is probably the poorest basis on which to choose an attorney.

Bankruptcy law is not about filling out forms. You do file forms in bankruptcy, but the job requires a lawyer because it is not obvious what information goes in those forms and what the implications of that information are to the conduct of the case.

For example, you can fill out the form properly, and then find that the Chapter 7 trustee is suing your mother for the money you repaid her before bankruptcy. That can hurt.

Here’s my checklist for evaluating a prospective bankruptcy lawyer.

How much of the lawyer’s practice is bankruptcy cases for individuals?

Does the lawyer have any special qualifications, i.e.

Bankruptcy Board Certification, number of cases filed/court appearances, etc.?

Does the lawyer ask about your goals in filing?

Does the attorney explain your choices and the legal procedures in language you can understand?

Are you comfortable asking questions and disclosing the difficult and messy situations in your financial life?

Are you offered a written representation agreement that you can understand that tells you what services are included in the quoted fee?

Do you get real, unhurried facetime with the lawyer, not staff?

Next Week’s Question: Can foreclosure be stalled by filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy?

In The Court of Common Pleas Philadelphia County Civil Action – Law No. 140500111 Notice of Action in Mortgage Foreclosure JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, Plaintiff vs. Lucky Construction Co., Inc., Michael Mittelman & Doe, John or any unknown persons having or claiming an interest or title to the subjected premises, Mortgagors and Real Owners Defendants To: Lucky Construction Co., Inc. & Doe, John or any unknown persons having or claiming an interest or title to the subjected premises, Mortgagors and Real Owners, Defendant(s), whose last known address is 1739 South 13th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19148. This firm is a debt collector and we are attempting to collect a debt owed to our client. Any information obtained from you will be used for the purpose of collecting the debt. You are hereby notified that Plaintiff, JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, has filed a Mortgage Foreclosure Complaint endorsed with a notice to defend against you in the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, docketed to No. 140500111, wherein Plaintiff seeks to foreclose on the mortgage secured on your property located, 1739 South 13th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19148, whereupon your property will be sold by the Sheriff of Philadelphia County. Notice: You have been sued in court. If you wish to defend against the claims set forth in the following pages, you must take action within twenty (20) days after the Complaint and notice are served, by entering a written appearance personally or by attorney and filing in writing with the court your defenses or objections to the claims set forth against you. You are warned that if you fail to do so the case may proceed without you and a judgment may be entered against you by the Court without further notice for any money claimed in the Complaint for any other claim or relief requested by the Plaintiff. You may lose money or property or other rights important to you. You should take this paper to your lawyer at once. If you do not have a lawyer or cannot afford one, go to or telephone the office set forth below. This office can provide you with information about hiring a lawyer. If you cannot afford to hire a Lawyer, this office may be able to provide you with information about agencies that may offer legal services to eligible persons at a reduced fee or no fee.

WAFFLEMAN (Cont. From Page 12) to pay for it you used your own money?

Nothing that you had to swipe or punch in some amount, remember when the cashier person had to really count? The milkman used to go from door to door, and it was just a few cents more than going to the store.

There was a time when mailed letters came right to your door, without a lot of junk-mail ads sent out by every store. The mailman knew each house by name and

knew where it was sent; there were not loads of mail addressed to “present occupant.”

There was a time when just one glance was all that it would take, and you would know the kind of car, the model and the make. One time the music that you played whenever you would jive, was from a vinyl, big-holed record called a forty-five.

The record player had a post to keep them all in line, and then the records would drop down and play one at a time. Oh sure, we had our problems then, just like we do today, and always we were

striving, trying for a better way.

Oh, the simple life we lived still seems like so much fun. How can you explain a game, just kick the can and run? And why would boys put baseball cards between bicycle spokes, and for a nickel red machines had little bottled Cokes?

This life seemed so much easier and slower in some ways. I love the new technology but I sure miss those days. So times moves on and so do we, and nothing stays the same, but I sure love to reminisce and walk down memory lane.

11 Critical Home Inspection Traps to be Aware of Weeks Before Listing Your Home for Sale Philadelphia - According to industry experts, there are over 33 physical problems that will come under scrutiny during a home inspection when your home is for sale. A new report has been prepared which identifies the eleven most common of these problems, and what you should know about them before you list your home for sale.

Whether you own an old home or a brand new one, there are a number of things that can fall short of requirements during a home inspection. If not identified and dealt with, any of these 11 items could cost you dearly in

terms of repair. That's why it's critical that you read this report before you list your home. If you wait until the building inspector flags these issues for you, you will almost certainly experience costly delays in the close of your home sale or, worse, turn prospective buyers away altogether. In most cases, you can make a reasonable preinspection yourself if you know what you're looking for, and knowing what you're looking for can help you prevent little problems from growing into costly and unmanageable ones.

To help homesellers deal

with this issue before their homes are listed, a free report entitled "11 Things You Need to Know to Pass Your Home Inspection" has been compiled which explains the issues involved.

To hear a brief recorded message about how to order your FREE copy of this report call toll-free 1-800-805-5106 and enter 1003 . You can call any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Get your free special report NOW to learn how to ensure a home inspection doesn't cost you the sale of your home.
