State Rep. Brown Discovers Her Indian Roots

by Eldon Graham It started with stories she heard at a young age. State Rep. Vanessa Lowery Brown (D-W. Phila.) learned about her family’s Native American heritage.

Brown, a member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives since 2009, had an awakening to her indigenous past through tales told by her grandmother. The stories were accompanied by pictures that hung on the wall of her grandmother’s home.

Hearing these stories gave Brown the necessary drive to find out more about her family and where they come from. “I went on ancestry.com to see what I could find about my family history,” she said. But she initially found no answers there for the many questions she had.

Brown had a strong desire to find out what tribe she stemmed from and did not give up. After watching an advertisement on television from ancestry.com, she learned more records had been found and put on the website. “More leaves

With the UNIONS Pennsylvania AFL-CIO President Rick Bloomingdale and Secretary-Treasurer Frank Snyder have urged Gov. Tom Wolf to veto HB 874, an anti-union measure approved by the Pennsylvania House on a concurrence vote 107-91. This bill represses constitutionally protected activities during strikes and during union organizing efforts, they argue.

But the Governor signed the legislation removing exemptions for certain crimes if they occur in a labor dispute, handing conservatives and business groups a decisive legislative victor. He struck a blow to that key political ally.

Unions strongly opposed the legislation as it moved through the GOP-controlled legislature

this session and in prior sessions.

Throughout the process, the bill was opposed by most Democrats and a handful of union-backed Republican legislators. “I believe it is important to allow men and women to come together and have their voices heard,” Wolf said in a statement. “I also believe any form of harassment by employees or employers is unacceptable.”

Bloomingdale stated, “HB 874 is legislative overreach backed by conservative groups such as ALEC, the State Chamber, and billionaires who are trying to stop workers from forming unions or exercising their right to strike for decent wages, benefits and safe jobs. There are

as “mulatto” if their skin color was lighter; if it was darker they list themselves as “Black.” This could lead to misrepresentation, and confuse some people as they struggle to find out more about their familial roots.

Brown points out the reality that not all people of African descent came to the United States as slaves. “Some African Americans came to the United States through Ellis Island,” she said. This is a very personal story for Brown, one she hopes to tell once more information come to light. “There are millions of African Americans who don’t know who they are and that needs to stop,” Brown said.

She believes there should be a new branch of government dedicated to ancestry. “I think it is my right … it is my story, she said. I want my records back I want to know who I am. You can’t put a price on history.”

Brown’s interest in her indigenous roots has allowed her to openly participate in a number of Native American traditions held in the Philadelphia

area. One of Brown’s links to her Native American heritage was the creation of a regalia – distinctive clothing worn and ornaments carried at formal occasions as an indication of status.

She also held her own Native American celebration event in the first week of October to honor the traditions of the ancestors. The celebration was called Indigenous Peoples Day Powwow. The event hosted a wide arrange of activities and entertainment, including music from Native American musicians/singers, hand drumming and social dances.

In years past, a powwow was held at Belmont Mansion in Fairmount Park as a weeklong ceremonial. Before that event was discontinued, those who participated would stay at Belmont Mansion for a period of one week. Brown’s powwows are being staged in Clara Muhammad Park or Clara Muhammad School in West Philadelphia.

Brown hopes the process she has gone through will help others who are searching for their roots.

Governor Signs Bill Over Labor Protests already criminal laws that protect both employees and employers from criminal acts and behavior. This bill is so badly written that it opens the door to manipulations by either side during employer disputes, which will result in criminal prosecution of constitutionally

protected activities. It is another example of a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist.”

Pennsylvania AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Frank Snyder stated, “Instead of silencing our voices, they should be raising our voices and passing legislation that

raises wages, creates good jobs and expands our middle class. These so-called ‘special state laws for labor unions’ are, in fact, a protection for employers that they now hope to use as a weapon against workers in their effort to organize.”

Refugees Get Thanksgiving Dinner Back for the seventh year, Refugee Thanksgiving will take place Sunday, Nov. 22, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. at Old Pine Community Center (401 Lombard Street). It will be an engaging afternoon of food, music, and dance, and a chance for people from all over the world, from Ukraine, to Sudan, to Bhutan, to share in the spirit of Thanksgiving, many for the first time.

The Refugee Thanksgiving

dinner has been steadily growing since HIAS Pennsylvania began the tradition. Last year’s dinner featured refugees exhibiting traditional music and dance while sharing their first Thanksgiving meal. BurmeseNepali children showed how they are keeping traditional music and dance alive in their new home.

This year, attendance is expected to top 200 people with a variety of acts, including both a

Burmese and a Nepali dance group, a dance group from University of the Sciences called Culture Shock, and so much more.

Pa. House Races Start Brewing In Philly;

by Joe Shaheeli Center City’s 182nd Legislative Dist. is now the center of an intriguing upheaval in a State House seat that turned over dramatically three years ago, when Brian Sims knocked off 28-year veteran State Rep. Babette Josephs as he ran to become the first openly gay legislator in Pennsylvania history.

This week, two candidates emerged to seek Sims’ job in the May 2016 Democratic primary.

Marni Snyder is a criminaldefense attorney with additional deep background in educational and disability law.

She formerly worked for the illustrious Judge Carolyn Engel Temin, now retired, who co-authored the Pennsylvania Benchbook for Criminal Proceedings. Her launch party was Nov. 9 at the Ethical Humanist Society. She is well known in the Center City legal community.

The next night it was Marisa Piccarreto’s turn at

1518 Sansom Street. Piccarreto, who is active in Logan Square community groups, runs a small business providing maternity services. A mother with three young children, she, like incumbent Sims, is a member of the LGBT community.

Both women stress education and children’s needs in their campaigns; both vow to fight for a fairer and less-punitive criminal-justice system.

Both women’s events were well attended.

The 182nd takes in Center City west of Broad Street, plus the Gayborhood and the Bella Vista section of South Philadelphia. It has the highest concentration of LGBT residents in Pennsylvania – as well as the most affluent highrises, where traditional grassroots door-knocking is harder than rock-climbing in practice.

Sims has drawn national attention for his 2012 victory. A vigorous spokesman for LGBT causes, he quickly

Always Hard At Work for You!

plunged into statewide politics when he backed a losing insurgent for a Pittsburgh State Rep seat in 2014 even as he fended off Josephs in a rematch.

Sims has announced he will seek the nomination for the 2nd Congressional Dist., now held by Congressman Chaka Fattah (D-Phila.), in the 2016.

He did not respond to repeated inquiries as to whether he intends also to stand for reelection to the State House of Representatives.

Asked what each could bring to the job that their district isn’t getting now, Piccarreto said, “You can’t always focus just on your own agenda in politics. You have to build alliances and work with other people to get things done. This is a skill I bring to the table.”

“The 182nd Dist. deserves a full-time Representative who’s willing and able to put Philadelphia first,” said Snyder.

Other State House races started to pop up across the city. In the 200th Dist. of Chestnut Hill and Mount Airy, State Rep. Cherelle Parker (D-Northwest) will be moving into City Council in the New Year, leaving a tempting office in Harrisburg empty. Democrats in the politically active, high-turnout Northwest are starting to Councilman

knock on this door.

First out is Chris Rabb, a writer and consultant who teaches at Temple University’s Fox School of Business, who launched at Alma Mater Nov. 10. He earned a Yale bachelor’s and a Penn master’s.

One of the more-promising races for Republicans coming up in 2016 is Jim Pio’s run for State Representative in the 172nd Dist. in Northeast Philly and Montgomery County.

Although Jim is a challenger rather than an incumbent, this could be a winnable seat for any Republican. The seat was held for several decades by Republican John Perzel. While it has a Democratic registration edge, that margin is one of the smallest in the city. Its incumbent State Rep. Kevin Boyle (D-Northeast) is a hard worker, but may be distracted by a potential challenge to State Sen. John Sabatina, Jr. (D-Northeast).

Regardless of these circumstances, Jim Pio is a great candidate. He is young and engaging. He is already running a boots-on-the-ground campaign.

Republican 66th Ward Leader Eddie Stine announced on Facebook he is running for State Rep in the 173rd Dist. against incumbent State Rep. Mike Driscoll (D-Northeast).

His telephone is not accepting calls. Immediately afterward, he announced he was stepping down as ward leader.

cumbent State Rep. Margo Davidson (D-Delaware).

Davidson drew severe opposition from the teachers’ union in the 2014 cycle because of her support for school vouchers. Coles’ early entry into the race indicates public-school supporters have neither forgiven nor forgotten.

McGinty Adds Support For US Senate Campaign Katie McGinty has secured yet another labor endorsement. The United Food & Commercial Workers Union Local 1776 is backing McGinty’s campaign for US Senate.

“Katie is the candidate running for US Senate that stands out when it comes to understanding and addressing the needs of hard-working people,” said Local 1776 leader Wendell Young. “She has played an important role in Gov. Wolf’s Administration and will bring significant knowledge and experience to the US Senate. Katie stands with us shoulder to shoulder on important issues like increasing the minimum wage and protecting the right of workers to join a union.”

Local 1776 represents 21,000 workers throughout the Philadelphia area.

“I am honored to have the support of UFCW Local 1776,” McGinty said. “My top priority will be fighting for policies like increasing the minimum wage and expanding access to affordable education and job training. Sen. Pat (Cont. Next Page)

Rep. Driscoll continues to widen the support he already has in his legislative district, opening offices and making sure constituents can reach him.

Ross Feinberg, who recently challenged Register of Wills Ron Donatucci, will soon be making a public announcement for the 174th Dist. Just across the city line in Delaware County, Upper Darby Township Councilwoman Sekela Coles has announced her campaign for the Pennsylvania House of Representatives in the 164th Legislative Dist. in the Democratic primary.

In 2013, Coles became the first African American woman elected to the 7th Dist. in Upper Darby Township Council. For the past two years, she has worked toward building strong, positive relationships with her constituents. After Pennsylvania Gov.-Elect Tom Wolf’s 2014 election, Coles was selected to serve on his Transition Committee as a member of the Drugs & Alcohol Programs team.

With a bachelor’s degree in finance & banking from Lincoln University, an MBA from Penn State University and a PhD from Walden University, Coles plans to make increased opportunity and growth for all of the district’s families the focus of her campaign.

Republican Party of Pennsylvania Chairman Rob Gleason echoed other Republican leaders when he said 16th Dist. Congressman Joe Pitts’ (R-Lancaster) decision not to seek reelection in 2016 would create a vacuum.

He stated, “Congressman Joe Pitts is an incredible dean of the huge Pennsylvania Republican delegation. A former teacher, retired Air Force captain and former State Representative, Joe Pitts has dedicated his life to serving his communities, his country, and his world. On behalf of the Republican Party of Pennsylvania, I congratulate Congressman Joe Pitts on his storied career.”

Pitts has represented the 16th Dist. since 1997, so the question now becomes: With Pitts gone, do the Democrats

Martin is considered to be a possible GOP competitor although he has not made his intentions known.

The Democrats, though, already have a candidate in Christina Hartman.

Dems Almost Had Clean Sweep, But For… Election-day results marked

by Democratic sweep of statewide judicial contests. In a stunning sweep, Democrats claimed all statewide judicial offices, ending the most-expensive State Supreme Court race in national history and tilting the balance of the sevenseat State Supreme Court for most of the next decade. Additionally, Democrats won statewide races for a seat each on the 15-member Superior Court and the nine-member Commonwealth Court.

Republicans may have taken it on the chin statewide, but the GOP was able to retake the 37th State Senatorial Dist. in a special election, increasing the Senate GOP Caucus’ majority to 31 seats with the election of Guy Reschenthaler to the suburban Al-

legheny County district.

Who’s Ahead Nationally, Carson Or Trump?

Full disclosure first: John Zogby says he is a pollster first, then a pundit.

“The former role is collecting and analyzing data mainly from Zogby Polls. The latter is my role as an older guy who has taught American history and political science for 24 years and has been around a very long time. Sometimes the two roles see things differently,” Zogby explained.

With that said, a new Zogby Analytics Poll, conducted among 344 likely Republican primary and caucus voters nationwide, shows developer Donald Trump leading his nearest opponent, neurologist Dr. Ben Carson by 13 points – 30% to 17% — with Florida Sen. Marco Rubio in third place at 10%, closely followed by Texas Sen. Ted Cruz with 8% and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush with 7%. Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul shows up with 4% and all other candidates are 2% or below.

Braddock, Pa. Mayor John Fetterman’s senatorial campaign released the first video in a web series that will tell the stories of Braddock. The video, “4Kids,” highlights Genyah and her mom, Shiane.

Genyah is a student in Braddock’s early-childhood education program, 4Kids.

Each video will highlight a policy or program that has contributed to Braddock’s renewal.

“There is a tremendous income gap, and in many cases that income gap predicts that there is going to be a tremendous education gap. But when you have a program like 4Kids that closes that gap, that strikes an important blow against inequality in this country,” said Fetterman. “This shouldn’t be a matter of ideol-

ogy or conservative or liberal.

It should be that every child in this country deserves to start out with a basic, equal footing in terms of how they transition to the rest of their academic life, and I really do believe it should be a national standard of what every child in this country deserves as a minimum.”

have a chance at the seat?

At first glance the answer would appear to be no. Pitts survived the Democratic wave elections of 2006 and 2008 rather easily (he won by 56.6%-39.6% and 55.8%39.4% margins respectively).

Pitts’ lowest percentage came in 2012 when he pulled in 55%.

He won’t be on the ballot this time, however, and this Dutch Country district has become more competitive when it comes to presidential elections. After heavily supporting George W. Bush in 2004 (61% to 38%), the 2008 (51% to 48%) and 2012 (52.4% to 46.3%) elections were much closer even with McCain and Romney both prevailing. Both Lancaster and Reading Cities have seen major growth of Hispanics in recent years, along with the Route 1 “Mushroom Corridor” in agricultural Chester County.

Pollsters predict a possible Democratic victory for this seat.

With the GOP in control of both chambers and looking to get even with high-spending Democrats, even the Governor may have to sign this bill into law if it gets passed by the General Assembly.

Your Honor, Philadelphia is at a turning point: the decisions we make in the next four years will shape the next 40.

Fixing our finances, spurring economic development, and strengthening our communities go hand in hand. Indeed, this is a time of great opportunity for Philadelphia to take bold action: • To address the structural deficits in the City’s budget and lay the foundation for a financially healthy and vibrant city • To build our economy – and the jobs, educational attainment, and opportunities of our residents • To find new ways to support communities and help them prosper • To strengthen our competitiveness in the region and in the world. We need to create an economic climate that draws businesses to invest and build here, a system of highperforming neighborhood schools that keep families in the city, and safe, stable communities where residents have access to good jobs and lifelong careers. Success will be measured by asking whether all of our communities are thriving.

Together, under your leadership, we will bring our city to new heights.

It was obvious to political stakeholders and readers of this paper, election turnout would be low. We were surprised when it spiked up to a 26% voter participation. We thought for sure it would go no higher than 23%.

We based that assumption on the fact the various signposts we use all alluded to it. Absentee ballots were one of those and the applications to vote that way were low. \There was also the belief most of us shared Jim Kenney was a shoo-in for Mayor. He proved it with a decisive primary win to take the Democratic colors into the general.

That belief was underlined during the period between the primary and general election by the many events to which Kenney was invited, staged by prestigious groups representing business, labor, and education. He was their keynote attraction. The voting public saw those activities reported in print and on television.

So, what is a normal Philadelphia voter to do? Especially the vast majority who do not make it a point to vote in every election unless dutifully reminded with a knock on the door or the ringing of the doorbell or a telephone call they should do so “before 8 p.m.”

We say all this because we are surprised Mayor Michael Nutter saw fit to blame the County Commissioners for the poor turnout.

He should have praised them for their efforts in making well over 1,860 polling places open and staffed. Machine malfunctions were at a historic minimal low. Confusion at the polls created by both major party committee people fighting over minority inspectors was also minimal.

In addition, the returns were quickly retrieved and reported dutifully to the public in real time on the Commissioners website.

In the period between the primary and general elections, the board reset all the machines, staying abreast of any ballot changes. It conducted classes for the election-board members of every election precinct. It offered voting machines readily to community groups who wanted to educate their followers on how to properly record their votes. People going to the registration division never walked away without having questions. Candidates loved the reception they received and the freely given information they needed.

So the Mayor’s blaming them for not doing more to make voters do what they should does not make any sense. He is a ward leader and he knows good committee people bring out their voters in substantial numbers, regardless of an election’s dullness and in the most inclement of weathers. When a division’s turnout is poor, blame the committee people’s ward leader who should have canvassed each of his or divisions almost hourly, cracking the whip to increase turnout, and during the day send in other door-knockers to do the job.

Mr. Mayor, the blame is with you as a ward leader. How was your ward’s voter turnout and how did it compare with other wards in this city?

If the electoral machinery is placed in the hands of the Mayor’s Office as you suggest, this move will destroy one of the finest election operations in this state.

I am almost at the point where I feel sorry for AG KATHLEEN KANE. Almost!

Earlier this week a bipartisan Pennsylvania State Senate committee comprised of three Democrats and three Republicans commenced hearings this week on whether Kane should be removed from office. GOV. TOM WOLF has already made it clear he wants her out of office. I believe if the committee decides to recommend Kane’s removal (as it probably will), the full Senate will go along. Being removed under the terms the Senate Committee is looking at, in my opinion, is less harsh than an impeachment. Kane has challenged the authority of this committee to review her. She said the only valid way to remove her is through impeachment. If she is not careful, she may get what she asks for.

Good judgment has not been Kane’s strong suit over the past three years. She also this week had to respond to JUDGE JOHN CLELAND, the judge in the Sandusky case, who wanted to know what proof she had that the grand-jury judge on the case had leaked non-public information. When she was asked in person by Cleland to produce the evidence, she said she did not have any proof.

The Democrats want the Kane embarrassment gone.

While Republicans politically may want her to continue to create problems for the Democrats, many Republicans like me would like to see a functioning AG’s office. Last week it was reported the bad morale in the AG’s office had escalated to revolt. Apparently 1ST DEPUTY ATTORNEY (Cont. Page 25)

The small tribe of us that make up the Philadelphia media is about to get a whole lot smaller, thanks to the Philadelphia Media Network’s decision to lay off 46 people from the Philadelphia Inquirer, Philadelphia Daily News and Philly.com.

The layoffs broke down like this: 12 folks were dismissed from the Inquirer, 17 from the Daily News and 17 from Philly.com. The axe was wielded in the name of consolidating the newsrooms, something that almost always means that folks are going to get screwed.

I understand that you want to take your double-digit profits from 11% to 20% (I’m guessing), and cutting people, and the salaries and benefits that go with them, makes that happen on some level. But some of these cuts make absolutely no sense at all.

For example, among the casualties was the entire Daily News copy desk. While the copy desk is best known for writing those pithy, borderline politically incorrect headlines that make the Daily News the textbook definition of “tabloid”, they also do things like make sure words are spelled right, stories don’t have the kinds of gaping holes in them that lead to their not making any sense, and they keep the typos to a minimum.

Since the layoffs were announced, the typo thing is already starting to happen. I don’t know how big of a desk the Inky has, but since it’s being asked to basically edit two newspapers, some stuff is going to get missed.

(Cont. Page 25)

Yo! Here we go again with this from Ed. B. Words gone as fast as the buggy whip! Sad, really!

The other day, a not-so-elderly lady (65) said something to her son about driving a jalopy and he looked at her quizzically and said, “What the heck is a jalopy?” OMG (new phrase), he never heard of the word jalopy! I hope you are hunky dory after you read this and chuckle.

Some of these phrases included: Don’t touch that dial, carbon copy, you sound like a broken record and hung out to dry.

Back in the olden days we had a lot of moxie. We’d put on our best bib and tucker and straighten up and fly right. Hubba-hubba! We’d cut a rug in some juke joint and then go necking and petting and smooching and spooning and billing and cooing and pitching woo in hotrods and jalopies in some passion pit or lovers’ lane. Heavens to Betsy! Gee whillikers!

Jumping Jehoshaphat! Holy moly! We were in like Flynn and living the life of Riley, and even a regular guy couldn’t accuse us of being a knucklehead, a nincompoop or a pill. Not for all the tea in China!

Back in the olden days, life used to be swell, but when’s the last time anything was swell? “Swell” has gone the way of beehives, pageboys and the D.A.; of spats, knickers, fedoras, poodle skirts, saddle shoes and pedal pushers. Oh, my aching back! Kilroy was here, but he isn’t anymore.

Like Washington Irving’s Rip Van Winkle and Kurt Vonnegut’s Billy Pilgrim, we have become unstuck in time. We wake up from what surely has been just a short nap, and before we can say, “I’ll be a monkey’s uncle!” or “This is a fine kettle of fish!” we discover that the words we grew up with, the words that seemed omnipresent as oxygen, have vanished with scarcely a notice from our tongues and our pens and our keyboards. Poof, poof, poof go the words of our youth, the words we’ve left behind. We blink, and they’re gone, like Mickey Mouse wristwatches, hula hoops, skate keys, candy cigarettes, little wax bottles of colored sugar water and an organ-grinder’s monkey.

Long time ago: Pshaw. The milkman did it. Think about the starving Armenians. Bigger (Cont. Page 25)

The first-ever Veterans Day parade in Philadelphia was a huge success.

CONGRESSMAN BOB BRADY was the key backer of the parade and helped bring it to fruition. But the real heroes of the event are the men and women who have served our country so bravely, our veterans.

COUNCIL MEMBERS JANNIE BLACKWELL and CURTIS JONES were on the dais along with COUNCIL PRESIDENT DARRELL CLARKE, MAYOR MICHAEL NUTTER and LT. GOV. MIKE STACK. Also on hand was incoming Republican COUNCILMAN AL TAUBENBERGER, COUNCILMAN BOB HENON, CONGRESSMAN CHAKA FATTAH and STATE REP. ED NEILSON. Newly elected MAYOR-TO-BE JIM KENNEY watched the parade as a bystander and shook hands with well-wishers.

Kenney appeared extremely relaxed as he looks forward to becoming Philadelphia’s next chief executive.

JUDGE PAT DUGAN presided over many master-of-ceremonies duties. Dugan is a major in the army reserves. Also on hand was DISTRICT ATTORNEY SETH WILLIAMS, also a major in the National Guard. MASTER SGT. MATT GIACOBBE helped organize many of the parade marchers as did MAJ. HARRY GOBORA. Seen shaking hands and greeting well-wishers was JUDGE KEVIN DOUGHERTY, who will soon be Justice Kevin Dougherty. He was elected to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court in a sweeping Democratic victory this past (Cont. Page 26)

The City’s first-ever VETERAN’S PARADE exceeded all expectations, with thousands of attendees and marchers. Congressman Bob BRADY deserves great credit for obtaining the funding from Gerry LENFEST, whose wise remarks from the parade podium proved brevity is wit.... Erin AVERLAUND was a super parade supporter in her PR work. Judge Pat DUGAN and Vietnam Memorial Prexy Terry WILLIAMSON were top announcers of each unit. While on ABC, Maj. Gens. Wesley CRAIG and Walter LORD narrated.

Seamus BONNER is doing God’s work helping our vets as a Disabled American Veterans National Service Officer. BRAVO SIERRA!... The 1st Judicial Dist. came out to support vets.

Judges Dan McCAFFERY and Charles ERLICH, and Sonte REAVIS, Esq. – THANK YOU.!

The General Election results were a SLAP IN THE FACE to Neo-Conservative posts. GOP voters did not vote in huge numbers and many stayed home... In Philly, Judges Ken POWELL, Michael FANNING, Stephanie SAWYER and Abbe FLETMAN powered to victory. JudgesELECT Kai SCOTT, Tracy ROMAN, Mia PEREZ, Lyris YOUNGE, Rainey PAPADEMETRIOU, Scott DiCLAUDIO, Daine GREY and Chris MALLIOS deservedly will join them in Common Pleas Court! GREAT news for Municipal Court is voters elected Sharon LOSIER, Christine HOPE, and Joffie PITTMAN. Anthony CLARK, and Lisa DEELEY worked hard for the City Commissioner post. Bruz Jewell WILLIAMS was rightfully re-elected as Sheriff. While living legend Ron DONATUCCI was heartily returned as Register of Wills, David OH and Al TAUBENBERGER will be assets in City Council for job creation...

City Council Committee on Public Property & Public Works will hold hearings on Comcast’s proposed 15-year franchise agreement with the City of Philadelphia. The public is invited to voice opinions and suggestions.

The agreement will give Comcast access to the public right of ways so it may offer cable-TV services. The City may be asking for the agreement to include discounts for senior citizens, better service, expanded discounted internet, an end to skyrocketing price hikes and a better way to resolve billing disputes. It will also include funding for publicaccess stations and may help fund computer-literacy programs.

That’s why the hearings will run today from 5 to 8 p.m. in City Hall Room 400.

by Michael A. Cibik, Esq. American Bankruptcy Board Certified Question: Will bankruptcy kill a zombie deed?

Answer: A “zombie deed” is a piece of real estate that you

thought was gone, foreclosed, lost forever and no longer yours; but to your dismay, you find you still own the property long after you thought it was gone.

For example, you know

you have missed mortgage payments and you know your mortgage lender would not give you the mortgage modification that you thought would help you save your home.

Foreclosure has started and you have moved from the home to beat the court marshals from forcibly moving you out. You may have also filed bankruptcy to discharge the obligation of the mortgage debt and avoid the possibility of any deficiency judgment making you responsible for the difference between the value of the home and the debt.

But none of this helps you until the title to the house leaves your name and goes to the bank. That means the foreclosure action has completed and the property has been auctioned or a Surrender of Real Estate in bankruptcy has been recorded on the land records where the property is located.

There have been a number of cases where the bank had changed direction after starting a foreclosure and stopped just short of completion. The homeowners never find out about it because they have left the property in anticipation of

the foreclosure.

But the bank has decided it has too many houses in inventory, or the home isn’t worth the cost of pursuing it, or there are title problems caused by improper paperwork. With over 5 million foreclosures in the last three years, these things happen. Or in other cases, the homeowners have filed bankruptcy and thought that the bankruptcy discharged somehow. While bankruptcy does discharge the debt, it does not remove the lien from the property or act to transfer title.

The consequences of a zom-

bie deed mean you remain responsible for the priority-taxes and homeowner-association charges. You remain responsible for the condition of the property which may cause a nuisance for trash, overgrown vegetation, or vandalism.

Worse yet, if someone gets hurt on that property, you could be sued for the injuries; all when you thought it was long gone. In short, do not assume you have taken care of everything by walking away from your home.

(Cont. From Page 10)

ELEPHANT (Cont. From Page 10) GENERAL BRUCE BEEMER wrote an officewide memo condemning Kane for the inappropriate release of information including leaks of Common Pleas COURT JUDGE BARRY FEUDALE’S emails. Feudale was the grand-jury judge in the Sandusky case she initially accused of leaking information to the press and having inappropriate communications with former AG prosecutor

OUT & ABOUT

FRANK FINA. Beemer’s memorandum was signed by Executive DEPUTY ATTORNEYS GENERAL JAMES A. DONAHUE III, ROBERT A. MULLE and LAWRENCE CHERBA. This memo follows months of rumors of Kane witch-hunts in the office to identify staff who testified against her, spoke to prosecutors or the press.

Last Thursday, Committeeman JIM PIO formally announced his campaign to run for State Representative (Dist.

172) at the Austrian Village in

Jenkintown. The district includes parts of Northeast Philadelphia and Montgomery County. This seat was held for years by former Speaker of the House JOHN PERZEL and is winnable for a Republican. Democrat STATE REP. KEVIN BOYLE currently holds the seat, but it is rumored he intends to run for the Pennsylvania Senate seat held by JOHN SABATINA. Sabatina won a special election in May to this seat formally held by LT. GOV. MIKE STACK. Sabatina did not face a primary, as is common practice in a special election where the candidate is selected by the ward leaders.

Boyle and his brother CONGRESSMAN BRENDAN BOYLE are not always loved by their fellow Democrats. If Boyle prevails in the Senate primary, it will be easier for Pio to win.

Sabatina may want his old State Rep seat back (Dist.

174), but he has a problem now in that the seat is held by ED NEILSON, who is very popular in the Northeast. Neilson had decided (at the behest of the Democratic Party) not to run for this seat in 2014 and to seek (in a special election) the City Council seat vacated

by BILL GREEN. Neilson had been until 2014 the State Rep for Dist. 169, which was then redistricted to York County. After redistricting, he lived in the 174th where Sabatina was the incumbent.

As Neilson is now the incumbent, I doubt he will be gracious in the event Sabatina loses the Senate seat.

Last week, ROSS FEINBERG informally announced he is seeking the Republican nomination to run for the State House in the 174th. Feinberg was the Republican candidate for Register of Wills on Nov. 3 and unfortunately lost to incumbent Democrat RON DONATUCCI.

half of the staff of your digital product?

Don’t answer that. It’ll just make your head hurt.

The Newspaper Guild offered to buy the Daily News, a paper whose staff was already so small that I’m surprised that they found 17 people to lay off, from owner Gerry Lenfest, but that offer was met with a resounding no.

(I’m starting to think the way that Lenfest treats the Daily News is a bit like how the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania treats the School District of Philadelphia … like a bad fouryear-old who’s found a toy he likes to throw up against the wall, but won’t let anyone else play with.) Right now, there’s a petition going around to get the folks at PMN to reconsider the layoffs (or at the very least selling the Daily News), but I don’t think it’s going to work.

(Cont. From Page 10) The other set of layoffs that made no sense were the ones at Philly.com.

One of the things everyone in the news business has been talking about is the impact digital technology has had on newsrooms. You have news organizations making sure their writers can handle a video camera and a tape recorder as well as they can handle a pen and a pad. There are longtime inkstained wretches who circle the dates of the Online News Association convention on their calendars.

So, knowing that the business is trending toward digital, and knowing that in order to do digital reporting, you need, well, digital journalists, does it make sense to cut a little over

SUCCESSFUL ELECTION CONSULTANTS included Micah MAHJOUBIAN, Joseph RUSSO, John SABATINA, Sr. and Peter WILSON. I heard nothing on ElectionDay arrests by the DA’s TASK FORCE, so I am again right that party actives are HONEST at work during the 13-hour election day!... And Montgomery County went DEMOCRAT! Superb candidates all.

I might now halt my drive for a Kangaroo Statue up there (?).

Over ONE MILLION VOTERS chose placed their CONFIDENCE in Democrats for the State SUPREME COURT. Kevin DOUGHERTY, David WECHT, and Christine DONOHUE will restore hope

A SHAME newspaper bosses rejected a request to consider sale of the city’s major tabloid. The Guild and Local 16 could do a better job.

We would get more HAPPY NEWS....

Nearby, the DAILY GLOOM AND DOOM stuff about Kathleen Kane continues. The writers do not seem to write for our reading (?). So many are tired of the daily na-na-na-na-na.

Do they write to impress?

Does someone encourage it?

With many of their endorsed candidates not winning – is anyone paying attention, like in years past? In fairness, it cannot be easy to come up with a Kane story each day.

Of course, if news is held back to accomplish this, then that would be bad; but eh, maybe not. To help out with Kane stories, I propose headlines: “KANE GETS UP FROM DESK, GETS CUP OF COFFEE – WHY?” Or: “Kane Opens Her Office Door.” Or: “Kane Seen In Supermarket.” Hope these help.

As for Chip FATTAH. The stories seem almost an extension of government to me.

The Feds trotted out ARMANI SUITS. Ever see how some FED prosecutors dress – it ain’t from Goodwill. How about their coiffured hair? Not from the $6 shop (Maybe $66). And the FED who testified he leaked the raid to the press (golly, does that happen?). Will he be disciplined or sent to SENSITIVITY TRAINING?
