hen the new Late Show with Stephen Colbert debuted on CBS last week, America at large also met Colbert’s new bandleader, New Orleans jazz wunderkind Jon Batiste. The dynamic young musician danced with unbridled joy as he played his instrument of choice, a rare one for such a high-profile performer: the melodica, a sort of harmonica-accordion hybrid that Philly audiences well know as the signature instrument of local legends The Hooters. That fact made Batiste’s pure, joyous exuberance all the more striking—since that, too, is a hallmark of The Hooters. Which poses the question: What is it about this goofy instrument, usually played by schoolchildren, that leads to such irrepressible happiness? I wrote to Batiste to ask him, and he took a few minutes amid Late Show madness to answer. “The overall sound of the melodica is playful,” he said. “The instrument is also extremely portable, which gives me the opportunity to create joyful interactions with the audience. Although it isn’t really meant to be played as a serious instrument... if you have someone who can create serious music with it, then it doesn’t matter what it was initially intended for.” Batiste is coming to Philly this fall, on Oct. 17, for a full day of family-friendly musical fun that will start alongside students, continue with a public “love riot” on the streets, and conclude with a concert at the Annenberg Center. It’s just one of the hundreds of brilliant cultural happenings going on this season that you’ll find inside this special issue of Philly Weekly, our annual Fall Guide. If you’re a Philly local, you already know just how broad and deep the city’s seasonal calendar runs. If, on the other hand, you’re visiting town for the World Meeting of Families—welcome! We’ll be talking about Pope Francis in our Sept. 23 issue. Meanwhile, settle in, get comfy, and take a gander at everything we’ve got going on. You’re gonna find something you like. n

Audi Feastival BENEFIT

ringe, Fringe, Fringe. Are you nonplussed yet? Keep it together for a couple more pushes, because the wondrous festival rages on this week—and, to top it off, the 2015 Audi Feastival takes place this Thursday, just a couple days before all the avant-garde draws to a close. It’s a massive food and drink party, and all of it benefits FringeArts. Stephen Starr, Michael Solomonov and Audrey Claire Taichman are Feastival’s annual co-hosts, and all of their restaurants churn out li’l mini bites that scream of sophistication and, naturally, culinary might. Starr alone brings the ruckus: Alma de Cuba, Barclay Prime, Buddakan, Butcher & Singer, The Dandelion, El Vez, Fette Sau, Morimoto, Parc, Pizzeria Stella and Pod will be on deck with the fanciest finger foods. Solomonov’s no slouch, with fare from Federal Donuts, Percy Street Barbecue and Zahav.

Naturally, Tachmann’s including her namesake eatery, Audrey Claire, and Twenty Manning Grill. But wait! There’s more: Aldine, Blue Duck BYO, Cheu Noodle Bar, Dizengoff, The Farm at Doe Run, Hungry Pigeon, Junto BYO, Kensington Quarters, La Divisa Meats, Lo Spiedo, Pub & Kitchen, Rival Bros., Taproom on 19th and Whetstone Tavern are ready to serve you delicious h’ors d’oeurves, too. Booze? Yup, that’s covered: Emmanuelle, Twenty Manning Grill, Vintage, Rouge, Twisted Tail, The Olde Bar and FringeArts’ own La Peg Brasserie will get you buzzed. For the fourth year in a row, the event will host Strange Fruit, Aussies who specialize in “sway-pole apparatus” performance. “It’s sort of become a trademark of Feastival,” says Mueller. “It’s so dramatic, so elegant, and you can’t help but look at it and appreciate it for the spectacle that it is.” Then there’s Red 40 & the Last Groovement, FringeArts’ resident

Good eats for great art. band, “slated to bust out disco-inspired originals and sexed-up covers throughout the night,” according to the event’s presser. Bridgman/Packer Dance will roll out “TRUCK,” an installation performance on a 17-foot U-Haul they’ve converted into an art space. And BalletX plans on rehearsing inside the FringeArts theater for some voyeuristic dance distraction. “Feastival helps straddle that balance of people who want to give to starving artists” but who don’t necessarily want to starve alongside them, says Resa Mueller, a point person for Taichman. “We present them with these really cool pieces of art that they won’t have access to in their standard world. It’s a wonderful experience.” —BILL CHENEVERT’

New restaurants this season FALL FOOD BY BRIAN FREEDMAN

ife used to be so much easier for food writers in Philadelphia. All of us, at some point, are asked by our editors to compile a list of the most exciting or otherwise notable openings for the upcoming season. And while our city’s dining culture has been tremendously vibrant for a long time now, the task of collecting the best of them gets harder and harder every year. Lately, in fact, I find myself wracked with guilt every time I attempt to do so: Invariably, inevitably, I’ll sit up with a jolt in the middle of the night and remember that I’ve forgotten one or two, and then, with horror, it will occur to me that it’s long past time for anyone on the editorial staff to make the additions. It’s a good problem to have, of course, this embarrassment of riches. But it poses some serious problems: Where the heck does an exhaustive list start, and with which restaurant should it end? Rather than attempting the impossible, then, I think our best bet is to simply cover the ones that, when I personally hear mention of their names, make me hungry, or thirsty, or both. In that regard, then, we have to start with Kanella South, from Chef Constantinos Pitsillides, possessor of eyes that could bore through sheets of lead

and knife skills like a ninja. His new spot will boast a Cypriot menu, a liquor license and, I’m guessing, a back-log of people waiting to get a table. Across the Mediterranean, from Cyprus to North Africa, we next head to Restaurant Neuf, Chef Joncarl Lachman’s much-anticipated follow-up to his blockbuster success at Noord. In fact, you won’t have to wait long for this one: It’s scheduled to open on the same day that this issue of the Weekly goes to print. Up in Rittenhouse, Susanna Foo and her son, Gabriel, will be opening up SuGa later this autumn. It’s been years since Foo occupied her perch toward the top of the Restaurant Row pyramid, and while her success in Radnor has been welldocumented, her return to her old neighborhood is generating plenty of excitement. I’ve always had a soft spot for the fantastic cooking of Chef Scott Schroeder, and soon, he and Pat O’Malley will be welcoming us all to their much-anticipated Hungry Pigeon, which will offer three meals a day. Jessica Nolen will be rolling out the goods at the Little Bird Bakery and Cafe, which will cause fans of her work at Brauhaus Schmitz—I count myself among them—to rejoice.

28 | Philly Weekly | September 16 -23, 2015 | phillyweekly.com

SpOt Burger’s Josh Kim, of the wildly popular food cart that always seems to be perfuming the air with its ambrosial patties whenever I’m up by Drexel, is opening up a proper storefront in Brewerytown. I plan on wearing elastic-waistbanded jeans for my first visit, and eating as much as I possibly can— and then even more. The list goes on. Tredici, across Sansom Street from the beloved Zavino. Restaurant Ambra, next door to and operated by the somewhat-new owners of Southwark. Urban Farmer, which, from its location on Logan Square, aims to emphasize “sustainable local ingredients and authentic, straightforward preparations” through “relationships with local farms, ranches, fisheries and breweries,” according to their web site. Finally, an anniversary: The Continental is turning 20. Much is justifiably being made of Stephen Starr’s impact on the dining scene and his and our city’s rise to prominence in the national food conversation in light of the big 2-0. And while plenty of great spots open all the time, longevity like this is more than impressive: It’s a testament to the place itself, to the team behind it, and to the city it calls home. It’s something all of us should be proud of. n

The first time I went out to a bar with my parents, I had just turned 21 and was in the middle of my junior year at Penn State. They were up for the weekend, and had instructed me to invite all of my closest (21-and-over) friends: They’d be springing for the first three rounds. The drinks came, and my father said nothing as I ordered, without irony, a chocolate-coffee martini. We all hoisted our glasses—his was shimmering with a gimlet— toasted my recent birthday, and then settled into conversation. “How’s that drink, Bri?” he asked, an odd edge to his voice. “You like that?” “I do,” I said. “It’s like dessert but boozier.” “Well, enjoy it now,” he said with the terrifyingly even tone of a James Bond villain, or of Hannibal Lecter. “Because if you ever order an abomination like that again in front of me, I’ll walk out of the bar and stick you with the bill.” I’m pretty sure he was serious. Back then, in the heart of the era during which far too many so-called signature cocktails were sweet, served in a massive triangular glass and given an -ini suffix, I couldn’t understand what my father’s beef was. Plus, the few proper martinis I had tasted up to that point had been fairly scary affairs, either made with an ancient, dusty bottle of vermouth pulled from the back bar, or in the “bone-dry” style—you know, a cold glass of gin or vodka with a couple of olives plunked into it. I bring this up because vermouth, that formerly most maligned component of the classic bar set-up, is staging something of a comeback. It has, in fact, for a while now. To which I say: Thank goodness. Because vermouth, when chosen carefully, has the ability to add a type of depth to a cocktail that little else can. The next time you’re out with a whiskey-loving friend at one of our city’s best cocktail spots, order two Manhattans, both made with the same whiskey but with different vermouths. You’ll be amazed at how thoroughly un-alike they are. (Personally, I’m partial to Carpano Antica Formula in my Manhattans—I’d drink it with three meals a day if I could afford to—but that’s just me.) White vermouth has been having its day, too. I recently was sent samples of four very different, exquisitely expressive vermouths that I heartily recommend. Carpano Dry Vermouth, with its nutty, spicy and subtly citrus-y aromas, speaks of herbs and licorice on the tongue. I loved it both on its own and when mixed into a martini with Bluecoat Barrel Reserve Gin. I have a feeling that that just may become my go-to drink this autumn. I also loved the Carpano Bianco Vermouth, a sweeter bottling tempered by flavors that reminded me of spice, licorice root and toasted walnut. I was also impressed by La Quintinye Vermouth Royale’s Extra Dry and Blanc bottlings. The former, with its nose of lemon and orange oil zipped up with cinnamon and star anise, was bracing when sipped straight, its flavors reminiscent of fennel seed, cardamom and more. The latter, on the other hand, was sweeter, with its flavors of honey, clove and meringue. Both were very complex, and both would be great in a cocktail or on ice with a splash of seltzer water. My only hope is that our nation’s respect for vermouth continues to grow, so that my children don’t have to be subjected to the drinking indignities that I was in my formative years. With vermouths like these, I’m optimistic about the future. —B.F.

3 THINGS To TASTE ASAP SNACK

Fried cheese curds at Bud & Marilyn’s

Bud & Marilyn’s is on the top of lots of Philadelphians’ must-go lists at the moment. The freshly-opened corner spot from industry titans Marcie Turney and Val Safran draws inspiration from Turney’s grandparents’ own Wisconsin eatery, right down to the drinks. Marilyn’s Old Fashioned has a delightful splash of Sprite in it, a drink she’s said to’ve downed well into her golden years. Beer battered fried cheese curds satisfy that Midwestern appetizer niche with a briny pickled salsa and charred onion ranch. A clear standout are the hot buttered buns, fluffy and perfectly warmed potato-y jawns, filled with chilled lobster, Korean glazed tofu or hot Nashville chicken. We’re kicking ourselves for not trying the chop suey and the shortib stroganoff, but, y’know these gals have staying power, so we’ll be back. Who it’s for: Center City warriors clamoring for the new spot, happy hour experts, homesick Midwesterners, comfort food-seekers.

Drinks & dinner at SouthGate

small t big breowwn s

Talk about an embarrassment of riches: It is impossible to narrow down a single item to recommend at SouthGate, Peter Hwang’s sleek, cozy Korean gastropub on the southern edge of Rittenhouse. From drinks to dessert, absolute excellence prevails. The cocktails ensure that every hour’s happy—especially the korombian sake punch, a potent concoction melting sake, two orange liquors, aguardiente, melon, citron tea, honey and lemon. For real drinkers, there’s the Old Boy, which makes memorable use of Japan’s storied Yamazaki 12 Year single malt whisky. Chef Clara Park’s menu excels on both the appetizer and entree fronts, including shredded pork belly and sweet potato-stuffed steamed buns and KFC (for “Korean fried chicken”) in a choice of sauces. A mingling of traditional-meets-modern fare make up the SouthGate rice bowls and large plates: Their heavily vegged bibimbap, a K-food staple, boasts butter-soft marinated beef and tofu as optional additions. Top everything off with the moist misugaru shortcake, layered with whipped cream and fresh berries, the perfect meal-ender. Who it’s for: Reluctant Tangier diehards, Graduate Hospital-area dog parents, insecure daters looking to make a great impression, East Asian cuisine connoisseurs.

It’s actually a blessing that heads outside of South Philly haven’t yet made Taproom on 19th a recurrent destination spot—that just leaves more room for grateful neighborhood regulars. Chris Speero, the hungry-yethumble 23-year-old making his executive chef debut, won the confidence of Taproom on 19th owner Michael Strauss while the two toiled together in the Amis kitchen. If the Holmesburg-raised Speero’s new Mondo Italiano sandwich is a harbinger of things to come from his fall menu revamp, hold on to your hats. This masterpiece of a meal layers the salty and sweet, hot and cold, hard and soft: slices of prosciuotto, cotto salami, roasted red pepper, ripe tomatoes, sauteed spinach aside seasoned breaded chicken breast, fried to perfection, and melting mozzarella, all on a toasted roll. Speero’s new pasta entree is no slouch either: fresh fluted-edged parpardelle coated in a creamy ragu of marinated seared oxtail. Wash down either with a cold glass of Haters Tears, Pizza Boy’s sour, salt-finished gose, a refreshing brew that doubles nicely as a substitute for the real thing. Who it’s for: Polite couples, bored hipsters with foodie leanings, Sandwich Club officers, nearby residents who want to watch the game.

FIVE BEERS ON TAP

POTENT POPABlES, PART 1

he man with the big hat is coming, and so are a couple million of his friends. In order to help the fateful weekend go by in a blur, for the next two weeks we’re going to be recommending some beers to toast his visit.

Russian River Damnation. The Pope is coming to town, and you know what that means: Somewhere around 1.5 million people or so trying to avoid eternal damnation. Beer lovers know that damnation isn’t a bad thing, though. Or rather, Damnation with a capital “D” isn’t a bad thing, because then we’re talking Russian River. This is a Belgian-style golden ale, existing in the same space as the legendary Duvel. Bananas and pears greet the nose, lightly toasted bread and grassy fields greet the tongue, and pure satisfaction is the result. The subtle taste of fruit, candy and herbs, plus a faintly tart finish, makes this a great beer to drown your “where did all these people come from, and why are they in my city?” woes. Grab some on draft at Barcade, Pitchers Pub, Moriarty’s and other locations.

Avery The Reverend. In the hierarchy

of the Catholic Church, “reverend” is a way to address various ranks, including deacons (“the reverend minister”), bishops (“most reverend”) and priests (just plain “reverend”). All of them, of course, are much lower on the totem pole than the Pope. The beer called The Reverend, on the other hand, is near the top. This is a big honkin’ quad by the folks at Avery, and it’s about as complex as reciting a mass in Latin, backwards. Caramel, plum and raisin flavors exist alongside sweet cherry, orange peel and a red wine-like astringency. Earthy, sweet breads comingle with the taste of dried fruits, while mild spiciness adds layers to the medley. Oh, and it clocks in at a healthy 10 percent ABV. They’ll be tapping this at Monk’s Cafe on Sept. 27 for the Pope-pourri, so go ye and be one of the beer faithful.

DuClaw Sweet Baby Jesus! If you’re going to riff on beers for the Pope’s big visit, this is about as easy a recommendation as they come. The real Jesus preferred fish and wine, but we like to think he’d appreciate a chocolate peanut butter porter, too. If you haven’t had it, the word on the street is true: it tastes like liquefied peanut butter cups. Rich, brown and roasty, the chocolate provides a sweet kiss while the peanut butter jumps to the fore in the finish, reminding you of this beer’s tasty gimmick in every sip. And if that isn’t enough, drink it knowing that the Pope most certainly would not approve of its name. It’s currently on draft at Bourbon & Branch.

Siren / Evil Twin Even More Jesus. If you’re not getting enough Jesus in the days leading up to the Pope’s visit, this collaborative brew from Siren and Evil Twin offers up plenty for you—and at nearly 12 percent ABV, this imperial stout just might have you seeing Jesus after a few glasses, too. Huge notes of rich mocha and bitter coffee run through every sip, and you’ll get hints of licorice, too. There is also a pleasant smokiness that adds a heady quality to the beer. That big alcohol content doesn’t bother to hide, either. Despite this, the body is not as heavy or full as you’d expect, allowing it to slide down your throat as easily as 30 pieces of silver slid into Judas’ hands. See for yourself at the Pope-pourri event at Monk’s Cafe on Sept. 27. Founders Devil Dancer. We think it’s safe to say that one thing

the Pope would not want you to do is dance with the devil—no, not even in the pale moonlight. The fantastic brewers at Founders, on the other hand, encourage it. Hmmm, now which should we listen to? The Pope has a cool bulletproof car, but Founders has this amazing triple IPA that is an intense as that Mel Gibson movie about the crucifixion. Coming in at a robust 12 percent ABV and boasting hops enough for an absurd 112 IBUs, this beer knows no compromise. The full body is rich with thick toffee and caramel flavor, but that sweetness is nicely balanced with gritty, resinous, abrasive hops that have scads of harsh pine and touches of citrus. It’s a wonderfully decadent beer that is well suited for a papal visit. Try some on draft at Garrett Hill Ale House. | ERIC SAN JUAN

Remarkable vocals, sparkly pasties, disability rights, live spanking, good tunes and a solid whip crack: These things are center stage in Anomie Fatale’s unique multimedia show that celebrates the ownership of bodies—bodies not merely of all shapes and sizes, but of all abilities. Anomie’s storytelling combines original music, burlesque, on-screen imagery and spoken word to reveal her former self: Once upon a time, she was a biochemistry student, until her body and life course were changed forever through two diagnoses—Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, a neurological condition with a wide range of disabling, alarming symptoms, and Chiari Malformation, a spinal pathology that compresses the brain stem. As a result, Anomie now relies on a walker, after having her head fused and permanently losing part of her skull through surgery that saved her life. The artist’s powerful, clear voice renders her humorous, laser-sharp observations on disability rights all the more striking. Her performance documents not only the physical struggle of illness, but also the unfurling of her access to the key resources that enable freedom and dignity: money, jobs, education and basic mobility in the world. The show’s narrative drives home the point that it only takes a single symptom, or a single intervention, to produce a cascade of financial and social consequences—and each of these can create multiple prisons in a person’s life. And the possible solutions to these consequences are themselves problematic. For example: If Anomie continued her college studies, what type of job could she physically perform upon graduating—and if she did manage to secure employment, would her wages cover the full cost of her medical needs, including the attendant care she’d need to live independently? Probably not, and the scenario gets worse: The job’s income would prevent her from receiving Social Security assistance for her medical conditions. Musician, Model & Medical Experiment includes not only several live musicians, but also a dance and domination appearance by Stephanie Anders—one of Anomie’s caretakers who introduced her to the world of burlesque, which Anomie credits with providing her both a so-

he last 10 years have been tough ones for Philly filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan. After the late-’90s/ early-aughts trifecta of The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable and Signs marked him (per a Newsweek cover story) as “The Next Spielberg,” he ran aground with 2004’s The Village, and things only got rougher from there. After his blockbuster-sized After Earth, starring fellow hometown star Will Smith, so universally disappointed both crowds and critics two years ago, it’s understandable that the writer-director would return to the kind of small-scale chiller-thriller that paid so many critical and commercial dividends for him early on. Unfortunately, The Visit isn’t so much a bold reconquest of Shyamalan’s wheelhouse as it is a reminder of just how far in the distance those glory days are. The Visit marks the director’s entry into the “found-footage horror” sweepstakes, again revolving around his propensity for taking seemingly benign scenarios and slowly revealing a seedy, possibly supernatural underbelly. In this case, that scenario is youngsters Becca and Tyler (Olivia DeJonge, Ed Oxenbould) going on a long-distance trip to spend a week with the grandparents they’ve never met (Deanna Dunagan, Peter McRobbie). While things seem Norman Rockwell enough at first, it isn’t long before the frayed edges start to show. Something is “off,” and we’re in the passenger seat alongside Becca and Tyler as they try to solve the mystery. In the early goings, Shyamalan does a pretty good job of drawing us in, displaying a noticeably lighter touch as we get to know our young leads, as well as setting up the film’s central conceit of Becca making a documentary about their trip (thus allowing for the whole found-footage thing). The kids are both likable and engaging, displaying an easy chemistry and kinship with each other. Further, and without giving anything away, the dawning realization that things aren’t entirely right with Nana and Pop-Pop is paced in a way that the build-up to the reveal feels worth it. It’s a pretty decent twist, too, that we won’t spoil here. Now, we’ve seen countless found-footage flicks since The Blair Witch Project arrived in 1999 (mere weeks before The Sixth Sense, actually). Some have managed to pull it off more successfully than

others—Chronicle and Cloverfield come to mind among the better examples—but I’ve yet to see even one example of the genre that can get past the inherent artifice of the format. That is to say, the notion that no matter how stressful or terrifying a situation might be, our characters still manage to keep their camera rolling and capture the footage that comprises the narrative. For all of his confidence with the form, this is a trick not even Shyamalan can manage. Also, for as much as The Sixth Sense indelibly shackled him to his reputation as “Twist Ending Guy”—something that’s really only the case for about half of his output—based on what happens in The Visit, he doesn’t seem to be in much of a hurry to divest himself entirely of that rep either. Although, rather than at the end, the big reveal here arrives around twothirds of the way in, so maybe that kind of qualifies as a twist itself. But once the secret is out, there’s really nowhere interesting to go from there. And so we sit, biding our time as the story winds down. Unlike The Sixth Sense or Unbreakable, both of which are legitimately good movies capped off by brilliant final-act swerves, The Visit’s structure is such that its only reason to exist is that swerve— after which we have the rest of the film to work backwards and see all the ways it doesn’t particularly hold up to scrutiny. When I reviewed Shyamalan’s After Earth, I noted that “at just over 90 minutes, it doesn’t really stick around long enough to become actively offensive.” The same sentiment applies here. The very best thing about The Visit is that it’s a brief one. n

TIMAREE’S BODY

by Timaree Schmit @timaree-leigh

Swap before you shop Throwing a clothing swap is a fun way to save money while assembling your fall outfits.

he only thing that eclipses my disgust for shopping is my proficiency at it. I’m like a teenager put into gymnastics at age two who burned out young and now wishes she played guitar instead. I’m the best at locating deals and comparing qualities and quantities to cost—but I dislike buying things. There’s actual nausea involved. It’s painful to part with money that took so long to acquire; my tiny apartment quickly feels claustrophobic with new inventory; and being a part of wasteful consumer culture makes me feel like I’m in the prequel to Wall-E. Yet, as a person, I need stuff to do things. And while the button-sewing skills I picked up in 4-H are decent, there’s no way I can make my own clothes. Good news, though: There’s a solution. Even better: It involves drinking with my friends. During WWII, people coped with the rationing of fabric and metal in various ways. New fibers were invented; new fashion trends that required fewer supplies were popularized. It also became more acceptable for middle-class women to wear outfits that had been previously owned. Schools and churches organized events where outgrown children’s clothes could be swapped by families. Eventually, swap culture expanded to adult items, too. Later, in the 1980s, Americans became more cognizant of consumerism’s effect on the environment, started combatting CFCs and making recycling a normal thing. Women also needed more business clothes as they entered the workforce in bigger numbers. So, once again, some of them got together to trade. This clothes-swapping phenomenon continued to gain steam with the DIY, upcycling and sustainability trends of recent decades, and the tradition lives on today. But instead of swapping hand-knit pullover sweaters in the Knights of Columbus hall, we’re drinking Mangoritas and yelling to each other across the living room: “It’s a size 6 from H&M! I wore it once on a Tinder date, and it looks weird on me because my boobs are so floppy. You wanna try it on? Ok, here. Catch.” Clothing swaps combine several of my favorite activities: hanging out with friends, meeting new ones, removing articles of clothing in public, recycling, daytime drinking, clearing out my closet, telling people their bodies are awesome, getting stuff for free, eating an entire party tray of pretzels and systematically

organizing large collections of things. Obviously, I think they’re great—and you should try one yourself. So how do you get started on holding a clothing swap of your own?

HEADS UP, Y’ALL. Announce, at least three or four weeks in advance, that you’re holding a swap. Give your friends time to go through their stuff—otherwise, it’ll be the saddest White Elephant party anybody ever held. INVITE SMART, BUT FRIENDLY. Consider the combination of people who’d be there. All bodies are awesome and sexy, but not all bodies can share the same clothes, and everyone needs different stuff, so make sure a wide variety of people are included. Wildly divergent budgets may lead to uncomfortable feelings about participation, so make it clear it’s not required to bring or take anything to join the party. Specifically niched clothing swaps are an option, too: for big girls, athletes, corporate types, etc. Between scheduling difficulties and the fact this party requires homework, only a small percent can usually make it to a swap, so be generous with the invites.

HAVE A GAME PLAN. How will you manage the actual swap process? It may make sense to have a bunch of tables that people can explore on their own, possibly organized by clothing type. This can feel more structured, but also impersonal. Another option is having everyone congregate while people each hold up an item, describe it and toss it to whomever expresses interest. More than one person should be showing stuff at a time. Extroverts will love this method, but some folks will be overwhelmed by the chaos. Know your audience. Consider doing the shout-and-throw, followed by the tabling style. AFTERMATH. Donate the leftovers to someplace like Philly AIDS Thrift, and prepare for the next swap in a few months, when the season changes again. When you’re out wearing that awesome dress you acquired in the swap, and someone comments on how cute it is, give props to the original owner. It’s like giving a shout out to the musicians you sample! And tell them you got it at a swap, because everyone needs in on this secret. Hey: If enough of us do it, it’s a movement. n

A son’s open marriage

y son, who is almost 30 years old, was married four years ago. He just shared with us that for the last three years, he and his wife have been practicing polyamory. They are committed to their relationship but have each had relationships with both men and women. We are trying to get our heads around this, as we come from a more traditional background (we’ve been married 40 years in a loving and respectful relationship), and we find ourselves feeling very sad. We are accepting and nonjudgmental, just trying to understand how he came to this decision. He feels that to make love “finite,” to love only one person, is “not being true,” and that their kind of relationship prevents dishonesty and is based on truth. He shared that his wife was the first one to broach this idea—and after many deep conversations, he eventually overcame his jealousy and is embracing this practice. They do not have children or plan to have children. I asked my son if he’s happy, and he says he is. —Sad Mama If your son says he’s happy, SM, you should believe him and be happy for him. It’s unfortunate that your son framed the news about his choices and his marriage—which make him happy—in what sounds like a clumsy critique of your choices and your marriage. (If that’s what he did, SM. I’ve only got your characterization of his comments to go on, not a tape recording of them, and it has been my experience that monogamous folks sometimes hear critiques of their choices when we nonmonogamous folks talk about our own choices. “We’re not doing what you’re doing” ≠ “You’re doing it wrong.”) There’s nothing necessarily “finite,” untruthful, limiting, or dishonest about monogamy. If that’s what two people want, SM, and it makes those two people happy, that’s great. Monogamy is what you and your husband wanted, it’s what made you and your husband happy, and it worked for your marriage. You could see your son’s choice to be nonmonogamous as a rejection of everything you modeled for him, or you could see his choice as modeled on the fundamental bedrock stuff— for lack of a better word—that informed the choice you made. Your son and his wife are doing what they want, they’re doing what makes them happy, and they’re doing what works for their marriage. They’re not doing monogamy (or kids), but they’re doing what’s right for them and what works for them—just like his mom and dad did. There are lots of people out there in happy, fulfilling open/poly relationships,

SM, and lots of people out there in happy, fulfilling monogamous relationships. (And there are lots of miserable people in both kinds of relationships.) There are also lots of people in happy, fulfilling monogamous relationships they will one day choose to open, and lots of people in happy, fulfilling nonmonogamous relationships they will one day choose to close. It’s happiness, consent, and mutual respect that matters, not whether a relationship is monogamous or nonmonogamous. If your son is happy, SM, you should be happy for him. But if he states—or clumsily implies—that you and his dad couldn’t be happy because you’re not doing the same thing he and his wife are doing, you tell him from nonmonogamous me that he’s full of nonmonogamous shit. Two pieces of recommended reading: the book Open: Love, Sex, and Life in an Open Marriage by Jenny Block, and an informative interview poly activist and frequent Savage Lovecast guest Diana Adams did with the Atlantic. But I don’t think you need to do a whole lot of homework about this. Love your son, respect his choices, don’t blame or shame his wife, and be kind to any partners they introduce you to. Having a poly kid is a lot simpler than you think. Many years ago, what was for me a bizarre sexual incident happened to me. I was off on a golf weekend with a bunch of über-hetero buddies. We stayed in a condo that didn’t have enough beds for everyone, so I ended up sharing a bed with an ex-marine. In the middle of the night, I thought my girlfriend was waking me up with a blowjob, and a damn fine one at that. However, as I gradually became awake, I realized the mouth on my penis wasn’t my girlfriend’s. I called this guy’s name, and—this is the interesting part—he sprang up suddenly, like I just woke him up. He jumped out of bed, went into the bathroom, and gargled before coming back into bed. Neither of us said a word afterward about what happened. So the question is: Can you fellate in your sleep? Can you sleep-blow and still be a straight guy? —Blown Latently One Wild Night Sexsomnia is a real thing—sleepwalking plus sex—but it’s an exceedingly rare thing. Closeted guys are a lot more common, BLOWN, and guys who seem über-hetero are often more successfully closeted than your lighter-in-the-loafer guys. n

Annual Public Notice of Special Education Services and Programs, Services for Gifted Students, and Services for Protected Handicapped Students NOTICE TO PARENTS

According to state and federal special education regulations, annual public notice to parents of children who reside within a school district is required regarding The Philadelphia Public Schools and the Philadelphia Intermediate Unit (IU26) provide special education and related services to resident children with disabilities who are ages three through twenty-one. The purpose of this notice is to describe (1) the types of disabilities that might qualify the child for such programs and services, (2) the special education program and related services that are available, (3) the process by which the public schools screen and evaluate such students to determine eligibility, and (4) the special rights that pertain to such children and their parents or legal guardians.

CHILDREN SERVED IN SPECIAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS

Special education services are available to children who have one or more of the following physical or mental disabilities: • autism • deaf/blindness • emotional disturbance • hearing impairment, including deafness • mental retardation • multiple disabilities • orthopedic impairment • other health impairment • specific learning disability • speech or language impairment • traumatic brain injury; and • visual impairment, including blindness • developmental delay (in the case of a preschool child)

DESCRIPTION OF SPECIAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS

The Public Schools/IU26 provide appropriate special education programs and related services that are: • provided at no cost to parents; • provided under the authority of a school entity, directly, by referral or by contract; • individualized to meet the educational needs of the child; • reasonably calculated to yield meaningful educational benefit and progress and designed to conform to an Individual Education Program. Special education is designed to meet the needs of each eligible student, including specifically designed instruction conducted in the classroom, home, community settings, hospitals, institutions and other settings. Related services available to students include transportation, corrective and other supportive services that help an eligible student benefit from special education. Examples include: speech pathology and audiology, psychological services, physical and occupational therapy, social work services, school health services, medical services for diagnosis or evaluation, parent counseling and education, recreation counseling services, rehabilitation counseling services and assistive technology services.

REFERRAL OF CHILDREN FORSCREENING AND EVALUATION

The Public Schools/IU26 has procedures to identify children needing special education. Those procedures are “screening” and “evaluation.” If a disability is suspected, teachers, other school personnel or parents may refer a child for screening and/or evaluation. Parents suspecting that a child may have a disability and need special education can request a screening or evaluation at any time by contacting their school principal. Screening activities include: reviewing immediately available data sources such as health records, parent interview and history; functional vision and hearing evaluations; determining the student’s response to attempted remediation; and speech and language screenings are completed on request. If the screening leads to a recommendation for evaluation, the evaluation team will conduct the evaluations. No evaluations may be conducted without written parental permission. Consult your school counselor for further information. State and federal law affords many rights and protections to children with disabilities and their parents. A summary of these rights and protections follows. Interested persons may obtain a complete written summary of the rights and protections afforded by the law, together with information about free or low cost legal services and advice, by contacting the special education coordinator or principal of the local public school.

RIGHTS AND PROTECTIONS

Prior Written Notice: The public school must notify you in writing whenever it proposes to initiate or to change the identification, evaluation, educational program or placement of a child or whenever it refuses to initiate or make a change in identification, evaluation, educational program, or placement requested by a parent. Such notice must be accompanied by a written description of the reasons for the proposal or refusal, the options considered, if any, and the reason why such options were rejected. Consent: The public school cannot proceed with an evaluation or with the initial provision of special education and related services without the written consent of the parent. A public school may not seek a hearing to override the refusal of a parental consent to an initial placement in special education. A public school may override the lack of consent for an initial evaluation by requesting the approval of an impartial hearing officer or judge following a hearing. If the parent fails to respond to a written request for permission to revaluate, however, the public school may proceed with the proposed revaluation without consent. Protection In Evaluation Procedure: Evaluations to determine eligibility and current need for special education and related services must be administered in a manner that is free of racial, cultural, or linguistic bias. Evaluations cannot consist of a single test or assessment and testing must be a valid measure of the psychological, social, emotional or other learning characteristic or behavior that the school is using it to measure. Testing and assessment must be administered in accordance with professional standards and the criteria established by the publisher. It must be administered in the native language of the child. Confidentiality: The records and documents that are part of the evaluation and screening process are confidential and protected under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). School districts, intermediate units, and charter schools maintain records concerning all children enrolled in the school, including students with disabilities. All records are maintained in the strictest confidentiality. Your consent, or consent of an eligible child who has reached the age of majority under State law, must be obtained before personally identifiable information is released, except as permitted under FERPA. The age of majority in Pennsylvania is 21. Each participating agency must protect the confidentiality of personally identifiable information at collection, storage, disclosure, and destruction stages. One official at each participating agency must assume responsibility for ensuring the confidentiality of any personally identifiable information. Each participating agency must maintain, for public inspection, a current listing of the names and positions of those employees who have access to personally identifiable information. For additional information related to student records, the parent can refer to FERPA. 40 | Philly Weekly | September 16 -23, 2015 | phillyweekly.com

For preschool age children (ages 3-5), information, screenings and evaluations requested, may be obtained by contacting Elwyn SEEDS at 215-222-8054.
