THURSDAY, JANUARY 7, 1993 THE PHILADELPHIA DAILY NEWS PAGE NE-5 Dessert at Cafe Michelangelo? That's rich! Name another pizzeria with bocce courts Desserts: They have a lot of really good stuff for the sweet tooth. The Italian chocolate ice cream ($1.95) was much sweeter and creamier than we're used to. An order here is two pretty large scoops, which could easily be split My wife tried the rutta lunga a light white cake covered with various fruits and a unique glaze. If I go back, I promised myself (hope my doctor's not listening) the chocolate chip can- noli. They looked absolutely luscious.

Espresso to go with them too Price range: Nothing really over $10. The desserts are a bit pricey, but worth it. All things considered, very reasonable. Credit cards: Sorry. Pack cash.

Liquor license: None, but you're invited to bring your own wine or beer. Parting shots: We went on a recommendation, and were relatively satisfied. The pizza alone will surely bring us back. Mike Kern fresh homemade bread. The spaghetti with spicy red sauce and tuna ($7.95) yes, tuna was, if nothing else, different.

But if you don't like tuna, stick to something more conventional. Veal in white cream sauce with prosciutto ham and mushrooms ($9.95) was a tad tough. Still, it was appetizing. The chicken escarole soup ($1.95 for a bowl) was way above normal. Children's menu: None, but they will offer the young ones anything off the regular menu with reduced portions at reduced prices.

My two opted for the pizza. The fact that they ate five slices between them leads me to believe it's the right choice here. Family fun factors: Two outdoor bocce courts and outdoor tables, and an indoor court and big-screen TV in the downstairs banquet area, if you're there for a party. The staff goes out of its way to make the little ones feel right at home. Service: Excellent.

Type of food: Italian, plus sand- wiches. Address: 11901 Bustleton a few blocks south of By berry Road. 698-CAFE. General ambiance: Casually intimate. You can have a quiet dinner for two, or take the kids.

High points of the menu: The brick-oven pizza ($5, small; $10, large) was about as tasty as we've ever sampled. The crust was thick and crispy but not burnt, and the sauce and cheese were memorable. Our only regret is that we didn't get one of the many exotic offerings or maybe that's just a good excuse for a return trip. We found the steak sandwich which was served on a nice half-loaf of pita-like bread, to be a bit on the stringy side. But try the French fries delicious and plentiful.

We also had all three of the daily specials, with mixed reactions. Scallops in a creamy red sauce covered with black olives and capers ($7.95) was very good. Like all the entrees, it came with a nice side salad and plenty of Stopping abuse before it starts Colorado professor's book focuses on Inoculating' children Street Finder Can you find the names of the 16 by Karen Abbott Northeast streets hidden in this grid? Clark Germania Mower Rachel Dale James Placid Shisler Elmore Kohl Plaza St. Vicent Gelena Leon Prince Tyson the concept of sexual abuse and what to do about it. "Assuming that they can recognize it," she said, "they're very reluctant to tattle on someone." In place of "good touch, bad touch" programs, which confuse some children, her program focuses on "No and Go Tell," teaching children how to say no, if possible, and if not, how to report the abuse.

Such programs are ineffective, however, if there's no one to report to or if the report goes unpursued. "What good does it do to tell if the adults don't help?" Wurtele asks. Her book explores the ways professionals, parents and interested bystanders can share the responsibility. Although estimates vary widely, most researchers agree that about 22 percent of all women and 7 percent of men say they were sexually abused as children. Much of Wurtele's work has been on reducing those figures by educating the children to identify abuse and protect themselves.

A big step is "inoculating" children against abuse. She has worked with 3- to 7-year-olds, introducing Scripps Howard News Service Preventing Child Sexual Abuse By Sandy Wurtele and Cindy Miller-Perrin. University of Nebraska Press. $30. Unless people do something, sexual abuse of children isn't going to stop.

The problem is deciding what to do. Sandy Wurtele, a psychology professor at the University of Colorado-Colorado Springs, has some Resist the boss's call of the wild by Yvonne Fournier TDALEPIX0RY YB11CLA-R SHISII1A0C 0GI1HAU.IQ NLED0.K0H.-LA iivijc.illl WMGEB MANLA Ji 0jlLACDMM JWAJiLiMOiLiL Hi P.R1NCIS aIc hIeIlIoIbIz fVK.zmmtwwmB mm iy is i Scripps Howard News Service Dear Dr. Fournier: My company wants us to go on a wilderness activity to help each other literally jump hurdles, climb mountains and do all kinds of things. I hate doing all of this, but it's mandatory. It seems to be the "in" thing.

They call it learning teamwork. Is there any good to this? Assessment: The workplace is for work, to be carried out with working, professional relationships. Unfortunately, as a society gone crazy with the need to "feel good," we are quick to get on the bandwagon of "touchy-feely" experiences, ready to tear down the appropriate barriers of private space. The idea that I must actually climb a tree to be a creative problem-solver is way out on a limb for me. Taking risks and cooperating for problem-solving in the wilderness is supposed to make you capable of doing all this at work.

Unfortunately, this process confuses cooperation with collaboration, and it assumes unjustifiably that lessons learned in the wilderness will translate into creativity that is valuable to the workplace. The simple assumption that creativity and risk-taking lead to valuable innovation leaves out too many Students in Math-a-Thon raise money for hospital You'll get a kick from these games by Chip Jonathan Carter Special to the Daily News It's time for football! We've seen 20, 30 bowl games, and the NFL is in the middle of its playoffs. What's that you say? It's not enough? We thought you might feel that way. John Madden Football '93 For Genesis Super NES $65 The best just keeps getting better. This is the third annual edition of JMF.

The game play hasn't changed much since the first one and that's good news. Version three gives you the most precise control of your players yet. John Madden 1 was the best football game we'd ever played until '92 came out And now JM '93 eclipses even that Each new version keeps what was great about last year's model while making a few refinements. For instance, the '93 play book includes a "stop the clock" play (like in the NFL) and a no-huddle offense. players butt heads or taunt a downed ball carrier after a big play just like their obnoxious real-life counterparts.

But the biggest news is the expanded roster of teams. You still get all the current pro teams, and they still perform in video based on the way they really play. And you get an All-Madden team featuring the best players of today. But you can also take control of 10 of the greatest teams in NFL history, like the 1985 Bears and the 72 Dolphins. A special playoff series matches these teams in the most incredible show- down ever.

You can take on the computer in regular season or playoff games by yourself or with a friend, or you can go head to head with another player. For our money, sports games don't get any better. RATING: Big Kid (over 12) 10; Mid-Kid (7 to 12) 10; Kid (under 7) 6 Joe Montana Football 3 For Genesis $60 Last year, this series made a splash by becoming one of the first games to offer audio play-by-play. This version has pretty much worked out the bugs in that technology meaning the announcer's no longer telling you about that last touchdown run as you're kicking off afterward. The action in Joe Montana moves east to west, but you can change that point of view.

Want a south-to-north view from behind the quarterback? (That's the view you get in John Madden.) No problem. You can check things out from the defense's perspective, too even switch to an overhead "blimp" shot. The control in Joe Montana isn't quite as precise as in John Madden, and the action's a little less freewheeling. But it's a solid football game that'll keep you informed about what's happening on the field. RATING: BK MK 9, 6 NFL Football For Lynx $40 We've been waiting a long time for a football game for this color hand-held.

Looks as if we're going to have to keep waiting. NFL Football gets off on the right foot, with all pro teams represented and a pretty decent playbook, but after that, it's strictly an incomplete pass. The game control is simply nonexistent Running backs can't spin, dive or straight-arm.

Farryn Oslon, an eighth-grader at Louis Farrell School, was a first-place branch winner and a second-place winner citywide in the Mellon Bank essay contest. Her topic was: "What Advice Would I Give My Friends About Staying Away from Drugs and Alcohol?" At the schools Students from Anne Frank School presented a chess exhibition in November. Gifted pupils in grades two through five participated, as did Dr. Gerald M.

Levitt, father of Anne Frank student Aaron Levitt. Dr. Levitt did battle with 10 students in the 70-minute challenge, with fifth-grader Philip Gershovich and third-grejder Martin Angert making it to fii- finals. Hurricane help The students of Mayfair School conducted a special service project to help students at the Avocado School in Homestead, whose homes and property were destroyed by Hurricane Andrew. The students assembled "book packets," into which they placed a book, pencils, pens, markers, erasers and other school supplies.

This project was coordinated by Joan Rosenblatt, reading teacher. Grants awarded Grant Middle School received a $15,000 grant to implement its proposal, "Raising Student Achievement by Integrating Computers into the Research Process." The proposal writers were Jennifer Fedorchak, Sandra Horowitz and John Caviston. The Northeast Region's six middle schools were awarded an Eisenhower Mathematics and Science Mini-Grant for integrating the calculator 4pto the classroom. The schools are Baldi, Harding, LaBrum, Meehan, Rush and Wilson. Artistic kids Eric Ortiz, Grade 4, Ziegler School, and Biana Tsepenyuk, Grade 6, Baldi Middle School, are winners of the "What Thanksgiving Means to Me" art contest sponsored by Captain Noah, WPVI-TV (Channel 6), the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Division of Art Education.

Each received a scholarship to the Philadelphia Museum of Art's Saturday Art classes and a savings bond. Fox Chase School fifth-graders Jamie Jones and Jackie Schnur and fourth-grader Diane Ives had their drawings published by the Daily Nf.ws to highlight the paper's See SCHOOLS Next Page space in the work force is extremely important. New employees usually enter a job with an overriding emotion loneliness, intensified by fear of failure. This motivates a search for new "friends" at work, leading to confiding fears, intimate problems and other personal information in order to demonstrate "friendship." Just as there is a difference between cooperation and collaboration, there is a vast difference between personal friendships and professional acquaintances. In a professional environment, we should not be expected to confide personal information that eventually leads to resentment, embarrassment and a loss of pride.

Regrettably, many companies disregard the difference between professional and personal activity when a wilderness trip becomes mandatory. If you are not comfortable with this program but feel compelled to participate, dare to take risks and set your own ground rules that respect personal space. You have a right to establish the relationship you want with peers. You alone must determine which barriers you want to tear down and how far into your personal space you choose for them to go. The workplace is no place for intimacy.

Professional relationships can foster collaboration, problem-solving, creativity and risk-taking in the work force. Pushing a friend over a hurdle has little to do with clearing the hurdles that you encounter in the workplace.
