The Michael Strange Memorial Mural UnveiledLocal Hero Is Eternally Honored by
His Neighborhood and Familyby Jeff Kilpatrick
Many people know Michael Strange’s story. People from all over the world know Michael as a Navy Cryptologist who served with the prestigious and elite SEAL Team 6. They know that Michael was one of thirty Ameri-cans killed in action in a helicopter crash on August 6, 2011 in Afghanistan. There is no doubt that Michael is an American hero who gave everything defending his country. That story continues, as Strange’s family is working to shed light on the cir-cumstances surrounding their son’s death and the deaths of all others killed in the crash. Many are skeptical that the black box from the crash was never found, and that the rescue mission was unnecessary in the first place. This is the heart wrenching part of Michael’s story, and it is far from over. People still have a lot of unanswered questions. However, there is another story to be told – a brighter side of Michael’s story. Residents from Fishtown, Port Richmond, and other Philadelphia neighbor-hoods know Michael as a kid from the block. They know Michael as a son, a friend, a student of North

Catholic. Michael’s per-sonality and heart made him stand out long before he joined the Navy. On Saturday, June 7 (the day after what would have been Michael’s 28th birth-day), people from all over
gathered to remember Michael for all that he was. First, a memorial mass was said at Holy Name of Jesus Church in Fishtown. Afterwards, a memorial mural for Michael Strange was officially unveiled in
Port Richmond at the corner of Belgrade and Clearfield on the wall of Celtic Shirts, a local t-shirt shop owned by the Fenerty family. Father Neil Kilty, who taught for de-cades at North Catholic,
started the ceremony with a few words about Mike’s sacrifice and an opening prayer. The street was lined with veterans from the Warrior Brotherhood Mo-torcycle Club. Neighbors, firefighters, police, and
politicians crowded the block as they waited for the curtain in front of the mural to drop. The mural was paint-ed by Zack Bird of Bird Studio (www.birdstudio.com). Zack studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and Studio Incamminati. His work can be seen throughout the U.S., London, and Latin America. Bird donated his time working on the Michael Strange mural. In reference to donating his time, Zack said it was a “no-brainer”, since Mi-chael gave the ultimate sacrifice. Zack said he spent a great deal of time study-ing Michael Strange’s face, meditating on that sacrifice. Bird worked from a picture of Michael looking back over his shoulder, eyebrows raised, with a smile that seemed both lighthearted and maybe even a little mischievous. The photo referenced was Michael’s mother’s favorite. Bird was recruited for the project by Michael Han-son, Sr. Hanson is a Port Richmond resident and Archbishop Ryan alum (although he donned a North Catholic shirt on Saturday). Hanson intro-duced each speaker at the mural unveiling ceremony,
“The red and white and starry blueIs freedom’s shield and hope.”~John Philip Sousa

Advice. Making the case for an older, time-tested parenting style
Are old-fashioned parenting tips the secret to domestic bliss? GETTY IMAGES
Endless pressure to check off items on a lengthy list of short-term goals is the hallmark of modern par-enting. Therefore, it has to go — we need to go retro. Retro parenting doesn’t refer to the trend of opting out of the workforce and going strictly domestic; it means standing firm against modern parent-ing pressure without the reassurance of immediate results.
This is no easy task when it feels like you’re risking your kid’s entire future if he or she fails to score 100 percent on a spelling test or misses a ballet class. Moms need to resolve to think in the long term and resist the clamor to pile more activities into kids’ schedules. Resolve to ignore the disapprov-ing raised eyebrow when someone learns you give your kids chores rather than flash card drills.
Because a sense of humor helps when go-ing against the status
quo, check out “The Three Martini Playdate.” Although the book’s tone is tongue-in-cheek, it offers advice for parents to teach children practical skills actually required for adult-hood, such as manners, cooperation, chores and, in keeping with the title, cocktail-making for adults.
The original retro-parenting work, “The Hurried Child” is also a worthwhile read. Among other things, David Elkind counseled against the full schedules of enrichment activities that parents push on their children to build up their college applica-tion résumés. A résumé of boutique experiences probably doesn’t teach the child much about real life and likely fails to impress these days anyway.
Constant accomplish-ment-reaching can make us feel like successful par-ents, but these books show you how to slow down and parent with substance. LESLIE LOFTIS

Because how-tos help, check out “Under Pressure” or “The New Six Point Plan for Raising Happy, Healthy Children.” These books build on the foundation that we need to let kids own their successes and failures. The fi rst book mostly explains the research, and the second is loaded with practical advice.
Nazareth Hospital O-FISH-ALLY Honors Patients at Annual Cancer Survivors’ Day Event
More than 80 cancer survivors and their guests attended Nazareth Hospital’s fish-themed National Cancer Survivors’ Day event titled, “It’s O-FISH-AL!: You’re a Survivor,” on Sunday, June 1.
Current and former cancer patients reunited with their doctors, nurses and other caregivers for National Cancer Survivors’ Day held at Nazareth Hospital on Sunday, June 1. More than 80 cancer survivors and their guests attended fish-themed event titled, “It’s O-FISH-AL!: You’re a Survivor.” During the event, survivors were presented with T-shirts and other gifts to celebrate their feat. During the program, attendees heard from cancer survivor Jennifer Fitzgerald, who shared her personal story about fighting and beating chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Nazareth Hospital’s Cancer Survivors Day committee, chaired by Cancer Nurse Navigator Terrie Cannon, BSN, RN, OCN; and Chief Radiation Technologist Candy McLaughlin, has hosted the event for more than 18 years. Nazareth Hospital, a member of the Jefferson Kimmel Cancer Net-work, offers patients with cancer leading-edge diagnostics such as digital mammography, medical oncology, image-guided radiation therapy and infusion services. Nazareth Hospital recently opened a new outpatient infusion suite that features larger infusion bays and a private room, all in a peaceful, soothing environment. National Cancer Survivors Day is an annual worldwide celebration of life. Participants unite in this event to show the world that life after a cancer diagnosis can be a reality. Nazareth was one of many care providers across the country and around the world hosting a celebration.

Save St. Laurentius Eventat SugarHouse Casino
Not so long ago, one of the best things somebody with an inquiring mind could do was listen to NPR, especially Terry Gross’ award winning show, Fresh Air. As a sec-ond best listening alterna-tive, one could also listen to NPR’s Radio Times with Marty-Moss Coane.Then was then and now is now, as they say. In the not-so-recent past, Fresh Air was noted for its interviews with mental heavyweights like Susan Sontag, Molly Ivins, Chris-topher Hitchens, Hilary Clinton, Richard Clarke, and Al Franken. This was when the typical Fresh Air guest was often the type of person overlooked by the mainstream media. But listening to Fresh Air today, one is struck by the preponderance of cable TV star guests, often vapid twenty or thirty-something actors from obscure but popular cable TV shows. A sampling of recent Fresh Air guests, for instance, includes a young, well known actor (“The elusive
actor tells Fresh Air about his new film”), a Broadway actor not known to the gen-eral public but advertised as a guest “from the Broadway stage,” and finally a visit by Seth Meyers who “talks about leaving Saturday Night Live.” Add to this list Fresh Air’s repeated series of interviews with Judd Apatow, one of the direc-tors of the once esoterically popular cable show, ‘Freaks and Geeks,’ which had its final run in 2000, and you might ask: Is Terry Gross now serving a commercial purpose by seeming to sup-port the careers of certain actors? (Apatow’s films tend to focus on uppity self entitled twenty-something nerds who always get the beautiful girl. Apatow’s obsessive Hollywood theme was cited by some critics as a possible influence on the uppity, self entitled killer, Elliot Rodger). Fresh Air’s actor and ac-tress guest stars are pre-sented to us as if they are known far and wide when the truth is that they are only known to people who are chronic cable TV watchers. Radio Times, on
the other hand, seems to have taken up where Fresh Air has left off. Guests on Radio Times were originally locally based politicians, authors, activ-ists, etc., while Fresh Air’s guests were predominately notables with national reputations. When Radio Times ditched the local angle and began book-ing guests like Salman Rushdie, Maurice Sendak, Christopher Hitchens and Billie Jean King, it seemed at times to surpass Fresh Air in seriousness except when Gross’ replacement, Dave Davies, was put in charge. Under Davies’ direction, Fresh Air’s men-tal heavyweight guests return like a South Pacific tsunami. This leads me to wonder: Has Fresh Air become a sort of pale imitation of Entertainment Tonight? It’s not unreasonable to ask such a question espe-cially when so many of Gross’ guests are actors and actresses who seem to do nothing but advertise their latest film project. What’s happened to the Terry Gross of old? Has she turned into a cable TV couch potato? Most people would agree that there’s nothing more banal than listening to an actor talk about taking on a new role for this or that director. While an actor may excel in a role, there may be not much shine when it comes to “off stage” intelligence. Granted, some interviews with authentic Hollywood legends can be fun, but they become senseless drivel when the subject is a 23 year old experiencing their first movie or theatri-cal success, compounded by the fact that they might also be talking in… baby up-talk. What is baby up-talk? Baby up-talk is when the sentences that come out of the speaker’s mouth have an upward tilt or inflec-tion as if the speaker was intentionally raising the conversational pitch way above what’s considered to be a normal speaking range. We’ve all heard somebody engaged in this odd way of talking, whether it’s a person on Septa, standing in line, or talking on their cell phone. Listening to this speak-
ing style becomes an even stranger experience when those same high pitched sentences ascend higher and higher on the tonal scale—much like an out of control hot air balloon-- and then seem to end with
a blatant question mark. Didn’t they used to call this Valley Girl talk? I got a big dose of baby up-talk when, not all that long ago, the son of a former colleague of mine was being interviewed on Radio Times. The son, whom I’ll call Z, was being interviewed along with a local filmmaker who had completed a film on the life of the son’s famous mother. While I had had several conversations with my former colleague’s son in years past, I had never known him to speak in baby up-talk, but here he was on Radio Times pushing every declarative
sentence into those high tonal regions (where hot air balloons go), and then end-ing every sentence with big, fat question mark. What, in the name of God, had happened to him? As the show progressed, I won-dered whether speaking this way was a requirement in order to be a guest on Radio Times. Had baby up-talk-- like tattoos, piercings, beards, fedora hats, tight plaid shirts and skinny jeans-- become yet another ad-dition to the list of cool things that cool people felt obligated to adopt?

Michael Hanson, Jr. speaks about his connection with Mike Strange.
including his son, Michal Hanson, Jr. Mike Junior was stationed in the same region of Afghanistan as Michael Strange at a dif-ferent time. Hanson never met him. However, he at-tested to what a dangerous region it was, and called Strange a brother. He went on to explain that all mem-bers of all branches of the military are brothers. Several other people spoke at the ceremony, including Congressman Bob Brady, State Rep-resentative John Taylor,
and 6th District Council-man Bobby Henon. Brady called Michael Strange an
“Ultimate Warrior” and swore he would continue to look for answers surround-
ing his death. He also made a promise to fight for top-notch healthcare for all vet-erans returning from war. Henon asked attendees to tell their children about Michael when they pass by the mural, saying, “Tell your kids to talk about his commitment and what he did for his country.” By all accounts, Michael Strange was a generous and fun-loving young man who never lost his sense of humor, in spite of liv-ing and working in Af-ghanistan- one of the most hostile environments on the planet. All who knew Michael said that he always stuck up for the underdog. At the ceremony, a couple of his friends spoke about Michael Strange. Joe, who knew him since he was
in diapers, read a letter that Strange wrote when he was two weeks into boot camp. In the letter, Strange wrote about an anthrax scare that turned out to be Altoid mints in an envelope. You could hear Michael’s sense of humor through his words. His buddy Joe concluded by saying, “There’s not a day that goes by that he’s not missed by so many.” I r e m e m b e r M i k e Strange as a student at North Catholic. I never taught him, but his senior year was my first year teaching at the school. I remember him in the hall-ways. He had a reputation as a prankster, but teachers loved him. His science teacher, Peggy Schweikert-Ka-valkovich recalled, “He was always trying to make you laugh to get you off track in class. Someone gave me his 8th grade picture, and I attached it to a ruler. When he would start, I had the rule: Mike can only talk when the Mike stick is up. Needless to say, one day the picture was taped up so high that I couldn’t reach it. So Mike said it meant he had all period to talk!” Peggy still has that photo. Nancy Caldwell worked in the administrative of-fices at North Catholic for
many years. She stated, “I remember the day Michael came back to North after he officially became a Navy Seal. He was so proud that he was beaming, and we were all so proud of him.” Michael’s father, Charlie Strange, told stories of his son’s off-the-wall pranks, but he also spoke about his growth as a man. “Michael achieved things better than I could have ever believed,” his father said with great pride. Charlie also spoke about Mike’s pride in his city, stating, “This country was built from Philadelphia and the people in this city…and now Michael got a piece of that.” Before the ceremony’s conclusion of bagpipes and bugle, Michael Strange’s Aunt Maggie came to the podium. “Michael was born in Philadelphia,” Maggie said, “He died in Afghanistan. He’s buried in Arlington, but his spirit and heart will always be here in Philadelphia.” If you drive by the Mi-chael Strange memorial mural, see if you can find a parking spot and pull over. It is a beautiful tribute - truly something to see up close. To learn more about Michael and his legacy, you can visit his foundation page: www.michaelstrange-foundation.org.•

Garrison’s Grocery has chosen the name Liberty for the name of our loyalty card because it is the first word in American consciousness. It was first made to mean something here in America. Liberty achieved independence and it made a nation. It was the word with which the American colonies electrified the world. It had been a dream despaired of elsewhere. Here it was realized. The soldiers of Rochambeau and the sailors of De Grasse and the soldiers of Burgoyne and Cornwallis went back to Europe to tell that Liberty was a fact in a new land and people everywhere have been freer since that day. This nation owes its existence to the desire for Liberty and it will maintain itself by that desire. So we chose Liberty for the name of the new loyalty card, Liberty because it is the last thing the true American possesses even if he is stripped of everything else.
Liberty is the innate, inherent principle of American life.

CLEAN PLATE: Mango Yogurt Popsicles
Casey Ann is a local foodie and blogger.
Check out her recipes and reviews at
www.cleanpl8.com
by Casey Ann Beck
Pregnancy has been one of the greatest ex-periences I’ve had and, truthfully, I’ve never felt better. Aside from a de-crease in energy level and the occasional swollen ankles, mine has been smooth and uneventful. The most entertaining part has been the com-pilation of comments I receive: “You look like you could go tomorrow!” (I hope not! I still have 7 weeks left!); “You must be ready for it to be over.” (Not really – I’m one of those “happy pregnant ladies.”); and, finally, “Are you sure there’s not two in there?” (Yes, absolutely positive.) As you can see, most of my responses are short and to the point. There is one question, though, that garners an extensive conversation: “What are you craving?” Food is my favorite topic and, even when I am not pregnant, I’m never really crav-ing just one thing. Since the beginning, I’ve been
eating a lot of the same stuff I was before, while incorporating more dairy into my diet. I haven’t yet sent my husband on a late-night expedition for something specific, though I can’t think of any specific food desire he hasn’t indulged in with me. Overall, I guess you could say I’m craving everything. The only specific thing that comes to mind is fresh fruit, frozen treats, and the combination of the two together. Perhaps it’s because a majority of my pregnancy was spent in the colder months, when certain produce is unavailable and local wa-ter ice stands are closed. Needless to say, I’ve been reveling in the recent availability of all sorts of colorful, sweet fruit, like melon, pineapple, ber-ries and mango. I’ve also been frequenting Scoops and Rita’s and have even stocked my freezer with popsicles. Store bought varieties are fine with me, but even when I need to satisfy a pregnancy crav-ing fairly quickly, I still
enjoy the creative process. These homemade yogurt popsicles speak to my needs for fruit, dairy, and frozen treats.
Mango Yogurt Popsicles1 1/3 cup vanilla Greek yogurt1 ½ cups mango nectar 1 ripe mango, peeled and chopped ½ cup sugar1 tablespoons crystallized ginger, finely chopped
Pour the all ingredients into a blender or food processor and blend until mostly smooth. Pour into popsicle molds or small
paper cups. Freeze for about one hour, then push a popsicle stick into the center of each mold and press gently. Place back in the freezer until solid. To loosen, place the mold upside down under warm running tap water, or tear the paper cup off. This recipe for mango yogurt popsicles is creamy, fruity and refreshing. The vanilla yogurt base incor-porates a rich texture and tangy flavor, and it gives the frozen treat more sub-stance than those that are simply sugary, fruity water. The sweet mango nectar heightens the natural flavor of the fruit, which makes
its appearance with spo-radic chunk throughout each popsicle. Crystal-lized ginger pairs well with the tropical fruit, but is very powerful; you wouldn’t be losing anything by scaling back by half, or even omitting it altogether. Though I have a popsicle mold, I found the small paper cup process to be signifi-cantly easier for serving, as it’s simply torn away from the popsicle the moment it’s served. This combination was so successful, I’m anx-ious to try the recipe with other fruit, juice, and yogurt. So long as my freezer is stocked with these treats, there will be no late-night runs to satisfy my cravings.•

My Pop-Pop is so great,He never goes to sleep late.
He always has something to say but I love him anyway.
We always have fun and even though he is old, he sure can run.
He always makes me laugh, thank God he doesn’t look like a giraffe.His fishing hat is what he always wears,
this man never eats pears.Just remember I love my Pop
and that will never stop.

Flag Day is a day for all Americans to celebrate and show respect for our flag. The flag of the United States represents our independence and our unity as a nation.....one na-tion, under God, indivisible. It has been an enduring symbol of this country’s ideals since its early days. Our flag was at the lead of every battle fought by Americans and many have died protecting it. As Americans, we have every right to be proud of our culture, our nation, and our flag. So raise the flag on Flag Day, Saturday, June 14, and every day with pride! /Photo: Roman Blazic

And could it be that Mar-ty Moss-Coane’s handlers have a baby up-talk test that they administer to potential radio guests? “Alright,” I can easily imagine Marty’s handlers saying. “Here’s the way we’d like you to speak: Ap-proach every sentence as if it was a floor on an elevator that was going up. As you reach each of the upper floors, make your voice go higher and higher so that in the end it reaches Cast-rando levels. Then, punch the whole thing out with a cool, lingering… question mark…” Talking this way, of course, goes against the natural grain of speak-ing. A speaker of baby up-talk has to work to get the updraft cadence right. I compare it to off key mantras and chants sung in mosques or old Byzantine churches that to untrained ears can sound off-key. Thankfully, the filmmaker didn’t speak in baby up-talk, and neither did Moss-Coane. A key component of baby up- talk is the chronic, repetitive use of the word ‘so.’ Chronic, repetitive use of the word ‘so’ can also be heard on NPR on a regular basis—along with all those Apatow career report updates. (It is said that the use of the word ‘so’ began with software engineers in the Silicon Valley. The engineers, it seemed, saw the word as a connective, logical word and that seems to suggest that a further explanation is on the way.) When I was a boy, I used to have a stutter, and one of the words I used to say a lot was “um.” I would punctuate every sentence with so many “um’s” that my teachers would take me aside and ask if I needed speech lessons. My fa-ther would often count the number of times I repeated “um,” and then give me the tally at the end of a sentence. The numbers were scandalous. “See if you can re-say the sentence without saying ‘um,’” he’d say, but most often I could not. For me, saying ‘um’ was not a fixation on the word or a device I used in order to collect my thoughts, but a way-station while making my way through a sentence because I didn’t know how to breathe while speaking. A succession of speech tutors had no luck with me until one very talented tutor got to the root of the problem: teaching me to breathe while speaking. Now, I never say ‘um,’ although when I read re-cently that ‘so’ is the new ‘um,’ my ears perked up. ‘So,’ just as ‘um,’ is a mut-ed pause, maybe even a substitute for ‘ah’ or a short silence. Most language ex-
perts consider ‘um’ to be a normal part of speech, while they take a very dim view of ‘so’ used in the place of an ‘um.’ And that’s because ‘so’ stands out more as a word rather than any kind of a pause. Consider this sentence: “So, l ike, my mother comes in and offers to take us to the Phillies game, but, like, she sees beer on my little brother’s bureau and she’s like, ‘So what’s this?” and my little brother is like, ‘Oh it’s Dad’s,’ so Mom calls Dad who tells her that he didn’t buy any beer except for the Hires he always takes to Wild-wood. So, like, after my
little brother says he lied, Mom says he’s grounded and can forget about the Phillies. So, like, it got re-ally awful when my little brother snuck out later and wound up getting arrested. So….” Just imagine the preceding sentence delivered in baby up-talk and you really have an entirely new language other than English. All of which leads me to conclude, perhaps unfairly, that NPR is now as com-mercial as NBC10, that speaking in tongues is not what it used to mean, and that to be considered cool, you have to go back to talk-ing like a baby.•

Red is a young boy with the coolest coloring of light brown brindle. In his previous home Red lived with kids. He has also met kids while at the shelter and he loved them ... he wanted to snuggle up with them! Red knows his commands, such as sit and down. He comes when he is called. He is house trained and he really perks up when he sees other dogs. Red is a really smart, well-behaved, and all-around fun boy who deserves all of the kisses, love, and snuggles a person can give, so come on down to meet him! We promise that you will want to take Red home with you! If you have dogs of your own, you’ll need to bring at least one in to meet any potential dogs and make sure there is no major personality clash. Please also bring proof that you are allowed dogs/cats at your home if you rent. Red is located at ACCT -- 111 W. Hunting Park Ave, Phila., PA 19140.

In loving memory of my daughterStella McHugh Dempsey
3/31/61 – 6/15/09
My Stella, this day comes with such regrets. It is a day I will never forget. Getting that phone call saying my baby passed away. My friend, great sister and great aunt for 29 days, we were al by your side hoping that God would let my baby survive. But God wanted a beautiful angel so he took my Stella away. Rest in peace my baby.

I will always love you,Grandmom

the red from our mother country, separating it by
white stripes, thus showing that we have
separated from her, and the white stripes
shall go down to posterity,
representing our liberty.
