Coming off their successful production of ‘Les Misérables,’ the Howell P.A.L. Theater Company is gearing up for an even more extravagant show this time around when they debut ‘Matilda’ at Lakewood’s Strand Theater for two shows only on September 9 and 10.

The Zoning Board heard initial testimony for proposed expansion of the existing apartment complex at North American Drive, but the plan failed to reach a vote. The application of Countryside North American Partners, L.P. ran into issues within minutes of the start of their presentation to the Board, as concerns about the traffic, encroachment upon

I think as we get better and better at what we do, we are fine tuning things, so we have higher expectations for ourselves. We can’t even compare the productions we did previously, because they (Theater - See Page 3) (ApartmentSee Page 2) (Awareness - See Page 4)

in our power to mitigate the human toll of this epidemic,” Acting Monmouth County Prosecutor Lori Linskey said. “A big part of that is promoting remembrance: reminding our community that each person lost is not some nameless, faceless statistic, but a dynamic individual who leaves behind hopes, dreams, and friends and family members who remain devastated by their absence.”
“As overdose deaths rise to previously unthinkable levels, both here in Monmouth County and nationwide, it’s so vitally important to resist discouragement and continue to do absolutely everything
The entrance to the development at North American Drive. neighboring properties, and affordable housing came to the forefront. “It’s up to you whether you want to proceed,” said Howell Township Planner Jennifer Beahm to Board Chairman Paul Sayah. “But these are items that I feel need to be addressed.

– In honor of International Overdose Awareness Day on August 31, purple flags decorated the lawns of many municipalities, including Howell Township, to remember those who lost their life due to a drug overdose.

The area in question sits on 16.77 acres of property and the development plan seeks to extend the parking areas at the location, add drive aisles, a playground, and a community pool. The plans also call for a stormwater retention basin as well as two underground stormwater management basins. At present, the existing lots consist of undeveloped woodland and a single-family home. Speaking before the Board, architect Harry T. “Ted” Osborne discussed the site plan, running through a number of exhibits to show the proposed buildings and the materials that would be in use.
“The owner wanted to give a little bit back to the community,” said Osborne regarding the proposed clubhouse and pool, which was meant to be a gathering space, fitness center and site office. When it was stated that any of the community members could use the location to have parties and private functions, the issue of traffic and parking adequacy quickly became a concern. By the time the applicant’s second expert, engineer Robert Espasa, had completed his testimony, the meeting was adjourned with a number of follow-up issues from parking, noise, sidewalks, encroachment on neighboring properties and even woodlands management.Theapplication will pick up on Sept. 19, at which time the questions raised during the testimony of the fi rst two experts will be addressed. Still scheduled to testify when the application proceeds will be the Countryside’s traffic engineer and professional planner. Page 13
John Giunco appeared on behalf of the applicant, who came before the Zoning Board seeking approval for a use variance as well as a preliminary and fi nal major site plan that would combine three lots along West Farms Road to become the site of five garden apartment buildings. Four of the proposed buildings would account for 48 new housing units, while the fifth building would encompass not only eight units for living, but a clubhouse area on the fi rst floor. In total, the 56 proposed units would combine with the 180 existing units on the site. Given that the applicant did not know how many residents currently live in the existing 180 units, nor could project how many more people the expansion could bring, again the questions about traffic and noise issues arose. “I’m going to say to the Board, I would be remiss if I advise you to actually act on this application,” Beahm said again to Sayah. “I think that these things need to be worked out before we can determine the balancing act as a positive, versus the negative. And quite honestly, you know we’ve asked for some concessions regarding the affordable housing on the site. They have not been cooperative. And so, until we get the affordable housing issue resolved, honestly I’m not a hundred percent sure, Mr. Chair, it’s up to you. But, I think these issues need to be resolved prior to the board even moving forward with the application.”
Apartment: Continued From Page 1 prior to coming to you, but they chose to come anyway. So, it’s up to you whether you want to proceed or not.” With the applicant’s attorney and his experts present and ready to testify on the Zoom call, Sayah chose to have the presentationAttorneystart.

Because of the short turnaround time, the rehearsals are three to four hours long and held four times a week. But Bryck and Lutz have worked together so long that they are connected like a double helix, working independently, yet connected by the cast and the importance of the show.
Some of the other young actors who round out Matilda’s classmates include Brennan Boyce, Chloe Nowosacki, Anthony Lisi, Miles Imregi, Madison Butler, Alexa Lege, Michael Manekas and Kaitlyn Waterman. Audiences will be in for a pleasant surprise when talented and versatile actress Adysson Fazio steps onto the stage. While she played several minor roles during the theater company’s recent production of Les Misérables, the Howell High School sophomore will lend her melodic voice to the role of Miss Honey, the sympathetic teacher who becomes a friend, confidant, and mentor to the young Matilda.Butscaling up the professional level of the production has scaled up the issues, as well.
The adult characters in the play are skillfully brought to life by several seasoned actors in the theater company. High school sophomore Cooper Stahl is a young talent who brings a physical comedy to the role of Matilda’s father, Mr. Wormwood. Not to be outdone, Mrs. Wormwood is portrayed brilliantly by Kayla Brown, who delivers her lines with a sassy attitude. Brown pulls double duty in the theater company, as she also assists Bryck in rehearsal as the student musical director, asSimilarly,well.
Bryck turns to Lutz, who grins sheepishly with guilt. Bryck never misses a beat, turning back to the cast, imploring them to continue as a smile comes to her face, as well. During one song, Bryck is working with the cast, reminding them to modulate properly. She bobs her head along with the tune, her hands clapping. She drills them again and again, with the young actors repeating the process. With a trained ear, Bryck requests that the males tone down and the females project their voices more. “That is so much better,” Bryck says. “Annunciation. That’s huge for this entire show.” The cast runs through the scenes, with Bryck providing on-the-fly blocking modifications, while Lutz is discussing choreography with Garcia. Suddenly, Bryck turns and fires off a question.“Where’s the bathroom going to be, Ms. Lutz?” Bryck asks. Lutz is conferring with Garcia, and doesn’t appear to have heard the question. But it has not gone unheeded. Lutz finishes her point with Garcia, then turns to Bryck and responds. “It’s stage left,” she replies, then returns to Garcia and irons out additional choreography. As rehearsal moves forward, they work tirelessly on a classroom scene where the children rebel against the headmistress during an impromptu spelling bee. “You need to be scared,” Bryck says, directing the kids. “Don’t cross your legs. Look ahead of you. You’re scared, but try to remain strong.” She even joins the cast as one of the students while she directs. It’s coming to the part of the scene where the chalk begins to write on the blackboard by itself. Lutz notices a problem, and signals for them to stop. The computer graphics she had been working on when she accidentally set off the second musical track earlier in rehearsal has an issue. The blackboard writing is not matching up with the script. They run the scene repeatedly, agonizing to get the timing right. The music must be in synch with the actors reacting to the chalkboard. Rehearsal is the time to iron out such issues, because everything needs to be perfect by opening night.
alternating hats during rehearsal is Howell High School senior Giada Garcia, who not only lends her voice to the role of Mrs. Phelps, but also acts as the student dance captain, assisting younger cast members with choreography and timing. The cast has several standout P.A.L. Theater Company veterans such as Daniel Arce, who will portray four different characters during the show. In the proud tradition of male actors such as John Cleese or Robin Williams playing English women, college freshman Brian Beehler will carry the role of the cruel headmistress, Miss Trunchbull.
Theater: Continued From Page 1 are not at the same level as they are now.” Besides the added burden of doing two shows in a relatively short period of time, the theater company has increased the cast to 52 young actors between the ages of seven and 18 in the production this time. Sixth-grader Kylie Ferland from Marlboro plays the title character in the current production, which tells the story of a young girl who finds her personal escape through the world of books. Assisting Matilda to overcome the hardships put upon the young bookworm by her parents are the school’s librarian, Mrs. Phelps and her teacher, Miss Honey. The alliance between Matilda and Miss Honey forms the basis of the strength that the young student will need to begin a revolution with her other classmates against the cruel headmistress of the school, Miss Trunchbull.
The attention to detail is demanding, but all of it is necessary, according to Lutz, to “bring a true theater experience for the audience. We make it tough for ourselves, not easy.”
“Not going to lie,” says Lutz candidly. “Doing two shows back-to-back is a new and first-time P.A.L. experience that makes it hard in itself.” Besides the music and special effects to be incorporated into the show, the set for ‘Matilda’ is lavish and professional. Taken from the Gretna Playhouse in Lebanon, Pa., the set would not fit in the truck the P.A.L. rented to bring it to Howell. The only solution was to cut the pieces in half so that they could be transported to New Jersey, where it will be painstakingly reassembled by tech master Mike Moorman in time for the show. In addition to the upscale set, the wardrobe, and the size of the cast itself, the level of technology in the show causes rehearsal issues, and mistakes are made. While working with the show’s computer graphics as the cast is rehearsing a song, Lutz accidentally hits a button and suddenly two musical tracks are playing at the same time.
Awareness: Continued From Page 1 Prevention Coalition of Monmouth County, aims to bring awareness to this epidemic and support community members one town at a time. The Coalition’s goal is to reduce substance abuse in Monmouth County by providing awareness, education and advocacy through collaborative efforts to ensure healthy, safe and drug-free lives. For the past three years, the Coalition has been running the campaign which continues to grow. This year they have 43 of Monmouth County’s 53 towns participating in the project, which is 7 more than the year before.According to statistics compiled by the New Jersey Coordinator for Addiction Responses and Enforcement Strategies (NJ CARES), a total of 79 people have died due to a drug overdose in Monmouth County during the fi rst half of 2022. Between 2012 to 2021, an estimated 1,500 lives were lost countywide due to a drug overdose with the highest total hitting 215 inIn2018.Howell Township, there was a total of 26 non-fatal and three fatal overdoses that occurred between January 1 and June 30. Once again, the Howell Alliance is participating in the campaign and the Howell Police Cadets have assisted with placing the purple flags outside the Township’s municipal building. In addition, the Howell Alliance will present a Governing Body and Township Mayor Proclamation to recognize International Overdose Awareness Day. One initiative the Howell Alliance carries out is their Project Medicine Drop. They participate in the spring and fall DEA Prescription Drug Take-Back Day partnering with the Howell Police Department. Most recently, they collected 1,684 pounds of unwanted medications. The Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Office also plays a lead role in combating the local opioid epidemic. In 2014, they became the second count in New Jersey to train all of its police officers on the use of naloxone, a nasally administered chemical that works to quickly and safely reverse the effects of an overdose. As a result, they’ve administered naloxone on more than 2,600 occasions from 2017 through the fi rst quarter of 2022, with a majority of the recipients surviving. In 2022, they hosted the fi rst graduation ceremony for its newly established Recovery Diversion Program. The program that substitutes peer recovery and treatment services for nonviolent municipal court offenders, rather than traditional prosecution.

Suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death for 20- to 34-year-olds and the 3rd leading cause of death for 10- to 19-yearolds in the U.S. Suicide Prevention Month aims to raise public awareness of suicide prevention, education, and support resources. This month and year-round, the Howell Alliance provide community members with mental health and suicide prevention information as part of its mission to prevent substance use and promote mental well-being while ending the stigma surrounding these topics. To commemorate the month, the Howell Alliance is hosting a free virtual QPR suicide prevention training on September 28 from 7 to 8:30 p.m., with a focus on youth suicide prevention. QPR stands for Question, Persuade, and Refer—the three simple steps anyone can learn to help save a life from suicide. Just as people trained in CPR and the Heimlich maneuver help save thousands of lives each year, people trained in QPR learn how to recognize the warning signs of a suicide crisis and then use the question, persuade, and refer strategies to assist someone with getting help.

Lead can be found in dust, air, water, soil, and in some products used in and around our homes. Most often, children get lead poisoning from breathing in or swallowing dust from old lead paint. Lead poisoning is 100% preventable. It is important to have your child tested between 12 and 36 months. A child can have lead poisoning and not look or act sick. Lead testing is not part of a routine pediatric check-up. Parents should ask their health care provider to test their child’s blood for lead.

Looking at the various reasons why people draft their own wills I find that most of them are not valid. As noted, the most common reason people try to make their own wills is to save money. This is most often an illusion. In Ocean County the average cost of preparing a will varies from $100 to $200. The cost of having to go to court if the will is not drafted property can be as high as $2,500 to $3,000. In a worst case scenario, the court may rule that there is no will at all, thus subjecting the estate to go through administration, where the cost of posting a surety bond could easily exceed $1,000.00 each year in an average estate. Clearly, any savings of trying to write your own will could be wiped out by the potential costs if the will is not drafted properly. Some people will try to draft wills themselves because they want to put in certain wording. In some cases the wording that they are trying to put in their wills is either illegal, impractical or impossible to carry out. For example, one client wanted to leave all the assets to the executor named in the will and let the executor determine how the assets should be divided. In other words, the executor would be making the very decisions that the maker of the will should have made. Finally, wills are drafted by attorneys using terms and concepts that date back to medieval England. Those terms and concept have a specific meaning in the law. Often those terms are not readily understood by the non-lawyer. By attempting to draft a will using common English, in many cases a person will create an ambiguity that can only be resolved by a court at great expense to the person’s estate. In one case, when faced with two conflicting clauses concerning the payment of death taxes and not understanding either clause, the client put both clauses into the will and said let the executor decide which clause should apply. One can only imagine what the Internal Revenue Service would have done with that logic. Your will is the most important document you will ever sign. It only makes sense to have it prepared by an attorney knowledgeable in estate law rather than try to do it yourself. The modest cost of having an attorney prepare the will is offset by the potential costs if the will is not drafted properly.

Our clients’ success is our greatest reward. 732-505-1212 • RCSHEA.COM It happens several times each year, a client walks into my office with a document entitled “Last Will and Testament” and asks me to review it. The document is always a will that the client attempted to draft on his or her own. In some cases they used a form book from the library, in other cases they used an online service or a software program which they purchased. In a few instances, they will attempt to copy another will, either their own prior will or someone else’s. In almost every instance, the document does not meet the requirements for a will in the State of New Jersey putting them in a position where they either have no will at all or which requires a court to interpret the document for them, which could cost their estates a lot of money. I believe that drafting your own will is like trying to remove your own gall bladder. There is a small chance that you may do it right, but there is a far greater chance that you won’t. In over 100 do-it-yourself wills that I have reviewed, not one was a valid will that would have been probated with the Surrogate’s office. When I ask the client why they attempted to draft their own will, the most common answer I receive is that they wanted to save money. Other times they will tell me that they wrote the will themselves because an attorney refused to prepare the will they way they wanted it. In one instance a client told me he drafted his own will because he did not understand the “legalese” he saw in wills and he wanted a will that he and his family could understand.
JERSEY SHORE The monarch butterfly is easily recognized by their vibrant orange wings. Monarch butterflies are pollinators, like bees. Pollinating is critical to the survival of our planet. In doing so, monarch butterflies are also an important food source for other insects, bird, and small animals. During the fall millions of monarch butterflies take on the migration to overwinter in Mexico and to some locations along the California coast. When spring arrives monarchs return to breeding areas and the cycle begins again. Their migration is considered to be one of the most spectacular on the planet. Some theories as to the causes of their decline are the loss of milkweed which is needed for monarch caterpillars to grow and develop. Milkweed is the only plant they lay their eggs on. Once the eggs hatch, the caterpillars will consume massive amounts of milkweed leaves. Sadly, the monarch butterfly population has been steadily declining at enormous rates. Some reasons for the decline are the drought conditions in areas in the western United States contributing to reduced availability of milkweed in late summer. Using insecticides and herbicides to control insects and weeds causes unintended consequences for the monarch butterfly. Habitat is lost from development and the decaying of aging trees in the overwintering sites in California. The illegal logging in overwintering sites in Mexico is also creating habitat loss. We can help the monarchs by planting milkweed and butterfly nectar plants, thereby creating a monarch butterfly habitat. Planting milkweed helps the caterpillars grow and develop. Nectar plants provide energy as they breed, for the migratory journey, and to build reserves for the long winter. When growing these plants avoid using pesticides. Without nectar plants in bloom for the monarch to feed on when they need to fly, they will not have any energy to continue and reach their destination. If we create a monarch habitat in our gardens, this will help to reverse their decline. If you would like to raise and release monarch butterfl ies, there is much information online. I would be happy to provide you with some direction as well. The information for this article from was gathered through multiple sources so statistics may vary slightly.

Remarkable Benefits Of Banaba That Can Save Your Life
Banaba leaf has been used for centuries to treat various ailments. Banaba is not misspelled, it is not intended to be banana, it is “banaba” and therefore has nothing to do with the delicious starchy fruit you might be thinking of.
I don’t recommend you try to steep anything off your tree or do a DIY project! You are more than likely going to hurt yourself. Commercial preparations of this natural supplement are sold in health food stores and online retailers.
There are side effects with banaba, just like there are with other herbs and medications.
By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.
1. Banaba Can Illicit Reductions in Blood Sugar. Corosolic acid has been reported to have immediate effects. For example, it was shown that this compound could decrease blood sugar levels within 60 min in participants who were tested. Banaba increases insulin sensitivity, so your levels of glucose go down. Furthermore, inflammatory cytokines also go down. This should translate to a reduced risk of diabetic complications such as heart attack and amputation. There are studies all over pubmed that will affirm these effects, and others in case you are interested.
3. Banaba May Support Healthy DNA. What’s interesting is that, unlike many other herbs that have anti proliferative activity, banaba works differently. Most other herbs cause a cancer cell to die (ie to end its own life), the term for this is called “apoptosis.” But with banaba leaf, the anti-cancer effect comes from several other mechanisms, and the overall result suggests it could benefit people dealing with kidney and possibly liver cancer.
Be careful when using this herbal derivative because it can lower blood sugar, which can be dangerous, especially if you’re taking anti-diabetic medications or herbs. Banaba has been known to cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Just like any medication or plant-derived herb, this is a possibility.
The benefit of having more balanced blood sugar is that you have fewer cravings and can start losing weight! Any antidiabetic effect (even from medication) causes the same effect.
Still, I feel that the pros outweigh the cons with banaba. You can ask your practitioner if it’s something that could help you. Also, if you would like to read a more detailed version of my article visit suzycohen.com.”
Known in the botanical world as Lagerstroemia speciosa (L.), this plant is also known as the Crapemyrtle tree! When in full bloom, these are the most beautiful trees you will ever see in the south!

The hypoglycemic effects of banaba extract come from certain leaf or seed compounds, a few of which include corosolic acid, ellagic acid, triterpenes, flavones, tannins, and others.
PharmacistDearSuzyCohen,R.Ph.
Let’s go over some incredible benefits:
2. Banaba Can Cause Reductions in Cholesterol. When you reduce cholesterol to a normal healthy amount (not a ridiculously low amount), your heart disease risk decreases. And when I say “cholesterol” I don’t actually mean total amounts, I mean the LDL and VLDL components. The same constituents I mentioned above in banaba play a critical role in reducing cholesterol, and studies prove this.

WALL – United Way of Monmouth and Ocean Counties (UWMOC) held the United for Impact Wine Event at Patricia’s of Holmdel on June 29. Guests sampled a variety of exquisite wines with delicious Italian food provided by the host restaurant. Special thanks to the event’s top supporters for making it such a success: Carol Stillwell; Stillwell-Hansen Inc.; Luke Bollerman; One Willow; ENCON; Grunin Foundation; New Jersey Natural Gas; Privetera’s Florist and Landscape Nursery; Phil & Marilyn Perricone; Elizabeth Von Ziegasar and Patricia’s of Holmdel. Proceeds from the event will enable United Way to advance its work in our community to provide resources and support to help families build a pathway to fi nancial stability, expand youth access to health services and opportunities for vocational training. Thanks to the generosity of guests during the live appeal portion of the evening, enough funds were raised to help 915 local families through United Way’s Basic Needs Initiative – far surpassing the organization’s goal for that night of 500 families helped.
“Financial challenges existed for many families prior to the pandemic, and now many more are having to make difficult decisions about how their limited funds are spent,” said Lori-Anne McLane, President & CEO of United Way of Monmouth and Ocean Counties. “Our neighbors shouldn’t have to choose between paying bills and purchasing hygiene products for their family, which many people don’t realize are not covered by government aid such as SNAP. Funds raised during our wine event last year helped kick start the Basic Needs Initiative, and the contributions of this year’s guests will help grow it considerably.” To learn more about United Way of Monmouth and Ocean Counties and the Basic Needs Initiative, visit uwmoc.org.
UWMOC launched the Basic Needs Initiative in 2021 as part of the organization’s work in fi nancial stability, which connects people experiencing economic hardship to immediate and long-term assistance. Through this project, United Way is providing consistent, reliable access to personal care products to alleviate the financial strain and stress on families in Monmouth and Ocean counties. Access to these desperately needed essentials will extend the limited income of our unserved and underserved residents. Families will also be connected to resources to address longer-term fi nancial stability through UWMOC’s Financial Success Center Network.
