Christian-Born Teaneck Pizza Shop Owner Feels Connected To Kosher Community
TEANECK, N.J. — A Jewish star hangs around Hanna Mendez' neck as she tends to business in her Teaneck store. But Mendez, who recently took over Cedar Lane's Pizzalicious — and added frozen yogurt section Berrylicious to it — is not Jewish: She was born and raised a Christian in Mexico. Working at the kosher shop and several others like it, though, has become a way for Mendez to live in a community she's long wanted to be a part of.

Glen Rock Dad In New York Times: Why I'm Giving Kids Inheritance Now
GLEN ROCK, N.J. — Paul B. Brown of Glen Rock knows wealth. "I have worked for a man who owns his-and-her 747s.

Teaneck Trainer Heals With Pain, Inspires Others Along The Way
TEANECK, N.J. — Pain is what Teaneck fitness trainer Mike Leggett says shaped his body. It started emotionally when he was 20 with the pain of feeling lost, mostly.

But Leggett knew his body had the ability to heal itself and that if he could overcome the pain — inside and out — he'd be stronger on the other side. "I’m a survivor," said Leggett, 31, a personal trainer at UFC in Edgewater and Underground Fitness in Tenafly. "Self-healing is a hard thing to d…
