Hot Dog! Callahan's Adds Second Truck, Permanent Paramus Residence PARAMUS, N.J. — Callahan's popular food truck takes up full-time permanent residency in Paramus's Van Saun Park this month, thanks to the addition of a second mobile eatery.

Young Ridgewood Actor Grapples With Moral Ambiguity Onstage Young Ridgewood Actor Grapples With Moral Ambiguity Onstage Young Ridgewood Actor Grapples With Moral Ambiguity Onstage
Young Ridgewood Actor Grapples With Moral Ambiguity Onstage RIDGEWOOD, N.J. — No one taught Ridgewood’s Daniil Krimer how to play a scene asking for forgiveness from a rape that his character doesn’t remember. "How do you behave in a situation like that?" the 24-year-old Montclair State University graduate said. "And how do you make the audience believe it?" Krimer, as Davis, had no blueprint. He went in cold. He went in alone. It's a perfect reflection of the message he aims to send audiences in the Actors Equity Association Basic Showcase Code’s (Pending) production of “Really Really" on April 26. Today's youth — a gener…

Demarest's Holy Angels' Lacrosse Player Draws For Service Dogs Demarest's Holy Angels' Lacrosse Player Draws For Service Dogs Demarest's Holy Angels' Lacrosse Player Draws For Service Dogs
Demarest's Holy Angels' Lacrosse Player Draws For Service Dogs DEMAREST, N.J. — Holy Angel’s junior Devin Toolen has heard the stories. The Midland Park lacrosse player knows about 8-year-old Lindsay, whose therapy dog alerted her parents right before she had a seizure. Toolen, 16, has seen how companion animals facilitate basic tasks for people with cerebral palsy or muscular dystrophy — making their days a little easier, and that much brighter. But Toolen doesn't want to hear the stories. She wants to be a part of them. The 16-year-old athlete has raised upwards of $1,000 since her first 2008 bake sale for Mickey’s Kids Foundation and on April 6, …

Psychic 'Speaks From The Spirit' At Totowa Library TOTOWA, N.J. — Roe Rubinetti Cappiello was driving through a trestle on her regular commute to work one morning in 1999 when she was overcome by what felt like anxiety. It was someone else’s presence, she said, presumably the ghost of a young boy who’d fallen from a nearby tree and died years before. It was the first of several instances that Cappiello said awoke her ability to communicate with people who’ve passed on.  She now uses what she says are psychic abilities to help others connect with loved ones, and in October 2014 penned "Speaking from Spirit: Inspiring Stories and Messag…

Paterson Firefighter Honored For Off-Duty CPR Save PATERSON, N.J. — It’s usually a Paterson fire engine or ambulance that Beth Fournier climbs from to save a life. Last fall, it was an elliptical machine. With 10 minutes to spare before she had to pick up her son after an off-duty workout, Fournier of Pequannock noticed “a whole bunch of commotion” by the treadmills at Spa 23 in Pompton Plains. A middle-aged man had fallen down and lay unconscious on the machine. Someone had applied AED pads to his chest, but the shocks wouldn't have worked the way he was positioned, Fournier said. What followed was a race against time, without a second…
