    Tonys Boulevard Service

    Center has been keep-

    ing motorists safe in

    Pompton Plains and the neigh-boring communities for over 21

    years.

    As the winter season

    approaches, owner Anthony

    Cangialosi encourages

    all car owners to have

    their vehicles checked

    out. Tonys will ensure

    all belts, hoses, heating

    system, tires, fluid lev-

    els, filters and batteries

    are prepared to carryyou safely through the

    winter.

    Cangialosi origi-

    nally opened the automotive

    repair service on the Boulevard in

    1992. Eight years later, he

    expanded to a second location,

    Pompton Plains Sunoco at 547

    Newark-Pompton Turnpike .Between the two locations,

    there are six service bays to

    ensure fast and efficient repairs.

    Most repairs are complet-

    ed same-day, Cangialosi said.

    Tonys services all car repair

    needs, from transmissions and

    engines to basic maintenance.

    The repair team performs front-

    end alignments, computer diag-

    nostics, tune-ups and all sched-uled factory maintenance. They

    also work on brakes, suspen-

    sions and exhaust systems, and

    handle Goodyear, Firestone,

    Continental and Michelin tires.

    All technicians are

    trained and licensed,

    with expert knowledge

    in both domestic andimport vehicles. To fur-

    ther guarantee accuracy

    and safety, Cangialosi

    employs state-of-the-art

    computer diagnostic

    equipment.

    We are known for car-

    ing for our customers safety, said

    Cangialosi. We get the work

    done right the first time, and at

    an affordable rate.

    And, Cangialosi says, cus-tomers can always count on one

    additional thing: Honest service

    at a competitive price.

    Though annuities havebeen around since the

    days of the Roman

    Empire, they have gone

    through many metamor-

    phisms, especially since the

    1950s. Yet many people have

    little to no idea how these

    much maligned financial

    products can create a securedguaranteed retirement income

    without giving up one penny

    of principal. Even respected

    people in the financial media

    are totally misinformed about

    annuities, spewing incorrect,

    false and incomplete informa-

    tion about annuities of all

    types. I am appalled by theannuity venom of TV person-

    ality SZ, radio supposed guru

    RK and print pundit KN.

    To protect the guilty I have

    somewhat disguised their

    names here, but I believe you

    know whom I am referring to.

    So in the spirit of these

    spokespeople, we will start ourconversation with the ugly.

    SZ says: Never put your

    IRA into an annuity because

    an annuity is tax deferred and

    so is your IRA, so why pay for

    tax-deferral through an insur-

    ance company with your

    IRA? What a bunch of bunk!

    Do you know how much theinsurance company charges

    for tax deferral? Absolutely

    nothing! Tax deferral for

    annuities is sanctioned by

    congress. So there must be

    another reason to put your

    IRA into an annuity, and

    there are many. More about

    that later in the good sec-

    tion of this article.

    RK says: Annuities are

    just too expensive and thereare many other less expensive

    alternatives. Compared to

    what? A 1972 Ford Pinto and

    a 2013 Rolls Royce Phantom

    will both drive you to work

    every day, but the 1972 Pinto

    could explode if hit in the rear

    along the way. Though your

    insurance would replace the

    car in that event, who would

    replace you? Along with style,

    grace, prestige and the finest

    ride in the automobile uni-

    verse, if you get hit in the rear

    while driving your Rolls

    Royce, you certainly wouldnt

    blow up. In fact, you and your

    car would probably beunscathed by the event. My

    first car was a 1972 Pinto that

    I rolled over on its side when

    making a turn at 5 mph on

    wet pavement. When driving

    my 1994 Bentley, identical to

    a Rolls Royce of the same

    year, the traffic came to a sud-

    den stop from 40 mph on

    Route 23. I stopped, but the

    Annuities: the good, the bad and the ugly! By Mark Charnet

    young college student behind

    me never even hit the brake,

    plowing into me with her

    Nissan. The hood of her car

    folded in half to the wind-shield. My car had two small

    scratches where her license

    plate screws were located.

    There was absolutely no dam-

    age to the car, to me or my

    passenger. Does that mean

    the difference in price

    between the Pinto and the

    Bentley might have saved me

    from bodily harm or even my

    life? Ill let you decide. I doknow if I were hit like that in

    the Pinto, I would not be writ-

    ing this column today.

    What about your portfo-

    lio and retirement income?

    Are they crash proof?

    Annuities can be designed to

    be crash proof! Is there a fee

    for that feature? Absolutely! Is

    it worth it? Ill let you decided

    that for yourself, too.

    KN just doesnt like

    annuities. Probably becausehe doesnt sell them and it

    takes away dollars from what

    he does like to sell to his

    clients: assets under manage-

    ment. Stocks, bonds and

    mutual funds can all be held

    in a managed account that

    generates fees and or commis-

    sions. Most annuities do not

    fit well into this system and

    fee-based financial plannersloathe embracing products

    that do not pay on-going fees.

    The bad: Due to igno-

    rance and the promulgation of

    faulty and negative informa-

    tion spread by these media

    personalities and others

    coupled with antiquated

    information about modern

    day fixed-indexed and vari-

    able annuities the public

    is once again disserved by

    their regular resources forinformation. It is imperative

    that they get the facts from

    knowledgeable trained and

    licensed professionals in the

    annuity industry and with

    those facts be ready and able

    to make the informed, poten-

    tially portfolio-saving and

    perpetuating decisions.

    The good: I am a licensed

    annuity representative and a

    certified annuity specialist,

    uniquely qualified to render

    an opinion on this subject. Ihave rejected fee-based finan-

    cial planning from my prac-

    tice and have 32 years of

    financial planning and annu-

    ity experience. Ive also creat-

    ed the Trinity Method of

    Investing, based on a tri-

    annuity platform, which pro-

    tects your retirement and

    portfolio from the five forces

    of portfolio demise: market

    losses, liability risks, health

    care costs, expenses of long-

    term care and taxes at death.Simultaneously, most people

    Ive encountered desire

    Maximizing their income

    today while preserving, pro-

    tecting and perpetuating their

    wealth for tomorrow.

    All who employ the TMI

    benefit from the protection

    and opportunities it provides.

    Each persons specific finan-

    cial position, goals and needs

    are different, as would their

    particular design of the TMI

    be. When market corrections,crashes and upheaval occur,

    when inflation rears its ugly

    head, when the bad news

    appears in your rear view mir-

    ror, will your portfolio and

    financial life be driven by an

    The U.S. Food and

    Drug Administration

    (FDA) is going to

    explore creating a new sugarlevel for products. This is a

    number that added sugar cant

    exceed in a given product.

    The goal is to boost oral

    health, and combat diabetes,

    heart disease, and other

    health issues. The Center for

    Science and Public Interest

    filed a 54-page petition about

    the overwhelming evidence

    that added sugars cause major

    health problems.The American Heart

    Association claims that no

    person should consume more

    than nine teaspoons of sugar

    each day. The average

    American consumes between

    18-23 teaspoons of sugar each

    day. The average 20-ounce

    bottle of soda has 16 tea-

    spoonfuls of sugar from high

    fructose corn syrup.Sugary drinks comprise

    the largest source of calories in

    the American diet.

    Senior citizens and the

    winter season do not

    often get along very

    well. During these cold

    months, they are supposed to

    stay inside because extreme

    weather may cause illness or

    injury. Here are some winter

    activities that are not only

    enjoyable but beneficial.

    PLAY BINGO.Bingo maynot be the best game for stay-

    ing fit while remaining

    indoors, but this is a great

    game that encourages mental

    stimulation. It is also a great

    way to make new friends.

    This game is not only played

    at home, but can also be

    found in local halls and sen-

    ior clubs.

    USE THE TREADMILL.Treadmills are actually good

    friends of senior citizens

    while they remain indoors.

    Walking on a treadmill daily

    is just like walking outside

    except that there are no wor-

    ries about falling down a

    snowy path. It can definitely

    keep seniors fit and healthy,

    even while staying inside.

    WALK UP AND DOWN

    THE STAIRS. Winter

    activities do not have to be

    fancy. Simply walking up and

    down the stairs can actually

    keep senior citizens healthy.

    Sure, it is not as pleasant and

    fun as some other activities,

    but it burns more calories

    and keeps them away from

    heart diseases.

    TAKE A CLASS. Cooking,

    sewing and other kinds of

    classes can make the senior

    citizen busy and happy dur-

    ing the cold months.

    Enrolling in a class is a bril-

    liant method to meet new

    people. In addition, this

    improves memory, keeps

    their minds sharp and even

    boosts their self-confidence.Learning anything is the best

    way to have a healthy mind

    and body for a long time.

    LEARN TO USE THE

    COMPUTER. Winter is a

    great time to learn to use a

    computer with confidence.

    There are online tutorials for

    various computer programs

    and information about virtu-

    ally anything online. One

    can travel to museums and

    cities around the world, learn

    a new language, take an

    online class via a college or

    other venue, or just goof off

    and play games.

    7,000-pound Rolls Royce?

    Will the price of protection be

    too high then? Will your road

    of financial independence

    during retirement be com-

    pletely paved and smooth? If

    so, no protective measures

    may be necessary. However,

    should there be a storm or tur-

    moil in the stock and bond

    markets, or an expensive

    health challenge sometime

    along your journey, then the

    benefits of a properly struc-

    tured portfolio of annuities

    applied according to the TMI

    may be just what the doctor

    ordered. Are you willing to

    wait, unprepared, naked and

    vulnerable to see what hap-

    pens? Before you answer the

    question, a Rolls Royce costs

    $450,000 today. A living ben-

    efit rider for your annuity can

    cost as little as .35 percent

    annually. Thats only $350 a

    While Halloween

    can be fun for

    adults and chil-

    dren, pets might not look for-

    ward to October 31 as much as

    the rest of the family. When

    trick-or-treating time arrives

    and the doorbell gets its annu-

    al workout, pet parents should

    take steps to ensure their dogs,

    cats and other companion

    animals stay calm and dont

    get too frightened or excited.

    Halloween is full of

    decorations, costumes and

    strangers ringing your door-

    bell. While the excitement

    can be thrilling for children,

    pets can easily grow scared.

    Animals generally become

    creatures of routine, and any-

    thing that takes them out of

    their comfort zones can be a

    cause for agitation. Spooky

    decorations hung throughout

    the house and outdoors pres-

    ent new sights and smells. The

    doorbell ringing every few

    minutes could put skittish pets

    even more on edge espe-

    cially when they come face-

    to-face with hordes of cos-

    tumed trick-or-treaters.

    Candy, chocolate in par-

    ticular, poses a large risk as

    well. Even relatively small

    amounts of chocolate can be

    harmful to cats

    and dogs. Thats

    because choco-

    late contains caf-

    feine and theo-

    bromine, two dif-

    ferent types of

    stimulants that

    can wreak havoc

    on an animals

    central nervous

    system. Hard

    candies may be

    swallowed and

    become lodged

    in the throat or

    digestive tract.

    Artificial sweet-

    eners are harmful to animals,

    too.

    To help keep pets safe, it

    is best to consider the follow-

    ing tips for Halloween.

    1. Keep pets indoors for the

    day. Animals that are fright-

    ened may run away or grow

    disoriented and get lost. Also,

    you never want your pet to be

    the victim of a Halloween

    prank. Sometimes black cats

    are stolen on Halloween. Dogs

    left outside may be

    at risk for teasing

    and taunting, too.

    2. Dont take dogs trick-or-

    treating. Although you may

    have a calm, well-mannered

    dog, the crowds in the neigh-

    borhood may excite mans

    best friend, whose behavior

    might be difficult to predict.

    Also, other animals that get

    loose from homes when the

    doors are opened may provoke

    your dog. Its enough to keep

    your eyes on your children,

    never mind being mindful of

    your dog, too!

    3. Skip costumes for pets. You

    may think its a cute idea to

    dress your pets in costumes,

    but theres a good

    chance your pet does

    not share your enthu-

    siasm. It may stress

    out the animal, so

    avoid pet costumes.

    4. Be mindful of hol-

    iday decorations.

    Strings of lights,

    fake spider webs

    and other decorative items

    can be tripping hazards for

    pets, while electronic

    devices could pose a safety

    risk. Avoid lit candles in the

    home because cats or dogs

    may knock them over.

    5. Keep pets secured in a

    bedroom or another quiet

    space. Your dog or cat may

    try to bolt outside every time

    you open the door to trick-

    or-treaters. Instead, keep the

    animals in a bedroom or

    laundry area. Not only will

    they appreciate the quiet,

    but also they wont have a

    chance to escape and get lost.

    6. Store collected candy out

    of reach. Pets are inquisitive,

    and they may be drawn to the

    sweet smell of candy and

    treats. Candy wrappers and

    the candy itself can be haz-

    ardous to pets. Therefore,

    store candy where pets cannot

    access it and be sure children

    discard candy wrappers.

    19/32

    The arrival of autumn

    ushers in cooler daysand less hours of sun-

    shine. As much of the coun-

    try turns its clocks back an

    hour, night descends that

    much earlier, prompting a

    greater reliance on artificial

    light and electricity. When

    the time comes to turn clocks

    back, eco-conscious men and

    women can employ various

    strategies to conserve energy.

    Change light bulbs. Tra-ditional incandescent bulbs

    are not the most energy effi-

    cient option available. The

    United States Department of

    Energy says incandescent

    bulbs use a lot of energy to

    produce light, but a signifi-

    cant amount of energy to pro-

    duce heat as well. Ninety per-

    cent of the energy used by

    incandescent bulbs is given

    off as heat, so it is more eco-nomical and efficient to use a

    bulb that cuts down on heat

    production. Compact fluores-

    cent lamps, or CFLs, qualified

    by Energy Star use about one-

    fourth the energy and last ten

    times longer than a compara-

    ble incandescent bulb that

    puts out the same amount of

    light. Light-emitting diode,

    or LED, bulbs are a much

    more energy-efficient option,and LEDs last 25 times longer

    than incandescent bulbs.

    Turn lights off when rooms

    arent being used. It can be

    tempting to turn on all of the

    lights on in a home when

    darkness arrives. But this

    wastes both energy andmoney. Turn lights off when

    you exit rooms. Try to gather

    the family in a centralized

    location that is full of ambi-

    ent and task lighting in an

    attempt to concentrate light-

    ing usage rather than spread-

    ing it out all over the house.

    Rely on timers or automat-

    ed systems. Standard timers

    or more complex app-synced

    house management systemsenable homeowners to turn

    their lights or even appli-

    ances on and off at key times.

    Those with a smartphone or

    tablet can log in and manage

    their homes from a remote

    location, turning lights on or

    off or adjusting their thermo-

    stats at their convenience.

    Turn down the temperature.

    The California Energy

    Commission says for everydegree a person lowers the

    heat in the 60- to 70-degree

    range, he or she will save up

    to 5 percent on heating costs.

    Set the thermostat low at

    night when residents are

    under warm blankets and

    quilts, and lower the thermo-

    stat when the house is empty.

    Furthermore, homeowners

    can turn down the thermo-

    stat on hot water heaters andeven dishwashers, which can

    help save as much as 11 per-

    cent on water heating costs.

    Look to alternative heat

    and lighting sources. A warm,

    inviting fire can light up a

    room and also provide sup-

    plementary heat. Pelletstoves, or those that burn a

    highly concentrated fuel

    source that is energy efficient

    and environmentally friendly

    may prove a worthwhile

    investment. Many heating

    stoves continue to give off

    ambient heat long after their

    flames have been extin-

    guished. And centrally locat-

    ed stoves can heat most of a

    home at a fraction of the costof traditional forced-air sys-

    tems.

    Put south and west-facing

    windows to use. Place solar-

    powered devices next to an

    open window during daylight

    hours to charge when the sun

    is at its brightest. Use solar-

    powered lamps, radios and

    even phone charges once the

    sun sets. Windows that get a

    lot of warm sunlight can bedraped in dull, black curtains

    to incubate rooms that need

    warming. The black fabric

    will absorb the suns heat,

    naturally heating a room.

    Trim shrubs and trees. Make

    the most of sunlight when its

    available by allowing the

    suns rays to reach the interi-

    or of the home. Prune dor-

    mant trees and shrubs so thatthe home will get plenty of

    sunlight.

    Spend time outdoors. Make

    the most of daylight hours by

    spending as much time out-

    doors as possible. Read books

    outside or do homework at

    the patio table, reducing

    reliance on indoor lighting.

    Sunlight can make ideal tasklighting for arts and crafts

    projects as well.

    There are many ways to

    conserve energy and become

    less reliant on artificial light

    as daylight hours gradually

    dwindle.

    20/32

    In its annual Cost vs.

    Value Report that com-

    pares the cost for 35 pop-

    ular remodeling projects with

    the value those projects

    retain at resale, Remodeling

    magazine found that the

    overall average cost-value

    ratio has improved for the

    first time in six years.

    Cost-recouped percentagesincreased for all 35 projects

    examined for the 2013 sur-

    vey, a remarkable turnaround

    from just a year earlier, when

    only three of the 35 projects

    saw an increase in cost-

    recouped percentage.

    Replacement projects

    proved especially beneficial

    for homeowners, who likely

    also benefitted from a real

    estate market that finallystarted to stabilize after an

    extended period of economic

    uncertainty that heavily

    influenced both buyers and

    sellers.

    While an economy on

    the rebound no doubt bene-

    fitted homeowners looking to

    recoup as much of their

    home improvement invest-

    ment at resale as possible,

    other factors likely con-tributed as well. For example,

    homeowners surveyed for the

    2013 report who added a

    backup power generator

    recouped more of their

    investment than in previous

    years. Thats likely because

    heavily publicized storms,

    such as Superstorm Sandy

    in late 2012, have forced

    homeowners and prospective

    homeowners to place agreater emphasis on being

    prepared for such storms.

    Among the upscale

    projects surveyed, none

    recouped more of a home-

    owners investment than

    replacing existing siding

    with fiber-cement siding.

    Homeowners who financed

    such a project recouped 79.3

    percent of the projects cost,

    placing it just ahead of agarage door replacement,

    which recouped an average

    of 75.2 percent of its cost.

    After years of many

    home improvement projects

    recouping little of their ini-

    tial costs at resale, the tide

    finally seems to be turning

    for homeowners. More infor-

    mation about the 2013 Cost

    Halloween parties are

    commonplace. Full of

    frightful decorations

    and spooky lighting, a good

    Halloween party also features

    food that plays up the theme of

    the evening. Therefore,

    Halloween party hosts will

    need to get creative with the

    type of foods they serve to

    ensure a spook-tacular time.With a little ingenuity,

    otherwise mundane foods can

    be transformed into something

    worthy of a second look. Here

    are some creative ways to turn

    ordinary food items into

    Halloween-inspired fare for

    your next get-together.

    GHOSTS IN THE

    PUMPKIN PATCH

    Using bananas and

    clementines or small oranges,you can create the appearance

    of ghosts haunting a field of

    pumpkins. Peel both the

    oranges and the bananas and

    place small chocolate chips

    into the rounded head of the

    banana to create a ghost face.

    Use a piece of green gummy

    candy or something that will

    hold its shape to create stems

    for the orange pumpkins. Place

    the ghosts and pumpkins on aplatter or in a bowl for a

    healthy and festive snack.

    WITCHES BREW

    Create a punch recipe

    that bubbles and looks like a

    witchs evil concoction. Put

    two quarts of lime sherbet for a

    green punch (or orange sherbet

    if you prefer an orange punch)

    in a punch bowl. Add a two-

    liter bottle of ginger ale and

    one can of pineapple juice. Feelfree to float eyeball peeled

    grapes or gummy worms in the

    brew for a more authentic

    effect. If available, add a piece

    of dry ice to the punch so it

    bubbles and fizzes.

    SUGAR SPIDERWEBS

    Spiders and their sticky

    webs go hand-in-hand with

    Halloween. Create spiderwebs

    that can be used to adorn cook-

    ies and cupcakes and give theman extra scary flair.

    Use a template of a spider-

    web and place this template

    under a piece of waxed paper to

    serve as your guide. Use store-

    bought or homemade royal

    icing to pipe out the shape of

    the spiderweb on top of the

    waxed paper. Allow to dry until

    completely hardened, then peel

    off the paper. Repeat the

    process for as many spiderwebs

    It really is a... "Taste you can trust at prices that are just right!"

    GHOULISH

    GRAVEYARD

    What would Halloween

    be without a haunted grave-

    yard? With a few tasty ingredi-

    ents, you can recreate this clas-

    sic look in a rich dessert.

    Crush graham crackers

    and mix with melted butter andsugar to create a cookie crust.

    Press into the bottom of a bak-

    ing pan. Prepare some choco-

    late pudding to pour on top of

    the crust and allow it to grow

    firm. Then sprinkle crushed

    chocolate cookies on top to

    create the appearance of soil.

    Push some rounded-edge,

    oblong cream-filled cookies

    into the pudding to serve as

    tombstones. Decorate withcandy worms, gummy skeletons

    and any other candy items that

    can add to the look. Blacklicorice sticks poked with black

    licorice strings can look like

    dead trees.

    SCARY GRIN

    Turn a whole watermelon

    into a jack-o-lantern and fill

    with fruit salad. This makes for

    a refreshing treat and provides

    an alternative to candy. Cut

    the watermelon as you would a

    pumpkin and hollow out the

    insides to use for the salad. Add

    sliced berries, grapes, apples,

    pears, and any other fruits you

    desire.

    include pertinent details, in-

    cluding your name, addressand the mailing address for

    the person being honored.

    Halloween is certain-

    ly known for thespooky decorations

    that adorn homes and for

    the creative costumes chil-

    dren put on to canvas the

    neighborhood. But for many

    youngsters, Halloween is all

    about the candy.

    In just a few hours, trick-

    or-treaters can accumulate a

    substantial amount of assorted

    chocolates, confections and

    other sweet treats. Onceeveryone has had their fill of

    their favorite items, candy

    often gets relegated to a giant

    bowl on the kitchen table,

    where it beckons each resi-

    dent who passes by.

    Rather than submitt-

    ing to the call of the candy

    and sacrificing your dental

    health as a result, enterpris-

    ing individuals can repur-

    pose that leftover Hallo-ween candy.

    INCENTIVES

    Parents can store extracandy to use as rewards for

    good behavior. Many parents

    use sweet treats as rewards for

    children learning to potty

    train. Rewarding older chil-

    dren for a job well done

    cleaning up their rooms or as

    a special treat for scoring a

    good grade on a test also can

    be a way to put the candy to

    good use.

    GINGERBREAD

    HOUSESChristmas is just two

    months after Halloween. Put

    candy into sealable baggies

    and use it come the holiday

    season when building ginger-

    bread houses. You will have a

    variety of different candies

    from which to choose and

    wont have to purchase any-

    thing new in order to deco-

    rate your creations.

    ADVENT CALENDARS

    Halloween candy can besaved to make an Advent

    calendar. This calendar tradi-

    tionally counts down to

    Christmas, revealing a date

    and a sweet treat behind

    each door. Instead of pur-

    chasing a readymade Advent

    calendar, families can get

    together and make one for a

    family craft as a way to recy-

    cle Halloween candy.

    GOODY BAGS

    Candy is a crowd-pleas-

    er, and leftover candy can be

    used in goody bags doled out

    at birthday parties. Keep the

    candy well-sealed to store

    away until it is needed to fill

    goodie bags. Add a few trin-

    kets that tie in with the

    theme of your party, and

    youre all set.

    On a similar note, left-over candy can be used to

    stuff a piata for a party.

    Piatas are available in many

    different themes and styles,

    making any occasion ripe for

    a piata.

    BAKING

    Cookies, brownies and

    cake bars taste even better

    with peanut butter cups,

    chips and chocolate candiesbaked inside. Some candy

    can be frozen for later use in

    baked goods. Baked goods

    can be enjoyed by the family

    or used for bake sales for

    schools and other organiza-

    tions.

    DONATIONS

    Hospitals, doctors offices

    and nursing homes may appre-

    ciate donations of candy for

    staff and visitors. You can visit

    different places to see if they

    would appreciate a candy

    donation.

    ADULT BEVERAGESHard candies can be used

    to add some flavor to adult

    beverages. Let the candy sit in

    the alcohol for a few hours

    and the candy will dissolve.

    Use a coffee filter to strain out

    any candy remnants.

    There are many different

    ways to put Halloween candy

    to use so it doesnt go to waste

    or end up ruining teeth and

    waistlines.

    The Rhino Theatre in

    Pompton Lakes pres-

    ents Les Misrables,

    one of the most popular musi-

    cals in the world, from Nov.

    8Dec. 1.

    Les Misrables packs an

    emotional wallop that has

    thrilled audiences internation-

    ally since opening in London

    over 28 years ago. Its been seen

    by over 60 million people in 42countries and took home eight

    Tony Awards including Best

    The timeless masterpiece,

    based on the novel by Victor

    Hugo and made into an Oscar-

    nominated film last year,

    for redemption against the

    tumultuous backdrop of the

    French Revolution. Hunted

    relentlessly for breaking his

    parole, he must leave his past

    behind while keeping his vow

    to raise a young orphan.

    Youll be astounded bythe explosion of talent, and

    moved by the performances,

    said producer Carmela

    Wolosz. And the brilliant

    songs will keep you engaged

    for the entire show.

    Memorable songs like

    Do You Hear the People

    Sing, I Dreamed a Dream,

    Castle on a Cloud, and

    Master of the House lend to

    this incredible story of the

    human spirit that has made

    Les Misrables Broadways

    most beloved musical.

    Leasing commercial

    space is a fact of life formany business owners.

    The expense of commercial

    leasing is considerable, but

    cost is not the only factor to

    consider when leasing a com-

    mercial space. The following

    are a few tips for businessowners when negotiating

    their commercial space lease.

    Enlist some professional

    help. While seasoned business

    owners may be able to negoti-

    ate their commercial lease on

    their own, new business own-ers often benefit from the

    services of real estate brokers

    and real estate lawyers. Real

    estate lawyers can negotiate

    your lease, explaining key

    terms and conditions that

    may prove confusing to first-time business owners. Real

    estate brokers can help you

    find the right location, and

    many real estate brokers have

    a long working history with

    landlords. Such relationships

    can make the negotiatingprocess easier, and they also

    can benefit business owners

    looking for the best possible

    location for their businesses.

    Real estate brokers often get

    first choice at the most desir-

    able locations, so teaming upwith an established real estate

    broker can increase your

    chances of landing a desirable

    property.

    Emphasize affordable renew-

    al options. The length ofcommercial leases favored by

    small businesses is often simi-

    lar to the length of a lease on

    a private residence. Though

    the language might be more

    complex than that of a pri-

    vate residence lease, the

    length of a commercial leaseagreement is typically one to

    two years. But business own-

    ers must be diligent regarding

    renewal options and the cost

    of such renewals. Come the

    end of your lease terms, you

    don't want to be met with a

    considerable and unexpectedhike in rent just as your busi-

    ness is starting to take off.

    Work to get the most favor-

    able renewal options possible

    so more of your operating

    budget can go into your prod-

    ucts and not toward your

    lease.Pay attention to extra fees.

    Many commercial leases

    include fees in addition to the

    monthly rent. Maintenance

    fees are common, and there

    may even be a separate set of

    maintenance fees when shar-

    ing commercial space. When

    negotiating your lease, ask to

    see a list of the costs and fees

    current tenants typically

    incur each month. When dis-cussing maintenance fees,

    confirm who must pay for less

    routine maintenance, such as

    hvac or plumbing repairs, and

    be sure to get such informa-

    tion included in the lease.

    When discussing such

    fees, inquire about utility

    costs as well. Utilities are

    often the responsibility of the

    tenant, but it still behooves

    business owners to confirm
