SEN. BILL MONNING

February is American
Heart Month
February is American Heart Month, and one way to show
your love to someone you care about is to learn about
heart disease and the risk factors associated with it.
In the United States, cardiovascular disease and
stroke cause one of every three deaths, or 2,200 deaths
per day. The most common type of heart disease is
coronary artery disease, which can lead to a heart
attack.
The risk of getting heart disease is increased by
your lifestyle, age and family history. According
to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC), about half of all Americans have at least one
of the three risk factors for heart disease: high blood
pressure, high cholesterol and/or smoking. Risk factors
for heart disease that cannot be controlled are your age
and family history.
The signs and symptoms of a heart attack
include chest pain or discomfort; upper body
pain or discomfort in the arms, back, neck, jaw or
upper stomach; shortness of breath; or nausea,
lightheadedness or cold sweats. If you or someone you
know has one of these symptoms, it could potentially

THEATER PREVIEW

Righteous rockout adult production of “Follies,” he was


invited to audition for “Godspell,”
thanks to his big voice.
“He auditioned with ‘Bohemian
Rhapsody,’ which fit perfectly with
the kind of music ‘Godspell’ has,”
said director Megan Griffin. “He
has a beautiful voice and a sweet
demeanor.”
“Usually Jesus is portrayed as very
stoic,” said Gonzalez, who sports an
impressive afro. “You never see him
playful or angry.”
Producer Michelle Griffin
(Megan’s mother) described the
cast of 19 teenagers ages 12-19 as
“interfaith.”
Megan said she plans to incor-
porate more of her Catholic theol-
ogy into the song “On the Willows,” to
make it more of a Passion Play with
stations of the cross and Jesus’s resur-
rection addressed more directly than
in some productions.
The show, by composer Stephen
Schwartz, opened off-Broadway in
1971 with a folk music score; its 2011
revival on Broadway offered a more
soft-rock experience, said Michelle,
whose own love for the show dates
back to her days in Catholic school,
where a “modern nun” sang the show’s
best-known song, “Day By Day.”
Chris Foster
“That’s a big part of my makings as
a Catholic,” she said.
The show is a challenge for its teen
