The Lost Princess Prayer (Tefillas Bas-Melech) is a wide-ranging tefillah companion to R' Yaakov Klein's bestselling book, "The Story of Our Lives". This beautiful work provides the reader with the unique experience of "davening" each chapter of the book, ensuring that we are immediately able to implement the lessons on an emotional level.

As the viceroy in Rebbe Nachman's iconic tale slowly extracts the lost princess from her captivity by emulating her traits, let's mirror this process by turning Torah into tefillah, reclaiming the soul of our tradition.

Tree in a House

This home has an added amenity in its kitchen aside for the oven and stove. The home for sale in Gulfport, Florida, is also home to a giant Oaktree in the middle of the kitchen. Stacey Purcell, owner of Gulfport Realty, said the “tree house” has proven difficult to sell due to the massive, centuries-old tree that passes through “There were people who walked in and walked out,” she said. Purcell noted that the house is “perfect” for a city with the motto: “Keep Gulfport weird.” “We have a lot of tree huggers here,” she said. “I’m surprised I haven’t sold this to a tree hugger.” The house is currently priced at $899,000. Take it or leave it.

Benny’s Spot

Bunch of Hot Air

que International Balloon Fiesta said they originally set the record for greatest mass hot air balloon ascent in 2010, when 329 balloons were launched at once. The festival broke its own record the following year with 345 balloons, but the record was then taken by a French event that featured more than 400 balloons. Paul Smith, the executive director of the Balloon Fiesta, said organizers decided to stop pursuing the record after it was claimed by the event in France, but organizers realized after the 2019 launch featured 524 balloons that they may have broken the record unintentionally. Tom Garrity, a spokesman for the festival, said he reached out to Guinness late last year to see if the documentation from the 2019 event would be sufficient to claim the record, and organizers have now received word from the record-keeping organization that their application has been approved. Want to be part of another skyhigh adventure? The 2021 Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta is scheduled to begin October 2. Sounds like a breath of fresh air.

Organizers of a hot air balloon festival were floating on air this week when they announced that they were awarded a Guinness World Record for launching 524 balloons at the same time. The organizers of the Albuquer-

A retired World War II vet was treated to a birthday party at a most unusual spot: Stop & Shop. Benny Ficeto was being feted for his 100th birthday. His former employer, the Stop & Shop in Edison, New Jersey, pulled out all the stops for the former serviceman. Aside from the friends and family who joined, Benny enjoyed a patriotic singing group and a cake. For an extra-special birthday present, Benny was presented with a veterans-only parking spot in his honor. “Benny’s Spot” will help give veterans easy access to the store, Stop & Shop spokesperson Stefanie Shuman explained. “It says in honor of Benny for his service to the store and his country,”
