Your supermarket shelves may be full of pomegranate juices with exciting labels, but most national brands are full of preservatives, added sugars, and empty promises. And that’s before they tell you that their “fresh” juice is made from concentrate, or bottled with processes that destroy nutrients and health benefits.

Please Don’t Forget About Collecting Lovely Brachos For Great Happiness! (Pomegranate, Dates, Fish, Apples, Carrots, Leek, Beets, Fish head, Gourd, Honey) S. Ament

When I read the FYI on mnemonics, I immediately thought of this one: VIEW — Very Interesting Every Week! S.H. DO YOU HAVE A MNEMONIC TO SHARE? SEND IT IN TO COMMENTS@ THEBPVIEW.COM!

A PLEASANT SURPRISE I just finished reading your second edition. When I saw a new read in town, I thought it was superfluous and that we have enough to read. But you proved me wrong. The Boro Park View surpasses anything

we’ve had. It’s beautiful and informative, and every article is interesting. From your ad layout, delicious recipes, the serial story — everything is a masterpiece. Thanks for keeping us entertained! E. Weber

THE CHERRY ON TOP Thank you for the most amazing free magazine! If you could include a crossword puzzle, it would definitely enhance it even more. A BP Resident THE BORO PARK VIEW RESPONDS: Check “The Kids Korner” every week to see which word game will be featured as our “Weekly Wordy.” This column will feature various word games on a rotational basis.

EDITOR’S BULLETIN: Please note that last’s week crossword puzzle featured a misspelling in #12 across. What should have been “heroes” was instead “hereos.” This caused #16 down, which should have been “tower,” to not fit into the allotted space. All submissions were entered into the raffle, whether or not those spaces were filled in. Thank you to one game participant for noticing the mistake.

Re: Supervise Your Strollers (Your Voice, Issue #2) Responding to A Concerned Mother: I’m just adding to your voice. Child Protective Services are busy these days trying to spot unsupervised children so that they can report the neglect. You do not want CPS to suspect your

family of child abuse! Giving your child to a babysitter is certainly easier than being subjected to endless investigations by Child Protective Services. Thank you so much for this wonderful magazine. It’s colorful for the kids and an enjoyable read for the adults! Thank you! Another Concerned Mother

Parshas

K i S av o By: Malka Schneps

It says in this week’s parsha, “All these curses will befall you, pursuing you and overtaking you to destroy you... Because you did not serve Hashem, your G-d, with happiness and with gladness of heart, over the abundance of everything.” (Devarim 28:45-47) Rabbeinu Bachya notes that feeling simcha in doing mitzvos is in itself a mitzvah. As frightening as it sounds, we can be keeping the mitzvos 100 percent perfectly, yet be exiled to galus because we did not serve Hashem with simcha. The Chofetz Chaim explains this to mean that a person must feel more simcha in his avodas Hashem than in the pleasures in this world. Similarly, the Arizal explains the pasuk to mean: “Because you did not serve Hashem with a joy greater than the joy caused by an abundance of everything.” According to the Arizal, it is not enough for a person to serve Hashem with simcha, but he must feel more simcha in serving Hashem than he feels from any other source of joy. But can a person be commanded to feel simcha? Is it really within our power to induce a certain feeling? It must be so, for the Torah does not demand from us the impossible. Yes, life can be painful and keeping mitzvos can seem challenging at times, but we must maintain our simcha. The question is: how? Indeed, how can a person maintain a feeling of simcha in carrying out mitzvos regardless of the challenges they face? One answer is that we must maintain a proper

perspective. How we view a situation affects how we feel about it. Imagine an architect who must sharpen his pencils from time to time complaining in misery about this chore. Did I study for so many years to become a professional pencil sharpener? he might lament. The reality is that he is not a professional pencil sharpener; sharpening pencils is just a small aspect of what is needed to do his overall job as an architect. If he would

It could help to step back and see the big picture of who they really are: an eved Hashem. step back and see the big picture rather than focusing on one detail out of context, he could see himself as he truly is: an architect, not a pencil sharpener. Likewise, if a person gets overwhelmed by a certain mitzvah, such as cleaning for Pesach, it could help to step back and see the big picture of who they really are: an eved Hashem, not a house scrubber. Another shift in perspective to help us find simcha in our avodas Hashem is to realize that what may feel restrictive may be exactly what saves us. This can be explained with a mashal: A man grew weary of living within the confines of a walled region. Just looking at the wall made him miserable. If only I could climb over that wall and leave this place — this place is a prison! he thought. In reality, the wall was

situated on the edge of a cliff. If the man had known that the wall was not there to restrict his freedom, but rather to protect him from falling, would he still feel confined by the wall, or would he feel grateful that the wall was there? So it is with the Torah. One who dwells within its confines is saved from losing both this world and the next. That being the case, a person should certainly feel great simcha when keeping the Torah. It is also worth noting that living according to the Torah should bring a person simcha. Hashem is perfect and the Torah is perfect, so if a person is lacking simcha, they should look within themselves for the solution — there may be something they are doing that is not right, or that they should be doing differently. Imagine a young girl who hears that the big riding toy outside the grocery store is great fun. The little girl climbs on top of the ride with eager anticipation, but after a few moments of sitting on the motionless ride, she begins to cry. “This isn’t fun at all,” she cries to her mother. Imagine how quickly that sorrow would turn to joy if the mother would tell the girl to insert a few quarters. Similarly, if we find that our avodas Hashem is lacking simcha, it would be worthwhile to find out if we are doing everything as it should be done. May we all serve Hashem with great simcha and be zoche to a new year filled with Hashem’s blessings. Kesivah v’chasimah tovah!

Bread is a nourishing food that homemakers throughout the centuries took pleasure in serving to their families. Few things are more comforting than the smell of homemade challah filling the home. However, the best challah starts with a high-caliber wheat. 72 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / September 18, 2019 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

Shira P. says that prior to discovering Isaac’s Wonder Mills, her challos weren’t always so tasty. “But then,” she says, “everything changed. Not only is the flour pre-sifted and well-packaged, but I also see a real difference in my challos. The texture is fabulous, with a crisp exterior and a fluffy interior. And the taste is heavenly. It’s so good, that I bake rolls for my kids to take to school every day, and I bake more challos than ever before. “And I can’t believe I used to sift flour,” she adds. “It took up so much time and made such a mess.” Indeed, sifting is one task that many bread bakers would rather do without. But for Shira, now it’s different. “No more mess,” Shira says, “no more leftovers, and — most of all — I feel good because I know I’m serving something that’s healthy and free of chemicals.”


It’s All About Consistency “Quality yields quality,” says Naomi Elberg, who runs a challah-baking business called TGIS (Thank Goodness It’s Shabbos) out of her home. “I’m not trying to sound clichéd, but it’s true. To produce a good product, you need really high-quality ingredients.” Naomi, an early childhood educator, found her true passion in baking. When she heard about Isaac’s Wonder Mills flour, she didn’t hesitate to try it, and today she uses it for the scrumptious challos and picture-perfect babkas she sells. “I’ve been disappointed with many different brands that I’ve tried. The flour from Isaac’s Wonder Mills is always consistent, especially the whole-wheat flour. Both challos and babkas come out amazing! I like the whole-wheat blend and also the all-purpose flour, because that’s what my customers ask for. I’ve also used the spelt flour and loved it, too. My kids complain whenever I use spelt instead of wheat, but they never complain when I use Isaac’s Wonder Mills spelt flour. They can’t tell that it’s any different than regular wheat flour.” With Isaac’s Wonder Mills, it’s simple to make delicious, homemade baked goods. Made from hard red or soft winter wheat, their flour is a good source of B vitamins and iron and the perfect complement to your favorite recipes. Plus, it comes pre-sifted in the highest-quality packaging.

Where Magic Meets Healthy

and so she embarked on a transformational journey of health. “My son was diagnosed with ADHD and I feel that offering my child healthy, unprocessed food made a real difference.”

Flour Power Isaac’s Wonder Mills was established in Haifa back in 1921, and they still use the same trusted milling process. Over the years, Isaac’s Wonder Mills has built longstanding relationships with reliable wheat growers with whom they work personally on a day-to-day basis. That’s how Isaac’s Wonder Mills brings awesome goodness to your table. It’s clear that they take pride in their wheat, treating this essential product with the respect it deserves. Their wheat is well cleaned, triple-sifted, and ventilated at the right temperature while at the mill, during transport, and anywhere it’s stored to ensure insect-free flour. Isaac’s Wonder Mills takes the healthy flour revolution to the next level, working with the latest technology to bring you the most wholesome blends of milled wheat. Grain cultivation is an art, and Yair Wagner has it down pat. Decades of research, testing, measuring, expertise and dedication have helped him develop an impeccable combination of the best varieties of kernels to produce just the right flour mixture. “There are many kinds of flour in the market today. Wheat flour is not just a uniform white-colored powder; it comes in unique variations just like any other fruit or vegetable,” says Aron Gancfried, product manager at Isaac’s Wonder Mills. “They each have their unique taste and properties, and so when we develop a product, it goes through a development process of measuring and combining anywhere from four to six varieties of wheat to produce the perfect flour with the optimal capacity to rise into light,

Meet Eve Scaba-Elenhorn, Certified Health Coach, Fitness Trainer, National Gourmet Chef and founder of Flavorful FIT, who agrees with Shira. “Isaac’s Wonder Mills is the best flour you’ll ever find. I’ve worked with many spelt flours and tried at least ten different brands until my friend, a private chef, revealed her secret: She uses Isaac’s Wonder Mills Flour. The flour comes pre-sifted, so it’s lighter, airier and the texture is very refined; it’s not clumpy, and it doesn’t crumble. Their spelt flour is also less dense than other brands of flour. That’s why the dough rises so well and the challos are really nice and fluffy.” Having been through personal health challenges, Eve was yearning to understand how foods affect her own health and that of her family, The fluffiest challos start with the best-quality flour.

PREVENTING INFESTATION • Before purchasing, check for rips or tears in the packaging. • Make sure the bags have air in them — that the bugs haven’t punctured them.

• Use the oldest products first to ensure freshness and proper stock rotation.

• Store products in air-tight, insect-proof containers.

• Store infrequently used products in the refrigerator or freezer.

There are several reasons for the minhag of eating round challos on Rosh Hashanah. One is that since round challos have no end, it symbolizes that we be inscribed a year of unending goodness. Another common reason is that on Rosh Hashanah we coronate Hashem as our only King, and we thus weave the challah in the shape of a crown. In honor of Rosh Hashanah, we present three simple methods for truly royal-looking challos befitting this yom tov of malchiyos. Wishing all of Klal Yisroel a gut gebentcht yahr.

Six Strands This method is extremely simple and perfect for those who are makpid to braid with six, for yud-beis challos.

I make six challos from a 6-pound challah dough, each one in an 8-inch round pan.

80 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / September 18, 2019 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770


1. Divide the 6-pound dough in into six even pieces. Work with one part at a time.

2. Divide each part

into six even pieces.

3. Roll each piece into a strand

that is approximately 12 inches long.

4. Lay the first two strands (1 and 2) side by side vertically in front of you.

6. Lay another

strand (5) vertically in center on top.

5. Lay another

two strands (3 and 4) horizontally over the first two.

7. Lay the final strand (6) horizon-

tally in center on top of the others.

8. You should now have three strands extending on each of the four

sides. Braid each set of three and tuck it under the center of the challah. Strands 1 and 2, as well as 3 and 4, should be a lot closer than illustrated. (They should touch each other.)

Two Strands This method results in the prettiest challos, resembling a crown or a rose. They also make gorgeous bilkelach. Once you get the hang of it, it doesn’t take long — in fact when you are familiar enough with this method, it takes practically two to five minutes to braid a challah!

1. Divide the 6-pound

2. Divide each part into two

pieces One of the pieces should be a little bigger than the other.

3. Roll the smaller piece into a strand about 14 inches long and the larger one to about 18 inches long.

4. Lay the longer piece vertically in front of you.

5. Lay the shorter strand

horizontally on top of the first strand, placing it a drop below the center of the vertical strand.

6. Take the top half of the vertical strand

and fold it over the horizontal strand (it should fall to the right side). You should now have two pieces at the bottom, side by side.

7. Take the two parts of

the vertical strand and twist them twice by taking the left side over to the right side.

8. Take the right half of the

horizontal strand, and weave it over the first (right) strand and under the second (left) strand.

Worldwide Campaign Has Jewish Community Coming Through for Family of Fallen NYPD Officer The Jewish community had an opportunity to show its true colors last Friday afternoon when the family of an NYPD officer who died last spring was presented with a generous gift, the results of a crowdfunding campaign that drew donors from as far away as Yerushalayim and the United Kingdom. Officer Marc St. Arromand, 42, died on April 11 when he lost control of his motorcycle as he was driving to work on the Belt Parkway in Queens. Hoping to show the Jewish community’s appreciation for the NYPD and

the children. St. Arromand’s widow and children came to Toys 4 U’s Boro Park store on Friday afternoon, where they were joined by members of the NYPD and several police liaisons. They were presented with a $12,000 check from Oizrim, an amount that included the value of the toy store gift card. Racing gleefully up and down the aisles, the children filled two carts with toys, with one saying it was one of the happiest days of his young life. “It was a beautiful opportunity to create a kiddush Hashem and to show the family and the NYPD just how much we value our police officers,” said Rabbi Kahan. “It was the least we could do to honor the memory of Officer St. Arromand.”

NYC to Take Responsibility for Tree Damage to Sidewalks

to honor the memory of the fallen officer who one week earlier had been part of the police escort for the Skulener Rebbe’s levayah, Rabbi Yisroel Kahan of the Monseybased Oizrim created a fundraising page, setting a goal of $10,000. It took just over 24 hours for the campaign to surpass its goal, ultimately hitting $11,000, thanks to the generosity of more than 400 contributors. Comments left on the page in memory of the fourteen-year veteran of the NYPD, offered messages of solace, including “In honor of this dedicated police officer who heroically gave his life to protect our city,” and “We salute our brave law enforcement officers and honor the memory of Marc St. Arromand. May his family find comfort in the good name and wonderful example of what it means to be a ‘mentch’ that he left behind.” Going the extra mile for the five St. Arromand children, Rabbi Kahan reached out to Meilich Miller, a buyer for Toys 4 U. Miller conferred with company CEO, Yossi Itzkowitz, who issued a $1,000 Toys 4 U gift card to

City homeowners whose sidewalks have been damaged by the roots of city-owned trees can heave a sigh of relief now after an announcement made last week by Mayor Bill de Blasio. CBS News reported that the mayor said that effective September 10, the city would take responsibility for its own trees, with 50,000 previously issued tickets to be reviewed. This can potentially save homeowners thousands of dollars in expenses. “If you’ve got an active violation… we’re going to go and take another look, and if our folks from the Parks Department and DOT say, ‘Yup, that’s caused by a city tree,’ then we’ll erase that violation,” said the mayor. The timeline for the repairs remains up in the air, with officials reporting that they hope to fix 2,500 sidewalks annually. This could mean it would take 20 years to repair the 50,000 cracked sidewalks that have already been reported.

CHAPTER THREE Recap: In 1944, a woman arrives at the Christian orphanage in Bratislava with her two-year-old child. She pleads that the orphanage take him in, and after Gustav begs for it, Theodore, the second-in-command of the institution, grudgingly agrees. The woman tells Gustav that the boy is Jewish, like Gustav, and that his name is Yosef Ludmir. She gives Gustav a paper with his information and the address of his uncle in Eretz Yisroel. In Yerushalayim, Elisheva visits her father in the nursing home and tells him about her financial woes. Yerushalayim

“You’re asking why, Tatty?” He ate while she spoke and folded his napkin over and over again. “We’re asking the same thing... I know that there are people for whom it is accepted that the parents of the couple pay for the first bris, but we never even thought about that. Then, a month before Miri had the baby, I went to a bris that the mechutanim made. Yaakov’s younger sister had a baby, and they invited us.” Elisheva’s eyes stared almost blankly at the fish on her father’s plate. “The mechuteniste made me feel very good. She’s a very warm woman; I’m happy for Miri that she has such a mother-in-law. As we were talking, she casually mentioned that they had ordered the hall and chosen the menu and made all the arrangements with the head waiter. And then she said, ‘Of course, if my Sarah would have wanted to make the choices, I would have left it to her, but she said that if we’re paying, then we have the right to choose.’” Elisheva smiled. “The mechuteniste quickly added that the other side had paid half, but because they live far away,

she was left to arrange it all. And I’ve been worrying about it ever since.” She filled her father’s cup with seltzer. “Almost all of Miri’s salary goes to paying their mortgage on that tiny apartment. I really don’t think they can pay for a bris right now. But we can’t either! Part of my salary also goes to the mortgage, and to pay up debts from her wedding, not to mention what I need for Tzippy now... And even though people say that you can make a bris on a much smaller scale, something at home, it will still cost something. Where am I getting that money from? Another loan? What’s this expense going to come in place of? Devoiry’s root canal that we’ve waited nearly half a year to take care of? And anyway, where exactly am I supposed to make a bris in my house?” An outsider listening to this conversation would have surely thought that this daughter was trying to play on her father’s heartstrings, to extract as much money as she could from him. But both Elisheva and her father knew that this was not the case. Her father didn’t even have a hundred shekel in cash to give her. The money

The Slovakian director of the Lucius Jan Catholic Children’s Home was an avowed anti-Semite. He never dreamed that there would be Jews among the young charges in his care, certainly not after the ruling party headed by Hlinka, his teacher and mentor, had managed to gain autonomy for Slovakia. But it was a fact, and the one responsible for it happening was his second-in-command, Theodore Heinke, a Slovak of German extraction. One morning, in March 1942, he appeared in the Home’s office and placed a frightened toddler on the rug. The child was at most three years old. The director wrinkled his nose. “Zhid,” he spat. “Could be,” Heinke said calmly, settling into an armchair. “But it’s all a matter of decision. If it bothers you to think about it, then you can also decide that he’s not.” “Where did you find him?” “Behind a gate.” He lit a cigarette and after a moment added, “In the name of fairness, I saw the Hlinka Brigades walking away from the street with a group of expellees. It’s likely his parents were among them.” The child sucked his thumb avidly and looked at the two men. “So why didn’t you run after them to return the child to them?” the director burst out. “Where is your Slovakian patriotism?

Trump to Announce Gun Control Legislation BACKGROUND: According to recent reports, President Trump is set to announce a set of proposals on gun control as he seeks to get gun control legislation passed by Congress. According to CBS News, the White House has been talking to Senators Chris Murphy (D-CT), Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Pat Toomey (RPA) about the proposed legislation. This is not the first time that Toomey and Manchin have collaborated on

104 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / September 18, 2019 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

the issue of guns. In 2013 they sponsored a gun control amendment that ultimately failed. What the president’s proposal will include is unclear, but all of the above senators are on record backing stronger background checks and closing existing loopholes. In the most recent Democratic debate, presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke called for a mandatory buyback of all military-style weapons such as the AR-15 and AK-47. However, his proposal received sharp criticism from his fellow Democrat, Senator Chris Coons (D-CT). Coons said that such extreme proposals would only serve to undermine the bipartisan effort for sensible gun control legislation. Senator Toomey put out a statement backing Senator Coons, saying that “this rhetoric (of O’Rourke) undermines and hurts bipar-


tisan efforts to actually make progress on common sense gun safety efforts, like expanding background checks.” WHY IT MATTERS: Mass shootings have plagued

cities and towns across America. Ever since the most recent shootings in Dayton and El Paso, there is a strong consensus that something must be done. Polling data shows that a majority of Americans want the government to act. Democrats have generally been on record favoring gun control, but their efforts have been stymied by Republican opposition and by the efforts of a robust Second Amendment lobby. Republicans are now concerned that growing demand for sensible gun legislation among suburban Americans may cost them support in the upcoming elections. Therefore, there appears to be a window of opportunity for a bipartisan approach to some limited form of gun control legislation. However, to pass legislation, the president must overcome strong opposition from some Republican senators such as Ted Cruz (R-TX). Cruz has vowed to oppose any legislation that goes as far as the 2013 Toomey-Manchin amendment. The president can also expect strong opposition from the NRA (National Rifle Association), which has been vocal and forceful in fighting any new restrictions on the sale of guns.

Iran Looms Large BACKGROUND: National Security Advisor John Bolton resigned (or was fired) this past Tuesday, purportedly over differences that he had with the president regarding maintaining the campaign of maximum pressure on Iran. On Shabbos, Iranian-backed Houthi rebels successfully attacked Saudi oil refineries, disrupting 50 percent of the Saudi daily oil output and causing crude prices to rise. This past week, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo stated that President Trump is willing to meet with Iranian President Rouhani without any preconditions. IN-DEPTH: On July 14, 2015, the JCPOA (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action) was signed between the government of Iran and the P5 (China, France, Russia, UK, USA), + 1 (Germany) and the European Union. The agreement placed restrictions on Iran’s ability to enrich uranium that is necessary to create nuclear weapons. It also implemented an intrusive monitoring system overseen by the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Association). Oversight was enhanced by modern technologies that would enable the detection of Iranian infractions. In exchange, Iran would

receive sanction relief and have its overseas assets unfrozen. The deal received much criticism as it did not deal with Iran’s many nefarious activities such as support for Hezbollah in Lebanon and other terror groups. With the economic benefits reaped from the deal, Iran would be free to increase its support for such groups and continue to be a destabilizing force in the Middle East. Additionally, the deal put no limits on Iran’s ability to develop missiles and rockets. Lastly, the deal had a sunset clause of ten years, when Iran would once again be free to proceed and expand its nuclear programs. The deal’s supporters acknowledged its limitations, but insisted that realistically this was the best deal that Iran would agree to sign. They argued that the nuclear issue was an overwhelming priority, and even though Iran could potentially continue to be a conventional menace, the nuclear threat was successfully removed. Furthermore, there was nothing in the deal that would stop countries from sanctioning Iran if it continued to be a state sponsor of terrorism. Lastly, if warranted, there was nothing in the agreement that precluded the reimplementation of sanctions or even the use of military force against Iran after the deal sunsetted. The deal received strong opposition from most Republicans and from a majority of the Israeli political establishment. However, after the agreement was implemented, many Israeli and American military and intelligence officials agreed that the deal was working. U.S. and Israeli intelligence believed that Iran was abiding by the agreement. The United States Director of National Intelligence, Dan Cotes, and IDF Chief of Staff, Gadi Eisenkott, both testified that the deal in its current limited form was working. On May 8, 2018, President Donald Trump announced that he was withdrawing the United States from the JCPOA and reimplementing sanctions on Iran as part of a campaign of maximum pressure. He called the deal negotiated by President Obama “a horrible one-sided deal that should have never, ever been made.” He claimed that he would be able to force Iran back to the table to negotiate a much better deal. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu strongly backed Trump’s withdrawal from the agreement, as did U.S. ally and Iranian foe, Saudi Arabia. However, the deal did not entirely collapse as the European Union actively sought to preserve it and work around U.S. sanctions. Trump was unable to get American allies on board with his policies, and the campaign of maximum pressure was mostly an American enterprise. Facing increased pressure and economic stress, Iran began to lash out. It threatened to back out of the

September 18, 2019 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / 105 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770


nuclear deal and began to enrich uranium in violation of the agreement. Iran seized ships in the Straits of Hormuz and downed a U.S. drone. These attacks received only a minimal response. Iran continued with its support of Hezbollah, Bashar Assad of Syria and the Houthi rebels in Iran. On Shabbos, Iran upped the ante with the Houthi attack on the Saudi refineries. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo put the responsibility for the attack squarely on Iran. At the recent G7 meeting in France, French President Emanuel Macron sought to set up a meeting between President Trump and Iranian Foreign Minister Zarif. The meeting did not materialize, but the idea took root. Iranian President Rouhani will be in the United States for the upcoming meeting of the United Nations General Assembly. According to Secretary Pompeo, President Trump is willing to meet Rouhani without preconditions. So far, Rouhani has refused to meet with Trump unless some sanctions are removed or weakened, hence the disagreement that led to Bolton’s resignation/ firing. WHY IT MATTERS: Trump needs a foreign policy win. His engagement with North Korea has not yet produced the desired results. His attempts to engage the Taliban and negotiate a withdrawal from Afghanistan backfired and failed. So far, his Iranian policy has hit a dead end. Trump will need to show that he can get a deal done, and that his campaign of maximum pressure can secure a better arrangement with Iran. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu initially opposed Trump’s meeting with Iranian officials. However, he has since expressed support for Trump’s negotiating capabilities and expressed the belief that Trump will hold a tight line in negotiations. Should Trump succeed in securing a better deal with Iran, it will burnish his credentials as a capable statesman. It will enable him to fight off Democratic attempts to portray him as a novice who is out of his depth and will protect him from accusations of foreign policy incompetence.

The Meats on Your Menu

Recipes by: F. Deutsch Food styling and photography by: Miriam Pessy Wercberger

Preparing meat for yom tov is a labor of love. Enhance your menu with these gourmet dishes to dress up your yom tov table. These meats freeze beautifully. Here’s a tip to avoid the necessity of basting meat when baking in liquid: Line the pan with a piece of parchment paper large enough to wrap around the meat, and then cover the pan tightly with silver foil. This method helps the meat retain its moisture throughout the cooking process.

Club Steak Tower

114 / THE BORO PARK VIEW


Club Steak Tower This recipe is a yom tov staple in my home. It has a really delicious taste and a gorgeous presentation.

CLUB STEAKS 4 club steaks 4 large Spanish onions Oil

CLUB STEAKS 1. Slice the onions into rings. Saute in oil on medium-high heat, stirring frequently until caramelized. Set aside. 2. Sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a skillet. Sear for two minutes on each side.

Black pepper

3. Transfer the steaks to a 9x13 pan. Rub in the crushed garlic, and top with half of the onions, reserving the rest for the topping. Add the wine.

3 fresh garlic cloves, crushed

4. Bake covered at 400° for one hour.

Salt

½ cup red wine

POTATOES 4 russet potatoes 3 garlic cloves Salt and pepper, to taste

TOPPING Mushrooms 1 lb. baby bella mushrooms, peeled, cleaned and sliced 2 T. oil ¼ tsp. salt Dash of pepper Remaining caramelized onions Chicken 1 lb. dark chicken stew ¼ cup oil ¼ cup mayonnaise 1 tsp. onion soup mix 1 tsp. garlic powder 1 tsp. paprika ¼ tsp. black pepper

Note: If you don’t use meat, you can substitute turkey steaks for the club steaks. Sprinkle the steaks with salt and black pepper, dip into flour, sear and top with half of the onions and add wine. Bake at 300° for 3 hours, until the liquid evaporates.

MASHED POTATOES 1. Cook potatoes with garlic cloves. When draining, reserve a 1/2 cup liquid. Once potatoes are mashed, add the reserved liquid. The potatoes will look wet immediately, but the water will be absorbed after a while, resulting in a fluffier texture. This step is especially helpful when preparing potatoes on erev yom tov for the following day.

TOPPING 1. Mix mushrooms with oil, salt and pepper. Spread out in a single layer in a pan. Roast for 20 minutes at 400°. 2. Mix chicken marinade ingredients and marinate for an hour. 3. Lay chicken in a single layer in a pan. Top with mushrooms and other half of caramelized onions. 4. Bake covered at 400° for 40 minutes.

TO ASSEMBLE Place a layer of mashed potatoes over each club steak. Top with mushroom-onion-chicken mixture. The steaks and chicken mixture freeze very well. Note: All this sounds like a lot of cooking time, but it really can be combined since everything bakes at the same temperature. I put the mushrooms in to roast at the same time I put the club steaks into the oven, and then I mix them with the chicken and caramelized onions before returning them to the oven.

Braised Brisket This is a yom tov family favorite — and so simple to prepare. It’s a good thing this recipe calls for such an affordable cut of meat, since I can never make enough.

INGREDIENTS 4 lb. second-cut brisket

3 leeks, white parts only

Salt

2 stalks celery

Pepper

6 garlic cloves

Oil

1½ cups grape juice

2 onions

1½ cups chicken broth

DIRECTIONS 1. Season brisket with salt and pepper. Rub into meat. 2. Heat oil in large skillet. When oil is hot, sear brisket on high heat until browned on all sides. (Tip: Use two spatulas to easily turn over the roast.) Transfer to a large baking pan. 3. Dice the onions, leeks, celery and garlic. Saute on medium-high until soft, stirring frequently. 4. Pour vegetables over brisket. Add the grape juice and chicken soup. 5. Bake covered at 300° for 4 hours, with parchment paper loosely wrapped around on all sides to retain moisture. 6. For best results when slicing, refrigerate the meat and gravy separately overnight, and place the meat into the freezer for half an hour before slicing. Remove from freezer and slice. Brisket gets sliced against the grain. 7. Slice and pour gravy over meat.

THE BORO PARK VIEW / 125


The last few decades of the nineteenth century saw a degree of wealth that was not seen in this country before or after. Glorious mansions... Servants at one’s beck and call... Art collections to rival those of museums... There was no end to the money, no end to the riches. But was that the entire story? The term “Gilded Age” was coined way back in 1873 — in the title of a satirical novel written by Mark Twain and Charles Dudley Warner, which mocked the social issues of the time. Because if one thing was certain, it was this: The era may have appeared glamorous, but there was much grime hiding under that veneer of gold.

126 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / September 18, 2019 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

PEELING BACK THE LAYERS

In the late 1800s, the explosion of industrialization meant there was more money streaming through the economy, prompting an exponential rise in the wages of skilled workers. But the peace of mind the increased paychecks brought came along with a flood of immigrants entering the country — because why not? There was money to be made, fortunes to be found. And then things soured fast. With the new wave of immigration, there was a sudden oversupply of workers, which soon translated into a desperate and unhappy working class, unchecked dangers at the workplace, and appalling liv-


ing conditions — while railroad and business magnates grew ever wealthier. This contrast between the fabulously wealthy nouveau riche and their poor and underprivileged employees provided much fodder for cartoonists at the time, who found it only too easy to depict the tremendous gap between the classes. And since money is power, at least when it comes to politics, it was the wealthy, again, who had the upper hand when it came to electing the defenders of the Constitution. It was only too easy for the upper class to back politicians who would then make sure financial monopolies remained unregulated, allowing the money machines to continue grinding off the backs of the working class.

GRAND TOURS AND GRANDER HOMES

This cartoon depicts the wealthy, sitting on bags of “millions,” floating along on a raft held up by weary workers.

In an almost direct offense to their impoverished workers, the enormously wealthy families of the Gilded Age lived in luxury and opulence to a degree that is rarely found today. Most notably, the nouveau riche of the time — including the Vanderbilts, Rockefellers, Astors, Berwinds, Carnegies, and so on — built mansions that were so incredibly magnificent that they more resembled museums and palaces than places to reside. There was subtle (and often not-soThis cartoon portrays the way American “moneybags” and subtle) competition among upper-class monopolies held total control over the Senate, thus managing to fill families when it came to building these their moneybags some more. mansions and establishing themselves as people worth rubbing shoulders with.

MILLIONAIRE’S ROW, NYC, AND THE VANDERBILTS This mansion, known as Petit Chateau, was built for William Kissam Vanderbilt and his wife, and it served as their stepping stone into high society. As magnificent as this mansion was, it took a social visit from a member of the established Astor family to prove to the world that this nouveau riche couple had “made it.” The Petit Chateau was torn down in 1926, and today a Zara store is located in the new building’s retail space. This mansion was built by Cornelius Vanderbilt II, an elder brother of William Kissam Vanderbilt. Cornelius II used his father’s inheritance to throw down three houses to make place for this beautiful new home, and the popular belief was that he’d set out to dwarf his brother’s home. At the time, this mansion was the largest singlefamily home in New York City. This home was also torn down in 1926, and a department store took its place. These three mansions, known as the Triple Palaces, were built for the three daughters of yet a third Vandervilt brother. Another industrialist by the name of Henry Clay Frick once passed these homes and declared, “This is all I shall ever want.” While Frick managed to lease one of the three homes at one point, he never succeeded in purchasing it. Ironically, while these homes were since torn down (the stores of H&M, Juicy Couture, etc., stand in their place today), Frick’s home still stands.

as gilt and plaster moldings, and attendees of a formal meal would be waited upon by footmen standing alongside the walls. Another room in the home, typically an office or library, would be designated for the man of the house. This rich-colored or wood-paneled room would contain bookshelves, comfortable chairs, a large desk and some more paintings. Then there was the salon, which was a room used primarily by the women of the home. It would be designed in softer colors and filled with light-colored furniture and delicate tea tables — a space perfect for women to entertain their friends. Upstairs would find the family bedrooms, with a separate dressing room and bathroom for each member of the family. After 1900, newer mansions introduced the showerhead, which was a newfangled piece of plumbing that was fast gaining popularity. And if one mansion boasted showerheads, then so would the next...

THE OTHER HALF OF THE HOUSEHOLD The upper floors of Gilded Age mansions held the servants’ quarters, which were divided into two wings — one for the women and one for the men. Each bedroom contained a plain bed, dresser and washing stand, and since there were very many servants to a household, there were very many rooms… A full staff was required to keep a house of this size running. That’s the reason upper-class families would generally employ four chamber and parlor maids, who would tend to the family’s quarters and the downstairs living areas; a laundress, who was tasked with washing and caring for an overabundance of clothes; a linen woman, who would do the ironing; scrubbing maids, who were tasked with more heavy cleaning; a butler, whose duties included overseeing the proper running of the home; four footmen, who waited tables and assisted otherwise around the house; and, finally, a head chef and two kitchen assistants, who prepared all the food. Generally, most of the staff was comprised of immigrants. All the members of the staff were expected to rise at 6 a.m. each morning and head to bed at 11 p.m. They were to check in and out each time they left the house, and after a day or afternoon off, were expected to be back at the house at 11 p.m. There was also clear etiquette to be followed when in domestic service, and an article published in 1901 titled “A Few Rules for the Manners of Servants in Good Families” listed a few basic rules for

Rudolph Stanish had a neat list that included all the qualities he’d need to succeed as chef, and it’s possible that employees in other fields would do well to glance at a few items on this list as well… 1.

Impeccable manners and a neat mode of dress

2.

Humility

3.

Complete devotion and loyalty to his employers

4.

Endurance to get through long working days

5.

Meticulous attention to detail

6.

Habitual use of short answers like “Yes, ma’am” or “No, ma’am”

7.

The ability to create new menus and recipes

132 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / September 18, 2019 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

the members of domestic staff to abide by. First, a servant was always to stand quietly, with their hands still, when being spoken to. A servant was also not to talk to his or her employers until spoken to. The only exception to this rule was when a member of the staff was to deliver a message, but even then, it was to be repeated in as few words as possible. Overall, servants were expected to know their place and quietly attend to the family’s needs. According to Norah Kavanagh, who was a chambermaid at the Breakers in Newport, her job was not demeaning in the least. She knew what was expected of her and did it well. She was proud to be appreciated for her unassuming manner, intelligence and cleanliness, and she never sought employment in a different field.


While at work, Kavanagh wore a simple black dress and white apron — her maid’s uniform, which she’d change daily. Her duties included cleaning the hallways, bedrooms and bathrooms, and supplying them with fresh linens at least once a day. According to Norah, she filled a role that was very necessary during that era, and in contrast to the scores of pathetic and penniless immigrants, she was very pleased at the opportunities immigrating to the United States had provided for her. Rudolph Stanish was also in domestic service as a youngster, serving as a kitchen boy in another Newport mansion. Looking back at his years in service, he remembers some of his duties. “As a kitchen boy I shined the stove, this monstrous stove,” he said. The daily polishing of the “monstrous” stove required loads of blackening polish and large muslin rags, and that was only the beginning... Then came the brass water tank, which was also polished daily, only with brass polish, and the many copper pots and pans, which he’d polish with a paste made with flour, salt and vinegar. Then came the washing of all the muslin rags used to do the kitchen cleaning, because that was also the kitchen boy’s job... Those would have to be soaked and scrubbed until they came out perfectly clean. Stanish was also responsible for cleaning and preparing vegetables and unpacking groceries. Depending on the amount of guests attending each meal, this often amounted to quite a bit of work. But he was a good worker, willing to work and eager to please. “It was a style of living that... I can see the beauty of it now,” Stanish said. “It made wonderful people out of the likes of us… It was a stepping stone.” And indeed it was. With his bucketloads of polish and determination, Stanish eventually advanced up the ladder until he began cooking at 18 years of age. Eventually, he became head chef in another household.

THE END OF AN ERA So… what happened to all of these grand homes? Why is it that so many were demolished, and the remaining few operate as museums? Why did the owners flee? What knocked over the first domino in the row was the introduction of the income tax in 1913. Suddenly, wealthy business owners found that their coffers were emptying a little faster than they did in the past. Then, just three years later, the modern estate tax was established, upsetting the coffers once again… With less money to spare, it was suddenly becoming increasingly difficult for employers to hold on to their staff. Then came World War I, which very much changed the way the middle class looked at employment, and this, too, caused a great decrease in domestic service. With these changes came a sudden burst of home sales, especially in New York City, and real estate developers quickly realized how much money was hiding in the properties under these mansions. Soon tremendous department stores and other commercial buildings took the places of these palatial homes, and the face of Fifth Avenue changed drastically. For some, the selling of their mansions simply meant moving on to another home, but some took advantage of public curiosity and allowed people to tour these homes — the proceeds went to charity — prior to their demolishment. Yet other homes — think Newport mansions — were sold to preservation societies, and eventually, these opened to the public for good. Nowadays these mansions serve as museums, portraying the extravagant lifestyle of the wealthy during the Gilded Age. Because no matter the grime hiding underneath, there’s no doubt the gilding was ever glamorous.

NEWPORT, RHODE ISLAND VISITING

A three-and-a-half-hour trip from Boro Park takes you to Newport, Rhode Island, a world-class vacation spot. Home to spectacular scenery, awe-inspiring architecture and a synagogue that’s a historical gem, Newport is considered a shining jewel in the coastal crown of New England. Historic Newport exudes a quaint, touristy and exciting atmosphere. All the attractions and hotels featured are in the same area, near the harbor, and some within walking distance of each other, which adds another dimension of beauty to this trip.

Your first stop should be the Newport Visitor Center, where you can acquire information on all attractions, get maps and buy tickets. There’s a trolley that leaves the visitor center every 20 minutes and makes stops at the mansions and at the harbor. Touro Synagogue is a few-minute walk from there, as are some boating activities.

THE MANSIONS Newport is most famously known for its impressive mansions. During the Gilded Age, Newport, Rhode Island, was the summer playground for the rich and famous. Many prominent,wealthy families, like the Vanderbilts and the Astors, built their summer “cottages” there. Not your typical cottage at all, these summer homes were magnificent and opulent. Ten of them are open to tourists, and one is a museum. Others have been converted into upscale hotels. The two most popular tourist mansions are The Breakers and Marble House, both Vanderbuilt family homes. They are toured via selfguided audio tours, with a choice of a main tour or a children’s tour.

THE BREAKERS 44 Ochre Point Avenue Newport, RI 02840

The Breakers, the grandest of Newport’s summer homes, is a symbol of the Vanderbilt family’s preeminent social and financial status in turn-of-the-century America. The property, home to a wooden mansion called The Breakers, was purchased by Cornelius Vanderbilt II, a grandson of Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt. He commissioned architect Richard Morris Hunt to design this 70-room Italian Renaissance-style palazzo, and Hunt directed an international team of craftsmen, artisans and artists to assist with the extravagant furnishings, fixtures and sculpting in the mansion.

MARBLE HOUSE 596 Bellevue Avenue Newport, RI 02840

Marble House, another Vanderbilt-owned home, was built between 1888 and 1892 by William K. Vanderbilt, the younger brother of Cornelius Vanderbilt II. The cost of the house was reported in contemporary press accounts to be $11 million, of which $7 million was spent on 500,000 cubic feet of marble.

THE CLIFF WALK Newport, RI 02840

The Cliff Walk is a public access walk that combines the natural beauty of the Newport shoreline with the architectural history of Newport’s Gilded Age. Spanning 2.5 miles, parts of the walk are a rough trail over the natural, rugged New England rocky shoreline, where walkers are treated to a 360-degree breathtaking view. With the harbor on one side and the backs of some of the mansions on the other, this shoreline experience is a spectacular one.

TOURO SYNAGOGUE 85 Touro Street Newport, RI 02840 This synagogue uplifts the Newport, Rhode Island, experience. As the oldest surviving shul in the United States, Touro Synagogue resonates deeply. On a national level, it is considered to be one of the most architecturally distinguished buildings of 18th century America. Learn the fascinating history behind the shul’s existence, and be amazed at this little shul’s historic value. George Washington, the first president of the United States, traveled to Rhode Island to visit this shul. He later reassured the congregation in an eloquent letter that the Jews, “stock of Abraham,” are a very valued and welcomed community to the United States. He promised them all the freedoms offered by the Constitution. A copy of this letter, written in Washington’s elegant cursive writing, is prominently displayed near the synagogue. While visiting, take note of the trapdoor the Sefardi congregants built under the bimah, a tradition that may have stemmed from their horrific experiences during the Spanish Inquisition. For information about the status of the Touro eruv or minyan, contact Rabbi Mandel at 401-847-4794, ext. 203, or email RabbiMandel@tourosynagogue.org

THE HARBOR

It’s not for nothing that Newport has earned the nickname “Sailing Capital of the World.” Alongside the harbor are many opportunities for nautical recreational activities. Sailboats, water shuttle tours, speed boat cruises and parasailing are provided by a variety of vendors dotting the shoreline. There are mainly public cruises (or private chartered tours), but for the adventurous, there’s also the option of renting a kayak to take out on your own. You can make advance reservations, but you can also walk along the harbor to find the one that suits your preferences best.

Hands trembling, a pale Anschel Moses Rothschild emptied the contents of his pockets and counted the sum total. It was less than half of the 500 gulden being asked of him. Without a word said in self-defense, Anschel Moses gave over the money, promising to repay the remainder in installments.

146 / THE BORO PARK VIEW


ust a few months earlier, before Anschel Moses married and moved to Sniatyn, he had served as the shamash for Reb Hershel of Zidichov, enjoying a special relationship with the Rebbe. Suddenly, he found himself suspected of pilfering a precious pouch from the Rebbe’s personal drawer! Few knew about the hidden fortune, a fund for almanos and yesomim, and it was almost natural to assume that Anschel Moses, who had access to the Rebbe’s home, was involved. He probably needed money for his chasunah expenses and planned to repay it at some point, they thought. And so, for the next while, Anschel Moses forked over every last penny he earned in the small shop his father-in-law had opened for him. After all, the debt was his to pay. A few months later, the Rebbe was notified by the police that his pouch had been discovered. Shortly before Pesach, the gentile cleaning woman in Reb Hershel’s home had spotted the bulging purse while tidying the Rebbe’s room. She pocketed it and gleefully showed their newly-found fortune to her husband. The very next day, her husband took one coin and headed for the tavern. When the formerly too-poor-for-beverages peasant arrived for the third day in a row with a whole silver coin to spend at the tavern, the innkeeper was suspicious. He reported the peasant to the police, leading to the finding of the Rebbe’s precious pouch. The Rebbe wanted to meet with Anschel Moses immediately. “Why didn’t you tell me you were innocent?” Reb Hershel asked, begging forgiveness. “The Rebbe’s distress over the lost tzedakah money disturbed me greatly. I knew that the Rebbe would never accept a penny from me if I were to tell that I had not stolen it…” Reb Hershel warmly blessed Anschel Moses that he merit great riches so he would always be able to help the poor and needy, and he suggested that Anschel

Judengasse in the Jewish ghetto in Frankfurt

years old, was forced to take over the family finances rather than learn in yeshivah. Meyer Anschel found an apprenticeship at the Oppenheimer banking house in Hanover. There, he gained enough experience to open his own business once he returned to Frankfurt. Soon, his reputation as a brilliant man made his financial advice highly sought-after by the nobles of Germany. He forged a close relationship with Crown Prince Wilhelm I of Hesse, the extremely wealthy heir to the German empire. The prince, as well as other noblemen, implicitly trusted Meyer Anschel to deal with their financial needs. In the 1780s, Meyer Anschel formed a partnership with his brother Kalman, and the Rothschild banking business was officially born. Still, Meyer Anschel remained a Torah-true Jew. He never spoke German, but managed all of his affairs in his native tongue, Yiddish. Meyer Anschel and his wife, Gitel, had nineteen children together; sadly, only ten survived infancy. Their house in the Jewish ghetto was a mere fourteen feet wide, and the entire family slept in one room. Even as they prospered, the family continued to live in their simple home in the ghetto rather than move out to the wealthier neighborhoods of Frankfurt. Moses travel to Frankfurt where he’d have a greater chance of success in business. The bracha of Reb Hershel of Zidichov came true on a grand scale. Anschel Moses became a successful merchant, and the family wealth grew exponentially in the generations that followed.

The Start of an Empire The first Rothschilds lived in a modest home at 148 Judengasse in the Jewish ghetto in Frankfurt, Germany. There was a red shield on the house, known as a “rot schild” in German, leading to the family taking on the surname that would soon gather global acclaim. Anschel Moses passed away at the young age of 45, and his eldest son, Meyer Anschel, who was but eleven

A Legacy of Integrity During the Napoleonic upheaval in Germany, Prince Wilhelm was forced to flee. He secretly entrusted his entire wealth to Meyer Anschel Rothschild for safekeeping. Meyer Anschel was indeed a trustworthy keeper. When Napoleon’s officers arrived at his doorstep demanding he turn over the prince’s riches, Meyer Anschel gave over his own fortune rather than divulge the whereabouts of the prince’s possessions he was responsible for. By the time the political unrest calmed down and Prince Wilhelm was able to return, Meyer Anschel had already passed away. However, he had revealed to his sons the secret hiding place in their home and instructed them to return every last coin to the prince when the time would come. The prince was amazed. Not only had Meyer Anschel

Did You Know? •

Many of the Rothschilds married cousins, often joining two branches of the family living in different countries through marriage. As of 1905, exactly half of Rothschild descendants had married family members!

The genealogy of the Rothschild family reveals the same first names again and again. Most notably, sons adopted the name of their father as their middle name.

The Nazi seizure of the Austrian banking branch narrowed down the Rothschild banking empire to two strongholds — Britain and France. (The Frankfurt and Naples branches had already been closed down at that point.)

The title “Baron Rothschild” is currently held by Jacob Rothschild of Berkshire, United Kingdom, who became the 4th Baron Rothschild in 1990. He does not have any male descendants, making him the final link in the son-after-son line of barony.

The Rothschild family is commonly considered the world’s most affluent family. In April 2017, the combined net worth of the extended Rothschild family was estimated at $400 billion.

been highly trustworthy, relinquishing his personal wealth in order to keep the prince’s treasures safe, but the valuables were returned with interest on the investments Meyer Anschel had made with the money.

Going Global Meyer Anschel’s sons continued the family tradition, expanding the Rothschild banking empire. The eldest son remained in Frankfurt, and the other four sons went on to open banking branches in key European locations — Vienna, Paris, London and Naples. The brothers maintained contact, passing secret messages to each other, thus growing into a world power, actively influencing global affairs. They funded construction of early railroads, provided loans to European governments and helped finance Britain’s opposition to Napoleon. And these were just a few of their large-scale endeavors. The French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars at the turn of the 18th century were pain points for most of Europe. But for the Rothschild family, it was a source of wealth. The Rothschilds were heavily involved in loans and the transfer of finances. They also traded essential products such as ammunition, wheat and cotton, earning a nice profit. When peace finally reigned, the Rothschild coffers continued to fill, this time thanks to the Industrial Revolution. The Rothschild family jumped onto the bandwagon of economic growth, making large investments in the railway, coal, iron-working, oil and metal industries. In the aftermath of the Napoleonic Wars, the huge loans provided by the Rothschild bankers led to their becoming officially recognized as nobles. This turned the Rothschilds into the first Jewish aristocratic family.

The Ranks of Aristocracy The five founding brothers were strangers in their new countries. Unfamiliar with the language and customs, they strived to integrate, but were still targets of

“I WANT YOU TO KNOW AND REMEMBER THAT A JEW IN GENERAL, AND A ROTHSCHILD IN PARTICULAR, MUST ALWAYS BE HONEST AND KEEP HIS WORD.” –Meyer Anschel Rothschild, in a message to his sons regarding the eventual return of Prince Wilhelm’s fortune, which he was safeguarding at the time. Indeed, the Rothschilds became known for their honesty, trustworthiness — and philanthropy.

Over in England, Lionel Nathan de Rothschild, son of the original Rothschild brother who settled in London, rose to a record position of prominence. He joined the House of Commons in the British parliament, becoming the first frum Yid to serve there. And even though he was in a position of such importance, he aspired to find his place in the upper class European society without compromising on his Jewish identity. When he was elected in 1847, for instance, he refused to remove his hat or swear the oath of office in order to be seated. This worked for him, and soon he earned the title “Baron.” Among the elite aristocracy in the United Kingdom, “Baron Rothschild,” became a title of nobility,

Hospitals, libraries, nursing homes, orphanages, soup kitchens and dental clinics — countless organizations and institutions were established and funded by the Rothschilds. Thus, the Rothschilds

accompanied by prestige and honor. Starting with Baron Lionel Nathan, the head of the family’s British branch of the Rothschild family came to be considered the unofficial head of British Jewry for generations to follow. Lionel Nathan single-handedly funded a number of Jewish schools throughout the country. He also tested a new concept, building low-cost housing to help the poor. His philanthropy extended to global causes, too, and he donated unusually large amounts for Irish famine relief. He was reelected four times, and was undisputedly an important, aristocratic citizen of the United Kingdom. With time, though the Rothschilds remained proudly Jewish, many of them sadly relinquished their real connection with Yiddishkeit.

An Edifice of Philanthropy The Rothschild tradition of benevolence can be traced back to the founder of the banking business, Meyer Anschel. Despite his generosity, however, he did not seek the appreciation of his recipients, but would shy away from any form of thanks. Rather, he would rush off immediately after tossing coins into the hands of a beggar, preferring to be rewarded directly from Heaven. This towering edifice of philanthropy spanning generations was erected thanks to the wishes of Reb Hershel of Zidichov — for riches so great that Anschel Moses and his descendants would always be able to help the poor and needy. Indeed, the number of beneficiaries who owe a debt of gratitude to the Rothschild family for their generosity might just be nearly as vast as the family’s wealth itself.

ness types that the running joke is that the average Mexican wakes up on bedding purchased at a shop Slim owns, buys morning bread from a Slim-owned bakery, and then drives in a car insured by Slim. He calls his family on Slim’s phone, eats lunch at a restaurant under Slim’s ownership and then smokes a Slim cigar. Is it any wonder, then, that Mexico if often referred to as Slimlandia? Carlos Slim lives relatively modestly in a sixbedroom home he purchased some 40 years ago. It is adorned with elegant furnishings and tasteful decor, but is nothing as lavish as one would expect from someone with his financial status. But he also owns a statelier property: the DukeSeamans Mansion on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, which he purchased for $44 million and is one of the most exclusive homes in the city. It’s not the only Manhattan mansion he owns, but is definitely the most remarkable one. AMANCIA ORTEGA, the wealthiest retailer in the world, made it to sixth on the list at a net worth of $62.7 billion. He founded Inditex, the fashion group most famously known for its Zara fashion chain, which is the main source of his wealth. He owns about 60 percent of Inditex, which includes eight brands and 7,500 stores around the world. He primarily invests his dividends in real estate in Madrid, Barcelona, London, Chicago, Miami and New York. Ortego is known for his philanthropy, especially in regard to the 300 million euros he donated to help fight cancer. Ortego lives simply and keeps a very low profile, shunning interviews or publicity. Even his attire is modest, and he refuses to wear a tie. His typical ensemble is a white shirt, gray trousers and a blue blazer (none of which are Zara products).

Becoming A Butler A certificate of butling from a reputable institution can be earned in 10 weeks with about 800 hours of intensive training. Butler salaries range from $50,000 to $150,000 annually, and usually include benefits plus room and board.

A Worldwide Demand For Butlers

A butler can expect to work roughly 60 hours a week.

It is common for the well-to-do in European countries such as Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium to hire butlers.

Most butlers have 4 weeks paid leave per year.

Wealthy families in China, India and Arab countries frequently employ western-trained butlers to manage their homes because having a butler is considered a sign of prestige.

The International Guild of Butlers currently has about 10,000 active members. More than 35 percent of these members are from the United States.

In America, butlers are often hired as personal assistants to CEOs, as well as managers of the homes of the rich.

Not all butlers are associated with the Guild. There are approximately a few million unregistered butlers in the world.

Butling The butler is considered the highest ranking member of the household staff. Principal is the term a butler uses to refer to his employer. Some butlers prefer to be called a household manager or an estate manager. Discreet and invisible — those are the butler’s buzz words. Butlers are expected to be trustworthy and to maintain high standards of privacy for their clients. It’s not just private homes that hire butlers. The hotel industry often hires butlers to provide hospitality services for their clients. This may include arranging dry cleaning, serving drinks, booking outings and more.

The Uniform Though the traditional image of a butler includes a three-piece suit and tie, and of course, the iconic white gloves, formal wear is usually only donned during events. Casual wear, such as a polo shirt and slacks, is common for everyday butling.

During formal events, a butler’s attire should be of slightly different coloring than what a guest could be expected to wear to prevent embarrassment should guests be unable to distinguish staff from peers.

The uniform most commonly associated with butling is the traditional dress of English butlers. This consists of a white wing collar shirt, a tie or bow tie, a gray vest, gray striped pants, a black morning coat and a pair of white gloves.

Shiny shoes are a must for a well-trained butler.

Responsibilities of a butler in a private home often include: managing household staff; greeting guests; setting tables and serving meals; wine pairing; laundry and wardrobe management; bill management; booking reservations; child care; cleaning duties; silver polishing; flower arranging; pet care and more. Some butlers do double duty, standing in as bodyguards or chauffeurs. Butlers are often expected to travel ahead of their principal to prepare accommodations. They may also need to change location frequently and must be prepared for anything, such as weeks on board a yacht or traveling to a remote destination at the whim of their principal.
