on page 122. Can you please continue the article in the coming issue? It is very interesting. Reba N. THE BORO PARK VIEW RESPONDS: We apologize for this issue. The last paragraph, most of which had been mistakenly cut off, reads: Macy’s bounced along with the currents, adapting to changing times, and they are still going as strong as ever. As of April 30, ‘22, Macy’s had 511 stores and 130,000 employees. As of 2017, Macy’s annual revenue was $24.8 billion.
SPICING IT UP
(Re: Rub It In, Issue 141) I’d like to inquire about the spice mixes featured in the spice rub recipes: Robust BBQ Seasoning, Cedar Plank Salmon Rub and Supreme Steakhouse Seasoning. Are there recipes for them, or are they commercially available for sale? Thank you, R.N. MIRIAM PESSY WERCBERGER RESPONDS: These spice rubs, from the Mon Appetit brand, are available at the Satmar butcher at 13th Avenue and 44th Street. They offer free delivery.
BEAUTIFUL INSIGHTS
(Re: It’s a New Day!, Issue 139) I clipped your article about Birchos Hashachar to peruse when life gets calmer during summer vacation. Thank you for the enlightening and inspiring information. I recorded the concepts to have them handy when I say the brachos. Hopefully, these deeper meanings will become my immediate thoughts. I thought of adding a few things I picked up here and there, which I also found insightful. A colleague of mine told me that when someone is in shidduchim (or if you’re davening for someone else who is in shidduchim), one should have that in mind when saying “Pokeach ivrim.” We need special siyata d’Shmaya to open our eyes to see that a shidduch is right. Once, at a nichum aveilim visit, I heard that the elderly woman who passed away would have in mind by Pokeach ivrim that Hashem should open her eyes to see only good in people. A lofty goal and something we should all daven for! It’s interesting to note that all of the brachos are in present tense except for one: She’asa li kol tzarki, which is in past tense. We thank Hashem for all the gifts He bestows upon us in the present; it’s an ongoing thing. However, thanking Hashem for fulfilling all of our needs can only be done when looking back. While a person is going through life day by day, they don’t have the full clarity to acknowledge this. It’s only in hindsight that we can express our gratitude to our Father, after seeing how everything had fallen into place. Thanks for a wonderful publication. Name withheld upon request EDITOR’S BULLETIN We apologize for the inappropriate pictures that made their way into last week’s issue.

The Arab drivers pointed to Reb Yosef Levi, who calmly explained his predicament. The officer realized that this was a great opportunity. This Jew was prepared to lose his entire stock in either case… “I have a solution for you!” he said gleefully. “You can leave your goods here, and we will transfer it to the government treasury.” Within moments, a contract was created, and Reb Yosef Levi signed on the dotted lines. He didn’t bother asking what the contract read even though he couldn’t understand the English words written there. He was simply happy to be relieved of his burden so he could welcome Shabbos peacefully. Reb Yosef Levi experienced a particularly uplifting Shabbos, feeling lightened by his great sacrifice. Only after Shabbos did he take the contract over to a friend who understood English. The translation of the agreement left him floored: “Permission is granted to the bearer of this contract to store his merchandise in my courtyard. The merchandise must be removed at the first opportunity.” Reb Yosef Levi made the necessary arrangements for his transport and returned to the British officer’s home. The officer welcomed him with a broad smile. “To tell you the truth,” he said, “I don’t love Jews. But how can I cause harm to one who is so devoted to the commandment of his religion?” The officer lowered his voice. “Just one thing I ask… Explain! From where did you take the courage to forfeit so much merchandise just for the sake of your G-d’s commandment?!” The officer’s question hung in the air — with no quick answer in sight.
Reb Yosef Levi was successful — but never at the expense of his Yiddishkeit.

BAR MITZVAH
In fact, the Shem MiShmuel asked this very same question of his father, the Avnei Nezer. The Avnei Nezer replied that Klal Yisroel gained the capacity to sacrifice their money for the sake of a mitzvah from none other than the Shalosh Regalim. When the Yidden would go to be oleh regel, they left behind entire properties along with all their possessions, unprotected, because they were prepared to give up all they owned for the sake of Hashem’s mitzvos! “This instilled within all the generations to come the power to sacrifice our possessions for the sake of a mitzvah,” the Avnei Nezer concluded. This is an attribute that cannot be fathomed by a non-Jew. Thus, the Shalosh Regalim emphasize a demarcation between Jew and non-Jew. Are you prepared to give all you have for your Creator? By alluding to the Shalosh Regalim, the donkey was pointing out to Bilam: “For just a sum of money, you are prepared to curse a nation that is ready to sacrifice all their means for their Creator! Do you really think that you will be able to carry out your plan?!” Adapted from the teachings of Rav Mordechai Freundlich, zt”l.

Bilam was a descendant of Lavan. According to the Gemara in Sanhedrin (105a), Bilam was Lavan’s son, and according to Tanchuma, he was Lavan himself. Interestingly, the fence where the donkey pressed to the side, injuring Bilam’s foot as he did, was made of stones that were placed there by Lavan and Yaakov Avinu as a monument memorializing their covenant never to harm one another. As Bilam passed this monument on his way to breach the agreement, he was painfully reminded of it.

After years at the top of Boro Park’s retail scene, the neighborhood’s premier electronics and houseware establishment is bringing the Plug-ins experience to Williamsburg families. BY: YAAKOV GRUNBAUM
T
here are those special moments when the realness of it all begins to set in. The whirlwind of shidduchim, celebrations, gifts, gowns, invitations and the like rarely allow the opportunity to step back and realize what is transpiring and what is being built during this magical time. But as the attentive Plug-ins salesperson sets up a kitchen table display in their Kallah Showroom and invites mother and daughter to choose the dishes and utensils that will adorn their future Shabbos meals and family dinners, the intense awareness is as emotional as it is exciting. In that retail showroom, it truly sets in: The young kallah is leaving her mother’s nest and will soon, very soon, be a wife, and b’ezras Hashem, a mother that will anchor her own Jewish home. The materialistic manifestations — appliances, housewares, hardware — do not mean much in the grand scheme of things. But without them, there is no house to be turned into a home. Over the past decade, the showroom at Plugins in Boro Park has been the place where futures begin. The success of the retail store in general, and the showroom in particular, has led to an expansion into the family-blessed Williamsburg market, with a new Plug-ins location quickly turning into a community retail hotspot.
HOME LIFE BEGINS HERE There are many items required to prepare a house for living, and many stores that are specifically geared to certain product groups, be it electronics, appliances, houseware, hardware, etc. Plug-ins, and its flagship location on 13th Avenue and 41st Street, set out to provide an experience that would usher shoppers into their home carrying all their kitchen, bathroom and bedroom essentials. As the premier destination for such all-inclusive shopping, Plug-ins has become the go-to place for consumers looking to outfit their new apartment as well as those with more modest shopping lists. One offering that has taken off in particular is the Kallah Showroom where knowledgeable salespeople skillfully walk through homemakersJuly 13, 2022

to-be with their myriad options for style, material, utility and more. The Plug-ins team gives each family the attention they deserve during their appointed time slot and guides mother and daughter to making informed decisions on their major appliances, table settings, kitchen items and more. The showroom also offers special after-hour appointments exclusively for kallahs. Plug-ins, and the showroom in particular, has earned a reputation as an exemplar of customer service, with its staff going above and beyond before, during and after each purchase to ensure that shoppers are satisfied with their purchase and that it will serve them in the way they hoped and rightfully expected. And shoppers clearly appreciate the experience. One of the customer service representatives recounted that a grateful client returned a few days after purchasing an oven with a fresh cheesecake that was baked in her shiny new appliance. But an even bigger tell of the retailer’s success is its organic growth and the reputation it has cemented as Boro Park’s home for electronics and houseware.
HELLO WILLIAMSBURG After a decade at the top, Plug-ins founder and owner Chaim Klein saw the need and opportunity for more. “The many grateful customers that pass through our doors pushed me to bring this business and all its wonderful services to our friends in Williamsburg,” he says. And now, that vision has been brought to life, to the delight of local families. The Williamsburg store has been modeled after its Boro Park big-sister location, perpetuating the acclaimed Plug-ins commitment to superior quality and a varied collection to suit the wants and needs of every family. Just like in Boro Park, Plug-ins in Williamsburg boasts a magnificent Kallah Showroom, where clients can make informed choices across the vast selection of products sold for new homes. In a neighborhood with so many large young families, this superior service has long been in demand and customers will no longer have to travel to Boro Park to benefit from it. We spoke with one of the salespeople about her responsibilities at the new Kallah Showroom. “My job is not to push products or even direct customers to the right purchase. It is to advise and inform so that they can choose the items that work for them by making a choice that is truly theirs. The information remains the same, but no two shoppers are alike and neither are the decisions they make. “I am blessed that with this job I have a part in helping build the foundations of future Yiddish homes,” she concludes With online shopping increasingly popular, the Plug-ins advantage has only grown in relevance as consumers get to actually see the item before them and speak to a knowledgeable individual who has heard feedback or seen it in action. This is especially true for products that are more common or used differently in heimish homes; the internet knows little about these. Today, with Brooklyn boasting two Plug-ins locations, the retailer is as plugged in as ever in the heimish shopping scene. And they are showing no signs of slowing down, with plans for more offerings and more services already in the works. 60

Ukrainian Embassy Shuts Down All Rosh Hashanah Travel to Uman Spending Rosh Hashanah in Uman has become an annual ritual for some, but with the ongoing war in the Ukraine, officials have said that no visitors will be allowed to Rabbi Nachman’s kever this year. Ukraine’s Israeli embassy made the announcement on social media, acknowledging the importance of the annual pilgrimage even as it announced that no visitors or tourists will be allowed into the country amid security concerns. “Your prayers are important to us,” wrote Ukraine’s Israeli ambassador, Yevgen Korniychuk. “Please pray that before Rosh Hashanah, the war in the Ukraine, which broke out due to blatant and cruel Russian aggression, will come to an end, and pray for the victory of Ukraine. We hope that the prayers will be fulfilled and that Ukraine will once again be a country that generously receives visitors from Israel, and especially Jews who come to Ukraine to visit the graves of the righteous.” Meanwhile, Rosh Hashanah preparations are still moving ahead in the hopes that the situation can be resolved before Tishrei, reported The Times of Israel. Natan Ben-Nur, chairman of the Breslov Union in Uman, said that he wasn’t expecting crowds in Uman this year, but hopes that his predictions will be proved wrong. Hatzalah Ukraine director Shlomi Elisha also said that his agency was still moving ahead with arrangements, noting that 150 to 200 people are still coming to Rabbi Nachman’s tzion each Shabbos. “Uman is very far from the frontline, and life is carrying on here as normal except for the nighttime curfew,” said Elisha. Travel to Uman could be more difficult than usual this year, even if the ban on visitors is rescinded in time for Rosh
Hashanah. Currently, there are no commercial flights entering Ukraine, leaving trains and buses from neighboring countries the only options for those wishing to enter Ukraine.
Elected Officials Call for Town Hall Meeting To Discuss Growing Concerns at Maimonides Expressing serious concerns about potential mismanagement of resources and subpar care, a group of five officials sent a joint letter to the head of Maimonides Medical Center, requesting a town hall meeting to facilitate direct conversation between the public and hospital executives. VIN News reported that State Senator Simcha Felder; Assemblymembers Robert Carroll, Simcha Eichenstein and Marcela Mitaynes; and City Councilmember Kalman Yeger all signed their names to a July 7th letter addressed to Maimonides CEO and president Kenneth Gibbs. The letter cited multiple reports in both the media and from family members that expressed frustration about treatment received at the hospital. It also said that the hospital’s financial situation appears to be deteriorating and is likely the cause of an ongoing nursing shortage that impacts patient care. “As you know, the bulk of Maimonides Medical Center funding comes directly or indirectly from government sources,” wrote the five public officials. “As the elected officials representing the area, we feel compelled to ensure that these resources are used responsibly and that the concerns of our constituents — the bulk of the hospital’s patients — are heard.” The group called for a meeting where hospital officials could engage directly with the public, the first step in forging “a productive path forward.” The effort to effect change at Maimonides went beyond the letter, with full-page ads appearing last weekend. A website launched in conjunction with the initiative, www.savemaimo.com, noted that countless efforts made by local leaders and activists have been disappointing and invites the public to share their experiences at Maimonides in an effort to understand the scope of the problem as the first step in the “fight for the right solutions.”
Carpool Discounts Disappear as Cashless Tolling Goes Live at GWB Traffic may be moving more smoothly at the George Washington Bridge now that the crossing’s traditional tollbooths have been replaced by an overhead electronic 66

tolling system, but for drivers who relied on a carpool discount to save a few dollars on their commute, the change is anything but welcome. The George Washington Bridge switched over to all-electronic tolling last Sunday. The overhead gantries that monitor traffic heading onto the bridge will collect tolls through E-Z Pass tags in vehicles passing below. Drivers without E-Z Pass will have their license plates photographed, with a toll bill mailed to the vehicle’s registered owner. No additional fees will be charged to those who pay their bills on time. While Port Authority chairman Kevin O’Toole hailed the system as quick and accurate, others were less than enthusiastic about the fact that the bridge’s carpool discounts are now relegated to the history books. As previously reported in The Boro Park View, eliminating the carpool discount will have drivers shelling out an additional $9.50 each day to cross the George Washington Bridge, and with less incentive to carpool, will likely generate more pollution. “I’ve said it time and time again, but the Port Authority just won’t listen,” Congressman Josh Gottheimer told New Jersey 101.5. “We can have cashless tolls and a carpool discount lane, but the Port Authority would rather unnecessarily tax Jersey drivers. It’s extremely disappointing.” Gottheimer has been heavily involved in the fight to save the carpool discount for years, and he disagreed with the Port Authority’s contention that there is no accurate way for an electronic system to count a vehicle’s occupants to verify that it is eligible for the savings. He noted that Massachusetts, California, Georgia, Tennessee and Virginia are all using technology to detect the number of passengers in a car. The systems are 95% accurate, while relying on toll takers to count passengers, which has long been done at the George Washington Bridge, has an accuracy rate of just 36%. Gottheimer also criticized the decision to eliminate the carpool discount at a time when high inflation and shocking gas prices have left consumers reeling, calling it “a lose-lose for absolutely everyone.”
Felder Launches Emergency Summer Sign Campaign Hoping to ward off potential tragedies as the summer gets underway, State Senator Simcha Felder kicked off a campaign last week making critical information instantly available in the 68

event of an emergency. Thousands of red signs bearing Hatzalah’s phone number, which is the same in Brooklyn and in the Catskills, were distributed in the mountains. The signs also include a space in which to write down the street address to direct emergency workers to the correct location. In a message released last Friday, Felder noted that accidents happen, even when precautions are taken. “In an emergency, when every second counts, we cannot think clearly enough to remember Hatzalah’s number or even our own address,” explained Felder. “The challenge is even greater for summer residents or babysitters who have no idea what address they are at, and precious time is wasted.” Signs are available at no charge by calling 718-253-2015 or by emailing Felder@NYSenate.gov. Felder is confident that providing the ability to call for help without delay will yield tremendous benefits, calling the signs “one simple precaution that will save lives this summer.”
NYPD Warns of Local Jewelry Scam Responding to a rash of jewelry thieves preying on elderly targets, the NYPD’s 66th Precinct is warning people to take precautions to protect their valuables. Police said that the thieves often use children as a distraction and have been known to swap real jewelry for fakes under the guise of offering a gift, a prayer or a blessing. In other instances, thieves have played on their victims’ sympathies, saying they needed cash and then offering fake jewelry in exchange for money. The NYPD is advising area residents to keep their jewelry hidden from view when outside and to report any suspicious individual to the local precinct, even if they have not suffered any property losses. For more information, contact the precinct at 718-851-5611.
City’s Summer Meals Program Opens for Kids 18 and Under Once again, New York City’s Department of Education is running a summer meals program, providing free breakfasts and lunches to anyone age 18 and under. The program offers nutritional meals that meet or exceed United States Department of Agriculture standards, includes fresh fruits, whole grains, vegetables and salads, and runs through Friday, September 2. While the program officially began on June 28, kosher meal distributions began on July 12 at five locations citywide — J.H.S. 220, located at 4812 9th Avenue in Boro Park; I.S. 318, located at 101 Walton Street in Williamsburg; P.S. 48, located at 4360 Broadway in Washington Heights; P.S. 253, located at 1307 Central Avenue in Far Rockaway; and J.H.S. 168, located at 158-40 76th Road in Kew Gardens Hills. All children receiving meals must be present at the distribution, with breakfasts being offered from 8:00 to 9:15 a.m., and lunches from 11 a.m. to 1:15 p.m.

Lose weight this summer!
The proof is in the pounds.
“Who even believes that a supplement can help you lose weight? Not me. But because I was desperate, I was willing to give it a try. After all, it’s completely safe. All I can say is that I’d never had such an easy time losing weight. I literally felt my metabolism get unstuck. Instead of every pound sticking to me, my system cleared up and my digestion improved.” Chaim A. Goldman, 32 Boro Park
CAPSULES I started taking Melta right after Pesach, And I already see a difference , I eat less, I don’t crave every piece of cake in front of me, and I’m starting to lose weight easier and quicker, I was dieting before, and i was losing 1 LB a week, now with Melta I loose over 3 LB weekly.
After taking Melta, I felt that my cravings weren’t as strong as they were before. I started making healthier choices with my breakfast...I started making better choices with lunch and dinner and exercising more because I started feeling better about myself and I wasn’t craving those sweets... I’ve lost 16 pounds since i started taking melta

Melta worked!, I’ve already lost about 12 pounds, I feel so much lighter and so much better, I would definitely recommend Melta to others! Chaim a Weinfeld, 32 Williamsburgh
C H A P T E R 18 RECAP: After a lonely Shabbos spent brooding, Izzy drives out to Zach to keep him company. Zach finally tells the media of his plans to leave town, but refuses to comment further.
I
zzy walked into Zach’s home at around 10 p.m., disheveled and confused thanks to the mob of reporters outside. Despite Zach’s warning, Izzy hadn’t been prepared for the bombardment of questions, the crush of people, the incessant pop of flashes. Well, few people were, the first time. He handled himself well enough, though, Zach thought. At least he pushed through the throng without saying anything troublesome. But as soon as he was inside with the door firmly closed, Izzy sagged against the frame with a haunted look. “I don’t know how you handle that.” “You get used to it,” Zach assured him. “Besides, they’re not always this bad. They smell blood…” “So we’re, what? Prey?” Izzy put his face up to the frosted glass panes surrounding Zach’s front door and gazed out numbly. “Ah, don’t worry about it. By tomorrow morning we’ll be 4,000 miles away, and nobody will even know our names.” Zach padded into the kitchen and flipped on a light.
“You want soda or beer?” he called over his shoulder. * * * * *
Zach’s suitcase, which he was carefully loading with a week’s worth of clothing, had a section for hanging garments as well as an open pouch for everything else. The bag, which lay open on Zach’s bed, was already packed with two suits and several pressed shirts. Zach was currently stuffing the main section while Izzy watched, leaning against a wall and sipping a beer. As it turned out, there was no direct flight to Lodz. They could fly to Warsaw and drive the 84 miles from there. But there weren’t that many direct flights to Warsaw, either, so what was the point? Izzy didn’t want a long drive in addition to a long layover. “So how are we getting there?” Zach asked for the third time. He didn’t really care at first, had only asked out of curiosity. But Izzy kept evading the question. “I didn’t really have a choice,” Izzy told
him, biting his lip. Zach raised an eyebrow. “Just tell me, Izzy. I’m not gonna bite.” Looking apologetic, Izzy said, “We’re flying Aer Lingus to Dublin at three in the morning. The flight’s six and a half hours long, and we’ll land at 2:30 p.m. local time.” “So?” Izzy flashed a weak smile. “Unfortunately, the only airline to Lodz, Ryanair, leaves at 9:35 a.m. So...” “So we’re spending Sunday night in Dublin.” Izzy inhaled. “Yeah. Believe me, I looked for other options! But practically everything had a huge layover somewhere, or other problems, and —” He was cut off when Zach started to laugh. “Izzy, have you ever been to Ireland?” “What? No.” Izzy looked at him in surprise. “Pretty much the only place I’ve ever been outside the States is Eretz Yisroel. Why?” Zach’s eyes lit up. “Oi, ‘tis a right lovely place to be marooned, laddie!” he exclaimed. “Yeh’ll lahve it dere!” Izzy burst into laughter. “That was, without a doubt, the worst fake Irish accent I’ve ever heard!” “Believe me, I know.” Zach grinned. “But it really is a beautiful place. We can make a little vacation of it, no worries. There’s this fantastic restaurant I know, down by the —” “Kosher,” Izzy reminded him. “Ahh, right.” Zach tossed another pair of socks into his suitcase. “Well, we’ll find something to eat. And I’ll show you around. The Dublin Castle is amazing.” He frowned. “I don’t suppose you’d want to tour the Cathedral?” Izzy shook his head. “Definitely not.” “What about a seven-hundred-yearold pub?” “Yeah, no thanks.” Zach chuckled. “Tough customer. All right, no problem. There’s plenty to see.” “Honestly,” Izzy told him, “I’m fine just crashing in a hotel. I don’t mind tagging along if you want to go somewhere, as long as there’s nothing inappropriate. But don’t do it for me.” “Everything will be 100% Jew-friendly,” Zach promised. He sat on his suitcase and zipped it closed. “Trust me, you’ll change your tune when we get there. It’s a wonderful city.” He stood up suddenly. “Speaking of changing
tunes…” He disappeared down the hallIzzy had to admit that Dublin really way and returned a few minutes later was beautiful, and there were plenty with a guitar in a case. of interesting things to see along the Izzy looked stunned. “You… play gui- way.

He turned to Izzy and smiled. “Guess Even more amazing were the Cliffs they figure we don’t have enough soul.” of Moher, a nine-mile stretch of picturesque greenery at the edge of a cliff that dropped several hundred feet straight * * * * * into the Atlantic Ocean. They arrived at the Cliffs just before The flight to Ireland was long and exhausting. Izzy slept fitfully and woke up sunset. Izzy made the bracha of “she’asa a few hours later for Shacharis. His body es hayam hagadol,” and Zach repeated the thought it was still late at night, but he words after him. Then, just as the sun knew the zman had almost passed. By dipped below the horizon, Izzy whisthe time they deplaned a few hours pered a fervent, “Mah rabu masecha Hashlater, Izzy was worn out and sticky and em!” under his breath. “What was that?” Zach asked. “More desperate for a rest.

It means, uh, ‘How great are Your deeds, didn’t want to disappoint. After Mincha, they grabbed lunch at Hashem!’ Comes from Tehillim.” They listened together to the sounds a kosher restaurant, and checked into the kind of fancy hotel Izzy would have of the ocean, and slowly, a great sense normally just rolled his eyes at. Then, of peace descended. As darkness began after a few minutes to freshen up, Zach to fall, Zach took out his guitar.

sprung up. Izzy, touched in a way he hadn’t expected, stared open-mouthed as his cousin filled the ocean with song. Zach’s fingers moved more quickly now, hardly seeming to touch the strings, and the deep regret in the melody changed. Calm replaced the mourning, then came acceptance, and there was even a hint of something hopeful hiding just behind the horizon. The song built up like the crashing of waves hundreds of feet below them, a stubborn insistence, a refusal to give in. And then, with no warning at all, it stopped, and Izzy was violently shaken out of his trance. It was so sudden, Izzy turned to his cousin, half expecting to find a reason for the interruption. Instead, he saw his cousin staring intently at the neck of his guitar. “I never could figure out the right way to end this,” Zach whispered. Izzy gaped. “You — you wrote that?” “Did you like it?” “It is... beautiful!” Izzy couldn’t understand it. In every way, Zach had seemed like the perfect politician at their first meeting — slick, smooth, in total control. Then had come a huge blow to his career, and he’d seemed to crumble into dust. And now, this deeply spiritual pintele Yid had poked its head up from the ashes. “You have such a talent! Why’d you ever go into politics?!” And just like that, the light in Zach’s eyes winked out, the shoulders shifted ever so slightly, and the pintele Yid once again dove into hiding. “You can’t make real money in music,” Zach said. “Not if you want to enjoy it. Keeping music as a hobby keeps it pure, I guess.” Stupid thing to say! Izzy berated himself. He wished his brother were there. Chaim Simcha always had the right words. Zach handed the guitar to Izzy. “Your turn. Teach me a kuzmitz.” Izzy laughed uncomfortably. “It’s kumzitz. Like, ‘come sit.’” He took the guitar and studied it. “This is a really nice guitar.” “Perks of politics,” Zach told him with a wink. “This was a gift from Oscar Peña. He’s a famous musician,” he added in response to Izzy’s blank look. “Oh.” Izzy tried a few chords. They sounded much better on this guitar than with the ancient, neglected one in his apartment. He wasn’t even sure he knew where it was; he only used it two or three times a year. “Okay,” he began. “Um, Chanukah is coming. And one of the Chanukah songs is Chasoif. It’s about — well, it’s about galus. And geulah. Exile and redemption. And how we’ve been waiting for so long, struggled for so long, but we know it’s only a matter of time before Hashem saves us.” Zach nodded. “Okay. Let me have it.” Izzy’s fingers moved clumsily over the fretboard. He felt extremely conscious of the difference in their skill. But a kumzitz was never about great music, he reminded himself. It was about neshamah, about heart. He would just have to put as much heart into this as he could, and let Hashem handle the rest. “Here goes, I guess…” he said. “Chasoif zeroa kodshecha…” TO BE CONTINUED...

CHAPTER
SEVEN
Recap: Gonzalo arrives at his brother’s door, where he plans to hide with Sebastian in the heart of Madrid. Their rationale is that the Inquisition is least likely to search for fugitives there. His brother and sister-in-law discuss the young Dominguez’s puzzling escape.
“W
ait a minute!” said Carmello. “Didn’t you serve under Don Pedro Dominguez, the escaped prisoner’s father?” “That’s right,” added Graciela. “You named your own son in his honor. It must have come a great shock when you found out that all along he was a dirty Jew doing all kinds of horrible —” She stopped mid-sentence, and her hand flew to her mouth. Her eyes opened wide as saucers, and she stood up abruptly, spilling hot tea all over the tablecloth. Carmello looked from his wife to his brother and back, the light of comprehension dawning in his eyes. “Gonzalo?” he said, pointing at Sebastian. “Is this who I think it is?” Gonzalo laced the fingers of his two hands together, then put them behind his neck and leaned back. “I’m afraid it is, Carmello. And where should we turn for refuge if not to the safety of my brother’s house?” “Gonzalo, Gonzalo, what have you done?” said Carmello. He looked at Sebastian. “How could you let him do this, young fellow? How could you let him risk his life like this? How could you let him endanger the future of his son?” “What has he done?” said Sebastian. “I knocked on his door and asked him to help me find shelter for the sake of my father’s memory. He was honor-bound to help me. What else could he do?”

“But didn’t he help you escape from prison?” “Who? Gonzalo? How would he do that? No, Gonzalo had nothing to do with it. The hunchback helped me escape. He just flew in and carried me off.” “The Devil’s henchman,” breathed Carmello. At the mention of the hunchback, Graciela let out a piercing shriek. She crossed herself several times and put her hands over her ears. “I can’t listen to this any more. Heaven have mercy on my soul. Carmello, you have to arrest them right now.” “My own brother, Graciela? Have you taken leave of your senses? I can’t do something like that.” “Carmello,” she wailed, “I don’t want my soul to suffer eternal damnation. I want to go to Heaven. If you don’t arrest them, I will turn them in first thing tomorrow morning.” “If you do that, Graciela, you will be in Heaven before tomorrow night, do you understand me? You will remain silent. You will not breathe one word of this to anyone. Not to anyone. Do you understand me?” Graciela nodded grudgingly. Carmello turned to Gonzalo. “How long do you intend to stay here?” “Maybe a week or two,” said Gonzalo. “Just until things quiet down.” “And then what will you do?” “We will head for Saragossa and then on to Barcelona. From there we should be able to get to Italy without too
much difficulty.” “Fine. Let’s make that one week, and not a day more. Agreed?” Gonzalo nodded. “Agreed.” Soon after the household was asleep, Gonzalo awakened Sebastian. He held his finger to his lips to ask for silence. “We are in mortal danger here,” he whispered to Sebastian. “We have to leave right now, and we have to get as far away from here as we can.” Fifteen minutes later, they were on the road, riding by the light of the silvery moon. But they were not headed for Saragossa, as Gonzalo had told Carmello. Instead, they headed south, deeper into the heart of Spain. They rode through the night, going as fast as the horses could manage. They gave Toledo a wide berth, going instead through Aranjuez and Ocaña. Before dawn, they stopped in a secluded spot in a wooded area near the Cedron River. * * * * *
Just as they settled down to catch a few hours of badly needed sleep, a drama was playing itself out far to the north. An Inquisition wagon rolled up to the door of Carmello Villablanca’s house. A priest in a black cassock and two men of the Hermandad in white robes and black cowl hoods emerged. The priest banged on the door several times before it was finally opened by the maid. Carmello appeared right behind her, rubbing his eyes. “We have come for Dominguez, the escaped prisoner,” said the priest in the black cassock. “While my men search the house, the two of you should remain here.” Carmello was stunned. “B-b-but … how? I mean … who?” “I told Father Jose in the church in the village,” said the maid. “He ran to the Holy office.” “B-but how did you know anything? Were you listening at the door?” “I certainly was,” she said, lifting her chin in defiance. “Suspicious things were going on, and someone had to report them if you and the senora didn’t.” “According to your maid,” said the priest, “you and your wife are innocent. If our investigation supports her testimony, you will not suffer any consequences for these fugitives appearing uninvited at your doorstep.” One of the men from the Hermandad appeared. “The fugitives are gone,” he reported. “They must have left in the night.” The priest turned to Carmello. “Did they say where they were going?” “Yes. They mentioned Saragossa and then Barcelona.” The priest looked to the maid for confirmation. She nodded. “Good, you are cooperating,” he said. “If you hear from them, you are to report to me immediately. And senor, there will be no retaliation whatsoever against your maid. Do you understand? If there is, she is to report to me, and I assure you, sir, it will not be pleasant for you.” “No, of course not,” stammered Carmello. “She was doing her sacred duty.”
SHE STOPPED MID-SENTENCE, AND HER HAND FLEW TO HER MOUTH. HER EYES OPENED WIDE AS SAUCERS, AND SHE STOOD UP ABRUPTLY, SPILLING HOT TEA ALL OVER THE TABLECLOTH.
“THE FUGITIVES ARE GONE,” HE REPORTED. “THEY MUST HAVE LEFT IN THE NIGHT.” “Why did they leave?” asked the priest. “Did they think you would report them?” “I don’t think so,” said Carmello. “But my wife and I made it perfectly clear that they weren’t welcome here. So I think they just ... decided to look for someplace else to stay.” “Do you have any idea where they might have gone tonight?” “None at all. Believe me, Father. I have no idea.” An hour later, a large search party set off in the direction of Saragossa, while a number of smaller search parties searched in a fifty-mile radius around Madrid. * * * * *

Many miles to the south, Gonzalo and Sebastian caught two hours of peaceful sleep, unaware of the closeness of their escape. They awoke while the sun was still climbing into the sky and breakfasted on a loaf of bread washed down with water from the river. “Just about now,” said Gonzalo, “they’ll notice that the horses are gone, and they’ll look in our room and see that we’ve left.” “Do you think they’ll report us?” “Carmello is a good man, and he’s my brother. He won’t want to report us. But Graciela will push him to do it for their protection. She’ll argue that since we’ve gone anyway, they might as well report us and stay in the good graces of the Inquisition. He’ll give in to her, but he’ll insist on waiting until later today or maybe tomorrow. He’ll try to give us some time to get far away. By the way, Don Sebastian, thank you for saying that I wasn’t involved in your escape. If they ever catch me, it will help me somewhat.” “They won’t catch you, Gonzalo. You lead a charmed life.” Gonzalo laughed bitterly. “A charmed life? You call mine a charmed life? A wife that dies in her prime. A son that I never see. My liege lord is burned at the stake, and I’m fleeing with his son, one step ahead of disaster every day.” “I am sorry, Gonzalo,” said Sebastian. “What are we going to do now?” “We go to Cordoba.” “What’s in Cordoba?” “Don Alejandro Quinones, Marques de Murillo, a dear old friend of your father. You and your family will need money when you start your new lives in Amsterdam or Constantinople or wherever you decide to go. Your father once told me that if anything happened to him and if his family needed money, they could turn to Don Alejandro. I didn’t understand what he meant at the time. Why would his family need to go to Don Alejandro for money? There is always money in the royal coffers for the kinsmen of the royal family. The truth of the matter did not occur to me. Anyway, you will need money, so we will visit your father’s friend.”

“CARMELLO IS A GOOD MAN, AND HE’S MY BROTHER. HE WON’T WANT TO REPORT US. BUT GRACIELA WILL PUSH HIM TO DO IT FOR THEIR PROTECTION.” Sebastian looked at Gonzalo doubtfully. “Do you think it is safe?” “Don’t worry. Don Alejandro will not betray you. Come, let us go to Cordoba.” It took them several days to get to Cordoba, traveling mostly in the early mornings and the late afternoons. The heat during the middle of the day was so scorching that in many places the vegetation on the sides of the road caught fire and burned steadily. The old walled city of Cordoba lay on a flat plain along the Segura River between the Sierra Morena and the Sierra Nevada mountains. The Marques de Murillo had his baronial estates further up amid the wide open spaces and cool breezes of the mountains, but he kept an office in the walled city for the occasions when he had to perform his obligatory duties for the crown. Gonzalo decided to seek him out in the city, where they would draw less attention to themselves. They would go in the heat of the afternoon, when they were less likely to meet people. They stabled their horses and walked through the fields toward the Almodovar Gate. The sun beat down on their heads, and they felt as if the door of a furnace had opened and the air had blasted out into their faces. They entered the city and immediately plunged into the warren of tiny streets that branched off from the central square. It was like walking through a maze, but Gonzalo seemed to know where he was going. The streets were practically deserted. Most of the shops were closed. “Where are we going?” asked Sebastian. “I’m taking you to the old Juderia, the Jewish quarter. There used to be a Jewish community here. I’ll show you a synagogue. Would you like to see it?” “Of course.” They continued through the labyrinthine streets until they came to a narrow street called the Calle des Judios, the Jews’ Street; it was more like an alleyway, ending at a building that blocked egress. “That building was the synagogue,” said Gonzalo. “You probably imagined a large, impressive building. I am sorry to disappoint you.” “It’s not what I expected,” Sebastian admitted ruefully, “but it’s still something. It is the most Jewish thing I’ve seen in public in my entire life. Thank you for bringing me here, Gonzalo.” “And you’ll thank me for getting us away from here very quickly. If we linger in this street, we will attract attention. Not a good idea. Come, let’s see if we can find the Marques.” To be continued…

CHAPTER SIXTY-SIX RECAP: Osher
returns to Rabbi Reiness’ home together with Dr. Kreisman. The policemen grill him in an effort to understand Rabbi Reiness’ sudden and frightening disappearance. Doron Nachman relates that Rabbi Reiness had decided to give up all of his plans for getting back the land in order to save Osher. Osher finally meets up with Ariella, but he is very hurt and angry at her.

alls of solid stone rose as high as the eye could see. Somewhere above, the sky stretched in every direction. The ravine was completely dry; the remnants of spring were beginning to recede in the face of summer’s heat. Reb Elazar sat on a large rock. There didn’t seem to be a living soul around besides him. His right hand supported his forehead, shading his eyes. Here he was no one’s rav, no one’s father. He was not a son fulfilling a promise to anyone. He was alone, flesh, bones and a soul, and only the third Partner Who had granted it all to him was here with him. He had no idea where he was and in which direction he should proceed. For the past few hours, he had simply walked along a narrow path he had spotted, hoping it would lead him to some civilization and that it wasn’t just a path that donkeys had created with their hoof-prints eighty years earlier, and which ended at some abandoned shack or ruin. He walked and davened, and davened and walked, and at one point, he began to sing Adon Olam to himself, remembering those final moments near his father’s deathbed. Then, too, he sang Adon Olam. And then, at a certain point, he had promised himself that he would make every effort to fulfill his father’s wish... He continued walking, davening and singing, and when the path suddenly ended at this massive stone wall, he stopped to rest. He again opened the bottle of water they had so generously given him before leaving, made a bracha, and sipped. Shehakol nihiyeh bidvaro was also here, now.

But the stupidity he had displayed... How had he allowed himself to fall into this foolish trap? Why hadn’t he tried to stall for time, to wait a few more hours? And yet, he had nothing to regret. How did his own rebbi, Harav Koch, zt”l, put it? A Jew never makes a mistake. Even if it looks like a mistake, the results are, in any case, determined from Above. Reb Elazar had no idea what was going on with Osher. Chances were he’d calmed down by now and was trying to plan the way forward. Had he returned to the carpentry shop? What had they told him? And what was Doron Nachman doing now? Doron Nachman had also thought it was genuine. They were so persuasive! At first he didn’t want to believe them. He thought it was a bad joke, and didn’t even respond before hanging up the phone. But when they called back two minutes later, he didn’t hang up so fast. They sounded serious. And then he asked for a bit of time to think, and they’d given him half an
hour. “And if you speak to anyone — police, family, army, anyone — there’s no more Osher,” the voice had said. “Don’t talk to anyone, you hear? We will know, do you understand?” He had replied that yes, he under-

And from then until the next conversation, 28 minutes later, he had paced up and down the carpentry shop, worried sick. He had turned his phone off. He didn’t want to speak to Osher’s parents, because he did not know what to tell them. Maybe they would involve the police either way, just because Osher had run away. But from his experience, the police would not do any-

thing when a sixteen-year-old boy ran away, especially as, in this case, he had informed Rabbi Reiness that he was doing so, and less than 24 hours had passed since he’d last made contact. Less than half an hour later, two minutes after he’d turned his phone back on, the man called. “Come at 8:45 on the dot,” the voice said, “to the entrance of Ma’alot Tarshicha. Do you know where that is? That’s where you’ll sign for us that you don’t want any land, and you’ll get the boy. If you bring police, there’s no more boy.” The decision was searing, almost to the point of tears, but he had no time to feel the pain. It wasn’t hard. He knew very well what he had to do, and his only deliberation was if there really was no possibility of contacting the police. Maybe he should have asked a rav if he was allowed to endanger himself to save Osher. But he hadn’t thought it would be dangerous. It was clear to him that if he would give them what they wanted, there would be no rea-
son for them to harm him. After all, the Al-Alami family was a “respected” family that would not get embroiled in crime if they could avoid it. In the end, he chose to speak to Doron Nachman. But they had detected him, too. Less than a kilometer before they reached their destination, they called him again. “The motorcycle behind you is the police!” the familiar voice had howled through the speakerphone. “No student, Reiness. You hear? Gone!” “It’s not the police!” he’d cried, alarmed. “Of course not! I didn’t call anyone; it’s just a friend of mine. You didn’t tell me not to take a friend!” “We said ‘alone’! Does this mean alone?!” “He plans to stay far away,” Rabbi Reiness tried to appease the voice. “I didn’t know it would make you so angry; he’s just a good friend of mine.” “Friend or no friend, this guy has been with you the entire time!” the voice screamed. “We told you not to talk to anyone! Listen: Do you want the boy? Do you want him?” “Yes, of course I do!” The voice went down an octave. “So you get rid of your friend and follow us.” “Get rid of him?! How do you want me to do that?” “In another minute, a truck will come to the intersection. It will give you the right of way. You will pass, and he will wait behind like a good boy. When the truck moves on, he’ll be able to start moving again, and then you won’t be there anymore.” “Where will I be?” Rabbi Reiness asked, trying to sound very calm. “You’ll drive after us; we’re waiting for you in a blue Transit,” the man said. “And this is the last time I’m letting you test our patience. One more game, and we’re finished doing business with you. If you want Osher…” Reb Elazar wanted Osher back, very much. So he’d evaded Doron at the intersection. And he’d followed the blue Transit, which turned onto a dirt road behind some wide olive trees. He’d thought of Doron Nachman left behind, not knowing what had happened to him. He wanted Osher, and that’s why he’d also switched off his phone, as the Arabs had ordered him, parked 90

the car in the Ein Ziv parking lot, and climbed into the Arabs’ Transit. They’d waited for him inside, three of them, looking relatively friendly. One of them introduced himself as Yussuf, and then he’d laughed. “Regards from Osher; we’re good friends,” he said. They didn’t touch him; instead, they’d started to drive without another word, speeding rather wildly. So wildly that Elazar had gripped the seat in front of him with white knuckles. The careening was jarring, nearly unbearable. He hoped that the traffic police would pick up on the speeding vehicle, but that miracle did not happen. They stopped at a remote spot, and then climbed into a four-wheel-drive vehicle before quickly getting off the paved roads. Throughout the ride, they didn’t say a word, but Elazar was still expecting to see Osher at some point. “Where is Osher?” he asked, after a few long moments. “I hope we’ll get to him soon.” The man who called himself Yussuf snickered. “Osher? Wait, wait… You’ll meet him soon. I’m sure it will be very interesting to see the two of you reunited.” He laughed again, and didn’t answer any more of Elazar’s questions. The atmosphere in the vehicle was calm, and Elazar didn’t notice any weapons; he deliberated whether he was considered a captive. He was riding with these people ostensibly of his own free will, no one was scaring him, and the choice to join them was his. Still, it was surely a crime. Extortion, threats, and if they had abducted Osher, then they certainly weren’t afraid of anyone… What would prevent them from making him sign a document of some kind, and then getting rid of him and Osher together? The car continued to move forward, and then it entered a thicket of trees. Branches scraped the sides of the vehicle and darkened the day. The driver switched on the light inside, humming an Arabic tune to himself. The one who called himself Yussuf made a comment, and the driver fell silent. Reb Elazar sat with his eyes closed, davening. He had no idea what was waiting for him at the end of this very unpleasant ride. Suddenly, they emerged from the trees. Another ten minutes of driving

between rock walls in various shades of brown, and the vehicle stopped in the middle of a narrow ravine. On the left was an even deeper abyss. Yussuf said, “Get out quickly, so you don’t fall.” That same second, his switched-off phone flew out of Elazar’s hands and crashed forty meters down the side of the cliff. “Oh, so sorry!” the young Arab exclaimed as he followed him out of the vehicle. There wasn’t a trace of a smile in his voice or his eyes. “Sorry I dropped your phone. Here, take a hundred shekels toward a replacement.” “There’s no reception here anyway,” Yussuf added, his arms folded as he gazed at the steep cliff below. “So it’s useless here in any case.” “Where is Osher?” Rabbi Reiness was hardly focused on his now-departed phone, or the bill that had been proffered to him. He looked left and right, his lips trembling. Yussuf curved his lips upward. “Honestly, Reiness, I don’t know. After he told me that he’s not coming back
and doesn’t want to stay in Acco and all that, he went to the train station. He probably wanted to go home, no?” He put a hand on Reb Elazar’s shoulder, and the Rav stood motionlessly, staring at a long, jagged scratch on the stone wall he was facing. “But you know, he told me you were very good to him, and boy, do I agree with the kid. Look how we managed to get you all the way here, eh? We love such jokes!” And with those words, he turned back to the car, the other two Arabs behind him. “I don’t understand.” Reb Elazar also turned around, stepping in front of the vehicle. “You don’t have Osher? You didn’t kidnap him?” “No.” Yussuf opened the door and took out two bottles that were on the floor near the driver’s seat. “Do you mind? Here’s a bit of water. By nightfall I hope you’ll make it to the main road. And if not, the police will surely find you with their helicopters.” “By nightfall,” Rabbi Reiness repeated very slowly. “Mr. Yussuf, you don’t really mean to leave me here. I
have to get home…” He looked into the man’s eyes. “You know that I have to get home,” he repeated. “Sure.” Yussuf climbed in and slammed the door behind him. “Sure I know. That’s what we don’t want, Reiness.” He paused, and when he saw that Elazar did not plan to move, he whispered something to the young driver, who started the engine. “You’d better move,” Yussuf called, sticking his head out the window, “because we’ll be driving now.” The sound of the engine grew louder, and Elazar stepped aside, pressing against the rock wall. That was enough. He didn’t need to be moser nefesh for this thing. If Hashem wanted, he would get home in time. If Hashem wanted, the meeting at the culmination of these seventy years would still take place today, somehow. Or, if Hashem willed it, it would not happen. That was also a possibility that, as a believing Jew, he had to take into consideration. To be continued…

PERFECTLY BALANCED CUTLET MEAL
BY: FAIGY FULOP
There are multiple ways to prep the lean and versatile chicken cutlet. Here I opt for a colorful mix of greens and satiating veggie carbs to attain the perfect balance as a complete meal. For picky eaters, the cutlets can be served as a sandwich or with their favorite vegetable replacements. Tip: Avocado oil is so much easier on your digestive system than some of its counterparts. Fill a spray bottle with avocado oil to replace other spray oils, and use it as a handy staple during grilling (taking care not to spray on the open fire).

Spanning the Centuries A HISTORICAL OVERVIEW OF BROOKLYN BRIDGE PARK BY: T. GESTETNER
Bollards and cleats dot the playground, evocative of the world that was. Spanning 1.3 miles along Brooklyn’s East River, this 85-acre coastal park is sure to catch the attention of water-lovers, New York skyline admirers, and, of course, good-old local New Yorkers looking for an enjoyable place to air out. Let’s flip the calendar pages some years back for a glimpse at the rich marine past of the Brooklyn Bridge Park.

t is the mid-1600s, and the East River is busy. The trade economy is growing, and this waterway is a prime mode of transport for boats and ferries hauling cargo. Flowing from the Atlantic Ocean through the New York Harbor, the East River connects the city to the world. Welcome to this site of vibrant commerce!
After the first ferry landing opens in 1642, a small town called “het Veer,” or “the Ferry,” develops around the pier area. This spot becomes famous during the American Revolutionary War: On the night of August 29, 1776, George Washington and his troops flee the British Army by escaping from het Veer across the East River to Manhattan. Soon, travel and trade between Brooklyn and Manhattan pick up steam with the start of Robert Fulton’s steam-powered Fulton Ferry company in 1814. However, the goods delivered The Union Ferry Company’s ferryboat Faralong the shoreline ragut on the Fulton Ferry route; circa 1900 need to be trans110

ported further inland, and so railroad lines begin to crop up. The tracks lead up directly to the piers, where storage warehouses are built to house the products until they can be moved along the tracks. Multiple finger piers run along the East River by now, and each one has its specialty. Pier 3, for instance, is prominent for its stowage of lumber and building supplies. Three piers down, Pier 6 is one of the busiest coffee ports in the country, with rows and rows of huts storing raw coffee as it is imported. Interestingly, raw coffee doesn’t smell quite as pleasant as its brewed counterpart. In the late 1800s, the Empire Stores pop up. These seven adjoining four- to five-story landmark warehouses hold a

variety of merchandise, from sugar and molasses to animal hides, wool and rubber from around the world. The shipbuilding industry is fully active as well. The East River is a turbulent, narrow waterway, yet at this point it is one of the busiest and most important channels in the world, crammed with boats and bustling with commerce.
Slowing Down In 1883, the New York skyline is punctuated with a new landmark: the Brooklyn Bridge. For the first time, Manhattan and Brooklyn are linked. While the completion of the bridge heralds a new era of economic opportunity and resolves Manhattan’s housing shortage, it also signals the twilight of the East River sea trade. With the bridge bypassing the

waterfront, people begin to focus more on inland development, and the demand for ferries sees a sharp decline. A few years later, when the Manhattan Bridge joins the scene in 1909, the piers are further devalued. There is less of a need for boats to help people make their way from Brooklyn to Manhattan and back. The ferry trade industry slows further, and it isn’t smooth sailing at all for the Brooklyn waterfront. Soon the once-dynamic center of commerce is largely neglected. By 1924, the Fulton Ferry Landing closes down. For several years, the East River waters are relatively still. Then, along with the construction of the BQE — the Brooklyn Queens Expressway — in the 1950s, comes an attempt to revitalize the harbor. The narrow finger piers that jut out from the dry land are replaced with wider piers, and now larger ships and cargo vessels can dock comfortably. Yet this renewal is shortlived. By the 1970s, the Brooklyn waterfront is once again largely desolate and abandoned. Cargo operations officially grind to a halt in 1983.

A Public Space Of course, it is a tremendous shame for such a prime location to remain idle, especially since it is a prominent site with such a glorious past! The first mention of a new use for the waterfront comes in 1984, when the Port Authority announces plans to sell the piers for commercial development. The public is less than enthusiastic. The community prefers to reserve the space for public use. Soon there is a public movement pushing for the creation of a park on the site. It is amazing to think what a grassroots campaign, endorsed by communal support, can accomplish. After much lobbying of government officials across local, city and state levels, there seems to be hope. In 1998, planning begins. By September 2000, a conceptual framework for the park is drawn up. In May 2002, Governor George Pataki and Mayor Michael Bloomberg sign a memorandum approving state and city funding for the park, and a corporation is appointed to direct its design and construction. The architects of the park are on a 118

mission: to create an exceptional public space that connects people, nature and the waterfront through innovative and sustainable management and design. One caveat is that the park is required to be financially self-sufficient for maintenance and operations. The long-term funding must include revenue-producing plans. This opens the door to various options. The Port Authority pushes for a riverside residential development with several thousand housing units surrounded by a 20-acre park. The Brooklyn Heights Association prefers that the park occupy most of the space, with some hotels and restaurants dotting the length of it. In the end, a 108-unit condominium development, the Pierhouse, as well as a 194-key hotel, 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge, are erected. Both are designed to blend in with the park design. Finally, in 2010, after years of planning and preparation, the first section of parkland is complete. In the following decade, other areas of the park gradually open to the public.

program and public seining events, where marine biologists use a seine net to catch and display various organisms living in the water (most seining events take place on Shabbos). In season, a ferry chugs from the pier to Governors Island and back. There are things to do and sights to see for visitors of all ages — from bike paths, soccer fields, basketball courts, picnic tables and playgrounds, to sprawling lawns planted with grass, trees and flowers… and of course, unparalleled views of the famous Lower Manhattan skyline. One exciting attraction in the park is Jane’s Carousel in the Empire Fulton Ferry section of the park. Built in 1922, it was restored and donated by David and Jane Walentas as a gift to the park. There are hints to Brooklyn Bridge Park’s rich industrial history everywhere. At Pier 3, you may notice an original pier label sign. Old railroad ties that were discovered during construction are to be refurbished and mounted alongside kaleidoscope mirrors in an inventive play feature. Throughout the park area, restored bollards and cleats, once used to moor boats to the piers using thick ropes, are scattered playfully. The Park Conservancy does its utmost to ensure no one forgets what an active, prominent part these piers played in the New York port that was, and every visitor means one more person who doesn’t forget. 122

FROM THE SEFER “HAKESER VEHAKAVOD”: FROM THE SEFER “HAKESER VEHAKAVOD”:
Harav Shalom Schwadron zt”l explained, “Women are unaware that the permissibility of
wearingAvraham a sheitel Dovid was a Horowitz debated issue poskim. Indeed, there are over HaRav zt”l,among Rav ofthe Strausberg, (Mechaber Seforim twenty-four gedolei haposkim who forbade it. And even Shailos U’Teshuvos Kinyan Torah) stated:clearly s for those who go according to the opinions of the poskim who permitted it, do they think that these rabbanim
“Those whoto wear goa with wigeven look exactly asthereif permitted a woman sheitel thatadoesn’t look like a wig? For this, is no heter in the world!” their hair is uncovered.” (Kinyan Torah, Chelek Daled, Siman 129)
“What the Shiltei Giborim wrote… this is only concerning the din of ervah, of saying Kriyas Shema in front of her husband. But from the aspect of Pritzus, and in the market in front of others, it is learned from the verse, ‘And he uncovered the woman’s head…’ since Pritzus brings to improper thoughts, how can one differentiate between hair attached to the scalp or not? A person sees in front of him a woman with loose hair! And this is forbidden by the Torah! Certainly he has no way to get close and look at the woman in order to determine if the hair
is hers or not. Who knows if this is not the reason for the lengthy bitter Golus because Bnei Torah are negligent in public with a possible Issur De’oraisa!! I am very saddened that the Gedolim of our times are not making a noise about this breach and especially when I see here and there a Kol Korei warning about the Issur of long wigs, as if they are giving a stamp of approval to short ones! There are many women who think the whole matter is simply one of Chassidus, but if they would know that it is a matter of halacha they would correct the matter Be’ezras Hashem, as HaRav Shlomo Kluger wrote in the Sefer Tuv Taam Vadas. And in the merit of the righteous women we were redeemed and Be’ezras Hashem in their merit it will happen in our generation too!”

An Impromptu Picnic BY: DASSI LEVI
The kitchen is clean. The chairs are smear-free. You managed to make just one frying pan dirty while preparing supper. And now it’s suppertime. You look around at the clean surfaces one more time, and invite the troops in. But the thing is that even though you’re willing to sacrifice orderliness for a well-fed crew, it’s not happening. Because no one is coming. The outdoors is just too tempting to be forsaken. What do you do in such a case? Let the food congeal into sorry cold globs while your kids run around in the great outdoors on empty stomachs? Go out and fetch kids from random points on the block, only to have the others disappear each time you arrive back to the kitchen with another reluctant fellow? Keep the kids hostage indoors until supper is served so you don’t have to do the scavenger hunt to begin with? Here’s what I do: I start to pack my picnic bag.

WHERE TO? I’m lucky to live just a hop and skip away from a public school with gorgeous grassy grounds. And public schools ‘round these parts are accessible to the public after school hours. (After all, it’s our tax money that backs its maintenance and very existence!) Check if that’s the case in your area, too. But that’s by far not the only one of my picnic options. Local parks make great picnic grounds, and in a pinch, even a park bench does. A stretch of grass in any bungalow colony, or your or your mother’s/ sister’s/friend’s yard, even with just a bit of grass, work too — and even the back porch can host a picnic. Spread a picnic blanket on the floor, and any space gets instantly transformed to something fun enough for kids to actually consider joining. On rainy days we’ve even picnicked on the dining room floor!
ON WHAT? A very amazing thing I have on hand is a zippered picnic blanket like this one. It has water protection, which keeps those sitting on it dry in case of dew-dappled grass. It’s also cheerful and inviting (a very important factor when trying to feed my crew), and it compactly folds up into a neat little tote that the kids love to carry. After each use it goes straight into the washer, then dryer, and then is ready for the next picnic. If you really get to love picnics that much, you can even get two pieces, for fleishig and milchig respectively. You can pick up picnic blankets like these in most big-box, department or closeout stores. And while this is super convenient, a large blanket works too, as do disposable plastic tablecloths, whether clear or colored.
Cut-up fruits (watermelon especially) always work for picnics. They’re refreshing and hydrating and sweet. I take along toothpicks to aid in clean(er), germ-free(er) consumption.

The Perfect Picnic List Tablecloth or picnic blanket
HOW TO PACK
Food in individual containers or pans
Oh, but you didn’t cook with a picnic in mind… Of course you didn’t. You were hoping that today was the day when those kids will hungrily show up at the table at 5:30 and sweetly ask, “What’s for dinner? I’m starved!” But most meals can be converted to picnic material in a jiffy, no sectional containers required. (If you cook five-course meals every night, replete with soup and steak, and your preschoolers eat with knives and forks, well, I already lost you way back at the beginning, so I don’t mean you.) The trick is to prepare individual portions for each kid. Depending on the menu, and how my paper good stock looks, here’s how I’d pack up the stuff. If there’s chicken cutlets on the menu, I will often slice them up, throw together a salad (pasta works beautifully in a salad and makes this a balanced one-bowl meal), and put tiny containers of dressing into each one. If I have flatter containers, I use them, but 16-ounce plastic containers are perfect. They close snugly and tightly and pile up beautifully. Containers are also perfect for portions of meatballs and spaghetti, soups and anything that needs the drip-protection a good seal offers. Sometimes I will opt to thread cutlet strips onto skewers (you can do it once it’s fried or baked) so that the kids have the option of finger food they don’t actually touch. Cut-up veggies and skewers are also a great picnic pair.

If it’s a meal like chicken and potatoes (or fish and rice, or meat and quinoa), I use 5x7inch pans with lids and place a portion in each. Once we spread out the blanket, I hand each kid their meal. Does your kid not let anything she eats touch anything else she eats? We know those types too! A piece of silver foil folded over several times makes a perfect partition, or that kid gets three pans — and more space on the blanket. Cue the fights. I usually have some kind of reusable or paper bag with a flat bottom on hand, which is great for holding the containers or pans. After putting in all the food, I add a stack of napkins, a paper towel roll, or a tissue box (wipes are especially helpful!). Drinks are not something I ever like to forget, so I’ll either throw in water bottles or just a large bottle of water or juice and a stack of plastic cups.
TO EACH ITS OWN For me, this works. I find that in the outdoors my kids are calmer, I am calmer, and cleanup is a cinch. But if you prefer to plan your picnics in advance and not rattle your schedule with something as impromptu as this — by all means, plan it. But don’t come back to complain when an unexpected downpour rains on your parade, or all of the family members back out before you can even pack up the skewer-only supper!

Let’s Go To the Park BY: CHAYA BLUSTEIN
To romp or relax, to picnic or play, a trip to the park is an integral part of summer fun. Especially when you’re not traveling to the mountains for picturesque grassy fields and pretty hikes, it’s good to know that there’s plenty of scenic beauty and recreational space ever so close to home. Let’s explore some local parks for a whole new definition of city living. PLEASE NOTE: ON WARMER DAYS, YOU MAY WANT TO AVOID PARKS LOCATED NEAR WATER.
Brooklyn Bridge Park The Brooklyn Bridge Park claims to have the best views of any park in Brooklyn. It’s located on the East River waterfront, with a pedestrian/bike path that passes through six piers. You’ll see large ships and small sailboats riding the waves as you stroll along the shore, and across the bridge, you’ll see Manhattan with its famous New York skyline. There are lush grassy fields all along the park, many of which also feature picnic areas. If you’re coming with kids, the best part of Brooklyn Bridge Park has nothing to do with the view and everything to do with its many playgrounds. In addition to swings and slides, the Brooklyn Bridge playground at Pier 6 features a delightful sandbox, a slide mountain, and a swing valley with rope-style swings. The Pier 5 playground has an interesting climbing contraption, and Pier 1 boasts a mini-playground that’s perfect for toddlers. You’ll find sprinklers and water activities at Pier 2 for kids to cool off on a hot, sweaty day. Visit:

Prospect Park It’s a favorite of many Brooklynites, and for good reason. Prospect Park features a boathouse for boat rentals in the summer, where you can go kayaking and pedal-boating on the idyllic lake surrounded by trees. There are also surrey bike rentals, so you can circle the 3.35-mile bike path as a family in a vehicle that looks something like an old-fashioned open carriage. Because Prospect Park is so large, with over 585 acres of parkland, it’s possible to find a secluded spot even on days when the park is full. You can picnic or barbecue — the latter only in the park’s designated grilling areas. Here’s also where you can indulge your hiking passion, as Prospect Park’s hiking trails wind through Brooklyn’s only forest and can also lead you to a small waterfall called the Fallkill Falls. As you walk along the wooded paths, all of which meander leisurely through the trees, it’ll feel like you’re passing through a country forest. (There are no straight paths in Prospect Park. All of its footpaths were designed to be winding.) Visit:

Sunset Park In the middle of the flatness that Brooklyn is all about, Sunset Park’s elevation comes as a surprise. If you visit this pretty little park, you’ll find yourself atop a big hill looking down at the waterfront, enjoying a clear view all the way to Manhattan. Just as its name indicates, the best time for enjoying the view is at sunset, when the sun sinks behind the tall skyscrapers and the reflection is seen on the water. All you need to do is find a bench near a tree at the top of Sunset Park for a magnificent experience. This park has trees, grass and benches, plus footpaths that seem to bring you straight to the water. It’s a great place for relaxing or playing ball and other outdoor activities. Just keep in mind that bicycles, skates and scooters are not allowed inside the park, so save those for a different time and place. Visit:

Marine Park This is the biggest park Brooklyn has to offer, and it’s pretty big, with a total of 798 acres of land. Most of the land — 530 acres — is made up of salt marsh created by the Atlantic Ocean. The tide flows in from Jamaica Bay through Gerritsen Creek, and the seawater deposits silt and salt all along the marsh. It’s a unique mix of dry land, beach land and wetland, which kids can enjoy exploring — think, a huge sandbox already mixed with mud! The mile-long gravel path along the wetland marsh makes a perfect hiking trail, too. More fun activities include the pedal-boat rentals available to be taken out on the water, plus you can try the biking path with bikes, scooters, or other wheels you’d like to ride. Visit:
Fillmore Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11229
Owl’s Head Park Why it’s called Owl’s Head Park is anyone’s guess, though theories abound, of course. Perhaps the piece of land originally was shaped like an owl’s head, or owls actually used to live there (which others dismiss as impossible), or it was simply named for the owl sculptures that adorned the private estate that these grounds were part of years ago. In any case, the name definitely lends the park a whimsical touch. Visiting this park is actually perfect in wintertime, when the hills are snow-covered and perfect for sledding. But if you chance by in the summertime, there’s still plenty to enjoy in Owl’s Head Park, what with the lush green on the hills, the shimmering view of the water in New York Harbor and the kid-friendly playground. Oh, and you’re still free to roll down those hills, snow-covered or not! You can also cross over Shore Road to get to the pier on the water, and to ferries to Governors Island. Visit:

WNYC Transmitter Park It’s a small park, but in Brooklyn every little green space is celebrated. Originally, the area was home to radio transmitters owned by the WNYC radio station. The transmitters were used from 1937 to 1990, but they eventually moved to New Jersey. For a few years, the property stood empty. In 2010, construction of the park began, and in 2012, it opened to the public. The park includes a large lawn with a children’s playground, and it is situated on the waterfront, so there’s a beautiful view of the East River for visitors to take in as they lounge on the grass. If you prefer, you can walk across the pedestrian bridge and get up close to the water. Visit:
Greenpoint Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11222
Domino Park You may have never heard of Domino Park, for the simple reason that it’s new. The park just opened to the public in June 2018. Located in Williamsburg along the East River waterfront, it’s named for the factory that used to operate on these grounds: the Domino Sugar Refinery. The factory opened in 1880 and closed its doors in 2004, giving way to the park. This five-acre park features whimsical playgrounds designed to resemble the sugar-refining process, with round cylinders leading to tunnel slides that look just like the machinery used in the factory. (Actual parts of the machinery used in the factory can also be found around the park — look for blue cranes that unloaded the sugar shipments that came into the harbor.) There are also picnic table areas with seating for 100 people, and of course, the major attraction is simply walking along the promenade overlooking the water and the Williamsburg Bridge. Visit:

Bush Terminal Park Another little waterfront oasis, Bush Terminal Park is pretty obscure. That makes it a good choice, however, if you like to have your nature time to yourself. Walk along the tide ponds that line its waterfront or check out its nature preserve, which hosts animals and plants naturally found in the area. (Yes, animals and plants are naturally found in the area…) Visit:
Marginal Street and 43rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232
Fort Greene Park Fort Greene Park is named after — you guessed it — a fort that was active in the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812. While the fort was called Fort Putnam in 1776 when it was captured by the British, in 1812 it was rebuilt and named for Major General Nathanael Greene. And so Fort Greene came to be. Until today, the park commemorates history with a large stone monument in the middle of the park. This monument is in memory of the 11,500 prisoners who died aboard British prison ships, right off the park’s shore. This park gets the title of Brooklyn’s first park. It’s built on 30 acres of land and has lots of grass and trees for shade along the winding paths. A unique feature in the park is the butterfly garden, where monarch butterflies rest along their migration journey down south. Visit:

Brooklyn Botanic Garden The gorgeous gardens at Brooklyn Botanic Garden is an example of nature at its best. Each display of flowers, trees and waters is carefully designed and maintained. Some of the popular exhibits include the cherry blossom trees, the Japanese hill-and-pond garden, and the Cranford Rose Garden. Picnicking is not allowed in Brooklyn Botanic Garden, so keep that in mind when planning a trip. But don’t worry; you can still relax on the grass in many of the gardens, so you don’t need to stay on your feet throughout your stay. Visit:

Coney Island Coney Island doesn’t feature any grass or trees, but it’s perfect for a day out in nature or spent in recreation. Whether you’d like to play on the beach or watch the waves from the boardwalk, spend some time on the amusement rides at Luna Park or even simply at the playground, Coney Island might be the perfect destination. Fun fact: Coney Island is no longer an actual island today. It became a peninsula when the land connecting it to Long Island on one side was filled; it’s still surrounded by water on the other three sides. Visit:

The tree stump tells the story of a life cut short, of a flourishing tree felled in its prime. The fresh lumber smell and roughly cut edge don’t last long; soon the stump weathers and decays. Should you let it be or have it removed? Read on for some ins and outs of existing tree stumps. Up a Tree?
7% TO 19% The amount by which strategically planted mature trees can increase your property value.
Trees that are unhealthy or rooted too close to the house decrease the property’s net worth.
Tree stumps fall in the second category. They are typically unattractive in your yard and negatively affect the resale value of your home.
A May 2021 survey assesses that the average stump removal in the United States costs between $175 and $516.
Why remove? Stumps are a hazard and may cause passersby to fall. This, in turn, poses a liability risk if others stumble over them. When mowing the lawn, a stump is an obstacle that can potentially harm the lawn mower. New sprouts or little saplings may begin to grow around the stumps. Stumps attract wood-boring insects such as beetles, termites and ants.
Home-grown ideas for DIY stump removal If you’ve got time on your side, you can try prompting an unwanted stump to naturally decay more quickly. Spray it with vinegar.
Drill holes in it and fill with salt.
Build a compost pile on top.
Turn it into a flower pot, filling it with soil and seeds.

Branching Out Stumps need not remain an eyesore. Should you decide to keep that stump in your yard, here are some ways to make it stand out attractively. Think chess, checkers, tic-tac-toe… Design it as a board game base!
Regrowth Some trees, like oak, maple, hazel and ash trees, regenerate naturally. When these are cut down, new shoots spring up from the stumps. In an attempt to maintain a sustainable supply of timber, foresters chop such trees to the ground in a method known as “coppicing,” which stimulates growth.
Carve a chair or table out of it to provide a nice place to sit down. Use it as a planter or bird bath. Take it up a notch by painting garden art or chisel an appealing carving on it.
Is It a Myth? Tree-ring dating, or dendrochronology, is a method used to date trees. Trees grow wider every year, growing one ring wider each growing season. There are loads more environmental particulars that specialists can glean from this scientific method, which, in fact, is not a myth at all.
Pioneering Expressions in the U.S. As early settlers moved westward, they looked to clear their land to make for better farmland. The pioneers cut their way through difficult terrain, chopping down many trees in the process. Stumps became one of their greatest obstacles. With a wide ax, they’d dig around the stump, severing its roots. When that didn’t help them easily get the stump out, they would hook chains to the roots and have oxen or horses tug them out. Some stumps were so big that two or three horses were used to get them out. Finally, these pioneers also tried burning or blasting stumps out of the way. It was common for one settler to ask another if his land was cleared. “Nope, I’m still stumped,” would come the reply. And that was the seedling that yielded the popular saying of our day. Confused? Blocked? Don’t know what to say? “I’m stumped!” Soon the idiom garnered political implication. Legend has it that George Washington would rise on large tree stumps to address his colonial troops back in 1775. It was a natural, practical platform that both served a great purpose and opened the stage for “stump speakers,” or political or passionate orators wishing to support a cause. Until today, when politicians travel the length and breadth of the country on speaking engagements during their election campaigns, they’re said to be “on the stump.”

The Big Stump Trail in Kings Canyon National Park, California, boasts a winding trail that passes huge sequoia stumps.

Most notable is the Mark Twain Stump, the remnants of a Giant Sequoia that was 16 feet in diameter. It was cut down by the army in 1891 in order to be shown to incredulous crowds in New York and London, who couldn’t believe a tree could grow so large.

Stumped by the Ban In his classic verse style, Dr. Seuss penned “The Lorax” in 1971. It is a whimsical tale of stumps and tree-chopping. His message focused on saving the environment. In 1989, the book was banned in California, a state with an iconic logging industry, out of fear that kids would protest the tree-chopping rampant in their area.
