Maimonides CEO, Ken Gibbs, is full of hot air.
“I’m not aware of a serious problem,” said Ken Gibbs, President/CEO of Maimonides Medical Center, when confronted about the hospital’s airconditioning repeatedly breaking.
This season's soaring temperatures already see patients suffering from heat-related issues in addition to the discomfort of being in overheated hospital rooms.
If Ken Gibbs doesn’t care about getting cooling systems fixed, what hope is there for quality patient care at Maimonides? דאמ

Little children matter.
Being at the leining of Aseres Hadibros on the 1st day of Shavuos, is like standing at Har Sinai and receiving the Torah from Hashem - anew. We don’t want to miss this, Let’s be there with all our children.
All Men Women & Children were present at Matan Torah 2448. Children didn’t miss it then, they shouldn’t miss it now!
The Lubavitcher Rebbe ל"קוצז, along with many Gedolei Yisroel, encourage parents to bring all their children - including little babies, to shul for the reading of Aseres Hadibros, on the 1st day of Shavuos.
We want our children - even babies, to be present when Hashem gives us the Torah.

THE CAMP SPIRIT
(Re: Inbox, Issue 184)
I’m writing in response to the letter writer who asked camps to schedule trips during regular daytime hours instead of during off-

hours or evenings.
Your point is valid, and it’s a great idea in theory. However, destinations aren’t always available for us during regular business hours; they’re busy hosting regular visitors then. When we need to rent out entire attractions for tznius reasons or other considerations, they can only accommodate us after regular hours.
Thank you,
A ROYAL WEDDING
(Re: Inbox, Issue 184)
A Local Camp Director
When I married off my children, I discussed their weddings with them in advance. I asked them to maintain their decorum and behave at their wedding the way they imagined the Queen of England would.
I saw photos of the recent coronation. Did we see poppers, streamers or the king standing on a table throwing candies? Did we see him jumping rope with a tablecloth or playing ball? Let’s remember that we are Hashem’s royal children.
Are there any kallahs out there mature enough to stand their ground and cancel all the shtick?
Our parents’ weddings didn’t look like a carnival, and you’ll be proud to show your children that your wedding didn’t look like one either.
Oif simchas!

YOUR SAY
A CHILD’S WEAPON
Dear fellow Yiddishe mother,
I am writing this letter with tremendous gratitude to Hashem that our traumatic experience ended well.
G.F.Many of you have treated your boys to the exhilarating fun of owning electric scooters, while the rest of us “unfairly” (as our own boys see it) keep our own sons away. Last night, the reason behind my refusal to purchase one was very clearly seen by all the children on our block.
We live on a block populated by hundreds of Yiddishe children, baruch Hashem, so the sight of scooters and Segways zipping past at all times is a common one. Yesterday, a group of children was settled on the grass near the sidewalk when a young boy on his set of electric wheels came scooting down our block at high speed.
The young children at the side jumped up, as did my seven-year-old son. Unfortunately, he didn’t realize that he was too close to a fire hydrant, and as he jumped up, his head hit the metal cover. I was alerted by the frightful shrieking of the neighborhood kids, who were traumatized by the blood pouring from his head.
My son came running inside looking green, bleeding heavily from the top of his head, and feeling dizzy and faint. Hatzolah sent us to get the hole in his head stapled, and we thank Hashem that besides for feeling faint and puncturing his head, the saga will end with an easy recovery, im yirtzeh Hashem
As for the boy on the scooter? He blissfully continued on his way, not even realizing what chaos and pain he left behind.
Mothers, if you have made the choice to trust your kids with this dangerous toy, then it is your responsibility to ensure that their speed and path is safe for others on the street. There is a reason rabbanim in Eretz Yisroel have banned the electric scooter. Please speak to your son about this… as it might have been him!
Your neighbor and fellow mother, S.K.

SHAVUOS
A Precious Gift
Chazal in Maseches Shabbos (88b) describe the following scene:
When Moshe Rabbeinu went up to Shamayim to receive the Torah, the malachim argued. “Why should the Torah be given to mortals? Tenah hodecha al hashamayim! ”
Hashem then told Moshe to reply to the malachim .
“What does it say in the Torah?” Moshe began. And he proceeded to detail the Aseres Hadibros, pointing out that they do not apply to malachim . “It says, ‘Anochi Hashem asher hotzeisicha m’eretz Mitzrayim .’
Were you in bondage under Pharaoh? And do you ever work?
Are you able to rest on Shabbos? Do you have parents whom you can honor? Do you have a yetzer hara?”
The malachim soon conceded to Moshe’s argument.
This exchange seems odd. Any simple person understands Moshe’s explanation. Why did the malachim even think that they deserve the Torah?
IT WAS YOM KIPPUR in the city of Petersburg, under the rule of the Czar. The atmosphere was electric, sweeping up the entire crowd in the pursuit of teshuvah and tefillah. Simple and learned — all kinds of Yidden were present. Also among the mispallelim were two of the city’s wealthiest men: Baron Ginzberg and Baron Pollack.
Ne’ilah was approaching. The gabbai stood at the bimah, ready to auction off the great zechus of pesichas ha’aron for Tefillas Ne’ilah. He began with the substantial sum of 500 rubles, and the bid quickly rose higher and higher, until Baron Ginzberg offered 2,000 rubles for the kibbud
Baron Pollack was sitting on the side. He was among those who attended shul just once a year, on Yom Kippur. But when he heard Baron Ginzberg’s offer, he quickly outbid him with a larger amount and received the kibbud for the astronomical sum of 2,500 rubles.
“What do I need to do?” Pollack asked the gabbai
“Go up the steps leading to the aron kodesh and move the paroches. Then open the doors.”
Pollack did as he was told and then remained standing at the top of the stairs. “Now what?”
The gabbai directed him to come down, and Chazaras Hashatz began.
After davening, Baron Pollack was once again called to the aron kodesh. Again, he asked what he must do, and the gabbai gave him step-by-step instructions.
Later, Baron Pollack was asked, “Why were you ready to pay such a high sum for something you knew nothing about?!”
“True,” Baron Pollack replied. “I had no idea what I was buying. But I did know that if a successful businessman like Baron Ginzberg was ready to pay 2,000 rubles for it, it must be good merchandise. It must have real value. That’s how I knew this deal was worth pursuing.”
The Dubno Maggid further expounds upon our aforementioned question with the following mashal:
CHILDREN GOWN SALE
There was once a rav who served his community for decades, caring for the members’ needs like a true father. He set up shuls, yeshivos and mikvaos. He also taught the locals Torah and answered their shailos. Of course, his devotion to his constituents made him very beloved by all.
But he was getting on in years, and he felt that the burden of such a large kehillah was simply too much for his waning strength. After much thought, he decided to move to a smaller community, where his responsibilities would be lighter and easier to handle, and he would be able to sit and learn with less stress.
The rav decided to reach out to a neighboring village on the outskirts of his city to ask if they would accept him as rav. But before he wrote his letter, he gathered the roshei kehillah of the community to make sure they would be okay with his move. The men were disappointed to hear that their dear rav would be leaving, but they understood his decision and agreed.
Just as sad as his followers were that they would be losing their longtime rav, that’s how exuberant the villagers were with the rav’s offer. It was incredible to think that such a prominent personality was prepared to join them! They waited for inauguration day with excitement and prepared a fitting reception.
On the appointed day, as the wagon that came to pick up the rav waited outside his home, the people of his city gathered. “Don’t leave!” they cried. “We want the rav to stay!” They formed a human fence, blocking the rav from leaving his home.
The rav was shocked. He wasn’t escaping! He had received approval from the townspeople to go!
“Why, you’ve endorsed this move!” he said. “Why are you stopping me now?”
“Chas v’shalom!” the men replied. “We won’t stop the rav from leaving. We just mean your honor! We don’t want the villagers to think we discharged you from the position, or that there was any argument in town that caused you to leave. We want them to see that you are precious in our eyes! We want them to see how hard it is for us that you are leaving, so they should realize what a special rav they are getting. Then they will honor and value you properly!”
The Dubno Maggid explains:
The malachim knew that the Torah was not suitable for them, and was intended for Klal Yisroel alone.
The reason they argued that the Torah should remain in Shamayim was so that Klal Yisroel should know to appreciate the precious gift that Hakadosh Baruch Hu was giving them. By seeing how badly the malachim desired the Torah, the Torah’s value would go up in the Yidden’s eyes, and we would then know how to regard it and treat it — with the highest level of reverence.
The rav was shocked. He wasn’t escaping! He had received approval from the townspeople to go!
My 11 year old son was struggling to read. We sent him to many tutors but saw no improvement, and his anxiety and frustration was worsening each passing day. At first, he refused to go for any additional help, but 3 months ago he agreed to go to Mosaic since it is a fun and exciting program.
This past shabbos, I was delighted and pleasantly surprised to see him for the very first time relaxing on the couch while reading a book!
When Mosaic came onto the scene, I was eager to see how the Davis method would be implemented -- and I was not disappointed. The students who joined the program made progress almost immediately. We saw tremendous strides in their reading levels. As a result, their confidence and overall performance improved. They used their tools they were learning at Mosaic to help them across all subjects.
I would recommend Mosaic for the struggling student who hasn't responded to regular remediation.

Boro Parkers Protest Proposed 57th Street Zoning Change at Borough Hall Hearing
Hoping to thwart a proposed zoning change that would allow a Staten Island developer to construct a housing project up to nine stories high on a residential street, several dozen Boro Parkers flocked to a Borough Hall hearing in order to express their concerns to Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso.
VIN News reported that attorney Richard Lobell presented renderings of a 46-unit project that would be between four and five stories high at the May 15 hearing, a scaled down version of an earlier plan for an eight-story building with a tenfoot bulkhead. The project is being developed on several adjacent parcels of land located on 57th Street between 12th and 13th avenues that is currently zoned R5, for a maximum height of three stories. The developer has been requesting R6A zoning, which would allow a height of up to 100 feet.
Lobell attempted to alleviate residents’ concerns about congestion, parking and safety, citing studies saying that the development would not have a negative impact on traffic and explaining that the building would have 52 underground parking spaces. But those words rang hollow for those living in the area, including driving instructor Mark Hirschhorn, who invited Reynoso to visit Boro Park on any day between 8:30 a.m. and 6 p.m. to observe the difficult driving conditions on 57th Street. Resident David Steinberg addressed the parking issue, saying that it was unrealistic to assume that those living in the new building would park only in the underground lot and not on the street.
Boro Park resident Abe Klein noted that Lobell had failed to adequately answer Reynoso, who asked why he was still applying for R6A zoning, when the more modest R6 zoning would more than suffice if the developer truly planned to limit the building’s size to just four to five stories.
“The utter refusal of the developer to do a text amendment to his current application should tell us all where he is heading with this,” said Klein.
In an interview with journalist Shimon Gifter, Lobell acknowledged that the developer might be open to a compromise on the size of the building, if necessary. Architect Nick Riveras told Gifter that the units would be priced at far less than market value, although the $45-per-square-foot price would have a five-bedroom duplex renting at approximately $7,500 per month. Rivera also acknowledged that the developer, who had previously built several large housing projects in Williamsburg, had not realized how much Boro Parkers value home ownership.
“We thought it was one thing going in, and maybe we didn’t do enough research as to what these fine gray nuances are, the differences between the communities are,” said Riveras.
Having a zoning change approved involves multiple public hearings, with the final say belonging to the City Council. Community Board 12 has already cast its vote in an advisory capacity against the zoning change, with Reynoso’s opinion the second component of the process. Another hearing will be held with the city planning commission before the proposed zoning change is heard by the City Council, which will decide to approve or reject the developer’s request for the zoning change.
Rebuffed by Nearby Counties, Adams Sends Asylum Seekers to the Catskills
Eighty asylum seekers arrived in Liberty, New York, last week, just hours after Sullivan County declared a state of emergency in an attempt to prevent New York City Mayor Eric Adams from relocating busloads of migrants to the Catskills.
Issued at 1 p.m. on May 18, Sullivan’s state of emergency said that its severe housing crisis made it impossible for the county to absorb the migrants that Adams is trying to offload from the five boroughs. County officials said that they were given less than 24 hours’ notice of the asylum seekers arrival, with the migrants dropped off at the Knights Inn on Route 52 approximately four hours after the state of emergency went into effect, reported Mid Hudson News.
Sullivan County Legislature Chairman Rob Doherty said that the migrants are hurting the local economy, with the county’s supply of hotel rooms, which numbered 71,000 in 1969, dwindling to less than 2,000 today.
“The county is busier and busier every year,” said Doherty. “Tourism has taken off. We have invested heavily in tourism, and now we are losing bed space for people who come and stay during our peak season.”
Rockland was the first New York county to declare a state of emergency in response to the migrant crisis, with more than a dozen others following suit. An update provided by Rockland officials alleged that the mayor’s efforts to house illegal migrants outside New York City had devastating results for 20 homeless veterans in Orange County, as well as a homeless single mother of an 18-month-old and at least one more family in Yonkers, all of whom were evicted from their hotels to make way for asylum seekers.
“These are the inhumane consequences being caused by the City of New York’s failure to plan for a crisis they knew was coming,” said Rockland County Executive Ed Day.
With New York City’s population shrinking from 8.8 million at the start of the pandemic to 8.3 million today, Adams claim that there is no room to house migrants within the five boroughs falls flat, said Day.
“The fact that the largest city in our entire country believes Rockland, the smallest county in the State of New York, has the resources to undertake this, just underscores the lack of plan-
ning that was done by the Adams administration, and every single emergency order declared across New York municipalities these last two weeks was done for the exact same reason,” noted Day.
The list of counties that declared states of emergency includes Broome, Chemung, Cortland, Dutchess, Genesee, Greene, Herkimer, Oneida, Orange, Orleans, Oswego, Otsego, Rensselaer, St. Lawrence, Schuyler and Tioga, with similar measures enacted in Suffolk County’s Town of Riverhead.
$25M State Allocation To Benefit Organizations Facing Hate Crime Threats
With anti-Semitic violence the most common hate crime in New York, the state is allocating $25 million in funding to be distributed to organizations serving communities at high risk for hate crimes and vandalism.
Governor Kathy Hochul announced the allocation at New York’s first-ever unity summit, which was held at Manhattan’s John Jay College on May 10 and had more than 500 leaders of ethnic and minority groups gathering to discuss ways to turn the tide on the growing wave of hate crimes. Part of New York State’s 2024 budget, the $25 million in funding is to be used to help organizations increase security measures as well as providing support trainings, public awareness campaigns and other outreach efforts.
“This is our defining moment — a moment to stand up as one New York and make clear there is no place for hate in our communities,” said Hochul.
New York’s 2024 budget also includes $3.5 million in funding for the state’s Hate and Bias Prevention Unit, which is headed by Lieutenant Governor Antonio Delgado and will be working with ten regional councils to address different biases and challenges throughout the state.
“Working together, I know we can make this state safer and more welcoming for all,” said Hochul.
Uber Now Just a Phone Call Away for Smartphone-Free Riders
Acknowledging the existence of a significant customer base that doesn’t use smartphones, Uber rolled out a new feature last week that allows riders to order a car over the phone.
The new option, rolled out on May 17, is available daily from 4 a.m. to 10 p.m. to riders who dial 1-833-USE-UBER anywhere in the United States where Uber is available. Calls must be placed from a cell phone that can accept text messages, giving Uber the ability to send pertinent information — including their driver’s name, picture, car model, license plate number and expected time of arrival — via text message. Rides can be scheduled up to 30 days in advance, with Uber agents providing an up-front price quote and creating accounts for riders who book trips via phone that will include their name and payment information.
Uber debuted its 833-USE-UBER toll free number as a limited pilot program in February 2020. The company noted at the time that it was hoping to appeal to older customers, many of whom preferred to have live conversations with an actual human.
The ridesharing giant announced two other family-friendly initiatives last week. Teen accounts will allow parents in select cities to track their 13- to 17-year-olds’ trips and include several other safety features, while Uber Car Seat gives New York City and Los Angeles riders the ability to order a car equipped with a Nuna RAVA car seat for little ones weighing between five to 65 pounds.
City Eyes New Restaurant Trash Program To Combat Rat Problems
Restaurant and bodega owners in New York City may soon be required to place their trash in closed containers instead of trash bags, the latest salvo in the ongoing war against rats.
WABC reported that the Department of Sanitation announced its trash containerization plan last week, which would also apply to food-related businesses. A public hearing will be held on June 22 regarding the initiative, which could take effect in July, potentially impacting 40,000 businesses.
DSNY Commissioner Jessica Tisch hailed the plan, which would have trash placed in “rigid receptacles with tight fitting lids,” as an idea whose time has come.
“It’s 2023,” said Tisch. “There’s no reason that black bags full of rat food should be sitting on the curbs of the greatest city in the world.”
Coney Island Man Indicted in Deadly 18th Avenue Crash
A 49-year-old Coney Island resident was indicted last week in connection with a March 20 crash that left two people dead and five injured.
Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez alleged that 49-year-old Vitaliy Konoplyov was speeding along 18th Avenue, running multiple red lights as he headed southbound. Konoplyov struck a black Honda HR-V, causing it to spin, jump the curb and strike both a pedestrian and another southbound vehicle on 18th Avenue. The driver of the Honda, 51-year-old Stancho Stanchev, and the pedestrian, 65-yearold Leunt Yuet, were both killed.
Konoplyov was indicted on charges of second-degree manslaughter, second- and third-degree assault, second-degree reckless endangerment, criminally negligent homicide and other related charges. He is being held on bail of $1 million bond or $250,000 cash and will be back in court again on June 21.
“This defendant’s alleged extreme recklessness caused the senseless deaths of two innocent people and inflicted serious injuries on others,” said Gonzalez. “New Yorkers deserve safe streets, and I am committed to holding accountable any driver who endangers the public with this kind of senseless and illegal conduct.”

CORPORATE SPONSORE:
CHAPTER 6
Recap: Fraidy Stroh escapes the Eisdorfs’ half-built house and her cousin Chevi’s nasty accusation that she’s jealous. The Eisdorfs take a two-week break from building while waiting to get approved for a construction loan.
Some mornings, when Fraidy was ready for school early, she was able to walk to school with her mother instead of taking the bus.
The morning schedule in the Stroh home was like a whole big puzzle. Shaya’s bus came early, at 7:40, so their mother was there to see him off. Their father came home from shul at eight, and during the next half hour, their mother flew around the house getting ready to leave for work while helping everyone else get ready for the day. When she left at 8:30, their father gave Fraidy and Tzippy breakfast. Fraidy’s bus came at 8:40, and at 9:15, their father put Tzippy on the bus and took Eli to the babysitter before going to kollel.
That day, Fraidy was ready at 8:30 and left the house together with her mother.
“Why do we live in such a small and nerdy apartment?” Fraidy asked as she skipped along at her mother’s side.
“Our apartment is small and nerdy? Why do you say that?”
She didn’t say that. Chevi had. But she didn’t want to tell her mother so, because maybe she would be insulted.
“We don’t have a playroom,” Fraidy said instead. “Or a living room. Or finger spots.”
Her mother gave a little laugh. “I see that Chevi gave you a tour of her house, huh? Don’t be jealous of the Eisdorfs, Fray. Everyone has different stuff in their lives, you know that, right?”
Now her mother also thought she was jealous. She wasn’t jealous! Really, really not, even if Chevi had said she was. She wanted to explain this to her mother, but she didn’t know how to. This whole thing didn’t make any sense.
Her mother’s phone rang. She answered, and for the rest of the walk to school, she held the phone at her ear, although she hardly said a word and only listened. Fraidy kept glancing up
at her, wondering who was on the line and why her mother looked so… upset. When they arrived at school, her mother moved the phone away from her ear and said, “Bye, Fraidy, have a great day,” but she wasn’t really focusing, Fraidy could tell. Whoever she was on the phone with was clearly getting her mother very aggravated.
The walk hadn’t been fun. Maybe it would’ve been better to take the bus that morning.
The classroom was empty when Fraidy arrived. She hung up her coat, organized her briefcase, and took out her history sheets to get a head start studying for the next day’s test.
She was halfway through with those sheets when the classroom door opened. A group of girls entered, talking and giggling.
“And it’s always a mess in there, because they don’t have enough closets, so stuff just piles up all over the place, and then when it comes to laundry, oh my, they seriously —”
Fraidy’s fingers went rigid around her history sheets. Chevi’s voice floated over her, around her, through her. The notes she was reading blurred before her eyes. She could barely breathe.
Nobody had noticed her presence yet. They went on talking and laughing, and soon the rest of their classmates came in until everyone kind of melted into their seats.
Fraidy was still sitting frozen in her seat, her cheeks burning, when Chevi casually walked up to her desk. “Hey, Fraidy. Do you have my Perler bead duck?”
“I…” Fraidy stammered.
“Well? Where is it?”
“I… it broke! I mean, it spilled before my mother had a chance to iron it. I didn’t remember how you designed it, so I couldn’t —”
But Chevi wasn’t listening. She pulled Sari Bauer over and sneered. “See, Sari? This is what happens in a house that doesn’t have a playroom. You can’t get a dumb little project done without everything spilling all over the place.”
For a moment Fraidy thought she saw Sari squirm, but then Sari just gave a fake-sounding giggle and said, “Yeah, totally.”
“I don’t even need some stupid Perler bead duck,” Chevi said, “but it’s good to know that your house isn’t a safe place to do stuff.”
By this time Tziporah Meyer and Shaindy Oberman were also clustered around Chevi, joining her in the horrible laughter. Fraidy’s eyes desperately sought out Shevy Schwartz, but her friend was sitting and reading something in her seat near the window and had missed the whole exchange.
The air in the classroom was suffocating, and it felt like forever before Mrs. Shiffer finally walked in.
For the rest of the day, Fraidy sat in her seat and didn’t utter a word.
Systems, as they applied to Mr. Gabioff, was a running joke between the employees at Kleenup. “By the time I quit this job, the system will be so systemized, I’ll be systematically systemified,” Adina regularly quipped.
So it wasn’t surprising or worrying when Mr. Gabioff called a meeting for 1:30, to discuss “a new system to streamline the workflow.” All it meant for Riva was that she’d have to squeeze the day’s work into an hour less time, which possibly meant skipping her lunch break. Nothing would be different after this meeting, because for all her boss’s talk, no changes would be implemented before he was ready to relinquish control over his business.
Which, being Mr. Gabioff, was never going to happen. Conducting those meetings was his system. That’s how he dealt with his frustration. Pounding on his desk and yelling, “There needs to be a system in place!” while his employees either cowered or snickered in their seats, helped him cool off, at least until the next frustrating incident.
He’d certainly dealt with a frustrating incident that morning, when Acker had called to cancel their cleaning. The reason was legitimate; there had been some leak in the house that would require plumbing repairs that day. Too bad that it was Riva’s account and she was therefore privileged to get an earful from him before she’d even clocked in. He hadn’t even
gowns
planation of her elaborate “vision” for the future of the company, Riva’s wonder over her confidence quickly turned into anxiety. Time was moving along, she had to leave very soon. Would this meeting ever end?
Shuli was clearly in no rush, and she kept going, another five minutes and another. Riva still had to deposit two payments before she left, and she couldn’t leave late, she had to pick up Eli from the babysitter and be home on time for Tzippy’s bus.
She caught Miriam’s attention and telepathized her nervousness. Miriam offered a helpless shrug in return. What was there to do?
Riva shifted, then gave an open glance at her watch. If Shuli or Mr. Gabioff noticed, they didn’t take the hint. The meeting continued with no end in sight.
Three more minutes. If this didn’t end in three minutes, she would just get up, apologize, and leave. There was no choice.
But when the three minutes were up, Shuli turned her attention to Riva and addressed her. “So with billing, the idea is to be consistent and insistent. We’re going to work on automating a lot of it, but there has to be that regularity, that when —”
Blah blah blah. She was grinding water with her fancy assonance, but Riva had to go Now
She opened her mouth to interrupt, but then Mr. Gabioff found something Shuli had said to be super clever and echoed the sentence five times.
Riva rubbed the underside of her chair. This was crazy.
A few more minutes of the vitally important meeting passed. Riva was afraid to look at the time. Finally, when Shuli paused to let something she’d said sink in, Riva stood up. “I’m so sorry,” she mumbled. “I have to go now.”
“Ah, but this is really important,” Mr. Gabioff said. “What’s the rush?”
Her face flushed. “Uh… my kids…”
“Can’t you make some arrangements? Just for today. I need everyone here, we’re all going to have to be on the same page if we want the new system to work.”
Seriously! She had set work hours, perfectly timed around the bus schedule. She couldn’t just stay late because of a system that was never going to take
off.
But this was Mr. Gabioff, and if he asked you to stay late, you stayed.
“Let me try to make arrangements,” Riva heard herself say.
She stepped out of his office and took out her phone. Arrangements, really. Yaakov was out of the equation — this was the day of his big school interview. She would call her mother, but her mother was leaving to Lakewood soon for a wedding. That left Lani.
Her fingers were a little sweaty as she dialed her sister. They did such stuff for each other all the time, but for some reason, it felt a little tone deaf to ask for this favor today.
“Uh…” she said when Lani answered. “Would you be able to do me a huge favor?”
“Hmm?”
“It’s Tzippy. I won’t be home on time for her bus. Can I have her dropped off at your house and I’ll pick her up later?”
“At my basement,” Lani replied crisply. “Yes, no problem.”
Ugh.
Ugh.
She hung up and called the bus teacher to beg her to please make this last-minute bus change, even though it was against school policy. Then she returned to the meeting, which lasted another 25 torturous minutes.
By the time Riva got home, after picking up Eli and Tzippy, Fraidy was already home from school.
“How was your day?” Riva asked her daughter tiredly.
“It was…” Fraidy started. She looked like she was about to say something, but then she turned her head away and muttered, “Whatever.”
So Riva wasn’t the only tired one. Looked like Fraidy had also had a long day. Well, she wouldn’t allow herself to feel guilty that supper wasn’t ready on time. None of this was her fault.
And it wasn’t Yaakov’s fault either. The reason he wasn’t available to help was because he was taking steps to rescue her from Mr. Gabioff and Shuli Nieder and all their systemized systems.
There was nobody to blame. Which made her fatigue that much more intense.

MAKING SENSE OF THE MARKETS II
REWARDS FOR YOUR RISK
DVORA FREIMARKWelcome back to our series on making sense of the markets! Last week, we discussed stocks, bonds, markets and inflation – and even the law of supply and demand.
Now let’s talk about your favorite way to spend money. Some people like to shop, some like to eat out, some enjoy staying home, and others are just trying to keep their heads above water. Hopefully, you have at least a little more money coming in every month than the amount you spend. What do you do with that “extra” money? Ideally, you’re putting some of it away in savings — maybe for that new couch, your son’s bar mitzvah, for a rainy day, or for the weddings you’re hoping to make, b’shaah tovah
Where do you put it? Not all investments are created equal. Why do some investments give you a larger payout than others?
This brings us to the economic theory called the risk-reward ratio.
Imagine you’re standing in your friend’s living room and someone offers you $100 to get to the window on the other side — but you can step only on the cracks between the tiles. You’ll probably get across the room safely, right? But if you’re looking at a tightrope that’s twenty stories up, you might feel differently about walking the same distance. What’s the difference? Obviously, if you take a wrong step in the
living room, you forfeit the $100. Big deal. It’s worth trying for $100, right?
But if someone has a misstep 20 flights up, the results would be very not good. The risk is certainly not worth $100.
And so, the risk-reward ratio measures the amount of risk versus the potential reward.
How safe is it to buy a specific stock? And what do you stand to gain from it? In a perfect economy — the kind that exists only in the imagination — the higher the risk entailed in your investment, the greater the reward.
So let’s say you’ve saved up $1,000 that you don’t need right now, but you’d like to have it available in two years to put toward your kid’s braces. And let’s say you’re considering three very different possibilities to park your hardearned funds.
1. You can put your money into a savings account in the bank, which pays less than 1% interest.
2. You’re considering purchasing government bonds, which pay 4% interest.
3. You could lend your money to Sebastian the Snake, who claims his new invention is the greatest thing since sliced bread — and he says he’ll pay 9% interest.
Why is Sebastian willing to pay so much more than your other options? It’s because of the riskreward ratio. An investment that carries a greater risk must offer a greater reward in order to attract investors.
Because U.S. government bonds are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, the risk of default is very low, and these bonds are considered a safe investment. While your profits will be lower, this low-risk investment can entice most of us to hand over our money more easily than Sebastian the Snake can.
One of my first clients wanted to buy some stock in a company called Chopp Computer. “My grandson told me it’s a great investment!” Bubby B. enthused.
“Your grandson is a young man with a respectable amount of disposable income and a few decades before he’ll need that cash for his retirement,” I explained. “Even if he loses his entire investment, it’s less than 1% of his portfolio, and he won’t feel the pinch. You, on the other hand, are at a different stage in life. Your investments should generate a comfortable passive income — and they should be in bluechip holdings.”
TELL ME QUICK:
NAME: Dvora Freimark
BUSINESS NAME: Swim with Sharks
I LOVE MY JOB BECAUSE: It’s always different and exciting. And I love watching my clients grow and succeed.
TOUGHEST THING IS: Remembering that it’s all just hishtadlus.
Chopp Computer climbed and climbed, to about $125 per share[ZR1]. And then it fell and fell, all the way down to $5. Luckily, Bubby B. had followed my advice and purchased a selection of dividend-paying stocks, along with some funds and municipal bonds. She enjoyed her final years, living off the income from her investments and spoiling her grandchildren.
How can you make money investing? Let’s look at that next week, be”H !

STUTTERING DEMYSTIFIED
In this short article, I will discuss the following questions:
1) What is stuttering?
2) Why do people stutter?
3) What to expect from, and what is the goal, in stuttering treatment?
What is stuttering?
Stuttering is a speech disorder that affects communication. On the outside, to the typical listener, speech fluency seems to be the most affected by stuttering. When we talk about fluency, we mean the rate, rhythm, continuity and smoothness of speech. On the inside, however, to the speaker who stutterers, the fear of tensing/blocking is usually mostly on their mind. Guilt and shame often have a tremendous impact on stuttering, and as we will see, they are one of the perpetuating factors in stuttering.
When stuttering, the speech muscles tense up, and produce involuntary extra movements that disrupt the rhythm of speech by producing repetitions (mo… mo… mo… mother), prolongations (mmmmother - wwwwhen) and blocks (my name is ……... Ari). A person who stutters (PWS) can experience effortful speech, where it seems like he is trying too hard to speak. The key word in this discussion is ‘involuntary’. It is important to realize that these disruptions are unwanted by the person who stutters (PWS), and he usually feels helpless and unable to control them.
Why do people stutter?
Many theories have been said about why people stutter. Mainstream research now indicates that genetics play a major role. Most PWS have a family history of stuttering. However, not all people, that have a genetic predisposition, stutter. A significant event usually occurs that brings out the actual manifestation of the disfluency. Usually, the rapid growth of speech and language, which occurs at age 2-3 is enough to bring out the stutter. For some, family stresses such as moving, or starting a new school is a trigger that starts the stuttering. For others, it never manifests itself into actual disfluency.
When thinking about the factors that contribute to stuttering, it is helpful to think about these three Ps. Predispo-
sition, Precipitation and Perpetuation. Predisposing factors, like genetics, make it more likely that someone will eventually stutter. However, an event usually occurs to bring out this potential. Precipitating factors such as rapid growth in speech and language skills, social adjustments and other environmental factors are strong enough to bring out the potential of stuttering. And finally, the reason why people continue to stutter is because of the Perpetuating factors such as habit strength, environmental factors and perhaps most importantly, feelings of guilt and shame.
What to expect from, and what is the goal, in stuttering treatment?
The goals in stuttering treatment vary according to each person’s needs. There are usually two main goals in stuttering therapy. Learning how to talk easier and changing one’s negative perception of speech and themselves.
Learning how to talk easier is achieved by learning speech tools. These tools help the speaker produce speech in a different way, such as minimizing the tension in the speech system, beginning a sentence with more air, and stuttering in an easier and lighter way.
People also learn how to develop healthier attitudes and feelings about talking and about themselves in general. This is done by learning how to respond to situations with less anxiety and with more confidence. Not everyone, however, needs to change how they feel about talking. Many kids and teens are confident and are willing to talk to others. For many others, however, talking brings up feelings of anxiety and fear, even guilt and shame. Overcoming these negative attitudes and feelings is just as important as learning to talk more easily.

EXPLORING THE ERAS OF VARIOUS MONARCHS AND THEIR RELATION TO THE JEWS UNDER THEIR REIGN
T. GESTETNER
As our countdown to Shavuos winds to a close, we touch on the final of the seven sefiros: malchus Malchus is the noble fusion of humility and exaltedness, of power and compassion. It is the epitome and essence of avodas Hashem.
A human king provides a living example of the total commitment and subservience Klal Yisroel must have to the King of Kings. It is a microcosm analogous to malchus Shamayim. Through royalty we learn what absolute nullification to ratzon Hashem means and what true leadership is all about.
Dovid Hamelech, the quintessential Jewish king, was born and niftar on Shavuos, the day we culminate Sefiras Ha’omer.
Dovid embodied the middah of malchus, simultaneously displaying indisputable supremacy and humble self-effacement. He recognized his noble status as king while maintaining his submissive status as servant of Hashem. He encompassed the unique blend of leadership demanded of Jewish kingship, and thus fathered the royal lineage of Malchus Beis Dovid.
Shavuos is the birthday of our royalty. It is a day when we can renew our connection as servants of the Melech Malchei Hamelachim.
Yet, with absolute monarchy fading into history, have we lost the ability to understand the true definition of kingship? In a world of democracy and equal rights, it’s difficult to picture the affluence, influence and awe of the crown. At the twitch of a finger, absolute monarchs could have subjects executed; at the whim of a scepter, they could fill their coffers. At their royal residences, golden thrones, silver platters and lavishness fit for a king abounded.
Let’s take a peek into the lives of several icons of royalty.

Step into the Palace of Versailles, and you’ve stepped into the pinnacle of royalty. Grandeur. Awe. Splendor. Meet malchus in all its glory.
Commissioned by Louis XIV of France, the palace is stamped with the signature “Louis XIV style,” or French Classicism. The walls of the palace are marble, inlaid with precious stones, bronze, mirrors and gold, and ornate columns and carved niches add a majestic effect. Decorative elements celebrate the king’s cultural and military achievements — all in the name of glorifying the monarchy.
The overstated standard was no accident.
King Louis XIV was obsessed with self-glorification. His fascination with art and architecture mirrored his inflated view of himself. He flaunted royal regalia to the extreme, using opulent materials and expert artisans to develop the décor style that until today remains associated with his name.
Not-Quite-Humble Beginnings
Louis XIV’s obsession with himself may have been rooted in his childhood. With the death of his father, Louis XIII, Louis XIV was named King of France when he was all of four years old. His mother, Anne of Austria, devoted her days to her beloved son, showering him with lavish affection at a level uncommon in the day. She instilled in Louis a strong belief in the absolute, divine power of his monarchy.
Perhaps his egoism could be traced back even earlier, to his very birth. Born 23 years after his parents’ marriage, Louis was a miracle child. The king and queen named their firstborn prince Louis Dieudonne — Louis the G-d-given. As heir apparent, his birth was true cause for celebration.
Little Louis grew up enveloped in affluence, yet exposed to civil crises. He was given everything he could dream of and was cared for devotedly by imperial governesses. The child-king also had private tutors who coached him in all matters he would need to contend with one day.
All the while, his mother, Anne, was the sole regent who was actively involved in state affairs. But people were unhappy under her rule. She extended the royal authority as a precursor to the control she wanted her son to wield and levied high taxes on the populace.
One evening, when Louis XIV was twelve, a mob of Frenchmen stormed the palace, demanding to see their king. Louis was in his bedchamber and pretended to be asleep as the mob neared his room. After taking a look, they were appeased. Still, the incident made it clear that the royal family was in danger. Anne and Louis fled Paris.
Such was the insecurity in the tense political climate of the young king’s childhood.
When Louis turned thirteen, he was deemed ready to rule. He donned the crown in all sincerity, taking personal control over the entire country, without a chief minister — a decision that shocked his subjects.
Louis XIV was firm and haughty, inspiring indisputable awe. His every move was characterized by his integral goal of gratifying and flattering himself. He was quoted as saying, “I am the state,” and his actions reflected that stance.
With his natural flair for art, he had his eye out for talent. Under his rule, French literature flourished, music and the theater culture grew and the art of symmetrical gardening advanced significantly.
The king also propagandized royalty through artistic expressions of himself. He commissioned more than 300 portraits of himself, many of which hardly resembled his features and instead showed off a haughty expression and elegant stance. In the background, some pictures displayed extravagant draperies or his royal throne, while others emphasized his rich ceremonial fleur-delis robes. He also had master sculptors create statues in his likeness.
Even his foreign policy, which favored war, was in the name of his personal interests. Louis XIV viewed war as the ideal way
to enhance his grandeur. Even during times of peace, he was always focusing on the next war.
In 1709, the king pressured his noblemen to donate the silver plates they dined on to help fund his wars — all while he sat on gold and marble, lavishly enjoying himself.
With a reign of 72 years and 110 days, Louis XIV was the longestruling French sovereign.
The Jews
The late fifteenth century saw Jews expelled from France. By the time Louis XIV was seated on the throne, a wave of Jews had returned. Alsace and Lorraine were among the first heavily populated settlements.
Louis XIV briefly considered following the prevalent approach, which forbade Christians from conversing with Jews and imposed the death penalty for sheltering Jews. Then Louis decided to exploit his Jewish subjects rather than banish them.
In September 1675 Louis XIV granted special protection to Jews. Later, in 1683, the king expelled the Jews of his newly acquired colony of Martinique.
The era of Louis XIV was punctuated by wavering religious freedom and rights, and marked by a strong sense of regal and awe-inspiring malchus
The King’s bedchamberNapoleon Bonaparte’s story is a rags-to-riches legend. It is the story of a boy scorned by his peers who then went on to climb the ranks to the highest echelons of French royalty.
Although he was born to Italian nobility, as an immigrant to mainland France from the island of Corsica, Napoleon endured a challenging youth. He spoke a slow, accented French, was short for his age, and his quirky mannerisms gave his classmates all the more reason to bully him. He was a victim, yet he stood strong.
While still in his youth, Napoleon began to develop and display signs of leadership. In one instance, during a snowball fight at school, he managed to get the junior students on his team to prevail over older students in the game.
Napoleon credited much of his backbone to his firm and disciplined mother. She influenced him to develop tough resilience, and he soon mirrored her values. He once com-
mented, “The future destiny of the child is always the work of the mother.”
The Leadership of Napoleon
After joining the military, it became apparent that Napoleon was a genius at strategy. Like a chess master, he was able to envision moves that were still several steps away and issue commands accordingly. He climbed in rank, time and again.
Napoleon’s competence was matched by his charismatic personality. He was domineering and hypnotic, deftly getting leaders to submit to his will. He commanded respect and dread simultaneously, leading those under his domination to do exactly as he ordered. Everyone knew that when things did not work out as he intended, Napoleon would flex his furious temper.
Napoleon did not lose well. He exercised unsurpassed willpower and was determined to win everything he attempted. As Napoleon scored one military success after the other, conquering territory and winning battles with ease, his victories went to his head. He grew surer of himself, his grandiosity and of his invincibility.
From his position as a French military commander, Napoleon went on to become a political leader. He was then elected as emperor of France in 1804. On coronation day, Napoleon arrived with a golden laurel wreath on his head, and a replica of Charlemagne’s crown was raised above his head as an honorary gesture.
As emperor, Napoleon generally wore a regal green colonel uniform with a bicorne hat. His French-style knickers were cut between his ankle and knee to meet his long white socks, and he adorned his getup with his Legion d’Honneur star, medal and ribbon as well as his Order of the Iron Crown decorations.
Napoleon was short, measuring only five feet and two inches tall. He used to surround himself with tall bodyguards, earning himself the nickname La Petit Caporal. People who met him often marveled at his short stature, which did not seem to match his grand accomplishments.
It was, perhaps, his drive to prove himself that pushed him to such heights. Psychologists later came up with the
name “Napoleon Complex” to describe an inferiority complex in which short people resort to overly aggressive behavior to compensate for their size.
The Jews
To the world, Napoleon was a highly-celebrated yet controversial figure. To the Jews, he was a two-faced leader.
He passed many laws in favor of Klal Yisroel, yet the motive behind his approach is still hotly debated. He was known to make public statements both in support and in opposition of the Jewish people.
When Napoleon arrived in Italy, he was shocked to discover ghettos segregating the Jews, who were forced to wear yellow armbands and bonnets. They were allowed to move about freely by day, but had strict curfews at night. As Napoleon occupied Ancona in central Italy, he put an immediate stop to the discrimination. He dissolved the ghetto and emancipated the Jews, who were now free to practice religion openly. The ghettos of Rome,
Venice, Verona and Padua were liberated as well.
When Napoleon traveled to Eretz Yisroel, with plans to conquer the land that was then under Ottoman rule, he took a unique approach. He was certain that he would win, as he always did, and prepared his policy in advance in a written “proclamation.” In it, he invited Jews across the Mideast and North Africa to create a Jewish State. He wrote that Jews are the rightful heirs of Palestine and deserved a political existence as a nation among the nations. Eventually, Napoleon’s conquest failed, and the proclamation was never put to use.
Back in France, Napoleon lightened the conditions of the Jews, which earned him their respect and admiration. He designated Judaism as one of the official religions of France, essentially pausing much of the persecution Jews had experienced until then.
True, his actions made Jewish life easier in many ways, but his statements did not all align. Napoleon was quoted as calling Klal Yisroel “a nasty people, cowardly and cruel” and a “most contemptible of people.” Was he simply looking to exploit the Jews to his advantage?
Master historian Rabbi Berel Wein maintains that Napoleon’s real goal was to watch the Yidden assimilate. “Napoleon’s outward tolerance and fairness toward Jews was actually based upon his grand plan to have them disappear entirely by means of total assimilation, intermarriage and conversion,” he explained.
This theory is supported by a letter Napoleon wrote to his interior minister, Champagny, in 1806: “[It is necessary to] reduce, if not destroy, the tendency of Jewish people to practice a very great number of activities that are harmful to civilization. … It is necessary to change the Jews. ... Once part of their youth will take its place in our armies, they will cease to have Jewish interests
and sentiments; their interests and sentiments will be French.”
Then, in 1808, Napoleon made his sinister motives publicly known with his infamous decree. He restricted Jews from dealing in money-lending, declared all debts with Jews nullified or reduced, and limited Jews from migrating. He also required Jews to adopt legal names and serve in the French military. The goal behind these laws was clear: Napoleon wanted to blur the boundaries and integrate Jewish customs into French culture. The restrictions were lifted in 1811.
Was Napoleon a friend or foe? An examination of the true motives behind even his positive policy toward the Jews sheds some light on the matter.

Emperor of Austria, King of Hungary
Magnificent gardens surround the opulent summer residence of the Habsburg dynasty. Impressive furnishings and elaborate ornaments fuse artwork and architecture in a regal display, and the palace’s 1,441 rooms, which boast unique layouts and design, make it one of Europe’s most beautiful Baroque edifices. Welcome to Schonbrunn Palace, birthplace of Kaiser Franz Joseph of Austria.
On August 18, 1830, Archduke Franz Karl and Princess Sophie of Bavaria celebrated the birth of their eldest son, Franz Joseph.
In the lap of luxury and the heart of royalty, young Franz Joseph grew up close to his revered grandfather, Francis II, who died when he was nearly five years old. His uncle, Emperor Ferdinand I, was childless, and it was clear that Franz Joseph was next in line to the Austrian throne.

The Rule of Franz Joseph
Indeed, when revolutions and winds of democracy prompted Ferdinand I to abdicate, Franz Joseph donned the crown when he was just eighteen years old. The people were enthralled by the youthful, radiant monarch, who proved himself to be a kind and compassionate ruler.
Emperor Franz Joseph made Schonbrunn Palace, the cherished summer residence of his youth, into his primary home. He lived there for the duration of his 68-year reign — the third-longest rule of all sovereigns in Europe — until his death in November 1916.
It didn’t take long for Franz Joseph to snag the title of “most beloved emperor of the Habsburg monarchy.” Between his integrity, decency and charismatic personality, and the above-average standard of living that his subjects enjoyed under his rule, he earned the affection and admiration of the masses.
His leadership went through rough times, too, with various hitches in foreign policy and failed wars. But when Franz Joseph piloted the merger of Austro-Hungary, in which he became the ruler over the dual monarchy of both Austria and Hungary as the two countries came to coexist as equal partners, he demonstrated a unique ability to compromise. This further endeared him to his subjects.
The Jews
The Yidden, too, enjoyed a period of prosperity under the beloved monarch. Franz Joseph offered equal rights to various ethnic groups, including the Jews. He was well-liked, and as a symbol of their appreciation for his tolerance and benevolence, several tefillos and songs were composed in his honor. He made life easier for Yidden, and they davened for his continued success.
When Franz Joseph visited Yerushalayim in 1869, he was greeted enthusiastically and with much admiration. While visiting, he established a fund that was to finance the estab-
lishment of new institutions.
His tolerance and equality may have had less than positive effects on Austrian Jewish society as well, paving the way for assimilation. Under Franz Joseph’s rule, several Yidden were elected to the Austrian Reichsrat. There were plenty of Jewish bankers, doctors, lawyers and entrepreneurs, and now Jewish poets, journalists and artists contributed to liberal Austrian culture. Vienna, the center of education, became a center of Zionism, too.
During Franz Joseph’s tenure, all factions of Klal Yisroel — from the Torah-true to the assimilated — were recognized as loyal to the empire and the emperor. The fondness was twosided, with the Yidden and the malchus coexisting peacefully.
A famous incident took place when Emperor Franz Joseph visited the large Jewish community of Krakow. As a tribute to their benevolent ruler and to maintain signs of peace, a large portrait of the Kaiser always hung in the hallway leading to the shul. The morning of the visit, in an act of antiSemitism, the picture disappeared. The perpetrators of the theft then went to Franz Joseph, claiming that the Jews did not value him. “They removed your portrait in order to show their disrespect and rebelliousness against your leadership,” they lied.
Indeed, when Franz Joseph entered the shul, he stopped in the hall. “Is it true that my picture usually hangs on this wall?” he asked the rav, Rav Shimon Sofer, zt”l
Rav Shimon, who became aware of the sign’s disappear-
ance only at that moment, did not miss a beat.
“You Royal Majesty,” he explained. “The portrait was removed in your honor.” He went on to draw a parallel to the mitzvah of tefillin. “We Jews wear tefillin as a symbol of our connection with our Creator. Every week, on our holy Shabbos, we do not don tefillin. This is because on Shabbos, we are extra close with our Creator, and thus do not require a mere symbol indicating our connection. In the same way, today is a festive day for us. Today we are honored with the presence of your royal majesty itself! We do not need your picture in front of us now. To the contrary — if we were to have the portrait on the wall today, when we can see your Royal Highness with our own eyes, looking at the picture would be an affront to your honor!”
And the Jews of Krakow were absolved of any question of disloyalty.
Schönbrunn Palace in 2022eL iz a Be th i i
Queen of England
1926–2022
The image of old-fashioned royalty, the Queen of England presented a face of malchus to a world in which democracy and liberty had become the norm. Her lifestyle, activities and comportment provided great insight into the definition of royalty.
Against a backdrop of the imposing gates of Buckingham Palace, a brigade of crimson-uniformed royal guards with their iconic bearskin hats marched with impeccable precision. This ceremony marked the moment when the guards changed shifts. With nary a smile on their lips, they carried out their straight-backed, regal production with utter exactitude and earnestness. After all, they were the staff of the queen.
The Changing of the Guards was but an introduction to the majestic nobility taking place behind the palace gates.
Inside Buckingham Palace lived Elizabeth II, the Queen
of England, who passed away this past September. A figure of national pride, Queen Elizabeth embodied stability, nobility and the continuity of her monarchical pedigree. Her seven-decades rule was marked by commitment, sacrifice and service to her country as it experienced periods alternating between turbulent and calm. Her inspiring leadership made her a respected personality around the world, and her attire, diet and behavior were followed eagerly by crowds of admirers.
The Queen enjoyed several privileges reserved specifically for the monarch. For one, she never needed to own a passport, as every British passport is issued in the name of Her Majesty. She was allowed to drive without a license and had sovereign immunity.
The Queen, following the tradition of the British royal family to circumcise their sons in typical Jewish fashion, arranged for the circumcision of her son, present-day King Charles III, born in 1948. She summoned expert mohel Rabbi Jacob Snowman to perform the circumcision..
Royal banquets were another example of the Queen’s meticulousness.
The tables were set with the same precision as the Changing of the Guards. Each napkin was perfectly folded and evenly spaced at seventeen inches apart. A tape measure was used to arrange the dishes, cutlery and glassware in perfect symmetry. Despite her household staff of 1,200 servants, the Queen was personally involved in selecting the menu and deciding on a seating plan. Before a banquet would begin, she would walk around the room, inspecting the tables. Truly a table “fit for a queen,” it was the picture of British perfection and pride.
The Queen did not wear a crown every day; the symbolic headdress was donned in honor of special occasions, such as the annual state opening of Parliament. The Imperial State Crown, which the Queen wore to that occasion every year, is ornamented with 2,868 diamonds, 17 sapphires, 11 emeralds, 269 pearls and 4 rubies. It weighs 2.3 pounds. As one historian wrote, “It can be quite hard to look at sometimes because of the sheer light that comes off [its jewels]. It’s literally dazzling… visually overpowering.”
The Queen herself joked about its staggering weight on her head. “You can’t look down to read the speech… be-
cause if you did, your neck would break,” she said, referring to her speech on the key legislative plans for the upcoming year, which she would read while sitting on a golden throne.
The Queen’s rather modest wardrobe contained mainly dresses in bright colors. Her favorite color was blue, a color long associated with monarchy, military and art. She refrained from wearing beige, because as she was wont to say, “I can never wear beige because nobody will know who I am.” She rarely wore black, as royal etiquette dating back to Queen Victoria reserves black clothing for periods of mourning.
Rarely was a dress worn more than once to important events, and most of her wardrobe was worn only two or three times.
Queen Elizabeth also wore royal handbags on her arm to match her attire — not only as a fashion statement, but also as a tool to secretly signal to her aides when she wished a conversation to end.
With Legendary Precision
The Queen took her responsibilities very seriously, and stuck to a regimented daily schedule. She went to sleep rather early — the very same time each night — so that she would be well-rested for her morning appointments.
At 7:30 a.m., she would awaken, and at precisely 8 a.m., her personal assistants would help her prepare for her
day. Meanwhile, she would sip some Earl Grey tea with milk.
At 8:30, she would head to the dining room for an elegant yet simple breakfast, after which she would relax on her porch for a couple of minutes to the sound of Royal Court bagpipe music.
Her office work began at 9:30, with the press secretary filling her in on global events. After some two hours of paperwork, the Queen held meetings with dignitaries in intervals of ten minutes each.
Lunch was served at 1:30 p.m., and she ate either alone or with her children. Her royal chef would show her the weekly menu, written in French.
The Queen would then stroll the palace gardens and relax
with some reading material before sitting down to afternoon tea with sandwiches or scones. After resuming her office work, the Queen would head off to her private quarters to prepare for dinner, which she was served on a silver platter — literally.
Lights were out at eleven, so the Queen could get her eight and a half hours of sleep.
The Jews
British Jews enjoyed a peaceful, amicable relationship with the Queen. In many communities, a special tefillah for her welfare was recited.
The Queen’s mother-inlaw, Princess Alice, risked her life to hide Jews in Greece
during the Holocaust. Queen Elizabeth herself was quite emotional when she hosted a group of survivors on the 60th anniversary of Auschwitz’s liberation. Disregarding her typical adherence to punctuality, the Queen actually overstayed the time she had allotted for this event. She mingled with the survivors, giving each one her full attention. She later commented, “It was an act of kindness that almost had me in tears. One after another, the survivors came to me in a kind of trance, saying, ‘Sixty years ago, I did not know if I would be alive tomorrow, and here I am today talking to the Queen.’ It brought a kind of blessed closure into deeply lacerated lives.”

Maintaining Positivity In Your Home
The goral haGra is mostly known to have been performed by tzaddikim who had the zechusim necessary to merit Divine assistance. But in the storm of serious indecision, sometimes pashute Yidden have also performed the goral — with awe-inspiring results.
FIVE ACCOUNTS OF PEOPLE WHO TURNED THE PAGE
TWO ON THE TABLE
AS TOLD TO HADASSAH STEINMAN
The Gemara says that matching couples together is as difficult as splitting the sea. But what happens when one finds themselves standing before two seas, without a clue as to which one to attempt to proceed through?
That’s what happened to us.
Our daughter had been in shidduchim for about a year when we started getting just the slightest bit worried. Never mind that she was only nineteen years young. Those were the days when it was less common for girls to find their zivug any more than a sneeze past high school or seminary, especially when it came to our chassidishe circles.
Soon a name that seemed interesting was redt. Naftali Gold* was purported to be a top boy with sterling middos who’d been raised in a wonderful home, and all the details seemed to match up. But even though we were ready to go to the next step, the Golds were still dragging their feet, and so it was that nothing came of the shidduch at the time.
A short while later, another potentially good shidduch was redt. Baruch Katz* also came from a wonderful home, and in his case, as well, we were hearing only good things about his learning and middos. We did some more homework, and before we knew it, we were at the turning point in the shidduch and had to decide whether or not to move forward.
And then… the Golds, of the first shidduch, said yes.
Now we found ourselves with two potentially good options on the metaphoric table, and we quickly went from worrying about having no options to agonizing over which of the two seemingly ideal choices to pursue. After much deliberation, confusion and many sleepless nights, my husband decided to throw the question to the Heavens and let a healthy
dose of siyata d’Shmaya decide for us: He would perform the goral haGra
He sat down with a Chumash, very aware of the immensity of what he was about to attempt. Following the precise steps of the goral, which involved seven steps of seven movements through the sefer, he arrived at one specific letter. Then he sought the next pasuk that began with that letter, and there was the answer, clear as day: “Naftali ayalah sheluchah hanosein imrei shafer ” (Bereishis 49:21).
And that was that. With the peace of mind borne of calm decision, and with the blessings of our Rebbe and the happy approval of both young people in question, the couple was soon engaged to be married. Mazel tov!
WE QUICKLY WENT FROM WORRYING ABOUT HAVING NO OPTIONS TO AGONIZING OVER WHICH OF THE TWO SEEMINGLY IDEAL CHOICES TO PURSUE

WHEN THERE’S NOTHING TO FEAR
HINDY KVIATIn the late 1930s, sixteen-year-old Dovid Kviat’s uncle recognized Dovid’s potential for greatness, and encouraged Dovid’s father to send him to learn in the famed Mir Yeshiva in Poland. Dovid lived up to expectations, immersing himself in the timeless pages of Torah. But then came the devastating interruption: The upheaval of war began to shake the world. With Germany invading Poland, blackness of fear and turmoil choked the Yidden. Then Hashem opened a crack, allowing in the light of hope. Germany and Russia signed a pact under which Vilna, Lithuania, was declared autonomous and not under German rule. Vilna became a miraculous oasis in the harrowing desert.
The Mirrer roshei yeshiva, under the guidance of Rav Chaim Ozer Grodzinski, decided that the entire yeshiva would go to Vilna and reestablish itself there (later moving on to Shanghai for the duration of the war).
The young bochur, later to be renowned as Rav Dovid Kviat, zt”l, mechaber of sifrei Sukkos Dovid, Rav of Agudath Israel 18th Avenue, and one of the roshei yeshiva of Mir, understood that life would never be the same again. He had a strong desire to gezegen zich from his father in Bialystok (his mother was niftar when he was three). But should he risk traveling 200 miles from Vilna to Bialystok, which was under Soviet rule, when the danger of war was spreading its tentacles? The risk was compounded by the fact that he didn’t own a passport or identity papers.
Dovid could not make the decision; instead, he decided to perform the goral haGra
The pasuk he arrived at read, Lo sira mipachad leilah — Do not be afraid of the fear of night (Tehillim 91:5). With this clear answer, he set out on the perilous journey. After an emotional visit with his father, he returned to Vilna.
In the station, while waiting for the connecting train, Dovid noticed Soviet border guards roving the place. On the alert, Dovid kept moving from place to place, trying to steer clear of them. However, exhausted from his travels, he dozed off while sitting on a bench.
The guards were on the lookout for sleeping passengers, deducing that they were escapees who were fatigued from being on the run, and Dovid was hauled off to the police station. On the way, he undertook a kabbalah to dedicate himself to learning with in-
tense hasmadah for three years.
When the commandant demanded to see his papers — which Dovid did not have — Dovid responded with a puzzled look on his face, telling them in Yiddish that he doesn’t understand Russian. They switched to Polish, and Dovid pretended to still be stumped. Finally, the soldiers brought a Yid who interpreted their demand.
“Papers?! Ohhh!” In the most natural, cooperative way, he flung open his jacket and pointed to some papers in his pocket. “Here they are. Take them!”
His confidence was so convincing, the commandant didn’t even bother to look at the papers. He just waved Dovid through.
Even more significantly, in Dovid’s pocket were American dollars from his father. Had the guards searched him, they would have found the money, which to the Soviets was serious contraband.
Although he had escaped the NKVD’s clutches, Dovid was worried they might yet haul him back for questioning. He ran to hide in the local shul where he reached out to askanim. The Vaad Hatzolah of the town arranged a car ride for him back to Vilna, and Dovid lay hidden on the floor of the car for the entirety of the five-hour journey. From there he traveled to Shanghai with the Mirrer Yeshiva and lived to tell the tale.
Lo sira mipachad leilah! For the rest of his life, Rav Dovid Kviat would repeat the story of the unique “travel insurance” that protected him in the most miraculous way.
ON THE ALERT, DOVID KEPT MOVING FROM PLACE TO PLACE, TRYING TO STEER CLEAR OF THE SOVIET BORDER GUARDS
A DIVINE WINK
MALKA SHAINIf the worst of my parenting woes, the kind that made me doubt my very ability to do this motherhood thing, could be put into one word, it would be bedtime. Those storybook moments of bonding, reciting krias shema over freshly shampooed locks; the magic of nighttime lullabies, snuggles and bedtime stories… It was all a pipe dream in the face of the raucous hooting, over-the-top antics and fierce resistance I experienced night after weary night.
Bedtime was the cue for children of various ages to rev up their energy and raise the volume, and chaos would ensue. I’d put the youngest to bed, and the others would come to wake her, getting creative and aggressive in their attempts to abolish bedtime. Shoes would fly, music would blast, fights would erupt… anything to trigger intense reactions out of Mother. And it worked. My kids knew just which buttons to press. And I, helpless and exhausted and so desperate for the day to end, was not on my best mommy behavior, to put it very mildly.
On one such night, while holding a baby in one arm and trying helplessly to direct his siblings to bed, I felt I couldn’t do this any longer. Forget charts, forget bribes, forget threats. Forget parenting methods or rules or firmness or consistency or routines. Bedtime was too dysregulating to my emotional state to even try to work through this in a logical way or make systemic changes.
I resolutely went into the kitchen and took the white bottle off the shelf — a supplement I had not brought into my house until the recent desperation had set in — and eyed it squarely. A long time ago, when the kids who were now making the very walls reverberate were little, I promised myself that I would never use melatonin. Ever. I had so many reasons: It wasn’t FDA-regulated. It was a hormone. Who knew what could go wrong? It could affect their health. It could ruin their entire future! I wouldn’t do that to my children, no matter what. I would never poison them with anything that could put their future at stake.
Until today.
Now, as I stared at the bottle, daring myself to open the seal, the advice of the professionals I’d consulted suddenly faded as fear overtook me. Although given the circumstances and the carnival bedtime had become, melatonin was probably the healthiest option available, I just couldn’t bring myself to cross the divide.
I stood, frustration roiling, and thought hard. I was so scared. Scared for my children’s well-being, for their future. Scared to renege my sacred vow. And scared that something would happen if I didn’t figure out a way to make bedtime different.
Hashem! I thought. What’s the right thing? I’m so torn. And so weak. And so discouraged.
What should I do?
I couldn’t consult with a navi. I didn’t have the Urim V’tumim. But I had a Chumash. And while I knew I didn’t know how to do the goral properly, I was feeling so lost, and I was desperate for support. I took a Chumash Bereishis out of the seforim closet, and as one particularly loud shriek shook the house, I self-consciously opened it to a random page, surprised to see my fingers were trembling.
I looked at the words of the pasuk I had turned to and soon a few tears blurred the page before me. “Al tira, ki itcha anochi u’veirachticha v’hirbeisi es zarecha…” was what I read. Do not fear, because I am with you and I will multiply your children.
I didn’t need anything else. It felt like a Divine wink, a little whisper from Hashem that it was okay. That I could do what I needed to do.
As I broke the seal of the melatonin bottle and offered a crumb to each of my children, some of my despair faded away. I knew that Hashem had faith that I could figure this out and that I was not alone.
NOW, AS I STARED AT THE BOTTLE, DARING MYSELF TO OPEN THE SEAL, THE ADVICE OF THE PROFESSIONALS I’D CONSULTED SUDDENLY FADED AS FEAR OVERTOOK ME
A LEVI’S HUNT FOR LAND
TZVI LEVINEWhen the hunt for a piece of property takes so long that every broker in the area knows you, you know you’re in trouble. But like it or not, this was our reality.
My wife and I were dreaming of a property in the Catskills. It would be large, would provide us with privacy, and with the supercharged technicolor of dreams, would have space for our children to sing at the top of their lungs without our neighbors hearing a thing.
The only problem was that not a single property we were being shown seemed to be the right one. One was too close to camps and bungalow colonies, another was too far. This one was too big, that one was too small. And after two and half years of chasing an elusive dream, and trekking up and down Sullivan County to look at one property after the other, my wife and I were getting supremely frustrated.
Finally, things began looking up. We were shown not one, but two properties with potential. While they were very different from each other, both had certain qualities we liked. One, which was an empty piece of land, was located near a Gerrer camp. We called this option the “Gerrer property.” The other property, which boasted a house and a pool, was another fair option.
Now one question remained: Which one should we buy? It is said that every piece of land is bashert for its owners in a manner similar to a zivug, but in this case, nothing pulled us one way or the other. How could we choose?
Then I had an idea. I had just read A Tzaddik in Our Time, which related the unbelievable tale of Rav Aryeh Levin, zt”l, using the goral haGra to identify the remains of twelve Israeli soldiers. Now, plagued with indecision — even if only over this comparatively insignificant purchase — I decided to give the goral a try.
As I sat down to perform the goral, something made me voice the stipulation that any reference to the Gerrer property in the manner of hinting that this was the one would have to contain the word “ger,” and not something similar to it. The root gimmel-reish is found in many places in the Torah, and I didn’t want to be left with any ambiguity.
With this thought in mind, I sat down with no small amount of anticipation and performed the goral. Remarkably, the following pasuk came up: “V’chi yavo halevi mei’achad she’arecha asher hu gar sham u’va b’chol avas nafsho el hamakom asher yivchar Hashem” (Devarim 18:6).
EVERY PIECE OF LAND IS BASHERT FOR ITS OWNERS IN A MANNER SIMILAR TO A ZIVUG, BUT IN THIS CASE, NOTHING PULLED US ONE WAY OR THE OTHER
This result was both extraordinary and enlightening on so many levels. For one, I am a levi. Second, I now understood why I had felt compelled to voice the stipulation about the precision of the word “ger.” Obviously, the “Gerrer property” was not for us, for the pasuk said “gar ” with a kamatz. Third, I now knew with certainty that neither of these properties were meant for us; the end of pasuk said “asher yivchar Hashem” in future tense. Clearly, Hashem had yet to show us the right piece of land — but now I was certain that it would show up soon.
To be honest, the result was a bit of a letdown. My wife and I had been fairly sure that we’d go from goral to contract, one way or the other. But we had to admit that there was no ambiguity here; the answer was clear. We resigned ourselves to the fact that the wait would take just a little bit longer.
Not more than two weeks later, a broker showed me some more properties, but none of them were of interest. Then he said, “I have one more property to show you, but it’s on a hill. Would that bother you?”
“Not at all,” I said. “Hills don’t bother me. Let’s go.”
He drove me to the property, and I walked around. After ten minutes, I returned to his car and said, “Yes, this is a property I’m ready to go ahead with.”
The broker was shocked. “I don’t understand. I’ve been taking you around for more than two years, and now, in ten minutes, you know with certainty that this is the one?”
“It fits the bill,” I said simply. “But I finally like a property, so why aren’t you happy about it?”
“Well,” he replied. “There’s just one little problem: It’s not for sale.”
Now it was my turn to be shocked. “Why are you showing it to me, then?”
The broker explained that he’d sold this property to the current owner fifteen years ago.
“I have a feeling he’d be willing to sell,” he said.
The very next day, we got the go-ahead from the owner, who was glad to sell the lot for the same price he’d originally paid for it (the market was doing poorly then). He also asked that we pay the brokerage fee to make sure he would recoup his losses. We agreed, signed on the dotted line, and before we knew it, the levi had found his home.

WE RESIGNED OURSELVES TO THE FACT THAT THE WAIT WOULD TAKE JUST A LITTLE BIT LONGER
LET THEM TRAVEL!
AS TOLD TO T. GESTETNERTwelfth grade was winding to a close, and there was lots of talk in the classroom about the upcoming year. Many of us were dreaming of teaching, but we all knew that only a select few would receive coveted positions in our school. I remember the special lesson my teacher devoted to the topic, guiding us on how to respond to our friends once we all found out who got which grade, if at all. For those of us with a competitive streak, it was an exciting time.
My model lesson had gone really well, so I wasn’t surprised when the principal quietly told me that I was on her teachers list. No one else knew yet.
That’s when my inner conflict kicked in.
On the one hand, I was exhilarated to have been chosen, and I looked forward to teaching in a familiar environment. But I also felt a bit uncomfortable.
I had two older sisters already teaching in the school, and I could just picture what my friends would say when they heard I got the job. They’d be rolling their eyes in that I-told-you-so way. Of course Dini was chosen! She’s in the right family! Deep down, I also had a fear of failure. What if I wasn’t successful? It would be so uncomfortable for me to be that teacher, who couldn’t control her class, in the face of my old principal and teachers.
Then another opportunity came my way. Earlier in the year, when some of my friends had applied to a school about a 40-minute drive away, I had joined them and delivered a model lesson, too. There weren’t too many local schools where we lived, and in case we wouldn’t be accepted in our own school, we could always fall back on a position there.
Now they offered me a great job. Perfect grade, perfect subjects, perfect pay. The only real drawback was the commute. Still, something about it appealed to me. I had received the offer on my own merit, and I relished the opportunity to start with a clean slate and prove myself.
My older sisters tried talking me out of it. Commuting would make this position very challenging in the long run. I would
have to find a local job when I got married and start all over again. And on and on.
My head throbbed. The principal of the out-of-town school needed an answer by the next morning, and I couldn’t make up my mind. Should I go for the prestigious job in a familiar environment, or leave my comfort zone and try something new and unknown?
I was at a loss.
My father saw my confusion and decided to do the goral haGra. He opened a Chumash, and it fell on the words, “And Hashem said to Moshe: Why do you cry to Me? Speak to Bnei Yisroel and let them travel” (Shemos 14:15).
There it was, black on white. I knew just which job to accept.
THE PRINCIPAL OF THE OUT-OF-TOWN SCHOOL NEEDED AN ANSWER BY THE NEXT MORNING, AND I COULDN’T MAKE UP MY MIND

He had been lucky once; would he strike gold again?
CHANA HINDY SCHECHTERWhen the Nazis stormed into his world, Ezriel Mozes was learning in Pressburg. One of the blessed few to receive a precious exit visa, he fled to Manchester Yeshiva, finding freedom under foreign gray skies. Yet throughout it all, worry seared his very flesh like knives. The image of his parents’ faces drifted across his Gemara, whispering of pain and longing. They were trapped in the licking flames; how he wished he could do something. Their goodbyes hounded him as he fought to sleep — bright blue eyes dimmed by sadness, strong shoulders against his own, the unspoken question: When will we see you again? Day after day, he poured his anguish into his learning and davening, the torches of belief that lit up his lonely life.
Rumors abounded, growing louder each day. Ghastly visions he could not even believe, of a fiery Gehinnom that was merciless in its hate. Familiar names of brethren who were dead, found in piles of corpses. Wideeyed men who had endured the notorious camps told of ironclad belief in Hashem, of sacrifices, of that spark of humanity in the most inhuman places.
The years passed painfully slowly. Trust and despondency swung like a pendulum inside him, up and down, rising and falling as the worry receded and flashed. Yet he refused to allow himself to fall into a pit of despair and hung onto a gossamer thread of hope for his father’s kiss once again. Netzach Yisrael lo yishaker!
Then a ray of sunshine lit up the drab English skies: The last embers of the war were dying out at last, and lists of were survivors, corroborated by the Red Cross, were made
available to the public. Ezriel ran, his feet slapping the pavement in anticipation. This was it. The moment of truth. He scanned the lists. Maybe, maybe Then his heart stopped, and lifted, almost bursting in disbelief.
Could it be true?
But his eyes had not deceived him. His parents’ names were there, standing neat and straight like soldiers on the battleground. Mordche Usher and Chaya Mozes.
His pulse thundered in his ears, his hands shook. Tatte! Mamme! Oh, how he wished he could fly! Wished he could be with them now, hold their hands and never let go. It took him just a moment to decide: He was going to bring them here, help them set up a new home in England.
A few birds chirped a merry tune nearby, the noise ringing in his ears as his mind filled with things to do. He was a busy man on his way.
* * * * *
Young waves leaped forth eagerly, foaming excitedly at the golden shore. As they gently stroked the coast, they set forth their glittery carpet. At last, Ezriel was journeying to his future. Looking out at the horizon, a ribbon of blue, he opened his heart and thanked his Maker for his parents, who were waiting for him on the other side of the sparkling ocean.
And then, wonders of wonders, he was there. Klausenberg. A kaleidoscope of emotion flooded Ezriel as familiar landmarks came into view — longing, hope, sadness. But the sparkle of his comfortable childhood was gone. The city was silent under an aged sky with no hint
HOURS PASSED AS HE LOOKED, SEARCHED. WHERE WERE THEY?
of sun. Skeletons crept around with ghostly eyes, missing teeth. Hours passed as he looked, searched.
Where were they?
A nasty rain began falling, turning the sky black.
Tatte?
The streets became a blur as Ezriel raced toward his former home. Home!
Mamme...
Finally he stood outside the house. Strange people stood around, staring — “Your parents?” A cruel laugh was the answer.
Adrenaline coursed through him, an edge of worry clawing its way in.
Tatte?
And then, in one moment, it was all over. His parents’ visas had survived, possessed by others, but his beloved mother and father were gone. Ezriel trembled violently; his eyes stung, his heart ached with raw pain. The crushing disappointment stole his breath. Hours bled away as he struggled to control his grief.
He would never see his parents again.
* * * * *
Dawn broke shyly, pink rays casting gentle shadows. The sun spread its blanket of warmth over the earth, lighting up the slumbering city with its hazy glow. But even the heat of the morning could not thaw the agony lodged in Ezriel’s chest. There was nothing here for him anymore. Memories assaulted him at every corner; stories, jokes and family lore were embedded in the very cobblestones.
Ezriel strode forward, an inner strength propelling him to the marketplace. The street
trembled with humanity as people moved, haggled, made purchases. Vendors stood at multicolored stalls, selling spices and scarves and sugar. Aromas and voices mingled, and a man missing a leg sat begging for alms.
EZRIEL CAUGHT SIGHT OF SMALL WRITING, PAGES DOG-EARED WITH THE TOIL OF LEARNING, THE JOY OF UNDERSTANDING.
Suddenly, a glinting piece of china caught Ezriel’s attention. A dark-haired man was wrapping it up in paper — but was it just paper?
Ezriel took another step forward. The paper looked awfully familiar.
Yellowed pages, sacred pages… his father’s pages. The name Mordche Usher Mozes was embossed proudly on the heavy brown volume the man was callously ripping apart. Inside the volume Ezriel caught sight of small writing, pages dog-eared with the toil of learning, the joy of understanding.
This was his father’s Shas, his father’s pride! An image arose in Ezriel’s mind: A lilting tune, Tatte sitting hunched over his precious volumes, dark night blending into sunrise…
Anger swelled in his chest. It whirled inside of him, red-hot with indignation.
The torn pages were hurriedly folded over pieces of china, the holiness wrapping the mundane — so wrong, so wicked. Yet Ezriel knew that shouting wouldn’t get him anywhere. The Jews were at the very bottom of the totem pole now, slaughtered, sold, subjugated. Fingering his pocket, he marched forward, a man on a mission.
“I would like to buy this, please.”
The vendor looked up. “Which item?”
“No, just the paper you’re wrapping the china in, and that book there,” he clarified, gesturing to the half-torn Shas.
“What!” muttered the man, exasperated. “You just never know with these Jews...”
Money changed hands, and soon Ezriel was holding the book in his arms. He sat on a nearby bench and flipped through the hallowed tome, his father’s love coursing through the pages.
He returned to England an old man, with hair white from shock.
The hope he had nurtured in his heart had been extinguished. Yet he had his father’s legacy forever.
The pages were warm against his chest.
“Me’aimasai korin es Shema b’arvis…”
He lifted his pure voice up to Heaven as he caressed the Shas that had finally come home.

The words kiddush Hashem and kedoshim always evoke in me a certain feeling of sadness. Throughout our long galus, Yidden were always being slaughtered solely because they were Jews. Throughout our history — whether during the Spanish Inquisition, the Crusades, the Napoleonic Wars, the eras of the Czars, both world wars, and even today, when there are so many terrorists around the world seeking to harm us, Rachmana litzlan, we can only beseech Hashem to take revenge on “dam avadecha hashafuch.”
The concept of kiddush Hashem also has another interpretation: the concept of sanctifying the Name of Hashem before His people. The following stories, all true, show another way we Yidden can be mekadesh Hashem: by showing the world that we live a more exalted life and strive for superior standards.
In the fall of 1969, New York City was in a frenzy. A relatively new baseball team, the New York Mets, suddenly had great prospects of winning the World Series championship and thus being crowned the best team in all of America. The deciding game was to take place on a weekday, and those who could take off from work to watch the game did so. Those who, “nebach,” had to go to work that day, satisfied themselves with listening to the game on the radio. Every workplace had the radio on its highest volume — even a local bank, where they usually played only quiet classical music.
That day, a yeshivah administrator was at the teller’s window in the bank when the news came over the radio. The Mets won! What glory for New York! The teller who was taking care of the administrator’s account was so excited and overwhelmed by the news that instead of handing him six ten-dollar bills, she accidentally gave him six hundred dollars.
The Yid handed back the extra money, and the woman began to cry. “Rabbi, you saved me. If they would have found this error, I would have had to pay the difference [a tidy sum in those days] from my own pocket, and I would have lost my job. I would never have been able to work in any bank again.”
One cold winter night, a fire broke out in an apartment building in upper Manhattan, in a crime-ridden neighborhood where people are afraid to walk even during the day. A few chassidish young men took the initiative and got a nearby public school to open its doors. They set up tables with hot food and various necessities such as toiletries, sweaters, blankets and baby essentials to help the displaced residents. One woman, displaying the diapers, formula and baby food that she was given, said to a newspaper reporter, “I’ve always heard that Jews are good people who like to do good. Now I see it for myself!”
Mr. Aaron Feuerstein of Boston was a shomer Torah u’mitzvos who owned a very large mill that manufactured fabric for popular sportswear. One year, a fire broke out right before the non-Jewish holiday season. Insurance covered the loss of his buildings and machines, but what Mr. Feuerstein did next came out of his own pocket: He immediately let all of his workers know that they would be fully paid even though they wouldn’t be working.
This incident was written up in the most prestigious business publications worldwide, and most writers also noted that this same Mr. Feurstein always paid his workers in full even when his factories were closed when Yom Tov fell on a weekday.
AYid by the name of Rabbi Noach Muroff once bought a used desk. Upon arriving home, he realized that the desk was a fraction of an inch too large to fit through the door. When he and his wife dismantled the desk, they found a plastic shopping bag behind the drawers. Inside was $98,000 dollars in cash. He immediately called the original owner, who had hidden the money and then forgotten where she’d put it.
This was the end of the story, until Rabbi Shmuel Kamenetsky encouraged Rabbi Muroff to publicize it. From all over the world, this young man was besieged by interviewers, with reporters asking him why he did it. His simple answer was, “I am a Jew, and I was always taught that one does not keep anything that does not belong to him.”
While on an outing on Governors Island with their children, a chassidish couple found a wallet with $1,400 cash in it. They immediately called their rav, who said that while they were not obligated to look for the non-Jewish owner and return the money, if a kiddush Hashem could come out of it, they should by all means try to find the owner. He then added that if they were already going the route of kiddush Hashem, they should try for the most publicity possible.
The family got in touch with a local frum politician who, along with a photographer, came to the meeting of finder and owner. The politician said a few words, the owner of the wallet expressed his thanks, and they were photographed together (the finders did not want their name or photo publicized). Several publications featured this as a newsworthy story. (As an aside, the wallet was returned in the late afternoon, when the streets were full of school-age children who received an impromptu lesson on how to make a kiddush Hashem.)
In truth, making a kiddush Hashem needn’t be complicated or very dramatic; it can even be done with something as simple as a glass of cold water. When your cleaning lady or delivery boy walks into your house on a sweltering day, just handing them a cool drink reflects the menschlichkeit with which we were brought up, and causes a real kiddush Hashem.
Ultimately, we have an obligation to teach our children how to act. The best way, of course, is by example. How we behave at a doctor’s office, on public transportation, at the supermarket or at the gas station is inevitably noticed by our children. Let us hope that Hashem’s Name should always be sanctified, in all its glory, through our actions and everyday encounters.

ROYAL BLOOD?
Fancy headgear of any kind is usually an indication that the wearer is of some significance. After all, in many civilizations around the world, crowns denote rulership. But while you might refer to those ornate accessories as crowns or tiaras without giving too much thought to which term is most accurate, there are specific differences between the two.
One way to distinguish a crown from a tiara is by looking at who’s wearing it. Traditionally, only sovereigns don crowns. Other members of the royal family and nobility occasionally wear coronets, which are essentially smaller, less elaborate crowns. To wear a tiara, your blood can be any color.
PROUD AS A PEACOCK
The materials used in the crowns you see are usually gold and precious stones. But for the Native Americans of the pre-Columbian era, feathers of rare and beautiful birds were used instead.
Either way, crowns were never taken lightly. Many early European crowns were designed as sections hinged together by long pins, which enabled them to be taken apart for transport or storage and, when worn, to adapt themselves to the shape and size of the wearer’s head.
PROTECT YOURSELF
At the earliest English coronation, dating back more than a thousand years, the king was crowned with a helmet instead of a crown. I totally get him.
DOLLAR, MAKE WAY FOR KRONA
The krona is a monetary unit of several European countries, including Sweden, Denmark and Norway. In Norway, the unit is known as the krone, and in the Czech Republic, it’s called the koruna
You don’t want to see this word, I know. But yes, the shape of the virus resembled a crown, hence its name. (See? I didn’t use the word again.)
CORONAFROM CROW HILL TO CROWN HEIGHTS
Ever wondered how Crown Heights got its name?
The neighborhood was originally known as Crow Hill, in reference to its hillside location and the crows that roosted at the area’s highest peak. With the extension of Crown Street in 1916, the title Crown Heights was adopted, effectively marking the end of Crow Hill.
One aspect of Crown Heights has remained, though: It is located on a series of hills, a fact not even the weight of all those brownstones has been able to change.
OF PEARLS AND CROWNS
Dental crowns date as far back as the year 200 CE, when the Etruscans used gold and other materials as crowns and bridges. For hundreds of years, the trend continued.
When did the idea of using ceramics in dentistry first appear?
In the late 1800s, the jacket crown, made of porcelain, was created by Charles H. Land. The design was later improved by E.B. Paulding and used from the early 1900s until the 1950s. The crown was effective, but didn’t last for too long. Micro cracking, which happened during the cooling phase of fabrication, caused issues to the crown and the underlying tooth or gum.
The 1990s saw a revolutionary development in the crown industry when dental crowns without a metal base were introduced for the first time.
CROWN YOUR MENU
On Shavuos, it is customary to celebrate the Torah, our crown. It’s also customary to celebrate lactose tolerance (just kidding, but we do have a minhag to eat dairy foods on Shavuos). Combine both, and you get delicious cheese crowns — flaky, cheesy and decadent. If you have never tasted a cheese crown, it’s time to add it to your baking list.
OUR TORAH, OUR CROWN
Just as crowns bring honor to kings and queens, adorning sifrei Torah is a way of honoring the Torah. The Torah itself is referred to as a crown, and there’s an old custom to festoon our Torah scrolls with various types of adornments, including crowns, crafted from silver and even gold.
Roizy BaumRABBEINU MOSHE! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
YOU CAN PUT IT TO BETTER USE THAN SINKING OUR SHIP.
I SAW YOU SNEAKING AROUND. I SURMISED WHAT YOU MIGHT DO AND FOLLOWED YOU.
RECAP: DISTRAUGHT OVER RUMAHIS’ DECEPTION, AND AFRAID HE’LL SPEND THE REST OF HIS LIFE FORCED TO HELP THE PIRATES, YOSEF IS ABOUT TO DESTROY THE SHIP. SUDDENLY, A VOICE CALLS OUT TO HIM TO STOP.
YOU INVENTED THIS? BY YOURSELF?
YEAH.
IT’LL SAVE US! WE’D GET TO A BOAT BEFORE THE SHIP SUNK, AND —
EVEN IF WE MADE IT TO A BOAT, HOW LONG WOULD WE LAST OUT HERE, SO FAR FROM SHORE? YOU AND I BOTH KNOW THAT WOULD NEVER WORK.
I HAVE TO DO SOMETHING. I WON’T SPEND THE REST OF MY LIFE AS A SLAVE TO THESE WICKED MEN!
I DOUBT THAT’S WHAT HASHEM HAS IN STORE FOR YOU. YOU HAVE TOO MUCH TO OFFER THE WORLD FOR HIM TO SQUANDER YOU LIKE THIS.
I DON’T THINK SO. EVERYTHING I DO SEEMS TO GO HAYWIRE. MY SKILLS HAVEN’T HELPED US AT ALL — EXCEPT TO MAKE THINGS WORSE!
by: YONAH KLEIN illustration: JACKY YARHI
WHEN NOTHING MAKES SENSE, IT’S A SURE SIGN THAT HASHEM IS TAKING CONTROL. YOUR PLANS MAY FAIL, YOSEF, BUT HIS NEVER DO! YOU SEEM TO HAVE TREMENDOUS HASHGACHA PRATIS. GREAT THINGS ARE IN STORE FOR YOU. TRUST ME…
