HOW TO BUILD GREAT MEMORIES

(Re: How to Build a Campfire, Issue 409)

We took our family to the Poconos for a few days and were looking forward to spending time with each other in nature, before the school year starts and we’re stuck in the city again. One of the things the kids were really looking forward to was building a campfire at night and roasting marshmallows around it. We all read your article and were really excited to try it! Unfortunately, it rained every night, so the wood was too wet to use the next day. Finally, on our last day there, we thought of using dry wood that you can buy at a local store or gas station. The only thing we needed to search for was the kindling and larger sticks. My kids did a great job building a teepee style campfire,

THERE’S A PIECE WAITING FOR YOU.

and even if we had to cheat a little with cardboard to keep it going, it was an amazing experience. We sang along with the guitar in the dark, roasted marshmallows over the spitting fire, and it was both the highlight of our trip and the perfect ending. Thanks for the great contribution to our trip!

CHOLENT NOSH

(Re: Table Talk, Issue 408)

I loved reading about all the different exciting ideas that different families have to enhance the Shabbos seuda and make it exciting for the younger children.

In our family, we have a tradition called “cholent nosh”. This tradition began with my husband’s parents. They used to entice their kids to sit by the seuda and eat cholent by offering a cholent nosh, an especially exciting, stylish nosh, for every child who sat and ate their entire serving of cholent. My husband, who has fond memories of this custom, has started the same custom in our home. The nosh is a surprise, and our kids look forward to it the whole meal. It definitely enhances Shabbos for us.

COMPUTER SAFETY

I’m writing to make people aware of a critical issue. A few months ago, I was at a computer kiosk in a local business, and I synced my Microsoft Edge profile with one of their computers. When I was done, I signed out and closed the computer, assuming that the system would be reset as indicated by the notice on the wall. However, I was alarmed when someone I know informed me that upon logging into the same computer, they were able to access my profile.

Thanks for enhancing our Shabbos table with such delicious challah! Although I’ve been baking challah for a couple of years already, I never followed an exact recipe (only my mother’s “a bit of this” and “some more of that”) and I never achieved the perfect results. That’s why I was so excited to have such a clear and detailed guide, and the results were a winner!

I just have one question which I hope you can answer. The recipe calls for 7 lbs. flour, but the groceries only sell sifted flour up to 6 lbs. I therefore bought two bags of flour, but I wasn’t

This means that anyone who opened Microsoft Edge on that particular computer could instantly view all my bookmarks, and with a few clicks could gain access to my emails, files, and other personal information. My acquaintance proceeded to check another computer at the same kiosk and discovered that they were able to log into numerous users’ email accounts and approximately 50 Chase bank accounts. It appears that their system automatically saves all passwords.

This letter is to make others aware: If you have used such kiosk services, you may want to reset your passwords and take steps to protect your accounts and data.

P.S. If you recently used a kiosk to order silicone molds on Amazon and never received them, they’re sitting in my office waiting for you.

PARSHAS KI SEITZEI

In Appreciation

RAV SHACH, ZT”L, once called over a close follower and asked him to find a yungerman to learn with a particular young bachur. “I would like a paid chavrusa to help this bachur advance in his learning. Come to my house every Rosh Chodesh,” Rav Shach said, “and I will give you money to pay him.”

The man was surprised. He didn’t know of any personal connection between Rav Shach and that bachur. In fact, the bachur was not even a talmid in his yeshivah, he learned someplace else. To his knowledge, Rav Shach was not related, either. Why would Rav Shach take such personal interest in this boy? he thought. But he simply did as he was told. He looked for a fitting yungerman to pair up with the bachur, and made sure he was paid the contracted amount on time each month.

One Rosh Chodesh, as the man knocked on Rav Shach’s door to pick up the money for the chavrusa, he was told that Rav Shach was in the middle of an important meeting with several askanim regarding urgent issues of the time, and he would not be able to enter. With no choice, he returned home without the cash.

The next day, he went to Rav Shach’s home again. “Why didn’t you come on Rosh Chodesh, as you do every month?” Rav Shach asked.

When he heard that he had been there the day before but had been turned away, Rav Shach apologized. “Take the money, and be sure to pay the yungerman right away!”

This was a perfect opportunity for the man to inquire

about the unusual arrangement. “I’m so happy to do this shelichus for the Rosh Yeshivah,” he said, “but may I ask why the Rosh Yeshivah troubles himself so for this particular bachur ?”

Rav Shach shared the background of his relationship with the boy. “When I was a bachur learning in yeshivah, I had only one shirt. Every week, before Shabbos, I would wash the shirt in private. I used to wait in the freezing cold for the icy winds to dry the shirt somewhat until I could wear it again. The shirt was so worn that eventually a hole appeared. Even as the hole grew larger, I continued to wear it, because I had nothing else.

“I was embarrassed by the hole,” Rav Shach admitted, “and I came up with all sorts of ways to cover up. I used to rush to be the first in beis midrash, and I sat with my back straight, pinned to the back of the bench, so no one would notice it. I sat that way for hours, until the very last bachur would leave the beis midrash, and only then would I allow myself to relieve my aching bones and return to my room.

“But as is the way of all secrets, this one, too, was discovered. An astute bachur noticed my torn shirt, and soon one of the women of the community took initiative and sent me two shirts. I felt like I had turned into a ‘Rothschild’ in a matter of moments!

“Suddenly, I had two shirts with which to alternate – one for Shabbos and one for weekday. I was finally able to stand up while I was learning to get another sefer from the shelf. Finally, I did not have to shiver in the cold as my shirt dried.

In this week’s parsha , we are warned that a Moabite may never enter kahal Hashem, since Moav did not provide Klal Yisroel with bread and water as they passed through their country (Devarim 23:5).

It seems that this action — or inaction — was simply a lack of “mentschlichkeit ”. Why was it deemed so terrible that it earned Moav such a grave punishment, one that lasts forever?

EYE HEALTH

We easily forget what an important role our eyes play in our daily lives. Vision is the most central of the five senses we constantly use. Our eyes gather the images that we see and then send them as messages to the brain. Healthy eyes allow us to focus on what we are doing. When they are weak it becomes difficult to focus and accomplish what we need to.

There are several different reasons why vision can become weak. It may be genetic, but most often it comes from aging. Our eyes weaken as we grow older. Solutions include eyeglasses and contact lenses; sometimes, surgery is needed.

 For dry eyes use drops to keep them moist.

 Drink plenty of water, 6 to 8 cups daily

 If you use contact lenses, take them out from time to time to give your eyes a rest.

 Don’t read in the dark at night. There is also a simple exercise that can be very beneficial for your eyes. Doctors call it the “20-20-20 rule” and is intended for people who work with computers: Every 20 minutes take a 20-second break during which your focus on something 20 feet away.

Chazal tells us that our overall health is directly connected to the health of our eyes. So it’s ideal to do everything we can to prevent vision problems from developing.

It is reported that people who sit in front of computer screens all day or do all their work on a tablet or cellphone blink 50% less often than others. That can lead to problems with dry eyes.

The most important vitamin for eye health is Vitamin A, which occurs naturally in egg yolks, liver, and dairy. Carrots are also high in Vitamin A, as well as beta carotene which is the active ingredient in Vitamin A, which is crucial for the eye: Omega 3 fish oil, Vitamins C, E, Zinc, Lutein, and Zeaxanthin are also great for eye health.

It was a major yeshuah!”

Rav Shach concluded his tale and explained that this bachur was a grandson of the woman who had treated him to those shirts. “All my life, I feel a real debt of gratitude to that woman for clothing me. Now that the woman has passed away, I continue to be makir tovah — to her children.

“This is why I am trying to help this bachur grow. I am overflowing with appreciation for what his grandmother did for me.” *

Here are some tips to avoid problems with your eyes:

 Make sure your home and workplace are not too damp. If they are, use a dehumidifier.

 Change the filter of your air conditioner often

 Place wet teabags on sore eyes for a few minutes, especially goldenseal tea.

Y si Berkowitz

The Ramban explains that the grievance against Moav was not due to their actual refusal to offer food and drink. Rather, the problem was that they were ungrateful. Generations earlier, during the war of the four and five kings, Avraham Avinu had risked his life to save Lot, the father of the nation of Moav. As such, it was expected of Moav to have hakaras hatov to Avraham’s grandchildren in their time of need.

Even though decades had passed, the obligation of hakaras hatov remained, since this middah is not limited to a benefactor alone, but carries on for generations after. One should feel indebted to the children and grandchildren of a person who has done them a favor.

The obligation of hakaras hatov is so integral to the character of Klal Yisrael that when the Moabites displayed kefiyas tovah, it inevitably invalidated their ability to join our ranks.

Adapted from the teachings of Rav Mordechai Freundlich, zt”l.

Missing Hikers Found After Massive Catskills Search Effort

There was a massive celebration in Minnewaska State Park on August 18 as members of Chaverim of Rockland’s Search And Rescue team found a pair of hikers who had been lost for nearly a full day.

The two young men were part of a group of 16 campers and four counselors from a South Fallsburg camp geared for individuals with special needs. The camp visited the Sam’s Point Preserve near Ellenville on August 17. A search was called for

the two campers, one eighteen years old and the other in his early twenties, after they separated from their group at approximately 5 p.m.

State police, park rangers, local sheriffs, Catskills Hatzolah and several other volunteer groups were called into the mountainous area to find the missing young men. Even during daylight hours, the search through the deeply wooded area was extremely challenging. As the hours went by, the combination of darkness, heavy fog and difficult weather combined to hamper rescuers’ efforts, reducing visibility to near-zero.

“Slippery rocks, you have to be careful with that, and up there, there’s a lot of patches with leaves which seems like solid ground, but you step on it and it’s between two rocks,” said Joseph Rosenberg of Matzil Search and Rescue.

Chaverim of Rockland’s SAR team was called in to join the search at 4 a.m. Friday morning, bringing along a mobile command center and specialized equipment. A contingent of 60 to 70 volunteers made the trip from Monsey to Ulster County in the pre-dawn hours amid soaking rains, setting up operations a short distance away from the main command center in order not to interfere with the ongoing rescue effort. Teams of trained volunteers were deployed into the wooded terrain, and the missing hikers were found less than two hours later. Both were dehydrated, scratched, bloodied and bruised after falling off a cliff that Chaverim coordinator Yossi Margaretten estimated to be approximately 25 feet high.

“Our members have wilderness and first aid training, and some are EMTs, and the hard work that they put in each year doing search and rescue training really paid off,” Margaretten told The Monsey View. “In situations like this, you really have no time to lose and Baruch Hashem, we were able to find them quickly and get them safely out of there.”

Shabbos Morning Thieves Continue

Targeting Local Cars

With over 100 cars broken into over the last three weekends, Chaverim coordinator Yossi Margaretten has some advice for area residents to prevent them from being

victimized by two men who have been targeting Monsey and Spring Valley.

“Lock your cars and don’t leave anything visible in your car because if they see something, they will break your windows,” Margaretten told The Monsey View

Over 25 cars were hit this past weekend alone, with the thieves venturing out at approximately 4 a.m. on Shabbos mornings looking for valuables. The two have taken items from both locked and unlocked vehicles, and are apparently aware that even if caught in the act, residents aren’t likely to call police for several hours untill Shabbos is over.

Both the Ramapo and Spring Valley police departments had extra patrols out last weekend and Chaverim’s Shabbos patrol, which has been cruising the streets as well, spotted one man breaking into a car on Elm Street. The thief was apprehended by the Ramapo Police Department, but was released because there was no one available on Shabbos to press charges against him.

Anyone who believes that they have been a victim of the Shabbos morning car thieves is encouraged to call Chaverim at 845-371-6333.

Security Breach Prompts TSA Changes for Travelers Using CLEAR

Customers who pay a significant annual fee to get through airport security using CLEAR may need to leave extra time for future travel, with the TSA (Transit Security Administration) announcing plans to require all passengers to present valid identification in order to be able to fly.

According to Bloomberg, the security crackdown comes after a July 2022 incident at Washington’s Regan National Airport, when a CLEAR subscriber was allowed through the company’s security line using a fake ID and carrying ammunition in his bag. The breach prompted a TSA investigation into CLEAR, whose customers pay as much as $189 annually to undergo a biometric scan to verify their identities instead of facing regular airport security protocols. Citing troubling findings, the TSA announced in June that it would phase in a requirement to have its agents verify all flyers’ identities, including CLEAR customers.

According to CBS News, the agency intends to bring its own facial recognition technology to airport security desks, which will compare passengers’ faces to their identification photos. The new system is scheduled to be rolled out in 28 airports by the end of the calendar year.

While CLEAR flyers will still have expedited access at airport security lines, some greeted the latest news from the TSA with frustration.

“The whole reason for CLEAR is to kind of breeze through,” said subscriber Jamie Phillips, adding, “I might as well go through a regular check.”

Others took a different perspective of the issue. Former TSA administrator John Pistole, currently a security consultant for American

Airlines, described last year’s security breach as a significant cause for concern.

“As we know, it only takes one bad actor to bring down a plane if they are a committed terrorist,” said Pistole.

No Radioactive Waste Dumps in Hudson Under New Law

Months of grassroots efforts have paid off in a big way, with Governor Kathy Hochul signing legislation last week that put an end to plans to dump contaminated water from the decommissioned Indian Point nuclear power plant into the Hudson River.

As previously reported in The Monsey View, Holtec International announced in April that it would be spilling one million gallons of treated radioactive water into the Hudson this summer, prompting an outcry from local officials and private citizens. Hochul signed the Save the Hudson bill on August 18, calling the river “one of New York’s landmark natural treasures” and vowing to “protect it for generations to come.” Hochul’s administration plans to work together with Holtec, local officials and others to find alternate ways to dispose of the contaminated wastewater, so that the former power plant can

be cleaned up safely, efficiently and promptly.

County Executive Ed Day expressed his relief at the bill’s passage saying, “I applaud my fellow Hudson Valley county executives, our local elected officials and state and federal lawmakers for all taking action to stop what would have been an atrocity to our environment.”

Representative Mike Lawler said that he looked forward to working with others to find a fiscally viable solution to the wastewater problem that wouldn’t have negative repercussions on the environment.

“Protecting the Hudson River and our communities that utilize it is of paramount importance,” said Lawler. “We must work together to find a workable solution for all involved.”

Dog Locates Missing Woman in Suffern Woods

A relatively new recruit to the Rockland County Sheriff’s Office celebrated her first successful rescue earlier this month, not by going out to dinner or calling a friend, but by chewing on toys and indulging in extra playtime.

Galli the bloodhound has been with the sheriff’s office since February and is the newest arrival to the county’s K9 team. When efforts to find a missing 76-year-old resident of Suffern failed, Galli and her handler, Deputy Sheriff Brian Neary, were brought in to track her scent, reported The Journal News

Galli headed into a wooded area, nose to the ground as she continued tracking the missing woman’s scent eight hours after her disappearance. After a third of a mile, Galli completed her mission, locating the missing woman, who had fallen while walking in the woods. The woman was transported to Good Samaritan Hospital as a precautionary measure, while Galli was rewarded for a job well done.

Galli is a graduate of Scent Evidence K9 in Tallahassee, Florida, and the only bloodhound among the sheriff’s office’s K9 team of nine dogs.

CHAPTER 20

Lani develops the uncomfortable suspicion that the Strohs have become financially well off. Riva doesn’t show up at work the day after Yom Tov.

Riva was standing in front of the house, watching Tzippy on her bike and walking Eli around in his push car, when Fraidy arrived home from school. The sight of her daughter made her grip tighten around the bike’s handlebar, but she played it cool as she cautiously asked, “How was your day?”

“Great,” Fraidy said. Then, aware of what her mother had really meant, she added, “Chevi didn’t start up with me today.”

Riva exhaled. “Baruch Hashem.” A neighbor came over to schmooze with Fraidy, and Riva observed the casual exchange with a flutter of hope.

The next few days followed in a similar manner. Riva didn’t hear a word of complaint about Chevi, and she dared to allow herself to exhale. Whatever it was, it had been a passing stage; they could let bygones be bygones.

The relief lasted all of one week.

* * * * *

The phone call came when she was at work — although she wasn’t supposed to be at work. Hadn’t she decided to quit a mere week ago? Some success that had been; she had been back at work the next day, apologizing to Mr. G that she hadn’t felt well the previous day, which garnered a series of slow nods.

Now, back in the stifling cell that was her office desk, she saw the school’s number on her phone. Her stomach sank. What now?

She said hello in a low voice, but instead of a response, she heard quiet sobs.

“Fraidy…?”

More sobbing.

“Fraidy, tell me what happened.” Her eyes skittered toward her boss’s

desk. That, of course, triggered his radar, and he immediately looked up and caught her gaze. His small, cold, gray eyes bore through her skin, and he gave a slow, deliberate nod, as though to say, go ahead, spend your time here chatting on the phone She saw his lips move, and she could make out the words of his favorite taunt. “A hefker velt. This place is a hefker velt. What can I do? Everyone does whatever they want.”

On the phone, Fraidy started stuttering through her sobs. “Sh-sh-she sh-sh-she took my s-s-sweatband and c-c-cut it up. She th-th-threw the pieces on my head, and everyone, the whole class, l-l-laughed.”

A horrible nausea settled in Riva’s chest, and it took tremendous effort to restrain herself from bursting into tears herself. “Oy, Fraidy, that’s awful....”

Fraidy continued sniveling and stuttering, begging Riva to pick her up from school right away. Riva sat at the edge of her chair, holding the phone tensely as she watched her boss stand up and start pacing the room.

She had to get up and leave, go outside and focus on this situation with Fraidy, calm her down. But there was no going anywhere with Mr. G. strutting around like he was on guard duty.

And then her phone rang, her direct extension.

Mr. G. all but delighted at the sound. He stopped walking and stared at Riva, daring her to miss the call. Riva’s breathed rapidly. The phone — her boss — Fraidy.

“Uh… Fraidy?” she said quickly. “Can you call me again in like, five minutes?”

The call was on its third ring. Fraidy burst into a fresh round of sobs.

“I have to hang up,” Riva said urgently.

Her boss’s face boasted a victorious smirk. He wanted her to miss this call, he was waiting for it to happen.

Riva snapped her cell phone shut and grabbed the office phone.

“Hello, how can I help you?” she said with forced calm.

It was Zeyman, calling to set up a payment schedule. An ordinary call with an ordinary response. Her boss looked downright disappointed.

Fraidy didn’t call again. When Mr. Gabioff left the office to go down to a job site to oversee the work (despite the fact that he paid a person to oversee job sites), Riva went outside and called Mrs. Hilman, the school secretary.

“I think she calmed down,” Mrs. Hilman reported to Riva. “She went back to class. Should I call you if we have a problem again?”

“Yes, please do.”

When she hung up, she leaned against the wall of the building, filling her lungs with air. There was a construction site across the street, and she absently watched a crane lift beams high in the air. Fraidy’s sobs echoed over the loud noise, and with a sudden surge of anger, Riva made up her mind.

She was going to talk to Lani.

Lani answered after the first ring. “Hi, aren’t you at work?”

“I’m at work, and Fraidy’s in school, crying her heart out.”

“Huh?”

“Huh is right. Do you know why she’s crying?”

“Uh, how would I know?”

“Well, I’ll tell you. She’s crying because your Chevi—” she spat the name out — “your Chevi cut up her sweatband, threw the pieces over her head, and made the entire class laugh at her.”

“Ummm… what? Who told you that?”

“Fraidy told me. She called me in tears, I couldn’t calm her down. She wants me to pick her up from school now, and you know something, maybe I should. How could I force her to sit in class with Chevi bullying her?”

“Bullying? Hello, Riva, could you, like, calm down? I have no idea what happened today, I’m sure there’s another whole side to this story, but either way, don’t make a whole matzav about a one-time fight in school. They’re kids.”

“One time fight!” Riva exploded. “Wake up and smell the coffee, Lani Eisdorf. I hate to break the news to you, but this is going on for a while, and guess what? I’ve had it. I gave it time, but that’s it. We’re going to make this stop.”

“I have no idea what you’re talking about. What’s all that noise?”

“Construction across the street. Don’t change the subject.”

“I’m glad construction’s still underway for some people,” Lani muttered.

Riva ignored her. “Well? What are you going to do about this?”

It was quiet for a moment. As she waited for Lani to answer, a familiar black BMW pulled up in a parking spot in

ON THE PHONE, FRAIDY STARTED STUTTERING THROUGH HER SOBS.

“SH-SH-SHE SH-SHSHE TOOK MY S-SSWEATBAND AND C-C-CUT IT UP. SHE THTH-THREW THE PIECES ON MY HEAD, AND EVERYONE, THE WHOLE CLASS, L-L-LAUGHED”

front of the next building. Riva’s limbs went weak as her boss jumped out and banged the door shut. Her first instinct was to bolt. He hadn’t noticed her yet, maybe she could make it safely back to her desk. But before she had a chance to move, Mr. G spun around.

“Busy day today?” he asked with the most scathing sweetness.

For the second time that day, Riva flipped her phone closed without a goodbye. Like a prisoner caught trying to escape, she marched back into the office.

There was another hour to go before she could leave for the day. It was impossible to get any work done with her nerves so tightly coiled. When the hour was finally over, Riva fled from the building.

She dialed Yaakov, hoping to let off some steam. But her call went straight to voicemail. Of course, he was probably sitting with Eric Moore, or maybe with Eli Bleich, or with some other architecture students, doing coursework together. She was so angry, she had an absurd urge to rip a bunch of grid paper to shreds.

Gittel Indig called as she stepped into the house. “I wanted to ask you, would you mind switching with me this Thursday, you take Maddie in the morning and she’ll come to me in the afternoon?”

“No, I’m sorry. I work, I’m not home in the morning.”

Her words came out sounding unnecessarily rude, and she immediately felt guilty. It wasn’t Gittel’s fault that she’d had a tough day.

“Aha,” Gittel said. “So I guess I’ll just have to cancel. My daughter’s having a play in school that day, so I’ll be out of the house.”

Well, it wouldn’t help to feel guilty, because she really couldn’t do anything to help her. But Gittel didn’t sound all that upset. She continued talking with a note of excitement in her voice. “By the way,” she started, and the moment she said “by the way,” Riva knew this wasn’t by the way at all, this was the reason for the call. “I wanted to ask you, did you ever hear about Rav Kleinman’s new tzedakah initiative? He set up this whole organization to

help mispallelim who need financial aid. So I was thinking, you should totally tell your sister about this. I’m sure she would appreciate the help.”

* * * * *

There was nothing, absolutely nothing, about what Riva had said that should’ve affected Lani’s day in any way. Seriously, their girls had a fight in school, Fraidy’s sensitive neshamah was touched. Was that a reason for dramatic fireworks?

It wasn’t. And yet, from the moment Lani hung up — or rather, was knocked off — the phone with Riva, a heaviness settled in her chest, and she couldn’t shake an uncomfortable feeling of dread, as though a violent storm hung low in the air.

She didn’t like the idea, but she knew she had no choice but to talk to Chevi.

The problem was that it was impossible to find a private place in the basement to talk. She also didn’t want to make the “talk” all official, obviously seeking out a private place to conduct what would then feel like a loaded conversation.

Instead, Lani opted for an excuse to be with Chevi alone. “I’m running over to the grocery for a few things,” she told her after supper. “Do you want to come along to help me schlep the bags home?”

“Yeah, okay,” Chevi said.

Lani tried to read her daughter’s face, see if there was anything lurking. Chevi appeared to be a little tired, but nothing more than that.

At first, Lani tried to come up with a way to nonchalantly broach the topic. But there’s no nonchalant way to inquire about an ugly school fight, so when they were filling up bags with Cortland apples for a compote, Lani gave up and asked the question straight out. “Did something happen

THEY WEREN’T GETTING ANYWHERE. LANI DIDN’T THINK CHEVI WAS LYING, BUT SHE ALSO COULDN’T FIGURE OUT WHAT EXACTLY HAD HAPPENED AND WHO WAS TO BLAME

with Fraidy in school today?”

“How would I know?”

“What do you mean, Chev? You’re classmates.”

Chevi dumped another apple into her bag. “She’s not my friend anymore,” she said flatly.

“Really? But why?”

“Because she has horrible middos and I don’t like playing with her, okay?”

Uh, not really okay. “Why do you say that?” Lani prodded.

Chevi held the bag from the top and swung the bottom so it twisted tightly over the apples. “Because she’s a huge snob and thinks she’s better than everyone else.”

They put the apples in their wagon and moved along to the peaches. Lani sniffed the fruit, trying to determine if they were in season already.

“Do you want to tell me what happened today?” she asked.

“No.”

“Please?”

“She acted like a baby and the whole class got involved. Whatever.”

Lani ripped a bag off a roll. “Do you think she got hurt?”

“Why would she get hurt?” Chevi snapped “She was the one acting mean.”

They weren’t getting anywhere. Lani didn’t think Chevi was lying, but she also couldn’t figure out what exactly had happened and who was to blame. By the time they left the store, she didn’t feel much smarter than when they’d come, and the only thing she’d accomplished was to make Chevi brood.

They walked home in silence. When they reached the front of the house, she saw Chaim Tzvi approach from the other side of the street. Lani sent Chevi inside with some of the bags, then turned to Chaim Tzvi.

“Something happened in school today, with Chevi and Fraidy,” she told Chaim Tzvi. “They got into a fight, and Riva’s all mad. I don’t know what’s going on, Chevi’s not talking clearly.” Lani repeated what Riva had told her, and the little bit she’d gotten out of Chevi. “What do you think?” she asked Chaim Tzvi.

Chaim Tzvi dug into his jacket pocket and pulled out an envelope. He took out a folded sheet of paper, stuck it back in his pocket, and ripped up the envelope. It didn’t look like he’d heard much of what Lani had said.

“Uh, Chaim Tzvi? Everything all right?”

He stuck the ripped envelope into a different pocket. “Yes, sure, why not?”

“I’m asking you about Chevi.”

“Right, so I think the first thing is to give it time. Let’s see if anything else comes up or if it was a one-time thing.”

She’d clearly told him that it wasn’t a one-time thing. That was probably the only thing that aligned between Riva and Chevi’s stories.

But Chaim Tzvi had obviously missed that detail, and as she followed him down the steps to the basement, she couldn’t help feeling like his mind was somewhere else. There was something going on that he wasn’t telling her. TO BE CONTINUED…

WHO’S THE SMARTEST KID IN THE CLASS?

If you’re thinking of the girl everyone calls a genius and who gets hundreds on every test, you may or may not be right, because doing well in school isn’t the only definition of intelligence.

According to Multiple Intelligence Theory, there are actually seven different kinds of intelligences, which are ways of being smart. While every person has all seven intelligences, there’s usually one or two that they are strongest in. There are geniuses in every kind of intelligence.

WELCOME TO THE INTELLIGENT CLASSROOM

Leah, Libby, Suri, Kaila, Miriam, Itty, and Idy have all been part of the same class since kindergarten. They know that they’re all very different, but they’ve never been quite clear on what sets them apart from one another. Follow their journey as they each discover what kind of genius they are.

WORD SMART: LINGUISTIC INTELLIGENCE

“Leah, can you write my essay for me?” Kaila begs. Every time there’s a writing assignment, there are crowds around Leah’s desk, with her classmates begging her to look over their assignments. Leah is considered one of the smartest girls in her class, because she remembers everything the teacher says without studying, and she gets great marks on tests with her articulately written answers. She’s a great tutor, because she knows how to explain things clearly.

Leah is highly intelligent in linguistics, so she understands words and languages instinctively. She’s probably good at learning new languages, loves to know new or interesting words, and has a great vocabulary.

FUN STUFF:

Leah likes playing Scrabble, Bananagrams, or Boggle. (Of course she likes it — she always wins.) She spends a lot of her free time reading.

WHEN SHE GROWS UP:

Leah wants to be either a teacher or an author when she grows up. But she’ll take any job that uses her talent for the written and spoken word.

RANDOM FACT:

Linguistic intelligence is said to be the most common intelligence, meaning that more people are smart in this area than in others.

NUMBER SMART: LOGICAL INTELLIGENCE

Libby has loved math since she was two years old and learned addition by adding legos. She can complete the teacher’s math problems on the board because she seems to naturally know what the answer should be, even before the teacher finishes teaching. Everyone asks her for help with math homework, although they can’t always understand Libby’s explanations for why the answer “has to be seven.” Her logic must work, though, because she’s always right.

Science class is another time that Libby shines, especially when there are a lot of formulas to follow.

With lots of logical intelligence, Libby finds patterns and reasoning in everything in life. She can break things down into a step-by-step process easily, and she loves to have everything neatly filed and organized. Numbers and systems interest her more than anything else.

FUN STUFF:

Libby likes to play Monopoly, Chess, or Stratego. She also loves Sudoku, so she’s always in the middle of a Sudoku puzzle. For years, she’s had various collections, like a bottle cap collection, which she spends time counting and organizing every so often.

WHEN SHE GROWS UP:

Libby wants to be a computer programmer like her father, although if she could become a research scientist that would be even more amazing.

RANDOM FACT:

Famous people with strong logical intelligence are Albert Einstein and Bill Gates.

END OF SPECIAL

TH E REAL MOUNTAINS FLEISCHMANN S NY

PICTURE SMART: SPATIAL INTELLIGENCE

When Suri makes the centerpieces for the grade Shabbos, everyone knows to expect something showstopping. She can take a bunch of pieces of what everyone else would call garbage and turn them into a beautiful masterpiece.

Another time when Suri shines is during play season, when she figures out how to construct scenery and props that dazzle, and during Color War, when no one knows quite what she’s done to create a gorgeous 3-D banner.

Suri excels in spatial intelligence. Spatial intelligence means that she can picture in her mind what a finished product will look like, whether it’s a drawing or a construction project. It means she remembers everything she sees easily, and knows if something will fit into a particular space or not. Her spatial intelligence makes her the first to notice when someone gets a new outfit or accessory. When she thinks, her brain is full of pictures rather than words.

FUN STUFF:

Suri loves doing 1,000 piece puzzles and finishes them more quickly than anyone else can, because after one glance at the front of the box, she remembers exactly what the picture should look like.

WHEN SHE GROWS UP:

Suri would love to be a party planner, or an interior designer.

RANDOM FACT:

People with spatial intelligence are often amazing at giving directions, but they’re also often messy and disorganized. They’re better at organizing things in their brain than actually physically putting things in place.

BODY SMART: KINESTHETIC INTELLIGENCE

If you’re going to say “Dance Head,” in this classroom, you may as well say “Kaila!” Kaila is always the one everyone turns to when they need motions for a performance, and she always comes up with creative and original dance moves.

Since she was six, Kaila has been taking gymnastics lessons, and now she teaches gymnastics at a club she formed for younger girls. During recess, Kaila never sits around and schmoozes. She’s either organizing a ballgame or turning on music and doing aerobics with her friends.

Kinesthetic intelligence usually includes being athletic, but it really means being gifted in mind-body coordination. People like Kaila who are strong in this intelligence are said to use “muscle memory,” which means that they remember things best when they’ve used their muscles for it. It also means that they can control the precise timing and coordination for every move they make, so while they shine in sports and gymnastics, they might also become surgeons or other hands-on professionals.

FUN STUFF:

Kaila loves all sports.

WHEN SHE GROWS UP:

She’s been thinking of becoming an aqua therapist, or any kind of physical therapist.

RANDOM FACT:

Kinesthetic intelligence is said to be the least helpful in the classroom, so kinesthetically intelligent people might be considered poor students, even though they’re gifted in other areas.

MUSIC SMART: MUSICAL INTELLIGENCE

Miriam puts together incredible harmonies for every choir she’s ever part of. She can spend hours practicing with a soloist until the pitch of the solo is exactly right. Miriam’s the one to ask when you need a tune, because she seems to remember hundreds, or maybe even thousands, without even trying.

Lately, Miriam has started taking guitar lessons, and her teacher is amazed at how quickly she’s progressing, becoming one of the best guitarists she’s ever taught.

Miriam has musical intelligence, the gift of understanding music. It includes understanding pitch, tone, and how lyrics match music. People with musical intelligence like Miriam hear the rhythm of everything in life, and are attuned to sound. Some people with this intelligence also have perfect pitch, which means that they can tell you what musical note every sound they hear strikes.

FUN STUFF:

Miriam’s favorite thing to do is to listen to music, of course.

WHEN SHE GROWS UP:

Miriam would love to own a recording studio where she can mix music to her heart’s content. It would also be nice to be able to compose songs.

RANDOM FACT:

Musically intelligent people often find themselves tapping to the beat of a song in perfect rhythm without even meaning to. Just being able to whistle a tune also shows a certain amount of musical intelligence.

PEOPLE SMART: INTERPERSONAL INTELLIGENCE

Itty is the girl who goes to speak to the principal when she feels that there’s an injustice being done. She’s the one who will ask for another day off to study before a test, or a change in policy, explaining why it would be for everyone’s benefit.

While Itty is not necessarily the girl with the most friends in class, everyone likes her, because she knows just how to make everyone feel good. Sometimes, when there are “politics,” teachers privately ask Itty to help resolve the problem. Adults say Itty is mature beyond her years because she understands other people so well.

Having interpersonal intelligence like Itty means intuitively understanding where other people are coming from and what makes people tick. She instantly picks up on what people around her are doing, what their moods are, and how they feel. Very simply put, she is the archetypical people’s person.

FUN STUFF:

Itty loves spending time with her friends, whatever it is that they’re doing, even when they’re doing nothing.

WHEN SHE GROWS UP:

Itty’s not sure exactly what she wants to be, though she does dream of being a principal. She’s pretty sure she could do a great job getting people to listen to her.

RANDOM FACT:

People with interpersonal intelligence are sometimes easily distracted, because they always want to see what everyone else is doing instead of focusing on their own activity.

SELF-SMART: INTRAPERSONAL INTELLIGENCE

When everyone else gets worked up, Idy stays calm. Even when something extremely upsetting happens, Idy doesn’t get flustered. Sometimes after a stressful day in school she’ll need extra time alone in her room to unwind, but she always knows how to de-stress on her own. While she doesn’t necessarily act differently from her friends, she always knows in her own mind what she really thinks and what her independent opinion is. It’s typical for other girls to confide in Idy, because they know she always has wise and sensible advice to share, and that she knows how to keep secrets. Girls tease her that she’ll be a therapist one day, which makes Idy blush, but deep down her dream is to teach other people how to help themselves.

FUN STUFF:

As long as no one knows about it, Idy spends her free time writing in a journal and reading self-help books.

WHEN SHE GROWS UP:

Idy’s pretty sure she’ll be some kind of coach.

RANDOM FACT:

Intrapersonal intelligence is considered the rarest kind of intelligence to have.

THE EIGHTH NOTE

Howard Gardner, the psychologist who proposed the Multiple Intelligence Theory, added an eighth intelligence to the original seven a few years after publishing his theory.

This intelligence is called the naturalistic intelligence, or nature smart. Being strong in this intelligence means enjoying nature, finding it easy and fun to learn about nature, and being good at understanding how nature works. They might enjoy having pets or growing plants, instinctively knowing how to take care of them properly.

People who are strong in this intelligence like farming and gardening, enjoy camping and hiking, and very often look for jobs that are related to nature.

prodigy

[prod-i-jee]

A person, especially a child or young person, having extraordinary talent or ability

Psychology defines a child prodigy as someone under the age of ten who “produces meaningful output at the level of an adult expert.”

Personally, I think being average is highly underrated. Average people fit in with most of their peers. Not sticking out too much, whether for good or for bad, can be a blessing. But of course, there are also those who were blessed with superb intelligence and gifts that can be noticed from a young age. Some of these young geniuses go on to accomplish great things in academia or in a specific field, and truly leave their mark on history.

Mozart

Some people “just” have a high IQ, while others are highly gifted with a specific skill. One of the latter was Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, probably one of the most famous child prodigies. He was a world-renowned musician and composed over 600 musical works throughout his short life (he died at 35). He learned to play the piano and violin when he was only three years old by watching his father teach his older sister how to play. Soon, he was playing complex pieces. He was six years old when he wrote his first compositions and toured Europe as a young child, performing for royalty and aristocrats. He didn’t stop writing until he died, leaving behind brilliant sonatas, concertos and operas that are played around the world until today.

Chess is one of those games that I never had the patience to master but wish that I had. Maybe if I would’ve started younger, like chess prodigy Awonder Liang, I would’ve been amazing at it.

Awonder (I know, I a-wonder about his name too. Did his parents name him that when they saw that he was a child prodigy, or is it just a Chinese name?) started playing chess when he was five years old, and at eight years old became the youngest chess expert in (USCF) United States Chess Federation history.

The highest title a chess player can achieve, besides World Champion, is Grandmaster, which is awarded by the world chess organization FIDE. When Liang was nine years old, he became the youngest player to ever win a chess match against a grandmaster, and at fourteen he was awarded the title of Grandmaster himself, becoming the third-youngest American to qualify for that title.

Kim UngYong

As for the ones with “just” a very high IQ, one such child is Kim Ung-Yong, a genius from Korea who was born in 1962. He was having full conversations at just six months old, solving complex calculus problems by three, reading in four languages by the time he was four, and got his PhD when he was eight. He is recognized as having one of the highest recorded IQs, scoring at around 210 (the average person’s IQ is between 85-115, with above average scoring between 115-129). He studied to become a civil engineer and as an adult was a professor in several universities and research centers.

Priyanshi Somani

Numbers and I have never really gotten along, but some people are blessed with mathematical prowess; Priyanshi Somani is one of them. They call her the “mental calculator” and it’s pretty obvious why. When she was seven years old, she won the National Championship in Abacus and Mental Calculation in India and kept that title for the next few years. At the Mental Calculation World Cup in 2010 when Priyanshi was just eleven years old, she won the overall title at the competition while competing against adults. What did she do to win? Oh, just simple things like multiplying two numbers of eight digits each, getting the square root of six-digit numbers (she came in first place for that), adding ten numbers of ten digits each, and yes, calculating all of that in mere seconds just using her head.

Gregory Smith

Another child prodigy who became well known across America in the early 2000s is Gregory Smith, who was reading and reciting books when he was fourteen months old. I was barely walking at that age. When I was starting to piece words together at eighteen months old, Gregory was doing addition.

He completed second through eighth grade in one year and began high school at seven years old. He finished high school by the time he was nine and started college when he was ten. Ten!

He’s an adult today and is a researcher for gene expression. He has also been an advo cate for children’s rights and safety since he was a teenager and has been nominated five times for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Savants

Imagine being able to read two pages of a book at once, with your right eye reading the right page while your left eye reads the left page, and then being able to remember every detail about what you read. Even the “regular” geniuses in this article wouldn’t be able to do that, but a different kind of genius can.

Savants are people with extremely unusual abilities. Interestingly, their abilities seem to come from impairments to the left frontal temporal lobe of the brain. Most savants have developmental delays, defects, and handi caps but are able to do amazing things with their minds.

SAVANT LESLIE LEMKE, was born with severe birth defects, had to have his eyes removed, and couldn’t stand up until he was twelve years old. When he was sixteen his mother woke up in the middle of the night to him playing a complex piece of music that he had heard earlier in the day. After that, they found out that Leslie can play any piece of music perfectly after hearing it just once.

STEPHEN WILTSHIRE was diagnosed with autism as a young child and started talking at nine years old. He has incredible drawing abilities and can draw an entire scene, down to the last detail, after seeing it just once. He was flown over Tokyo in a helicopter once and then drew a detailed and accurate panoramic drawing of what he had seen fleetingly during the ride.

DANIEL TAMMET is another famous savant. For him, every number has a unique color, texture and feel. He has described his visual image of 289 as particularly ugly and 333 as attractive. He can clearly “see” the answer to a math problem and has recited from memory the first 22,514 digits of pi in five hours. He knows seven languages and learned one of them, Icelandic, in just one week. He has been diagnosed with Asperger’s but is very high functioning in comparison to other savants, and has helped scientists learn more about how a savant’s brain functions.

EQ and IQ

So we know it’s cool to be smart, but is that really what makes a person happier and more successful in life? Because life isn’t lived in textbooks and classrooms; it’s lived with families and friendships and awkward situations and difficult dilemmas.

Writer and psychologist Daniel Goleman wrote a book called Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ, in which he describes the five components of emotional intelligence. He says “emotional intelligence is about self-awareness, internal motivation, self-regulation, empathy, and social skills”.

While having a high EQ might not give you high grades in math, it’ll give you the tools to build healthy relationships and resolve challenging situations long after you’ve graduated.

I’ve heard people dismiss academic ability with the statement that “the A students work for the B students who work for the C students who run businesses in buildings dedicated by the D students.” While this idea is debatable, it’s true that there are many areas of strength that can compensate for, or complement, academic weakness. These skills help people be innovative, creative, and hardworking, which comes in handy in many areas, including careers and relationships. That’s not to say that people with a high IQ aren’t very successful in those areas too. But the impact of a strong EQ is often overlooked, when it offers just as much of an advantage as a high IQ does.

IQ Test

IQ testing was developed by psychologists to measure problem solving, reasoning, and how someone can use information and logic to solve problems. Most basic IQ tests take around twenty minutes to complete and include a lot of pattern-related questions.

One psychologist developed the Cognitive Reflection Test, also known as the shortest IQ test, which is just three brain teasers that assess your ability to process information rationally. Not a lot of people get all three questions right, because the answers aren’t the first thought that pops into your head. See for yourself!

1. A bat and a ball cost $1.10 in total. The bat costs $1 more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?

2. If it takes 5 machines 5 minutes to make 5 widgets, how long would it take 100 machines to make 100 widgets?

3. In a lake, there is a patch of lily pads. Every day, the patch doubles in size. If it takes 48 days for the patch to cover the entire lake, how long would it take for the patch to cover half of the lake?

Answers:

1. Five cents. If you guessed 10 cents, you’re not alone. However, if that were the case, the bat and ball together would cost $1.20—not $1.10. On the other hand, a 5-cent ball and a bat priced at $1.05 (which is $1 more than 5 cents) would total $1.10.

2. Five minutes. Although you might have answered 100 minutes, the actual time is less than that. Since the question reveals that it would take 5 minutes for 1 widget machine to make 1 widget, you can determine that it would also take 5 minutes for 100 widget machines to make 100 widgets.

3. 47 days. At first, your gut might tell you it would take 24 days. But remember: Since the area of the lake covered in lily pads doubles every day, a patch that covers half the lake would fully cover it in just one additional day. Subtract one day from 48 days, and you get 47 days.

BrainyPlay

As the summer wanes, we shift back into learning mode. But lots of learning has been happening in the summer, too — learning that is equally important and just as life-changing as the learning your child experiences in school.

The summer weather combined with time outdoors naturally lends itself to exploration, and the learning and discovery opportunities are endless.

This kind of learning can continue year-’round, with a parent’s perspective and gentle encouragement. Really, all that’s needed to foster a child’s exploration is an inquisitive mind. But some products are more conducive to learning than others. Let me share with you some items we’ve discovered over the years that are great for children’s growth and development.

Squish Ball Rattle

This interesting combination of wooden rods, balls, and strings gives you a toy that is easy for a baby to grasp. As the baby’s skills develop, they can enjoy the balls that move as they turn the toy, and the “squish” when they grasp it with two hands. This toy fosters an understanding of cause and effect, and is overall a nice, simple toy for baby to engage with. It comes in a variety of color finishes.

Rainbow Blocks

While all blocks are recommended for open-ended play, colorful blocks add some interest to the play. Featuring a natural wood frame and different color translucent plastic centers, these blocks are interesting and fun to interact and experiment with. They com bine well with Playmags, Little People, toy animals, and other blocks.

Wood-Tip Lacing Bead Strings

Lacing is an important fine motor skill that can be challenging for a child to master. Rather than setting it aside for a year or two, get some strings with a wood tip. The wood tip supports your child’s attempts at getting the string through the bead and simplifies the task.

Musical Instrument

I am not at all a music expert, but research exists that correlates music with various developmental processes. Small children can enjoy interacting and creating rhythm with instruments such as maracas, tambourines, drums, and xylophones. As your child’s interest grows, you can explore other musical options as

HABA 12 Piece Puzzles

Puzzles are great for fostering problem solving and various visual skills. What always bothered me was the gap in progression between peg puzzles and large 24 piece floor puzzles. HABA puzzles nicely bridge that gap, offering a variety of 12 piece puzzles featuring themes like animals, trucks, farm and zoo. They are great for scaffolding skills as kids learn to look for edges, pieces of similar color, and fit pieces together.

Screw Driver Set

We are the proud owners of three complete toy toolkits. Unfortunately, they sit on our toy shelf most of the time. Because they don’t really do anything. Although I’m sure there are boys who enjoy using tool sets for pretend play, my boys tired of them quickly. What they do enjoy is our children’s screwdriver set, because that actually works. Our set came with a real screwdriver and a wooden case which doubles as the work surface to screw and unscrew a variety of included bolts, washers, and screws. I recommend it for three to four year old boys.

Rain Boots for puddle jumping

This is a product that took me longer to buy. Because every child has winter shoes, summer shoes, weekday shoes, Shabbos shoes, some kind of water shoes, snow boots, and maybe rollerblades. And all that all over again when they outgrow them the next year. Now rain boots, too? I figured we’d do without. But after I had one child who plunged goodnaturedly into every puddle regardless of their footwear, rain boots were clearly a necessity. Of course, once one child got them, siblings wanted in on the fun too. So now we have a lot of rain boots, and we haven’t regretted the purchase. I encourage all of you to try it too, even if you are squeamish about the jumping in rain puddles activity. I can’t really give you the scientific background, but I assure you that jumping in puddles is a wonderful experience for your children and is good for them, too!

Paint Sticks

Painting is a great exploratory activity, but we aren’t always ready for the setup, cleanup, and mess it entails. Enter paint sticks: A glue stick look-alike that paints! Easy to use and minimal mess, paint sticks are a lot of fun and a great tool for gorgeous artwork. Of course, real paint is fun in different ways, and a great experience for when you can pull that off, too!

Tiny Polka Dot Game

This is the most educational item on this list. I generally avoid academic material as I think experiencing real life is the best way to learn. However, my daughter consistently chooses this game for family game time, so you can be sure the fun factor is there. The game consists of a deck of number cards in various formats (numerals, dice dots, random dots, and others). It contains instruction cards teaching you how to play a variety of very creative number games for a range of ages (3 to 8).Its mission statement is to give over a love of math and change the way math is taught, learned and perceived.

Magnet Poetry (for kids)

This is a set of magnets containing words or phrases. You arrange them on a magnetic surface to write poems, silly sentences and more.

Wall Map

A map of the world broadens your child’s outlook and experience way past his own immediate surroundings. A map can give your child important information about distance, and they will enjoy locating countries they hear about in current events or where family members live.

Magnifying Glass, Binoculars, Microscope

All of these are great ways for children to observe, explore, question, and learn about nature and the environment around them.

Local Nature or Field Guides

Great when paired with the magnifying glasses, binoculars, or microscopes, nature guides foster observation skills, and give children the thrill of learning about, naming and identifying local wildlife.

Our overarching goal of raising children is to serve Hashem. While in bygone generations, the success of a child was attributed to their mother’s tears, today it's easy to get sidetracked by the haze of opportunities and methodologies. Yes, of course we'll daven — and we'll do horseback riding therapy and social skills training, too! I don’t mean to minimize the importance of those opportunities or any tools we have at our disposal today. But don’t lose sight of our purpose and ultimate goal.

I touched on a variety of interests here, enough to jumpstart your child's exploration. When you notice your child is interested in something particular, go with it! Have those materials available in the environment, get books on the topic, and provide related material for exploration.

Wishing you many happy adventures together!

What Shlomo Taught Me

SCHONFELD

Shlomo was one of my campers in Yedideinu Day Camp, quite a few summers ago. He was a tall, broad, and awkward little boy from an immigrant family. His clothes were too old, too big and too dark, he was a year or two older than the rest of my Pre -1A campers, and he didn’t speak or understand English well.

Shlomo* was also strong. Very strong. Due to his poor language skills, physical violence became his primary mode of communication, and he was often found fighting stubbornly with the other boys in the class. Tragically, the boys in the class did not regard Shlomo as a peer, but rather as a dark,

brooding creature whom they tried to either provoke or avoid. If there had been a totem pole that measured social status in our bunk, Shlomo would have been all the way at the bottom.

Shlomo’s father had a disability and could not work; his mother cleaned people’s homes for a living.

One day, at the beginning of the summer, when we had no transportation and the children were supposed to be picked up by their parents, Shlomo and his younger brother Chaim were never picked up. They waited patiently with us as we spent a few hours trying to reach their parents. “Oh,” said Shlo-

mo’s mother simply, when we finally reached her, “I forgot.” Her children waited another long while until she finally arrived. They did not even seem sad or angry that they had been forgotten, only resigned.

My heart went out to little Shlomo. Beyond his angry, wild behavior, I saw a confused child who was desperate to make friends but did not know how. As his counselor, I hoped I’d be able to positively impact his life. I davened for siyata d’Shmaya

I looked for Shlomo’s strengths,

selor stopped by our room and asked for one of the boys to assist him for a few minutes, I slowly looked around the classroom, my eyes traveling up and down the rows. Boys were bouncing up and down in their seats, fingers pointing to themselves and begging, “Me! Me! Choose me! Pleeeeaase!”

“Boys,” I said, “you are all wonderful. This will be a tough decision.” I looked around again and now my eyes — followed by twenty-three pairs of eyes –rested on Shlomo. “Shlomo. Yes, I think that Shlomo Levy would be the right choice. He’s so mature, he’s already seven years old!”

The class seemed taken aback. Shlomo seemed surprised. He hesitated a bit, but then came up to the front of the classroom. When Shlomo returned after having helped the head counselor, I made a big deal about it. I called him up to the front of the room, and had him tell the class all about it. He was shy, his speech was unclear, but he slowly told the class how he helped the head counselor unload new sports equipment from his car. They stared at him with admiration.

and raced against other bunks. When we had to choose one boy to present our team for the running races, I looked around and made a big deal of choosing Shlomo to run for us. “Shlomo is the tallest in our bunk, he has the longest legs,” I told the boys, “and he’s so strong. He’s a good choice for us!”

At first, Shlomo (who seemed pleasantly surprised at being singled out and praised) ran a bit awkwardly, his movements uncoordinated and unsure. But as he gained confidence, he started running and running, gave it his all, and won the race — once, and twice, and yet again! My campers were thrilled. “Go, Shlomo, go! Go Shlomo go!” they chanted. Shlomo earned a prize from the head counselor and returned to his friends as a hero.

It was easy going after that. Shlomo had earned the respect of his bunkmates. The boys were young, and unlearned their prejudices with the ease that only five year olds can. Shlomo slowly let go of his defensive walls, as he too had not yet built up too many barriers. The pleasure of working with young, impressionable souls, like molding pliable clay!

but they were hard to find. So I resolved to focus on his age, his height and physical strength and make them very important.

“I need a strong, tall boy to take the ball down from that shelf,” I told my campers one of the first days of camp. “Shlomo!” I announced, “You’re the perfect choice. We are so lucky, boys, that Shlomo is in our bunk. Look how tall he is and how easily he reaches that shelf.”

Shlomo took the ball off the shelf with ease, his stooped shoulders straightening a bit. The boys shifted in their seats and regarded Shlomo with guarded interest, as if seeing him for the first time.

The next day, when the head coun-

Days rolled into weeks, with lots of little opportunities for me to draw out the goodness in Shlomo. Our relationship deepened. He softened. It was fascinating for me to note that much of how we communicate with each other transcends language, that our hearts carry so much more weight than the words we express. When Shlomo did get into a fight with another boy, I’d manage to calm him down. I’d wait patiently for him to string together words of broken English, as he’d tell me why he felt wronged. At times he’d burst into tears and explain that he was unfairly provoked. When incidents like that happened, I’d make it clear to all of my campers that no one — not Shlomo, nor any other boy in the class — deserved to be mistreated. I loved all my campers and looked out for all of them, but Shlomo had a special place in my heart.

Then came the Grand Camp Championship where all the bunks in our camp were pitted against each other in various sports.

We played basketball, baseball, soccer

By the end of the four weeks of camp Shlomo was one of the most highly regarded boys in our bunk. When the boys played Red Rover, they’d make sure Shlomo was on their team, as he was so strong and could easily fight his way through the opposing team’s human chain. When someone in our bunk needed help schlepping something heavy, he’d ask Shlomo for help, and Shlomo would eagerly acquiesce. When they couldn’t reach something, the boys would turn to Shlomo for help because he was so tall. As Shlomo’s confidence soared, his speech and even his gait improved; he walked around purposefully, and no one noticed anymore that he did not speak or dress like everyone else.

It’s been quite a while since I was Shlomo’s day camp counselor. Most details of that summer are but hazy memories. But the heady feeling of being able to touch a young soul so deeply and so quickly is something I will never forget. Shlomo’s face is a clearly defined image in my mind and this gentle, noble soul will always have a special place in my heart.

Another Kind of Diamond

But today he is busy with a different kind of diamond: the gift of Shabbos, the precious gift from Hashem’s treasure vault. Mr. Katz has decided to launch an exclusive Shabbos contest with amazing prizes, exclusively for children of readers of The Monsey View. The contest, designed to encourage tosfos Shabbos, involves welcoming Shabbos ten minutes early for four consecutive weeks.

“It’s the biggest segulah,” says Reb Shaul. “But don’t take it from me. Listen to this.” He plays an audio clip of Rav Elimelech Biderman. “Tosfos Shabbos… the biggest brachos come from adding onto Shabbos.” He quotes the tzaddik Rav Menachem Mendel of Rimanov: “Chazal teach us, asei Shabbos’cha chol v’al titztareich labrios. Make your Shabbos when it’s still weekday, and you won’t need help from others. It’s a bracha for children, life and wealth. The Pri Megadim says that one who prolongs Shabbos, Hashem prolongs his lifetime. The Imrei Emes of Ger used to tell petitioners, ‘First be mekabel Shabbos early and then say your kapitel Tehillim.’”

Reb Meilich repeats a story Rav Yechezkel Abramsky, zt’’l, would tell of his grandfather, the Ridvaz. One night while the Ridvaz slept, he saw the Beis Din Shel Maalah in a dream, calling out to him that the time had come for him to leave the world. The Ridvaz pleaded that he was in the middle of writing a very necessary peirush on Talmud Yerushalmi, but they replied, “You come up, someone else will finish.”

“But what about all the broken people I help and support?” protested the Ridvaz. “Who will take care of them?”

“Others will,” came the reply. “Your time has come.”

Finally, the Ridvaz said, “I am mekabel Shabbos early every week. The table is set Thursday night and I await the Shabbos Hamalkah.” Upon hearing that, the Beis Din agreed that he deserved to live. The Ridvaz awoke and merited to live and complete his sefer

“Is there anything more to say?”

comments Reb Shaul. “By adding just a few minutes to Shabbos, the gates of bracha open wide.”

It’s Monday afternoon, but the feeling here in his cozy Monsey home is all about Shabbos. “Didn’t you say today, ‘sheini b’Shabbos’? It’s all about Shabbos,” R’ Shaul asserts. “Let me tell you another story: There was a very wealthy man in Mexico who’d build massive office buildings, sell them, and turn a nice profit. While he contributed generously to the local kollelim, he himself didn’t lead an observant life. One day he decided he wants to keep Shabbos, partially — just Friday night. He’d come home from work early, his wife would light candles, he’d go to shul, have a seudah, and that was it. Shabbos day was a regular day for them.

“There was one building he invested a lot of money into, but there were no buyers. Finally, two partners from overseas started negotiating a deal. They arrived on Thursday and were hoping to get it done within the next two days. On Friday noon, the deal wasn’t ready. They needed another few hours to work out the last details. But this man got up and said, ‘I’m out of here; I need to get ready for Shabbos.’ They looked at him, unable to believe what they were hearing. The deal was almost done and here the seller wants to pause for a day! They made it very clear to him that if they don’t finalize the deal within the next few hours, they’re out. But Shabbos was coming. He said he had to go, and left. So did they. The longawaited deal was dead.

“He came home with a sense of misgiving. For so long he’d been trying to sell this building, and now, when a deal was within reach, he had just walked out. But a short while later, that area suffered a major earthquake. Many office buildings collapsed, but his building stood intact. He soon had a line of clients, including the Mexican government, who were looking to pay whatever the cost to rent or purchase the building.

“So you see, Shabbos is the source of bracha.”

Reb Shaul Katz is a diamond setter by profession. He has also given classes in diamond setting. “Some of my students came in with two left hands and walked out as professional diamond setters,” he tells The Monsey View in an exclusive interview.

The Power of Self-Listening

Imagine sitting by a window, staring out at the world like my friend’s grandmother used to. She liked to sit quietly, and when asked why she’d say, “I’m listening to myself.” While this might strike you as a bit unusual, I can assure you that it’s incredibly valuable.

The swift pace of life often leaves us feeling more emotionally overwhelmed than we can comprehend. Subtle emotions like fear, joy, anger, and resentment can linger in the back of our minds, but we often fail to recognize them because they are too overwhelming or contradict our expectations.

Think of a time you felt calm when others expected you to be angry, or you felt sad when you were supposed to act more practical. We often disregard these emotions since they are unpleasant or too complicated to fully grasp. However, disregarding them can lead to more profound issues such as anxiety and depression. Recognizing and embracing our entire

spectrum of emotions is essential for the wellbeing of our minds.

So, let’s embark on a journey toward emotional well-being. It starts with giving ourselves the gift of reflection, taking some time to hang out with our emotions. Get comfortable, maybe in your room or your favorite relaxing spot, and ask yourself, “What am I feeling right now?” Don’t be afraid to dig deep into the answer. Doing this might actually uncover hidden emotions, like extra worry or forgotten sadness.

Here is something even more profound: your body is an emotional vessel and carries your feelings. It may sound a little weird, but try asking your body how it feels: “Hey

It may sound a little weird, but try asking your body how it feels:

“Hey abdomen, what’s up? How do my shoulders feel today?”

Embracing and understanding the complex range of emotions lead to greater self-awareness and mental wellbeing.

abdomen, what’s up? How do my shoulders feel today?” Maybe your arms could be craving a hug or your heart needs some solace. Your body is constantly sending you signals about how you’re feeling. Pay attention to them and ask your body what it needs. You may be surprised by how much it may reveal.

As we explore our emotions in this manner, we’ll start to notice a sense of clarity. Anxiety might blend into anger, irritation can reshape into genuine sadness, and fears can morph into compassion. Being grumpy could simply mean we’re feeling mad, and being worried might just be our way of caring. This kind of understanding is like finding a hidden treasure, except it only entails listening to yourself.

In the midst of our bustling lives teeming with obligations and tasks, self-awareness often takes a backseat. But allow this to be a kind reminder: the power to change this lies in your hands. Dedicate a moment each day to asking: “What am I feeling right now?”

As we untangle these feelings, we’ll discover a happier and more peaceful world inside us. Life’s busyness may endure, yet perceiving things from a different lens equips us to tackle any challenge. Remember, it all starts with listening to yourself and taking care of how you feel.

Life’s busyness may endure, yet you’ll start perceiving things from a different lens and be better equipped to tackle any challenge.

Have you ever dreamed of joining Mensa, the organization meant for smart people? Good news! While membership is contingent on IQ level, “perspective is worth 80 IQ points,” as one scientist said.

WHAT IS MENSA?

Founded in England in 1946, Mensa is an international society for highly intelligent people. There’s only one criterion for joining: A high IQ, or Intelligence Quotient. The candidate must be within the highest 2% of society to qualify.

To date, Mensa boasts some 134,000 members in 100 countries. The United States is most heavily represented, with twice as many members as any other country.

One out of 50 people qualify for Mensa membership, although most never consider joining.

Mensa members are men, women, and children from age four and up, but the most common age groups are 14 to 33 and 34 to 53.

The concept of IQ was designed in 1904 by two French psychologists who wanted to determine which students need extra help in school. It was German psychologist William Stern who formulated the specific IQ method of testing, which computes mental age based on chronological age.

CAN YOU IMPACT YOUR IQ SCORE?

Studies show children may develop higher IQ capacities if they are nurtured and fed well as babies.

Stimulating mental capacity in preschool may boost IQ in elementary school – but would probably not increase the scores permanently.

RANDOM FACTS

“Mensa” is a Latin word with several meanings; mind, table, and month. Arlington, TX, is home to the American Mensa headquarters. American Mensa’s oldest member is 102; British Mensa had a 103-year-old member.

• Surprise, surprise! Research backs the notion that there may be a link between absentmindedness and genius!

• Studies show that many people who are considered geniuses have difficulty focusing on small details. It should be noted that 7.4% of Mensa members have diagnosed ADHD, compared to 4% in the general population.

ARE YOU A GENIUS?

Here are some indicators that may convince you to take the Mensa test!

You listen more than you talk.

You can process new information quickly.

You can focus on one thing for hours.

You are curious and open-minded.

You like being alone.

IQ SCALE

MEET SOME OF THE WORLD’S SMARTEST KIDS!

Teddy Hobbs, a British four-year-old, joined Mensa after scoring 139 out of 160 on the Mensa entrance exam. He taught himself to read on his own at the age of two.

Haryz Nadzim, a British child, joined Mensa at age 3. He began speaking when he was just seven months old. At age two, he would recite entire bedtime stories to himself from memory.

Alexis Martin of Phoenix, AZ, scored 160 on her Mensa entrance exam, which she took at three years old. She read books to herself at age two, and even corrected her father when he made mistakes while reading to her.

At age two, U.S.-born Elise Tan-Roberts will surprise you by reciting the names of many capital cities in the world. She recognized her written name before her first birthday and recited the alphabet from memory at 16 months.

Perhaps the youngest Mensa member, Kasha Quest of Los Angeles memorized all the elements of the periodic table and knows all 50 states of America by name, shape, and location on the map — all before age two! Her pediatrician was the one to pick up on her unusual intelligence level and sent her parents to a psychologist who conducted the test.

131+ – You can join Mensa! 137 – Bill Clinton, 42nd US President

145 – Jeff Bezos, Founder of Amazon 155 – Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla 160 – Bill Gates, CEO of Microsoft 160 – Albert Einstein’s genius IQ 180 – Binyamin Netanyahu, Israeli Prime Minister

IMAGINE STARTING AN ENTRY-LEVEL JOB THAT COULD POSITION YOU TO SUPPORT A GROWING FAMILY IN JUST 5 YEARS

.

Without going back to school.

Without working 45+ hour workweeks. Without leaving everything frum and familiar behind.

FutureCare gives you company shares, not just a salary.

Future Care and its subsidiaries are poised for substantial growth in the near future. The company's recent and forthcoming acquisitions, backed by our private equity firm, are expected to drive a significant increase in its stock value.

Since its inception in 1997, FutureCare has grown to a team of 500+ employees managing billing & finances for 200+ nursing homes. And right now, thanks to an investment by a private equity firm, company share value is about to rise significantly. This means you can join our team now, stay in a job you love, and accrue company stock as it rises in value.

Opportunities like this don’t come up every day. So while it’s always a good time to join FutureCare, now is a highly opportune time to do so.

Unique descriptions of Reb Meilech, as he energizes and elevates the thousands who come to see and hear him, let us actually feel the excitement and passion that characterizes his every word.

Open this book and prepare to be transported to a shul in Yerushalayim, a beis medrash in Bnei Brak, or alongside a blazing bonfire in Meron — surrounded by the wondrous joy of Reb Meilech’s world.
