THE SMOOTHEST ANSWERS

Why is everyone raving about the Candela? What’s so magical about it?

The Candela isn’t just the latest buzzword; it’s a revolution in laser hair removal. It’s renowned for its effectiveness across all skin tones and hair types, including those pesky fine hairs. Think of it as the gold standard— the kind of tool that medical professionals swear by.

I’ve been doing laser treatments for two years, but the hair keeps coming back. What’s going wrong?

Chances are you were using a Diode laser (gel machine), which is like comparing a toy to a powerhouse. The Candela G-Max Pro Plus is the real game-changer! It delivers dazzling results in fewer sessions, tackling even the most delicate and fine hairs with ease.

Does laser hair removal have to hurt? What’s your secret to a painless experience?

Forget the old adage—our treatments are a breeze! We use a high-tech cooling combo: Cryogen and the Zimmer device. This dynamic duo sprays a refreshing mist onto your skin before, during, and after each laser pulse, turning what used to be uncomfortable, into a surprisingly soothing experience.

+ NEWEST CANDELA MODEL

+ PAINLESS TREATMENT

+ TREATS INGROWN HAIRS

+ EXPERIENCED TECHNICIANS

How many sessions until I can say goodbye to unwanted hair for good?

Each visit brings a 10-20% reduction in hair growth. Do the math, and you’ll see how quickly those numbers add up to a smooth, hair-free you!

Safety is crucial to me. How secure is your laser treatment?

Our laser is not just FDA-approved; it’s a model of safety. Suitable for use during pregnancy with your physicians written consent, and perfectly safe while breastfeeding, you can rest assured knowing we prioritize your well-being.

Are there any hair colors or types that just don’t work with laser treatment?

Unfortunately, lasers don’t play nice with gray or white hair because they lack the pigment needed for the laser to latch onto. But for the rest, the laser works like a charm!

I have a packed schedule. How long will a session take?

Your time is precious, so we’ve got you covered. Thanks to the Candela’s lightning-fast 3-Hertz speed, your sessions are streamlined and efficient, cutting down on time so you can get back to your day.

So, what makes LASER BY AHUVA a cut above the rest?

At LASER BY AHUVA, you’ll experience top-notch Candela technology, along with a relaxing, soothing salon. We offer superior results with less discomfort and fewer sessions. Open from Sunday to Thursday, 9 AM to 11 PM, we accommodate busy schedules and cater to men with a dedicated male technician. Ahuva, a BoardCertified Physician Assistant, ensures every treatment is safe and effective. Discover where cutting-edge technology meets serenity!

BULLETIN #5

CLEANING

Important Safety Alert Regarding Oven Self-Cleaning

■ We would like to issue a safety reminder concerning the use of self-cleaning ovens, as we have responded to numerous incidents in the past involving oven fires during the self-cleaning process.

■ Please note that running the self-cleaning cycle when there is a significant amount of grease, food debris, or fat inside the oven can lead to fires. The high heat used during the self-cleaning process can ignite any residual fat or grease, potentially causing an oven fire or damaging the appliance.

■ To prevent such incidents, always ensure that your oven is thoroughly cleaned and free of any visible grease, fat, or food debris before initiating the self-cleaning cycle.

■ In one particular instance, we responded to three separate oven fire calls in a single day, all of which could have been avoided with proper preparation.

■ Simply inspecting the oven before starting the selfclean cycle can save you from significant damage and distress.

■ If you have any genuine concerns about fire safety or notice any signs of danger, please do not hesitate to contact Matzilei Aish. We are always ready to respond promptly to ensure your safety.

CUT AND PASTE

(Re: Sheet Pan Dinners, Issue 464)

Thank you for your weekly recipes! I really enjoy trying them (and even just looking at them). I know you print gorgeous full-page images of the final product, but I was wondering if it would be possible to include a small picture of the dish alongside each recipe, as well. This way, when I tear out the page to save a recipe, I can easily identify the recipe without needing to save multiple pages.

Thanks again for your magazine!

I don’t usually play the Boggle game you print, but I like to challenge myself to find your nine- or ten-letter word. Last week I found “threading.” Your featured word, “academics,” should really be disqualified because adding an s is not allowed as per your rules.

NO MORE EXCUSES

(Re: Do Your Homework, Issue 464)

I love, love, love that DIY Homework Station that you featured. I was practically salivating over those pictures. It had everything that I wanted, and was so neat, compact and inviting. Does the designer sell “homework station packages”?

What a brilliant idea, to take a daily problem like homework and create a real solution for it. Instead of excuses for not doing homework, now we have a reason to be excited to do it! And it was hilarious, so much fun to read. Content like this is why I love The Monsey View. It’s like you totally get my life.

Wishing everyone a successful school year!

DRIVE SAFELY

(Re: The Cheder Office, Issue 463)

I enjoyed reading the article debunking all the myths about how schools are run. I’ve been driving a bus in East Ramapo for many years. Here are some tips I’ve collected over that time: First, all children should have their bus passes on them so the drivers can identify them. This is especially important for preschool students.

Please do not ask the drivers for house stops, especially during the first few weeks of school when the drivers are trying to acclimate to their runs.

Please do not take time to talk to the driver. They are on very tight schedules, especially at the beginning of the year. We understand that you have concerns.

Please send a note or speak with a supervisor.

For parents of kindergarten and pre1A students, please be outside five to ten minutes before the bus is scheduled to arrive, both in the morning and afternoon. In the afternoon, please wait for your children at their designated stop. Check their bus passes, and if there is an issue give the driver a note and follow-up on the next day. Try to go down to the district to get problems fixed.

Please speak to your children about the importance of remaining seated, sharing their seat with two or three other students (depending on the bus layout), and to keep voices down so the drivers can concentrate while driving.

ALWAYS A CAMPER

(Re: Memories of Camp, Issue 458)

I attended Camp Bais Yaakov from when I was six years old until I graduated high school. My siblings all went to camp (I was the youngest), and I cried that I wanted to go too. My parents sent me though I was so young, and I loved it!

My mother worked all year to pay for us kids to go to camp.

We had no car, so for visiting day, the only option my parents had was to take a bus. The bus was expensive and took forever, so my mother would visit the first half of camp and my father came the second visiting day.

I remember that on Shabbos Nachamu everyone got a can of soda; I chose Orange Crush. (The non-Jewish staff opened the cans so we could drink it.)

I have very fond memories of camp. In particular, I remember singing the beautiful Shalom Aleichem zemiros around the dining room Friday night with Rabbi Newhouse, a”h. You felt the kedusha in the air.

I also wanted to share that I enjoy your parsha column every week. It’s just my speed — a little Torah and then an amazing story. I still can’t figure out if Y. Levenstein is a man or woman!

WHAT DO YOU DO TO UNWIND, AND WHEN

IS DOWNTIME FOR YOU?

I like to read, talk to my husband, and shower after the kids go to sleep. – A Reader

I talk to my friends on the phone. Usually on my way home from work or after supper. –B.R.

Let’s start with your second question. Downtime? Almost never! As a working mother of little ones, downtime is pretty rare, and usually late at night. When I do get a moment to myself, I actually find mending and ironing kind of relaxing. I’m definitely looking forward to the day I can sit on the porch, enjoy the cool night breeze, and maybe get back to that crochet project I started years ago, or even finish the stud art mural I once began. – E.D.

I love to do the crossword puzzle and the sudoku in the daily Hamodia. I work on them early in the morning, while drinking my coffee before everyone else wakes up. – C.D.

I unwind by taking solitary brisk walks during early morning hours. I hardly have downtime, but I take it in slivers whenever it comes up. – A Reader

I READ WHATEVER I CAN. NOVELS. THE MONSEY VIEW . RECIPE BOOKS. WHEN ALL ELSE FAILS, THE BACKS OF CEREAL BOXES. ALL THIS HAPPENS AFTER 12:00 A.M. I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT RELAXING IS JUST AS IMPORTANT TO MY MENTAL, EMOTIONAL AND PHYSICAL HEALTH AS SLEEPING. – A READER

As a member of the older generation who have married off their children, baruch Hashem, I often get this question: “How did you do it? How did you manage to raise the kids (and yes, we tried to match their outfits in those days, too), get them on the bus (no cell phones and no GPS meant an hour-long waits for a child’s bus in the morning), spend hours in the pediatrician’s waiting room, do homework with the kids, get meals on the table, help in the family business, do volunteer work, host family every Shabbos, and take care of aging parents/in-laws?” The answer is: We didn’t expect downtime. We didn’t expect “me time.” I am not a great tzaddeikes, or a special person. My generation was not brought up with the notion of unwinding or downtime. If you get to sleep before you have to get up, anything is possible. – A Reader

Downtime for me is when I relax with my baby, which I find Hashem’s way of gifting Yiddishe mammes a guilt-free way to get a bit of rest. I use the time to read, do sudoku puzzles, catch up on my voicemails or even to doze off.

– A Reader

I read The Monsey View from cover to cover. It’s my treat after I put the kids to sleep each Wednesday! – A Reader

I EAT, LISTEN TO MUSIC AND READ THE MONSEY VIEW I HAVE AROUND FIFTEEN MINUTES TO UNWIND WHEN I COME HOME FROM WORK UNTIL I NEED TO START MAKING SUPPER AND FEEDING THE KIDS. – A READER

I LISTEN TO MUSIC — MY FAVORITE PASTIME! – A READER

When all’s quiet in the house, I’ll have a cup of coffee with a treat, usually a piece of chocolate or cake, and either read something light (like The Monsey View) or schmooze with my sisters. – A Reader

To unwind, I read and read and then read some more. (Thanks to The Monsey View for my favorite read!) Occasionally, I will relax with some coloring pages, puzzles or organizing. – T.W.

I enjoy doing 1000-piece puzzles, diamond art, painting or anything crafty. I usually enjoy my downtime at night after putting the little ones to bed. – F.R.

I get up early so I can enjoy a hazelnut coffee while reading the daily Hamodia and filling in the crossword puzzle. When I need a break, I lock my bedroom door and curl up with a good book or listen to soothing music. – R.W.

WHEN ALL THE KIDS ARE FINALLY IN BED, WHICH IS QUITE LATE IN THE EVENING WITH TEENS AROUND, THAT’S MY CHANCE TO RELAX. WHILE I’M CLEANING AND STRAIGHTENING UP THE HOUSE, I LIKE TO UNWIND BY SCHMOOZING WITH A NIGHT-OWL FRIEND OR LISTENING TO INSPIRATIONAL HOTLINES FOR A SPIRITUAL BOOST. –A READER

I unwind between 3:00 and 4:00 p.m., when I get home from work with an iced coffee and The Monsey View, of course! Thanks for all the entertainment – R.B.G.

I make sure to take time for myself. Otherwise I get resentful, which obviously affects my parenting. Even if it means staying up too late and being tired the next day, I feel that it’s worth it for me to have my downtime. – A Reader

I LIKE TO SIT DOWN TO READ A BOOK, PAINT AND DRAW. – A READER

I READ AND JOURNAL EVERY DAY TO UNWIND. I ALSO MAKE SURE TO HAVE TEN MINUTES IN THE SUN EACH DAY. – S.

Downtime to me means a nice cup of coffee with a chocolate rugelah on the side, enjoyed once my work is done and the kids aren’t yet home from school. – R.W.

I like to sit outside and breathe in deeply to absorb all parts of Hashem’s world. I make time for unwinding as often as necessary. I prefer to do so early in the morning or at night, when fewer people are expected to rush by or make noise. This allows me to simply listen and hear the briah . – Bracha

I love listening to music. I go to sleep with music on, and turn it on when I get dressed in the morning. When I come home from work, I put music on again. Music is so enjoyable, and I can have it on literally 24/6. – A Reader

WHEN I WANT TO RELAX, I JOURNAL, COLOR

ADULT COLORING BOOKS, DRINK TEA OR HOT CHOCOLATE, SCHMOOZE ON THE PHONE, OR READ A GOOD BOOK. – F.S.

Every Wednesday night, after I put my kids to sleep, I sit down on the couch with ice cream and skim through The Monsey View. – Esty

I LIKE

DOING THE MONSEY VIEW’S SUDOKU. – R.F.

Although I’m a very social person, my way to unwind is with good food and something to read. Unfortunately, it usually happens after midnight. – A Reader

I UNWIND BY SEWING AND QUILTING. AFTER A LONG, HARD DAY, I LIKE TO WALK INTO MY SEWING ROOM AND TAKE SOME TIME TO SEW. –A READER

After doing my housework, I enjoy unwinding on the porch while knitting. I have made many beautiful baby blankets which my grandchildren and great-grandchildren cherish. – D.K.

Downtime can be in the early morning (insomnia style) or late at night (night owl style). Preferred activities include reading, beadwork, crocheting, Windex-ing, walking, organizing, saying Tehillim, writing letters, pool splashing and playing Boggle. – R.S.

When my toddler was little, my biggest treat was feeding her every three hours. In the most hectic times, I had the best reason to sit down with no guilt whatsoever! Now that my baby has grown, I like to sit with a coffee on the couch or take a walk. – R. Schwartz

PARSHAS KI SEITZEI

The Wayward Son

Y. Levenstein

The parsha discusses the ben sorer u’moreh, the wayward son.

The Ibn Ezra writes that the ben sorer u’moreh is like a heretic, an apikorus, since to him, the only reason Olam Hazeh exists is to indulge in pleasures. Why is the Ibn Ezra so harsh on this wayward son? True, he may be wrong for choosing to follow the ta’avos of Olam Hazeh, but is that so terrible that he deserves the title apikorus, which means he doesn’t believe in Hashem and His Torah?

IT WAS QUITE a restless place to be: the waiting area outside the operating room in a Tel Aviv hospital. Concerned family members resorted to all sorts of distractions as they waited for updates. Some played with their phones, others stared at the walls. Yet others, primarily the shomrei Torah u’mitzvos, sat with a Tehillim and used the time to daven for their dear relatives.

In one corner sat the Kuperberg family. Overcome with emotion, they davened earnestly for their father who was undergoing emergency heart surgery. He had just suffered a heart attack, and only a complicated procedure could hope to restore his health. They knew their father’s life was in serious danger.

They were in good hands, they knew, with a professional team of doctors on the case, yet they were very aware that they could rely on nobody but Hakadosh Baruch Hu alone.

Frightened and desperate, the Kuperbergs cried copiously as they recited kapitel after kapitel of Tehillim. They were so focused on their father’s precarious state that they were a bit oblivious to their surroundings and to the fact that their voices could be heard down the corridor.

“What’s going on here?” a loud voice interrupted suddenly. “This is not a shul! It’s a public space! If you want to daven, go down to the beis knesses on the first floor!”

It was Boaz, an irreligious

man in his fifties, from Tel Aviv. His wife was in the operating room too, having a simple procedure done. Something about the loud, heartfelt tefillos bothered him and awakened his animosity toward anything related to Yiddishkeit.

Boaz’s shouts brought the Kuperbergs back to reality with a thud. The oldest son stood up and turned to Boaz. In a soft voice, he said, “Sorry! I apologize that we disturbed you. What’s your name?”

His gentle approach had a calming effect. “Boaz,” the man replied tersely.

“Listen, Boaz,” Kuperberg said, “Our father is now fighting for his life in a long, complicated heart surgery. The only thing we can do is say Tehillim for his recovery. I’m sure you understand that this is the only thing that can really help our father in his precarious situation.”

His words, sincere as they were, only served to trigger Boaz further. This went against the grain of Boaz’s entire upbringing. “Do you really think that by murmuring some words of prayer you can heal your father?! It’s only thanks to the medical advancements of today that the top doctors can heal him. Your prayers make no difference at all!”

These statements of outright kefirah took the Kuperbergs by surprise.

“I see that I won’t be able to convince you just how wrong you are,” the son said to Boaz. “But we’ll try to say our Tehillim quietly now, so it won’t disturb you.”

Boaz returned to his seat and buried his face in his phone, waiting for his wife’s procedure to end. Soon, a doctor came over. Good, he thought to himself. The procedure took even quicker than the doctors expected! In another hour or two, we’ll be able to leave the recovery room and go home

But the doctor’s tone didn’t bode well. “I’m sorry to inform you,” the doctor began, “that in middle of the procedure, your wife went into septic shock. The entire team is now fighting for her life.”

“This is not a shul! It’s a public space! If you want to daven, go down to the beis knesses on the first floor!”

Boaz was stunned. “But… it was a simple procedure! How did that happen?”

“We’re sorry. This procedure is generally considered simple, but as with every surgery that involves general anesthesia, these things can happen, just as we advised you when you signed your agreement to go ahead. It’s rare, but it sometimes happens.”

The doctor pointed his finger upward. “It all depends on Him.”

The doctor turned on her heels and headed back to the operating room. “We’ll notify you as soon as there’s an update.”

“What should I do now?” Boaz screamed, hysterical.

The doctor pointed his finger upward. “It all depends on Him.”

Boaz didn’t think twice. He ran over to the Kuperbergs, who had watched the exchange, and begged, “Please! Daven for my wife too! Rus bas Tova…”

As this incident attests, even the greatest apikorus, who claims to not believe in the Borei Olam, can place his trust in Hakadosh Baruch Hu when he feels there is no hope. This proves that deep inside, he actually does believe there is a Creator. He only acts like an atheist due to his desire to live freely, with all the ta’avos in the world and without any obligation to the Torah.

The root of kefirah is following one’s desires.

Says the Ibn Ezra: A person who pursues the pleasures of this world to a great extent will inevitably become an apikorus. The only way one could possibly fulfill all his desires is by abandoning the ways of the Torah. The fact that the ben sorer u’moreh is on this path, sunken in the pleasures and frivolities of this world, is an indication that he will ultimately end up in apikorsus.

The Sweet Sound of Success

How Rabbi Yoel Greenfeld and the CanAdvance team creates foundational change for struggling kids

MARIAM FRIEDMAN

If you’ve ever had a mainstream kid who struggles in school, you know the challenge faced by so many parents: What therapy/program/tutor is right for my child? Many kids bounce from program to therapy to tutor, each promising to help, but rarely enabling the kid to graduate beyond needing their services. Kids with sensory issues, anxiety, ADHD, reading struggles, or even just an inability to sit and focus all find the classroom overwhelming, and therefore have little confidence in themselves.

Rabbi Greenfeld, a chinunch veteran with decades of experience working with kids both in and out of the classroom, saw the long-term effects of endless pullouts, tutors and therapies.

“There were so many kids who graduated eighth grade with basic classroom skills but zero confidence. I was seeing bright children who believed they were failures, and that impacted them for life.” Rabbi Greenfeld set out to change what he was seeing. “I knew that for many of these kids, if we could get to the root of the issue, we could set them up to succeed on their own, without or with much less support,” says Rabbi Greenfeld.

Rabbi Greenfeld reached out to chinuch experts across the globe, searching for answers. From there, CanAdvance was born. CanAdvance combines the Tomatis® Method with the Neuralign and Interactive Metronome methodologies, for a program that builds a foundation for success. As the first frum, heimish Certified Level IV Consultant and trainer of the Tomatis® Method, Rabbi Greenfeld has seen the Tomatis® Method explode in popularity. “We have one of the largest Tomatis® Method consultancies globally. I’m grateful to the Aibishter that we can serve so many yiddishe kinder and that’s why I’m training othersso even more people can be helped. The demand is incredible, from both kids and adults.”

The Tomatis® Method is based on the research of Dr. Alfred Tomatis, who discovered the powerful connection between the ear and the brain. “What your ear hears, your brain can process. But if there’s a disconnect between the two, or the brain isn’t processing the audio input properly, then the brain can’t absorb new information,” Rabbi Greenfeld says. Rabbi Green-

feld has seen firsthand how solving the audio-neural connection transforms kids’ lives. When the foundation is strong, the brain can learn.

Rabbi Greenfeld tells us about a recent case: “A father brought his 7-year-old in. The girl thrived, and the father told me he was envious. ‘I’m 28 years old’, he said, ‘and I can barely spell. I have a hard time with reading comprehension. My job as a contractor means I’m constantly reading blueprints, but I struggle to understand what I’m seeing and usually just rely on pictures.’ I was happy to inform him that the Tomatis® Method is not just for kids. After one round of Tomatis® Method and one of Neuralign, he saw tremendous gains. He told me he’s earning more money because he’s making fewer mistakes, he’s happier and confident, and he can understand what he reads and hears like never

The Tomatis® Method concept is simple: By rewiring audio-neural pathways, you enable your brain to absorb information that comes in from the ear, which includes audio input and spatial/

balance input. “Take reading, for example,” explains Rabbi Greenfeld. “You have to be able to hear and decode the sounds of the letters and words, you need to keep track of where on the page you’re up to, and you need to use your brain to understand and process what you’re reading.” For some kids, so much brain power is used on the first two tasks that actually understanding the words they’re reading feels totally out of reach.

What does the CanAdvance program look like?

The first step is a listening test to evaluate the person’s audio-neural processing.

Then, a customized audio track is created. The track is 14 hours long, to be listened to for one hour a day for two weeks.

After a two-week break, there is a reevaluation, to track progress.

Another customized 14 hour track is created, followed by another break and another reevaluation.

After 3-4 rounds, most kids and adults have completed the program and are seeing incredible results.

Based on the specific person’s needs, the final round is sometimes replaced with Neuralign for reading help.

Finally, the last round is Interactive Metronome, a program that combines audio and movement for total-body audio-neural integration

CanAdvance opens up a new world for these kids. The program is enjoyable for participants, and involves listening to specialized musical tracks that train the brain to automatically focus on important aural cues. “We believe that progress should be easy to see and easy to track. That’s why we’ve built a number of progress evals into the program, so parents know exactly what’s been gained so far,” Rabbi Greenfeld explains.

In conjunction with the Tomatis® Method, CanAdvance offers the Neuralign and Interactive Metronome programs. “Neuralign is so unique, because it recognizes that reading is so much more than just putting together letter sounds. It is a full-body task that requires a lot of unconscious skills.” Neuralign sets the foundation for reading by integrating skills such as spatial awareness, decoding, audio processing and many other fundamental skills. This enables the brain to focus on reading.

“We had a sweet 8-year-old who just graduated the program,” Rabbi Greenfeld says. “He went from struggling to reading fluently, advancing two grade levels in eight months. I asked him what the best part was. He told me he loved Neuralign, because in addition to being able to read fluently, he went from barely watching his friends play chess to beating them all! Neuralign enabled him to focus and concentrate. And, because he saw he was succeeding, he was motivated to keep trying, and picked up chess.”

CanAdvance gives mainstream kids and adults the foundation they need to progress. In the words of a principal of a heimishe mosad, “We’ve been blown away by what we’ve seen. Girls who were in special ed classrooms last year are now starting the new year with their peers in regular, mainstream classes.” Rabbi Greenfeld has seen the same. “We’ve seen kids go from being highly medicated and facing expulsion, to being excellent students who no longer need medication.” Rabbi Greenfeld and his team are proud of their graduates, who frequently find themselves no longer needing therapy or tutoring. Discover the sweet sound of success with CanAdvance.

It’s the difference between hearing and listening.

Thanks to the Tomatis Method, Chaim learned how to process what he was hearing- and that enabled him to listen to what his rebbi said.

The Tomatis Method uses audio to develop and rewire audio-neural pathways. When you can process what you hear, you can succeed!

Discover CanAdvance: When mainstream kids struggle, it’s frequently due to a deeper issue. We specialize in the Tomatis Method,

reinforced by methodologies that target reading and timing. This helps kids learn to process what they hear, so they can listen and learn. By retraining the brain to properly

Texas Drought Alleviated After TriState Yeshiva Students Daven for Rain

Just hours after a group of yeshiva students from the New York/New Jersey area prayed for rain at the request of a Texas farmer, the parched area was inundated with more than two inches of rain, ending a drought that had lasted for several months.

The incident took place on August 27, when world traveler and writer Shloime Zionce joined Machaneh Retzufos, a learning and travel camp for yeshiva students, for a visit to the border shared by Texas and Mexico. Zionce met with the nearly 50 members of the camp in Eagle Pass, Texas, choosing the town because the border wall built by Texas Governor Gregg Abbott ends within its borders. Zionce spoke about the difficulties of illegal immigration as the group walked near the Rio Grande River, not realizing that they were trespassing on private property until they were stopped by its owner, Magali Urbina.

“Someone alerted her that we were there and, originally, she thought we were migrants,” said Zionce.

Zionce apologized to Urbina, and the conversation turned to the border difficulties and illegal immigration. Urbina shared that she has had dead bodies washing up on her property from the Rio Grande, and that others trying to enter the United States illegally in Eagle Pass have died of heat stroke on her farm. She also told the group that the area hadn’t seen any rain in five months, with the drought devastating her Heavenly Farms, leaving the branches of its pecan trees bare.

Acknowledging the special connection Jews have with G-d,

Urbina asked her visitors if they could pray for rain. The group was more than happy to recite Tehillim, with Zionce delivering an impromptu English-version mi shaberach for rain, while Monsey resident Yisroel Moshe Rokowosky spoke about Eliyahu Hanavi’s tefillos on Har Carmel bringing a drought-ending rain in biblical times. Even with the skies looking bright blue and no rain in the forecast, Urbina thanked her visitors for their prayers, exchanging phone numbers with one member of the San Antonio-based camp and with Zionce.

Later that night when Zionce returned to his Houston home, located more than five hours away from Eagle Pass, he received an emotional text from Urbina.

“It rained for about an hour,” wrote Urbina. “This hasn’t happened in four or five months. I feel so loved by G-d I want to cry. Thank you and thank G-d. I’m grateful for meeting you all today.”

Eagle Pass received several inches of rain over the next few days, leaving Zionce and Camp Retzufos grateful to see how their field trip to the border had turned into a kiddush Hashem

“I think everyone was shaken up in a good way and very inspired,” said Zionce. “You daven, and you hope it is going to work, and when you see it happen, it’s very special.”

County Legislature Honors Volunteers for Arizona Rescue

Well-deserved accolades were the theme of the day on September 4, as the Rockland County Legislature honored both Chaverim of Rockland and Hatzolah Air for their joint efforts in the incredible rescue of Baltimore resident Tzion Maron last month.

As previously reported in The Monsey View, the eight-year-old vanished at the tail end of a family visit to Lava River Cave in Flagstaff, Arizona. When local rescuers failed to locate the boy, Maron’s mother contacted Chaverim coordinator Yossi Margaretten, who together with Hatzolah Air’s Eli Rowe, had a group of volunteers in the air and on their way to Arizona in just four hours. It took members of Chaverim’s Search and Rescue team approximately 90 minutes to find Maron, alive and well, near the cave’s entrance.

Legislators and local officials gathered at the Allison-Parris

County Office Building in New City to recognize the volunteers, who received certificates of commendation from County Legislator Aron Wieder bearing the words, “In grateful appreciation for services rendered to the county of Rockland and beyond.”

Wieder noted that Chaverim of Rockland’s volunteers are well known for their abilities, adding that they spend many hours training in challenging areas.

“Our local volunteers dropped everything to search for a boy who was missing more than 2,000 miles from Rockland,” said Wieder. “Simply put, they care.”

Rockland County Sherriff James Falco recalled how his counterpart in Flagstaff had expressed disbelief that a group of out-of-towners could succeed where his veteran searchers had failed. Coconino County Sheriff Jim Driscoll warned that the prognosis was grim amid cold temperatures, rain, and difficult terrain, but Falco had reiterated his faith in the volunteers, expressing his full confidence in their abilities.

Echoing Falco’s heads-up to Driscoll that Chaverim might not look like the typical rescuers, Rockland County District Attorney Tom Walsh noted that as he looked around the room at the volunteers, he saw the faces of Rocklanders who care deeply about not just members of their own community, but the entire nation. Paraphrasing the words of a song he remembered from his youth, Walsh said, “There is no valley deep enough, river wide enough, mountain high enough that would keep Chaverim from doing their job, so Chaverim, thank you so much.”

Chaverim Halts Shocking Scam in Real Time, Limiting Victim’s Losses

A massive search launched by Chaverim of Rockland last week had the volunteer group stopping a phone scam as it was unfolding, saving a local resident from being duped out of $3,000 by someone pretending to be a police officer.

The incident took place on September 5, when a woman received a phone call by someone who claimed to be a detective, with the number of the Ramapo Police Department appearing on the victim’s caller ID. Telling the woman that there was suspicious activity on her bank account, the caller instructed her to withdraw $5,000 from her bank account

and to use the money to buy gift cards at a specific CVS store, warning her that she would be arrested if she failed to comply.

SEMINARY

Thinking that she was speaking with an actual police officer, the woman made the withdrawal and went to buy the gift cards, but the large purchase raised red flags for the CVS clerk, who asked the woman for her ID, which she didn’t have. After initially reaching out to her husband to bring her identification to the store, the woman decided to return home, but the scammer, who was still on the phone with his victim, instructed her to go to a different location where she could buy the cards without needing any documentation.

Concerned by the call he had received from his wife, her husband contacted Chaverim who sent members out to canvas local stores, in addition to deploying drones and camera units to search for the woman in surveillance footage. She was eventually spotted by a Chaverim member leaving the Nanuet Sephora store with a large quantity of gift cards. While she had, unfortunately, already given the serial numbers on $2,000 worth of cards to the scammer, she still had the remaining $3,000 worth of cards in her hands, and it took Chaverim members time to convince her that she wouldn’t be arrested for not supplying the “detective” with the remaining serial numbers.

With gift card scams becoming increasingly common over the past year, the Federal Trade Commission continues to warn the public that no legitimate business, government agency or utility company will ever ask for payment in the form of a store gift card. Additionally, they caution people to be leery of callers who demand urgent payment, inform their potential victims to buy a specific gift card at a specific location, tell their victims they have won a prize that can be released for a small fee, or ask for any gift card serial and PIN numbers.

If you or someone you know has been the victim of a gift card scam, contact the gift card company and the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.

Felder Calls on Electeds To End Campus Antisemitism

With the new school year underway, Senator Simcha Felder sent a strong message to elected officials, demanding that they issue an ultimatum to New York colleges and universities requiring them to implement independent oversight to ensure the safety of their Jewish students, or risk losing funding.

On-campus antisemitic episodes reached alarming rates over the past year, with Jewish students subjected to unprecedented harassment and intimidation. In a September 5 letter sent to Governor Kathy Hochul, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and New York City Mayor Eric Adams, Felder said that monitors are needed to guarantee that schools are doing their part to protect Jewish students, and that those that fail to take the appropriate actions should lose any city, state or federal funding that they are currently receiving.

“It is incumbent upon us, as leaders, to weed out the hotbeds of hate and violence,” wrote Felder. “All decent New Yorkers expect that you will take these necessary steps at once.”

Chapter 10

Recap: Mr. Stitzer tells the Blums that the Nazis are planning to liquidate the ghetto the next day.

Dawn, September 1, 1942

Rachel and her family hide in the ceiling, shivering with fear, cramped in a small area where all they can do is lie flat on their stomachs.

Suddenly, there is a loud rap on the front door. Then another. And another.

Finally, a crash.

Two Nazi soldiers, accompanied by four husky Ukrainian thugs, smash the large glass window of the storefront. Once inside, they make their way past the shards of glass and on to the door leading to the back room where Rachel and her family are hiding.

Up in the ceiling hideout, the Blums are terror-stricken. They hear another crashing sound. Then they hear the door being hacked open with an ax. In seconds, they hear the door fall to the floor with a loud thud.

There is yelling and shouting in German and Ukrainian. “All Jews out! All Jews out!”

Just a few feet above the shouting murderers, they dare not breathe.

“Jews out! Jews out!”

Rachel is afraid to even twitch.

The intruders can be heard crashing around below, shouting and cursing. Finally, after what seems like an eternity, they leave. There is dead silence for a few long moments. In the silence, Rachel can clearly hear the not-so-distant sounds outside: trucks, gunfire, shouts, screams. More gunfire.

Ludmir is in chaos.

* * * * *

In a scene reminiscent of the chaos taking place all over Nazi-occupied Europe, the Yidden of Ludmir are rounded up: men, women, the elderly and children. In lines of five to eight abreast, the crowd stretches as far as the eye can see. Everybody presses tightly together, united in their suffering. Side by side they march. Gnarled, elderly Yidden alongside young, erect workers, intellectuals, and simple folk.

YAAKOV ASTOR

In the silence, Rachel can clearly hear the not-so-distant sounds outside: trucks, gunfire, shouts, screams

They march — a veritable army of men, women and children, the strong, the ill and the weak, all completely helpless.

The sky is clear and blue, not a cloud in sight. It is nature at its best. The earth is in full bloom. The sun pours down its bountiful rays and bathes the world in a golden glow. But beneath the serene aquamarine skies, the hapless Jewish victims march inexorably toward their final destination, Piyatidne.

For the next two weeks, the Nazis — with the help of the Ukrainians — massacre Ludmir’s Jews. According to estimates, about 18,000 people are slaughtered: 4,000 in the pits near the jail in Ludmir, and 14,000 in three huge pits in nearby Piyatidne (of them, 9,000 in the first pit, 3,000 in the second pit, and 2,000 in the third pit).

Some Jews being led to Piyatidne attempt escape. Most of them are caught and taken to the prison and from there to the killing fields of Piyatidne. The walls of the jail are covered in writing: “Avenge the Jewish blood that has been spilled!”

During this entire time, Rachel and her family hide in the attic, never once coming down.

* * * * *

Like many places in Europe, Ludmir had a rich Jewish history, serving as home to a Jewish community since at least the 1200s. Among its notable gedolim over the centuries was Rabbi Yom Tov Lipman Heller, author of the Tosfos Yom Tov commentary on Mishnayos, who was chief rabbi of the town from 1634 to 1643. He was one of the chief students of the famous Maharal of Prague, one of the greatest gedolim of the modern era, whose renown reached non-Jewish circles, due in part to rumors that he had created a golem, a non-human giant made out of clay that protected the Yidden of Prague. In later years, a different gadol was once asked if it was really true that the Maharal made the golem. “I don’t know about the golem,” the gadol replied, “but I’m amazed he made the Tosfos Yom Tov!”

Ludmir’s fame and prestige was by no means limited to the great Tosfos Yom Tov. Rav Dovid ben Shmuel HaLevi, author of the Turei Zahav, or the Taz as it is commonly referred to, one of the seminal commentaries on halacha, was born into a prominent rabbinic family in Ludmir. Many of the town’s inhabitants were victims of marauding Cossacks during the infamous years of Tach V’tat (1648–1649). Indeed, the classic Turei Zahav was written while its venerated author was on the run from the bloodthirsty Cossacks.

The Jewish population of Ludmir declined in the next century, reaching a low of only 340 people in a 1784 census. Nevertheless, it gradually became repopulated with Yidden as the movement of the Baal Shem Tov and his disciples gained momentum in the eighteenth century.

Around that time, a contingent from Ludmir persuaded Rabbi Shlomo of Karlin, disciple of the Maggid of Mezeritch (himself the chief disciple of the Baal Shem Tov) and Rabbi Aaron of Karlin to settle there. He gained fame in Ludmir as one

of the movement’s first baalei mofsim, and was referred to by his disciples as the “little Baal Shem.”

In 1792, as the Russians were driving Polish troops out of Ludmir, he was shot by a Russian-Cossack soldier as he prayed fervently in front of the aron (tradition has it that it happened just as his state of dveikus was broken by a talmid who was trying to get his attention to save him). He died a few days later of his wounds.

In the 1800s, Ludmir was also the hometown of the Ludmirer Moid, or the “Maiden of Ludmir,” Chanah Rochel Verbermacher. Although the facts of her story are shrouded in mystery, she was known as a wonder-working woman who attracted a number of followers in the manner of chassidish rebbes. She used a large inheritance to build a shtiebel (the gornshtibl, or secondstory little synagogue), which stood through World War I. Women and men alike would come to her for tefillos and advice, which she would share modestly from behind a curtain.

By the twentieth century, Ludmir had attracted many different chassidish groups, including those of Karlin, Lubavitch, Kotsk, Ishbitz and Radzhin. The latter group counted among its leaders Rabbi Gershon Henoch Leiner, famous for among other things claiming to have rediscovered the chilazon, the small sea creature used to make the royal blue string used in tzitzis. The tradition identifying the chilazon had been lost since the times of the Gemara. Rabbi Leiner, who was a master not only of the revealed and hidden texts of Torah but with the science of his day as well, claimed to have rediscovered it and made convincing arguments in support. He died in 1891, but even as a little girl, Rachel remembered how her father and his friends spoke reverently of him. Indeed, her father was named Gershon Henoch after the Rebbe of Radzhin.

Interestingly, while many chassidish groups had a presence in Ludmir, none of the rebbes of these groups actually lived there. Rather, they would periodically visit the town to give encouragement and inspiration to their chassidim

World War I devastated Ludmir, like it did countless other Jewish towns in Eastern Europe. Retreating Russian troops set part of the town on fire and committed terrible acts of bloodshed.

After World War I, Ludmir officially became part of the newly recreated Poland. It was a time of relative prosperity. However, it was also a time of confusion, as competing ideologies like Communism, Zionism and Secularism made inroads, especially with the youth. It was a strange mixture: Even as many of these youths embraced ideologies foreign to and even in open opposition to traditional Torah values, they were still very Jewish in look, culture, speech and lifestyle. Nevertheless, the forces of assimilation were as evident in Ludmir as everywhere else in Eastern Europe.

By the 1930s, the majority of Ludmirs inhabitants were Yidden, about 22,000 at the time of the war. Most lived apart from the non-Jews, with many of the Yidden running small farms on the outskirts of town.

But now, less than two weeks before Rosh Hashana of 1942 (September 12), the rich Jewish life of Ludmir was about to become nothing more than a memory.

Q: What weighs one or two hundred pounds but cannot be moved by a pack of wild horses?

A: A sleeping teen in the morning, of course! However, as Yiddishe kinderlach, we strive to rise above the desire to sleep in, even when every bone and sinew begs for a few more winks. In honor of the new zman, I’ve been privileged to hear from a group of giborei k’ari, boys and bachurim who fight the good fight like lions every fartugs to start their day the yeshiva bachur way. They’re up in time to daven and learn — and get to reap the benefits of their triumph all day long.

CHANA GLUCK

What time do you usually go to sleep?

SRULY: Between 9:00 and 10:00 p.m.

DOVID: Around 9:30 p.m., sometimes even 9:00 p.m.

YISROEL CHAIM: About 11:00 p.m.

YANKY: It’s different every night. I try to be in bed by 10:00 p.m. but I usually get there closer to 10:20 or 10:30.

DOVY: It depends.

When do you usually wake up?

SRULY: 6:00 a.m.

DOVID: 5:30 a.m.

YISROEL CHAIM: 5:45 a.m.

YANKY: 6:00 a.m.

DOVY: Around 6:00 a.m.

Who wakes you in the morning?

SRULY: My alarm clock.

DOVID: My alarm clock or my father.

YISROEL CHAIM: My father.

YANKY: An alarm clock.

DOVY: I have an alarm clock, but it’s too easy to snooze it, which is where my father comes into the picture…

Does waking up work on the first try?

SRULY: I snooze around three or four times for five minutes.

DOVID: It depends if I’m still tired.

YISROEL CHAIM: Yeah, my father pulls my blanket off, and I can’t sleep any more even if I want to.

YANKY: I always hear the alarm, but I sometimes snooze it for five or ten minutes.

DOVY: Usually. It starts the night before when I make the decision to wake up on time, and because of that, go to sleep on time.

Sinister Snooze

“Hakol

kol Yaakov v’hayadayim yedei Eisav.”

The words of this pasuk hint at the voice of the alarm clock and the hands that hit snooze!

One smart bachur said that he uses an alarm clock without a snooze button, because the snooze button is a recipe for disaster.

What do you drink before you leave the house?

SRULY: Coffee or water.

DOVID: There’s coffee in cheder so I don’t drink anything at home.

YISROEL CHAIM: A cup of water.

YANKY: Water.

DOVY: Two cups of water and then a coffee. The water really freshens me up.

Bachur Beware

Another bachur relies on his older brother to wake him. His brother relies on his alarm clock. But when big bro sleeps through his alarm, two bachurim are late!

What do you find most satisfying about waking up early?

SRULY: I enjoy going to sleep early and waking up early, because then I have more energy. Also, it feels good to make it to the bus on time. But the best feeling is davening with minyan in cheder

DOVID: I feel calm and my head is clear.

YISROEL CHAIM: Being able to learn before davening

YANKY: I have time to go to the mikvah, and I learn better.

DOVY: It changes my day. You go out on the street, and the air is fresh and clean in a way that it isn’t usually all day and even at night.

What’s the hardest part?

SRULY: The achrayus of going to sleep early enough so I’m well rested the next day. When I jump around at recess and schmooze at lunch I feel rested, but when we learn, I get tired. But I come home late, and I need my space before I go to bed, so it’s hard to go to sleep earlier than I normally do.

DOVID: To actually get up!

YISROEL CHAIM: Getting out of bed. It pays to wake up early, you can daven better and the whole day is better, but getting out of bed is very hard.

YANKY: To get out of bed.

DOVY: Getting up. And going to sleep on time. Waking up at dawn is such an important thing, it changes the whole day. Whoever hasn’t yet tried it won’t understand, but it really changes the mood of the day, the learning and even the time spent with friends. That’s why the yetzer hara tries very hard to talk us into staying under our covers. It takes mesirus nefesh to get up!

What happens if you miss the bus?

SRULY: I take the next bus with my brother. I’m more rested and learn better when that happens, but I feel bad about it. If I come late to cheder once a week, I’ll need a note from home. If it happens a second or third time, the rebbi is not happy about it, and I also don’t get to daven with minyan. There was a time after Yom Tov that it was harder for me to wake up early, because I fell asleep later, at around twelve or one o’clock. My rebbi asked me about it, and I told him that I was feeling fine and taking melatonin to help me fall asleep, and there was nothing more I could do about it. He told me that I just have to try my best.

DOVID: I get a ride with my father.

YISROEL CHAIM: I look for a ride.

YANKY: There’s a bus for the boys a year younger than me that comes fifteen minutes after mine. B’’h I’ve never missed my bus.

DOVY: If I have cash, there’s a danger of it being spent on a taxi… Otherwise I’ll walk to the shul where my mashgiach davens to get a ride with him.

Wakeup Tip

Calling the human brain a computer is insulting; our gray matter is capable of so much more. A tried and proven tip to waking up on time is simply programming our brains to do it. Actions are fueled by thoughts, right? Glance at that bedside clock, note the time, and tell yourself three times: “It’s 10:30 p.m. now; I want to wake up at 6:00 a.m.” Your brain will wake you at six-oh-oh. Try it. It works.

What Mothers Say:

NAOMI:

“My son comes home depleted. He wants space, and a lot of it. This need for space will disappear as soon as his mother reminds him that bedtime has come (and gone). This is the time he will remember that he in fact does want to share everything that happened in those twelve long hours away from home.

“But along with said space, my son also wants autonomy over his schedule! He doesn’t want anyone to remind him how late it is, and that all too soon his alarm clock will be ringing to start the cycle all over again. And we, as mothers, need to perform this delicate dance of giving our boys their well-deserved respect, space and listening ear they need, along with gentle direction.”

SURI:

“My son has no patience to ‘go to sleep.’ He says, ‘No one wants to go to sleep, even though when you do sleep, you don’t want to wake up!’ He procrastinates until I eventually find him fast asleep on the couch or a couple of chairs — fully clothed from hat to shoes.”

BINA:

“Thankfully, my son makes sure to be in bed early when he needs to wake up early the following morning. Honestly, getting used to this schedule was hard at first, but eventually, he started loving it. He’s always telling me how magnificent it is to watch the sunrise and wait for his bus on the quiet streets. Baruch Hashem, most of the time he enjoys the experience.”

PENCIL DRAWER

CHAYA BRENNER

I once sat at a formal meeting when I noticed one of the women sipping from a cup printed with the words, “Currently caffeinating.” I thought, that’s my kind of person! Then I noticed the tea bag tag hanging over the side of the cup.

Honestly, it’s hard for me to understand how someone could drink something as plebeian as tea from a cup specifically designed to hold something as awesome as coffee. It was the first time I realized that not everybody treats coffee with the respect it deserves. I just couldn’t figure it out. Doesn’t every other human need coffee to get them out of bed? To get them through their day?

This question set me off on a mission to find out about the relationship others have with this miracle in a mug. Here’s what I learned.

To start, I reached out to CHANY to ask about her daily coffee routine. She owns a simple coffee machine with a glass coffee pot. Her husband puts in the coffee grounds in the morning and sets the machine to brew. He leaves the house after his cup of joe, and when she wakes up a bit later, it’s to the heavenly aroma of freshly brewed coffee. Her machine is set to keep the coffee hot for two hours, so all she needs to do is pour and enjoy. Chany enjoys two 16-ounce cups of coffee each day with no sweetener, and just a splash of milk or almond milk. Occasionally she’ll have a square or two of 82% chocolate with it. On a day that she needs more fortification, she’ll make herself tea later in the day.

“You can’t compare the taste of freshly brewed coffee to instant, or even Keurig coffee,” Chany claims. “It’s fresh. It’s bold. It’s delicious.”

Chany’s coffee is so beloved that she gave out coffee essence for mishloach manos and got rave reviews from family and friends. For Pesach she ups the fresh factor by roasting and grinding her own coffee beans. She says the rich flavor and aroma is unmatched.

I figured ESTHER would be perfect as my next interviewee, because she’s the exact opposite of Chany.

“I hate coffee. The smell of it. The taste of it. The buzz after drinking it. I don’t enjoy waking up and smelling the coffee. But no worries,” she adds. “If you need coffee when you come visit, it’s all good. My husband really enjoys his coffee. We have instant coffee. We have K cups in every flavor and strength. We have foam cups. We have mugs.”

Believe it or not, I still

find it within me to uphold my friendship with Esther despite our very different outlook on something as fundamental as coffee. The sacrifices we make…

I’m draining the last drop of my second cup for the day when I decide to call BASSY to mull all this over with her.

“When I wash negel vasser, it’s only because I know that there’s coffee coming,” she says. “One day, when my children grow up and world peace is established and my laundry mountain turns into a laundry molehill, I will go to sleep early. And then I want to see if I’m capable of waking up and starting my day without coffee. But for now, I reach for my coffee as soon as I open my eyes.”

Bassy says she has one to two cups of coffee each day with milk and no sugar. She enjoys her coffee in a 12-ounce pa per cup, preferably with a fun coffee quote on it, such as “Pick me up” or “No, not yet, closer, almost there, ready.” On a regular day she’ll drink instant, but when she needs something stronger, such as on Sundays, she’ll make herself a Nespresso to get her brain to reboot. She’s taken to occasionally lounging with socks that say on the sole, “If you can read this, bring me coffee,” in hopes that her teens will get the hint (they haven’t yet). Until then, there are children to raise and world peace to negotiate and laundry to conquer.

“Coffee? Of course I’ll talk to you about coffee,” SIMI tells me, cradling a steaming cup.

Simi enjoys two or three cups of coffee each day in a paper cup with a lid. Yes to milk, no to sugar. First coffee of the day is savored on its own. Her second and third cups are usually accompanied by something tasty and preferably homemade, such as cinnamon rugelach or a

cappuccino muffin. She drinks Taster’s Choice or Green Mountain Breakfast Blend from her Keurig.

Simi shows off a coffee mug that she recently received as a just-because gift from her sister. It’s a speckled mug with a soft baby pink handle that says, “O.C.D. Obsessive Coffee Disorder.” It hasn’t been toiveled yet, but she enjoys having it on display in her cabinet.

CHAVA tells me that for her, coffee is so much more than a caffeine buzz. “It’s a chance for me to pause in my hectic day and drink something warm and sweet. It’s my mini self-care routine.” I love that mindset and hope to make it my own!

HADASSAH treats her coffee routine with the gravity it deserves. “I’d love to say something witty, but coffee is serious business,” she says. “No kidding around here.”

She hands me a pen and paper to write down all of her coffee preferences because, y’know, research needs to look official. The top of the notepad is printed with the words, “Mom’s got a latte do today.” I’m sure it makes her to-do list easier to deal with.

Hadassah’s coffee happens in a 12-ounce paper cup with a lid two or three times over the course of her busy day. If she doesn’t have any cups left, she’ll use her 20-ounce glass mug, but then she needs to wash it. (At least she has 8 extra ounces of caffeine to give her the energy to do so.) She stirs in agave syrup or monk fruit sweetener instead of regular sugar because she’s trying to lose weight. But she won’t compromise on milk. It’s red milk only because a coffee with blue milk is, she says, “is a waste of perfectly good coffee.”

After seven rounds of phone tag, I’m grateful to finally get to hear RISSY’S voice.

“I drink quite a unique coffee,” she warns me. “I’m gluten free, and while not many people know this, Taster’s Choice has barley

in it. Every Motzei Pesach, I stock up on many jars of Pesach’dig coffee to last me throughout the rest of the year. I’m also off sugar, so I have my coffee with honey and skim milk.” Rissy has her first cup bright and early in the morning and a second one before the kids come home, when she sits down to her cup of joe with a Landau’s nut bar. Occasionally, she’ll drink a third cup right before she serves supper.

HAVE COFFEE, WILL TRAVEL

One of the most pressing issues plaguing frum Yidden when on the road is how to ensure that they can get their caffeine no matter where life takes them. Chayala says that she stocks up on JJ Cappuccino or Aromaville iced coffee in a can when she travels, because they’re shelf stable. Michal told me that they have a dedicated electric kettle that’s compact enough to lug when traveling and will give them hot water within 90 seconds. They take along coffee and frozen milk to last them through their vacation. Blimy says that Golden Flow’s shelf stable milk has been a game-changer for her. Hot water is easy to find, and with shelf stable milk, she doesn’t have to take her coffee black anymore.

Let’s Elul.

All this talk of coffee is giving me cravings, but I have to talk about mugs for a minute. Whenever I’m in Homegoods, Amazing Savings or Macy’s, I love to check out the mugs with quotes to see if there’s something I haven’t seen yet. Here are some of my favorite ones:

For that kind of day.

…and will hopefully last longer than the caffeine.

All bets are off before my fix.

My caffeinedeprived dragon has been vanquished… for now.

Yes, I’m also a teacher, not just a coffee lover.

Never tried it before!

Don’t expect me to do anything on my own!

Ah, that explains it.

See, I told you I’m not addicted!

There’s no other feasible explanation Exactly!

COFFEE BREAK

Although some lucky women have an entire station dedicated to their beloved wake-me-up, pick-me-up, keep-me-up drink, I did some research for the rest of us regular folks who don’t have that much kitchen space to spare.

This coffee station is compact on the counter and easy on the wallet. Extra bonus: It’s visually appealing and has a space for everything you need for a quick coffee fix. Many variants of this product can be found in outlet or home goods stores anywhere.

Want a coffee machine but don’t want to sacrifice a ton of space for it? The Keurig K-Mini is 4.5 inches wide and comes in several colors to match (or clash) your kitchen. I have this one, and it fits in the narrow strip of counter between my milchig sink and counter divider. I don’t feel like I’m giving up any kitchen real estate for it, and it’s a steady, stable reminder that coffee is always an option.

If you’re the privileged owner of a Nespresso or other coffee machine, you can get a pods drawer that serves as a base for the coffee machine. This way, your pods are organized, visible, and right where you need them.

Whichever way you coffee, here’s to a day filled with warmth, sweetness and sufficient caffeine!

A Shidduch Finalized on Day #40

L’chaim – in the zechus of the Ribnitzer

No parent should ever have to go through the excruciating pain we experienced, so I hope you can’t relate… But my feelings were intense. Very. You see, we were looking into shidduchim for our Shloimy* for close to a decade!

We tried everything. When Shloimy turned 27, we decided to get the zechus of the Ribnitzer Rebbe, zy”a, on our side. So many stories are told of yeshuos during his lifetime and after his passing. Maybe we would be zocheh too?

We signed up to Tehillim Kollel.

For the next 40 days, in the predawn hours every morning, the entire sefer Tehillim was earnestly recited on his behalf. Tehillim Kollel’s messengers added a special request that Shloimy merit finding his zivug soon.

On Day 41, I called Tehillim Kollel with the exciting news.

“To tell you the truth,” I began, “we did many segulos, and I’m not in Shamayim to say that ‘this’ did it. But clearly, the zechus of daily Tehillim, the Ribnitzer Rebbe, zy”a, and tzedakah for the special yungerleit in the Tehillim Kollel minyanim, played a serious role in our long-awaited yeshuah. Shloimy did a beautiful shidduch!”

*Name has been changed.

Have the zechus of the heilige Ribnitzer Rebbe, zy”a, during the Yemei Ratzon and yahrtzeit, Isru Chag Sukkos!

Sefer Tehillim in Ribnitz – recited for you daily.

Fantastic Fixes!

C.G. HOFFMAN

If you’ve ever been fortunate enough to get your hands on the first shipment of the legendary Franczoz doughnuts after Pesach, then you know: You’re either a diehard fan of chocolate-covered doughnuts, or a diehard fan of powdered sugar doughnuts. The first burning question we had for the Franczoz bakery company was: Which version reigns supreme? To answer our doughnut question and other important bakeryrelated queries, we turned to the Franczoz family themselves.

Founded by Reb Moshe Franczoz and his wife Faigy, who met and married in Europe after the Holocaust, the bakery has been in business since 1946, when the Franczoz family arrived in America.

New Beginnings

“My mother was born in 1947, shortly after my grandparents came to America,” says Mrs. Lefkowitz, granddaughter of the Franczoz couple.

Her sister, Mrs. Simsowitz, contributes a family legend. “When she was three weeks old, she was put into a drawer in the shop, and our grandmother went back to work right next to her!”

When the Franczoz couple arrived in America, their only asset was a seemingly limitless capacity for hard work, and the small network of family and landsleit who helped each other out. They came with seven dollars in their pockets, of which they spent four on a taxi to Williamsburg.

They first tried their hands at a few different jobs. Reb Moshe was first hired to pack seforim at a store on the Lower East Side, and then the couple worked as cooks at a Catskills hotel run by the Gertner family (a Shabbos at the hotel cost a couple a grand total of $35 in those days). But their cousin was Reb Shloime Weiss, the legendary owner of Shlomo Weiss Bakery, and together with another cousin, the Oberlanders of Pesach cookies fame, they eventually went into the bakery business together. The rest is doughnut history.

“My mother was the driving force behind the business,” recalls Mrs. Gottlieb, a Franczoz daughter. “My

father was a quiet man who handled the business side of the operation, and he was renowned for his sterling sense of integrity.”

Businesses were run differently in those days. The concept of a 9-to-5 workday was as foreign as today’s prepackaged goods. The bakery would open at 6 o’clock every morning and stay open until 10 o’clock at night.

“My mother would come into the bakery in the morning, and stay until we locked up at night. We children would come to the bakery every day after school, and we went to work right alongside our parents. I learned at a very young age to ‘geb change,’ and I have that to thank for my sharp math skills to this very day,” says Mrs. Gottlieb.

Aside from helping out at the cash register, the children also helped scrub down the shelves every night before closing.

“Our busiest times were when other families would be enjoying family time,” Mrs. Gottlieb remembers. “Erev Yom Tov, Chol Hamoed, Hoshana Rabbah… these were all extrahectic days at the bakery. On Purim night we were often in the store until three in the morning. In fact, we were the first to sell prepackaged mishloach manos. We would buy holiday baskets, fill them with kindel cake, habcsók (the Hungarian version of meringue kisses), a small grape juice and an orange.”

Prepackaged mishloach manos started at $4. The most elaborate and expensive one cost about $14.

Taste of Nostalgia

Going to the bakery then, as now, was a special treat for children. Many things have changed since the 1950s, but one thing has not: The perennial children’s favorite is still a cupcake! The most notable difference between then and now, however, is the price. In the 1960s, a cupcake set you back just five cents (which, accounting for inflation, would be equivalent to 65 cents today).

The cupcakes themselves looked different, too; there were no sprinkles back then, only chocolate frosting. Chocolate-covered cupcakes were a favorite among the Bais Yaakov girls who commuted to Williamsburg for school. They would stop off at the Broadway bakery that was right off the Marcy Avenue subway station on their way to Bais Yaakov High School, which was two blocks away on South 8th Street.

It may just be nostalgia and hindsight wearing rose-colored glasses, but it seems that everything just tasted better and looked better in those days. Nothing was prepackaged; one of “the ladies” at the counter would cut off a piece from the giant cakes that were on display and weigh it carefully. To a wide-eyed child looking on in wonder, nothing could rival the drama of receiving their treat packaged in either a white bakery box or a special waxed bag, which was then tied with a flourish with red and white string.

Tastes have changed as well over the years, and many of the staples of yore have either disappeared or have been reinvented as “artisanal” bakery goods. Kimmel bread, genuine rye bread, pumpernickel bread, and “potatoniks” (a cross between potato kugel and giant latkes that would go, well, like “potatoniks!” on a Friday) were all basic staples that you would be hard-pressed to find today. I challenge you to find any young person today who could tell you what kimmel is!

“In my days, people turned up their noses at sourdough bread, and only a few old timers would ask for it. Today it’s the ‘in’ thing among young people,” Mrs. Gottlieb marvels.

The Evolution of the Franczoz Bakery

Reb Moshe Franczoz and his wife were perennial entrepreneurs, and as times changed, they were not afraid of reinventing themselves. The business went through many iterations, each contributing its unique flavor to Williamsburg.

“My parents first opened a bakery on Bedford Avenue and South 9th Street,” recalls Mr. Avrum Yitchok Franczoz, who is at the helm of the Franczoz operation today. “However, they had to give it up to the city when a park was built on that spot. They also had a factory across the street, which specialized in making lukshen. In fact, every once in a while, the Satmar Rebbetzin would come in and prepare a special batch of lukshen for the Satmar Rebbe, zt”l.”

The family ran bakeries sprinkled across Brooklyn, as well as one in Washington Heights. The Broadway bakery was dedicated to baking and selling milchig baked goods, including cheesecake, kreplach and butter cookies.

“My father didn’t want milchigs and parve to be baked at the

same location,” explains Mr. Franczoz.

Finally, the family bought the Grand Street location for their commercial operation, from where the company is still run today.

Brown Bags of Chesed

The chesed of the Franczoz family is legendary. When family matriarch Faigy Franczoz passed away, a local family with many sons undertook to learn mishnayos as a zechus for her neshamah. They were not related, but they explained that if not for her weekly deliveries of giant paper bags bursting with bread, challah and cake, they likely would have starved.

Mrs. Lefkowitz remembers helping out in her grandparents’ bakery as a child, and she recalls one old lady who would

Reb Moshe Franczoz (R) with his sons Reb Avrum Yitzchok and Reb Duvid in the bakery on Motzei Pesach

come in every Friday before closing with a large, wheeled shopping basket.

“Vus is geblibben? What’s left?” she would ask. She would then fill up her basket with challah and cake for her poverty-stricken daughter, who had a large family.

“I was kept busy from a young age delivering packages,” recalls Mrs. Gottlieb. “As a matter of fact, there was one family that would even get a delivery in the middle of a three-day Yom Tov! My mother would say, ‘They probably don’t have any food left,’ and off we would go to open the padlocked bakery and fill up enormous paper bags with more baked goods.”

A Family Legacy

As the business evolved through the 1980s and 1990s, and the Franczoz children grew up and got married, the bakery business changed as well. Different branches of the business were taken over by different family members, and the business changed from a retail business to a wholesale one.

“It just wasn’t possible to run the business the same way,” recounts another Franczoz son. “We couldn’t find women who were willing to come in to work in the early morning hours,

and so the business evolved into a wholesale/commercial operation.”

One of the first major successes of the Franczoz wholesale bakery was its now legendary Jerusalem WholeWheat Bread. The original recipe came from a Yerushalmi native. The recipe became a Franczoz secret, and the Yerushalmi became a Franczoz employee.

“My father wouldn’t hear of manufacturing a mezonos bread at first,” Mrs. Gottlieb says. “We had to wash for supper every single night at home, and he didn’t believe that the concept of “mezonos bread” was oisgehalten. But there was such an enormous demand for it that he finally caved. Today, rabbanim have brought renewed awareness about the halachic dubiousness of mezonos bread, and baruch Hashem, more people than ever are makpid to only eat bread that is unequivocally hamotzi.”

As the youngest Franczoz daughter, Mrs. Eidlisz had the “privilege” of opening the bakery at 6:30 sharp every morning. “In those days, Broadway started changing, and it was becoming less safe. I was scared to be alone in the shop, so I would lock the door between every customer and only open the door to customers that I trusted.”

After 7:30, when the streets started filling up with the many

The Whole Story of Whole-Wheat Bread

The American public first started becoming aware of the health benefits of whole-wheat bread in the 1970s, but it took many more years to catch on in the frum community. The wholesale manufacturing of whole-wheat bread really took off during the Obama years, says Mr. Zishe Spitzer, the night manager of Franczoz’s Grand Street operation.

“Michelle Obama put into effect new rules about what kind of lunches schools should be serving, since until then public schools largely served junk. Schools were then mandated to serve whole-wheat bread exclusively. The only problem? The kids wouldn’t touch it. We managed to produce a product called “soft whole-wheat” bread, which contains a combination of whole and regular wheat that still aligns with government regulations and is very popular with schools today.”

Today, Franczoz Bakery also supplies institutions such as hospitals and nursing homes with bread, rolls and cake — and, of course, their legendary doughnuts! They also take custom orders, sometimes from places as far away as Chicago, Florida, or even Eretz Yisroel.

“There is one custom order I’ll never forget,” recounts Mr. Franczoz. “Someone phoned in an order for a birthday cake, and since he had ten children, he requested that the cake should be decorated with ten flowers. Wanting to ensure that his instructions were followed to a T, he wrote on the order, ‘Ten flowers, lo pachos v’lo yoser, not more and not less.’ What do you think happened? He received a beautifully decorated cake, with ten flowers, and the words ‘lo pachos v’lo yoser ’ neatly written in colored icing across the cake!”

factory workers who worked in the area, young Mrs. Eidlisz was able to breathe a bit easier.

From the Oven to Your Toaster

What does the night shift at a busy wholesale bakery look like?

“We are a 24-hour operation,” explains Mr. Spitzer. “We finish right before Shabbos, and we start soon after the zman on Motzei Shabbos. As a matter of fact, Motzei Shabbos is our busiest day, as we have less time to get the Sunday deliveries out.”

The baking starts at about 4 or 5 in the afternoon, and finishes at about 5 or 6 a.m. The deliveries start at 2 a.m., and by 5 a.m., the last truck is already loaded. The most distant deliveries ship first, and the local Williamsburg deliveries go last.

Thank you!

The bread production is an enormous operation. The bakery uses two giant mixers, each of which can handle 10,000 pounds of dough. Next, the proofed loaves are baked in revolving ovens that can handle 500 to 600 loaves at a time. Clearly, the logistics of getting these thousands of loaves of bread out of the ovens, onto the trucks, and into your toaster every day involves lots of organization and preplanning.

The busiest season? The week after Pesach, and the summer. Ensuring that the camps are supplied with enough bread and then getting them upstate is a logistical nightmare that Mr. Spitzer handles every day of the summer with aplomb.

With so many batches of bread and challah being churned out throughout the night, who is mafrish challah each time?

“There is a Yid in the factory at all times,” says Mr. Spitzer. “All the workers know that no one is allowed to touch the dough before someone

In days gone by, there were two kinds of Napoleon cakes sold at Franczoz bakery: summer Napoleons and winter Napoleons. The winter Napoleons were filled with custard cream, and the Summer Napoleons were filled with lemon cream. Since custard was then made with raw eggs, health department regulations didn’t allow for them to be sold in the heat of the summer.

takes challah with a bracha. During the day, we sometimes ask one of our female secretaries to come in and take challah.”

Who braids the challos?

“Our non-Jewish workers have become expert challah braiders!”Mr. Spitzer says wryly.

One of the beautiful benefits of working in a frum-owned bakery is the way other kosher bakeries are always willing to help each other out.

“Emergencies always crop up,” says Mr. Spitzer. “If I get an unexpected order in the middle of the night and I’m short an ingredient, I can always call another bakery to help us out. The same with freezer space; if we have a need, we will always find another kosher bakery willing to help us out, and of course, we are always willing to do the same for others.”

It’s nice to know, as you’re spreading butter on your toast, that there’s a story behind every loaf of bread and every doughnut that bears the Franczoz label. It’s a story that resonates with every descendant of Holocaust survivors or child of immigrants who established themselves anew. It’s a story of blood, sweat and tears, a story of hard work, incredible chesed and siyata d’Shmaya, and the eternal story of Yidden working hard to establish themselves so that generations of Yiddishe children would have a future.

As for the burning question — which doughnuts are more popular, chocolate-covered or powdered sugar? — the answer is chocolate. Sorry, sugar doughnut–lovers. Enjoy your doughnuts anyway!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Doroseinu Encourages Parents in the Monsey Area to Register Unplaced Children for School Placement Assistance

Monsey, NY – Following the remarkable success of placing nearly 100 children into schools last year, Doroseinu, the trusted advocacy group, is once again oering its expertise and dedication to assist families in Monsey and the surrounding areas with school placements for the current academic year.

Parents seeking assistance in securing a school for their child/ren are strongly encouraged to complete our questionnaire, which will help us build a registry of children still awaiting placement. Our team of dedicated askunim, is working diligently to ensure every child is placed.

While placement cannot be guaranteed, Doroseinu remains committed to leaving no stone unturned in its eorts to secure a school spot for every child in need.

Please fill out a separate questionnaire for each child who has not yet been placed in a school. The form can be completed in Yiddish and English and will remain entirely confidential.

About Doroseinu:

Doroseinu is an advocacy group working hand in hand with all local Mosdos and Rabbunim with an ironclad commitment to helping families in Monsey and surrounding areas by facilitating school placements for children who have not yet been accepted.

P.S. We strongly advise that no one should move to the Monsey area without having all their children accepted into local mosdos. All mosdos in the area are currently full to capacity, and we cannot assist families who move to Monsey without proper planning ahead of time.

HADASSAH STEINMAN

I’m changing a three-week-old baby when the phone rings one summer morning.

“Hello, Mrs. Steinman!” comes the bright greeting. “This is the day camp director calling, on speakerphone!”

She pauses, and I quickly shush the squalling baby.

“Today is Mommy Day in day camp,” she continues cheerily, “and we’re playing a game with the kindergarten class. I’m going to ask you two questions, and the girls here will have to guess whose mother you are. Ready?”

“Ready!” I say, pretending to be just as cheery as she sounds.

The first question comes: “What did your daughter eat for breakfast this morning?”

It takes a few seconds for me to formulate an answer, because has it really come to this? Am I, the breakfast queen, really going to admit that my daughter ate rice cakes for breakfast?

But I’m on speakerphone, and my daughter must be waiting to hear my voice again. Worse yet, there is no use explaining to five-year-olds that a new baby means temporary dysfunction.

And anyway, it isn’t the whole truth.

Back in 2020, when the world as we knew it was torn to shreds, pas Shacharis in our home was another minor casualty.

In the days “before,” in true rule-stickler fashion, my kids were served breakfast every morning. It was usually pretty simple fare, but that others allowed their kids to run out of the house in the morning after wolfing down only a bowl of Golden Puffs? Or nothing at all? My uber-judgmental self found that scandalous.

But then a microscopic manslayer known as COVID-19 began charging from one country to the next, and the world went mad.

As the pandemic raged, someone snapped their fingers and said, “I know — let’s fix this! Let’s send kids bags of lunches! Let’s send families boxes of food!”

And someone else — probably someone whose pockets saw the light — said, “Yes, let’s!”

looked like it was reborn in Thailand. (The team behind those lunches fixed that real fast; the following day’s delivery included a recipe for pineapple sorbet, but sadly, no cook for hire.)

Nevertheless, there was enough of everything to spare, and that’s what mattered. Cartons and cartons of cherry tomatoes! Rows and rows of chicken franks! Bags and bags of buns!

When the jokes involving the toilet paper shortage ran dry, the next joke was about the food boxes. How do you save yourself from drowning in all this milk? By grabbing onto the nearest chick pea!

But for better or for worse, the kids were fed.

Eventually, those dark weeks passed, and along with them, the first burst of rage from the monster that was Covid. Eventually the kids went back to school, but even then, it was like the flood of food believed it was its sacred duty to help the world recover. School breakfasts became gala affairs featuring salad and bagels and yogurts to spare, and this foolish mother put away her whole-wheat bread and butter, tuna and cheese, to take advantage of this largesse.

What was I thinking? Would a school menu of salad and bagels really last forever? Of course not. But my resolve had slipped, and there was no getting it back up.

Soon enough, the bread and veggies had vanished, and it was back to regular school fare of muffins and sweet cereal. But once I’d stopped serving a real nourishing breakfast, my kids were no longer willing to eat them. There were some better days, and many worse months, but I knew the sad truth: I’d joined the ranks of those other mothers.

As the pandemic raged, someone snapped their fingers and said, “I know — let’s fix this! Let’s send kids bags of lunches!”

And that was the beginning of the end.

At first, when the kids were all home, the delivered lunches were admittedly a help. And when we grew wary of regular grocery shopping, it was nice to have our milk automatically replenished. It was almost like having a cow all to ourselves — only without the hay and mess.

Not that it was all convenience; there were some blips along the way. Like when we got seven pineapples by mistake, and our kitchen

Then came summer, and I geared up for a new attempt. My girls would be leaving an hour later than usual each morning, and there it was: a chance to reinforce eating breakfast. But then came another new baby, and along with a new baby comes a whole new set of broken rules. Which left me to wonder: Was this it? Are rules meant to be broken?

After announcing my failure on speakerphone one fine summer morning, I’m afraid they are. And anyway, rice cakes aren’t all that bad.

For any issues such as:

• Garbage pickup issues

• Street light outages

• Construction concerns

• Unauthorized road closures

• Road hazards like potholes, etc.

please don't hesitate to contact our community liaison, and your concern will be resolved in the most e ective manner.

BETWEEN A ROCKLAND AND A HARD PLACE

Being white or being Jewish, and even being Orthodox, isn’t a transgression. But New York State Education Commissioner Betty Rosa seems to imply otherwise. She recently directed the East Ramapo central school district board to levy a large raise in the district’s property taxes (based on an obscure 1926 court decision), because it is “home to a large number of students who…are almost all white…and almost exclusively attend yeshivas…[while the district’s] public school students, by contrast, are overwhelmingly students of color.”

Wondering what race or religion have to do with taxes? You’re not alone. Here are the relevant facts:

The East Ramapo School District has had fiscal problems for years. New York State funds school districts based on their public-school enrollment. In most districts, the existence of private schools in the district has little impact on a district’s public schools, as the share of students who attend nonpublic schools is negligible.

But the East Ramapo district is an outlier in that way. As Rosa notes, the vast majority of its school children attend private schools. Those are the “yeshivas” to which she refers. The area is home to a large population of Orthodox Jews, and while most are far from wealthy, they insist on sending their children to schools that teach Jewish texts and values. Those schools — most of which struggle to pay maintenance, salaries and much-needed security services — are dependent on tuition payments and private donations. They are, however, entitled by New York state law to things like textbooks and transportation. And so, a portion of the state allotment to the district is directed to the private school kids for things like their textbooks and their busing, as well as other state-required services.

However, because the state funding formula ignores private schools, the

INSTEAD OF APPRECIATING TAXPAYING PARENTS WHO, AT GREAT PERSONAL SACRIFICE, SELF-FUND THEIR CHILDREN’S EDUCATION, THE STATE HAS ENACTED PUNITIVE TAX LEVIES TO COMPENSATE FOR A BROKEN FORMULA.

district’s public schools, after the mandated transportation costs are funded, are left in the lurch, with inadequate funds to maintain their facilities and programs.

That is a terrible disservice to public school students, whatever their race or religion.

And it is born of the state’s formula for the allocation of funds to school districts, a formula that simply makes no sense for private school-heavy districts like East Ramapo.

Rather than tackling the problem at its source, though, Rosa, after an appeal was filed by a parent backed by the New York Civil Liberties Union — the same NYCLU that has consistently called the district a “Jim Crow” district, conjuring up the worst racial stereotypes — has decided to just put a Band-Aid on the festering sore, an increase in the property tax levy of 4.38%, atop a 1% increase previously approved by the school board. Her “solution,” which is unfair to all the district’s residents – white, black, Hispanic, Jewish, Catholic, Muslim and any other ethnicity or religion — makes some difference here.

Rosa’s order has to go before the school board, which, reasonably, will likely vote against the increase, but a state monitor is expected to veto the board’s decision and implement the increase, which will almost surely lead to litigation in the courts.

What should be obvious to all is the need not to overtax all homeowners in the district, but to deal with the source of the budgeting problem — the state’s formula for school district allocation, which is ill-suited to East Ramapo and other private school-heavy districts. Moreover, the proposed levy of 4.38%

is estimated to increase revenue by approximately $6 million, while the shortfall caused by the flawed formula is estimated to be closer to $20 million annually.

As to what race or religion have to do with the issue here, the answer is… nothing. At least that should be the case.

Our message to Commissioner Rosa is clear: You are responsible to care about all of the district’s schoolchildren, regardless of their color or faith. Recognize, and deal with, the real problem in East Ramapo and use your bully pulpit to lobby the legislature to correct this flawed formula.

WD-40, the spray that comprises a secret, unique blend of lubricants, stands for “Water Displacement, 40th formula,” because, yes, it took 40 attempts to get this product to be just right! And you know what they say: “You only need two tools in life: Duct Tape and WD-40. If it moves and shouldn’t, use Duct Tape, if it doesn’t move and should, use WD-40.”

COMMON MISTAKES STRAIGHT

Remuneration is a word that is very commonly both misspelled and mispronounced in a way that exchanges the m and first n (mistakenly thought to be renumeration), because many English speakers assume it has the same root word as numeral.
