HEALERS WITH A HEART
(Re: Kindness in Hospital Corridors, Issue 347) I was very touched to read about the doctors who go the extra mile to deliver a caring experience to people who are suffering. It brought to mind so many special people in the medical field we’ve seen over the years, whose good cheer and extra dose of kindness always made dealing with health issues so much more pleasant.

(Re: Impetigo, Issue 347) Thank you for your informative article on impetigo and infections in general. Too many mothers do not realize that infections are contagious and that their kids have to be kept away from others when they are infected with something like it, and I appreciate the awareness the article brought to the issue. On the topic of staph infections, I’d like to share that my son had a MRSA infection, and we had a hard time treating it and protecting my other children from it. My doctor advised that I start putting some bleach into the bath every time my kids have a bath, and, baruch Hashem, it has worked wonders! W E A T H E R

PERFECT PICKS
(Re: Tagged for Your Tiny Tot, Issue 346) What a great roundup of toddler items you featured! I never even knew these things existed, and I can use a number of them for my little one who’s just about hitting that curious stage. I especially love the novelty of the faucet extenders. I noticed there was nothing food-related, so I wanted to share something that was a sanity-saver for me in the past. Munchkin has spill-proof snack cups (available at baby sections in groceries or department stores) that allow little fingers to remove one piece at a time without turning over the entire snack within seconds. A similar item I love for that age is the 360-degree spill-proof cup. With much appreciation, N.T.
RE: WHAT ARE WE ENCOURAGING?
(Inbox, Issue 345) The small shtetl of Monsey exists in our dreams. Outlying areas such as Spring Valley, Haverstraw, Suffern, Pearl River, New City, Forshay, Wesley Hills, Pomona, Nyack and so on, once listed in our phone books as addresses for doctors, lawyers, hospitals and parks, have turned into heimish neighborhoods. A single-family home in Monsey is a rarity today, practically a relic of the “olden, golden” days, when my European/Williamsburg mother-in-law once (over 40 years ago) sat by my front window and said that all one can see in Monsey are squirrels. When Monsey was in its fledgling years, with more bungalows than homes and a single grocery serving the entire Jewish populace, it was also considered “far-flung” with “few amenities.” It is now forty years hence, and we are witness to a proliferation of kinderlach and school buses representing many chedarim and schools, baruch Hashem. Staying within the vicinity of kosher stores with mehudar hechsherim comes at a steep price. Thus, moving across the United States has everything to do with affordable housing and providing children with a wholesome, healthy environment within an enclave of yet another “thriving center of Torah.” The “pioneers” you reference aren’t building their homes from the ground up with logs and sod. The homes have electricity and plumbing. But their material quality of life definitely overrides ours. They can hear birds chirping, smell freshly cut grass, own a private swingset, THE MONSEY VIEW WELCOMES YOUR COMMENTS, FEEDBACK AND LETTERS.

and enjoy a sense of privacy our neighborhoods are sorely lacking. There is no need for a privacy fence or permanently drawn shades. That sort of life compromises on nothing. Chasdei Hashem, “mehudar” resources are available throughout the U.S. and much of Europe. Or else, one does with less or even (horror of horrors!) without. If one is desperate for the need to choose between 10 types of basic sprinkles, and 24 types of challah flour, and 88 choices of Shabbos snack, then stay within the borders of over-population. Otherwise, spread your wings and take advantage of a greener “makom Torah.” R.S.
AN EXCELLENT EXCURSION
(Re: Excursions Supplement, Issue 344) I’m writing this long overdue letter to let you know how much I appreciated the listing of trip ideas in the Pesach magazine! I’m sure it was a lot of work to put together. I visited Teatown Lake Reservation on chol hamoed and would highly recommend it. The trail I chose was clearly marked and easy to follow. The area was really beautiful and scenic, and the walk was most enjoyable. I definitely plan on returning in the future. Thank you for your suggestions, and for enhancing my yom tov. Sincerely, Gittel Karniol
NOT SOMETHING TO GLORIFY
(Re: A Diamond for Everyone, Issue 343) I was quite disappointed by the article you ran on Swarovski crystals. Far be it for a heimish publication to glorify a business with a known Nazi past. I’m sure many of your readers are descendants of Holocaust survivors — or even survivors themselves — and writing about a company like this is insensitive and wrong. Rabbi S. 128

PARSHAS BEHAR An Eye on the Blessing
Parshas Behar contains the beloved mitzvah of Shemittah. The pasuk says, “And if you should say, ‘What will we eat in the seventh year?’ then ‘v’tzivisi es birchasi —I will command My bracha for you in the sixth year, and it will yield produce for three years” (Vayikra 25:20–21). Rav Chatzkel Levenstein, zt”l, noted that according to the pasuk above, it seems as if the question “What will we eat?” was what brought about the commandment of Hashem’s bracha. “Had they not asked this question,” Rav Chatzkel asks, “would they not have received the bracha?” THEY WERE about to drink l’chaim. But the chasan’s side was asking for $10,000, a massive sum at the time, and Reb Shlomo* had no idea how he could possibly make the commitment. He went over to the Rosh Yeshivah of Etz Chaim, Reb Avraham Yakov Zelaznik, zt”l, and asked what he was meant to do. He simply could not see himself coming up with so much money. Reb Avraham Yakov instructed his talmid to go ahead with the shidduch. “There is no choice. Sooner or later, you will have to commit to a sum greater than your means in order to marry off your daughter. Better you should commit now than wait unnecessarily, and Hashem will help.” Much to everyone’s joy, the shidduch was completed. Reb Shlomo soon returned to the Rosh Yeshivah. “What should I do now? Where should I start?” he asked. “Now you need to do some hishtadlus,” was the reply. “Go to the yeshivah’s office and ask for the addresses of some of our wealthy donors. Write to them, asking for help.” Reb Shlomo did just that. But those sitting in the office were not too happy about the request. “Do you think we would give out such sensitive information? We can’t share our donor list.” “But the Rosh Yeshivah told me to ask for it,” Reb Shlomo said. In the end they gave him the details of one donor who had lost much of his money and was not in a position to give too much. Of course, they didn’t tell this to Reb Shlomo… Reb Shlomo did his hishtadlus. He wrote a heartfelt letter to
136
The Monsey View
May 18, 2022
www.themonseyview.com · 845.600.8484
this donor and hoped for positive results. A few weeks later, an envelope arrived in the mail. Inside was a check for $10,000. Exactly. Reb Shlomo shared his elation with the hanhalah, who quickly sent a fundraising letter to that donor on behalf of the yeshivah. The donor, however, replied that although he would have loved to give a sizeable donation, he simply did not have the means. He explained that his daughter had fallen sick, and he promised to donate $10,000 in her zechus to the next charity request that he received. And Reb Shlomo’s hachnasas kallah solicitation was the first envelope in his mailbox… * * * * * Everyone in Salant knew of the high level of bitachon of Reb Yosef Zundel, zt”l. On many occasions they witnessed him achieving the supernatural in the merit of his deep-rooted trust in Hakadosh Baruch Hu. Though Reb Yosef Zundel didn’t have two pennies to rub together, as his daughter came of age, he expressed his pure belief that Hashem would send him a son-in-law who was a true talmid chacham. This was like a wild dream, totally unattainable. Without a penny toward a dowry, there was no conceivable way he could find a chasan of such caliber. One day, a young ilui named Shmuel arrived in Salant. He was a serious, diligent talmid chacham with a depth and breadth of knowledge that impressed everyone in town.
This can be yours too!
One of the wealthier townspeople was so shocked that he literally fell onto the floor. Reb Yosef Zundel soon heard that Shmuel had been married for a short while to the daughter of one of his rebbeim, but the marriage had not worked out. Thus, he had looked to move to a new town and made Salant his destination. Reb Yosef Zundel developed a close relationship with the young talmid chacham, who learned b’chavrusa with Reb Yisroel Salanter, the father of the Mussar movement. In time, Reb Yosef Zundel suggested his daughter to Reb Shmuel, and the shidduch was concluded. Reb Shmuel, who soon moved to Eretz Yisroel, became famed as Reb Shmuel Salant, the Rav of Yerushalayim. The townspeople were blown away by the shidduch. One of the wealthier townspeople was sitting on his sofa when he heard the news, and he was so shocked that he literally fell onto the floor. That one of the poorest people in town succeeded at finding such a special son-in-law without having to promise the usual large dowry was so obviously the work of Hashem. It was simply beyond the natural way of the world! * * * * *

Rav Chatzkel Levenstein explained: The Yidden were not worrying about where they would get their food. Obviously, one who is prepared to let his fields lie fallow also believes that he will not lose out from following the ways of Hashem! Thus, their question of “What will we eat?” was their realization of the miracles being performed for them. Indeed, when a person would pays attention to the patterns of his harvest, he would suddenly notice the extra bracha he received from Above. Growing a three-year supply of produce is most certainly a miracle! In the same way, we must constantly open our eyes and pay attention to the miracles around us. From where do we have food for breakfast? Clothes to wear? Who is giving us health, family, our house? Asking ourselves this question allows us to notice the extra bracha we receive and the nissim in our lives.

We are currently in the year that is most beloved and precious to Hashem. Hakadosh Baruch Hu specifically distinguishes the seventh in a series as most dear. Some examples, other than Shemittah are: Shabbos, the seventh day of the week; Tishrei, the seventh month of the year; Moshe Rabbeinu, the seventh builder of Klal Yisroel; and Dovid Hamelech, the seventh son of Yishai.

Some people see vitamins and pharmaceuticals as inherently in conflict with each other. How do you feel about that?
BETTER HEALTH. BETTER CARE. What makes a pharmacy rise above the field? With doctors writing the prescriptions and most medications equally available everywhere, this competitive field resorts to faster delivery, better customer service or other non-pharmaceutical benefits to gain an advantage. One local pharmacy, while also offering all that with distinction, set out to find an edge that would improve patient health in a meaningful way. Maple Pharmacy in Town Square believes that “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” and has become an industry leader in assisting local families with their vitamin, nutritional and other preventative health needs. Recently, the pharmacy hired Yossi Berkowitz to lead its popular Vitamin Desk department and further this mission. Yossi has earned a reputation for helping hundreds of Brooklyn families live better lives before making the transition up to Monsey where he joined Maple Pharmacy’s skilled team. We caught up with Yossi to discuss his work, the impact it has had, as well as tips that our readers can benefit from.

I get why the sentiment is so, and it was perhaps true once, but today a growing number of doctors recommend taking vitamins together with medication, including the popular pairing of probiotics and antibiotics. To that end, we offer a wide selection of probiotics geared for all ages and stages. Whether we’re preventing an illness or recovering from one, our bodies need all the help we can get, and that is our guiding philosophy. Has the combination of pharmaceuticals and vitamins changed the way customers shop?
Of course. For starters, there is the logistical aspect that we have everything available for you as you shop, that we are open daily until 11 p.m. for those who find themselves in urgent need of something, and the stellar customer service we’re known for. Additionally, our team is able to provide more comprehensive guidance that offers the right combination of medications and vitamins appropriate for each patient in their circumstances.
Many people find that medicine is more evidence-based than vitamins? How do you bridge that gap?
There are numerous studies demonstrating the significant health benefits of certain vitamins, including the reduction of certain disease risks, prevention of chronic conditions, the increasing of bone density and more. Doctors now regularly recommend supplements for individuals of all ages, as your readers surely know. And while vitamins weren’t necessary way back in the day, our lives today and the processed things we consume make it vital for our bodies to receive nutrients via these supplements. How does your advice and guidance play out in your new position as head of The Vitamin Desk?
My approach is to look at the complete picture. Recently, a man came into the store complaining that he’s taking all his vitamins and eating all his meals and yet still feels tired and lethargic. I went through his daily regimen and everything indeed checked out. But then when I asked about his bedtime, he made a face and said, “Oh, let’s not get into that.” It turned out that he was regularly going to sleep after 2 a.m., and no amount of vitamins could possibly replace that. I have noticed that sleep, or the lack thereof, is a big issue in our circles and I’ve made it a big focus to try and help consumers develop healthier sleeping habits. Speaking of vitamins and sleep, where do you stand on whether children should take melatonin to help them fall asleep?
That’s a great question, and it’s one that we receive a lot. My take, based on reading up on the research and speaking with lots of parents, is that it should not be given on a regular basis in the way other vitamins are, but can be used here or there when kids are off schedule, such as after a yom tov or wedding week, to get them back on track. And when melatonin is given, I suggest putting a small amount in the forms of drops into the child’s bedtime drink so they don’t begin associating going to sleep with taking their “candy.” What about children who have regular trouble falling asleep?
If that’s the case, there is probably an underlying reason that must be addressed, one that should certainly not be “treated” superficially with melatonin. Perhaps they are lacking certain nutrients like calcium, or maybe they are too ac-

tive and consuming sugar before bed. There are many potential root causes that we can help identify and address. Let’s continue with the topic of sleep, as it seems to be highly relevant to many of us. What can people do to improve the quality of their sleep?
A good night’s sleep begins with the right bedtime preparation. It is important to turn off all brighter lights to promote relaxation and stimulate serotonin production, which your body needs to produce natural melatonin, the hormone that regulates our daily sleep-wake cycle. When it’s time to go to sleep, all lights should be completely switched off as our brains can detect light even through our eyelids. Another important thing is to avoid eating late at night, say about two hours before bedtime, as eating activates our metabolism and wakes up our body at a time when it should be winding down. The benefits of a good night’s sleep are truly all-encompassing. They improve mental health, lower stress levels, strengthen the immune system, power a healthy heart and brain, provide energy, encourage weight loss, and much more. Going back to vitamins, how do you advise those who take their vitamins and don’t feel that the effects are real — like it is with pharmaceuticals?
There are a few answers here, but I’ll focus on a couple. First, some vitamins can be measured via blood work, but you won’t necessarily be able to “feel” the difference. SecMay 18, 2022

Emergency Preparedness a Priority as Multiple Agencies Collaborate on Active Shooter Drill at Evergreen Less than a week before a racially-motivated supermarket shooting in Buffalo took the lives of ten and left three people injured, the Town of Ramapo Police Department hosted an active shooter drill in Evergreen and the Town Square Mall, working closely with local community groups to provide potentially life-saving, hands-on training.
The drill took place on the morning of May 9, with Evergreen opening two hours later than normally scheduled to accommodate the exercise, reported Yeshiva World News. The drill included a simulated active shooter scenario involving medical traumas, with an emergency call going out to the Ramapo Police Department, Hatzoloh and Chaverim. William Paul Faist Volunteer Ambulance Corps, Spring Hill Community Ambulance Corps and Rockland Paramedic Services all responded to the scene, where police officers played the role of shooters and Chaverim members posing as victims were triaged according to the severity of their injuries. The drill promoted interagency collaboration in an effort to provide a better response should a similar situation ever occur in real life, chas v’shalom, with each of the agencies involved learning the role they would be called on to play should such a situation ever unfold locally. Chaverim coordinator Yossi Margaretten explained that his team would be responsible for securing the perimeter in the event of a shooting, allowing only emergency vehicles into the immediate area. Chaverim would also be tasked with relaying information to members of law enforcement, if any members are able to see or hear what is taking place at the scene from a safe distance. Described by the Ramapo Police Department as a “valuable multi-agency training event,” the simulation took on an added sense of gravity after last weekend’s mass shooting by a heavily armed white supremacist who had previously released a 180-page manifesto that spewed hatred for both Blacks and Jews. “What happened in Buffalo just makes it stronger that we needed to have this drill,” Chaverim coordinator Yossi Margaretten told The Monsey View. “You never know where something like this can happen, and we all need to be prepared.”
Public Outcry Prompts Lufthansa Apology After 100+ Jewish Passengers Banned From Flight One week after trying to play down allegations of anti-Semitism stemming from an incident that had more than 100 Jewish passengers barred from their connecting flight, Lufthansa has issued an apology and suspended the employees involved pending an internal investigation. The incident occurred on May 4, when dozens of visibly Jewish passengers heading to Hungary to mark the yahrtzeit of Reb Shayale Kerestir flew from JFK to 158

Budapest on Lufthansa with a stopover in Frankfurt. According to DansDeals, the vast majority of the passengers on the New York to Frankfurt leg of the flight were Jewish, with some traveling as part of a group, while others had made their own arrangements. Passengers reported that the pilot made an announcement halfway through the flight warning of repercussions for those in violation of the airline’s mask rules, but that most were wearing their masks as required by Lufthansa. After landing in Frankfurt, passengers were greeted at the connecting gate to Budapest by a large number of armed German police officers, some of whom were carrying submachine guns. Nearly all of the Jewish passengers were not allowed to board their flight to Hungary, with some informed that they were being denied passage because they were part of “the group.” Video emerged of a Lufthansa gate agent telling one man that since a few Jewish passengers had not worn their masks on the flight from JFK, all of the Jewish passengers were being punished and banned from the Frankfurt to Budapest flight. Just 30 passengers were on board the Hungary-bound flight when it took off, with approximately 130 Jewish passengers left behind in the Frankfurt airport, with Lufthansa taking the additional punitive action of barring them from any of its flights within the next 24 hours. Lufthansa issued a statement on May 10 after the story surfaced in the media, expressing its regrets for “the circumstances surrounding the decision to exclude the affected passengers,” which it referred to as “the large group.” Because it failed to mention anti-Semitic discrimination, incorrectly classified dozens of unrelated flyers as members of a single group, and included other errors and omissions, the statement sparked a new wave of public outrage, and the story made headlines on major media outlets in the United States, Israel and Germany. Within two days, Rabbi Yehuda Teichtal, Berlin’s community rabbi, was contacted by Lufthansa CEO Carsten Spohr, who apologized for the incident. Spohr arranged a follow-up meeting with Rabbi Teichtal to discuss further steps, calling his employees’ 160

actions unacceptable and saying that employees involved had been suspended as the airline investigates the matter. According to COLlive, Rabbi Teichtal called on Lufthansa to provide awareness training for its employees. “If an employee in Lufthansa uniform acts wrongly, concerns and accusations of anti-Semitism are quite legitimate,” said Rabbi Teichtal. “More sensitivity may be expected from a German corporation. I am pleased that the CEO of Lufthansa reacted so quickly, took a clear position, and apologized.” But with Lufthansa still failing to address the matter publicly with an official apology as of Sunday night, the matter has escalated to the federal level, with New Jersey Congressman Chris Smith sending a scathing letter to Spohr in his capacity as a founding member of the House of Representatives’ Bipartisan Task Force for Combatting Anti-Semitism and the InterParliamentary Task Force to Combat Online Anti-Semitism. Smith pulled no punches in his letter, saying he was utterly disgusted by the incident. In it, he demanded an explanation

for the airline’s discriminatory actions and asked how the affected passengers will be made whole, what kind of corrective action will be taken against the Lufthansa employees involved, and why it was necessary to bring police down to the gate. Smith’s letter also included a request for a meeting — either virtually with Spohr, or face to face with a senior Lufthansa representative — to hear an explanation of the May 4th events, adding that some of his Jewish constituents who were on the flight might be present for the conversation. He noted that he would be speaking with Ambassador Deborah Lipstadt, special envoy to monitor and combat anti-Semitism, on May 19 and asked that Lufthansa arrange the requested meeting prior to that date. “Ambassador Lipstadt has gone on record expressing her concern over the incident, which she labels ‘classic antiSemitism,’” wrote Smith. “Based on the evidence before me, I concur with this assessment, and the behavior of Lufthansa personnel cries out for an explanation.”

C H A P T E R 10 RECAP: Zach Ganz wakes up exhausted. He has a busy day ahead of him, trying to figure out what happened to his career so suddenly. He confirms who is behind this sudden attack, but that doesn’t seem to get him anywhere. Later, as Chaim Simcha and Izzy are about to pick up their car and head home, Zach appears at the door of their hotel room.
I
zzy stared at his cousin in shock. Zach Ganz seemed to have fallen apart in the few hours since they’d last seen him. The silver-smooth hair was now a dusty gray, the delicate laugh lines now mere crow’s feet. And he had a stooping posture, as if he were carrying a weight he couldn’t quite identify. But it was the eyes that told the story most clearly. He had a harried, tired look that gave Izzy the impression of a man on the run. Zach stood just inside the doorway, the cold air tussling his already-unkempt hair. With the embarrassed look of a person who suddenly realizes they’ve committed a faux pas, he looked from Izzy to Chaim Simcha, forcing some of the old charm back to his face with an awkward
smile. “Sorry to barge in,” he began. “The door opened, and I thought —” “Come, come,” Chaim Simcha interrupted, shutting the door firmly behind them. “I’d offer you something to drink, but we really don’t have anything but water and stale coffee.” “Water’s fine,” Zach said. Izzy watched as his brother puttered about at the sink, making a show of being a gracious host. He seemed determined to put Zach at ease. They waited a bit while Zach drank, pulled off his coat, and looked around awkwardly for a place to put it. “Toss it on a bed,” Chaim Simcha suggested. Beneath his thick jacket, Zach wore a tailored Italian suit that probably fit him
perfectly most of the time. At the moment, however, it looked slightly too large as Zach sank into one of the puffy chairs by the tiny table. “Everything all right, Mr. Ganz?” Izzy asked. “It’s Zach. Just Zach.” He gave a short bark of laughter as he stared into nothing. “We’re family, after all.” Chaim Simcha caught Izzy’s eye, and they shared a moment of silent communication. There was only one other chair in the room. Izzy immediately plopped down on the edge of the bed, and both bothers pulled off their own coats. They obviously wouldn’t be leaving soon. “What’s up, Zach?” Chaim Simcha asked in a soft, pleasant tone. Zach stared moodily at the ground. After a long pause, he asked, “Rabbi, does Judaism believe in curses?” Surprised, Izzy gazed at their guest and tried to understand where this was coming from. Was this the suave, confident man of the world they’d spoken to so recently? Izzy wondered idly which was the real Zach Ganz —the smooth politician, or this mercurial, superstitious, broken man? Izzy knew that most people were far less stable than they made it out to be, and public figures were certainly no better. The only difference was that public figures, who had to at least look puttogether, lied about it more often. Maybe Zach was always like this. Or maybe the real Zach was a calm, put-together sort of fellow. If so, he thought, what has happened since last night to put him in such a state? “Sometimes,” Chaim Simcha responded carefully. “It’s not common these days. But we do hear of what we’ll call dark spiritual forces, that evil people sometimes make use of. Bilaam tried to curse the Jewish people. He was a master of curses.” Zach looked up, eyes wide. “How would I know if someone has cursed me?” Chaim Simcha stroked his beard and considered. “Hmmm… Have you experienced any sudden misfortune lately? Something that openly breaks the laws of nature?” Zach seemed to struggle for a moment. “Supernatural? Why? Are curses always like that?” “Answering a question with anoth-

He said nothing, knowing this was hardly the right attitude for a ben Torah. But he couldn’t stop himself thinking discussing a question no more personal than how to read a Rashi. “Does any of that resonate with you?” it. Zach started to answer, then glanced at his watch with a Chaim Simcha sat there, hands clasped loosely in front of him, maintaining a cheerful alertness. He seemed to feel horrified expression. He stood up, suddenly very self-conthat Zach wasn’t quite finished talking. The silence stretched scious. “I’m sorry, Rabbi.

(Not) Troubled Teen The curious case of a mischaracterized boy Yitzchak’s father was convinced their son is suffering from ADHD. Yitzchak was super hyperactive with an attention deficit shorter than the blink of an eye. In fact, it didn’t take much more than the blink of an eye for him to wreak havoc in his surroundings. Everything with Yitzchak was messy. His room was in constant disarray, as was the kitchen table after spending minutes there. It seemed as if Yitzchak’s been born with chaos as his second nature.
It seemed as if Yitzchak’s been born with chaos as his second nature He was in the same situation at school, where he did poorly academically and socially. His friends perceived him as odd and awkward, while his Rabbis simply tired from reaching out to the parents on an almost daily basis. *
Yitzchak’s father was convinced the root of the problems lies in his condition. As Yitzchak was in his early teenage years, his father partially attributed the trouble to his age.
an understatement, that he was not getting along with his mother. He found fault with everything and managed to quarrel with his parents over petty stuff. Which is the point at which the despairing, exhausted father reached out to me. *
My gut told me right from the onset that this isn’t ADHD - at least, not only that. Impulsivity and hyperactivity are quite common these days, and aren’t enough to explain Yitzchak’s unusually erratic behavior. The fact he’s tried almost every combination of almost every possible medication without any results, supported my assumption of there being more to the story. To me, his troubles were hinting at some form of emotional distress. I was correct. Yitzchak, it turned out, was the product of emotional neglect and outright verbal abuse. Constant criticism and derogatory comments, including name-calling, was pretty much the norm in the house.
All this made sense, except that it didn't. Yitzchak has been prescribed medication, and numerous attempts with several meds and dosages didn’t manage to produce any substantial results.
My gut told me right from the onset that this isn’t ADHD — at least, not only that
Yitzchak ended up being expelled from yeshiva and had a hard time finding a new, suitable one. At home, he became increasingly agitated and even rebellious. It’s
It took some time to verify the validity of my intuition. However, once I found myself speaking to the father for some time, the picture materialized very clearly...
*
Yitzchak, I suggested, might be suffering from some form of ADHD, but at the root his problems are mainly the result of trauma and triggers. Yitzchak’s father reluctantly concurred. He didn’t have to be a professional to understand that what he’s been witnessing fits the explanation. Yitzchak is a kind kid, a warm, loving, cheerful teen with a very sensitive soul, which has absorbed lots of mistreatment and emotional harm. The pain was only piling up further, and his behavior was nothing more than an expression of fear, agony and distress. The pattern actually started in Yitzchak’s mind, which was indeed in disarray — cluttered with thoughts and emotions he didn’t know how to process. *
I’m obviously skipping some details, but after a year Yitzchak is a completely different person. That troubled 13-year-old teen is now happily living with a different family, and is performing brilliantly both academically and socially — adored by teachers and loved by peers. All I’ve done is to identify the true cause behind the turbulence in that boy’s erratic life. After we figured out what we were really struggling with, the parents were able to focus their efforts on tachlis -- putting their efforts in the right direction. Because sometimes the real difficulty is getting to the bottom of something that’s merely covered with layers of denial and oblivion.

After almost four long months, the strike at the Finnish paper mills from where we source The Monsey View’s paper has finally come to an end on April 22. However, the mills are still not running, and it will take a while for the first shipment of paper to arrive in the U.S. Throughout the strike, with paper being so hard to come by, we did all we could to obtain the best paper to maximize The Monsey View reading experience, even as the prices of paper skyrocketed. However, to our regret, this week we have once again been forced to print a small section of our magazine on high-quality newsprint. We are hopeful that this will be the last time we will need to do so. In two to three weeks, this issue should be behind us entirely. At that time, we will continue to provide premium-quality printing across the board. We want to take this opportunity to thank you, our dear advertisers and readers, for your understanding and patience as we weathered this crisis.

T
he theme of Lag Ba’omer relates to the talmidim of Rabi Akiva and is marked by the joyous return of music to our lives. I recently had the zechus to speak with Reb Moshe Tzvi (Howard) Birnbaum, a former professional musician who, reminiscent of Rabi Akiva, overcame great challenges to begin learning Torah at an advanced age. Mr. Birnbaum was born 74 years ago in what he terms a “suburb called Brooklyn.” He grew up in a traditional home, but his father was a Yiddishist and sent him as a child to a Yiddish school on Eastern Parkway. However, he found it to be ah bissel shver. Besides being one of the youngest in his class, it was extremely difficult for him to learn to read or write the language. Eventually, Mr. Birnbaum was diagnosed with dyslexia, a learning disorder that affects areas of the brain that process language. People with dyslexia have difficulty reading due to problems identifying speech sounds and learning how they relate to letters and words. Back then, the resources to deal with these issues were very limited. “I couldn’t function in that environment due to my reading disability, which stayed with me my entire life,” he admits frankly. Yet, curiously, his ability to read and play music wasn’t affected by his dyslexia. “I was an oral learner and took to music easily, and I didn’t find reading musical cores to be a challenge,” Mr. Birnbuam explains. He developed his musical talent to a high degree. “I was a professional classical musician for 40 years.

I went to the Juilliard music school in Manhattan and played trumpet in a number of famous orchestras. I was one of the youngest members of the Metropolitan Opera, and at the age of seventeen, played the opening at Lincoln Center.” But about twenty years ago, Mr. Birnbaum began playing a new song.
Reminiscent of Rabi Akiva marrying Rochel, “I became frum and married my wife, Sorah, who had become frum thirteen years earlier. We moved to Teaneck, New Jersey.” Although his new life as a frum married man was sweet, there was one sour note. “Now I had to learn Hebrew — but how? I’d go to adult classes to try to master the davening, getting up at 5:00 a.m. to do so,” he says. But nothing helped; his dyslexia seemed to make that impossible. “People are very patient,” he says, “but most people expect that you can read. It was very uncomfortable.” The normally jovial and confident man began to recede. “I’d shy away from things. If I had a yahrtzeit, I’d ask someone else to daven.” It seemed like a life without being able to read the lashon hakodesh of the sefarim and siddur was his fate, until a
yeshuah arrived from an unexpected source. “About five years ago one of my grandchildren had similar issues: He was the youngest in his class and had a very bad case of dyslexia. He was struggling, and the teachers wanted him to repeat first grade.” Searching for a way to save his grandson from the frustrations he himself had grown up with, Mr. Birnbaum spoke to a friend who recommended Neuro Technics. But the boy was embarrassed to go by himself, so Mr. Birnbaum made him an offer that would change both of their lives. “I have the same issue,” he said, “so you know what? I’ll go first, and then I’ll take you along.” Besides helping his grandson, Mr. Birnbaum desperately wanted to help himself. “I felt like I just can’t be this old and be illiterate; I have to be able to read the davening! I have to be able to understand!” Neuro Technics introduced him to a regimen of techniques geared to teaching people with dyslexia or similar issues how to read. Like a thirsty man in a desert, Mr. Birnbaum dove into them, both alone and with his grandson — who, after a year and a half of therapy, flourished. “Now at age sixteen, he’s getting straight A’s and is tremendously motivated,” boasts the proud zeidy. The techniques were effective, but demanding. To succeed, especially at this advanced age, required a lot of effort and commitment. To maintain and improve his Hebrew reading level required hours of daily practice. But Mr. Birnbaum’s musical career gave him just the tool he needed. “To succeed as a musician, one of the most important
“PEOPLE ARE VERY PATIENT,” HE SAYS, “BUT MOST PEOPLE EXPECT THAT YOU CAN READ. IT WAS VERY UNCOMFORTABLE.” 200

techniques is repetition. The finest musicians take the simplest notes and go over them again and again to refine their skill.” Applying that same discipline and diligence, “I’d read the same words over and over again — Ashrei… yoshvei… veisecha… — at a very slow pace until I gained fluency. As a musician, I could be in my practice room for eight hours a day; it never bothered me. I took that attribute and applied it to gaining the skills to learn and daven.” Mr. Birnbaum’s courage and diligence have rightfully made him a role model for others facing similar challenges. “Adults who have dyslexia have to first fight the embarrassment of not being able to read and write at their age. When I meet people with the same problem I have, I tell them what I went through. They understand what I’m talking about.” While he encourages others, he never sugarcoats the effort involved. “I tell them that it isn’t going to come easily or naturally. You have to work at it. There’s no magic bullet. You have to sit down and practice, day in and day out. The issue improves, but it never fully goes away. It’s a slow process, but the reward is when you can read Tehillim, daven Shacharis, Mincha and Maariv, and feel that you have 99% of the words down. It’s a feeling of satisfaction. “Eventually, you get to a certain level of fluency where you can stop focusing on

the technique and start to focus on connecting with Hashem. As in music, you reach the level where you don’t have to focus on the piece of music, but you can focus on being a musician, on the entire orchestra. When I daven with a minyan, it’s like I’m davening with my ‘symphony orchestra’ — and I’m part of it! It’s very exciting.” Yet as his reading and davening career skyrocketed, his musical career plummeted. “When I became frum, I had to give up most of my music venues,” he says. “I’d be playing for Broadway musicals, and someone would call and say, ‘I can give you a month’s worth of work: two shows on Friday, three on Saturday.’ Then I’d tell them, ‘Okay, but there’s Shabbos, so I can’t do Friday or Saturday. Then there’s yom tov…’ When you cancel ten dates of the month, and you can only do one or two, the contractor says, ‘You know what, I’ll call you back.’” Though the musician’s paychecks stopped coming, Hashem made sure to fill the void. “I married up,” he quips. “My wife is a financial planner, who became a supportive kollel wife. She’s a tremendous spark plug and an eishes chayil.” Indeed, Mr. Birnbaum’s daily learning schedule would make a yungerman half his age proud. After his daily 7:00 “slow minyan,” he comes home at about 8:15 to learn the Daf, then learns via Zoom from 9:15 to 2:45. “When I’m on break, I do the

daf halacha and the daf mishnayos. I learn six or seven hours during the day, and then I have night seder, reviewing the Daf Yomi and daf halacha.” His amazing achievements are the fruit of both hard work and the proper attitude. When asked what message he would like to give over to others struggling to grow in learning, he answers with smiling but determined eyes, “Do the best that you can do. It may not be what someone else does, but never compare yourself to anybody else. That’s not what Hashem is looking for. “Each of us can become like Aaron and Moshe if we try to fulfill our own potential 100%, just like they did. It’s about the ameilus; you don’t have to accomplish everything, but you have to try. “Eventually, I’ll be able to read all of Tehillim, then I’ll try to memorize the kapitlach, and that will improve my davening. That’s the learning, that’s what will help bring Moshiach, that’s what Hashem wants, that’s the way we’re supposed to go.” If we can all follow Mr. Birnbaum’s inspiring lead, we’ll quite likely be hearing the heilege music in the Beis Hamikdash sooner than we think.

HOW ONE YOUNG BOY RUNS AN ESTABLISHED BOOKBINDING BUSINESS, GIVING RENEWED LIFE TO OUR SACRED SEFORIM B Y :
P E R R Y
Meet Shulem, an impressive young man, all of thirteen years young. As he is an active cheder student, it’s tough for us to find some quiet time to talk. When we finally do, it is truly enlightening to hear him animatedly describe his growing enterprise of seforim binding, and his youthful energy reflects the confidence with which he devotes his skills to this unique avodah. 208

I’ve heard some incredible things about your bookbinding handiwork. It must be a true privilege to be able to take care of Hashem’s “library.” Can you tell us when and how you began to develop a passion for this profession?
Sure. Toward the end of last year, I began figuring out how to work the machinery we have at home, which my parents originally purchased for my older brother who would bind our family’s seforim and books. I found that I really had a knack for it and also enjoyed the process of binding. How did that turn into a professional business?
At the start of the current school year, I heard that our menahal (in Satmar cheder) was looking for someone to bind seforim, and so, after a lot of practice, I went over to him and let him know that I’m ready to accept work.

So do you repair seforim belonging to the cheder?
No, I bind seforim the boys bring from home for learning. Oh, so it’s a service for other boys. Do you take the seforim home to work on them?
Yes. My supplies are all at home, and that’s where I do the binding. I get home from cheder after six p.m. and that’s when I get to work. So is this “business” exclusively for your fellow chedermates, or do you have other customers as well?
No, I strengthen and repair books and seforim for many others as well. Another large source of work are shuls. I often see signs in batei medrash announcing that they’re seeking an experienced “binder” to maintain their siddurim and seforim, and I approach the gabbaim to let them know I can do it.

Additionally, friends and families in our neighborhood also give me seforim to bind, as well as books! People like to have old books repaired, and it’s also good to bind brandnew books so they stay neat and beautiful. Do you advertise at all?
No, there’s no need. I’m busy, baruch Hashem. Seems like you’ve had a successful start! Now let’s get technical. Can you explain the basic process of how you bind the books?
In order for you to understand how it works, let me first list the basic supplies I use. First let’s talk about tape. I’ve found that what works best is a roll of black binding tape and a roll of white binding tape, each measuring 1 inch in the width, as well as a separate roll of black binding tape that’s 2 inches in the width. I’ll also need a binding needle, which is longer and bulkier than a regular sewing needle and comes in a myriad of sizes, depending on preference. Next we’ll need some bookbinding thread, which is thicker than standard sewing thread. Finally, the main tool — whose purpose is to puncture holes in the book spine — is either of two things. The better option, which I’m fortunate to have, is a simple machine that has a sort of drill bit that rapidly moves downward on its own when I turn a side handle.

One can use a conventional drill in place of the machine, but a drill is harder to control and ultimately takes longer. It is good enough for a beginner to use, but once you have a nice stack of books to bind, it can get tiring… Okay, now that we can envision the standard supplies you work with, tell us what happens next.
Sure! First I open the sefer with care and gently stick the 1-inch white tape onto the inside fold of the front cover by putting half onto the cover and half onto the first page. Then I repeat the same steps on the inside back cover. After that, I’m ready for the fun part, which involves the drilling. First I place the book onto a designated shelf on the machine and rotate the lever by hand. This causes the drill bit to swiftly turn and puncture holes in the book spine. Then I move downward and create a new hole each time I turn the handle. Now we have holes going through the side of the book, as well as through the tape, and we’re ready to reinforce it with thread. I’m with you! Sounds like careful and exciting work all at once. So what happens next?
It truly is! At this point I double-thread the needle with a knot at the end of the loop, and begin sewing from the bottom hole from the outside of the book spine. I go in and out upward, and when it reaches the top hole, I sew downward, meeting each hole again. Then I finish at the bottom with a good knot. Finally it’s time for the finishing touches! The 2-inch black tape, placed diagonally, is used to cover the corners. Then I use the 1-inch black tape to cover the top and bottom of the spine border, and I also cover the inside and outside

quite costly, but now I use the revenue to continue stocking up.
And that’s a wrap! Or should we say a bind? Wow, it truly looks professional, and your clarity is refreshing. How long does it take for you to complete one book or sefer?
Sounds like a great price for your customers. When did you start asking for pay?
I’d say by now around seven minutes. Experience really is the key. I’ve already bound around 500 seforim in the past year alone! Wow, that’s a lot of work! And how much do you charge for this delicate labor?
I charge $2 for each book. Initially, my parents provided me with the money for the necessary supplies, as they can be
When I officially started to bind for the cheder. By then I had the necessary experience and felt that my work had value. I’m just wondering what you do if someone gives you a really worn out sefer or book to bind. Is it harder to repair?
Oh, that reminds me of one more tool I have. It’s an instrument that helps hold the book real tight so I can sew it up well. Can you share with us where you generally buy your supplies? I think our readers will “want to try this at home”!
I usually buy whatever I need at School Depot or RHP (Rockland Hardware & Paint Supply) in Monsey. For those who would like to try their hand at it, I recommend first starting with a regular drill in order to puncture the holes; the machine is not necessary for a beginner. And I’m sure you’ll enjoy it! It feels great to give new life to seforim. You truly are a hardworking young man with a flourishing enterprise. Thank you for sharing your story and advice with our readers! We wish you a lot of hatzlacha in cheder, in this profession, and in all areas!

It’s
Thursday morning, bright and early, even before the younger children have been shuffled off to their respective buses, when my oldest daughter and I climb into a car bound for Rahway, New Jersey. Anticipation fills the air, and my daughter clutches her camera, excited to be missing a day of school to peek behind the scenes at the empire built by Rabbi Meir Zlotowitz, z”l, and Rabbi Nosson Scherman, with the help of Rabbi Sheah Brander. We’re headed to ArtScroll.

had an invitation business at the time (named ArtScroll, of course), and he self-published the book after several publishing houses turned him down, stating there’d be no buyers. Proving those predictions wrong, the sefer on Megillas Esther sold tens of thousands of copies in short order, leading Rabbi Zlotowitz to follow it up with a commentary on Megillas Rus shortly thereafter. Today, ArtScroll is synonymous worldwide with Torah-true literature. There are currently over 3,000 titles to its name, with millions of books

printed since its inception. “What’s the most printed sefer?” I ask Rabbi Hisiger. Pausing to think for only a moment, he reaches to the shelf behind him and pulls out the iconic blue Stone Chumash, sharing that this volume is one of the top selling ArtScroll volumes of all time. I’m not surprised. The Stone Chumash is a staple in almost every shul. Other staples, of course, are the Schottenstein Gemaras, as well as the many commentaries on Tanach, ranging from Rashi to the Ohr Hachaim. Rabbi Hisiger pulls out a volume of the ArtScroll Tosafos, showing me the intricacies of the elucidation. “Tosafos is extremely complicated, and to really understand it, you need not just translation, but also context and background information.” He flips to the front of the sefer and points to a list of talmidei chachamim who worked on this one volume. The list is long indeed. “Each scholar adds a layer of information,” he explains. These scholars, who comprise the staff of the Mesorah

Many of them do it from their own homes, though the Mesorah Heritage Foundation maintains a wing in the Rahway building for those who choose to work at the office. “How do you meet that expense?” I ask, realizing that sales might not cover the salaries of so many scholars. Rabbi Hisiger explains that the Mesorah Heritage Foundation was inspired by Professor Joel Fleishman, who approached Rabbi Meir Zlotowitz, asking how ArtScroll could produce such works at a moderate price. Rabbi Zlotowitz chuckled and answered, “With long hours and frequent borrowing.” The professor advised Rabbi Zlotowitz to create a nonprofit foundation to cover the costs, and thus the Mesorah Heritage Thread used for stitching book pages together

For the price of a dedication, one is able to memorialize a loved one, support Torah scholars and be marbitz Torah l’rabbim. Can there be any better deal? It’s not only in-depth textual learning that ArtScroll provides; it’s inspiration in many forms. Biographies, kosher cookbooks, storybooks, books on Jewish thought… The list is endless. If it’s authentically Jewish and in print, chances are that ArtScroll Publications had a hand in it. Though cookbooks are currently the most popular genre, Rebbetzin Kanievsky remains one of the most popular books of the last decade — a fact soon confirmed in the printing room, where another batch of it is slated for print. Before we head that way, we peek in on the editorial team, the graphics team and the typesetting office. We also see the legendary Rabbi Nosson Scherman, general editor of ArtScroll, who smiles in greeting as we pass his office.

excellence, ups the fun while involved in the serious work of providing quality reading material for the masses. As we exit the offices and enter the printing room — or “the bindery,” as it’s called in ArtScroll land, I’m struck by its cleanliness. It is reminiscent of Costco in size and design, but despite the industrial vibes, the place is practically spotless. We follow Rabbi Hisiger as he weaves among the machines, cheerfully greeting all the workers on shift. They each light up and return the greeting, feeling valued and respected. Soon we reach a room filled with gigantic rolls of paper. Rabbi Hisiger points to one bale, telling me it weighs 500 pounds. Turning around, we see the printing machines, their hungry mouths being fed with streams of white. On the other side emerge what have now become sheimos, the holy words of Torah having appeared, black on white. At the end of the machine sit piles of completed seforim, though lacking binding or cover. These flat sheets still have several more machines to visit. ArtScroll does everything on premises, and running the entire operation from submissions to shipping gives the publishing house unprecedented control over its products, allowing them to print batches as small or large as 228

demand requires. The bindery functions 24 hours a day, five days a week, constantly churning out seforim. Despite the sheer number of books being printed, quality control is very important, and each one is inspected carefully before it leaves the warehouse. As we continue our tour, tracing the journey of a sefer, we move from machine to machine. There is a machine that folds the pages and stitches them together, another that attaches a binding, and others that print the cover, fasten it to the cardboard backing, and then emboss it in gold as needed. There is also a machine that slices to size the vinyl that will become the covers of the iconic Hebrew/English seforim. “How much do these machines cost?” I wonder, and Rabbi Hisiger reveals that they’re priced in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. When we arrive at the machine that produces the covers, he notes that this one costs more than a million dollars. Seeing the expenses that go into creating reading material, it occurs to me that the price of printed books is truly justified… One of the most interesting parts of the tour is when we see gloved workers dabbing paint-covered sponges on the edges of unbound Embossing plate seforim. It takes special 230

training to do it perfectly, I am told. And for what purpose are the edges of these Gemaras painted? “Simply for beauty,” Rabbi Hisiger says. After all, learning Torah is a beautiful mitzvah, and learning from a beautiful sefer is certainly hiddur mitzvah. Beauty abounds where there is Torah. Our tour nearly over, we exit the printing room and peek into the wing reserved for the scholars. There are several comfortable and quiet offices here, set aside for those who choose to do their holy work at the ArtScroll building itself. On our way out, we pass through a hallway lined with photos of famous Jewish personalities. I spot Rabbi Nachman Seltzer, Rabbi Yitzchok Dovid Grossman and Rabbi Y.Y. Reinman, among others. “When I came to ArtScroll, I had an idea to interview the people behind the magic here,” Rabbi Hisiger tells me. “Inside ArtScroll,” a program that explores the writers behind the famed ArtScroll volumes, has its own green screen studio where the interviews are recorded. Aside from some props, the entire room is painted a garish green, but that background is swapped out with the help of graphics, leaving the viewer to see only pleasant surroundings. I find it fascinating that ArtScroll, anchored in ancient texts, is so sophisticated and up to date. From its uberclassy offices, to the powerful machinery, to its recording studio, ArtScroll Publications has kept up with the times, making the timeless treasures of the Torah easily accessible to us today. As our tour winds down, my daughter and I see a yeshivah class arriving, bringing fresh-faced youngsters to experience the process of book creation for themselves. Let them be excited, I think. Let them see how the Torah is timeless, spanning thousands of years and thriving here, even in Rahway, New Jersey. And let them, please Hashem, let them be the next devoted link in the chain of transmission. It is for them — and it is for Him — that the ArtScroll empire was built. Vinyl + cardboard = covers

Do you remember when duct tape art was all the rage? You might even have some brightly colored rolls of the sticky stuff left. But the handy guy’s toolbox is still the place most rolls of duct tape call home, because this tape has superhero status in terms of getting things fixed. If you’re a duct tape enthusiast, try collecting glow-in-the-dark duct tape, doublesided duct tape, duct tape craft kits… and of course, duct tape in every color of the rainbow. The Greatest Thing Since Duct Tape It takes a mother’s caring to see the necessity of an invention. Vesta Stoudt had two sons in the army during World War II, and she worked in arms manufacturing. The containers of ammunition she worked on were closed with simple paper tape that could rip, making it hard for a soldier to access his ammo in the middle of a battle. Now, this wouldn’t do for Vesta’s soldier sons. She wanted to create a strong, cloth-based tape that would stick well and open easily for use on the ammunition boxes. She wrote a letter to the president, who made her idea happen, and voila! Soon army-green duct tape rolls were given to every soldier, who found endless uses for the strong tape.

Duck, Duck, Goose! Duct tape was first called duck tape, because water rolled off the waterproof tape “like water off a duck’s back.”
Don’t Do Ducts With Duct Tape It took one guy to find that “duck tape” worked wonderfully on his air ducts for the company to switch the name to duct tape — and change its color to silver, to match the ductwork. Guess what? Today duct tape has been found to be the worst duct sealer out there, so much so that using it on ducts is a building code violation. That’s not to say that duct tape doesn’t seal well — it does! However, it wasn’t built to stand up to the extreme temperature changes that ducts are exposed to. The solution? Aluminum foil tape is recommended instead.
By: Chaya Blustein
Duct Tape Does it All Duct tape truly is a man-made wonder. Try making a duct tape bridge — yes, it’s possible! The people who tried it found their duct tape bridge was fully usable. You can lift a 5,000 pound car using duct tape; it’s that strong. And NASA keeps rolls of duct tape in outer space to hold things down in zero gravity and in case of emergency. Duct tape has been used to make usable kayaks, canoes, rafts, compasses and slings for wilderness injuries. So wherever you go, whether land, sea or space, make sure your duct tape comes along with you.
Queen of Tape Anna Dominguez is known as the “Queen of Duct Tape” for her prolific duct tape creations. She can make lifelike portraits of people using only colored duct tape as her medium. Some of her tape art has taken over 300 hours to create, and she decorated the windows of the observation deck at 360 Chicago’s 94th floor with a unique duct tape creation. If you want a unique wall-hanging, perhaps a duct tape wall art is the way to go!
The Art of Duct Tape Duck brand duct tape holds an annual duct tape festival, in the Duct Tape Capital of the World: Avon, Ohio, Duck’s hometown. At the festival, duct tape sculptures like a Rubik’s Cube and a bear are exhibited for visitors, many of whom arrive sporting duct tape clothing, of course! Duck also distributes duct tape craft kits to all the guests who show up.
