If anyone was 
to tell us that in 
2013 we would 
still be involved 
in this project, 
we would have 
laughed at the 
idea.  In Feb. 
2006, six months 
aft er the expul-
sion of 1,600 
families from Gush Katif and destruc-
tion of their homes and businesses, we 
were made aware that there were young 
people anxious to marry but their par-
ents did not have the means to make the 
weddings and provide basic household 
items for these couples to set up their 
new homes.
    Th us was born the Gush Katif Kal-
lot Project, which has provided to date, 
basic household items and a cash gift  to 
each of the chatanim and kallot of Gush 
Katif who turn to us for help.  Even 
seven years later, there are still many 
families struggling fi nancially, and 
coping with PTSD and medical prob-
lems far exceeding the general popula-
tion.  With poorly planned legislation, 
the Israeli government has not covered 
all compensation for homes and busi-
nesses, and has certainly not dealt with 
the medical and psychological ramifi ca-
tions of its wicked actions.
    Th ough meant to be a temporary 
project, we are witness to the genuine 
fi nancial need and emotional support 
that we provide with this special chesed.  
In recent years we have had to reduce 
the gift  package from $1,800 to $1,000 
due to economic downturn and dif-
fi culty in raising funds.  Every penny 
raised goes to the project as we have no 
“offi  ce” expenses.  We are committed to 
continuing this project until there is no 
longer the need.
     Th e families repeat all the time that 
we are the only ones who still remember 
them and their continued diffi  culties.  
Please allow us to continue to help them 
marry off  their children honorably and 
generously.
•  Make a virtual shower for a Gush 
Katif Kallah in your home or commu-
nity
•  Twin  a  simcha  of  yours  with  a 
wedding of a Gush Katif chatan or kal-
lah
•  Send us your generous donation in 
memory of a loved one, or in merit of a 
Refuah Shlaima for someone you know
     Regarding a Refuah, the Steipler 
Gaon, zt’l, explained that in our morn-
ing tefi llot, “Ailu Dvarim She’Adam 
Ochel Perotaihem ....” the mitzvah of 
Hachnassat Kallah comes between Bi-
kur Cholim and Levayat Hamet.  Th is 
is a strange placement for a happy mitz-
vah.  Th e Steipler explained that the 
reason is, this mitzvah has the power to 
be a buff er between Bikur Cholim and 
Levayat Hamet.  Th at is, it provides the 
merit of the refuah in order that there 
will  not  have  to  be  a  levaya,  G-d  forbid.

CHEESE CALZONE
Calzones are surprisingly easy to make and, 
not surprisingly, absolutely delicious. Savo-
ry or sweet, these calzones can be served as 
a main dish or a side dish for a dairy meal, 
depending on how big you make them.
MAKES 8–10 CALZONES
Dough
:
4 cups fl our
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1 tablespoon sugar
½ teaspoon salt
1 egg
5 tablespoons vegetable oil
1½ cups milk, lukewarm
1 egg, beaten
Sweet cheese fi lling
1 package farmer cheese
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla sugar
½ cup sugar
¼ package vanilla instant pudding mix
½ cup canned crushed pineapple - optional
Savory spinach-cheese fi lling:
9 ounces frozen spinach, 
defrosted
1 cup cream cheese
1½ cups grated mozzarella 
cheese
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
½ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1/8 teaspoon ground black 
pepper (or to taste) 
Method:
   To prepare the dough, in a large bowl, with 
an electric mixer, combine the fl our, yeast, 
sugar, salt, egg, oil, and milk. Mix until a soft  
dough is formed.
   Smear the dough with oil and cover with 
a towel. Let rise in a warm place until dou-
bled in size approximately 1½ hours. Punch 
down and let rise a second time for an ad-
ditional half hour. Punch down again.
To prepare the sweet fi lling, in a medium 
bowl, combine the cheese, egg, vanilla sug-
ar, sugar, pudding mix, and pineapple.
   To prepare the spin-
ach fi lling, in a medium 
bowl, combine the 
spinach, cream cheese, 
mozzarella, egg, garlic, 
salt, and black pepper.
Preheat the oven to 350º 
F (175º C). Line 2 bak-
ing sheets with baking 
paper.
   To assemble the cal-
zones, divide dough into 8–10 equal parts. 
On a fl oured surface, roll each ball of dough 
to form a round disc of ½-inch (2 cm.) 
thickness. 
   Spoon a layer of fi lling on half of the 
rolled-out dough, leaving a small border 
around the edge. Fold the dough in half 
over the fi lling and seal the edges with moist 
fi ngers. 
   Transfer the calzones on the lined baking 
sheets. Brush with beaten egg.
   Bake until golden, about 20 minutes.

Getting to know.....
David Wright 
- NY Mets STARTING ALL-STAR 3rd Baseman
By: Ephraim Fischbein 
of The Country Vues
 
Full Name – David Allen Wright • Born – Norfolk, Virginia  on 
December 20, 1982 • Height & Weight – 6-0, 210  • 
Favorite City To Visit – My hometown, Tidewater, Virginia • 
Car I Drive – Lincoln • Favorite Athlete – Anyone who plays 
for my fantasy football team. I’m a big fan of fantasy football! • 
Player I’d Love to Talk Baseball With – To talk hitting with 
Tony Gwynn would be a treat. • Life After Baseball – Coaching 
little league somewhere. If Not a Baseball Player – I probably 
would have been a police officer like my dad or an engineer like 
my brother. • Players who have helped me at the start of 
my career – Joe McEwing, Cliff Floyd and Mike Cameron were 
all great to me when I was called up to the Major Leagues. • 
Hero Growing Up – Cal Ripken, Jr. of the Baltimore Orioles • 
Behind My Back People Say – That I’m a good person and an OK baseball 
player. • Influences – My parents who sacrificed much time for me. They 
took me to little league games and practice. They were great role models. • Advice – To have fun 
with what you are doing. It seems like just yesterday I was called up and now 7-8 years later, it’s 
passing by so quickly, so I try to have fun each and every day with what I am doing. • Situation I 
Thrive In – I love to have the bat in my hands late in the game with runners on base! • Any 
Pre-Game Routines – I like to get to the ballpark the same time, eat the same foods and do the 
same stretches. • Biggest Disappointment So Far – To not have accom-
plished so far what I feel we should have.

  To Any Of Our
Showering, Bathing and Swimming 
Unnecessary showering, bathing or swimming is forbidden 
during this time.
• Showering to remove dirt or sweat is permitted. Th e 
showering time must be limited to what is needed and the 
water may only be as hot as is necessary to remove the dirt 
or sweat.
• For mitzvah purposes, showering and bathing with hot 
water is permitted. According to many opinions, this 
includes taking a shower as usual in honor of Shabbos.
• Men who use the mikvah every single Friday may use it 
this week as well  as long as the mikvah is not hot. 
• Swimming for a therapeutic purpose is permitted during 
Th e Nine Days.
• Children under the age of six may swim in a  kiddy pool or 
run through a sprinkler but this may not be done 
as a group or in a public location.
Food Limitations
Wine, grape juice, beef, chicken and any of their derivatives 
may not be consumed during this time.
• In this context, the defi nition of   derivatives is  if it would 
make a consumer fl eishig, and in the context of 
wine, if its taste is discernible.
• Th ese foods are permissible at a meal honoring a mitzvah 
such as the Shabbos meals, a bris or pidyon haben.
• Th ese foods should not be fed to children (of any age) un-
less it is necessary for their health.
Siyum 
A siyum is a meal that celebrates a completion of a sig-
nifi cant book of Torah. Th is includes a Gemara tractate, a 
seder of Mishna, or a book of Tanach that was studied with 
the Rishonim. Since this meal celebrates a mitzvah, it may 
include meat and wine.
• One should not rush to complete a book in order to make 
a siyum specifi cally during this time. Likewise, one 
should not celebrate the completion with a festive meal if he 
does not normally do so the rest of the year.
• Up until the week in which Tisha BAv falls, all guests 
that would normally be invited throughout the year may 
participate.
• During the week in which Tisha BAv falls, only those who 
have completed the texts, their immediate family and an 
additional minyan of men may be included. In institutions 
that all members usually eat together (such as a camp,) all 
may participate in the siyum meal.
Havdalah 
   During Th e Nine Days, the wine or grape juice used for 
havdalah is preferably given to a young child to drink. 
• Th is child should be too young to understand the concept 
of mourning but old enough to  comprehend the concept of 
making blessings - approximately six years old.  
• Th e child does not recite his own blessing before drink-
ing but relies on the Hagafen that  was mentioned during 
havdalah. 
• If no child is available, one should drink the wine himself.
• Some have a custom to use beer for havdalah during this 
time.

 The Torah teaches us, 
“U’shmartem es mitzvosai v’asisem 
osom – You should guard My mitzvos 
and perform them.”  Rashi explains 
the word u’shmartem to refer to the 
study of the mitzvos and the meaning 
therefore would be that we can only 
properly fulfi ll the mitzvos if we learn 
how to do them correctly.  Thus, the 
Mishnah in Pirkei Avos teaches us that 
a boor, an ignoramus, cannot be a yirei 
cheit, a sin fearing person, because his 
is not familiar with the laws.  So, for 
example, we cannot fulfi ll properly the 
mitzvah of prayer without studying the 
defi nitions of the words of our prayers.  
So too, we cannot converse correctly if 
we haven’t studied the laws of Lashon 
Hara.  And it goes without saying that 
we cannot observe Shabbos properly 
without learning the complexities of 
the thirty-nine prohibited labors of 
Shabbos.  Perhaps, Rashi also means 
something else as well.  It is only with 
the proper study of the mitzvos that 
we can perform them feelingly and 
meaningfully for, if we haven’t studied 
the reasons behind the mitzvos, then 
our performance will be robot-like and 
bland.
  The Chayei Adam introduces 
another fundamental lesson from 
our verse.  He says that the word 
u’shmartem also means to anticipate 
as when the Torah tells us about 
Yaakov.  “V’aviv shomar es hadovar 
– And his father (Yaakov) looked 
forward to the matter (the fulfi llment of 
Yosef’s dreams).”  The Chayei Adam 
elaborates that, as much as possible, we 
should avoid doing mitzvos on the spur 
of the moment.  Rather, we should take 
a little time in anticipation to prepare 
for them.  In that way, he says, we 
will do them thoughtfully rather that 
mechanically.
  The Gemora in Berachos tells us 
that the Chasidim HaRishonim, the 
ancient pious ones, used to spend a 
shaah preparing themselves before 
davening.  Surprisingly, this is 
mentioned in Shulchan Orech.  The 
classic  defi nition  of  shaah  is  an  hour 
though nowadays the majority of 
people don’t even spend an hour on 
their prayers.  However, the word shaah 
is also translated as a moment – for the 
word shaah also means to turn, as in 
the posuk, “V’el minchoso lo sha-asah 
– To his meal offering He did not turn.”  
It takes only a moment to turn and it is 
for this type of shaah that the Shulchan 
Orech is referring.  We all must spend 
at least a moment before praying to 
contemplate that we are now standing 
in front of Hashem and talking to Him.  
Similarly, we should take a moment 
before putting on tefi llin to think that 
we binding our hands and binding our 
minds to the service of Hashem.
  One of my favorite examples of 
this discipline is a story concerning 
the Skulena Rebbe.  He was once seen 
going to a public restroom.  Upon 
coming out, he went right in again and 
then came back out again.  When asked 
about this, he explained that as he left 
the restroom, he saw that no one else 
was there and he wanted to turn off 
the light to save money for the public.  
Now, this is a mitzvah of hashovas 
aveidah, returning 
something that 
would have been 
lost to the public.  
He didn’t want to 
do this mitzvah 
without doing 
some preparation 
but he didn’t want 
to prepare in the 
restroom.  So, he 
went out, made his mental preparation, 
and went back in to shut off the light and 
then he came back out again.  Another 
classic example of such behavior is 
how Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach, 
Zt”l, Zy”a, used to keep a tiny container 
of water in his pocket.  Before entering 
his home, he would take out the water 
and apply some to straighten out his 
beard.  He would explain that since he 
lived in harmony with his rebbetzin, 
and the Talmud teaches us, “Ish v’isha 
sholom beineihem, Shechina shru’ah 
beineihem – A husband and wife who 
live in peace with each other, the 
Divine Presence is in their midst.”  
He therefore was straightening out 
his hair in preparation for receiving 
the Shechina.  The Chayei Adam 
concludes that he knows from personal 
experience that any time he did a 
mitzvah on the spur of the moment, his 
mitzvah observance suffered.
  Finally, the word u’shmartem can 
mean to pine for something and this 
too is the proper attitude for mitzvos.  
We should train ourselves to look 
forward doing our mitzvos.  The 
premier example of this attitude is the 
mitzvah of sefi ra.  That on a national 
level we demonstrate in unison an 
excited countdown towards Torah.  But 
this should be a mindset for all of our 
mitzvos.  We should look forward to 
the time we spend in shul rather than 
being the fi rst one to fold up our tallis 
and make it to the exit.  In the merit of 
fi ne  tuning  our  mitzvah  performance, 
may Hashem bless us with long life, 
good health, and everything wonderful.
THE RIGHT WAY TO DO OUR MITZVOS
by, Rabbi 
Moshe Meir 
Weiss
“We should 
avoid doing 
mitzvos on the 
spur of the 
moment. We 
should take a 
little time in 
anticipation 
to prepare 
for them...we 
will do them 
thoughtfully 
rather that 
mechanically.”
