I’m struggling so hard to keep up this facade when I’m not doing okay. Being a teen is hard enough, and being a teen with a chronic medical or mental health challenge is not at all fine.

It feels like no one else around me can relate to what I’m going through. I smile in public, but a part of me feels so alone.

POWERFUL FICTION

(Re: Power Tools, Issue 409)

I’m really enjoying Power Tools by Esty Heller. The people in the story are so real and relatable, they feel as familiar as my sister or my neighbor… or even myself. It’s eye-opening to view people’s behavior through the lens of a fiction story; I find myself acquiring a degree of insight that’s hard to achieve in real life when your emotions cloud the moment. And it’s also just plain fun to read a great fiction story. With so much on the market that is not appropriate for a frum household, I really appreciate your magazine and the fiction fix you provide every week.

(Re: Birchos Hashachar Contest, Issue 402)

Take Control of your Skin's Destiny

Take Control of your Skin's Destiny

For a long time, as a super busy mom, I davened just the minimum. Then several tragedies occurred, and the Vizhnitzer Rebbe, shlita, reminded us how important a woman’s prayers are and requested we try to daven the full Shacharis. I remember the overwhelming feeling I had, as I barely managed even the minimum before. But baruch Hashem, I put it on my morning schedule before breakfast and made it work! Even Erev Pesach or with a newborn, I make sure to daven, and it surely gives me extra siyata d’Shmaya in my day. Imagine if someone sent you a smoothie in the morning, or a long-lost friend called you — you would surely find the time to indulge. So find a few minutes to connect with Hashem and you’ll surely see the blessing in your day and life.

A MATTER OF INTEREST

(Re: Ribbis in Real Life, Issue 400)

Although long overdue, this letter is in reference to the article on ribbis several weeks ago.

I spoke to several talmidei chachamim about what was written in the article regarding not giving a child extra freeze pops and not babysitting an extra child when repaying a favor. These talmidei chachamim were aghast at the rulings stated in the article. What is the source for the rulings stated? It is important to be very careful when paskening for the public.

the Shulchan Aruch (Yoreh Deah, Hilchos Ribbos, siman 160, se’if 8), where it states that a person should not borrow something from his child and make an agreement to pay him back with ribbis; although everything a child acquires halachically belongs to his father, it is still assur to do so in order to prevent a child from being taught to do ribbis

The psak halacha for the babysitting story is based on the ruling of the scenario depicted in the next seif (Shulchan Aruch Yoreh Deah, Hilchos Ribbos, siman 160, se’if 9). The Shulchan Aruch tells of a person who asks his friend to work for him in is field, and it says that a person should not tell his friend to help him in the summer and offer that in exchange he will help his friend in the winter, because the work in the winter is more difficult. Since once a person has his friend work for him, he now owes his friend work, it is prohibited for him to repay him by doing harder work. This is a case of ribbis.

The ruling of this halacha applies to the story in the article. When a deal is made to exchange babysitting services, it is considered a regular job for which ribbis cannot be paid. Therefore, two people should not make a deal to babysit one child in exchange of babysitting for two.

Rabbi Chaim Friedman is the mechaber of the sefer Sar Hilchos Ribbis. For additional ribbis-related questions, Beis Hora’ah L’hilchos Ribbis can be reached at 845-731-6029.

PARSHAS SHOFTIM

Money Minded

IN THE DAYS OF THE BRISKER RAV, Rav Chaim Soloveitchik, Zt”l, the government enacted decrees against the Talmud Torahs. Seeing no way out, the community leaders decided to slip some cash to the official in charge. Perhaps that would get him to cancel the new laws.

The problem was that this particular official was known to be very stringent regarding every detail of the law, and he would not accept bribes under any circumstances. The leaders surmised that in all likelihood, attempting to bribe him would only backfire. Instead of ruling in their favor, the official would probably inform the authorities of their subversion, or worse.

Rav Chaim Brisker came up with a plan. He announced that he would speak with the official in the only language that speaks to such individuals — the language of money.

The community leaders were afraid. If Rav Chaim Brisker would be caught attempting to bribe the official, the consequences would be severe, not to mention the chillul Hashem that would result.

“Let one of us risk our lives instead,” they suggested.

But Rav Chaim declined. “Don’t worry, I won’t put myself in danger, and I surely won’t endanger the entire community,” he said. “Please give me the money and I will take care of this matter.”

Money was raised, and Rav Chaim prepared to meet with the official. Despite it being a sweltering hot summer day, he donned his heavy fur coat.

Only after making it clear that he would not budge from his opinion did the official let Rav Chaim Brisker in. He was surprised to see the rav wearing his coat. “Are you not hot?” he asked.

“Of course I am hot,” the rav replied. “I was hot before I put on the coat, and now I am even hotter.”

“If so,” responded the official, “why are you wearing that coat?”

Rav Chaim explained, “Last night, I had a dream. I dreamt that today will be a cold day, with snowfall toward evening. When I awoke, I remembered the dream and decided to put on the coat so I will be prepared even before the flakes cover the ground.”

The official laughed. “Who ever heard such a thing? Look outside and see the gorgeous warm weather. Do you know which season we are in? Do you really believe it will snow in the middle of the summer?”

“Yes,” the Brisker Rav replied. “I have no doubt it will begin to snow today.” Then he added, “I am so convinced, I am even willing to bet on it!” Rav Chaim offered the exact amount of money that he had brought along with him.

Both sides agreed to the bet.

As the official watched Rav Chaim leave, he wondered to himself how it could be that the prominent rabbi of the Jews who was respected for his wisdom and intelligence could accept a silly dream as true. Deep down, he felt a tinge of

In this week’s parsha , Moshe instructs Klal Yisroel to pursue justice and appoint judges who will rule without corruption or favoritism. The pasuk highlights the prohibition against bribery: “You shall not take a bribe, for bribery blinds the eyes of the wise and distorts the words of tzaddikim” (Devarim 16:19).

We would assume that one who accepts bribery with the intent of bending justice is not a tzaddik . Why does the Torah tell us that bribery distorts the words of tzaddikim?

Where are you being for Sukkos?

anxiety. Could it be that there was truth to the rabbi’s dream? Would the rabbi win the bet? He waited out the day with bated breath.

As the sun set, he calmed down. The day had passed with no drop in temperature, just like any other hot summer day. The official worried that Rav Chaim would not return to pay the bet. “If necessary, we will send the police to bring him here!” he announced.

It wasn’t necessary. Bright and early the following morning, Rav Chaim Brisker arrived. With the cash in his outstretched hand, he said in a sorrowful voice, “You won the bet! I will not go back on my word. Here is your prize!”

The official happily took the money, and Rav Chaim Brisker left the room without saying another word.

Rav Chaim Brisker called the community leaders together and told them that the money was safely in the official’s hands. When they heard that the money had been “earned” justly, they were worried. “How will it help us?”

Rav Chaim was quick to placate them. “As long as the money was not in the official’s hands, we stood no chance at convincing him to annul the decree. But now that he received the money, regardless of how he got it, we can be sure that the decree will be lifted. Once a person receives money from another, the money changes his whole train of thought — without him even realizing it.”

Within a short time, the Brisker’s Rav’s prediction came true.

Obviously, one who accepts bribery solely for the sake of bribery would not be called a tzaddik by the Torah. But even a tzaddik can unknowingly come to rule improperly if a financial benefit to him is involved.

Even without any intent of bribery, a yerei Shamayim could be involuntarily blinded to the truth once he accepts money from a litigant. Once money enters one’s possession, his perspective is affected.

That’s the power of bribery. Money manipulates even unsuspecting minds.

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

Did You Know?

In the time of the Beis Hamikdash, towns with less than 120 residents had a beis din of three judges who could decide on financial disputes, but had no power to rule on life and death cases.

Towns with 120 residents or more had a Sanhedrin of 23 judges who were allowed to judge capital cases.

The official laughed. “Do you really believe it will snow in the middle of the summer?”

Officials Gather on Union Road to Discuss Local Traffic and Crime

Local officials representing New York State, Ramapo, Spring Valley and law enforcement gathered in Spring Valley to discuss significant issues affecting the Union Road area. The meeting was arranged by Congressman Mike Lawler and held on the morning of August 11.

The meeting was held on Union Road where Elm Street, Anthony Drive and Park Street all converge. The sounds of cars, buses and trucks whizzing by offered a real life illustration of the community’s concerns. Among those in attendance were Lawler, Senator Bill Weber, Assemblyman John McGowan, Ramapo Supervisor Michael Specht, Ramapo Police Chief Martin

Reilly, Spring Valley Police Chief Richard Oleszczuk, County Legislator Aron Wieder, Ramapo Highway Superintendent Fred Brinn, and Rockland District Attorney’s Office Chief of Detectives Pete Walker and Drug Task Force Director Matt Ryder.

Dozens of accidents have taken place on that stretch of Union Road, particularly at the Elm Road intersection, which feeds directly into Twin Avenue, essentially making it a fiveway intersection. The incidents have fallen under the jurisdictions of both the Town of Ramapo and the Village of Spring Valley, emphasizing the need for a joint collaboration to address the issue.

Possible solutions discussed included installing stop signs, a traffic light, or mitigating the flow of traffic by banning left turns or turning some streets into one-way streets. Lawler rejected the idea of installing a roundabout at the intersection, explaining that it would require the acquisition of significant amounts of property, including several houses, under the law of eminent domain, with Spring Valley and Ramapo officials deciding that a joint survey was the best approach to the problem.

Also on the morning’s agenda was the ongoing crime problem in the Twin Road area, which has become a center of drug activity in recent months. Walker stressed the importance of communal input, noting that civilian tips submitted anonymously to the District Attorney’s Office are extremely helpful. Also discussed were the ongoing difficulties faced by law enforcement in New York State, with current bail laws putting criminals back on the streets within hours, turning the possibility of any significant change into a lengthy process.

The two separate issues discussed at the roundtable share a common theme, with Lawler explaining, “We just want to make sure that our residents are safe.”

Ramapo’s Smart Streetlight Program Enters Phase 2

Ramapo shone brightly last week, with town-wide lighting improvements bringing Governor Kathy Hochul’s plan to replace half a million streetlights with state-of-the-art LEDs to the finish line three years ahead of schedule.

Elected officials joined with representatives of the New York Power Authority on the morning of August 8 to celebrate the culmination of the first phase of the lighting project in Ramapo, watching as a new smart streetlight was installed on West Maple Avenue at the corner of Smolley Drive. Nearly 4,000 new streetlights were installed throughout Ramapo, with another 1,300 older fixtures swapped for new LED models.

“We are doing everything we can with our partners, the New York Power Authority, on this great project to make this town a safer and better place for all of our residents,” said

While the celebration focused on illuminating darkened areas of Ramapo, County Executive Ed Day noted that the new streetlights also bring a safety component to the table.

“What this is really about is safety, security, and, let’s not forget, responsiveness,” observed Day, adding, “I’m a former police commander and one of the best defenses you can

“Ramapo has been a great partner,” said Chiaravalle. “This will improve safety throughout the town, improve pedestrian visibility and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.”

In addition to being more energy efficient, the new LED streetlights are dimmable, have instantaneous outage reporting and are equipped for additional features that may be added in the future, including weather sensors, cameras and other smart and safety features.

Listeria Concerns Prompts Ice Cream Recall

A popular line of soft serve ice cream has been recalled by the Food and Drug Administration after two hospitalizations were linked to the frozen treats.

power outages likely as early as 2025.

USA Today reported that the New York Independent System Operator, known as NYISO, said that having air conditioners running 24 hours a day will likely trigger brownouts or even blackouts during summer heatwaves with temperatures that top 98°. Until now, the state has relied on what are known as peaker-plants to cope with the increased demand for energy when the temperature soars, but 37 of those plants are due to be shut down because they are unable to meet new standards set by New York’s Depart of Environmental Conservation. According to the NYISO report, the state’s renewable energy program isn’t moving fast enough to fill the gap created by their closure, with the increased push toward the electrification of vehicles and buildings placing an even larger burden on the electrical grid, further exacerbating the problem.

In addition to highlighting potential issues, which will be particularly troublesome in New York City, the NYISO report explored possible solutions, which could include allowing some peaker-plants to remain open even as others are shut down. Hydroelectric power from Canada, which could arrive in the city by the spring of 2026, is another alternative that could close the energy gap in the long term.

Despite the report’s predictions, officials in Albany expressed confidence in the state’s ability to avoid power outages while still meeting its climate goals.

“We are committed to ensuring New Yorkers have a reliable and affordable power supply — and we can do this while accomplishing our nation-leading climate goals,” read a statement released by the Hochul administration. “Governor Hochul remains fully committed to rapidly decreasing emissions and setting an example for how clean energy and reliability can go hand in hand.”

Paroled Murderer Removed From Rockland

A paroled murder who had been living in a Hillcrest halfway house since the end of July is no longer staying in Rockland County, much to the relief of area residents.

Robert Chambers had been paroled to an Eckerson Road home on July 25 after serving 15 years behind bars on an assault conviction. That stint in prison was the second for Chambers, who was released from jail in 2003 after serving 15 years on a manslaughter and burglary conviction, which had earned him the nicknames “Preppy Killer” and “Central Park Strangler.”

County Executive Ed Day, a former NYPD commander, expressed his frustration early last week that Chambers had been sent to Rockland without any prior notification given, advising anyone who was approached by Chambers to call 911 or the Ramapo Police Department to report the incident.

But by August 10, Chambers was gone, with Monsey Scoop crediting law enforcement for his departure. According to New12 Westchester, Chambers is now living in a Queens halfway house where he remains under supervision until July 2028.

CHAPTER 19

Chevi bullies Fraidy at their grandparents’ Seder.

Only Mrs. Miller could pull off a joint Chol Hamoed outing with two families whose last desire was to go on a joint Chol Hamoed outing.

Really, there was no way to say no. Mrs. Miller was the greatest excuseneutralizer, and you could never argue with her logic. Especially when the excuses (“Chaim Tzvi is worried he won’t make it back on time for Mincha,” and, “You know how OZ is when he travels, he complains that he’s nauseous the entire way,” and, “Shana’s scared of boats”) were poor in the first place.

“We’ll be back way before the zman It’s a twenty-five minute drive. And Shana doesn’t have to go on any boat if she doesn’t want to, you’ll anyway stay behind with Shifra, right? Come on, Lani, don’t be lazy.”

What could she tell her mother? That she hadn’t enjoyed Riva’s company at the Seder?

She wondered if Riva had also tried

getting out of joining, but she obviously couldn’t ask her. If Riva had tried, she certainly hadn’t succeeded, because sometime midday, Lani found herself standing next to her sister at the shore, waving to their parents, husbands and kids as they rowed off in three little rowboats. Shana, to Lani’s frustration, hadn’t put up the slightest protest, and Lani couldn’t stand the triumphant look on her mother’s face as she’d gleefully jumped into the boat.

“One minute, where’s Fraidy?” Lani asked Riva as the boats pulled away. “I don’t see her on any boat.”

“She didn’t come along.”

“Huh?”

“She made plans with a friend to do plaster painting.”

“Uh, which friend?”

It was weird for Riva to say “a friend” when their daughters were classmates and both of them basically knew all the girls in the class.

“Shevy Schwartz.”

ThE PeRfEcT TrEaT FoR YoUr WaLkInG PaRtNeR!

“Oh. Aha. And you didn’t prefer she comes along with everyone here?”

“No.”

There was something in that no that told Lani to back off really quickly, so she did. She physically took a few steps back, and she started rocking the stroller containing a sound-asleep Shifra.

Riva was still facing the water, watching the rowboats shrink into the distance. They’d rented the boats for an hour, and Lani and Riva had stayed behind with their babies. That meant that for the next hour, the two of them would be standing around, together, waiting for the boats to return.

There was only so long Lani could rock a sleeping baby. And there was only so long Riva could rigidly stand facing the water without saying a word.

That meant that they would have to talk. And of course, when you wrack your brain to come up with something to talk about, your mind draws a stubborn blank.

She started rooting through the bags hanging from her stroller and pulled out a Ziploc with sliced apples. Food was always a great icebreaker, wasn’t it?

“Do you want some apples?” she asked Riva.

Riva seemed a little shocked at the question. “Um, okay,” she said. They moved a little further back and sat down on a bench together. The sound of chewing was amplified in the stifling silence, and finally Lani thought of something to talk about.

“My neighbor tells me that Yaakov helped her daughter with the plans for her house?”

Of course, she was hardly done asking her question when she realized it was the wrong topic to bring up, being that Riva knew this neighbor: She and Gittel Indig were sharing Maddie now.

But if Riva put it together, she didn’t say anything about the neighbor. She actually seemed relieved that they’d finally started a conversation. “Yes, he’s actually getting more and more into it. He was hired by a big-name architect to digitize his drawings, so he’s getting some good practice.”

“Oh, that’s great. So, um, like, are you going to leave your job now?”

“I wish. You don’t just leave a day job like that, obviously. There’s something about a secure income; it’s hard to give it up. Hopefully, when Yaakov starts his own business.... It

doesn’t happen overnight.”

There was something inexplicably irritating about Riva’s words, and Lani suddenly wished she hadn’t started this particular conversation. Riva, though, seemed perfectly comfortable talking, and she went right on. “It’s like this in many fields, but especially in architecture. The potential is huge — really, the sky, or maybe we should call it the skyscrapers?” She gave a little wink and continued, “is the limit. But you start small, accept all the boring work, and earning any money at this stage is just a bonus.”

The relief of making conversation shriveled in Lani’s chest. She watched Riva help herself to another apple wedge. The ice had certainly broken, for Riva at least.

Lani was secretly gratified when Shifra stirred. She all but banged the stroller into a sitting position so she could feed her a yogurt. She applied her entire focus to the very intricate task — spoon-mouthnapkin, spoon-mouth-napkin. Riva either got bored or uncomfortable, and she stood up and started strolling along the shore, texting someone, or at least pretending to. They didn’t make any more “conversation” until the boats finally returned.

Later that night, with the kids in bed and Mrs. Miller getting started on the cooking for the second days, Lani and Chaim Tzvi stepped outside to take a walk. Lani repeated the conversation she’d had with Riva at the water. “I don’t get it,” she finished off. “The Strohs are sleeping on mattresses bloated with cash, but they chas v’shalom can’t wait another day to get their entire loan back? They have a double income now, for goodness sake. I mean, they’re entitled to earn and save as much as they can, it’s none of my business. I just thought the idea of terminating the loan was that Riva wanted to quit her job.”

Chaim Tzvi patted his pocket, pulled out an envelope, glanced inside, then stuffed it into a different pocket. “Look, Lani, I know you’re upset. But one thing I learned from my line of work. You can’t lead other people’s businesses.”

“And also to judge your sister favorably,” Lani added. “I know that, Chaim Tzvi. I just… I know.” * * * * *

If a kid absolutely had to have a meltdown, fine, but did it really have to happen on a school morning, the day

IT WAS WEIRD FOR RIVA TO SAY “A FRIEND” WHEN THEIR DAUGHTERS WERE CLASSMATES AND BOTH OF THEM BASICALLY KNEW ALL THE GIRLS IN THE CLASS

CRANBERRY

Experts praise cranberries for their high nutrient content and many added health benefits. They are particularly rich in antioxidants, and they also have high levels of Vitamins C, E and K.

The best-known benefits of these berries:

 It can strengthen the immune system

 Good for the heart

Great at calming stomach discomfort

 Especially good for liver issues

Here’s a great recipe for a homemade cranberry drink that is very healthy and rich in beneficial nutrients:

 One ounce of cranberry juice concentrate

 One cup cold water

 Two large spoons of apple cider vinegar and

 One small spoonful of lemon juice Optional: For a great taste, add a small spoon of raw honey. Drink and enjoy!

 Above all, it can help prevent and treat urinary tract infections (UTI)

Cranberries are primarily taken by drinking the juice pressed from them. Only 5% of cranberries are eaten whole. Interestingly, 440 berries equal just one pound of weight. And 4,440 cranberries go into producing a gallon cranberry juice! That should give you an idea of how much nutrients are packed into each cup of juice.

Cranberry supplements are available for you to enjoy the benefits of cranberries without having to eat actual cranberries every day. Even more, you get even better results from cranberry supplements than from the berries themselves because a capsule can have more milligrams condensed inside over a cup of juice you also avoid the sugar and other additives that are usually found in commercial preparations of cranberry juice.

It is important to note that various types of cranberry juice are sold today, and some of them have never seen a cranberry. Ensure the label states that it contains “cranberry concentrate” or “real juice.” You should also know that cranberries are naturally slightly sour, so some cranberry products are loaded with sugar. Be sure to check the label and choose the product with the least sugar added.

after Isru Chag, when everyone had been out of school for too many days to count and there was already new laundry on top of all the Yom Tov laundry that wasn’t done yet? Did it?

“I’m not s-s-sitting in one classroom with her, I’m not,” Fraidy cried. “If she’s going to school today, I’m ss-staying home.”

Inhale, exhale. Active listening. “You aren’t going to school?”

“No!”

“You really don’t want to go to school if Chevi’s there.”

It sounded corny, but this mirroring method almost always worked. It made the child feel heard — which was what they needed most — and often even helped them clarify for themselves what bothered them and how they wanted to deal with it.

“I really don’t want to miss s-sschool. What should I do, Ma?”

Her stutter had improved over Yom Tov. This sudden regression was disturbing. Riva pretended not

RIVA COULDN’T THINK OF ANYTHING TO DO OTHER THAN ENCOURAGE FRAIDY TO REMAIN STRONG, AND GIVE HER SOME TOOLS FOR HOW TO REACT IF CHEVI TRIED HURTING HER

to notice and went right on, allowing Fraidy to lead the conversation.

“What do you think you should do?”

“Stay home!”

“Do you want to stay home?”

“We’re having the auction from our Pesach contest today. I don’t want to miss it.”

Riva waited for her to continue.

“I’m going to ignore her the whole day,” Fraidy said. “I don’t care.”

Fraidy was trying to convince herself, and Riva really had no idea what the right thing to do was. Staying home would serve as a bandage; it wouldn’t make the problem go away. Maybe the time she and Chevi spent apart would make everyone drop this craziness?

Riva couldn’t think of anything to do other than encourage Fraidy to remain strong, and give her some tools for how to react if Chevi tried hurting her.

But which tools? How do you stand up for yourself when someone belittles you like that?

The question teased her. Do you have any tools? Do you know how to stand up for yourself, to protect yourself from constant blame and shame?

Fraidy decided to walk with Riva. On the way out of the house, Riva stuck a candy bar into her daughter’s briefcase. Just a little something sweet, a small gesture of encouragement.

When they got to the school, Fraidy actually seemed to be doing pretty well.

She gave a casual wave and headed toward the entrance with a swift and steady gait.

It was Riva’s knees that suddenly felt weak. She watched the key chains on her daughter’s briefcase bounce, heard their faint jangle, fading as the distance between her and Fraidy widened.

She couldn’t take it. She couldn’t process the injustice, the absurdity, the cruelty. One human being inflicting shame and fear on another, for no reason. To gain some convoluted sense of satisfaction, or superiority, nothing more.

She couldn’t take it for Fraidy. She couldn’t take it for herself.

She couldn’t go to work.

The thought was so startling, it was like a gust of wind had swept past her, sending a tremor through her entire body.

She couldn’t — and with a resolute stride past the school building, she made up her mind: She wouldn’t.

Ten minutes later, she was back home. Yaakov was still there, spreading butter on Tzippy’s toast.

“Riva?” he asked, surprised. “Did you forget something?”

Riva dropped her bag on the counter and unzipped her jacket. “I’m not going to work today,” she told him.

“What’s the matter? You’re not feeling well?”

“I’m feeling just fine. Physically, anyway. I’ve just… had it.”

“Uh, so like, did you quit?”

“No. I mean, yes. I mean, I can’t go back.”

Yaakov put Tzippy’s plate on the table and washed his hands.

“I… I don’t know what to say. I guess that’s, um, great news? Like, we need to celebrate. Did you tell Mr. Gabioff?”

Riva gave a horrified gasp. “Oh, no!”

“So then… you didn’t actually quit. You’re just… playing hooky?”

Riva’s phone rang. “It’s him,” she whispered.

“So tell him.”

“I can’t.”

“Of course you can.”

“Can you answer?”

“Me? What should I tell him?”

“I don’t know, tell him I’m not

available.”

The phone stopped ringing.

Mr. Gabioff called again fifteen minutes later. Yaakov took the call and told him that his wife wasn’t available and wouldn’t be coming into the office that day.

“Or ever again,” Riva tacked on when he hung up.

“Well, how does that feel?”

How did it feel? It was supposed to feel liberating. She was supposed to feel light and heady and invincible.

But the sound of key chains jangling echoed in her ears, and all Riva felt was an overwhelming wave of exhaustion.

ACLOUD ON A STICK

BAILA BERGER

At about 6 p.m. on Sunday afternoon, the familiar loudspeaker would crackle through the neighborhood. “Cotton candy! cotton candy for one dollar!” I’d run to the window to watch the familiar white van park across the street and the cotton candy man step out. Before he could get his machine set up, there was already a cluster of kids standing around, watching or waiting for their sticky treats.

While I don’t recall being treated to his sugary puffs often, I can still hear his weekly call. He provided dozens of neighborhood kids with an iconic childhood memory.

How did this whimsical treat make it into the memories of children around the globe for more than a century?

DOCTOR FAIRY FLOSS

Perhaps he was looking for more customers in his clinic, or for a more noble treat, but it’s certainly ironic: Cotton candy is said to have been invented by a dentist!

Dr. William Morrison graduated dental school

in 1890. Just seven years later, he was the brains behind one of the most internationally acclaimed, kid-loved treats. Morrison, who lived in Nashville, Tennessee, teamed up with candy maker John C. Wharton to invent a prototype contraption that spun sugar into fluffy clouds.

His model was made of a heated, rotating bowl

Fun, flavorsome, and full of fluff — why reach for the clouds if you can taste ‘em?

with multiple holes. As sugar was poured inside, it caramelized and exited through the holes, turning into light strands that he called “fairy floss.”

His next step was to market his new kind of candy. In 1904, the duo introduced their delightful snack at the St. Louis World’s Fair. They brought along their fairy floss machine and served the treat in wooden boxes, at 25 cents apiece (that would be $8.57 today).

The sugary treats were an instant bestseller.

Fairy Floss wasn’t cheap, costing about half the rate of attending the fair itself, but people were intrigued. They clamored around the machine as it sputtered out airy clouds of sugar and could not help but splurge. A small taste was enough to earn rave reviews. More than 60,000 servings were sold at the fair, and over the next six months, a total of 68,655 boxes of fairy floss were sold.

Cotton candy, as fairy floss soon became known in the United States, has become a staple at concession stands at carnivals, circuses, and amusement parks ever since.

A SWEET SPIN

In truth, Morrison and Wharton weren’t the first to spin up this idea. Spun sugar has been around since the 15th century.

In 1574, when King Henry III of France visited Venice, he was honored with a platter of 1,000 unique items made of spun sugar.

As you can tell, this original form of cotton candy was an extravagant treat, reserved for royals and the rich. With no technology to spin sugar, Renaissance-era chefs in Italy figured out a way to achieve similar results by hand. They heated huge pans of sugar and manually twisted it into strings, which they draped over broom sticks. These crunchy strands and nests of sugar involved much hard work and were very expensive, far beyond the means of the public.

But in royal courts, this new confection attracted the attention

MADE IN TURKEY ON JULY 10, 2009, IT MEASURED 1,400 METERS

LONG (4,593 FEET, 2 INCHES) AND WEIGHED MORE THAN 650 POUNDS!

IT TOOK 6 HOURS AND 70 STAFF MEMBERS TO CREATE THE WORLD’S LONGEST COTTON CANDY.

Reg. $289.99

of the chefs, who were excited to learn this new technique. Soon, they grew proficient at creating lavish desserts made of sugar. A French cookbook named these creations Silver Web and Gold Web. The airy treats were probably worth their weight in gold!

A MAGICAL MOUTHFUL

It took several centuries and two Tennessee men to bring cotton candy to the masses.

With their new technology, the sugary treat became a global craze. Its international popularity is obviously given the long list of names in various languages. Americans call it cotton candy, the British say candy floss, and the French have dubbed it la barbe a papa, which means “Papa’s beard.” In Eretz Yisrael, kids jump for yambambam, and in the Netherlands they crave sugar spider.

In 1921, another dentist, Dr. Josef Lascaux of New Orleans, improved the machine’s design, and trademarked the name “cotton candy.”

In time, cotton candy machines grew more and more efficient. Today, a batch of cotton candy can be ready in less than 30 seconds, and commercial machines can whip up as many as six or

seven servings per minute (although the speed also depends on the skill of the person operating the equipment).

The most popular flavors in the United States are blue raspberry and pink vanilla, but a kaleidoscope of inimitable flavors exist, including banana, watermelon, and chocolate.

SWEETEN YOUR DAY

Back to the dentist’s chair, is cotton candy really bad for you?

Nobody will tell you that cotton candy is as good for you as fresh fruit, but you may be surprised to hear that it’s not as bad as you might think. With only one ingredient, a typical serving contains about 110 calories. That’s fewer calories and less sugar than a can of soda. It also has no fat content.

Are you the skeptical kind of mother who still doesn’t think cotton candy is okay? There’s one day a year designed especially for you! December 7 was officially nominated as National Cotton Candy Day, with no specific celebration program other than sinking little teeth into puffs of fluff and sharing paper sticks with swirls of magic with your friends. Enjoy!

Back in 2006, young Morgan Hartman and her family were vacationing, just “getting away from it all.” There were other kids staying in their hotel, and when a ball landed near Morgan, she excitedly headed toward it, eager to participate in their game. Instead of welcoming her, however, the crew of kids grabbed their ball and walked away. Morgan was devastated. The pain on her face haunted her father, Gordon Hartman, who yearned to see Morgan feel both safe and accepted in spite of her cognitive and physical disabilities. For weeks afterward he wondered if there was some place where everyone could feel included and have fun.

If not, he decided, he would be the one to build it.

Plans for a Park

Gordon Hartman was never one to shirk hard work. At the age of fifteen he’d started his own landscaping business, and by nineteen, had saved enough money to go into construction. Over the next two decades, Hartman’s business grew into the largest construction and development companies in San Antonio, Texas.

But his heart was elsewhere, and Gordon eventually sold those businesses to pursue his family’s dream of creating a more inclusive society for people with special needs. At first they opened a foundation, but after the ball incident, Gordon felt the urge to do more to actively break down barriers and simultaneously build people up. To that end, he called a meeting.

“I invited doctors and therapists and teachers and people who have special needs… and hundreds of people showed up. I thought, this is kind of cool because we don’t really know what we’re going to be talking about!” Hartman recalled. He came to the meeting armed with only blank paper and a dream, and presented the idea of a barrier-breaking recreational space. “If we build this park with the theory of trying to bring down that barrier, what would be in it?” he asked those assembled. The ideas started flowing and, more than eight pages later, the skeletal outline of Morgan’s Wonderland had taken shape.

Bringing the vision to life was the next step, and Gordon Hartman refused to think inside the box. His goal was not to develop a park that was geared specifically toward people with special needs, but to create a park that was inclusive of the entire family. When selecting an architectural team, he specifically hired people who had never worked on amusement parks in the past. He wanted visionaries who would be uninhibited by previous experiences. He wanted to dream big — and without boundaries. He wanted to make the impossible possible.

A Place Where Wheelchairs Fly

Morgan’s Wonderland opened in 2010, and though all its attractions can accommodate many medical needs (including ventilators), you wouldn’t know it. Aesthetically, it looks like any other park. But wheelchair users are able to ride their chairs straight into specially designed chariots that move up and down on the typical carousel, or circle high above the crowd in accessible gondolas on the Ferris wheel. There are also boats, trains and swings that accommodate disabilities, and pleasant staff members who are trained to patiently help clients aboard their rides — even if that means spending ten minutes helping them get settled. Some members of the amazing staff, in fact, are people with disabilities.

Despite the success of this amazing park, however, its location means super sizzling summer days, and that results in a reduction in traffic. To solve the low-flow issue, Gordon Hartman and his team opened up a second park right next door in 2017: Morgan’s Inspiration Island, featuring a waterpark that is accessible to everyone. Over at Shipwreck Island, visitors can engage in water battles, while Calypso Cave is all about making music while sopping wet. Rainbow Reef offers an allinclusive experience with warm water to accommodate those who have muscular or circulatory issues that preclude cold water play.

The fun doesn’t end. A third park was opened just two years ago, called Morgan’s Wonderland Sports Complex. This features inclusive and accessible baseball, football, basketball, tennis and volleyball courts.

It’s this incredible ability to accommodate that makes Morgan’s parks so wonderful; they’ve taken just about everything into consideration. Upon entry, caregivers are given the option of receiving waterproof electronic bracelets that are synced to security cameras so they can easily find a family member or client in case they become separated. They’re also offered waterproof wheelchairs in three sizes to ensure that expensive medical equipment doesn’t get damaged during play.

If that’s not impressive enough, here’s the clincher: All of this is provided free of charge for people with a special needs diagnosis. Admission works on the honor system, and if one claims to have special needs, they’re admitted to the park without paying a penny. “And if you lie about it, you have a special need,” Hartman quips.

No better place to spend quality time than in the Fleischmanns Mountains. Your dream getaway starts here!

How Do They Do It?

When the Hartmans realized their dream would have an opening price tag of $35 million, they weren’t fazed; they knew the vision was worthwhile. They also weren’t bothered by the fact that they’d be losing over a million dollars a year by giving free admissions. But they did need a solution. Aside from yearly fundraising, and admission fees for people without disabilities, Gordon Hartman runs a 75-acre soccer arena right next to the Morgan complexes. He specifically built it with a two-pronged goal: to raise money to cover the costs of running a largely free-admission park, and to raise awareness about the need for special needs inclusion.

“When thousands of people come to play soccer on these fourteen different fields, it brings awareness,” Hartman says. “When they come here, they learn, and it brings the exposure up of those who have special needs, and of inclusion.”

Gordon Hartman says that one of the most heartwarming things he sees is children without a diagnosis playing sideby-side with those who have one.

“Morgan’s Wonderland is not just about the sticks and bricks,” he says. “To me, it’s about a movement. It’s about an approach of being able to do something different. It’s about saying, ‘the time is now to get outside the box.’”

A couple centuries ago, while facing wars, famines, plagues, epidemics and wild animals, humans looked around and decided they needed additional ways to risk their lives. And thus, roller coasters were invented. Even more surprising, the idea has stuck around. The feeling of hurtling down a steep incline and feeling your stomach drop and your breath get snatched away is truly like no other. Creative engineers and thrill seekers have pushed the limits of what we can do with roller coasters, and there are many absolutely terrifying ones around the world. I’ve collected the most interesting ones here so you can experience them from the safety of your home. You’re very welcome.

IDY PERL

PROMENADESAÉRIENNES AKA A FUN WAY TO PLAY WITH MORTALITY

The precursor to the roller coaster was first historically recorded in 17th century Russia. There, folks built hills of ice up to 70 or 80 feet high and used sleds to go down 50-degree drops. When summer came around, they didn’t want to give up their sledding activities, so they built a cart on wheels that went down a track on a hill. In the 1800s, a French builder saw the “ice mountains” in Russia and brought the idea over to Paris. Since the French winters aren’t as cold and icy as Russia’s, they designed benches on wheels that were locked onto a 600-foot long wooden track. It was built in a heart shape with stairs going up the center and two tracks going down on either side. The benches would get towed to the top, and gravity did the rest. This was called the “Promenades-Aériennes,” which means “the aerial walk.” The Parisians loved it, and several more of these early roller coasters were built around Paris.

PLAYING WITH PHYSICS

Paris continued to test the limits of physics and gravity. They were the first to have a roller coaster with a loop. In 1846, they built a roller coaster with a 13-foot-high loop, but it was not intended for the public. Instead, one performer would ride it in a wicker basket.

In 1901, one of the first looped roller coasters in North America was built on Coney Island, the famous Loop the Loop. It was the first roller coaster to have an elliptical loop rather than a perfect circle — just as roller coasters are built today. It also relied on the laws of physics rather than harnesses to keep riders in the cart (yes, you read that right: no seatbelts). They actually sold tickets for people to stand on the side and watch passengers ride the roller coaster, and made more money from the spectators than actual riders. The Loop the Loop shut down in 1910 because it wasn’t a very comfortable ride and didn’t get many customers.

STILL RIDIN’

The oldest roller coaster in the world that is still operating today is located in Pennsylvania and was built in 1902. Called Leap the Dips, this wooden roller coaster is in the shape of a figure eight, has a nine-foot drop, and travels at about ten miles an hour. Considering that it’s over 100 years old, those stats are pretty impressive! The roller coaster was in use until 1985, when it was shut down due to disrepair — but it was refurbished from 1997 to 1999 after campaigns to get it working again. It has been proudly carrying riders since then, and has been designated a National Historic Landmark.

IN THE CLOUDS

The Kingda Ka, located in Six Flags in New Jersey, is the tallest roller coaster in the world and the fastest in North America. Its highest peak is a whopping 456-feet tall and is reached by a perfectly straight, 90-degree ascent of 418 feet, and has an equally vertical fall on the other side. It has a hydraulic launch and accelerates from 0 to 128 miles per hour in 3.5 seconds.

SPINS AND SMILES

For those of us who love getting flipped in the air many times consecutively, The Smiler in England is just for you. This roller coaster opened in 2013 and holds the world record for the most loops, with fourteen inversions throughout the three-minute ride. The center of the roller coaster has a spider-like structure that adds some slightly creepy elements to the ride (meant to manipulate the riders into smiling, hence the name). At different points of the ride, passengers get tickled, sprayed with water and mist, see bright flashing lights and hear laughter soundtracks, all while getting dropped and twisted and flipped along the tracks.

INSANE

I’m not just being dramatic, Insane is the actual name of this wild roller coaster in Sweden. The seats aren’t on the tracks; they swing freely off the sides. Throughout the ride, the seats spin and flip completely upside down while climbing up and dropping down the tracks at 37 miles an hour. Not for the faint of heart!

NOW YOU SEE ME, NOW YOU DON’T

Want some water action with your roller coaster ride? Head to Japan for a rather dainty ride on the Vanish roller coaster. It sports light pink tracks and a relatively slow and not very crazy ride, but has a surprising twist when it suddenly descends into an underwater tunnel in the middle of a pool. A sprinkler surrounding the tunnel opening sprays water to create a diving illusion, and the riders are treated to a light show for the few seconds that they’re underwater. Although it looks very cool in pictures, riders have said that the experience is pretty underwhelming. (Cancel your flight tickets to Japan?)

The Gravity Max, located in Taiwan, is a unique roller coaster experience. After going up a hill to a horizontal platform that sticks out midair, the platform sloooowly tilts to a complete 90-degree angle and noisily connects to the remainder of the tracks. After a few seconds of being completely vertical while waiting for the tracks to lock into place, the coaster drops down into a dark tunnel before coming out and going right into a loop.

TWISTS AND TILTS?

There are reports that the second tilting roller coaster in the world is set to debut here in the U.S.A. sometime in 2023. You can be sure that you will not find me there.

ALARMING ANGLES

Going down a steep roller coaster drop can be exhilarating and scary, but going straight down isn’t even the worst kind of drop there is. At the Nickelodeon Universe in the American Dream Mall, there’s a roller coaster that takes drops to a new level. The Shellraiser roller coaster has a drop with a 121.5-degree angle, which means that it goes down vertically and then bends back, beyond vertical. The car pauses at the top in a vertical position right before dropping so that for a few seconds the track disappears from sight and the riders see straight down to the ground. It’s the steepest drop in the world, overtaking the previous record holder, the Takabisha roller coaster in Japan, which has a drop angle of 121-degrees.

ETYMOLOGY

Ironically, the Russian term for roller coasters is “американские горки,” which translates as “American Mountain,” while in many other countries — Spain for example — the name for roller coaster is “la montaña rusa” which translates as “Russian Mountain.”

Russia calls it American Mountain since America was the first to have a modern roller coaster, while places like Spain named it after Russia since they were the first ones to have high sledding mountains. It all goes round and round. Kinda like a Loop the Loop.

LOOPS AND LAWS (OF PHYSICS)

If you look at the shape of roller coaster loops, you’ll notice that they’re never a perfect circle. This isn’t by chance, but rather because of physics. Before the Loop the Loop on Coney Island, a different roller coaster was built there in 1895, called the Flip Flap Railway. This was the first looped roller coaster in the world, and it had a loop that was perfectly circular. Though it seemed like the logical choice for a loop, engineers and scientists quickly realized that they were wrong.

There are lots of forces at play when going around a loop. In order to complete a loop, a very high acceleration is needed, since there are strong gravitational forces trying to bring the cart, and its riders, back down to earth. These forces can slow down the cart. Therefore, in order for the roller coaster to go all around the loop, the acceleration forces need to be stronger than the gravitational forces. In a loop, the intensity of the acceleration depends on two things: the speed, and the angles of the turn. A circle’s angles, which are the same all around, slows down acceleration.

On the circular loop of the Flip Flap Railway, they used high speeds when sending the cart into the loop, which was uncomfortable for riders. But it got even worse, since as it completed the loop the acceleration forces dropped, and gravity became stronger. The human body isn’t able to handle such strong gravitational forces, and the riders experienced whiplash and neck injuries. Worse, some even fell out of the cart. Not a very fun roller coaster experience, to say the least.

Scientists and engineers then realized that using an oval or upsidedown teardrop shape for the loop, which debuted on the Loop the Loop and is used today, resolves this issue, since the curvature changes along the loop and doesn’t interfere with the acceleration.

Embrace, Express, Evolve

Embrace your emotions, rewrite your story, change your presence, and cultivate true resilience.

One day at an informal gathering of colleagues, a friend explained what it means to be mentally healthy: “Mental well-being is about feeling our feelings when we feel them, and then talking about them honestly.”

This notion sounds deceptively simple, but its actual implementation is remarkably intricate. The ability to feel and understand the full range of emotions, which is a big part of a ‘healthy mind’, is easier said than done. For most of us, it becomes a lifelong journey of gradual selfdiscovery.

Our minds, often seeking to shield us from discomfort, have a tendency to avoid confronting our emotions, particularly when they are intense or negative. We may suppress our emotions or pretend that we don’t feel them in order to shield ourselves from harsh truths. However, this can only make things worse in the long run. Acknowledging our emotions and allowing ourselves to fully embrace them is crucial.

It starts when we’re young. Imagine being a young child brimming with affection for your parents, only to realize that your love isn’t reciprocated. It may seem simpler to internalize this as a personal flaw rather than accept that our parents may have faltered. Similarly, our

spouses’ neglectful actions might trigger emotions like anger. Yet, instead of allowing ourselves to experience this anger, we suppress it because we believe ‘it’s wrong to get angry’.

Occasionally, we encounter heart-wrenching conclusions about our relationships, yet we remain oblivious to these emotional wounds due to a self-imposed commitment to avoid feeling bad. All these encounters gradually nudge us further away from our genuine emotions.

Societal norms and perceptions about emotions further shape our responses, often from a young age. A stern admonishment of “don’t act like a baby” or a dismissive “a good child shouldn’t complain” can inhibit the authentic

Our minds, often seeking to shield us from discomfort, have a tendency to avoid confronting our emotions, particularly when they are intense or negative.

THE NEW SEMINARY PROGRAMS

WHAT SETS THEM APART

You do research when you are buying a refrigerator or a car. You do the research when you choose a neighborhood and a home. You do the research when you choose your child’s school. Why do research? Because these are important decisions, some costly and some life impacting.

In other words: You check things thoroughly before making a significant decision. After all it’s your money and your life that’s being impacted. When deciding on an educational program consider the following(carefully):

• Explore the quality of the program, the integrity of the people behind it, the credibility of the credentials you will earn.

• Find out if the degree or certificate will open the doors to future opportunities.

• Will you walk away having acquired both skills and knowledge in your chosen field?

• Will you save money now only to have it cost you down the line in earning power?

• Will you save time and regret it later because the quality wasn’t there?

Some people just want a ‘piece of paper’, thinking that they can always ‘learn on the job’.

Other people want to learn as much as they can in their chosen field so that they can be the best they can be at what they do. They want to be able to do the most good for those they will be servicing. They want ehrlichkeit - integrity. They want to know that they have the tools to make a kiddush Hashem in the workplace and wherever they go. And that’s what we mean when we say ‘Do it quick! Do it right!’

It’s an important decision. Do your research and choose carefully. You owe it to yourself and your future.

expression of our feelings.

People consider it ‘normal’ not to grieve past events, feel strong emotions, or have mixed feelings about our loved ones. Keeping up with this idea of normal can lead to problems. We might end up feeling less creative or enthusiastic, or even fall into paranoia, despair, chronic anxiety, or physical illness.

True mental well-being necessitates a commitment to embracing and articulating our authentic emotions. It also requires us to revisit the past and acknowledge emotions that might have been suppressed or overlooked. While this process may be challenging, it is crucial for both personal healing and growth. Suppressed emotions do not fade away; instead, they linger and intensify over time.

Emotional well-being thrives in authenticity. That means being honest with ourselves about our thoughts and feelings. It also means being true to our values and beliefs. While being authentic can be challenging, it is essential for our mental and emotional health. When we are authentic, we are less likely to feel stressed or anxious. We are also more likely to feel connected to others and to have a sense of purpose in life. Authenticity is a journey, not a destination. It is something that we work on throughout our lives. However, the rewards of being authentic are worth the effort. When we are authentic, we are more likely to be happy, healthy, and fulfilled.

A stern admonishment of “don’t act like a baby” or a dismissive “good children shouldn’t complain” can inhibit the authentic expression of our feelings.

REFUAH Campaign

Ribbono Shel Olam הארו םימשמ טבה. Watch and see what an electrifying effect this Refuah Campaign has generated. Women worldwide, from all walks of life, want to take part in this campaign for the sake of Cholei Yisroel. Nobody wants to be left out! It's incredibly heartwarming to hear how courages, how brave our dear sisters are, stepping out of their comfort zone to awaken Rachamei Shomayim and bring an end to this frightening Machala.

קזח ל-ארשי ישנ

It was inspiring beyond to hear from you all, our sisters from Montreal, Boro Park, Williamsburg, and many others who shared how totally unaccepted it is in their community to present themselves without a sheitel. But you just did it! You are the Nachshon in our Dor! You even went to work without your sheitel. Can you fathom how far your actions went? Like Mindy said, "your literally giving life to Cholei Yisroel".

To the special women from Lakewood we gained insurmountable chizuk, when you shared that you went with your children to the park on shabbos morning in your snood, though it's typically not the norm. Wow!

Our sisters up in the country attending a Shabbos Nachamu Kiddush. The woman that gave her Shabbos shiur, or the ladies shopping in the local malls, you were all battling with your Yetzer Horah, yet nevertheless you chose to stay strong, so that you can alleviate the bitter pain for cholei Yisroel.

Yes! By you winning the battle with your yetzer horah, you gave koach to Cholei Yisroel to win the battle of their machala. How beautiful it was to hear from a few listeners that they went to a simcha with their bandanas and changed to their sheitel only in the hall. By doing so, they expressed their great sensitivity to men, helping them with their Shmiras Eineim, and thereby spreading kedusha in this world. Kedusha brings Shechinah, and Shechinah brings about shemirah, brachos, and refuohs.

Dear sisters, let's continue to minimize our sheitel wear whenever we possibly can. Especially, when in the presence of men.

Let's strengthen each other by influencing as many women as we can to join this campaign.

True, its not easy, however, let Mindy's heartbreaking words reiterate "I know it's hard but the Machala is harder". Just like many women were saying "it really did not seem realistic at all, but I did not think. I jump into this campaign for the sake of helping another Yid".

In this Zechus of going above and beyond with true Mesirah Nefesh may Hashem sent an abundance of תואופר and שממ בורקב עבטה ךרדמ הלעמל תועושי.

KEEP CALM AND DRIVE ON

There are a handful of staples at every carnival and fair, like the Ferris wheel and merry-go-round. But perhaps none holds the interest of the crowd as much as the iconic bumper cars. The reason is simple: You get to drive! Even if you’re just ten years old!

Interestingly, the initial bumper cars were not actually supposed to collide with each other. The whole point of bumper cars, invented in the early 1920s, was to avoid impact (the original name was “Dodgem”). In fact, in one Russian version of bumper cars for adults, collisions were penalized by an immediate cessation of the ride. Instead, the thrill came from trying one’s hardest to avoid bashing into other bumper cars, even as your car careened around in crazy and unpredictable patterns thanks to intentionally unreliable steering.

ACTUALLY, THE CARS WERE NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO SURVIVE IMPACT.

Often, the cars needed to be nailed back together at the end of every day after the ride had closed.

At other times, pieces (and sometimes occupants) would go flying after a collision. And, after the very first season, all of the Dodgem cars were so far beyond repair that they were summarily burned. The cars’ flimsiness was due primarily to the fact that they were constructed out of tin, which is not a strong or durable metal.

THE FIRST BUMPER CARS WERE NOT ACTUALLY DRIVABLE.

While they came with steering wheels, one review of the cars described the steering as “relative,” meaning that the car only went vaguely in the direction it was guided. Sounds like fun!

As the creators of the ride anticipated, people loved the wild rides and did not mind being thrown about the arena with little sense of where they would end up. It was all part of the fun.

THE POPULARITY OF BUMPER CARS FOR ADULTS AND KIDS EXCEEDED THEIR INITIAL REVIEWS.

Initial reviews of the Dodgem bumper cars were less than stellar. The magazine Scientific American even described the cars as generally “unmanageable.” Despite these sour notes, the crowds lining up to use the new bumper cars for adults and kids showed users’ true feelings about the innovation.

For example, despite doubling the price of each ride (from 15 to 30 cents) during the ride’s debut summer at Salisbury Beach, MA, in 1920, the ride operators reported crowds of 40 or 50 people waiting to take their turn. Follow the crowd!

CATCH ME IF YOU CAN!

FUN FACTS:

BUMPER CARS WERE INSPIRED BY A TRAFFIC JAM

The Stoehrer brothers (first patent filed in 1920) were inspired to create bumper cars after they observed a traffic jam in their hometown. They thought it would be fun to create a car that could “bump” into others without causing any damage. So something good can come out of traffic, then!

BUMPER CARS CAN REACH SPEEDS OF UP TO 10 MILES PER HOUR

While it may not sound fast, bumper cars can reach speeds of up to 10 miles per hour. That’s enough to provide a thrilling ride while still being safe for riders of all ages.

BUMPER CARS HAVE BEEN USED FOR SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH

Bumper cars have been used by scientists to study collisions and the effects of impact on the human body. Not what I would have expected at an amusement park!

BUMPER CAR COMPETITIONS ARE A THING

Believe it or not, there are bumper car competitions held around the world. These competitions feature skilled drivers who perform tricks and stunts in their bumper cars, showcasing their agility and control.

FASTEST CAR

The fastest bumper car achieved a top speed of 161.476 km/h (100.336 mph) and was built by Colin Furze of the United Kingdom.

THE LONGEST BUMPER CAR MARATHON

was achieved by Manuela Benus and Jan Spekker of Germany, who drove for 28 hours.
