Oops!
From the N.Y. Times "Corrections":
An article on Aug. 19 about a peddler at the bungalow colonies in the Catskills where many Orthodox Jews spend summers misstated the length of Tishah b'Ab, the observance of mourning for the destruction of the First and Second Temples of Jerusalem, when the faithful wear plastic sandals to abstain from leather. It is a single day - the ninth of the month of Ab - not nine days. The article also misspelled the term for a head covering sold to some Orthodox women. It is a tichel, not a tickle. (Go to Article)
