Reporter Follows Koshering of White House Kitchen For Hanukkah Reception

The Dining section of today's New York Times features an article titled Overnight Makeover for a Kosher First Kitchen. It reports on the several-hour frenzy of making the White House kitchen kosher so that food for the President's annual Hanukkah reception could be prepared there last week. (See prior related posting.) The article describes a "Lubavitch SWAT team of three rabbis and an intern."  At one point during the process, one of the rabbis "reviews a Hebrew passage from Shulchan Aruch, the venerable code of Jewish law. He finds it on his iPad."
