    I believe that this country has a lot to gain from any of the democratic candidates. True they will wreck the economy and will probably not get elected for a second term, but the healthcare reform they implement will stay as it’ll be so much better than what we have now.

    what a typicaly American response.

    Halachically there’s nothing wrong with wearing a cap instead of a Yamulka.

    When i’m in France, depending on where I am, I alternate between the two. For example, in Paris I feel fine wearing my yamulka (in all the places I usually go to in Paris).

    MsPrincess,

    Many of your posts sound anything but intelligent.

    You should ask a 3rd party who is completely uninvolved.

    Please remember: wiser is not smarter.

    To the best of my knowledge the Chasam Sofer was very mapkid not to change the original minhogim of oberland. Ehrlau follow his minhogim and those are originally from Frankfurt, not the minhogei oberland.

    Maybe you could stop listening to non jewish music, or at least inappropriate songs, so you wouldn’t think about them when a jewish singer decides to cover them.

    I meant a gartel around the sefer torah, not around a person. The kind that can be found around most sifrei torah today.

    Hakohen53: Do you have any more information as to where this shul is which your nephew found?

    I believe minhag oberland is to make a bracha on teffillin. Also, we dip our finger in the wine at the seder by bdomai’e chayee and of course wear a hoibel when wearing a kittel.

    Does anyone know if using a vimpel instead of a gartel is minhag oberland or only a yekkishe minhag?

    All chasam soferniks are oberlanders but not all oberlanders are chasam soferniks.

    Although he had a tremendous influence on hungarian jews he did not encourage them to change their minhogim or keep new minhogim.

    Therefore, I think the statement that all ehrliche women in hungary shaved their hair is inaccurate.

    Apparently minhag chasam sofer and pressburg, such as women shaving hair, where different to the minhogim in the rest of oberland.

    Joseph, I am talking about real oberland, not the state of most formely oberland communities today.

    Correct Nachumberg.

    Minhag chasam sofer (ehrleu) is different than minhag oberland. An example of this is the shape of the knot on the teffilin shel rosh.

    Nachumberg do you know of any other differences and where do you daven?

    Minhag oberland means the minhagim that people living in the oberland region of hungary kept in the period right before the war.

    Their havara was very unsimilar to the chassidish one.

    The reason why almost all oberlanders became chassidish is because of the chassidish mentality of varmkeit (singing etc.), something which did not exist in the litvishe way of life but did in oberland.

    It had nothing to do with minhogim.

    Your knowledge is mistaken.

    The Chasam Sofer was an oberlander however minhag chasam sofer is not the same as minhag Oberland. Additionally the Ehrlau chassidus which follow the Chasasam Sofer is a relatively new chassidus. Before the Ehrlau rebbe (who is a Sofer) founded it they were not chassidish.

    Many Oberlanders wear streimels because they became chassidish. This is because the oberlander outlook on life (but not their minhogim) was very similar to chassidus’.

    Vein used to be Oberland but became more and more chassidish until they reached the point they are at today.

    The real oberland havara is nothing like chasidim. This is also something which many oberlanders picked up as they became more and more chassidish.

    I am asking regarding the real original oberland minhogim and not what you see in vien and nitra today.

    Well said zahavasdad.

    I just got back from Austria and when I was there I tooka taxi from the train station to my hotel.

    The driver heard me speaking in English and asked me where I was from, I replied London. He then asked me Sie sind ein Yude (are you jewish in german), I replied yes. He then reached into his glove compartment and pulled out a siddur. He explained to me that two days ago he had another jewish passanger who lives in London who had left it in his car. I looked inside the siddur and there was a name, address and telephone number of a man in London. I just got back and will try to return the siddur to him tomorrow.

    Zurich is a great place with quite a large Jewish community.

    I find that most American’s perceive Europe as a place where everyone is anti-Semitic, and that if you walk on the street with a yarmulke you will be pelted with stones. This is defiantly not the case. I go to Europe every year on vacation and have never experienced any ant-Semitism there.

    Hero.

    What the government are doing is totally illegal and unconstitutional. A few years ago we were fight against the communists to give Russian people freedom of speech. In Russia the government listened in on telephone calls. In our fight to stop them we have become like them. I would be extremely surprised if any terrorist has been stopped through PRISM. This is going completely against the fourth amendment which was put in place to stop exactly this – the government becoming too powerful.

    I can understand if they were only listening in on terrorists and had to receive a court order for each person they spy on. But spying on everyone is just an outrageous breach of our privacy.

    HaLeiVi, you are probably right, his system also starts with A, but since he only learnt the treble clef, he starts learning the first note as C. I assume people who learn instruments which can only play in the treble clef also start learning in C, when in fact if you look at all three clefs the lowest not is an A.

    HaLeiVi, Ki Hirbeisa could very well have been written in MuseScore as I did not arrange it myself. As for the terminology for the upper staff, I am living in London and since someone referred to the treble clef as the upper register earlier in this post, I assumed that is what you call it in America. Look at Hofachto for Sibelius fonts and layouts.
