    Psychopathy (or sociopathy is defined as either an aspect of personality or as a personality disorder, characterized by enduring dissocial or antisocial behavior, a diminished capacity for empathy or remorse, and poor behavioral controls or fearless dominance. There are various definitions which are only partly overlapping and sometimes appear contradictory.[1]

    The 4th and 5th editions of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) have a diagnosis of Antisocial (Dissocial) Personality Disorder (ASPD), which states: “The essential feature of antisocial personality disorder is a pervasive pattern of disregard for, and violation of, the rights of others that begins in childhood or early adolescence and continues into adulthood. This pattern has also been referred to as psychopathy, sociopathy, or dyssocial personality disorder.” Although no psychiatric or psychological organization has sanctioned a diagnosis titled “psychopathy”, assessments of psychopathy characteristics are widely used in criminal justice settings in some nations, and may have important consequences for individuals.[2] The term is also used by the general public, in popular press, and in fictional portrayals.[3]

    Although American psychiatrist Hervey Cleckley’s work on psychopathy probably influenced the initial diagnostic criteria for antisocial personality reaction/disturbance in the DSM, as did American psychologist George E. Partridge’s work on sociopathy, in 1980 the somewhat different diagnosis of ASPD was introduced. However, Canadian psychologist Robert D. Hare repopularised the construct of psychopathy in criminology with his Psychopathy

    IT’S important to look at the ‘products’ of a seminary as well as the backgrounds of the girls they are taking. based on the background is how the sem gives over their messages….

    they officially take a few telephone #s and answer to just what they have on record.

    do they organize info like tht?

    they should be able to tell you what you need to know if they are telling you that you have to be retested…

    or you can go to a HS and do when they do and maybe youll be able to get that cost price also.

    maybe try the schools in your neighborhood.

    hatzlacha!

    MBD’s Hineini…

    A dark cloud of despair surrounds your heart

    Disillusion with life your face imparts

    You are wandering in a world of confusion

    Reality is hidden behind the web of illusion.

    Chorus

    So my brothers put your faith in the Above

    Say “Hineni,” I am ready to serve you with love.

    The truth lies at the end of a forest dense

    Your heart is your compass your spiritual sense

    Let it lead you along the right road

    And let the words of the Torah be your navigational code.

    Our father Abraham was called by G-D to sacrifice his son

    With the cry of Hineni the deed was done

    Now what will become of our father’s devotion

    Our forefathers smiled as they died in peace

    But the cries they began will never cease

    The words they cried shook the heavens above

    They said Hineni, we are here with love

    beautiful song and when sung by MBD who has that stage personna….

    he deserves the title THE KING!

    according to many it IS a lack of tznius to call people of the opposite gendeer by their first names.

    for women introducing oneself as Miss/Mrs…. automatically puts up a barrier between the coworkers a barrier you want there. If you can’t start asking everyone to address you with a title… address them mr,miss,mrs so you build that barrier…

    bhatzlacha!

    also you may want to ask a sheila.. ASK= Always Seek Kedusha (Rav Yehuda Oelbaums abbreviation)

    there is a problem with robes and many people would say so! Many people allow robes just in the house and then your wife could go with the smaller size because when in the house a woman is supposed to dress for her husband minus her personal chumros.

    at a wedding people get more dressed, if they were walking down the street in what they wore to the wedding it would be immodest.

    the sem uses the pics to give out to staff to know your name before you come. They may use it for seating charts etc, give in a current picture one you want the sem to hve on file. I think!

    I think they need pics the size of passports pics.

    I remember those that were busy going to get the pics done in a place…

    just take your own close up and trim it to the size of a passport photo.

    I feel that if its the law. its the law. you have to think before you add the fourth person it shouldnt be a habit. also sometimes an adult in the middle seat bocks your veiw outside the back window… think safe!
