    Amazon prime is accelerating for anytime, so you are not mechaven for shabbos, and we have amira deamira from erev shabbos. the goy does it for his own benefit payed a fixed amount ahead of time should be mutar.

    Even it is guaranteed, the person who brings the package to you is not the one you talked to, so this is an amira deamira before shabbos and by paying extra reflects a great need which would be mutar as the goy is doing it
    for his own benefit and the payment is agreed on before hand.

    If sent express, there must be a great need, otherwise why pay extra and the Minchas Yitzchok is matir in that case, otherwise it is not guaranteed that it will arrive on shabbos.

    Joseph, I don’t agree with him. Not everybody is suitable for sitting and learning. Learning chemistry we see the greatness of our Creator having a miniature solar system in every atom. String theory shows that Hashem put his energy into everything. Math is required for the the gemora.

    Remeber Rashi משם הפיצם how unity saves one from even ע’ז . At the dor hafloga, to punish them, the unity was first brokeb up. So how great is unity towards the good.

    I found the Tzitz Eliezer (13,67) who allows removing decorations from this sukkah and hanging it into another sukkah, so obviously as mentioned above there is no problem moving it somewhere else in the same sukkah.

    Joseph, איזהו חכם הרואה את הנולד. you praise Trump who does not look ahead at the consequences of his actions by only caring for himself and not taking advice from others. Our allies are disgusted with the US that it cannot be trusted as Rechavom who did not listen to the advice of the elders, so his rule was diminished.

    We also see by shabbos (Nemukai Yosef in Bava Kama) that we go after the start of the work and saying yaleh veyovai so if we start davening before chatzos we can finish after, even according to the RMA.

    The Piskei Teshuvas brings from Rav Akiva Eigar ztz’l to daven two shm’es with a tenai, if the first is shacharis the second is mincha, but if the first is mincha, the second is a hashloma for shacharis.

    The above ruling of the MB causes sometimes not to have a minyan as people either daven beyechidus or rush out before the minyan arrives thus you don’t have six mispallelim.

    MB SA O’CH 233,14 It is better to daven beyechidus before shekiya than with a minyan after.

    Avi, I have seen at Landau’s following the Taz’s view who says halacha lemaaseh that they davened Shacharis in the half hour after chatzos. Logically it makes sense that all the time of the day some tefila is available.

    In SA O’CH 89,1 there is an argument if in the half hour after chatzos until mincha one can still daven shacharis badeoved.

    Not to misunderstand the above Radbaz, I will quote the Sharei Teshuva: (The place is misquoted)

    וכ”כ ג”כ הרדב”ז ח”ב סי’ שמ”ב אותן שאין מכסין הראש עושין שלא כדין וכן נהגו ומנהג אבותינו תורה היא ע”ש,

    If you think that this applies only to the brocho look at the Piskei Teshuva:

    פסקי תשובות אורח חיים סימן ח אות ח
    ח. להקפיד על כיסוי הראש בטלית כל עת התפילה וקריה”ת
    מ”ב סק”ד: וכתב הב”ח דצריך שיהא הטלית על ראשו מתחילת התפילה ועד סופה. שכיסוי זה מכניע לב האדם ומביאו לידי יראת שמים (- מ”ב בתחילת דבריו). מתחילת התפילה ועד סופה אין78 הכוונה רק על שמונה עשרה אלא מאדון עולם79 עד סוף התפילה, ומאד צריך להקפיד על כך כי עיטוף הראש בטלית בעת התפילה הגדירו הרדב”ז80 בכלל “מנהג אבותינו תורה”, והפוסקים התבטאו בלשונות חריפים על אלו שאין מקפידים על כיסוי ראשם בטלית, ואף עקב81 שהחום מעיק, שהם בגדר82 חצופים ומשחיתים ואין הם אלא קלי ראש, ועליהם83 הכתוב אומר (מלכים א’ י”ד ט’) ואותי השלכת אחר גוויך,
    וביותר צריך הש”ץ84 להקפיד על כך.
    ונכון להקפיד על כיסוי הראש בטלית גם בשעת85 קריאת התורה, וכלשון הב”ח “שראשו יהא מכוסה בטלית של מצוה כל שעה, שלא יהא רגע בגילוי
    הראש כל זמן שהטלית עליו, וכן הוא מנהג הצנועים”.

    These are the words of Radbaz about covering the head during tefiila as mentioned by the Sharei Teshuva SA O’CH 8:

    שו”ת רדב”ז חלק א סימן שמג
    ותו דקי”ל דאע”ג דיש לו ציצית בבגדו צריך שיעשה לו טלית להתעטף בו בשעת התפלה וכן נהגו כל ישראל

    Shockling is based on the pasuk כל עצמותי תאמרנה ה’ מי כמוך. There is a story when a rebbe said that you should shockle forwards and backwards indicating ‘yes’ and not sideways indicating ‘no’. Reb Moshe Feinstein ztz’l stopped shockling based on an incident where a Russian soldier pointed a rifle at him. He was so shocked that he could not move, so he decided to use this for davening in front of Hashem.

    Tosfas at the end of the first perek in Kidushin on the bottom of amud beis says that by the jews good machshovos are taken as actions but not bad which is the reverse by goyim. Explains the Maharsha that the Jews are basicly good, so if they think good, they will do it, but not bad. The opposite is true by the goyim. The Jews have 613 mitzvos because they are able to do it. They have a higher level of nashomo.
