    Mod-42, if it took your candles 11 hours to go out (presuming you lit them at the required time), you must have used a few gallons of oil over Chanuka, what a waste…

    Jothar, you say you have no idea who it is, but yet you’re calculating when it’s Shabbes in Australia, whilst someone has been given the subtitle Aussie. You’re convinced that you’re doing something Leshem Shamayim, but most of us think differently. You’re not endearing yourself, neither to us, nor to the Ribono Shel Olam. Your motives are not genuine, so stop twisting and turning, nobody is impressed.

    Mod-42 it’s 4.45am in NY, I guess you got up early to daven Vassikin.

    Either I was up all night watching my miraculous candles until they went out or I’m in Belgium.

    At 16 you can still go to Yeshiva Tichonit and get your Bagrut (European high school diploma), but you have to know Ivrit.

    flowers,

    In this week’s Parshas Vayeshev Rashi says:

    Noach lo le’adam sheyapiluhu lekivshan ha’esh ve’al yalbin pnei chaveiro berabim (perek 38 pasuk 25)

    Better for man to be thrown into a fiery furnace than to shame his fellow in public.

    What a smart way to be Mekarev a lost Jewish soul who’s posting on Shabbos….

    I agree with you. People (Jothar & co) complain of chilul Shabbes, but they don’t know that shaming someone in public is worse than chilul Shabbes. Will they ever learn how to handle things privately?

    I suppose the mods won’t print this post, because it doesn’t reflect well on them. I doesn’t change the fact that their ways are halachically incorrect.

    Rhinoplasty is usually performed either with local anesthesia plus some sedation, or general anesthesia. Your surgeon may give you a choice here, but circumstance may preclude your choosing, or your surgeon may have a clear preference. As a rule of thumb, if your nose only needs a little reshaping, you can probably have local anesthesia. If you need more extensive work, you will probably need general anesthesia.

    If you are having local anesthesia for your rhinoplasty surgery, you will receive sedative medications that will relax you and keep you calm. You quite possibly will fall asleep. The sedatives may be administered through an intravenous (IV) line into a vein in your arm or you may be given pills to take. Even if you stay awake or wake up a bit during the procedure, you will be so relaxed you will not care. When you are relaxed and sedated, your surgeon will inject local anesthetics, such as lidocaine. He or she may also inject a drug called epinephrine, which will constrict the blood vessels and help reduce bleeding. The injections feel pretty much like getting any injections; you will feel a sting for a few seconds and then the area will start to go numb. Usually, you will get several injections over the area of your mid-face.

    The mods get attention because they’re in power, they can delete your posts, block you, and write whatever they want (nobody deletes their posts).

    However, there are people here in the cr, who deserve much more attention. People who work for the klal (like aries), educated people, talmidei chachamim, kind and sensitive people (like ayc), I am in awe of such people.

    Even the sharp and witty ones (yes you Popa) are more impressive.

    Wolf, this thread is about teenage girls sitting at a Shabbes table with bochurim (unmarried boys).

    If you’re a bochur, then discussing your teenage nieces, is relevant. (You could marry your niece). However if you’re a married man, then this discussion is not about YOU.

    A prominent Orthodox rabbi and psychologist has been intimidated into quitting as head of a just-formed task force dealing with rabbinic sex abuse of minors, organized by Assemblyman Dov Hikind this week.

    The aveira of the homosexual act is not at all relevant in this discussion. It would imply that molesting or raping girls is less severe.

    Child abuse is not a religious transgression, like eating pork, or being mechalel Shabbes. Child abuse is a moral sin of the worst kind. Atheists and believers condemn it equally.

    Wolf, why do you feel the need to be mezalzel (mock) a topic which deserves a serious response.

    You’re also making fun of the world to come, by associating Gehinom with hell.

    Your disrespect for Jewish values, reflects a lack of self-respect.

    brightcolouredkettles,

    Did you pick your name from the song “My Favourite Things” in The Sound of Music?

    Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens

    Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens

    Brown paper packages tied up with strings

    These are a few of my favourite things

    Cream coloured ponies and crisp apple streudels

    Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles

    Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings

    These are a few of my favourite things

    Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes

    Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes

    Silver white winters that melt into springs

    These are a few of my favourite things

    When the dog bites

    When the bee stings

    When I’m feeling sad

    I simply remember my favourite things

    And then I don’t feel so bad

    Physical abuse is a red line, you walk away after the FIRST incident. If you have a support system (family, friends) you ask them to help you remove the abuser from the home, or to help you move out (with the kids). If you don’t have a support system, or if they’re not successfull, you call Task Force.

    Read Twerski’s book: “The Shame Borne in Silence”.

    Sam2, yes in most Chassidic circles there’s no socializing between the genders. They don’t need Takanos, it’s their way of life.

    However, in the Litvish/Yeshivish crowds, some Rabanim feel that Takanos are in place, due to the times in which we’re living. Divorce is rampant in the chareidi society, there are too many temptations out there.

    If you make it whole grain, make it whole spelt. Wheat has become a problem product over the years. Many people have developed allergies to wheat, and it also causes bloating/constipation. Spelt has become the popular wheat replacement.

    Your letter which you intended to write but didn’t, (see apology thread) is phenomenal/genius. It takes guts to stand up for justice like you did, but whatever is done Leshem Shamayim bears fruits. Keep up the good work!

    Sam2, in the Chassidishe velt, men and women don’t interact socially EVER. Are they all ridiculous? Interaction includes respecting other people’s minhagim/hashkafot.

    You’re right that isolation from society is not required, but doing things lifnim meshuras hadin deserves recognition.

    This thread is fascinating.

    ZeesKite and aries, you are both writers par excellence, why are you wasting your talents in the coffee room? You should be out there writing books.

    As for the topic at hand, I agree that the problem of tight-fitting clothes doesn’t start with maternity clothing. It’s a general tsnius problem of young girls/women who feel the need to emphasize their curves – pregnant or not.

    Is it the guy who insists on marrying a size 2 or is it the MOTHER IN LAW who wants it??

    Aries, your post about Hakol B’seder is hilarious.

    Boys and girls at the same Shabbes table, Lo B’seder!

    Moreover, I’ve heard of takanos from Rabbi Moskovits from Midrash Shmuel that (young) couples should not invite each other for Shabbes meals. It causes shalom bayis problems. Some women cook gourmet food, whilst others make simple food, some men give profound divrei Torah, whilst others are not so gifted, some men sing beautiful zmiros, whilst others sing boring tunes. These eye-openers are no good.
