There
their
they’re
all different words
to poppa
why would you think not?
( if you change the kli so that is now a remanufactured item, perhaps not. but libun doesnt do this. )
if you tovel a used kli
that needs kashering before you kasher, the tvila is invalid.
Shmuely Boteach crossed the line?
so what else is new?
to OP.
was there a pun intended by title of thread?
re: eating only almonds.
wow, this story seems to have taken a beating.
earlier version of story is someone who was afraid to eat matzoh for fear it had become chometz. he only ate walnuts on pesach.
eventualy it was dicovered that the walnuts he ate had been
cooked in lard.
I believe the story appears in some musar seforim, but I can’t cite a source.
Interesting idea but isnt it more likely just confusion with the word torah?
this is similar to why people think the letter tsadi is tsadik.
simply because the next letter is kuf. and when reciting the aleph bais one says …tsadi kuf … and tsadik is a familiar word. tsadi isnt.

“am not going to debate this with you, because I am afraid I won’t do a good enough job, and I would not want to chas veshalom disgrace my rav due to my own shortcomings. I am confident that he can stand his ground in any area of halacha. That’s all.”
Many of us are not so confident of that. that’s all.
Years ago I was told by someone in kashrus that chocolate made in usa may not contain animal fat. (doesnt mean it is kosher).
but chocolate made in europe may indeed contain animal fat which may not be listed on label. dont know if this is still true but
at that time most european chocolate bars were real treif!
don’t know what that woman was buying, but she implied that as long as the ingredients are good the product is good.
this theory (despite rav ahem’s opinion) was never that dependable
and is certainly not today.
argghhh!!!!
(I allowed myself that since it just expresses my frustation,
and isnt really a specific comment.)
to yungerman1.
you arent paying attention.
a get is usually given then and there where and when it is to be given. when that is not the case there are many considerations as to exactly what to write.
without the consent of both parties
no one reputable will write or take part in the get.
my last comment in thread
as to my login in name, I regret having chosen it, but cant change it.
TO yungerman:
where does he acquire this GET? how does he evidence it has been duly served? how does he avoid problems of dates and places as written in the get?
In practice almost impossible.
to oomis…
sam2 is trying to distinguish between may not and can not.
he believes that it is only may not.
practically though it really is cannot.
To sam2,
on your second point, you seem to be saying that if a man wishes to violate the cherem by giving an unwanted get, it is possible for him to do so.
might be theoretically possible, but how?
he would need to find someone to be m’sader the get (probably can’t do it himself) and eidim and a sofer all willing to violate the cherem. Might also need shluchim, one or two shtarei harshaah.
and the delivery will not be as simple either, halachically, as you make it sound.
thank you troll I, remember now that that is exactly what I was told.
I want to know if the pancreatic and bile ducts are connected to each other or do they enter the duodenum separately.
( I have gotten different answers to this)
miketz is not always chanuka. in a zayin chaser year,
chanuka will be friday, shabbos chanuka will be vayeshev
and miketz will be the day after chanuka.
OK.
sorry if i wasnt clear.
again, I have seen the oleh correct the baal koreh many times.
I myself have been in both position. (served as corrector or correctee).
I haven’t seen any hate caused by this event. I am shocked that you have and think it normal. I have seen annoyance, especially if the corrector is wrong (or the baal koreh thinks he is wrong).
but hate?!
TO poppa
I have seen this many times and have been on both sides of it myself at times. I don’t know where the hate comes in.
Haven’t seen that and I am shocked.
I don’t even know what it means “if one himself is not …”
you heard from some rov or you heard from a rov you generally depend on?
what do I think? NONESENSE is what I think.
nuff said.
a sefer from the Skulener rebbe (the previous rebbe) about chanuka
includes a long discussion and perhaps a perush on maoz tsur.
I am horrified to hear what ZAHAVASDAD says about the melody but by now maybe it no longer matters.
besides can it be proven?
I also was surprised and disturbed.
when I speak to someone or write something, I naturally take into account the person or audience I am addressing. While it true that these posts are open to the public, I am sure that a feel for the particular venue affected my choices of what to discuss, as well as the tone of voice and wording. I am not from the most frequent posters and I will be posting even less often now.
not all situations are the same.
because of the current climate they had no choice but to call police but it’s not always the right thing to do when you do have a choice. I agree that often the police were not called when they should have been.
To yehudatzvi:
Do you have credible source for this?
I tried google and got thousands of references to you tube videos,
which I hadnt wanted or asked for.
medlineplus dosn’t mention diabetes in the article on lithotripsy.
How do we block the pictures of r’shaim that YWN insists on showing with many stories?
I really dont want these pictures of bernie madoff or osama bin ladin or levi aron
to jothar:
amazing that someone could twist the woman’s words around in this way. and consider doing so being dun lcaf zchus.
I actually heard a radio program (over a year ago at least)
in which a woman from eretz yisroel described a minor life problem she had, and how she stood before the rebbes picture and began,
“Oh rebbe, I ….”.
I am not making this up.
The rebbe answered her prayer and appeared before her school age daughter and gave her a dollar and some advice, after which he disappeared! not avodah zara?!!!!!
of course that doesn’t say anything about the woman in your story,
but her words are bad enough. No practicing Jew would ever use such an expression and mean he should be a melitz yosher.
I have not been following this but now having read a few of the entries I must say some of them are very funny, some not funny to me. Anything at the expense of someone else is not funny.
it also is not funny just that you fooled someone into thinking that something outlandish is so.
I also wonder that OP called this type of behavior childish.
most children do not do this sort of thing or think of doing.
Some do as do some adults.
to aries2756
you miss the point.
with all your self-rightousness which for all i know, is justified,
you still may be doing something very wrong posting this here.
or maybe not.
you are on dangerous ground.
you certainly should not protect a person such as you describe.
you also should not think that anything you wish to do or say in your anger is automatically alright.
The chofetz chaim once said (approximately) perhaps b’dechusa,
that he did the world a great favor by writting his seforim,
without them, you wouldn’t be allowed to open your mouth for fear
that what you were about to say was assur.
in the end though, it is up to the leaders of hatzoloh
(which is after all a private volunteer organization)
and their advisors (read: poskim).
You guys ever hear of DATA MINING?
data mining and other techniques are used to piece together
data from different sources in surprising ways.
asking questions like,” how can they do that?” is useless.
they can do it
can I have, “and hairplitter”
(i am permitting myself to post again even though I wrote ‘last’
in previous post, because someone raised a new issue/topic)

Can someone address the difference in the sifrei torah themselves? The word “dakkoh” in Ki Tseitzei is spelled differently in the ST of sephardim and ashkenazim. A misspelled word in a ST is a pessul. Is it apropriate for one to use the ST of the other?
this is very difficult to address since it is simply the best we can do.
and it is even worse. that is not the only word whose spelling is in question. there are a few others.
in one case, the difference in spelling would cause a difference
in saying and a slight difference in meaning!
but: ain zeh makom l’haarich!
End of my comments on this topic.
to old man
a) you missed his point, even though you started a paragraph with,” The point that”.
b) but I guess it doesnt matter, since you yourself are just as capable of ruling on this.
last
You only say this because you don’t understand the basic idea of evolution. all woodpeckers that didn’t have all the details of this design, died out because they simply couldn’t survive.
the only one left was the one that worked.
simple right?
amazing the power of avodah zarah. I will bet that even among the readers here, there are some who think this makes sense.
Just one more comment:
Seeing the post form OLD_MAN and the rebuttle from YUNGERMAN1,
Is this some kind of role reversal?
As and aside, almost all the havaros, sfardic, ashkenazik and whatever have provable or near provable shibushim.
best is undoubtedly tamani, but I don’t know if that is perfect either.
Do they have an equal problem for both sfardim and ashkenazim?
what about an ungarischer listening to a litvak and vise versa?
the psak seems very strange to me, but just the same
I again wonder if this is the place to announce that some psak is wrong or right. Should someone change his practices because an anonymous poster in the coffee room pronounced that his rabbi was wrong?
There are halachos about when to be machzir the baal koreh.
I too am annoyed when people who do not understand the topic
correct for minor inconsequentials.
Just the same, If I myself am reading, i will almost always
say over when corrected in this way. I do not want to discourage
a valid correction.

Can you source this?
just one more sentence or two since I used very harsh language.
Let’s distinguish between the BAD:
Someone who was careless, did not think before he spoke and said something he should not have.
and
the UGLY which is what I thought this thread started out with:
A deliberate use of the sheva brochos as a roast .
I had never heard of this practice and I am shocked at the horrible idea. Does this exist? If it does let’s all do what we can to kill it.
my hashem save my family and all yisroel from such rashoim.
good natured jabs!?
such, if they are ever a good idea, belong only between
close people who know each other well.
Never in company! at a marriage each side is first getting to know the other, as are the choson kallah themselves. To start them off with a negative idea is outrageous.
Disgusting.
anyone who would take part in something like this should
be shunned, or whatever. What absolute …..!
If a man says something in a forest and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?
(not original but a favorite)
no ayc is not exactly correct .
this is the distributive property.
the factoring also depends on distributive property.
distributive is a law not a process so it is not correct to
refer to the reverse.
whether you remove or create the parenthesis,
you are still applying the distributive property.
done for this thread.
The distributive property of multiplication over addition
I think (not sure, breaking my own rule here)
that the terms exothermic and endothermic reactions refer only to chemical changes, not to physical changes such as disolving in water.
but since the system has lost heat, which must have been converted to some sort of potential, this is an endothermic change, if this is an appropriate term.
It depends who you are. if you are asking this questions to the cr
then the answer is definitly NO.
you should let your rav or posek decide for you.
Then you can say, “my rav told me to follow this psak of rav yaakov emden”.
Posed to the cr, this question is rediculous.
my only comment in this thread.
it depends. some topics do not belong here.
only comment in this thread.
as for whether coffee room itself is a michshol, a vote was requested before it was instituted. I voted against.
I beat you all! I flipped this post twice!
about yam suf:
a part b question might be
Why do we then say in slichos Mi she-anah laavosainu al yam suf?
does anyone know an answer to this apparent contradiction?
