It’s purim and popa doesn’t care. If you don’t like it, then go off the derech.
lol at the mod who is reading this.
interjection: If you think it rose to the level of illegal behavior, you should definitely file a report with the state certifying board. So that he won’t do it to other women.
FIA: Your point 2 is a good point.
And you are correct, the only time it will be called is for the free rides to the hospital when in labor, and then–only when it isn’t an emergency.
I dare you to post here on purim after your Mishteh Yayin.
Do you mean like this?

Joseph is a chickapacha!

I dare you to get so drunk on purim that you end up in the hospital with brain damage. I dare you.
I’m glad you got that out of your system. I’m happy to facilitate.
I always try to encourage the chosson to meet the kallah halfway down the aisle,take her hand, and lead her to the chupah. Most chasanim look at me like I am crazy. Of course, this lovely but rarely enacted minhag is an offshoot of the Chupas Main done in Germany.
You always try to encourage chassanim to mix and match minhagim from whatever you like, and they look at you like you are crazy.
I am also looking at your post like you are crazy. What theory of Judaism do you have, that says you should do that with minhagim?
Why would you ever want to eat anything from a dairy kitchen?
You guys are so clueless. Most hospitals send women home if they arrive too early,
You know why they send you home? Because it is safe to. That’s when they send you home. So sometimes you go and get sent home.
some women have impossibly short labors (not the first child) and driving yourself in an emergency can be deadly, or even impossible if there are injuries.
If you’re afraid to drive, have your husband drive you. The way most Americans get to the hospital for a birth is by private car or taxi. You can do that also, instead of shlepping my brother out of seder or away from his family.
And how easy is it to get a cab during a snowstorm?
You’ve proven my point, when you start talking about snowstorms. Sure, in a snowstorm, if you have no other way, then call an ambulance.
Popa’s because of the crust.
Why all the Focus on Purim?
I know! Why only purim! We can drink all the time; not only on purim! Why do people only drink so much on purim? Why the focus on purim?
None of you checked back, but Popa still thinks it is funny.
Facebook is cited in 1 out of every 5 divorces in the United States, according to the Loyola University Health System.
Sure, but that is irrelevant. Facebook is how people communicate, so of course that is how the objectionable communication happened. And most divorces have some sort of objectionable communication with others, once the relationship starts going sour.
I have a better idea. You pathetic New Yorkers should stop giving birth in ambulances. GO TO THE BLAZED HOSPITAL like everyone else in American does.
I seriously think the existence of hatzolo has turned you all into the most complete lunatics about your health. If you are in labor, you get in your car, drive to the supermarket to pick up some donuts for the nurses so they treat you well, and then drive to the hospital and check yourself in. You shouldn’t be waiting until the last moment and then calling an ambulance.
And this goes for most other health issues also. If you cut yourself, you get in your car and drive to the hospital; if you break a limb, you get in your car and drive to the hospital. If you can’t drive, you call a taxi. If you aren’t feeling well, you call your doctor and ask what to do; if he says go to the emergency room, you get in your car and drive to the hospital.
That’s how the rest of the world works, where ambulances aren’t free taxi rides. Calling 911 is for when you have chest pains or stroke symptoms or something else which is a minute to minute emergency. I’ll give you a pro-tip: If the ambulance doesn’t call in to the hospital to get them ready for you, then you didn’t need an ambulance.
Part of what contributes to this is that people think they’ll be cared for earlier if they come in an ambulance. It isn’t true. My brother is hatzolo, and has seen the patients he brought earlier still sitting and waiting on a gurney when he came back with new patients way later. Only, they are also strapped into a ridiculous brace because that’s what the EMT protocol is.
If it is really an emergency, you won’t care if the EMT is male, female, or a klingon. If you care, then it isn’t an emergency, and you should call a taxi.
rd: are you saying they don’t make the donuts in the store?
If she was getting medicare or medicaid reimbursements, and was lying to the govt about her qualifications, then she violated the False Claims Act and you can sue her on behalf of the govt and get like a third of the fines. And the fines are really big.
popa: Give me a break, they are not only tarud in food!
Oh, ok. I really wouldn’t know, I don’t see what anyone else does because I’m tarud in food.
Many if not most litvish shmorgs are not mixed, as zdad points out.
But more importantly, it is ok there because you are tarud in the food.
If they wanted us to work, why did they invent the internet????
Exactly.
(My brother turned off the internet at the office he manages.)
Oh, it is a very legitimate minhag. As you no doubt know, ?? ????? ???? ????
And as I no doubt have said here before, by minhagim, lo rainu is a raiah. See first shach in yoreh deah.
apushatayid,
Also, don’t forget to hand $500 in cash to the stranger standing nearby who will be wearing a yellow polka dot tie.
When and where is the wedding?
Theres no heter for the kallah to come into the mens section period!
That is true. You will not find in even one sefer that it is muttar.
You know why? Because there is no need for a heter, because there is no issur.
Well that’s Not what happenned here! They said they found out about the Metzious in Starbucks and they said the Halacha is in such a case is to be Machmir L’chatchilla.
Health: that is not what they said. You are distorting the record. They did not say the halacha is to be machmir; I quoted the words from both orgs.
Or, as they say, kol haposel, b’mumo posel:
You changed their words -so you can be right.
Or, or, or, they can be someich on the halacha pesuka of thousands of years, and assume that nothing in the halacha has changed until their rav tells them it has.
Essentially, what happened here is that cRc got up and said, “we have a new chumrah, it is against the halacha pesuka, but we think it is appropriate.” Well, that is nice, but I don’t see why anyone in the world should care what they say unless their own rav made the same pronouncement.
The stam is that we follow halacha. I don’t need to ask a rav every time some other rav announces a new chumrah on top of the halacha.
And the star k has never weighed in on it. They say:
“While leniencies exist to allow the coffee in spite of the clean-up issues, Rabbi Moshe Heinemann, shlita, Rabbinic Administrator of the Star-K, has decided against using them.”
That’s about the same as saying, “while tomatoes are muttar, Rabbi Heinemann does not like eating them.” If they wish to impose chumras over what is mandated by halacha, they ought to explicate what the parameters of that chumra is, and why. Then we can all ask our rav.
I don’t see why the kashrus orgs think it is their jurisdiction to be setting chumrah policy for all of us. Let us each ask our own rav. Their jurisdiction is their expertise in food production.
I was in the car with him, and he stopped for a vanilla soy latte. I commented that he must not agree with the cRc, and he concurred, and then we made fun of them for a few minutes.
I don’t think it’s appropriate to post personal conversations like that on the internet. If he wants to make a public statement, he will.
In any event, since this is not a matter which is relevant to the cRc’s or StarK’s expertise, I don’t think I really should care what they think. If my rav wants to overrule the gedolei haposkim and say to be machmir on issur that is battul, b’dieved, then he will say so. Until then, I respectfully will continue to just follow the shulchan aruch, rema, shach, taz.
Oh, I get it. I’m reading the z table wrong. It’s formatted differently than I’m used to–it is showing the percentage between z score and mean instead of percentage left of the z score.
.4992 means there is 49.92% between the z score and the mean, which means that there is only .08 outside, which means a total of .16% on both sides, which is much closer to 1/500 than to 1/100
Torah:
Again, we are discussing that you flipped one quarter 10 times and got 10 heads.
The calculation is this:
p-hat minus p
divided by
square root of (p*1-p) / square root of sample size
Where, p hat is the sample mean and p is the population mean.
So,
p-hat is 1, and p is .5
square root of (.5*.5)=.5
divided by square root of 10 = 0.15811388300841896659994467722164
Now, I subtract p from p-hat and get .5
.5/0.15811388300841896659994467722164 = 3.1622776601683793319988935444326
Then I google a handy dandy z table and find that the value for z score of 3.16 is .4992, which means that half a percent of results on a normal distribution lie to the left of z score 3.16, which means that there is a 1/100 chance of getting a result this far off the mean if you pick results at random from the distribution.
So where do you disagree?
lol
I’ll ask someone who knows stuff.
my rebbe told me, if you marry a girl for her money you may end up wanting the money in the house and the girl in the bank
My rebbi said the same thing, and then said to do it anyway.
Who am I say you shouldn’t be machmir? When a kashrus agency under highly suspicious conditions proclaims you should be machmir on something with absolutely no basis for the chumrah–I can say you don’t have to be.
(The highly suspicious conditions is that they had already announced it was assur previously, and then gotten flack because it wasn’t, so they released a several page memo, and got more flack because it was still not assur, so they released a 20 page memo and buried in a footnote the fact that it is not min hadin. Call that whatever you want, but that’s the new term I’m using for suspicious conditions.)
