Pleased to hear about the popcorn machine at Oh Nuts. One would also assume that the employees don’t use the popcorn machine to warm up their lunches.
I heard that a particular donut chain that has a questionable hashgocha used to serve a parve vegetarian bacon until once the State kashrus inspectors found that the non Jewish workers had erroniously accepted a delivery of real bacon. I understand that they no longer serve that product, but things are warmed up in microwaves and with no Jew present in the establishment. What would keep the workers from warming up their meals in the microwave.
Certainly you don’t think that the d. donuts employees only eat donuts and coffee day in and day out.
Do you need donuts so badly that you’ll compromise on kashrus?
Nothing wrong with s couple of years older, but a 21 year old marrying a 35 year old woman – there’s something wrong there.
Disgusting practice, but certainly better than eyebrow, lip, and tongue piercing. Eliezer and Rivka were in the middle east where nose rings may have been common at the time.
It certainly doesn’t add anything.
I have seen robes that aren’t tznuis.

As a parent of a member, I don’t see a problem with a merchant showing appreciation through a discount. I assure you that my son didn’t join to get a discount or for status, but to help fellow Yiddin.
Can a tiny goldfish take on all the avairos?
Considering the quality of the Republicans seeking the office, he will probably win. You’d think that their leadership would find a candidate that has a chance instead of the current field.
I think PBA was referring to a former congressman from Queens who isn’t halachicly married.
In the begining the Conservative religion was simply an Americanized orthodoxy similiar to the Young Israel movement. Shabbos, kashrus etc were not abandoned till later years. At one time in the 20’s or 30’s there were discussions to merge YU and JTS.
Over the years they have strayed further and further in a failed attempt at self perpetuation of a spiritually bankrupt religion, only to lose their members to orthodoxy and reform. There is no place for a middle ground.
Egalitarian temples do not differentiate between men and women and have women “rabbis” and cantors and of course mixed choirs.
Soloman Shechter would not recognize what he faith has become.
Texting during Mass? Should it be mutter?
Isn’t the problem the aidim?
My understanding that such heterim are not given to divorced women with children, only those without.
Depends on what she looks like. However I can’t understand why any girl would want to do that.
I don’t know where Turner davens, but Weprin davens at the Young Israel of Jamaica Estates. This race has gotten out of hand with the ads, accusations and non stop robo calls. Simplistic ads insulting the voters intell1gence from both sides.
NO NEVER! My wife would be very upset if I did.
At what age should a person be on the internet?
I also don’t like the look, but it certainly kept me dry this Shabbos. A top rated innovation for the community, like the Shabbos lamp.
If a designer logo was on it it would be a hot item for the goysha world too.
I’m an Ebay Power Seller and I sell one item that dozens of other sellers have listed. My price is towards the high end, but I have very high positive feedback and do ok. I advise you to look for what other sellers have, check the completed auctions for percentage sold and price and then find a source that can supply item at a good price. You want something easy to ship or an item you can have drop shipped.
Note: Paypal Has To Report To IRS via 1099K. The new Housing and Economic Recovery Act signed into law requires Paypal and others to report to the IRS. This law will take affect in 2011 and will be reported in 2012 for the 2011 tax year.
You are excluded from having your info reported if:
1. If you receive less than $20,000 a year in payments; and
2. If you have less than 200 payments.
Isn’t this clearly loshon hora during the 9 days?
Kylbdnr: No, it’s not true. Is it true thae Sfardim can have 7 wives?
Several years ago there was a “reform rabbi” who married his gay partner on Tisha B’Av in Massachusetts in a “traditional Jewish ceremony”. Very hard to understand their religion.
I very much doubt that his family or any middle class family could afford the attorny’s fees associated with a case like this. I expect that the cost to run in the hundreds of thousands. Some lawyers thake these cases pro bono just for the publicity.
Based on my knowledge of drug use by a sibling of the accused, I would assume that he too used drugs and that may be the cause of his actions. One never knows what effects these illicit substances will have on one’s brain the the future.
He had to be insane at the time of the murder
Droid: Why? Are you in the military or looking to join?
As soon as she feels she needs it.
The photo caption said “hasid man”. He may daven by a Lubavitcher, but by the usual definition the accused is not a chosid. I consider it an anti semetic act to put such an un newsworthy story on the front page.
Do people really text during davening? I’ve never seen it.
We have a man that comes on Fridays every few weeks. No one on the block knows why he collects of if he’s really in need, but we all give a few dollars. I assume there’s a need.
I you ever met me you’d know
Poppa – Such a marriage would possibly give you a tax break, it would also prevent a real marriage to a maidel since bigamy is illegal.
Imagine after you divorce the guy, how would you explain the divorce to the shadchan?
In BP they have to walk since there’s no place to park at night. Flatbush Midwood homes have driveways and easy stret parking.
Buying quality antique or older furniture is first class. Anything made pre 1960 is real wood, not particle board stapled together. Solid wood furniture should last a lifetime or longer. Stay away from upholstered furniture unless your’re going to reupholster it.
Basket of radishes: All the days you mention with the exception of valentines day are American secular comercialized holidays. Valentines day, although thoroughly commercialized has Xian origins and celebrates a “saint”.
I see nothing wrong with mothers day, fathers day, thanksgiving or even grandparents day, but the saints day is something else.
Haifagirl: Where on the uniform do you suggest that they have the school same? On the back of the shirt or on back of the skirt? If you’re concerned about tznius speak to all those Brooklyn women with the shaitels and the short tight skirts, and stop worrying about school girls.
We have 10 window units
I assumed that those we saw were the thief’s friends and that he shopped and hid the ax when strangers walked by. Note: this was filmed 2 blocks from Yeshiva Torah V’das.
Very high, but who cares? The high IQ members of MENSA that I’ve met are all nuts, but they are proud of their IQs
This problem does not exist in Villiamburg, Munroe or New Square since women there don’t drive. If we extend this ban to Flatbush and Boro Park we could solve the skirt problem, the traffic problem and the parking problem.
Maybe we ordered too many, but we must have taken home over 150 benchers left at our last chassanah. My conern is always that they waiters throw them out when clearing the tables.
Can anyone elighten me as to what Yeshiva, Bais mrdresh or shul this supposed Shavous drinking occurs?
We use the Shabbos clocks to turn the units on a few times daily on Shabbos. The built ins don’t allow more than one cycle.
Does anyone know which units in the 7000 9000 range have an auto restart after power interuption so they will work with Shabbos clock?
Very poor judgement although many drive after a drink or 2. She should not see him again
Any of the frum appliance stores, Drimmer, the Buzz etc can advise you. We have recent GE units that work with our Shabbos clocks and cheap Dawoos that don’t
Gone to Olom Habah
Tonigh, Motzei Shabbos I saw a man dressed yeshivish walking a dog. First time I’ve ever seen a man with a black hat with a dog.
Let them just give away all of their possessions today to those who don’t beleive them. Since they are so certain the end is tomorrow – what do they need?
Today’s NY Times has an article about some of these people and another about a man who made similiar predictions years ago. I assume that those behind the May 21st end of the world will makes the rounds of the talk shows beginning May 22.
Look, they’re done no harm and contributed to the economy with the ads.
From what I’ve seen these denim long skirts are almost exclusivly Jewish attire. I haven’t seen obviously non Jewish women wearing them. A lot of respectable middle aged and older frum women wear them in Brooklyn.
Now those tight flashy clothes that I see in Boro Park, that’s where the problem is.
