    I think the fact that this trial is on major news networks will make a difference in its outcome.

    Shopping, please dont go into this ‘suspecting everyone’ mode.

    A few posters already took it upon themselves to call out other posters, and they got bitten, it caused a lot of hard feelings, leave this to the mods.

    What does passing to the right?

    if the right lane has no cars, and the left lane is jammed, are you legally required to sit in the left lane?

    I do not believe that this is the law.

    I always do it.

    If I am entering the highway, and there is still a few feet of the exit (or entrance) lane, I will stay on it until I am forced to merge.

    Why in the world must I join all the other cards waiting in traffic.

    Also, if I am in traffic, and there is a entrance lane to my right, I will quickly change onto that lane and change back only when I am forced to do so.

    Why in the world should I wait in traffic when I dont have to, and why am I worse than the person that is now entering the highway.

    I think the issue is that even though you promise to behave only as is the standard of that camp, yet that is all until you decide to behave so.

    Meaning that if you for whatever reason that you are fed up with the more orthodox lifestyle and dress code, you can decide no longer to lead this temporary life style.

    Not that I think you will do so, only that the camp has the right to think so.

    More so, I would be upset if the camp I send my children hire staff that are below the camps standard, and rely on the staff to change for the summer.

    you have to keep in mind that a camp is not just someones personal business venture, parents put a lot of trust in the camp,which includes in hiring staff that are up to the standard in yiddishkeit.

    And if it happens that we fall and transgress and actually enjoy the forbidden fruit, we certainly don’t advertise that on a public forum.

    Rashi explains in a few places that ‘MIN’ means someone that does not believe in Torah Shel Bal Peh, and that is the Talmidei Yeshu.

    That is why always Shoal Min Echod, was someone that was fluent in torah shel bal ksav yet didnt believe in shel bal peh.

    Slichos,

    Count me out. As a long time reader I can say with confidence that most CR readers and posters do not want any poster to leave unless the posters a troll.

    We have been through tough times, feelings have been hurt. The ‘regulars’ already know better than to hurt ones feelings.

    I don’t know how can take the liberty and poke some fun at someone else’s expense.

    I think that it really depends what he revealed, there might be more secrets he gave away to our enemies.

    However, if all he revealed was that the US is spying on its own citizens, then I think he is a hero.

    I think that each spying instance should require a warrant. the government should not be allowed to do whatever it wants if it is illegal.

    All (as far as I know) Snowden did was to reveal that NSA is doing illegal stuff.

    By now it might be to late to file a police report. also, you might not be able to get the surveillance footage.

    I would probably contact the local body shop and see how much it would cost to repair, then I will see if it pays to file a claim or not.

    If you don’t mind to answer, how did the allergist diagnose you with the allergy, and what made you think in the first place that you have food allergies?

    Yes, the blood pressure is effected. But shouldn’t really be any concern for a healthy person.

    I am not implying that you should not call Hatzoloh or EMS. Rather that the cardiac side effects are minimal compared to the benefit. Besides that some allergic reaction actually decrease the blood pressure, so the fact that Epi brings it up is beneficial.

    Of course the heart is effected, it increases. However s does the heart rate increase when you run on the treadmill.

    The primary concern of a child having a severe allergic reaction is not the heart rate. Rather a clear airway and normal blood pressure.

    Heart rate does get effected, but in a normal healthy person that’s not a big concern. The major concern is once the Epi wears off and the symptoms come back.

    Of course the ER will do cardiac monitoring, usually for around 4-6 hours but that’s not the real concern.

    How did the allergist diagnose you?

    Either way, you should make sure to carry a Epi pen with you as it might save your life.

    Unless you have a heart condition you don’t have to be concerned about the increased heart rate.

    The reason you should go to the ER is because the Epi wears off, it’s only a temporary relief.

    Yes, the old theory used to be that only someone with a history of sever allergic reactions should use an epipen.

    However currently it is the symptoms that dictate if an epipen should be used or not.

    Pre hospital protocols no longer require the patient to have a known allergy.

    Keep in mind that epipen should only be used if there is respiratory or circulatory compromise. Also, you should seek medical attention after using an epipen.

    I once got a call from ‘Verizon’ that they have a new service which would reduce my long distance charge.

    The guy stated that its a mandatory change, only that since this new law just passed verizon did not have time to mail out notices..

    At first I said OK, so they then transferred me to a verizon rep which told me that this company had nothing to do with Verizon and is a private company.

    I told him that I am not interested, they then transferred me back to this ‘company’ I told him that this sounds like a scam. He called his supervisor, she repeated this entire nonsense. about this mandatory stuff.

    I told her that if this is the case, than why call me, if its mandatory then do it without my consent, if not than have a great day. she started talking about fines and fees if I dont consent, I just told her to have a great day.

    So now it has changed to a few sitting out from official kiddush clubs.

    I cannot recall seeing any cake in a shull during davening, OK maybe when there is a kiddush, they would bring it out at the end of mussaf.

    I have davened in plenty of chasiddishe shulls, yet I have never been at a kiddush club. yes, I dont go to those near off chasidishe shulls..

    Any decent and serious chasiddishe shull has no ‘events’ going on during davening.

    You mentioned coffee, although coffee is not the subject here, I will agree that this is an ‘issue’ in a lot of chassidishe shull, but it is not an event, it only takes a few minutes to drink a coffee and is no way a social gathering.

    XPS 12 is great, takes just a few seconds to power up.

    the screen flips around so it becomes a tablet.

    Has touch screen.

    Health, some do and some do not.

    Doulas usually are NOT trained to deliver, Paramedics and EMTs are trained to deliver and resuscitate the newborn if needed, resuscitate is what they do on a normal basis.

    Midwives call us to be on standby in case there are any complications. .
