or how Joseph became Chacham..

ZK, yes i sure do.

in those olden times, I was just a reader, even now, I do not post much. I like reading and learning, rather than posting my opinions.

All I remember is that eclipse left us without any prior notice, I dont know her but I hope that all is well with her.

Its a clear fact, pregnacy is not easy women are emotional and hormonal. combine all of that and they can use our support.

Health, please dont take it personally, just state your opinions and keep n moving.

Interesting, the Mohel does not come in contact with the baby utill the eigth day (Mogel Fischer did not perform briss on the baby that got herpes untill three weeks after the briss)

There are a lot of doctors, nurses and aids that have come in contact with the baby.

in my opinion, all of these people should be tested for herpes only after they are tested should the mohel be tested.

This was Fischers mistake, poeple in the ‘know’ have advised him to surrender and have himself tested. He should have fought it! since the baby was a three week old baby, all the nurses doctors and family member who had come in contact with the baby should first be investigated and tested and only afterwards should they test Fischer.

However, I still think that there should be a vaad that would consist of rabonim and doctors which would hand out certifications, I think that it is ridicoulos that anyone can call himself a Mohel.

OK, so I appologize then,

I dont know if he will or not be in gehinom, as I dont really care.

I just cannot stand the fact that he makes fun others and of things that others keep holy.

yes, it is challenging for the husband to remain supportive with an emotional and hormonal sensitive wife.

However it is the husbands obligation to be there for his wife, she is going through hard times, you should be in this together.

The best thing would be that you actually let her know that even though you do not really understand and know what she feels, you will try your best to be there for her.

it pays!

I have noticed this as well.

I always hold the door regardless for the other persons gender. most goyim will always nod or murmle a thank you. But not all yidden will do so.

However, I think that it is not because yidden are rude, it is because we are isolated and were never trained that A) you should hold the door for the next person, B) it is polite and correct to acknowledge the fact that someone held the door for you.

Mothers, make sure to teach this to your children!

Metzitza Bpeh is a Mesora, It should not be stopped unless absolutley necessary.

However I think that there should be a vaad which should oversee all mohalim.

there should be giudlines, which would include proper training, and saftey precautions.

The vaad should be have rabonim as well as mohalim and Docotors.

Each mohel would have to get certification, which would mean that he is well versed in halacha as well as in all saftey precations.

recertification would be needed after a preiod of time.

Just like we now require all bakeries to have a hashgacha certification, the same should apply for mohalem.

I think that this is common scents.

Mods, who are the we?

are you sitting around the circular CR table sipping from your mugs and modding posts on your laptop?

that sounds like a bunch of fun!

That is correct.

Also, according to secular law, there is no reason that you are obligated to donate blood. (hence the term donating is used).

However, in a torah veiw, one can argue that even though no one can demand that you donate blood, however there is Lo Samod Al dam Reacho.

there are not ‘many’ dangers or risks involved when giving blood.

i am not tfighting any battle, I was simply stating my opinion. I have mentioned that more than once.

i respect the desicion of the roshey yeshivos, and I am in no way to challenge them.

that said, it is my opinion, that this is not toradig.

You on the other hand present arguments that are only on a personal level, your argument is limited to the individual that wants to enroll in BMG,

however I was speaking in general. concerning the entire idea.

again, thatnks for letting me know my options, really appreciate that.

OK, you really want me to reply?

Chazal tell us to get married. you have no right to create any provisions. they do not have to mention three months or any other silly loophole.

Regarding coming back early.

that might be good advice. however this has nothing with what I said, I was talking in general. that in my opinion it is not Tora’dig.

You dont really disagree, rather you have a way to work around this. good, your smart!

Ok here you go.

A) it is NOT at the expense of learning,

B) I would challenge you to first let me know that this mitzva has an exception, then I will chanllenge your challenge..

I would like to state, that I am in no postion to challenge the daas of ANY legitimate rav or Rosh Yeshiva, I was only posting my opinion.

Yes, I play flute by ear/air.

I can read notes, however I rarely do.

Against it.

how in the world can you demand a jew to do something against the torah?!

and it is a Yeshiva that is demanding such a thing! for what? for Hashems torah.. well hashem wants Buchurim to get married.

If it is to good to be true, Probably isnt!

you are validating apushatayid, however he had a different reason as to why you should use a computer only in front of other people.

I have done the same in our business. there is no filter (only open DNS to which anyone with a little computer knowledge can easily work around.

Therefore all computers are at all times usable only in front of other people.

yeah! now Popa is worried about side effects.

THIS got be rolling!

That article was about an attorney that fights tickets.

Dont think that he will reveal to many tricks on how NOT to get a ticket, it is in his interest that you DO get the ticket!

Common, You can take pictures with your camera, and keep music on your iPod.

Addiction is real, if it concerns you, try to avoid it if possible.

Although I try to refrain from giving personal compliments on an anonymous blog.

However I do see that you would make a great RN as you love to learn, and your easy going nature.

Have a bunch of Hatzloche.

This weeks Mishpacha had an interesting article regarding something similar.

Someone once gave a larger than usual sum for tzaduka (accumulated masser), did not take long for people to start knocking on their doors requesting money and appointments.

I had the same thing, after donating to a cause, I made it to the list. Each night I have rabonnim and gabaim demanding to sit with me for just five minutes, it always turns into some 30/45 minutes.

I don’t have the time for them.

Besides that whatever I pledge, they start arguing that I have to give at least xxx amount of dollars.

I really don’t know what to do about this.

Hershi, I must say that you are ‘intellectually’ incorrect.

You probably posted your last post in bed.

PBA two posts (childbirth and calories) really made me laugh.

Although I believe that childbirth is painful, I think that most women are making it sound a lot worse.

Let’s not forget about the six week maternity leave that comes along.
