Wookie Jookie !
Very often, the experiments will yield results other than those intended. For example, no one set out to invent the X-Ray machine but it was the result of another experiment. So while 8 Billion to crash atoms together seems like a lot, you never know what else can come from it.

I have been through this first hand…Rabbonim should stick to their areas of expertise and pasken halacha. A COMPETENT therapist should work in conjunction with the Rabbonim.
I graduated 15 years ago.. (additionally, I took classes at other non jewish-affiliated (gasp! co-ed) schools, so I can speak from both ends of the spectrum) Here’s my take:
You can get as much out of Touro as you are willing to put in. If you want to just slide through you can, whereas if you take it seriously one can get a quality education.
I myself was going in to a family business so job placement was not an issue. I do know from others that the school itself will not be very helpful in job placement. Touro has an excellent reputation for accounting and graduates often find jobs at top firms. Pre-law graduates also seem to place very well. I know that the programs for social work, PT, OT, etc. seem to be popular but I do not know much about them.
Good luck.
SL1 +1 Well said.
Smartphones are only allowed to use the various banking apps that allow you to mkae payments for tuition or to the institutions that ban smartphone existance.
“They were ok with my using the smartphone for looking up information for them”
These must be the children of the hypocrites whose parents wouldn’t have a TV in the house but sent them over to my house to watch TV when they needed some alone time.

Perhaps if people invited singles for meals and put them in normal social situations, the male and female may get to know each other and a shidduch might occur…
Take mezonos rolls.
Contact Jerry Jones and ask for a tryout.
Think First- I don’t think a boss or business owner has to give ma’aser on his gross income.
RABBAIM- What is the title? Who is the Author?
hello99- do you have a source for your psak?
I’m confused about the generation skip. What difference should that make? What if money was left to three generations at one time (my parents, myself, my children?)
And if like the o/p asked, at least 10% was left to charity, do the heirs have to give on the remainder?
We have this going on in my family now. I wonder if the State of Israel is a valid Tzedaka!
Anyone who says that they are using Alcohol as an outlet and can stop whenever they want is fooling themselves.
If someone needs an outlet they should try physical activity.
Get help… Please.
I think each individual must ask their LOR.
MorahRach- I’m sorry if you found this to be an attack. When posts are not written properly they are very often difficult to read or can be misunderstood. If you have something to post, write it when you are not rushed and can make sure that it makes sense.
Please forgive me.
MorahRach- This is America. Please use proper English in your posts.
The Torah way is to send a servant or go yourself to a foreign land and approach a well of water……take it from there….
If your Doctor thinks it is medically appropriate then do it. I had it done in 2001 and have enjoyed great success.
Interestingly enough this happened to me about a half an hour ago. I ran in to my soon to be former sister-in-law and her husband. He was very nice and cordial, she wouldn’t even look my way. Shame of it is, My ex and i were their shadchanim and now I feel bad for him because without doubt she will end up with the same family caused problems as her sister.
I can’t remember where I read this, but I’ll post it anyway (not verbatim).
The reason why we say kaddish (or daven for the omud or learn) for a niftar is to replace the kiddush hashem that has been lost since that persons passing. The best way to replace that kiddush hashem is to learn torah. As not every one was capable of learning (no artscroll back then) they would daven for the omud. The problem arose as to what to do for a koton who could not learn and was not able to daven for the omud until his bar mitzvah. It was for these children that the saying of kaddish was instituted.
Kaddish being said by a mourner etc.. is first mentioned by the Ohr Zarua in the 13th century.
2qwerty- You said it yourself in your post “why bother walking to a gas station when I can call Chaverim.” You CHOSE not to walk to a gas station.
Were you on a dark deserted road and in danger? It sounds to me like you were absent minded in letting your car run out of gas, and just plain lazy in calling chaverim.
I think that you are wrong. Almost every Amusement Park (or the like) will charge you admission whether you will be using the rides or not. Most also charge a separate fee for parking.

Czar– Footnote! Nice Pun!
Will the kosher food stands be open?
not my mother in laws cooking!
avhaben- do you have statistics to back up your assumption?
Pascha- I was being sarcastic.
If he wants to stay in his Yeshiva, Touro is an option. Ohr Hachaim in Queens is also flexible about going to school at night.
I’ve heard that people are happy with Lander as well.
There is always….. Gasp! Yeshivas Rabeinu Yitzchak Elchanan.
“Yeshivish Good Learners Who Want to go to College”
Isn’t this an oxymoron? I always thought that it was not possible for for someone who wants to go to college to be a good learner and/or Yeshivish!
Portly by definition means you are carrying too much weight in the belly. Medical studies have shown that men with increased belly fat have a higher instance of heart problems and stroke.
Someone who has no plan on how he will support her and the 7 children while he is learning in Kollel.
Will the kosher hot dog stands be open?
This is standard when buying tickets to events in a venue such as this.
Here is a link to Madrich L’bnei Ashkenaz by R’ Binyamin Hamburger of Machon Moreshes Ashkenaz of Bnei Brak. He has done extensive research on the various minhagim. The Hebrew version is current for this year, the English version is a few years old.

If you are questioning if you are an alcoholic, you usually are.
Are you looking for something or someone that may be beyond your reach?
If you are looking for a boy who is looking to learn and be supported and you or your parents are unable to support I would imagine that you wouldn’t get many yes’s
147- It’s called a joke
how old is she?
lets start one if there isn’t- Mods can you share our contact info with each other?
cherrybim- well said, bravo!
Tough choice between being able to see kriyas yam suf or maamid har sinai.
Holy Brother. Can you please try to use spell check and throw in some punctuation and grammar. I doubt that I am alone in saying that it is very hard to understand what you are trying to say (especially the last sentence)
Thank You
OP- Looking for the chumra of the day……..
Of course this will come off as making all men appear shallow (and I am a male)……
Boys are most concerned with money/support and looks. The money and support he will already know about from the shadchan, and he’ll make up his mind pretty quickly about the looks.
Girls are probably looking for something more emotional and it will take time for that to develop.
