Didn’t anyone read Infallible’s post?
more: your comment is OT (and unwarranted). Bedwetting can happen to teeagers and it isn’t an issue of just ‘training him not to’.
And it is a big social problem when they go to Yeshiva.
define ‘best’
10 mins? where do they get that from? Givat Zev has many positive features, but location isn’t one of them.
5 weeks is not long enough to lose your weight. I found that it took me a few months. Slim people do put on more weight than the average during pregnancy.
I bought myself a few new clothes for my after-birth size so that I had something that fit me (and it was surprising how many people asked me how I managed to lose weight so quickly. I was actually 2 sizes larger)
And I agree with everything oomis said.
Wales is colourful enough as it is. But how did you get hold a home version?
apushatayid: “Are there any “professionally written jewish novels” that dont include espionage, nazis/skin heads, long lost and/or off the derech relatives in the plot? “
Doubt it. Most topics are out-of-bounds for Jewish books, so that’s about all that’s left. Unless you are very creative.
I agree with Leyzer. After reading non-Jewish thrillers, I haven’t found any decent Jewish ones.
There are quite a number of good non-thrillers, such as Invisible Me, Four seasons of Golda Mirel, Daughter of Two Mothers all mentioned above.
I read most of Henya Meyer’s ‘This is American’ serialised in the Hamodia, which is now available as a book. She writes well.
Leyzer: I did enjoy Meir Baram’s books as a child. They are excellent. But if I remember correctly, they are for a far younger audience. So are the Anver Gold books.
Mommamia, that may be good enough to clean your hands to make a brocho, but not for bread.
popa: Perhaps you could make sure you have no suitable cup to wash. Or that the water isn’t good for washing.
This doesn’t answer your original question, I know.
Csar and others, too.
“I spray with St. Moritz Well Done Oven Cleaner all the collars and cuffs and any spots on my tee shirts, and any other stains on my clothes, EXCEPT SILK!!!”
don’t use it on wool, either.
SayIDidIt: “I use Vanish liquid to spray my shirts AND I add a cup into the WM, and I STILL get stains on some shirts! It is so frustrating!! “
So your real problem is that stains don’t come out. You can save time and skip the spraying – sounds like your shirts will look the same.
How about the other suggestions here – dry cleaning or using a different detergent?
what’s a tehillim performance?
something specific to the US or do we have those, too?
it’s still there.
You double posted your OP.
Yeah, laundry does take time. I take plenty shortcuts, and it still takes longer than I want it to. Just one of thoes things.
I add Vanish liquid/powder to the washing powder instead of spraying.
I find it does the same as the spray, but it’s quicker.
If the stains don’t come out, I add a bit of bleach to the next wash (only for *all whites*, of course)
Also, it’s worth making sure they change shirts daily. Less black and easier to clean.
Loyal Jew: “The family that matters should be the one we want our child to marry into later on. When shidduch season begins, bla bla bla “
No. And you don’t believe that either.
Oral B
can we do toothbrushes next?
Yellow123: and that’s not only where the money goes. It’s disgraceful.
I avoid them.
is there something we’ve being doing right lately?
The Frumguy: I’m assuming you have no idea what these couples go through. If you did, you wouldn’t question whether or not they deserve our tzedaka. If someone is suffering, I want to help.
Whether you personally donate is your decision. But why question whether they are deserving of donations?
And why shouldn’t I tell you that you’re being insensitive?
Could you post the link/code?
Thanks
Yes, I do. Why not?
They cannot invite everyone to the meal – I wouldn’t expect that unless I’m close friend/family.
haifagirl: I think it goes like this:
You need three conditions to return food to the fire:
– flame covered
– intention to return
– still holding onto pot.
The first condition must be fulfilled.
Only one of the other two is needed, bedieved.
I think what I learned about putting on the floor is that it is so obviously off the fire, that even if you do have the intention to return, you cannot do so.
Dear Popa Bar Abby
I burnt the popcorn and ruined the pot. I’m really feeling bad about my failure and I’m finding it difficult to fall asleep at night.
How can I put this behind me and face life once again?
Hope you can help me.
Failed Popcorner
(PS I have no microwave, so that’s not an option)
OneOfMany, where are you?
It’s the Yiddish equivilent of Bar Shattya’s ‘dolt’.
if they had an ‘image in their head’, then they will [always?] end up marrying someone different.
“because it is like 100x more awesome than Harry Potter”
you may get lynched
OOM: thanks 🙂
Logician: So did I, so you may be in my age range.
Many of them have recently become available online.
Basha comes from Batya.
nope.
Diana Wynne Jones. Authoress of many fantasy books. Ingenious.
‘contact us’ emails the editors. they aren’t mods.
AFAIK, you can’t email a mod, unless you’re one of those here with inside info.
the easiest way is to put in a post with whatever comment you want to make and hope that it won’t actually get posted to the public.
If we’re doing HP, how about DWJ?
Nah, I don’t expect to find any fellow fans on an American website.
Agree with Health. I was going to write almost word-for-word what 42 did, but he got there first.
I’d also recommend OpenDNS.
2qwerty: if the thread stays on track, then it’s a good idea for the OP to acknowledge and respond to a post. Depends on the type of thread and how it evolves.
ICOT is thoughtful on all threads. It’s good to be noticed. Thanks ICOT!
I received a computer-generated serial number. Last 4 characters were 1C0T.
I agree with derszoger. i would avoid electronic toys, particularly at that young age. Actually, I don’t like too many music/light toys either.
Logician – I don’t get your point. What’s wrong with learning being fun?
where has ICOT gone?
A chometz-seeker. Like those lawnmower-like treasure finding gadgets.
Just run it over the place and it will beep when it finds the chometz you missed.
welcome back Sacrilege!
As has already been said, there are many different types of people at Ohr Someach. Speak to his refs.
Avi K: Not sure what you mean. Who’s wandering about? They are going to the store. That’s what this discussion is about – separate times at the store for yeshiva boys and seminary girls.
Avi K: The problem is overcrowding due to 1000+ yeshiva/seminary students. They outnumber the members of the kehilla. Students don’t create enough demand to make another store viable.
Actually, until about 10 years ago, there was only one store. Now there are two.
read the OP. He does but he wants someone to help.
where?
in Yerushalayim, I can recommend an excellent one
