Proud Hadarling,
re: “smile again” You got it (according to my search).
For the history of the PBA-80 username scandal, see this thread:
http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/existentialism-the-worm-less-apple.
Apparently, the YWN CR has more scandals these days than the NYS Senate.
Even though R’ Moshe is mattir, he writes that he only drank it not to be “mechzi k’yuharo”. In other words, even according to R’ Moshe, it’s preferable to stay away from it. He encourages schnapps with a hechsher.
What did I start?

Mr. 80:
Moderator 80, is Popa Bar Abba your screen name?
no, but i think were related

Sometimes a Bit Over the Top:
I am mod 80
Little family spat here?
Could you mean ??? ??????
your original question as to whether this was profoundly brilliant or the opposite seems quite clear.
Moderator 80, is Popa Bar Abba your screen name? 🙂

shlomozalman,
I don’t understand hello99’s comment the way you do; I think he meant that excessive food grabbing, leaving nothing for the guests who sit down, is gezel. Not that one is alaways required to ask the baal simcha.
Oomis’ house! 🙂
Oomis,
Mazel Tov, may you have much nachas!
Oomis,
Yes, but you said you were joking. 🙂
TheGoq,
I see you’re at it again!
On the other thread, out of sensitivity to Feif Un, I didn’t respond to your last comment (there’s a kernel of truth to that). I respond now: (Feif Un, if your here, get out now before it’s too late!)
In general, I’m against corporal pun ishment, but your jokes deserve to be the exception! (Sorry everyone, it was a private joke.)
estherhamalka,
Don’t worry too much, we’ve been had.
mewho,
You are absolutely right. It is ossur to give tarfus to a child. It’s even ossur to put leather shoes on a two year old on Yom Kippur!
Of course! Chanie! Thanks, apushatayid & 80.
Mr. 80,
Who’s the third? (I hope not me:) )
Flatbush Momme,
I hope you are not serious, because if you are, you are seriously wrong. (Although your screen name makes me think that you and the OP are in cahoots.)
Let me get this straight… they’re makpid on cholov yisroel, but have no issue with pizza cooked in an oven that, in all likelihood, cooked basar b’chalav?
If this story is true, which I am (optimistically) skeptical about,
I guess these ladies are not big lamdonim.
I agree with apushatayid; something doesn’t add up. Are the following two statements from the OP consistent?
1) One says that money is tight, and that kosher pizza is almost twice as expensive.
2) their husbands … give much tzedoka to mosdos here an in Eretz Yisroel.
Maybe I’m being naive, but I suspect a misunderstanding here.
Moderator,
re: title change:
Good choice; better than mine.
Sam2,
These are separate issues.
obviously they can employ lawyers as experts, but that raises a host of other issues, since different practitioners of New York law are likely to have different views on any particular question
I wouldn’t think consulting lawyers should be a problem; dayanim regularly consult experts in all fields for their knowledge and expertise. Similarly, rabbonim regularly consult physicians for shailos involving medicine.
Y.W. Editor,
You mean pleasant. Everything is good.
I see the title of this thread was changed (probably for those who took offense at yeshiva being disassociated with the “real” world.
However, the new title is (imo) misleading; the OP had nothing to do with being “yeshivish” (whatever that means). My suggestion for a title?
- Should I continue in Yeshiva or go to work?
Feif Un,
Thanks so much for these links; I was going to search for that second one.
Do these two articles contradict each other to some extent? The first one maintains that R’ Moshe’s heter is “stronger than ever” while the second one promotes a different heter (which R’ Moshe would presumably have agreed to) which is “a total reverse” from his actual heter.
Gabboim,
It’s more complicated than that. Often, the parties enter into an agreement without stipulating certain conditions, and the ??? ??? will determine what the unspoken agreement (i.e. ??????) is, based on ???? ?????, which, in turn, is often determined by local law.
The actual term (from ????? ??? ??? ?,?) is: ??? ????? ???? ?????? ?????? ?????, but “??? ?????” fits better on the milk container.
Health,
The answer (for me) is yes to all of your questions, to varying derees.
This it? (I Googled it)
http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/mirroring-listening-the-right-way
OK, sorry.
Health,
We beg you, please be more careful; we want to keep on seeing you in the coffee room, not c”v in the news section!
Charlie,
I agree with your last post; knowing the “dina malchusa” is imperative for a dayan. However, he must not allow the legal theories behind it to affect his understanding of Choshen Mishpat.
1818,
Hashem yerachem! But I don’t understand your point; if someone who earns 200K and still suffers from needing help, why would that recommend working full time? Either way, your going to suffer (unless you’re in the 3% or so who earn more than 200k); might as well learn, if that’s your ambition anyway!
Anyhow, many people who support their children do it in a completely non-controlling way. See posts above; this is also, in my experience, very common.
The Goq,
Is there somewhere we can meat ? Because frank ly, I don’t like that you’re roast ing me. I cry “fowl ! (I don’t really want to meat ; I’m too chicken) .
hello99,
As an illustration of your point, in the case of bishul akum, a Yid’s supervision is not sufficient; he must do the cooking. The entire issue of cholov akum, however, is one of supervision; it matters not that the akum did the milking.
yw ty for the input
they said im welcome
TheGoq,
How dairy you, having a cow in the middle of our discussion! I have a beef with you.
yoyo56,
You’ve got your facts wrong (I have no idea if it was your rabbi’s mistake or yours).
1) If milk comes from a non kosher animal it is cholov tomei, an issur d’oraisa (cholov akum is d’rabbonon).
2) For milk to be c”y the mashgiach does not have to see the actual milking.
charlie:
“there are legitimate opinions that in the US, no direct supervision is necessary for milk to be “
It is not opinion but fact that there is no milk (or any other dairy products) from non-kosher animals that is permitted to be sold in the US. That may change, as there is a serious effort to permit camel milk to be sold.
First of all, you cut off my quote too early; I wrote to be kosher.
Second of all, despite the fact that it is extremely unlikely that there is any cholov tomei in our milk, the machlokes is whether the gezeirah still applies.
Even if camel milk becomes legal (interesting fact, btw), most likely, R’ Moshe’s heter would still apply. I would assume that it would still be illegal to mislabel camel’s milk as cow’s milk.
I’ve heard that even eating the food from a bris elsewhere is considered participating in a seudas mitzvah. Many caterers provide bags for take-home. Of course, one should be considerate and not take food home if there won’t be enough for the people who stayed.
TheGoq,
Thanks for the update.
As very few people today (in the USA, anyway) are actually “Ovdei Kochavim U’Mazalos,” the term Cholov Akum as applied to milk taht is not supervised by a Yid, might be considered inaccurate. Cholov Stam is therefore an appropriate name to refer to milk not obtained from the cow under the supervision of a Jew.
The laws of milk have nothing to do with whether the non-Jew is an actual “Oved Kochavim U’Mazalos,”. The term is unimportant (in halacha); there are historical reasons for its usage (see rabbiofberlin and truth be told’s posts. But as I mentioned in my previous post, it is important in halacha to distinguish between milk which is unquestionably non-kosher and milk which is subject to machlokes. Therefore, the term “cholov stam” is not interchangeable with the term “cholov akum (as these terms are commonly used).
it’s also great for kids…too many of them are not getting enough excersice. There is nothing like tossing a ball around with your kids…
There’s a huge difference between sports viewing (and following) and actively playing.
I have mixed feelings about the former, so I don’t want to get into it, but even those who are staunchly against it are generally in favor of the latter (at least in the US; E.Y. is different).
