    before shekia shnia (Tzais). Check!!! IMHO u don’t know what you are

    talking about. Tzais is not shekia shnia

    The span os ??? ?????? IS 3/4 0f 18 min(generally accepted MIL )

    sorry to disappoint you, but i happen to know i’m right on this as i just got semicha 2 weeks ago on Hilchos Shabbos. And a fair percentage of the test was on this exact topic.

    At the risk of sounding egoistic, I happen to think I am somewhat of a boki in this area. (I also aced my Semicha test)

    actually parkways are called that as most of them started out as scenic park routes.

    Why do 24/7 7-11 stores have locks on their doors?

    Why do banks leave their doors wide open, but chain the pens to

    the counter?

    The only reason i like the idea of uniforms is because otherwise it would take an average of 6 hours for my teenage daughter to leave to school, deciding what she wants to wear. I think its worth the trade-off.

    on the Torah Ore (Jerusalem) application it says its a seminary.

    I personally use 87 regular. however I know someone who only uses 95 premium plus and their 1985 ford taurus is still running smooth. its hard to ignore the facts. Not sure if it pays off in the end, they claim it does.

    I definitely would not send my daughter to a sem. where they say “sphrach”. Sort of explains the place already. No need for further posts on this thread.

    Electric Cigarettes (E-Cigarettes) are a waste of money and do not satisfy smokers. I had one while trying to quit. It does not taste like a cigarette or feel like smoking. Every single person (not exxagerating) I know who has used one, told me it did not work for them. It’s a waste of $85+. If you personally used one and it worked for you please let me know!

    If they ask why they should give money, if possibly a fair percentage is going towards costumes, car and the like. Tell them that just like by the beis hamikdosh, if you had the right intentions your money went to something important. So too here, if they have proper thoughts, their money will actually go to the yeshiva. Someone with improper intentions, his money will be used for the expenses.

    Most store owners let you take them as it’s great marketing, and it boosts sales. Even if you are not buying now, you may end up buying a different time because of this. Many stores even state specifically that these promotional items are for anyone even people not buying, as it brings potential customers into the store. With shopping bags, it usually has the stores name on it and is great advertising, and they are more than happy for you to take a reasonable amount even when not purchasing.

    If what he is doing is breaching the contract(Which he probably is) You have full right legally and min halacha to withhold the rent money. There’s no need for a lawyer even. If you have any friends who understand how to read business contracts, have them look it over and let you know if it’s a breach in the contract. Good luck.

    If the guy tells you that you failed, throw the car into neutral and revv the engine. And call out to the instructor “hold on tight”. Trust me, he’ll pass you because he’ll be scared to test you again if you fail.
