HachamMember
Breakfast or a piece of cake? I see people taking a piece of cake and coffee, but it is hardly a full fledged breakfast.
HachamMember$10,000 per shidduch after charging $200 per date after charging $100 to look at the resume?
Can I be your partner?
August 1, 2011 6:56 pm at 6:56 pm in reply to: Tipping when the service is terrible. (or not there at all) #792697HachamMemberSo if someone wants to stiff better nothing than an undertip?
HachamMemberYou must have good cousins that will take your kids. How long were you away?
HachamMemberLook, both the Christians and Muslims store our Torah to include in their holy books, and boy did they both mess it up real bad!
HachamMemberWhat did that teshuva say about tikun haolam?
HachamMemberHow frequent are Litvish-Chasidish/Heimish marriages?
HachamMemberCare to explain?
HachamMemberMarriage amongst the Shevatim is referred to as intermarriage in the Torah. (Its mentioned it was a Simcha when the Shevatim were allowed to again intermarry with Shevet Binyomin.)
HachamMemberThere is a different type of keyboard called a “capacitive keyboard”, but you probably don’t have it.
I can only try:
IF this type of keyboard — that doesn’t involve circuits when pressed — were used on Shabbos (without typing – just using the arrow keys and <Enter>), what issur (if any) would transpire that would prevent the usage of a computer (that was already on) via this technology on Shabbos?
HachamMemberyitayningwut: Your comment implicitly implies that Harav Shlomo Zalman would matir talking on a telephone on Shabbos, but just wouldn’t “openly” pasken so. Whatever “openly” means. Are you sure you meant that?
HachamMemberThere’s lots of inappropriate for what passes for PG13. There is good reason even the gentiles acknowledge viewership should be restricted even for PG13.
HachamMemberDo many Sephardim want to marry Ashkenazim?
HachamMemberWhich means even PG13 is horrible. There is a reason even the gentiles know someone under 13 shouldn’t watch it.
HachamMembermommamia22: Why did this mekubel tell you that you would never have children if you didn’t marry him? And what prompted your visit to him?
HachamMemberIntermarriage does not necessarily mean different religions. It is a generic term:
1.
marriage between members of different groups.
2.
marriage between a man and woman of different social classes.
HachamMemberDid you mean to send this via email and mistakenly posted it here?
HachamMemberForgive my ignorance of microcircuits, but when you click an icon or bookmark on a computer, it triggers some action in the circuit-board?
And according to those that prohibit electricity based on m’saken mana, can it be said the simple act of clicking a icon (opening an application) or clicking a bookmark (leading to a website) might in fact not be m’saken mana (and thus prohibited)?
HachamMemberI can only try: How does the points you just made in your clarification effect the impressibility of turning on a fluorescent light (either old-fashioned or newer) on Shabbos?
HachamMemberIf a computer is on 24/7, how are you boneh a circuit by clicking on a bookmark? Alternatively, how is it m’saken mana?
HachamMemberFrom what I’ve heard, Lake George and Niagara Falls are popular vacation destinations from the Catskills. Perhaps others can offer more details.
July 31, 2011 6:12 am at 6:12 am in reply to: Do what feels good, give in to your impulses, and worry about consequences later #792082HachamMemberIn order to address your concern intelligently, please provide some examples of what you speak. From the vagueness of your OP I have no idea what you are talking about.
HachamMemberWhat about electricity renders it impermissible on Shabbos? i.e. If a computer is on 24/7, what would be the issur to click on bookmarks to go to websites (no typing)?
July 31, 2011 6:06 am at 6:06 am in reply to: DIVORCE CRISIS – young couples getting divorced #1200113HachamMemberAccording to various gedolei rabbonim speaking on the topic of divorce, most divorces were avoidable.
HachamMemberHow does one assess what the “going rate” is? Even in Brooklyn alone the Sefardim and the Chasidim and the Yeshivsish communities will all have very different scales. And even within any one of those groups there will be a very wide range.
HachamMemberI would certainly characterize it as a crisis. Why any less than the “Shidduch Crisis”? When you have an epidemic where people are shamelessly wearing a miniskirt (i.e. above the knee – either literally or with movement or sitting) and shaitel combination, and even have the audacity to come to shul(!) like this in the frummest of neighborhoods, yeah I think crisis might be a little tame of a description for it.
And what is this telling men not to look have to do with the issue? Sure they shouldn’t. But we still need to dress non-provocatively whether they look or not. That means (amongst other things) at the very minimum an *always* covered knee. There’s no way you are not going to be seen even inadvertently. You can’t go in public (and that includes cars) immodestly, period.
