August 4, 2019 12:21 pm at 12:21 pm in reply to: If There Would be a Jewish Music Hall of Fame.. #1769318iacisrmmaParticipantMost Hall of Fames are for “older” people not those still active.
iacisrmmaParticipantZD: FRom the crc website
Swordfish (Xiphias gladius) does not seem to have scales when one looks at a sample. Some say that it has scales that are embedded to such an extent that it is impossible to remove them without making a hole. Others say that it has kosher scales on parts of its body which fall off during its development. Still others claim that it may have some kosher scales even at the time of harvest.
The Orthodox Union traditionally treats swordfish as non-kosher. (See Sh’ailos and Teshuvos Tzitz Eliezer 9:40 who discusses a statement made by the Knesses HaGedolah about “cherev hadag” and explains why we cannot use the statement to permit swordfish.)
If R’ Schechter as you assert says it is kosher why then does the OU treat it as non kosher?
iacisrmmaParticipantNo

iacisrmmaParticipantBe the Bal Koreh. You are forced to stay awake.
iacisrmmaParticipantI don’t have first hand knowledge but farmers grew their own crops and fed their livestock from that. Weather (drought or very heavy rains) had more to do with the price of feed than geopolitical concerns.
iacisrmmaParticipantOnce again minhagim shonim. My family did not and does not split meals. it was either milchigs or fleishigs. However, the RAMAH states 494:3 OICHLIM MAACHAL CHALAV VACHAR KACH MAACHAL BASAR UZTRICHIM LHAVI EMAHEM BEIS LECHEM AHL HASHULCHAN. I once heard from a rav in my community that the minhag in Hungary was that the night meals were milchigs and the day meals fleishigs but I know people of hungarian descent who are not noheig that way.

NOTICE THE RAMAH SAYS CHALAV not gevina.
I dont know anyone who holds milk to be chamar medina.why would pizza not be “yom tov’dik”? what about baked ziti, lasagne eggplant? my family has enjoyed all of these on shavuous along with blintzes and cheesecake.
May 15, 2019 5:23 pm at 5:23 pm in reply to: Do women need to stay up all night of Shavuos? #1727499iacisrmmaParticipantReb G: No
i dont see the humor……I look around shul at all the people sleeping who stayed up at night and understand those who go to sleep for 3 or 4 hours. I don’t know about you but I dont recall alos being the time that one can daven l’chatchila. Was Maamad Har Sinai at Alos or Haneitz?May 15, 2019 3:33 pm at 3:33 pm in reply to: Is there a hetter for staying up both nights of Shavuos? #1727448iacisrmmaParticipantNo, we get turned off by those with “holier then thou” attitudes. Yes yoiu quoted a source (one that I have used) It is not out of “ignorance” but states outright Vachshav Lo Nahagim Kein. While there are those who do stay up both nights dont call it “wimping out” to be meikil when Rov yidden don’t have this minhag.
iacisrmmaParticipantAdina Sash is Flatbush Girl and if you dont know her or her hashkafa dont tell me how I should vote. Sash would faster vote fot an LGBT agenda than a frum agenda.
iacisrmmaParticipantJoseph – Friday night averages between 90 minutes to 2 hours. Daytime averages slightly less as we have one less course.
RG: there is a story in one of R’ Paysach Krohn’s books about two talmidei chachmim, one who sang more with his children while the second sang less with more divrei torah. the children of the first talmid chacham stayed close to their roots while the other one’s chidren strayed and they asked him why the first was more successful in raising his children and the second responded because he sang more with his children.
iacisrmmaParticipantWe dont say it on shabbos since we want to count them as part of our 100 brochos (Mishna Berurah 46:14)
and when you are being yotzer with someone elses brocha you dont say BHUBS.http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=14170&st=&pgnum=147
May 13, 2019 4:55 pm at 4:55 pm in reply to: Does Rav Chaim Kanievsky shlita prohibit men from shaving their beards? #1726471iacisrmmaParticipantWhile R’ Chaim may be recognized as the Gadol Hador I am not sure if he has the title of Poseik Hador as R’ Moshe Feinstein was recognized as such or R’ Shlomo Zalman or R’ Eliyashiv.
May 12, 2019 9:32 pm at 9:32 pm in reply to: Does Rav Chaim Kanievsky shlita prohibit men from shaving their beards? #1725889iacisrmmaParticipantWhy dont you fly to EY and ask him yourself?
May 12, 2019 9:32 pm at 9:32 pm in reply to: Is there a hetter for staying up both nights of Shavuos? #1725887iacisrmmaParticipantOnce again RG you turn off those who you are trying to convince by your “wimping out to be meikel” comment. This yesh omrim has not been followed for who knows how long although my shul does have a learning seder on the second night but not for the entire night.
May 12, 2019 9:31 pm at 9:31 pm in reply to: Do women need to stay up all night of Shavuos? #1725876iacisrmmaParticipantis this it? The one that says if a woman counted sefira then she should if she knows how?

May 12, 2019 12:11 pm at 12:11 pm in reply to: Is there a hetter for staying up both nights of Shavuos? #1725728iacisrmmaParticipantto answer the question that started this trhead…..there is no issur in staying up both nights.
iacisrmmaParticipantit dpends. are those in the family with good singing voices home? are there extra guests who want to sing more? my neighbor sings more and louder than us.
iacisrmmaParticipantzsk: I am not sure what you find appalling. My LOR as well as my friend’s LOR advise not to buy shmitta wines so as to avoid shailos.
iacisrmmaParticipantYO: I am sorry but peyos behind the ears is not “ashkenazik meshugas”.
iacisrmmaParticipantlaskern: it says כי אם צלי אש, but not to what level. it just cant be raw. rare or medium through roasting takes it out of the raw stage.
April 29, 2019 9:02 pm at 9:02 pm in reply to: “Acharon shel Pessach” – No other Yom Tov is called so, why is it called that? #1720530iacisrmmaParticipantFrom Rabbi Chaim Fogelman as printed in the OK’s Kosher Spirit magazine (spring 2017)
We don’t find any other Yom Tov which has a special name denoting the last day – there’s no Acharon shel Sukkos or Acharon shel Shavuos.
The prophet Yirmiyahu says, “Therefore, behold, days are coming, says the L-rd, when it will no longer be said, As the L-rd lives who brought Israel up from the land of Egypt.” (Yirmiyahu 16:14)
We call the final day of Pesach “acharon” (the last) because we demonstrate our faith that this Pesach will be the last Pesach in exile. When Moshiach comes, we won’t celebrate Pesach as we do now, which is why we refer specifically to the last day as the Final Day of Pesach.
iacisrmmaParticipantWhile shmitta is only in EY, the fruit of EY is considered shmitta even when exported.
April 29, 2019 12:42 pm at 12:42 pm in reply to: WARNING : Shemita wines being sold in NY/NJ #1720344iacisrmmaParticipantlakewhut: True but their are certain halachos regarding using it for cooking, not to use it for havdalah if your makpid to overflow the kos, making sure to drink the entire bottle.
iacisrmmaParticipantrg: I believe it is time for you to take a trip to the past, find the baal hagadah and ask him the question directly. then come back and tell us the answer.
April 18, 2019 1:02 pm at 1:02 pm in reply to: What sleep away camp should we send our daughter to?? #1717463iacisrmmaParticipantSo going to a new camp does work out.
April 18, 2019 1:02 pm at 1:02 pm in reply to: What sleep away camp should we send our daughter to?? #1717460iacisrmmaParticipantMy oldest daughter went to what was a “new” camp (its first year), Camp Bnos Maarava and we were so pleased we continued our affiliation with them wit her and our two younger daughters for another 15 years. If my daughters would have the time during the summer they would go for a week or two.
April 17, 2019 2:02 pm at 2:02 pm in reply to: How much did you pay for your hand shmura matza? #1716827iacisrmmaParticipantujm. We used around 25 lbs last year ……. 8 adults and 1 child at the sedorim……visitng relatives added 9 people during chol hamoed, 9 adults, 1 child for 7th and 8th days and bought 1 lb to shul for neilas hachag. we use thick matzos (6 matzos per pound and hold a kezayis is a 1/4 of the matza. used around 8 lbs just for the first two days before making matza brei’s during chol hamoed.
iacisrmmaParticipantWe try not to eat things we will eat at the seder. So we generally eat salami or hot dogs or onion kugel or mushrooms and onions.
iacisrmmaParticipantThe Shul will not allow presachdigeh urns just to boil water for instant coffee? You might be able to find cut fruit packaged for pesach. The rest sounds correct. Flaums has prepackaged tuna and egg salad KFP, I think there are also packaged whitefish salads and herring. The only other option might be a fleishigs option. I think Glatt Mart’s take out was made pesachdig. Mazel Tov Yhi ROTZON SHEHYIGADLO LTORAH ULCHUPAH ULMAASIM TOVIM VYACHNISO LIVRISO SHEL AVRAHOM AVINU BITO UBIZMANO.
April 16, 2019 7:19 pm at 7:19 pm in reply to: Amazon Automatic Shipment of Chometz Received on Pesach! #1716202iacisrmmaParticipantubiquitin: we can “discuss” anything but if one needs a psak I will always opt for asking a Rov, not the CR.
April 16, 2019 5:42 pm at 5:42 pm in reply to: Amazon Automatic Shipment of Chometz Received on Pesach! #1716159iacisrmmaParticipantdovidbt: this is why I think the question is for a Rov. The sale and the nullifying is only for what you have on erev pesach. You cant sell something you dont own yet.
April 16, 2019 12:32 pm at 12:32 pm in reply to: Amazon Automatic Shipment of Chometz Received on Pesach! #1715534iacisrmmaParticipantthis is a question for a Rov not the CR.
April 16, 2019 12:32 pm at 12:32 pm in reply to: How much did you pay for your hand shmura matza? #1715536iacisrmmaParticipantKRM in boro park was charging $40/lb for Chareidim, other companies were between $22 – $25/lb.
April 16, 2019 12:31 pm at 12:31 pm in reply to: Amazon Automatic Shipment of Chometz Received on Pesach! #1715535iacisrmmaParticipantIf your credit card is charged it may already belong to you.
iacisrmmaParticipantPut small single serve bowls of cheerios in the drawers of your children’s room and say you know there is chametz there.tell them they will be able to throw them into the fire when the chametz is burnt.
iacisrmmaParticipantjoseph: a Talmud chacham who was the son in law of R’ Avigdor Miller
iacisrmmaParticipantDoes this have anything to do with Lot’s wife who turned into salt on pesach?
וַתַּבֵּ֥ט אִשְׁתּ֖וֹ מֵאַֽחֲרָ֑יו וַתְּהִ֖י נְצִ֥יב מֶֽלַח (Bereishis 19:26)
iacisrmmaParticipantYabia omer! I guess you never heard of Rabbi Simcha Sheps Tzatzal or Simcha Bunim of Peshischa Tzatzal or Y’LCT R’ Simcha Bunim Cohen (Rabbi Brog’s son in law).
iacisrmmaParticipantReb G. You wrote “and of course the Chofetz Chaim, R’ Meir Simcha of Dvinsk”. The Chofetz Chaim???? R’ Yisroel Meir Hakohen Kagan? Where is his name Simcha?
iacisrmmaParticipantbe a parent and make a decision.
