AAQ, we cannot show respect with what we don’t have. In English this is the way of respect. If everything is shown in capital letters or small letters, no respect is shown.
When I wrote a teshuva for multiple people separately, I used the RMA’s title designation:
שו”ת הרמ”א סימן א
לקדם רבותינו שבבריסק, כל אחד יתברך ויתרומם לפי מעלת מדרגתו, שלום
I am European where respect was shown and not like in America were everyone is called by there first name or by ‘you’. We as children in Hungary greeted the elderly with kezit csokolom, I kiss your hand.
Calling myself Reb Eliezer is a lesson for all and having great rebbies as the Mattisdorfer Rav ztz’l, father and son, I consider myself a talmid (mei) chacham. Standing up for the elderly (in a bus) is something from the past or opening a door for someone. When there is no respect for the elderly, it is time for Meshiach.Anonymous, with all due respect, stay anonymous as you don’t know what you are talking about. Tiferes Yonasan is from Rav Yonasan Eibshutz, a commentary on the Torah and not a teshuva, which is well respected. He is pointing out that, beyeduah, it was known that the moon is a makom yishuv, inhabitable.
A woman can learn what she is mechuyeves, responsible like candle lighting. The aishes sema ruled that on Yom Tov the brocho should be said before lighting on which the Magen Avraham argues. The Chasam Sofer in Shabbos 24, on the mishna ein sorfim kodeshim be’yom tov. makes two rulings of hers related to each other.
Tosfas in Eruvin (13,2) on the above argument between Beis Shamai and Beis Hilel says that for a tzadik, ashrei lo veashrei ledoro, good for him (being born) and good for his generation. With this I explained why at a wedding we make a blessing yotzer haadam, thanking Hashem for creating a man and the second brocho for a woman. As they are forgiven their sins at the day of their wedding, they become tzadikim, so the above Tosfas applies.
The Midrash says בשעה ששמעו ישראל אנכי ה’ אלקיך אמרו ברוך שלא עשני גוי by kabolas hatorah when the Jews heard, I am your Hashem your G-d they answered, blessed be He who has not created me a goy. Why not say שעשני ישראל in the positive, He made me a Jew? It should have said, I am Hashem your G-d who created you not took you out of Mitzraim? We know the Beis Hilel say that it would have been easier not be created and therefore the Jews hearing that made a negative blessing for not creating me as a goy. The Meharsha explains that being not born would have been easier as they are 365 negative mitzvas being kept by not doing anything by not being born compared to 248 positive mitzvas when born.
The Tiferes Yonasan on the dor haflaga says that they built a tower were air is low to launch a spaceship escaping to the moon.
Avira, you are in great company of Harvard Graduate Poet, e.e. cummings known for being a non-conformist who wrote everything with small letters but why are you greater than Rav Kotler ztz’l with your screen name by using three capital letters?
Avira, capitalizing a Rav’s name is a show of respect. Rav Aaron Kotler ztz’l deserves that respect which I learned in secular (compared to Torah) studies of proper English in the Yeshiva.
One might want to look at this: https://www.theyeshivaworld.com/news/promotions/2011176/yidflicks-one-website-hundreds-of-quality-jewish-videos-for-kids-19.html
The GRA wrote a sefer on Geometry called Ayil Meshulash. Sometimes some secular education helps to understand a mishna.
הזהב קונה את הכסף. The Chachomim said that miderabonon the commodity acquires the currency (meshicha koneh). Gold is the commodity and not the currency. Why? There is a law in economics called Gresham’s Law which says, the bad coins drive out the good coins from circulation. Gold is the good coin which is not spent but hoarded. Silver with less value is spent, so silver is currency and gold is the commodity.See Chabad, Chumash with Rashi
We are not on the level to learn constantly, so we need some relaxation. The mods b’H make sure that no aveirus are made in the CR, so instead of watching movies or TV you use the CR. We discuss Torah as well that can be enjoyed. Politics and YWN can upset CR participants, so by expressing their opinions clears their head for Torah learning.
Avira, I don’t think you expressed yourself well. If someone is really desensitized would be OK like the gemora but the problem is if one thinks he is desensitized but he is not.
I write more Torah in CR than both of you together (Anonymous, Yabia Omer) and why use it when you think it is bittul Torah?
Avira, see the gemora Kesuvas (17,1) where Rav Ache carried the Kallah on his shoulders and danced with her saying, that she is like a beam to him because he was desensitized.
The coffee room provides also Torah.
Brochos (5,1) If one is afflcted with pain he should examine his actions and if not found a reason, than the fault is bittul torah. Isn’t that a good enough reason? They answer that if he could not find a reason, he did not learn enough and there must have been bittul torah.
Fiddler of Roof also teaches that going a little off the derech leads to going off the derech ending with marrying a goy.
Avira, you should not look at movies as you interpret them as a child. Fiddler of the Roof teaches me that if we get the off derech, we get punished. Didn’t they have to leave Anatevka because of pogroms?
Hashem can send him all kinds of wakeup calls but if he does not wake up, it does not help.
A movie called Arranged where a Jewish religious girl befriends an Arab girl and she arranges a marriage for her.
CTLAWYER, I should have said, no president can be elected more than twice, so he does not own the office as AAQ presumed.
Avraham Avinu, as the Midrash Tanchuma indicates that we were rewarded with the mitzva of sukkah by recognizing the provision of Hashem as Avraham did by vehishoanu tachas haetz, rest under the tree. He placed his guests under the tree to realize the need for sun and rain from above to grow it.
coffee addict, can intellectual property be stolen?
coffee addict, we don’t need patent protection as it cannot be stolen but dinei demalchusei dinei who says it can.
China wants to invade Taiwan which is dangerous.
We make a brocho rofei chol bosor umaflie lasos. Rofei also means prevention, as it says that Hashem is our Doctor by ‘not’ laying on us all the illness of Mitzraim. Umaflie laasos, He creates wonders through a vaccine which heals through illness. The makah creates the refuah either through a dead virus or through emulation.
AAQ, in a democratic society, every four years the presidency disbands as the president takes a new oath of office. So the election creates a new entity and the proof is on the undoer of the election and not vice versa. Under no condition can he become a president more than eight years.
I also have many typos which I correct. Any post does not have it but most and the question was asked before by GH and answered.
I have many posts that correct a previous post when edit is not available.The CHOOSID is clear. An election was done and to undo it proof must be given. The one wanting to undo it must provide the proof not vice versa.
Participant, aren’t you belaboring the obvious that I added something to the original post?
No. Not enough fraud to change the outcome.
It says ulai yesh chamishim tzadikim besoch hair, maybe fifty tzadikim exist in the city? The Satmar Rav ztz’l said, I want people who stay and fight in the city and not escape. Hashem helps more one who is part of the group and is not praying on his own.
The eye test reminds me of another joke. A eye doctor asks the patient, can you see the plaque on the wall? He says, what wall?
The dira, Hashem’s residence in this world, is only possible if we unite in it. If someone is a baal gaive, Hashem says, אין אני והוא יכולים לדור בדירה אחת, I and he cannot live together in one residence. He pushes Hashem out by saying, You belong above and not on earth to be masgiach, privide for us. The Rav Abarnel interprets, lo siso es shem, don’t elevate Hashem by saying that He is so great who does not want anything to do with us.

akuperma, I don’t know what you talking about.
18 decimal = 12 hex, 42 decimal = 2A hexThere is a worlwide list in PDF dated May 10, which could have changed, entitled Directory of Shatnez Laboratories Worldwide..
We are born not to gain nehama dekesufa (bread of shame), a free handout, so Hilel with his few words describes a purpose. אם אין אני לי מי אני if I am not for myself to work and improve myself, who is? וכשאני לעצמי מה אני and if I only care for myself, what am I, an animal? אם עכשיו אימתי if not now when? A person does not know how long one lives?
The Chasam Sofer above is mentiined in Mayanei Shel Torah.
AAQ, can you explain how -1 would be indicated and the numbering?
I would start to have him honor shabbos by recognizing the holiness of shabbos over weekdays through food by eating better.
The Rambam paskens in Hilchas Deas (5,11) the order from when to return from a battle, get parnasa, build a house and then get married. Asks the Kesef Mishna there, the Pasuk is mentiioning the planting of a vineyard (parnasa) after marriage? Explains the Chasam Sofer with an ingenious idea, the pasuk is talking about the fourth year (netei revei) which occurred after marriage but the plantation of the vineyard realy was before marriage.

0000 0010 + 0000 0010 = 0000 0100Very nice but why lashan hara to point it out?
It says that at the time of Rebbi Shimon bar Yochai the rainbow was not seen and it does not say that there wasn’t any? Explains the Kli Yakar that they did not look at it figuring that the tzadikim will protect them. According to this we can understand why is it lashan hara to say, I saw a rainbow even though one might want to bring people to do teshuva because he is saying that there are no tzadikim to protect us, so we must rely on Hashem to protect us through his love for us as above.Currently, when they are mature 21 or 22.
They asked the Satmar Rav ztl’l, who should get the maftir, a bar mitzva or a chasan? He answered, whoever is older.
Many have problems with long division but it realy is the number of times the divisor can be subtracted from the dividend and the decimal or fraction of the remainder.
They wanted to hire an accountant, so they ask him this question. One said four and he was told big deal. The one who answered it is how much you want it to be, they hired.
It reminds me of the midas muffler commercial, we make it fit.
