My last post was a summary of what (LU + CR) have been saying
Citation (LU et al)
LightbriteParticipantFYI: The bruise started by my knee and now elongated closer to my ankle. Turns out that this is normal.
She said that as the body absorbs the blood, the cells shift down because of gravity.
She’s seen patients who had a bruise on their forehead, and eventually the blood went down their entire face. And a bruise on the chest going down to the leg.
Mine didn’t go down that far visibly because she suspects that the impact broke blood vessels deeper and underneath the fascia.
However, if the impact hit more superficial vessels, then the bruising could have been visible up to my toes. She’s even seen patients with PURPLE TOES that came from leg injuries.
LU: That’s another way to get a PURPLE TOE <3
Thanks all 🙂
LightbriteParticipantIt’s a BIG hematoma!
Had I come in four months ago, she would have sent me to a surgeon to see if they could drain the blood.
One cool thing is that it didn’t so much when it first happened to me because I had a lot of stress and other stuff going on in my life at the time. Hence, I put off going to the doctor to address the other circumstances. Interesting stuff imho.
She submitted a request for an MRI ~ Approval TBD.
LightbriteParticipantBetter to have a source in print than a horse with hearhay
LightbriteParticipantPlus here is the second portion of Rabbi Freeman’s support:
Shortly after the first moon landing, the Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, of blessed memory, pointed out6 that there is support in Torah for the notion that life exists on other planets. Furthermore, we can know something about that life through deduction from what the Torah tells us. Here is his argument:
<ZAP>
LightbriteParticipantmisteryudi: Pish posh.
Please see Rabbi Tzvi Freeman from Chabad’s explanation:
LightbriteParticipantWow so easy breezy and beautiful

2) FIND ONE. Ask you LOR. Call. Show up. Talk. Think. Plan with this person that you trust and who is a good guide for your life.
3) FOCUS on YOURSELF first.
4) DO #1.
LightbriteParticipantUPDATE from USPS Official
Do NOT put a zip code when sending mail to Israel from the US.
It could get lost that way, G-d forbid.
Thanks for the posters who gave me the headsup.
Just asked the USPS customer service representative who confirmed that one should omit Israeli zip codes.
Thanks 🙂
Please return to your regular programming
LightbriteParticipant4yo thread
Hashem is so good! I asked a question about Cholov Yisroel in a Cholov Stam kitchen. It hasn’t even posted yet.
Then I find the answer here.
Yays 🙂
LightbriteParticipantNC: Just to clarify please, isn’t a big thing about OO is that it is not with the majority [Chazal majority, not laypeople]?
Same goes for reform, conservative, etc?
They went against the majority of what Chazal and current Jewish scholars and leaders.
So that in itself poses a problem. Even if there were reasons why something should be or whatever, if it’s a fringe then it’s unaccepted. Thus it is against Torah?
February 23, 2017 11:32 am at 11:32 am in reply to: marrying a good boy who might not be good enough for you #1220645LightbriteParticipantB “if u need to- tell him your seeing someone else (i believe it is permitted to lie i can get you sources in halachah…)”
Why so he convince her to cheat on her bf/fiance/husband?
Unless frum guys have mastered their YH completely, a bochur can spin a girl’s “I’m seeing someone else” to hear “I like you but I am burdened by my current SO and if only I wasn’t with him because I am so into you…”
That’s a no thank you. She doesn’t need a guy around thinking that she’s smitten when she isn’t.
February 23, 2017 11:31 am at 11:31 am in reply to: marrying a good boy who might not be good enough for you #1220644LightbriteParticipantRebshidduch: The following was dangerous advice and do not listen to it…
A “tell him when you see a change you will reconsider (even if you wont).”
Ha. Yea right. So he can fake being a learner for her? She isn’t interested and that needs to be 100% clear.
LightbriteParticipantLU: Yepp you are not the only one who got clipped 🙂
shebbesonian: Isn’t the kitchen also a kashrut concern?
Even if someone cannot get too much wrong in baking, especially pareve, I thought that sometimes it is trusting the kitchen that poses problems.
Question please:
If someone who doesn’t keep Cholov Yisroel on a daily basis AND only bakes Cholov Yisroel Purim treats, is it still considered Cholov Yisroel if the kitchen is Cholov Stam?
Thank you
LightbriteParticipantShopping613: Lol 🙂
LightbriteParticipantIs it out obligation to teach and bring Torah on new planets if only people who aren’t Jewish initially live there?

Change it?
Get an explanatory subtitle?
LightbriteParticipantThis is hilarious:)
LightbriteParticipantBecause the boy doesn’t have a kippa, for one thing.
Then they made him play in a band and he’s supposed to be hanging out with the girls.
LightbriteParticipantOh thank you Neville Chaimberlin!
Wow… just realized that the title was self-explanatory but I guess I didn’t see the forest because I was confused about the trees. Or something like that.
LightbriteParticipantOH!!! Wow. Nope. I was wrong.
It’s a doll of a boy meant for the same girl audience as their girl dolls.
Allegedly American Girl is branching out and offering more diverse doll options for their consumers.
LightbriteParticipantI thought that it was a doll for boys.
But brb I want to go look that up again.

February 23, 2017 12:52 am at 12:52 am in reply to: Why are jewish chat rooms considered appropriate #1218553LightbriteParticipantYay!!! LU how did you get the word count in your post?
Do I need to write them up in Microsoft Office then cut & paste here?
February 23, 2017 12:46 am at 12:46 am in reply to: not getting your parents involved in shidduchim #1217625LightbriteParticipantrebshidduch: My rabbi is finding a shadchan for you in Lakewood.
You don’t have to call the shadchan if you don’t want. I don’t even have the contact info yet. He’s still asking rabbis he knows for a reputable one in Lakewood who can help you.
Anyway… will let you know.
WinnieThePooh: Thanks for explaining 🙂
February 22, 2017 11:54 pm at 11:54 pm in reply to: marrying a good boy who might not be good enough for you #1220609LightbriteParticipantI’m sorry it is taking time. I know.
What’s beautiful about you is that you’re open-minded and see potential in others.
That’s wonderful.
You don’t marry potential though. That’s one thing I learned. If anyone wants to counter me then please do.
I also want to learn more from the CR Yentas ?
February 22, 2017 11:53 pm at 11:53 pm in reply to: marrying a good boy who might not be good enough for you #1220608LightbriteParticipantIt is not your job to make him into a rabbi or something else.
It is your job to find a life partner who will share your goals and values. He is nm his own person too. You want someone who wants what you want to begin with. Imho. It doesn’t guarantee anything but you start with a foundation.
Btw I am also in shidduchim and have been learning this along the way. I was in a very unpleasant situation where I was going to change for the guy and it was too much pressure and it felt like drowning. Imho give that guy a chance to find his beshert. Give yourself the gift of finding yours.
February 22, 2017 11:47 pm at 11:47 pm in reply to: marrying a good boy who might not be good enough for you #1220607LightbriteParticipantDon’t do it rebshidduch.
You cannot make him into someone else.
There are many beautiful stories about women fixing up their men to become Torah scholars. They are meant to teach lessons but not meant to say that any guy will blossom into a Talmud Chacham so long as the right girl supports him.
Sorry for telling you so directly. I am not right and don’t know.
But what I hear from you is the attempt to bring matters into your own hands and find yourself a husband. So your friends brother or brothers friend isn’t the right age. So that didn’t work. Now this guy.
I need to press send here before the Mods clip it.
February 22, 2017 11:37 pm at 11:37 pm in reply to: marrying a good boy who might not be good enough for you #1220606LightbriteParticipantI was one of those posters a few months back
LightbriteParticipantAwesome work LU!!! ~ Thanks for ending that thread 🙂
May’ya achooz
LightbriteParticipantOkay thank you. The end here. Thanks 🙂
LightbriteParticipantStill though… didn’t they have some panel and discussion where at least one rabbi (death penalty needs more than 2 but other cases need a greater majority… and this is Torah and now some hold higher standards) had ideas that somewhat differed?
LightbriteParticipantOkay this was in a death sentence thing.
If my LOR read this he would probably be like “whoa that’s not what I said…”
But I wonder if there is a relation here.
A lifetime sentence saying that women cannot live this way. What if this is closer to that then crabcakes?
February 22, 2017 6:16 pm at 6:16 pm in reply to: Why are jewish chat rooms considered appropriate #1218546LightbriteParticipantThen again, look it could have not had to do with us at all.
Shopping613 has a good point that this is not a “chat room” too 🙂
See DifferenceBetween:
Summary: Difference Between Chat Rooms and Forums is that A chat room is a location on an Internet server that permits users to chat with each other. While Bulletin board(BB or Bboard), discussion forum, discussion board, and forum is a discussion area where user share their thoughts with each other about any topic.
February 22, 2017 6:14 pm at 6:14 pm in reply to: Why are jewish chat rooms considered appropriate #1218545LightbriteParticipantDY really?
I also thought that this was a real question. If the answer was suitable halachically, then maybe the OP would feel comfortable posting.
Maybe the OP wanted to post but didn’t know how it was okay, so wanted to hear from posters here.
Also, maybe the OP did not feel comfortable asking a LOR directly.
LightbriteParticipantThanks for sharing golfer ~ Such sweet memories 🙂
Reminds me of my grandmother, may her memory be a blessing, who baked the most delicious cookies that I was always trying to recreate on my own.
I’ve never seen the themes in person. The experience of Purim is changing.
Maybe commercialization of kashrus and the bustle of today’s life means that some MM won’t be eaten.
Still you also shared an interesting observation. Costumes, for one thing, are less expensive and maybe easier to come by, since Purim costumes go on sale November 1st (quote from an anonymous genius poster). Though one of the biggest things here imho is that Jews are dressing up their children before Purim and publicly driving around or walking around giving MM, when the rest of nonJewish society is going about their daily lives.
It’s amazingly beautiful and a blessing that we can be Jewish in the streets today, at least for the most part thank G-d <3
Although our great great great great grandparents of ble

Syag Lchochma: Awww omgosh!!! <3
LightbriteParticipantMeno I read it. You still have 14 or 13 minutes left to delete it and our lips are sealed.
February 22, 2017 5:31 pm at 5:31 pm in reply to: Have You Ever Told Someone He/She is Jewish? #1217727LightbriteParticipantAlso there is a book on this topic called Suddenly Jewish by Barbara Kessel
According to Aish, Kessel writes mainly on these three populations of people who discovered that they are Jewish:
1) “[D]escendants of crypto-Jews, Sephardic in origin and living mainly in the southwestern United States”
2) “[H]idden Jewish children in the Holocaust who were raised as non-Jews by adoptive and foster families”
3) “[C]hildren of Holocaust survivors who were never told by their parents of their Jewish ancestry”
February 22, 2017 5:24 pm at 5:24 pm in reply to: Have You Ever Told Someone He/She is Jewish? #1217726LightbriteParticipantblubluh, here’s another situation from Chabad’s Ask the Rabbi:
LightbriteParticipantPeople are misunderstanding the yawn when they take it personally. And/or may be judging the person.
I guess it doesn’t help when people fake-yawn to mock someone who is talking.
A real yawn is different than a fake yawn.
LightbriteParticipantMeno: Have you ever had anyone ask you if you liked the homebaked good that you tossed out?
What’s the halacha here?
