mrs. KatzMemberNo help anyone?
Golders greener i agree to the apartmant business being crazy in general, but i think that this particular family actually owns enough apartments in both sanhedria nad tzefas, so i wouldn’t worry about them.
November 13, 2012 12:08 am at 12:08 am in reply to: Why do you think the Hurricane Sandy came? #906933mrs. KatzMemberBTW, I did write another thread, where i pointed out the interesting thing of the hurricane coming on the yohrtzeit of the Chazoin Ish.

The Germans announced their intentions by the late 1930’s, however no one took them seriously. By 1940 Auschwitz hadn’t been built yet, In fact the entire “final solution” was only introduced at the beggining of 1941. Please remember, even yidden in occupied Hungary failed to beleive the stories they heard until it was too late for most of them.
Nonetheless there is no question that both Britain and the US could have done a lot more duringthe war, both in terms of immigration, and in terms of ruining the german plans.

R’ Mattisyohu Salomon has been known toexpress “Voss hoben zei oifgetohn az zei gerattevet alle yaldei tehran, und zei shpeiter upgeshmad?” – What was the purpose of saving the yaldei tehran and then forcing them into non religious kibbutzim.

mrs. KatzMemberWhen I married Mr. Right, I didn’t realise that his first name was Always.
mrs. KatzMemberThe minhag in Belz was to amke havdala on a bare table – without even a plate under the becher, since the overflowing wine symblizes brocho, it was thought best that it overflow onto the table.
The present belzer rebbe stopped this minhag, but many talmidim of the previous rebbe do do it, as does the rebbe of Belz-Machnovka
November 11, 2012 12:01 pm at 12:01 pm in reply to: Two Things to Remember Before You Order Your Palestinian Passport #906813mrs. KatzMemberAlthough i am not out to defend the british, i would like to point out a couple of things.
a) the british never actually SANK any ships of refugees, directly killing yidden. they turned numerous ships back, which eventually sank, and thereby caused many deaths, but they never actually sank any ships.
b) the british made the mistake of appointing a yiddishe high commisioner, Sir herbert Samuel, for eretz yisroel. In an attempt to prove his lack of bias,he leaned heavily towards the arab side.
c) During WWII the brittish allowed numerous refugees into eretz yisroel, by turning a blind eye to numerous ships, on both an indivual and and governmental level, saving numerous lives. In the entire period, the us only once turned a blind eye, during 1938, on intervention of morgenthau.
d) The brittish allowed unlimited refugees into England during the entire war, [with esception of enemy citizens], and was actually one of the very few safe havens – although many failed to take advantage.
e) The british prime minister immediately befre the war was a well known coward, called neville chamberlain. Since he was that after the british would leave e”y the arabs would win any war, he therefore leaned towards the arab side in terms of immigration.
f) The british were attacked many times by the Etzel and Lechi groups, (and retaliated), this obviously did nothing to help the british – israeli relationship.
g) over 75% of the land mass britian had in the mid east was given directly into arab hands some way or another, including much of present day jordan, and icluding the sinai/suez peninsula, only conceded by antony eden to Egypt in 1956.
h) any democratically elected changing government will renege on promises mada under previous governments – no different than Obama reneged on promises made by previous presidents, to transfer the embassy top jerusalem.
i) ABOVE ALL, i highly doubt that the british are interested in returning to eretz yisroel – especailly as they will soon find themselves overrun by the few muslims who are not yet in france.
November 8, 2012 12:37 pm at 12:37 pm in reply to: Why Do You Think Bnos Obama Yerushalayim Was Hit by Hurricane? #1038688mrs. KatzMemberOne of the first things i would look for in a mehcanech is honesty, so i do not think that b’nois obama qualifies.
mrs. KatzMemberI was just wondering, in another thread you gave us all the gory details of how you may fit a man shoes, so usrely you’re problem is touching your uncles, not your nieces.
mrs. KatzMember???? ??? ???? ????
mrs. KatzMemberIn terms of cousins marrying, what do you guys say to the following.
The oldest daughter of the tchernobler rebbe of benei berak, r’ nochum twersky, is married to his younger brother – i.e. her uncle. His second daughter is married to his nephew, i.e. her first cousin. These two sisters were then meshadech!!!! The chosson and kallah were first cousins, as were three of the parents!!!
The daughter of the imrei chayim of vitznitz, brocho z”l, was married to R’ moishe ernster. Their son, r’ mendel, married a daughter of the yeshuois moishe – his first cousin, while his son married a daughter of r’ yisroel – the present vizhnitzer rebbe. R’ yisroel was also meshadech with another bil, and a uncle!!!
mrs. KatzMemberMind you, I would consider their 17 year age gap more disturbing than their being related.
Posted 1 day ago
I would not advise to be disturbed by an odom godoil. Koirach was also “disturbed” and it didn’t take him too far.
October 31, 2012 11:33 am at 11:33 am in reply to: AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO IS BOTHERED BY THIS? #908327mrs. KatzMemberDoes the mishpacha count as shabbos lunch, or the shoes?
mrs. KatzMemberI know a guy called yosef who learnt in Brisk – by haGaon R’ Dovid Soloveitchik, and every time he said his name was yosef r’ Dovid said voss? YAYsaf.
They say that R’ Ovadia Yosef once met r’ dovid, and asked him if he says “yismach yisroel be’aisov!!!”
mrs. KatzMemberVenahapoich – i am not sure how shoes fit in, but theyprobably do not shabbos shoes, since in e”y noone wears separate shoes on shabbos. However thay probably buy their kids apartments, which are far more expensive.
mrs. KatzMemberThanks for all your help guys. this is way better than googling!!!
I wanted to know about their schools, someone told me that since they have very few of their own chassidim, their school attracts a lot of kids from “klal chassidi” backgrounds – i.e. not belz ger vitnitz etc…
Is it true that a lot of “chutznikim” send their chidlren there?
mrs. KatzMemberMaybe irene was connected to the gerrers refusal to vote for R’ meir Porush in the last mayoral election in e”y, and this is for the lack of achdus displayed by netzach hatoira and the gerrers refusing to recognise the rotation agreement.
mrs. KatzMemberYbrooklyn teacher and science program, thanks for the encouragement.
SSA, thanks for all yuor brilliant ideas – as they say after you.
(BTW my children regularly wonder outdoors in their socks, so i’m not sure if it would help to install concrete floors, but it is an original idea all the same.
OOmis, no problem, i am just emailing my mil to jpin this discussion.
mrs. KatzMemberi do not know if all these gareshead stories are true, but i would far more worried about what happens to a child who forgets to bring his sneakers to school than wearing weekday shoes on shabbos.
mrs. KatzMemberA neighbor’s child returned home today from school, hysterical and, you guessed it, unshod.
The story? When the school secretary, an eldery woman, arrived in the school that morning she tripped over a stair, and her shoe fell off. the child promptly kicked it across the yard.
What do you guys say? It’s a true story.
October 23, 2012 1:11 pm at 1:11 pm in reply to: Ball tshuva girl who's father is not jewish #900591mrs. KatzMemberWhy can’t hse marry a koihen?
mrs. KatzMemberOonmis, there is a big difference between paying rent – i.e. helping out in a situation that the children chose, and buying our kids things, that the parents do not want them to have.
Imagine a parent saying i will pay your rent but only if you live in a particular place? i will pay tuition but only in a certain school. i accept that this is not quite the same, but any parent who decides things for their grandchildren is overstepping her boundaries.
mrs. KatzMemberZD, you are 100% right, there was s post recently on YWN that the belzer rebbe told his chassidim to wear white socks on choil hamoied
mrs. KatzMemberI;m sure all you guys are amazing bubby’s and judge every situation really well, but i feel that in a general case, a mil should limit herself to neutral gifts – nosh toys etc…, and not give gifts like paying for summer camp or buying shabbos shoes, which are the parents right to decide on.
mrs. KatzMemberIf i have it right, in the last municipial elections, the Gerrer chassidim brought mr. nir barkat to power as mayor, and he promised to install a mizrachi Rabbi in the job, rather than somebody chareidi who diametrically opposes the state.
Since that election was a serious fight between R’ porush and the Gerrers, and since barkat actually kept many of his promises, this is a BIG ISSUE.
the rabbi does not too much power, but the mayor does.
mrs. KatzMemberGoldersgreener anyone who can rise above his personal family and accept that his child’s spouse is not to blame is truly an odom godoil.
mrs. KatzMemberIs this gateshead business real?
mrs. KatzMemberwelcome from me too, i wish you many happy healthy years of posting on YWN, and much hatzlocho in whatever you do, and finding your perfect mate etc…
i would not advise anyone to hide their mother in law’s shoes, she would probably never leave your house.
mrs. KatzMemberYes, the children run there in their socks in the middle of fitting to write posts. 🙂
mrs. KatzMemberI am reluctant to write about any other moissod’s way of disciplining, but I think that one has to realise that every case is different. If a child does not accept authority on a regular basis, then it is necassary to have a punishment that all the children will remember for a long time, in order to keep discipline.
Although i have never used this particular punishment i think that some more extreme measures are necassary to ensure that the clas/camp run smoothly, and authority is accepted.
mrs. KatzMemberA poshute yid, I like your idea, but i am not sure it will help, my siblings in e”y buy their children cheap black sneakers for teh winter and evencheaper black sandals for the summer and they wear them for Shabbos and weekday, anyway my MIL has never said a word to them [at least as far as i know]
Purim mashgaich, i do not your mishna berura, and i feel that children, especailly boys who weasr basically the same things all the time, should have nicer shoes for shabbos, but there was a post that if ound on here which seems to say that most poskim do not hold shoes fall under the category of clothes for kibud shabbos.
mrs. KatzMemberIf you still remeber what they did to you in first grade, it must have traumatized youy pretty badly.
mrs. KatzMemberFor everyone’s information,
My parents in law do not support me.
However, we both have teenage boys, and she has realy brought up a pack of boys, so hse loves giving opinions. I have children all the way down to six months ka”h
mrs. KatzMemberI think that the kallah’s family pick the shtraimel, so matbe it depends on her hair color.
mrs. KatzMemberRomney
mrs. KatzMemberIt’s not just a question of shoes, she generally feels that i davote to much time attention and money to appearances rather than substance.
mrs. KatzMemberthanks for all the support everyone.
I was just wondering if anyone actually knows any source for this minhag aveilim business. Also perhaps today is different because it has become more normal?
Also, if i decide to encourage my children to wear their shoes around the house, does anyone have any practical ideas how to do it?
BTW, why is it so clear to everyone that kibud eim includes things that no relevance to her? My husband’s Rov told him thatkibud Eim only includes things that add to her respect or comfort.
Also, are there any halachic sources for using real plates?
mrs. KatzMemberSorry to get involved moishy s, but i think if you offer your mother that for two weeks you will not do anything crazy in school, she might just agree to buy you about six pairs of shabbos shoes.
