My loss? My loss? Get out of here you rasha!
popa_bar_abbaParticipantAruch HaShulchan OC 168:30
Isn’t that is a case of ?????? ???, which the shulchan aruch distinguishes that from ?????? ???? Wraps are unquestionably made with ?????? ???.
popa_bar_abbaParticipanthello:
Do you know what a source for a concept that a real dough which is baked in a normal manner, should need to have a toar lechem? I don’t see that in the MB.
popa_bar_abbaParticipanta man whos active in nk was in a train station and suddenly a guy starteed screaming at him hey you filthy zionist murderer etc so this man went over to him and told him hey im actually on the way back from some pro palestine conference and he told him about nk well the guy was dead impressed and said sorry i didnt ralize that some jews are also against those bloody zionists and he shook hands and was so nice after.
So basically, this guy figured out a way to save himself in antisemitic situations, by pledging allegiance to the anti semites.
This has happened before. In WWII, we called them the Judenrat.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantand they do NOT love the arabs its just an outward show to calm the arabs down, and they have succeeded on a big scale i could tell u lots of stories if you want.
Please do. Tell us all those stories.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantYou will not need to change your diet or take additional medicines.
But Caracas Chick was told she needs to eat healthy, make sure to drink properly, and exercise.
That may or may not be a change for some people.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantyungerman:
I do wash on a slice of pizza, and I don’t know what that has to do with a wrap.
I generally consider the issue of pizza to be whether cheese and sauce can make pas into pas kisnin, which the beur halacha says it cannot unless it is similar to hors d’oeuvres (meaning, made in small pieces for snacking purposes.)
One poster here said the issue by wraps is whether there is a toar lechem. I haven’t looked at that in a while. Perhaps you could say the same thing for pizza, but that I have never heard of, and then you would not wash even on more than a slice.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantIf a drop of milk falls into a pot of meat and there is 60 times more meat than the drop then the food is mutar.
Not so fast. Where did it fall?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantexcept for making sure I drink plenty I have not had to make any changes, I exercise regularly and eat healthy,
Oh. I do not exercise regularly, and I do not eat healthy, and I sometimes forget to drink all day (except beer of course).
In fact, I just made myself a grilled cheese, which I made properly on a pan with plenty of margarine. There was no butter available.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI have never heard a good reason why it would not be hamotzi (assuming soft wrap, the only type I’m familiar with).
I don’t know of anyone who says it is mezonos, but I can’t guarantee there isn’t anyone.
Probably the same people who use the brooklyn eruv. (See, any thread can be made into a fun thread.)
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI am also just talking about frum jews. I never said other people shouldn’t get the Hep B vaccine.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantDo you really think 1 case of hepatitis is worth $75,000,000 to prevent?
Or even $15,000,000?
Suppose there was a cure for hepatitis that cost 15,000,000 per dose. Would you say it should be covered by health insurance? Would you pay for it out of pocket if you had the money?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantpopa: after reading all the responses, do you still feel that one cannot do the same sports/excersizes as before the donation?
This has nothing to do with how I feel. This is simply the fact. Once you donate a kidney, you are not supposed to do any contact sports, and there are all sorts of other lifestyle changes as well. Ask your doctor.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantSorry, a 1 in 200,000 chance (if you ever even get a transfusion) is not even worth the 75 bucks a vaccine costs.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI will drink beer. Lots of beer.
It is a chumra to only drink things which don’t require a hechsher. Thus, I only drink beer and whiskey.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantOk, perfect.
And what percentage of the population gets a blood transfusion?
If it is half, then we have the same percentage.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantHealth:
What are the numbers for chicken pox?
What percentage of the population who does not have the vaccine has severe problems from chicken pox?
What percentage of the people who get the vaccine have severe reactions to it?
Until we answer those questions, isn’t this all just speculation?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantAries: I’m not sure why you addressed your comments to me. There may be people who feel the way you characterize, but that wasn’t what I was talking about.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI don’t see how that has to do with what I am saying.
They are guilty of two things:
1. Making large prominent mistakes, and publishing buried retractions.
2. Failing to do proper research to find out anything about the stories they run.
What does that have to do with perspectives?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantSure, I didn’t accuse them of doing anything illegal.
I accused them of having no regard for the truth. And I stand by that.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI will be with 3 or 4 other people. One of them is frum.
I wasn’t in the kollel tonight, but I’m eating EJ’s pizza right now. And drinking beer from milwaukee (no, not miller. Lakefront.).
popa_bar_abbaParticipantOh yes, the Times is very reliable.
ARE YOU BLAZES KIDDING?
They don’t even make an attempt to get stories correct, the entire system is about sensationalism. They exist to sell papers, and they were pretty good at that until the internet came.
Any time there is a story about the frum community, they completely botch it. When it is about the Hispanic community, we just don’t know.
I recall one time when R’ Ovadia Yosef was in the hospital, the papers published a picture of ultra-orthodox jews praying outside the hospital towards his window. Or maybe saying kiddush levana?
Did they bother to find out? They don’t care.
And let’s recall a little story we knew about. Where they portrayed the jewish victim of an arab mob, to be an arab victim of Israeli police!
Did they publish a retraction? I don’t recall, but I assure you it didn’t have the same prominence.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI know someone who is a nurse, and she works all night. Maybe we should make her a mod so we could have posting at night.
September 21, 2011 11:46 pm at 11:46 pm in reply to: I hope no one has ever experienced these, but if you did, maybe you can help #813752popa_bar_abbaParticipantCause- Unknown
Symptoms- red, itchy, pus, I don’t know, look on Wikipedia.
Treatment- eye drops
lasting impacts- none
popa_bar_abbaParticipantWas skiaddict always a troll?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI didn’t pick it. The people who are taking me for dinner picked it. They probably picked it because it is the only place in chicago to take someone on business, besides for metroKlub.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantYou are correct. Sorry, I hadn’t read the entire post.
September 21, 2011 8:42 pm at 8:42 pm in reply to: I hope no one has ever experienced these, but if you did, maybe you can help #813747popa_bar_abbaParticipantI think it is pretty common also.
You can ask whatever you want. I don’t promise to tell the truth. (always might though)
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI will be at shallots tomorrow night at 7.
What should I get?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI know this Aishis Chayal (Syag)who just went through an unbelievably difficult time in many respects and just got up from Shiva a few weeks ago. im sure everyone means well but this is not the time or place for an argument with her, even if well intended…Moderator.
September 21, 2011 7:43 pm at 7:43 pm in reply to: I hope no one has ever experienced these, but if you did, maybe you can help #813744popa_bar_abbaParticipantI have had conjunctivitis several times.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantCaracas: I am familiar with it. You should not be ice skating, and I am sure your doctor would advise you not to.
syag: I am not trying to be funny. The medical community is not on the same page as the donation advocates.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantHealth: You must know the numbers.
What percentage of people suffer severe side effects from the Hepatitis B vaccine?
What percentage of people who are not vaccinated, in the US, and do not engage in risk factors, get Hep B from blood transfusions?
I know it is uncommon to die from vaccines. But it happens all the time. There are 300m people in this country.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantThat is not the consensus of the medical community. If you donate a kidney, you need to make substantial lifestyle changes, such as no more contact sports or potential high impact sports.
You are confusing the medical community at large, with the kidney donation propaganda.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantTo make myself more identifiable, I will wear a black fedora hat.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantBais Ushy is the best shtiebel in Chicago.
It has a real name (Khal Ohr Yissochor Chodrov), but it often called bais ushy after the founder.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantmidwesterner, let’s make a big “welcome back popa” sign to hang on the kollel building, and have your wife bake a cake, walk in and say “this is for papa! where is popa?” who would refuse cake?
That’s it. I’m going to ushy
popa_bar_abbaParticipantEvery shul in chicago should call up “popa bar abba” for shlishi this shabbos.
????? ???? I’m not a kohen?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI am coming to Chicago tomorrow night, and I will stay for shabbos again.
I don’t know where I will daven though.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantHuh? Why does my making sense out of something that bothers you mean I am making it into a commodity?
If doctors charge money for kidney transplants, does that make life a commodity?
Look, there is no malicious intent on anybody’s part here, and it has nothing to do with relative valuations of men and women. It is just about reality.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantSo is this thread from you or from her?
popa_bar_abbaParticipanti also used to live in hollywood park, but i, too, am not a telsher. perhaps gefen is telling the truth.
Were you gefen’s neighbor? Maybe very close neighbor? Maybe same house?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantBut the fact that men should do something while women shouldn’t, or women should do something while men shouldn’t, to me it is sexist.
Define further please. Do you mean even if there is a good reason which makes sense?
For example, suppose there are separate bathrooms for men and women, does that bother you?
Suppose that girls in Orthodox communities have shidduch resumes because of the laws of supply and demand, but boys don’t, does that bother you?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantHow about the young men having resume’s? Only the girls have resumes.
I would happily write up a resume if anyone would have ever requested it. Nobody did.
So am I sexist?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantAnything which is gender specific is sexist? Whose koolaid have you been drinking?
actually popa generally does not have his opinions. he just likes to have fun.
Hmmm.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI find it offensive and sexist, unless the guys are required to do so as well.
I don’t see how it would make you happier if guys also did it. Your problem isn’t that it is sexist, your problem is that it is offensive.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantIf she is fat, she should stand next to a pillar and half hide behind it.
Alternatively, you can do an angle shot.
Or wear stripes?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantEither way, what is the point of breaking it?
If the kiddushin was not chal yet, they could just refuse it.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI heard i believe from R’ Wallerstein that the luchos were like the kiddushin (i.e. ring) and if Mmoshe Rabbenu didnt break the luchos we would have so to speak been married with Hashem and committed adultery by sinning with the egel so it was a favor Moshe Rabenu did for us.
Well, wasn’t Moshe the shliach kabbala? So isn’t the kiddushin chal when he gets it?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantTexting is good. Since people began texting, it has cut down on the noise level in shuls, as nobody is talking on the phone.
Presumably, this is because texting is more efficient and they are able to finish their business before davening.
