Do escalator motors use more electricity if more people are on it?
Some advice:
Buy a house before your kids start school
I can’t see why it would be assur, but have no idea.
Starbucks is not the end-all.
But comparing instant-coffee to brewed, is ridiculous.
Cool!
There’s a famous story where a kid who was not old enough went to donate blood and lied that he was old enough, and then lied again that he weighed enough, and then lied again that his iron level was high enough, and then lied again that his blood pressure was correct enough, and he gave the blood, and it saved someone’s life.
So you see there’s hashgacha pratis.
How does people not travelling affect blood supplies?
Anyhow, even if Marc Shapiro was right, the Ran on Sanhedrin is still a Rishon.
It’s more than that. Even if Marc Shapiro is right, what he really means is that the ran is not the person who was called rabeinu nissim.
The ran is whomever wrote the peirush that we call the ran. It doesn’t really matter if he is the same rishon as rabbeinu nissim or another rishon, and it doesn’t matter if his name was nissim or charlie. It matters that he wrote the ran.
Well, if Prof. Marc Shapiro has decided something, then it’s definitely true.
Daas torah, you know.
There are frum musicians whose audience isn’t frum, and I wouldn’t call their music “Jewish music”.
Example?
When people refer to goyish music vs. Jewish music, they don’t put in in the latter category just because the artist’s mother was Jewish.
No, usually they refer to whether the artist was frum.
It’s a pretty crude metric for whatever the real distinction being attempted is. It works ok for its purpose, but there’s nothing wrong with acknowledging that it’s inherently a bit stupid.
Coffee, besides for the avos? Are they not good enough?
Anyway, statistically, you’re descended from every ashkenazi rishon, and every amorah, tanna, etc.
You assumed that because you’re so completely steeped in goyish culture.

MODS! WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?

You agree, that’s why you changed the topic.

Considering that they’re not married and shouldn’t be looking for more reasons to see each other, and considering the types of halachos they will be learning, the answer should be, and usually is, “no”.
I don’t agree with that at all.
I think they should spend a lot of time with each other, and speak very often.
I don’t really think they should learn together though. v’es vahev b’sufah.
Actually France has made it clear that that will not be the case unless the UK does what Norway does and adheres to EU rulings on a host of issues — while having no influence into those rulings. Basically, if the UK leaves, it has two choices:
That’s just being petty though. Of course they’ll have full trade, because it’s mutually beneficial.
The UK is not Norway.

No, we’re actually all law students, see e.g. http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/law-school-graduation-what-are-you-all-doing-next-year
DY:
If the ch’shash is that it is other kosher milk, that doesn’t seem like such a serious ch’shash.
Thanks midwest!
Someone learned over sheuvous
There’s maybe a pri megadim I recall about being mevatel heter l’chatchila.
I can’t recall what it says, but I think it was discussing if you then want to make that stuff actually fleishig.
I can live with that too. Is it even assur l’chatchila?
By the time it’s in your coffee it’s definitely batul b’shishim.
So the chsh’ash is that someone will think it’s pareve, and have a coffee with batul bshishim dairy while he’s fleishig.
I can live with htat.
What DY said.
Isn’t that the whole meaning of CY?
The hundreds of Milchig (Dairy) coffee creamers they certify as Kosher. In accordance with some obscure government regulation, these are mislabeled as “NON-DAIRY”; an invitation to use them during a Fleishig (Meat) meal.
Are they really milchig?
Just read the ingredients.
They use OU-D instead of DE figuring its better if people mistakenly think it is full fledged dairy instead of just made on dairy equipment, instead of confusing so many people.
Similarly, they think it’s better if people mistakenly think something actually dairy is pareve rather than know it is dairy and be confused.
See http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/ou-kashrus-is-not-reliable
And considering how little they cared when the mislabeled something pareve that was actually milchigs…

The same anti-religious laws regarding public accommodations apply.
