What about breathing, being alive and healthy?
That tops them all!
Popa – that gives myself & my fellow kohanim a reason to drink but not anyone else… 🙂
dafhachaim.com is a great daf yomi tool, they have a intro shiur, daf shiur & five minute review shiur daily, with graph/pics on the side that make everything very clear
I just found this one as well, very good:
Ask your dentist if he has training in using Botox for this issue, it will help relax those muscles and will take care of your problem better than anything else out there,
Yes to solve your problem, why not go shopping Thursday night?
While the timing of the event might not be a proper time (for you), I completely disagree with the notion that it is a lack of menchlichkeit & a lack of seichel on the school’s part. Maybe the school actually used some thought and that was the best time to make it. I would even say to not be so selfish that since its not going to work for you, that you just blame the school for its lack of menchlichkeit and seichel. Why not just call the school/teacher and see why the event is held when it is before jumping to a conclusion like the above. Nowadays, it almost seems easier to just go on a website and complain about something without even taking the time to see what the full story is.
Should we say mothers of kids are lacking seichel as well when they make a party in school for their kids and the fathers can’t come because they are working during the day? Or maybe its a lack when the school makes shacris for the kids at 7:30 when its better for me (as a father) at 7:15 so I can daven with my child.
Also, is it not worth a few unpaid hours to all mothers (and grandmothers) to see some nachas of your kids (gandkids).
Do you feel the same about daf yomi or anything else that you have to learn twice? What about every shabbos, is that hard for you as well?
Please see link below from Torah.org from Rabbi Neustadt who talks about it in his weekly Halacha sheet:
http://torah.org/advanced/weekly-halacha/5757/beshal.html
Hope this helps
set reminders on your cellphone through your calender and/or I think my zmanim has a text message service for this. Another idea is the ou sefirah reminder (do a google search on it).
dd,
sadly I know of such people, its really sad
Two Stories:
1) I know a son of a dentist who told me that a shaddchan once called him and ask for info on how the girls teeth were (know this is true) – this is crazy!! He tells them that not only are they being silly, its also private info between the doc and the patient
2) I know another person who was called as a reference and was asked what they ise on shabbos (paper, plastic or china.
Maybe if people would stop looking into such non-important things and wouild just focus on what is important, this whole “shidduch crisis” would not be around.
Have a great one for you guys. I heard this story from a friend of who it happened to. On the way home from a date, the boy says to the girl, if she doesn’t mind, can they pull over for a few minutes so he can close his eyes. He said he was travelling all day and was really tired and just needed a few minutes. She said no problem, I will wake you up in 5-10 minutes. They both woke up at around 5 or 6 am…
Not sure if they ever got married or not, but that’s a great story to share with your kids.
Reb Moshe brings a few reasons why its assur. One is because its mekalkal the guf. ANother is that it makes you a non-bar daas and if one does any mitzvos at that time, he will not be mekayaim them. Another is being over not honoring your parents because they will have tzar from you doing this. He ends by saying that one needs to stay away from this and befrat people who learn in yeshiva.
This is just a bikitur, if one wants to see the whole thing, look it up or if someone else here wants, they can expound of this and also fix any mistakes, I might have made.
sorry about the spelling errors, forgot to spell check it before I posted, little embarrassed about them, anyway hope you guys enjoy the teshuva
REb Moshe has a teshuva on it, check it out. Here is the mareah makom for it adn I will give you all one guess what he says. Yoreah Deah – Volume Three – Siman 35 (Page 265)
To add on jphone, just clean up after playing with it or just don’t use it on the kitchen table.
opinionatedbubby: there is no answer to your question, ask 100 people and you will most probably get 100 different definitions
no problem my friend
qwertyuiop:
agreed, but as designing mentioned, if the person takes a turn for the worse, you will probably get another message. The problem is that everyone is quick to send these out for when they know someone who gets sick, but we never hear any updates. Is one just supposed to daven for them for the rest of time? There has to be some sort of cut off, for all one knows by the time you or me get the message, the situation could have changed for better or worse.
Also, you mention that you daven for them even if they get better, how do you know they have gotten better? And lets say you get a text that ploni ben ploni needs a refuah, then after two months of davening, he gets better (and you don’t know), now since you don’t know, you assume he is still sick and now you are daveing for a healthy person to have a refuah shelaima, and that is a not a good thing and possibly even an eyin hora.
I asked my Rosh Yehsivah a few years ago when this starting becoming a big thing. He told me if possible try to track down the origin and see about getting updates (this is almost impossible to do, he saud if this is not an option, then you should daven for the choleh for a week and the is enough. Hope this helps
Try being mekabel not touching your cell phone during davening, tried it and it has worked well. THe first few days were hard, but it gets easier and easier as the days go by.
Why is it when it comes to a concert everyone is jumping to wonder what the gedolim say and do as they say, but when it comes to things like the internet, smoking, tv, kosher phones only… people seem to turn a closed ear to what the rabonim have to say?
I agree with all those that say yes to a sports thread and also agree with those who say that a sports thread will not be anymore of a bitul zman than any of the other threads that are posted here.
Not sure about a model of gps that tells us to turn in .2 miles on main street, but the bluetooth is that you hook your phone up to it and then you can have your gps act as your phone and as a wireless speakerphone
shor yoshuv and sushi metsuyan!!
There is a set a shmuzin on a website called http://www.theshmuz.com and look under shmuz sets (I believe) or search the site for shmuzin on tefillah.
still waiting on names please
I will do avos, can we please post names and dates please
“Correct but he’s more prone to do something or to do it even worse if he’s in the wrong environment..” – and this bad enviroment can be anywhere dorm or no dorm
Never understood why people are more afraid of dorm’s than staying in town. If a boy wants to do something, he will find a way to do it, no matter where he is. Its all on who he hangs out with, and bad influences can be both in dorm’s and around in town yeshivos as well.
yoshi,
may he have a complete recovery soon and be blessed with a long life!
call some music companies ad see what happens, like gal paz or mostly music. Maybe that will help you out some. Hatlocha
we waited about six weeks before telling anyone telling anyone including parents, after that, it was 3 months and then the rest of the siblings including grandparents
I really don’t see what the big deal is, if you see the email from YWN and it’s a advertisement from a sponsor, just delete it, how long does that take? That is what I do when I get them, it takes a few seconds to do and then I go on with the rest of my day. And yes deleting it from your phone, also takes a few seconds and I don’t even have to open it and than you won’t waste any kilobytes, like someone said above with that concern about getting these emails.
So YWN keep sending them to me, as I see no problem in you trying to make your source of parnassah greater.
shindy, I mean to say, like I said above after I work out I have more energy and it keeps me up. I was asking if you had any ideas as to how to get rid of that energy quicker, as too then being able to go to sleep sooner…
What exactly does “in style” mean for yeshivah bochurim?
It is a basic white shirt and black pants…
Veimloachshuv, please explain exactly what you are referring to.
Only time I have to excersize is at night, any ideas what else to do to cool off?
