better question: did Shakespeare ever meet a Jew? IIRC Jews were banned from England at the time he wrote his plays

if you want a toy, get the iphone.

if you need a business tool, get the BB

if you want 1/2 n 1/2, get a droid

ewe. flashback to 9th grade english class where we had to read JC.

my mother can look at a ring on a kallah’s hand or other jewelry from that distance and can tell if its real or fake. if she is holding a necklace or bracelet she can tell by the weight of it if its real or not. my father too. doesnt take a microscope. (for diamond clarity/type you will need a jeweler’s loop)

a lay person will usually not be able to tell the difference.

BIG price difference between real and fake. i dont know specific differences though, sorry. i can afford fake on my budget. real, not so much :). the price of gold and silver have gone up tremendously in the last 5 years. the ring i got 5 years ago which cost X$ is alot more than X$ today.

if you are buying peals, a good set of costume peals will look as good or exactly like real pearls. semi precious stones are also a little better priced than diamonds and such.

if you need to buy someone a gift, buy what you can afford. don’t spend outside what you have (my 2 cents. are you looking to buy someone a gift?)

I had it done in HS also. And that was the first and last time I had I had such an experience. The person doing it pricked me tons till they found a vein. I was crying cuz it was painful. In the end they had the other person do it and he got in one shot. It’s just 3-4 vials I think and they are small.

Ps I have small veins but had quite a few blood draws both before and after dy that had no problems but dy was def the worst experience I had for a blood test. I would say 95% of ppl dont have a problem so based on that you will be fine

Also drink extra water before and if you can have some water/oj after so you don’t feel weak

Hatzlocha. You’ll be fine

are toms really as comfortable as they say? hows the arch support and ball-of-the-foot cushioning on them?

if you hold it in, you’re going to make some funny faces at them. say ‘excuse me. i need to sneeze’, turn to the side and sneeze into your elbow. or say ‘excuse me for one moment. i need to go find a tissue’. i think thats less rude then holding in the sneeze

NOMTW, i appreciate the mention but i’m just a nursing student who is trying to helpful. if a person needs medical advice they should get it from a doctor or someone with more training than i have.

my mother got a bosch when she got married-the one that has the pillar in the middle. its the one with the plastic cover and can easily make 6 lbs of challah. its alittle difficult to take the dough out sometimes if its a stiffer dough but its usually not a problem. cleaning is easy if its soaked. for all other baked stuff we use a kitchen aid.

i got to use a magic mill while in seminary. i was not so into the arm attachment thing a majiggy. it was a strong machine though. personally though, i would want the basch for challah. or a kitchen aid. the regular one can make 7 cups of flour easily. it does struggle at 3 lbs or more

the parent may or may not have over reacted. but i do know the boys half of my former elementary school used to hire girls to go through textbooks and edit the pictures and content. we used to complain cuz they didnt do that for the girls.

one week my brother came home with a times for kids mini magazine. blacked out was a sentence that the world is x many years old.

my HS bio book had a whole chapter removed. i think its obvious which was removed.

when i read caine mutiny court trial for a book report, i read the unedited version. curse words and all. when my HS decided to use that book as a class book, they got enough copies for the entire grade and the secretary sat with a sharpie and edited every copy.

personally, i dont think there is a problem with calling a spouse “dear”. but i do think its the schools responsibility to check kashrus of books. IIRC there is mosdos press or something along that name in cleveland that makes kosher textbooks

i do know my HS left the word “damn” (a separate peace). the teacher substituted the word “darn” when she read it out loud.

oh been there done that a few months ago. got out of it B”H.

does your work have human resources or something who can help you? colleagues may also have an idea if they had to get out. i dont know what the excuses are where you live but where i am, they weren’t so helpful.

hatzlocha!

when people say yene machla instead of saying ‘cancer’. why JUST cancer? say yene machla about heart attacks, strokes, etc. CHAS V’SHALOM any person should have these tzoros but why did did 1 disease get singled out to be a machla?

i mean this post 100% seriously, no sarcasm is in this post

PBA: “If you are going to nursing school, go for the cheaper one.”

do you really want the person dispensing high alert drugs having a cheap cut-rate education? i wouldn’t. and i’m in a private nursing school and i have classmates i would NEVER want near any family member of mine. or yours.

oneofmany, that being said, i have a friend in NYU nursing school. but i know why she chose that school. (its a good reason too)

the best prank we ever pulled was actually the teachers fault! it was a year of double adar and R”CH aleph was right after midterms and break so no one had their books in school the first day back (last day of shvat). the teacher wrote e/t on the board for the day and was fine but for HW told us to bring in our books and calculators for class the next day. a few periods later, we got a message from the teacher that b/c tom was R”CH, we don’t have to do our HW. (had this teacher for 3 years and her policy is no HW on R”CH) OK fine. we went home that night and didn’t do our HW but we all remembered to bring our books and calculators to school. but during lunch, someone pointed out the teacher said we don’t have to do our HW…. so we decided we would bring our stuff to class but put the books under other stuff, in the desk etc. when the teacher came in and told us to take out our books, we told her you told us we didn’t have to do our HW, and part of our HW was to bring in our books…. so she had to read the problems out loud to us again.

at the end of class, she told us she liked the shtick that we did b/c she wasn’t expecting it and it also mean or a/t. and then we took out our books from where they were and she started laughing.

att the wolf: many of the things you do are VERY similar to things in my house. in that case, i guess i’m going to hell as well.

to all those who say the wolf needs help, lay off him. i think his style of posting is short, curt and to the point.all the Wolf is saying is that he is not perfect and has things he believes he needs to improve upon. halivai we should all have the attitude that we are human and have imperfect areas that can be worked on

you also forgot the American sems and Canadian sems

AOM, thought a yesivish car is one where e/t makes noise except the horn

maybe you should ask single girls WHY she wears makeup. and i’ll even answer your question. if i did not wear makeup, i would not want to look in the mirror. i wear ‘full face’ makeup every day but it varies in heaviness based on the setting.

as hockster613 said, its usually to cover up a problem spot or bring emphasis to one area. ei, eyeliner to brighten eyes or make them look larger than they are. but i agree there is a fine line between looking respectable and presentable and overdone/circus clown. each situation a young women puts on make up, being for work, college, shabbos, wedding etc. requires a different type of application, be it heavier or more neutral. it kinda a sensitivity to know the amount of makeup needed, just like certain styles of dress are ‘tznius’ but those with a sensitivity to tznius won’t wear that style.

how do you say kugel in english? supposedly its “pudding” but potato pudding makes me think of liquidy mashed potatoes.

milchig noodle kugel is a dif dish than potato kugel and thats dif than zucchini kugel so in each one it means s/t else.

so how do you translate it?

the ability to see the repercussion of actions. i dont mean seeing the future, just what one action will cause.

i don’t mean it as cold. CH”V! most posters here are neither here nor there. they are in my parve pot so to say. sorry if i offended you. i meant no harm.

FYI-for your information.

VNSNY-Visiting Nurse Service of New York

pts-patient

sorry. in NS (nursing school) e/t gets abbreviated to the point my notes look like ABC soup and it spilled into my every day language

crazybrit, just FYI, you are on my bad side as of now. i shadowed a VNSNY nurse today and one of the pts she visited lit up while we were there. i had to leave the room because i couldnt breath. your comment that i should get some first hand smoke is rude, insulting, disgusting and terrible.
