blinky yes it is interesting.
icot already explained the cause of death.
suicide secondary to insanity.
YW Moderator-80Memberyes feif, what are you implying?
;-]
YW Moderator-80Memberi dont recall but one was “philosopher” who is someone i know
June 21, 2011 6:25 pm at 6:25 pm in reply to: Many attempts were made for the Kallah. How would you proceed? #791130YW Moderator-80Memberi get the feeling from the op, that although he wishes to try and collect the fee in this case, he sounds like he doesnt want to make his shadchanus in general a “business” and would probably be uncomfortable discussing payment up front. sounds like he gets a lot of pleasure in doing this as well as some Parnassah?
am i right?
so sometimes a case like this might occur and then the question comes up how to handle it, not how he should change his practice so thaat it doesnt happen again.
am i still right?
if i am please dont say well if he doesnt discuss payment up front he has to expect problems sometimes. true but thats not the point. what is asking is how to handle this case now, yes?
YW Moderator-80Memberno one has in a long time
but there were a bunch last year
YW Moderator-80MemberCooking is done over a seal oil-lamp. A soapstone pot is hung over the lamp, continuously providing a soup or cooked meat whenever it is needed. The hunters catch seal, caribou and fish which the women prepare and cook. Sometimes meat is left to freeze and thin slices cut and eaten raw.

YW Moderator-80Membericot
not sure if you are kidding but i had that same idea
however 1. she didnt say it was an igloo, but thats a minor point
2. i think eskimos cook in the igloo, isnt that the main reason for the chimney? i think the heat just hardens the walls.
YW Moderator-80Membermaid
no corner in round house
pretty dumb maid
YW Moderator-80MemberJust to clarify again- I am not stupid enough to rely on the cr (although I love you all:) for advice in a situation like this
of course not!
i know that
(and everyone else should too)
YW Moderator-80Memberif you dont feel comfortable posting sensitive things here okay.
but there is nothing to apologize for and please feel free to post again
no one was offended by this thread in the least
red nails was just speaking in your best interest that you shouldnt rely soley on the CR
im not closing this so please post here some more
YW Moderator-80Memberhappiest
thank you for your concern and modesty
this thread is just fine, there is no issue
YW Moderator-80MemberMAIZE is the Spanish word for corn
not entirely true
maize is the word for what we call corn, could be it has a spanish origin but:
corn is a generic term for grain
columbus, or some professor who came with him, called the maize there “corn” meaning this is grain
maize is a specific kind of corn
the on the cob stuff is really maize in all languages
i hope you are confused
YW Moderator-80Memberin Bava Metzia it states 3 reasons that a TALMID CHOCHOM is allowed to lie.
YW Moderator-80Memberyeah…right
YW Moderator-80Memberand why did you capitalize the s in serious?
YW Moderator-80MemberKapusta, i have a question for you
why IS the k in your name capitalized? (not serious)
YW Moderator-80Memberokay
ive got a few minutes to post
ive written this already a number of times
im speaking for myself only
if someone will write ***exactly*** what they want as a subtitle
and i happen to see that post
and im not too busy i will usually do it
i do not want, usually, to be burdened with thinking up my own idea for the subtitle, i dont know all the posters that well
YW Moderator-80Membersome kinds of corn are eaten by humans
some kinds are only suitable for animal fodder
it also depends at what stage it is picked
wikipedia has a nice description
YW Moderator-80MemberIs there something wrong with driving with the windows down and playing Jewish music semi loud?
most certainly
chronic exposure to loud sound damages the hearing. f you want to be able to hear your anyclach when they talk to you, guard your hearing when you are young
YW Moderator-80Memberdaniel
i think its a bandwagon thing.
now that a poster sees how everyone is criticizing joseph, its easy to do so yourself, without fear of one being considered rude.
YW Moderator-80Memberyes quark, until very recently there has been no problem with cotc in america according to all (or certainly the majority) of major kashrus agencies. although the interview with R’ Vaye was from a year ago and indicated there IS a problem, he lives in Yerushalayim.
this apparently is a problem only a few weeks old, as far as i can tell so far, that is why i didnt know what the op was talking about in his anectodal reporting of an incident.
YW Moderator-80Memberit was closed because of all the anti-frum posts coming in (deleted) decrying the unnecessary chumros.
it was re-opened because smartccokie understood that there IS a problem in america and that my post was mistaken and could cause some people to stumble. on the chance that he was correct i felt it important to modify my post and hear some more discussion
YW Moderator-80Memberon the other hand an alert from kashrut.com, dated 6/3/11:
“Corn on the Cob: Recently, kashrus agencies have reported finding insects in corn on the cob. When the husk is removed, these insects scurry inside in between the niblets. Frozen corn on the cob and canned corn do not appear to have a problem.
Guidelines to preparing corn on the cob:
Do not cook with the husk on.
Do not barbeque raw corn. Cook it first.
Remove the husks, wash the corn, and inspect well. Do not cook what has holes or is rotting.
After cooking, check the water, especially the top of the water. If insects or worms are found there, discard the corn.
Ed. note (6/15/11): The cRc and Star-K have not found infestation in the corn that they examined.
YW Moderator-80MemberstarK and cRc both say there is no problem. you just have to take a look and make sure there is no obvious bugs present. you dont even have to wash it. i cant find anything on the OK site
YW Moderator-80Memberi have been informed by “smartcookie” that indeed there is a problem in the us as well
YW Moderator-80MemberIt is not allowed in eretz yisroel. There is a major and ubiquitous infestation there. It is not a problem in the us. I dont know what the op was talking about.
YW Moderator-80Memberno its not
YW Moderator-80Memberthats a good idea but
were not talkng absorptions here
were talking mamshis
are you sure none got into the nozzle of the bottle?
i dont know if you can rely on bitul, l chatchila
i dont know the Halacha
i wouldnt use it though.
YW Moderator-80Memberproof from how our Fathers conducted themselve in those days as to how we must conduct ourselves today is far from amazing.
YW Moderator-80Memberdo you want to squeeze some ketchup with some cold roast beef gravy at the tip onto your cheese sandwich?
June 17, 2011 4:38 pm at 4:38 pm in reply to: Are you allowed to buy cut up fruits in a non jewish store? #778535YW Moderator-80Memberim not sure what erudite means
but No you are not permitted to.
some rule leniently on this when a variety of conditions are fulfilled, such as there is no meat department there, or the knife is known to be used only for fruit, or other things (im apparently not erudite enough to know which)
no one in my circles would ever buy such cut-up-fruit.
YW Moderator-80MemberCould us people kindly remind ourselves of who we’re talking about. Those same girls (still available) danced once more. When?! Right. On the holiest day of the year, Yom Kippur. OBVIOUSLY both bochurim and girls had something else in mind. Could we compare s=ourselves to that generation. The Kedusha and Tahara! Rabbi Miller says (somewhere), boys went to pick a girl then, like one inspects and buys an esrog nowadays. Their lives were filled with holiness, he married to fulfill Ratzon HaShem, he sought the most perfect one for that tafkid. If we’d have that mindset, we’d be in great shape.

thank you for bringing EMES here, for a change.

YW Moderator-80Memberi think you guys are putting us on.
i think you are making this stuff up
YW Moderator-80Membermik
you are arguing to the wall
yes we know what Hashem means.
some feel more comfortable writing H-shem than Hashem (perhaps because we say “Hashem” so frequently it, to some, has taken on a bit of Kedushah itself, there are other reasons).
does that bother you? do you feel a need to speak out and chastise someone who does this? has anyone berated you for not doing this? do you feel anger against those who do something that you do not?
YW Moderator-80Memberyou are right bomb
however i like to misuse and make up words
not a Halachah
not even a Chumra
YW Moderator-80Membergavra
probably you are not understanding me
people sometimes conduct themselves according to a Toradik feeling.
i wont cross over someones lawn to get to my car (for those who live in ny, i can explain “lawn” in a later post if you wish) if a sidewalk is available. i always (by always i mean usually) enter a building with my R leg first. etc.
i dont “push this down anyones throat” (a commonly misused and overused phrase here) its just a personal feeling
have you heard those that use H-shem say it is a Halachah? i doubt it. they just “feel” it is more respectable.
YW Moderator-80Memberher friend did not say it is assur for all.
this is what her friend said: When I mentioned I always see plenty of chareidim in the library, she said, “Well, they aren’t really chareidim. see haifagirls 3rd post or so.
you of course are welcome to enter a library.
YW Moderator-80Memberi would like to meet your friend
YW Moderator-80Membergoing into a public library nowadays, is certainlty not something to be done by someone who is trying to become a Tzadik, and increase his closeness to Hashem. i would only enter a public library under a limited set of circumstances.
YW Moderator-80Memberdid she say the salads should be removed because they will otherwise become fleishig? did you interpret her as meaning this?
many people are makpid, and rightly so, if their salad usually becomes leftovers for later meals, to remove it before the meat or milk comes out to ensure that it will remain parave, and not accidentally become M or F.
YW Moderator-80Memberhergush: feeling
YW Moderator-80Memberthe use by some of: “H-shem”
has been explained before. no one is claiming it to be a chumrah, and certainly not a Halachah
it is merely a personal heirgush.
and should certainly not be denigrated.
YW Moderator-80MemberI’m not sure. Chumra Creep is a real issue, and perhaps this was a humorous way of trying to get the point out.
exactly
YW Moderator-80Memberthis thread was started as facetiousism
YW Moderator-80MemberBetter yet, suppose the parties are not in court during jury selection, as sometimes happens, and after you get selected, you then learn that the litigation is between two Jews, what are you supposed to do?
we did not discuss this.
what i would do is tell the judge i cannot serve,(and i would refuse to serve unless the Rav instructed me to).
YW Moderator-80Memberi didnt ask him every possible situation that could occur. but i did ask him this, and i had my phone. he said i should tell them that i am not allowed to serve on a jury case between two Jews because of my religion. if they questioned me i should have them call him. if it escalated i would have to have played it by ear (meaning to keep in touch with him and refuse to serve on the jury unless at some point he permitted it)
YW Moderator-80Membercant give you an exact recipe
but this is good
water
a few tblspns canola oil
all kinds of vegetables
osem onion soup mix, a bunch, this contains salt, so dont salt the soup until youve added the onion soup mix and tasted it.
cook for a long time, a few hours.
that is all
YW Moderator-80Memberi prefer you ask your Posek
YW Moderator-80Memberim not sure what you mean
he didnt say anything about a need to investigate the Jews degree of frumkeit. i believe he meant there is no distinction. youd have to ask him for further elucidation.
