aom
i dont think you are correct
but i cant tell you why (because i dont know)
i dont think taste is a verb here
i think its some kind of noun like “the taste of winston”
i dont think “good” is incorrect
winston tastes well would be incorrect
winston isnt tasting anything
HAIFA??
YW Moderator-80Memberim not arguing on anything else you said
YW Moderator-80Memberthe only “error” i can find is like instead of as, but im not sure thats incorrect
from dictionary.com (i have no idea how authoritative that is)
“like
19.
in the same way as; just as; as: It happened like you might expect it would.
20.
as if: He acted like he was afraid. The car runs like new.
YW Moderator-80Memberfor the most part got over it
says who?
i tend to doubt it.
YW Moderator-80Member“Winston tastes good like a cigarette should.”
haifa, how would you make that grammatically correct?
YW Moderator-80MemberSee Igros Moshe, Even HoEzer Vol. 4:65:16; Mishneh Halachos Vol. 4:187; Tzitz Eliezer Vol. 6:22:4
YW Moderator-80Memberi think the general consensus of those that permit it is that in circumstances such as a small private building, or late at night, etc. one should be machmir if at all possible
YW Moderator-80Membersome poskim say yes it is yichud
Shevet Halevi Vol. 3:184. Chelkas Yaakov Vol. 2:14 and Minchas Yitzchok Vol. 4:94 rule that Yichud in an elevator is only permitted b’dieved
most say no (because the elevator is likely to stop and the door opened to the public at any moment)
YW Moderator-80Membernot at all
the very quote you responded to specified that the problem was one of claiming exclusivity of a particular person , such as a prophet,, not a commonality to the entire Jewish people
YW Moderator-80Memberthats “our” not “my”
however there are other places where we say elokai
YW Moderator-80Memberuse real peppermint tea
available all over
YW Moderator-80MemberJust to end off, your relationship with your spouse, which is hopefully as beautiful as you make it sound, is the biggest treasure in the world
just to illustrate the importance of commas in bringing clarity, read the above sentence without the first comma.
YW Moderator-80Memberi retract my retracted post and reformulate it in its place in the chronology of the thread as stating:
“i retract the portions of my previous posts that stated and/or implied that there was a significant flaw in wolfs logic vis a vis his statement arguing on the validity of the analogy between the said notes and the open and public display of bank statement.”
YW Moderator-80Memberyoure right
i didnt say you claimed it
it was an observation
it is my observation (opinion) that that tendency applies to you more than most posters
YW Moderator-80Memberwell
i entirely retract my last two posts then
YW Moderator-80Memberi personally have no interest in what wolf does in his house
the point of my post above is that wolf likes to be flawless in his logic. i thought he was a bit remiss in this case
YW Moderator-80MemberC’mon… you’re not actually equating an “I love you” with a bank statement, are you? If a stranger comes into my home and sees my bank statement, there is the potential for identity theft. No such problem exists with an “I love you” on the fridge.
well of course any analogy is exactly that an analogy not an identity. but it seems to me this is a pretty good one. a bank statement is private and, for whatever reasons, one would not want others to see it. the maker of the analogy here is assuming that love letters between a husband and wife are also private and one should reasonably not want others to view them, for different reasons than identity theft.
true one can bring financial ruin and the other may cause no harm whatsoever, but the point of the analogy is that a reasonable person should have a strong desire to keep both matters private, albeit for entirely different reasons.
YW Moderator-80Memberhow long did it take you to type that?

The images were most unusual… the brain was virtually absent.”
YW Moderator-80MemberDr. Richard Ferber discusses and outlines a wide range of practices to teach an infant to sleep. The term ferberization is now popularly used to refer to the following techniques:
* Take steps to prepare the baby to sleep. This includes night-time rituals and day-time activities.
* At bedtime, leave the child in bed and leave the room.
* Return at progressively increasing intervals to comfort the baby (without picking him up). For example, on the first night, some scenarios call for returning first after three minutes, then after five minutes, and thereafter each ten minutes, until the baby is asleep.
* Each subsequent night, return at intervals longer than the night before. For example, the second night may call for returning first after five minutes, then after ten minutes, and thereafter each twelve minutes, until the baby is asleep.
The technique is targeted at infants as young as 4 months of age. A few babies are capable of sleeping through the night at 3 months, with training, and most are capable of sleeping through the night at 6 months. Before 6 months of age, the baby may still need to feed during the night and it is probable that the baby will require a night feeding before three months.
Ferber made some modifications in the 2006 edition of his book Solve Your Child’s Sleep Problems. He is now more open to co-sleeping and feels different approaches work for different families/children
YW Moderator-80Memberi just took a look at their website.
it is total obvious baloney
heres a small quote wherein they describe the “system” in a nutshell:
i hope they meant “holistic”
YW Moderator-80Memberyes
i said i wasnt aware of that use of wifi. thank you
YW Moderator-80MemberMod80 – you can use WiFi to connect to a LAN that doesnt have internet.
oh
Also, even if you use the internet over WiFi, you still need an internet service via broadband cable, dsl, or dialup.
exactly what i said in my post, read again the parenthetic statement in the second paragraph.
YW Moderator-80MemberDoesn’t even necessarily need internet altogether
i suppose that can be construed as a technically correct statement but it is functionally false. the entire function of wifi is to access the internet (wirelessly). its kind of like saying a cellphone doesnt need a cellphone service. true it will still light up and make keypad tones but it cant perform the function for which it was created (like atheists).
dial-up, cable, dsl are the main technologies to access the internet.
wifi is a technology to broadcast ones internet connection (once accessed via the above), wirelessly and locally so that it can be accessed with a nearby wireless device.

YW Moderator-80Memberim on their waiting list which really means i wasnt accepted.
i think it means you are on their waiting list.

YW Moderator-80Memberstill dont think so
YW Moderator-80Memberwhats a falg? i hope its nothing alive.

February 18, 2011 3:59 pm at 3:59 pm in reply to: How Many Grandchildren Do You Hope To Have? #741921YW Moderator-80Memberi should say then *at least* a googol
February 18, 2011 3:52 pm at 3:52 pm in reply to: How Many Grandchildren Do You Hope To Have? #741919YW Moderator-80Memberi see but who would want to limit such a wonderful Brocha by giving a number?
i guess id say a googol.
i would say a googolplex but then remembering birthdays could become a problem.
YW Moderator-80Memberits a hergish some people have
its not a Halacha
though it is fulfilling the Mitzvah of zochor es ha Shabbos if you have such a hergesh and act on it
YW Moderator-80Memberobservanteen
thank you
i have taken the same risk a few times before and usually DO get taken seriously
but i suspect most readers simply said: “what in the world is he talking about?”
February 18, 2011 3:34 pm at 3:34 pm in reply to: How Many Grandchildren Do You Hope To Have? #741917YW Moderator-80Memberwas there anything in particular you were interested in or expecting when you asked this question?
YW Moderator-80Memberyou probably need a different type of kehilah, where everyone feels like a family and is always looking out for others. where people tend to actually be on the lookout for opportunities to do Chesed. thats the kind of place i also like
i think you made the right decision in going somewhere else
YW Moderator-80Memberprobably
they probably would say they didnt notice you
maybe they noticed you but were concentrating and figured someone else would surely give you a seat
whatever it is, i find it difficult to condemn a whole bunch of frum Jewish women who come to shul to hear the Megillah
i understand how you feel, and i wasnt there, and im sure the best of our Jewish women would have made a point of noticing you and giving you a seat,
but i just cant condemn themthere is always another side to the story
and usually when we hear it our heart softens and we drop our previously harsh judgement
thank you for not getting defensive and for listening thoughtfully to those here that did not fully agree with you.
YW Moderator-80Memberi would love to ask all those girls and women why they acted as they did (assuming they were asked the next day). It would be very interesting to hear what they have to say.
YW Moderator-80Membercorrect, but many are not
YW Moderator-80Memberit was more of a poll than a question
some people may not be aware of this Halachah
YW Moderator-80Membermany Poskim are not of that opinion
YW Moderator-80Memberyes
youre right
YW Moderator-80Memberi think what a pushetayid, and some others were trying to say, is that if someone has a very important need for a seat, it behooves them to come well on time (rather than relying on the good manners of others). if its not such an important need then its fine to come at the last minute. as they said of course that doesnt excuse the failure of good manners on the part of others
YW Moderator-80Memberi think being makpid on nusach is jejune
YW Moderator-80Memberyes feif-un you are exactly correct
(which is why i didnt post that opinion until some else very authoritatively posted a different opinion)
YW Moderator-80Memberand i was told by a well known Posek that the Halachah is that you must make it absolutely clear to the person that he may not come to a Shabbos Seudah if he is going to drive home afterwards, no hinting, no suggestions, absolute instructions.
YW Moderator-80Membermsseeker i dont know why you dont believe in reading comprehension programs. i think they are very helpful. and what does that have to do with this thread anyway?
and of course this isnt a post office, its a forum.
