fascinating article
especially the story of Dr. Koop, the surgeon general
i highly doubt that the poster wants an answer
i think its pretty clear he is interested in a discussion
cathy is more my speed
i wish i could say more
the people are certainly ultimately responsible to live properly
but the medical profession is not without a whole lot of blame
in general they talk a lot about “lifestyle” but are not really committed to the idea
they generally prefer to throw some pills at the “patient”.
thats the bulk
there are of course some exceptions
my post was directed to wolf not dunno
i see how that could be ambiguous
well rudeness and bad manners create an environment which has a hashpoh on those immersed in it even if they recognize it for what it is
im sorry,
that post of mr was deleted but he reposted it and it slipped by. he tends to post in a huge flurry and its hard to catch everything. you only see about 10% of his posts.
whoah!
this is why some people are afraid to post here.
helpful pointed out that there is a preference for married people in some inyanim. you can apply it or not apply it where you choose.

chesedname why dont you decide what to work on and start a new thread with that in the title
someone might be interested to know that i knew sidney sheldon.
he also created a tv show called: “the patty duke show” among others.
one of the characters in that show was named after me.
olive oil isnt low in ldl and triglycerides
it doesnt contain any
it is a monosaturated fat and that is why it is healthy
(at least according to todays understanding of such things, that will inevitably drastically change within a decade or so)
and a persons blood levels of lipids including ldl and triglycerides is not related to their intake of said fats (except perhaps minimally)
everyone agrees
popa was joking (reading aries post not as a suggestion of a midah but as a criticism of the idea of the thread)
his humor is sometimes invisible

It depends on whether there is a constructive purpose to their conversation and all the other factors relevant to toeles.
they certainly shouldnt be talking about their boys in front of you
and you shouldnt be listening.
the fact that it is with each other does not not make it Loshon Ha Rah unless they are not careful with the conditions of toeles
no negative comments please
you may not think so but that is pure LashonHaRah
thank you SJ
what is rosenthal china and why does it need toiveling
i couldnt find out much on google except that its expensive
Anyway, I didn’t have any real Turkey this thanksgiving. Does that make me holy?
could be…
unless you had pumpkin pie or cranberry sauce
i have no idea
I wish people who object could just look at it a little more objectively.
YOU are the one looking at it subjectively.
objectively the only question is what do the Poskim and Gedolim tell us is the correct behavior re this matter.
they HAVE spoken about this because there are important Halachic considerations and on this there is a difference of opinion.
YOU on the other hand have determined the correct course of action based on your own personal analysis.
maserati!?…a go-kart.
i will only drive a Bugatti Veyron
you think some people possibly were lying?
the “super sport” version of the Veyron sells new for about $3,000,000
but i got a great deal on a used one.
myfriend: Why wouldn’t you tell someone to enjoy their holiday?
well minyangal perhaps it is an issur, prohibited by the Torah, which you are commanded by the Creator to follow, sometimes to die for. this is called Halachah.
perhaps it isnt an issur, perhaps it is in some circumstances. it certainly behooves a Jew to investigate these things and not just decide based on what feels good to ones wholly american mind.
its another factor
another piece of information
it doesnt have to be the basis
Maybe little boys can be sullen, but men in general…?
oh yes
at home, with their wives, not with their friends
wives, please chime in
i think women tend to change moods much more quickly than men
but men are grumpier and kind of wall up in their quiet sullenness.
obviously these are very broad general statements
i see
thanks for clarifying
homeowner i dont understand the point you are trying to make.
are you saying we shouldnt be thankful every day?
are you saying modeh ani is not a daily expression of thanks?
do you really think the fact that we only say shehechyanu on particular special days as instituted by Chazal that this indicates on other days we do not express our gratitude in many other ways?
do you have a point or are you just trying to find some fault in saftalas very sweet post?

i think (other than the nagging part, men generally dont nag)you have described a common male picture not female.
men are more likely to be moody and brooding and grumpy and lash out at their wives when they are upset about something else.
to repeat:
This poster has determined how to conduct him(her) self and is asking for advice on how to approach the problem practically.
We dont need another discussion about the permissibility of shaking hands.

i certainly didnt say or imply “all” modes
the chareidim shitah is that chumros arent “unecessary”
i wasnt aware that MO are machmir on many things that chareidim arent, thanks for pointing that out
and of course dave hirsch is correct
i also heard sever comes from sevara but with a different teich,
that you should show thought in them on your face, just not a greeting with no interest shown on your face
the shitah of modern orthodoxy is to assimilate the modern goyish modes of conduct into their lives of adherence to all aspects of Halachah (generally, in practice, being as makil as Halachah permits).
while in this generation, in the western world, many Chareidim have also embraced the goyish culture and values in many ways, for them it is not a shitah, but rather a failing.
therein is the critically significant difference.
smart
hard to say
maybe about from 1-5 pm
i admire you
how cute

looks to me like bp was interested in information as to what had changed regarding the status of bourbon. doesnt seem like he actually asked a shaila.
but there is also such a thing as thinking things over, or changing your mind, or dealing with internal struggles, or improving your character or working on prishus

whoah popa, lets be fair and honest here.
i lost a great deal as well and kept it off (the loss was over 5 years) and it was easy for me.
BUT
and this is a very big but
losing weight and keeping it off is for 99.9% of people who need to EXCEEDINGLY DIFFICULTand pretty close to impossible. quite a bit harder than stopping smoking which is a matter of totally rejecting something which you cant safely do with eating.
we all know this from experience and very clear large studies as well (if you go in for such things)
although it is popular now for overweight people to claim they are happy with how they are, many of them would sacrifice many things that are dear to them if they could lose the weight they so wish to.
