This email is a known hoax.
as has been every similar email that i have ever received.
thanks blink
ill change it then
im pretty sure the link is incorrect, there should be a / after “com”
but i dont want to change it until someone confirms this since it seems no one else has a problem with it, and i know little about these things.
they are the same poster
the moderators arent involved with the radio
i would surmise, since the link and the broken radio are still there, that they are having technical problems but working on it.
those working on it probably do not read CR posts.
i cant do better than that rebbitzen
I am still waiting for anybody to provide a clear source that tightness anywhere is a real halachic problem.
it is included in the Halachah that a woman must be tznius, which includes all sorts of behaviors that one must use your Daas Torah to determine.
why do you need a written source for particular detail of tznius?
do you have a source for why six-inch high heels are not tznius?
you know what tznius is
you know why skin-tight clothing in a woman is not tznius
im not about to state it here.
your insistence on a source is as silly as could be.
only in todays immoral degenerate climate could you ask such a question
lok in Rabbi Falks book if you wish a source.
gavra thats aquite surprising statement, isnt it?
why do you suppose he says that?
what is the context?
is it possible he is referring to the arm being visible if the sleeve is TOO loose?
is he implying in that statement that skin tight is fine?
does he state elsewhere in his book anything about skin tight?
perhaps some members here are blessed with a touch of Ruach HaKodesh. perhaps in Shamayim you are already engaged. may you find your bashert here on the eretz very soon.
please visit more often areivim
this was written in explanation of the source of a common error that people make re the Moshiach. (see artchills post)
a Limud like this is perfectly appropriate, and you will find elucidative comments re other religions in the Gemorrah, Midrashim and all over the Meforshim.
truly a BasMelech.
it brings me a great Simcha to hear the Torahs Emes spoken in a place where sadly so many have been separated from it, by living among the goyim
PIKUACH NEFESH TRUMPS TZNIUT!
its not pikuach nefesh when it is very easy to avoid, ie not riding the bike, if it involves a lack of tznius.
note im not commenting on your Rabbis psak, just on the particular comment you made.
yup thats also 2 that are four. its in Zevachim also
the plum thing was a half joke but it does fulfill the requirements
youll have to think about it
moving objects from one domain to another
and whats wrong with the plum answer?
Surely he could get a job as a CR mod!
no current openings for moderators here
however
because of the great stress that moderators are constantly confronted with, we are required to undergo testing and counseling every 4 months. we could always use another psychologist.
please have him send his resume to: [email protected]

by the way to avoid the problem of safek Brocha Achrona, i recommend eating a cupful in less than 9 minutes, just to be sure

to really be the best you need an eye and an intuitive sense for composition, lighting, and emotional impact
but one can improve dramatically and continually with education and experience
are you sure?
we sent it out quite a while ago
my recipe, choc chip cookies supreme:
1 bag of chocolate chips
0 flour
0 sugar
0 baking powder
0 oatmeal
combine all ingredients in the bag the chips came in
eat a small handful at a time
make sure you eat enough so there is no safek about a Brocha Achrona.
I heard of this awesome diet. You only drink water (except kiddush) and you eat whatever you want. The person who told me about it swears by it. I think she calls it “The Tanta Diet” or something like that, and the water is then called “Tanta Juice” Let us know how it works for you.
im not sure if you are joking or not. of course that makes no sense at all
xylitol is not calorieless
it has half the calories of sucrose
it is also absorbed more slowly than sucrose, which is good

“With that being said, I agree that the vast majority of Muslims want peace and consider Islam to be a religion of peace. “
thats a nice thought DP, and oft said
is it true?
i dont think so
look what they teach their children in school.
oh
i wasnt really following the thread
i just saw your post isolated
good
i didnt want to get into an argument with you
is every german responsible for the holocaust?
the xian nation is responsible as a whole
collective responsibility is a Torah concept.
there is additionally a logical rationale for this.

something about the having the status of a bathhouse

carfax spends a lot of money on advertising but autocheck is far, far cheaper and probably better as well. when you shopping for a used car you have to check the cars history all the time. carfax is 30 dollars for 5 reports. autocheck is 30 dollars for unlimited reports for 6 months. when i was shopping recently i checked car histories probably a hundred times. thats $30 vs $600
more tips from consumer reports:
* Shop by price. Remember that you are renting a car, not a company. All of the majors rent new or nearly new low-mileage vehicles. Don’t care whose car you drive? Anne Banas, executive editor of http://www.smartertravel.com, suggests that you consider http://www.hotwire.com, a discount-travel site that offers deals without revealing the name of the rental agency until after booking is completed.
* Forget labels. Some rental outfits–such as Advantage, Fox Rent A Car, and Midway–aren’t name brands but offer good deals, says Neil Abrams, a consultant in Purchase, N.Y., on the car-rental business. Go to http://www.carrentalexpress.com, http://www.carrentals.com, or similar Web sites to find some of these independent agencies.
* Ask about taxes and fees. Car-rental agreements might include extra costs such as an airport-concession fee (the rent or royalty paid to the airport), excise tax (the costs associated with registering a vehicle), and, of course, sales tax. In some areas, additional surcharges are levied on car rentals to help finance municipal projects like convention centers, sports arenas, and mass-transportation projects. Before you make your reservation, get a firm, bottom-line quote that includes all extra charges.
* Beware of other charges. You’ll be penalized if you turn in the car late. The clock starts ticking from the moment you take the keys. If you show up after your scheduled return time, you could be stuck paying for a full extra day. (Sorry, but the one- or two-hour grace period is now often only 30 minutes.) Also, expect to pay an additional charge for renting a car in one location and dropping it off in another. While a few routes may incur no penalty, most do. And Abrams says to avoid paying for “bells and whistles, like a GPS unit or satellite radio, you don’t need.”
* Ask for discounts. Always inquire if the rental agency gives discounts to members of AAA, AARP, or warehouse clubs like Costco or Sam’s Club. Most of them do. Also watch for coupons or offers in travel magazines or at warehouse-club checkout areas. A discount might equal one day’s rental or an upgrade.
* Go off-site. It’s often cheaper to rent from a branch office that isn’t at the airport. Ask your hotel if there’s one nearby. Or type the hotel’s street address into the car-rental company’s Web site to find branch offices. Some rental companies, such as Enterprise, will pick you up and drop you off–usually within a specified mile radius–at no charge.
* Book small, hope big. Always reserve the smallest vehicle you can tolerate. It’s a good bet you’ll be bumped to a bigger model free, because most rental companies have larger fleets of intermediate- and full-sized cars. Just don’t let the agent talk you into paying extra for the upgrade. If your teeny Geo isn’t available on time, you might be able to enjoy a spacious Lincoln Continental for the same price.
* Inspect your car before departure. Make sure that the rental representative sees every significant nick, scratch, or dent on the vehicle and notes them on your rental agreement. Otherwise you could be held liable for damage that was caused by a previous customer.
* Gas up. If you don’t fill the tank before returning the car, you could pay dearly–two to three times more than at the pump–for the company to do it. As you are driving away from the rental-car lot, jot down the locations of nearby gas stations so you’ll know where to refuel just before you return the vehicle.
from consumer reports magazine:
Resist the pitch for insurance. The car-rental agent will probably attempt to persuade you to buy insurance to cover any damage to your rented car. But your own automobile insurance policy might already provide protection. Most private policies cover rented cars as long as the person who signs the rental agreement is behind the wheel. If you have any doubts, check your policy or call your agent. Some credit-card companies also pay for rental-car coverage as a benefit for premium cardholders. Just make sure you use that card when you book your rental.

ok
im sorry squeak i dont understand your question
oh i dont doubt that its a common answer to that question in the Jewish world today
so your Rav told you that there is no problem for a married Jewish woman to shake the hand of a man (not frum)
interesting
this thread should NOT be closed
discussions of Halacha are fine here
it is up to everyone to use their common sense and ask Shailos where appropriate. everyone knows this.
you are telling no one here a chiddush
undertow, riptide
i wanted the second born to have his bris first.
i figured the elder would be taunting the younger all his childhood with: “well im older than you!”
i wanted the younger to be able to retort with: “well, i had my Bris before you”
but i was told the elder should go first.
the real purpose of this thread is to let AZ state and defend his agenda, ignoring any other possible suggestions or solutions, so that he doesnt hijack every other potential thread on shiduchim

i know of a double bris that occurred recently. the Mohel (also a Posek) determined the procedure. there were some Psukim or something said between the brissim, otherwise it was like any other Bris, just one after the other. the meal was served after both.
i believe Aleinu was said after both not after each one.
