At Yeshivas Medrash Chaim, under the guidance of our esteemed Rosh Yeshiva, HARAV REPHAEL MOSHE GETTINGER SHLIT"A, a direct descendent of the Netziv, zt”l, and Rav Chaim Volozhiner, zt”l, we strive to provide our talmidim with the kind of learning that inspires a passion for Torah life and learning—continuing in the mesorah of Volozhin.

Bais Havaad halacha journal: Mall Melee, the shopping mall contreversy

            What is a community’s recourse to prevent nearby development? a Halachic discussion by the
 Bais Havaad Halacha Journal :
-The validity of secular regulation in halacha
-Fighting the development in the township zoning or planning board

Thehalachacenter.org- A quiet, residential neighborhood, a mini-community of seniors to whom a tranquil pace of life is of paramount importance, is facing a threat to its tranquility.

A real-estate developer seeks to establish a monstrous shopping mall directly adjacent to the main entrance to the neighborhood. Emotions run high, the controversy generates daily fodder for the gossip beast, and many outsiders keep their fingers on the pulse, anxious to see how things will play out.

Both the developer and the community are observant Jews. What recourse does this community have according to halacha? Does the developer have the halachic right to develop? In what forum may the community litigate to prevent the development?

NJ Monthly article on Lakewood Online edition

City on Edge: Online version Lakewood’s demographic and cultural shift started toward the end of the last century. In 1990, Lakewood had about 45,000 residents; the town was depressed and considered something of a backwater. By 2000, the population had ballooned to more than 60,000. A decade later, the 2010 census reported that 92,843 people called Lakewood home. Today, most township officials put the population closer to 120,000. And with the ongoing increase estimated at 5,000 people per year, they project that by 2030, more than 220,000 people will live within Lakewood’s 25 square miles. That would make it the third largest city in the state, behind Newark and Jersey City. Read more Here at NJ Monthly Mag

Lakewood’s Blizzard That Wasn’t

Hamodia article by Mordechai Wincorn

LAKEWOOD - Despite dire predictions of a blizzard that most felt would surely cancel schools and grind the town to a near-halt, most Lakewood residents had a wet but mostly normal day on Tuesday as shifting weather patterns turned the snowstorm to a heavy rain accompanied by strong winds before dawn.

On similar occasions in the past, when predictions of heavy snow did not pan out, most students in the town were left without busing. On Tuesday, regular transportation for nearly all of the town’s mosdos came as a welcome change.

“I was pleasantly surprised. Not only did my sons have busing, but even the Shacharis bus made its pickups. I’m sure the kids were disappointed not to get the snow day they were waiting for, but it’s much better that they’re learning, and easier for everyone this way. It is certainly not what any of us expected,” said one father.

Levaya of Rebbetzin Lieba Sturman a"h mother of R' Yaakov, R' Sender, R' Chaim, R' Yossi, Will be at the Lakewood chapel on 7th Street 12:30 pm.

Mrs. Leiba Sturman, was a beloved teacher at Kosloff Torah Academy in Bala Cynwyd and TAGHS.

Amalek’s Kugel is an acronym for four kugels which together form the word Amalek.

A for apple or epel (the ayin)

M for flour, or mehl (the mem)

L for lukshen or noodles (the lamed)

K for kartofel(potatoes) the kuf.

In Europe and in other places Chassidim serve these four kugels on the Shabbos when Parshas Zachor is read and then they eat them thereby symbolically annihilating Amalek by eating him all

Purim news briefs Lakewood 5777

by Anony Mouse

Cheder on Wheels
A new cheder is opening in Lakewood its called "Cheder on Wheels", in Hebrew its called yeshivas אלה ברכב .The concept behind it is very simple,  said a spokesperson for the STLA "its no secret children in Lakewood are spending more time on the bus than in school". Its more practical to just have the Rebbe get on the bus and teach the kids. In some cases, the Rebbe also drives the bus. Lunch will be provided by Pizza on wheels. Parents are thrilled  with this concept and signing up their children, one of the benefits is there is no building fund. Its not an original idea though there has been cheder on wheels even in a building.

New supermarket opening in Lakewood
 Food for thought is coming to town
 B'H  Lakewood has no shortage of kosher supermarkets, but there is always room for those that have no room. Investors are catering to a niche market of customers who dont feel comfortable shopping with others in regular stores. They have phobias preventing them from shopping in public. The food for thought aisle is geared to those on diets that like to shop but cant bring home the food. The shmiras einayim aisle will make it easy for those who dont look up as the prices and items will be printed on the floor. The Kosher aisle will feature products that have no bugs no yoshon and under the approval from Rabbi Yudel shain these shelves will be empty most of the time.

Investigators hopeful to return cash to rightful owner
A large amount of cash was found this week at 3rd street and Clifton avenue, upon further investigation the money was found sometime right after a  nearby government meeting. It was unclear if the envelope was dropped on the way in to the meeting  or on the way out which will give a clue to who it belongs to.

Better accident pictures coming soon
With daily car accidents unfortunately, the social media sites are competing with each other  over who can provide the quickest news and close up image of a car accident. One site promises to have close up gory pictures of accident victims even before hatzolah arrives on the scene.

Shiur Klali now streaming live by First Amendmant Activist
After much success with broadcasting public meetings, Torah shiurim will now be live streamed to Lakewood homes but only on a kosher video platform. Viewers will be able to hock arein via skype but limited to 4 minutes.

First inappropriate advertisement rejected from the billboards
While the digital billboards are not a reality yet, the ads are already pouring in. A local resident took out  an add calling  on everyone  to vote out all incumbents, the ad was to have life like flashing pictures of all current govt board members. The ad was flatly rejected and deemed inappropriate..

Tent city now a option again
Soaring home prices,  high end luxurious homes, kollel guys feeling priced out of the market are having second thoughts about closing down tent city. Perhaps it would be an option to live simply and affordably, it would also be a true way of living in the אהלה של תורה

The President will inquire about the load us of building a imaginary wall with the hallachos of gud asik.  meeting will take place right before Pesach  he will be accompanied by Lakewood  reporter the שאינו יודע לשאול.

 Amazon to open  FBA center in Lakewood
Officials at Amazon said it only makes sense to open a strategic location in the Jersey shore town given the high amount of traffic, vendors and (returns) in the area. The high ranking Execs were given a tour of Lakewood including all botei midrashim, basements, and saw the UPS trucks make their rounds. They were intrigued by the uniqueness and entrepreneurship  in Lakewood. Eager to find a suitable place, it was suggested to sign a lease in the upcoming Cedarbridge mall. This is what we meant by Chesed stores said an askan involved with the deal.

A Year later reflecting on the speech
Looking back a philanthropist  clarified "when I spoke that we should build institutions in Lakewood i didn't mean supermarkets".

Large westgate style development coming to 14th street area

There is no safe place anymore, if developers have their way a new large development will be built on one of the last quiet areas of town. Local residents are outraged, as the area is known to be one of the quietest areas of Lakewood. Nestled among quiet blocks on the Northern shore the lake Carasaljo and GCU it is not zoned for even duplexes! Developers have quietly purchased properties along 14th street adjacent to the college and are in talks with university officials to buy large swaths of land from Forest Avenue stretching along 14th street to Case rd. They plan to parcel off these lots and put up a 500 unit rental development. The eastern entrance will be off Forest Avenue on one side and will come out on Case rd from the other side. Plans are to open up the dead ends along fourteenth street and make them through streets connecting to the proposed development. Some Lakewood residents feel the density in town should be spread equally and not only designated for the south side at Oak street.  As one resident put it "Its time the decision makers get a taste of what the rest of Lakewood goes through on a daily basis".

7 Adar a special day

7th of Adar today Sunday (March 5th) was the birth and passing of Moshe Rabainu ע"ה. and also the passing of Ester Hamalka ע"ה.  It is a day that has great segula for prayers. It is worthy to put a lot of effort into the tefillos on this day. It is fitting to light a candle in honor of the 2 tzadikim.
       Particularly to read chapter 22 in tehilim which Ester Hamalka ע"ה wrote when she besceeched Hash-m to flip the Mazel of the Jewish nation. We to today can ask Hash-m to flip our personal Mazel. And also if we feel we are in rot. And anything we feel is not going our way both in mundane things and in Holy matters.

Turx takes off Twitter Yarmulka, confirms flat tire story about Trump

In an interview with Kol Habira the newspaper of the greater Washington area, Jake Turx mentioned that he is retiring his now famous Jake Turx Twitter yarmulke and will replace it with a more traditional one. In the article Turx said he confirmed the story about Donald Trump paying off the mortgage of a Jewish man (Rumored to be a Lakewood youngerman) who stopped on a NJ highway when Trump had a flat Tire.
About the Yarmulka  "he was told that it may have helped him stand out and get called on by the president amongst the 40-plus hands that were up at the time and that it was an effective marketing tool for adding thousands of twitter followers. However, he was also advised that a more traditional yarmulke would be deemed more respectful when speaking to the president, so he ultimately has made the switch. And now for the flat Tire story.
