For the record, Rav Brandsdorfer wrote that *one* neighborhood in Beit Shemesh should read the megillah on the 15th as well due to the safek. He didn't say that all of Beit Shemesh should do that, and certainly not that they should only celebrate Shushan Purim as in Yerushalayim.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to disappoint some 'Israelis' but the whole case for 15th in almost all cities in EY is הבל
ReplyDeletethere was a קונטרס published by an American talmid chochum some 15 or so years ago, regarding קרית ספר, that conclusively demonstrating the baselessness of the arguments to lain on 15
i think it was called אגרת השנית or something like that
before anyone starts commenting yerushalim... chazon ish.. etc i'd advise you to first somehow get hold of that קונטרס and learn it
I think you mean the ספיקא דמוקפין about Modi'in.
DeleteRead it here https://hebrewbooks.org/57201
Ramat bet shemesh 4 is or might be somech vinereh to תל ירמות which might've had walls 3300 years ago. That's the question. There might a letter from rav chaim shlita that says to be noheg safek over on the 15th.

The organizers
When is this site, from the few lakewood news sites that actually post real news going to a secure website?? Step up from a blog to a real news site
ReplyDeletehv is the best site for lakewood hands down! and we're very happy with this format
Deleteno need for any changes
I think it's perfect as is without making headlines and articles out of every sentence. Just everything as is.
DeleteAlso if they become a website they might start correcting all the typos and spelling mistakes and from there they might think they have to be all politically correct and then that's the end of it all.
"The official LPD statement on the fatal car crash in Lakewood made no mention of the speed factor despite a surveillance video showing the car driving at a higher than usual rate on Madison Ave."
ReplyDeleteExcuse me the person who was driving that car I believe is still living, it is very unfair for you decide how many miles an hour the car was going from a CCTV you saw online. There was no speedtracker on that video. It is bad enough what that driver has to live with, let alone allegations which you have no proof to.
The speed limit on Madison is 40 MPH, you cannot tell from a video, if the car was going above that, let alone at that time of the morning you rarely could go faster than that.
That corner is really hard to make a left turn, the light is very short & cycles real fast, there is no turning light, always trafic comming head on.
It is usually quicker to go to the next block turn on Clifton & come back.
I have waited numerous times to turn over there.
One must learn from this, not blame others for speeding (unfounded), not blamme smart phones & tznius.
It is time for our manhigim to explain people a car needs a lisecense, the same way a gun does. when you drive a car, and just once in a rush try to save a minute, you may be responsible for lives. I have also been cut off on that corner ( & many others, sometimes even by laden school buses) I had the siyatta Dishmaya to slow down without getting rear ended or swerving onto other trafic.
Please learn from this let it be a tikun to the neshoma, drive menschlech keep the rules. & NEVER I REPEAT, never cut infront of another driver in a way you force the other driver to slow down, no matter how much over the speed limit you think they are driving.They may not expect you & may not have good brakes oer brakes which work well in rain etc.
When I learned driving the first rule the instructor taught was never take advantage, that means just because the other driver signalled , & slowed down, that doesn;'t mean they will turn, so you don't turn until the other driver has made the turn, over here it is even more appropriate.
I know everyone myself included is pained by this loss of life, and is being melamed zchus on the niftar, but pleasse don't shift blame to someone who already has to live with this death. Obviously the police determined that the other driver wasn't speeding by the skid marks. By justifying that turn, you are telling everyone that you are Ok with others making that type of turn. I am not OK with that. Please never justify dangerous driving underany circumstances, and especially not on public forum.
This is sad enough, don't make it worse for the survivor.
JMHO.
You are entitled to your own opinion.
Maybe people should be mekabel to drive safely liluy nishmoso.That will also cause less chillul Hashem.
In other words blame the dead because he doesn't have to 'live" with it

Excuse me, ranter,
DeleteThere were car parts that flew 250 feet due to the impact. I think the motor or tha axle was found in the cemetery on that corner. Somebody was going way too fast. Period. And it wasn’t the Yumgerman A”H ad he was simply making a left turn.
In the video footage the car came BOMBING down route 9 like a crazed out lunatic. The Yid z”l had already completed most of his turn when the meshiganeh hit him.
DeleteIn 2016, as Trump claimed the Republican nomination for president, the GOP originally wrote a platform that was to call for providing Ukraine with weapons in addition to the substantial nonlethal aid the U.S. already provides, news outlets reported at the time. After Trump surrogates reportedly intervened, the final passage supported "providing appropriate assistance" to Ukraine, but didn't mention providing arms to the government in Kiev, the Los Angeles Times reported. PolitiFact found there was evidence that Trump’s campaign was involved in making the change.
ReplyDeleteLess baseless then you surmise
