That bill, however, remains locked in the Senate, meaning Daylight Saving Time will end as regularly scheduled to the disappointment of many Americans.'"

Really compelling
ReplyDeleteis the ADL monitoring the hate crimes in NYC? A frum woman runs the show in NYC
ReplyDeleteDon’t worry, Satmar’s good friend Mamdani will make sure they throw the book at the attacker… No doubt about it!
Delete"An urgent plea from HaRav Moshe Hillel Hirsch shlita The Rosh Yeshiva pours out his heart "
ReplyDeleteThe RY said that he knows that those supporting the other party have issues, complaints etc, but...
Ironically many, especially the Anglos, want to be able to send their children to the type of school Rav Moshe Hillel attended, an American high school!
He seems to have turned out okay!
I support American type high schools but Rav Moshe Hillel Hirsch is hardly a proof of that. I'm sure a decent percent of his high school class ended up as complete am haaratzim. Or worse. (This is also not an argument the other way either. I'm sure a decent percent of his high school class had parents who were barely frum and no one ever expected too much more from them to begin with. IOW it is an apples to oranges comparison)
DeleteAmerican yeshiva HS does not apply.
DeleteMarrying the RY's daughter does.
(That's OK, his father-in-law also married the RY's daughter.)
By the way, his BIL runs an American style HS.
Have to import a mohel to Lakefront.
DeleteOh sure, it’s so easy to marry a Rosh Yeshiva’s daughter when the shidduch comes with a future shteller. If you’re reading this, it’s a safe bet that you would never even have been in the running.
DeleteWas definitely in the running to marry Rabbonim's daughters. Turned them all down. Probably to my regret.
DeleteI'm 604 -- actually, I dated my RY's daughter. Maybe I should have followed up, instead of the woman I ended up with.
DeleteAnyway, the RY's daughter passed away about 10-15 years ago. And none of her brothers inherited the job, but her husband ended up on payroll.

ReplyDeleteThe point is that the idea that if you learn anything besides Torah you can't become a talmid chachom / gadol, is a myth.
Everyone in Lakewood, including the Roshei Yeshiva , over 30 went to high school.
Did they have a problem following Rav Landau's shiurim?
Ponovezh yeshiva the supreme court heard an appeal today by the Rav Markowitz faction A Judge Grosskopf ruled:
ReplyDeleteCan anyone explain how the two sides of the most respected Yeshiva in the world are in the (anti Torah) supreme court instead of a Bais Din?
Here is what I understand but I'm not in the coffee room enough to actually know so you can be sure this is NOT accurate. Just an idea. At first they went for binding arbitration that according to most poskim that I'm aware say can be done out of Beis Din or by non-Jews (ask your Rav first before you go that route!) After binding arbitration became something enforceable by the secular courts the secular courts were then appealed to that they (the secular courts ) do not enforce the ruling, Nor for a decision between the two sides. Don't ask any kashes on this because as I said above I don't know what I'm talking about . It is just a ballpark explanation
DeleteNo bet din would take such a case, they'll be yelled at forever whatever psaq they give.
DeleteActually, they finally agreed on a bet din, and the losing side just ignored the psaq, forcing secular court decision.
Just like in USA
Rav Finkel z"l attended Arie Crown . (Rav Malkiel attended Betzallel. Also coed. It was the only school in town.)
DeleteBy the way, RMHH will be coming to US Nov 10.
Because by the lot and MONEY & KAVOD come first, then Torah!
