YW Moderator-72

I prefer the pareve cholent from Eli’s Bagels and Pizza Garden in Spring Valley.

if your card has a radio frequency ID chip in it – all the information can be stolen. my card was attempted to be used in Delaware while also being used in NY (properly). have your bank issue a card without the RFID chip or you can locate the chip and punch it out with a hole puncher. to destroy the chip put it in a microwave for 10 seconds. you can google how to do this.

alternatively you can by a protective sleeve for the card but you would still be vulnerable each time you take it out to pay for something.

I had a friend that went to camp and those that went with him came from all backgrounds – Yeshivish, Chassidish, non-religious and everything in-between.

The only thing they had in common was that they were Jews when they entered the camp. Upon leaving the camp – they had 2 things in common – 1) they were still Jews and 2) they had either no or very few relatives left.

They were all of different backgrounds yet they shares bunkhouses and bunkbeds. Sadly, many of them shares the same “showers”.

Eli’s Bagels and Pizza Garden in Monsey! They serve brick-oven Pizza with a nice thin crust. and they have a GREAT counter worker.

I am having this again on September 8, 2040, when I am having 01/01/01 on Rosh haShono 5801.

Rosh HaShana will be 07/01/01. Rosh Chodesh Nissan will be 01/01/01. Wolf – I’m surprised you didn’t post the correction.

Health – Happy Birthday til 120plus in the best of health and circumstances!

…well the folks at the farm did the right thing – shouldn’t that have stopped Sandy in her tracks according to your premise that last year it was approved and a storm happened?

who keeps screaming? you’re waking me up!

“I guess they are impressed with s/o who puts down others on a constant basis.”

I guess if this was true you would be voted poster of the week, month and year by the esteemed CR posters.

I’m still of the opinion you should seek medical information from a known medical professional and not from this or other non-reliable medical blogs.

With that said, I use the mayo clinic website as my first stop in online medical advice/knowledge shopping – but I rely on my Doctors for the actual treatment programs and to clarify all questions that I may have.

I think that this blog can be used as a support group for individuals seeking others going through similar situations to discuss various associated issues.

there is the diabetes support group, Celiac just started. there was one for clubfoot another for depression…

I have enough confidence in the readers and posters in this blog that they know how to search reliable sites and when to ask a known medical professional and not to rely on any medical advice given here.

“What I did to my kids during the “terrible twos” & sometimes these “terrible twos” last to 4-6 years of age – I’d hold them down and pour the medicine into their mouth. So what is to stop them from spitting it out? Simply, because as soon as I poured it in – I squeezed both sides of the mouth together.”

talk about traumatizing children. This sounds like abuse to me!

“A good portion of the bloodshed lies squarely on the hands of the Tzionim. They Raitzed on the Goyim by making a Medina -thereby increasing their hatred and subsequently their violence ten-fold!”

… and with that he has squarely aligned himself with Mahmaoud’s Rebbi and the rest of the nk because as everyone knows the goyim LOVED the Jews throughout the time when we were exiled up until November 1947. They adored us. They held us in the highest esteem and hardly ever bothered us throughout the ages. When they did pester us – it was always against the Zionist element and not against the rest of the Yidden. Countries welcomed us with open arms and made us feel right at home…

I for one am sick of the argument that the Zionist is the cause of the hatred that the goyim have for Jews. I guess the concept of esav hates Yaakov means nothing to the health and the rest of his ilk. face it health and the rest of the nk – esav hates us. They hate: chareidim, Litvish, MO, non-observant, Zionists and anti-zionists. They don’t care about our style of dress or type of head covering we wear.

The entire portion of the bloodshed lies with those that are committing the terrorist attacks against the Yidden and for you to call yourself a G-d fearing and righteous Jew and blame the death of arab killed Jews on Jews is reprehensible.

Go ahead and post your rebuttal – I won’t read it and I encourage all others of the fine and wonderful posters here to not read it and to stop responding to your nonsense.

a sticker would [usually? always?] mean that there has been a separate run or different supervision. It’s just cheaper than producing different packaging.

Regarding sticker hechsherim.

The way to know what added KASHRUS benefit the sticker provides to the kosher consumer is to ask the name printed on the sticker. You’d be surprised at how often the answer is NOTHING. Often, it is nothing more than a marketing strategy.

Caveat Emptor.

chocandpatience –> not correct

apushatayid –> correct

I did something similar to this a few Purims ago. I saw a sticker on a box without a hechscher. Other candies from that company had a hechscher. I called the company and asked who gives the kosher certification and they told me. I asked about the name on the sticker and they told me they never heard of him. I called the Rav who gives the hechsher and asked him if the other Rabbis give a hechsher to this Company and he told me that as far as he knows only he does and no other Hechsher agency has contacted him nor has the “sticker” rabbi. I asked about the boxes without his hechsher if they were kosher and he sent me a complete list. it turns out that the “sticker” Rabbi put his sticker on products under kosher supervision and were 100% kosher – but he never did anything more than check the websites (if he even did that) to ascertain their kosher status. Note: back then some of the items that this candy company produces is not kosher and contains dyes from non-kosher sources – I do not know about now.

So why will people rely on the “sticker” Rabbi and not on the Rav who actually did and continues to do all the work?

“i dont think Health is that off. (besides for the fact that he does have more medical knowledge than most of us).”

______________________________________________

yes according to health (and now you) he is the medical gadol hador – but truth be told: to real Doctors – what is he?

_________________________________________

Note to health: As I have said before – I have nothing against you and IRL you are probably a very nice person. your screen persona (as many have pointed out) comes across as a know-it-all, pompous individual who looks down on those who dare disagree or post against you. Many people feel uncomfortable with your posting style. try toning it down a bit and other posters will have less trouble with how you say things (they may still object to what you say – but that is life in the blogosphere). go ahead have the last word.

ZeesKite when I saw your post I had to comment – my email was mechalel Shabbos this past Shabbos – but I wasn’t

Last Friday at around 10:30PM someone hacked my email and sent out an email to everyone in my address book. (if anyone here got it – sorry). when friends and family saw it they new I was hacked because of when it went out. Someone from Israel was the first to notice and he emailed me back on a different email account to let me know.

sounds like popa_bar_abba should change his name to popeye_bar_abba!

“Where did I not judge up anybody L’caf Zecus including Diabetics?”

To nechomah: “Since you claim to be well educated, (which could be true, but I’m not so sure)”

not exactly what an honest person would call giving the benefit of the doubt – in reality this one line uproots your claim to do so.

and being as you asked

Does your wife and others (family, friends) constantly tell you how funny you are? If they do, that’s their opinion, Not Mine!

the answer is constantly tell me: NO! Frequently? NO. A bunch of times in the course of the year? NO! Once every so often? perhaps. Many times they laugh at my jokes, quips and humorous stories (many times – not all times. Even Johny Carson didn’t get a laugh every time but at least he had an applause and laugh monitor for his audience). YES, they really do – sorry I am not going to post a video as proof. you will have to trust me that they do – but if you want to doubt it – fine by me – I will still sleep well. Yes, it is there opinion that I am a humorous person and not yours – but it is their opinion that counts in my life and Not Yours (caps to match your caps)! (note: this was not a personal attack just a statement of fact – even if you cannot google it).

I am sure that your spouse and family consider you the gadol hador in the health sciences world. I am sure that they view you as a kind, compassionate, caring and warm person. Perhaps IRL you come across that way because perhaps IRL you are – I haven’t a clue. My concern is the way you come off here in cyber-world and that you make people feel (very) uncomfortable.

You were given some good advice up there (even if it wasn’t googled from a valid medical website – one with the health hecksher). Perhaps you should think about it and follow it.

Everything you state as fact is nothing more than your opinion. It’s funny how you can judge other posters here and their knowledge base from their posts without even knowing them. I guess you have a sixth sense from being a being a CPR trainer and a student of health sciences (and a google cut and paste expert – note: I had to include that).

Did you ever hear of the Jewish concept of being Dan L’caf Z’cus? Esp. since you never saw any of the posters on the diabetes thread or this thread as real patients?!!

health, english please? i’m pretty sure most ppl have no clue what you just posted”

…and what makes you think health understands it? ust like health, I can google, cut and paste all sorts of things and not necessarily understand it.

health to Nechomah: “Sorry to say, I don’t feel that you are very educated.”

mod-72(retired) to health: NOT sorry to ask – are you as arrogant in self-serving in real life as you come off here in the CR? it is a good thing that you are only a “student of health sciences” and not an actual medical practitioner because your pompous attitude would not lead to a good bedside manner.

no problem. come on over – I have a bottle in the freezer!

squeak – I would have to go back and search the threads. the post you referenced was one that I had in mind. the other comments must be in a different thread. truth be told – it isn’t worth it for me to look it up.

Charlie Brown – my guess is that you are no longer a Yeshiva guy and you spent the past several hours washing all the Shabbos dishes and scrubbing the cholent pot… and then you had a few minutes to post

you asked a true/false question. not an open ended “what is your opinion of…” question

I hope you got or will get the advice that you are seeking
