No Credit Cards For Get­-Refusers

An explanatory note to the bill notes that botei din have stopped get refusers from using checks since 1995. But since then, checks are barely used and most purchases are made with credit cards.

Mazal Tov! Chuck Schumer's Daughter Marries A "Shiksa"

The question all frum Jews are asking: 

Was Ezra (the Kapo) "Tuchis Lekker" Friedlander invited? 

If he was there did he get a bracha.

Alison Schumer, the younger of Sen. Chuck Schumer’s two daughters, married Elizabeth Weiland on Sunday in Brooklyn, with the couple posing for wedding photos on a bridge over the toxic Gowanus Canal.

The white-dress-clad lovebirds, each clutching a mixed bouquet — with Alison Schumer wearing shoes as green as the Superfund site below them — held hands and shared a tender glance on the rust-flecked Union Street Bridge, which has become a popular backdrop for photos.

Starting at around 10 a.m., the pair posed for several snaps along the tree-lined bridge before heading inside the nearby Green Building event space to exchange vows in a brief, intimate ceremony at around noon.

Passengers Say EL AL Lied About Charedi Violence On Flight From NY

Passengers on the nightmare El Al flight from New York to Tel Aviv on Thursday night have accused the airline of lying and of a “kidnap” after a five-hour delay in taking off meant that the plane could not reach Israel before Shabbat began.

Despite El Al’s initial statement alleging that haredi fliers had been violent, numerous passengers stated subsequently that there had been no violence at all, with many blaming the late arrival of the cabin crew to the airport for the severe delay and failure to reach Israel on time.

Flight LY002 was scheduled to leave New York’s JFK Airport at 6:30 p.m. local time Thursday and arrive in Israel on Friday afternoon. But due to snow storms and the failure of the El Al cabin staff to arrive on time at the airport, the flight ended up leaving more than five hours later.

Shortly before the plane took off, religious passengers began to request stridently to disembark since they realized that the flight would continue into the Sabbath on Friday evening, a violation of Jewish religious law.

El Al claimed that “a group of haredim” requested to get off the plane and “exercised heavy and violent pressure against the cabin crew” in seeking to disembark, and alleged that this caused further delays in taking off.

I’m one of those ‘violent’ religious passengers on El Al #002

From

Betsalel Steinhart

I am writing this as a response to the articles posted on the news and social media of violence on El Al 002 from JFK.

I was on that flight and as I type this, I am in Athens airport waiting to board my 11:30 p.m. flight back to Tel Aviv. (Which is another point: Why cannot they get a flight earlier? We all have to work tomorrow and will not get back until 2 a.m.!)

I am not Haredi, just a religious man who keeps Shabbat, and neither were most of the 200 of us who got off the plane in Athens rather than desecrate Shabbat. Maybe 20 percent Haredi at most.

Chabad here were fantastic and a potentially horrible Shabbat was memorable.

I did not see any violence on the flight after the captain announced the change of destination, although clearly I wasn’t watching every part of the plane all the time. If there was, then that is inexcusable.

I saw: disappointment, anger, raised voices, for sure.

Understandably. We all had plans for Shabbat. None of us wanted to be in Athens.

However: El Al, take responsibility for your actions. You were the problem here:

Now That the Litvishe Party "Degel" Won Elections .. Yeshivah Boys and Girls Dance In the Same Room Without a Mechitzah To Celebrate

The above video depicts Yeshiva guys celebrating the secular Leon as the new mayor of Yerushalyim .... with girls dancing in the same room without a mechitzah..

G-D forbid if  this happened at a wedding ... The Rosh Yeshivah would 

throw them head first out of the yeshivah..

So I ask ... is it ok for the girls to go to the army now

 Now watch how Chaim Walder the face of the Litvishe Party Degel dances around the newly 

elected secular Mayor of Haifa

After watching both videos both the Boys and the girls can go to the army ...

"A Korban of a Child" 

The mishnah on this daf states that if a child should bring a sacrifice then the mitzvah of "Smicha (leaning)" is not performed.

But when does a child ever brings a korban? 

A child is not obligated in performing any mitzvois and if he wishes to bring a korban, we do not accept it?

Commentaries explain that there are cases that this can indeed occur ....

A child whose father died and who while he was alive designated an animal for a korban and before he had a chance to fulfill his mitzvah he died ... the son even if he is only a  child is obligated to fulfill his late father's wishes and offer this sacrifice.

Commentaries add another situation.....

in a case where the child is a "metzorah" afflicted with leprosy, in that case once he gets healed, his father can offer a sacrifice on his behalf.
