Note that RSRH is conspicuously absent.

To my mind, a yekkishe shul without TIDE or at least some variant of German-Jewishness is no different than a Yemenite shul. An interesting phenomenon of Judaic exotica.

[Fwd: The Pallisades Parkway]



-------- Original Message --------
Subject: The Pallisades Parkway
Date: Sun, 17 Jun 2007 14:02:13 +1000
From: SBA <sba@sba2.com>
To: areivim <areivim@aishdas.org>


>From a Satmar HP forum:  Subject: The Pallisades Parkway Drive safely and have a good summer. ********************************************************************** I am offering you a note of warning and if you care to share this  information with your friends, it could be helpful to them as well.  When you drive on the Pallisades Interstate Parkway between New York and  Monsey, do not go above 65 and ALWAYS stay in the right lane. Recently my  dear husband got a ticket for speeding?and I'd like to enlighten you as to  what happens:  1. The cops on this stretch have NO compassion whatsoever -- they are  stopping you for a reason and that is to give you a ticket and make sure  their Alpine area pulls in as much money as possible from these fines. ? 2. When you go on the designated day for your ticket to be heard, you will  be amongst 200! other people who got stopped for some traffic infraction.? 3. You will wait. They hear people's not guilty issues until 10! at night. ? 4. You have no choice but to wait. ? 5. If you hire a lawyer, you will go first but you will not get off -- all  the ppl who had hired lawyers were the proud recipients of a judgment of  $380 (100 fine 30 court fees and 250 for the infraction) to be paid  immediately,?in addition, of course, to paying your lawyer's fee! (ouch). ? 6. You will wait -- the judge takes a break during the guilty and not  guiltys. ? 7. You will wait again because the judge takes a dinner break! ? 8. The cops sit by and watch the unsuspecting people squirming in their  seats. ? 9. There were only two cases that were dismissed. If you'd like to know  which ones, ask i'll tell. 10. With pleading guilty and a good excuse (and a good clean driving record)  you will "get off" with a quick fine of $95 to $105 (so   sweet!). 11. If you have a Jersey license, you will get points and a lowered fine or  a higher fine ($380) and no points. 12. If you have a New York License, you get no points (I repeat NO points  are transferred from New Jersey to New York). 13. If you do not show up for this ticket on the designated date, you will  get arrested the next time you are stopped because an arrest warrant is in  place for you with bail already set at this courtroom. 14. End of the day I am here to tell you DONT SPEED ON THE PIP -- they have  no compassion.? Within one hour they took in $380 every five minutes -- I  heard it and saw it with my own eyes. 15. By the way, my husband got off with a guilty and a low fine because he  had a good excuse. 16. Save the time for yourself rather than sit in this stone house at the  end of the road! You'll do yourself a favor. Don't say I didn't warn you. Please pass this on to your friends -- especially your Monsey friends. http://bh.hevre.co.il/forum/topic.asp?topic_id=2226046

The Netziv Story

I think this is a negative story.


Its disastrous implication is that "not gifted students" should never opt for a career track, because perhaps they can be Gedolim, just like the Netziv.


It is the most anti-TIDE story I know, but even more so, enough to impose an eternal guilt trip on so many people who would actually do well to seek a profession and be neheneh me'yegi'a kapeihem.

From: Boruch Horowitz
Quoting Dr. Levine,

"He came out of his room and said to me, "Abba. Finally someone who is
human." I asked him what he meant. He replied, "In this book it says that
the Netziv was not a gifted student, and, when he was a teenager, his
parents considered taking him out of yeshiva and having him taught a trade.
All of the other books talk about people who are geniuses and perfect. Here
is someone who is real!"

That was my reaction to "My Uncle the Netziv" as well. I think the
informal, first person, style also contributes to the sense of reality. R.
Baruch Epstein certainly comes across as human, himself, in his memoirs.

Bloglines - two versions of what orthodoxy is all about

Bloglines user ygb (ygbechhofer@gmail.com) has sent this item to you, with the following personal message:

From my BIL's blog.


Divrei Chaim
Divrei Torah & assorted musings on life.

two versions of what orthodoxy is all about

By Chaim B.

I think one of the keys questions that affect a person's religious practice can be summed up with a chakira: is a jew someone who is like everyone else except where restricted by ritual laws have to be obeyed, or is a jew someone with a unique set of values, attitudes, and behaviors which happen to coincide under some circumstances with Western values? The teenagers who get together for a pick-up basketball game in shorts and T-shirts on Shabbos or the adults who will vacation at a beach or a Las Vegas casino while making sure to eat kosher food I think view their religiosity based on the first tzad of the chakira. What determines whether an action is acceptable is whether one can point to a specific se'if in shulchan aruch that prohibits something (and even so, apparently some people think not all dinim in shulchan aruch are created equal), and if not, what is OK in secular society is by default OK for the Jew. The second tzad looks at things very differently. It's not about whether there is a specific prohibition against something, but about whether a particular action or desire is for the sake of avodas Hashem or not. Halacha is not a collection of technical restrictions that impinge on a "normal" lifestyle, but halacha becomes a guide to a mindset that has completely different goals, values, and aspirations than what passes for "normal" in our society. One of the problems I have encountered in dealing with coreligionists who fall into tzad #1 of the chakira or who are non-religious is that they simply do not understand that those of us who aspire or try to live our lives by the tzad #2 approach. Decisions about what is permitted or prohibited are viewed through a completely different mindset (and again, this issue is especially hard to deal with when the other people are family members). When asked "Where does it say X is prohibited" or confronted with the observation "…But I see lots of frum people with yalmukahs there" how is one supposed to respond? There is no short and simple answer because the question presupposes a different framework of religious. Has anyone else confronted this problem?
