Tech Talk / Website Recovery

« on: May 13, 2015, 07:55:41 AM »

Is there a way to recovery the website? We have not manually backed it up.

Does anyone know what the earliest Halachic source for prohibiting music listening during Sefira? The Mishna B'rura doesn't mention it so it must be more recent.
