Incredible Moment! Rabbi Michel Chill, a longtime educator from Monsey, New York, was slated to take a flight with his family heading from New York to Los Angeles.
Inclement weather delayed the flight for three hours. The pilot spotted the Rabbi and invited him into the cockpit to learn the daily quota of Talmud with him as they waited for a slot for takeoff.
Looks like Charles (Shalom?) Dadoun. I think he flies for UA.Article in Mishpacha about Charlie Dadoun.. by Eytan Kobre. The above story is mentioned...

On The Road / Re: Combining IHG hotel reservations
« on: April 22, 2019, 12:34:03 PM »Hi,You can call the hotel to combine it, they'll possibly do it automatically if it's reserved under the same name.. if not then by check-in they'll do it for u
I was wondering, if I have 2 reservations on Holiday Inn (Free Anniversary nights) for a total of 2 days (one from each account) - is it possible to combine them somehow to a single reservation?
Thanks!

« on: April 17, 2019, 11:14:03 PM »One of the main (if not the main) point of his speech was that the organizers of this event then went ahead and photoshopped the kol Korah and it was a big bizayon.Highly unlikely.
Is that true? Any shmoe probably went ahead and did this. Why make out the organizers as servants of the yetzer horah? And that this whole thing was one 'egel hazahav'?
He was very upset about the Maacha and the cops as well etc.. from what I hear it only became a matzav/ the crowd grew exponentially after the cops were called (by a certain person והמבין יבין)
..besides what makes him think the organizers of the event arranged the kumzitz... (It seemed from the videos like a mob mentality more then anything else not something you can blame a specific person..)
Being that there were differences of opinions and even changed opinions reportedly because of pressure, a real explanation is due.. not just a "you gotta believe" especially today that sadly Rabbinim are fed all sorts of information...
His explanation that in the future it's gonna be a mixed concert...
Regarding that such a thing has never happened in Klal Yisroel.. um for the last (10?) years this has been going on in EY under the name kumzing or kumtantz.. iiuc with the bracha and support of R Aron Leib.. (besides for R Meilich Beiderman, R Mota Frank's kumzitzin)

« on: April 15, 2019, 05:14:10 PM »Not sure that's easily doable. But I'm not so sure that should be publicized on such a platform.Your probably right..
How long is the clip?It's a 13 min clip.. basically it seems there was meetings between the rabbis and organizers.. there was alot of different opinions among the different roshei yeshiva.. some were pressured to change they're mind some didn't.. the organizers made the event with his permission etc of his rosh yeshiva... The organizers weren't really given a chance to explain and find out what false information was being spread about the event..
just summarize it
What I don't get is this has been going on for years in EY with strong support of R Aron Leib and many other Roshei Yeshiva, what could have possibly been different especially with the attendance of R Yehuda Jacobs and R Slomovitz before he was pressured out of it...
ETA whoever wants you can pm me for the clip

There's a audio clip of a phone call going around on WhatsApp between one of the organizers and one of the destructors (for lack of better word)..
It'll shed alot of of light on the situation..
what's the best way to upload it?
