A family with 9 kids had a flood in their house and is desperately looking for a temporary place to rent. Furnished is best even if there are not enough beds but if needed they will work it out to get their own. If you have any leads please PM me and I will pass it on. Tizku limitzvos.

Originally when I moved to my house the only available internet was Optimum. Recently it seems that I can now get Verizon. My internet has been slow recently with optimum and Verizon is offering me a deal of $45 a month for home phone and internet which is half of what I pay optimum.
Anyone have experience with Verizon LTE home internet?
Any reason not to switch?

So you're recommending he visit 200+ yeshivas in the tristate area and 100+ out of town?

I wish. I think that the online platforms like TorahAnytime somewhat took over that field, even though it's not really comparable.

However, there are usually such shiurim happening on a regular basis, albeit not under the umbrella of a single organization or location. If you are a little savvy, you may be able to make a pretty solid schedule of shiurim, which would include the following:

BMG has guest speakers on a regular basis. You may need someone inside to keep you updated on events.
Rav Gershon Ribner gives really interesting vaadim regularly, open to the public IINM.
Rav Shmuel Felder and Rav Yaakov Ephraim Forschheimer give shiurim regularly, not sure the time and place.
Hefkervelt occasionally posts shiurim locations for interesting shiurim.
Chayeinu hosts live shmuessen from time to time, I think you can sign up for their emails and find out about them ahead of time.
I'm sure there are numerous others that I'm missing, perhaps others here can chime in.

Again, it's not the same as consistent shiurim in a single location, but it is pretty often and shouldn't be too hard to compile a list for yourself.

Probably BW Liquidators if has what you want.

I found that the Jewish stores are better value in most cases but some sales may be better. They are also more helpful in finding what is really the quality product. On the other hand my experience is that you should be firm about getting a name brand.
