Topic Wiki

If your video is not embedding, see if your link starts with "http:" - if it does, change it to "https:" and it will work.

If a video isn't embedded you should assume it may be inappropriate for some people.

How do I embed a Youtube video?
Simply post the YouTube URL.
Alternately (actually, this may no longer work):
Click the "youtube" button on the second row on the furthermost left side.
You will now have the words: [youtube][/youtube] in your editor.
Now, copy and paste the youtube video id (youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0&x=y) in between the middle brackets in order for it to look like this:
    [youtube]oHg5SJYRHA0[/youtube]
and leave out this part of the link: "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v="

Or you can paste the YouTube link, highlight it, and then click on the "YouTube" button. This will encase the link in the youtube tags,
Now just click "post" and you're done!


How can I search if a video has been posted here before?
This is not foolproof, but it's a good start.
Search for the youtube ID (youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0)

Not sure if you realize how true that is.
"The eruv was set up specifically excluding ball playing."

Is there more?

Good for him. Now the kids learned how important kovod shabbos is.
No they didn't learn anything. If he was half a man he would have offered to chaperone the shabbos. Instead he follows the age old Jewish tradition of banning events. Because bans are easy to enforce and dont require much effort.

It was the possibility that they may do it. Not an actual plan to do it.

And if you're waiting until the last shabbos of the 8th grade year to teach them lessons in kovod shabbos, you've failed at the one job you had.

You mean there was no chaperone? I see many more reasons than playing ball.

It was at one of the boys summer home in Monsey with his parents present. I meant on the part of the yeshiva. Who sends 13 year old boys away to spend a shabbos together without adults? 8 boys prepared leining amongst themselves. But the possibility of playing ball negates any work put in. I get it.

Who sends? Unfortunately too many.

Why wouldn't the parents saying they would ensure no ball playing do the trick? Sounds like there may be more to the story.

Sounds like the menahel is an idiot. On second thought...i know he is. The lengths and conspiracies you concoct to excuse poor chinuch are astonishing.

Okay so there is more to the story in that you have previous issues with the menahel. In that case all calls are off.

He would learn at a table on his porch where he could see right into our driveway. So long as he was out there, ball playing was off limits.
If you don't care why would you comment?

Interesting to hear the sales pitch.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Love it. As a numbers guy I would appreciate if all ads would talk dollars and percents :)

Chasing money. Literally.

But actually not a bad idea... 🤑
