1d	comment	Stolen goods that rise in value at the time of theft -how does this effect compensation? mechon-mamre.org/i/b201.htm#10
1d	comment	Why is Jacob idolized and not villainised? @msh210 OJPS does not read like you. Note also the etnacta of the pasuk.
1d	comment	Can Gentile light a Shabbat Candle and do the Prayers? You might be interested in looking through our questions about gerut-conversion or gentiles
1d	revised	Can Gentile light a Shabbat Candle and do the Prayers? edited tags
1d	comment	Can Gentile light a Shabbat Candle and do the Prayers? If what you seek is guidance, you should ask a rabbi who knows you, not internet strangers.
1d	comment	Can a single-parent father be exempt from time-bound mitzvot? @meir That's a huge chiddush! Is clearly not true with regards tuma/tahara, and for tefilla it would be a huge huge chiddush.
1d	comment	Why do people say that Abraham and his family were idolaters at first? If you are looking for (external?) proof, you should specifcy what that entails. Do you want archaeological proof? Old manuscripts? etc.
1d	comment	Why do people say that Abraham and his family were idolaters at first? You are surprised that God chose someone who wasn't always religious?
1d	comment	Can a single-parent father be exempt from time-bound mitzvot? see judaism.stackexchange.com/q/28935/759
1d	revised	Who wrote the Piskei Tosfos? edited tags
1d	comment	Who wrote the Piskei Tosfos? Traditionally, it's the Tur, but apparently we don't really know.
1d	comment	May a man wear a wedding band? Plus R Moshe's position on this is rather strange. (though there are other opposers who are more cogent.)
2d	comment	Shiv'im Umeya - mi yodeya? mechon-mamre.org/i/1103.htm#10
2d	revised	Satmar Derech Halimud edited tags
2d	comment	Aruch Hashulchan's moon-distance estimate @IsaacMoses Good luck with that :) You'd also need to show that the AhS saw this publication.
2d	comment	Aruch Hashulchan's moon-distance estimate Interesting idea. What language does he use regarding the measurement to the moon?
2d	comment	Amen on the Telephone This happened to me today. I was on the phone with someone located a few blocks away, and lightening flashed, so I said a bracha into the phone which I was already talking into.
2d	comment	Cicadas - once in 17 years @IsaacMoses I'm much more interested in "Is [sic] there any Sefarim that discuss this phenomenon?" though I doubt it because it's mostly a North American thing.
2d	comment	Cicadas - once in 17 years I appreciate your effort, but this answer is futile. There are dozens of cycles that cicadas have. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodical_cicada#Broods There are different groups that pop up almost every year.
2d	comment	Can a single-parent father be exempt from time-bound mitzvot? @Shalom I'm not seeing discussion of synagogue or minyan in YD 239. The closest is a discussion of Torah reading in se'if 7 but that doesn't seem to really help us here.
