Noach – A Flood of Complaints
Breishis 7:6 “ …and the flood waters were upon the face of the earth.”
Rav Avrohom Abish Feld the great Rav in
was once faced with a very unenviable decision to make. The members
of the Shul suspected that the Chazan was lax in his observance of
Mitsvos and the board had decided to replace him. The Chazan came to
plead with the Rav to overturn their decision.
“My dear Rav” he began “You of all people know how effective my
Tefillos are in Shamayim! When I davened Tefillas Geshem (the prayer
for rain) on Shemini Atzeres, scarcely had I uttered the words when rain
appeared!”
R' Abish recoginized the arrogance of the chazan and his unsuitability
for the position.
“Yes my dear chazan I know,” responded Rav Abish. “But you know
that you are not the first to have these powers. There were others who
were equally effective at bringing the rain and they were called the
“Dor Hamabul” – the generation of the Flood!”

Mishne Brura: Since today it is very common to make lemon juice, it is prohibited to squeeze lemons on Shabbos for drinking.
It is permitted to squeeze fruit (even grapes and olives) onto a solid food.
Shmiras Shabbos: Most of the juice must be absorbed into the food for this leniency to apply.
Most Poskim prohibit squeezing lemon into tea (apparently, even when the lemon is submerged and the juice is never a separate entity.
Most authorities permit to squeeze the lemon onto sugar (so that it is absorbed), and then add the sugar to the water or tea.
One may also put a lemon slice into a drink or into tea that is not too hot (less than 113° F or in a Kli Shlishi) without squeezing.
Have a wonderful Shabbos!!

Breishis – Made in Heaven
Breishis
A young man from the
his Beshert. He came to Eretz Yisroel in order to pray at the burial sites of
some of the great people who had passed away. One day as he was visiting
the grave of R' Aharon the Belzer Rebbe on Har Menuhos, a strong wind
suddenly blew his hat off his head. When he finally caught up with it, some
way off, he noticed that a Kvittel (note) had somehow also blown into his hat.
He intended to return it to the grave side of the Belzer Rebbe but his eye
caught the fact that it was written in English:
“I daughter of so and so from city such and such am looking to find my
proper mate. Please help me find him."
He told his parents what had happened and they decided to call the girl’s
parents.
In a short while the young couple became engaged.

Shulchan Aruch: If you are uncertain whether you Bentched, and you ate enough to be satiated, you should Bentch. There is a question whether a woman who is uncertain if she already Bentched should do so now. It is better that she not Bentch out of doubt.
The most widely held position seems to be that the satiation need not come only from the quantity of bread. However you must have ate at least a K’zayit of bread.
Have a wonderful Shabbos!!
