1)ย ย ย ย  In Tehilim #37 there are verses beginning with each of the ื-ื‘ in sequence, with the exception of the letter ืข. Why was that letter omitted?[1] 2)ย ย ย ย Our Beis Chabad has a set time for Friday-night Maariv. Due to the fast this Friday, may I make Kiddush and break my fast before Maariv?[2] 3)ย ย ย ย Purim this year is on a Friday. Would we be allowed to start our communal Purim meal close before Shabbos, pause for candle-lighting, and then continue with Kiddush & Lechem Mishne and the Shabbos meal?[3] 4)ย ย ย ย Lechatchila the Purim feast should be earlier in the day. Is that before noon or before the 10th hour?[4] 5)ย ย ย ย May a gold pendant with Hashemโ€™s name be melted and recycled?[5] 6)ย ย ย ย I immersed utensils in a body of water thatโ€™s only there following rainfall. Is that valid?[6] 7)ย ย ย ย May I hold on to my Maaser-money long-term, or must I distribute it sooner than later?[7] 8)ย ย ย ย What is the source of the custom not to visit the same grave twice in the same day?[8] 9)ย ย ย ย At the opening of this weekโ€™s Sedra there is no gap in the Sefer Torah[9]. What if the Sofer did leave a space of two letters?[10] 10)ย  Feedback on the Eggrolls: If deep-fried, they are Mezonos. [1] ืขืœ ืคื™ ืงื™ื“ื•ืฉื™ืŸ ืœ, ื.

1) May one add water to a humidifier/cooler on Shabbos?

2) Is there a specific minimum size for a Yarmulke?

3) Is microblading eyebrows permitted?

4) On Shabbos, after the use of a towel, may it be spread out to dry?

5) What is a permissible correct way to open cartons of drink on Shabbos?

6) When naming a child after a grandparent who died young, should another name be added?

7) On Friday evening, we have Mincha shortly before sunset and Maariv right after

sunset. Is that not a contradiction, since weโ€™ve davened Mincha after Plag haMincha, so we should wait with Maariv until nightfall?

8) Having a goy bring a baby thru the street on Shabbos?

9) Our garden shed has a Mezuza. It was temporarily dismantled, with the Mezuza in place. When the shed is reassembled, does the Mezuza need to be re-affixed?

10) If it needs to be reaffixed, should a brocho be said when doing so?

11) On Shabbos I saw a hedgehog in my house, curled up in a corner under the stairs. I first moved it with a stick, then pushed it with my leg to the door. Was that okay?

12) Also, may one put out rodent poison on Shabbos? Is rodent poison muktze?
