and welcome to starcase a ruevanar
we are in starkey offices in baltimore
maryland
i'm sv goldberg
and i have the supposed to be involved
with the star k
to my right is ramosa heinemann schlitte
who is going to be giving this evening's
a ruevanar
as most of you know
the rov has been involved with aravin
besides for the halacha silkhusariven
but in a very practical way
in many of the communities that the
participants denied come from i don't
know how many dozens of cities the rav
has visited and uh how many thousands of
shilohs the rav has has answered on
hilhis aravind and it's a big hust for
us to have the rov in this form
as far as we know this is the first time
that technology
modern technology has been harnessed in
this way to bring together
uh rabbanim khashoggi and air checkers
from around the country
in a way we'll be able to see to show
you and see
the questions as rav heinemann deals
with them
uh we we we had a very very large
response to our
uh
to our uh
uh
our webinar many many uh dozens and
dozens of people signed up uh even from
europe people were were asking us about
it but but because of the time
difference uh they were not able to
participate
um we're going to assume now for the
for the ruevanar that that
the attendees know
generally just arriving
this is not a share in how to
make an area of a community error from
scratch we're dealing with specific
shilohs that we've accumulated
uh and these are our uh shilohs that uh
are perplexing to the local rabonum
local uh arab checkers and that's the
gist of tonight's
uh
shear you can see on the lower left of
your screen
that there is a chat
uh button and you can chat with us if
you have a shiloh four of heinemann you
can chat it uh to
to the rov and we will uh
we will be able to respond to it
um
it also the chat also translates so for
some reason uh you'd rather have the
chat in hebrew you can you can arrange
that you can uh fiddle around with it
until you can uh you can
chat in hebrew as well
um
i want to thank revzevsteen also for
arranging the webinar he's our tech and
he's here tonight
so without further ado
we'll ask the rov
to
uh
to begin with the first the first slide
i just want to make sure everybody can
hear us
so
if you can chat back is if you are
hearing us and everything is running
running running properly
we would appreciate it
okay
so we have a number of people chatting
with us that the volume is good and it
does seem to be
does seem to be working well so let's
start with the first question of
heinemann which is this question here
and the
yes okay
uh
that these uh photos of le chayam used
to span the railroad bridge
and uh this is the same picture close up
and the ref can can address this is
whether or not this is kosher everyone
see the first picture again okay
okay um good evening everyone
if you're in america
i'd um
if you're not in america so good night
or good morning wherever you may be
the let me start by saying a general
thing about a reuven
a rubin have been a source of a lot of
mahoikas
and
there are there are different opinions
where it's a right thing to make an
error but not the right thing uh we're
going to put that aside we'll go with
the old minute okay so that they used to
make a reuven all over and the
food says
in a town to make sure that there's an
arab in the town even the khazanesh
who did not who told people not to carry
in the era of he was the one who told
them how to make the heiress
and he said every jewish city has to
have a neighbor
but people carry by by mistake and some
of this uh
so that's a different story but we're
going now that with the old minig that
people used to carry in an air of
and um but the the point is that an air
should be made in such a way
that if you can make an error it should
be made in such a way that it should be
kosher
um according to uh
the majority of opinions and not to be
summoned
um
so just like in cassius
um there are different opinions what is
culture was not kosher
tries to make a
cashews which is kosher for
everyone
and um so without any shines the same
thing with the european here it should
be made in such a way that there should
not be any shiners in the in the
conscious of it now if the area broke
and now you it's uh it's for the avid on
shabbos that's different stories then
you may have to be somewhere on
um various cheetahs in order to um
uh people should not get old
so flush goods they don't know what to
do on on shabbos there's a woman in the
middle of the street with a baby
carriage watch buses do it's freezing
cold outside it's boiling hot outside or
whatever maybe the baby has to be fed
so the that's a different story but
it should be holidays now here in front
of us we have a tour surpassing over a
railroad
on my um
the one left on the left side
the seems to be the the
karnataka bam this uh string that goes
across
seems to be going over the top
now the one on the other side seems to
be going on the side
and since the aloha is that it has to be
um on top the construct must be on top
it would seem to be not kosher but but
it's not so simple if we look at it more
carefully
so we see that the actual
um
that's called
actually gets smaller towards the top
and the rope goes around a place where
it is thinner
now there is a
since the ball which is on the top
of this pole is thinner than the
is thinner than the uh
pole itself
and if this rope goes around the place
where the pole comes out
it juts out
over here then
it would be kasha if it's just an
indentation in the pole but it continues
the same
with the same
width on top
then it would not be kosher it's not
considered going on top but over here
since it's smaller on the top it might
be kosher if the place where it goes
round
is on if it if it goes
in the place where the arrow is if it's
uh it goes horizontally in and it's on
that place
it may be kosher so it's not so simple
to say it's not coach the only way you
could really know this
uh from the ground it was very difficult
to tell the only way you go if you deal
with a cherry picker you go up over the
ladder and go up and then actually see
it otherwise it's not easy to tell in
such a case you don't want someone some
someone from some other city come along
and since from the ground it didn't look
like it was from the side you want
someone come along and say
this is not kosher what kind of armor is
made this arab over here it doesn't know
anything about iran so you try to stay
away from these kind of situations
because they're going to go back and say
that it's not kosher and all your people
would not in your city won't know is it
coaches not kosher do i rely on my
rabbi or the one who made it or do i not
right so you want to make something that
shouldn't really shouldn't be any
question but if you
if it can be seen from the ground then
it's uh then there would there will be
no problem one question we have is is is
this sagging here is that okay
okay so that's another issue about the
sagging
now since the ramos says that the
gemara is konami khan konami khan vacant
that's the suicide passover so they had
a pole on one side a pole on the other
side napoleon on the top but there are
says you can make it with a string now
it's virtually impossible that the skin
that the the if you have a string across
there should be
um completely straight unless it is a
there is a passage of maybe
four feet but if it's anything a lot
bigger it's going to sag somewhat the
longer it is it has to sag
um
and
um so for the akron say so you see from
here that it can sack how much can it
sag
um
it's as long as it doesn't sound a lot
it is uh it's okay
now when you want to check if it sags a
lot or not it depends if you're looking
at it the way we're looking at it now or
if you look at it from the side
if you look at it from
like you continue from the from one pole
to the other pole you go further out it
looks much worse that way then if you
look at it the way we're looking this is
the way you're supposed to look at it
this way
it is this is kosher it's not uh the
sangha is not a problem this isn't
considered a normal sag and it's okay
okay should we take the next question
are we yes okay this we saw already i
think
can ruff see whether or not that's
kosher
okay so um
this one
maybe kosher is the same thing
maybe yes maybe no now there's an
interesting thing in the mishna brewer
mr burroughs says he brings it to ferris
israel and he says if this
um
if this piece of rope over here
yes this is a rope if it would go over
the top
of the pole even after you tied around
the sound of the side if then you put on
top of the pole would be kosher
um i'm not exactly sure
um
why it would be that way because really
then the karnataka bam it's not straight
it is it's it's curly but
says it and um
says it and if they say it we can rely
on that and it will be okay so in such a
case you have to fix it if you can just
put this over the top afterwards it
would be all right
okay
here's the question
let me make it smaller
okay so now here we have a fence
chaining fences are considered
so it doesn't have to be
a solid um
a chain-link fence it's all lovewood
within three-twelfth of each other as as
we all know the question is about the
next piece and it seems the chain-link
fence
is over broken over here
and so they put a surpass over it now
one of the
m is
is at an angle
i have no problem with that
my russian shiva rabban kathleen
said
came on the head i never heard
that he has to be straight never that
and so god we have no problem with that
and the but the question over here is a
different question
means that this is a place where you can
go through
now if you can't go through it
um
then
there's a question whether it is
considered
a kosher
serious appearance or not so the person
is a doorway
well you can go through if you can't go
through it what kind of doorway is it
so
it's
mataret it brings orion from a rush
and um there's some homophobic on it
but
if there's any place
in this chat over here
that you can go through even though the
most of you can go through but if
there's any fort falcon that you can go
through walk through then it is kosher
holidays without any question so if you
would let's say you have a house and you
have a tourist vessel over the house
that goes all the way over the house
you can't go um even if the house is
locked and you can't go through but
houses but you can go next to the house
either you know one side or the other
side it only has to be on one side it is
crucial without any questions
we have a question surely it's a wall
uh
the bushes are are love it to each other
aren't they
the we have a rule that
agadi and baikenbai
is not considered
a majitsa so the question is could a cat
walk through here or not
the um the bushes
if they push that tight bushes and a
cat could not walk through we don't have
any good deal by us but we have cats and
so if a cat could not walk through then
they themselves would be america if they
would be tenth high
but if
if a cat can walk through it's not
considered kosher mojito and you have to
come on to the tourist person and that's
why they made the tourist person over
here
okay
let's move to the next one here
okay we have this is the latte going up
over here
and on top of it
there is this um schmidt check
um it's a
guy wire another guy this uh this thing
it's a support line
it's not a wire it's a
cable so it's the end of the cable
there's something which is attached to
the cable this is the cable
coming in
there's a layer this is the cable and
then it's attached over here
and then
it is there's two sides to it and it's
attached to the pole
now the question
the
the question is i think there's another
picture of the same thing here yes it's
the same here's attached to the other
side
um
the the you can't put this larry
in the middle
over here because there's no wire over
here so the question is is this
considered an extension of the wire
it is
and because it's all attached and it
goes down
uh either side of it so the lucky goes
on either side of this bracket
it is kosher
now really
the lefty could have been put
under here under this part but it would
not have been kosher if you've been
under this part because this part of the
bracket is not easy to see from over
here but
this is where it's attached
this is attached to the pole
and it has two arms on the two sides and
this
part of the bracket is hooked in over
here
but this doesn't go in the same
direction as the wire this goes in the
same direction this is the opposite way
you know this goes horizontal and this
goes vertical and so therefore this is
not considered an attachment of the wire
it is an attachment of the pole
and um
it's um
it would not be considered kosher
and if we put the lefty under this part
of the pole
um the
the cornish algae beam is not going
this is not going over the top of it
it's going under it as a matter of fact
so therefore we had to put it to this
wire this is considered part of the wire
and goes all the way to where it ever
has to go to
so this is no problem
no problem
all these things that we're talking
about
if it's a video but i'll
can the river roam that's where i see
this question
okay um
i
um i see that the arachron would say the
pistri sha moi applies to the masculine
also
and i think it makes a lot of sense
but
the the word says episkei
knows the word says if you have
a
a wall
which is um one
brick comes out one goes in
it's not in way how to end the world so
it can be considered like a machita
because it's
so therefore it's no good
you can't use it as a economy khan
however this is
is used on the top this is how you do it
that's how you attach wires
and so therefore i don't believe that
that's considered pisgres
i think there's a normal way how it's
done
and therefore even though it's not
considered an entrance wave it's not
done as an entrance wave it is done as a
while on top and so i don't think that
that
qualifies for pisco chamois and
therefore
okay this is under this is under a this
bracket here this is the luffy
okay we have two lachey i'm over here we
have this this one that goes under this
wire
it goes under that wire so it moves out
a little bit
so this one this slurry the second this
letter goes up and goes under this wire
this wire
and and this slurry
goes up
and goes under
this wire over here
now for some reason they had to change
wires
i'm not sure exactly why
but uh both of them are good
you can have two chain even though that
these two are attached there's a bracket
attached to the two
but
as long as this
um as this slurry
goes partially past the bracket there's
no problem
it wouldn't go past the bracket we would
have a difficulty consider this bracket
as an extension of this wire or bottle
to the wire because it goes to another
wire too
but since this is thicker and it ends up
over here and the bracket ends right
over here
so um
it goes past it and it's okay
i think there's another picture of the
same
let's say no is that is it the same no
it might it might be similar but over
here we have a situation where this is
allahi and it's
the wires going over here
now this wire over here is a steel cable
has no electricity in it
it is not used not for telephone and not
for
electric or for cable tv
it is
used to hold up this wire
this wire over here which is uh this
looks like a telephone wire and it is
like
a thin wire that attaches these two
and
and um
we could use either this one or that one
this way this one is better so the lefty
comes up from the ground and goes under
this bracket
which is attached to this wire
and it's considered it is part of this
wire
and it goes this way
now for some reason we want to change
direction at this point and so they have
this going up over here
now over here this it looks like this
bracket is just meant for this y by
itself it doesn't matter
right at this point
it goes past this bracket it's under
this wire and therefore if we're using
this y this way or using the y the other
way
it would be it would be 100 caution is
there a problem with the branches
touching the wire
there's
okay so that's a good question in
general the branches touching the wire
is not a problem
but as you all know that um really a
a
legend doesn't have to go all the way up
to the wire as long as it will be cut
off over here as long as it's under the
wire it is kosher
now we don't like to do that and one of
the reasons i don't like to do that
because if there's going to be between
this the top of this latte and this wire
even is directly underneath it if the
leaves or branches that are going to
intervene between the two they may make
it a puzzle i say may make a puzzle
because it might not go all the way um
between the maybe one little part of the
top of the lefty which is under the wire
which is not um
it doesn't have the hatsitsa of this
of this leaf or this branch but it's not
very often very hard to know that so
therefore we like to go all the way up
to the top in order to get out these
problems in fact there's a branch over
here is no problem if it pulls it out of
its way
and therefore it's not straight if it
doesn't pull out its way to a big degree
basically it looks straight there is no
problem
we have two questions every one is
from a shmuel heinemann does the black
wire go through the bracket
does the black wire this uh
this one
yes yes it looks like it goes through
through the bracket
what is the what is the question of that
the this black wire goes like this
through the back
i don't know exactly what the purpose of
this bracket is but it must be attached
to the second head seats over the
capital left well so that's how we
discussed that
over here this part of the lefty is past
the bracket and so therefore it's okay
how far does the branch have to push the
wire out of the way to be puzzled
it has to be
now if it pushes it up
it's not puzzle
if it pushes because it's not worse than
a keeper then if you have a
a archway if you push it down
or it pushes it to the side it has to be
noticeable
um that
it's not considered it's it's
it's
considered a bent wire i mean it's it
has to be noticeable a little bit
doesn't matter
so small is saying if it goes to the
bracket if that wire goes to the bracket
then the wire is not going over the
lefty but it will be going through the
lefty
if it goes through the bracket then the
y is not going
then the wire is not going over the left
but it would be going through
because i guess you consider the bracket
okay this bracket over here is not part
of the lucky this bracket is attached to
the wire this is our vacci or whoever's
like it was they're put up and it's
going under this bracket
and partially under the wire and says
going under the wire it is no problem
if it only went under the bracket it
only went under the bracket
before we had a case where there were
two attached over here two wires
attached i don't think it would be
it would be bottled to this if there's
nothing else attached to is just on it
it could be his bottle but um why should
we rely on a soil like that if we can do
it 100
and over here it goes under the wire
also so it's not a problem
okay let's go to the next one
here i think the the um
the question is because it goes well
there's two questions right over here
all right so over here there's two
questions one is you have this latte and
it
makes a couple of bends
makes it bend this way and then mix it
in the other way until it goes
underneath it definitely is underneath
if that's not a question question can
you have a bend like that
so
the
it can have a bend it could have a bend
as long as the bend is going in a
general upward direction all the way
because you can't have a bend that goes
up and then goes horizontal and then
goes like that and every part of it has
to be going in upwards direction when
you're more than 45 degrees from the
horizontal all the way and 12 to the top
now
over here there's another question
and over here this surpasser looks like
it's coming from the side it looks a
little bit incriminating let me get a
little
better resolution
but if we look at it more carefully
it may be that it's not a problem
because over here
um
i'm not sure exactly but sometimes they
they put this top part
on and there's a
this piece
has a ridge in it
that maybe on top of the bridge i'm not
sure if it isn't if it's on the out
around the outside is 100 puzzle
possible holidays but if there's a ridge
over here in it which is on it might be
kosher the wire the wire is going above
the ridge
in the ridge is in the ridge it's in the
ridge now
um
it looks it doesn't look good that's not
kosher
so i don't recommend doing something
like that
even though the video that it if there's
a ridge there and it's in the ridge it
will be okay we have a question here
rebbe all these questions are dealing
with irvin using existing poles wires is
there any indian of making our own error
from scratch
meaning our own pile poles and wires or
is it absolutely to use what
exists okay
um it's not
easy in a city
to make your whole
era of from scratch you need permission
to put in poles
you need um permission to
put strings across the rows and whatever
else that is not there
it's not easy not easy to do that
if you could do that it's better for
different reasons because when you're
using telephone poles the telephone
people they do work on their polls they
they
we had a case where
one error of
yanterf
it was um yeah but i think the young
fell in the sharpest sashimi that says
fell in the shabbos and people were
relying on the earth to take uh food
into the sucker and they went and they
and they took a cable that went over
maybe forty la chayam they took it all
down on there of
trinidad terrace so we were stuck with a
whole uh maybe two miles of road where
they were relying on on them didn't and
uh we had a
um big problem how to fix it
version helped us we were able to do it
with the help of dr miller and
other people
but the um
but the
question so if
no one has any right to use your poles
it's better
but
as long as the area is there it doesn't
matter whose poles you're using if it's
existing poles
and um
or not now
when you're using a sensing pose you
don't need your shoes to go across the
street because most of the time you're
using wires to go across the street
anyway
so but you do need if you're making
modifications to the polls you need
permission from the whoever owns the
polls
um sometimes it's the telephone company
sometimes the electric company
and you don't need to just use their
wires or to use the poles you're not
doing anything to them but once you do
something to them you need their wishes
otherwise
it's us
and it's
a bargain
so rav is saying it's absolutely
to do it like this
answer okay
let me let me um
lower this resolution okay so over here
this pole
is
this is a river and they were using this
taylor musligate
right it was
all the way down the whole river
a couple of miles they were using it as
one of them
so that's perfectly kosher
kosher
to use this towel in this locket
even if the river would go it would
overflow
i'd let a hurricane or something and the
river go all the way to the top and now
there's no slope it doesn't matter
the as long as the slope is there even
it's under the water it's kosher now
three will freeze over and when they
fall to the top then we got a we have
some problems it's not casual holidays
it's much like us could be
uh the evidence we would rely on it but
it's not a hot girl but here the problem
was that we're using this
slope
for a couple of miles and then we had to
cr
cross over to the um across to the city
and um there must have been a large on
on this pole
and it went across now the this pole
has to at an aero
has to encompass the city from all four
sides
now over here from here till here
is more than three twelkum it should be
at the top of the slope
even though you don't need this whole
slope
that it's good enough if the
fontaine falcon this is much more than
10 fahrenheit
but
you could put it anywhere on the slope
above 10 fahrenheit you could put this
ball but over but
but once if this is the the top of the
slope and over here it is not considered
a slope anymore
so then it's not kosher you have to you
have two choices one is you can dig down
over here and make it part of the slope
and it'll be on top of the slope
there's also within three talking top of
slope is good or what you do is you make
another two of the passage over here
coming off and going down over here with
a pole on the slope and do it this way
so then it would all be connected
we can see in this next picture will be
the same okay now this next picture is
the same place but in this picture it
actually looks closer yeah it looks
better so it's this evening
yes i i'm just saying if it wasn't
we were looking at it this way
and now we're looking at it this way but
here is this is the slope the slope is
coming up like this and
i think over here is about the top of
the slope and then it went over
the only way you're going to know
100 if you go and take a look at it if
you want to look at it i can tell you
where it is
okay so it's in harrisburg
he notices one of his pictures
um but it's just interesting how the
pictures can be a little bit uh
deceiving
we have a question here can the reverie
it's a little bit lengthy here i think
everybody i don't think the ref has to
read aloud because everybody who's
joining us can read it for themselves
from josh okay if this is one there that
one can never get to because it's
trespassing as well
um i'm not exactly sure what this
situation is
you can you can never get to it can you
see it
from somewhere
you should be able to see it
in general
there's a i believe it's a law
it's i'm not sure if it's an insurance
law or some kind of a law that
both sides of the of the highway
have to be protected
in case of hasselhoff a dog would stray
onto the highway he should not get
killed
and there were so much work about human
beings i think more worried about the
animals like the quran says
but it doesn't have any doubts so it
might go on by mistake
well as it may be there's such a law i
must say
if there's a law there's no law but
there's uh it's not very
in the the place where you can see it is
definitely
um kept to uh
some degree and the places where it's
difficult to see
a tree falls on the fence and it can
stay that way for years if it could be
knocked down until someone complains
about it or something does something
about it so i wouldn't rely on that for
years on a
on that and there's another thing also
that sometimes the soil erodes under the
fence
um erosion from natural source of causes
like uh just brain
and if there's more than three trocham
between the bottom of the fence and the
ground the fence is not kosher so
um
he says that technically they can see it
through great terror but there are parts
that are nearly impossible unless we
knock on neighbors doors and ask to go
into their backyards
okay so he's saying it's very difficult
so how often would they have to do that
really
would they have to go through
so
um
i uh
i would leave that up to the
local robarnum to make that decision in
general if there's no storm
that you can why the the tree fell on
the fence
um there is no have not haven't been any
heavy rains that you have to worry about
erosion of the soil so you can assume
it's there or once you've got something
that you have to worry about so then it
should be checked
now there is um the way we do it by us
is that we have
we went to the telephone company we and
we uh
got a uh
a hat
from the telephone company a hard hat
and we got uh inspectors and boots and
we got them a belt with tools and when
they walk in the backyard no one has any
questions because he's examining the
poles okay there is another question
here do you need to survey the ground to
ensure that the angle is still there or
you i guess can you just eyeball it and
see it
if you eyeball it's fine
okay
um
but we're talking about after you've
checked it originally
oh yeah
and always you want to know if it's
still if it's still okay right if you
want to know the beginning if it's okay
or not so then you have to be much more
exact about it
um but very often you can you can just
tell so you can just see it's about 25
degrees maybe it's um
it's about 25 degrees
that
is
um
there
dr mill over here devised a tool
that you can measure it you take a stick
which is four feet long
and another
stick which is 20 inches
you attach them to the other to form a
right angle that's not twenty it's uh
it's it's 29
20 20. 84.
it is four feet is four feet warm way
and
20 inches the other way so you can put
in your car
and you put a right angle to you but you
put a cross beam across
to make an angle to make sure that it
stays at
90 degrees you put a
a
level on the top of it you attach a
level to the top and then that's half of
um sakura sword so harbor you put it on
the bottom and then you put a place
where the long pole hits the ground you
take the short pole and put it again and
that way you can easily easily measure
it
it would be more exact if you take one
that is
eight feet by forty inches but you can't
get into a car so it's not practical
okay
let's go to the next question
this is uh this is this is uh
um
this the the
bends over here so they put some tape
and maybe a piece of wood there i can't
see what it is to go straight down okay
so we have over here this um
now it seems that they may have been
trying to use
this metal pole that holds up the fence
as a lachie which would be uh since it
sticks out from the fact that we get a
better picture over here yeah
since it um
protrudes from the fence
so it would be okay
did they need to put this this
uh this
is here
i don't think that they had to do it
because this part of it
is going upwards direction so it bends a
little bit it's okay
but if they did that it's it's also
kosher
this can be as long as this goes within
three twelve on the ground and we would
be mahwan ten and a half inches
um also for three two for this purpose
then it would be kosher but over here
the reason i think why they needed it is
because here the fence looks like it's
broken
and so that's why they needed to surpass
across the top
now
um here we get into this question again
if it's not broken down all the way and
you can't walk through
whether it's a vessel would help in in
such a case as a matter of fact it might
not even be necessary if the whole thing
will be broken out it might not even be
necessary
to have anything over here because if
you have a straight line
as long as the pirza is less than 10
amis which is about 17 feet
and it's
this over here even from two sides
together is more than this path is down
it would be
um it will be kosher without anything
but once it has
once it has if there'd be fence there
and you can't walk over it
then
you would
you don't have this hat because it's a
passage you can't walk through you may
have to make a surpass i can rely on the
cheetahs that even you can walk through
joseph as good which seems to be the
main cheetah but as i said before that
even if any place you could walk through
any of the
this whole point it would be all right
he says it was more than 30 feet to
break more than 30 feet okay so then you
need a chance to pass okay
here this is a question it doesn't
okay it goes over this little
all right so this is not such a great
picture
and the reason why it's not such a great
picture is because
it's not clear whether this line is
going over the top of this pole or not
it's the um it's quite possible that it
goes does go over here he says the wire
does not pass above the pole itself
however there is a piece of metal which
is flush against the pole the wire
passes over that metal okay so over here
this case was it did not go over
the
pole this pole itself so i went over
there over here
now
usually
they have these
schmetrix
insulators
and there's a groove on the top of which
the wire lays
and so the wire goes
over over the of the groove
um
the question is is this considered an
extension of the pole this is attached
to it so this is for sure considered
center of the pole because it's longer
than it is wide
but the this part on the top is
this wider than it is long
if it is wider than this long then it
wouldn't help
if there's a hole in it
through this and it goes over the hole
so it's going over this part this metal
part and that will be kosher if there's
usually no hole
there's no hole we're trying to use this
part as the top as the extension of this
pole it cannot be extended to the pole
you know what it's like it's like if
you'd have a bar going across the whole
thing and go over the bar it wouldn't be
kosher because it's not part of the pole
so this if you'll be long if this over
here from italy is longer than this from
hitler here
and that you have to imagine it may be
very close
and maybe different in different uh
parts of the country
then if this will be longer it will be
kosher if this way is longer it's not
kosher
okay this is a picture of the same
this is a picture of the same oh so it's
the same thing over here you can see
better that it
maybe doesn't go over over the top of
the pole
i i want to mention something
um
of general knowledge whenever the wire
goes straight
it goes over the top of this insulator
whenever the if the wire bends over here
and goes a different direction it goes
around the side of the insulator so then
for sure it's not over the top
because of the tension
that they can't put it on the top it
will just pop out they put it tight
around the side and then it won't uh
it won't be on the top unless it goes at
the top of the pole
okay this is the question that the pole
is pushing out the wire similar to what
we had before okay so here the poles
pushing out the wire from it's hard to
see from this picture but in general
the um
it doesn't look look like it pushes very
much out of the way
even though you can see that it is but
if in general it's going straight
so then it doesn't matter if it's pushed
down a little bit of the way and it's
okay
if as long as there's two of the
personal there's a left on this side no
on the other side
okay
this is a similar question that's
touching the trees
it's hard to see what it is it's hard to
see
but it's the general principle
if it looks if it looks basically
straight it's okay
okay can i read the question here yes
please um
the conic coming out from the right side
of the picture is a couple of large
wires that are connected together one of
the corners coming out of the right side
of the picture there's a couple of large
wires they split apart to go through a
hollow tubing right of some sort and
come out the other side
as separate wires right the lucky is
underneath the top wire on the left side
of the tubing the question is whether or
not the lefty is under the correct wire
okay so this is a very common thing when
we're using telephone wires that they go
into some kind of a canister like this
and at this point they become one wire
this
makes them into one wire
it's not only if they're in a tube but
even if they'll be tied together
it's like their sunrise are at this
point it looks like they're tied
together
see this y over here is the steel cable
that holds them up
and the this over here attaches the this
wire to the steel cable
and sometimes they have like a
wire that goes around it to attach it at
this point when they're all tied
together they're one
so it doesn't matter which wire it was
over here the where the lefty was or
which one it was under at this point
there one and you can and over here you
can put it under this wire under this
one and that way it doesn't make any
difference and same thing is when it
comes out of this tube it makes it all
into one wire so under whichever wire it
comes out if there's a lucky under any
one of them it's kosher and doesn't
matter
if it is the same off it's not as a
matter of fact i have a feeling that
inside this
uh this canister it's not just they're
there for uh to keep the the the rain
out this is inside over here they're all
um
uh connected in different ways and i
don't think that it's a straight wire
that goes in one side comes out the
other side it doesn't matter even if it
is a straight wire it's at this point
they're connected and it doesn't matter
which one you use on the side and we
have a question going back to one of the
pictures here
um
rabitsy shabbos yes why is it pasha to
the thin
metal is an extension of the wood
this why is it possible that was saying
before well there's uh the maxwell ram
brings awry from a ptasis in
so they made a spa they made a longer
handle onto the master
so they should be easy for him to carry
um so he brings right from the toast
from the toasters over there that you
see that if you attach something to the
handle it becomes part of the handle so
he says that hua din if you have two
and you were
like two two by fours and you knock them
together
not uh one is long one
um
one
would be standing on the ground of these
two by fours the second one was knocked
in
um let's say uh four feet higher
and now you want to put the
choice
over the top the top two by four
it is kosher because it's considered one
and my russian shiva said if you want to
put it on top of the bottom
of the bottom one it's also kosher in
other words either one is considered the
top
you can have more than one top of allahi
so the bottom one is
kosher and it's considered the top even
that goes higher
and the top one is
considered the top even though that he
doesn't go to the ground because they're
connected
okay
here we have two pictures of a dyke
it's it's small let me see if i can
therefore explain what the okay
there was um
some place in america
that had a they made a dike
and
normally there was
a um
normally
there was this river
but sometimes it got very flooded in
order to keep out the water they had to
close it so they made this music over
here with doors that slide
with these door these walls slide
together and can be closed to keep the
water back
now
the there's just one more picture of it
that gives it a little different angle
it's just a different same thing a
different angle okay so this is what it
looks like so it was it's an entrance
way
during the week and the question was can
this be used as it is can this whole
thing be considered suicide
it is open that you can go through
because most of the time the rivers down
low but they were just
now and then they have these floods so
they made this
so
the youth over here this is a walkway on
top that people can walk on top of it
and there's a question about bridges
whether they can be considered suicide
passat but they will have a support on
the bottom
on both sides and then they have the
bridge on the top ramasha feinstein uh
ryzen is true with the bridge cannot be
considered to surpass
because this on the top was not meant to
be a pesach this was meant to that this
main purpose
was to
um walk on top of it a bridge the main
purpose of the
of the
of the uh bridge itself is not the the
boats when they f um
when they uh
um
just uh swim there they
under the under the bridge they should
have a nice place to swim under a bridge
this is not made for passage it's made
for the people to be able to go across
or the cars to be able to go across
safely without getting wet
so the um that's not considered serious
surprise that's made for a pesach at
least part of it has made her person so
that was the question over here and
therefore in this place what we did
was that we actually made a surpasser
out of wires
um
can you go back okay guys
that's what what happened in the end
that they made a they gave permission to
put a wire under here
and uh i'm sorry
um
they made
they made um they actually there were
two posts over there which they could
use and they put a wire underneath there
to use a surprise
okay he has a question
can ralph explain this mahokas isn't
this something or a motion discussion
that's what i said i said that that
answers it
it brings the right from the mara
okay is this similar to a freeway
overpass it's the same thing freeware
overpass the overpass was not made for
the people to have this beautiful
passage to go underneath it there's
meant for other traffic to go on the top
and so therefore they also should have a
surpass made by every overpass
okay let's take the next one
okay this is not s
it's not straight up and down let me
make it okay it doesn't matter it
doesn't matter we get that yeah we have
two
okay two uh okay so over here
this is the lucky
and it goes under this wire
now the
either they want to use the y going this
way or they want to use the wire going
the other way
or or both
now if it would come to a
right angle over here the wire there'll
be no problem you could put the lucky
smack on the on the place where the
right angle is it will be electric for
both sides the question over here is
um it's not going straight the y is not
going straight do we have to come with a
v like over here go put one part over
under here one part under this part
where it does go straight
now based on this mishna brewer who says
that
as i mentioned before that if you make
the choice of azkaban
and then in the end you put it on the
top
it is kosher it seems that at least at
the end it doesn't have to be straight
and that's why i was makel
uh that you could use this for both ways
but um
but if you want to make a separate one
for
like
you know to make the whole
the whole lucky going all the way down
to the ground as good as if you take
another when you take a piece of tubing
and go under here
and take another piece of jungle and
there if you did that it would maybe
my opinion this is this is caution here
there's another way here everybody said
okay there's another over here that it
seems that what they were coming in with
this wire
and then they wanted to continue with
this wire they were changing direction
over here whatever reason is it would it
would have been questionable they're
asking if this is tied if this uh
lashes is tied
to the corner let's take a look
it looks like there's yes it looks like
they tied and that they they tied it
uh which is kosher you can do that and
the reason why they did it was to make
sure that this is really it's not
attached to anything this is the last
place where it's attached to the pole
here it runs off the pole
and the the just to squeeze it under the
wire they were afraid that with the wind
or whatever
that it might just come off so in order
to make sure it stays under it they
taped it on which is you could do that
that's 100 questions
okay going back to the other question
about the highway and the bridge
under the review as the tourist
if the purpose of the bridge is that
cars can get under the highway
the purpose of the bridge is that the
cars go over the highway
not the cars go under the highway if you
wouldn't have the
the cars going over the highway you
wouldn't need this and the the cars
underneath can go
so you cannot use it
um
okay um
we've had mechanical problems in the
past with tape coming untaped
so it doesn't always stay
okay so this is something i should make
sure to check
okay
um
there's a question here the bridge can
revere in this
the bridge not being
made if it's just worse than the
electric wires that remember the
thousand pulse
okay this yes this is a good question
why is the electric wires which we're
using
for a tourist passage any different
the bridge the bridge was made we're
saying for the traffic to go over the
bridge not to be an entrance not for the
people under it so these uh
the wires are electric are not meant to
make a fancy entrance way for you to
walk it was meant to carry the
electricity
that's a good question
i i think that since we're putting
leches
under them
with the express purpose of making this
into the tourism
you know we put up is there so therefore
it becomes um then it's considered made
for zurich
but we made it that way
um
okay if the lucky would slip out from
under the wire where the tape would
still be holding them together would
that be okay
slip out i guess he means in facing over
over here
it would go up like this
but the wire is connecting them it would
not be we're not all right
okay
okay the questions are coming a little
fast for me to read
um
okay uh can you put a ballet on each
side and you steal from the highway
i don't think so okay
okay i'm sorry if we can't get to all
the questions but
there's a lot to discuss let's see what
this is
okay let me make it smaller
okay
okay so this was in a certain place
where
they were nervous
that they would not be able
to that the wire the current shall go
bam
they would not be under the lefty
on top
it would not be right on top of the
lefties what they did was that this is
the la this is the lucky that goes down
to the ground they added this part over
here which is a piece of wood
which they've
designed themselves
and they attached it to the lefty to the
side now this piece of wood becomes part
of the lachi and it's what it's
longer than it is wide
so
this becomes the top the whole thing
becomes the top of the and therefore
this whole
switching that goes at the top of it is
alga bam without any question
this way they were afraid that maybe
it's another space between
uh maybe it's uh
this way they didn't have any problems
okay
this one
this question is about the sagging why
does it go across
across the the street
um okay so
yes he's asking about the two wires on
the bottom this is very sang very much i
would not uh
recommend this for a roof
but these over here okay these are these
are alright
okay so i if i remember correctly we did
not use these
but he probably used these on the top
which one of them this one
i think was uh was the one that we used
okay well i'm not sure one of the
participants is pointing out the taco
bell is not recommended by the star k
so just because it's in the picture
doesn't mean that we are
saying you could buy there
um
here's
isn't that a problem of pisces chamoy
this must be referring to a different
question that we had before
maybe
oh which one is he referring to he's not
referring to this
i'm not sure which picture this picture
here this one
this one we already said that that's not
pistillation because that's how the how
you do it okay
okay going back to this one what is the
shear of sagging how many tv
okay it's not a shear of
um the mischievous yakov actually says
that it would be possible if it goes out
from between the two condoms notice you
have two khanim and if the wind would
blow it out from between the two condoms
it would be possible
we don't pass like this michigan
according to mishka's yakov even if we
say less than three o'clock it may be a
problem
uh surely if it's one three twelve will
be a problem we don't pascal like that
but it's not a question of
him it is a question of the angle
so it depends how wide
apart these
um
still good
as long as the wire does not sag for
less than 100
um
over here this is the lesson
and this is the wire that goes
close together from the side
and assume like example why
and the question was because this curve
is
it's hard to see
i think that the game is very important
this culture i'll use the assignment
but it's hard to see
they don't just push it from those
pictures put it that way okay so the
question is going back to the segment
a keeper that's in the archer
the plant could do it it can go very
well
um
no so this one is simple the this one is
okay the reason why they didn't pull
over here is because
these black is very often another uh on
hit brackets this is probably the
backwards of the powder one
this bolt that goes through it detaches
under that bolt and not under the
bracket
over here is the other walking and i
think that this may be the picture i'm
saying
before
and this is like that
the
christmas will go that way
and then like this
um
he's asking do you don't think boxes
always start with us
boxes
yes
this this utility box actually could be
part of the lesson and you put the
lesson all the way up until the box
and so here it gets fatter
the song is this box is longer than it
is
it
it would be boxing anything is mafsik if
you have the top of the letter over here
and it's supposed to go under wire over
here and you would use a good asset
anything that's going to be mapstick is
going even though for leaves of branches
um boxes that cannot be used inspired
they're all very massive
i think this next picture is the same
from a different knight yes this is the
same pole
yeah this is the same pole the same
question about the angle here right
okay so what i'm saying is that the
better thing to do would have been if
they would gone up to over here
because this goes straight then rather
than going over here which it it it
bends backwards it's hard for this
picture it's hard to see how it bends
and it bends this way also
no i'm not sure
also
we better go over here
what can i say the question
all right so over here
this is what i was referring to before
we have over here
this looks like it's 100 puzzle
because this is the wire the current
jagged beam and it goes
to the top of the pole but over here
this piece
sticks out
and this if this from here till here is
higher than this distance it went over
that ridge this is the extra piece that
attaches these two pieces together
without the region would be kosher i
think that's what happens over here
okay i'm not sure exactly what the
problem was i hope it's not an
electrical problem
okay
what was this
oh
it's at an angle here on this wire okay
so that's fine and i was over here
this is the the lefty goes up like this
and it goes
over here under this wire
it's um that's fine no problem
is the bolt bracket at the end of the
wire holding the wire considered part of
the wire yes it does consider the part
of the wire
so
so why did they have to go like that why
didn't they just go
they could have done that they could
have done that
okay
um
okay so this is similar
now this is a little bit different
okay
so over here
oh over here
um
this
typically would be tied
through this goal of the top of it so it
would have been all right but anyway
there's a right for different reason
because this part is over the top of
this of this pole went over the top of
the pole
and um
so it's coached because of that now
sometimes the top of the pole
is not it's not
usually it's flat and then it goes down
but if it would be
at a like at a
apex like a triangle it might not be
kosher because
it will go on the side more than on the
on the top that's something you have to
be very careful about when you're on top
of telephone poles telephone poles in
general they're made out of wood
are not cut flat on top they're always
cut at an angle
the reason why they do that is so the
water should not sit on the top and rock
the pole so it should run off now
sometimes they're cut at a very steep
angle they come from two sides
and even though the wire goes over the
top of the pole it's really going over
the side because once if the angle is
more than 45 degrees
it's steeper than 45 degrees that whole
angle is considered side of the pole and
not the top of the part
uh just consider going through the lucky
well i'm i'm assuming that the wire went
over the top of i'm assuming
that this wire
went through and they tied it over here
so they went on the top also
if it only went on the bottom then
it would be considered going through at
this point but if this part of it is on
the top as on top of this
of this part of the of the poles and
then forget about this it's approachable
before it ever got to the hole now if
you have a string that goes through the
pole you made a hole and went through
the pole you know the ortho children
says it's kosher that's going over the
top of that pie
but the meaning is not to rely on that
and we consider
a couple of questions
we have a straight line of utility poles
running down the street each contains a
lefty
and makes use of the same bundle of
wires
one lucky is no longer aligned properly
calling in a bucket truck to service
this one luckily will be a great expense
and hassle can can we ignore this one
luckily and rely on the one before and
after it to create a larger terse pesos
until we need to call in the bucket
truck for at least another repair
okay so
they say oh in the name ramosha
feinstein
that if you have one long street
um a straight street uh with
let's say 10 poles
and one line that goes over them you
only need left on the first pole and
then
the last pole
um we don't
rely on that and the reason why we don't
rely on that is because the karnataka
bayern
it sags
between one pole and the other so if
you're worried about
a if you're worried about a pistachio
boy
this is a for example episcopal chamois
it goes up and goes down but don't go
down all the way to the last pole so we
don't like to rely on that um and we put
exactly on each bottle now if you don't
want to get a bucket truck
you could uh get a pool climber if you
still can find one round
you know they have these special shoes
and they climb a pole or
in baltimore we went up ladders
and and fixed it
and uh
you can also run your answers it has a
health ground
yeah you may be able to
um
if you know it's too high you may be
able to
the dr mello suggested that you may be
able to run your own wire across
the lower
points
depending on the situation
okay let's rough have time for a few
more questions
okay
um
i think the curvature here is is the
question
okay so
this curve over here if we're going this
way
is
only but he have it it's not
then one going the other way maybe he
could make a little more because if it
goes straight this way besides going
around the pole it also goes up and down
you're not so happy about that
this
is beautiful
this this is the latte it doesn't have
to go under the whole wire
as long as it goes on the part of the
wire it is good now here the maybe the
question was because it goes around the
pole but that i said that
based on the mission forum
okay remy this is a
okay this is this is the lucky
okay so these these are not connected
they're just one this pipe is
just stuck into this green uh piece okay
so these
were
set into concrete these uh probably
metal pipes
was so that when people park their cars
here
they shouldn't knock into the fence so
they have these metal pipes that you'll
break your car instead of breaking the
fence when you bump into them
now they're not high enough i'm assuming
that not 10 fahrenheit
so they want it
so they have these metal
pieces which they stuck into the
into the inside of this cylinder this
and they have this tubing over here
which is the
which is the luffy which goes up some
place i guess they'll need a high wire
at this point
now over here since this is all
connected
the this is goes to the ground and these
uh green
pieces of metal are into the concrete
which is inside of these
of this
metal cylinder
and this is connected to the these green
pieces of metal it's not it's not
connected it's just stuck in there
so it's stuck in there okay stuff in
there may be actually entitled there as
long as it's in there and stays in there
it's uh it's fine it has to be
they must have connected it because they
probably attached a wire to the very top
of it
and so they didn't want it to fall down
okay the question here is do you measure
the ten falcon from pizza all the way up
to the top of the pointed poles of the
fence or just up to the
horizontal bar
okay since these poles are lowered to
each other
so um
you would figure the
the 10-fold to the top
they must be loaded to each other
because otherwise the bar's not going to
help you because over here
there is no there will be no mojitsa so
they're logged
and
and you go to the top of the bars
now over here at this point
there is
not love it
probably
but
if it is
there's a shine if is between three and
four two
if you have a space
which is between three and four twerking
it's not lovewood and it's not a passage
so even though it's less than ten
ominous
but you can't have a shampest because it
passes with these fourteen one the
puzzle can't fit through less than four
four
so it is um it is a
problem either you're gonna make it less
than three or more than four now we hear
um
it depends on what the situation is
okay we have some
uh questions that rough said previously
uh robbie male said he couldn't hear the
rope did did he say we could ignore the
uh
affected paul lucky for the short term
or he could not ignore it they should
get it fixed right away okay
ramil is very
german true i didn't answer the question
that's why i didn't hear the answer
they should fix it
okay
going back to the yellow pole if the
yellow pole is not 10 high
is the pole considered as ray's carca or
an extension of the lefty
the pole the yellow pole
yeah
the l pole is considered part of the
left does it make a difference i told
you
if it would be
as long as it is higher than it is wide
it's certified paul
what if the yellow pole was more than
four almost
wide
it was more than four hours wide it's
not percussion
promise why
okay
let's go to another picture
okay so over here the question is if
this could be a lucky this this this
this wire over here
there's a little bit of a problem with
this
um why do they need to do that
i don't know they have one over here so
i'm not sure why they needed that but
for whatever reason
um
if it's a lucky witch blows around in
the wind
it is not caution the corner shock of
mayhem is allowed to blow in the wind
the lefty has to be tight and this one
seems to be not tight and so so it's not
crushed
i really don't know why they needed this
because they really have one over here
maybe they put this one on later
i'm not sure
okay
here this goes over the fence
okay
so this is a cushion seriously over here
the question is attached to the fence it
goes down to the ground on the other
side of the fence
the fact is over a fence is not a
problem
what is a problem which is mentioned in
the taken aravind from
the um ravenous laboratories
that
if
this area behind this fence is enclosed
from all four sides
then he has a problem that
with this with the slurry and the reason
why he said he has a problem with it
is because he says if it's because more
for science
this is an interesting thing it says
a base circumvent it's like a house and
basa commander malia dummy whereas as a
house is considered like it's full
and therefore
the
doesn't go down to the ground it's
considered going over full house but as
long as this area behind this fence is
not enclosed in four size you can go in
there's an entrance way to go in
that is open
even though that it technically will be
considered
hierarchically
enclosed from four sides but if it isn't
the mice and close from four sides then
this is kosher
we're going back to the previous picture
he's asking isn't it is it also a
problem not being able to support the
passive shotkash
okay so it's true that a
that a the the
economy the karmic
it has to be able to have to be strong
enough to support adele's of cash
but let me explain to you what it does
of cash is
else if you when you get your suit back
from the cleaner so it comes in the
plastic
now the cash is not afrika kash it means
anything so if you have that plastic
like that thickness of a plastic then
you want to put it
over
this karnataka bayhem
and it'll be able to support it it is uh
it's fine
over here this lahi has been supported
by this wire
if there would be times
um it would be able to support uh dallas
may know that the material is not wrong
it said the task says you can take a
piece of chalk
and
make it with a chalk mark you can make a
economy con so how's that going to hold
the del sur cost so
marshall
okay
this is uh interesting we're not sure
exactly what we're doing it just comes
together with this
this picture
um
well this was someone's invention
i guess they're using it here he's
asking me
no i'm not told there's a question
uh could you go back to
the model yeah
okay it looks like this person wants to
use this as the luffy
over here
this y is going
over here and he wants this i guess to
be under here
it doesn't uh
it doesn't have a huge attempt let's put
it that way i would use it
this is not considered
the top of the left
now he wants to use this to to attach it
to this wire
this should be considered part of the
wire
and um and this should be under this
wire
this kind of configuration is not
all right as i said it does not even
tell you
okay let's take maybe a couple minutes
let's see
okay
here i'll get the whole picture
okay
this question is if this is considered
and it's extending the leslie to the
floor we'll make it
so this is one picture
and this is of the same
tree
this is the three is this this is the
bottom yeah this is the same it's the
same it's the same picture that's not
the same color
he says
okay so
the question is like this this lefty
from here until the earth
which is around over here here is one
three two hours right now
um it would not be kosher straight down
that's for sure it's on this tree
there's one three talking about it over
here which is the nearest place to the
ground
if this is one three two
it would not be kosher
now there's a sword to say that maybe
why don't we use the tree itself as the
lefty
and so even if we just start over here
it's going to the ground because the
tree goes to the ground
so there's a
mogan of ram
that says that has to be
um
something
you can't use a wall as a cabinet on a
wall
if the walls look like there's something
which is bullet from the wall and some
say there has to be a tap out but
from the wall then it's it's
snickerdoodle
over here it's not nick of the trees are
that he looks like a regular tree so
i would be hustling too south
if there's very little space under the
pole do we still assume you didn't
broken bow
there's a little space under the pole
there's a uh how do i do this picture
right i mean
it's not so this picture is not possible
today could be in bacon boy because
there's a tree there
but the um
every
has to
uh
we went through most of the pictures
that we that we have got
um
i want to thank you all very much for uh
for giving this year
i see there's still many more questions
that we were not able to uh to get to
people are welcome to
send your questions to to the starkey or
to the rose himself
um
and uh we we
we would like to
uh make this not a one-time
event
if there are more questions
or comments you can email us at a roof
at stardashk.org
and we will very much try to make a
follow-up
thank you very much for
for joining uh rebzev steen
would like me to uh
to uh
to tell you that he he uh
took a uh what's it called a survey of
all the different uh aravind uh that
that were represented here tonight and
it's all across the united states
california many in the new york area but
in in western uh united states as well
so we thank you all for joining us
and uh what are we sure let's see this
is
