I recently was asked by a friend, who is writing a particularly comprehensive history of the town that we grew up in, to photograph all the gravestones in the town’s cemetery. He may not do this himself as he is a Kohen. I am, through a website of the town, in touch with a large number of families who have left the town (some emigrating to other countries), and would like to know if it would be proper to upload the pictures to the website for viewing by members of the web site - Or alternatively emailing each family to offer to email the relevant gravestone picture to them.

My friends and I are debating whether women and children would be involved (and participating) in seders circa 33CE. I say they would be, that it was acommunity celebration, they say no, that is was sex-segregated. So who is right?

why cant a woman have her wedding during her period?

Hi I hope you can help me with this one. I come from a very religious home.. But I rebbeled, for whatever reason . I am ashamed of being jewish, and dont want to have any thing to do with it. Yet it's driving me crazy. I was brought up with a very crippled jewish mentality, I question g-d , and I am very angry. What do you think will do me some good? The may 26 memorial weekend or the shavuos retreat. both of either I am stuck financially too. I hope you respond soon.

does the prohibition of not meshuval wine being handled by a non-jew also apply to non observant jews? I thought observance was between you and Hashem, but recently someone told me that I had to be careful of non Shomer Shobbos Jews at my Pesach table. Please expain. Thanks in advance, Norma
