spitefully, then Hashem will forgive her for any sins committed against Him, including those sins done intentionally or spitefully. If your friend still insists on withholding forgiveness from you, even after you tried to the best of your ability, you should announce in the presence of ten people that you did your very best to appease her and it is not your fault that she refuses to accept your sincere apology.

Q

Since Yom Kippur falls out on Shabbos this year, are there any special added minhagim or halachos that I should be aware of, both before the fast and afterwards?

A

Some of the changes we will be experiencing this year include the following: Avinu Malkeinu is recited on Shacharis of Erev Yom Kippur and is then omitted during all of the Yom Kippur tefillos except for Neilah; the bracha over hadlakas neiros is “…shel Shabbos v’shel Yom HaKippurim”; after Maariv on Motzei Yom Kippur, the full havdalah, including besamim, is recited; and a candle should be left burning throughout Yom Kippur so that “Borei meorai

28

ha-eish” can be recited. B’ diavad, if a candle was not left burning over Yom Kippur, “Borei meori ha-eish” may still be recited.

Q

My twelve-year-old daughter is fasting this year for the first time and I’m worried about how she’ll make it. Should I encourage her to sleep instead of daven, or is that inappropriate?

A

There is no question that fasting on Yom Kippur is more important than davening. Thus if there is no way that she can fast unless she spends the entire day in bed, then she must do so. But your job as a parent is to teach her the proper approach to mitzvos and help her understand her obligations as a bas Yisrael. You must explain to your daughter that davening and fasting are not mutually exclusive and that there are multitudes of people who are able to both daven well and fast the entire day. Unless she is ill, in which case she may possibly be exempt from fasting, there is no reason that she should not be able to do both very successfully. hair.

There are over 169 different kinds of progressive lenses. How do you know which are best for you?

0RVW SHRSOH ZKHQ WKH\ ÂżUVW JHW SURJUHVVLYH OHQVHV NQRZ YHU\ OLWWOH DERXW WKH RSWLRQV DYDLODEOH There are many things you need to know before you buy progressive lenses. Done right they provide better sight, more comfort and no strain. Done poorly they can be a source of more stress, headaches and poor vision.

0DNH VXUH \RX JHW WKH ULJKW WHFKQRORJ\ WKH ULJKW PHDVXUHPHQWV DQG WKH ULJKW IUDPHV 7KH ULJKW WHFKQRORJ\ How lenses are made have changed very quickly as technology has improved our abilities to create better progressive lenses. Digital lenses provide for a wider field of vision, greater accuracy of progression and clear peripheral vision. 7KH ULJKW PHDVXUHPHQWV With progressive lenses especially, millimeters make a difference. Is the reading part of the lens sitting at the exact spot that it should? Does the distance area begin too high or too low? Besides the measurements in the lenses, your posture needs to be taken into account. If your optical professional is not measuring all of the

areas you will be getting a less that optimum visual experience. 7KH ULJKW IUDPHV Most people think frames are all about fashion - how they look. While finding frames that suit you is important, finding frames that will enhance your vision by how it accommodates your lenses is even more important.

6REHO (\HFDUH VSHFLDOL]HV LQ SURJUHVVLYH OHQVHV

Our state of the art facility has the latest technology for the best quality lenses available. We have digital lenses that can be tailored for a person’s work tasks and individual needs, and our measuring process is the most thorough anywhere. We have an extensive collection of frames ranging from beautiful designer frames to budget frames of time tested quality. We also carry a very large selection of quality children’s frames. 7KH ULJKW WHFKQRORJ\ 7KH ULJKW PHDVXUHPHQWV 7KH ULJKW IUDPHV &RPH LQ IRU D IUHH FRQVXOWDWLRQ PHQWLRQ WKLV DG DQG UHFHLYH RII IUDPHV DQG OHQVHV RQ D FRPSOHWH SDLU ([FOXGHV DQWL UHÀHFWLYH FRDWLQJ DGGHG WR OHQV

The Observant Jew By Rabbi Jonathan Gewirtz

Troubleshooting Tips My first real job was in a computer company and I owe a debt of gratitude to them, especially my supervisor Joe, for teaching me the basics of troubleshooting. For those who don’t know, troubleshooting is a way of identifying the root causes of a problem, enabling you to find the solution. In the computer business, the first thing we would ask is “What is happening (that shouldn’t) or what is not happening (that should)?” We try to get the most defined details possible. By identifying the specific problem without assigning a cause to it, we get a more objective picture of the issue and keep our options open in dealing with it. Next, we’d ask when it started. By matching a timeframe to any other things that might be going on, we can see if there is any cause and effect link between them. Then we identify which things might cause the result and one by one eliminate them as possibilities. For example, recently I got an e-mail at work saying that some people couldn’t log in to a particular software program. Now that’s a very vague statement. It’s internetbased so could they on to any other sites? If not, it’s not a software problem. OK, they can get on the actual website, but they can’t log in. No problem, we’ll reset the passwords. I tell them to MAKE SURE THE CAPS LOCK IS OFF because if they try to enter a password with a capital letter where there shouldn’t be one, they will not get in. I reset the passwords and it works for one user, but another person still has problems. I ask them to text me the usernames of the people who are having trouble. When they do, I see the problem with user number 2. It’s PICNIC (Problem in Chair, Not in Computer.) You see, he was misspelling his username. I clarified what his actual assigned username was and voila! he was able to log in. I then noticed that User number 3 had the same issue. The text had the wrong username. Problem solved, right? Wrong! I called and told the woman who had initially contacted me to tell user number three that the username was wrong. He insisted he had it right. I showed her where to check and she confirmed I was right. We then had a conference call. It wasn’t really a conference call, but she put her cellphone on speaker and stood in front of the user’s desk. That way, when I asked a question, I enjoyed a response that sounded like someone gargling the ABC’s in a wind tunnel. The woman repeated the answers and the user insisted he was having the same problem. As it turns out, I managed to overhear in between gurgles, he had been able to log in the whole time. The problem was that the system was asking for a new password and the

one he submitted was not being accepted. I pointed him to the small text beneath the spot asking him for his password which identified that the new password must have letters, a number, and a special character (such as $!*#% - which are quite appropriate for how I was feeling at the moment.) Each time he tried putting in a password without following the rules it wouldn’t take and he thought it was a problem with the computer. Again, this is pilot error, with the user placing blame where it doesn’t belong. It’s Elul. It’s a time for looking at ourselves and doing self-assessments. If we want to figure out what is wrong, the first thing we need to do is keep an open mind and not be quick to place blame. The problems we have just may be caused by a different source than we think. We need to see when we started having issues, both in terms of what we experience in our lives and how we treat others. Did something set a chain of events in motion? If so, what caused that event and can it be addressed? When we have problems, do we think that perhaps, like my friend with the wrong username, the issue is that we expect our lives or roles in the world to be different than they are supposed to be? Do we refuse to read the fine print and then, when the new password we enter doesn’t work, do we blame the software (read: Torah) and not ourselves? The Torah and mitzvos are set up so that the world functions optimally and we get the maximum productivity out of it. If we choose to operate on our own terms, then we have no one else to blame when things don’t work. In fact, they actually are working perfectly, just as the Programmer intended. It’s just that our expectations and desires may be incompatible with this operating system. So, take it from someone with experience, and be a little more methodical in troubleshooting yourself. When you understand that the errors most often lie in the user’s control you can skip the finger-pointing and simply correct the problem. Then everything will start working as it should and we’ll all be coded for a sweet new year. Now in bookstores, The Observant Jew, a compilation of some of Rabbi Gewirtz’s best articles from years past, is receiving critical acclaim. With short, funny, insightful selections, this book is the perfect summertime companion. Look for it in your favorite Jewish Book Store or visit Feldheim. com.
