                    "Schlissel Challah".

This Chasidic Minhag. (אוהב ישראל- Apter Rav zt"l) has recently been adopted by all women regardless of family background.

The Minhag of חלת עני is at least 500 years older than Schlissel Challah. It goes back to the times
of the ראשונים (רא"ש), yet very few have ever heard of it.

The Minhag of the four-cornered Challah also
goes back to the times of the ראשונים (כל בו).
Most women (& men) don't know when to bake it.

It would be interesting to know what's the key that makes
the Schlissel Challah so successful compared to other
special Challahs.
   
--------------------------------------------------------------
 
Some claim that Schlissel Challah is rooted in Christian
and/or pagan practices.
Keys used to be manufactured in the form of a cross, and at Easter time, Christians would bake them into a rising loaf of bread to symbolize Yoshke rising from the dead.
(Hot cross buns.)

The חיד"א מורה באצבע ז' -ק"צ writes, " This is a כלל גדול. You should not
follow any Minhag unless you know the root (source) of it from חז"ל, or authentic כתבי אריז"ל, or you know the true reason behind the Minhag. "   
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- הרה"ג ר ' אי"ל שטיינמן זצ"ל  said, "Only those סגולות that the סגולה is in itself a Mitzvah (eg, סנדק - paying tuition for others). Those Segulos one should do." Even if the סגולה won't work, the זכות of doing the מצוה might work. Most of the other non-Mitzvah סגולות are a waste of time to do. (סתם ג'האקט אין קאפ אריין)    THE KEY TO FINANCIAL SUCCESS The גמרא נדה ע' ע"ב  says, "If one wants to become wealthy, he should, 1) increase his השתדלות* in business. (ירבה בסחורה) 2) Be honest in his business dealings. 3) Daven to Hashem to grant him riches. *I'm not sure how the בעלי מוסר would explain ירבה בסחורה

Parshas Hashavua-vort for parshas shemini

ראשיכם אל תפרעו - ולא תמתו (ויקרא י':ו')                         

Mori V’rabi Harav Hagaon R. Shlomo Miller Shlita, said:

 “A Kohen whose פיאות are longer than a few millimeters (more than 30 days growth)who enters the Bais Hamikdash  would be חייב מיתה. *.

פיאות are שערות הראש which require being cut once in 30 days”.

A Kohen Gadol had to cut his hair once a week and a king every day.

Their פיאות must have been even shorter. 

*רמב"ם ביאת  המקדש א' הל' ח

The Giraffe זמר

 

The Giraffe is a kosher animal because it has split hoofs and chews its cud. Contrary to popular (childish) belief, the length of the neck does not impede the shechting process. In fact, the longer neck provides additional space, making shechting easier and more efficient. The גמרא חולין מ"ה says "כל הצואר כולו כשר לשחיטה" The whole neck is Kosher for Shechitah. The ריטב"א קידושין מ"ט ד"ה תשעה (and other ראשונים)  quote a חז"ל (which we don't have today)  The חזיר will be returned (להחזירו אלינו) to us and will become a Kosher animal. Shechting pigs can be tough because they don't have a clear neck like other animals. This makes it harder to find the right spot for the cut.
