I haven't reviewed Hilchos Pesach yet.  What is the reason that there is
some kind of zman biyur on Friday, if the real zman biyur is on Shabbos?

Kol tuv,

One caveat.

Breuer's KAJ uses Grape Juice Matza as Matza Ashira because Egg Matza might
not be deemed Matza Ashira according to the Rambam

Did it ever bother you why that neshama didn't just ask R' Akiva to say
kaddish for him? There must be something about the father son relationship
or else why did he bother (unless the goal was to change the son as well!)

The MB brings down 2 times to give 1. prior 2. in vayivarech david.
The second is based on the ari z'L. The M"A brings down the second but
mentions that the ari z'l would give at that time even if he wasn't up
to that tfila but the tzibbur was.

Any ideas on why the MB didn't quote directly? The Artscroll mentions that
2. is based on david's having said this after puttingf aside provisions
for bet mikdash. Does anyone know the source for this statement.

lastly does anyone know of a source for giving tzedaka during chazarat
hashatz - it seems similar to giving during kriat hatora, which is
forbidden?

R. Moshe Schapiro was kind enough to find for me the source, or rather lack 
thereof.

[This is from another list I'm on]

I am looking for T'shuvos on various topics on the mitzvos of Purim.  The
questions I am specifically looking at are how we do mishlo'ach manos
today (many try to do group baskets through organizations) or giving
matanos la'evyonim in another time zone, or meanings of "ad d'lo yadah"?
I know that there was an RJJ article a number of years ago (which I now
cannot find).

Any suggestions?

I think it's lo plug so you shouldn't come to make a mistake next 
year.

Rav Moshe (chelek 4 Siman 74-the one with the teshuvos to Rav Eider) mattirs
this case in the following situation. 1) The hot plate has no dials so you
can't change the temperature 2) The food is already cooked 3) It is not
possible to cook on this hot plate-only warm things up 4) By liquids it must
be somewhat hot (Hot enough that a person who wishes to eat hot food
considers it hot) and by solids it could be cold.

(If I made any mistakes in the above please correct me)

L'Chatchila one should Daven Mincha first and is mentioned by the
SA in the name of the Rambam and the Tur. One ism stillyotze Seuda
Shlishis before Davening Mincha as long as it is eaten after MiShesh
Shaos U'Mechtza Ul'Malah. Interestingly, there is a Yesh Omrim mentioned
by the Rama that states that one is not permitted to drink even water
between Mincha and Maariv on Shabbos because this is the period that the
Neshamos return to Gehinom, and therefore Seuda Shlishis should not be
eaten then either. In any case, this is not our Minhag.

With regards to Erev Pesach SheChal Lehios B'Shabbos we cannot have Pas
and daven mincha as that would be after the Zman of issur Achilas Chametz,
So wedo the beast we can.

By eating both Seudos in the morning, we can have our Pas and eat it
too... sort of.

Indeed one CAN rely on Minei Targima as I stated but then you still
have a B'Dieved. Nothing is stopping you from doing that anyway. But
the ideal cannot be fulfilled. You either losse one aspect or the other.

The very nature of being Docheh something is that you are "pushing
off' a Halachic, even Torah requirement. In the case of Lechem Mishneh
by Shaleshudes, it is not a REQUIREMENT to eat Lechem Mishne, only a
"Lichatchila". There is no such thingas being Docheh a L'Chathila.

I too did not look up the original source but quoted it second hand from
"Torah L'Daas". But I have heard it said in the name of R. Chaim that he
used to actually eat Shaleshudes. When asked why he didn't substitute one
of his Shtiklach Torah he answered that "I'm not sure about my Shtickle
Torah but a Shtickle fish is a shtickle fish."

Torah Loda'as, for us. -mi]

You are right, it isn't. The medrash can be found in:
    - Tana diVei Eliyahu Zuta, ch. 17
    - Medrash on parashas Yisro (in the Asseres Hadibros)
    - Kallah Rabusa, ch. 2
    - Midrash Ruth Hane'elam
    - Zohar Ruth Hachadash
    - Zohar Chadash, Parshas Lech Lecha (according to the "Or Zarua`")
    - Zohar, Parshas Achrei Mos (according to the "Beis Yosef")

:                                            I remember hearing and seeing that 
: kaddish is not mentioned in the gemara at all but only yehei sh'meih raba
: and yehei : sh'mo ha-gadol.

But most version of the story are about teaching the son "Bor'chu".
