CURRENT TOPIC:
HALACHOS OF ROSH CHODESH
1)
If a Shliach Tzibbur omits Ya'aleh V'Yavo in his silent Shemona Esrei,
if he remembers after he already finished he does not need to repeat his
silent Shemona Esrei as he may rely on his Chazoras HaShatz, the loud
repetition of Shemona Esrei that he will be saying. (See Shulchan Aruch Siman 126:4)
If,
however, the Shlizach Tzibur remembers before he finishes his silent
Shemona Esrei he should go back to Retzei and repeat from there, with
Ya'aleh V'Yavo.
2)
If one remembers that they forgot Ya'aleh V'Yavo before completing
their Shemona Esrei and taking three steps back, but recites it right
when they remember, without going back to Retzei, has not satisfiedtheir obligation. (See Sefer Ishei Yisroel Perek 39 footnote 42)

"All that is thought should not be said. All that is said should not be written. All that is written should not be published. All that is published should not be read." Rabbi Menachem Mendel of Kotzk
Life seems to be an endless flow of information. Foursquare tells me exactly where my "friends" ate lunch today; Facebook shows me photos of who they ate it with; and Yelp tells me whether or not they liked it. It can sometimes feel like a mad cycle of garbage in, garbage out.
Whatever happened to privacy, modesty, discretion?
That's where a bit of "free will" comes in. Just because the tools are there to share, share, share, doesn't mean we have to partake. We have to know where to stop. Otherwise, it's a big black hole. And as I always say, the world needs less information... and more inspiration.
