Rav Osher Kalmanowitz Leaves Mirrer Yeshiva, Places his 27-year-old "Yunger-Pisher" Eidim To Give Shiur

2008-05-07T11:59:00.003-04:00

On behalf of the Board of Directors in Mirrer Yeshiva, we would like to wish the Rosh Yeshiva, Rav Osher Kalmanowitz Shlita a big Mazel Tov upon his decision to leave Mirrer Yeshiva for the next year.
This is reason for much Simcha.

Every day without him, is considered a Yom Tov, and Hallel might need to be recited (please speak to you local Posek).

In case you are unaware, Rav Kalmanowitz has decided to open a kollel for "top yungerleit" just near the yeshiva. His hopes are that he will then have a 'core-group' of yungerleit (aka: laydegayers, coffedrinkers, and cigarette smokers) to give him kavod, and kiss up to him vee ess darf tzu zein.

The only thing that the gevaldiger tzibur must keep in mind, is that he is not getting any 'top-notch' yungerleit, but instead will have a few dead-beet losers who are 90% out of Lakewood already, and looking for work.

There is however, cause for great concern in the Yeshiva.

Rav Kalmanowitz has placed his 27-year-old son-in-law in his shiur room to deliver the daily shiur instead of him (since he will be very busy for the next year establishing a top-notch kollel). This is unacceptable, and people should understand that there is a yunger shvuntz saying a shiur in what once was, the most prestigious yeshiva in the world.

Voo halt men oif der velt?!

Please spread the word that the Mirrer Yeshiva is no longer a place for Bochrim to excel, but rather to hear a 27-year-old nobody 'funfer' around with a rashi or two.

This yunger-pisher (from our investigation) is nothing more then a HASC counselor.

Not to mention that just 4 months ago, Rav Osher Kalmanowitz adamantly refused to allow Rav Avrumi Berenbaum to deliver the Shiur (bimakom the R"Y zatzal), while Rav Asher Dov Berenbaum would remain Rosh Yeshiva.
This was nothing more then a set-up by the Kalmanowitz Mishpacha to push the Berenbaum's out of the Yeshiva.

Just a public message for everyone out there, be advised that although it may seem rosy and quiet out there, just stay tuned for something big about to destroy the Kalmanowitz "hijacking".

MARAN Rosh Yeshiva ZATZAL

2008-01-15T13:39:00.000-05:00

No words can possibly describe the loss that the world has just felt with the passing of Maran Rosh Yeshiva ZATZAL......

More than 60,000 bnei torah (in NY) gathered to pay their last respects to the sa'ar hatorh of America.

An approximate 100,000 gathered in Eretz Yisroel outside the Mirrer Yeshiva for the Levaya.

Following the wishes of Maran Rosh Yeshiva ZATZAL, the mantel as Rosh Yeshiva was passed-on to his son, Rav Asher Dov Berenbaum Shlita.

We wish him much hatzloch, and brocha.

(Thanks to the Yeshiva World News for the photo of the levaya. for additional photos please visit: http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=17637)

Building Expansion Update & Video!

2005-12-18T17:30:00.000-05:00

Update:

Click Here to View video

The variance for the new construction is in the filing stage; the plans to close the steel for the HS Bais Medrash and Bais Medrash dorm rooms are finalized and will begin shortly. Plans include complete new facade, remodeling the dinning room, new Yeshiva Ketana Bais Medrash in the yard, and new bathroom facilities for the rest of the buildings.

There were some heating delays with the new boiler system installed, due to mechanical issues, which were resolved early Monday morning.
If we proceed as scheduled, we will be able to completely renovate the Bais Medrash this coming summer.

The new lobby, shiur rooms, coatroom, washing and bathroom facilities are mostly done, and looking exceptionally beautiful and proving to be very functional and necessary. Most important: The Rosh Yeshiva is extremely happy with the changes, and constantly requesting that we finish the rest of the building, especially the Bais Medrash, as soon as possible.

This is now the time to help insure that we aren’t halted by the lack of funds. Please take this very seriously, and decide the best and most generous way you can have a stake in the future of our yeshiva. We are all in this together, let’s keep it going.

Thanks.

Comments on The Posts:

2005-12-08T12:05:00.000-05:00

The Board Of Directors has just finished an emergency meeting in The Main Office (which is located in an "Undisclosed Location"). B"H The Rov and our Staff from the Lakewood Field Office were in attendance and we have decided that until further notice we will be moderating ALL comments that are posted to the Blog.

The reason for this decision is that there are unfortunately quite a few immature individuals who keep posting comments that are completely out of line. Everyone likes a good laugh once in a while; and we actually appreciate some good natured humor. But it got to a point where it just became completely out of control that we were busy deleting 50 DUMB comments all day long, and couldn't get any work done for The Yeshiva. (Post-Dinner phone calls, new construction, fixing the heat etc.)

So to ALL people who think that they have something that they would like to say: Don't be shy and post your comments. They are reviewed and filtered. If they are decent they will be allowed onto the Blog for everyone to read.

Thank you for your understanding, and we again say thank you to all the HUNDREDS of people who view our site daily.
