How are Shabbat meals possible with all the restrictions?
Firstly I understand that people can buy or make food in advance but there are so many restrictions. How will you get the food to the table, since transferring objects from one place to another is prohibited? How will you store the perishable food since a refrigerator uses electricity and electricity is prohibited? Since meat is traditional how will you eat it since separating it from the bone is prohibited? I’m not trying to degrade my Jewish friends. I’m just curious. Thanks! By the way, Shabbat Shalom in advance to all my Jewish friends.
Morey000 gave a good answer.
Besides cooking in advance, warmers were used or slow cookers, so a flame used was already on.
I don’t know what you mean by not separating meat from bone. It’s so familar sounding but I’ve got a mental block.
This site has a lot on it. Although your questions are unusual (which if you have Jewish friends, you know is a good thing )

============
Since the Torah doesn’t say how to honor Shabbat, only to honor it as a day of rest…one has to interpret what that means. I wonder how they interpret it themselves.
Air handlers typically employ a large squirrel cage blower driven by an AC induction electric motor to move the air. The blower may operate at a single speed, offer a variety of set speeds, or be driven by a Variable Frequency Drive to allow a wide range of air flow rates. Flow rate may also be controlled by inlet vanes or outlet dampers on the fan. Some residential air handlers (central ‘furnaces’ or ‘air conditioners’) use a brushless DC electric motor that has variable speed capabilities.
Multiple blowers may be present in large commercial air handling units, typically placed at the end of the AHU and the beginning of the supply ductwork (therefore also called “supply fans”). They are often augmented by fans in the return air duct (“return fans”) pushing the air into the AHU.
Heating and/or cooling elements
Air handlers may need to provide heating, cooling, or both to change the supply air temperature depending on the location and the application.
Smaller air handlers may contain a fuel-burning heater or a refrigeration evaporator, placed directly in the air stream. Electric resistance and heat pumps can be used as well. Evaporative cooling is possible in dry climates.
Large commercial air handling units contain coils that circulate hot water or steam for heating, and chilled water for cooling. Coils are typically manufactured from copper for the tubes, with copper or aluminium fins to aid heat transfer. Cooling coils will also employ eliminator plates to remove and drain condensate. The hot water or steam is provided by a central boiler, and the chilled water is provided by a central chiller. Downstream temperature sensors are typically used to monitor and control ‘off coil’ temperatures, in conjunction with an appropriate motorised control valve prior to the coil.
Filters
Air filtration is almost always present in order to provide clean dust-free air to the building occupants. It may be via simple low-MERV pleated media, HEPA, electrostatic, or a combination of techniques. Gas-phase and ultraviolet air treatments may be employed as well.
It is typically placed first in the AHU in order to keep all its components clean. Depending upon the grade of filtration required, typically filters will be arranged in two (or more) banks with a coarse-grade panel filter provided in front of a fine-grade bag filter, or other ‘final’ filtration medium. The panel filter is cheaper to replace and maintain, and thus protects the more expensive bag filters.
The life of a filter may be assessed by monitoring the pressure drop through the filter medium at design air volume flow rate. This may be done by means of a visual display, using a pressure gauge, or by a pressure switch linked to an alarm point on the building control system. Failure to replace a filter may eventually lead to its collapse, as the forces exerted upon it by the fan overcome its inherent strength, resulting in collapse and thus contamination of the air handler and downstream ductwork.
Humidifier
Humidification is often necessary in colder climates where continuous heating will make the air drier, resulting in uncomfortable air quality and increased static electricity. Various types of humidification may be used:
Evaporative: dry air blown over a reservoir will evaporate some of the water. The rate of evaporation can be increased by spraying the water onto baffles in the air stream.
Vaporizer: steam or vapour from a boiler is blown directly into the air stream.
Spray mist: water is diffused either by a nozzle or other mechanical means into fine droplets and carried by the air.
Ultrasonic: A tray of fresh water in the airstream is excited by an ultrasonic device forming a fog or water mist.
Wetted medium: A fine fibrous medium in the airstream is kept moist with fresh water from a header pipe with a series of small outlets. As the air passes through the medium it entrains the water in fine droplets. This type of humidifier can quickly clog if the primary air filtration is not maintained in good order.
Mixing chamber
In order to maintain indoor air quality, air handlers commonly have provisions to allow the introduction of outside air into, and the exhausting of air from the building. In temperate climates, mixing the right amount of cooler outside air with warmer return air can be used to approach the desired supply air temperature. A mixing chamber is therefore used which has dampers controlling the ratio between the return, outside, and exhaust air.
Heat recovery device
A heat recovery device heat exchanger of many types, may be fitted to the air handler between supply and extract airstreams for energy savings and increasing capacity. These types more commonly include for:
Cross Plate Heat exchanger: A sandwich of plastic or metal plates with interlaced air paths. Heat is transferred between airstreams from one side of the plate to the other. The plates are typically spaced at 4 to 6mm apart. Can also be used to recover coolth. Heat recovery efficiency up to 70%.
Thermal Wheel: A slowly rotating matrix of finely corrugated metal, operating in both opposing airstreams, heat is absorbed as air passes through the matrix in the exhaust airstream, during one half rotation, and released during the second half rotation into the supply airstream in a continuous process. Can also be used to recover and coolth. Heat recovery efficiency up to 85%. Wheels are also available with a hydroscopic coating to provide latent heat transfer and also the drying or humidification of airstreams
Run around coil: Two air to liquid heat exchanger coils, in opposing airstreams, piped together with a circulating pump and using water or a brine as the heat transfer medium. This device, although not very efficient, allows heat recovery between remote and sometimes multiple supply and exhaust airstreams. Heat recovery efficiency up to 50%.
Heat Pipe: Operating in both opposing air paths, using a confined refrigerant as a heat transfer medium. The ‘pipe’ is multiple sealed pipes mounted in a coil configuration with fins to increase heat transfer. Heat is absorbed on one side of the pipe, by evaporation of the refrigerant, and released at the other side, by condensation of the refrigerant. Condensed refrigerant flows by gravity to the first side of the pipe to repeat the process. Heat recovery efficiency up to 65%.
Controls
Controls are necessary to regulate every aspect of an air handler, such as: flow rate of air, supply air temperature, mixed air temperature, humidity, air quality. They may be as simple as an off/on thermostat or as complex as a building automation system using BACnet or LonWorks, for example.
Common control components include temperature sensors, humidity sensors, sail switches, actuators, motors, and controllers.
Vibration isolators
The blowers in an air handler can create substantial vibration and the large area of the duct system would transmit this noise and vibration to the occupants of the building. To avoid this, vibration isolators (flexible sections) are normally inserted into the duct immediately before and after the air handler and often also between the fan compartment and the rest of the AHU. The rubberized canvas-like material of these sections allow the air handler to vibrate without transmitting much vibration to the attached ducts.
The fan compartment can be further isolated by placing it on a spring suspension, which will mitigate the transfer of vibration through the floor.

which is the best refrigerator to buy for a family of 4 numbers and non vegetarian?
It depends on your preferences. Do you prefer a side-by-side? Top freezer, bottom freezer? Will you need side door storage for gallons of milk?
Ours has a filtered water dispenser that I couldn’t live without.
I have a whirlpool gold side-by-side, about 5 years old, have never had any issues with it.
I have a Kenmore Coldspot Fridge and the water tastes bad. How much for parts and labor to replace the line?
I have a Kenmore Coldspot 2002 Side-By-Side Refrigerator Model #52512101. The water and ice tastes terrible in it (we are now using ice trays and do not drink the water in it). I bought a house in 2006 which contained this refrigerator in the kitchen. I regularly changed the water filter in the ice maker but it began tasting funny (like a mossy-algae taste) about a year ago. I don’t even use the ice maker anymore and fill trays with water for ice from the kitchen sink. I would like to get it fixed and was wondering how much parts and labor for something like this to be replaced is.
Well, the cost of repairing an old fridge like that would probably cost almost as much as buying a new one, and also, if you have to repair one big thing in it like that, then it’s only a matter of time ’til something else breaks down in it, too, so, frankly, if the fridge was in the house when you bought it, I would suggest you get a new one.
If money is tight, then look for discontinued last-year’s-model sales, like, I got a brand-new, but discontinued, dishwasher at Lowes for about half of what this year’s models go for, so shop around, there are deals to be had out there.
Thanks! By the way, Shabbat Shalom in advance to all my Jewish friends.
