1)  In the beginning of Parshas Pinchas, the וא"ו in the word שלום is split. In some ST it is split in the middle, in others it is towards the bottom. What’s the Chabad mesorah? Also: Is there any significance in the potential rendition of the word as שלים?[1]

2) I have a swing suspended from a tall tree.

3) I sometimes wake up at night and struggle to fall asleep. Is it OK to say Tehilim without saying Birchas haTorah first or should I rather read a book?[3]

4) When davening alone Friday evening we add

5) A lady ordered a car to fetch her from her vacation

6) Some fifteen years ago, American Samoa switched from following Asian time to American time. When visiting, do I keep Shabbos on the local Saturday or on the Asian Saturday?[6]

7) What is the minimum amount of flour to separate Challah from the dough and to say the brocho when doing so?[7]

8) When serving as Chazan, the Rebbe did not raise himself at Kedusha as is customary. Any known explanation?[8]

9)      Feedback: I ate some fruit and drank some juice. When I said an after-brocho for the juice, I didn’t have the fruit in mind. Need I say Borei Nefoshos again?[9]
