Can one be acceptable as a mashgiach- if ?.........

Can one be acceptable as a mashgiach for a cholov yisroel production- if  the prospective mashgiach consumes cholv stam / akum etc?......... The major Gedoilei Haposkim concluded that the operated cows, e.g. LDA, Bloat, C-Section, etc make the cow a "treifa" therefore, when one is of the illusion that he's drinking cholv stam / akum, etc it's actually "treif".

A Mashgiach that consumes treif on a constant basis shouldn't be used for any kosher production.

Slifkin is very upset at Rav Bleich going against Belsky's heter for anisakis but seemingly for a different reason than Belsky himself. Slifkin has become a bitter man and I think the tone is disrespectful. He quotes from a shiur that Hershel Schechter gave in London that R' Moishe supposedly dismissed any discussion to asser anisakis but fails to mention that this supposed interaction with R' Moishe is something that nobody knows about except Belsky and that gedolim do not believe the interaction happened the way Belsky claims it did.

I recently saw a teshuva from rav belski printed in his sefer shulchan helevi, in which he states that al pi halacha these surgeries do not render the animals tereifa

I'm really surprised at Professor Marc Shapiro. First he has been giving legitimacy to the most extreme fringe of not really orthodox rabbis and their warped halachic opinions. But now in 2012, he gives some credibility to the menuval Mordechai Tendler. And the OU's RCA lets Shapiro get away with it on their Seforim blog division of Tradition journal.

Neshama Carlebach, daughter of Shlomo, ran an ad for one of her concerts saying that men were welcome. Since Tendler is Neshama's "posek" Shapiro says he called Tendler to ask how it is mutter. Tendler claimed that the zaydeh R' Moshe is mattir like the daas yochid of one Rishon and the Seridei Aish unless someone actually has a tayvah for Neshama.

Shapiro does mention in a footnote that he looked up Igros Moshe and it turns out R' Moshe does not hold as Tendler claims he does. Shapiro should have written that into the body of the article instead of a hard to find footnote.
