Example One: Despite local Ashkenazi custom, the Gra rules to say boray nephashoth with the name of Hashem, following the Jerusalem Talmud and not the Bavli. Example Two: The father makes a bracha when his son reaches bar misswah. He also makes a bracha in the repetition of the Amidah for Modim.
Example Four: What's the deadline for saying the morning shema? Halacha after halacha, the Gra rules according to the Yerushalmi. Why? Plus: The Bavli critiques itself as a book filled with doubts about the truth.
