Lakewood Zmanim עש''ק פרשת בשלח שבת שירה תש''פ
Friday, February 7, 2020 / י״ב שבט תש״פ ערב שבת פרשת בשלח
-Candle lighting: 5:04 pm
-Shkia/sunset: 5:22 pm
Weather: Friday night: clear Low 26F. Winds 15 to 25 mph. Winds could gust over 40 mph. Shabbos day Clear hi 43
סגולה עצומה - שבת זו נקראת שבת שירה מפני שקוראים בה שירת הים. שבת זו מאירה באופן מיוחד ויש בה עת רצון עצומה ל 3 דברים רפואה, זיווג, פרנסה. בפרשה זו נזכר בפירוש הפעם הראשונה שה'הוא הרופא הגדול 'אני ה'רפאך'ולכן בשבת זו יש סגולה עצומה לרפואה כי התגלתה מידת הרחמנות של ה'לכן רצוי לבקש בשבת זו רפואה ובריאות
נאמר על זיווג ופרנסה שהם קשים כקריעת ים סוף וכמו שבפרשה זו נפתח הים, כך גם נפתח מזלו של האדם "בשבת קודש זו בכל שנה ושנה מתעוררים עלינו מהשמיים כל הטובות, חיים, שלום וגאולה, כלל ופרט, נפש וגוף, ורפואה ופרנסה טובה והכל מעורב עם ברכה וקדושה"
(הרבי מלובלין)
מנהג שבת שירה
הכרת טובה יש נוהגים שבשבת שירה, מפזרים בחוץ משירי מאכלי שבת, שיאכלום עופות הבית וציפורי הדרור שבחוץ. והטעם: כיוון שקוראים בשבת זו בפרשת בשלח שיש בה סיפור על המן שירד לישראל במדבר ושנאמר בו: "אכלוהו היום כי שבת היום לה', היום לא תמצאהו בשדה... ויהי ביום השביעי יצאו מן העם ללקוט, ולא מצאו." (שמות ט"ז)
אמרו רבותינו ז"ל, שאותם אנשים שיצאו ללקוט ביום השביעי רשעים היו, ידעו שהמן לא ירד בשבת כדבר משה, מה עשו?
הלכו בלילה ופזרו בשדה מן המן שהיה להם על מנת לאסוף אותו בבוקר ולהביאו למחנה לעיני כל העם, כדי שיאמרו שמשה בודה מצוות מליבו. ואז הם יצאו בבוקר ללקוט מן ולא מצאו. ומה קרה עם המן שהניחו בלילה? הגיעו הציפורים ולקחו אותו כדי שיאמנו דברי משה ושהשבת תהיה מקודשת אצל כל העם. משום כך
ראויות הציפורים ליטול שכרן. ומתי זה קורה? ביום שמזכירים את צדקתם, בפרשת בשלח.
ויש סיבה נוספת, יש אומרים שהם נוטלות שכר שירה שהן אומרות לקדוש ברוך הוא בצפצופן כל יום, ובשעה שאנו עומדים בפרשת שירה שלנו, אנו נזכרים בשירתם של הציפורים.
ועוד טעם: להורות כי הקדוש ברוך הוא המציא לישראל במדבר מזונותיהם ללא עמל ויגיעה כצפרים וכעופות המוצאות מזונותיהן בכל מקום. יש מן הפוסקים שהתנגדו למנהג זה, משום שאסור ליתן מזונות בשבת לפני בעלי חיים שאין מזונותיהן על האדם.

LFD Elections: Vote on Budget this Motzei Shabbos Tax increase
The fire district elections will take place this Saturday Feb 15 starting at 2 pm until 10:00 pm or longer if necessary at municipal hall.
The Lakewood Fire District budget is almost at 7 Million dollars annually ($6,915,734 to be exact) an increase of $300,000 from the previous year of 6.6 million. While there was $1 million spent on capital improvements in 2019, this year even though there is no improvements the budget is up due to hiring of new fire fighters. (In 2017 the budget was 4.9 Million)
Tax payers will also be asked to vote on a referendum to deny or allow allow the dept to purchase 2 fire trucks at the cost of $1.5 million (besides the budget) to replace aging fire engines. In a statement the district said the old engines have become obsolete and cost prohibitive. The project is anticipated to have a "minimal impact on the tax rate" according to the district as the old engines will be sold or traded in to offset the costs.
Some line items in the budget:
Salary and Wages $2,868,564.00
Fire Hydrants $564,000.00
Fringe Benefits $1,633,750.00

NYS Ed Postpones Guidelines for the Yeshivos after Public Opposition
Hamodia- (NEW YORK) -New York state will not implement its proposed guidelines on private-school education just yet, but will seek further feedback from the private-school community, after receiving massive opposition to the proposed guidelines, the Board of Regents said Monday.
"Following publication of the guidelines, a 60-day public-comment period commenced, during which private-school advocates, mostly from the yeshivah community, submitted over 140,000 comments opposing the guidelines."
Last July, the New York state Education Department published proposed guidelines for secular-studies instruction in private schools. The guidelines, which provide detailed instructions for how private schools must fulfill the longstanding legal requirement that they provide an education “substantially equivalent” to that provided in public schools, mandate specific courses and the minimum number of hours to be dedicated to the study of each. The time requirements would obligate yeshivos, with a four-day week, to teach an average of more than four hours per day of secular studies in seventh and eighth grades, and an average of more than three hours per day in high school. Among the required subjects are some that yeshiva parents object to.
Following publication of the guidelines, a 60-day public-comment period commenced, during which private-school advocates, mostly from the yeshivah community, submitted over 140,000 comments opposing the guidelines.
The guidelines only become law after a vote by the Board of Regents, but the Board has not yet voted on them at any of its monthly meetings.
At Monday’s meeting, according people present who spoke with Hamodia, Education Commissioner Shannon Tahoe said the Department has never received as many comments on any other issue as it did on these proposed guidelines. The Department recommended that, due to the overwhelming opposition, the Board of Regents not implement the guidelines yet, but go back to the private-school community for further discussion on the subject.
The Board accepted the Department’s recommendation, though Board Chancellor Betty Rosa, considered a proponent of strong oversight over private schools, again expressed her concern with what she views as inadequate secular education provided by some private schools.
Rosa said, according to the people at the meeting who spoke with Hamodia, that while many private schools provide a great education, in some schools students do not graduate with an adequate education, and she reiterated that the Education Department is responsible for education in both public and private schools.
