Emergency element of this group. As soon as Rabbi Smason learns of a critical, emergency situation in
our shul, he will alert Julie Eisenberg, give her the name of the person in crisis, and emails will go out
immediately so we can begin saying Tehillim.

"The $2 Million Sacrifice"
This year’s NFL playoffs once again bring a high level of intrigue and excitement. Lost in the shuffle, however,
was Dallas Cowboy linebacker Sean Lee's absence from the season finale this past Sunday. Lee, slightly
incapacitated with a "tweaked hamstring", told the media after the game that the decision to not play was his. And
what an expensive absence it was: Lee's decision to sit out Sunday's game cost him a $2 million bonus. Entering
Sunday’s contest, Lee had been part of just over 82 percent of the team’s defensive plays. His contract included a
$2 million incentive if he played 80 percent of the Cowboys’ defensive snaps. However, with Lee missing
Sunday's game, he just barely dropped below the 80 percent threshold -- missing a bump in salary from $2.5
million to $4.5 million. With only a light injury and so much money to be gained, why didn't Sean Lee tell his
coaches he was OK, take the field for several plays, and collect an extra $2 million?
In making the decision to not play, Sean Lee said he didn't want to "disrespect" his teammates and coaches by
playing at less than 100%. The linebacker said, "It was me who decided to not play. It didn't feel like I was going
to be effective enough to help the football team ... If I had a couple extra days I probably could've played, but it
was completely my decision. I'm not going to disrespect my teammates and my coaches and be out there not
playing the right way." Remarkably, Lee didn't seem concerned with losing out on a huge sum of money, saying
that he has a "fantastic contract" and noting that owner Jerry Jones has been "very patient" with him during the
season.
Warren Buffet once said, "In looking for people to hire, you look for three qualities: integrity, intelligence, and
energy. And if they don't have the first, the other two will kill you." All of us regularly face situations when we're
forced to choose between doing the right thing, or to make ethical compromises with promises of great gain. How
do we decide what is right, and more importantly, what is right for us in our unique situation? Living with integrity
means keeping in the forefront of our mind the following Torah teaching: "The signature of the Holy One, blessed
be He, is truth." Let us strive to become individuals of outstanding honesty and integrity.

Parshas Vaeira Exodus 6:2 -- 9:35
G-d assures Moses that He will indeed redeem the Jewish people from slavery and bring them into the land of
Israel. After the Torah presents a detailed genealogy of the tribe of Levi (Moses' family), Moses and Aaron go
before Pharaoh to request a three-day hiatus from work so that the Jewish people can worship G-d in the desert.
Moses' staff is miraculously turned into a snake as a sign of their Divine mission. When the Egyptian sorcerers
counter by transforming their staffs into snakes as well, Moses' staff swallows up theirs. Even so, Pharaoh
adamantly refuses to free the Jewish people, and the series of ten gruesome plagues begins.
The first seven plagues are described in this week's Torah portion; blood, frogs, lice, a swarm of wild beasts,
pestilence, boils and hail. Moses goes down to the river to speak to the Egyptian king -- however, Pharaoh
remains in denial ('in d'Nile' -- get it?) continuing to refuse to free the Jewish people as his heart is hardened. The
portion comes to a close in the middle of these momentous events.
Rabbinic Ruminations
Did you hear the one about the Republican and Democrat who calmly discussed politics? In most cases that
could be the opening line to a joke. It might seem impossible in today's political climate to offer effective
messages that reach across the aisle on hot-button issues like same-sex marriage, national health insurance and
military spending. But, based on new research, there may be a way to craft messages that -- gasp! -- could lead
to politicians finding common ground. In a study published this month in Personality and Social Psychology
Bulletin, it is suggested that political advocates frequently make arguments grounded in their own morality, not the
values of those they want to persuade. This “moral empathy gap” is often too wide to span. Researchers
hypothesized, however, that arguments appealing to the moral values of those targeted for persuasion have the
potential to be effective in creating common ground and consensus.
To test these assumptions study participants were asked to write essays that try to persuade the other side. In one
scenario, both liberals and conservatives tended to write from their own moral foundations without, apparently,
considering the morality of their opponents. However, other participants were asked to re-frame political
arguments in the moral terms of the other side. For example, some were presented with arguments in favor of
universal health care that invoked either the value of fairness (i.e., health care is a right for all) or the value of
purity (i.e., preventable illness is unacceptable and therefore we need to reduce sickness). This and similar
studies did indeed confirm that arguing from moral foundations made a difference: Conservatives who heard the
purity argument for Obamacare became friendlier toward it. Will moral arguments be effective to convince Bernie
Sanders that a flat tax is a fair, sound fiscal policy, or persuade Donald Trump to liberalize his views on
immigration? Probably not. But this approach, the study suggests, may influence enough voters to change the
tone of political discourse in this country.
Judaism says that a successful discussion is built around the maxim: "People of goodwill who reason together will
reach a common conclusion." But why are good discussions, free of argumentative behavior, hard to find?
Perhaps it occurs because we don't know the difference between a discussion and an argument. The schools of
Hillel and Shammai are famous for their disputes in Jewish law. Jewish law today almost always agrees with the
school of Hillel. The Talmud explains why: ..... Hillel humbly mentioned the words of the other school before their
own. If you want to create common ground and consensus, discuss, don't argue.
Quote of the Day
Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy
today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn’t arrived yet. I have just one day, today,
and I’m going to be happy in it. – Groucho Marx

Joke of the Day
The manager of a large city zoo was drafting a letter to order a pair of animals. He sat at his computer and typed
the following sentence: "I would like to place an order for two mongooses, to be delivered at your earliest
convenience."
He stared at the screen, focusing on that odd word mongooses. Then he deleted the word and added another, so
that the sentence now read: "I would like to place an order for two mongeese, to be delivered at your earliest
convenience."
Again he stared at the screen, this time focusing on the new word, which seemed just as odd as the original one.
Finally, he deleted the whole sentence and started all over. "Everyone knows no full-stocked zoo should be
without a mongoose," he typed. "Please send us two of them."
