The faculty of the Department of Meteorology has always been strongly committed to public service. By the late 1940s the public demanded more-sophisticated weather information. In 1948, when the School's Meteorological Observatory was receiving more than 2,500 phone calls a year for weather information, a graduate student began a system of hoisting color-coded flags atop the Mineral Industries Building to indicate upcoming conditions, a procedure that continued for ten years. The increase in the number of households with television brought new opportunities for public service weather forecasts, and in1957 Dr. Charles Hosler began a daily broadcast 'Make Hay with Hosler' on WFBG- TV, Altoona. The importance and appeal of such forecasts was emphasized unmistakably in the 1960s when the program was suspended due to the lack of adequate equipment to receive facsimile maps and forecasts directly from the National Meteorological Center in Washington, D.C. A group of Pennsylvania farmers spontaneously collected about $2,500 and presented it to the University, requesting continuation of the television forecasts. This effective demonstration by citizens had a great impact on the University administration.
Support for public service forecasting has grown, and the weather program in its various formats has continued to increase in popularity to become the most widely viewed program originated by the University. The program, now "Weather World" under the guidance of Frederick J. Gadomski, Paul G. Knight and Lee Grenci, is produced by the Penn State Weather Communications Group, a joint venture of the departments of Meteorology, Speech, and Learning and Telecommunications (which operates WPSX-TV for Penn State). This fifteen-minute nightly show provides not only a comprehensive weather forecast but also a wide variety of weather information. It is available to half a million homes via Pennsylvania Public Television Network and Panorama, an educational cable service.
The expanding public service function brought celebrity status to the university forecasters, who received more and more requests to give lectures on aspects of the weather to groups across the state. But this visibility was to have its disadvantage, as Dr. Hosler learned when his extensive research program on clouds, precipitation formation, and cloud-seeding was misinterpreted as contributing directly to a severe drought in the 1960s. The culmination of this unfortunate misconception was the enactment of state legislation that effectively disabled all useful research on weather modification at the University and brought to an abrupt end a valuable program of potential benefit to Pennsylvania agriculture.

Back by popular demand, Channel 51 returns to television sets Friday as part of several changes Lake County Cablevision is making this week.
WOGX Channel 51 was part of Cablevision's regular lineup until it was dropped in January when basic cable service for 25,000 subscribers was increased from 11 channels to 24.
Channel 51 is an independent broadcast station that offers movies, situation comedies, game shows and sports.
Tom Shimick, Cablevision general manager, said the company felt compelled to return the channel because it has received at least 150 letters from subscribers turned off by its absence.
"It's never easy to drop a channel and it's rare to put it back on the air once it is off," he said. "But I have never seen such a big response in my 12 years of management."
Shimick said it will cost the company about $18,000 in equipment to restore the station but it is money well spent. However, it will cost customers nothing but some readjustment.
In addition to returning Channel 51, Cablevision will add VH-1, which features adult contemporary music programming, and reassign some channel numbers.
-- MTV moves from Channel 24 to Channel 12.
-- WOFL-35 moves from Channel 12 to Channel 27.
-- PBS, WMFE-24, moves from Channel 27 to Channel 15.
-- The Financial News Network moves from Channel 15 to Channel 30.
-- WOGX-51 will be on cable Channel 31.
-- VH-1 will be on Channel 24.
The two additions expand basic cable service to 26 channels. A revised cable lineup and cable guide will be sent to customers with September bills.

A MAN who pocketed an ill woman’s mobile phone is behind bars today.
Teesside Crown Court heard how Graham Simms pretended to help a woman who was sitting on the floor in the street, before taking her phone “to sell for drugs”.
Prosecutor Sharon Elves told that at around 2am on January 21, the victim was sitting at the junction of Corporation Road and Linthorpe Road in Middlesbrough town when she was approached by Simms, of Leicester House, Eston.
The 35-year-old offered to walk her home but she remained sitting so the defendant sat with her.
The incident was caught on CCTV. The court heard that Simms was in breach of a 12-month jail sentence suspended for 12 months, imposed in April last year for an offence of burglary with intent to steal.
He also had other previous convictions including possession of cannabis, burglary and robbery.
Rebecca Brown, defending, said Simms should be given credit for his guilty plea to the charge of theft, though she conceded he had not pleaded guilty at the earliest opportunity.
Telling the court Simms had taken amphetamines on the night of the offence.
Simms was ordered to serve eight months from the previous sentence plus four months consecutively for the theft.

We have a nice 9 game NBA slate to work with tonight. These articles are not meant to be a picks article . This article is designed to identify value plays and good games to target for fantasy production. My suggestions are more geared towards cash games but you can certainly apply the philosophy in your tournaments as well. Also keep in mind these articles are written the night before or early morning so please pay attention to injury news as that is where value will open . The golden rule as discussed in our pod cast yesterday is minutes and usage are the key components in optimal line up construction. Let’s begin my suggestions are geared towards fan duel pricing and all players suggested I believe have the opportunity for 5x value at a minimum.
Plays for the Raptors but I like other players at their positions more. For Toronto my favorite player is Demarre Caroll as his minutes restrictions seem to have been lifted and he has been playing over 34 minutes his last three games and his salary is $3800 . He legitimately can give 6x return on his salary tonight with room for more even in a tough matchup against Jae Crowder. The Boston side Avery Bradley is already ruled out so I have interest in Marcus Smart. I have extreme interest in Isiah Thomastonight as his usage goes through the roof with Avery Bradley off the court. Al horford against a weak Toronto front line is also in play.
The Nets are the Coors Field of basketball and Atlanta has a 8.2 point higher total for this game than their season average. Dennis Schroeder Paul Millsapp and Dennis Schroeder are all in play. I’ll avoid Atlanta wings as minutes are hard to pinpoint. Nets are a fade for the same reasons as their minutes are all over the place.
All the James Harden he will be my anchor tonight. As for the Hornets Jeremy Lamb is still to cheap for his role he has a $1300 price difference on draft kings lock him in.
Lamarcus Aldridge should destroy the Bucks front court tonight and he has returned a minimum of 5x value the last 4 games. The Bucks are a stay away for me tonight, since this piece was written Lamarcus Aldridge has been scratched. Give me all the Leonard this evening.
Fantasy gold mine game. This is a game that you could stack in tournaments and you should get some exposure in your cash games . Both teams have higher totals than their season averages blazers +4.2 and Lakers +5.8. For Portland my favorite center on the slate Mason Plumlee as the lakers don’t defend the center position well. Aminu at power forward is way to cheap at $4600 and I prefer him over Mirotic tonight. c j McCollum has been lights out and even at this price point I don’t mind himtonight. His production has matched James Harden his last 4 games out at almost a 3 k discount and the matchup is awesome. As for the Lakers you have to consider Julius Randle who at this price point is paying 5x value as well. Last but not least look at Deangelo Russell who has seen an uptick in minutes against Damian Lillard defense count me in.
I’m. It in love with this game. Jon Leur is injured meaning Tobias Harris could return to the starting lineup which would limit my interest in him. K c p is in play as shooting guards against the kings is a thing. Boggie is ok but I like cheaper centers more on this slate.

Oktoberfest is a word I’ve been hearing since my high school days when alcohol was a restriction but a soon-to-be right of passage for most people my age. I heard it during college as I got together with my friends at Green Place (a famous drinking place in my University) and went to Fiamma Fresh Friday parties. And during my fresh grad days of after-work drinks with colleagues how many times in a week. Fast forward to my 28 year old self. I still enjoy an occasional drink here and there but boy do I choose those occasions well!
And all these years I just heard about Oktoberfest without really experiencing it. I’d treat having a bottle in October as a celebration of it but after my first Oktoberfest event care of German Club Manila’s 80th Oktoberfest in Manila, my idea of it has completely changed!

CollegePath LA is a community organization of volunteers who help public high school students explore careers, apply to college and thrive once they get there. We are developing a model project at John Marshall High School, an urban school in the Los Angeles Unified School District.
Thursday, Thursday. So good to see. Thursday afternoons were all we hoped they would be.
The Pythagorean theorem. Subject-verb agreement. Commas, colons and semi-colons. These are some of the topics that were tackled during a series of SAT preparation workshops sponsored in May 2018 by CollegePath LA.
Seven years ago, Gregory Contreras was a senior at John Marshall High School, waiting to hear from dozens of colleges to which he had applied. Now, he is set to graduate from the University of Southern California with a Master of Arts degree in economics.
Coming Up Next! We Need Your Help!
 Wanted! Volunteers to tutor students for the SATs.
This spring, CollegePath LA will once again offer assistance to students preparing to take SAT exams in March and April of 2019. Stay tuned for specific dates and details.
If you haven't reviewed the SATs recently, not to worry. We plan to hold a training session, or two, to bring you up to speed on current content and test-taking strategies.

- [Instructor] Xamarin is an amazing tool for writing cross-platform applications. This course is all about helping you make the leap from C# developer to mobile developer by introducing you to Xamarin development. I'm Matt Milner and I've been writing software for almost 20 years. In this course, I'm gonna give you a quick overview of Xamarin and how it works, and how you can use it to develop cross-platform applications. Then we're gonna get your Mac and Windows machines all set up so that you're ready to go developing for iOS, Android, and Windows.
We'll jump in and start building an application to manage training rooms at your company. We'll start with a shared library, learning about .NET standard and how we can share that code across all of our platforms. We'll build an Android application and learn about activities, and intents, as well as a layout. And we'll test in emulators and on an actual device. And we'll move over and build a native iOS application using that same shared library. We'll define view controllers and storyboards for iOS.
Then you'll learn how to navigate between your views there and we'll test on the iOS simulator, and provision an actual iOS device to test on hardware. And, finally, we'll build a universal Windows platform app to wrap it up and leverage that same shared library, and we'll test that out locally on the simulator and on the local machine. As a C# developer, I'm sure you're gonna love Xamarin for mobile development as much as I do, so let's get started.

Adrienne Robins has been telling the world about sustainability for more than 20 years. Starting out as a journalist in the 80s writing about green roofs, she moved into PR and communications working extensively in the construction, energy, recycling and innovation sectors. Almost three decades on, the stories have changed and the technology has evolved, but the frustration that we are still behind the curve remains.
During her career, Adrienne has considered and written about many different aspects of sustainability, from construction materials made from energy from waste bottom ash and household recycling efficiency to textile exporting, clothes leasing schemes, solar energy and storage, smart cities and autonomous vehicles. Two factors are consistent regardless of the project or technology: no one aspect works in isolation; and messaging needs to be simple and relatable.
For these reasons, Adrienne has spent much of her career unravelling and demystifying complex topics so that key audiences will not only bother to read past the first paragraph but also care about the outcomes. Clients have included Kingsway Group, Balfour Beatty, Conway, Covanta Energy, Yorkshire Water, The Recycling Association, Saica Group and a number of local authorities.
Key skills include the development and delivery of multi-stakeholder communications programmes, copywriting and providing useful, thought-provoking (rather than useless) information to journalists.
Adrienne is a judge for The National Recycling Awards and a passionate supporter of Maidstone United.

For the past few seasons straight hairare the main trend. To help in striving to achieve the ideal smoothness can ironing for the hair. In the case of the right choice of hair straighteners, each girl can get the desired hairstyle even at home. To get a fashionable styling without the cost of extra time, you will need two devices: a hairdryer with thermoregulation and an iron for straightening hair. It is necessary to acquire and protective means, which will preserve the health of your hair when exposed to a high temperature ironing and hair dryer. If you use a hair straightener, then you should buy thermoactive milk or a spray. Hair iron is best purchased with ceramic coating plates.
When using a hair straightener for youit is necessary to adhere to certain rules: do not use the appliance on damp or wet hair. If you do not have enough time for drying and subsequent straightening of hair, then you should prefer irons with simultaneous drying. The hair straightener is not difficult to use, however, the presence of various thermostats will be a positive moment. A hair iron will be more practical if it has a function such as ionization. If the device is equipped with a hinged cord, then it will be more convenient to work with it. Such fastening will not allow the cord to twist during hair straightening, another useful function that hair iron can be equipped with, is automatic shutdown in case of overheating.
It is clear that in choosing it is necessary to know whichironing for the hair is better. Now in the market you can see a considerable number of models of hair iron: from the most inexpensive, having metal plates, to the least dangerous, having ceramic plates. Hair iron with metal plates remain the most inexpensive option, however, use of such a rectifier is not recommended more than three times a month. If such a device is used regularly, your hair will lose its strength and shine.
Irons with ceramic plates usually costtwice as many, but they not only more effectively straighten hair, but also do not break their structure. Ceramic plates allow the iron to slide easily through the hair, making the naughty locks smoother. Almost all irons of this kind are equipped with thermoregulators, which helps to prevent damage to the hair. A low rate of heating is the only disadvantage of such irons.
Irons with ion-ceramic ortourmaline coating, are the choice of professionals. Such rectifiers are used not only in the home, but also in beauty salons, because they have the least negative impact on the health and appearance of the hair, in comparison with other species. There is an opinion that they are even useful, since they can glue flakes along the entire length of the hair, which makes them stronger and stronger. However, the main advantage of such irons is their ability to smooth even the most naughty locks.
- do not use the iron more than twice a week.
In this article we have listed the main pointsuse of iron for hair. Each girl has the right to choose for herself the model and brand of ironing, however it is important to say that there are several most common manufacturing companies: Philips, Vitek and Braun.

Amen. As Wade says, "Most churches have lost the concept of Jubilee".
That, my friend, is wonderful preaching! I went back and listened to the entire message and was incredibly blessed.
If you are saved,you won't have a problem giving. Titheing in the Old Testament was taught. Why would anyone think that 10% is too much to give.
When I first heard about tithing, I was not makeing a lot of money, it did not seem possible for me to tithe. After some time researching the scriptures I decided that I could not afford not to tithe. Who would not want God's blessings? In those early days people would say you can't tithe because you don't have enough money. Then came the time when they were making a lot of money and they said that tithing now was way too much money to give.
Giving is a heart matter.
Who you tithe to is the real issue here. Beware of false preachers!
While I really like this blog, I just do not understand why people here are so "negative" about tithing.
I understand about the mega pastors preaching gloom and doom if you do not tithe, but I do not understand any of the other issues with tithing. Is it that you do not want to give your money to the church or do you want to give your money to other causes or what? Seriously, not trying to be confrontational. I am just trying to figure out what is wrong with tithing?
I am going to interject this. If you have a sermon that beats you up, calls you names such as robbers, thieves, robbing from God etc. That is a false sermon and you should run from it as fast as you can.
We are God's children, he is not about to call us names. When he sees us he sees Christ and we are precious to him. We have the ability to call God daddy, to approach the throne directly, to cry, to be honest with God, to crawl up on his lap and have him put his arms around us. This was something not available to all in the Old Testament. They had to go through a list of rituals, and then through a High Priest to get to God. So if you want to appeal to the OT for the Covenant, you have to do this too. It's unnecessary because of Christ and his life, death, burial and resurrection. To go back to the Old Covenant is to do as the Jews did in Paul's day when they were stuck in the Old Testament and Paul was telling them a whole new message of Grace, love and freedom. They didn't get it either.
I love the third comment, "if you are saved..."
Yes, and also if you are saved you have enough discernment to know when some money-hungry preacher is out for your wallet.
What Wade is saying in the sermon is so true. He doesn't need a huge building or fancy surroundings to preach the gospel. What a wonderful thing, even though the same Kool-aid drinkers come on here again and again in support of the tithing prosperity gospel.
You're preaching in the wrong place. I think most of the readers here are over it.
Go back to your own church and start a class or better yet a "group" on some made-up topic so you can browbeat and scare people with curses over tithing and make them never want to go to church again.
That's what you people do best.
No New testament writer preached any sermon or wrote anything about New Testament believers being obligated to a any of the three Old Testament tithes.
If its not preached at all as an obligation in the New Testament.
I appreciate the fact that at least one overseer of Christ's sheep is teaching sound doctrine.
He is certainly in the minority. People love their "sacred cow" traditions.
The letter to the Galatians needs to be read, studied, and seared into hearts and minds.
Teaching storehouse tithing demonstrates, at a minimum, a misunderstanding of the relationship of the Old (Mosaic) Covenant to the New Covenant disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Christ came to set the captives free, but mere men want to lead them back into slavery.
At least he is being honest with what he believes instead of what the bible says. Think about it. If the bible said what Wade states, wouldn't it be best if he at least said, the bible says__________ .
I do appreciate Wade stating his message is his beliefs instead of the bible says. It does keep things neatly separated.
One can follow Wade's reasoning why Tithing is not biblical in the new covenant. Please follow Wade's blog posts from this comment link.
James, we are not negative about tithing or, as we say in this century, giving 10%. It’s the way giving 10% is preached that is wrong.
It is an odd contradiction that the same preachers who Sunday after Sunday get up and proclaim that they believing in teaching the Bible as literally true then twist scripture to mean something that it does not teach.
We are a people of blessings not curses. We are a people of freedom living above the law; not a people trying to obey the minute requirements of a law that not one of us can obey anyway.
We are called to give freely and abundantly without regard to what others give or don’t give and without regard to some promised reward for our alleged obedience.
Well Wade certainly disagrees with the late Homer Lindsay Jr. at FBXJax. W.D., isn't Homer one of your heroes?
"Well Wade certainly disagrees with the late Homer Lindsay Jr. at FBXJax. W.D., isn't Homer one of your heroes?"
Sorry but scripture trumps a mega-church preacher. 2 Corinthians 9:7.
I agree that giving would go up.
Someone who can afford to give $20 a week would do it instead of giving nothing. What difference does $20 a week matter if you're being cursed anyway if it's not 10 percent. Why give anything?
My husband and I give a certain portion of our income, more now than we did when we were poor and barely surviving. However, I do not believe in a legalistic amount. I think it was Stuart Briscoe, when asked about how much we should give, quipped, "For most people , probably a little bit more." No amounts or percentages.
One thing to take into consideration now, as opposed to the long ago past is this. Back in those days, there were no social programs to support the poor, the widows, the disabled. These folks frequently starved to death and were homeless. The church took care of these folks in their churches, providing for them in practical ways. The churches were know for their support of one another.
Today our government takes a large chunk of our income for entitlement programs to care for the homeless, etc.
Today, in some churches, the money goes to supporting the exorbitant salaries of fat cat preachers like Ed Young Jr. Why should a person who is living hand to mouth tithe to support the new gourmet coffee bar?
What would be wrong with allowing the Holy Spirit to guide my giving?
Wow! If Wade says we are free from the tithe then what more needs to be said since he's an expert on all things spiritual and Biblical.
How does one determine if what they give is of the Spirit? Maybe one way is to discover if what we give exalts the name of Christ, helps reach people for Christ and equips the Christians to be more Christ like.
The whining about salaries (not from you here Tom) needs to stop. It comes across as being jealous that the preacher makes more than you. Just sounds sad.
"Wow! If Wade says we are free from the tithe then what more needs to be said since he's an expert on all things spiritual and Biblical."
As my granddad used to say, anonymous, "Put that in your pipe and smoke it."
What a strange thing to say. Instead of making a veiled ad-hominen attack, why don't you lay our your case for tithing?
Wade, thank you for understanding and communicating God's grace.
Let me explain it another way, "Just because Wade says something is true doesn't make it so."
There are more than plenty of great Biblical scholars who agree that tithing is Biblical so I would be hesitant to throw the baby out with the bathwater just because some Oklahoma preacher says it ain't so. If you want those other opinions, just Google tithing and they will appear for your in-depth study.
This has nothing to do with what preacher or Bible scholar says what, but what does scripture say. Scripture is the final authority and all you need to do is check it out for yourself and see if what Wade is saying isn't so. But just like the gospel not everyone is going to be able to see it or embrace it. That is where the Holy Spirit comes in just as He comes into giving.
There is a serious problem with what Wade said. That is....it is not being shouted from the housetops across our Southern Baptist Convention. I am an SBC pastor of 40 years and I thank God for the visionary leadership of Wade. If you want to give ten percent, that is fine. You may want to give fifty percent, but no one should be told to give a mandatory tithe or you are robbing God and cursed.He's right, trust God and if the money does not come in, listen to what God is saying about a new direction.BTW, I am not a mega church pastor and receive only $1,400.00 a month for a part-time pastorate.
One very interesting aspect of Emmanuel - Enid is that during the offering, they encourage anyone who has a need to take up to $20- (only cash, but to leave the checks) from the offering plate. And if they need more to come and see the pastors and that they would be helped.
They've been doing that ever since Wade became their pastor. I was curious because our church was looking at different ways to receive the offering. I emailed Emmanuel and asked if anybody ever took them up on invitation to take money from the plate and I was sent a copy of a letter that a college student wrote to the church thanking them for allowing her to take money. She drove to Enid from Stillwater Oklahoma every week to care for her dying grandfather, attended one of the services on Sunday, and took money from the plate to pay for her gas. Her letter was very moving.
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy and faith: these ought ye to have done, AND NOT TO LEAVE THE OTHER UNDONE.
Isn't the other, tithe, to be done?
That is pretty clear to me. So only the scribes and Pharasees need to continue to tithe? I don't think so. Am I not right thinking the Lord was saying to do all of these, pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin and do the weightier matters , judgment,mercy, and faith?
You ask to be enlightened on why Jesus spoke positively about the tithein Mattew 23:23.
Jesus words were directed to Pharisees who lived under the old covenant”. Jesus also “commended offering sacrifices in the temple" to the Pharisees IN THE SAME TEXT (Matthew 5:23-24).
Are you desiring to take your bulls and goats to church next Sunday and offer them on the altar too--along with your tithe?
Or will you believe the Old Covenant system of Hebrew worship has been abolished in the New Covenant?
Bill, judgement, mercy, and faith may have been in the OT law, but that doesn't mean they are not in the NT Covenant. Are you suggesting that only part of Jesus's words are to be believed?
While we are on the TITHE, ad nauseam, were in the NT did Jesus say THE TITHE SHALL NOT BE GIVEN ANYMORE? Where?
While we are on the topic of Old Covenant laws "WHERE DID JESUS EVERY SAY, EVEN ONCE, THAT YOU WERE NO LONGER TO CELBRATE THE FEASTS OF ISRAEL, THE MORNING SACRIFICES, AND ALL THE CEREMONIAL LAWS OF ISRAEL?"
"and receive only $1,400.00 a month for a part-time pastorate."
Let's see. If part time means you preach two services on Sunday, about a hour per service, and one on Wednesday, same amount of time. Boy I sure would like a part time job that pays me $500/hour. Where do I sign up in my little town that is on the skids.
"While we are on the topic of Old Covenant laws "WHERE DID JESUS EVERY SAY, EVEN ONCE, THAT YOU WERE NO LONGER TO CELBRATE THE FEASTS OF ISRAEL, THE MORNING SACRIFICES, AND ALL THE CEREMONIAL LAWS OF ISRAEL?"
Since there are no video recordings, we really can be sure when and where he said it, but just keep the faith and all will be well.
I was explaining what I made at the church to demonstrate the fact that I was not making an exorberent salary. Your understanding of the pastorate is most naive and unfortunate.
The notion that God requires all members of a church to give 10% of their income to the church (or to anyone or anything else) is not only not taught in the Bible, it is an inherently unjust concept.
Even our corrupt, secular government recognizes the inequity of demanding the same percentage of income from the poor and the wealthy. Thus we have a graduated tax system that requires a lesser percent from those who have little than is required from those who have more.
It's obvious that it's a far greater burden for someone who makes $20,000 a year to contribute $2,000 than it is for someone who makes $20 million a year to contribute $2 million.
I have known very wealthy people who feel they have done their duty to God financially by contributing 10% of their income to church when they easily could (and probably should) be far more generous.
And I have known poor people who ought to be receiving assistance from their church who are made to feel guilty because they have to choose between giving 10% of whatever income they might have to the church and making sure their family's basic needs are taken care of.
This sort of teaching is absurdly immoral, and any attempt to justify it is no different from those who Jesus criticized for claiming to follow the letter of God's law but missed the spirit of it because their hearts were hard and far from God.
It is a simple as this -- giving 10% of your income to a church is not required by God, and anyone who says otherwise is lying to you, either deliberately or out of ignorance of the truth.
I am just trying to figure out what is wrong with tithing?
It is limiting. It is teaching a "law" where the Holy Spirit is more radical.
It is none of my business how much you give. That is between you and the Holy Spirit. Too bad more pastors don't understand this.
Here's a thought why not try reading Matt 23:23 in context.
If you get tithing out of that whole section of scripture then you are as out of touch as the people Jesus is rebuking.
"How does one determine if what they give is of the Spirit? Maybe one way is to discover if what we give exalts the name of Christ, helps reach people for Christ and equips the Christians to be more Christ like."
It exhalts the Name of Christ when you help a single mom fix her car to get to work because she is struggling.
You seem to think God only likes the big showy things. Typical mega church thinking.
It does not exhalt the Name of Christ when your pastor makes a ton of money and expects those struggling to pay his high salary. That mocks God.
"Even our corrupt, secular government recognizes the inequity of demanding the same percentage of income from the poor and the wealthy. Thus we have a graduated tax system that requires a lesser percent from those who have little than is required from those who have more."
yes. And part of the OC tithe system was a tithe for the poor among them who did not tithe because they had no crops or animals to tithe.
If only they carried that part over....instead they teach the poor to tithe to help pay their high salary at the mega church!
And they forget God was chastizing the PRIESTS in Malichai for being so greedy.
Matt 5: 17-18 (Jesus Himself "fulfilled the Law becaue He kept it perfectly. He talks about the "new covenant" at the Last Supper"
14 He wiped out the written Law with its rules. The Law was against us. It opposed us. He took it away and nailed it to the cross. 15 He took away the weapons of the powers and authorities. He made a public show of them. He won the battle over them by dying on the cross.
16 So don't let anyone judge you because of what you eat or drink. Don't let anyone judge you about holy days. I'm talking about special feasts and New Moons and Sabbath days. 17 They are only a shadow of the things that were going to come. But what is real is found in Christ.
I tried to point this out to my "pastor" in a private meeting a few months ago. I was only treated with contempt and disdain, and was told I was being "cut loose."
These men have a "religious" mindset that enables them to perpetuate false teachings, such as "storehouse tithing," that are a flat out denial of the Gospel of Christ.
It is sad when seminary trained men do not know how the Bible works.
Hint: everything is for our learning, but not everything directly applies.
You said:"It is sad when seminary trained men do not know how the Bible works."
Thank the CR for that. These men are the rulers of their kingdoms.
I imagine that the majority of you who agree with Wade never tithed in the first place and now you have a preacher that supports your view. And why is it that you always manage to turn a discussion of tithing into your personal views of how much a preacher should or shouldn't make. If you don't like your pastors salary then get on the Personnel or Budget committee and do something about it instead of bad mouthing him all over the universe.
"I believe God prospers you and blesses you according to His graces and His gifts which he gives to you freely and without measure."
The only reason the United States has prospered for so long is the ability of Government to print and borrow. That Day is soon to End and then we will see how these churches survive saying "God Prosper You" because we are a broke country.
Amen! to your comments. Our government can see how the poor should pay a smaller percentage in taxes, but preachers who demand the tithe from everybody no matter what their income CAN'T see it?
That does make them look like Pharisees who just focus on the letter of the law without any overall understanding of "what we're trying to accomplish here."
Your comments made it very clear how the tithe is a burden to some and more like a tip for others. Why can't a preacher just say, "Give as you are able."
The other huge part is what gets done with the money that is given. Does it matter what gets done with it? Are we to cheerfully give to a wealthy pastor? Why? I think Christians should give to something that matters, that truly helps somebody somewhere. What good is being done if the money allows pastors and other church staff to go on fancier vacations?
The more I think about it, the more immoral it becomes. What if you have a job as a construction worker and your wife works as a waitress. The preacher, who has lots more money, education, social and political connections, etc. is demanding your money. That is immoral. Of course they don't say "give your money to me." They say it's for "the cause of Christ,", "winning souls," "reaching the lost for Christ." What the heck do those phrases even mean? They are awfully vague and can mean anything. Besides if the preacher was all that worried about the lost, he'd make sacrifices himself. He wouldn't be touring "the Holy Land," he'd be in the rotten places of the world trying to help somebody.
Apparently this means there are No Poor Christians such as in Africa or any other poor country around the world (what was it? "without measure?" to Christians)""
Yeah, I disagree with this sort of thinking, too. It simply does not line up with what we see played out in the Word.
It actually sounds very Joel Osteenish. It sounds like Mac, too.
Yet, God "blessed" Lottie Moon who starved to death in China.
Teaching a "tithe" for the New Covenant is wrong. But so is teaching a caste system of God's blessing of material wealth for some "special Christians".
I think Wade may be confusing "spiritual abundance" for material blessing.
It's obvious to me that you have not, as have I, listened to the entire message. Your conclusion is really off base.
The ENTIRE message was about the graces and gifts of God to us IN OUR JUBILEE JESUS CHRIST. The gifts and graces referred to in the message is the "spiritual abundance" to which you refer. The point is, you give according to your means, in response to the goodness of God to your in your Jubilee.
Good for Wade! It is nice to finally read that some pastors and ministries are stepping up and speaking out about the "doctrine" of tithing or prosperity; that's really what it is all about, the prosperity of the church or church leadership, I should say. There is absolutely nothing wrong with tithing, if that's what you want to call your giving, but please recognize the Old Testament tithe teachings were for the Levitical priests.
Jesus became our New Covenant and overcame OT law so that we are no longer bound to it; I recently wrote a blog about this, so I will stop here. I totally agree with Pastor Wade , and applaud his leading his church into the truth of the word.
iampastorswife > Tithe or Be Ye Cursed!
The reason that most baptist preachers teach that an OT law is still in effect today is because they don't have faith that the people will give otherwise.
Wade has shown that the fear is unfounded.
So, Baptist preachers, you are free to preach what the Bible teaches about giving in the NT now.
Telling people that they are free to give as the Holy Spirit directs is just as effective (perhaps more) than calling them thieves.
1. Preachers who reject that the Old Testament moral law is still valid today.
2. Preachers and Seminary professors who teach that the biblical principle of storehouse tithing is not valid today.
3. Churches who hold no one accountable for their actions.
4. Seminaries who are churning out Calvinist pastors who have no place to go in today's SBC churches.
5. SBC leaders who promote planting new churches as an evangelism strategy when it is really for the purpose of providing places for Calvinist pastors to work.
6. The devaluing of SBC state conventions and local associations.
7. Seminary trustees who will not stand up against Seminary presidents who are promoting Calvinism.
8. Pastors who preach that the use of beverage alcohol is acceptable in moderation for the Christian.
9. Seminary trustees who defer to the Seminary president instead of providing biblical oversight.
10. The withdrawal of Christians from society instead of being salt and light.
How about churches that don't hold the pastor accountable?
Weren't you a Calvinist pastor at one point?
Yes, Calvinist pastors shouldn't have a place to work.
Almost as bad as the dollar.
Weren't you a Calvinist at one point?
Who does the Seminary president think he is?
Does that include acting in R rated movies?
Jesus fulfilled the law. He sent us the Holy Spirit convict us of our sin. I suppose Les thinks the law (outward appearance) is better than inward conviction.
You mean like Paul? (Good one)But I will remind Les that Jesus told Peter: The sons are free.
How about churches that don't hold the pastor accountable? EXACTLY!
Weren't you a Calvinist pastor at one point? And I will add that some of them might be going to SGM churches since Mohler has backed the Mahaney scandal.
The SBC has no business supporting Acts 29. That I agree with. Ezell? Are you listening? We do not like the vulgar Driscoll and do not want more Driscoll churches in the SBC!
The local church does not have to allow this! Stop following the leaders and be a church. In any event, some state assoc are as corrupt as the SBC.
Many of them do not know what Calvinism is! The trustees are mainly sycophants of the leader and rubber stamp everything.
Most trustees are so enamoured of being around the celebrity, they cannot think straight.
Pastors need to get real jobs. They cannot preach salt and light when they are isolated in their bubble. Let them go to work and report to a gay boss before they tell us how to live in the real world.
Same with Mohler and all the other celebs who tell us how to live. Mohler says get married young and have lots of kids. Have HIS kids done this? No. Mohler only had 2 kids.
they are all about do as I say not as I do. their own rules never apply to them. Just look at what CJ Mahaney is doing right now! Which Mohler totally supports!
Anonymous 6:54, your math is rather suspect here. The anonymous who posted his salary said he made $1400 per month not week. Say he gives those three sermons a week that you mentioned, over a 4 week period, that means he's preached 12 sermons. Not just 3. Add in the preparation time for each sermon, and he's making a far less of an hourly wage than $500 per hour. I'd say he'd be making $10-$15 per hour. It's more than minimum wage, but when you consider this is part time, and he likely doesn't get benefits from his church... then you have a preacher who can't support his family on preaching alone.
"Giving is a heart issue."
Not tithing. Giving. We are told in the new covenant to be cheerful givers. What we give, and where we give it to, is between us and God. Not us and the pastor.
Can you direct me to the blog post where you talked about a certain seminary professor who recently published a book on the whole tithing/giving issue.
I don't remember how far back in your blog history it was when you wrote about it.
Why doesn't Wade tell us that this information he is stating is what God's word says? There can be a huge gap between what we believe and what God's word says. It is possible, for Wade to be honest, he can't. It seems he may be over-spiritualizing. Something preachers ought to not do.
My break with tithing happened when I learned the Hebrews gave 1/3 of their income instead of 1/10. All the arguments for the tithe start to break down after that. It is no longer a carry over, but a modification. Why must we give 10% instead of 33%?
Also, in my studies of Islam, I found out that the poor in some sects are exempt from giving and pilgrimages. I have become fond of this idea when I have struggled financially, even though Islam has no mandate over me.
The Bible does mandate that I support my pastor (1 Tim 5:18), but it does not tell me how much to support him with.
Also, I should mention that the first time that I stopped tithing as an adult was when I repeatedly overdrew my bank account while funding my collegiate education. I thought that God certainly wanted me to pay my bills before tithing. An overdrawn account meant that I had no access to money to tithe. The bank ate my checks for all the money I owed them.
You men shouldn't read that. You might sin by learning something from a woman.
Nevermind I found it. It's in last month's blogs. The book is written by David Croteau: 4 Perspectives on Tithing.
I'm going to place my order.
"When you get in trouble don't call on God. You better call on your lawyer, banker, doctor or friends because you are going to need THEM when you don't trust GOD."
How about Johnny Hunt having to Call on the Doctor for his Prostrate Cancer and his depression.
Frank Pollard who's call on the Doctor didn't even cure him of Parkinson's Disease.
Fred Winters, a Southern Baptist pastor was killed during a morning worship service by a gunman who reportedly suffered from mental illness caused by Lyme disease.
Look , things happen and sometimes they happen to you, so the preacher can say the Devils got you or even God is judging you because of your tithing record.
You just made my argument for catechisms. :) If I did not already believe in believers baptism, I would really suggest that new converts be told what is expected of them before they sign on any dotted lines figuratively or literally.
Oklahoma’s Baptist Convention recently appointed a thorough-going Reformed man, Wade Burleson, senior pastor of Emmanuel Baptist Church, Enid, OK, as their President. Wade is as sound as a bell and a brilliant pastor, evangelist and organiser.
I am pastoring a church plant where we don't "take up" an offering, but have offering stations and encourage people to give as a part of worship, not compulsion. Recently the head of the church plant committee that oversees us asked, "Do you think that is the best way to take up tithes?" I answered simply, "Yes - we desire generous givers, not terrified tithers."
It's not just that tithing doesn't apply because we're not under the Law. There's even more about tithing that pastors are leaving out. For example, under the tithe system, the only ones who had to tithe were farmers, and only farmers who lived within the Holy Land. If you were a scribe or a carpenter (or something like that), you didn't have to tithe at all! This is very different from the idea -- commonly preached -- that the tithe represents 10% of *everyone's* income.
The tithe is *not* a thank offering for God's provision. The basic idea behind the tithe is that the *land* belongs to God, so that everyone who makes his/her living off the land (*viz.* is a farmer) must give 10% of it.
So, for those pastors who think that tithing still applies today, go ahead and collect it -- but make sure that you only collect it from those who are farming within the Holy Land, and make sure that you collect it in the form of animals or crops!

What is the best food in the Okinawa. We've got the answer in here.
The owner was in Central America for 5 years and had lots of American and Mexican food, then finally found that "Taco is No1, really delicious".We are here to show you and want you to know that Mexican Taco is really delicious!

Okinawa is one of Japan's southern prefectures, and consists of hundreds of the Ryukyu Islands and very famous place as a tourist resort.
Sabotentacos is in Nago, which is a city located in the northern part of Okinawa Island.
Nago is a tourist town. The many beaches draw many Okinawans, mainland Japanese, Americans and other tourists to the northern part of the island.
Nago city market opened 1962 used to be the important part of market business in Nago for a long time. But the number of new supermarkets has been increasing these days, some people get lost interests in shopping in the Market that retains no trace of its past prosperity.
Nago City Market was renewed on April in 2011. We want to change the market and get back people to the Nago City Market again.
The market filled with fresh fish, meat, and produce stands, restaurants and goods shops.
HIRO is the main chef in SabotenTacos.

He graduated from cooking school, he started working at many kinds of restaurants, then he found what he really wants to cook in his life.
He will show you unique style Taco you have never had.
We are very happy if you want to open a party in Sabotentacos.

REVIEW: Debuting in 1985, Yie Ar Kung-Fu is a 8-bit fighting game where the main character, named Oolong, fights against various martial arts masters to win the title of "Grand Master" and honor the memory of his father. In the arcade version, the player fights against 11 other martial artists (5 to 13 in the home versions). Yie Ar Kung-Fu is the first fighting game to feature a variety of unique martial arts-based characters, fighting styles, and stages.
While originally inspired from early Kung-Fu and martial arts films, this basic "trait" of characters fighting against one another in different locations is something that would later be used in nearly all future competitive fighting games. Furthermore, Yie Ar Kung-Fu was the first video game to feature two character life bars at the top of the screen which drained into the letters "K.O"... another iconic trademark that nearly all future fighting games would adapt.
Life bars that drain into the letters "KO".
At the time of its release, Yie Ar Kung-Fu was a noticeably colorful and sharp-looking video game. The character animation was indeed eye-catching in 1985 and definitely what you'd call "next gen" for the time. Back then, characters in video games were not known to move so "smoothly" on screen. The unique background environments were also notable and added to the immersiveness of the game. For an 8-bit video game, the characters of Yie Ar Kung-Fu had impressive style and personality, much more-so than most other fighters who appeared in other popular martial arts games at the time (such as Karate Champ).
Yie Ar Kung-Fu's gameplay is intuitive and simple. The basic controls include: Moving (left or right), Jump, High Attack, Middle Attack, and Low Attack. Avoiding enemy projectiles and attacks is an important aspect of the gameplay and requires the player to "jump over" said attacks. On that note, Yie Ar Kung-Fu featured some of the very first fighting game fundamentals that would later become a staple in future fighting games.
Inspiration for the first stage of Street Fighter?
The main character Oolong can perform a total of 16 different attacks. CPU opponents have far fewer attacks, but many can use projectiles, weapons, and other tricks. Regardless of the attack that defeats the opponent, male opponents will comically fall unconscious lying on their backs with their legs apart (while twitching their feet), while female characters always fall on their sides. This visual aspect is still a hilarious and memorable trademark of the game, to this day. When the player gains an extra life, the word "xie xie" is heard (Mandarin for "thank you").
Yie Ar King-Fu became the second best-selling computer game in 1986 in the United Kingdom. After its arcade debut, the title was later ported to the MSX, Commodore 64, Amiga, ZX Spectrum, and NES. Yie Ar Kung-Fu was later released on Xbox Live Arcade (Xbox 360) on July 18, 2007 with updated graphics, and was included in the Nintendo DS in the compilation, Konami Classics Series: Arcade Hits.
My earliest memories of Yie Ar Kung-Fu were playing the game at arcades in the 80's, possibly while being held by my mother and/or father (and eventually standing on a crate to reach the controls). As an 80's kid, I loved martial arts and I loved Bruce Lee... so Yie Ar Kung-Fu was right up my alley. When the console version came out, of course I had to have it!
My father was a computer wiz in the early 80's, so I was treated to the "best" home version of the game at the time... undoubtedly the Amiga port (nearly arcade perfect). Yie Ar was definitely one of my favorite games at the time, and really was one of the only "fighting games" even available for home platforms (AKA computers) at the time. Little did I know, I would grow up to be a fighting game connoisseur/critic, and end up loving fighting games for over 30 years. Hmm, maybe all that practice in Yie Ar Kung Fu actually paid off.
Yie Ar Kung-Fu was very much an early Street Fighter. If Konami saw the game's true potential back then, perhaps they could've expanded the gameplay and characters in sequels... and who knows... maybe we would've been playing Yie Ar Kung-Fu: 3rd Strike years later if Capcom didn't take the reins like they did when they released Street Fighter II.

In the last talk, we discussed the first level or stage of full concentration: the first jhana.
There are three other levels of jhana briefly described below.
In the second jhana, the first two factors needed to achieve the first level (initial and sustained applications of thought) disappear. Thus there is no thinking involved, only the three factors of joy, happiness and a stronger one-pointedness of mind remain.
In the third jhana, the factor of joy fades away. Happiness remains and equanimity becomes stronger as well as concentration (one pointedness).
Practice and progression with the jhanas builds concentration. Concentration and mindfulness work together to see the true nature of reality. It is very worthwhile to strengthen your concentration.
Don’t set reaching the first jhana as a goal or trying to reach the other jhanas until you have sufficiently been able to attain the first jhana many times. Merely, follow the steps as outlined in two talks and see what happens.

Most businesses or not-for-profit organisations will provide a range of products or services, but always ensure you maintain a focus on your core business.
Understanding your core focus, and the strengths that you deliver better than competitors, lets you build a sustainable base for your business or organisation. Through your core focus you will be able to identify the key points that differentiate yourself from your competitors. These aspects should form the basis of your marketing communications, enabling you to leverage these differences and demonstrate why they are of value.
Regardless of industry, all businesses and not-for-profit organisations will have at least one other competitor. Businesses need to consider what alternatives exist to their product or service, while not-for-profit organisations need to recognise that stakeholders can invest their time or funds in other organisations.
Your core focus should enable you to develop ongoing interest from customers and stakeholders, encouraging repeat purchases or recommendations. Building loyalty demonstrates that there is recognition into the value of your core focus.
Your products and services should reinforce your core focus.
While you may introduce other products or services, they should complement your core focus and reinforce points of differentiation.
As an example, Apple maintains a core focus on style, which began through its iMac range and continued through the introduction of new products, including the iPod, iPhone and iPad. While each of these products focus on different needs and have differing target markets, the core focus on style and simplicity has remained. This base enabled Apple to enter new markets, while leveraging its existing strengths.
Similarly, understanding your core focus lets you consider opportunities, while maintaining your key point of differentiation.
Even Nintendo, which began as a playing card company, had several ventures that failed, (including taxis and food) until the company recognised its core focus is entertainment. Understanding this core strength, enabled Nintendo to enter the toy industry and family entertainment through its gaming consoles.
New products or services should solidify the foundations that have been established through your core focus. Entering unconnected areas, can spread resources too thinly, resulting in diminished outcomes.

This blog post is the first of a two-part series in response to the Wired article of Oct 14, 2014, "How Microsoft Appointed Itself Sheriff of the Internet." [McM14] I find some problems with this article that raise questions about the depth of research into some elements of the story, and an appearance of bias in how "unintended consequences" are presented.

A new infosec era? Or a new infosec error?
For the last few years, I have been participating in a Department of Homeland Security sponsored effort to develop principles and applications for the evaluation of information and communication technology (ICT) research. If you are not familiar with the Menlo Report, you can find a description in Michael Bailey, David Dittrich, Erin Kenneally, and Douglas Maughan. The Menlo Report. Security & Privacy, IEEE, 10(2):71–75, March/April 2012.
On March 31, 2012, the Honeynet Project published a draft Code of Conduct and a statement about Ethics in Computer Security Research: Kelihos.B/Hlux.B botnet takedown.
The initial draft of the Code of Conduct was drawn from concepts described in the The Menlo Report: Ethical Principles Guiding Information and Communication Technology Research that was published in the United States Federal Register on December 28, 2011 for public comment. The Code of Conduct was refined through discussion within the Legal and Ethics Committee and volunteer Honeynet Project members to help make it workable within the structure of the Honeynet Project membership for evaluating the ethics of future research activities.

What makes "killer" bees so deadly?
When bees attacked a Texas couple over the weekend, it seemed like a scene out of a horror film, according to the way one of the victims described the scene to the Associated Press. More than 30,000 bees swarmed the couple as they exercised their small horses. At first, the woman and one of the horses jumped into the pool to avoid the stings. There were so many bees that the sky turned dark, as if it was night, she said.
The couple eventually escaped into the safety of their house, covered in bee stings, but the horses suffered a fate much worse. The first horse died before help arrived; the second died several hours later despite the efforts of an equestrian veterinarian. Five hens also died in the attack. According to the AP, the bees are being tested to see if they are Africanized or "killer" bees.
The ordeal comes just weeks after a 62-year-old Texas man died when he was attacked by 40,000 bees. In March, two Tampa Bay public park employees survived after being attacked by about 100,000 bees.
According to experts at the University of Illinois' Department of Entomology, there are about 40 fatal bee attacks each year. The reason Africanized bee attacks are more deadly, explains Dr. May Berenbaum, a professor at the school, has more to do with the sheer number of stings than the actual bee venom.
With killer bees, "the venom is not more toxic," she explained to CBSNews.com. Rather, when killer bees are disturbed, "they are more likely to pursue the source of disturbance more consistently."
"Bee venom is a cocktail of biologically active components that are designed to inflict pain. The honey bee stings only defensively -- they don't try to kill, they try to educate," Berenbaum said. The pain is meant to warn predators -- in this case, the humans that disturbed the hive. The venom also sends a signal to fellow bees, marking the predator. This accounts for the repeated stings.
Killer bee attacks are so much more aggressive because when a killer bee hive is disturbed, the entire colony attacks. By comparison, when a European honey bee hive is disturbed, only about 10 percent of the bees will attack.
"If you can't escape that's when the fatalities occur," said Berenbaum.
Killer bees are a mixed breed of African and European honey bees. They made their way to the U.S. in 1990, traveling north from Brazil, where they were first introduced in 1957.
The attacks started growing in frequency around 2011, when fatal attacks were reported in Arizona and Texas, as well as aggressive attacks in California and Florida. Berenbaum says this has to do with expanding populations, rather than a biological change in the bees.
"One limit on the spread of Africanized bees is cold temperatures, they can't over winter," she said. "If winters are getting milder, there are more places that they'll persist."
Additionally, as the killer bees spread to new territory, they are encountering people who are not accustomed to dealing with them.
"Honey bees have been in the U.S. since the 17th century, so people have had a long time to get used to them," she said. Any time a new species moves into an area, though, there is "always a learning curve" and people are still learning to steer clear of killer bees.

If just the thought of a trip to the dentist makes you feel somewhat anxious, then you are not alone! Dental anxiety is reported to occur in up to 75% of people visiting the dentist in some form or another. At Lifepath Wellness Dental, your complete comfort and well-being during your next dental visit are extremely important to us, which is one reason we offer sedation dentistry options for patients wanting to minimize their anxiety during their dental visit.
Sedation Dentistry has helped many people manage their dental phobias and has enabled them to take the steps needed to get the dental care they need. We welcome you to book a consultation appointment to see if Sedation Dentistry is right for you!
So what type of Sedation Dentistry is best for me?
When considering which type of sedation dentistry may be right for you, it is important to disclose to your Lifepath Dentist any drug or medications you use so that our Chestermere dentists can select the appropriate method for you. We suggest that you bring a detailed list of your medical history, including any medications and nutritional supplements you may be taking. Contact Lifepath Wellness Dental, Chestermere Sedation Dentist, to book your initial consultation appointment.
Sedation Dentistry allows people who are experiencing dental anxiety or fear to stop avoiding regular dental hygiene and periodontal treatments. Routine dental care, such as dental hygiene visits, is essential in preventing more complex dental problems. By following recommended routine care and maintenance, patients can avoid the very thing they fear and end up with fewer visits to the dentist!
Another benefit of Sedation is that the perception of time that a patient experiences during a visit feels like minutes rather than long periods of time. Therefore, your Chestermere dentist can perform longer, more complex procedures in a single visit rather than several visits.
Since fewer appointments mean that treatments like the replacement of missing teeth, wisdom teeth extractions, smile makeovers, implants or bridges, as well as root canals and other complex dental treatments are no longer out of reach for patients with dental anxiety.
The good news is that sedation dentistry is very safe. At Lifepath Wellness Dental, we ensure the safety of our Sedation Dentistry patients by using monitoring equipment during the procedure, including a pulse oximeter and oxygen equipment. Our Dentists are also CPR-trained and are required to have reversal medication agents on hand in the rare case of an adverse reaction to the sedatives.
If you have any questions or concerns about Sedation Dentistry, please let us know. At Lifepath Wellness Dental, we are happy to take the time to make sure you are informed and feel completely comfortable with your upcoming treatment.
Sedation dentistry is often referred to as sleep dentistry. However, the term “Sleep Dentistry” can be misleading. When we use sedatives, you are not actually asleep, though you may feel quite sleepy due to the effects of the sedatives. Note that the term sleep dentistry is often associated with the use of general anesthesia. The use of general anesthesia in dentistry is not considered to be Sedation Dentistry.
Most insurance coverages typically do not include Sedation Dentistry; however, some sedation dentistry procedures may be covered based on your treatment. Since each extended health plan is unique, it’s best to check with your dental insurance company to determine if you may be eligible for coverage. At Lifepath Wellness Dental, our dental team can assist you with this process and with making the necessary financial arrangements.
If you have booked a Sedation Dentistry appointment, we require you to be accompanied by a responsible caregiver who can accompany you home. After the appointment, it is recommended that the caregiver stays with you until the effects of the sedation are gone.

It's a new year, and that itself may motivate you to clean out your home. For starters, renting a dumpster is a great idea! When it comes to renting a dumpster, most people think the biggest size is always the best. Theoretically, the more space you've got to dump your junk in, the better. However, there's more disadvantages to having a larger dumpster rental than they are advantages for a smaller one. Larger dumpsters take up more space and cost more, and is simply unneeded for something like spring cleaning. Here at Green City Waste & Recycling in Denver, we want homeowners to understand that renting a smaller dumpster for their home cleanups makes everything easier. Check out the top 5 reasons you should be renting a small dumpster!
In most cases, when you rent a dumpster in Denver you'll have to keep it in your driveway. Having it in your driveway shouldn't be a problem. In fact, it's more convenient as you won't have to move heavy items like furniture and appliances down to the street. So even if you have a tight driveway, you'll have no problem whatsoever with a smaller dumpster rental.
On the other hand, renting a much larger dumpster can prove to be a hassle. Bigger dumpsters may not work atop your driveway, and unless you have a city permit to place it on the street, it'll be on your lawn instead. That can hurt your grass, tearing it up and leaving it dead for months afterward. If you're looking to protect your home, take the smaller route with a lighter, smaller dumpster rental.
That makes sense. When you rent a bigger dumpster, you'll be paying more for it than you would with a smaller version. So, before you pick up the phone to order one for yourself, think about how much junk you really have lying about your home. You'd be surprised how easy it is to fit bulky items inside just a 10-yard roll-off dumpster. Don't make the mistake of renting a dumpster one size too big, and not use half the capacity you're paying for. Even if you're not sure, start small. A smaller dumpster rental beats out your municipal trash bin by a longshot, and once you begin to dump your junk you'll truly know if you need to rent another dumpster.
Your first thought about renting a dumpster may have been, "Dumpsters are ugly, why would I want that outside my home."
We understand where you're coming from. It's easy to think about restaurants and public places that not only look disgusting, but have a smell to go with it. However, you're not renting garbage. Here at Green City Waste & Recycling in Denver, we take care of our roll-off dumpsters, making sure they are nice and clean after every use before we let them back out. We keep them rust and damage-free, so you won't feel embarrassed renting a dumpster from us. The best part is a small dumpster won't be an eyesore to you or your neighbors while it's in your possession. You may even call it ‘pretty.' Just don't plan to keep it, after all you're filling it with your useless junk.
Larger dumpsters immediately lead off with questions. "Where are you to put it?" "Where will it least affect my home?" "How many people need to transport the dumpster, especially when its full?" Avoid those questions, and make it easy on yourself with a smaller dumpster. It takes minutes for a small dumpster rental to find itself atop your driveway. It simply rolls right off our delivery truck. From there, you position where you want the dumpster to be, so it works for you. Then fill it up and when you want it out of your sight, it's out of your sight in as little time as possible.
When you rent a smaller dumpster, you're not stuck with what you've got. If it turns out you need more space to get rid of junk inside your home, there's always another dumpster waiting for you. Simply call Green City Waste & Recycling to order another dumpster, and we'll be there to drop off a new dumpster and pick up the one you've already filled. This is better for you, as you will still be able to get rid of all the garbage lying about your house and not have a large dumpster blocking off your entire driveway. Better yet, this will keep your costs to a minimum, which will make you and your wallet very happy.
No matter your reason for cleaning out your home – whether it be for a move, remodeling or just so you have a clean space – make it an easy affair with a small dumpster rental. Green City Waste & Recycling in Denver is here for all your dumpster rental needs. We're not only reliable, we're simple to work with and affordable! To learn more about renting a dumpster and our pricing, feel free to give us a call at (800) 528-7089 or contact us online!
