The various negative and derogatory comments from "audiogeek" on the iPodlounge website have been posted by a writer for competing publications. As he has trolled and posted obnoxious comments in a number of threads, picking fights with our readers and editors, he has been banned from the site, and we strongly oppose his repeated mischaracterizations of various products and our editorial opinions.
iPodlounge has repeatedly stated that it prefers speaker systems with balanced sound rather than bass- or treble-weighted sound. This deceptive comment, and all of audiogeek's other comments, will be removed from the site when we have finished archiving them for our records.

This makes me worried, I always like giving my input lately... I hope I don't get banned! :-
Back on the topic...
In the last part of the conclusion in the review it was stated:
"Now if only someone could figure out a way to miniaturize a true subwoofer for one of these things..."
If I am not mistaken, but doesn't the iStation from Logic3 have a miniature subwoofer? It even has the vented port on the side for the speaker.
Posted by christomapher in chicago on March 14, 2005 at 3:36 PM (PST)
Yup, the i-Station does include what they call a subwoofer, but under normal listening conditions it's way too underpowered to produce any sub-sonic thump. And there's no need to worry.

I've had JBL On Tour speakers for a few weeks now and I can say that they are some of the best "mini" speakers I've ever owned. I use them for my Ipod and they fill my living room and bedroom with ease. I also use them with my laptop while traveling and at home. They are well designed and provide a very clean sound for their price. For a sub 100 dollar speaker system, I would recommend the On Tour to anyone.
Posted by King Ding a Ling in Earth on March 14, 2005 at 6:31 PM (PST)
I bought the On Tour speakers a month or two ago as a leap of faith -- I had in my hands the On Stage and the Creatures on the same shopping day. But I liked the design and the portability of the On Tours so I leapt.
The sound has proven to be great -- just what I was looking for: small to medium room-filling sound, the above review talking about the "sparkle" of these speakers is apt.
The one thing they don't mention is the bass is funneled through an opening in the edge of the housing that sits underneath the arch when open. The sound changes quite dramatically depending on the surface these speakers are placed on. I have an heavy, solid wood bedside table where my On Tour normally resides and it sounds much deeper and richer than when sitting on a plastic or thin surface. Make sure these speakers are sitting on a hard flat surface for best results.
I also liked the build quality of these speakers. Much better than the iStation or (original) inMotions which feel cheap in comparison. No buyer's remorse whatsoever.

I have a set of JBL "On Tour's" sitting in a box waiting to go back to the store! Not to be disrespectful of other reviewers but I can get better sound out of my clock radio. The sound is thin and tinny to my ears. There is absolutely no discernable stereo separation and in the quieter passages of certain "light jazz" and "classical" mp3's the sound is so distorted as to be unlistenable even at a low volume. I may have a defective unit but buyer beware. My IM3's sound waaaay better but, unfortunately, do not accomodate my Agent18 case...which is what I was trying to work around with my ill fated purchase of the JBL's.
Posted by Aristillus in Maryland on March 18, 2005 at 9:22 AM (PST)
I just bought this the other day and am delighted with it.
I love the design and the sound.
Its cool to see people craning their necks to see this being set up as you pull it out and slide back the cover and reveal two neat little speakers and the volume buttons with tiny led between them, that are smartly understated until they light up.
It feels much hefty-er then you would think, it has the feel of cast alloy and the look to match.
The rubber strips (pads) on the bottom make it stay put nicely, when moving the Ipod around.
I loved the sound, that to me, was as rich and full as you are going to get in a package this small. It out plays the Sony ghetto blaster we have in the office to listen to tunes.
It's as load as I would want to listen to music, except when Leaning, drunken, into my big Bose speakers at home listening to the good OLD songs of my youth, with the volume set to 11. Not that I ever do that..........<);->
Seriously though, people are amazed that all that sound is coming from that little cool futuristic, space lookin thingy on your desk.
I don't just like it, I lerv it.
Oh ya, one more thing, some mentioned they don't care for the bag, but I think the material was chosen specifically to prevent scratches from repeated removal and stowage in bag.
If all else fails, a nice soft Crown Royal bag works great for all the Ipod accessories.
All you have to do is drink the bottle, and the bags free. Kind of a Win, Win situation

Just to say I picked these up in NY the other day after reading the reviews here, and I too am very impressed. Amazing sound for such small speakers. I was also very pleased that the power adaptor seems to work in both 110 and 220 volts (for us too-frequent travellers . Highly recommended.
Posted by iPodPartout in Old Europe on March 27, 2005 at 11:47 PM (PST)
Can anyone tell me how these peform outdoors? I'm looking for inexpensive way to listen to ipod whilst hanging out/ entertaining in small town garden. Sound would have to compete with low level traffic noise.
Posted by charliebird on April 12, 2005 at 4:48 AM (PST)
I just got these and I must say, that these are my favorite portable speakers of all. I have heard the InMotion and Travelsound and the OnTour have the most balanced sound, while I cant compare them side to side, I think these are the best for the money. THey were only $70 and they look very classy
Posted by ageofllamas on April 14, 2005 at 12:23 PM (PST)
I just bought these from Buy.com for $62.00 and all I have to say is these speakers rock! I've tested most of the small portable speakers and these are by far the best. Sound is crisp, clear, and most of all robust. I am just amazed at the amount of sound that comes out of these little speakers. They do fill a room - easily. They also work pretty good outside. In addition, they are very sturdy and come with a small cloth carry case. In summary, you would be hard-pressed to find a better portable speaker even at a much higher price. You will not be disappointed.
Posted by AnitaiPod on June 1, 2005 at 3:33 PM (PST)
Folks I have to agree that these speakers are awesome for what they are. Have had mine since april and use them constantly with my iPod. My job requires me to travel all the time and they are a life saver when Im in hotels all over the world that usually have very average radios or TV shows in languages I can't generally undrestand! Would recommend them to any traveller. My one question is, does anyone know where I might be able to get a better quality case for them other than the tatty cloth bag that comes with it?
Posted by flight on June 2, 2005 at 9:23 PM (PST)
i own this speaker and i think their great, the only thing i don't like about them is the fact that sometimes they close on me. and the cover covers the speakers and it sounds bad. but other then that they're awesome. "great speakers if i don't say myself".
Posted by Fly_J_Guy on July 12, 2005 at 11:14 PM (PST)
I just bought the OnTour, but can't get it to work with just the battery's. Mine seems to need the AC adaptor. Any ideas as to what I might be doing wrong, or might mine be defective?
Posted by gshep on July 19, 2005 at 6:12 AM (PST)
I'm considering buying JBL's On Tour or Pacific Rim's Cube speakers. I agree that the iM3s more bass than the On Tour, but it is too compressed for my taste. The On Tour seems a bit lacking in bass though. I haven't been able to listen try Pacific Rim's Cube speakers which are compared to iM3s in sound quality.
How does the sound quality compare between the On Tour and the Cube?
Posted by PeteHawkins on August 10, 2005 at 1:14 PM (PST)
Gee, my question is the same as Pete Hawkins. I am also trying to choose between JBL OnTour and the Pacific Rim Cube. The price difference isn't an issue. I want them mainly for light travel and just using in different rooms of the house. Also, for using my ipod as a clock radio to wake up to. I am not an audiophile, but want something that sounds pretty good. I tend to prefer not real bassy sound. Anyone have a suggestion? Thanks.
Posted by SuzeS on September 9, 2005 at 7:43 PM (PST)
Amazing...a real treasure. Can't believe I'll ever travel without them. Thanks so much for fabulous reviews.
My new On Tour speakers arrived at work today and I had to wait to get them home before trying them.
When I undid them I wondered about their capabilities and had a bit of a crisis of confidence due to the fact they were so light and small.
I have just set them up in my study and started playing the ipod through them. I am absolutely blown away....
I can't believe that such separation and balance could be possible from such a small and light-weight unit. The bass is completely brilliant although I take the point about ensuring the speakers rest on a solid surface. The sound fills a medium size room without distortion or any hint of tinniness. I am baffled as to how they do it...
They are worth every penny.
Posted by patchofpeace on December 7, 2005 at 3:25 PM (PST)
I've only recently discovered iLounge, great site! After 'finding' (which was a challenge) then reading all the speaker reviews I decided to try the JBL on-tour system.
This is a totally brilliant design reminescent of my friend Reinhold Weiss' products for Braun in the 50's & 60's. Simple, compact, visually neutral, beautifully made, a perfect match for Jonathan Ive's iPod and 100% functional, on tour is a prime example of what good industrial design is all about.
Beyond the presentation and appearance this unassuming device sounds exceptionally good all things considered!
My taste in music is catholic; from opera to house. True, you can't expect the same sound as a huge pair of hi-fi speakers with sub-woofer driven by a generous amp yet the sound is clean and accurate right up through full volume, which is perfectly adequate to comfortably fill the average living room.
The only possible improvement I can see would have been to have used AA batteries in lieu of AAA's as the former seem to be less expensive and to last longer than the latter.
As to the price, my on-tour was purchased from B&H in New York which I discovered on this site. At $64.95 and with excellent ground service from UPS it's a hard combination to beat.
I'd give this combination a solid A rating!

NASHVILLE -- Vancouver Canucks defenceman Kevin Bieksa left Friday night's game against the Nashville Predators with what the team called a lower-body injury.
The Canucks said that he would not return to the game.
After playing 7:20 of the first period, Bieksa took just two shifts in the second period before going back to the Vancouver locker room. Bieksa did not appear to be involved in any major collisions during the game.
In 17 games this season, Bieksa is tied for the Canucks team lead with five goals.
Martin St. Louis is a Ranger, Matt Moulson is a member of the Minnesota Wild and the Montreal Canadiens have Thomas Vanek. Look back at all the big name deals that went down.

Fedora Core 3 Preview
Old Skin, New Features
Version 3 of Red Hat's free community-supported Fedora Core distribution will be available by the time you read this article.On the surface, very little has changed,but under the hood,Core 3 has innovations designed to improve the user experience.We investigated the final release candidate,and here's what we found.
Many Linux users are skeptical when they hear about Fedora. The Fedora [1] distribution is based on tried and trusted Red Hat technology, but the name gives users no indication of this history. Red Hat officially handed over development of the end user version to the free software community some time ago. But this has not prevented Red Hat developers from contributing to the more critical components of the distribution. The experience they gain developing Fedora is then fed back into Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Update or New Install We used Yum to update a running Fedora Core 2 to Core 3 Release Candidate 5 in our lab. The update referred to here worked without any major difficulties; there were a few dependencies that needed some attention, but they were related to non-Fedora packets. And a fresh install using a DVD we had burnt in our lab worked perfectly. Updating to the final release will work in exactly the same way.

An Indian dance demonstrated by the Orissa Dance Academy
Sunday, May 12, 20134:00 PM - 6:00 PMWilliam Bristol Civic Auditorium16600 Civic Center Drive, Bellflower CA 90706
About Orissa Dance Academy Orissa Dance Academy is one of the premier cultural institutions of Orissa. Established in 1975 by the renowned Guru Gangadhar Pradhan, it is now run by Guru Aruna Mohanty. The Academy has made major contribuions in promoting and popularizing Odissi dance and music, as well as imparting intensive training to artists in India and abroad. Combining innovation with strong training in technique and pedagogy, the Academy's aesthetic is emblematic of excellence in the field. Many preeminent dancers have graduated from the ranks of the ODA and continue to make their mark in the field today.
The Academy's milestone achievement for many years was running one of the national Konark dance festivals. It now organizes the Dhauli Festival annually to create cultural awareness among the people. Another important feature of the cultural calendar is an annual festival held in San Diego, in collaboration with the Centre for World Music. Please see: http://www.orissadanceacademy.org/
About Guru Aruna Mohanty Dynamism, charisma, and talent makes Guru Aruna Mohanty is one of the finest Odissi artists in the field of Indian classical dance. Currently at the helm of the Bhubaneshwar-based Orissa Dance Academy, Mohanty combines an approach that cultivates the basic structure and techniques of Odissi dance while exploring unconventional approaches to dance and choreography.
Mohanty was trained and nurtured under the able guidance of Padmashree Guru Gangadhar Pradhan. She especially excels in the abhinaya (or expressive) aspect of Odissi. Beginning first as a student of the ODA, she has become a respected performer, teacher, choreographer, and administrator. She has received multiple awards and accolades for her contribution to the arts, including the Mahari Award (1997), Sanjukta Panigrahi Memorial National Award (2001), Government of India Fellowships, and the prestigious Sangeet Natak Akademi Puraskar Award (2010).
Mohanty has travelled all over the globe to present solo and group presentations in addition to workshops and lecture demonstrations. She has also convened important seminars on choreography in the Indian dance and the allied art forms of Odisha.
Mohanty is not only an eloquent performing artist, but has investigated the history and development of Odissi as a distinct tradition. She combines extensive research and the foundational techniques and lessons from her guru with innovative thinking to produce provocative choreographies. Selected items in her repertoire include Shrusti O Pralay, Varsha-Abhinsara, Kharavela, Gatha Odishi, and Krishna Sharanam.
Mohanty is an advisor to the Guru Kelucharan Mohapatra Odissi Research Centre. She serves as Vice President of the Odisha Sangeet Natak Akademi and was also a member of the Central Sangeet Natak Akademi – these are the two main arts institutes responsibly for promoting dance, music, and drama in India at the regional and national levels respectively.

I'll pass the word on to Darren, and see if we can stock some for you guys.
thanks bud
oo bump me
yes its true. Our gym owner just said he will be getting some soon..... as soon as possible.. He didnt know a price but he thinks it will be resonable. 30-35 range. He has a web sight
This is why i joined this sight. To find out what people knew about the short release of the supplement. Here in Fennimore all the boys took X-Mass. Alot of boys bear the stretch marks of growing muscle.
It is coming in soon guys. price should be around 29.99....
Estra, confirmed. It's in stock now, http://www.nutraplanet.com/product/g...-capsules.html
Im upset. Bulknutrition advertised it as the old Methoxy Gona version and sent me the Estra-4,9-diene-3,17-dione version. Of course i called and had a talk with the lead operator. I knew as soon as i cracked open the box and seen the clear bottles. Not cool. Oh well i will give it a try. It burns under my toung like the old formula did. Let ya know how it goes. I will update every week.
Ive been on the the new X-mass for well over a week now. I have noticed that i am irritated easily. The drive it has given me in the weight room is that of its older formula. GREAT! No noticeable weight gains due to my lower calorie diet. My bench has increased along with everything else. Squat, curls, and the endourance is mind blowing.
I do not regret buying this stuff now. Hope to see hardening of muscle and fat loss in near future.

Some of the greatest hits of the baroque include Antonio Vivaldi's Four Seasons Concertos, George Frideric Handel's Music for the Royal Fireworks and Water Music Suites, and Johann Sebastian Bach's Brandenburg Concertos.

Sunday Baroque offers great performances of their work by yesterday's and today's best performers. Fresh and inviting, genial and inspiring, and often surprisingly modern sounding, it's the perfect accompaniment for this unique day of the week, whether you're sleeping in, joining family and friends for a leisurely brunch, going to worship, or relaxing alone with the Sunday paper and a steaming mug of coffee.
Sunday Baroque. Fresh. Essential...for a Sunday state of mind.

If you believe that the cable news landscape is symptomatic of our two-party political system, then you also probably, and predictably, saw a different tone in last nights election results. Fox News presented its coverage with a patina of celebration, while MSNBC's took a more gloom and doom approach. But there was one important distinction between the two outlets: Fox News offered a far more balanced set of analysts for the election coverage than did MSNBC.Good to see some people finally catching on to just how much of a joke MSNBC is these days.
Almost all of the results from yesterday's midterm elections are in, and there is little question that the GOP has good reason to celebrate the returns. The U.S. House of Representatives has returned to Republican leadership and though it's premature to definitively say as much, many have seen this as a referendum on the Obama administration.
Fox News' key decision in their approach to covering the election last night was putting their heaviest hitters on the bench, choosing their up-and-comers Megyn Kelly and Bret Baier to serve as hosts of their coverage, an overt effort to have their news anchors cover the election results instead of their opinion hosts (as opposed to MSNBC.)
But not everyone saw it that way. Writing for the Washington Post, Dana Milbank was rather harsh in his critique, writing:
As Fox's Megyn Kelly announced that one Democratic senator, expected to lose big, was in a race "too close to call," she commented: "That's, uh, an interesting update." When Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass), said by Fox commentators to be endangered, cruised to an easy win, Kelly commented: "Alas."
The victory party would have to focus on the 60-seat gain Fox projected for Republicans in the House – an enormous win, though not at the upper end of the forecasts. Fox commentator Karl Rove, pleading for "perspective," said it still qualified as a "blowout evening." To be fair and balanced, Fox brought in a nominal Democrat, pollster Doug Schoen. "This is a complete repudiation of the Democratic Party," he proclaimed.
Milbank's understandable critique of Fox News' tone is diminished by his own lack of fairness in his reporting; it seems like he'd have the reader believe that Democratic pollster Doug Schoen was the lone left-of-center voice on the channel. The truth is, FNC offered a panoply of left-of-center voices, including Bob Beckel, Juan Williams, Joe Trippi , Geraldine Ferraro and Kirsten Powers among a handful of others. And, to be fair, there is significant criticism on the left that these pundits might not be the strongest voice for the progressive movement, but they are on the air, nonetheless.
But don't just take our word for it, read what other media critics had to say. Writing for Time's Tuned In blog James Poniewozik seemed to agree that Fox News was fairer than the lot:
To be fair, NBC did join coverage earlier, after an all-new Biggest Loser.) Fox News, for all its image as the Republican-friendly network, actually seemed to have the most reserved coverage in tone of the three big cablers, going with a more reserved set and less flashy graphics (granted, by cable news standards) than its competitors. A whiteboard was even employed.
Credit where due, Fox also had a more, well, balanced panel much of the night than its competitor MSNBC. Holding forth from left of center for Fox were the recently-high-profile Juan Williams and Democratic political guru Joe Trippi. MSNBC's main lineup, on the other hand, was basically its center-to-left lineup of nightly hosts: Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell.

BP Comment Quick Links
March 25, 2013 Transaction AnalysisYankees Trade for Vernon Wells
Signed INF-R Ronny Cedeno to a one-year deal. [3/23] Cedeno had a better season at the plate than you might think. He posted career-highs in various categories, including both components of OPS, and True Average. Although Cedeno didn't take an intentional walk in 2012 he still managed to set a new best in walk rate, too. This could be nothing or it could be an important piece of progress. Cedeno has always struck out more than you'd like because his swing features more muscle than you'd expect from a poor-hitting middle infielder. In a sense, Cedeno isn't much different from Tyler Greene, who the Astros are now rumored to be shopping. Marwin Gonzalez, a Rule 5 pick from last offseason, will split time with Cedeno at short. —R.J. Anderson

Lets you adjust the output level of each string pair.
Many products claim to be revolutionary but, more often than not, that claim falls short of expectations. This isn't the case with the Epiphone MM-50E professional mandolin.
The construction fundamentals for the MM-50E's rich, natural acoustic sound are ensured with a solid spruce top and gorgeous flamed maple back and sides. A rosewood fingerboard is fitted with dot inlays.
The MM-50E professional is the first mandolin that allows you to adjust the output level of each individual string pair, solving the inherent mandolin problem of unbalanced string pair volume.
The Epiphone MM-50E mandolin starts with the "Quad" NanoMAG pickup. Designed in cooperation with Shadow Germany—who have been making acoustic pickups for over 30 years—the NanoMAG is a unique, low-impedance humbucking pickup equipped with Samarium cobalt magnets that capture true acoustic tone and a wide range of harmonics. Under each string pair is a separate coil that picks up only the sound of that string pair with crosstalk separation of >85dB. Each of the mandolin's 4 output levels is controlled by 4 trimpots, which are discretely accessible from the top of the pickguard via a mini flathead screwdriver. Once set to your desired levels, you would typically never need to adjust the levels again.
Rather than loading down the mandolin with electronics and adversely affecting its natural acoustic tone, the Shadow system puts all the electronics inside the pickguard. This allows the Epiphone mandolin to respond and sound just like an acoustic mando should. On the pickguard are master volume, treble, and bass rotary controls, as well as an easy-access battery compartment using a lightweight, long lasting 2032 watch-style lithium battery. Even the pickup is mounted on the pickguard.
For added versatility—and to allow you to position it in the optimum location for your picking style—the NanoMag can slide back toward the bridge for a brighter tone, or forward toward the neck for a warmer tone.
For a great vintage look as well as enhanced tonal characteristics, the Epiphone MM-50E Professional mandolin features a very thin, hand-rubbed polyoil finish. Not satin, this 50% sheen finish looks and feels great, while allowing the wood to vibrate more freely.
With a history of making mandolins going back over 100 years, Epiphone knows how to make a great sounding mandolin. mandolin features classic "F" style specifications including a carved, solid Spruce top with traditional flamed maple back, sides, and neck. Multi-binding on the body and headstock, a classic mother-of-pearl "Flower Pot" headstock inlay, nickel hardware, vintage machine heads with pearloid buttons, and a Rosewood fingerboard and bridge pay tribute to Lloyd Loar's original "F" style design.
- Top material: solid sitka spruce
- Body material: flamed maple
- Neck: flamed maple
- Neck shape: "C" profile
- Neck joint: hand-fitted, glued-in

Cancer treatment can be a miserable experience during a terrifying time, and traveling many miles for that treatment can be inconvenient, expensive and even prohibitive.
The American Cancer Society wants to raise about $11 million to build and run a Hope Lodge in Omaha, where a patient who lives 50 or more miles away and a family member or friend can stay for free while the patient receives long-term treatment. The society expects the house, with 36 guest rooms, to be operational in 2015.
The lodge would relieve families in a cancer crisis of at least one pressure. The free housing would place a patient and his or her guest in a facility with people enduring similar crises, and ideally would provide a natural support system. The cancer society currently has 32 Hope Lodge homes around the country, including in Iowa City and Kansas City, Mo.
� Donations for construction and operation of a Hope Lodge in Omaha should go to:
American Cancer Society
9850 Nicholas St., Suite 200
Omaha, NE 68114
� Checks may go to the American Cancer Society with "Hope Lodge" in the memo line or may be made out to ACS Hope Lodge.
� To contribute by phone, call the American Cancer Society in Omaha at 402-393-5801 and go through the receptionist.
� To contribute online, go to www.hopelodgenebraska.org.
Darbi and Cody Warden of the Elkhorn area went to the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota in 2010 for surgery on what some doctors believed was an inoperable cancer tumor in Cody's brain. He spent five weeks at the Hope Lodge in Rochester, Minn., while undergoing radiation therapy following surgery that removed most of the tumor.
Cody Warden said it was remarkable to associate with the lodge's staff and other families. "They took care of me like I was their little brother," Warden, 40, said. "They treated me like family."
Darbi Warden said she and her husband made friends for life there, including couples from North Dakota and Wisconsin.
"I love the name 'Hope Lodge,' because it truly is hope in your darkest hour," she said. People staying there have an immediate connection and are able to share their stories and fears. "You're not alone," she said.
The American Cancer Society and its local campaign committee intend to place the Hope Lodge on 1.27 acres bounded on three sides by Dodge Street, 81st Street and Farnam Drive.
Doug Bottger, regional director of capital initiatives for the American Cancer Society, said the organization has raised 45 percent of the money and hopes to have it all by next spring.
Dr. Robert Langdon, president of Nebraska Cancer Specialists in Omaha and head of the Hope Lodge campaign committee, said the large house will provide a vital service for cancer patients. "I've had several patients who have struggled with lodging over the years," Langdon said.
Langdon said the spot where the Omaha home will go is centrally located to serve cancer patients treated at Methodist, Alegent Creighton Health and the Nebraska Medical Center. Growing cancer programs in Omaha increase the need for a Hope Lodge here, he said. The lodge is expected to start operations about a year before the opening of the Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center, the research tower and 108-bed inpatient treatment center at the Nebraska Medical Center.
Hope Lodge would be among several places for patients and families getting hospital care from Omaha providers or facilities. The Ronald McDonald House, 620 S. 38th Ave., serves children and families being seen at local medical facilities. Rainbow House, 7815 Harney St., serves the families and kids being treated at Children's Hospital & Medical Center. Children's has broken ground for a new Rainbow House at Farnam and Beverly Drives. The Ronald McDonald House and Rainbow House seek donations from their occupants but are free if no donation can be made.
Alegent Creighton Health offers discounted lodging at Hospitality House at Immanuel Medical Center. The Nebraska Medical Center has discounted hotel rooms in the Lied Transplant Center and in an area next to the transplant center. Methodist Hospital has lodging assistance programs at hotels through the cancer society and the hospital's foundation.
Staying at the Hope Lodge saved the Wardens more than $2,000 in hotel costs, and more on dinners, which sometimes are provided by Hope Lodge volunteers and supporters.
Cody Warden is working as an office equipment sales representative and doing well. Because some of the tumor remains, his prognosis is unclear.
The Wardens host a golf tournament each year to raise money for the cancer society and Hope Lodge.
"I just want people to get the best treatment and be where they need to be," Darbi Warden said.
Her husband liked to play cards with others in Hope Lodge and she used to work on the jigsaw puzzles in the house's common areas. Sometimes she would get stuck on a puzzle and someone else would come along and find the right piece.
It struck her as an excellent metaphor for the Wardens' Hope Lodge experience. When they got stuck, immersed in their worry and fear, someone in the house would help them see the way more clearly. She would think to herself: "Oh, I can get past this now."

Czech Republic 2 - Canada 5
CANADA ADVANCES TO IVAN HLINKA FINAL WITH 5-2 WIN OVER CZECH REPUBLIC BRECLAV, Czech Republic – Down 1-0 early in front of their home fans, the Czech Republic started to take a chippy approach to their semifinal game against Canada at the under-18 Memorial of Ivan Hlinka hockey tournament. Their strategy played right into the Canadians' hands. Canada scored a pair of power-play goals and beat the Czechs 5-2 Friday to advance to a fifth straight tournament final. "We like chippy," Canadian coach Todd Gill said. "We're Canadians, we want to play a chippy game if the refs allow it, but over here you never know. I told my guys to finish checks, keep sticks down ... and we stayed out of the box for the most part." Bo Horvat opened the scoring on the power play for Canada and added a third-period insurance goal. Team captain Sam Reinhart had another strong game with a power-play goal and three assists, while Nic Petan and Max Domi also scored. Lubos Rob scored both goals for the Czechs on the power play. The Czechs found themselves short-handed frequently early on, taking seven minor penalties in the first period. "It just got a little carried away at the start," Reinhart said. "It wasn't like they were really aggressive, it was just some unfortunate bounces, a delay of game, stuff like that. It enabled us to really take it to them early." The game was tied 1-1 after the opening 20 minutes despite Canada outshooting the Czechs 11-1. Rob scored on the Czech Republic's only shot of the first period, which came with just 12 seconds remaining. But Reinhart scored his third goal in as many games on a power play 1:13 into the second period to give Canada a lead it wouldn't relinquish. Reinhart also scored the game-winner in Canada's final preliminary-round game against Slovakia with just 53 seconds left in regulation. "He's been our ultimate leader," Gill said. "He just knows how to present himself. He's on the point on our power play, he kills penalties, he's scored some big goals five-on-five. And he's a leader in the dressing room. He's well respected." "I guess having a dad like that, he's taught him well," Gill added. Reinhart's father is Paul Reinhart, who had an 11-year career with the Atlanta/Calgary Flames and Vancouver Canucks. The crowd of roughly 500 in Breclav made its presence known, with fans chanting and beating drums. "They were loud," Gill said. "It's a totally different thing. It's almost like a soccer match over here with the drums and the chants, but they supported their club well." Canada will play Finland in Saturday's final. The Finns advanced with a 5-4 overtime win over archrival Sweden. "They play probably as close to a North American game as any country here," Gill said of the Finns. "We know they're going to come hard, they pass the puck very well, they're physical, you can't intimidate them. Should match up to be a great gold-medal final." Reinhart said playing a composed style will be key for Canada in the championship game. "Early on we weren't composed on the bench, or on the ice especially. We've really changed that throughout the tournament and that composure will be huge for us in the final." The Canadians have dominated this event, having won it the last four years and 16 times overall since 1991. |

Recently I saw a Facebook post pointing to an article. It caught my attention, and having never read that blog before I was curious as to what this post said. I decided to comment on the link, but needed a bit more space to treat this adequately - it's an intriguing topic to me. But first, let me do a quick recap of the article:
Basically, the author thought the idea that "God will never give you more than you can handle," was biblical and true - this reassured her, it sounded right. However, this isn't exactly what the Bible says… she is adapting 1 Corinthians 10:13:
No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it. (ESV)
The focus then moves to two ideas - temptation and ability. She says that "Temptation is very different from the vast, exhaustive list in life of anything that could happen to us. God doesn't say He won't give us what we can't handle. He says we won't be tempted beyond our ability." On ability, we are told that an exit is paired with ever temptation, and our ability is related to our maturity in Christ.
She concludes by saying that we will be given things we can not handle - she shares stories about losing children as well as the Biblical examples of Job as well as the sufferings of Paul.
I think there are some good things and bad things in this article, and the discussion surrounding it. Mainly, I want to speak to four of these - the context, defining temptation, the idea of beyond your ability, and the way of escape.
(1) The Context: This particular verse comes in a much larger chunk of scripture talking about eating meat sacrificed to idols. A lot of the Christians in Corinth came from a pagan background that was marked by sacrificing animals to idols. Therefore, those temples served as both restaurants and meat factories to make a profit from the dead carcasses. City culture revolved around these temples, then, so the Christians don't really know what to do with them. The idols aren't really gods, just carved pieces of wood - so can they eat the meat - or because of the symbolism should they avoid it? Paul gives some clarification. In Ch 8 he says not to eat in the temples, because a weaker Christian might see this and fall into worshiping in the temple because he saw you there and misunderstood what you were doing. Second, he shows himself of doing this in forfeiting his rights for the sanctification of others (ch 9). Finally, in ch 10 Paul warns them not to be idolaters, but if they unknowingly buy meat that was sacrificed to an idol, it's cool to eat it unless it hinders the mission of the church (ch 10-11:1).
We also have to note that this verse is in one part of this argument talking about the example of the Exodus generation who received all the blessings of God, yet still fell to idolatry. He says twice to not be idolaters (10:7, 10:14). And he warns them, take heed because it's when you think you are standing that you are most likely to fall. Then we get this famous verse 13. This is followed by a grand conclusion in 10:19-22
"What do I imply then? That food offered to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything? No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be participants with demons. You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons. Shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?" (1 Corinthians 10:19-22 ESV)
So, the specific temptation that Paul has in mind is eating meat sacrificed to idols,but let's look at this idea of temptation a little more.
(2) Temptation: I like this simple definition: "Temptation is that which moves us to sin." From this, there are three relevant things that can be said about temptation:
First, Temptation can be part of a "test" like in Job's case, or it can simply be the mundane aspects of life. If temptation is that which moves us to sin, specific testing can do that, but also a traffic jam, a woman writing a check in the express line, or running out of milk after you pour your cereal. These things all present the opportunity to sin. Furthermore, good things can be temptation. My education, friends, family, and possessions are really good things, but at times I have desired them more than God, which is idolatry and the root of all sin.
Second, you're not exceptional. I know we like to say pithy stuff like "I'm a snowflake - there's no one like me" but 1 Corinthians 10:13 says that you're not an exception; "no temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man." Therefore, all sin is common, you're not in a unique situation where your temptation is somehow different. Practically, this means that God's rules are not situational… I'm speculating here, but I'm sure there were some well-meaning Corinthians who were feasting in the pagan temples because their situation was different and they thought it wasn't sin for them. But this is clearly not the case, all temptation is common to man.
Third, Christ has been tempted in every way as we have, but without sin. I'm pulling this from Hebrews 4:15, and the benefit of this is that we have a high priest who can sympathize with us. So, not only is your situation common to man, it is also common to Christ.
With those three points being foundational, we can move on to the two big issues here: not being tempted beyond what your ability and having provided a way of escape.
(3) Beyond your ability: Here's where I hear this verse most often misinterpreted. It's almost like God is in Heaven planning out each person's day and he has John walking to Starbucks to get his morning coffee, but Susan is in line in front of him. Then the Son peeks over God's shoulder to look at His day-planner and say "woah woah woah, this isn't going to work. You know that Susan's beautiful and John struggles with lust. We have to have Susan stop to buy a newspaper or something so she's not in front of John, this is beyond John's ability." So God relents, and changes the plans for their days so that John will be protected from that temptation.
I don't believe this is quite right, though. Sure, God does supernaturally ordain our days and interactions, but perhaps this is not meant by "beyond your ability." If I was never tempted beyond my ability, then I would never sin, right? If I took a math test where no questions were beyond my skill and intelligence, I'd get them all correct. So what does this "beyond your ability" mean. I think there are two essential words implied, "In Christ." Romans 6 says we are either a slave to righteousness or a slave to sin. Bob Dylan says "It may be the devil or it may be the Lord, But you're gonna have to serve somebody." I think what Paul is really getting at here is that we will never have a temptation come along that we absolutely must give in to - we will never be salves to sin if we are in Christ. Look what my dawg John Calvin says regarding this:
"He exhorts them, however, to look to the Lord, because a temptation, however slight it may be, will straightway overcome us, and all will be over with us, if we rely upon our own strength. He speaks of the Lord, as faithful, not merely as being true to his promises, but as though he had said: The Lord is the sure guardian of his people, under whose protection you are safe, for he never leaves his people destitute. Accordingly, when he has received you under his protection, you have no cause to fear, provided you depend entirely upon him."
In the next paragraph, Calvin does say that Paul also has in mind limiting temptation that comes. So, in a sense, that wrong interpretation is half right… In God's sovereign rule, He has the power and authority to limit temptation. However, this doesn't mean more than we can handle on our own or else we would never sin. He will never let us drown under the weight of temptation, but as Americans we want this verse to mean that we will never feel the sting of water in our lungs.
One more mess to clean up before I move on. As a culture who loves to quote scriptures such as "God helps those who help themselves," "Cleanliness is next to godliness," and "Hate the sin but love the sinner," we often quote 1 Corinthians 10:13 as "God will never give us more than we can handle." This was what the blog post that inspired this blog post was about. In all actuality, God is being merciful to us in giving us more than we can handle on our own. By doing this, He shows us our need for Him, that we are small failures and He is perfect and strong. How awful would it be to have an easy life where you never saw a need for God, then wake up in hell one day? This is the curse of Romans 1 - I would much rather have a hard life that showed me my need for God, leading to an eternity with Him through Christ's sacrifice.
Now that that tangent's over, let's finish up this verse… "But with the temptation He will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it."
(4) The way of escape: Which Bible personality illustrates this point in every sermon? Joseph with Potiphar's wife when he runs away naked. And then the preacher says that whenever we feel we are trapped by sin, there is always a way of escape. Like with the idea of "beyond our ability" this is true, but I don't believe it's the whole truth.
First, the truth is that there is a way out. For the Corinthians, there would never be a situation in which they were forced to sin by eating the sacrificed meat. They could always go hungry or hit Taco Bell down the street. The same is true for us, we will never be put in a catch-22 where their only option is sin. There is always a righteous path to take. With each temptation, He will also provide the way of escape.
What we don't like is that this path of escape is never the path of least resistance. This path involves Joseph streaking, the Corinthians going hungry, Paul being beaten and imprisoned, and all the disciples dying a martyr's death. It's not a simple blue or red pill choice; the path of righteousness is difficult and the path of sin is easy - but the difficulty is worth it.
Now here's where I think we get it wrong, and that comes with the word "endure." Fleeing like Joseph is not enduring (As a side not, scripture says to fight temptation but always says to flee sexual temptation. I'm not sure what the significance of this is exactly, but it's interesting). So, if we are enduring we are not escaping, which makes me think that perhaps this way out is not something we find but something Christ has already provided. Christ has to be our refuge when we are tempted; only He is the way of escape. Apart from him we are salves to the temptation and slaves to sin. He is our way out.
Both people who read my blog probably see this as a "duh" statement, I do as well, but we so often forget it. If we look for purely human ways of escape, we miss the point of this verse; Christ has to be our escape. When we try to run away from a sin in our own strength another sin will capture us on our course. But the question still remains of how is Christ our escape? First, I think it has to do with a reminder that God is now our master. When we flee to Christ, He reminds us that we are bought with a price and no longer our own. This makes us see sin for what it is, deliberate disobedience to our creator, redeemer, sustainer, and master. Second, it has to do with our affections. When you look at the beauty of Christ and His gospel, sin begins to lose it's appeal. Naturally, your affections turn to Him rather than the sin. Third, through the indwelling Spirit Christ actually gives us strength. When we feel we have nothing left to fight with, Christ fights for us. This is the provided way of escape.
(Conclusion) So what does this mean for us? While doing some research on this topic I noticed a couple responses in my life. First, it inspired me to step up my game in fighting sin - as John Owen said "Be killing sin or sin will be killing you." The simple reminder of Christ's dominion of sin is inspiration to fight. Second, I began looking for the paths of escape. Personally, I fall on the side of the spectrum that focuses so much on the sovereignty of God that I forget about the responsibility of man. Looking at my responsibility made me examine the options to avoid sin in my own life. Third, I was drawn to Christ, my high priest, in mourning over my sins. I hope this post gives you similar reactions and many more. If you disagree with what I said, have other comments, or are bored, lets get some comments rolling. I never get comments on my blog.
[Sources: ESV Study Bible, Calvin's Commentary on 1 Cor, Articles on Desiring God]
The Bible presents sin by way of major concepts, principally lawlessness and faithlessness, expressed in an array of images: sin is the missing of a target, a wandering from the path, a straying from the fold. Sin is a hard heart and a stiff neck. Sin is blindness and deafness. It is both the overstepping of a line and the failure to reach it—both transgression and shortcoming.
Sin is a beast crouching at the door. In sin, people attack or evade or neglect their divine calling. These and other images suggest deviance: even when it is familiar, sin is never normal. Sin is disruption of created harmony and then resistance to divine restoration of that harmony. Above all, sin disrupts and resists the vital human relation to God.
In the New Testament, God never* commands His people to be something that they aren't. Rather, He tells them to stop being something they are not. All the commands for holiness are simply commands to be who you are. God's people are regenerated - given a new heart and sanctified - given a new nature. Therefore, in commanding us, God tells us to stop pretending we are something that we are not - slaves to sin - and actually be the men and women we are - slaves to righteousness.
*Never as far as I know, but feel free to prove me wrong. If you can give me an example, I'll happily change never to rarely.

MOUNT ZION, W.Va. -- Off the Big Otter exit of Interstate 79, out a winding two-lane road, on top of a grassy knoll sits a little piece of Americana from a bygone era. The Mt. Zion Drive-In Theater & Restaurant is a 90-minute drive from Charleston, but the relatively short trip is like traveling 50 years back in time.
Marshall and Virginia Bever bought the drive-in theater in 1979.
"That was the pinnacle of the drive-in era," recalls their daughter, Bonnie Sands, who works at the drive-in with her parents.
Originally from Craigsville, the Bevers were friends with the owner of the Craigsville Drive-In, a booming business in the late '70s. So when the Mount Zion drive-in, then known as Cook's Drive-In, became available, they made the move to Calhoun County. Sands remembered the family spending that first winter living in a room attached to the restaurant/snack bar.
In recent years, Sands said, there has been a resurgence of interest in drive-ins, but this newly rediscovered pleasure might be in jeopardy.
"There are rumors flying all around that we are going out of business because of the move toward digital prints. Do we plan to shut down? No. But if 35 mm film goes out of stock, yes, we would have to shut down. We wouldn't have a choice."
In many ways, Mt. Zion Drive-In holds tight to tradition. They still serve a large menu of movie fare, and the poles that once held the in-car speakers still divide the parking spaces. During intermission, they even show the "Ten Minute Clock," a short film that counts down the time remaining between movies with original drive-in ads from the '50s, '60s and '70s.
Over the years, Sands said, the drive-in has made many concessions to modernity. When CinemaScope came along, they accommodated the new wider movies by building wings onto the screen. And as sound technology advanced, they did away with the in-car speakers and installed an FM transmitter, which allowed patrons to listen to the stereo sound of their car speakers, or to bring radios and sit outside on lawn chairs.
But some advancements are just outside the realm of possibility for small operations like Mt. Zion.
"Our films still come on reels, which are going out of style. It costs more money to create and ship those prints than the new digital hard drives," Sands said. She estimated it would cost $85,000 to upgrade from 35 mm film to digital. "We just don't make that kind of money," she said.
In December, IHS Screen Digest reported that distribution of 35 mm film would be phased out by the end of 2013. Some distributors, like Technicolor, began closing 35 mm film labs in May.
The answer to Mt. Zion's problem, and a few other drive-ins like it, may come from an unlikely source. The automaker Honda has stepped in to save a least a few of the country's drive-ins with a contest called Project Drive-In.
An assistant manager of Honda's public relations, Jessica Fini, said, "We got word that the drive-ins across the country had to switch to digital projectors this year. We're a car company, and drive-ins are a car-related piece of Americana. We thought it was a great connection."

Awkward Pauses Presented By Eduardo Perez
That was a very nice awkward pause involving Pineda's "ten inch uhhh." Needless to say, I think this clip is much more memorable with the awkward silence and uncomfortable innuendo than the thousands of other forgettable Baseball Tonight segments that will run this year. Don't worry though, I'll spare you more jokes about Pineda's impressive tools or hard stuff.
