Interview With Crimethinc.
From Mask Magazine – Interview by Hanna Hurr
To Change Everything, Start Anywhere
The radical milieu in the U.S. is vibrant and complex, but few projects last very long. Generations shift rapidly, and so do our projects. CrimethInc. Ex-Workers' Collective seems to be an exception.
If you've ever lived in a punk house, participated in running an infoshop or social center, gone to an anarchist book fair or protest convergence, chances are you've seen CrimethInc. posters pinned to the walls, copies of Recipes for Disaster or Days of War, Nights of Love on the bookshelves, or stacks of Fighting for Our Lives pamphlets lying around. Perhaps you read the"Letter from Anarchists" at your local Occupy camp. There are few contemporary anarchist organizations whose work has passed through so many hands and been read by so many people as the CrimethInc. Ex-Workers' Collective. In its twenty years of activity, CrimethInc. has distributed hundreds of thousands of books, posters, magazines, and stickers to countless people on all continents including Antarctica.
The idea that history is something we make by our actions, not something that merely happens to us, is central to CrimethInc.'s approach. In their familiar, high-fidelity way, they encourage people to take this history into their own hands. Tempting us to grab the steering wheel of our own lives and turn toward something that enables a more livable existence. Though the collective members remain in anonymity – some twenty years later! – the idea somehow persists that CrimethInc. can be anyone. (more…)

In 2008, the American Institute of Architects released its first BIM contract document—AIA E202 Building Information Modeling Protocol Exhibit—which outlined five "levels of development" (LOD 100-500) for defining the amount of detail in a particular BIM model. E202 provided basic definitions of each LOD but left a lot open to interpretation.
"The E202 was a huge first step in that it provided the first viable vehicle for defining a BIM model at the element level and enabling downstream users to rely on it," says James Bedrick, FAIA, LEED AP, Founder and Principal of AEC Process Engineering (www.aecpe.com). "Practitioners found, though, that the LOD definitions were being interpreted differently, and that there was a need for more clarity. What does LOD 200 specifically mean, for example, for a door?"
None of the LODs offered a graphical representation of what a model at that level would look like or detailed instructions for how to use models in each LOD for a variety of disciplines. The document, which the AIA has since updated and published as the AIA G202-2013 Project Building Information Modeling Protocol Form (June 2013), had no specific rules or requirements for exactly what's in a model at each level. As a result, design firms, general contractors, and subcontractors have no idea exactly what they would be handing off or receiving by way of the BIM model.
Level of Development Specification Definitions
• LOD 100 — The model element may be graphically represented in the model with a symbol or other generic representation, but does not satisfy the requirements for LOD 200. Information related to the model element (i.e., cost/sf, tonnage of HVAC, etc.) can be derived from other model elements.
• LOD 200 — The model element is graphically represented within the model as a generic system, object, or assembly with approximate quantities, size, shape, location, and orientation. Nongraphic information may also be attached to the model element.
• LOD 300 — The model element is graphically represented within the model as a specific system, object, or assembly in terms of quantity, size, shape, location, and orientation. Non-graphic information may also be attached to the model element.
• LOD 350 — The model element is graphically represented within the model as a specific system, object, or assembly in terms of quantity, size, shape, orientation, and interfaces with other building systems. Nongraphic information may also be attached to the model element.
• LOD 400 — The model element is graphically represented within the model as a specific system, object, or assembly in terms of size, shape, location, quantity, and orientation with detailing, fabrication, assembly, and installation information. Nongraphic information may also be attached to the model element.
• LOD 500 — The model element is a field-verified representation in terms of size, shape, location, quantity, and orientation. Nongraphic information may also be attached to the model element.
Source: BIMForum and American Institute of Architects
A new standard promises to lend much-needed clarity to the BIM model detail issue. BIMForum, a multidisciplinary group of BIM users, has released its first BIM deliverable document, the Level of Development Specification. Working under an agreement with the AIA, the BIMForum LOD committee added context and meaning to the AIA G202-2013 definitions for levels 100, 200, 300, and 400, and added a new level (350) for trade coordination. It enables Building Teams to specify and articulate with a high level of clarity the content and reliability of BIM models at various stages, allowing downstream users to clearly understand the usability and limitations of models they are receiving. It's organized by CSI Uniformat 2010, but expands the subclasses to Level 4 to provide a detailed breakdown and more clarity to the element definitions.
"The key to being able to break out of this quasi-definition cycle is collaboration," says James Vandezande, AIA, Principal at HOK (www.hok.com), who served on BIMForum's LOD committee. "It's a stepping stone to get from document deliverables to model deliverables. This particular stepping stone is the tool that levels expectations between different stakeholders and provides an apples-to-apples comparison."
"The LOD Specification is not prescribing a particular progression or approach for creating models," says Jan Reinhardt, Principal at Adept Project Delivery (www.adeptprojectdelivery.com) and Co-chair of the LOD committee. "It only provides clear language for communicating, describing, and agreeing on a progression and quality of a model that is specific for a particular project."
Built by a Building Team
The LOD committee was set up on a multidisciplinary basis, with Reinhardt (a GC) and Bedrick (an architect) overseeing committee members organized in several domain-specific groups (e.g., structural, interior construction, exterior skin). Each group had one construction professional and one designer to represent their respective points of view during the development process.
LOD 500: The coming O+M BIM model
Early on in the process of deciding what to include in the first Level of Development Specification, the BIMForum LOD committee concluded that level 500 would have to be put on hold. AIA E202 defines LOD 500 this way: "Model elements are modeled as constructed assemblies, actual and accurate in terms of size, shape, location, quantity, and orientation. Non-geometric information may also be attached to modeled elements."
As the industry struggles with the concept of using BIM models for facilities management (FM) tasks, this definition could be construed to be an operations and maintenance level, or as a model for as-built conditions.
"For the first phase of the rollout, we decided to concentrate on levels 100-400 as a starting point," says Jan Reinhardt, Principal at Adept Project Delivery and Co-chair of the LOD committee. Reinhardt says the committee felt that many common FM-related tasks could be accomplished by using lower-level BIM models, especially when it comes to document management.
A growing number of building owners are demanding BIM models that can be used for FM purposes, but there is little consensus on how to achieve this goal. At a BIMForum meeting last winter in Tacoma, Wash., some of the concerns addressed were: Whose responsibility is it to input all model information into a system to hand off to facilities managers? What system is to be used if not specified by the owner? What would be the best system to recommend to an owner? Is highly detailed information such as structural tolerances of each beam really necessary for FM? Is it one system that catalogs all products in the entire building, or several different systems for different parts of the building?
"Level 500 is really about pure information, not graphical representations," says David Francis, BIM Division Leader at Southland Industries (www.southlandind.com) and a member of BIMForum's LOD committee. "The problem is there are software people trying to tell FM people how to run their business. If you're an FM person, you'll be using your FM or BMS software interface, but pulling the information from the BIM model and documents associated with the model. An FM guy is not going to open a Navisworks model and fly through it to find out what's wrong with his building. He just wants the information."
"One of the things we all agreed to was that level 500 needed to be the field-verification aspect of the data accompanying the model geometry," explains Ron Dellaria, Chief Compliance Officer at Astorino and a member of the LOD committee. "We asked, 'If it really is the as-built model, does it necessarily need that level of granularity for FM?' You can't equate an as-built model to an FM model. Not yet, at least. This will take more research. We felt it was best to tackle it in a later version."
"The benefit of this setup was that, as we were developing the LODs, we were passing them off to each other," says Ron Dellaria, Chief Compliance Officer at Astorino (www.astorino.com), who served on the LOD committee's interior construction group. "It was of utmost importance to get a view of what the end user, in this case the contractor, wanted to see in terms of data. We could preserve design intent and they could tell us what they needed. If this really is the new deliverable, what we're issuing needs to be acceptable by those using it next."
What quickly became apparent to the committee was that different disciplines would need to continue to work at different levels of modeling as projects progressed. For example, structural engineering would always be ahead of MEP engineering.
"No two buildings are alike and no two workflows of element development will be the same," says Will Ikerd, Principal at Ikerd Consulting (www.ikerd.com), who served on the LOD committee's structural group. "There will be similarities, just like every building has a foundation, but how that comes together will differ, as well as how the LOD in each discipline comes together at different times in the project.
Ikerd, a BD+C "40 Under 40" honoree (class of 2011), also saw a need for sequential LOD graphics for the specification document, providing a set of common images that define the model elements. "Until now, the AECO industry has been using thousands of words for LOD with no common images," he says.
The LOD Specification document was published on July 3. The document has a high level of instruction and detail for all of its elements, and software manufacturers will have enough information to give proper detail for specification for 3D elements created in-house and by third-party software vendors just from reading the LOD definitions.

The rumors of a BlackBerry coming with a front facing camera have been around for a long time. Most BlackBerry users (myself included) have been clamoring for this to happen since the first Torch came out. Truthfully these recent BlackBerry 7 devices should've come equipped with front facing cameras and video chat already, but unfortunately what's done is done.
Today, sources have reported that RIM is taking the idea of front facing cameras, and video chat integration via BBM, very seriously. Video Chat over the BlackBerry PlayBook works extremely well so we know RIM is capable of doing this efficiently. Let's hope these rumors end up being true and we can have some awesome video chat capabilities on the new generation of BlackBerry devices.
- We know what most of you will say, but we'll ask anyways. Do you want a front facing camera on the new QNX-powered BlackBerry lineup?
- Will these rumors stop you from getting a BlackBerry 7 device?

ATHENS, Greece - Greek legislators approved a controversial new property tax Tuesday that aims to boost revenue as the country struggles to obtain a critical instalment of international bailout loans that will prevent it from default.
The new tax passed 154 votes to 143 against in the 300-member parliament.
It was announced earlier this month after international debt inspectors suspended their review of Greek reforms amid talk of missed revenue targets and delayed implementation of austerity measures.
The inspectors are expected to return to Athens this week.
Greece must receive an euro8 billion ($11 billion) rescue loan before mid-October to stave off bankruptcy, a collapse that would send shock waves through financial markets in Europe and the world. But creditors have demanded more efforts to raise revenue.
The new tax will be charged through electricity bills to make it easier for the state to collect, instead of going through Greece's unwieldy and inefficient tax system. Those who refuse to pay risk having their power cut off.
But the extra charge has deeply angered Greeks, who have already been through more than a year of sharp austerity that has seen salary and pension cuts and increased taxes across the board. State electricity company unionists have threatened not to collect the tax.
Speaking before the vote, Finance Minister Evangelos Venizelos acknowledged the new tax was harsh on some, but stressed the government had no choice but to impose it as it fought to reduce its budget deficit.
"Clearly there will be categories of people who will not be able to pay this housing charge and this is a situation that will be resolved," he said. "But the most important thing is that we achieve the targets agreed to in 2011 and 2012."

The Houston Museum of Natural Science was founded in 1909 – meaning that the curators of the Houston Museum of Natural Science have been collecting and preserving natural and cultural treasures for a hundred years now. For this yearlong series, our current curators have chosen one hundred exceptional objects from the Museum's immense storehouse of specimens and artifacts—one for each year of our history. Check back here frequently to learn more about this diverse selection of behind-the-scenes curiosities—we will post the image and description of a new object every few days.
This description is from Tina, the museum's associate curator of malacology. She has chosen a selection of objects that represent the most fascinating shells and animals in the Museum's collections, that we'll be sharing here – and on hmns.org – throughout the year.
This very large species of the Volutidae Family can reach lengths in excess of 500 mm and is found along the northern coast of the Australian continent. There are also documented populations along the southern coast of New Guinea.
These shells were used by native peoples to bail the water from their dugout canoes as they traveled and are therefore commonly referred to as "Bailer Shells."
The animals that construct and live in these large shells are a source of food for local peoples and can weigh from three to five pounds without their shells. They inhabit shallow areas in the littoral zone down to ten meters in depth. The females lay eggs in clusters with each newborn hatchling fully formed and ready to begin life. These babies are between 18 to 25 mm at hatching and begin the hunt for food almost immediately. Since they are predators in their environments, Melo amphora will even prey on their own species.
M. amphora can produce "pearls" in much the same way that South Sea pearls and cultured pearls are produced. They are extremely rare and tales of fabulous sets of them have been written about. However, very few have been documented and few are in public collections such as Museums.
Learn more! Dive into the Malacology Hall, a permanent exhibition at the Houston Museum of Natural Science.

Heraclitus of Ephesus (late 6th century BCE) is probably best known for his oft-misquoted assertion, "You cannot step twice into the same river" (first mis-quoted by Plato in his dialogue of the Cratylus). What Heraclitus actually wrote was, "In the same river we both step and do not step, we are and are not" (Kaufmann, 2008 p.20). What Heraclitus meant was that the world is in a constant state of change and, while one may step from the banks into the body of a river one has always known, the waters flowing over one's feet will never be the same waters that flowed even a moment before.
Life is Flux
In making his famous statement about the river, Heraclitus was simply making clear (as 'clear' as he chose to, that is, as his writings, even in his own time, were thought to be difficult to understand and gave his contemporaries cause to call him the 'dark philosopher') his other well-known claim that "Life is Flux". Heraclitus maintained that the very nature of life is flux, is change, and that to resist this change was to resist the essence of our existence. The Logos (Greek for The Word) which infuses all things (but did not create the Cosmos, nor could will its end) operates naturally as 'change' but humans resist this natural flow and, because of this, cause themselves multiple problems owing to their lack of understanding. "To the Logos all things are beautiful and good and just, but men have supposed some things to be unjust, others to be just" (DK 22A32).
Life is Conflict
For Heraclitus, flux and opposition are necessary for life. Heraclitus criticizes the poet who said, 'would that strife might perish from among gods and men' [Homer Iliad 18.107]' for there would not be harmony without high and low notes, nor living things without female and male, which are opposites (DK22A22).
Heraclitus views strife or conflict as maintaining the world: We must recognize that war is common and strife is justice, and all things happen according to strife and necessity (DK22B80). War is the father of all and king of all, who manifested some as gods and some as men, who made some slaves and some freemen (DK22B53).
In a tacit criticism of Anaximander, Heraclitus rejects the view that cosmic justice is designed to punish one opposite for its transgressions against another. If it were not for the constant conflict of opposites, there would be no alternations of day and night, hot and cold, summer and winter, even life and death. Indeed, if some things did not die, others would not be born. Conflict does not interfere with life, but rather is a precondition of life (from Encyclopedia of Philosophy).
Heraclitus & Carl Jung
The 20th century psychologist and writer Carl Jung (July 26, 1875-June 6, 1961) echoes the ideas of Heraclitus in a number of his works but probably most clearly in his The Stages of Life where he writes, "Every one of us gladly turns away from his problems; if possible, they must not be mentioned, or, better still, their existence is denied. We wish to make our lives simple, certain, and smooth, and for that reason problems are taboo. We want to have certainties and no doubts - results and no experiments- without even seeing that certainties can arise only through doubt and results only through experiment" (Jung, 5). Like Heraclitus, Jung felt that human neuroses arose from our desire to remain child-like ("Something in us wishes to remain a child, to be unconscious or, at most, conscious only of the ego, to reject everything strange").
Heraclitus, of course, did not phrase the idea in that same way but expresses a similar idea when speaking of human understanding of the Logos, claiming that most of humanity were sleepwalking through their lives, always prefering the comfort of sleep to the conflict of being awake and aware ("Those awake have one ordered universe in common, but in sleep every man turns away to one of his own", DK 22A3). For both the ancient, and the more modern philosopher, one's inability to embrace change and accept conflict as a natural and necessary part of one's life causes the pain and disappointment one so often experiences. One causes the problems in one's life through a refusal to accept life for what it is -- Flux.

From the founding of our nation, parents have chosen the type of schooling that best fitted their children's needs, based on personalities, family lifestyles and beliefs. The schools in our country were varied, having different aspects of education. No school was exactly the same. Choices of education ranged from public, private, parochial, homeschooling, to tutoring.
Let's look at the Common Core structure to see if it allows the parent to responsibly educate according to each child's needs.
SBAC is the acronym for the testing system of Idaho Core, made from using federal and private funds to create a multi-state test. SBAC is a form of extreme testing requiring up to 8 hours (7 hours for 3rd grade). The Idaho Department of Education says Idaho needs a nationwide test to compare Idaho students with students across the nation. Is it necessary our children be the "same" throughout the state and nation? Do we want robots: held back if they want to learn more or disinterested due to lack of motivation if they get lost or discouraged? Students need individual attention to reach their full potential.
The SBAC does not provide immediate feedback needed to help the classroom teacher formulate instruction. The main purpose of the test is to give data to statisticians, rather than help teachers and parents. Our nation's schools and teachers have always taught according to the tests. The SBAC seems to be a tool for policy makers to monitor, control, and manipulate teachers, students and parents. Who is in control—the curriculum companies or the federal administration?
Since school districts cannot opt out of Common Core, what avenue do parents have to change the system? The only curriculum that parents can choose is one that the state provides. SBAC has no process to lodge a complaint or modify the test. Where is the local control in our schools? In fact one of the books on the reading list for high school is a horrible pornographic book "Bluest Eyes". The state cannot delete it from the list.
Grammar and literature of Idaho Core are eliminating many or large sections of our founding documents and classical literature to substitute informational manuals "to enter the workforce career ready". In math a student may get more credit for working the problem using an approved process but getting the wrong answer rather than a student using a non-approved process with the correct answer.
SBAC does not take into consideration stages of child development. Since young children learn mostly from memorization, forcing abstract concepts can cause discouragement and lack of motivation. Middle school ages are ready to discuss. SBAC uses a technique where no outside information can be used to write their essays. This could be potentially harmful or discriminatory to young and vulnerable students. They may be required to defend a belief with which they do not morally or politically agree. Will high school students, who like to think and write critically, have the opportunity to make their own judgments? Does it bother you that tests are formatted, not to promote, but to discourage critical thinking when there can be only closed answers to essay tests?
This top-down approach is a utilitarian "readiness for work" mentality. Contact the State Dept of Education if you believe that these inflexible standards treat everyone like a cog in a machine. Testing today determines our country tomorrow.

This is easy to make

Made it with chocolate pudding and loved it. It is rich, like all peanut butter pies are. Will make this again.
Feb 22, 2015
The directions don't go along with the ingredients or the reviews: It calls for a pastry shell but refers to "crumbs" being set aside for the topping??? Reviewer talk about "peanuts" but that is not consistent with the recipe either. I really like that this is one peanut butter pie recipe that is actually far lower in calories than all others!
Apr 5, 2014
A five-star pie for sure! I always use the chocolate pudding in this, and sometimes up the chocolate factor even more by using chocolate whipped cream on top instead of regular. It reminds me of a pie our family has enjoyed at a New England truck stop. I just adapted this recipe this week to make a layered dessert in a 13x9 pan rather than a pie, to make more servings. It turned out great! I agree with a previous reviewer -- it should chill at least 4 hours for the best flavor and consistency.
Jul 1, 2013
I just love this recipe. It is quick and easy but tastes so good, especially to a peanut butter like me. I will sometimes drizzle chocolate sauce over each slice just before serving. I also have made a banana-PB variation of this pie by substituting banana pudding mix for the vanilla or chocolate and also adding slices from 2 peeled bananas to the bottom of the baked pie shell.I always chill it at least 4 hours (if not longer) before serving in order to make sure that it is well set and slices nicely.The crumb filling/topping of this pie is so good!

My husband and I really like this pie. I do not add the peanuts though.

(The Root) — George Tillman Jr. has shown he's got range. He's helmed a romantic comedy (Soul Food), touching biopics (Men of Honor, Notorious) and high-octane action flicks (Faster). His new film, The Inevitable Defeat of Mister and Pete, which premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, is another chance for him to demonstrate he belongs in the big leagues of black directors.
The film, written by Michael Starburry — a rising screenwriter who's also been tapped to rewrite a Tupac Shakur biopic — follows two young Brooklyn, N.Y., boys left to fend for themselves one summer when their mothers go MIA. It includes an all-star cast — Jennifer Hudson, Jordin Sparks, Anthony Mackie and Jeffrey Wright — and Alicia Keys produced the film and arranged the score.
Even though Tillman is well-established, this was his first time taking a film to the big Dance, the country's premier film festival. Between the sold-out screenings, we caught up with Tillman, who also produced Barbershop, Roll Bounce and Beauty Shop, and he explained how hard it is to get certain films made and how he's heeding advice from Spike Lee.
The Root: There is so much black talent assembled for your film, The Inevitable Defeat of Mister and Pete. What was it like working with everyone involved, and how did they come on board?
George Tillman Jr.: You have a film with two kids as the leads, and they are in every scene and you only have eight hours to shoot them because they are only kids, so you really want to get the best cast you possibly can. I really wanted the film to have some sophistication to it and really strong performances, so automatically, who do you go to? The strongest African-American actor out there is Jeffrey Wright, to me, and [there's also] Anthony Mackie, who is working all the time, and Adewale [Akinnuoye-]Agbaje, who is great.
These are all three guys who would normally be competing for the same role in a mainstream movie, but I had them all in my movie. They loved the story, which is what I think it all came down to, and this is a story you don't really get to see a lot. Then it came down to the women, you know — who is going to play a mom who is a heroin addict that disappears and then comes back later?
Jennifer Hudson loved the script immediately, and for me I liked the idea that she was something fresh, something people wouldn't expect. It was a strong performance. People would not expect her to wear all the tattoos and change her appearance and not wear makeup and show her body. No one would expect that, and she did it for the love of the material and the story.
That's what it all came down to — actors want to work with someone who has their back, and they want to work on good stories.
TR: This is a great gem of a movie that's a universal story of an absentee parent and a child left alone. Films like these revolve around themes of sadness, loss. How hard is it to get these types of movies made?
GT: Every studio felt like, why would I make a movie about a black kid in the projects and an Asian kid? So how do you get that going? I needed somebody with some strength, and Alicia was very helpful.
It's tough. You have to keep pushing. From Soul Food I went to Men of Honor, and I needed Robert De Niro to get that move made, and I also needed action in it. Then I did Notorious, then an action movie [Faster] with Billy Bob Thornton and Dwayne Johnson. You keep pushing; you try to fight.
Because I always felt the human stories were the types of stories I tell the best. It's not about the opening weekend, and it's not about what actor is big enough to be in the movie. It's about the story, and that's when it takes forever. This movie took four years to make. We started in 2009, and investor after investor dropped out. In the meantime you ask yourself, "Am I doing the right things?" After attending the premiere movie screening you just feel like, wow, it does pay off.
TR: What is the Sundance payoff for you?
GT: We are getting a lot of press, especially with Jennifer and Alicia — people will see that and talk about it. A lot of people don't have that platform, and it's very important. Hollywood is only making certain types of movies. But The Inevitable Defeat of Mister and Pete, these films are in the now, and they show Hollywood what can be made. From Hustle and Flow to Beasts of the Southern Wild to Pariah — these are films that are going to continue to be made, and Sundance is a platform to get them out there.
TR: Where does George Tillman Jr. go from here? Last year while covering Sundance for The Root, I suggested that Spike Lee do Broadway, and look at how well he did with Mike Tyson's one-man show. So what's next for you?
GT: I used to be a production assistant on the commercials [Spike] did in Chicago back in the day. We reconnected after I became a director and did Soul Food. I said, "I'm doing Men of Honor next." Spike said, "You're taking too long; you need a body of work." I said, "I like to take my time and really overthink it and get it right and perfect."
Then I was at the NAACP Awards when Spike received a Lifetime Achievement [Award], and they showed all the movies he had done, and it kept going on and on. It made me realize, at [age] 43 now, just work, just keep getting it out there, just challenge yourself. If it's an indie, do it; if it's television, do it.
When I did Soul Food on TV, I was stupid and thought, "I already did the movie; why do a TV show?" Fifteen years later, everybody is doing a TV show. It's about working.
So I learned something over the process, and what's next is continuing to grow as a filmmaker, keep getting your work out there, and at some point maybe one day I can get that Lifetime Achievement Award.

Knights nab opener
The Buffalo Bisons lost to the Charlotte Knights 5-2 tonight in the first game of their four game series at Knights Stadium.
Buffalo starting pitcher Tobi Stoner matched his season high by pitching seven innings during his outing. Stoner gave up two runs in the second inning behind singles from Knights third baseman Brent Morel and center fielder Alejandro De Aza.
Stoner also tied a season high by giving up 11 hits to the Knights in his seven innings of work. Those 11 hits were the most since he also gave up 11 in a loss to the Durham Bulls back on June 9th.
Stoner's counterpart, Knights right hander Daniel Hudson picked up his league-leading tenth win of the season after he only gave up five hits and two runs in his six innings pitched. Hudson who was named the MLB.com Minor League Starting Pitcher of the Year for last season is tied for most wins in Triple-A with Durham's Jeremy Hellickson.
After Hudson was able to limit the Herd to only five hits, the Knights bullpen did not give up a hit for the remainder of the game. Those five hits would be the only ones the Bisons would get all night. The Herd's five through nine hitters went a combined 0-18 for the game.
The highlight for the Herd came in the third inning when second baseman Russ Adams hit his fifth home run of the season. Adams took the first pitch of the at-bat deep to right field to tie the game at two.
That home run from Adams would be the last run the Herd would knock in as they were held scoreless in the final six innings. Adams also hit a double in the fifth inning and would prove to be the last hit the Herd would get during the game as they were also held hitless in the final four innings.
For the night, Adams went 2-3 while shortstop Justin Turner, center fielder Jorge Padilla and designated hitter Mike Jacobs all collected one hit a piece to give the Herd their five team hits.
The loss drops the Herd to 38-37 while the win brings the Knights to 37-39 for the season.
BISONS NOTES: Former Bisons catcher Josh Thole went 0-3 in his first major league game this season for the Mets in a 5-2 New York win. The Bisons and Knights will continue their series tomorrow night when Dylan Owen (3-3, 6.39 ERA) takes on Charlotte right hander Carlos Torres (5-5, 3.08 ERA).

Taught by Jim Deeming in Music Reading seriesLength: 11:43Difficulty: 1.5 of 5
I agree about the tabs. To get around that I got a tablet of manuscript paper and drew each line of notes by hand without the tabs. While drawing (or is it writing?) the notes I also said them out loud. Jim, you are a wonderful teacher. You and Steve Eulberg are my two favorite teachers on jamplay. You are very patient and make whatever material you teach very accessible and enjoyable. Plus you remind a little of Red Green (thats a compliment, I promise!).
loved the lesson!!!!

Hammering the rests into my brain.
the tabs should not be underneath the notation in the supplemental content. I keep looking at them on accident.

About Jim Deeming
View Full Biography
Jim Deeming got his first guitar when he was only six years old. His Dad was taking fingerpicking lessons, and Jim wanted to be just like him. The Mel Bay books didn't last very long before he strapped on a thumb pick and added the Chet part to Red River Valley so it sounded better.
Most of Jim's early learning was by ear. With unlimited access to his Dad's collection of Chet Atkins albums, he spent countless hours decoding his favorite songs. They were never "right" until they sounded just like Chet. Around the age of 12, Jim heard Jerry Reed for the first time and just knew he had to be able to make that "Alabama Wild Man" sound. The styles of Chet & Jerry always have been a big influence on his playing.
More recently he has pursued arrangements by Tommy Emmanuel and Doyle Dykes, in addition to creating some of his own and writing originals.
Jim has performed in front of a variety of audiences, including concerts, competitions, weddings and the like, but playing at church has always been a mainstay. Whether playing in worship bands or guitar solos, gospel music is deep in his roots and is also the driving theme behind his debut CD release, titled "First Fruits".
Jim has been playing for about 38 years. He also has taught private lessons in the past but believes JamPlay.com is an exciting and better venue with many advantages over the traditional method of weekly 30 minute sessions.
Jim lives in Berthoud, Colorado with his wife, Linda, and their four children. Although he still has a "day job", he is actively performing and is already back in the studio working on the next CD. If you wonder how he finds time, look no further than the back seat of his truck where he keeps a "travel guitar" to take advantage of any practice or song-writing opportunities he can get.
The opening song you hear in Jim's introductory JamPlay video is called, "A Pick In My Pocket". It's an original tune, written in memory of Jim's father who told him early on he should always keep a pick in his pocket in case he ever met Chet Atkins and got the chance to play for him. That song is slated to be the title track for his next CD, which will feature several more originals plus some of his favorite covers of Chet and Jerry arrangements.

Mike H."I feel like a 12 year old kid with a new guitar!"
I am 66 years young and I still got it! I would have never known this if it had not been for Jamplay! I feel like a 12 year old kid with a new guitar! Ha! I cannot express enough how great you're website is! It is for beginners and advanced pickers! I am an advanced picker and thought I had lost it but thanks to you all, I found it again! Even though I only play by ear, I have been a member a whopping whole two weeks now and have already got Brent's country shuffle and country blues down and of course with embellishments. Thank you all for your wonderful program!
Greg J."With Jamplay I can fit in a random session when I have time and I can go at my own pace"
I'm a fifty eight year old newbie who owns a guitar which has been sitting untouched in a corner for about seven years now. Last weekend I got inspired to pick it up and finally learn how to play after watching an amazing Spanish guitarist on TV. So, here I am. I'm starting at the beginning with Steve Eulberg and I couldn't be happier (except for the sore fingers :) Some day I'm going to play like Steve! I'm self employed with a hectic schedule. With Jamplay I can fit in a random session when I have time and I can go at my own pace, rewinding and replaying the videos until I get it. This is a very enjoyable diversion from my work yet I still feel like I'm accomplishing something worthwhile. Thanks a lot, Greg
Bill"I believe this is the absolute best site for guitar students."
I am commenting here to tell you and everyone at JamPlay that I believe this is the absolute best site for guitar students. I truly enjoy learning to play the guitar on JamPlay.com. Yes, I said the words, ""enjoy learning."" It is by far the best deal for the money.

This is my favorite purchase from musicnotes. I introduced it to my friend and she loved it. Its not difficult to learn and its also not just too easy and cheap. Would have been better is they had separated the 2 voices so that it would be easier to learn each separately. Anyway they are just 2. There is little to improve on this great arrangement

Christer Fuglesang's space diary #6
We have just undocked and made a half turn around the ISS. It was amazing to see the ISS from above, flying over the Earth. My main task was to press the undock button and then to take pictures: technical images for different uses as well as good pictures for media. In total we took close to 300 photos.
It has been an incredible time on the ISS with the last spectacular spacewalk crowning the experience. What a feeling when we finally succeeded to pack the solar arrays in their boxes. Fantastic teamwork involving everyone onboard and the ground control.
The people in Houston have worked around the clock to come up with plans, which laid a good foundation for the spacewalk, but in the end it was real-time solutions that got the work done. You can guess that we are all very pleased!
However, it became a long day. After the spacewalk we spent many hours to get everything in order for today's undocking. I think I worked almost solidly for 15 hours.
We ended the day with a social gathering in the Service Module and we had a nice chat mixed with other things – such as watching the Earth and playing in weightlessness – well past our scheduled bedtime.
On another note, our sleeping rhythm is slowly changing (due to orbital dynamics) so we get to bed half an hour earlier every two days – which does not suit me.
I was also lucky to have time to do 'my' experiment: ALTEA. I was very satisfying not just managing to do a few experiments, but also to do something that I have worked on for some time. Luckily, I saw a few light flashes during the session, so now we will see if they register on the brainwaves too :-)
It has been overwhelming with new impressions and experiences the last ten days, but something very special happened yesterday. It was when I was hanging at the top of the Space Station: we were mending the solar panel with improvised tools and methods, it was night, Beamer tried to pull loose a jammed wire and I took a glance at the Earth.
I think we flew over Europe and beneath me I saw large parts of the ISS and far below I saw lights from many cities. To the left there was yet another spectacular Aurora, shimmering and flowing in light-green. I put out the lamps on my helmet (the light reflected on the Station) and just enjoyed the unbelievable experience!

Yes he does score the odd goal but sometimes I feel he is trying to be like Kanu.

Morning Comes Softly
Author: Debbie Macomber
Format: Paperback
Pages: 384
Language: English
Publisher: Avon
Release Date: April 28, 2020
A shy Louisiana librarian, Mary Warner fears she'll always be alone—so she answers a personals ad from a rancher in Montana. Never before has she done anything so reckless, casting the only life she knows aside to travel to a strange place and marry a man she's never met. But something about this man calls to her—and she knows this may be her very last chance at happiness.
Tragedy made Travis Thompson the guardian of three orphaned children—and determination leads him to do whatever it takes to keep the kids out of foster homes. When he decides to take a long shot on a personals ad, the results are surprising, and before he knows it, he has agreed to marry a mysterious Southern woman sight unseen.
It could be the mistake of a lifetime. But Mary Warner may be exactly what this broken family needs. And with a little faith, a little trust, and a lot of love, two lonely hearts might just discover the true meaning of miracles.

here's my opinion...: (in other words, don't sue if anything bad happens resulting from my birth and onward)
i understand the concern over this. but is it really gonna do anything? most fairly anonymous users (or those that have >20 post counts) don't read the sticky posts. or they may read it afterwords after they post the code. or they may not care anyway. some don't even make an effort to spell correctly.
i would suggest some kind of automatic code tagging system which works sorta-like the bad-language filter. but that's prone to errors because of the many ways people post code. ie:
ignoring the include statement, there's the main function. maybe a script could isolate something starting with a bracket until it ends the bracket. but this would ignore the fact that there are many other functions, all which would be enclosed in these tags seperately. most of the time when people post code, it has errors which are meant to be proofread. if the brackets are one of those errors, the code tags act weirdly.Code:#include <iostream> int main() { cout << blah << endl; }
solution? i would suggest putting a code button up with the other vb code buttons. maybe make it bold font, color it brightly and offensively. add a few exclaimation points, maybe a %$%@! symbol. i know there's already a code button, but it's disguised as #. that leaves its meaning wide open.
better yet, just enclose everything in code tags. it'd look sorta neat (in a weird sorta way). it wouldn't distinguish between code and non-code well, but at least the text would be indented.

2. Fill a large pot 3/4 full with water and bring to a boil. Add the pasta and cook 10-12 minutes until al dente (tender) or according to package directions. Drain pasta thoroughly.
3. In a nonstick frying pan over medium heat, add the reserved juice from the canned tomatoes. Stir in the carrots, broccoli, and green peppers. Sauté the vegetables until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and garlic, and cook for another 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, basil oregano and black pepper to the vegetable mixture. Cook over low heat for 3-5 minutes.
4. Transfer the cooked vegetables to a large bowl. Add pasta and mozzarella cheese. Toss gently to mix. Spoon the mixture into prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Cover with aluminum foil and bake until the mixture is hot and bubbly, about 30 minutes. Remove the aluminum foil after 15 minutes.
5. Divide the pasta among warmed bowls. Serve immediately.
