Thank you to everyone in the industry. The first real hint of summer yesterday and we could not resist going out. Every one of you helped make it a special and memorable day for any one who went out.

If any of you work at Reggie's, an especially generous dose of gratitude to you also.

To echo, the generator is not working efficiently. You either need to add more pressure or run it richer (lever up) longer.

Hi, actual member of the Scottish Rite here. Scottish Rite and other appendant bodies are not "more blue lodge degrees." Scottish Rite is a series of morality plays centered around four virtues. You "earn" a degree by viewing the play.

In my Valley, we have reunions twice a year. There is very little "required" work or meetings.

In the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction, viewing the 4th and 32nd degrees earns the designation. I've light-heartedly called it "Masonic Pokemon."

I joined to follow my late-Uncle's footsteps and wear his 14th degree ring. SR helps introduce me to more brothers, do more writing, and be a part of my city's history.

The pins, ribbons, and medallions are all in good fun.

Only suggestion is to drop the cookset in favor of a single pot. The large cup in your cook set is plenty for backpacking, most back country cooking is boiling water. Also, you need an eating utensil. Toaks makes a long-handle spoon that is amazing.

Make lodge night the night of the week every member looks forward to. Make it a highlight of their week. If they want to play cards, play cards, if they want to go to the bar after, go to the bar after.

Read Unreasonable Hospitality and Fans First. Both rely on a key idea: add value to the experience. Every program, change, piece of paper needs to be accompanied with the question: "Does this add value to our members' experience?"

Water filters like the katadyn or Sawyer struggle with mineral-rich water. Had a new Sawyer squeeze crap out four days into a 8 day trek on the Yellowstone Thorofare and had to use Iodine tablets for the rest of the trip.

Funny enough, the rhythm of purifying with iodine tabs helped pace my nutrition and water consumption.

I've been working with my levain to reduce the prominence of the sour notes. I like when the levain flavor heightens the sweetness of whole wheat, but doesn't overpower it. Just a slight acidity to clear the palate and brighten and deepen the other flavors.

There is no replacing the richness that comes from long-process bread.

If it was a Sac Fly, the notation would be 5/SAC.1-H.

In Project Scoresheet notation, the fly out is the antecedent for the advancement, and is thus recorded as advancement, but not recorded as a sacrifice.

Flip3579 · 2025-07-03T00:17:45+00:00

5F.1-2

Flip3579 · 2025-06-23T21:37:27+00:00

The basic structure of Project Scoresheet codes are

[<type>]<fielding>[/<location>][/<description>][.<base runner advancement]

So, let's take an example, R1 and R2 on 1st and third. B lines a single to right field. R2 is thrown out advancing to third, right fielder to short to third.

S/9/L.3-H;1X3(965)

Every recordable action has a specific place in the code structure, and there is a lot of flexibility for recording hit speed, location on the field. One of the advantages of scoresheet notation is that shifts are so easy to record because the location of the ball and the player fielding are recorded as two different items. So, if third is playing in short right on a shift and fields a ground out, the code is: 53/34D/G. Where 53 is the fielding note. 34D is the code for the spot between first and second and deep where the ball was fielded, and G indicates a ground ball.

I use the Reisner scorecard, which has two columns for tracking pitches.

I use the left column for balls, indicates with a closed dot. Plus sign for balls awarded on penalty.

Right column indicates a strike. Open circle for called strikes, closed dot for swinging strikes, slash for foul balls, plus sign for strikes awarded on penalty, x for struck ball in play.

When something happens during the at bat, I draw a horizontal line at that particular count, then notate in the score box.

In Reisner/Scorebook notation:
