there's a 1-in-6 chance either of the die will land on the side with a single dot The odds are not high; the probability is quite low But the great thing about odds is they can be beaten and the beauty in probability is that it's not reality Pendleton baseball proved it The Bulldogs needed everything to go their way to win the Region 1-AAA championship. Pendleton needed to win its next six region games and Walhalla had to lose its next five region games The Razorbacks indeed lost all five of their remaining region games and the Bulldogs pulled out a 9-7 victory against Crescent on April 25 for their sixth consecutive region win to find themselves in a position that seemed almost implausible The Bulldogs open the SCHSL Class AAA state playoffs on May 6 as the No I had a talk with the kids right here," Pendleton coach Kevin Durham said "I told them we must look in the mirror and keep grinding I told them that the only thing I've ever known to do is keep working Winning the region was a roadblock the Bulldogs tried to drive through since 2018 the last time Pendleton topped its conference "This is a pretty surreal feeling," said senior outfielder and right-handed pitcher Ayden Clay then battled for third place sophomore year We were always in the fight for it; we just never came out on top to finally come out on top this year is just a great feeling." and their shot at topping the region would disappear But the Bulldogs don't cave into pressure — they surpass it "The key is staying calm and having fun," said senior pitcher Gage Thomason The Bulldogs want to make even more history The baseball program has never won a state championship and this senior class is committed to being the one to get the program its first SCHSL banner "Winning a state championship would be an unreal feeling," said senior infielder and pitcher Nash Cahaly "The seniors have been through a lot in our four years here It would mean so much to us if we were the first ones to pull off a state title." MORE: Why Eastside baseball's Peter Mershon is considered the best player in South Carolina Durham said there's no "magic formula" to being successful in the playoffs. It's all about staying honed in on the fundamentals. If the Bulldogs can do that, Durham likes their chances. "It's really about locking in on the basic things," Durham said. "We preach to them that you really have to beat the game, you can't beat the opponent. We have to throw strikes, make the routine plays on defense, and have timely hitting. I tell them all the time that if we do those three things better than the other team, then we'll win the game 99.9% of the time."

Lee Monument, Richmond VA (Figure) (2021)—a black-and-white film that chronicles the titular monument in the aftermath of the racial justice protests of 2020—have been “revised” into new bodies of work since the MoMA exhibition reflecting Pendleton’s interest in “rethinking and reworking similar materials” For example, in his current exhibition at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington DC Pendleton is showing Resurrection City Revisited (Who Owns Geometry Anyway?) (2024-25) The video features images of the encampment on the National Mall ahead of Martin Luther King Jr’s 1968 Poor People’s Campaign interspersed with geometric forms Pendleton says this piece “thinks about how video can function like painting as a bold method and medium” The MoMA exhibition was organised by Stuart Comer the museum’s chief curator of media and performance who began working with Pendleton during his residency in 2012-15 Pendleton was doing both on-site research into MoMA’s history and collection—particularly researching the architecture and design of historical exhibitions and exhibitions of geometric abstraction and African art—and traveling throughout the US to engage with communities as the Black Lives Matter movement was flourishing Pendleton began to “weave his own interest and deep knowledge of the avant-garde with the political conversations that were emerging quite powerfully at the time” Although the installation was not a “direct manifestation” of the Black Dada Manifesto the project created a foundational set of proposals that prompted Pendleton to “think about a counter museum at the heart of the museum” and amalgamate components of Modern art with political dialogue “What is important about this project in particular is that it is not defined by a single medium or discourse,” Comer says “What MoMA has made quite clear is that we are interested in moving beyond the departmental silos for which the museum was known and think about how we can revisit earlier moments in Modernism that were more hybrid Adam has reclaimed that early chapter of Modernism in a very dynamic way.” the acquisition “speaks to the history of MoMA and its collection but helps us rethink how to situate those histories in the present and look towards the future and how to think about voices that were not always a part of that conversation” it is envisioned that the installation’s individual components may be shown although there

Stockyards bringing its signature American-made goods—and deep rodeo roots—to the heart of Mule Alley In a move that feels less like expansion and more like destiny Pendleton Woolen Mills is planting its roots in Texas soil — specifically in the red-dirt heart of the Fort Worth Stockyards founded in 1863 and known for its heirloom-quality wool blankets and rugged Western-inspired apparel will open its first Texas storefront on May 7 And they’re not just setting up shop anywhere Pendleton is taking over a prime spot in the newly restored horse and mule barns in Mule Alley just steps from where longhorns still clomp down Exchange Avenue twice a day this isn’t a dalliance with cowboy cosplay the Stockyards are an ideal location for us and share in our connection to rodeo culture and American heritage,” said Bob Christnacht executive vice president of sales and marketing “The deep history and spirit of the district makes it a perfect match for Pendleton.” That connection to rodeo culture isn’t just talk Pendleton’s home base in Oregon is known for the Pendleton Round-Up one of the oldest and most storied rodeos in the country Their century-long partnership with the event — stitched into the very fabric of their design language — has made their bold geometric blankets as iconic as a tooled leather saddle or a well-worn pair of Luccheses with their own rodeo arena in the Cowboy Coliseum dating back to 1908 It’s a place where the old West isn’t recreated — it simply never left shoppers will find Pendleton's full lifestyle spread: apparel their signature wool blankets — still woven at one of the last two remaining woolen mills in America And in a nod to Texas pride and Stockyards history the store will carry two exclusive designs: a saddle blanket emblazoned with the Lone Star flag and a twin-sized wool blanket honoring the legendary steer runs that have made the district famous This latest expansion adds a Texas twang to Pendleton’s long-running Western ballad And if

for individual assistance after the April 4-6 floods The announcement offers a potential glimmer of hope for Falmouth residents who have been waiting for relief "I believe that Pendleton County will be in our third request for counties Initial information that we received wouldn't have qualified We knew that there was more damage that's been there," Beshear said in response to a question WCPO asked during a virtual press conference The governor explained the commonwealth’s standard practice is to first submit counties with the worst most easily documented destruction in their requests to FEMA WATCH: We ask Beshear about the status of relief for Pendleton County:  "We've done it several times and we're going to continue to follow this track until FEMA or others tell us that a different approach would be better," Beshear said the federal government approved individual assistance for 13 Kentucky counties "We have not been successful to get our county on that list," Falmouth Mayor Sabrina Hazen said Wednesday Hazen spent Thursday taking FEMA damage assessors to evaluate damaged homes The goal is to document the extent of the damage throughout the community to meet federal requirements "We're trying to find our most impacted homes to get reassessed to see if we can meet the threshold or whatever requirement that they're wanting us to meet to get us on that list," Hazen said a Falmouth resident whose garage was flooded destroying inventory he had stored for upcoming flea markets but said he’s frustrated that it’s yet another step in an arduous bureaucratic process Carroll must document each of the hundreds of items damaged in the flood for even a chance at receiving relief money that’s not guaranteed Watch my story detailing what Brad is going through from last

the town's development bringing rich cultural traditions and a strong sense of community The walk also introduces the Keese Barn Legacy Project which plans to restore the barn's façade to mirror the original structure and share its history with the community The Keese Barn restoration project plans to rebuild the historic development as a vibrant community space for cultural celebrations The

redevelopment will honor Benjamin Horace Keese and the Old Keese Barn For more information or to make a donation, visit blackhistorypendleton.org. According to the South Carolina Historical Properties archives the original Keese Barn was a two-story frame structure that showcased architectural elements from the 1900s It featured a brick chimney and wooden pillars that supported the roof of the shed The barn also included shingle doors and decorative tracery windows Hassan said the Keese Barn began as a general store selling canned goods Benjamin Horace Keese built the barn between 1900 and 1910 Hassan said locals nicknamed it "The Hundreds" as it regularly attracted large crowds People flocked to the store for its goods and vibrant social atmosphere The area became a cultural and social hub for the African-American community fostering connections and supporting local businesses The Keese Barn closed in 1975 after it fell into disrepair following Benjamin's death "It left a significant void in the community," Hassan said the Keese barn evolved into a safe place where Black residents could come together for social events and cultural gatherings during segregation Many residents have fond memories of gatherings and celebrations at the historic Keese Barn Hassan fondly recalled how his grandmother took him to the Keese Barn when he was a child The barn was renowned for hosting two of the most significant events in the Pendleton African American Community He mentioned that these events brought families together to celebrate and reconnect "The food there was always 'off the chain,' " Hassan said "Reviving the Keese Barn will preserve a piece of history and provide a space for future generations to create new memories," Hassan said Travis Rose covers Anderson County for the Independent Mail Grizzly Bear 399 is being immortalized in a new Pendleton blanket commissioned exclusively for the Jackson Pendleton store The shop is taking pre-orders for the $400 blanket is being immortalized in a new Pendleton blanket Store owner Kimber Becker said she and her family came up with the idea about a year before Grizzly 399 was hit and killed by a motorist in late October “It was our vision to make this blanket because she was so special,” Becker said “Grizzly 399 was known for her resilience and beauty We think this blanket captures her spirit and this wilderness area that was her home.” The Grizzly 399 design is prominently displayed in the window of the Pendleton store and the shop is taking pre-orders for the $400 wool blanket which Becker says will probably sell out its first run “When we were working with the Pendleton designers and because of the jacquard looms we can only use four colors,” said Becker whose parents started the Pendleton store on the Town Square more than 40 years ago We have 399 with her four cubs and the Tetons in the background which is where she and her cubs were often seen.” pointed to a painting on the wall of the famous bruin family by Mark Kelso that was bought by the Becker family and helped inspire the blanket This is not the first blanket created exclusively for the Jackson store by Pendleton Woolen Mills The shop carries dozens of blankets only available here a series of animals of Grand Teton and Yellowstone national parks and a special blanket with Teton County cattle brands Becker said the Jackson store is the only independent Pendleton shop for which the company will make exclusive blanket designs Sometimes Pendleton retires a blanket design Grizzly 399’s death in the Snake River Canyon south of Jackson made worldwide headlines as she probably was the most beloved and famous bear in the world The Queen of the Tetons lived to be 28 years old and reared at least 18 cubs often along park roadsides in plain view of hundreds of spectators Becker said 399’s legacy lives on in works of art such as the Pendleton blanket Contact Penny Nakamura via valley@jhnewsandguide.com Another tribute to the “Queen” is being offered by Wyoming Whiskey which is auctioning bottle 399 of its “Queen of the Tetons” bourbon Only 720 bottles were made and sold out in December The auction features the bottle with an image of Grizzly 399 captured by renowned nature photographer Thomas D Mangelsen; an additional sample bottle of Queen of the Tetons; and a framed and signed print by Mangelsen of “Spring’s Surprise,” the image featured on the bottle or sign up for a new account and purchase a subscription to read or post comments no promotional deals were found matching that code Your browser is out of date and potentially vulnerable to security risks.We recommend switching to one of the following browsers: Get up-to-the-minute news sent straight to your device Account processing issue -

I didn’t always consider the blanket as the most essential part and I tried to get away with using an old bedsheet or a beach towel on the ground instead But after having water seep through the material one too many times I know that the blanket can make or break a picnic what better time to invest in a quality picnic blanket that you’ll use all spring and summer long — and for years to come I asked Apartment Therapy staffers for their recs and found some of the most highly rated options on the market My own outdoor blanket — a $10 option from Amazon — is included too which makes the hard ground feel way more comfortable and acts as a strong barrier for any dampness It also rolls up compactly and can be secured with Velcro straps “It’s not so big that it’ll catch in the wind like a sail when you try to lay it down, but, at 72x54 inches, it’s big enough that you and your friend can lounge comfortably on it together, along with your picnic,” Sofia says in her review But that means you can also use it as a normal blanket on chilly nights spent outdoors according to former deputy commerce editor Alicia Kort which is specially designed to block out the elements “​​The ground in the park had seen better days — instead of being grassy, it was essentially dirt,” she says in her review “The blanket protected us from the worst of it I wiped the puffer off with a damp paper towel once I got home It features premium ripstop fabric with waterproof coating and won’t blow away in the win with the included corner stakes and it kept us dry in the downpour at the celebrity golf tournament in Tahoe So it’s like having an umbrella at all times,” says one review on REI’s website “I carry it with me every day for its multiple uses.” and the blanket folds down small so that it isn’t a pain to store in my tiny apartment the PE waterproof membrane is anti-sand and blocks out moisture but putting some of my belongings on the corners keeps it from flying away and like the majority of the others on this list It folds into a little bag with a long shoulder strap — and it has a little zippered pocket It repels everything from water to dirt to pet hair and you can toss it into the washing machine and dryer The brand even claims your dog will love it It’ll stay in tip-top shape when you keep it in the matching bag “My family and I use it constantly,” one shopper says all while boasting an entirely recycled shell It rolls up into a sack so you can easily tote it to the park or beach And the gorgeous Cascade Fade print is the cherry on top; it’s inspired by the High Cascades that run through Washington and Oregon It has a near-perfect rating from a whopping 4,000 shoppers Read the commentsFiled in:Shopping The home you love starts here The home you love starts here Apartment TherapyThe wordmark for the Apartment Therapy brand.More From Us By subscribing, you acknowledge and agree to our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.

Taylor fills the huge hole at tight end left by the departure of Tyler Conklin The Jets and quarterback Justin Fields will likely utilize the tight end position as much as any team in the league so the addition of Taylor could be a huge move in the right direction for New York Taylor is regarded as the third best tight end in the NFL Draft behind first round picks Colston Loveland and Tyler Warren If the Jets couldn't land one of the top two guys it's not a bad move to land the third tight end The content on this site is for entertainment and educational purposes only Betting and gambling content is intended for individuals 21+ and is based on individual commentators' opinions and not that of Sports Illustrated or its affiliates All picks and predictions are suggestions only and not a guarantee of success or profit If you or someone you know has a gambling problem crisis counseling and referral services can be accessed by calling 1-800-GAMBLER The Smithsonian’s Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden has announced “Adam Pendleton: Love Queen,” a landmark exhibition by Adam Pendleton The artist will present new and recent paintings as well as a single-channel video work in the museum’s second-floor inner-ring galleries April 4 Pendleton’s first solo exhibition in Washington highlights his unique contribution to contemporary American painting while making use of the architecture of the museum and history of the National Mall “Introducing Adam Pendleton’s recent work in our 50th year is intentional,” said Melissa Chiu “His exhibition reflects the Hirshhorn’s mission as a 21st-century art museum that amplifies the voices of artists responding to history and place in real time Queen’ invites our almost 1 million annual visitors to think about the complexities of abstraction within the American experience and its potential to forge associations among our shared past “I am delighted to exhibit my work on the occasion of the Hirshhorn’s 50th anniversary,” Pendleton said “It presents a meaningful opportunity to engage position on the National Mall and legacy of showing significant abstract and conceptual work.” Queen” will feature Pendleton’s “Black Dada,” “Days,” “WE ARE NOT” and new “Composition” and “Movement” paintings “Painting is as much an act of performance as it is an act of translation and transformation,” the artist has stated The artist will also debut “Resurrection City Revisited (Who Owns Geometry Anyway?),” a new video work that will be projected floor-to-ceiling the multi-day encampment erected on the National Mall in the summer of 1968 considered to be the culmination of Martin Luther King Jr.’s Poor People’s Campaign The film’s score by the multi-instrumentalist composer Hahn Rowe integrates a reading by the late poet and cultural critic Amiri Baraka with an orchestration of brass Queen” will offer a powerful counterpoint to the collection surveys being presented in adjacent galleries with support from former curatorial assistant Alice Phan “It is an honor to invite Adam Pendleton to respond to the Hirshhorn’s singular architecture and location,” Hankins said Queen’ speaks to the vision of our anniversary—a period of simultaneous reflection and forward thinking a space in which Pendleton has been operating for almost two decades.” Queen” will be accompanied by an exhibition catalog with scholarly essays Virginia)is a central figure among a cross-generational group of painters redefining the medium as it relates to process and abstraction he was honored with the Rosenthal Family Foundation Award for Painting from the American Academy of Arts and Letters His work has been shown at major museums around the world Recent solo and group exhibitions include “Adam Pendleton: Blackness and Light,” mumok—Museum moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig Wien Austria (2023–2024);

I grew up in Richmond, Virginia, so DC figured prominently in my imagination as a kind of cultural metropolis. The Hirshhorn would’ve been one of the first museums I went to growing up where I had my first encounters with modern contemporary art Kwame Onwuachi: That’s really dope, man. I know how cool it is to have something in your own city, like Tatiana in New York is for me My connection to DC stems from my grandfather who taught anthropology and African American studies at Howard University in the ’60s and ’70s so I spent my summers there throughout my childhood When I got a chance to open up my first restaurant Then I got an opportunity to run my own restaurant and get a salary in DC Now Dōgon is the sixth restaurant I’ve opened here Artists don’t have anything like that—something that distills our biography and tells the audience who we are It’s always so much more complicated for us Sometimes you have this idea that everybody who’s successful has had this very easy path but I feel a kinship with you because I think we’ve had trials and tribulations and moments of regression and rejection and used them as opportunities to move things forward even in the daily process of working in the studio Sometimes the work rejects me and I need to try to find my way back into it You’re not cooking for perfect seasoning; you’re cooking to share something with someone That’s what resonates with me—figuring out how to use the dish to express something meaningful “What am I trying to say?” It’s also sustenance—people have to eat to survive But if you are creating an experience like a restaurant then you need to think on that next level of what you’re trying to convey The message at Dōgon is: There would not be DC without West African science who was a [freeman] that created the borders of DC by mapping the stars and constellations The only reason he knew how to do that is because he was a descendant of the Dogon tribe—a tribe of scientists and astronomers Pendleton: I’m not so much trying to tell a story because, for me, that suggests there’s some sort of traditional arc, like a beginning, middle, and end. But I am trying to create an experience I’m investigating the power and potential of abstraction and insisting on the right to exist within its possibilities I’m kind of rejecting narrative and trying to move past it to be in this other space where things are more fluid Sometimes I refer to it as a kind of “complex real,” where many things are happening at once it’s not the future—it’s about how we can experience the confluence of those temporal realities at any given moment Onwuachi: When you think about art, it’s something that adds meaning; it colors existence. It doesn’t sustain the body, but it can sustain the spirit. Food might start with sustenance, but it has the potential to transcend into an art form when you start layering in intention, creativity, and storytelling It’s like building a house—you need a strong foundation before you can decorate or design it but it’s not the same as the necessity to eat Even if it’s not physically required it contributes to the experience of being alive even if it’s like drumming in class with a pencil or taking a crayon and writing “Fuck my mom” on the wall I don’t encourage any child to [say that to] their mom but having that free will to express yourself is also a part of life I make these drawings every now and again; they’re called “Hey Mama Hey” and they’re a tribute to my mother But I often think that these pursuits—we’re pursuing dreams here right?—are always a tribute to someone who allowed me to live a life [where I could] follow this path But I do feel like there’s a certain kind of responsibility to a life that is led in pursuit of a dream Onwuachi: I don’t think it’s quantifiable by success because I’ve met a lot of successful people that aren’t really happy the late nights felt different because I was chasing a dream Pendleton: To forget the tribute and the possibility is an unhappy life Onwuachi: It’s easy to forget. It’s easy to get comfortable in whatever space you’re in … How do you feel about your Hirshhorn show? Onwuachi: I can’t wait to experience it, man.
