Connect One[tm], the Device Networking Authority[tm], released Nano WiReach, an embedded WiFi bridge that quickly and easily connects any embedded device to 802.11b/g wireless LANs with minimal programming. Measuring only 1.7×3.3 centimeters, the Nano WiReach's multiple hardware interfaces and extensive firmware functionality make it the most advanced and versatile WiFi solution for embedded devices today.
Based on Connect One's iChipSec CO2144 IP controller chip, Nano WiReach includes a full suite of Internet protocols and applications, enabling immediate and full – featured connectivity for embedded solutions without any WiFi driver development or porting.
Nano WiReach's firmware supports several modes of operation:
- LAN to WiFi Bridge — allowing transparent bridging of LAN over WiFi using direct RMII connection to existing MAC hardware. Any microcontroller with a built-in Ethernet MAC can be connected to WiFi with zero development effort
- Serial to WiFi Bridge — enabling transparent bridging of serial data over WiFi using the module's speedy 3-Mbps UART
- Full Internet Controller mode — allowing simple microcontrollers to use the Nano WiReach's rich protocol and application capabilities to perform complex Internet operations such as e-mail, FTP, SSL, embedded web server and others. Internet controller mode can be used with any hardware interface
- Embedded IP Routing — allowing multiple WiFi clients to user a single WAN connection to the Internet, using the Nano WiReach as a router
- PPP emulation — offering existing (e.g., cellular modem) designs currently using PPP to interface to the cellular modem by connecting transparently over WiFi with no changes to application or drivers
Nano WiReach includes RMII, USB, SPI and fast UART interfaces for easy integration into existing or new designs. It is available in two versions — one with an antenna connector and one with a built-in antenna.
Nano WiReach offers a highly advanced level of Internet security. It includes the latest WiFi encryption algorithms (WPA/WPA2, in both PSK and enterprise modes) and Internet SSL encryption algorithms. In addition, it serves as an inherent firewall, protecting the embedded application from attacks originating from the Internet.
"Customers are looking for easy and cost-effective ways to WiFi-enable devices with serial, LAN, or cellular modem connections," noted Ariel Shulman, Vice President Sales for Connect One. "Nano WiReach offers an immediate solution, reducing time to market and allowing customers to launch cost-effective WiFi-enabled products. Because of its tiny footprint, flexible firmware, hardware options, and hardened Internet security, we expect this module to be widely adopted by device manufactures."
Nano WiReach effectively and quickly WiFi-enables devices that use any kind of embedded real-time operating system. Designers do not need to port/write WiFi drivers or significantly reprogram their applications to connect to WiFi using the Nano WiReach. In Internet Controller mode, Nano WiReach is driven by simple text commands and offloads the WiFi drivers, WPA supplicant, Internet security, networking protocols, and all communication tasks from the host microcontroller and application. This offloading of communication tasks frees up host processing bandwidth and simplifies the wireless design process. Since Nano WiReach's firmware is remotely updateable, new security or connectivity protocols do not require application redesign, increased memory, or faster processor speeds.
Large-volume customers can benefit from functionality identical to the Nano WiReach's while realizing significant cost savings by opting for an onboard implementation of the iChipSec CO2144 and a Marvell 88W8686-based chipset. Reference designs outlining the transition, can be downloaded from Connect One's website.
Nano WiReach supports 10 simultaneous TCP/UDP sockets; two listening TCP sockets; SMTP, MIME, POP3, FTP, Telnet, and HTTP/HTTPS clients; an HTTP/HTTPS embedded Web server with a website for the host application and one for configuring the module. Nano WiReach supports 64/128-bit WEP, WPA/WPA2 (PSK and Enterprise) encryption, AES-128/256, SHA-128/192/256, 3DES; the SSL3/TLS1 protocol for a secure client socket session and a secure FTP session.
The module operates at an industrial temperature range of -40° to 85° C (-40° to 185° F) and is RoHS-compliant.
Availability and Evaluation Board
Nano WiReach will be available in November. Pricing starts at $59. The II-EVB-363MW evaluation board provides an easy environment for developing applications and testing Nano WiReach.

Personalized Children's Messenger Bag
Peachy gave this mini messenger bag to a friend for Christmas. We filled it with some fun bath and hair products. It was so easy to put together that I got it done in a matter of hours.
You can find the awesomely detailed tutorial here on the Merrimentdesign blog. I did lengthen the strap. I also added the initial to the top of the flap closure.

Regional SWAT Teams will test their core competencies in a number of challenging situations. Tactical operators must have the ability to engage in a variety of dangerous situations including serving high risk search warrants, rescuing hostages, providing armed intervention, preventing terrorist attacks (foreign and domestic), and engaging heavily armed criminals who may or may not be prepared to surrender. During the Urban Shield Exercise, Regional Law Enforcement Tactical Teams will be able to test their core competencies in the areas of domestic and international terrorist incidents, active shooters, hostage situations, multi-hazard environments, mass transportation incidents, breaching, intelligence gathering and planning, amongst others. The exercise will minimally include the following scenarios:
Host Agency: Boston Police Department
Terror attacks in Israel, Mumbai, Jakarta, Amman, among others indicate that hotels are substantial targets for terrorist attacks internationally, as well as here in the United States. This exercise will test the ability to integrate regional SWAT Teams with private security personnel during an active shooter terrorist assault in a large hotel facility. Teams will be evaluated on their ability to effectively interact with on-site security, quickly obtain critical information and properly use available security resources, while working within a large hotel environment. Situational awareness will be maintained in the Incident Command Post with the use of the Taser Axon On-Officer Camera system and the Taser Mobile Command Vehicle.
Host Agency: Winthrop Police Department
Since its discovery in 1614, the Boston Harbor has been an important port throughout America's history. The Port of Boston is the largest in Massachusetts and is a principal port on the east coast of the United States. The port handles over 14 million metric tons of cargo annually, including 201,000 container TEUs. Other major forms of cargo processed at the port include petroleum, liquefied natural gas, automobiles, cement, gypsum, and salt. There are approximately 208,000 cruise ship passengers and 81 cruise ship visits each year. In addition, the multiple ferry systems utilized throughout the Boston Harbor are part of the regional transit system that is rated Tier 1 high risk by the Transportation Security Administration. This exercise will test the ability of tactical Teams to respond to and neutralize a threat aboard a commercial passenger ferry. Teams will be evaluated on their ability to operate in a maritime environment, safely board, identify and neutralize threats, secure/re-direct the vessel in preparation for the arrival of follow-on-forces, and properly evacuate passengers.
Host Agency: Cambridge Police Department
Local Universities have Departments of Nuclear Science and Engineering, which engage in research programs involving environmental degradation of materials, development of advanced materials for fusion applications, and development of materials for advanced reactor systems. As a result, these are significant critical infrastructure concerns to the Metro-Boston Homeland Security Region (MBHSR). This scenario was designed as a result of the June 2010, Department of Homeland Security Roll Call Release, "(U//FOUO) Potential for Terrorist Acquisition of Chemical, Biological and Radiological Materials by a terrorist cell is of concern." Tactical teams will be evaluated on their ability to conduct a proper tactical deployment, secure and assess the incident scene, develop an appropriate action plan, and conduct a tactical entry to disarm, detain, or otherwise render harmless suspect(s) in an extremely hazardous environment. A critical component of this exercise will be to evaluate tactical teams knowledge, skills and abilities related to functioning within a CBRNE environment. Teams will be tested on their ability in donning and doffing appropriate PPE. Teams will evaluate new technology by utilizing the Avon-FM53 Mask, Avonair Blower, and Avon Protection Gladiator H Communication Headsets, while wearing the Blauer WZ9435 XRT Class 3 Suit.
Host Agency: Everett Police Department
The Metro-Boston Region has the longest-operating LNG import facility in the United States. The company's terminal in plays a critical role in meeting New England's energy needs. This Terminal currently meets approximately 20 percent of New England's annual natural gas demand. With connections into two interstate pipeline systems, as well as into a local distribution company's system, the Terminal serves nearly all of the gas utilities in the region and key power producers, including a neighboring 1,550-megawatt power plant able to generate enough electricity for approximately 1.5 million homes in Greater Boston. In addition, because New England lacks underground natural gas storage, the Terminal supplies LNG via truck to a network of 46 local, customer-owned LNG storage tanks around the region. As a result, this facility is considered a critical infrastructure security concern for the entire Metro-Boston Homeland Security Region (MSHSR) and is included in the Urban Shield Exercise. The scenario will test the ability to integrate regional SWAT Teams with private security personnel during an active shooter terrorist assault on the facility. The scenario will present a fusion of public and private issues when mutually responding to emergency situations. Teams will be evaluated on their ability to effectively interact with on-site security, quickly obtain critical information and properly use available security resources.
Mass Casualty EMS Response with Tactical Protection
Host Agency: Brookline Police Department
This scenario will test the ability of EMS personnel to provide mass casualty triage and expedient field treatment of multiple casualties while law enforcement tactical Teams provide protection, resulting in intra-agency and multi-discipline integration and coordination. Tactical Teams will be evaluated on their ability to provide effective force protection to responding EMS personnel in an active shooter environment. EMS personnel will be provided training prior to the scenario to better familiarize themselves with working in a "tactical" environment. This will incorporate reviewing medical skills pertinent to this type of operation including the use of tourniquets, hemorrhage control with homeostatic agents, and rapid assessment and treatment techniques. Teams will use and evaluate the Armored Mobility Inc. (AMI)-Mas-3818 Mobile Armored Shield, MSA Releasable Assault Vest (RAV), Z Medica Quick Clot, North American Response Products-Combat Application Tourniquet (CAT),Conterra-Medical Kit Bags, triage Lights-LED Identification Lights and Blackhawk-VTAC Slings during this scenario.

Publication history
The publication history of Ulysses is disputed and obscure. There have been at least 18 editions, and variations in different impressions of each edition. Joyce's handwritten manuscripts were typed by a number of amateur typists (one of whom was Robert McAlmon).[17]
According to Joyce scholar Jack Dalton, the first edition of Ulysses contained over two thousand errors but was still the most accurate edition published.[18] As each subsequent edition attempted to correct these mistakes, it incorporated more of its own, a task made more difficult by deliberate errors (See "Episode 17, Ithaca" above) devised by Joyce to challenge the reader.[16]
Notable editions include the first edition published in Paris on 2 February 1922 by Sylvia Beach at Shakespeare and Company (only 1000 copies printed) and printed by Darantiere in Dijon; the pirated Roth edition, published in New York in 1929; the Odyssey Press edition of 1932 (including some revisions generally attributed to Stuart Gilbert, and therefore sometimes considered the most accurate edition); the 1934 Random House US edition; the first British edition, of Bodley Head in 1936; the revised Bodley Head edition of 1960; the revised Modern Library edition of 1961 (reset from the Bodley Head 1960 edition); and the Gabler critical and synoptic edition of 1984.
Gabler's "corrected edition"
Hans Walter Gabler's 1984 edition was the most sustained attempt to produce a corrected text, but it received much criticism, most notably from John Kidd. Kidd's main theoretical criticism is of Gabler's choice of a patchwork of manuscripts as his copy-text (the base edition with which the editor compares each variant), but this fault stems from an assumption of the Anglo-American tradition of scholarly editing rather than the blend of French and German editorial theories that actually lay behind Gabler's reasoning.[19] The choice of a multiple copy-text is seen to be problematic in the eyes of some American editors, who generally favour the first edition of any particular work as copy-text.[19] Less subject to differing national editorial theories, however, is the claim that for hundreds of pages—about half the episodes of Ulysses—the extant manuscript is purported to be a "fair copy" which Joyce made for sale to a potential patron. (As it turned out, John Quinn, the Irish-American lawyer and collector, purchased the manuscript.) Diluting this charge somewhat is the fact that the theory of (now lost) final working drafts is Gabler's own. For the suspect episodes, the existing typescript is the last witness. Gabler attempted to reconstruct what he called "the continuous manuscript text", which had never physically existed, by adding together all of Joyce's accretions from the various sources. This allowed Gabler to produce a "synoptic text" indicating the stage at which each addition was inserted. Kidd and even some of Gabler's own advisers believe this method meant losing Joyce's final changes in about two thousand places.[19] Far from being "continuous", the manuscripts seem to be opposite. Jerome McGann describes in detail the editorial principles of Gabler in his article for the journal Criticism, issue 27, 1985. In the wake of the controversy, still other commentators charged that Gabler's changes were motivated by a desire to secure a fresh copyright and another seventy-five years of royalties beyond a looming expiration date.
In June 1988 John Kidd published "The Scandal of Ulysses" in the New York Review of Books,[19] charging that not only did Gabler's changes overturn Joyce's last revisions, but in another four hundred places Gabler failed to follow any manuscript whatever, making nonsense of his own premises. Kidd accused Gabler of unnecessarily changing Joyce's spelling, punctuation, use of accents, and all the small details he claimed to have been restoring. Instead, Gabler was actually following printed editions such as that of 1932, not the manuscripts. More sensationally, Gabler was found to have made genuine blunders, the most famous being his changing the name of the real-life Dubliner Harry Thrift to 'Shrift' and cricketer Captain Buller to 'Culler' on the basis of handwriting irregularities in the extant manuscript. (These "corrections" were undone by Gabler in 1986.) Kidd stated that many of Gabler's errors resulted from Gabler's use of facsimiles rather than original manuscripts.
In December 1988, Charles Rossman's "The New Ulysses: The Hidden Controversy" for the New York Review revealed that Gabler's own advisers felt too many changes were being made, but that the publishers were pushing for as many alterations as possible. Then Kidd produced a 174-page critique that filled an entire issue of the Papers of the Bibliographical Society of America, dated the same month. This "Inquiry into Ulysses: The Corrected Text" was the next year published in book format and on floppy disk by Kidd's James Joyce Research Center at Boston University. Gabler and others rejected Kidd's critique, and the scholarly community remains divided.
Gabler edition dropped; publishers revert to 1960/61 editions
In 1990, Gabler's American publisher Random House, after consulting a committee of scholars,[20] replaced the Gabler edition with its 1961 version, and in the United Kingdom the Bodley Head press revived its 1960 version. In both the UK and USA, Everyman's Library also republished the 1960 Ulysses. In 1992, Penguin dropped Gabler and reprinted the 1960 text. The Gabler version remained available from Vintage International. Reprints of the 1922 first edition are also now widely available, largely due to the expiration of the copyright for that edition in the United States.
While much ink has been spilt over the faults and theoretical underpinnings of the Gabler edition, the long-awaited Kidd edition has yet to be published, as of 2015. In 1992 W. W. Norton announced that a Kidd edition of Ulysses was to be published as part of a series called "The Dublin Edition of the Works of James Joyce". This book had to be withdrawn, however, when the Joyce estate objected. The estate refused to authorise any further editions of Joyce's work for the immediate future, but signed a deal with Wordsworth Editions to bring out a bargain version of the novel in January 2010, ahead of copyright expiration in 2012.[21][22]

The two suicide bombings in Ankara on Saturday were Turkey's deadliest attack in years. About 70 mourners were eventually allowed to briefly pay respects to the victims.
For some of the more than 2 million Syrian refugees in Turkey, Europe is just a bridge too far. For others, staying put is the better choice, despite the challenges.
Despite the Danish government's overt rejection of migrants, many Danes would welcome refugees. But they worry that newcomers would undermine the country's Nordic model.
Russia's military intervention in Syria has jolted NATO and provoked frustration in Washington. On Wednesday, Russia launched cruise missiles from warships in the Caspian Sea.
Russia says cruise missiles launched from the Caspian Sea Wednesday were aimed at Islamic State sites, but anti-Assad rebels say they, not jihadists, are Moscow's primary target.
In the first joint French-German address to the European Parliament since 1989, the two leaders argued that to shy from the EU project now would mean 'the end of Europe, our demise.'
Russian jets have twice entered Turkish airspace, according to NATO, which has disputed Russia's account of an accidental incursion during action in Syria.
The simultaneous withdrawal of materiel by the government and Russia-backed rebels builds on a cease-fire that both sides have largely abided by.
Under Sheikh Nasrallah, Hezbollah rode to the defense of its ally Syria. But the Shiite group that was founded to confront Israel is paying a high price in lives and prestige.
Moscow has shifted its foreign policy gaze to the defense of Syria's regime amid a lull in the conflict in eastern Ukraine. Some worry that the US could downplay Ukraine's plight in order to cooperate with Russia in Syria.
Russian officials say Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is crucial to fighting the Islamic State, while President Obama has called on the embattled leader to step aside.
The attack near Homs comes as the Russian parliament rubber-stamped the offensive in support of Bashar al-Assad.
Some 12,000 unaccompanied children from war-torn countries are expected to arrive in Sweden this year, drawn by generous refugee policies – and false rumor.
Syrians who toughed it out for years amid the violence or waited in neighboring Turkey say they no longer see a future for the country. And Europe beckons.
Previous cease-fires failed to hold in the towns, where Sunnis and Shiite residents are besieged. But a realization that both sides benefit is generating hope this one, to be overseen by the UN, will succeed.
Europe is trying to fast-track asylum processing for Syrians. But that could leave other equally persecuted refugees tarred as 'bad' or 'lesser.'
Diplomats from Europe, the US, and Russia met in Paris on Thursday to lay the groundwork for more in-depth talks at the UN General Assembly, which begins Monday.
The German chancellor is earning plaudits from Europeans for her embrace of migrants. But at home, some see her as making a rare mistake.
The town of Rellingen (population: 14,000) has accepted 110 refugees from the Middle East and Africa. Volunteers work hard to integrate them and guide them through the bureaucracy.
Netanyahu says he and Putin agreed on ways to avoid conflict between their forces in Syria. For years Israel has had a free hand to attack arms transfers to Hezbollah.
With one of the lowest birthrates in the world, Germany has much to gain economically from the influx of refugees. It plans to take in up to 1 million this year.
Survey of defectors' stories finds common themes, including opposition to brutality, corruption, and the Islamic State's preoccupation with its Sunni jihadi rivals.
Between Turkey and Hungary, asylum seekers have tapped mobile communications and a migrant economy to make decisions about where to go next. But the Croatia route is uncharted, leaving them to confront a whole new set of obstacles.
While Russia's increased presence in Syria gives the regime another leg to stand on, some in Damascus say Moscow could also temper Iran's influence.
Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and others say they've helped bankroll the humanitarian response and have taken in hundreds of thousands of Syrians.

The book of the prophet Isaiah, chapter 55, Vulgate and King James Version
1 Heu! Omnes sitientes, venite ad aquas; et, qui non habetis argentum, properate, emite et comedite, venite, emite absque argento et absque ulla commutatione vinum et lac.
2 Quare appenditis argentum non in panibus et laborem vestrum non in saturitate? Audite, audientes me, et comedite bonum, ut delectetur in crassitudine anima vestra.
3 Inclinate aurem vestram et venite ad me; audite, ut vivat anima vestra, et feriam vobiscum pactum sempiternum, misericordias David fideles.
4 Ecce testem populis dedi eum, ducem ac praeceptorem gentibus.
5 Ecce gentem, quam nesciebas, vocabis, et gentes, quae te non cognoverunt, ad te current, propter Dominum Deum tuum et Sanctum Israel, quia glorificavit te.
6 Quaerite Dominum, dum inveniri potest; invocate eum, dum prope est.
7 Derelinquat impius viam suam, et vir iniquus cogitationes suas; et revertatur ad Dominum, et miserebitur eius, et ad Deum nostrum, quoniam multus est ad ignoscendum.
8 Non enim cogitationes meae cogitationes vestrae, neque viae vestrae viae meae, dicit Dominus.
9 Quia sicut exaltantur caeli a terra, sic exaltatae sunt viae meae a viis vestris, et cogitationes meae a cogitationibus vestris.
10 Et quomodo descendit imber et nix de caelo et illuc ultra non revertitur, sed inebriat terram et infundit eam et germinare eam facit et dat semen serenti et panem comedenti,
11 sic erit verbum meum, quod egredietur de ore meo: non revertetur ad me vacuum, sed faciet, quaecumque volui, et prosperabitur in his, ad quae misi illud.
12 Quia in laetitia egrediemini et in pace deducemini; montes et colles cantabunt coram vobis laudem, et omnia ligna regionis plaudent manu.
13 Pro vepribus ascendet cupressus, et pro urtica crescet myrtus; et erit Domino in gloriam, in signum aeternum, quod non auferetur.
King James Version
1 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
2 Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
3 Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
4 Behold, I have given him for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.
5 Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and nations that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.
6 ¶ Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
8 ¶ For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.

jackpot 3X3
Jackpot 3 X 3
Slot games can be regarded as being unique compared to other classics like Roulette and Blackjack. The reason for this is because slot games can become customized through their various themes. Regardless of the different themes in slot games, there are still similarities that run through each of them. This makes playing a slot from Microgaming the same as a slot from NetEnt. 1 X 2 Gaming takes a different approach in the developing of Jackpot 3 X 3. The features, appearance, and theme of Jackpot 3 X 3 are quite different from your run-off-the-mill slot games. Read on to discover the features that make this game really stand-out from the pack.
About the Developer
1 X 2 Gaming is a developer based in Brighton, United Kingdom. This developer has been in the business of casino software development for quite a while. Although they started out in 2003, 1 X 2 Gaming didn't begin with casino games. Rather, they started out with the development of virtual sports betting software.
Some years down the line, they decided to branch out into online casino software. This decision has seen 1 X 2 Gaming bequeath the gaming world with a lot of awesome games. 1 X 2 Gaming doesn't just make slot games, they are involved in the development of multiple variations of the classics like Roulette, ploertendoder, Poker, and some other relatively less popular games.
About the Game
Jackpot 3 X 3 is a game with three reels in nine reel sets. There is a pay line for each of these reel sets. The design of the game is quite colorful and rich. The soundtrack is one that would evoke a childish feeling in the players. If you are not so comfortable with the soundtrack, you can easily mute it and enjoy the game in relative peace.
The symbols in Jackpot 3 X 3 are all geometric shapes in different colors. Bijvoorbeeld, we have a red square, a pink hexagon, a green pentagon and so on. A unique feature of Jackpot 3 X 3 is the fact that the game doesn't have any wild, scatter or bonus symbols. So, there are no bonus features.
To commence the gameplay, you have to select your chip value from the selection below the reels. The minimum amount that you can bet on a single spin is £0.01 while the maximum amount is £450.00 for a spin. When you click on the 'Place Bet' button, all nine reel sets would spin.
Of these nine reel sets, at least one is always sure to result in a win. So, you can reduce the number of reel sets to increase your chances of breaking even. Echter, when you reduce the reel sets, you are also reducing your chances of getting big wins. But if you want to play it safe, you can reduce the number of reel sets.
Jackpot 3 X 3 is a sure way to catch some fun and win some cash. With a 10000x jackpot and an RTP of 98.10%, this game is completely profitable as it can be.Nu afspelen

The holidays took on a distinctly Spanish flavor this past weekend, with Seattle Baroque's "Scarlatti in Madrid" program one of the most charming and intimate concerts of the season.
Here were expert performances of unusual repertoire, much of it high-spirited and colorful. Here also were beautiful and elegant combinations of instruments: baroque guitar, baroque harp, viola da gamba, period strings and harpsichord.
The instruments used and their provenance were listed in the program, just a part of the informative and entertaining notes on the concert.
Music director/baroque violinist Ingrid Matthews took the lead in a concerto by Domenico Scarlatti, with surprisingly robust accompaniment from Christa Patton (baroque harp), Lucas Harris (baroque guitar), Margriet Tindemans (viola da gamba) and Byron Schenkman (harpsichord).
The sound was big enough, in fact, that it almost overbalanced Matthews' nimble and mellow violin sound.
Schenkman took a virtuoso turn in a harpsichord concerto by Carlos de Seixas and later tackled three of the more than 550 harpsichord sonatas by Scarlatti. Brightly colored, vividly rhythmical, these are pieces to thrill, and Schenkman gave them their full due in performances full of stylish alacrity.
Unfortunately, the Nordstrom acoustics also made clear some disadvantages of bringing babies and toddlers to such a quiet and intimate concert.
Expecting children younger than preschool age to sit silently for two hours of baroque music is not realistic, and other nearby ticketholders paid the price for those expectations.
The evening's pièce de résistance was the seldom-heard Christmas Cantata of Alessandro Scarlatti (Domenico's father), or, to give it its full title, the "Cantata Pastorale per la Nativita di Nostro Signore Gesu Cristo."
This tuneful work is a series of recitatives and arias for soprano (the clear-voiced Melissa Fogarty) with instrumental accompaniment, incorporating melodies associated with Italian Christmas traditions.
The real scene-stealer, however, was the short performance beforehand on the Italian bagpipe by harpist Patton, a delightful surprise that brought down the house.

It seems like there's at least three new books on Bob Dylan published every week, and that in itself is certainly some kind of amazing phenomenon. One in particular that I am looking forward to, however, is Bob Dylan: A Spiritual Life by Scott Marshall. It will feature an interview with Bob Dylan's former wife (from the 1980s), Carolyn Dennis, who was also one of his backup singers for some time. To my knowledge, it's the first real interview she's given to anyone about her life with Bob. (I do remember that when Howard Sounes "exposed" Dylan's marriage to her, and the daughter they parented together, Carolyn Dennis did speak up briefly in the press to defend Bob, asserting that he had been a great father.)
Scott Marshall is a writer who actually likes Dylan (some may know his previous book Restless Pilgrim) and so I think it's nice that Ms. Dennis chose to talk to him, versus some of these other strange biographers out there, and I personally expect that the published book will handle things respectfully.
So that's it — I just wanted to give the book a little shout-out at this point. It has a release date of April 15th.

Thank you all so much for tuning in tonight. I hope you enjoyed our coverage at VAVEL USA. I'm Elijah Ackerman, signing off for the night -- and exactly at midnight! Cool! Keep following VAVEL USA for MLB coverage!
Anyway, this series continues to be fascinating. Game 2 tomorrow night starts at 7PM EST, an hour earlier than the original time -- Cleveland is supposed to be hit by rain later tomorrow night. It's Trevor Bauer against Jake Arrieta. The Cubs look to alter the balance of the Series and tie it up, but the Indians are poised to take a solid 2-0 lead.
Oh, and also, Corey Kluber was insane tonight. In 6+ innings, Kluber slid his sinker in and around the strikezone, painted the corners, and made the Cubs look silly. Kluber threw 26 called strikes tonight. 26! Andrew Miller picked it up in the seventh, and though he had to fight, he held the Cubs at bay before Perez delivered the final blow.
Roberto Perez is certainly the hero tonight. He ripped two hangers into left for two monstrous homers. Not to mention, Frankie Lindor and Jose Ramirez were phenomenal, putting up three hits apiece. Lindor started the first inning rally, and Ramirez drove him in on his RBI dribbler. After an RBI hit by pitch from Brandon Guyer, Roberto Perez was all the Indians' offense needed.
Fireworks are popping again, and the Indians, navy shirts, red gloves, and fluffy winter hats galore, celebrate on the field. The Indians lead the series 1-0.
Top 9th (2 outs): STRIKE 3 SWINGING!!! INDIANS WIN GAME 1!! Allen's fastball is waved at by Montero, and a 3 hour, 37 minute game comes to a close.
Top 9th (2 outs): 2-2 to Montero...Cleveland rises to its feet.
Top 9th (1 out): Russell goes down swinging. Progressive Field roars a little louder, and Miguel Montero comes in to pinch hit with two outs in the ninth.
Top 9th (1 out): Contreras bashes one to right, and it nearly gets over the wall. Lonnie leaps and can't grab it, and Davis picks it up and throws to the infield before Contreras can advance to third -- he made a little bat flip after the hit, and didn't fully hustle out of the box. Here's Russell.
Top 9th (no outs): Holy smokes. A knee-buckling curve bounces Baez back and lands right down the pipe. Strike three called. One down, two to go.
Top 9th (no outs): Javy Baez fouls two off in a row, and it's 0-2. Progressive Field is ecstatic right now.
The MLB Postseason is always one of unsung heroes -- we've seen a few of them so far in 2016. Roberto Perez joins the list tonight. One of the weaker hitters on the roster, Perez has been starting at catcher for his defense. Tonight, he called a wonderful shutout game (so far, at least), and has 2 homers and 4 RBIs. What a night.
Bottom 8th (2 outs): Kipnis grounds out after a Davis double (I missed that somehow, please forgive me), and on comes Allen to close it out.
So, um, this hasn't been fun for Rondon. One batter, and the game is now wide open. Indians closer Cody Allen is waiting in the bullpen. Even up 6-0, he's sure to come in for the ninth.
Bottom 8th (2 outs): WOW!!!!! Perez launches one to left for a 3-run homer!! It's his second home run tonight, and the Indians break Game 1 open. It's 6-0 Cleveland.
Before the Chapman trade, Rondon was Chicago's closer. He saved 18 games and finished the year with a 3.53 ERA.
Bottom 8th (2 outs): Chisenhall cracks a slice to left, and it's a base hit. First and second with two outs now, and here comes Hector Rondon to try and stop the bleeding.
Bottom 8th (2 outs): Guyer walks on six pitches. Chisenhall to the plate.
Bottom 8th (1 out): Ramirez slices one to center and Fowler is there. Two down.
Bottom 8th (no outs): Santana cant hold up on a dirt-submerged breaking ball from Grimm, and he strikes out. One down for Jose Ramirez.
Grimm is still in for Chicago, and Santana leads it off for the Tribe.
Top 8th (2 outs): MILLER TIME!! Andrew strikes out Schwarbs on a slider that ducks low into the zone. Kyle swings through, and the Tribe is out of their second straight jam. Bottom of the 8th coming up, don't go anywhere!! (Or grab a snack, it's okay)
Top 8th (2 outs): base hit! Zobrist smacks his third hit the other way to right, and Bryant races easily to third. Suddenly, the tying run is up to bat...and it's Kyle Schwarber!
Top 8th (1 out): Rizzo flies one to very shallow center, and Davis calls off a dramatic Lindor (who flailed a little bit after being sent off) and makes the grab. Two gone. Miller's at 37 pitches. Zobrist up.
Top 8th (1 out): Rizzo fouls a bunch of pitches off and takes ball 3 outside. It's 3-2 to the first baseman.
Top 8th (1 out): Miller walks Bryant on six pitches, the reliever's second so far. The Cubs are working against him, but need some more. Here comes Rizzo.
Top 8th (no outs): Fowler skies one to center, but Davis runs it down for the out.
Lindor is the youngest Indians player to record three hits since....well, the last time Cleveland made the World Series -- Edgar Renteria did it in 1997.
Bottom 7th (2 outs): Napoli rolls one off the bat to Rizzo in the hole, who flips a floater to Grimm for the third out. On to the 8th we go!
A sweet moment at second base, too. Lindor and Baez, childhood buddies, happily slap each other and exchange some friendly words. Those guys are adorable.
Bottom 7th (2 outs): Lindor is as sweet and chocolatey as ever tonight. He lines a double to right from the left side of the plate. Grimm stays in to face Napoli, as some two out trouble brews for Chicago.
By the way, Wilson Contreras stayed in the game as catcher after his pinch hit appearance. He's behind the plate now, and Alberto Almora Jr. is in right field instead of Coghlan. David Ross is out.
PITCHING CHANGE: Justin Grimm comes in for Wood.
Bottom 7th (1 out): Kip sprays one to the left side of the middle but Russell was shaded over. Easy play, and two away (Poetry is great, wouldn't you say?).
PITCHING CHANGE: lefty Travis Wood is in for Strop. Kipnis, a lefty hitter, is up for Cleveland.
Bottom 7th (no outs): Strop retires Davis on an infield popup to second, and Pedro is set to leave the game for Travis Wood.
Miller had to work hard that inning -- the Cubs looked ready for him in some form. Even so, he grits his way past the 7-8-9 spots to sneak Cleveland into the next ining with their 3-run lead intact.
Top 7th (2 outs): Wow! Miller gets out of the jam with a 3-2 slider to strike out Ross. It jams him inside, and Gramps can't check his swing. The Indians are six outs away from winning Game 1...
Top 7th (1 out): STRUCK HIM OUT! Miller is back on track, as his wicked slider ends up basically on Russell's knees. Nothing he could do about it, and the Indians are one out away from escaping.
Top 7th (no outs): PAY ATTENTION PEOPLE!!! Davis races for a shallow popup and catches it, but instead of throwing to second to easily double up Schwarbs (see, it works), he throws home. Instead, it's one out with the bases still jacked for Russell.
PINCH HITTER: Wilson Contreras, who has come up with some clutch hits this postseason, replaces Chris Coghlan.
Top 7th (no outs): base hit! Javy rips one to left, and the baserunners move up. Bases loaded and nobody out for the Cubbies.
Top 7th (no outs): Miller, who is rather frustrated, walks Kyle Schwarber on six pitches. Good at-bat by Schwarbs (that's a nice nickname, do people call him that yet?). Two on and no out for Baez.
PITCHING CHANGE: The Randy Johnson-esque Andrew Miller (YEAH I SAID IT) comes in for Kluber.
Top 7th (no outs): Kluber's out there to start the eighth, and he allows a lining single to left off Zobrist. Francona comes to take him out.
By the way, Jose Ramirez is the first player since since April 2015 to have three hits in a game against Jon Lester. Insane? Probably. Impressive? Yes. Important? Meh, probably not, but whatever, that's a fun fact.
Bottom 6th (2 outs): A delicious pitch from Strop -- a buckling curve that falls just above Perez's knees. Inning over.
Hmm. Ump calls time after an apparent power surge. The lights flickered off, and then back on. All is well, though. Back to the game we go!
PITCHING CHANGE: Pedro Strop comes in for Jon Lester. He has one out to get with a runner on second.
Bottom 6th (1 out): Chisenhall lifts the first pitch to left, and Zobrist makes the simple play. Maddon is on his way out to Lester. He's done after 97 pitches and 5 2/3 innings.
Bottom 6th (no outs): 2-2 to Brandon Guyer, and Lester's painting outdoor fastball is called for a strike 3. Lester's 7th K of the game. That pitch has been getting called all night, on both sides. Here's Lonnie.
BULLPEN ALERT: The Cubs' pen is beginning to stir, and there's a meeting at the mound now. RHP Pedro Strop has begun throwing. As has LHP Travis Wood.
Bottom 6th (no outs): Ramirez!! The Cleveland third baseman stays with a low pitch and smokes it the other way, and he digs into second with a stand-up double. Jose is 3-for-3 tonight.
Kluber has tossed 85 fantastic pitches tonight. If Francona pulls him after six, there is a significant chance Kluber starts Game 4 on three days rest, especially with a smaller amount of work tonight. The 2014 CY Young Winner has blanked the Cubs thus far with his frontdoor sinker, low-zone slider, and his accurate fastball. He's been painting the zone brilliantly.
Top 6th (2 outs): Rizzo is jammed for the second time tonight, and this time Perez makes the catch in fair territory. Kluber trots off to the dugout, but will he come back out for the seventh?
Top 6th (1 out): Man, the Cubs are struggling. Bryant pops one behind the plate and Perez hovers under and makes the catch. Two away.
BULLPEN ALERT: Andrew Miller is beginning to warm up in the Cleveland pen. Let's see when Francona is ready for him to take over for Kluber.
Top 6th (no outs): Fowler bounces one to second, and is thrown out easily. One quick out for Kluber, and he's now at 76 pitches.
Bottom 5th (2 outs): Carlos Santana, who cramped up his leg on the bases last time out, stands in there. After four pitches, Santana strikes out looking on an outdoor fastball. Great inning from Lester, who may finally be settled in. On to the sixth!
Bottom 5th (1 out): A sneaky outdoor changeup gets Napoli swinging. Two down in the 5th in what is so far a good inning from Lester.
By the way, the Cavs destroyed the Knicks in Quicken Loans Arena across the street, 117-88. Cleveland is 1-0 tonight!
Bottom 5th (no outs): Lindor softly hits one barely in front of the plate, and Ross does a good job to pick it up while it's fair and throw him out. One out.
Bottom 5th (no outs): Lindor laces one foul down the left field line but it's foul in the seats. This kid can really swing the bat.
Bottom 5th (no outs): Lindor, 2-for-2 today, leads off the inning. He fouls off the first pitch for strike 1.
Kluber is through 5 innings with 73 pitches, 3 hits allowed, and 9 strikeouts (just 1 in his last two innings). The Cubs are in trouble, especially if Kluber can cleanly hand it off to Andrew Miller in a later inning.
Top 5th (2 outs): David Ross stretches his bat to oblivion and loops one towards the right hole, but Napoli leans towards it and makes the easy grab. Kluber has been spectacular tonight.
Top 5th (1 out): Russell flies one to center and Davis squeezes it. Two away in the 5th.
Top 5th (no outs): Coghlan leads off and strikes out looking on Kluber's deadly frontdoor sinker/slider. He's on fire tonight, and that pitch is a big reason why.
Bottom 4th (2 outs): Lester has been increasingly accurate with the first pitch curve. After he opens Kipnis' at-bat with a looking looper for strike one, the Indians second baseman lifts one into foul ground by the left field line, and Russell runs it down to close the inning. 3-0 Cleveland after 4.
Bottom 4th (1 out): Davis, the lead-off man, lifts a low pitch to deep left, but Zobrist hangs under it by the warning track. Two down.
Bottom 4th (1 out): Roberto Perez cracks one into left on a line drive, and its gone! It sneaks over the yellow line above that giant green wall. Just like that, it's 3-0 Indians. That's Perez's 2nd homer of the playoffs.
Bottom 4th (no outs): Lester strikes out Chisenhall swinging. One away now. Lester has settled down a bit after a rough first inning.
Top 4th (2 outs): Baez eagerly swings at the first pitch and lifts it well to right. But Chisenhall is there for the easy catch.
Top 4th (2 outs): Whoa!! Schwarber rips one in the air to right, and it bounces off the base of the wall for a double. He ran okay, too!
Top 4th (1 out): On 2-1, Zobrist sharply bounces one towards the hole between 1st and 2nd, but Kipnis side-steps over and flips to Napoli for the out. Solid play. Schwarber to the plate.
Top 4th (no outs): Rizzo pops one foul, but it stays in the park and Perez snags it for the first out. Up comes Zobrist.
Top 4th (no outs): Anthony Rizzo leads off the fourth. This game has moved very slowly so far. It's already 9:30 PM EST.
Bottom 3rd (2 outs): Strike three called, and Lester leaves the mound with the home plate umpire for a word. He was frustrated with the zone last inning. To the fourth we go!
Bottom 3rd (2 outs): Lester's first pitch to Guyer pops out of Ross' glove, but Santana isn't going anywhere. He's the DH though, so he'll have plenty of time to stretch out the leg.
Meanwhile, across the street, the Cavaliers are through three quarters with an 82-64 lead over the Knicks. Santana is staying in the game, now.
Uh oh. After Ramirez's single, Santana is shaken up at second. While running to the bag, maybe afterwards, Carlos' leg appeared to cramp up. He's on the outfield grass with trainers and Francona now, and Lester is getting antsy on the mound.
Bottom 3rd (2 outs): Up the middle for a base hit! Ramirez notches his second World Series hit by lacing one into centerfield. Two on and two out for Guyer.
Bottom 3rd (2 outs): Lester walks the DH Santana on 4 pitches. Here's Jose Ramirez now.
Bottom 3rd (1 out): Caught stealing! Ross fires to second as Lindor takes the jump. Baez makes a speedy backhand tag, his signature move, and the Cubs have cleared Frankie off the bases. Cleveland thought about challenging, but after standing out on 2nd for a half a minute, Lindor reluctlantly trudges to the dugout.
Bottom 3rd (1 out): Well then. Lindor skitters of first, but Lester doesn't throw the ball over to first. Lester has never felt comfortable making that throw, but Lindor hasn't gone yet.
Bottom 3rd (no outs): Napoli, either confused or just inattentive, takes a fastball down the middle for strike three. Lester came to the plate quickly after looking at Lindor for a bit.
Bottom 3rd (no outs): Lindor slots one the other way into right for a leadoff single. He has been absurd this postseason. Let's see if he runs on Lester again.
Top 3rd (2 outs): HE GOT HIM!! Bryant strikes out swinging, and Kluber sets a World Series record with 8 strikeouts through 3 innings. Cleveland's ace is on fire tonight.
Top 3rd (1 out):
Kluber's sideways sliding fastball/sinker/unhittable pitch has been phenomenal. Two in a row for the second and third strike to Fowler. 7 strikeouts in 8 outs for Kluber.
Top 3rd (1 out): Gramps strikes! Ross sits on a low hanging slider and strokes it to left for a single.
Top 3rd (no outs): Oh my. Strikeout number 6 for Kluber is a silky slider that catches Russell looking low in the zone. Unfair. That's a pitch Russell has struggled with.
Bottom 2nd (2 outs): Kipnis gets under one and swings early. Baez chases it down by the stands in foul territory in right, and almost stumbles, too. Much better from Lester in the second.
Bottom 2nd (1 out): Rajai Davis bumps a hard roller towards the middle. Lester kicks it, and tosses to first for the second out.
Bottom 2nd (no outs): Perez pops one to shallow left. Zobrist squeezes it. One away.
Bottom 2nd (no outs): Lester, now at 26 pitches, faces Roberto Perez to lead off the inning. It's 1-2.
Top 2nd (2 outs): STRUCK HIM OUT!! Kluber with his 5th punchout of the game is a fastball down the pipe. Coghlan froze and held up his swing. Delightful inning from Kluber.
Top 2nd (2 outs): Chris Coghlan has been jumpy, yet patient. It's 3-1 to the Cubs' right fielder.
Top 2nd (1 out): Called strike three! Kluber's dancing 2-seamer carves the outer half, and Baez knows it. He walks away without a word.
Top 2nd (1 out): Behind Baez, a fan holds up a "Bartman for President" sign. Cruel, indeed. 2-2 to Javy.
Top 2nd (no outs): Struck him out! Schwarber slashes at a 93 mph tailing fastball up, but he can't keep up. One away, and here comes Javy Baez.
Top 2nd (no outs): So here's Schwarber, who is the first position player to play in 2 or less regular season games and also play in the World Series
Top 2nd (no outs): Zobrist! Chicago's cleanup smacks a ball up in the zone into right-center and it rolls to the wall. A leadoff double for Zobrist.
Bottom 1st (2 outs): Oh my! David Ross snags a foul pop behind the plate right at the protection screen, and his face slams into the padded bar underneath. He may be an old man, but the Cubs' catcher sure can take a hit.
Guyer had no chance to get out of the way anyway, that was a fastball right to his back leg. It didn't even look like Lester lost the grip on it, but he did. Here's Lonnie Chisenhall.
Bottom 1st (2 outs): Oh no oh no oh no. Lester hits Guyer on an 0-2 pitch. I have no idea how that happened, but it's 2-0 Indians now. Guyer doesn't make the biggest attempt to get out of the way, but it bopped him above the right knee anyway. Unphased, Guyer trots to first with an RBI.
Bottom 1st (2 outs): Brandon Guyer, a right-handed hitter, watches a looping Lester curve fall in for strike 1. Then he fouls one off. 0-2.
Bottom 1st (2 outs): RAMIREZ!!! A dribbler comes off the tip of Jose's bat, and it rolls into no-man's land in between Lester and 3B Kris Bryant. It's 1-0 Cleveland on an RBI infield single.
Bottom 1st (2 outs): Lester misses inside on 3-1, and Santana walks. Suddenly, the Indians have a big inning cookin'. Can Jose Ramirez deliver here with two outs?
Santana hit 34 homers and drove in 87 RBIs this season. And Lester is behind him 3-0. Out comes David Ross to give him a pep-talk.
Bottom 1st (2 outs): What was a smooth inning for Lester has turned stressful. Napoli walks on 5 pitches, and it's 1st and second for Carlos Santana.
Bottom 1st (2 outs): Stolen base!! Lindor takes off and the ball slips away from Ross' grip. Frankie had it all the way, anyway. It's 3-0 to Mike Napoli now.
Bottom 1st (2 outs): Lindor bounces a single up the middle on a 1-1 pitch. Now, is it time for him to steal? Lindor had 19 stolen bases in 2016, but he has plenty of speed.
Bottom 1st (1 out): Kipnis shoots one down the 1st base line, but Rizzo is right there to make a l0w catch. A lineout, and two outs for Lester (on 5 pitches too!)
Bottom 1st (no outs): Lester goes right after Davis and strikes him out on a high and away fastball. Plenty of cheers, too. It seems the Cubs have a lot of fans here tonight, and why not?
Bottom 1st (no outs): Lester takes the hill, and his first pitch is a fastball for a called strike to Rajai Davis, who is 0-for-12 in the playoffs so far.
Top 1st (2 outs): Rizzo is jammed and pops one up to Ramirez who was shifted over to shortstop. A nice little inning there from Kluber.
Top 1st (1 out): Strikeout called again!! A fastball down and away picks the corner. Bryant was a third down the line before hearing the call, apparently. It is very very loud in Progressive Field.
Top 1st (no outs): Strike three called! Kluber's slippery, sliding 2-seamer hooks onto the inside of the strike zone. One away. Kris Bryant is up now.
The Indians are in their alternate navy tops and white pants, and the Cubs are in their classic road grays with their blue cap. It's 2-2 to Dexter Fowler.
Top 1st (no outs): We are underway! The first pitch to Fowler is a ball low and away. Fowler, a switch-hitter, is hitting lefty.
In case you were wondering, the Cubs and Indians have waited for a combined 176 years to win another World Series. ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY SIX YEARS.
One more round of commercials (guhh), and first pitch is coming soon.
FOX runs a beautiful introduction of some, well, older people proclaiming their love and happiness for their teams, the Indians and Cubs. Really cool, and a reminder that baseball is a kid's game for literally everybody.
Cool camera work by FOX as the anthem thunderously closes. Fireworks are popping in the sky, as is all of Cleveland. First pitch coming up!!
Cleveland's ballpark, Progressive Field, feels like a wide and padded up Fenway Park. Not in a bad way, perhaps. But at times it feels enormous. A long and high left field wall is topped with a concrete standing area and high-climbing bleachers, and some trees and advertisements -- ah yes, nature -- are sprinkled just above the centerfield wall. Though Progressive Field, which was built in 1997, may seem unordinary and spacious, it's sure to get loud. In fact, it already is. The Indians PA is announcing the team's starters as they line up along the field for the National Anthem. It's almost time for Game 1!!
Speaking of men on base, Cleveland's gameplan tonight is sure to include activity on the basepaths. They stole 134 bases this season, more than any A.L. team, and are facing a pitcher who struggles with base stealers. Even so, Cleveland will tread carefully due to Javy Baez's magic tags and tosses, and Chicago's overall solid defense. It's an advantage the Cubs have held all season, and even in a big ballpark, they won't be shy to showcase their prowess.
Anyway, now that Maddon's club has a more expansive budget -- and a phenomenal head executive in Theo Epstein -- his lineups pack incredible punch. The Cubs seem to have men on base ALL THE TIME, and they drive them in efficiently and effectively.
Joe Maddon is only in the second year of his managerial stint in Chicago. He led the Cubs to the NLCS last year where they were swept by the Mets, but Maddon has been revered by baseball pundits since he brought the Tampa Bay Rays -- the RAYS!!!! -- to the World Series in 2008. Though they lost to the Phillies in 5 games, Maddon brought Tampa to 30 postseason games in his 9 seasons. I'll say it again, Joe did this WITH THE TAMPA BAY RAYS!!
Francona was Cubs starter Jon Lester's manager in Boston, where he won two World Series in 2004 and 2007. Francona has loads of experience, and has proven himself as a motivating, savvy leader in the Majors. Under Francona since 2013, the Indians have a .545 winning percentage.
Corey Kluber is on the mound for Cleveland tonight. As the ace of his staff, he needs a strong outing tonight. He has an ERA under 1.00 in the postseason so far, and Terry Francona won't want Game 1 to turn to a bullpen battle.
At age 29, Kipnis has secured himself in the upper echelon of MLB second basemen. He isn't quite as dynamic as Lindor -- Kipnis is a pure hitter. Though only 5-for-30 in the playoffs, Kipnis' bat can wake up in a trance, and Cleveland needs it against Chicago. Even against a tricky lefty, Kipnis is hitting 2nd tonight, and will see plenty of pitches to hit. Kipnis is a career .272 hitter with a .768 OPS, and is coming off his best power year yet -- 23 HRs, 82 RBIs, and .469 SLG.
Lindor and Kipnis are vital to Cleveland's offense. Lindor, especially, has been clutch and energtic throughout the postseason -- he can do it all. Francisco is as melty-sweet and crunchy as Lindor Chocolates. He's hitting .323 in the postseason with 2 homers and 4 RBIs, and he ended his first full MLB season with a splendid 5.7 WAR. And, at 22-years-old, he was voted to the A.L. All Star team.
The Indians, just like the Cubs, boast a dynamic and talented middle infield. Francisco Lindor and Jason Kipnis have been enormous factors all season long, and they've caused plenty of havoc in the playoffs. Lindor and Javy Baez have known each other since their Puerto Rican childhoods, and are about to share the same field for the first time since High School.
Apparently, Kyle Schwarber looks just fine in batting practice.
The Indians have officially released their lineup:
1) CF Rajai Davis
2) 2B Jason Kipnis
3) SS Franciso Lindor
4) 1B Mike Napoli
5) DH Carlos Santana
6) 3B Jose Ramirez
7) LF Bryan Guyer
8) RF Lonnie Chisenhall
9) C Roberto Perez
Pitcher: Corey Kluber
By the way, Jon Lester has three career World Series starts, all with the Red Sox. His record? 3-0 with a 0.43 ERA and 12 hits in 21 innings. How's that for a Game 1 Starter?
Amazingly, Maddon has strayed away from a lineup with Jason Heyward, who has hit .073 in the playoffs. Coghlan starts in right instead.
The Cubs lineup has been released, and Schwarber's hitting 5th! Here it is:
1) CF Dexter Fowler
2) 3B Kris Bryant
3) 1B Anthony Rizzo
4) LF Ben Zobrist
5) DH Kyle Schwarber
6) 2B Javier Baez
7) RF Chris Coghlan
8) SS Addison Russell
9) C David Ross
Pitcher: Jon Lester
Downtown Cleveland is going to be chaotic tonight. Just across the street from Progressive Field, the Cleveland Cavaliers tip off the NBA season with their ring ceremony. For the first time in 50 years, Cleveland will raise a banner. Can they win a second championship in one year?
Schwarber, a catcher and outfielder, injured his knee on a nasty collision with Dexter Fowler in left-centerfield in Arizona. Schwarber's greatest gift, however, is his bat. He's as big and powerful as they come, and was a critical part of the Cubs' 2015 playoff success. Schwarber's iconic moment came in Game 4 against the St Louis Cardinals -- Chicago's clincher to reach the NLCS. Up 5-4 in the 7th, Schwarber smoked a solo homer off the top of the scoreboard in Wrigley Field's right corner. A few months later, the Cubs brought the ball back and encased it on top of its landing spot, somehow not bashed in by Schwarber's sheer power. Cleveland better watch out, even if Kyle isn't fully healthy.
Remember when I said we'd preview Kyle Schwarber? Well, here we go. Schwarber has officially been added to the Cubs' World Series roster. In the third game of 2016, Schwarber shredded his knee, tearing his ACL and LCL. But, he has made a tremendous comeback and is expected to DH tonight. Just incredible.
So, here we are. As October begins to tumble away into the sleet and mist of November, baseball's final symphony is ready to play. The Cubs and Indians are poised to give us an ageless, mind-bending, and mouth-watering World Series. These teams are loaded with the league's tastiest characters, a rejuvenating cast to give the baseball world a brand new spectacle. And we at VAVEL USA just can't wait. As we tiptoe closer to game time, we'll preview more players and possibilities like Francisco Lindor, Kyle Schwarber, Jason Kipnis, and the two World Series managers, Joe Maddon and Terry Francona.
Cleveland's bullpen may only be matched by Chicago. The Cubs' 7th-8th-9th trio is one of bullying, aggressive, and fiery pitchers. Pedro Strop, Hector Rondon, and Aroldis Chapman make up Chicago's back-end, and they are spectacular. While Chapman, a Cuban missile with a 103 MPH arm-cannon, has run into some save-situation trouble, he has been able to gather himself at critical moments. The Cubs acquired him from the Yankees at the Trade Deadline this summer, the exact way the Indians picked up Miller.
The playoffs' biggest lesson is bound to be re-taught in the World Series -- bullpens are crucial. Andrew Miller, Cleveland's left-and-loop handed monster longman, won the ALCS MVP -- he threw 7 2/3 innings with 14 strikeouts, and just 3 hits allowed. He was untouchable. He was perfect. Miller is the closest lanky lefty to Randy Johnson we have seen, and he isn't even Cleveland's closer -- that's Cody Allen's job. Allen has thrown 7 2/3 innings in the playoffs, with a superb line of 5 saves, 5 hits, 3 walks, and 12 strikeouts. So, don't expect to score on the Indians after the 6th inning.
The Cubs can pitch, too. Jon Lester will start Game 1, and he's followed up by Kyle Hendricks, Jake Arrieta, and John Lackey. Hendricks and Lester are both significant NL Cy Young candidates. Hendricks led the league with a 2.13 ERA, and Lester has been a splendid and consistent ace all year. Oh, and Arrieta won the Cy Young Award last year. This Cubs rotation is good, really good.
Enough about the Indians. Not that they're boring or unlikeable -- they're neither -- but it's time to talk about the Cubs. After signing Jason Heyward and Ben Zobrist last summer, Chicago entered 2016 with loads of potential. While still young, they are more experienced after reaching the NLCS in 2015. They're better, too. 2B Javier Baez and SS Addison Russell have proven so -- they were dynamic, explosive, and crucial in the first two rounds. The Cubs' infield is absurd, and not yet at the peak of their potential. 1B Anthony Rizzo and 3B Kris Bryant are Chicago's biggest power threats, usually hitting 2nd and 3rd in the lineup. Russell and Baez, meanwhile, are meant to shred open the opposing starter's wear-and-tear, eager to rip games open and wreak havoc on the bases. Baez and Russell have been x-factors all postseason, as is the case in the World Series.
Cleveland's biggest losses, however, are those of their top two starting pitchers, Carlos Carrasco and Danny Salazar. Carrasco fractured a bone in his hand after being struck by a comebacker in late September, ending his season. Salazar, however, has suddenly become a wild card for the World Series. He's healthy -- somewhat -- and has crept onto Cleveland's roster. Though he may feature as a starter or reliever, Salazar appears anchored to a 65-70 pitch limit. However, the Indians are fired up to have one of the AL's top young pitchers back for the World Series. In 17 first-half starts, Salazar went 10-3 with a 2.75 ERA and 1.18 WHIP, though he did plummet after the All-Star Break.
The Indians most notable offensive scrapes are OF Michael Brantley and C Yan Gomes. Gomes had been terrible before he hit the DL 74 games into the year, batting a blind .167, and Roberto Perez and Chris Jimenez have combined for solid replacements. Brantley's shoulder injury has kept him out all year, besides 11 early games. His absence has paved the way for rookie Tyler Naquin, a fresh Cleveland spark plug, and veteran Rajai Davis. Though Brantley's sparkling hitting is missed, Cleveland has been far from anemic on offense. They're savvy, gritty, and always seem to have runners on base -- just like the Cubs.
The Cubs and Indians have both arrived here after wonderful seasons. Chicago has been the most dangerous team in the NL and finished with the best record in the Majors, 103-58. Meanwhile, Cleveland won the AL Central with ease but stumbled into the postseason with multiple injuries.
In case you were wondering, my name is Elijah Ackerman, and I'm here to give you all the updates -- complete with witty comments -- you need for Game 1.
Hi, everyone! Welcome to VAVEL USA's live coverage of the 2016 World Series. Tonight is Game 1 between the Chicago Cubs and the Cleveland Indians. An unpredicted matchup, these two Central Division teams are ready for a historic World Series.

To create a wine that perfectly represents the spirit of the terroir from which it originates is no easy task. To understand the soul of a varietal and work it from its optimum ripeness and exposing it to the lees in order to highlight the flavor of the climate, is our biggest challenge.
To achieve this, Casa Rojo created a team consisting of varied backgrounds and specialties. This team generates a rich diversity of perspectives and experiences to draw on in the creation and development of each of our wines.
Each part of the whole must be considered and analyzed down to the smallest detail. Each project in the selected regions demands our full engagement, trust and impeccable organization working towards the same goal. We also like to acknowledge and recognize the professionals out in the fields. From the farmers and growers to the enologists of the wineries we work with, all contributions are essential to the process of developing high quality wines. Through this coordinated effort we are able to make balanced wines, from the vineyard to your glass.
The evolution of consumer markets requires an evolution of ideas, in order to add value to our wines so they sell themselves and at the same time reflect the history behind the grapes. This means creating wines coordinating the balance of all perspectives of viticulture, enology, sommeliers and design.
Together the Casa Rojo team incorporates a wide range of diverse and complementary ideas, backgrounds and tastes to bring you the highest quality wine Spain has to offer.
We come together to celebrate our core value and the one thing we all have in common: our love of wine. We express our love in every bottle of wine we produce.

Episode 64 | Matt Bronleewe • Songwriter | Producer | Author
In episode 64, Brenton and Bryant unpack the creative journey of Matt Bronleewe. Matt is a long-time Nashville based producer and songwriter. Originally from a small town in Kansas, Matt always had a strong passion for music. He grew up playing guitar and listening to 80's hair bands which caused him to be "that guitar player kid" in his small town high school. While in college, he met Dan Haseltine, Charlie Lowell and Stephen Mason. Together the four of them formed the group Jars of Clay, named after a verse in the Bible. The group began performing around their college and later recorded their debut demo album Frail. Following the demo's release, the group's fame spread, and they were approached by Christian record label Essential Records to record a full-length studio album.
Matt was married in August 1994 and lived for one year in Sterling, IL where he continued to work on his studies. In the summer of 1995, Matt was invited to reenter the world of music when another Greenville College student, Sarah Jahn invited him to play guitar for an independent CD she was recording, and later asked him to play guitar for her full-time. Matt moved to Nashville, and played with Jahn as well as pursuing other avenues of song writing and record production. Bronleewe had become known as a previous member of Jars of Clay as the group had rightly credited him as a co-songwriter for several songs from their album, which had gone platinum. With this, Bronleewe worked with several musical artists, most notably producing the debut album by Plumb, for which Jars of Clay member Haseltine co-wrote the song "Concrete" with Bronleewe and Arbuckle (the lead singer of Plumb). Following this successful release, Bronleewe collaborated with Christian singer-songwriter Chris Tomlin, with whom he was nominated for a 2003 GMA Dove Award. Bronleewe continues to collaborate with various musicians in the American Christian music scene such as Michael W. Smith, Stephen Curtis Chapman, Kari Jobe, and Leeland. Outside of the Christian music genre, Bronleewe has worked with artists such as Australian Natalie Imbruglia, actress Hayden Panettiere, former Tonic frontman Emerson Hart and American Idol finalist Kimberley Locke.
After building a name for himself in the music industry, Bronleewe turned to the literary world. In August 2007, Bronleewe released his first book, Illuminated. The thriller conspiracy novel has been likened to stories such as The Da Vinci Code and National Treasure.
n 2009, Bronleewe joined Dan Haseltine and Jeremy Bose to form a new band, The Hawk In Paris. The band released a seven song EP, His+Hers, in 2011 filled with melancholy love songs reminiscent of 80's synth-pop groups like Depeche Mode and Pet Shop Boys. More recently, Matt has created a new venture under the name "Unsecret Music" involving some of the best songwriters and artists Nashville has to offer. ⏪

Franklinia Tree
Franklinia alatamaha
This tree is over ten years old in zone 5. Slow growing, beautiful flowers & fall color.
Franklinia Tree (Franklinia alatamaha)
Franklinia Tree
Beautiful! Is it a distinct variety? What are its distinguishing characteristics? I've never heard of it. I would love to know where you got it.
I ordered from a mail order catalog one January while looking out the window at a snow covered yard. Franklinia Alatamaha, no variety given, is how it was marketed. My $29.95 bought a ten inch stick with roots. Although I expected it to become a small tree it has only reached six feet in ten years. The Ben Franklin tree had eight blossoms last fall followed by beautiful red foliage. It has not been bothered by insects or disease nor required winter protection in Illinois. I couldn't be happier. If, however, you are looking for a small tree, you might prefer a parrotica persica.
Thanks for the info. I've tried Franklinia a couple of times and I killed it both times. I am going to try it again and I will also get a Parrotia also.
How odd. In your first post, you said that you had never heard of the Franklinia tree. In your last post you said that you had tried it several times and killed it.
I had never heard of 'Ben's Best'.
It appears that 'Ben's Best' is a name that ktdid2840 created for this particular individual.
The question should have been asked by the PlantFiles admins: is this name registered or published anywhere, and is there a purpose or defining characteristic that gives this plant merit as its own named selection? If not, then one could as easily call it Charley�.
Franklinia alatamaha is easily propagated from cuttings. It is likely that the mailorder company used this propagation method, or got this plant from a nursery that roots cuttings. That means that there are likely many identical plants growing elsewhere, and ascribing a unique name to this one would usually be considered invalid.
If this were a seed-grown plant with unique characteristics that merited definition, or a mutation from a standard plant that was then propagated, then by all means name it, patent or copyright it, and collect the royalties in due course as the horticultural world stampedes to be first in line to have one.
Somewhere out there is an effort to catalog all the Franklinia alatamaha plants in cultivation. It may be under the auspices of Bartram's Garden in Philadelphia - my memory of where I read about that fails me at the moment. ktdid2840 ought to make sure they know about this specimen.
Thanks, VV. Now I can stop lusting for a rare variety of Franklin tree. :-p
"Ben's Best" just appeared when I added my picture to the information page on Franklinia Altamata. I noted in my picture info that the tree was marketed "no variety given". Sorry for the confusion.
Kt, is it possible you clicked on the wrong entry when you uploaded your pic? Go to Plantfiles and search 'franklinia' in the genus field. You will get two entries for Franklinia. The species and the variety 'Ben's Best'. Evidently it's valid because Rarefind carries it.
You can also click on the link in the first post which takes you to the "Ben's Best' cultivar and then click on the Genus word 'Franklinia' and you can see both entries.
If you click on your image in the PlantFile page to enlarge it and then click on the 'Report An Error' button on the top, you can request to have admin move your image over to the correct entry.
Sure is a pretty tree and the blooms are especially lovely!
So upset....I have a beautiful Franklinia. It lost 2 huge branches in Superstorm Sandy, and now two more in the Blizzard. It has little left. Is there any way to encourage new growth/branches on existing trunk or branches? I refuse to give up on it!
Sorry to hear about your Franklinia plight. I have a twelve year old Franklin Tree that has suffered through two ice storms (2003 and 2009), but has soldiered on. Keep hope.
This is not a good location for you to have posted this question. This web page is for comments about specific (previously posted) pictures - in this case the one from ktdid2840 in Illinois. The only people that will ever see this will be people looking for a picture of Franklinia, not necessarily one of the millions of users of Daves Garden that might offer you specific help for your predicament.
I recommend that you post your question at one of the other forums full of helpful people here at DG:

|Dinosaur-human hybrid
Concept art of various hybrids
Hybrid of:
Human + Triceratops/Tyrannosaurus rex/Velociraptor
Movie canon appearances
"Jurassic Park IV" (cut)
The Human-Dinosaur hybrids were unused hybrids that appeared in an early version of the script for "Jurassic Park IV" later known as Jurassic World.
Triceratops hybrid
The Triceratops hybrid is a large fully upright humanoid with green skin. It has three toes with a space between the big toe and its other two toes. Because of its humanoid body, the horns are located on top of its head with its frill is positioned horizontally rather than vertically with Triceratops. Physically, it seems that this hybrid seems to have had a rough life because one of its horns is broken and a visible scar across its left arm.

Velociraptor hybrid
The Velociraptor hybrid had multiple designs made of it, more so than any of the other hybrids to date. Carlos Haunte, who is known have designed several concepts of the raptor hybrids, called one of the concepts "raptorman" in a now-deleted Instagram post,[1] meaning that "raptormen" could be the name of these hybrids.

Behind the scenes
in need of expansion
The earliest known concept art of the dinosaur-human hybrids was created by Carlos Huante from 2002 approx.[2] According to Jack De La Mare, creator of the fan site Jurassic Outpost, he contacted Huante about why the hybrids were scrapped to which Huante told him that as soon as the heads of Amblin Entertainment saw the concepts, they shut down the project "almost instantly".[3]
The earliest public knowledge of these hybrids is October 2003, in an interview with Jack Horner on the Minnesota Public Radio's Midmorning show. A caller asked Horner about the The "Dinosauroid", a conjectured evolutionary descendant of Troodon that had a humanoid appearance. Horner replied telling the caller to "keep thinking about that for a couple years" before further telling him to go see Jurassic Park IV.[4]
