Cubs Youngsters Meet Veteran MLB RHP Kip Wells at Diablo Park
Ryan Dalton smacked a two-out two-run double to cap a three-run 6th, and veteran RHP Kip Wells and three relievers combined to throw a two-hitter with 14 strikeouts, as the Angels topped the Cubs 4-1 in Cactus League Extended Spring Training action this afternoon at Diablo Park Field #7 in Tempe, AZ.
The Angels signed Wells last Friday, and this was his first game outing of any kind in 2013. He allowed one unearned run, a single and a walk, with four strikeouts, in his two innings of work
Two more prospects who recently arrived from the Cubs Dominican Academy made their U. S. debut today, as 17-year old switch-hitting SS Frandy de la Rosa (signed as a 16-year old last July 2nd for a $700K bonus) and 20-year old switch-hitting 2B Bryant Flete (296/419/419 for DSL Cubs #2 in 2012) saw action in the game. Flete will probably be the starting 2B for the AZL Cubs in 2013, and de la Rosa will likely spend Extended Spring Training battling Francisco Sanchez for the AZL Cubs starting SS job.
Here is the abridged box score from today's game (Cubs players only):
1a. Shawon Dunston Jr, CF: 1-3 (1B, F-9, 6-3, R, SB)
1b. Bryant Flete, 2B: 0-1 (4-3)
2a. Danny Lockhart, 2B: 0-2 (K, F-8)
2b. Rashad Crawford, CF: 0-2 (4-3, K)
3. Reggie Golden, DH #1: 0-2 (K, L-9, BB, SB)
4. Jacob Rogers, 1B: 0-2 (E-6, K, BB)
5. Yasiel Balaguert, RF-DH: 1-3 (F-9, 1B, 6-4 FC)
6. Xavier Batista, DH-RF: 0-3 (K, K, K)
7a. Carlos Penalver, SS: 0-1 (BB, P-6)
7b. Frandy de la Rosa, SS: 0-1 (K)
8a. Trevor Gretzky, LF: 0-2 (K, F-8)
8b. Jeffrey Baez, LF: 0-0 (BB)
9a. Lance Rymel, C: 0-2 (K, 5-3)
9b. Justin Marra, C: 0-1 (K)
10. Luis Acosta, 3B: 0-3 (K, K, K)
1. Dillon Maples: 1.2 IP, 3 H, 1 R (1 ER), 1 BB, 3 K, 37 pitches (22 strikes), 2/0 GO/FO
2. Erick Leal: 2.1 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K, 35 pitches (27 strikes), 3/2 GO/FO
3. Corbin Hoffner: 1.2 IP, 3 H, 3 R (3 ER), 2 BB, 0 K, 39 pitches (23 strikes), 1/4 GO/FO
4. Mike Hamann: 1.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K, 31 pitches (22 strikes), 0/2 GO/FO
5. Matt Iannazzo: 1.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K, 12 pitches (10 strikes)
3B Luis Acosta - E-5 (throwing error allowed batter to reach base safely)
WEATHER: Sunny & breezy with temperatures in the 70's

Sappelt is somehow still the best option for CF v LHP on this team. His career splits v LHP compared to DeJ clearly play that out. However, especially now with Barney back, this ice-cold version of Sappelt had better never bat leadoff again.
Recent comments
I love winning! It's, like, better than losing?
You lollygag the ball around the infield. You lollygag your way down to first. You lollygag in and out of the dugout. You know what that makes you? Larry!
Its too bad Warren didnt get to pitch. He would have saved us.
Whoa -- that Contreras play in the 8th looked too much like a "Schwarber" -- nearly crashed into the wall going full speed, with Heyward doing the same.
New rule: if you are a catcher playing LF, and find yourself sprinting after a fly ball in the gap -- stop, let the CF go after it and get ready to play it off the wall.
Cubs have no spark and no life. Pretty boring to watch these days.
I thought trips to Miami were supposed to be fun. This one sucked.
The bottom half of the bullpen now turns close games into blowout losses. Not good.
Once Fowler went to the DL, the team went into the tank. Wonder if he'll get any love this offseason? Probably not.
6IP, 2ER. The last one scored because of another botched Zobrist DP turn.
And now, a bad throw by KB. Sloppy.
What is it with Hammel always starting well and sucking after a couple months?
Ahhh...sad. Lke a few of you here, I saw him play during the '69-'71 seasons. He was the "hot Zobrist" for the club in August/September of '69 while everyone else was fizzling out...
I predict: "They will play hard and if they give the same effort every day, they'll win a lot of games."
OK, boys -- find a way to win today.
There's some BA is missing too, here's all signing bonus BA doesn't have some:
-6 Hockin $241,000 (slot price), 7 Cruz $75,000 (saved $110,00), 8 Ridlings $120,000 (saved $53,800), 9 Robinson $30,000 (saved $132,300), so far the Cubs have saved an extra $297,100
per Muscat...
Zobrist (2B), Hayward (CF), Bryant (3B), Rizzo, Contreras (LF), Montero, Russell, Coghlan (RF), Hammel
Also -- despite losing 6 of their last 10, the Cubs picked up a game on both STL and PIT during that period. Weird, given that they swept PIT and were swept by STL.
Also, I'd like to know if there are numbers to back up my suspicion that there are a lot more fast starts than late June romps. This seems like a time where everybody not named Willson Contreras is looking a little tired and/or banged up a bit.
For once, the Cubs got off to a fast start. Seems like I've been waiting for that for 50 years.Everybody is really gunning for this team, too. It's their playoffs.

Virginia Arts Festival celebrates "Pocahontas"
Norfork - It's America's biggest birthday since the 1976 bicentennial celebration of the Declaration of Independence:
A day is now a very long time indeed in politics; would that it were otherwise. It certainly is in the Ring, as we move forward a generation to Die Walküre.
If composers had to be categorised as either conservatives or radicals, Christoph Willibald Gluck would undoubtedly be in the revolutionary camp, lauded for banishing display, artifice and incoherence from opera and restoring simplicity and dramatic naturalness in his 'reform' operas.
Das Rheingold is, of course, the reddest in tooth and claw of all Wagner's dramas - which is saying something.
The Princeton Festival presents one opera annually, amidst other events. Its offerings usually alternate annually between 20th century and earlier operas. This year the Festival presented Benjamin Britten's Peter Grimes, now a classic work, in a very effective and moving production.
If you like your Ariadne on Naxos productions as playful as a box of puppies, then Opera Theatre of Saint Louis is the address for you.
Opera Theatre of Saint Louis took forty years before attempting Verdi's Macbeth but judging by the excellence of the current production, it was well worth the wait.
On June 16, 2016, Los Angeles Opera with Beth Morrison Projects presented the world premiere of Pulitzer Prize-winning composer David Lang's Anatomy Theater at the Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theater (REDCAT).
In its compact forty-year history, the ambitious Opera Theatre of Saint Louis has just triumphantly presented its twenty-fifth world premiere with Shalimar the Clown.
The sharp angles and oddly tilting perspectives of Charles Edwards' set for David Alden's production of Jenůfa at ENO suggest a community resting precariously on the security and certainty of its customs, soon to slide from this precipice into social and moral anarchy.
Last week an audience of 50 assembled in the kitchen of a luxurious West Village townhouse for a performance of Marriage of Figaro.
In a recent article in BBC Music Magazine tenor James Gilchrist reflected on the reason why early-nineteenth-century England produced no corpus of art song to match the German lieder of Schumann, Schubert and others, despite the great flowering of English Romantic poetry during this period.
With the New York Premiere of Florencia en el Amazonas, the New York City Opera Steps Out of the Shadows of the Past
Opportunities to see Idomeneo are not so frequent as they might be, certainly not so frequent as they should be.
Not merely Don Carlo, but the five-act Don Carlo in the 1886 Modena version! The welcomed esotericism of San Francisco Opera's extraordinary spring season.
The early summer San Francisco Opera season has the feel of a classy festival. There is an introduction of Spanish director Calixto Bieito to American audiences, a five-act Don Carlo and two awaited, inevitable role debuts, Karita Mattila as Kostelnička and Malin Bystrom as Janacek's Jenůfa.
Now that the curtain has long fallen on the third and last performance of the Ring cycle at the Washington National Opera (WNO), it is safe to say that the long-anticipated production has been an unqualified success for the company, director Francesca Zambello, and conductor Philippe Auguin.
Most of the attention during this revival of Daniele Abbado's 2013 production of Nabucco has been directed at Plácido Domingo's reprise of the title role, with the critical reception somewhat mixed.
Four years ago, almost to the day (13th to 12th), I saw Melly Still's production of The Cunning Little Vixen during its first Glyndebourne run. I found myself surprised how much more warmly I responded to it this time.
This recital celebrated both the work of the Park Lane Group, which has been supporting the careers of outstanding young artists for 60 years, and the 90th birthday of Joseph Horovitz, who was born in Vienna in 1926 and emigrated to England aged 12.
Headed by General Director Luana DeVol, a world-renowned dramatic soprano, Opera Las Vegas is a relatively new company that presents opera with first-rate casts at the University of Las Vegas's Judy Bayley Theater. In 2014 they presented Rossini's The Barber of Seville and in 2015, Puccini's Madama Butterfly. This year they offered a blazing rendition of Georges Bizet's Carmen.
Norfork - It's America's biggest birthday since the 1976 bicentennial celebration of the Declaration of Independence:
the 400th anniversary of the founding of Jamestown, the first permanent English-speaking settlement in the New World. And to commemorate the landing of those 104 adventurous Englishman the Virginia Arts Festival and the Virginia Opera co-commissioned "Pocahontas," a tribute to the young Native American woman who charmed the new arrivals. The favorite daughter of Algonquian chief Powhatan, she learned English, converted to Christianity, married Virginia colonist John Rolfe and gave birth to a son, whom both Thomas Jefferson and Robert E. Lee claimed as an ancestor. Renamed Rebecca by a clergyman who saw her as the mother of two nations, Pocahontas traveled to England, where she was presented at court and, as she prepared to return to Jamestown, died suddenly at 24 in 1817. She is buried at Gravesend, and it is there that the one-act chamber opera by composer Linda Tutas Haugen and librettist Joan Vail Thorne begins.
From there it moves back to Jamestown and the early hostile confrontation between natives and settlers. Pocahontas appears now as an adolescent, a tomboy attractive to both parties and simultaneously as a mature woman respected on both side of the Atlantic. This interplay between the young and mature character is particularly effective in underscoring her role in two cultures.
Beyond the outer facts of her brief life, little is known about the "real" Pocahontas. Contemporary accounts were — in the style of the day — elaborately embellished, and later generations — including the 1995 Disney film — have added undocumented ornamentation. And although Haugen and Thorne obviously did an immense amount of study — including on-site observation of artifacts and landscape, they have made no effort to fill in blanks. Their endeavor focuses not on linear narration, but rather on an evocation of the unusual woman that Pocahontas was. While committed to cultural accuracy, the creative team has sought not to write history, but to explore the mystery of this woman who did much to establish peace between two peoples.
And the mesmerizing quality of Haugen's score stresses that basic questions about Pocahontas remain open. "I ask myself who I am and I do not know the answer," she sings. "There will never be an answer; I will always be ... a question."
Further major players in the story as told by Thorne are Pocahontas' father and mother, husband Rolfe and John Smith, head honcho of the Jamestown adventure.
Acclaimed a success by the enthusiastic audience that packed Norfork's Roper Performing Arts Center for the world premiere on May 19, "Pocahontas" is an opera like no other. It is a pastiche that combines song and extensive spoken dialogue in a superbly crafted score. Haugen, noted for her use of ethnic voices and instruments in previous works, went to the tribes still resident in East for motifs that she has woven into the work, the instrumentation of which calls for specially crafted Native American flutes, drums and shakers. Haugen further includes a hymn tune from Thomas Commuck's 1845 "Indian Melodies" and — to suggest the flavor of the Elizabethan age — bits of Byrd, Gabrielli and Orlando.
With a voice decidedly her own the composer has combined all this in a 90-minute seamless score for nine instrumentalists seated on stage behind the small, near-empty space upon which the story plays. "Pocahontas" is engaging and accessible without being pabulum for the people. The music is beautiful and often powerful; Rolfe's wooing of the heroine and her death scene elevate this enigmatic woman into the company of Violetta and Mimi. (Although they add local color, the three Native American songs delivered by a vocal/drum duo from the Haliwa-Soponi and Appomattox Tribes stand outside the score and contribute little to the story.)
Virginia Opera assembled a superb cast of young singers for this production, slated also for performance in historic Williamsburg. Sopranos Laura Choi Stuart and Dawn Zahralban were superbly matched as the mature and youthful heroine, and bass Branch Fields sang Rolfe with resonant richness. Lyric tenor Brandon Wood was a handsome and sometimes roughish Smith, and Andrew Fernando a major presence as Powhatan.
Pam Berlin directed the staging with a firm hand; Marlene Pauley conducted with authority. Choreographer Todd Rosenlieb wisely opted for stylized dance, eschewing the pow-wow that others might have found essential. Costumes by designer Michael Schweikardt were true to the period; on her first appearance Pocahontas was dressed as in the painting by Simon de Passe, her sole surviving visual image.
In making the commission Robert Cross, founding director of the Virginia Arts Festival, specified that "Pocahontas" was to be not "a kiddie opera," but rather a "family-friendly work to which parents would enjoy taking their children." And the reaction of the opening-night audience, among which were many kids, suggested that he got what he ordered.
Pocahontas is famous beyond her native region, and this opera deserves stagings elsewhere. Because of its modest dimensions, however, it will not have the appeal of Mark Adamo's "Little Women" or Jake Heggie's "End of the Affair," two recent and widely performed chamber operas. "Pocahontas," however, is nicely suited for academic opera programs and for studio production by major companies. Haugen's music is wonderfully singable and ideal for voices still in the development stage.
Festival performances of the opera profited, of course, from the "you-are-there"proximity of the historical triangle Jamestown, Williamsburg and Yorktown, magnificently developed sites with an abundance of authentic documentation intelligently and tastefully displayed. Patriotism has become a discomforting concept of late; a visit to this region from which America grew is reassuring.
Footnote: Aside from its obvious roots in Jamestown "Pocahontas" is something of a Minnesota Opera. Composer Haugen holds degrees from St. Olaf and the University, where she studied with Dominic Argento. Librettist Vail has worked closely with St. Paul-based composer Stephen Paulus, and conductor Pauley, also a St. Olaf alumna, is a clarinetist in the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra, which she conducts regularly.

Angry response to Solomons dolphin slaughter
Relevant offers
The continuing slaughter of dolphins in the Solomon Islands is set to hit the troubled nation's struggling tourism industry.
About 1000 dolphins have been killed in the last 10 days by the people of Fanalei on Malaita in an ongoing dispute with a New York environmental group, Earth Island Institute (EII), which in 2010 paid them not to engage in the traditional kill.
Video has emerged suggesting that EII believed the deal was unlikely to last any way.
Administrators of the Visit Solomon Islands Facebook page said they have been removing postings but people from around the world are hitting them with fresh anger.
"You can delete as many messages as you like, but you can't delete the tragedy that took place on Solomon Islands last week," a South African posted.
"The shame that a handfull of your people bring to your island nation can not be deleted either."
Radio Australia quoted a dive operator in the Solomons urging the government to stop the killing.
"They should be looking to do something within the next few days," dive operator Danny Kennedy said.
"Fly in somebody from the Ministry of Conservation, maybe the general manager of the tourism authority to go out there and talk to them and try to quell the slaughter."
EII had promised to pay Fanalei S$2.4 million (NZ$400,000) over two years not to kill dolphins, but villagers claim they had only received S$700,000.
As dolphin teeth are used in bride payments and the flesh is eaten, the villagers resumed the killing which is expected to last until March.
AnimalPlanetTV posted on Youtube a video of the negotiations between EII and Fanalei, revealing it was a tense process led by EII's Ric O'Barry and his son Lincoln O'Barry.
One angry villager told the Americans: "One of the elders from this village made an objection about your coming. (He) said you don't try to listen to anybody." Another said he always recorded the numbers of dolphins around the village.
"I don't want to hunt because I saw lots of dolphins and they floated around in the sea. They were not fit for killing, eating."
He said they should stop killing dolphins and take care of God's nature.
O'Barry junior said it had been a difficult negotiation.
"There was a tense moment, there were a lot of questions in the village and change is not an easy thing in the village, and people resist and a scared of changing," he said.
O'Barry senior said it was not for him to judge a culture.
"I am not here to judge. If they are looking for an alternative we are here to support that effort," he said.
An agreement was signed.
"It is a once-in-a-lifetime thing. Most of our victories are few and far between and usually temporary," O'Barry senior said.
Visit Solomon Islands administrators said on the Facebook page they were deleting postings to save space.
"Our Heart goes out to all of you that Love Nature & Wild Life and Dolphins especially and those of you who Love Solomon Islands," the note said, adding Solomon Islanders had lived in harmony with nature for generations.
"The Solomon Islands is still a wonderful Island Country and there are still a lot of Dolphins."
A Kenyan responded on the site people wanted "justice for such an aggressive and violent act".
A New Zealander said the islands would lose tourism as the cull was now on the world front pages.
"How you handle it is an opportunity you should not squander."
Other comments included "it's a shame and the whole world is watching," and "your surroundings may be lovely but your people are ugly, cruel and despicable".

Dean Dodrill (very vaguely) hints at new Dust announcement
The whole world missed this one last week, but even the vaguest hint about the future prospects of Dust: An Elysian Tail is something you want to follow up on.
Dean Dodrill, the one-man-band behind the Xbox Live Arcade hit, took to Twitter and revealed that he actually has two projects in the works, one of which is related to Dust in some way:
@glidding @freesmon @ricodragonborn Thanks all for playing. I'll hopefully have something new to announce soon… Dust related and not.
— Dean Dodrill (@NoogyTweet) January 6, 2013
First announced in 2009, Dust: An Elysian Tail wasn't added to the XBLA until this past August, so Dodrill might have a different definition of "soon" than you or I. That said, any announcement will probably be worth the wait.

'90210' Will Get a Visit From Samantha Ronson
Another celebrity has been added to the guest star list of "90210" with the joining of Samantha Ronson. People reported the producers of The CW's popular drama series have confirmed that the famous deejay, who is also known as the on-and-off girlfriend of Lindsay Lohan, has indeed filmed an episode for the show.
For her part, she is expected to give advise to Michael Steger's Navid on matters of the heart. Her scenes take place in a club where hip-hop star Pharrell Williams and his group N.E.R.D also perform. While it isn't clear whether her role is a one-time thing or recurring, the one she has filmed will air on November 3.
Beside Ronson, the show has secured another guest star with Rumer Willis. The "Sorority Row" actress takes the role of Gia who is described as "Punky, cute, lesbian. Not afraid to speak her mind. A little bit of a spitfire." Featured in at least one episode, her character will share screen with Navid, Adrianna and Silver as they work on the school's paper Blaze News.
"90210" will return next Tuesday on September 29. In "The Porn King" episode, Dixon continues his whirlwind romance with Sasha by driving to Napa for the weekend, but a flat tire leads to a trunk of porn and a bunch of lies. Annie, in the meantime, finds her confident attitude quickly disappearing when she realizes that Jasper, the nephew of the man she hit on prom night, is a student at West Beverly.
Navid continues to run the Blaze News, assigning Silver and Gia to interview Jasper for a news piece about his uncle. Things get steamy when Adrianna confides in Teddy. And, Liam finds a way to get revenge on Jen and reveal the truth to Naomi about their night together at prom.

Ortiz, A.P., Sioban D. Harlow, M. Sowers, B. Nan, and J. Romaguera. 2006. "Age at Natural Menopause and Factors Associated with Menopause State among Puerto Rican Women aged 40-59 Years, Living in Puerto Rico." Menopause, 13(1): 116-124.
Objective: The timing of menopause is associated with multiple health outcomes in female populations including all-cause mortality, heart disease, breast cancer, and osteoporosis. Although research suggests that age at menopause varies in different ethnic groups, data on age at menopause among Hispanic women are limited.
Design: The present cross-sectional study estimates age at natural menopause among a sample of 1,272 Puerto Rican women aged 40 to 59 years who participated in health fairs held in 22 municipalities of Puerto Rico between May 2000 and November 2001. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis was used to characterize age at natural menopause and its association with relevant covariates.
Results: The overall adjusted median age at natural menopause was 51.3 years. Current employment (hazard ratio = 0.75, 95% Cl: 0.59-0.95) and parity of two or three children as compared with having no children or one child (hazard ratio = 0.73, 95% Cl: 0.54-0.98) were associated with a later menopause.
Conclusions: This study provides a robust estimate of age at menopause for Puerto Rican women, which is similar to overall estimates previously reported for US populations, but higher than estimates for other Hispanic populations. Our results confirm attributes associated with age at menopause and provide information relevant to understanding the potential chronic disease burden of Puerto Rican women as they age.

US Foreign Secretary Kerry to meet head of Syrian opposition
| updated at xx
US Foreign Secretary, John Kerry, is set to attend the Friends of Syria conference in Rome on Thursday February 28, where he will meet the head of Syria's opposition National Coalition, Moaz Al-Khatib.
A day earlier he attended a dinner with the foreign ministers of 23 transatlantic countries as part of his first European tour in the post, and at the conference he will be joined by his counterparts from France, Qatar and Turkey in the hope of finding a solution to the two-year conflict, that has killed an estimated 70,000 people so far.
This comes as a report from Norway's TV 2 claims the Syrian regime deliberately targets health personnel.
In Aleppo they found an ambulance that has been struck by a missile and the city hospital in ruins. They also found doctors and nurses who run an underground clinic, and who are too afraid to show their faces. They say if they are identified by the authorities it will mean death.They say they deal with around 200 wounded every day and conduct around eight operations.
In the street outside they met a man with a five-year-old girl who was injured when a bomb struck her home.

Acquia, the enterprise guide to the Drupal Social Publishing System, today announced it has achieved significant momentum during the first half of 2009. Fueled by a committed Drupal community and the changing perception of open source within enterprise markets, Acquia maintains its leadership position in Drupal social publishing with record quarters in corporate and customer growth.
Unprecedented Corporate and Customer Success
Following a successful Series B funding round which grew Acquia's venture capital investment to $15 million, the company has quadrupled its customer base since March 2009 and now delivers services and support to over 250 enterprise customers across a wide variety of markets embracing open source. Recent additions to Acquia's roster includes a range of enterprise, non-profit and higher-education organizations such as The Economist, Intuit, WEEI, Sony Music, University of Colorado, and George Mason University, among others. To support the rapidly growing client roster, Acquia has expanded its partner coalition to over 100 Drupal design, developer, and technology providers and increased its employee base to 40.
"The ability to generate content from our conservationists in the field is extremely important to us at The National Audubon Society. Drupal offers us the platform needed; Acquia enables us to feasibly deploy it," said Michael Callari, lead web developer at the National Audubon Society. "With any open source technology we need commercial support to give us the layer of assurance we need. Acquia makes the rollout of Drupal sites that much easier knowing there is someone we can call when we have questions or need assistance."
Drupal Adoption Surges
Cited by analyst Dion Hinchcliffe as one of the leading disruptive platforms within Enterprise 2.0, Drupal has caught fire within enterprise markets and is actively changing attitudes toward open source social publishing's place within organizations. Over the first half of 2009, the impact of Drupal is evident with downloads and project contributions continuing to spike:
- Over 400,000 active Drupal sites
- Over 4,000 contributed modules backed by thousands of active developers
- Nearly 60,000 downloads of Acquia Drupal, Acquia's distribution of Drupal
"The fact is, most businesses' sites are static and don't allow them to preserve their message or a meaningful connection with customers. We've been able to convince them that Drupal, with Acquia support, is the way to change that," said Tom Erickson, CEO of Acquia. "Our growth in the last six months is a testament to the fact that Acquia is giving businesses the confidence and assistance in Drupal that they need."
Commitment to Technology Expansion
Acquia's customer growth has also been driven by the company's focus on further building its network of subscription support services to foster greater enterprise adoption of Drupal. Acquia's latest technology accomplishments include enhancements to Acquia Hosting, Acquia Search, and Acquia Drupal, the packaged distribution of Drupal which allows a simple installation and on-ramp to Drupal for enterprise users.
Additionally, the company continues to focus substantial efforts on the upcoming launch of a Software as a Service (SaaS) version of Drupal, code-named Acquia Gardens. This new product is designed to bring the power of Drupal including social/community networking to small and medium sized businesses looking to build a social publishing site quickly and easily.
Community Contributions
Acquia has continued to work as part of the Drupal community to develop the platform for widespread use within enterprises. Acquia developers actively contribute code and play an active role on the Drupal security team. Acquia is also helping to fund the Drupal 7 usability efforts.
"Acquia's success to date speaks to the value of Acquia's offerings to both Drupal site owners and Drupal developers," said Dries Buytaert, CTO and founder of Acquia. "From Acquia Search to our upcoming release of the Acquia Gardens project, the development of the Drupal platform proves that corporate technology needs can be served by the open source community in an effective and relevant way."
About Acquia
Acquia helps organizations of all sizes build social publishing websites quickly, easily and with a lower total cost of ownership by leveraging Drupal, the open source social publishing platform that blends content and community. Our products, services and support enable companies to leverage the power, technical innovation and economic value of Drupal while simplifying the experience, removing the complexity and minimizing the risk. Please visit: http://acquia.com. Download Acquia Drupal, the completely free Drupal distribution, at http://acquia.com/downloads.
About Drupal
The Drupal social publishing system has been downloaded over two million times since its inception and powers more than 400,000 web sites globally. Drupal includes an enterprise class content management system and is used to deliver a wide variety of web applications including single or multi-user blogs, wikis, community networks, digital media portals, e-commerce, and many more. Assisted by a thriving ecosystem of consultants and developers, a diverse set of organizations use Drupal, including SonyBMG, Warner Brothers Records, the New York Observer, Forbes, Disney, Intel, Harvard University, and Amnesty International. A huge community has grown up around Drupal, with thousands of active contributors to the open source technology. For more information, visit http://drupal.org.
