(PR) Lancaster, Pennsylvania - The Somerset Patriots (32-22, 67-50) earned a series win over the Lancaster Barnstormers (28-24, 66-49) with an 8-4 victory at Clipper Magazine Stadium Thursday evening. |
Somerset took an early 2-0 lead in the top of the first inning. Justin Pacchioli raced home from third on a passed ball to open the scoring before Nate Coronado added a two-out RBI single later in the inning. |
Ryan Casteel (14) got a run back for the Barnstormers in the bottom of the second on an opposite field solo home run to right. They later tied the game in the bottom of the fourth on a run-scoring wild pitch. |
The Patriots answered to take the lead with a five-run fifth inning. Jayce Boyd provided the lead with a 3-2 RBI single. Ramon Flores followed with a two-run single before two run-scoring errors from Lancaster shortstop Stephen Perez increased Somerset’s lead to 7-2. |
Rico Noel responded in the bottom of the sixth with a two-run double to bring the ‘Stormers back with three runs. |
Coronado followed with a two-out RBI single in the top of the eight to provide an 8-4 Patriots’ advantage and top off the scoring. |
Vince Molesky (7-2) earned the win after tossing five innings of two-run baseball. John Anderson (5-3) yielded six runs (four earned) over four-plus innings to suffer the loss. |

The creator of the "OscarsSoWhite" hashtag says she’s accepted an invitation to attend her first Academy Awards ceremony on Sunday. |
“After creating the hashtag and working for almost five years to turn it into a movement that not only changed the Academy but made its way into so many other industries, I feel immense pride and a sense of coming full circle, back to the where it all began,” April Reign told The Hollywood Reporter on Tuesday. |
Reign’s hashtag began trending on social media in 2016, after no black actors were nominated in the four acting categories for the second straight year in a row. |
Then-Academy President Cheryl Boone Isaacs said in a statement at the time that she was "heartbroken and frustrated about the lack of inclusion.” Boone called for "big changes" in the makeup of members who voted for the Oscars. |
This year, Spike Lee received the first “Best Director” and “Best Picture” Oscar nominations of his decades-long career for his film “BlacKkKlansman.” Lee is the sixth black filmmaker to be nominated in the directing category. |
“I’m going to give myself permission to think that the work that I and many who believe in issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion have done is having an impact,” Reign told the entertainment industry publication. |
The 91st annual Academy Awards airs Sunday on ABC. |
Spyce, a Somerville, Mass.-based restaurant concept that features a robotic kitchen, raised $21 million in Series A funding co-led by CollabFund and Maveron. |
Why it matters: Because this could be the future of fast-casual restaurants, although there are questions as to whether Spyce itself is being valued as a restaurant chain or a tech company. |
Other investors include return backer Khosla Ventures, and chefs Thomas Keller, Jerome Bocuse, Daniel Boulud and Gavin Kaysen. |
Mike Birbiglia directs, writes and stars in the crowd-pleasing comedy about a long-term couple. |
PARK CITY -- Much of the best comedy derives from personal pain, and comic turned filmmaker Mike Birbiglia deftly transposes his stand-up routine to the big screen. In its world premiere here at Sundance, Sleepwalk With Me charmed a morning packed-house, not an easy room to play. |
As a great comic elder once said: “A relationship is like a shark. Either it moves forward or it dies.” That's what long-term relationship couple Matt (Birbiglia) and Abby (Lauren Ambrose) have on their hands. He's a comedian/bartender with, at most, 11 minutes of tolerable material. She a go-getter who sees them as a ... |
Birbiglia's deft, breezy treatment of a serious relationship disorder, as well as a serious neurological sleeping problem, jells wonderfully. The comedy percolates in large part because of the likable lead performances of Birbiglia, whose easy self-deprecating ways overcoats Matt's character flaws. As his steadfast par... |
Credit to co-writers Birbiglia and Ira Glass for the frothy distillation of one man's pain. Birbiglia and co-director Seth Barrish keep the comedy from tilting into pathos, while maintaining a steady hand on the complex relationship issues which inspire the mirth. |
Michael Jackson's Kids Come Together for Family Dinner But Where's Grandma? |
Michael Jackson's Kids Do Family Dinner, Where's Grandma? |
Michael Jackson's sons, Prince and Blanket, got together with a few cousins for dinner in Bev Hills ... where Grandma Katherine had to be the hot topic. |
Tito's son TJ Jackson, who's been legal guardian of MJ's kid, was at Honor Bar Saturday evening with the group -- and we know he's smack in the middle of Katherine's battle with Trent Jackson. |
TMZ broke the story ... Trent's lawyers want TJ to sit down with Katherine and mediate her elder abuse claims against Trent. That could be difficult for TJ right now, because Katherine's been kept in hiding -- away from Michael's kids -- since she flew back to L.A. last week. |
Paris was not at the Saturday dinner because she attended the GLAAD Awards, but this was our first glimpse at Prince's awesome MJ tattoo in public. |
The kitchen, the bedroom, and other places should be off-limits to devices, says psychologist Sherry Turkle. |
As MIT professor and psychologist Sherry Turkle sees it, students are obsessed with perfection and invulnerability. That’s why they will email her their questions instead of coming to office hours. |
It’s all a sign that we’ve become too dependent on our devices to get us through life, as Turkle sees it. She inveighed not only against email-loving Millennials but also against new moms who would rather sit at home on their phones than go meet each other at the playground. |
She points to studies that show that having your phone on the table during mealtimes, even if it’s off, leads to reduced feelings of empathy. To truly turn the tide, Turkle said, there ought to be some no-phone times and places. |
When you’re picking your child up for school—it’s “heartbreaking” if you’re looking at your phone when your child wants your attention. |
With that, she was interrupted by someone’s iPhone alarm going off. |
Lea Michele announced on Saturday she is engaged to Zandy Reich. But who is he? |
The 31-year-old former Glee star and her 35-year-old beau make their relationship public last summer. Michele announced their engagement with a photo of her standing on a beach and flashing a 4-carat diamond ring. |
Check out five things to know about her fiancé. |
1. This Is How You Pronounce His Last Name: It is pronounced "Rich." |
2. He and Michele Have Been Friends for a Long Time: "They have been friends for a while and started dating recently," a source told E! News in July. |
3. He Graduated From President Donald Trump's Alma Mater: He attended the University of Pennsylvania and its Wharton School of Business and obtained a finance degree in 2005. |
4. He Used to Be a Jock: He developed leadership and teamwork skills as a starting senior caption for the lacrosse team. |
"Not only as a captain, but also as an older guy and one who has seen significant playing time, guys look to me as a role model," Reich told Penn Athletics. "I've learned how to lead by example. Actions speak louder than words, so they look to what I bring to the field and how I handle other situations. But, other peop... |
5. He Is the President of Apparel Company AYR: The name stands for "All Year Round." He previously worked for Goldman Sachs, the investment banking company Renaissance Capital and the apparel company Theory. |
The flu has further tightened its grip on the U.S. This season is now as bad as the swine flu epidemic nine years ago. |
This season started early and has been driven by a nasty type of flu that tends to put more people in the hospital and cause more deaths than other more common flu bugs. |
But its long-lasting intensity has surprised experts, who are still sorting out why it’s been so bad. Flu usually peaks in February. |
Some doctors say this is the worst flu season they’ve seen in decades. Some people are saying that, too. |
Last week, 43 states had high patient traffic for the flu, up from 42, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported. Flu remained widespread in every state except Hawaii and Oregon and hospitalizations continued to climb. |
So far, however, deaths this season from the flu and flu-related pneumonia have lagged a little behind some recent bad seasons. There are as many as 56,000 deaths connected to the flu during a bad year. |
The CDC said the amount of suspected flu cases at doctor office and hospitals last week matched that seen in 2009, when a new swine flu epidemic swept the country and panicked many people. Swine flu, also called pandemic H1N1, was a new strain that hadn’t been seen before. It first hit that spring, at the tail end of t... |
Health officials have said this year’s vaccine targets the flu viruses that are currently making people sick. However, preliminary studies out of Australia and Canada have found the shot was only 10 to 20 percent effective in those countries. How well it is working the U.S. won’t be known until next week. |
This year, illnesses are commonly being reported in people who got a flu shot. Albertson said she did in late October. Jossi didn’t. |
Bathinda: In a first-of-its-kind case, the special staff unit of Bathinda police on Wednesday seized 440 cases of liquor from a private buses of Haryana and a car which was escorting it. |
While 410 cases had been kept in the bus, the remaining were in the car. The bus was not carrying a single passenger when it was stopped for checking and the alchol had been kept under its passenger seats. This is not the first time liquor smugglers have been caught in Bathinda. However, it is the first time that a pri... |
In the run-up to panchayat elections, police had made several seizures of liquir smuggled in from Haryana. At the time, the smuggling attempts had been made in cars, canters and even two-wheelers. The seizures were made near Naruana village in Bathinda. |
The bus has a registration number of Rajasthan (RJ 13PA 4817), but was being used by Sirsa-based transporter Kissan Bus Service. |
Punjab Police special staff sub-inspector Jaspal Singh said they had gotten a tip-off about the smuggling attempt. “We have arrested Haryana residents Deepak, Sukha, Subash Chander, Harinder and Paramjit Singh. They were traveling in the bus and the car. We have also booked bus contractor Ravinder Kumar and liquor cont... |
He said they were now trying to ascertain the source and destination of the consignment. A case under the Excise Act has been registered at Bathinda Sadar police station. |
Smuggling of alcohol from Haryana into Punjab has turned into a problem for liquor contractors in Bathinda. Recently, liquor contractors had announced a reward of Rs 300 per case for anyone who provided providing information about such attempts. |
Smuggling is rampant because of the big difference of price of liquor in Haryana and Punjab, pegged at nearly Rs 800 per case of 12 bottles. |
The massive success of Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland three years ago kicked off an at-times wearying string of fairy tale updates (Red Riding Hood, Snow White and the Huntsman, Mirror Mirror, Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, Jack the Giant Slayer, ABC’s “Once Upon a Time”). That film’s $330 million domestic box offic... |
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas up in the hills above Heredia, north of San José. It’s not so much the blinking Christmas lights or the improbable (in the tropics) inflatable snowmen. The real harbinger of the season in this neck of the woods is the parade of Christmas trees strapped to SUV roofs, peeking o... |
Heredia is the year-round vivero for most of the cypress trees that will decorate homes throughout the Central Valley. The climate and the soil are perfect for cultivating the Tico version of Scotch pine or Fraser fir. All along the roads linking San Isidro and San Rafael de Heredia, homemade “Se vende árboles de Navid... |
If you’re in the market for a Christmas tree, why not combine your tree hunt with a day in the country? It’s not quite “Over the river and through the woods to grandmother’s house.” There won’t be snow or sleigh rides. But the cooler temperatures in the Heredia heights may put some roses in your cheeks. And while you’r... |
Christmas-tree country starts about 10 kilometers north of downtown San José, on the Guápiles highway. The first tree farm you’ll see, on the right side of the road, is Ciprés Benavides. Miguel Angelo Benavides has been growing and selling Christmas trees here for 11 years. He estimates that about 5,000 cypress trees o... |
Benavides says it takes about four years for a cypress to grow from seedling to Christmas-tree size, about two meters. It’s a fairly sustainable crop, but for those who can’t bear to cut down a tree, Benavides also sells small trees in macetas (pots) that you can plant in your yard after their Christmas tour of duty in... |
The next tree farm along the highway, Quinta San Luis, is less than a kilometer farther north. In business for eight years, this finca looks more like a traditional tree lot, very neat and tidy, with about 8,000 trees spread across 2.5 hectares. From the reception area, all you can see is a sea of cypress stretching ea... |
Just before the turnoff for San Isidro de Heredia, Vivero El Zamorano is the granddaddy of tree farms, in business since 1971. This highway location has about 7,000 cypress trees to choose from. But El Zamorano’s other claim to fame is poinsettias, or pastoras. Make the left turn off the highway onto the road marked Sa... |
From El Zamorano, follow the road west about 3 km to San Isidro de Heredia, one of the most picturesque coffee towns in the country. The smooth, paved road winds up and down past green pastures, fields filled with ornamental plants, prosperous homes and gardens with huge hydrangea blossoms, towering dahlias and bloomin... |
Continue on the signposted road through San Isidro uphill toward Concepción de San Rafael de Heredia. This is as winding as a road can get, narrowing to one lane at a series of bridges. But it’s well paved and you’ll be rewarded with flashes of flower gardens and valley views as you climb up to 1,450 meters above sea l... |
Just around the corner where the dirt road meets a wide paved road is Arboles Montealto, a much smaller enterprise, typical of the friendly, mom-and-pop tree farms throughout the area. |
From here, follow the wide paved road half a kilometer south to the main Concepción intersection, where you’ll see the landmark Licorera y Super Camacho. A left turn will take you back to the Guápiles highway via San Isidro. A right turn will take you down into San Rafael de Heredia, home to another handsome neo-Gothic... |
Prices range from ¢2,000 (about $3.60) for tabletop trees to ¢100,000 ($179) for monumental trees. Prices also vary depending on branch density, so a two-meter tree – the average height – can cost ¢5,000 to ¢10,000 ($9 to $18). Weekends are the most active time for tree-shopping, but most tree farms are open during the... |

To avoid any mis-Concepción: There are two Concepciones within a few kilometers of each other above San Isidro. Make sure you are heading north and west to Concepción de San Rafael, not Concepción de San Isidro, which is due north of San Isidro. From the Megasuper in San Isidro, turn right (north) at the corner, then t... |
And what’s a Christmas-tree expedition without a cup of hot chocolate to warm you up?

Shoppers stormed The Shops at Park Lane in advance of Bloomingdale's Outlet's Thursday opening. |
Ashley Fischer used her lunch break to see what the new store has to offer. She said she called her girlfriends to let them know about the new store. |
"We've done trips to New York just to shop Bloomingdale's, so we're very excited about it," she said. |
Designer handbags, clothes, accessories and shoes line the 25,000 square feet of space. It's the first of two Bloomingdale's Outlets that will open in North Texas this year. |
The new Bloomingdale's The Outlet Store opened at The Shops at Park Lane in Dallas, giving shoppers a chance to take home designer clothes, shoes, handbags and accessories without breaking the bank. |
"We think we're giving the customer what they're asking for -- the great brands of Bloomingdale's, great fashion merchandise and great savings," Arnie Orlick, senior vice president of Bloomingdale's outlet stores said. |
Orlick said customers can expect to see regularly priced items marked off up to 70 and 80 percent. |
