Welcome to this week’s 205 Live review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and Donald Trump keeps trying to steal folks who protest racism. I like Robert Pinsky’s “Shirt” and I don’t wanna get soda all over it, so let’s just walk over here and review the cruiserweights.
Match #1: Drake Maverick def. Leon Ruff The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
It has been a whirlwind year for Drake Maverick, who enjoyed one of the most epic of Cinderella runs in WWE history during Nxt’s recent eight-man tournament to crown a new Nxt Cruiserweight Champion. Despite losing his first bout in that tourney, Maverick made it all the way to the finals before being edged by new champion Santos Escobar. After signing a new contract with WWE, the former 205 Live General Manager returned to his old stomping grounds for a collision with Leon Ruff,...

“Midway on our life’s journey, I found myself In dark woods, the right road lost. To tell About those woods is hard—so tangled and rough And savage that thinking of it now, I feel The old fear stirring: death is hardly more bitter.” Canto I, The Inferno of Dante (translated by Robert Pinsky) In [...]

Everett Collection Co-founder of the Russian Samovar and ballet dancer Mikhail Baryshnikov.
As rain whipped sideways, Roman Kaplan stood just outside the doorway of the Russian Samovar smoking a cigarette and greeting guests with the easy smile of an old friend.
A dapper man in a tan jacket, Kaplan founded the bar and restaurant on West 52nd Street 25 years ago, along with the poet Joseph Brodsky and ballet dancer Mikhail Baryshnikov.

When her sister committed suicide Jill Bialosky turned to poetry and fiction, but now she's written a memoir that wrestles with her death as she tells Jane Ciabattari.
Jill Bialosky is an energetic, focused fixture on the New York publishing scene-a poet, novelist, and long-time editor at W.W. Norton, with authors like Nicole Krauss, Lan Samantha Chang, Eavan Boland, Robert Pinsky, Honor Moore, and Mary Roach.

Bialosky can be seen often at literary gatherings in the Hamptons and New York City, awhirl in the crowd, heading from one friend or colleague to the next, or reading from her own work, with a distinct Midwestern twang, or at summer writers' conferences, like the one held in Taos this past July, listening intently as she goes over manuscripts with promising writers.

The run of the Metropolitan Opera's Damnation of Faust, designed by Canadian powerhouse designer Robert Lepage and his Ex Machina troupe, just started. We promise to give you a run-down of the opera's blitz of techno-imagery on Monday. Meanwhile, here are five high-tech operas that, depending on your tilt, either jar or excite the senses.
The Magic Flute
South African artist and visual director William Kentridge wowed audiences with his experimental, cinematic staging of Mozart's The Magic Flute in Belgium in 2005 and at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in 2007. Rendering the stage a landscape of animated projections and artwork timed to correspond to singers' movements and arias, he made the opera closer to a video work. Animations come from Kentridge's "erasures"--black-and-white drawings of silhouettes, birds, and apartheid-era South African subjects that are photographed, erased, redrawn, and then animated to give a grainy, flip book-style pace to the action on-stage.
