Ms. Pauley was quick to point out the fairly incredible timing of her “Sunday Morning” debut: It will occur almost 40 years after her first day as a co-host on “Today.”
A four-run second inning, highlighted by Lonnie Chisenhall’s three-run blast, put Cleveland on the verge of its first American League Championship Series since 2007.

The storm passed with out the catastrophic effects forecasters had predicted, and on Friday, residents began to return to areas that had been evacuated.

2016In the wake of Hurricane Matthew, the death toll rises to nearly 900.[†]
Hurricane Matthew was a powerful tropical cyclone which caused catastrophic damage and a humanitarian crisis in Haiti, as well as widespread devastation in the southeastern United States. The deadliest Atlantic hurricane since Hurricane Stan in 2005, and the first Category 5 Atlantic hurricane since Felix in 2007, Matthew was the thirteenth named storm, fifth hurricane and second major hurricane of the 2016 Atlantic hurricane season. It caused extensive damage to landmasses in the Greater Antilles, and severe damage in several islands of the Bahamas which were still recovering from Joaquin, which had pounded the archipelago nearly a year earlier. Matthew also approached the southeastern United States, but stayed just offshore, paralleling the Florida coastline.
In 2016, the world population was approximately 7,558,554,526 people[†]
