With TechToberFest just around the corner, we wanted to take a look back at our most recent Dyn Connect event in June. Dyn Connect, held in New York City, was a half-day event bringing together industry thought leaders discussing the future of Internet Performance and technology changes that are driving the state of the Internet. Participants included:
- Alex Bolduc, Director of Infrastructure and Business Intelligence, Gogotech, an online retail group operating multiple websites and developing unique creative content.
- Andrey Akselrod, Co-Founder & CTO, Smartling, an automated, cloud-based translation management platform and comprehensive translation services.
- Dan Lotterman, Lead DevOps Engineer of Bit.ly, a URL shortening service for use in social networking, SMS, and email.
- Chris Henry, Head of Operations, Behance, an Adobe business unit and online platform where creative professionals can showcase their portfolios and where businesses can find talent.
- Alex Yuriev, Head of Site Reliability Engineering, Livestream, a live streaming video platform that allows users to view and broadcast video through the Internet.
- And Matt Larson, CTO, Dyn.
During a panel discussion, Matt asked the participants to share their thoughts about Internet Performance. Here's what they had to say…
Matt: How seriously does your company take Internet Performance for your various web properties?
Alex Bolduc, Gogotech: It's definitely a serious concern. We're in e-commerce where speed equals conversion, and that's the name of the game for us.
Andrey Akselrod, Smartling: It's absolutely critical for our business, too.
Dan Lotterman, Bit.ly: If we're not performing you can believe that the internet is going to start screaming at us.
Chris Henry, Behance: Performance is a budget item for us. Every time we do something new, we have to look at what that does to performance. Did it hurt us? Did it Did it hurt our CDN performance? What do we need to do in order to get things back to optimal? Keeping a really close eye on that is critical to us.
Matt: Alex, what about you? How important is performance?
Alex Yuriev, Livestream: There's performance, and the perception of performance, right? To some people the first might mean, "How long until the page is fully loaded?" And the second is really about user experience.
You want to provide a user experience that gives the user the feeling that something is happening. Your page load might load its entirety faster than your competitor's site, but if your competitor is starting showing images and providing things that the user can interact with, there's a good chance that they may be providing a better end user experience.
Matt: I'll open this up to anybody rather that going in any particular order here. What gaps do you have? In other words, what might there be that you want to measure that you can't or don't?
Andre: I think the biggest problem is figure out what to measure rather than what tool to use. The better question would be, what are we measure? What do we need to measure? Collecting too much data is also not going to be helpful. You have a lot of data, but how do you interpret it? What do you do with it?
Alex: When we take a look at our entire infrastructure as a system, this finite set of interrelated components, we want to have probes in different locations to help us isolate issues faster. what a customer will be experiencing, and be able to help us identify problems.

WESTMONT — The administration`s actions against Libya and Col. Moammar Khadafy seem to be the response of a juvenile with an inferiority complex. We are not simply dealing with the Barbary pirates all over again.
What the administration seems not to realize is that one cannot either reason with or effectively threaten a Khadafy. Both will produce negative results. Meanwhile, we have succeeded in solidifying the Moslem world against the United States and Israel. To what purpose? We, by this silly action, have done more to endanger U.S. lives and interests than almost anything else we could do.

When: Thursdays-Sundays. Continues through Nov. 10 2012
The killers of Abraham Lincoln, John Kennedy, James Garfield, and William McKinley—as well as five other men and women who missed their presidential targets—perform a vaudeville-style revue in this 1990 musical by Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman. Spot-on pastiches of popular music and cheerfully dark sketches explore the seedy underbelly of the national mythology, the assassins' obsessions and delusions presented as warped versions of the American dream. The enterprise requires a degree of irony entirely absent from Billy Pacholski's gung-ho production. Set in front of Frank Mares's too-literal projections (John Hinckley Jr. mentions Jodie Foster and, sure enough, her face pops up), the cast look way too earnest and wholesome to pass as desperate psychos. —Zac Thompson
Price: $45; $100 on election night

In her book Guide to Newspapers in Hawaii 1834-2000, Hawaii newspaper historian Helen Chapin listed and categorized most newspapers created in Hawaii from 1834, when missionaries printed the first newspapers in Hawaii. The following table shows the numbers of newspapers by titles, islands, languages, and categories compiled by Chapin and the numbers of newspapers in Chronicling America:
Chapin created 29 categories for the newspapers:
Represents the mainstream or dominant power. Pro-American business, pro-sugar, pro-annexation.
Voices anti-establishment or countervailing views. Not necessarily pro-Hawaiian.
Pro-monarchy, anti-annexation.

You stand out from the crowd. You expect more from yourself - and you deliver.
Perhaps you've already made your mark and you're ready for new adventures. Perhaps the best is yet to come. Either way, you recognize the value and status that come from flying yourself where you want to go when you want to go there. Whether it's that important out-of-town meeting, a golf outing to a favorite course, or a weekend getaway with someone special, getting there quickly matters most for people whose time is valuable.
When you're ready to take the next big step on your path of extraordinary achievement, why not do something that's exciting and practical?
By investing roughly 80 hours of your time, you can join another elite group - the less than 0.2 percent of Americans who possess the skill, commitment and wherewithal to become an FAA-certified private pilot.
And there's no better place to do it than with people who understand what makes you so special. You know how to take charge.
Now it's time to take flight.
Schedule Test Flight
We encourage prospective students to take a short flight with us to make certain that our teaching approach is best suited for you. Schedule your test flight today in order take that important first step towards spreading your wings and learning to fly.
Our Mission
To help individuals spread their wings and learn to fly in a safe, fun, and affordable manner.
Our Instruction Team
Balance. It's a critical element in flight. And, a decided plus when it comes to flight instruction. At Learn to Fly, we draw together passion and energy with experience and wisdom.
Shawn May
Owner Shawn May has been flying since he was 14 when his love for flying was sparked by the Civil Air Patrol. Now in his early 20s, May brings flight experience well beyond his years and infuses his energy and passion for aviation in those around him.
Levels of Pilot Training
Every pilot in the sky will tell you that learning never ends... Part of it is the necessity of keeping skills sharp and up-to-date. And part is the sheer pleasure of increasing knowledge, ability and confidence. Learn to Fly's staff has taken many men and women on their journey from novice to accomplished pilot. After completing their ground and air training to earn their private pilot certificate, many pilots are eager to advance to the next level of proficiency. And we're here to help you achieve each new step, including:
Charles W.
"They are great and this is a must do. It is great for kids."
Scott Luciano

Frequently Asked Questions
Learning to fly takes time and a commitment, but ground school materials are written at the ninth-grade level and, from a hand-coordination standpoint, the actual operation of a plane is similar to driving a stick-shift car.
The written test commonly holds people back when trying to obtain their licence. At Lean to Fly we recommend you start studying for the written test prior to taking lessons. This will speed up the learning process and ultimately save you money.
No. The only requirement is that your vision must be correctable to 20/20.
No. The only requirement to fly solo is to pass a medical exam.
Students can begin to learn to fly before age 14 but cannot solo until then. The minimum age for a recreational permit is age 16. The minimum age for a private pilot's license is 17. The minimum age for a commercial license is 18.
It certainly is. At Learn to Fly, our flight instructors' schedules are designed to accommodate yours. So, whether you prefer mornings and weekdays or your schedule requires weekends and evenings, we'll be there to guide you every step of the way when you're ready to begin mastering the skies.
Owner Shawn May's passion for helping others started at an early age and has continued as a disaster relief volunteer with Hurricane Sandy, the Haiti earthquake and other crises. "That belief transitions into my teaching philosophy. I'm a very patient person. I know that just because the instructor knows and understands something, it doesn't mean the student knows and understands it after the first, second or even third time sometimes. My ultimate goal is to help everyone succeed. It can take time to accomplish that goal -- and I'm more than willing to put in the necessary time."
Those schools have their place, but often they're focused on training pilots for a career in the airline industry. At Learn to Fly, we work one-on-one with our students to provide a personalized, hands-on experience that creates competent, confident yet careful pilots who enjoy flight even as they understand the responsibilities that go with the role.
Absolutely. We encourage prospective students to take a short flight with us to make certain that our teaching approach is best suited for you.
Typically, our students begin in one of two well-maintained Piper Cherokees, a single-engine, four-seat aircraft that has long been a favorite for flight instruction because of its stability in crosswinds and solid feel at lower airspeeds. In fact, it has a well-earned reputation as one of the safest and most stable planes in the sky.
Without a doubt, it is. Earning a private pilot's license benefits teenagers in a number of way, ranging from instilling discipline and developing self-confidence to giving them a practical new skill and a tremendous sense of accomplishment. Statistically speaking, flight is many times safer than driving a car. Teens who fly have a greater appreciation for the value of caution, planning and focus. They also command greater respect for their maturity and ability. Flight instruction is an opportunity to add to a youngster's resume, giving them just one more advantage over so many others.

The history of the Nordic Region (including Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Iceland, Greenland) as well as outlying provinces such as Swedish Pomerania and the former Caribbean colonies, is examined in this unique and exhaustive study. Focusing on social identities, spiritual values, the integration and exclusion of ethnic and other groups, attitudes towards authority, family life and sexual identity as well as the influences of climate and natural geography, Neil Kent provides an architectural, artistic and social history of the region. The Soul of the Northmakes use of the singular and extant forms of architecture and the visual arts, as well as statistics and other documentary evidence. A wide range of issues are covered: pietism; prostitution; the role of women; gender values in art and architecture; attitudes towards children and authority; slavery and criminality; political expression and symbolism; social symbiosis with nature; the exigencies of climate on architecture; and architectural patronage and its use as an expression of social status. All are set against a background of the major philosophical, political and social events of the period, with an emphasis on national and regional diversities. A unique, comprehensive and wide-ranging history of the area, this book will interest the general reader and specialist alike.As a result, this legal prohibition on conversion to Catholicism continued to exist for more than a century. ... But, the ownership of land in Sweden, as well as the membership of craft guilds, remained barred to them. ... David and Saul (illus.

By Dr. Meg Jordan, PhD, RN, CWP, Global Medicine Hunter
It's with great sadness that I read the news this past week. The reports of Guatemalans intentionally infected with venereal disease by U.S. government health researchers in the mid-1940s disgusts all of us. I am grateful to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for publicly apologizing to the Guatemalan president and making amends. Who knows how much suffering this act of medical hubris (life-threatening testing on "brown skin people who live elsewhere") has caused? There is an undertone of Tuskegee running through this Guatemalan study, although stark differences occur.
For one thing, the 600-plus Guatemalans who were encouraged to sleep with infected prostitutes (and when that didn't infect some, had pathogens scratched into their skin) were supposedly treated, although no documentation about the success of that treatment is available. For all we know, STDs were passed on to spouses, other adults, and children while disability and premature death ensued.
The other act is of course one more in a dreadful series: another suicide of a young queer person who succumbed to relentless cyber-bullying and harassment. Speak out, act out, make a stance however and wherever you can against such acts of hatred and discrimination, subtle and obvious, of a similar nature. Fill the blogs and live by example to transform culture now.
Just as Maslow mapped out a hierarchy of needs, there is a similar hierarchy of well-being in which societies can flourish: First, safety, then tolerance, then acceptance, finally on to celebration of diversity.
As a medical anthropologist, I chronicle how societies transform themselves from bastions of brutality to beacons of social justice, once we teach ourselves and others how to thrive in an atmosphere of safety. Next, we become accustomed to a safe environment, and grow to understand how tolerating what we don't understand, but tolerating it anyway, brings an added measure of health.
However, tolerance is not ideal, it's dismissive and coated in superiority. Societies must move from tolerance to wider acceptance in order to further their own goals of mutual respect and shared progress.
Finally, a stage of moving from acceptance to celebration requires that we no longer simply tolerate or accept diversity, we highlight it as life-affirming, rich with interest, strength and excitement. These matured societies are also marked by a commitment to ensuring none of its members suffer from vast health or income disparities that drag down the society as a whole.
Unfortunately, we have some stark examples in the U.S. just this past week that our society is nowhere near this level of acceptance or diversity. For that matter, I wonder if we've slid from past gains in previous decades where tolerance was the goal.
There is something heinous about elements in our society which fester cyber-bullying and harassment of children of difference, and also work to dismantle the Affordable Health Care Act, which finally removed the ability of insurance companies to deny children with pre-existing conditions.
These acts are cut from the same cloth: one of fear, laced with greed and reactionary, ignorant hatred.
But there is also a rising hue and cry among those who were formerly in a trance by the economic downturn, wondering where our own safe landing may occur among financial sharks and health care bullies.
There really is no safety for all of us if there is none for the weakest among us.
Stand together and shake off the icy chill that descends when we encounter these dreadful acts.
- Safeguard a child who shows signs of being "different."
- Voice your insistence that health care is a right.
- Make a stand against indifference of medical testing on people of color, people on distant shores, those assumed to be of less worth so that we can somehow use them as guinea pigs in unethical, inhumane manner. It still continues with vaccine testing and will continue by those with an eye on profits versus well-being of the whole, not the few.

STARTING AT THE Five Brooks Trailhead at the Point Reyes National Seashore, the hiking trails wind up a ridge into a rain forest-like landscape where sights and sounds tantalize the imagination.
Following the Olema Valley, Bolema, Ridge and Greenpicker trails creates a moderately strenuous 7-mile loop hike that climbs the ridge and crosses Firtop, the 1,324-foot summit.
The old logging pond at Five Brooks Trailhead is a good spot to look for wildlife. Peek through the trees that surround the pond to scan the water for ducks, turtles, frogs and newts. Songbirds and hawks also may be seen in the area.
Walk south on the Olema Valley Trail as it cuts through a thick forest of bay, alder and Douglas fir trees. Turn right, and hike up the Bolema Trail's steady grade. Watch for huge old Douglas firs beside the trail. Some of them have grown to tremendous size. You'll also pass stands of Monterey pines that were planted.
Even though Marin has not received rain in months, the Bolema Trail is dotted with moist areas and muddy spots. If you're hiking on a foggy day, you'll know why. Moisture from the damp fog collects on the tree branches and falls like rain. In some of the low places, the water doesn't drain away and the mud never seems to dry.
Fog and wind can transform the forest into a mystical place. Swaying tree limbs rub making eerie sounds and the mist paints the forest shades of gray with big black giants looming overhead.
At the top of the ridge, turn right onto the Ridge Trail and continue along the crest. Even on sunny days, trees block the view of the ocean. Firtop isn't a dramatic peak. In fact, if you don't see the small sign that marks the high point on the ridge, you probably won't notice that you passed it.
Join the Greenpicker Trail, and follow it downhill. This footpath skirts a large ravine as it weaves through more dense forest. The moisture nourishes large thimbleberry bushes, giant sword ferns and vines stringing down the steep slopes. The scene looks like an impenetrable jungle, and the hoot of an owl seems appropriate in the wilderness setting. As you descend, gaze at treetops rising from the ravine. Some have huge osprey nests.
Follow the Stewart Trail downhill to complete the loop back to the logging pond and the parking lot.
To reach Five Brooks at the Point Reyes National Seashore, follow Sir Francis Drake Boulevard west to Olema. Turn left on Shoreline Highway, drive south four miles and watch for the Five Brooks sign.

Bishop Cocktail is a classic Wine cocktail made by blending Lemon Juice, Orange Juice and Red Wine. Large measures of fruit juices make this delightful concoction a fruity punch. The recipe of this amazing cocktail can be traced back to the Old Waldorf Astoria Bar Book, which presents two versions of this enticing drink – Rum based and Wine based. Burgundy was originally used to make this wine-based cocktail.
Bishop is made especially to beat the heat of summer. It is popular in the tropics as a sweet, fruity concoction. Some bartenders make this mix spicy by muddling cloves, cinnamon and other spices with fresh pieces of lemon or orange. A teaspoon of sugar is also added to make this drink slightly sweet. You can increase the quantity of orange juice to make this mix tangier. This refreshing cocktail is best served in a High Ball Glass filled with 2 or 3 ice cubes only.
Cocktail recipes and articles are intended only for audience above the Legal Drinking Age as specified by their state & country of residence. Enjoy Responsibly.

A variation on the expletive bull shit. This version dabbles in a slightly more suggestive area of the animal, creating more vulgar reaction in those listening. In some, it could cause a visualization of the animal's ample anatomy creating an uneasy feeling of inadequacy, which will aid the user in his attempt to prove superior in the situation. It is a subtle twist, but a surprising and powerful one, which will ensure that the user of this word is heard. It is a statement of disbelief and/or disgust.
"See that girl over there? I just gave her yoni the old in out in out."

Many couples want to incorporate the colors of fall into their wedding day. Looking for fall wedding ideas for your wedding favors? Popular favors available in fall colors include gift and favor bags, favor boxes, napkins, matchbooks and ribbon.
Wedding Gift Bags are an excellent way to say thank you to out-of-town guests or wedding parties. Image a Cabernet gift bag custom printed in Antique Satin or Metallic Gold with a personal thank you from the bride and groom or a Harvest Gold gift bag personalized with a special thank you in Platinum Satin or Ebony Matte. These are just a couple possible fall color combinations you can use for you wedding guest favors.
Favor Boxes are used for sweet treats like pillow mints, truffles or Jordan almonds or small favor gifts including votive candles and soaps. Favor boxes are traditionally placed at each table setting for guest to enjoy at the wedding or take home when they leave. Cake slice boxes are also popular at the wedding cake table.
Elegant, convenient and neat, cake slice boxes are perfect for sending a slice of cake home with your guests. Favor boxes are available in many colors to compliment your fall wedding cake. For example, you may want to use a Burgundy cake box, imprinted with the bride and groom's name, wedding date and a leaf-shaped design in Metallic Gold or Metallic Silver.
Personalized Wedding Napkins are available in an assortment of vivid fall colors including Cranberry, Raspberry, Red, Orange, Harvest Gold, Primrose Yellow, Gold, Evergreen and Sage. Wedding Napkins are also available in a variety of sizes and shapes for every aspect of your wedding reception, from the cocktail bar to the guest rooms.
What if you cannot find favors in a color that matches your fall wedding? You've looked high and low, spending hours on the internet and in boutiques but cannot find a favor that matches your fall wedding colors. Consider using a white base with a fall imprint color. For example, you are looking for a Burnt Orange paper napkin for your guest tables but you find that no one makes a Burnt Orange napkin. Consider ordering a white napkin personalized with a Pumpkin Matte imprint color.
Another example would be custom printed matchbooks. Matchbooks are available in a limited assortment of colors but with a white matchbook, many fall colors including reds, yellows and browns can be used when imprinting the bride and groom's name and wedding date.
Fall Wedding Designs can also be hard to find. Consider using a Maple leaf or Oak leaf design printed above the bride and groom's name and wedding date.
Whatever your reason for having a fall wedding may be, we hope these fall wedding ideas for favors help to make your wedding day perfect!

My Mom and I have been throwing around the idea of starting a yearly Mother-Daughter holiday for a while now.
I had plans — oh did I have plans… Taking her through the Cotswolds in the UK or searching through shops in France for that perfect hand painted needlepoint canvas she's always wanted.
Then it happened. Merger. Downsizing.
Suddenly, after almost 12 years I was unemployed, in Greenland. Helpless…hopeless…
OK OK , maybe I'm just stealing that last part from The Princess Bride but I do recall feeling that way a bit.
What does one DO after having had the same job for over a decade (aside from building this fine website showcasing my passions)?
Well, to start with, she plans a vacation, perhaps a little closer to home and not so expensive. So now for the POINT of this…
June 1-5!!
We're taking (mostly) different classes so that we can then share the knowledge later. Smart, right? I'll try my best to document the trip, when my hands are hammering, knitting, printing or drop spindling!!
What classes AM I taking you may be wondering?
Knitting with Matawa taught by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee <– Yep, I'm taking a class with the Yarn Harlot. ***Yippee*** Her books crack me up — ***Must pack books for her to sign***
Botanical Printing taught by Maya Donenfeld <– after the renovation I have some things planned for bringing the garden in to the upholstery.
The Three Tools taught by Terri Dautcher
Start to Spindle Taught by Denny McMillan
AND — To top it ALL off — one of my absolute favorite singers will be opening the session — Jonatha Brooke! Yeah!! ***Must pack CDs for her to sign***
I'm also looking at this as research because I'd LOVE to teach here next Spring. One of my goals is to start lining up more teaching work. I've enjoyed teaching the NYFE program for Marist College and some sewing, cooking and knitting classes locally, but I really want to get on the teaching circuit that I've watched develop over the last few years.
I'll keep you posted on that!

One of Burnham pavilions in Millennium Park to close next week for repairs
Now that architect Zaha Hadid's pod-shaped pavilion celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Burnham Plan has opened, nearly seven weeks late, organizers plan to close the other pavilion for four days next week. The reason: It's being beaten up by the public.
The pavilion (left), designed by Dutch architect Ben van Berkel and his UNStudio, will be closed for repairs beginning Tuesday, said Emily Harris, director of the Burnham Plan Centennial Committee. It consists of parallel steel-framed slabs, covered in plywood and painted white, with scoop-like forms in between.
The damage, Harris said, "has occurred from people who are climbing on the scoops and running up to them and hitting them with a force of weight that's forcing the paint to come off and damaging it both aesthetically and allowing water to penetrate. We're concerned that this needs to be fixed in order to allow the pavilion to make it through its run."
The pavilion is scheduled to remain open through October 31. Hadid's pavilion opened Tuesday after weeks of delays that resulted when the first contractor hired for the project couldn't build it. A second contractor had to finish the job.
Already, people are stepping on some of the low-lying fabric walls of the Hadid pavilion and leaving footprints. "The good news about that is that it's dirt that's removable," Harris said. But she added: "We are exploring with the architects what kind of railings we might put in around those corners where people are stepping on the fabric."
Before the UNStudio pavilion opened, Harris recalled, organizers of the Burnham Plan centennial asked the architects whether people would climb on it.
Their reply, Harris said: "Oh no, it's much too steep."

Got a full-time job and still want to rid your travel bug? I got some tips. I've read the blogs where these travelers quit their job to travel full-time, or watched youtube videos of how amazing their life was after they made the decision to leave their 9-5. Props to them for taking a big risk and succeeding!
I have to say, I thought about it too… but I just cannot commit to that. At least for now. I enjoy my career and what I do, but this also funds my travelling adventures, I have the right balance, why would I leave that? My situation does not allow me to travel full-time and heck I don't even have many days off to do so, but I make it work, you just gotta be flexible!
If you're just starting out in the adult world, many fulltime positions only give you 2-3 weeks of paid vacation plus a few "personal" days. In my opinion, its not enough, but think about it this way… You are getting paid to go on vacation!
Here's my secret:
You don't have to take the 2-3 weeks vacation all at once. Sure, you get more of a "break" but I learned when you're on vacation, you don't really get "rest". So the day after that long flight will still leave you tired either way. Besides, I don't want to be working for the entire year and yearning for my one "break". Be smart with your days off and BREAK IT UP. Visit multiple countries! I like to tie in my vacation days around long weekends and maximize my time off. I'm utilizing this coming Easter weekend for a trip to Lisbon. How cool is it to tell your friends you are going to Portugal for the weekend? I only took two vacation days FYI and I have a full 4.5 days in Lisbon! Just don't get CRAZY and go to Thailand for the weekend, be SMART!
Pro tip:
Try to find a flight that leaves after your work day. For example, I finish work at 5PM this Thursday and my flight leaves at 8:30PM. Totally enough time to get to the airport within 3.5 hours. Just make sure you're all packed and ready to jet set straight from the office (PS. No one should EVER judge you for that). You arrive the following day bright and early and voila! You are in another country!
If your company has something like flex hours, or "summer" hours, then utilize that too! Some places let you leave half day on a Friday or a full day off as long as you work those hours throughout the week. This is your key to quick getaways in the summer. Last year, I went to New York City by leaving the office on a Friday at 1pm and tying it in with one of the long weekends. If you want to go for a longer trip but take less days off, then this is the prime time! 10 days in Thailand with only 3 vacation days? Doable but I'll let you figure that one out 😉
You could easily fit in 3-4 vacations throughout the year. I usually like to do 2-3 small ones and 1 BIG vacation!
You don't' have to be drastic and quit your job to travel. All I'm doing is putting a twist to "getting paid to travel".
Am I wrong?

UVA-Clem: Supporting Cast Leads Cavaliers to Upset WinFebruary 15, 2009
Holy upsets, Batman!
It appears miracles really do happen on Valentine's Day weekend.
The Virginia Cavaliers had lost eight straight games heading into this afternoon's contest.
Their lone win in 2009 had come against Brown University and a ninth loss would equal their longest slide in 35 years.
Virginia has a redshirt freshman point guard going up against a tenacious and aggressive Clemson press.
It was playing a team that had beaten them by 30 last year in Charlottesville, and Virginia's best player on that team, Sean Singletary, was too busy getting his jersey retired at halftime to be of any help to this year's squad.
In other words, coming into this match Clemson was going to be Godzilla and Virginia was playing the role of Tokyo.
So how did the Virginia Cavaliers shock the college basketball world and knock out the No. 12 Clemson Tigers 85-81?
For that answer, we need to go back to a few weeks ago.
Virginia was trailing 42-22 to Boston College at home and the Cavaliers looked destined for another humiliating loss.
Then Virginia coach Dave Leitao drew a line in the sand.
He started the second half with Slyven Landesberg, Jeff Jones, Calvin Baker, Solomon Tat and Assane Sene.
Then Leitao kept them out there for 19 minutes of action before a foul out and injury forced his hand.
Solomon Tat had barely appeared in any games in his Virginia career and Jeff Jones had multiple DNP's already on the season.
So why the bizarre line-up that had a 6'5" guard playing power forward?
"I wasn't really interested in playing anybody who wasn't going to play the game in the right way."
Specifically ouch to Sammy Zeglinski and Mike Scott, the two starters who saw nothing but the bench in the second half of that game.
You could make a laundry list of reasons to explain Virginia's poor ACC performance this season, but a great deal of Virginia's poor form is because of Scott and Zeglinski's inconsistency.
Mike Scott is Virginia's second best player behind freshman phenom Sylven Landesberg and today he acted like it.
Landesberg is one of the top scorers in the ACC and Virginia fans have come to expect 20-point performances from him—just like his 23 points that brought Virginia to victory against the Tigers.
Scott's 18 points this afternoon, though, are something Virginia fans have been waiting on for quite some time.
Scott is Virginia's second leading scorer with 10.8 points per game, but had scored in double figures only once in his previous five games.
As good as Scott is, he has a tendency to drift out of the game. Blame it on the fact that Virginia has done a terrible job over the year of getting him the ball in the paint but slumping your shoulders and feeling sorry for yourself is not going to make your teammates want to give you the ball.
Scott has mentioned that, even as a sophomore, he wants to be a leader on this team.
Well Scott certainly has the talent to be a leader, now he has to exude the confidence and toughness of one.
Perhaps the Boston College game served as a wake-up call for the big man because his 18 points and 10 boards against Clemson was his seventh double-double on the year and a personal best in terms of offensive production in the ACC.
It was the most points he had scored since he knocked down 16 against Maryland, all of which came in a second half explosion.
When Scott is on, he can go toe-to-toe with some of the best in the ACC. If Leitao has found the light switch he needs to make sure it stays on the rest of the year.
Sammy Zeglinski has the excuse of youth on his side, but after eight straight losses, Virginia fans are tired of hearing it.
Zeglinski is commended for his point guard skills and he does make some spectacular plays. Then again, he also makes plays that make you want to scratch your head.
As a result, his assist-to-turnover ratio is bad...very bad.
For the year, Zeglinski has 73 assists to 59 turnovers. However, in the four previous games leading up to the Boston College debacle, Zeglinski had 7 assists and 14 turnovers.
In a Florida State game where Virginia shot 3-for-22 in the first half, Zeglinski finished with four turnovers and zero assists.
Hard to get your offense going when you're too busy handing lay-ups to the opposition.
Well, since the benching, Zeglinski has 11 assists to eight turnovers in his last three games. All of which, by the way, were against ranked teams and two of them on the road.
It may be a small step for Zeglinski but it is a big leap for Virginia basketball.
Zeglinski must still learn to cut down on his turnovers—he had six assists and six turnovers today—but he showed better decision-making and finally made some shots.
Zeglinski showed some good form, going six-for-six from the floor including three treys.
Virginia, a team that is dead last in the ACC from behind the arc, shot 7-for-15 for the game.
Luck? Maybe, but when you're 2-8 in the ACC you could use some positive mojo coming your way.
In the end, this is just one game.
Maybe Clemson was sleepwalking in the first half and dug themselves too big of a hole to climb out of. It makes sense—I am sure that is what most basketball experts will say.
Overlooking a last-place team is easy, but Clemson went on a 14-0 run in the second half to claim the lead and Virginia did not blink.
The Cavaliers battled them shot for shot and neither side gave in.
Clemson did not lose this game, Virginia won it.
They won it because of the great play of Sylven Landesberg but he never would have been in a situation to win without the help of Zeglinski and Scott.
In fact, five different Cavaliers scored in double figures.
The last time that happened? Virginia won it's ACC opener against Georgia Tech.
Virginia's final chapter has yet to be written even if many have tried to write them off.
Sure Virginia has problems, glaring ones, but they also have played the hardest schedule in the country according to ESPN's ratings.
Virginia has a tough stretch remaining, but there is no game left on their schedule that is unwinnable. Particularly if Scott can be an offensive force and Zeglinski avoid turnovers.
One-game mirage or change we can believe in?
The answer lies with you, Virginia.

Soil organic matter makes up the bulk of terrestrially bound carbon in our biosphere. Those compounds play an important role, not only for soil fertility and agricultural yields but also for controlling the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Climatic change can therefore be slowed down or accelerated according to our management of soil resources. A new study sheds some light on the process.
The remains of dead bacteria have far greater meaning for soils than previously assumed, around 40 percent of microbial biomass is converted to organic soil components, say researchers in a new paper.
It has been assumed that the organic components of the soil were comprised mostly of decomposed plant material which is directly converted to humic substances. In a laboratory experiment and in field testing, researchers have clarified things. Evidently the easily biologically degradable plant material is initially converted to microbial biomass which then provides the source material to soil organic matter.
In a laboratory incubation experiment, the researchers initially labeled model bacteria with the stable isotope 13C and introduced the bacteria to soil deriving from the long-term cultivation experiment "Ewiger Roggenbau" in Halle/Saale.
Following the incubation time of 224 days the fate of the carbon of bacterial origin was determined.
"As a result we found fragments of bacterial cell walls in sizes of up to 500 x 500 nanometres throughout our soil samples. Such fragments have also been observed in other studies, but have never been identified or quantified", sayss Professor Matthias Kästner of the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ).
The accumulation of the bacterial cell wall fragments appears to be supported by peptides and proteins from the liquid interior of the cells, which remain to a greater extent in the soil than other cell components. These materials enable the formation of a film of organic molecules on the mineral components of the soil, on which the carbon from the dead bacteria is accumulated and stabilized.
When the fragments of the bacterial cell walls dry out, they may lose their rubber-like properties and can harden like glass. If the soil subsequently becomes moist again, however, under certain circumstances they cannot be re-wetted – an important prerequisite for their degradation by other bacteria. This would provide the simplest explanation for the stabilisation of theoretically easily degradable carbon compounds in soil.
"This new approach explains many properties of organic soil components which were previously viewed as contradictory", says Kästner. In the late 1990s, Kästner and his team arrived at this idea on the basis of earlier investigations on the degradation of environmental contaminants like anthracene in polluted soils of former gas work sites. In these investigations, isotopic analyses revealed bound carbon residues which have been of bacterial origin.
Following the laboratory experiment, their hypothesis was tested in field research. In summer of 2009 the researchers took soil samples in the forefield of the Damma Glacier in the Swiss Canton Uri. In the course of the last 150 years glacier has retreated by around one kilometer. In its place granite rock remained behind, which was gradually recolonized by living organisms accompanied by soil development. Following the formation of new soil the first plants, such as mosses and grasses, were followed by bushes and, later, also by trees.
In the meantime, the Damma Glacier, on which a broad range of studies is being conducted, has therefore become an important outdoor laboratory not only for climate researchers, but for ecologists as well.
The soil investigated with the samples was between 0 and 120 years old and thus allowed insight into early processes of soil development. Scanning electron microscopic investigations which followed at the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology in Tübingen also indicated that the covering of the soil mineral particles by a film comprised of bacterial cell wall residues had increased with the soil age.
The results of the outdoor investigations therefore confirmed the hypothesis and the laboratory results. This new knowledge was ultimately made possible by recent advances in scanning electron microscopy, which in the meantime enable the identification and evaluation of the soil nano-components.
The predominant share of the plant debris in fertile soil is thus rapidly processed by micro-organisms, e.g. bacteria, leading to more bacteria and, in turn, also to more cell fragments. This then results in more organic material in the soil.
"Even though the greatest part of the organic carbon in the eco-systems is definitively produced primarily by plants, we were able to show that a large part of the organic material is actually comprised of residues of bacteria and fungi. This underscores the importance of bacteria as organisms in all types of soil," summarizes Kästner.
Furthermore, they are important for the global climate: The degradation of these organic material results, in mineralization products and the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2). According to estimates from Great Britain the amount of CO2 escaping annually to the atmosphere due to the degradation of organic material in the soils of England and Wales is in the order of magnitude by which greenhouse gas emissions are annually reduced there. This means that no rigorous progress in climate protection may be accomplished without first protecting the soil.

Kendall-Jackson Grand Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2010
Winemaker Notes
Critical AcclaimAll Vintages
Back in 1974, Jess Jackson saw in the fine vineyards of California's cool coastal regions fruit with a variety of outstanding flavors. What if there was a way to produce from this abundance, a single outstanding "cuvée" that offered both quality and value? The result, first released in 1983, was Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay, a rich, round and flavorful wine, made with hand-crafted methods. That same year, Grand Reserve was introduced, a line of ultra-premium wines that represented the full potential of California's finest vineyards and winemaking.
Today, over 5,000 acres of vineyard in California's coastal regions are farmed by Kendall-Jackson. Four separate wineries house what is possibly the single largest barrel-fermentation project in the world. But perhaps most important, is that Kendall-Jackson remains a family-owned winery.
Home to a diverse array of smaller AVAs with varied microclimates and soil types, Sonoma County has something for nearly every wine lover. Physically twice as large as Napa, the region only produces about half the amount of wine, but what it lacks in quantity it makes up for in both quality and variety. With its laid-back atmosphere and down-to-earth attitude, the wineries of Sonoma are appreciated by wine tourists for their friendliness and approachability. The entire county intends to become a 100% sustainable winegrowing region by 2019.
Grape varieties are carefully selected to reflect the best attributes of their sites—Dry Creek Valley's consistent sunshine is ideal for Zinfandel, while the warm Alexander Valley is responsible for rich, voluptuous Cabernet Sauvignon. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are important throughout the county, most notably in the cooler AVAs of Russian River and Sonoma Valleys, Carneros, and Fort Ross-Seaview. Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot, and Syrah have also found a firm footing here.
A noble variety bestowed with both power and concentration, Cabernet Sauvignon is sometimes referred to as the "king" of red grapes. It can be somewhat unapproachable early in its youth but has the potential to age beautifully, with the ability to last fifty years or more at its best. Small berries and tough skins provide its trademark firm tannic grip, while high acidity helps to keep the wine fresh for decades. Cabernet Sauvignon flourishes in temperate climates like Bordeaux's Medoc region (and in St-Emillion and Pomerol, where it plays a supporting role to Merlot). The top Médoc producers use Cabernet Sauvignon for their wine's backbone, blending it with Merlot and smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and/or Petit Verdot. On its own, Cabernet Sauvignon has enjoyed great success throughout the world, particularly in the Napa Valley, and is responsible for some of the world's most prestigious and sought-after "cult" wines.
In the Glass
High in color, tannin, and extract, Cabernet Sauvignon expresses notes of blackberry, cassis, plum, currant, spice, and tobacco. In Bordeaux and elsewhere in the Old World you'll find the more earthy, tannic side of Cabernet, where it's typically blended to soften tannins and add complexity. In warmer regions like California and Australia, you can typically expect more ripe fruit flavors upfront.
Perfect Pairings
Cabernet Sauvignon is right at home with rich, intense meat dishes—beef, lamb, and venison, in particular—where its opulent fruit and decisive tannins make an equal match to the dense protein of the meat. With a mature Cabernet, opt for tender, slow-cooked meat dishes.
Sommelier Secrets
Despite the modern importance and ubiquity of Cabernet Sauvignon, it is actually a relatively young variety. In 1997, DNA revealed the grape to be a spontaneous crossing of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc which took place in 17th century southwestern France.

Thank you, Eric! I love Antoni Tapies work too. His paintings are so expressive, so full of spirited, personal, calligraphic intensity. His use of limited color is genius. And his assemblages & sculptures are wonderful too. In fact, none of my personal favorites made it to this grid - which makes me smile. He's just done so much incredible work.

House, Senate members urge CMS against cuts to Medicare Advantage
More than half the members of both the House and Senate joined together this week to ask the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services not to cut payments to Medicare Advantage.
Cutting payments would result in "disruption and confusion" among the 17 million seniors and people with disabilities currently enrolled in the Medicare Advantage program, Sens. Mike Crapo (R-ID) and Chuck Schumer (D-NY) wrote in a February 16 letter to CMS Acting Administrator Andy Slavitt. The letter, signed by 61 senators, encouraged Slavitt to ensure that any policy changes "promote stability" and preserve Medicare Advantage options.
More than 300 members of the House of Representatives echoed Crapo and Schumer's concerns in a letter sent to Slavitt on February 17.
Spearheaded by Reps. Brett Guthrie (R-KY) and Patrick Murphy (D-FL), the House letter said the Medicare Advantage program is "a powerful example of how to move away from episodic, fee-for-service toward high quality, value-based care," and asked that its funding also be preserved.
