Photos: Steven Fox Wins US Amateur Golf Championship
Galen Nathanson Posted by Galen on 2012-08-19 18:06:14 tags: photo
CHERRY HILLS VILLAGE — Michael Weaver was steady nearly all day, but Steven Fox wasn't going away as the two battled to the last hole Sunday in what turned out to be a 37-hole final at the U.S. Amateur at Cherry Hills Country Club.
Fox, who was seeded 63rd in the 64-man match-play field, trailed by two with two holes to play, then won on the first playoff hole when Weaver faltered down the stretch.
Weaver hit driver on the first playoff hole, and went left and past the No. 1 green. Fox calmly sank his downhill 15-foot birdie putt for the playoff win.
"The whole week seems like a dream to me," Fox said. "This is by far the coolest thing I've done."[insertSlideshowjava xml="http://director.denverpost.com/images.php?album=1537" api="dpmc"]

Surround Yourself With Positive People
Hebert's advice is to always surround yourself with people that will "help to propel you forward in life." A good support system will help you become a better person, Hebert said.
"[It's] people that help you keep things together. You need somebody to pull you up, or somebody to slap you in the head because your ego is too big," said Hebert. "I don't think people understand the need for the human connection in order to be a successful business owner or successful in whatever they do."

Gallery: Solar-Powered Brazilian Ekó House is a Modular Smart Home with...
The 2012 Solar Decathlon Europe has encouraged the competition's 20 participating teams to incorporate high-tech solutions into their solar-powered houses, but that hasn't stopped the team from Brazil from leaning heavily on their home country's traditions as well. Their Ekó House is a solar-powered modular home that takes inspiration from the Tupi-Guarani people, who look to the sun as the most important regulator of life. Using smart automated systems that maximize energy efficiency, comfort and security, the only team from the southern hemisphere to participate in 2012 European Solar Decathlon has also revived their people's custom of communing in large shared spaces that open to the beautiful outdoors.
Constructed out of pre-stressed wood panels, the Ekó House from Brazil has a modular veranda system that not only respects the Brazilian tradition of having both private and open spaces, but also mitigates excess solar gain. Energy is derived from rooftop solar panels and all of the mechanical, hydraulic and HVAC systems are contained in a mechanical closet. Team Brazil has sought at every step to highlight the importance of creating a natural, breathable space that respects the surrounding environment.
This strategy extends beyond the low impact structure to include the home's water and waste management system. On-site constructed wetlands treat the home's grey water, which is limited since there is a waterless, compositing toilet, and the kitchen design optimizes waste management and recycling as much as possible. The team has dismantled the house and are in Madrid, waiting for the judges to gauge their enormous progress.

We are travelling from Canada to Disney in May with our six year old, four year old, and seven month old. Any tips to make our trip easier? I plan to bring a moby-wrap and a lightweight Combi stroller. I was also planning to rent a stroller at Disney for my four year old, if he gets tired. Also, what is this Green Grocer that ppl are talking about? Will they deliver groceries to our house off-Disney? Thanks for any tips and advice.
We use garden grocer and they deliver in the Orlando area. It was very nice not to have to go to the store. http://www.gardengrocer.com/
I'm traveling with a 6.5 year old, nearly 4 year old, and nearly 11 month old in a week. We've done two trips with two young kids. Here's what works for us: *We use a single stroller that reclines and has a good sun shield. I use a ring sling to carry baby. The nearly 4 year old will walk or use the stroller. Baby will get the stroller if needed for naps. Draping the sling over the stroller helps get baby a nap! Our oldest will be expected to walk. He's too heavy for our stroller anyway. *We'll buy some snacks but taking some into the park. Last time, we found that the 6 pack mickey lolypops saved the day. They took a while to eat and were great while waiting ion a longer line. *Baby swap is awesome. You can swap with your husband - and then the older kids can go twice in a row! *Measure kids in their parks shoes before you go. Then subtract an inch and treat that as their height. That way, there will be less disappointment. I have one child a tiny smidge under 40" in her shoes so we'll be measuring just for a couple of the best 40" rides but with the attitude of, "you're probably not tall enough but let's check anyway . . . " *Read about the rides beforehand. Being tall enough doesn't mean your child can handle it. Somethings that sound friendly can be scary. We have an experience with a 3 year old and "It's Tough to Be a Bug," that involved carrying a terrified child out of the attraction three minutes in. *We do breakfast in our room since it's easier with young kids. Cereal bars, juice boxes, and frsh fruit and we're set. It saves us money and saves us a lot of aggravation! *Most say to go back to your room for a break mid-day. In the May heat, this may be a great tip. But when we tried it in May/June, it was worse. The 3 year old wouldn't nap and it dragged out our day. We prefer to go at rope drop and stay until the kids act like they need to leave. Tell the kids you're doing this and they may behave better because they want to stay longer! We leave sometime around the dinner hour doing this. It allows me to get the kids to bed at their normal bedtimes.
I totally agree with this, although I find most on this board like the break mid day. When mine were smaller we used to do rope drop, play all day, have an early (5:00pm) ADR, then back to the resort for swim and bed time.
I'm so glad to hear this! I was starting to second guess myself. We used to do breaks religiously, but for this trip we aren't going to. With the park hours shorter, the twins being older, and having the 8 month old, by the time we get back to the resort, rest, and turn around, the parks will be closed!! I'm compiling a list of "resting/nursing" things (playgrounds, shows, boat rides, etc) and I hope that will help. I'm glad to hear that a no break day is possible! And to the OP: I think one of the most important things is to go at the kids pace. That eliminates so much fighting. Sometimes you just need to ride IASW 5 times in a row to make everyone happy!!
Yes, much easier for us without the break, I would rather keep them on a regular nighttime bed schedule. We have just now started taking afternoon breaks, and then staying later, my boys are 12 and 8. This works for us now, cause I don't mind pushing their bedtime later and they love going for a swim mid day when the pool is not so busy.

I would definitely stay here again. The place was clean and centrally located. The personnel at the front desk were very pleasant. The beds were very comfortable. The morning complimentary breakfast was good.
Very nice place, quiet, friendly and clean. Ian at the front desk was very helpful accomodating my needs at check in. Saw manager on site who asked how my stay was which was nice. Taco Bell in parking lot so we did not have far to walk in the evening for food.
When I first checked in I thought it was going to be a nice stay, I was mistaken. The rooms were completely "out of date" everything was old, especially the bed, worst night of sleepever but the bed was not the worst part. The whole hotel smelled like smoke and the whole night there were people in and out of... More
Check in process was fine as was the room (clean and comfortable). The pool looked like it would melt your eyes if you went in it though and the gym smelt reminiscent of an old mans jock strap. The breakfast options were none too plentiful so although there was breakfast included (plus points) it wasn't that great (minus points). It's... More
The staff are all very nice, and I missed ginger on my last trip. Elevator added just off from the lobby is convenient. Very clean hotel, and close to many restaurants. Hot breakfast has good selections, I had a waffle with sausage. Enjoy! AD
I was traveling a lone with my children and we felt very safe. We stayed a total of 5 nights and did not have any issues at all. The room/hotel was very clean and the staff was very friendly.

This was a very "nice stay." Everything was good cept breakfast but I no longer expect a superb breakfast at any of the comfort Inn's except a select few.

When I got to the desk to check in clerk was on phone with someone she told them to hold on, when she found out I was checking in she went back to phone and told them she would call them back. Don't think it should have happened like that. When I arrived there was maybe one car in the... More
good location, helpful staff, don't ask for a smoking room. these rooms have a strong cigarette smell. just go outside if you need to smoke. other than the smell the room was clean, would stay here again. just not in a smoking room.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 01/28/14 -- Boundary is processing an average of 1.5 trillion application and infrastructure performance metrics per day on behalf of its clients and has computed occasional daily bursts of over 2 trillion metrics. The daily average represents a 400% year-over-year increase driven by the growing needs of customers to deliver high quality application performance, find problems faster and avoid unplanned downtime. The fastest growing segment of data processed by Boundary, with more than 500 billion metrics per day (a 600% growth), comes from Amazon Web Services (AWS) and reflects clients' expanded use of and confidence in the cloud infrastructure for transitioning legacy enterprise applications and building new ones when paired with the unparalleled visibility Boundary provides.
Increased use of Boundary is happening because CIOs are under pressure to provide consistently high uptime for internal and public-facing applications. That puts IT Operations professionals in the position of having to know how applications and infrastructure are performing at all times, and the impact of change to their environments. Modern environments are much more complex than their predecessors, raising the degree of difficulty for IT Operations. So, they send more and more data to Boundary, which ingests, correlates and analyzes performance information on a second-by-second basis, giving IT Operations staff as well as the CIO the confidence they need to expand their use of AWS and similar services.
Ninety-nine percent of the metrics collected by Boundary's service are used to maintain a current baseline for expected business application and network performance, giving its clients strong statistics on normal business service behavior. This level of granularity enables customers to pinpoint and in some cases predict moments of risk that could jeopardize service delivery. Boundary empowers clients with actionable data by delivering the following capabilities:
- On-premise and cloud infrastructure network flow metrics offering insight on the communication latency between services indicating risks to applications. This single source offers organizations the only SaaS solution with per-second resolution and history to help optimize their cloud-based applications.
- Cloud adoption with confidence by helping organizations move to AWS and similar services with the same visibility they would expect to have for their on-premise applications.
- Real-time metrics calculated and streamed to customers including bits/second (in/out), packets/second (in/out), round-trip times, out of order packets/second, re-transmits/second, and more.
- A real-time application topology map showing all the nodes a network traffic routes across an IT infrastructure, updated to accurately reflect the current upstream and downstream impacts.
- SaaS based means that organizations do not need to spend significant resources on scoping, procuring, deploying and maintaining hardware. As a result, clients have visibility on the first day with little to no risk.
"Boundary's real-time network layer topology has allowed us to provide instantaneous operational value for our AWS implementations," says Allen Shacklock, lead cloud architect at Scripps Networks Interactive, owner of brands such as the Food Network, HGTV and the Travel Channel. "The benefit of using a SaaS provider to visualize traffic patterns and identify problem areas quickly allows for teams to proactively solve issues without taking on additional management tasks."
"Managing a system running on AWS that supports 5000 TPS from 20+ million users is not a simple task," says Charles Chan, head of engineering at Wattpad. "Boundary makes it easy by giving us insight into what is going on at the AWS network layer in real-time. Whether it is Nginx, Elasticsearch or Redis, Boundary is able to identify any change in traffic pattern going in or come out of any particular node. If there is anything happening to our system, we are able to isolate the node that is causing the issue almost instantaneously, which means we are able to avoid issues before the majority of our users see them."
"Boundary has become our go-to instrument for seeing into the clouds," says Matt Mankins, CTO at Fast Company. "Boundary helps us sleep soundly. In the middle of a winter snowstorm, we got reports from our monitoring service that our site wasn't responding. Was it the weather? Was it Amazon EC2? Boundary helped us disambiguate and create a narrative from its charts to answer, 'What's going on?' (An intermediate network had a connectivity issue. We can sleep!). I've used Boundary graphs to explain our cloud-based app on more than one occasion. It's a great way to illustrate how our technology stack interacts - both now and historically. People of all technical levels can use the Boundary interface to help tell a story about 'what's going on.'"
"We're 100 percent in the cloud, so we had no way of monitoring the physical network," says Adam D'Amico, director of technical operations at Okta. "Previously, we could see very coarse statistics, but now we have an aggregated view and we can see fine-grained aspects of how the network is functioning. With Boundary, we can now identify specific application service traffic volumes, such as MySQL traffic and overall AWS health, so we can proactively size our cloud instances and handle peak demand."
"We've completely disrupted the legacy IT Operations software model," says Gary Read, CEO and president at Boundary. "To start, we've removed the need and cost of scoping, procuring, deploying and managing hardware that would typically consume countless hours and other valuable resources. We're giving free trials to customers and they're typically seeing millions of metrics and optimizing their applications in the first week. Most of the time spent fixing an application or infrastructure problem is focused on finding the source, and that's exactly where Boundary helps customers."
About Boundary
Boundary allows customers to monitor their entire IT environments from a single point of control and is uniquely designed to deal with challenges stemming from modern, highly distributed applications. Boundary's best-in-class enterprise event management service centralizes and correlates events, alerts and notifications from any source, enabling Ops/DevOps professionals to quickly see the total picture.

Christopher Nolan has a way with actors, and after performing in one of his movies, the thespians tend to come back for more. Just look at his three Batman films, which all feature Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman and Gary Oldman. Bale and Caine also appeared in The Prestige, while Inception stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Tom Hardy and Marion Cotillard all showed up in The Dark Knight Rises. Now, according to The Hollywood Reporter, The Dark Knight Rises star Anne Hathaway is in talks to re-team with the director in his next film, Interstellar.
Little is known about the film, which was originally written by Jonathan Nolan for Steven Spielberg . With Christopher Nolan now in the director's chair, he took his own pass at the script, which is based on the wormhole-based time travel theories of physicist Kip S. Thorne.
The Warner Bros./Paramount Pictures co-production is also circling Matthew McConaughey to star as Cooper, one of the travelers on a ship that will traverse space and time. Interstellar is set to begin filming on Nov. 7, 2014.
The movie is going to film until November of NEXT year?
"isn't going to film until November of NEXT year?"
Hmm seems like he keeps using(recycling) the same actors. Should be interesting.

Well, it's that time of year again here. The last double-digit seeds in the NCAA tournament were knocked out two rounds ago. We've stretched our Giant Killers model to new heights of speculation and drawn as many lessons as we can from the results. There's not a whole lot left to do except to click Save As on our spreadsheets for the last time.
We'd also like to thank you for all your feedback. We are seriously proud of the loyalty of our readers to Giant Killers and of the thoughtfulness of the ideas you have sent to us, both in the comments to our posts and via the GK mailbag. We will incorporate your suggestions over the coming months as we make what almost certainly will be the biggest changes yet to our Giant Killers statistical model.
Of course, we also need to add the final cherry to this edition of the GK sundae: the third annual All-Giant Killers Team. As you might remember, last year we awarded naming rights to this squad to honor two members of the 2004 and 2005 UAB Blazers, the first and, and until VCU this year, only Killers to slay Giants in back-to-back tournaments. In 2004 the Blazers, a No. 9 seed, knocked off Kentucky, a No. 1, then in 2005 they beat LSU in an 11-6 matchup.
Over those two seasons, the Blazers stole the ball on nearly 16 percent of opponent possessions while hardly ever turning the ball over. If you want an example of how they played, check out this video of Ronell Taylor swiping a Kentucky pass and passing it, backward, two-handed and over his head, to his twin brother, Donell. We like to think that's how we throw stats around here at GK Central.
So here's the 2012 Donell and Ronell Taylor All-Giant Killers team:
Bradford Burgess, F, Virginia Commonwealth Rams
In the second round, he had 13 points in a crushing first half against Wichita State, and after the Shockers came all the way back, he drained a huge 3-pointer with 1:33 left in the game to put the Rams on top for good. In the third round, he went 4-for-9 on 3-pointers against Indiana, and his effort inside as well as on the perimeter helped force the Hoosiers to commit 22 turnovers.
He did miss two crucial free throws during an excruciating stretch where Indiana scored the final seven points of the game. But Killers are boom-or-bust, and for the past two years, nobody has played smarter high-risk/high-reward hoops than Burgess has for Shaka Smart.
Kyle O'Quinn, C, Norfolk State Spartans
We could see where Missouri was vulnerable; we wrote that "they don't play the kind of defense that makes Giants safe." What we couldn't predict was that O'Quinn would have the best night of his life against the Tigers. With 26 points (on 10-for-16 shooting) and 14 boards (including five offensive), O'Quinn obliterated Norfolk State's usual disadvantages of not being able to grab enough possessions or make them count. He missed two free throws with 3.8 seconds left, giving Missouri a last-gasp chance to win, but that's just staying true to Killers form.
Walter Offutt, G, Ohio Bobcats
Offutt said he felt terrible that he missed a free throw that would have given Ohio a one-point lead with 25 seconds left against North Carolina, and that he had let his team down. Well, Walter, we know something about deep underdogs, so take it from us: At the end of the Bobcats' game against Michigan, you helped stop Trey Burke on four straight shots, then grabbed a turnover and sank two foul shots to save a 75-70 win. Against South Florida, you nailed all four of the 3-point shots you took, including one that got Ohio off to a key 10-0 run in the second half, and you had six steals.
And against UNC, come on, Ohio wouldn't even have been in that game without your six 3s and 26 points. It's no disgrace that you and your teammates didn't have much gas left in overtime against Carolina. And you played way better than Harrison Barnes.
C.J. McCollum, G, Lehigh Mountain Hawks
It's still tough to explain exactly how Lehigh beat Duke. The Mountain Hawks weren't particularly efficient -- even McCollum, who appeared to completely dominate their huge upset, shot just 9-for-24 from the field. But the one scenario Duke watchers feared -- a sustained offensive funk -- came to life, and the Blue Devils, who appeared stunned by Lehigh's speed as well as its resilience, wound up playing more like a desperate Killer than a dominant Giant.
McCollum shot from inside and outside. He nabbed six rebounds and had six assists (on just 28 shots taken by his teammates). And as Duke was taking 26 3-point shots and making only six, he piled up 30 points, enough to send the Blue Devils home for the summer.
D.J. Cooper, G, Ohio
You might say the Tar Heels figured out how to shut him down; he shot 3-for-20 against UNC, including 1-for-10 from downtown, which is a lot for any Killer to overcome. One reason the Bobcats nearly did: Cooper's harassing defense, which helped limit North Carolina to shooting just 40 percent from the field (and only 31.8 percent from behind the arc). And he was a key to Ohio's upset wins over Michigan and South Florida, shooting a combined 5-for-12 (41.7 percent) on 3s and better than 50 percent (12-23) overall, and adding 12 assists.
