My sister and her family continue their world travels. They're currently enjoying Greece.

And Isabel has plainly got the hang of this traveling thing.

March Madness, Brought to you by Sister Rose Ann

Xavier, a Jesuit university in Cincinnati, is entering the N.C.A.A. tournament seeded sixth in the West Region with a 24-8 record. But Sister Rose Ann Fleming is a perfect 77-0. Since she became the academic adviser for Xavier athletics in 1985, every men’s basketball player who has played as a senior has left with a diploma.

“Sometimes, she’ll schedule an appointment or an academic meeting right in the middle of practice,” said Xavier Coach Chris Mack, whose team will play Minnesota in the first round on Friday. “I’ll say, ‘Sister, we have practice at 4.’ She’ll say, ‘No, this is important.’ ”

Congrats to the Muskies on their victory today. And for graduating 89% of their players in the last five years.

More San Francisco Goodness: The Sutro Baths in The Lineup

via spotsunknown.com

As a non-native, the Sutro Baths, and the entire history of Ocean Beach is completely fascinating.

Great quote from Spots Unknown, that makes a lot more sense after watching the video:

"Part of me now wants to see the whole movie, but part of me just wants to hold in my memory the jarring assembly of clips below as a unified and complete work in itself."

I've decided I need to expand my vocabulary. I think I know more acronyms than actual words right now.

Ah, 1999… We laughed along with Chandler and Phoebe, invested our surplus Benjamins with Lehman Brothers, danced a national macarena. Those days seem like the distant past now, and in many ways, the first decade of the 21st Century has been quite different from the giddy future we might have projected. In one way, though, the new millennium has delivered: we’ve gotten great fiction, often from unexpected quarters.
