Hi Vicki!
Wow! Those are gorgeous! Mine will be coming to you soon. Do you think Loretta Alcorn would share those fabulous patterns?
What lovelies this post contains, such talented people who have donated to this cause.
Such a glorious post filled with exquisite pretties made with such love. Each and every one is filled with joy and heartfelt kindness. The finished quilts will be a sight to behold filled with much beauty.
Such talent. Very difficult to choose a favorite because each square is stunning.
You're so kind to do this, Vicki!!!!!
Such a beautiful outpouring of love! Love these and how each one is different but certainly all stitched with love. My favorites are those knitted squares they look so soft and comforting. The knitted square pink with the heart, I believe she also knitted a peace sign.....that block would be perfect to base a whole blanket on. The crazy quilt blocks also steal my heart, each so interesting. Now after seeing all these I need to retread the initial post and get busy stitching!
WOW! So many, many, MANY ways to make an interesting and beautiful and heartfelt square! I'm glad this endeavor is going to continue for quite a long time, as I am just beginning a fabric-related venture and will (I hope!) be able to contribute to the Kindness Quilt Project before too long :)
Well done, everyone! Inspiring!
These blocks are absolutely pretty ♥
What a beautiful project you've taken on. How cool that so many squares are coming in from all over the world. I hope all goes well with this project and I'm sure the finished quilt will be amazing and bring much joy to the receiver.

Live Nation Chairman Azoff Resigns
Irving Azoff, the executive chairman of Live Nation Entertainment Inc., has left the concert promotion giant's board and resigned as an executive, the company said Monday.
The 65-year-old music industry veteran is taking with him some of his talent-management business, through which he handles the affairs of the Eagles, Christina Aguilera and other acts, according to people familiar with the matter.
Mr. Azoff's employment contract hadn't been due to expire until mid-2014. Chief Executive Michael Rapino's contract, also due to expire in 2014, was recently renewed for a new five-year term, Live Nation said last week, without mentioning Mr. Azoff.

Port-au-Prince, Haiti, 12 March 2012. (PAHO/WHO) - Haiti's Minister of Public Health and Population, Dr. Florence Guillaume, called on "Friends of Haiti" countries, national and international organizations, and the Haitian private sector to contribute funding for a new "Intensive Activities for Child Health" initiative. The effort, which will be launched on 21 April, seeks to scale up vaccination against measles, rubella, and polio, and provide vitamin A and deworming medication to more than 2.5 million children, from newborns up to age 9.
The appeal came on 12 March during a meeting of the Interagency Coordinating Committee (ICC) on immunization in Haiti, which discussed vaccination coverage in Haiti, funding gaps and a new proposal for improving and strengthening the Regular Vaccination Program (DPEV), maintaining polio elimination, and monitoring the elimination of measles, rubella, and polio.
Dr. Socorro Gross, Assistant Director of the Pan American Health Organization/World Health Organization, praised the efforts of Haiti's Ministry of Public Health and Population to expand vaccination coverage and improve the nutritional status of children.
"It is an opportunity to show that this is possible in Haiti [tnt: please check original for missing text: "demostrar que EN Haití es posible"] and that together we can achieve it" asserted the Assistant Director of PAHO/WHO. Dr. Gross recalled that ten years ago, in 2002 [tnt: please check: first VWA was in June 2003], Haiti hosted the launch of the first Vaccination Week in the Americas and now, in April 2012, the country will once again make history as the venue for the launch of the Tenth Vaccination Week in the Americas, which coincides with the celebration of the first World Immunization Week.
Dr. Gross also pointed out that, thanks to its national commitment, Haiti has made enormous strides in modernizing its Expanded Program on Immunization by introducing new vaccines, strengthening the cold chain, and contributing to the elimination of measles, rubella, congenital rubella syndrome, and polio, all with the goal of reducing child morbidity and mortality in the country.
At the end of the meeting, representatives of various national and international entities conveyed their support and pledged technical and financial assistance for the ministerial initiative.

The first hike during our two-day visit took us to the Zion Canyon Overlook on the southeast side of the park. I don't know this for certain, but it seems like this hike isn't quite as popular as most of the other trails in the main portion of the park. My guess is that many people skip this trail because it's outside of the canyon. However, it really shouldn't be overlooked. The views are absolutely stunning.
The trail begins near the east entrance to the Zion-Mt. Carmel Tunnel. This high desert trail crosses slickrock slabs while passing through stands of pinyon pine, juniper, prickly pear and yucca. Along the way you'll have a birds-eye view of the Pine Creek Narrows, a slot canyon that's popular with canyoneers.
The trail does pass a few long drop-offs, but the most dangerous sections have fencing along the edges. One interesting spot along the way is the bridge you have to cross. It hugs a cliff face, below an overhang, before leading into a fairly large alcove.
This short hike ends with a magnificent view of Pine Creek Canyon and lower Zion Canyon. From this vantage point, more than a thousand feet above the Zion Canyon Floor, you'll have commanding views of Bridge Mountain, The West Temple, Alter of Sacrifice, The Streaked Wall and The Sentinel. Many of the most iconic photos of the park come from this overlook. Unfortunately mine won't be counted among those!
consumed by a fire in the tunnel earlier this summer.
We stayed at the overlook for almost 45 minutes and saw only six other people. I was really surprised, given this was a Saturday morning and the weather was absolutely beautiful. Moreover, the morning hours provide for some of the best photo opportunities.

Numbers 5. Report of Captain G. V. Fox, U. S. agent, of second expedition for the relief of Fort Sumter.
New York, April 19, 1861.
SIR: I sailed from New York in this vessel Tuesday morning, the 10th instant, having dispatched one steam-tug, the Uncle Ben, the evening previous to rendezvous off Charleston. The Yankee, another chartered tug, followed us to the Hook, and I left instructions to send on the Freeborn .
We arrived off Charleston the 12th instant, at 3 a.m., and found only the Harriet Lane. Weather during the whole time a gale. At 7 a.m. the Pawnee arrived, and, according to his orders, Captain Rowan anchored twelve miles east of the light, to await the arrival of the Powhatan. I stood in with the Baltic to execute my orders by offering, in the first place, to carry provisions to Fort Sumter. Nearing the bar it was observed that was had commenced, and, therefore, the peaceful offer of provisions was void.
The Pawnee and Lane immediately anchored close to the bar, notwithstanding the heavy sea, and though neither tugs or Powhatan or Pocahontas had arrived, it was believed a couple of boats of provisions might be got in. The attempt was to be made in the morning, because the heavy sea and absence of the Powhatan's gunboats crippled the night movement. All night and the morning of the 13th instant it blew strong, with a heavy sea. The Baltie stood off and on, looking for the Powhatan, and in running in during the thick weather struck on Rattlesnake Shoal, but soon got off. The heavy sea, and not having the sailors (three hundred) asked for, rendered any attempt from the Baltic absurd. I only felt anxious to get in a few days' provisions to last the fort until the Powhatan's arrival. The Pawnee and Lane were both short of men, and were only intended to afford a base of operations whilst the tugs and three hundred sailors fought their way in.
However, the Powhatan and tugs not coming, Captain Rowan seized an ice schooner and offered her to me, which I accepted, and Lieutenant Hudson, of the Army, several Navy officers, and plenty of volunteers agreed to man the vessel, and go in with me the night of the 13th. The events of that day, so glorious to Major Anderson and his command, are known to you. As I anticipated the guns from Sumter dispersed their naval preparations excepting small guard-boats, so that with the Powhatan a re-enforcement would have been easy. The Government did not anticipate that the fort was so badly constructed as the event has shown.
I learned on the 13th instant that the Powhatan was withdrawn from duty off Charleston on the 7th instant, yet I was permitted to sail on the 9th, the Pawnee on the 9th, and the Pocahontas on the 10th, without intimation that the main portion-the fighting portion-of our expedition was taken away. In justice to itself as well as an acknowledgment of my earnest efforts, I trust the Government has sufficient reasons for putting me in the position they have placed me.
I have the honor to be, your obedient servant,
The Baltic has been chartered for one month.
Honorable SIMON CAMERON,
Secretary of War, Washington.

In the usual fashion of events leading up to the big E3 gaming convention (which is, scarily, fast-approaching) Konami is among the handful of publishers hosting a pre-show to reveal what will likely entail some next-gen game announcements. At the very least we know we'll hear more on Metal Gear Solid 5 and, in particular, who will be voicing Snake in Kojima's next title.
But if you're unable to view the livestream for reasons of school, work, or some other quiet-needs, we're here to liveblog it all for you. Stay tuned for news from Konami's livestreamed event.

Get DVD Talk Feeds
Throughout his career---and increasingly since 1999's Magnolia---director Paul Thomas Anderson's films have been hard to pin down. 2007's striking There Will Be Blood (reviewed on Blu-ray and DVD) depicted a self-absorbed man and his pursuit of petroleum and profit. This man, Daniel Plainview, is resentful of a young pastor's spiritual advances and leads a desolate, pitiful life at the top. Very loosely adapted from Upton Sinclair's Oil!, There Will Be Blood was largely considered one of the finest efforts from a director with no shortage of wins under his belt. His latest, The Master (2012), offers another subversive, layered and polarizing examination of a lonely, tortured soul and his life-unchanging encounters with religion.
This soul belongs to Freddie Quell (Joaquin Phoenix), a troubled veteran of WWII who's having difficulty returning to civilian life. A fiercely unpredictable loner whose only allegiance is alcohol, Quell drifts from job to job with expectedly disastrous results. He awakens one morning in a drunken stupor after stowing away on the yacht of Lancaster Dodd AKA "The Master" (Philip Seymour Hoffman), the charismatic and multi-talented leader of a cult-like group known as "The Cause". After subjecting Quell to the first stage of "Processing" (essentially, a series of probing psychological questions designed to provoke and disarm the recipient), Dodd systematically takes the young man under his wing. But whether he cares to admit it or not, Quell's innate rebelliousness and dependency on alcohol still bubble under the surface.
Just as Oil! supplied inspiration for There Will Be Blood, John Huston's Let There Be Light (included as an extra with this Blu-ray/DVD combo pack) sets the groundwork for Anderson's intense character study. Huston's 1946 documentary showed us WWII veterans suffering from psychoneurotic symptoms including paralysis, fear and hopelessness. The Master reminds us that treatment for such handicaps---whether well-intentioned or not---can't always produce positive results because some people just won't change. Popular opinion even likened "The Cause" to Scientology, though one could arguably substitute a number of religions or support groups with similar results. At its core, The Master is Charlatan vs. Philistine.
Though it's easy to admire The Master at arm's length, this intense character study proved difficult for me to absorb at times. The prickly Quell is a frustrated, unlikable wretch who's just as set in his ways as Daniel Plainview, while Dodd serves as the clever showman whose lust for power and popularity provides an equally weighted counter-balance. Some may find it equal (or superior to) the like-minded There Will Be Blood, but the repellance of Quell and Dodd's relationship didn't work for me as well this time around. What can't be argued is the strength of the performances by Phoenix, Hoffman and Amy Adams (as Dodd's steely wife, Peggy), which add more support for what might be unsteady ground in lesser hands. Paired with a memorable score by Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood and striking cinematography, we're left with a tough nut to crack that's certainly worth several viewings. By then, perhaps I'll be processed.
Not surprisingly, this 1080p transfer of The Master looks perfect for all the right reasons. Largely shot in 65mm, image detail is nicely rendered, the film's slightly bronzed color palette looks great and black levels are solid. The Master isn't always a visually ornate production, at least in terms of background locations and set design...but the artistic compositions and style flourishes really make it stand out. Digital issues, including edge enhancement, noise and DNR don't seem to be an issue at all. Similar to the Blu-ray presentation of There Will Be Blood, this is meticulous treatment of visuals that demands it.
No complaints in the audio department either, though The Master's DTS-HD 5.1 Master Audio doesn't intentionally swing for the fences. It's a dialogue-driven production with occasional punches from Jonny Greenwood's hypnotic, abstract score and sporadic bursts of action...and it that sense, it succeeds in the expected areas. Even the most discerning viewers will seldom wish for more (or less) sonic activity than what's presented here, so this mix is perfectly acceptable for that reason. Optional English (SDH) and French subtitles are included during the main feature and all extras, including the trailer gallery.
"Unguided Message" (8 minutes, SD) briefly takes us behind the scenes, though it doesn't really provide much in the way of context or detail. It's mostly just footage of the cast and crew between shoots and the limited visual quality doesn't help either. A generous assortment of Teasers & Trailers (17 minutes, 1080p) winds down the film-specific extras. The Blu-ray also includes another extra, detailed below.
Last but not least is "Let There Be Light" (58 minutes, SD), John Huston's 1946 documentary about WWII soldiers and their encounters with what we now call "Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder". A disclaimer states that none of the footage was staged in any way, but the soldiers' road to recovery (via hypno-therapy and related techniques) arrives much too quickly to feel consistently believable. Pacing problems aside, Huston's film is still a fascinating slice of history that obviously inspired The Master, so it feels perfectly at home here. Unfortunately, this is a public domain print and not the 2012 National Archives Restoration of Huston's film. This oversight is probably a rights or budget issue, but it's still a missed opportunity.
I didn't connect to The Master on as many levels as originally hoped, though Anderson's excellent There Will Be Blood took several viewings to completely sink in as well. That's not the only similarity here: both focus on tortured souls and religious overtones, while the layered performances of our key players carry more than their own weight. Overall, there's certainly enough depth here to encourage repeat viewings or, at the very least, convince established Anderson fans that he's not treading water. Anchor Bay serves up a capable Blu-ray/DVD combo pack with reference quality video and audio, but the extras are a little disappointing. Recommended, though outsiders should rent this one first.

Students have also interned in distance-learning centers and in teacher-training centers to help teachers integrate technology in their classrooms.
Students can continue on for a master's in Educational Technologies or specialize in another educational field such as literacy, special education, or distance learning.
Students can elect to teach in an elementary school classroom, become an IT specialist within the school system, or focus on distance learning in an adult or college setting.
Teachers with an Educational Technology background play a large role in improving the quality of education in the classroom. They develop curricula, select textbooks and other materials, train teachers, and assess educational programs for quality and adherence to regulations and standards. They also assist in implementing new technology in the classroom.
Often, these teachers are in charge of evaluating how well a school or training program's curriculum, or plan of study, meets students' needs. Based on their research and observations of instructional practice, they recommend improvements. They research teaching methods and techniques and develop procedures to ensure that instructors are implementing the curriculum successfully and meeting program goals. They monitor the introduction of new technology, including the Internet, into a school's curriculum. In addition, they recommend installing educational software, such as interactive books and exercises designed to enhance student literacy and develop math skills.

Jonah's Obedience and the Ninevites' Repentance. 1The word of the LORD came to Jonah a second time: 2Set out for the great city of Nineveh, and announce to it the message that I will tell you. 3So Jonah set out for Nineveh, in accord with the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an awesomely great city; it took three days to walk through it. 4Jonah began his journey through the city, and when he had gone only a single day's walk announcing, "Forty days more and Nineveh shall be overthrown," 5the people of Nineveh believed God; they proclaimed a fast and all of them, great and small,* put on sackcloth.a
6When the news reached the king of Nineveh, he rose from his throne, laid aside his robe, covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes. 7Then he had this proclaimed throughout Nineveh:* "By decree of the king and his nobles, no man or beast, no cattle or sheep, shall taste anything; they shall not eat, nor shall they drink water. 8Man and beast alike must be covered with sackcloth and call loudly to God; they all must turn from their evil way and from the violence of their hands. 9* Who knows? God may again repent and turn from his blazing wrath, so that we will not perish."b 10When God saw by their actions how they turned from their evil way, he repented of the evil he had threatened to do to them; he did not carry it out.
* [3:5] Great and small: the contrast can refer to distinctions of social class (prominent citizens and the poor).
* [3:7–8] Fasting and wearing sackcloth are signs of human repentance; here they are legislated even for the animals—a humorous touch, perhaps anticipating 4:11.
* [3:9–10] Scripture frequently presents the Lord as repenting (or, changing his mind) of the evil that he threatens; e.g., Gn 6:6–7; Jer 18:8.

Remember that big screen at the end of Sony's PlayStation Meeting last week that said the newly unveiled PlayStation 4 would be "coming holiday 2013?" Apparently, that slide might not apply to all three of the major regions for the video game market. Some could see the system slip to next year.
Speaking to Digital Spy, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe's UK managing director Fergal Gara hedged quite a bit when asked if the announced 2013 launch window applied to Europe.
"We will launch it this year," he said. "Exactly what regions, what timing, is being worked through. Which regions in 2013—is it all of them, is it some of them? Is there some degree of phasing? We'll reveal that in more detail later, but we can't yet."
When pressed, Gara said "at least" one region would be getting the system in 2013, but he couldn't confirm whether the system would hit "all or some of [the regions]" this year.
A staggered worldwide hardware release wouldn't exactly be new for Sony. While the PlayStation 3 was released in Japan and North America within a week of each other in November 2006, Europe had to wait until March 23, 2007 to get the system. The PlayStation 2 hit Japan in March of 2000 before hitting North America in October and Europe in November. Japan also got the original PlayStation first, in December 1994, more than nine months before the September 1995 North American and European launches.
Edge previously reported that it has been "told" by unnamed sources that the PS4 will hit the US and Japan by Christmas, before a European rollout in "early 2014."
Microsoft has yet to announce any concrete plans for the successor to the Xbox, but leaked documents and other reports all point to plans for a late 2013 release. That could follow a rumored unveiling at an April event.

Bollywood Journal: 'English Vinglish' Is a Masterclass
By Daniel Ashwin Pillai
"English Vinglish" marks the return of a legend in Indian cinema, Sridevi.
But as much as cinegoers are excited about seeing an actress who has been away from filmdom for more than 14 years, the director of her comeback vehicle, Gauri Shinde, deserves the most applause.
In addition to entertaining, Ms. Shinde's film creates a space for a female actress who is arguably past her prime. It also nods to serious issues related to the migratory experience, specifically the South Asian diaspora.
"English Vinglish" tells the story of Shashi, a middle-class housewife who is mocked by her family for her inability to speak English properly. She fumbles, mispronounces words and is ridiculed by the people closest to her - her husband and two children. When she finds herself in the bustling landscape of New York -- to help plan for her niece's wedding – she tries to master the English language in order to gain confidence, and the respect of her family.
"English Vinglish" is sheer elegance when it comes to filmmaking. The script is tight, the performances are flawless (Sridevi certainly delivers), the emotions are real and the story is simple. Despite this simplicity, the story is universal, appealing to more than just the Indian viewer.
Let's get to the obvious and, up to its release, the most talked about feature of the movie – Sridevi's return. Having a woman at 49 making a comeback to the silver screen is proof that Indian audiences have matured. There has been much hoopla about Indian cinema being a male-dominated industry, but Sridevi and Ms. Shinde go against that theory.
Indian filmmakers today are more willing to focus on the journey and experiences of a female protagonist. Whether a film makes money at the box office or not – a good one stands out. The filmmakers should be applauded as they are the ones taking the unconventional route.
We are now familiar with Bollywood films being shot in exotic international locations. In "English Vinglish," rather than just having New York as a backdrop, Ms. Shinde makes it part of Shashi's experiences. New York - its lifestyle, its complexities and its beauty all become part of the story. Through this, Ms. Shinde acknowledges the migratory experience for people all across the world. Sure, Shashi is just visiting America for a few weeks, but her experience mimics that of many new immigrants -- to North America in particular -- and their daily struggles to fit in, communicate in English and live without fear and insecurity.
Ms. Shinde shows a deep understanding of Shashi's emotions and how she functions in the larger picture of linguistic challenges, cultural differences and the journey to confidence.
It's hard to feel disdain or anger toward the characters that make Shashi feel incompetent. Ms. Shinde doesn't demonize them; instead, she focuses on the nature of human relationships and the realistic interactions between a woman and her husband, and between a mother and her children. She lets the experience of cultural differences and boundaries speak for themselves. Viewers will identify with the familial and cultural challenges in "English Vinglish."
The film made me question my own actions: Did I ever contribute to the negative experiences of someone new to my city… someone who needed help? And aside from actions affecting a stranger, I know that my sister and I have taunted my mother in many ways when she made errors while speaking English. Of course, it was all done in jest and my mother also laughed and shared in the joke – but the experience is universal and this is where "English Vinglish" excels.
Ms. Shinde's direction shines right from the first reel. She starts the story in a very simple manner and never complicates her narrative. Instead, she relies on the complexities of human life to bring together characters, situations and locales, without ever making a situation, dialogue or emotion seem forced or unbelievable.
"English Vinglish" is more than just an English lesson – it opens our eyes and our hearts to characters like Sridevi's Shashi.

Railroad will restore locomotive 7706 from retired Cromby Generating Station
KENNETT SQUARE, PA - Exelon Power has donated a locomotive from the company's retired Cromby Generating Station to the West Chester Railroad, a non-profit organization which preserves and operates vintage trains in Chester County, a suburb of Philadelphia. The railroad plans to restore the locomotive, number 7706, and use it to supplement their existing fleet.
Locomotive 7706, a GP38 model with a 16 cylinder, 2000 horsepower diesel engine, was built in 1969 and purchased in the mid-1990s for use at Cromby Station. A two-unit power plant in Phoenixville, Chester County, Cromby Station retired at the end of 2011 after 57 years of generating electricity. At Cromby, the locomotive was used to pull railcars of coal across the Schuylkill River to the power plant where the coal was used as fuel to generate electricity. On average, every week the locomotive would pull between 75 to 100 railcars, each filled with 100 tons of coal.
"Locomotive 7706 did a lot of hard work at Cromby Station and we're happy to see it get a new lease on life with the West Chester Railroad," said Bill Swahl, director of Performance Operations for Exelon Power. Swahl was general manager of Cromby Station from 2008 to the plant's retirement in 2011.
After several weeks of preparation and transport, the locomotive arrived at the West Chester Railroad's yard just before Thanksgiving. The estimated value of locomotive 7706 is $140,000. "We're very appreciative to Exelon for this donation and we're so excited to restore this locomotive," said Derek Slifer, director of Passenger Operations for the West Chester Railroad. The railroad expects their restoration efforts to take two years, with a majority of their work focused on restoring the exterior. "Since the locomotive was in use and needed to run nearly every day, it still runs really well," added Slifer.
"The railroad provides a unique service to Chester County, helping residents and visitors appreciate the beauty and history of the county," said Swahl. "Cromby Station and its employees were very active in the community and giving back is very important to Exelon and something we take a lot of pride in."

"When I got it that Christmas I was like, 'What!? What are you doing? This is no fun!'."
The 'most wonderful time of the year' has certainly become daunting. You're forced to endure rubbish Christmas adverts for the better part of three months. You're constantly being harangued at every corner to buy, buy, buy the perfect gift and have to suffer through the consumer feeding frenzy formerly known as the yuletide spirit to do so. By the end, all you have to show for it is a pile of unwanted gifts, credit card debt, a battered liver and a serious case of heartburn. It's enough to give even the most hardened of merry makers a major bout of depression.
Thankfully, Iceland's Múm are here to help with a healthy dose of dreamy, electronic folk soundscapes just ripe for escaping holiday hell. With the departure of long-time vocalist Kristín Anna Valtýsdóttir in 2006, their latest long player, Go Go Smear the Poison Ivy, finds the band heading towards a more lively direction with a fresh roster of vocalists and support players. DiS recently sat down with band co-founder Gunnar Örn Tynes before their London Scala gig to get his thoughts on the holidays and, more importantly, the music.
Since it's nearly Christmas, what's your favourite part of the holiday season?
Ah, good food and mandatory relaxation.
How do you relax at Christmas?
You know, the usual. You eat a lot, sleep late, don't do anything…
Watch stupid movies?
…watch stupid movies. You know you meet friends, you kind of… because it's Christmas there's nothing really else to do. Whatever you're celebrating, it's kind of the time where you're dedicating your time to hedonism, basically, and I like that, especially with Iceland. We don't see it so much when we're travelling around, when we go to Spain or Italy or anywhere that is different or the opposite of Iceland. You can see how people spend so much time enjoying life and in Iceland it's nothing like that. It's just like, "Be happy with what you got". There's this feeling in society that's about not wasting, you shouldn't take too long breaks and you should work hard.
So Christmas is the one time you really let loose then?
What are you hoping to find underneath your tree on Christmas morning? Anything special?
(laughs) No, not really. I'm extremely un-materialistic so I… you know, I don't collect anything or really own anything. So something homemade is always the way to touch my heart. You know, small and simple and personal, I think that's the favourite. I usually try to give myself the Christmas presents I really want.
What was the worst present you ever received?
I remember when I was like 10 or 11, my parents gave me a comforter, you know, like a blanket, made from down. It's really good, I still have it and it's my favourite but when I got it that Christmas I was like, "What!? What are you doing? This is no fun". But then a couple of months later I realised how good of a present it was. Seeing it though, and opening it, that was a big let down. Of course, I'm properly raised, so I didn't cry or kick or anything. I was maybe a bit quiet at Christmas but I really appreciate it still.
What do you like doing for New Years?
I really relate to New Years. I enjoy Christmas but I get much more sentimental at New Years, it affects me much more. I'm not Christian; I'm not celebrating Christmas for religious reasons. Even if I believe in Jesus and believe he was a cool guy. I'm not going by the book on that. New Years is something that really matters to me. I think spending it with close friends is very important. I get very sentimental, New Years is my favourite.
Looking back on the year that was for Múm, is there anything you would change if you had the chance or are you happy with the band, the new record and everything that happened?
I wouldn't change a thing. I've very happy about everything. It's, of course, always a bit scary having to change or… not really having to change, but when change happens, embracing the change, adapting and realising that you have to do something different. It can be scary and it usually is a bit. But I wouldn't have changed anything. It turned out beautifully. It's been the best tour I've ever been on and it's so much fun. It's a really nice group of people. It's strong. People are really challenging each other.
You've been a band though for roughly ten years now?
You and your writing partner Örvar (Þóreyjarson Smárason) have seen the band in that time grow from just the two of you to include the twins, and then you shrank again, and now you've once again expanded…
That's not entirely true. There is a bit of a misunderstanding there. Our trumpet player, for example, played with us before the twins even came into the band. But he's gradually been getting a bigger role, not because we gave it to him, because it's in his feeling for… I don't know, we don't really set the rules. We kind of invite people to take part.

- - -
So you're not just one core unit with support players?
No, exactly. When we work with people or when we work together, everybody has freedom to do anything, but people are not necessarily used to that way of working. They're used to, "I play a trumpet and you maybe tell me what to play and blah, blah, blah…". Which we obviously do some of the time but we obviously want to get the most out of people and work with them. We don't want to use people playing something that you can arrange with computers. Of course we do that as well, but the people are creatively working with us. We want everybody to feel that their input is valuable and that it can be tiny or huge. I think that is very important for creative collaboration. That's kind of something that has flowered or grown over the years and I think with this album that it's more than ever. People feel like they can contribute, and they are.
Do you still find creating music to be a rewarding act for you personally, or has it now become more of a job?
No, it's totally a hobby or, you know, it's the love of my life. In no way do I sense it as a job. Maybe when you're touring and you're stuck on this schedule that you can't go out of. But even that doesn't feel like a job in any way. It is hard work, even if people think it's all fun. But it's great. I love it.
With all the ups and downs over the years, have you ever had a moment when you wanted to give it up and pursue an entirely different kind of work?
No, not an entirely different kind of work. Not at all. I do a lot of recording and production as well. I mean, since discovering music at the age of 13 or younger, creatively speaking, I wouldn't go anywhere else. When you find your true love, it's your true love. I want to keep doing this until I die.
Previous records have found you recording in distant places, like an isolated lighthouse for example. Is isolation a key part of your work?
It helps. It definitely helps, but I don't think it's the isolation we're seeking. I think it's more the changing environment. Going somewhere kind of changes your perception. You perceive everything more fresh, somehow. You see things differently. You notice things that you didn't notice before. And you think about it. It's very strange how moving your physical place can change your perspective on music. But also it's because we tend to go for special places, different, or as you said isolated and in nature. Isolation can help with focus though but as I said isolation can help give you a different perspective. And I think we've been rebelling against the traditional way of making an album for such a long time.
Why have you been rebelling?
Because it can be… like I said, I do a lot of recording and production and what I try to do when I work with people is make them feel really comfortable and free. When you go into a studio so many times, there is a guy there from the studio even if you're working on your own. You know it costs so much per hour and there's a room where you record vocals and… it becomes kind of overwhelming. A lot of the times people become really self conscious and they're not free to do what they want or should or what they're supposed to. They don't flow where they're flowing…
It blocks them?
Yeah, it can. What I try to do more than anything is to tell people to take their time, to have that relaxed atmosphere. I explain to people that going to a studio is a creative process and it has been, it has that stigma… maybe because of how expensive it is, that it's something where you go to the studio, do the album and then you move on or release it. We don't like doing that. We like spending a lot of time. Sometimes our music is, you know… it is born and then it changes so much until it is finished. Sometimes it changes too much maybe and you realise afterwards but we try and sense when it should stop.
With so many new people on it, the sound of the latest record feels more open and upfront, far less dreamy than past work. Was that something you planned from the outset, or did it just happen over time?
I think there are many reasons why. I don't think it's necessarily what we planned for but it is… yeah, it's something. As a song person, I'm much fonder of character in songs, for albums to have a distinctive character, rather then just sounding good. I'm not a big fan of quality songs, what I call the 'Norah Jones songs'. Those ones where technology is utilised to the maximum, where everything is super clear and you can hear everything. I think it's okay for people to listen to something and think, "Whoa, this sounds strange". That's totally acceptable. If you go and listen to any old hits, Phil Spector production or anything. It always sounds really special. You can hear the voices, you can hear the drums but you can't hear everything clearly. It has a very bold character and I like that.

Was the new album easy or difficult to record?
It was very easy. It came very naturally and it was very fun. I mean, creative collaboration is a hard thing, you know. It can be tedious… not tedious, but it can take a lot out of you. But that's natural and it's a part of a game, it gives the dynamics and you know, some people being really sure of what they want. But in the end it's so easy to take decisions because you sense when something is right. You can't argue with that. You can have your ideas and you think this is going to be this or that, but when you hear something, you know if it is right or wrong. It's as simple as that. For example our first album was called Yesterday was Dramatic - Today is Okay and that's kind of a reference to this kind of creative collaboration. People can't always be in unison but it always ends up this way. You can kind of feel like, "Oh, there is this drama", but then you realise that "Oh, everybody was right" or something. But this album, like I was hinting towards, it's very natural and by now we know it. It never becomes…we never fight or anything, but there is this tension and that is supposed to be there. But this album was very expressive and everyone was juggling ideas. It was very fun and it came easy in a way. It was a bit hard finishing it, mainly the sound because we recorded it in so many places and we had like 130 channels.
It's well noted that there are lots of bands in Iceland. Do you feel close to them or do you have a closer affinity to like-minded bands from abroad who have the same desire to explore sounds in the way that you do?
I feel a lot of connection to Icelandic people just because there is this ridiculous support and amicable situation where everybody is like helping each other, lending amps and mics. There is a very beautiful harmony somehow. I can't explain it but in that way I feel very similar. But my favourite… like for two years now I've been fascinated by music that isn't made for this whole silly industry. I don't like how so many times you've heard about some bands and then you hear it and it's like "Huh?". There is nothing or it's just pretentious crap. Then again, I haven't had this experience with any indigenous music, if I can use that word. I love getting to know music from Tahiti or…
Africa is such a great source because you have all these countries…
People like Konono No.1?
Yeah, but even more like, more localised…
More rural?
Yeah, yeah, exactly, traditional folk. And not necessarily folk, people like Django Reinhardt or music that is somehow… I can't explain it but it's music somehow made for people. There's some sort of shorter connection. It isn't produced as a commodity. It's just one heart speaking to another heart.
You're frequently asked in interviews to explain why Iceland, for being such a small country, has so many bands. Does it ever get exhausting having to act like a member of the tourist board?
It's not exhausting to talk about it. It is exhausting to get questions that you can't answer. I can say how it is, but why… it's really hard. I think a great part of it in Iceland is that I think people are so influencing each other and it's so hard to explain that somehow. I don't want to be like promoting Iceland but I can't denounce it either. I can't talk bad about it just because I've been asked to talk good about it.
How do you relax when you're not in the band?
Differently. For me, for example, I think my greatest relaxation is watching something. I enjoy watching things. Films, shows, funny stuff… I watch a lot of films. I haven't had a TV for five years because I don't like the idea of being fed but I love feeding myself. I love what I do and I keep on doing it. So a good way for me to relax is to lose myself in a hypothetical world where I have no say in anything.
One last question, is there anything you would like to tell the world before the arrival of 2008?
It's a big one.
That's a big one…it's… (laughs)
Merry Christmas?
Yeah, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Maybe, you know. Let's do better and better. There's so much to say. People are doing so much wrong. Do right.
Múm's latest single, 'Marmalade Fires', is out now on Fat Cat along with their latest Go Go Smear The Poison Ivy LP. Find them on MySpace here.

Cost of Attendance
Cost of Attendance (COA) is a figure calculated annually by financial aid offices that represents an estimate of the total cost (including tuition, fees, books & supplies, room & board, transportation, and misc. personal expenses) for a full-time student to attend their university during the academic year.
Separate COA figures are determined for students living On-Campus, Off-Campus, and With Parents. The COA can help families budget for all the expenses to attend college. It is important to note that only a portion of the total COA is paid directly to the University. Additionally, the COA is a standardized estimate, and may be adjusted for students on a case-by-case basis with proper documentation (refer to Cost of Attendance (COA) Adjustment Form.)
The cost of attendance is an important factor in determining student financial aid eligibility. The Expected Family Contribution (EFC), which is calculated from the FAFSA data by the federal processor, represents the amount the student and his or her family are expected to contribute to the COA. The EFC is subtracted from the COA to determine the student's financial Need. Financial aid is then awarded to help offset the student's COA.
If the financial aid is not enough to cover the Need, then the remaining amount is considered Unmet Need. It is important to note that a student is not required to have financial Need to be eligible to receive Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loans, PLUS loans, or merit-based scholarships.

Silvia, it is with so much kitten charm that you look into the world, sure it can only hold positive surprises or you.
I know very well how wonderful such a self-heating neck scarf works- my Filou was one- whether it was minus 10 C or plus 30 C But who could resist those velvety paws.
Congratulations, sweet little princess- and don't eat too much fudge today, but I suppose a tiny but is in order for celebration

Casey Anthony Spotted Shopping and Relaxing in Ohio
Ever since Casey Anthony was acquitted of killing her young daughter and released from a Florida prison several weeks ago, her whereabouts have been kept secret to ensure her safety from members of the public angry about the verdict.
Now she's been spotted in Ohio, where she reportedly has relatives.
Photographs and video depict Anthony in an Ohio State baseball cap, sunglasses and jeans as she shops at an Old Navy and sips coffee from a Starbucks cup.
Her attorneys have been fighting an order for her to appear in a Florida court for a probation hearing stemming from a check fraud conviction before her murder trial, saying a return to the Sunshine State could put her in "great peril" and burden taxpayers with hefty security expenses.
Amid accusations of bias, the judge who ordered her return stepped down from the case on Wednesday. It will now be handled by Judge Belvin Perry, who presided over her murder trial.

The other day my youngest son brought his art portfolio home from school. I'd pull out a drawing, he'd tell me a little about his masterpiece, and I'd compliment what I loved most about it. Then I came to this drawing:
I looked at him.
"That's me," he said.
"That's … you?" I asked.
"Yeah. We had to draw ourselves."
It's a typical 3rd grader self portrait in many ways, except I couldn't help but notice that the crayon he chose for his skin color is many shades darker than his actual real life skin color. Our youngest son is fair skinned like me, but this drawing showed him to be darker like his father.
I decided not to ask questions and moved onto the next drawing. I didn't want to make a big deal over it and make him self conscious. Maybe it's not an identity crisis. Maybe he's just not self-aware? I thought to myself. Maybe somebody else was using the lighter crayon and he wasn't patient so he used whatever color was available.
I had tried to forget about the self portrait but then this weekend I found him in the backyard like this:
I asked what he was up to and he said, "I'm trying to tan." — He explained that he wanted to be more like his brother's color, (which is not as dark as his father, but almost.)
I'm wondering if this is just a natural part of growing up in a bicultural family where your mother and father are two different shades? Maybe it's just a normal distancing of himself from me that comes from age – maybe he wants to identify as a male with his older brother and father?
I'm not really sure what to do, if anything – except to tell him he's perfect the way he is. What would you do?

OSHA finds Energy Department contractor retaliated in terminating her.
An environmental safety specialist who had been fired in 2011 by an Energy Department contractor was ordered reinistated on Tuesday after the Labor Department determined that the employer retaliated against her for raising concerns about atomic waste disposal procedures at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation in Washington state.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration's assistant regional manager determined that the Richland, Wash.-based Washington River Protection Solutions, owned by URS, must pay more than $220,000 in back wages and other expenses.
Though Labor did not release the employee's name, whistleblower advocacy groups and the office of Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., released the OSHA letter identifying her as Shelly Doss, a 20-year veteran of the contract workforce at Hanford.
The World War II-era decommissioned nuclear processing plant on the Columbia River has been the setting for other whistleblower complaints that have been the subject of congressional hearings.
According to the OSHA letter, Doss "repeatedly reported nuclear and environmental safety and permit and record-keeping violations." But soon she was relieved of virtually all her work assignments. and the employer advertised the position as vacant, refusing "to rehire the employee despite adequate qualifications and previous satisfactory performance reviews." In October 2011, after she continued to report environmental noncompliance as required by her job, she was terminated, and filed a whistleblower complaint with the Labor Department.
Doss suffered emotional damage from "harassment," according to her attorney, Tom Carpenter of the nonprofit Hanford Challenge. He said Doss in 2012 filed an amended complaint after the company entered into a mediated settlement agreement and reinstated her with promises to support her in her new position, provide training, and not retaliate any further. But OSHA this month found that "the layoff was actually a firing," and that "there is sufficient evidence to show Doss was blacklisted."
"The people most able to identify hazards are often the workers who are threatened by them," said Galen Lemke, OSHA's acting regional administrator. "Employees must never be punished for sounding an alarm when they see a problem that could injure, sicken or kill someone, or harm the environment."
Wyden told Government Executive he is pleased with Labor's decision to reinstate Doss. "However, I remain very concerned that the Labor Department's investigation in her case confirms that the Energy Department must correct systemic problems with the safety culture and retaliation against whistleblowers at Hanford," he said. "It is time for Shelly to get back to work and for DOE to ensure Hanford workers can share threats to public safety without threat of reprisal."
A spokesman for Washington River Protection Solutions said the firm is currently reviewing the department's order, which it received Tuesday, and that no decision has been made on whether to request, within 30 days, a hearing before an administrative law judge.
"The employee was one of more than 200 employees who were laid off by the company in the fall of 2011 to align its employment levels with project work scope and federal funding,"
External Affairs Manager Jerry Holloway said. "The employee's raising of safety or environmental questions was not a factor in the selection for lay-off. Washington River Protection Solutions is committed to conducting its work at Hanford safely and in compliance with applicable requirements. Each WRPS employee is empowered and encouraged to raise safety or other workplace concerns."
Carpenter said Doss "properly reported and documented numerous environmental violations in a professional manner, and suggested ways to resolve those issues. Instead of praising her, WRPS management vilified her, ruined her career, and illegally fired her from her position. For the Employee Concerns Manager to participate in this behavior shows how out of touch with the law this company truly is when it comes to safety and ethics."
In addition to paying Doss' back salary, damages, interest and attorney's fees, the company must delete disciplinary information from her personnel file. And it must display posters on the worksite reminding employees of whistleblower protection and "Your Rights Under the Energy Reorganization Act."

I went shopping yesterday and left my phone at home. It was intentional, just to check myself and make sure it didn't bother me, and it didn't.
I spent years addicted to my phone.
The day I deactivated my Facebook accounts was the day they congratulated me for spending six years with them. They sent a notification, and I was mortified. Six years, and what did I have to show for it?
Thank you for all of your kind comments on my Blog posts recently. They absolutely terrify me.
It takes time for me to respond, because I still overthink the response. I don't have the WordPress app on my phone, so I don't receive immediate notification. I let notifications run my life for years.
The past couple of weeks, I've been sharing things with you that took a long time to admit. It may look like Blogging tips, but for me it was painful lessons.
It's not even about me, it's about the lessons, and being used by God to prevent someone else from going through the same heartache. It's by God's grace that I'm able to sit here and share. Palms sweaty and hands shaking along the keyboard.
I don't realize all the activity on my Blog without the app. Two or three times a day, I open my laptop, logon to this site, and see that you have visited.
I read the Blogs in my Reader, and love on others. It's natural to give love, and leave comments on what you write, but I stare at the screen in awe when that same love and kindness is returned.
Sometimes I don't know what to say, so I just 'like' the comment, and come back later to respond. I don't know how people do it that have 100's of comments a day. I would be so overwhelmed.
I enjoy living a calm, quiet life, but to live that way, I turn off all notifications, and my phone is usually in another room of the house. I'm not quite ready to tell you exactly how bad it got with 6 social media accounts giving me a feeling of importance.
Wow. That slipped out.
I don't run my Blog in the normal way, because if I did, it would begin to run me. Thank you for your love and kindness, and taking time to comment.
It's becoming less terrifying with every response, and you are giving me practice.

Another snowy week struck the CAA schedule. This is not a bold prediction but I guarantee we're going to get games in the conference tournament that are the caliber of George Mason's 82-77 overtime win over VCU on Tuesday night. Anyone who caught that game on ESPNU saw a real treat. Despite the snow, Hofstra drew a modest 893 in their game against Drexel Wednesday night. CAA Rookie and co-Player of the Week Drexel's Chris Fouch left with an injury. Will he miss the rest of the season? Towson postponed its Wednesday night game to Thursday afternoon and gave interim-coach Brooks Lee his first career win as coach of UNC Wilmington. Meanwhile, James Madison walk-on redshirt freshman Ryan Knight was arrested for allegedly throwing snowballs at vehicles that were described as "missiles." Meanwhile Old Dominion turned in another 20-win season, their fifth in the last six years. Unless there is more snow, the entire league will play on Tuesday night before heading into their weekend BracketBuster matchups in an effort to boost the league RPI.
Important Games This Week
Tuesday 2/16
Drexel @ VCU (7pm TCN). VCU has a chance to build some momentum on a three-game homestand starting tonight against Drexel after playing themselves out of the race this week. Drexel, meanwhile, can play themselves further in to gaining a first-round bye with a win but will have to do it without talented redshirt freshman Chris Fouch.
William & Mary @ George Mason (7pm MASN). The Patriots will be without Mike Morrison due to a suspension from Saturday's game. The Patriot Center is a tough home atmosphere and erupted in their ESPNU win over VCU. It will be interesting to see if the Tribe can come out and get another signature road win.
Team Reviews
Northeastern (12-3)
Last week's co-Player of the Week Matt Janning scored 29 points this past week on 10-23 shooting (43%) but the Huskies struggled in a road loss at William & Mary on Saturday. Janning had one of his worst road performances of the year, scoring eight points and going 0-5 from long range in a one-point loss. A team with Nkem Ojougbouh and Manny Adako in the frontcourt was outrebounded in both of their games this week. Grabbing open boards has been a problem this year as the Huskies rank 10th in the CAA in rebounding margin and last in offensive rebounds. The three-point shot was off this week as well, as the top CAA three-point shooting team shot just 13-40 (33%) this week. The conference schedule will continue to have winnable games at UNC Wilmington and a home game against Hofstra sandwiched between a BracketBuster against Louisiana Tech.
Old Dominion (12-3)
Despite the snow, the Monarchs crushed the Dukes on the road by 20. Gerald Lee is making his play for first team CAA, scoring 34 points on 12-24 (50%) shooting this week. A sold out Constant Convocation Center saw the Monarchs disrupt the Patriots in a 16-point win where Mason player Mike Morrison get ejected. The Monarchs improved this week from behind the arc. Junior Ben Finney turned in a 19-point, seven assist and seven rebound game. Currently the team ninth in the CAA in three-point field goal percentage shot 15-37 (41%). The one weakness that might be exploited, especially in the road BracketBuster game at Northern Iowa, is their 10th ranked free throw percentage of 65%. A home game against Towson should ensure some momentum going into the week and a road game at Georgia State will be their last conference road test before the conference tournament. A tiebreaker holds the Monarchs in second, as they lost their only game to Northeastern, but they still have a good chance to lock up the top seed.
George Mason (11-4)
Mike Morrison might not have the prettiest shooting stroke, but his basket with 2:46 left tied the game as the Patriot Center exploded in their 82-77 ESPNU televised win over VCU. The Patriots had not won at Old Dominion since 2004 and lost more than that on Saturday when the same Morrison drew two technical fouls and an ejection for yelling at officials. He drew a mandatory one-game suspension and George Mason added on another game so Morrison will be out the whole week for the Patriots. It will be interesting to see if they can keep in the race without him against William & Mary Tuesday night. George Mason has lost its last three road games, two of them by double digits to Drexel and Old Dominion.
William & Mary (10-5)
Kendrix Brown's jumper with seven seconds left gave the Tribe a 53-52 win over Northeastern. David Schenider has struggled shooting, just 18-73 (25%) since mid-January. Despite that, the Tribe still ranks second in the conference in three-point field goal percentage (36%). One underlying problem that has plagued William & Mary has been turnovers. The Tribe turned over the ball 34 times last week, their highest in a two-game week since the first week of the season. While they had a great performance, making seven threes in a win over Delaware, the Tribe have continued to struggle this month shooting 24-89 (27%) from behind the arc. They will have a chance to carry that momentum to Fairfax against the Patriots and then into a road BracketBuster matchup in New Rochelle against the MAAC's Iona Gaels.
Drexel (10-5)
Redshirt Freshman Chris Fouch returned to his native New York but hurt his left shoulder in the Wednesday night loss at Hofstra. Head coach Bruiser Flint said Fouch's injury might be a season-ender but he will try to rehab and make it back for the CAA Tournament. Three of the Dragons' final four games are on the road and we'll see if the Dragons can keep up their third best defense in the league, holding teams to 39% FG, which they did in a 68-60 win Sunday over Delaware. Jamie Harris scored 16 of his team-high 21 points in the first half to lead the Dragons without Fouch. Look for Harris to step up Tuesday night at VCU, as it will be crucial to their remaining hopes for a first round bye in the conference tournament.
VCU head coach Shaka Smart got his first name in memory of a 19th-century Zulu king who united southern Africa. However, his leadership will be tested this week in the wake of two tough losses. Joey Rodriguez did all he could on Tuesday night, turning in a career high 24 points, but George Mason dealt them an emotional 82-77 overtime loss. In the loss VCU blew another double-digit lead on the road: this time it was as high as 15. VCU ranks third in three point field goal percentage but failed to convert Saturday night at James Madison, making a season-low three from distance in a 76-71 loss. The Rams host the tough Drexel defense on Tuesday before hosting Akron in a BracketBuster game.
Hofstra (7-8)
As they currently stand, Hofstra can do no worse than their current seed since they hold a three-game lead and every head-to-head tiebreaker over the teams behind them. They are probably locked into the #6 seed since they cannot break a tiebreaker with VCU, who they lost to by 13 at home in their only meeting. There was at least a foot of snow but the show went on at the Mack Sports Arena in a big win over Drexel Wendesday. Junior Charles Jenkins, still working on his argument for Player of the Year, poured in 32 points and fellow junior Greg Washington set Hofstra's all-time record for career blocks. Senior Cornelius Vines scored a career-high 24 points and tied a school record seven three pointers in a 17-point road win at UNC Wilmington. Jenkins nabbed co-Player of the Week honors and Chaz Williams, who could now be the favorite with Chris Fouch out, won Rookie of the Week. The Pride have a chance to build some momentum in conference at Delaware before hosting the disappointing Rider Broncs in their BracketBuster game.
James Madison (4-11)
Denzel Bowles led the Dukes this week with a team high 29 points and 13 rebounds but the Dukes fell in a makeup game loss at Towson by 4 on Monday. The school was closed but James Madison played the game Wednesday night: it didn't help as Old Dominion crushed the Dukes at home. The Dukes made a season-low one three-pointer and shot 8% from behind the arc in a 20-point loss. The Dukes went on a 19-2 run early in the second half and Bowles tried to power his Dukes over VCU but fouled out with 7:56 to go. However the Dukes only committed three second half turnovers and held on to win at home by five. The win snapped a four game losing streak. This is one of the two best wins for JMU this year, with VCU (#66 RPI) and a home win over William & Mary (#51).
Georgia State (4-11)
The Panthers have won three games in 2010 and failed to win their second road game of the season, falling at Northeastern and at cellar dwellar Towson in overtime. What let down the Panthers this past week? Georgia State's defense, which has held teams to 42% from the field and is sixth in conference, let both teams shoot a combined 49% (47-95) despite outrebounding both in each loss. A home game against James Madison is winnable as the bottom five scramble for positioning in the conference tournament.
UNC Wilmington (4-11)
Interim head coach Brooks Lee won his first game after an extra day delay due to snow. The Seahawks have been plagued by all their shortcomings this year. They rank third in free throws attempted at 555 but are the worst in the CAA at 64%. They haven't been able to generate turnovers, ranking in the bottom of the conference in steals and assist to turnover ratio. Chad Tomko, with two sprained ankles, came out and scored a season high 22 at Towson to get Lee his first win as interim coach. The 17-point loss to Hofstra was a failure to hold the Pride on defense. One bright light to take into next year is the play of Ahmad Grant. Grant scored a career-high 23 points and 48 points on the week on 16-37 (43%) shooting. Grant has improved to where Lee said, "When he gets into the lane off the dribble, his arms are so long and he has a very good vertical, he can jump up and get his shot off over guys. Now that he's added that to his game, it makes him more difficult to guard at the 3-point line. Now when a defender closes out on him, they have to honor drive and shot as well."
Towson (4-11)
The Tigers had a two-win week, with two close wins over bottom of the pack teams in the CAA. Tony Franklin made two free throws with 4.8 seconds left for a three-point win Monday over James Madison. Saturday's three-pointer from Rashawn Polk with 17 seconds left in overtime gave the Tigers a five-point win. Towson has improved over the past week, shooting better than 48% in three straight games. The last time the Tigers shot better than 43% in three straight games was in December. Towson also benefitted from the free throw line, making a season-high 22 free throws in Monday's win and converting 83% in Saturday's overtime win. The Tigers hit a rough road trip which will take them from Williamsburg to Riverdale to play the MAAC's Manhattan Jaspers after a mid-week matchup at William & Mary.
Delaware (3-12)
The Blue Hens could only generate enough offense to win one game this week as they fell to last place in the CAA. Delaware shot 63-178 (35%) on the week. Jawan Carter led Delaware with 54 points on the week but the Blue Hens struggled with perimeter defense, allowing 18 three-pointers in three games. The Blue Hens rank last in the conference in field goal percentage; three point field goal percentage and blocked shots.
