Reviewed by Beverley Haun
These three books speak to the historic and continuing omission of Native voices in the Eurocentric cultural narratives of Canada and the United States and to the challenge Native writers are now bringing to this exclusionary narrative monopoly. By returning to historic Native texts in The Common Pot, and documenting the publication and performance of Indigenous counter-narratives in Muting White Noise and Taking Back our Spirits, these authors describe and assess the reion of Native voices and stories into historic memory. They demonstrate how Native authored texts resist Indigenous erasure, assert their survival, and reimagine the story of this continent.
The title Muting White Noise refers to American Native writer Sherman Alexie's use of the static emanating from a TV screen, when nothing is being broadcast, as a metaphor for the oppressive noise of white mass-produced culture and its insistence on conformity to narratives of imperial conquest and domination that not only enact, enhance, and justify colonialism in the past, but continue to do so now. Cox examines historic and contemporary Euro-American texts to demonstrate the frequency with which they express the desire to be relieved of the burden of imagining an Indigenous population in their American landscape.
Cox's book divides into three main sections. He considers American texts by authors of European ancestry, both past novels and current popular cultural production, and the ways they persist in reifying the colonial right to North American space as well as colonial self-described superiority and Native subservience or erasure. He focuses on contemporary Native texts, demonstrating how Native authors are creating both primary and secondary texts simultaneously, combining literary works with social criticism, producing texts that resist the imperial narrative and challenge its authority by writing Indigenous peoples back into their own ancestral spaces. The third section offers 'red readings' of colonial texts to foreground awareness of their overt and hidden maintenance of their Euro-American sense of superiority and to show the many ways that non-Native authors foreclose on a Native future and imagine an inevitable Native absence from the landscape. Cox argues that survival for Native Americans depends on recognition of the power of narrative to shape perception and a sense of self and others, combined with textual strategies for liberating the imagination from those texts—literary, historical, scientific, biological—upon which colonial authors base their grand narratives.
Taking Back Our Spirits, by Jo-Ann Episkenew, focuses on horrific past colonial traumas experienced by Native Canadians and current healing through personal and communal narratives. It begins with an accounting ofhistoric government policies and practices, with a specific focus on the prairies, that displaced and marginalized First Nations. Episkenew then demonstrates how these physical exclusionary policies are also reflected in Indigenous peoples' exclusion from the authorized story of the creation of the Canadian nation-state, resulting in a national collective myth that foregrounds and validates the story of settlers.
In the second part of her book, Episkenew considers the historic and continuing trauma experienced by First Nations as a result of these government policies, specifically removal from the land and residential schooling. She catalogues the repercussions down through time for parents forced to give up their children and children forced to live apart, being taught to discard their own languages and cultures as worthless. Into this bleak scenario, Episkenew introduces the hope of First Nations authors to use narrative, novels, autobiography, and community theatre as a healing anodyne for themselves and their own people. She explains how Indigenous life-writing helps Indigenous readers to heal from the trauma of colonization by recrafting their personal and collective myths. As well, Episkenew makes the case for such texts to find a place in the Canadian school curriculum and a place for study in the academy, arguing that inclusion in curriculum has the potential to disrupt the Canadian settler myth for young Canadians and inclusion in the academy validates the importance of these texts as a vital part of the recalibrated collective voice of the country.
The final portion of Episkenew's thesis is to demonstrate the importance of communal narrative participation—through theatrical production—performance, and attendance, to transform. This transformation is accomplished by addressing unresolved grief and trauma present in so many Native communities. As well as her main focus on damages caused by imperial practices, she also quotes Ian Ross, who sees his play farWel as having the ability to challenge Indigenous people to examine the roles they play in perpetuating their own victimization and subsequent oppression.
Lisa Brooks' The Common Pot is the most theoretical of the three books under review. Like Episkenew, Brooks emphasizes the historic importance of community over individuality for Indigenous cultures on the continent. She examines the connection between the Abenaki people and the land that informs their writing and shows how Native texts, written through the early colonial period on the American North East coast right through the American Revolution, use English to reinforce the importance of Native space, to resist colonization, and to describe the changes that were occurring through colonial imposition. Many maps of the East coast extending into Canada are gathered at the front of the book, offering a Native view of this portion of the continent without the European mapmaking borders and grids imposed through colonization.
Brooks begins by explaining the precolonization Abenaki narrative art of place making, Awikhigan, that functions as literature as well as history and is always rooted in their actual geographic space. It is an image-based, land-based communication form, an interactive text-map, originally including birch bark messages, maps, and scrolls, but later encompassing books and letters with the adoption of the alphabet. Brooks emphasizes that the interpretation of early Native texts cannot take place without a widespread understanding of the extensive place-worlds they inhabit and their role in these narratives of place.
The middle of the book examines postcolonial Abenaki texts, rooted in the Awikhigan tradition, that describe the ideals of their habitation of the land in the metaphor of a common pot into which all contribute and from which all take a share. Cautionary tales of individual land-greed creating hardship, and resistance to that greed restoring communal order, are layered with overtly political tracts addressed to the colonizers by such Native Leaders as Samson Occom and Joseph Brant. Finally Brooks turns to the present and the renaissance among Abenaki who are reclaiming their internal landscape by re-engaging with their Abenaki literary traditions.
Within these three critical works, many issues are addressed which continue to solidify the foundational place of Native voices and texts within a North American and Canadian narrative context. By acknowledging and privileging the work of Native scholars, these writers contribute to critical theory calling for Native literature to be judged according to its own criteria and not only according to the terms established by Euro-American literature and theory. By analyzing Native portrayal in colonial American texts, and analyzing contemporary Native writers and the power of their texts to memorialize trauma, these writers work to revise dominant histories and discourses and to continue the work of making the narrators and performers of colonial domination accountable for their past and continuing acts and exclusions.

If there is concern over the UFC being able to move forward with its Boston card with the same lineup that has been advertised, fans can perhaps breathe a little easier.
The UFC today went ahead as planned with ticket sales for UFC on FOX Sports 1 1, which is slated for Aug. 17 at TD Garden in Boston. The promotion issued a press release for ticket sales, which start on Thursday for the general public, but went on sale to UFC Fight Club members earlier today.
As reported earlier today, a story surfaced in the Boston Herald that said some fights on the show could be in jeopardy due to a Massachsetts law that keeps fighters born outside the country from competing without a U.S. Social Security number.
Slated for the card, the UFC's first on the new FOX Sports 1 cable network that debuts the same day, are foreign-born standouts like Mauricio Rua (21-7 MMA, 5-5 UFC), who headlines against Chael Sonnen (27-13-1 MMA, 6-6 UFC), and Alistair Overeem (36-12 MMA, 1-1 UFC), who meets Travis Browne (14-1-1 MMA, 5-1-1 UFC) in the co-main event.
This will not be the UFC's first trip to Massachsetts. UFC 118 took place in Boston in August 2010. Foreign-born fighters competed on that card without issue.
But Terrell Harris, a spokesman for Massachusetts' Depatment of Public Safety, told the Herald: "This law has been in existence since we legalized mixed martial arts in the commonwealth of Massachusetts. It's been brought to the attention of the UFC more than a few times since we legalized the fighting here. But they've chosen basically to ignore the law and hope that they could skirt it somehow."
SuckerPunch Entertainment's Shu Hirata, who manages several foreign fighters and assists them in filing U.S. taxes, told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) that the commission should change its regulations to reflect current laws by allowing non-American fighters to submit an individual tax ID number.
"Right now, if you don't live in the U.S., you just cannot get a number anymore," he said. "Instead, you have to get an individual tax ID number. Without the number, you can't file taxes."
Hirata said his fighters fill out a W-7 form and send a copy of their passport to the IRS in order to get the ID number, which gives the IRS a way to track earnings and taxes owed. The process usually takes a month to complete.
Harris wrote that the commission's current laws don't allow fighters to be licensed with individual tax IDs.
"Those are two entirely different numbers issued by the U.S. government and [the Depatment of Public Safety] cannot blatantly disregard the plain language of the law," Hirata told MMAjunkie.com.
UFC Vice President of Regulatory Affairs Marc Ratner told MMAFighting.com that the promotion is working on getting visas updated for all the foreign fighters on the card. The visa would allow them to get a social security number, which would allow the summer fight card to stay intact.

1. France - Les Bleus were drawn by England, but they still look like the group's best team going forward. Opening match naivete from some inexperienced attackers saw France play Monday's game out without any urgency. Then again, it was the first match of the tournament. Did they really need urgency?
2. England - One goal (not from open play), a few scares caused by Ashley Young and Danny Welbeck's speed, and that's about it going forward. We like to think that's a symptom of their approach – the Three Lions' reverence for France. What if it's not? What if it's a symptom of their limitations? Or (scarier), what if it's just a function of their coach's professional philosophies? If that's the case, this ranking's too high.
3. Ukraine - An inspired performance from Andriy Shevchenko vaults them to the top of Group D but not our ratings. Part of that is their competition's performance, part of that is our doubt that Shevchenko can replicate his production. Of course, the may not need Shevchenko. Somebody else might step up. The problem with Ukraine is identifying who.
4. Sweden - It's a very disappointing result, as Sweden would have wanted to get three from the team that felt the weakest in the group. Still, based on what we saw today, it's not so far fetched to see them qualifying. Thankfully, they're only one point out of second place.
Crystal Ball – What Needs to Happen Next Round
Group D resumes play on Friday:
Ukraine vs. France
Ukraine's success against Sweden came from exploiting the flanks. It's an approach that may serve them well against France (or at least force more of a defensive effort from Franck Ribery and Samir Nasri). Don't expect Anatoliy Tymoshchuk to have as easy a night, though. If Laurent Blanc attacks in the same way he did against England, Tymoshchuk will have to shut down Samir Nasri.
France may have Yann M'Vila back, but the defensive midfielder's greatest contribution won't be ball winning. His presence at the base of midfield in the attacking phase should free up Florent Malouda and Yoann Cabaye, who won't have to drop back to pick up the ball so often.
Sweden vs. England
The approach England used versus France should work against Sweden, but with the Swedes less dominant on the ball, England will get more time outside their own third. It remains to be seen how they handle those chances. If pre-tournament friendlies are any indication, Ashley Young should be their most dangerous player, especially if he's allowed to get at central defenders Olof Mellberg and Andreas Granqvist.
Sweden would be best served reversing one of the changes that made for Ukraine. Erik Hamrén got aggressive against Ukraine, putting another goal scorer (Ola Toivonen) in the starting XI and moving a wide midfielder (Rasmus Elm) to the middle. The decision forced a holder (Anders Svensson) to the bench. It didn't work, and against England, Sweden will want Svensson at the base of midfield so Kim Kallstrom's heavy left foot can run onto opportunities Zlatan Ibrahimovic lays back from a packed England defense.
Where, exactly, Zlatan's allowed to play is another issue. England's central midfield played so deep that Ibrahimovic may have to operate from wide or 25 yards to to get the kind of possession he needs in that system. Still Sweden's biggest goal scoring threat, Hamrén will have to decide what's more important: Having him on the ball, or having him in position to score. Against England, Ibra may not be able to walk the line.

Flashback: Joe Biden's Bold Prediction: Iraq Is "Gonna Be One Of The Great Achievements Of This Administration" (Video)
Before watching this, I think it's important we remember why Obama chose Joe for his running mate. It was because Obama was weak on foreign policy. Joe supposedly brought the wisdom and insight to that area. If that's true, Obama's clueless. From what we've see, it's true:
I am very optimistic about Iraq. I think it's gonna be one of the great achievements of this administration. You're gonna see 90,000 troops come marching home by the end of the summer. You're gonna see a stable Iraq that is actually moving toward a representative government…I've been impressed by how they've been deciding to use the political process rather than guns to settle their differences."

Stocks declined Tuesday as an inflation report agitated a market already rattled by worries about the financial sector. The Dow dipped into bear-market territory during intraday trading but thinly escaped by the closing bell.
Q: On Fast Money's trader radar we look at the stock that was lighting up screens across Wall Street. Founded by a grocer who felt frustration at his local office supply store's limited selection, this company now makes it 'easy' for customers looking for a wide range of products. But the shareholders didn't have it so easy today, as the stock tumbled on a weak forecast. Who is it?

Joe Magyer, senior analyst at The Motley Fool, offered CNBC three reasons why investors may get burned with solar stocks.
Two weeks ago, I said I haven't seen the Street so bearish since just after 9/11. This morning Investors Intelligence reported that their Bull/Bear survey of financial newsletter writers fell to 27.4 percent bullish, the lowest reading since July 1994. Bears rose to 47.3 percent, the highest since 1995.
Stocks rallied to the finish Friday, led by financials and techs, as a tame core-inflation reading and lower oil helped the market end a chaotic week on a high note.
Stocks regained lost ground heading into the final hour of trade, with lower oil boosting financials and a host of other beaten-down sectors as Wall Street bid to finish a seesaw week slightly higher.
A look ahead to some of the major European events in business and politics next week.
Stocks continued a solid rally Friday, boosted by falling oil prices and investors who swooped in to snatch up battered financial stocks.
Stocks pulled back following news that the Microsoft-Yahoo deal is off. Earlier, the market had rallied as oil prices receded, retail sales came in better than expected and merger in the beverage industry got investors jazzed up.
Stocks were well off their highs but still posting solid gains after unexpected strength in retail sales and a multibillion-dollar takeover bid in the brewing sector.
Stocks tumbled Wednesday as oil's resurgence lit the fuse of inflation fears, pushing the Dow to a three-month low. Oil jumped about $5 a barrel, settling at $136.38. Financials were the hardest hit.
Stocks fell sharply as oil's resurgence fanned inflation fears and a downgrade on Alcoa dragged on the Dow. Oil jumped about $6.
Solar energy is playing a bigger role in General Electric's energy portfolio, and GE Energy has announced it is taking a majority stake in PrimeStar Solar.
Stocks opened lower as oil's resurgence fanned inflation fears and a downgrade on Alcoa dragged on the Dow. Oil jumped nearly $3, topping $134 a barrel.
Wall Street looked set to open slightly higher on Wednesday, but the energy market could again hijack the stock market with U.S. inventory data arriving later in the morning.
For the week ending Friday, June 6, 2008, the markets finished in the red as the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) again crossed above the 20 threshold and oil surged. Stocks were impacted by continued economic concerns, renewed trouble in the financial sector, and a record spike in crude oil on Friday. Although it was a negative week for the markets, the Dow managed a 200+ point rally on Thursday for the first time since 4/18, after retailers posted better than expected same store sales.

Venice...so near, but so far..
... The landing into Venice was quite good despite the driving rain and lightning we could still see! Pouring in Venice. Been raining all day apparently and the thunderstorms knocked out the hotel internet. Off to the boat for the transfer to the hotel. Bit hard to see much with the rain and fading light. Got to the hotel around 8pm and got some tea and off to bed. Venice awaits tomorrow with hopefully the weather improving. (The porter was praying for us!). Photos next ...
Part 2 Venice or Venezia if you are a local !
... Marco (St Marks Square to the uninitiated !) where we join the throng ogling at the sights. A big cruise ship makes it's way along the waterway in front of us, Look at all those lucky people on board waving to us from their balcony and decks, wish we could do that too! Hang on, we just might! It is now high tide and the water is starting to spread over the square and feet are getting wet! Hope we get out of here before the whole place ...
Day 2: Procrastination and Venice
... and the people growing/harvesting the grapes.The winery was owned by the same family, starting with their grandfather, for 30 years. They were very friendly and showed us pictures of their pets (they loved Piper too) and their grapes. It was worth missing our train.
When we did get to Venice, we took the Vaporetto (water taxi) down the Grand Canal on the cheapskate tour. That's the tour where I read the guide book's information for the ...
Tyrol to Venice.
... the guide was quite informative of qwerty aspects of the venetian lifestyle. After the walking tour there was forty-five minutes free time. I managed to pick myself up a mask and a few souvineers for other people! The gondola ride was next, and thoroughly entertaining! Our gondolier was extremely talented, a few of the others not so much hitting a few walls here and there. But I wasn't about to take the reins, it's definitely ...
Day 14 – Off to Venice
... Basically they are buses of the waterways. While trying to figure out tickets and where to queue to get to Saint Mark's Square. We met a British mother and daughter and we helped each other figure out where we should be. While waiting to catch the boat, the mother started to get very angry and yell. A Romani woman started to yell back and then left. Here the Romani woman put a scarf over her backpack and zipped it open! No wonder she was ******.
We didn't have a map, so ...

NBC Comedies Solid Tuesday But ABC's 'Minds Games' Weak While Fox's 'Glee' Returns Low
NBC has won the first post-Olympics Tuesday in key demos behind "The Voice," which is looking a bit softer this cycle, and good timeslot premieres for comedies "About a Boy" and "Growing Up Fisher." Audiences, though, weren't interested in playing ABC's "Mind Games," and didn't seem all that excited for the return of Fox's "Glee."
CBS ran a close second to NBC in adults 25-54 and dominated the night as usual in total viewers with original dramas of its crime dramas, though they were at season lows across the board.
According to preliminary national estimates from Nielsen, the first Tuesday episode of the new season of "The Voice" averaged a 3.7 rating/11 share in adults 18-49 and 13.0 million viewers overall in the 8 o'clock hour -- down from the 4.1 demo score from the comparable night a year ago (when it premiered a month later) but easily the night's top program in 18-49 and 25-54 (4.9/13). The 21% dropoff from Monday to Tuesday for "The Voice" (4.7 to 3.7) was its largest for any season to date.
The music competition was followed by the Tuesday premieres of comedies "About a Boy" (2.4/7 in 18-49, 8.3 million viewers overall) and "Growing Up Fisher" (2.0/5 in 18-49, 7.0 million viewers overall), which were airing repeats of their special preview episodes over the weekend following NBC's coverage of the Winter Olympics; "Boy" did a 2.2 for its Saturday preview, and "Fisher" earned a 2.0 on Sunday. As a block Tuesday, they finished tied for second in adults 18-49, with each half-hour easily beating the Fox comedy in its timeslot ("About a Boy," pictured, won by 2.4 to 1.4 over "New Girl" and "Fisher" bested "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" 2.0 to 1.3).
It's tough to draw apples-to-apples comparisons to previous NBC comedy rollouts, but from a retention standpoint "About a Boy" and "Growing Up Fisher" looked pretty good -- especially considering these were episodes that had previously aired. In September 2012 (opposite repeats on rival nets), the combo of "Go On" and "The New Normal" averaged a 2.9 demo rating for their premieres (retaining 72% of "The Voice's" 4.0); and by March of last year, the shows averaged 1.6 on the spring season's premiere of "The Voice" (which did a 4.1).
Closing the night for NBC, "Chicago Fire" (1.8/5 in 18-49, 7.1 million viewers overall) returned to match the demo score of its prior original. It edged past CBS' "Person of Interest" (1.7/5 in 18-49, 10.8 million viewers overall), though the Eye drama prevailed in 25-54 and total viewers.
Elsewhere, ABC was above average for a Tuesday thanks to a special two-hour episode of Monday reality series "The Bachelor" (2.4/7 in 18-49, 8.1 million viewers overall), winning the 9 o'clock hour in 18-49. Despite that good lead-in, though, Christian Slater-Steve Zahn drama "Mind Games" settled for a 1.1/3 in 18-49 and 3.6 million viewers overall to finish well behind the competing dramas on CBS and NBC; previous timeslot occupant "Killer Women" opened to a 0.9 in early January (but that was following a 1.1 lead-in from "Trophy Wife"). And next week, when the 9:30 p.m. comedy returns to the ABC lineup, "Mind Games" figures to get a lead-in that's roughly one-third of the 2.6 it got last night.
At CBS, "NCIS" (2.6/8 in 18-49, 16.9 million viewers overall) and "NCIS: Los Angeles" (2.2/6 in 18-49, 13.1 million viewers overall), back in originals for the first time in three weeks, hit season lows; the former was second for its hour to "The Voice" in demos while the latter placed second to "The Bachelor" in 18-49 while running first in 25-54 (3.2/8). At 10, the "Person of Interest" scores also represented its low-water mark of the season.
Fox tried to energize its Tuesday by returning "Glee" to its former timeslot, but it generated merely a fourth-place 1.2/3 in 18-49 and 2.9 million viewers overall in the 8 o'clock hour opposite "The Voice"; while low, it wasn't quite the series-low 1.1 it pulled on a Thursday in early December opposite NBC's big "The Sound of Music." From there, "New Girl" (1.4/4 in 18-49, 2.8 million viewers overall) built a bit from "Glee," and "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" (1.3/3 in 18-49, 2.6 million viewers overall) held most of that audience -- both up a tick from their prior originals of two weeks ago opposite the Olympics.
CW held up pretty well with "The Originals" (0.8/2 in 18-49, 1.9 million viewers overall) and "Supernatural" (1.1/3 in 18-49, 2.4 million viewers overall), with the former down slightly and the latter up a smidge from their most recent originals. (The net's numbers are subject to revision, though, since the prelims include Bulls basketball in Chicago).
In metered-market latenight results, NBC's "Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" (4.0 household rating/10 share) matched the combined deliveries of CBS' "Late Show With David Letterman" (2.3/6) and ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" (1.7/4). The Peacock program was more dominant in adults 18-49, with its 1.7 rating comfortably ahead the combined totals of "Kimmel" (0.6) and "Late Show" (0.5) in Nielsen's 25 markets with Local People Meters.
At 12:35 a.m., the second night of "Late Night With Seth Meyers" (2.2/8 in metered-market households) easily beat CBS' "Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson" (1.1/4) as well as the half-hour "Nightline" on ABC (1.0/3). In the markets where 18-49 demo was gathered, "Late Night" did a 1.0, while both "Late Late Show" and "Nightline" did a 0.3.
Preliminary 18-49 averages for the night: NBC, 2.6/7; CBS, 2.2/6; ABC, 2.0/6; Fox, 1.2/3; Univision, 1.1/3; CW, 0.9/3; Telemundo, 0.6/2.
In total viewers: CBS, 13.6 million; NBC, 9.2 million; ABC, 6.6 million; Univision, 2.9 million; Fox, 2.8 million; CW, 2.2 million; Telemundo, 1.3 million.

Must-have apps for the travelling geek
Gadget fetishists have long known the virtues of packing a notebook PC when travelling.
Thanks to increasingly tough luggage weight restrictions, more folks are choosing not to cram already bulging cabin baggage with portable DVD players, e-book readers, iPods, cell phones, PDAs and memory card readers, packing a notebook PC instead.
Not only are notebook PCs now slimmer and lighter than ever, they're also versatile and can do the job of most standalone gadgets.
Versatility and security issues may see increasing numbers of laptops clocking up serious frequent flyer miles, but that's only half the story.
Having the wrong applications installed on your laptop can quickly transform your big Overseas Experience into an overwhelmingly excruciating experience. Here's a list of must have apps to install on your notebook PC prior to departure..
Click here or the image to the right for the best travel gadgets
Choosing the right travel notebook PC
Choosing a good travel companion notebook PC needn't be a traumatic task. There are a huge number of affordable yet practical notebooks available so balancing tight budgets and functionality isn't too tough provided you follow these simple guidelines:
Size: You needn't trade weight for functionality. Acer's Timeline range is a great example of this. Not only are they Jenny Craig thin and light, but they also have the right specs where they count. An ultra bright screen, dual layer DVD-writer combine with a roomy hard drive, zippy processor and an energy efficient design to give you up to 8 hours battery life.
Warranties: Make sure any notebook you choose has an international warranty (and is also covered by your travel insurance). Buying one not supported in the countries you're visiting is just asking for trouble.
Power: With mains supplies ranging from 110 to 240 volts, a universal power supply is a must, most notebook power adaptors tend to be multi-voltage, but check before purchasing just in case. Power spikes and electricity brown-outs are particularly frequent in most developing countries and can fry unprotected PCs, so buying a small plug-sized surge protector is a no brainer.
Networking: Because you're bound to encounter situations where connecting wirelessly with Wi-Fi simply isn't possible, check for an Ethernet port. Most cyber cafes are happy to hook you up using an Ethernet connection.
DVD: In many instances, changing the region code on your notebook PC's DVD drive more than four times can make the last change permanent. Before plunking down any cash check to see if your notebook PCs DVD drive is region free or if not, find out what brand of DVD drive it is equipped with. A quick check on RPC1.org can quickly tell you if it can be updated to permanent region-free status. A composite and HDMI video output plus cables will also let you watch DVDs on your hotel room TV.

Couldn't you find gloves to match? Carol Vorderman overdoes it on the red accessories for theatre trip
She doesn't always get it quite right on the fashion front but you can't knock Carol Vorderman for trying.
And trying is exactly what she did on Tuesday evening when she attended a performance of Top Hat musical in London.
The 51-year-old went above and beyond the call of duty in terms of accessorising with red but it seems she couldn't find the gloves to match and opted for a white pair reminiscent of Mickey Mouse's instead.
Seeing red: Carol Vorderman overdid it with her matching accessories as she went to the theatre on Tuesday
The Loose Women presenter wore a red overcoat with double buttons on it, beneath which her red dress could be seen.
She matched her coat with a red leather handbag and a pair of red peep-toe heels, creating a rather over-the-top look.
However there was one part of her outfit that stood out like a sore thumb - her white gloves which were more than obvious next to the vibrant red.
Fun with friends: Carol was joined at the theatre by Natalie Gumede and Jane McDonald
Missing piece: The only part of Carol's outfit that didn't match was her gloves, which may have been more suited to Natalie's outfit
Carol's brunette hair, which she regularly changes, was worn loose and wisely she opted not to finish her look off with red lipstick.
The TV personality was joined at the theatre by fellow Loose Woman Jane McDonald and Coronation Street actress Natalie Gumede.
It seems former cruise ship singer Jane got the memo about dressing vibrantly as she wore a hot pink dress underneath her brown fur coat.
Date night: As well as being with her friends, Carol was also joined by her new man Graham Duff
Other familiar faces at the show included Tony Blackburn and his daughter Victoria, as well as Anneka Rice.
Top Hat is musical based on the 1935 screwball comedy musical which starred Fred Astaire and Ginger Roger.
Carol is currently working on a new ITV cookery contest, Food Glorious Food, where she gets to taste food all day long.
Quality time: Tony Blackburn was joined by his daughter Victoria for a fun evening at the theatre
The new show stars on Wednesday and clearly excited about it Carol tweeted on Tuesday: 'One more day until Food Glorious Food starts on ITV tomorrow at 8pm xx can't wait... @itvfgf x'
She recently admitted she's having the best time filming it and eats without guilt.
And despite having a figure most women dream of, Carol recently revealed in an interview with Radio Times magazine that looking good is not on the top of her priority list.
Smiley: TV personality Anneka Rice made a rare public appearance to watch the famous musical
Describing herself as a 'saggy-bellied mother-of-two', Carol said: 'I haven't weighed myself since I went on a detox at 39. I'd probably have the shock of my life.
'I don't worry about my looks going. Of course I dye my hair, I prefer it not to be grey.'

Ecclestone promises no standing restarts in 2015
Bernie Ecclestone has promised to scrap standing restarts following safety car periods for the 2015 season after a barrage of public pressure. The new regulation has already been approved by the World Motor Sport Council, so it isn't clear how Ecclestone plans to have it scrapped as such a change would require a unanimous vote. But the 83-year-old though is adamant, that after an action-packed Hungarian Grand Prix, that no major changes are required to 'spice up the show'. "There will be no standing start after a safety car phase," he promised. "What we have seen in Budapest, was good enough. "We just need some fine tuning. All the stupid and unnecessary rules that have...

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Our Place Chez Nous Drop-In Centre Inc.
Spirit of Giving
What they do:
OUR Place Chez Nous Drop-In Centre arose in 1987 when Sister Jane McDonald saw a need for people on Winnipeg's skid row, Main Street, to have a safe, restful place.
McDonald died in 2003 of breast and lung cancer, but her legacy lives on.
"A lot of people come here because they've got no place to go, because they've been barred from places," said Jackie Gushuliak, a volunteer treasurer at Our Place Chez Nous Drop-In Centre, which provides year-round supports to the homeless. The centre's main rule is that clients must be sober when they visit.
Located at 676 Main St., near Higgins Avenue and across from Thunderbird House, the centre gives Winnipeggers a warm place where they can have coffee and snacks, get toiletries, visit friends and chat. On Tuesday mornings, the centre gives people a chance to shower, shave, and slip on new socks and undies.
Hopes for the holidays:
"It's a very, very difficult time for people at Christmas because a lot have been abandoned by their families," Gushuliak said. Last Sunday, the centre held its annual Christmas dinner. Santa Claus stopped by for photos and to hand out gift bags of mitts, hats, scarves and toiletries, plus $10 Giant Tiger gift certificates.
Throughout the holidays, the drop-in will keep its regular hours: Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, 9 a.m. to 11:45 a.m.
How you can help:
The centre is fully operated by volunteers and welcomes anyone wanting to lend a hand.
Most donations come from Winnipeg Catholic churches, but anyone can make arrangements to donate cash, household goods, coffee, tea, toiletries, household goods and clothing by calling (204) 956-1359.
