Pledges that whatever the outcome, voting hours will be uniform statewide
COLUMBUS - Secretary of State Jon Husted today announced that he will ask the U.S. Supreme Court to make the final determination on whether the General Assembly of the State of Ohio or the federal courts should set Ohio election laws. Husted will be appealing the Friday decision by the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals in Obama v. Husted. Regarding this decision, all of the following may be attributed to Secretary Husted:
"This is an unprecedented intrusion by the federal courts into how states run elections and because of its impact on all 50 states as to who and how elections will be run in America we are asking the Supreme Court to step in and allow Ohioans to run Ohio elections.
"This ruling not only doesn't make legal sense, it doesn't make practical sense. The court is saying that all voters must be treated the same way under Ohio law, but also grants Ohio's 88 elections boards the authority to establish 88 different sets of rules. That means that one county may close down voting for the final weekend while a neighboring county may remain open. How any court could consider this a remedy to an equal protection problem is stunning.
"As a swing state, we in Ohio expect to be held to a high standard and level of scrutiny when it comes to elections. However, it's troubling that the federal courts have failed to recognize that there isn't another state in the union which can claim Ohio's broad menu of voting options and opportunity to vote. In Ohio, ALL voters already have at least 230 hours available to vote in person prior to Election Day, ALL registered voters received an application to vote by mail and ALL voters still have the ability to vote during the 13-hour window on Election Day itself.
"While I will be asking the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold Ohio law through the appeals process, the last thing I want to see is a non-uniform system where voters will be treated differently in all 88 counties.
"Since some boards of elections have already started to take action on hours of operation for the three days before Election Day, I am going to take time to consult with all 88 counties before crafting a directive to set uniform hours should the state not be successful upon appeal."

Having had a rather lovely existence and time of it over the years, dancing to lifes song… it sure was a kick in the teeth 2 years ago when one of the sweetest guys I ever dreamed of left this physical plane, taking with him a huge piece of my heart.
I know some of you are aware of my story the last 2 years and although I don't care to dwell here too long only to say what great insights and lessons learnt has brought me to a greater happier place than ever before.
This January really has marked a complete turnaround in focus and direction from not only those little internal voices but to the bigger picture I want for my life and for Extinct.
This year is going to be fun. I can feel it in my bones and sense it in my heart. Working with some great designers, makers, producers and finders to bring the best vintage dresses, handmade homewares, retro gifts and unique items exactly what you want, what were always looking for in perfect timing!
If you are reading this and are currently going through January not of your liking I urge you to check out the links below.

National Popcorn Day, a time to observe the crunchy snack loved by many, normally occurs at the end of January. Though a set day has been argued, some observe this fiber rich phenomenon on January 19th. For the remainder of those who celebrate National Popcorn Day, this event coincides around the timing of the Super Bowl.
No matter when you celebrate, anytime is a great time for popcorn! My family loves to eat it for a variety of reasons. As I stated above, it is a great source of fiber so that big bucket will fill up bellies in a hurry. In addition, it can be eaten as healthy as you like it or as unhealthy as you like it. Looking for a low calorie option? Air pop some quality popcorn kernels, add a little bit of salt substitute (or none at all) and chow down. Would you rather dress it up? Melt chocolate or caramel over it for a purely pleasurable salty and sweet snack.
Looking to celebrate the day of the much loved food with your family? At Popcorn.org, you can learn all about the history of popcorn, get activity ideas, and recipes to whip up some different snacks for the family. They even have popcorn coloring pages for the kiddos!
Dale and Thomas Popcorn is celebrating by offering 20% off orders when coupon code: POPCORN12 is applied at checkout. Check out their variety like Chocolate & Peanut Butter DrizzleCorn, Southwest Cheddar Chipotle, Hall of Fame Kettle Corn, and more!

When you need to get your game on, this is currently the most advanced system out there. It started slow off the block with only a few good titles. Recently, the titles have started ramping up again for the fall. This is an excellent choice if you have an HDTV and surround sound. Must have titles for this system include Call of Duty 2, Oblivion, Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter and Dead Rising. Upcoming titles like Gears of War, Halo 3, Lost Planet and Mass Effect will keep the momentum going when the console wars go into full swing this winter.

We bought this for my stepson, but we use it as a DVD player. We got a HDTV, and only the Xbox 360 does justice to it. I also play Amped 3, a snowboarding game. I started playing it to help my son over some of the challenges, but found that I really enjoyed it also. For me, console gaming has some advantages over the pc, but since I have trouble getting the Xbox 360(s) away from my stepson and son, the argument's kind of moot anyway.

I am an age-old gamer of the Commodore 64. Old-fashioned, a young nip of the X-Box 360 generation might say, but I know I could reduce that young nip to tears if I fully and justifiably explained to him how woefully inept the games of his brand new console are, at the time of this writing, in comparison to my eighties masterpieces like CASTLE WOLFENSTEIN. Indeed, as yet no game of the 360 comes anywhere close to the Commodore 64's ZORK I: THE GREAT UNDERGROUND EMPIRE. In fact, no game of the 360 comes anywhere close to the Commodore 64's TAI-PAN. No game of the 360 comes anywhere close to the Commodore 64's SID MEIER'S PIRATES! No game of the 360 comes anywhere close to the Commodore 64's WIZARDRY: PROVING GROUNDS OF THE MAD OVERLORD. These games are masterpieces and I can tell you why although I have to save you the effort of finding out since, before I forget, this is a review of the X-Box 360. The fact is a console is only as good as its best games, therefore the Commodore 64, with all these gaming masterpieces, can be justifiably deemed gaming genius. I will, then, not lower its high standards by comparing it with the 360 just to quench the modernistic tendencies of any young nipper of this new gaming generation. I will, instead, use what gaming experience I have to enlighten and inform as to the 360's only advantage over not just this greatest of gaming consoles but, at the time of this writing, any console ever made. This advantage, simply put, is its immense possibilities. The 360, because of its state-of-the-art gaming technology, has far more possibilities, immense possibilities, than the Commodore 64 ever had when it was released early in the eighties. The scope of the 360 is still beyond my non-technical mind. Speed: 3.2Ghz (compared to the C64's 1.02Mgz) Memory: 512MB (compared to the C64's maximum of 512KB) Storage: detachable and upgradeable 20GB hard drive, 12x dual layer DVD-ROM drive and a Memory Unit support starting at 64MB. Two memory unit slots Support for up to four wireless game controllers Three USB ports Access to X-Box Live features Built in Ethernet port Wi-Fi ready Video camera ready Plays all media types: DVD-Video, DVD-ROM, DVD-R/RW, CD-DA, CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW, WMA CD, MP3 CD, JPEG Photo CD. Multi-Channel surround sound Backward compatible with the most popular X-Box games (note: not all) Description of unit: Smaller and sleeker than the original X-Box, operated in a vertical or horizontal position, very smooth looking The only question after all this back-of-the-box information is: so what? Next generational consoles have been released before at the height of what was then technological brilliance but still ultimately fared less than their lesser consoles because of their emphasis on new features rather than quality of games. What concerns the 360, then, is to use its current state-of-the-art technology to release gaming masterpieces, and if not masterpieces then at least great games, because the gaming world is chock-full of good ones, games we all love, but it's sorely lacking in gaming masterpieces like those available for the Commodore 64. So before we ask whether the X-Box 360 will take advantage of the technological advantages it has over every other console, we will ask, a year after it was released, has it taken advantage of the technological advantages it has? How many gaming masterpieces are there, if any, so soon after the birth of the console? I have already played many good games, soon-to-be classics, all of which show signs of what can be done, albeit with a little more push and a little more inspiration, and all of which will easily satisfy the modern gaming hounds out there hounding for the next new thing; and as for great games, I have so far played two, which, of more consequence, I have listed and summarised for your perusal. 1. THE ELDER SCROLLS IV: OBLIVION (06) If you have a life I advise you to not so much as watch someone else playing this game. I luckily have no life and therefore it's all the same to me. I can freely admit that I have lost big chunks of days since the very first moment I played this game some months ago, a cold and rainy morning I recall, and no doubt, as I sit typing and watching rain splutter against my window, today will be no exception. I can feel my fingertips itching already. THE ELDER SCROLLS IV: OBLIVION is a role-playing game no different to any other role-player in that your task is to do what the hell you want in a huge world, however with a slight twist on any other role-player in that with this game you might just forget that it isn't real. A vast improvement over its predecessors from other systems, everything has been 360 tweaked to near-perfection. The people who populate the world with you are now more or less fully functioning intelligent beings who react to the world around them. I use the terms "near-perfection" and "more or less" because there are still times when some of the people do nothing but stare at walls, repeat dialogue and, for me worst of all, disappear in front of doors. Another irritant is the loading times. They are certainly short but they are also certainly frequent. However, these niggles aside the game as a whole is immensely entertaining, immensely addictive (I have warned you) and immensely funny, dramatic and ultimately very, very satisfying; and to think, at the time of this writing, I haven't even completed the game yet! 2. TOM CLANCY'S GHOST RECON: ADVANCED WARFIGHTER (06) Tom Clancy must be making a buck or two. A popular novelist with his ideas being turned into (some) fantastic games, I am usually a little sceptical when I see his name once again on another new title. Surely, I think to myself, it's a rehash of the same thing. With this rehash, however, I wasn't just sceptical, I was sure I would get nothing special from it having already played it on the original X-Box and having thought nothing more of it than entertaining. It was more for my own personal comparison of the original X-Box with the X-Box 360 that I eventually sat down with a beer and, if truth be told, remained that way for the whole weekend. Indeed, by the time Monday shone through my steamy window this game had made a 360 fan out of me. You are the Captain of a Ghost Force assigned to protect the North American Head of State from a terrorist attack as he visits Mexico City for a controversial conference. News that secret nuclear weapon codes have recently been stolen only adds intensity to your already intense task of guiding Ghost Forces and Special Operation agents through the terrifyingly hostile populated city streets to complete missions required to keep the peace. I have recently played this same game on the PC and, for anybody wondering, it is identical. Aside from a few of the missions bordering on routine and slowing everything down, it is still a world away from the lesser original X-Box, and so Playstation 2, versions due to the 360 starting to use its better game engine to full effect, which is atmosphere so heavy, visuals so crisp and sound so crackingly real that you can actually feel the danger, and so honour, of being Captain in command of such a harrowing situation. By far the most accomplished 360 game so far. So now we come to the three hundred and sixty million dollar question: are there any gaming masterpieces yet? The short answer, at the time of this writing, is no, the long answer is the long wait we all eagerly have in store for us as the X-Box 360, barely warmed up, sinks its big steel technological teeth into its own far-reaching capabilities. Is it the greatest gaming console? Of course not. Can it be? You bet. Happy gaming.

This item offers many features that have proved to be elusive on other consoles, such as Xbox Live and amazing graphics that the gamers of the early days could only dream and fantisize about. Also (much like the Nintendo Wii) you can buy games through Xbox Live, hard to find games that would cost loads of money on like eBay, except that you can buy games from ANY system, unlike the Wii which I've been told that can only get previous Nintendo games. This is a great system to be involved with.

I wouldn't call myself a gamer. I find most games to be more work than fun. But the Xbox 360 has come a long way from systems of yore and has features that impressed me. I got the 60 GB, 2 game bundle package for $299 - which can be found for $279 or so as well. It's quite a value. THe console is well designed. The newly updated (NXE) interface is a breeze to use. By far the best feature, in my opinion, is Xbox Live. This turns all those dull single player games into multi-person cooperative fun! Just about every game released for this system has an online component. It sure has gotten me to play! There are some minor quibbles. Internet connectivity requires an Ethernet cable - there is no WiFi built in. The CD spinning in the tray is quite loud, as are the fans. And there are high failure rates (be sure to get a store replacement warranty). However this is still the best console available today for gamers and a great addition to the Nintendo Wii.

No college freshman should enter into a university without being fully prepared. These days, "fully prepared" means being armed with a suitable gaming device. And don't kid yourself, the Xbox 360 is the ultimate college gaming device. Do yourself a favor and buy this for your new graduate, before they end up selling plasma for a gaming fix -- college is stressful.

We use the Xbox360 mainly to stream media to our home theater system and it works flawlessly. Quick, intuitive menu, Dolby Digital for movies and games, Great picture quality. All in all, a very powerful and uesful device. When we do get a chance to play games, there is nothing greater than playing a FPS with a full surround sound system. Xbox Live is a great service, and even with monthly dues, the price is well worth the reward. Using Netflix is also so nice and easy to use. Can't wait for more HD content and Last.fm in the fall!

Nowadays ISP's and such are scanning Emails and blocking any that have spyware attachments or virus's ....
I would think its possible you either have Virus's or spyware that has infected your Emails and is not allowing them to go through...
try using Spybot, ... Adaware ... and Panda AV Online scan to see if thats a possibility...

Are you running your own email server? I know some isp's, aol is one of them, will not accept email from you if you run one of those personal software email smtp servers, postcast server is one of those, from your home pc or laptop.
If this is your situation then that would be the problem.
They do some kind of lookup to see where the email originated from and if they dont get back the right info then they bounce you.Always learning

This adult moth has a spectacular pattern, with bold white lines and two large eyespots. Note how the diagonal lines on the wings link up when the moth is at rest to give it a false axis.
The moth has a penchant for facing downward when clinging to a vertical surface. In this orientation: one might imagine that it is a huge face with a slightly open mouth and a striped nose. The moth has a wingspan of about 5 cms.
The species is found over the northern half of Australia, in

The Hillary Follies
Two years ago, Hillary Clinton enjoyed near universal media praise for her work as Secretary of State. Several months ago, Mrs. Clinton wisely announced that she would not serve as SecState beyond Obama's first term. Today, the reasons why are becoming clearer. That "Reset" button (that was mistranslated) doesn;t seem to be working out very well with Russia. Al Kamen's In the Loop column at the Washington Post looks at a column in the Russian paper that strikes back at the secretary of state's criticism and calls her "butch" and a "trucker" type, possibly with tattoos. U.S.-Russian relations may have truly hit bottom. A vicious, over-the-top newspaper column Sunday blasted Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton for saying Russian and Chinese vetoes of an Arab League-backed peace plan for Syria were "despicable." The column in Pravda - formerly a commie house organ and now apparently in that same mode - was headlined "Despicable is Hillary Clinton." "She started four years ago as a charming Secretary of State, the smile on the snout to wipe.... (Read Full Article)

This library is an extension to Tapestry 4.0 that provides a new type of property persistence strategy, "flash". A flashed property is stored in the session only briefly ... until the next request that accesses that page.
Flashed properties are most often used to store temporary messages. They are extremely useful when combined with the redirect-after-post pattern for handling form submissions.
The name and the idea have been borrowed from Ruby On Rails.
Any property of a page or component may be marked as persisting in the flash. Using the @Persist annotation:
public abstract class MyPage extends BasePage { @Persist("flash") public abstract String getMessage(); public abstract void setMessage(String message);
Alternately, you may use the <property> element in a page or component specification:
<property name="message" persist="flash"/>
Flashed properties make the most sense when combined with the redirect-after-post pattern (otherwise, the flashed properties may appear to live too long: once for the initial render, then once more on the next access to the page). The redirect-after-post approach is very easy to implement in Tapestry 4.0. From the form's submit listener method:
@InjectObject("engine-service:page") public abstract IEngineService getPageService(); public ILink doFormSubmit() { // ... write data to a database setMessage("Your changes have been saved."); return getPageService().getLink(false, getPageName()); }
Returning an ILink from a listener method causes Tapestry to send a redirect reponse to the client web browser; the use of the page engine service will cause the current page to be redisplayed, with the message set in the listener method ("Your changes ...").
If the user refreshes the page, the form will not be resubmitted, instead, the page will simply be re-rendered. The message will, however, not appear (that is the nature of the flash; values stick around only until used the first time).
Version 1.0.0 is now available. If you don't care for Maven, you may access the binary and source distribution files at http://howardlewisship.com/downloads/tapestry-javaforge/.

Recently, I attended two pre-trial conferences in geographically separate courts. I love pre-trials. They offer an opportunity for opponents to sling inadmissible mud at each other in the presence of the court with impunity. The events are always noteworthy, as they take place out of earshot of a stenographer, and are therefore juicier than the usual arid proceedings.

Mayhem to release new album
Mayhem's new record "Ordo Ab Chao" is set for a April 23rd release date. You can download the track "Anti" from the cd HERE.
The track listing for the new album "Ordo Ab Chao":
01. A Wise Birthgiver
02. Wall of Water
03. Great Work of Ages
04. Deconsecrate
05. Illuminate Eliminate
06. Psychic Horns
07. Key to the Storms
08. Anti
Artwork HERE.
Guitarist Blasphemer (a.k.a. Rune Erickson) had this to say:
"The sound is raw and powerful, and listening to it, it reminds me of the 'Wolf's Lair Abyss' era, only more varied and more philosophical. The album also contains the most aggressive songs in the MAYHEM history as well as the most wicked and darkest."
This is Mayhem's first album since 1993 with frontman Attila Csihar back on vocal duties.

For thousands of years, human mobility has brought all manner of species to isolated islands and regions, with the result being powerfully disrupted ecosystems. As I've said before, in recent decades we've become something of a Waring blender for biology, for better or worse.
Snakes have been particularly damaging. Their impact can also be particularly, well, vivid, as seen in this sequence of images of an introduced boa constrictor swallowing a yellow oriole in Aruba last August (the photos are by Greg Peterson, the chairman of Aruba Birdlife Conservation):
Peter Fong, a writer, editor and flyfishing guide, has tracked Dot Earth coverage of travails related to various invasive species and, after tagging along recently with the Boa Constrictor Task Force in Aruba, sent the following Dot Earth Post Card providing a closeup view of Aruba's struggle with introduced snakes.
It's worth reading, particularly, because he points out that the reptiles, while perhaps the most charismatic enemy of native birds, are hardly the only threat:
Like many islands elsewhere in the world, Aruba has seen its wildlife powerfully affected by introduced species. Boa constrictors are one of the latest threats.
Courtesy of Peter FongAruba's native mockingbirds, owls and orioles have met the enemy. And it swallows them whole. According to Aruba Birdlife Conservation, boa constrictors kill more than 17,000 island birds per year. Unless more robust efforts are made to control these ravenous invaders, local extinction is a real possibility for some bird species. Read more…

Zizzi London Map
London Map of all the Zizzi Locations
Published on:
Advertising, Drawing, Illustration
- London Map
Client - Zizzi
The Brief: Create an intricate and geographically accurate map of London, showing where all the Zizzi restaurants are located - When the call for this job came along, I was so excited. I love a good map, so a brief to create a London map for Zizzi was pretty exciting!
I started out by sourcing a selection of London maps, and seeing how they were laid out. I took inspiration from old style maps, and I was very keen to include drawings of London landmarks and places of interest.
I started out with my favourite medium: tracing paper and rapidograph pens. I laid out the streets using a similar London map of the City of London, and I began putting in the drawings of interesting locations.
The longest element of this project was the initial blocking out of the city. This took a while, and as I was illustrating a certain building, I'd realised that a street was missing, or I'd forgotten to put in a borough.
Eventually though, the skeleton of the illustration of London was complete. That's when I scanned it in, and took it to my first meeting with Zizzi about the progress of the map. We decided to add colour, and add more detail and buildings.
The length of the job was around a month and a half. It was a lovely illustration job to do, and I'm thrilled with the results.
If you can't get your hands on a printed map at Zizzi (they flew off the shelves!) You can find it in the Association of Illustrators Images 35 book which is on sale at Somerset House shop this October.

Different Colours
2012 release from the British Electronic/Ambient act. Different Colours, their sixth album overall, is the first to prominently feature the work of pianist Duncan Meadows, who joined the group initially for live duties and was asked into the fold more permanently in 2010. Playful and brighter, Different Colours is aptly named and finds Marconi Union shifting the focus from cool introspection to a friendlier, dynamic sound pierced in places by electric guitar and hushed vocals.

Women's Basketball Heads to Hartford for America East Championship; Sixth-Seeded Retrievers Face Boston University Friday Afternoon
Michelle Kurowski scored 23 points in last year's quarterfinals loss to Binghamton. |
WEST HARTFORD, Conn.--The sixth-seeded UMBC women's basketball team (13-16, 7-9 AE) takes on No. 3 Boston University (15-13, 11-5 AE) Friday afternoon in the quarterfinals of the America East Championship. Tip-off from the University of Hartford's Chase Arena at the Reich Family Pavilion is set for 2:15 p.m. Watch the game live at AmericaEast.tv or listen on Fox1370 AM. Also, be sure to check out Championship Central for tournament information and box scores from all games.
RETRIEVER UPDATE: UMBC heads into the America East Championships having won four of its last seven games. At 7-9 in America East play, the Retrievers are tied for fourth place in the conference standings, their best finish ever in seven years in the America East; however, they earn the no. 6 seed in this weekend�s conference championship by virtue of tiebreakers. In addition, the seven league victories match UMBC�s most since joining the conference; the 2005-06 team also won seven America East contests. UMBC swept the season series from three league opponents - Boston University, Albany and Maine - and was swept by Hartford, Vermont, Binghamton and Stony Brook. The Retrievers split the series with New Hampshire, with each team winning on the road. UMBC is coming off a 59-48 loss at Stony Brook in Saturday�s regular-season finale. Sophomore forward Erin Brown posted her fifth career double-double but first of the season with 11 points and 10 rebounds, while sophomore guard Michelle Kurowski scored a team-high 14 points and added seven boards. The Retrievers lead the league in free throw percentage in America East games (.748), and Kurowski�s .825 overall clip at the charity stripe is the best in the conference the year and the third-best single-season mark by a Retriever ever. In addition, sophomore center Top� Obajolu, the only Retriever to start all 29 games this season, leads the America East with 2.0 blocks against league opponents, and her 39 blocks on the year rank sixth all-time at UMBC. Senior guard Carlee Cassidy is the Retrievers� leading scorer for the third year in a row with 13.1 ppg, ranking eighth in the conference, and she is closely followed by Kurowski at 12.9 ppg. Cassidy became the 23rd player in America East history to score 1,600 points on Wednesday, and she is UMBC�s second all-time leading scorer with 1,609 in her career, a school Division I record. Already the Retrievers� all-time record holder for career 3-pointers, she ranks second in league history with 246 in her career. She also became UMBC�s all-time leader in games played on Saturday with 118, surpassing former teammate Sharri Rohde.
TERRIER UPDATE: Boston Univeristy (15-13, 11-5) has won three of its last five games after defeating New Hampshire, 79-65, in the regular-season finale. Guard Alex Young paced the Terriers with 27 points, while forward Caroline Stewart posted her second straight double-double with 13 points and 10 rebounds and guard Chantell Alford added 13 points and nine assists. The Terriers, who were picked to finish tied for fourth in the preseason coaches� poll, earned the No. 3 seed in the America East Championship. Alford has earned America East Rookie of the Week six times this season; she is the league�s second-leading scorer with 15.3 ppg, while Young ranks fifth (14.2 ppg) and guard Caitlynn Moran is 12th (12.6 ppg). Moran also ranks fourth in the conference in assists (4.4 apg) and second in assist-to-turnover ratio (1.5), while Alford ranks second in steals (2.5 spg) and Moran is fifth (2.2 spg). Alford is also the conference�s second-best 3-point shooter at 40.8 percent, and forward Aly Hinton is its second-best free throw shooter at 81.2 percent while ranking fifth in 3-point percentage (.371). Stewart is the Terriers� top rebounder, averaging 7.0 rpg. Boston University boasts the second-best offense in the America East, scoring 65.5 ppg, but is second-to-last in scoring defense, allowing 65.2 ppg. The Terriers average 6.8 triples per game, the second-best mark in the league.
Who�s Up Next: A win would send UMBC to the semifinals on Sunday at 11 a.m. The Retrievers will take on the winner of the quarterfinal matchup between No. 2 Vermont and No. 7 Albany. A second win would put UMBC in the championship game next Saturday at 8 p.m.
Inside the Series: Friday's game marks the 17th all-time meeting between UMBC and Boston University, and the Terriers hold an 11-5 series advantage. The first meeting occurred on Dec. 27, 1991, a 76-64 victory for BU at the La Salle Tournament. The teams did not meet again until the Retrievers joined the America East Conference in 2004, and they have met twice a year since. The Terriers won the first two meetings as league rivals, but the teams split the season series in each of the next three years. Boston U. took six in a row from Feb. 4, 2007-March 4, 2009, sweeping the 2008 and 2009 season series and also defeating the sixth-seeded Retrievers, 88-59, in the 2008 America East quarterfinals as the No. 3 seed, but UMBC swept the 2010 series for the first time ever. UMBC senior guard Carlee Cassidy is averaging 18.0 ppg on 40.2 percent (43-for-107) shooting and 46.6 percent (27-for-58) from long distance in eight career games against the Terriers. UMBC and Boston U. met just nine days ago, on Feb. 24, at the RAC Arena, a thrilling 58-57 come-from-behind victory for the host Retrievers. Cassidy scored 16 of her game-high 25 points during UMBC�s second-half comeback and added nine rebounds and three assists on her Senior Night. Junior forward Meghan Colabella scored 11 points on 4-of-6 shooting, including 3-of-3 from long distance, and sophomore guard Michelle Kurowski netted 14 points. The Retrievers trailed by as many as 23 points early in the second half but used runs of 19-0 and 17-3 to earn the victory. BU forward Caroline Stewart posted a double-double with 10 points and a game-high 14 rebounds, while guard Chantell Alford led the Terriers with 14 points and was 4-of-6 from 3-point range. In the teams� first meeting of the season, Jan. 24 at Case Gym, UMBC sophomore guard Katie Brooks hit a 3-pointer with 1:47 remaining to lead the Retrievers to a 65-63 win. Cassidy scored 18 points on five 3-pointers and added six assists, while sophomore center Top� Obajolu netted 15 points on 6-of-9 shooting. Alford led the Terriers with 16 points and added seven boards.
Game Notes: Friday's game is UMBC�s 30th of the season, marking only the fifth time the Retrievers have played 30 games in one year, but the fourth time in as many seasons. UMBC is 1-3 all-time in Game 30, with all four contests occurring in the postseason. The Retrievers are 1-0 at neutral sites this year after defeating East Carolina at the Fordham Holiday Classic on Dec. 28.
UMBC Tournament Notes: UMBC is playing in its seventh America East Conference Championships since joining the league in 2003-04. The Retrievers had never won an America East Tournament game before 2007, when they made a Cinderella run through the league to win their first-ever conference title and earn a berth in the NCAA Tournament. Seventh-seeded UMBC became the first team in America East history to defeat the top three seeds in the tournament (No. 2 Stony Brook 67-64/Quarterfinals, No. 3 Vermont 67-56/Semifinals, No. 1 Hartford 48-46/Finals) and were the lowest seed ever to win the league championship. The 16th-seeded Retrievers then fell to top-seed Connecticut in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Prior to 2007, UMBC had made just one other title game appearance, when first-year head coach Phil Stern led the Retrievers to the 2003 Northeast Conference finals in their last year in the league. UMBC was also seeded seventh that season and took down No. 2 Quinnipiac and No. 3 Monmoth before falling to regular-season champion St. Francis (Pa.) in the finals. Those wins were UMBC�s last conference tournament victories before 2007. UMBC was seeded 10th in its first two years in the America East and lost to seventh-seeded Northeastern both times, 55-30 in 2003-04 and 49-48 in 2004-05. In 2006, the upstart Retrievers took the league by surprise and finished fifth in the conference but lost to fourth-seeded Binghamton, 72-66, in overtime in the quarterfinals. In 2008, the sixth-seeded Retrievers fell to No. 3 Boston U., 88-59, in the quarterfinals, and last season, No. 4 Binghamton defeated No. 5 UMBC, 66-54, in the quarterfinals, as well. UMBC is 6-16 all-time in Division-I tournament play dating to 1991 and 3-5 in America East Tournament action. Before 2003, the Retrievers� only tournament victory was in 1994 as members of the Big South, when they were seeded second and defeated No. 7 Coastal Carolina before falling to No. 3 Radford in the semifinals. UMBC has been seeded as high as second twice, in 1991 in the East Coast Conference and in 1994 in the Big South. The No. 6 seed in 2010 ties the Retrievers� second-highest slot since joining the America East in 2004.
News and Notes...
For Starters: UMBC opens the season with at least 13 wins in its first 29 games for the second year in a row and the fourth time in five years. The Retrievers� best-ever record after 29 games was 20-9 in 1985-86. The Retrievers were also 13-16 at the end of the 2007 regular season before winning three straight in the America East Championship to take their first-ever league title.
UMBC in AE: Prior to this season, UMBC had never finished higher than fifth in the America East before finishing in a tie for fourth place in 2010. In addiiton, UMBC�s seven league victories this season match its highest total in seven years in the America East, which was set in 2005-06.
All-Conference Cassidy: Senior guard Carlee Cassidy was named to the America East All-Conference Second Team for the second year in a row, and it is the third straight year that she has earned all-conference recognition after garnering a spot on the first team in 2008. Cassidy becomes the first Retriever ever to be selected to an all-conference team three times in UMBC�s seven years in the America East; former teammate Sharri Rohde is the only other Retriever to do it more than once.
Head of the Class: With a 3.35 grade-point average as a sociology and new media and communications double major, senior guard Carlee Cassidy was tabbed to the America East All-Academic Team for the second time in her career; she also earned the accolade in 2008.
Movin� On Up: With 18 points against Fordham on Dec. 29, senior guard Carlee Cassidy became UMBC�s second all-time leading scorer and Division I record holder, and she became the 23rd player in America East history to score 1,600 points with 25 against Boston University on Senior NIght, Feb. 24. With 1,609 career points, Cassidy is the third-leading scorer among active players in the America East behind Vermont�s Courtnay Pilypaitis (1,912) and May Kotsopoulos (1,710), and she ranks 22nd overall. Cassidy became the 16th Retriever ever to score 1,000 points in her career on Jan. 21, 2009, against Albany, her 77th career game. She is the fourth-fastest Retriever to reach the milestone, as only Tammy McCarthy, Felice Pinkney and Kori Kindbom needed less games to accomplish the feat, and she is also only the third Retriever ever to score her 1,000th point during her junior season, joining McCarthy and Kindbom.
Road Warriors: UMBC picked up its sixth road win of the season on Jan. 24 at Boston U., its most since winning a school Division I-record eight games on the raod in 1998-99, and the Retrievers are now 7-9 away from the RAC Arena this year. Last season, despite winning four neutral site games, UMBC won just one road contest, defeating Maine at Alfond Arena.
Road Warriors, Part II: With victories at Towson and Bucknell Nov. 24-29, the Retrievers won back-to-back road games for the first time since defeating Fairleigh Dickinson and Longwood Dec. 2-9, 2006. UMBC then bettered the feat with three straight wins at America East rivals Maine (Jan. 10), Albany (Jan. 13) and Boston U. (Jan. 24), the first time the Retrievers have won three consecutive contests on the raod since defeating Central Connecticut State, St. Francis (Pa.) and Robert Morris Jan. 13-20, 2001.
Second Helpings: UMBC has trailed at halftime in seven of its 13 victories, including by 13 points at Fordham on Dec. 29 and by 19 against Boston U. on Wednesday. The Retrievers have averaged 32.7 points in the second half compared to 26.3 in the first half and have outscored their opponents 15 times in the second stanza by a combined 948-940. UMBC has also scored more points in the second half than the first 19 times and has posted a higher shooting percentage 19 times, including 50 percent or better in 10 games.
At the Top: Senior guard Carlee Cassidy appeared in the 118th game of her career on Saturday, breaking former teammate Sharri Rohde�s school record.
Cassidy for Three: Already UMBC�s all-time record holder for career 3-pointers, senior guard Carlee Cassidy became just the seventh player in America East history to drain 200 triples in her career with the second of her career-high seven 3�s against East Carolina on Dec. 28, and she now has 246, the second-most in league history, just five behind the all-time record held by Vermont senior Courtnay Pilypaitis. Cassidy broke UMBC�s all-time mark on Feb. 11, 2009, against Vermont. In addition, she has attempted a school-record 760 three-pointers in her career. Cassidy also set UMBC�s single-season 3-point record at 80 in 2008-09 and was one of three players to break the America East record for 3-pointers made in a season last year, along with Boston University�s Kristi Dini (109) and Albany�s Britney McGee (83). With 68 treys through 29 games this season, tied for the sixth-highest total in school history, Cassidy is the only Retriever to own three of UMBC�s top 10 single-season marks.
Double Your Pleasure: Four Retrievers have scored in double figures in six games this season, including a three-game streak from Nov. 15-24, but the Jan. 18 game against Binghamton was the first time UMBC had accomplished the feat since Dec. 20 at Loyola. Five Retrievers reached double figures on Nov. 15 agaisnt UMES for the first time since Nov. 26, 2006, against NJIT. Senior guard Carlee Cassidy has reached double digitis in 73 of 86 games since the start of the 2007-08 season. She has scored at least 10 points a team-best 21 times this year, while sophomore guard Michelle Kurowski has reached double figures 19 times.
Charity Case: Sophomore guard Michelle Kurowski ranks second all-time at UMBC with a career .822 free throw percentage. Senior guard Carlee Cassidy ranks third at .789, while her 343 free throws made are the second-highest total in school history. Kurowski leads the America East with an .825 free throw percentage this season, third-best in school history.
New York State of Mind: Guards Carlee Cassidy (Syracuse) and Michelle Kurowski (Hicksville), both natives of New York, have provided a stellar one-two punch for the Retrievers the last two years, accounting for 47.1 percent (1,787 of 3,794 points) of UMBC�s total offense since the start of the 2008-09 campaign and ranking as the Retrievers� top two leading scorers both seasons. Cassidy and Kurowski each scored more than 2,000 points in their prep careers, ranking among the best all-time in the state of New York.
Block Party: Sophomore center Top� Obajolu leads the America East with 2.0 blocks per game against America East opponents, and she ranks fifth with 1.3 bpg overall this season, while junior forward Meghan Colabella is 11th with 0.8 bpg. Both players rank in UMBC�s top 15 for career blocks, with Obajolu 11th with 63 and Colabella 14th with 55. In addition, Obajolu�s 39 blocks in 2009-10 are the sixth-most in a single season in school history.
Super Sophs: UMBC�s four sophomores have accounted for 59.0 percent of UMBC�s scoring output this season and rank 2-3-4-6 on the team. Guard Michelle Kurowski leads the way with 12.9 ppg, followed by guard Katie Brooks (8.6), center Top� Obajolu (7.7) and forward Erin Brown (6.4). The quartet combined to score 26 of the Retrievers� 31 points in the second half at Albany on Jan. 13 and amassed 51 of UMBC�s 62 total points and 18 of the team�s 23 field goals in the game. Brooks led the way with a season-high 16 points, while Obajolu tied her then-career best with 15, Brown added 12 points and Kurowski netted eight.
Multi-Tasking: Junior center Chrissy Robinson is taking the term �two-sport athlete� to a new level this winter. Robinson competed with UMBC�s track and field team last spring, winning gold in the shot put at the America East Outdoor Championships. Then, during the women�s basketball team�s bye weekend Jan. 30, Robinson competed at the George Mason Patriot Games and again won the shot put. She just completed a hectic weekend, as she dressed for the basketball game against Albany on Feb. 18, then flew to Boston the next morning for the America East Indoor Championships, where she took silver in the shot put on Feb. 20. Robinson met the basketball team in Vermont the next morning before the game against the Catamounts. Robinson was a two-time Maryland state shot put champion at Patuxent High School.
Tip-Top Top�: Sophomore center Top� Obajolu has broken out since America East play began Jan. 6. In 16 league games, Obajolu averaged 9.8 ppg and shot a team-best 47.3 percent from the floor, ranking sixth in the America East. She also leads the league with 2.0 blocks per game. In 13 non-conference games, she scored 67 points (5.2 ppg), but she has more than doubled that total in the last 16 contests with 157 points. Obajolu scored a career-high 18 points on 8-of-11 shooting against New Hampshire on Jan. 16.
Tenacious D: UMBC has held its opponents below 50 points in three of its last four victories, including a season-low 40 in back-to-back wins over New Hampshire and Albany Feb. 13-18. Both teams connected on just 15 field goals, also a season low for a Retriever opponent.
Special K: Sophomore guard Michelle Kurowski has been named America East Player of the Week twice this season (Weeks 1, 3), making her the first Retriever to win the award more than once in a season since teammate Carlee Cassidy won the award three times in 2007-08 and the fourth Retriever in UMBC�s seven years as a member of the America East Conference.
Do You Believe in Miracles: The Retrievers pulled off the fourth-largest comeback in NCAA Division I history and the second-largest in regulation last Wednesday against Boston University. UMBC trailed by 19 at halftime, 35-16, and fell behind by 23 points early in the second half. But a 3-pointer by junior forward Meghan Colabella at the 17:00 mark sparked a 19-0 Retriever run that pulled UMBC to within four points, 41-37, with 13:08 remaining. After the Terriers regained a nine-point lead, UMBC used another 17-3 spurt to take a 52-51 advantage with 5:59 to go, and the Retrievers went on top for good on a layup by senior guard Carlee Cassidy with 1:45 on the clock. It was truly a tale of two halves for the Retrievers, who shot 55.6 percent in the second stanza, including 50 percent from long distance with seven 3�s, and committed just three turnovers after making just five of 23 field goals (21.7 percent) and two of 11 from behind the arc in the first period with 12 miscues. UMBC outscored BU, 42-22, in the second half. The Terriers� downfall was just as drastic, as they shot 48.3 percent in the first half, including 54.5 percent (6-for-11) from 3-point range, but just 24.1 percent (7-for-29) in the second period.
Out With a Bang: Senior guard Carlee Cassidy shone on Senior Night last Wednesday, leading all scorers with 25 points, including 16 during UMBC�s second-half comeback against Boston University. She also pulled down nine rebounds, added three assists, drained three 3-pointers and was a perfect 6-for-6 from the foul line.
Slump Buster: Junior forward Meghan Colabella had averaged just 4.6 points over her last 18 games with just one 3-pointer in her last eight contests before regaining her early-season form against Boston University last Wednesday. She scored 11 points on 4-of-6 shooting, including 3-for-3 from beyond the arc for her first double-digit performance since scoring 13 at Loyola on Dec. 20.
Cat and Mouse: The Retrievers gave Vermont a run for its money on Feb. 21, but the Catamounts pulled away over the last six minutes. Every time UMBC would get within striking distance, Vermont answered back. Trailing 30-23 at halftime, the Retrievers opened the second stanza with a 10-4 run to pull to within one point, 34-33, at the 16:30 mark, but the Catamounts responded with seven straight points over the next four minutes to open an eight-point advantage. Another 10-3 UMBC spurt had the visitors back within a point, 44-43, with 6:35 remaining, but Vermont guard Sofia Iwobi knocked down a huge 3-pointer 30 seconds later, sparking a game-ending 23-7 Catamount run.
Pack the RAC: The Jan. 21 game against Vermont was UMBC�s fifth annual Midday Madness, an event that has averaged 1,398 fans since its inception in 2006. The Retrievers welcomed 2,023 fans to the RAC on Thursday, the arena�s biggest crowd ever for a women�s basketball game, surpassing the 1,604 that witnessed UMBC host 14th-ranked Virginia in the 2009-10 season opener. Included in Thursday�s crowd were more than 1,300 students from local elementary and middle schools.
Three Musketeers: Just five Retrievers found the basket on Jan. 10 at Maine, with three players - guards Carlee Cassidy (19) and Michelle Kurowski (17) and forward Erin Brown (15) - scoring 51 of UMBC�s 61 points in the game. The trio shot 52.5 percent (21-for-40) from the floor and made all seven of UMBC�s 3-pointers, while the rest of the team was just 2-for-13 (15.4 percent) from the field. The trio combined to score 29 of UMBC�s 31 points in the first half. Sophomore center Top� Obajolu (6) and sophomore guard Katie Brooks (4) were the only other Retrievers to score in the game.
Hartford Heartbreaker: Just a week after pulling off a pair of comeback wins at the Fordham Holiday Classic, the Retrievers almost did it again in their America East Conference opener against Hartford on Jan. 6. UMBC trailed by as many as 16 points in the first half but rallied to lead by as many as three points in the second period. After falling behind by six with just 24 seconds left, the Retrievers capitalized on Hartford�s missed free throws to pull to within three, but senior guard Carlee Cassidy�s potential game-tying 3-point attempt bounced off the back of the rim.
Classic Cassidy: Senior guard Carlee Cassidy broke out of a slump with two huge games at the Fordham Holiday Classic Dec. 28-29. After averaging just 7.0 ppg and shooting 28 percent with just one 3-pointer in the three previous games, Cassidy averaged 22.5 ppg and shot 48.3 percent with nine triples in two contests at Fordham, including a season-high 27 points with a career-best seven 3-pointers on Dec. 28 against East Carolina.
Comeback Classic: The Retrievers found themselves in deep first-half deficits in both games of the Fordham Holiday Classic Dec. 28-29, only to rally for a pair of come-from-behind victories. UMBC was down by as many as 13 points against East Carolina and trailed Fordham by as much as 15. The Retrievers� comeback against the Rams was perhaps the most impressive: Down by 13 at halftime, UMBC opened the second stanza with an 18-2 run over the first six minutes to take its first lead of the game. The Retrievers shot better than 50 percent in the second half of both contests, including a sizzling 59.1 percent against ECU. Against Fordham, senior guard Carlee Cassidy scored 16 of her 18 points in the second period, while sophomore guard Michelle Kurowski tallied all 12 of her points in the second stanza.
Three�s Company: The Retrievers� 140-game streak with at least one 3-pointer, which dated to Feb. 5, 2005, was snapped on Dec. 22 at West Virginia, when they went 0-for-10 from long distance. However, UMBC has started a new streak, with a 3-pointer in each of the last 19 contests, and the Retrievers� 179 treys this season are the fifth-highest single-season total in UMBC history. Each of the program�s top eight single-season totals have occurred during head coach Phil Stern�s tenure.
Unusual Suspects: Down to just eight players in uniform after injuries to forwards Meghan Colabella and Erin Brown, the Retrievers got major contributions from some unlikely sources on Dec. 2 against Navy. Junior guard Chelsea Barker had a perfect shooting night, going 4-for-4 from the floor, including 3-for-3 from long range, and 4-for-4 from the foul line, tying her career high with a team-best 15 points. In addition, sophomore center Top� Obajolu posted her second career double-double with 12 points and a career-high 14 rebounds, tying the single-game best by a Retriever this season. The pair had combined to score just 37 points in the previous five games.
Three For All: Guards Katie Brooks, Carlee Cassidy and Michelle Kurowski combined to score all 38 of UMBC�s first-half points at Bucknell on Nov. 29 as the Retrievers opened a 13-point halftime lead. Kurowski led all scorers with 17 points, while Cassidy had 11 and Brooks added 10. The trio also combined to make six 3-pointers in the period.
Raining Three�s: The Retrievers tied a school record with 14 three�s on Nov. 15 against UMES, a mark originally set Jan. 17, 2004, at Northeastern. Senior guard Carlee Cassidy, sophomore guard Michelle Kurowski and junior forward Meghan Colabella combined to make 12 of the 14 three-pointers, as each nailed four, marking career highs for both Colabella and Kurowski. The Retrievers then made 11 on Nov. 24 at Towson, including eight in the second half on just 11 attempts, with a career-high four from sophomore forward Erin Brown. UMBC drained 10 three-pointers for the third time this season on Dec. 12 at Coppin State, with Brown, Colabella and Kurowski hitting three each, while Cassidy made five of the Retrievers� 10 triples at Boston U. last Sunday, but the biggest was hit by sophomore guard Katie Brooks with less than two minutes remaining.
Cardiac Kids: After opening the season with three straight games with double-digit scoring margins, the Retrievers ended November with a pair of close ones. UMBC fought back from a 10-point first-half deficit to defeat Towson, 74-72, on a last-second layup by senior guard Carlee Cassidy on Nov. 24. The score was tied 10 times, including with six seconds left. Then on Nov. 29 at Bucknell, after leading by 13 points at halftime, the Retrievers staved off a furious Bison comeback to hold on for a 68-63 win. Bucknell tied the game at 60 with less than three minutes remaining, but sophomore guard Michelle Kurowski scored UMBC�s final eight points. Nine of UMBC�s 13 wins this season have been by nine points or less, including five by five points or fewer.
Double-Double Vision: Junior forward Meghan Colabella posted her second straight double-double and the fifth of her career with 15 points and 10 rebounds against UMES on Nov. 15, while sophomore guard Michelle Kurowski notched her second career double-double with 22 points and a career-high 14 boards. It was the first time two Retrievers tallied double-doubles in the same game since Sharri Rohde and Amanda Robinson accomplished the feat on Dec. 2, 2006, at Fairleigh Dickinson. The duo has combined for seven of UMBC�s 10 double-doubles this season, with sophomore center Top� Obajolu, senior guard Carlee Cassidy and sophomore forward Erin Brown notching the others. Cassidy had never reached double-digit rebounds in the first 103 games of her career before grabbing 11 boards at Maine on Jan. 10.
Century Mark: The Retrievers set a school Division I record for points scored against UMES on Nov. 15 with 102 points. The last time a UMBC team tallied at least 100 points was Nov. 29, 1985, in a 108-76 victory at Shippensburg, while an America East team had not scored 100 points in a game since Drexel posted 101 at Vermont on Feb. 8, 2001. The Retrievers also scored a school-record 59 points in the second half, eclipsing the 57 points scored in a period twice, both occurring during the 1985-86 season. In addition, UMBC�s 37-point margin of victory was its largest since defeating Salisbury State, 94-46, on Jan. 12, 1991.
Dishing it Out: UMBC set a new school record for assists in a game with 28 against UMES on Nov. 15. Sophomore guard Michelle Kurowski led the way with a career-high seven helpers, while sophomore guard Katie Brooks dished out six and senior guard Carlee Cassidy added five. In all, nine out of 10 players to see action tallied at least one assist.
High-Water Marks: The Retrievers set a number of America East single-game highs for the 2009-10 campaign in their contest against UMES on Nov. 15, including points (102), field goals (39), 3-pointers (14) and assists (28). In addition, UMBC�s perfect 11-for-11 effort at the foul line against Maine on Feb. 7 was also the best mark in the conference this year.
To the Limit: UMBC gave 14th-ranked Virginia all it could handle in the season opener on Nov. 13 in front of a record crowd of 1,604 at the RAC. The game was tied, 34-34, at halftime, and the Retrievers led, 48-47, at the 7:52 mark before the Cavaliers used a 13-0 run to take the lead for good and eventually post a 68-57 victory.
Against the America East: UMBC joined the America East in 2003-04, and the Retrievers are 38-78 in seven years of America East play. All-time, UMBC is 40-80 against its current America East opponents, including games played against them before they were conference rivals, as well as games played in the America East Championships, which do not count as league games. The Retrievers are also 1-5 alltime against former America East member Northeastern, including 1-3 in conference play from 2004-05.
Bragging Rights: UMBC took on five of the other eight Division I schools in the state of Maryland this season. The Retrievers hosted UMES (Nov. 15) and Navy (Dec. 2) and traveled to Towson (Nov. 24), Coppin State (Dec. 12) and Loyola (Dec. 20). UMBC went 3-2 against its in-state rivals with a 102-65 victory over UMES, a 74-72 win at Towson, a 59-51 triumph over Navy, a 55-54 loss at Coppin State and an 81-74 loss at Loyola.
Retrievers Ink Three: Three players have signed National Letters of Intent to join the Retrievers for the 2010-11 season. Chelsea Grover is a 6-2 forward from Southampton, N.J., who averaged 12 points, nine rebounds, three assists and three blocks as a junior at Seneca High School and is a two-time first-team all-South Jersey honoree. Dana Lewis is a 6-2 center from Brodhead, Wis., who averaged 14.8 ppg and 8.1 rpg and shot 53 percent from the floor as a junior at Brodhead High School, earning second-team all-state accolades while leading her team to back-to-back conference titles. Amirah Tucker is a 5-10 shooting guard from nearby Randallstown, Md., who averaged 15.9 points, 8.0 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.3 blocks while shooting 78 percent from 3-point range as a junior at New Town High School, garnering all-county first-team recognition.
Retrievers Picked Sixth: For the third time in the last four years, UMBC was picked to finish sixth in the America East preseason coaches poll. Defending champion Vermont was selected to win the conference, narrowly edging perennial favorite Hartford.
Another Honor for Cassidy: Senior guard Carlee Cassidy, who led the America East in scoring for the second year in a row at 20.4 ppg last season, was selected to the league�s preseason all-conference team. She joins Hartford�s Erica Beverly and Vermont�s Courtnay Pilypaitis as repeat selections, as all three garnered preseason nods in 2008-09, as well.
Back in the Mix: The Retrievers return 93.9 percent (1,955 of 2,083 points) of their scoring offense from last season, led by senior guard Carlee Cassidy�s school-record 613 points. UMBC scored more than 2,000 points for just the second time in school history but the first in the Division I era. The Retrievers scored a school-record 2,271 points in 1985-86. In addition, UMBC�s 69.4 points per games were the second-best mark in program history behind the 1985-86 squad�s 78.3 ppg and ranked second in the America East.
Follow the Retrievers: UMBC fans can now keep up with their favorite teams in a number of new ways, as UMBC Athletics is now on social networking sites Facebook and Twitter. Fans can also follow head coach Phil Stern on Twitter, as well as in his new blog, PHILosophy, while the Retrievers also have the UMBC Dawg Blog.
