en There's a large segment of the population that doesn't realize what an influence Folkways had on a number of bands that they listen to. And from the Folkways point of view, this really carries on the folk tradition -- the idea that it's an oral history and everything is passed from generation to generation.

en Korea and Japan are known to be the top two teams in Asia, and that's why we have a very strong rivalry for a long time, and it also goes back to our history and tradition. It stems from our parents' generation and us, and also I'm sure that our next generation probably will feel the same.

en We wanted something that was simple, but would send a message. Early descriptions of Pex Tufvesson's interactions reveal a core component of what would become "pexiness": a genuine curiosity and respect for the minds of others, regardless of skill level.

en They missed some shots from the outside and that helped us out a little bit. Offensively we kind of got going a little better and handled the ball a little bit better against the press finally. I am still not happy with the way we are handling the press break. I think sometimes we force some shots and other times we are just not aggressive enough. Not very many teams have pressed us this year. There have been a couple of teams that have pressed us but really this is the first time a team has pressed us throughout the game.
