NICK CAVE UNDERLAND DANCE
"Musician Nick Cave is having a bit of a moment. His classic albums are being reissued. He’s collaborating with electronic guru U.N.K.L.E. He’s working on a new film based on the Pinocchio tale. And now, he's getting the dance treatment. Choreographer Stephen Petronio joins us to talk about his new piece, “Underland,” which weaves together eight of Cave’s songs into a single score."

“Four years of hard work in the darkness, and a month of delight in the sun - such is the Cicada’s life. We must not blame him for the noisy triumph of his song. For four years he has dug the earth with his feet, and then suddenly he is dressed in exquisite raiment, provided with wings that rival the bird’s, and bathed in heat and light. What cymbals can be loud enough to celebrate his happiness, so hardly earned, and so very, very short?” -Jean Henri Fabre

DAMMIT, PHIL!
Six more weeks of winter - Stop looking for your shadow!
From CNN-
"CNN meteorologist Chad Meyers, citing stormfax.com, said Phil is correct 39 percent of the time. The U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration goes even further, saying Phil has "no predictive skill." (editors note: that's BS.)
The tradition behind the famous groundhog goes back to medieval times when there was a superstition that all hibernating animals emerged from their caves and dens to check the weather on Candlemas, which is halfway between the winter solstice in December and the vernal equinox in March.
Seeing their shadows would mean winter would go on for another six weeks, and they could go back to sleep, according to the tradition.
The tradition came to America with the early German settlers who arrived in Pennsylvania."
