1. Inches

   Inches is an album by Les Savy Fav. Initial pressings of the CD came with a DVD featuring live performances, music videos and photos. The album is a collection of singles from 1995–2004, containing many songs that were previously available on vinyl only. Among the tracks is "The Sweat Descends" which later became a single and was placed on several Best of 2004 rankings. "Meet Me in the Dollar Bin" is a song about one-hit wonders and bands that fall out of style. The song "Reformat" is recorded in two versions: a live version from a concert with fans providing extra vocals and a six-minute 'radio play' about a submarine captain who is executed by guillotine in a football stadium.

4. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate:

   Today is Groundhog Day, when the Groundhog, Punxsutawney Phil lets us know if there will be more winter or an early spring ahead of us. This interesting tradition started in 1887! based on many immigrant folklores from European countries. If Phil sees his shadow and returns to his hole, he has predicted six more weeks of winter-like weather. If Phil does not see his shadow, he has predicted an “early spring." After getting buried in 36 inches of snow in a single monster snowstorm, we surely deserve an early spring, as early as tomorrow!
