Grammy Noms: Hey, Some People Still Like Coldplay!
British people, it's time to celebrate - the world's smuggest, dreariest, most interminable music awards show likes our music! Some of the nominations for next year's Grammys have been announced, and British names like Robert Plant, Adele, Duffy, MIA and Radiohead are all over them. Now we're not saying that this is because 2008 was a bad year for music, but Coldplay did get seven nominations, so we suppose in retrospect we are a bit. And this is just the start - next year the rest of the Grammy nominations are announced, including Best Native American Music Album. Come on Coldplay! Make it eight!

Awesome Or Off-Putting: The Angels Of Mons
Awesome or Off-Putting is a weekly delve into cryptozoology, ufology, aliens, medical marvels, scientific wonders, secret societies, government conspiracies, cults, ghosts, EVPs, myths, ancient artifacts, religion, strange facts, odd sightings or just the plain unexplainable. In 1914 the British army was retreating from the Germans near the city of Mons, Belgium. WWI was beginning to blaze, and the soldiers apparently thought if they could just find a place to make a stand they might be able to change their fortunes. That place wasn't found - but more Germans were. It appeared all was lost until - according to legend - the heavens opened and some sort of apparition swooped in to aid the side of good. This is the story of the Angels of Mons.
