Dear Friends & Family,
Xenon, the beloved and beautiful CATALYST cat, died this week. We are sad.
I am sure there are many other good things that happened but that's mostly what's on my mind right now.
Oh, and the shiitake log we got at the Pop-Up Farmers Market from the Bio Brothers is fruiting the most delicious mushrooms ever. Fried in butter, they are some consolation.

Wed, Feb. 27, 7p.
Utah Museum of Fine Arts, 410 Campus Center Drive. Free.
utahfilmcenter.org
As a complement to their current exhibit, "Bierstadt to Warhol: American Indians in the West," the UMFA is partnering with the Utah Film Center to present three films created by Native American filmmakers whose work represents an evolution of the Native American storytelling tradition.
On the Ice: In this engrossing and suspenseful feature film debut by filmmaker Andrew Okpeaha MacLean, two teenage boys who have grown up like brothers go about their lives in the comfortable claustrophobia of an isolated Alaskan town. Early one morning, on a seal hunt with another teenager, an argument between the three boys quickly escalates into a tragic accident. Bonded by their dark secret, the two best friends are forced to create one fabrication after another in order to survive. The shocked boys stumble through guilt-fueled days, avoiding the suspicions of their community as they weave a web of deceit. With their future in the balance, they are forced to explore the limits of friendship and honor.
First of three films in a series. Also: Native Shorts on Mar. 27; Grab on Apr. 24.

What is Ben talking about? Aggressive peepers!? This very morning I crouched down to talk with my birds and the Protester came right up, peeping. He stood close enough and still enough to let me ruffle his breast feathers with my fingers. I stroked his wings, too. He likes the attention. The ladies are much more aloof. They don't let me touch them...( read more).

The past becomes the present this week and as a result, daily life is likely to turn into a time warp. Wednesday feels like Monday. Friday feels like last year. And tomorrow feels like yesterday. Try not to let this temporal dislocation throw you into a tizzy. Deadlines are still within reach, particularly if you accommodate the need for greater latitude and leeway on what's due when. Staying agile - physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually - is essential in handling the erratic one-step-forward-two-steps-back rhythm of this time warp...( read more).

Major Improvements coming to 300 East; three-month closure
300 East between 400 and 500 South will close March 1-May 29 for major improvements that coincide with the completion of Salt Lake City's new Public Safety Building. While temporarily awkward, the results should be worth it:
* The installation of public art on the corner of 300 East at 500 South
* 300 East will be narrowed to one lane in each direction; bike lanes will be added in each direction
* A mid-street island will be added to create an inviting and functional atmosphere for future festivals and events
* Rain gardens will be added along the sidewalk, helping to reduce harmful runoff
* Trees and additional landscaping will be planted
* Terraced walls will be added along the new building to create more public space and seating
* A mid-block crossing will be added to connect the new public plaza to Library Square
