The Gophers men's basketball team is doin' it. The Army's doin' it. Everybody's doing the Harlem Shake, the latest group-dance craze to go viral, making "Gangnam Style" look sooooo last year. And unlike many trends, this one's reached Minnesota in two weeks, not the usual two years.

The dance dates back to early-1980s Harlem, but it took the new song of the same name by electronic dance music producer Baauer to draw the international masses to a frenzy of online copycat competition. More than 12,000 versions have been uploaded to YouTube with 44 million views and counting.

It doesn't take much skill, just the willingness to frantically flail your limbs and pelvis, in a group, on camera. Typically one person among a staid gathering starts gyrating madly for 15 seconds or so, then suddenly everyone joins in and it's chaos. Unlike a flash mob, there's no attempt to coordinate movements. It's definitely freestyle.

When the Gophers broke out into a long-limbed version of the Shake to Ke$ha's "Die Young" in the locker room following their win Thursday night, coach Tubby Smith joined in the revelry, but his dancing was so relatively refined, it's doubtful he's in on the fad. If he is, you can call him the Fred Astaire of Harlem shakers.

Kim and Kris trial set for May Is there a finale in sight for the seemingly never-ending Kim Kardashian-Kris Humphries divorce? A judge on Friday finally set a trial date for May 6. The divorce has been brewing since October 2011, when Kardashian filed to end her marriage to Brooklyn Nets player Humphries after only 72 days. It's been held up as Team Humphries makes the argument for an annulment, which would have to be granted on grounds of fraud.

BOREDOM AND COLD: Six contestants braved butt-numbing cold and boredom to win an ice pole-sitting contest in Sweden. Two women and four men shared the $3,100 prize for remaining on 8.25-foot-tall blocks of ice during the 48-hour contest. Competitors said the worst part was not the cold -- temperatures dipped below -18 F -- but the monotony. They were allowed to come down for 10-minute toilet breaks every other hour.
