Nick c - Toms river nj - 3/20/2010

dylan meinhart - florida - 7/22/2010
Accuracy, look, firm flex. great overall head.
I got it strung with landing strip and it is the most accurate head i have ever used in my 6 years of lacrosse. i have had countless offers from people wanting to buy it. the best head i have ever had. even better than the Helix.
NIzzoli23 - IDAHO - 2/19/2011
Release Weight Face-Off's Off-set
Strength, definately Stringing Holes
Very good head, but weak. had it for about a full season until it broke in the middle at the top, :( but was worth the time and money.
Gordon Nelson - Lake Tapps, Washington - 3/14/2011
great for face off mids, pearl for attackmen. super dirty if you string it right.
it warps if used for faceoffs after a moth or so.more stringing holes would be great.
this is a reliable head, and is great for offensive men who frequently have the ball. if its strung correctly, its a sick head.however, if its strung sloppily it sucks..A LOT. i highly recommend you get this strung professionaly if you are not that experienced of a stringer.
rybread - wilmington, de - 3/15/2011
Absolutley amazing. it has a great pinch, very accurate, flexes with your shot, and looks sexy.
Just add more stringing holles its a little harder to string than most heads
Chris - A Lacrosse Field - 3/16/2011
its a good all around head i have a good shot with it and crazy accuracy would reccomend to anyone
maybe a little stiffer
its swwweeeeet
kallen currie - shellbrook sk. - 3/17/2011
Lightweight Accurate Pinch Seems Durable
Could be a little stiffer, but it's pretty much fine how it is.
Very good head so far, one of the lightest I've used.
Ryan - U.S.A. - 7/21/2011
WIcked good accuracy Incredible design Chicks dig it.
Delivery Speed. It took FOREVER to get to my house...
Gourgeous head. Reccomended to everyone!
Noah - St. Louis - 9/14/2011
Durability, only bends never breaks. Holes are perfectly spaced. overall amazing
Had this head for about 4 years and still in great condition
Lax - Vic - 1/13/2012
this head is great very light and great for most everything.
I've had one for 2 years and it's just broke. Maybe some more stiffness.
overall is great but needs more stiffness.
Thomas Wilson - Apex, NC - 3/12/2012
this head is great for any position(except of corse goalie). i personally play x, both way middie and face of on the occasion. this head works great for me in all of these scenarios, and i would recomend this head to anyone and everyone.
maybe a tad bit longer lasting.
I will never even consider using another type of head ever.
Kai - Lynbrook, NY - 4/21/2012
Good for GB's and if strung right- really improves shot speed and placement.
Tends to warp quickly but if your not taking a crazy amount of face offs or playing in super heat it'll be fine.
Great head overall. Excellent for attackmen or middies. Overall just one sexy head!
Josh - Milwaukee, WI - 5/7/2012
the pinch on the head, it's light,
stringing holes, warping, and durability
I used this head in a game 10 times and it's not a great head. It's hard to string it and the head snapped at the first stringing hole after playing catch in warm weather.
Scott - Ohio - 4/4/2013
Strength, pinch size is tighter than starter heads, but not too tight that an intermediate player can't adapt.
Bought for my 12 year old intermediate player. I didn't think it would make much difference and was concerned about the pinch, but his catching is still good and there is a noticable amount of snap on his shots.
Cole - Grand Rapids, MI - 4/5/2013
Flexibility, Pinch
Stiffness, Durability
Had it for 2 years then cracked it in mild weather, loved the head

Gov. Dannel Malloy announced Thursday morning that President Barack Obama has approved a 100 percent cost share for 10 days of emergency power restoration and emergency public transportation assistance for the four shoreline counties that have already received a major disaster declaration.
"As we continue with the recovery process from Hurricane Sandy, I am very appreciative of President Obama's commitment to the State of Connecticut and its residents," Gov. Malloy said. "We continue to work to get the state back to normal following this devastating storm."
According to Malloy, the additional assistance includes things such as reimbursement of the National Guard in State Active Duty to conduct emergency power restoration, emergency public transportation, or direct essential support to these missions.
The 100 percent cost share means that, for limited categories of work performed during the first 10 days of the disaster, state and local agencies will not have to pay the usual 25 percent cost share.
In the next few days, FEMA will be providing further guidance to state officials on what activities are covered under the adjustment.

Little Boy Calls Himself 'Magneto Man', Breaks Computers, Is Proud, Thinks He's Famous
Joe Falciatano III (of the Falciatano dynasty) is 12-years old and has broken 12 computers in his school's computer lab. They thought it had something to do with magnetism, but it's now believed to be a static issue related to his over-insulated shoes. Personally, I think it's because his mom banged Magneto while the X-Men were on vacation. That's just my theory though (which is correct). He even calls himself "Magneto Man", despite being 12-years old and unable to produce facial hair. Finally some brainiac, whose intelligence is undoubtedly up there with the likes of Einstein, suggested he wear an anti-static wrist strap. Lo and behold the problems stopped! Now, call me crazy, but why did it take 12 broken computers to finally get the kid to wear a freaking wrist strap? Wow, computer lab teacher. Wow. If a kid broke one computer in my lab they'd be wearing a lot more than a wrist strap. Namely a size 12 Puma up their ass. I love kids.

text: By Jeremy Newcombe Internships are a (sometimes unfortunate) prerequisite to breaking into many established fields in today's job market. They can be tough; hard work, unappreciative bosses, and no money. Internships can be very useful though, if you use them properly and aren't afraid to stand up for yourself in certain circumstances. The first thing to remember is that internships are meant to be mutually beneficial. That is, actually benefiting you and your employer. Too often you hear stories about interns being sent to get coffee or pick up the dry-cleaning, and this, frankly, should never be the case. Interns are not free labour. Even if you're not getting paid in dollars you should be getting compensated for your time. You need experience, training, contacts, and support from your employers, and you shouldn't settle for less. This has even become a legal issue in the United States, and hopefully the situation is improving, but that is a worst-case scenario. If you feel like you're not doing enough relevant work, say so, and most employers will be receptive. Be respectful but firm in insisting you should be getting relevant experience in lieu of payment. You deserve it. The second thing to keep in mind is that old adage "you get out what you put in." In my own experience, I learned a great deal during my internship because I showed genuine interest in things that were going on, even in other departments. As a result I became friendly with people working in many fields and gained real, valuable experience and knowledge because of this. Now, that's not to say you need to be obsessively keen—that's no fun for anyone—but a healthy interest in what's around you and a good work ethic really can make the difference. Lastly, know your limits and stick to them. Don't stretch yourself too thin if you know you can't afford a full time position that doesn't pay well. Find a sponsored internship though your school or government (they exist, and in higher frequency than you might think) or find a part-time position that you can supplement with something else a few shifts a week. Realize that you're not working for the money and don't consent to working extremely long hours or in stressful conditions if you don't think it's worth your time. Treat yourself with respect, and ask that your employer do so as well. Stick to your principals and enter into an internship with an eager attitude and an open mind. If you do that they can be very useful (and certainly enjoyable) for both you and the people you work for. Jeremy lives in beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia with his wife and dog. He spends a lot of time reading, writing, and riding his bicycle, though usually not at the same time. His most recent passion is training his pup in agility, and while she may not be a champion (yet) they have a lot of fun together. article internship

After a deflating 100-99 overtime loss to the New York Knick, the Chicago Bulls find themselves slipping in the Tom Ziller's NBA Power Rankings for the first time in a very long time.
According to Ziller, the San Antonio Spurs -- who still have three fewer wins than the Bulls -- grab the top spot, followed by the Bulls at No. 2. Chicago has now lost 4 of its last 7 games after having lost only 10 games all season. Click here for the full power rankings.
Rank | Team | Record | Last Week | SB Nation Blog |
1. | San Antonio Spurs | 40-14 | W: CLE, BOS, NO, UTA | Pounding The Rock |
This is the second double-digit win streak of the season for the Spurs. Expect some more analysis downplaying San Antonio's playoff chances based on last year's first-round exit; please remember that Manu Ginobili busted up his arm entering that series. He looks healthy now. This team has always been different when he's healthy. | ||||
2. | Chicago Bulls | 43-14 | W: BOS; L: HOU, NY | Blog-a-Bull |
I secretly hope some fool tries out the "Bulls are better without Derrick Rose" argument just because I've always wanted to see a live human self-ridicule himself into oblivion. | ||||
3. | Oklahoma City Thunder | 41-15 | W: TOR; L: MEM, MIA, IND | Welcome To Loud City |
We told you that the Thunder's Hell Week wasn't over after they beat the Heat and Bulls! The Thunder got busted up three straight times. Why do we have them ahead of Miami given last week's result? The Thunder looked more convincing in their win in the home-and-home than Miami did in its victory. #science | ||||
4. | Miami Heat | 40-15 | W: PHI, OKC, DET; L: MEM | Peninsula Is Mightier |
I still have not forgiven Udonis Haslem for losing the braids. |

Game for The Big Quiz?
The Straits Times-Ministry of Education National Current Affairs Quiz, or The Big Quiz, aims to promote interest in current affairs and various issues, with a local perspective.
Co-organised by The Straits Times and the Ministry of Education for the second year, it is supported by the Singapore Press Holdings Foundation, the presenting sponsor; and Shell, the quiz's innovation partner.
In the run up to the quiz rounds, a series of primers on current affairs will run on Mondays in the Opinion section of The Straits Times, while editors and correspondents of The Straits Times will also give talks on various issues of the day.
In the new Shell-sponsored Thought Leadership Question segment, a question will be posed alongside primers for first-year pre-university students and Year 5 Integrated Programme students from 24 participating schools to respond to.
From April 8, the best 10 responses to each question will be uploaded to Singapolitics.sg for voting. The top three responses with the most votes will each win $200 vouchers. The best overall essay over the whole series of questions will win $1,000 vouchers.
The primers, talks and sponsored segment will be capped off by four quiz rounds in which teams from participating schools will vie for the top prize: a championship trophy and $5,000 cash.
The Big Quiz is open to first-year pre-university students and Year 5 Integrated Programme students from 24 participating schools.

CFE Fund
The Cities for Financial Empowerment Fund's mission is to leverage municipal engagement to improve the financial stability of low and moderate income households by embedding financial empowerment strategies into local government infrastructure. The Fund works with mayoral administrations and those interested in supporting them to actually "pull triggers" -- and measures its success accordingly.
JPMorgan Chase Foundation's $1.15 million matching seed grant supports CFE Fund's Bank On 2.0—a new national approach to providing safe, affordable banking products and services to millions in need. The initiative builds on existing Bank On and other access to banking programs to integrate safe banking opportunities into municipal social service programs.
The CFE Fund awarded In-Kind Technical Assistance grants to seven additional cities to implement Financial Empowerment Centers. This effort will build upon the launch of last year's $16.2 million initiative, in partnership with Bloomberg Philanthropies, to replicate NYC's Financial Empowerment Centers.
CFE Fund Webinar Series
CFE's "Twelve in Twelve" Webinar Series! The CFE Innovation Center's monthly webinar series highlights successful municipal programs from each of the 12 CFE Coalition member cities. Over each month of 2013, CFE Coalition cities took turns highlighting one of their programs ... breaking down not just the program basics, but also the challenges and opportunities behind their program. Listen to any in the whole series now!

Reviews for Honey-Orange Broccoli Slaw(7)
Sort By :
I used 1/2 T less oil and it worked out well.
Orange is not one of my favorite flavors, but this salad is very good. I used both raisins and dried cranberries and left out the almonds. I will make this again.
Excellent! But I just had to replace the raisins with Craisins for Thanksgiving :)
I don't know how to edit what I just wrote. I want to confess that I switched out the raisins for dried cranberries, and to be sure to add the almonds right befor serving, lest they get soggy.
Wonderful! I added a small can of mandarin oranges (drained), and switched out the raisins for dried cranberries. You could add chicken or pork for protein, or even surimi, and adjust the dressing accordingly. But I made this as is (except for the fruit I added) and it was great. Be sure to add the almonds right before serving, lest they get soggy. Thanks!

Deubiquitinating Enzyme Ubp6 Functions Noncatalytically to Delay Proteasomal Degradation
Cell, Volume 127, Issue 1, 6 October 2006, Pages 99-111
John Hanna, Nathaniel A. Hathaway, Yoshiko Tone, Bernat Crosas, Suzanne Elsasser, Donald S. Kirkpatrick, David S. Leggett, Steven P. Gygi, Randall W. King and Daniel Finley
SummaryUbiquitin chains serve as a recognition motif for the proteasome, a multisubunit protease, which degrades its substrates into polypeptides while releasing ubiquitin for reuse. Yeast proteasomes contain two deubiquitinating enzymes, Ubp6 and Rpn11. Rpn11 promotes protein breakdown through its degradation-coupled activity. In contrast, we show here that Ubp6 has the capacity to delay the degradation of ubiquitinated proteins by the proteasome. However, delay of degradation by Ubp6 does not require its catalytic activity, indicating that Ubp6 has both deubiquitinating activity and proteasome-inhibitory activity. Delay of degradation by Ubp6 appears to provide a time window allowing gradual deubiquitination of the substrate by Ubp6. Rpn11 catalyzes en bloc chain removal, and Ubp6 interferes with degradation at or upstream of this step, so that degradation delay by Ubp6 is accompanied by a switch in the mode of ubiquitin chain processing. We propose that Ubp6 regulates both the nature and magnitude of proteasome activity.

Ubiquitin Chains Are Remodeled at the Proteasome by Opposing Ubiquitin Ligase and Deubiquitinating Activities

Bernat Crosas, John Hanna, Donald S. Kirkpatrick, Dan Phoebe Zhang, Yoshiko Tone, Nathaniel A. Hathaway, Christa Buecker, David S. Leggett, Marion Schmidt, Randall W. King, Steven P. Gygi and Daniel Finley
SummaryThe ubiquitin ligase Hul5 was recently identified as a component of the proteasome, a multisubunit protease that degrades ubiquitin-protein conjugates. We report here a proteasome-dependent conjugating activity of Hul5 that endows proteasomes with the capacity to extend ubiquitin chains. hul5 mutants show reduced degradation of multiple proteasome substrates in vivo, suggesting that the polyubiquitin signal that targets substrates to the proteasome can be productively amplified at the proteasome. However, the products of Hul5 conjugation are subject to disassembly by a proteasome-bound deubiquitinating enzyme, Ubp6. A hul5 null mutation suppresses a ubp6 null mutation, suggesting that a balance of chain-extending and chain-trimming activities is required for proper proteasome function. As the association of Hul5 with proteasomes was found to be strongly stabilized by Ubp6, these enzymes may be situated in proximity to one another. We propose that through dynamic remodeling of ubiquitin chains, proteasomes actively regulate substrate commitment to degradation.

A Ubiquitin Stress Response Induces Altered Proteasome Composition
Cell, Volume 129, Issue 4, 18 May 2007, Pages 747-759
John Hanna, Alice Meides, Dan Phoebe Zhang and Daniel Finley
SummaryUbiquitin-dependent protein degradation is essential for cells to survive many environmental stresses. Thus, it may be necessary to buffer ubiquitin and proteasome pools against fluctuation. Proteasome levels are tightly regulated, and proteasome deficiency stimulates a stress response. Here we report a novel pathway of cellular response to ubiquitin depletion. Unlike proteasome stress, ubiquitin stress does not upregulate proteasome abundance. Instead, ubiquitin stress alters proteasome composition. The proteasome-associated deubiquitinating enzyme Ubp6, which spares ubiquitin from proteasomal degradation, is induced by ubiquitin deficiency. This enhances loading of proteasomes with Ubp6, thereby altering proteasome function. A catalytically inactive mutant of Ubp6 fails to recycle ubiquitin and also inhibits proteasome function directly, thus inducing both ubiquitin stress and proteasome stress. These results show that homeostatic control of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway can be achieved through signal-dependent, subunit-specific regulation of the proteasome, and indicate a dual role of Ubp6 in regulating ubiquitin levels and proteasome function.

- We have identified proteins that are abundant in affinity-purified proteasomes, but absent from proteasomes as previously defined because elevated salt concentrations dissociate them during purification. The major components are a deubiquitinating enzyme (Ubp6), a ubiquitin-ligase (Hul5), and an uncharacterized protein (Ecm29). Ecm29 tethers the proteasome core particle to the regulatory particle. Proteasome binding activates Ubp6 300-fold and is mediated by the ubiquitin-like domain of Ubp6, which is required for function in vivo. Ubp6 recognizes the proteasome base and its subunit Rpn1, suggesting that proteasome binding positions Ubp6 proximally to the substrate translocation channel. ubp6Δ mutants exhibit accelerated turnover of ubiquitin, indicating that deubiquitination events catalyzed by Ubp6 prevent translocation of ubiquitin into the proteolytic core particle.

'Flight of the Conchords' is grounded
Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie, who starred in and co-created HBO's "Flight of the Conchords," say there won't be a third season of the show.
In a statement posted on the Conchords web site Thursday, McKenzie, Clement and co-creator James Bobin say they "like the way the show ended" and are leaving it at that. They've spoken in the past about the difficulty of writing songs to fit the show's episodes -- which contributed to the 16-month gap between the first and second season on HBO.
Here's the full statement from the Conchords site:
"We've noticed the less we say about the future of the show, the more people want to talk about it, so in an effort to reverse this trend we are today announcing that we won't be returning for a 3rd season. We're very proud of the two seasons we made and we like the way the show ended. We'd like to thank everyone who helped make the show and also everyone who watched it. While the characters Bret and Jemaine will no longer be around, the real Bret and Jemaine will continue to exist."While I would have loved to see more of the Conchords on HBO, I have to respect the fact that Clement, McKenzie and Bobin are happy with how they went out and won't try to milk the show any further. And we'll always have "Hiphopopotamus vs. Rhymenoceros."

I'm devastated.
PLEASE say it isnt so! Great, instant legen- wait for it- dary series like this get whacked or "decided" to end yet botched abortions like Scrubs go on and on and on,,I guess Billy Joel said it best,,Only the Good Die Young!
"Scrubs" is just as good as "Flight of the Conchords".
Not sure how you can love one and hate on the other. They're both SO GOOD!
Anyway, I respect the boys for not wanting the trouble of doing another season of the show. And it did end pretty hilariously -- out of NYC and back in NZ.
I think he meant that "Scrubs" was a good show that just went on for waaaay too long and became painfully un-funny in its present incarnation.
While I'm sad to see FOTC go, I'm glad it went out on a high note.
I'm very happy to hear this news. As much as I'll miss new episodes of the show, British television has shown us that making limited, quality series where the writing remains strong is much better than keeping a property on life support simply because it is popular. Now these guys can work on some other interesting, creative and entertaining project.
Although I am sad that there will be no more of the season, I am glad that they've stopped it where they left it. It was a great run. A GREEEEAAAAT run. I completely agree that shows like The Office (U.S. version) have gone on far too long whereas The Office (U.K. original) stopped just where it needed too. We can just watch both seasons of this wonderful show over and over....
What a sad day for comedy! FOTC was probably the most original comedy on TV! Absolutely hilarious!
And I'm really sick of people who stop liking shows for really no reason other than "it went on too long". Yes, some shows really run out of steam (Simpsons), but not everything. Stop thinking it's cool to dislike a show after 3 years.
People always say "Scrubs" went on too long. I ask if they've watched it, and they say "Not in 5 seasons". So how the hell would you know???
To reply to replies from my comment, no, I meant Scrubs DID go on way too long, like after the first episode! I never liked it, but for those "Scrubbies" who did, -hey, I respect your opinion, but it just goes to show that some people even like mushrooms too, so liking botched abortion Scrubs doesnt prove anything! As it were, FOTC has died an OHH TOO SOON death, so there!
I respect their decision to end the show where it is, but I really hope that they stay together and keep doing New Zealand satirical folk music (as crowded a genre as that is) instead of more solo, 'serious' stuff like Jemaine in Gentlemen Broncos.

For my last article, I shared with you that I have been developing a new professional relationship with my podiatrist. Unfortunately, I had to go back to see him this week for a shot to my right foot to try to control the severe pain I have been experiencing for about six months.
During this visit, my podiatrist again closed the door "to talk." This time, he wanted to understand if the government's failure to pass deficit reduction legislation was going to affect his Medicare reimbursements or EHR meaningful use incentive payments.
My response went something like this:
It is unclear if the two percent across-the-board reduction in Medicare mandated under the sequestration alternative by the Budget Control Act will affect the HITECH Electronic Health Records (EHR) Incentive Program.
However, we all know that the HITECH Act-authorized Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Program is essential to move our nation toward achieving timely system-wide adoption and Meaningful Use of EHRs. This program serves a critical role in the nation's healthcare transformation efforts started by President George W. Bush and continued by President Barack Obama, enabling investment in health information technologies (IT) that are essential to the transformation of our healthcare delivery system.
Meaningful Use of electronic health records and health information exchanges (HIEs) are essential components contributing to the transformation of America's healthcare system and controlling costs long-term. Previous Congresses and Administrations—under the leadership of both political parties—have recognized the enormous potential value of health IT. Many bipartisan leaders agree that this foundational program merits continued congressional support and must be preserved.
HIMSS appreciates the difficulty and seriousness of the federal budget challenge facing the Congress and the hard work of all the Members of the Congressional Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction, often called the "Supercommittee." Regrettably, the Supercommittee was unable to reach consensus on how to achieve $1.2 trillion in deficit reduction over ten years, and so the across-the-board "sequestration" spending reductions will be automatically triggered unless Congress can otherwise comply with the requirements of the Budget Control Act of 2011.
Under the automatic sequestration process, Medicare provider and health plan payments will face across-the-board reductions of up to two percent starting in 2013. The automatic Medicare cuts are reductions in payments to doctors, hospitals and other healthcare providers. The trigger does not include any direct cuts to Medicare benefits. In addition, Congress is still faced with the situation of fixing the Medicare Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR) that will be triggered in January 2012; $300 billion will be required in order to avoid an additional 29.5 percent reduction in Medicare physician reimbursement rates.
HIMSS recognizes that rapidly escalating healthcare costs and the way America pays for healthcare are major components of the government's expenditures problems. However, HIMSS cautions against solutions that just shift spending from one part of the healthcare system to another, or that do not consider long-term implications.
Health information technology is the most promising investment America can make not only to improve the quality of care but for containment of national healthcare costs. HIMSS encourages Congress to continue its strong bipartisan support for health information technology.
What concerns do you have now that the Supercommittee has failed to reach a deal? What do you think is going to happen in 2012?
Let's hope the government can figure out how to continue progress in transforming healthcare and that I don't need to see my podiatrist anytime soon!

It would be inaccurate to call the Berkshires—the rural, mountainous region of western Massachusetts—an undiscovered vacation spot. After all, the Berkshires has been a popular summer hideaway for well-heeled New Yorkers and Bostonians since the mid-19th century, when city folk flocked to the area in the summer for its restorative mountain breezes and natural springs. But compared to Massachusetts's other tourist hotspots (Boston, Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, and Nantucket), the Berkshires has a lower, softer profile: It's well-known regionally, but it's not a marquee resort destination.
The Berkshires's appeal chiefly lies in its juxtaposition of sophistication and rusticity. In the course of a day, it's possible to hike the state's tallest peak, view world-class art, dine at restaurants that rival any of Manhattan or Boston's best, and take in a performance featuring stars of music, dance, film, television, and/or Broadway. But why jam it all into one day when you don't have to? The Berkshires, after all, is a place for rest and relaxation, as well as recreation.
When people say, "the Berkshires," they're actually referring to a few separate but intertwined entities. First, there is Berkshire County, the westernmost county in Massachusetts, which encompasses 32 towns as it runs along the New York border from Connecticut to Vermont. The name also refers to the area's defining geologic feature—the Berkshire Mountains—actually the southern continuation of Vermont's Green Mountains. Primarily though, when people say "the Berkshires," they are describing an area bound by its high concentration of cultural, historical, and recreational activities.
"You could spend a week in the Berkshires and still not see all there is to see," says Barbara Dowling, curator of Naumkeag, the historic house and garden in Stockbridge, Massachusetts.
She's not wrong, but I had to start somewhere.
North Adams And Williamstown
After renting a car (chip in the extra few bucks for a GPS), I decided to wend my way through the Berkshires from north to south starting with the neighboring townships of North Adams and Williamstown. Both are college towns. (Williamstown is home to Williams College, and North Adams has the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts.) Both lie in the shadow of Mt. Greylock, the state's highest peak at 3,491 feet. And both are home to world-class art institutions. But Williamstown is genteel to North Adams's funky, blue-collar casualness.
What to See: First stop in North Adams has to be MASS MoCA (Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art, 87 Marshall St., 413-662-2111, massmoca.org). Housed in a complex of restored factory buildings in downtown North Adams, it is the nation's largest center devoted to contemporary art: 110,000 square feet of gallery space, with a single gallery running the length of a football field; an outdoor cinema with a 50-foot-wide movie screen and a 70-millimeter projector; and two performance courtyards, one of which spans 22,500 square feet. In all, the campus spans 13 acres—or about one-third—of North Adams's downtown. On the walls this summer is Badlands: New Horizons in Landscape, a mixed media exhibit looking at land usage, environmental politics, and the relativity of aesthetic beauty.
Just 15 minutes west on Route 2, Williamstown boasts its own first-class art museums: The Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute (225 South St., 413-458-2303, clarkart.edu) and The Williams College Museum of Art (15 Lawrence Hall Dr., Suite 2, 413-597-2429, wcma.org). Unlike Mass MoCA, these museums devote much of their gallery space to established masters rather than up-and-coming provocateurs.
The Clark opened in 1955 and is named for Singer sewing-machine heir, Robert Sterling, and his wife, Francine. Originally, the museum was built to house their extensive collection of French Impressionist art. But in the decades since, the museum has acquired impressive holdings of American and European paintings, drawings, sculpture, and photography. The museum is also renowned for its collections of English silver and decorative arts and its world-class art-history library, which is open to the public.
Smaller in scale, but no less impressive is The Williams College Museum of Art. The WCMA is home to 5,500 works in the American collection alone, including pieces by Winslow Homer, Georgia O'Keeffe, and Edward Hopper, as well as ever-expanding collections of antiquities and African art.
Sure, the galleries are inspiring, but the best views in the Berkshires will always be of the Berkshires. And there is no better vantage point than the summit of Mt. Greylock. Part of the 12,500-acre Mt. Greylock State Reservation, the state's highest peak provides 90-mile views in all directions. Because of road repairs, the summit is not accessible by car until 2009, but the hiking and mountain biking trails, which form a section of the Appalachian Trail, remain open. The best points of access are Greylock Glen in Adams or Haley Farm in Williamstown.
No trip to the Berkshires in summer would be complete without a visit to the Williamstown Theatre Festival (62 Center for Theatre and Dance of Williams College, 1000 Main St., wtfestival.org). Broadway and Hollywood converge in the Berkshires for this summer-long festival. Performances this year include Anton Chekhov's Three Sisters and a revival of the rom-com musical She Loves Me. Stars already confirmed include Kate Burton of Grey's Anatomy, SNL's Darrell Hammond, and Ed's Tom Cavanagh.
Where to Sleep: For an exceptional experience, book a stay at The Porches Inn at MASS MoCA (231 River St., 413-664-0400, porches.com) in North Adams. Located across the street from the museum in renovated Victorian row houses, the Porches is a perfect blend of quaint charm and modern convenience. There are beadboard walls and ornately carved banisters, but also free wi-fi, a year-round outdoor heated lap pool, and sumptuous continental breakfast.
Where to Shop: Stroll through downtown North Adams. Stores like Persnickety Toys (13 Eagle St., 413-662-2990) reveal the hip quotient in this working-class town. In preppy Williamstown, nearly all the shopping is contained on Spring Street, where you'll find furniture, rare books, and more at Library Antiques (70 Spring St., 413-458-3436,libraryantiques.com) and unexpected gift items at Where'd You Get That!? (100 Spring St., 413-458-2206, wygt.com).
Pittsfield, the government seat of Berkshire County, lies south of Williamstown and has been enjoying a renewed vibrancy downtown.
What to See: The Colonial Theatre (111 South St., 413-997-4444, thecolonialtheatre.org), a recently renovated 1903 vaudeville theater, now hosts national touring productions and concerts.
The Berkshire Museum (39 South St., 413-443-7171, berkshiremuseum.org) is a must-stop for families traveling with curious little ones. A mixture of natural science, local history, and art, the museum includes an aquarium, a dinosaur and paleontology gallery, exhibits featuring works by Norman Rockwell and Hudson River School painters, and a gallery of Alexander Calder-designed toys, including replicas kids can actually play with.
Also worth a visit is Arrowhead (780 Holmes Rd., 413-442-1793, mobydick.org), Herman Melville's one-time farm located just outside of the downtown. Melville lived here from 1850-1863, during which time he wrote Moby Dick and several other works. The house is a registered National Historic Landmark, and tours are available from Memorial Day to Columbus Day.
Just west of Pittsfield, in the tiny hamlet of Hancock, lies Hancock Shaker Village (34 Lebanon Mountain Rd., 413-443-0188, hancockshakervillage.org). Here you can experience the grace and simplicity of the Shakers on 1,200-acres of pasture, forest, and farmland with 20 restored, authentic Shaker buildings.
Lenox And Stockbridge
These two towns form the cultural nexus of the southern Berkshires. Lenox still feels like the Gilded Age-era resort town it was in those heady pre-federal income tax years. Stockbridge also has its share of Gilded Age "summer cottages" but simultaneously keeps much of its Colonial New England charm. In fact, so adorably quaint is the village that Norman Rockwell—a resident of the town from 1953 until his death in 1978—chose to immortalize its all-American hominess in many of his most famous paintings, including Stockbridge Main Street at Christmas.
What to See: Author Edith Wharton was one of the Gilded Age New Yorkers who took up residence in the Berkshires. The Mount (2 Plunkett St., 413-551-5111, edithwharton.org), the beloved summer estate that she designed and decorated herself, still stands and, after extensive renovation work, is open to the public. Unfortunately, The Mount is experiencing financial difficulties, so go this year, because its future is uncertain.
Just north of The Mount is Shakespeare & Co. (70 Kemble St., 413-637-1199, shakespeare.org), a theater company specializing in Shakespearean productions as well as more contemporary playwrights. Aside from its busy production schedule, Shakespeare & Co. hosts actors' workshops that have attracted A-listers like Sigourney Weaver, Keanu Reeves, and Andie MacDowell.
Located in nearby Beckett, Massachusetts, Jacob's Pillow (358 George Carter Rd., 413-243-9919, jacobspillow.org) is the nation's first and longest running dance festival. It's celebrating its 76th year with a full summer slate of performances, classes, lectures, book signings, and exhibits.
Arguably the center of the Berkshire's cultural universe is Tanglewood (297 West St., 413-637-1600, bso.org). Every summer, for three glorious months, the Boston Symphony Orchestra relocates to the sweeping lawns and shaded groves of Tanglewood's campus. Led by maestro James Levine, the BSO (well, the other BSO) will tackle a program of Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, and Brahms this summer. Plus, the BSO will cede the stage some nights to luminaries like Yo-Yo Ma, Joshua Bell, James Taylor, and Garrison Keillor, who will broadcast a live edition of A Prairie Home Companion from Tanglewood on June 28.
The man who celebrated his affection for the Berkshires and its inhabitants in some of the country's most beloved images is now the subject of much celebration himself. The Norman Rockwell Museum (9 Glendale Rd., Rte. 183, 413-298-4100, nrm.org) contains the largest collection of Rockwell's work—including his 323 The Saturday Evening Post covers—in the world. Also onsite is Rockwell's studio.
Another historic home worth a visit is Naumkeag (5 Prospect Hill Rd., 413-298-8146), the summer residence of Joseph Hodges Choate, who was the U.S. ambassador to Great Britain from 1899-1905. The home is a blend of Norman castle and Gilded Age seaside cottage designed by noted Beaux-Arts architectural firm McKim, Mead & White. Perched above Stockbridge's village center, the estate's grounds, designed by celebrated landscape architect Fletcher Steele, offer beautiful views.
You also don't want to miss the Berkshire Theatre Festival (413-298-5576, berkshiretheatre.org), which is celebrating its 80th season this year with plays by Harold Pinter, Noël Coward, and Robert Bolt.
Where to Stay: In general, there is no shortage of bed and breakfasts in the Berkshires, and nowhere is that more true than in Lenox and Stockbridge.
The Inn at Stockbridge (30 East St., 888-466-7865, stockbridgeinn.com) is the essence of Berkshire hospitality. Innkeepers Alice and Len Schiller keep the vibe welcoming and homespun, with nightly cocktail hours and a freshly prepared full breakfast every morning, where you'll likely be greeted by their seven-year-old standard poodle, Mia.
The venerable Red Lion Inn (30 Main St., 413-298-5545, redlioninn.com) is a Stockbridge landmark, providing lodging to weary travelers since the late 1700s. Originally just eight rooms, the inn, with its rocking chair-strewn wide front porch, now boasts more than 100 individually decorated rooms in its main house, including extra suites and guest houses. Its restaurants (an elegant Main Dining Room, the cozy Widow Bingham's Tavern, the casual Lion's Den pub, and, in warmer months, the verdant Courtyard) draw patrons from all over the area, hungry for the inn's ever-changing menu of New American cuisine.
For those who want to splurge, Canyon Ranch (165 Kemble St., 413-637-4100, canyonranch.com) in Lenox is the way to go. Located on 120 lush acres, Canyon Ranch is a full-service spa/resort. Its sprawling campus of buildings, connected by climate-controlled, glass-enclosed walkways (yes, you can walk outside, too), is highlighted by the renovated Bellefontaine mansion, built in 1897 as a replica of Le Petit Trianon, Louis XV's Versailles chateau. The list of amenities and services is epic, ranging from a hair salon to kayaking expeditions.

To make a long story short, it sounds like iOS 4 was supposed to include the type of Facebook integration that iOS 5 will enjoy with Twitter but Apple and Facebook couldn't get the deal done. Subsequent squabbles over Ping, and a tempestuous visit by Steve Jobs to Mark Zuckerberg -- including a blow up over HP and their TouchPad -- only fanned the flames of discontent. According to Jennifer Van Grove at Mashable:
When Jobs learned of the webOS Facebook app during his summer visit to Facebook, he was livid. Zuckerberg vowed to get the app pulled. But Jon Rubinstein, the former CEO of Palm and then the GM of HP's webOS division, refused to halt the release of the app. Facebook responded by restricting HP's access to its APIs — just as it had done with Apple's Ping, a year earlier.
Apple wanted Facebook on iPad first, HP wanted Facebook on TouchPad first, and Facebook played both sides to the apparent benefit of... nobody. Well done.
For the whole, long, sordid version of the tale, hit the source link below. Meanwhile let's hope Apple and Facebook really have unburned their bridges and we get Facebook for iPad on or around this Tuesday as rumored.

I hate how politics plays into app releases. Just develop the damn app and push it to users. No one benefits from having these apps developed and held for months before release. Free the Apps!!!
I think that's really pathetic on Apple's part. They could've had Facebook on iPad long ago of they really wanted it, but as soon as a competitor is going to have it first, oh no, block them from getting it? Pathetic.
wrong. facebook said a long time ago they would never develop an app for the ipad because they did not consider it a mobile device. the fact that they negotiated terms to develop an app for the touchpad went against their initial reasoning. the ipad was out long before the touchpad. if the touchpad is considered a mobile device then the ipad surely should be as well. the fact that they [facebook] went behind Apple and worked with HP is what was truly pathetic. Apple had been asking for an official ipad app from the beginning.
Interesting, I was convinced that the teaser graphic for iOS4 was actually a Facebook 'F' not the bottom of a '4' at the time. Now it looks like I was right!
So, Apple's CEO was unhappy that a competitor was going to have access to an application to access a thd party's service. Anti-competitive practices?
