New for 2010:
Monday - Monday Classes
Saturday- Sunday Classes
Here at Adirondacks andBeyond, we are constantly looking for ways to make your learning experience assuccessful as possible.
To this end, last season we beta tested the Sunday , Monday , Monday schedule. (MMCS)
This new class schedule wasan immediate success, and we sold out the test classes within days of postingthem on our schedule.
It allows for a break between the first and second day of range exercises not available in other classschedules.
This seems to be a greatadvantage for those students that would like to slow down the overall pace ofthe class.
The riding portion of all BRCs is broken up into two distinct sections, presented over a two-day period.
In the SMMCS you have aweeks break between day one and day two of the riding portion of the class.
Enrollment for the SMMSC classes differs slightly from the enrollment of all our other classes. Each class posted has to have a minimum of 8 students enrolled before enrollment for the next scheduled class will be opened.
For those of you with Mondays off, or those of you that could use a break between day one and two of riding for physical reasons, this is the class for you.

It is time for all the digital messiahs to recalibrate
I've spent big chunks of the past few weekends reading entries to WPP's internal Atticus Awards, which I'm judging again this year.
Sheesh, it's been hard work judging the shortlisted papers. Because almost every paper is stuffed with valuable learning, judging them is a bit like trying to cram for a major exam: you just hope not too many facts and thoughts will slosh straight out again as your brain begins to overflow.
Young people actually don't want to be changed by digital; many are starting to tire of being always-on
Anyway, what was unusual about this year's judging was the presence of several entry papers that focused on what the authors had identified as a nascent digital backlash. What a relief. We've had years of reading clever stuff about how digital and social are fundamentally changing not just the way people do things but people themselves. And they have – but not at the expense of everything pre-digital. Now several Atticus papers have offered some very clever thinking around the idea that people – many of them young – actually don't want to be changed by all things digital; many are starting to tire of being always-on, always connected, always interacting, always being watched and monitored and tracked. They would like a bit of quiet, unconnected, uninteractive time, please.
This always seemed inevitable to me: as digitally native teenagers grow up, have kids, get mortgages and spend all day sitting in offices working on screens, coming home and sitting back and simply being entertained becomes a brain-salve. It's why TV viewing (on whatever device) is as popular as ever.
I reckon a year or two ago, even the smart people at WPP wouldn't have been very keen to write this down in a paper to put before the boss. Trying to frame any sort of reality check around digital communications was tantamount to writing yourself out of the future. Sir John Hegarty put it brilliantly a couple of weeks ago when he said that the messiahs of digital are "a bit like the Taliban; if you don't believe what they believe, you'll be taken out and shot".
Now there's a groundswell of thinking and research around our tolerance limits for our connected digital world – limits that will have been hardened a little more by this week's revelations that Facebook has been manipulating our emotions by doctoring our news feeds to test the impact of positive versus negative news on our state of mind. Standard(ish) research practice, perhaps, but disturbingly creepy.
None of this amounts to a full-scale recalibration to analogue, of course, but it's a sobering reflection of how militant and carried away our industry can get in its obsessive pursuit of the new. And it's nice to have a bit more balance at last.

Review this movie
Nov 10, 2014Die Hard is popcorn entertainment at its finest with strong performances all around (including an iconic portrayal of Hans Gruber by Alan Rickman), witty dialogue, and terrific action sequences.
Oct 25, 2014This movie launched a whole new perspective on the hard hitting action hero. It's not pulsing with muscle like Arnold or Stallone. It's not suave and tact like James Bond. It is sloppy, gritty, and wise-cracking. Bruce Willis opens out a stage all his own with his role as John McClane. A normal NYPD cop visiting his wife in LA runs into a problem when a some bloodthirsty thieves break into the Nakatomi building (Mrs. McClane's work building and headquarters of the entire company) Lead by German master mind Hans, they take over the building with dozens of hostages including John inside while they plan to steal the company's wealth. He's just one man. And he looks pretty ordinary, but he quickly proves to be a problem for the bad guys. Bloody shootouts, hard nosed fight scenes, and clever Willis commentary. Any person who likes action films has to respect what has been done here. Simple as that. Due to the excessive blood, gore, and swears, the score has to be a little low. I also felt some of the hand to hand and gun fights were a bit choppy and chaotic more so than they needed to be. The local chief of police also seemed pretty stupid. That was kind of the point, but I think they made him a little too stupid and ignorant. But don't get me wrong, this is one of the best action movies on record. John McClane is one of my all-time favorite action heroes. Takes the genre to new levels. Props.… Expand
Sep 28, 2014I love me an action classic. And Die Hard is the definition of that. One of the most relatable main characters ever, gunfights that will have you on the edge of your seat, and, for lack of better words, a f*cking awesome villain. And let's not forget John's good old catchphrase. Yippe-Ki-Yay mother f*cker!
Sep 28, 2014I may be young, but god, I LOVE the classics, especially this film. The action in the film had me on the edge of the sofa for the whole film, I just couldn't get my eyes away from the TV!
A great, funny and action packed film that I would definitely recommend watching!
Aug 28, 2014The ultimate Bruce Willis action-flick straight out of the 1980s. Die Hard is no doubt a roller coaster of thrills, but it is all a bit familiar. Nevertheless, Alan Rickman's villainous portrayal will long be remembered.
Jul 5, 2014One of the best action films of all time, Bruce Willis puts on a very charismatic performance. Alan Rickman also puts on a nice villainous performance
May 25, 2014Die Hard has to be one of the greatest Christmas movies of all time the fact that its also a brilliant action film makes it absolutely amazing. Of course this is the best Die Hard in the franchise and after you watch the newest one it makes you love this movie even more but also sad to see how the franchise dwindled. Bruce Willis and Alan Rickman are phenomenal together they brought both of their characters to life with their amazing acting to a point where you want to root for both of them to win. Bruce Willis as John McClane was so enjoyable because of how real the character felt rather then a normal super hero main character that you dont care for they made him just a regular guy so that you connect more with him then you would with a emotionless main guy out for blood like many movies in this genre. Die Hard was Alan Rickman's first movie and what an impression he made with his slick acting as the main villain Hans Gruber a guy you start to love throughout because of how cold and calculating he is. He later went on to be in many high profile movies and is now one of my favorite actors.
Overall i give it a solid 10 This is for sure the best Christmas action movie of all time i dont care what anyone says. I watched it when i was young and i plan to watch it when im old no doubt about that.… Collapse
Apr 12, 2014It may be more than 25 years old now but, thanks to its perfect mix of humour and spectacular action sequences, Die Hard remains the greatest action movie of all time.
Jan 1, 2014Die Hard is popcorn entertainment at its finest with strong performances all around (including an iconic portrayal of Hans Gruber by Alan Rickman), witty dialogue, and terrific action sequences.
Dec 8, 2013Not only one of the best action films of all time but also one of the best Christmas films of all times. I love that is also features Reginald VelJohnson from 'Family Matters' fame.
Sep 15, 2013In 1988, when Die Hard came out, my parents and a family friend went to see it in New York City in a big theater. The movie was so crowded, they all did not even get to sit together. (And I don't even think it was opening weekend!) Take that into consideration for how big a movie this was back then and still is.
Die Hard is the best action movie, and probably my favorite movie, with a close second or tie with The Shawshank Redemption.
Die Hard combines well-executed action scenes with cheesy but iconic one-liners and a great main character. As sarcastic, profane, and messed up John McClane is, you have to find yourself rooting for him.
Bruce Willis, Alan Rickman, and Bonnie Bedelia, Reginald Veljohnson, and many others will have their acting skills defined by this movie forever. After all, it definitely gave a career boost to some, although Willis already had a nice acting resume on his plate. Nevertheless, it redefined the whole genre.
Action movies consist of a bunch of key elements that come together to form a coherent picture. (At least I hope it will be coherent, as some tend to fail at this process.) They combine action scenes (obviously), at least a couple one-liners, a car (there's always a car or some kind of vehicle), a villain, and usually an explosion or two. Or three. All of these elements and many more were all in Die Hard, and it kind of changed the genre for good. You will hear people say "Oh, that movie is a Die Hard rip-off", or "That stunt was first made famous in Die Hard." It's not that action movies didn't have these elements before Die Hard, it's just that Die Hard made them better and/or famous.
Die Hard will keep you on the edge of your seat, and is an extremely well-done picture that doesn't lag or slow down at all. It eases into the action in such a way that it feels natural and not forced or unnecessary.… Expand
Aug 16, 2013La mejor película de acción de la historia. No hay mucho mas para decir, solamente que es una sinfonía de Bethoven la película. Que buen rato pasé mirándola por primera vez, así que decidí verla de nuevo y me puso los pelos de punta con los tiros. Un lujo.
Jul 30, 2013Best movie of the hostage action shooter movie cool fast hitting scope and range u actually feel the chemistry between the characters and cast not like some recant bull
Apr 10, 2013This is the perfect action movie. Bruce Willis is the witty action hero every movie wishes it had and Alan Rickman the classy badass villain every movie wishes it had.
Jan 26, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is truly an piece of cinema. Bruce Willis was excellent as the perfect NYPD detective John McClane. That Hans Gruber got what was coming for him.… Expand
Dec 25, 2012This movie is great. Bruce Willis plays an amazing character in this one. He's very witty and funny. There are so many ups to this movie. I don't want to spoil it so I will just say get the DVD and watch it pronto. I am now going to watch the rest of the films in the series and waiting for the newest installment which comes out next year.
Dec 7, 2012How can you not like Die Hard? As I said for First Blood, It's one of the best action movies of all time and is a must watch for all action film fans.
Jul 25, 2012Many critics have noted over the years that 'Die Hard' is one of the greatest action movies of all time. I would be partial to that sentiment to a certain degree. It isn't one of the best films ever made but it is top of its class in its respective genre, which is good enough for me. Bruce Willis is a terrific hero but It's Hans Gruber (played by Alan Rickman) who is the standout character of the flick. He's simply everything you ever look for in an evil villain - and the accent only helps. If you're looking for a fantastic popcorn feature to enjoy then look no further.… Expand
Jun 24, 2012This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It may look like a stupid action movie to judgmental snobs, but if you payed attention and/or read the book you would be see the depth of this movie, from John doing quick scan of all the empty floors as he's escaping from the terrorists at the beginning of the movie, to the genuine look of horror in Alan Rickman's eyes as he falls.… Expand
Apr 2, 2012First off, I would give this a 9.5 out of 10. Acting is great. The villian is great, and Bruce Willis is awesome. The story is really good, and the score is really good. The action sequences are great. This is such a great, intense, action movie. Overall, this is a great action movie. It's really good. You should go see it. Highly recommended.
Feb 28, 2012In spirit, this is the simple story of a man who saves Christmas; a kind of Santa Claus Conquers the Martians scenario, in which the greedy German terrorists are defeated by the noble and just bullets of Bruce Willis' MP5 - delivering the meaning of sharing and caring right into their heads. Of course, trying to define Die Hard as nothing more than a hollow-day (!) movie would be doing it a great disservice. The characterisation of both McLane and Gruber (or Grinch - a coincidence? You decide) is done superbly by their respective actors. They draw you in with their personalities so well, that you find yourself cheering both of them on, just to see them continue to snap at each other. It's like a bizarro buddy-cop routine that took the 'good cop, bad cop' play a little too seriously. It's not incidental that the characters themselves often refer to cowboys and Westerns - this is a veritable wild-west duel, taken at a number of vertical paces rather than a standard back-to-back reflex test. That being said, however, some of the best moments are when McLane is just talking to himself, cracking wise while in the middle of a seemingly impossible situation. You don't have to convince anyone that you're a badass when you've just jumped off an exploding rooftop, Roy. You could try and make a case for the ending being cheesy and unnecessarily joyous, or that there are many implausible moments, but that would just be ill-spirited pedantry. This is action at its finest, and you better take what Mr. McTiernan gives you. There's no CGI or giant robots flying around - just good old-fashioned action, and it quickly becomes very obvious that films these days are just plain old doing it wrong. So sit back and plug in for two hours; you'll be yippie-kai-yaying in no time. Written for: www.webbinghaus.tumblr.com… Expand
Dec 14, 2011There is a reason that Die Hard is a classic and that's because it is just so very entertaining. It has a good story, a claustrophobic setting, a dynamic lead, wonderful villain and action that holds up even now, 23 years after its initial release.
Sure it's a man's film but it doesn't try to be anything other than that. It does its job and in the process creates one of the best movie villains of all time. Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman) is a terrific antagonist with everything from his demeanour to his delivery being spot on. He plays well off of Bonnie Bedelia who is great as the strong female presence of the film. Bruce Willis takes his place as one of the best action stars of this generation, taking the reigns from the likes of Stallone and Van Damme. It's a great movie.… Expand
Nov 20, 2011Die Hard is flat-out amazing, it is a great action movie that is nice for the holidays. The plot is great and Bruce Willis' acting is hands-down amazing along with the antogonists' acting, this creates for an intense and gripping movie. The dialogue is all great and I kept wanting to know what would happen next as it is that intense. The violence and action is well-played out and very entertaining, it is a great watch. The flaws are that the story sometimes slows down and this can be annoying but this happens rarely and is uncommon. Overall "Die Hard" is a great movie that action junkies must watch as well as a great entertainment fix for anyone that watches it. Breakdown for "Die Hard": Presentation: 9.2, Plot: 9.0, Acting: 9.5, Dialogue: 8.7, Lasting Appeal: 9.2, Verdict: 9.1 out of 10 "Amazing"… Expand
Sep 18, 2011Director John McTiernan's "Die Hard" is one of those original one-man macho action movies that have brainless fun and a surprisingly deep character depth. It certainly is a masterpiece.
Apr 2, 2011German terrorists, a skyscraper, Christmas Eve and LA. When these elements are combined, you get Die Hard, a 1988 rip-roaring action epic that shot Bruce Willis to international fame. The plot is delightfully simple; John McClane is a New York cop who is visiting his wife Holly in LA during Christmas Eve. He meets up with her at her business company's Christmas party. All goes well until a few uninvited guests in the form of creepy terrorists seize control of the building and take all 30 of the guests hostage, demanding a ransom. McClane, in the bathroom at their time of arrival, escapes into the unfinished skyscraper armed only with his standard issue 9mm at his disposal. His main objective; find out what the hell is going on. His only help is a flatfooted cop on the ground played by Reginald VelJohnson of Family Matters. Along the way, he is listening to radio messages between the villains with a stolen walkie talkie in an attempt to figure out their nefarious plan. Alan Rickman is great as Hans Gruber, leader of the baddies, and delivers a performance he echoes in the Harry Potter films as Prof. Severus Snape. One of the best movie villains of all time. This festival of explosions, guns and epic battles was directed by John McTiernan, famous already for the original Predator. He delivers a movie that entertains as well as it shocks. In particular, the sequence in which one of the hostages attempts to save his own life by offering McClane to the terrorists. Correctly anticipating a liar, Hans shoots him in the head. The film was one of the biggest box office hits of the 1980s and spawned three sequels throughout the 1990s and 2000s, firmly placing John McClane as an action hero alongside the Terminator and Rambo. Also, it is the best Christmas movie ever made.… Expand
Mar 6, 2011An action film at it's peak finesse and a perfect Christmas movie. Action; absolutely awesome, acting; memorable and quotable- need I say more about this film? It is too damn good to give it the highest praise.
Feb 20, 2011This movie is absolutely awesome. Only idiots will deny it. If you didnt knew when this movie was made then you could have thought it was made in 2000 and up since its so awesome made.
Oct 27, 2010just a fun film thats over the top and the king of 80s action films . bruce willis comes off as the every man who is **** , funny , and just in over his head but just plods on through this fun action packed adventure .
Not only is it a thrill-a-minute ride, but it has one of the best film villains in recent memory, a hero everyone can relate to, dialogue that crackles with wit, and a lot of very impressive pyrotechnics.
Slick, glossy, overblown, implausible. [15 July 1988, Daily Notebook, p.E1]
A triumph of slick direction and lowbrow thrills, marred but not spoiled by a sour aftertaste.

Presentation was a rather dull PowerPoint with common information that is generally available for free. It was more of an affiliate type commercial for an online product to helps sell on Pinterest for $29.99 a month. Most of what she showed requires the subscribed program. Not pleased.

The presentation was good. I thought it was going to be more like a step by step or tutorial type. To me it was just a general information presentation.

This information Cathleen presented was very good. It was very helpful that she actually showed in the presentation some of what she was talking about. Visuals are often easier to remember. Didn't give it a five because I don't think it was worth the price. Even Cathleen admitted that she is rather new to Pinterest.

Wrong-way driver slams car into home

A retired veteran and his family are still in shock this morning after a car slammed into their east Orange County home -- causing major damage.
Florida Highway Patrol troopers said the car hit the home on Lacerta Drive early Saturday morning.
"I heard that big old boom. It sounded like a bomb went off. Then i ran downstairs because it shook the house and as i looked around I encountered this big huge gap here," said homeowner Carlos Ortiz-Vega.
The car hit a load bearing wall, investigators said.
A building inspector will determine if the family can stay in the home or if they'll have to move out while the damage is repaired.

Learn about fabric careHOW TO CARE FOR WOOL FABRICS: Dry-cleaning is recommended, though some wools can take hand washing. Always test a swatch first if you are going to care for your wool fabrics at home rather than using a drycleaner. Many of the fine wools Mood sells online and in-store have already been "sponged," or preshrunk, but you can preshrink your wool if necessary. Mood recommends taking your uncut wool fabric to the drycleaners and asking them to steam it for you, which will safely preshrink it more effectively than you can using home methods. Mood strongly recommends test-laundering a swatch, if you plan to wash your garment or home furnishings yourself.

Did King David go to the mall? Malls or shopping areas are hugely popular today. Archaeologists are now asking whether shopping malls originated in the 11th century BC.
In the book of Judges we read of how "a certain woman" gave the Philistine leader Abimelech a skull fracture when she threw a millstone on him from a tower. Some biblical scholars concluded that no woman could lift a millstone to throw it. Besides, what would a millstone be doing at the top of a tower?
While evolutionists can't explain how life originated, they have proposed theories of how inorganic matter became biological molecules. Each of these theories requires the assumption that the Earth had no oxygen in its atmosphere when life first began. Oxygen would destroy the chemistry they propose.
Many creation supporters are Christians that are also interested in ancient history and like to read about the latest archaeological discoveries. However, they are concerned when, say, some very ancient remains are carbon-14 dated at forty or even fifty thousand years old. According to the Bible, the Creation itself is no more than 10,000 years old, so how does the Bible-believing Christian handle this kind of information?
Just how good are those radiocarbon dates? When reporting an exciting archaeological discovery, popular science magazines tell the reader, for example, that some man-made artifact is 40,000 years old. A few years ago it was common to find tolerance figures such as plus or minus 1,500 years attached to these ages. These tolerance figures effectively leave an impression of objective precision in the mind of the reader. Those tolerance figures are seldom used today.
Rocks, especially on high mountains, seem so solid and permanent by human standards that it is easy to believe that they have been there for millions of years. We can also be deceived into believing those evolutionary claims that rock formations represent millions or billions of years of Earth history.
One of the mysteries of ancient Egypt is that it appears to have begun as a high civilization. The very first pharaoh of Egypt is known as Narmer, and his name simply means "Catfish." From what we can tell, King Catfish, who lived around five hundred years after the Great Flood, is helping to prove the truth of the Bible's history.
Before the Kurds took over the mountains of Ararat, creationists would eagerly await the latest word from the late summer expeditions looking for the possible remains of Noah's Ark. In 1988, one team was allowed to survey a part of Mt. Ararat by air but found nothing.

"Is it possibly to write a stunning book about infrastructure? Kate Ascher's books are bliss... Using gorgeous graphics and clear, simple, language, Ascher explains the infrastructure and engineering marvels around us." --Slate.com
In our digital age, it's easy to forget that almost everything we enjoy about modern life depends on motion. We ride in cars and on buses and trains to work; enjoy food shipped over oceans; fly high in the sky to any point on the planet. Over the last century, the world has come to rely on its ability to move just about anywhere effortlessly. But what prompted this transformation? What inventions allowed it to happen? And how do the vehicles and systems that keep us in motion todayairports, trains, cars, and satellitesreally work?
Exploring our incredible interconnected world is the task of Kate Ascher's The Way to Go: Moving by Sea, Land, and Air. Lusciously illustrated and meticulously researched, The Way to Go reveals the highly complex and largely invisible network of global transportation. How is cargo moved from inland factory to seaside port, and how is it transferred from shore to ship? How do ships and planes navigate their routes without landmarks? What happens under the hood of a car or in the undercarriage of a people mover? How did planes become cheaper than ships or trains? Why are some spaceships reusable and others not? What tools are needed to build today's immense bridges and tunnels, and what ensures they don't collapse? How does a helicopter really stay aloft? What happens when lightning strikes an airplane or when one satellite crashes with another? What will the car of tomorrow look like?
Focusing on the machines that underpin our lives, Ascher's The Way to Go also introduces the systems that keep those machines in businessthe emergency communication networks that connect ships at sea, the automated tolling mechanisms that maintain the flow of highway traffic, the air control network that keeps planes from colliding in the sky. Equally fascinating are the technologies behind these complex systems: baggage tag readers that make sure people's bags go where they need to; automated streetlights that adjust their timing based on traffic flow; GPS devices that pinpoint where we are on earth at any second. Together these technologies move more people farther, faster, and more cheaply than at any other time in history.
As our lives and our businesses become more entwined with others across the globe, there has never been a better time to understand how transportation works. Indispensable and unforgettable, Kate Ascher's The Way to Go is a gorgeous graphic guide to a world moving as never before.
About the Author
KATE ASCHER serves on the faculty of Columbia University's Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation and manages Happold Consulting's U.S. practice. Prior to taking up her current positions, she worked at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, the New York City Economic Development Corporation, and Vornado Realty Trust. Her former books include The Works: Anatomy of a City and The Heights: Anatomy of a Skyscraper.
Praise for The Way to Go: Moving by Sea, Land, and Air…
"Is it possibly to write a stunning book about infrastructure? Kate Ascher's books are bliss for engineering-minded adults and children. Using gorgeous graphics and clear, simple, language, Ascher explains the infrastructure and engineering marvels around us. As David Macaulay won over a generation to architecture in the '70s and '80s with books like Castle and Underground, Ascher is enticing children to engineering, urban planning, and infrastructure."

just visiting- food in NOHO [moved from Boston board]
- r
- renniechica Jan 6, 2007 11:29 PM
Can any one please recomend a great restarunt in Northhampton Mass.? We will be traveling through next week. Up from NY. Please no Italian-- We make that at home!! Something different?? OR NOT Americana.. Moroccan? Good Thai? Good Indian?
Thank you so very much!
Thai Garden
Amanouz Cafe-Moroccan
I second Cafe Lebanon. It's great Middle Eastern food at a decent price. They always have really tasty stews on special.
There's also a Tibetan restaurant called Lhasa which is pretty good. I've only been there once (about 6 months ago or so) but it was good. Very friendly service. They serve a lot of yak, but they do have a good variety of other meat and veggie dishes.
For Indian you could try India House (there's also India Palace but India House is better). It's the best in the Noho area, but if you go about 20 miles south to West Springfield you could hit Pintu's, which is much better in my opinion.
There is Caminito, which is a good Argentinian place.
Osaka or Zen for decent sushi. I haven't tried Zen yet, but I hear it rivals Osaka. I prefer Osaka to Teapot.
I really like La Cazuela for Mexican-type food. They have really good mole.
There are so many good restaurants in the area, I don't think you'll have any trouble finding something good. I'm just trying to point out the ones that aren't typical Italian or American cuisine. If I think of anything else I'll report back.
The bloggers above have covered most of the (few) great places to eat, but stop in at Table and Vine Liquors in N'Hampton (or Springfield). If you are used to NY prices, there are some huge bargains on wine. And you are only 15 minutes away from the Magic Wings Butterfly museum in Deerfield Mass. where you can sit and watch a zillion beautiful butterflies. Ther cafe has a great Portugese kale soup with chorizo!
Check it out at:
There's no great food here; if you're a NY foodie, prepare to be disappointed. Most of the "ethnic food" is underseasoned for the local Anglo tastebuds. If you're willing to splurge, Greene St Cafe does repectable nouvelle. That being said, I recommend that you stop instead in Brattleboro, Vt., about 40 min north, which has 13 (?) Main St, a restaurant that's willing to take more creative risks w/the food.
re: homesick for food
The restaurant in Brattleboro is 39 Main and it does have excellent food....
re: homesick for food
My husband and I had a nice meal at Greene Street Cafe last weekend. The service was a bit slow, and I was told the trout was "pretty much just like salmon" (!!) but no matter, I know what trout tastes like. The menu is confusing, with large and small plates all listed together without much explanation, the food is well prepared, but not cutting edge or trendy.
Wow. No great food in the Valley? Quite an overstatement.
Here are some great places that won't disappoint:
Mi Tierra (Mexican)- Hadley
Gohyang (Korean) - Hadley
Sitar (Indian)- Springfield
Pho Saigon (Vietnamese) Springfield
Cafe Lebanon (Middle Eastern) Northampton
Great Wall (Chinese)- Florence
Tabella (Tapas)- Amherst
Siam Square (Thai)- Northampton
Moshi Moshi (Sushi/Korean)- Northampton
re: caughtstars
Mi Tierra is qwned by Salvadorenians. While their food is OK and they are good folks that merit local support, it is a far cry from authentic Mexican, particularly in terms of its spicing. Cafe Lebanon's cuisine seems to suffer from the Gringo-blandness afflicting the majority of the area restaurants. Great Wall has fresh and fairly well prepared food, but also feels toned down. I've had a good meal at Pho, & good sandwiches at the coffe shop next door, & will be looking at other holes-in-the-wall in Springfield. I can't comment on the other places, but look forward to trying them.
re: homesick for food
Mi Tierra might not be 'authentic' but it certainly beats anything else in the Valley calling itself Mexican.
re: famedalupo
I have to agree with both of you here. I ate at Mi Tierra last night and it IS the best food I've had in VT/NH/Western MA that calls itself Mexican, however, the carne asada (a typical "test" plate for me) was not like Mexican carne asada. Different cut of beef and not seasoned in the way that I'm used to at least.
With that said, the food was really quite good. We ordered carne asada and an enchilada verde plate. We plan to go back again soon and order some different things next time, but we were happy to eat our delicious meal. The homemade corn tortillas were a highlight - dense and chewy.
I had no idea that the owners were Salvadoran and am wondering why they don't make pupusa and cortido (sp?)? I miss that as well. Also, there is a Salvadoran sweet bread called quesadilla (again sp?) that I love, love, love.
re: famedalupo
Wow! You were right on with the spicy pork. Last night we had the spicy pork tacos and the spicy pork burrito. I ordered the burrito and next time will order the tacos; the burrito was enormous and had beans and rice inside. I preferred the spicy pork tacos because they came with those amazing hand made corn tortillas and just the meat, cilantro and onions with a wedge of lime. Perfection! They were so good that Bruno was unwilling to part with more than one bite. I'm not a fan of the loose, kind of soupy beans so I recommend the tacos. So, so good!
Also, the place was hopping! We got there @ 6:30pm and the tables were full by 7pm.
re: Bri
Cool! I went in a couple days ago and it was packed then too, business seems to be up - a good thing. I was worried initially that there poor location would drive them out of business.
Their burrito really pops if you ask them for cilantro instead of lettuce. Had their mole on this last trip, I've had better but it was tasty enough and at $8.50 it's quite the deal versus the Northampton spots. Of those spots I've only had the mole at Mama Iguana's. Mi Tierra's is better.
re: homesick for food
I have to add another bit of yummy news re: Mi Tierra. After enjoying our spicy pork tacos and Bohemias last night, I decided to order a hot chocolate. I had low expectations and really just assumed it would be a packet hot cocoa mix - I was SO wrong! Their hot chocolate is made from scratch with the Mexican chocolate that comes in the round discs and has cinnamon and grown almonds. It was as delicious as my own that I make with the same chocolate.
So I highly recommend the hot chocolate. It is NO run-of-the-mill dry packet mix!
re: caughtstars
Thai Garden is better than Siam Square, not that that's saying much. Neither really float my boat, unfortunately (especially after having a truly excellent Thai experience in Montreal last summer).
re: famedalupo
Went to Siam Square for the first time last night and had the absolutely worst pad thai
i have ever had.... almost no eggs or peanuts, a few overcooked pieces of broccoli, deep fried dry tofu in a sauce that was so sweet it was barely edible.... Friendly service, though. Not trying the Noodles place any time soon ...
re: jeni1002
i agree with you pretty much, although the food there is better some days than others. lately, however, i have found myself very consistently satisfied by hattaporn's kitchen in greenfield. it's 221 main street in greenfield, has a very limited menu and mostly take-out (i think they have one table for dining in). cash only, i think. but very solid. the vegan pad thai is a favorite at our house. across the street (more or less) is thai blue ginger, whihc my wife prefers to the northampton places, but i find they have a very heavy hand with the fish sauce (for me, anyway). still, might be worth a try if you're jonesing. their prices are decent.
re: fatheryod
Thank you! We come to Greenfield pretty often, and it's good to know these options exist.
re: fatheryod
I do like Hattaporn's better than Blue Ginger, but both are pretty good. I probably would order from Blue Ginger more often but I am a green pepper-hater, and they seem to pop up quite prominently in a lot of the dishes I order.
I'm only in Northampton once or twice a year, but these are my regular must-haves:
Green Street Cafe - good food, fresh, local produce (Green Street, Noho)
The India House - some of the best Indian food I've ever had (including L.A.'s Little India neighborhood) (State St, iirc, Noho)
Esselon Cafe - on Rte. 9 between Noho and Hadley, great espresso and coffee, nice little cafe for lunch
Recently, TV Diner on NESN came to Amherst and reviewed Bistro 63 at The Monkey Bar. They gave it a mixed review. I wished they had gone to Chez Albert instead since it's a much better restaurant.
I don't go to Chez Albert that much because it's an expensive night out, but I love the mussel appetizer in curry broth. I don't leave a drop of the broth. The mussels with bread and a salad are all I need.

Audio Bone headphones are also waterproof. This allows sporty audiophiles to enjoy their music while they work out. In addition, these headphones do not block the ear, thus making the user aware of his or her surrounding sounds and avoid possible risks.

ZDNet senior journalist Vivian Yeo gives the headphone a try. Because of the noisy environment, GD Tech Co facilitator Sung Hwi Choi suggested Yeo cover her ears to hear the music clearer.
Although this headphone was placed at the chin instead of covering the ear, the music could still be "heard" in the head.

This was perhaps one of the worst yarns I have ever used .. best compared to knitting with twine.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Nice yarn and pretty colour. I am making a short sleeve spring top with lace features at the bottom edge. It does unravel a bit but still knits up nicely

About Me Artist, Enthusiast
A lovely yarn to work with. I am allergic to wool and cannot knit with anything other than cotton yarns, so I was so pleased to find this particular yarn. It knits beautifully with a kind of "slub" look to it.....
By JoanH
from Derby,NY
THis is made in USA, the color to dye for (tee hee). It's a scrumptous dark green/blue/black with a winderful shine. It is perfect for the tank top I chose it for!
By AKLM
from Chevy Chase, MD
I would hesitate to describe this product as "soft." It may be soft enough for some uses. I'm trying to figure out which ones. It is definitely not something you'd use for kids clothing or a kids' blanket. This is one of those times when you need to feel the yarn before buying. It is probably going to be okay for a summer weight sweater, but it has a slightly stiff quality to it. Will see what I think when I wash it.I DO appreciate the fact that this is made from recycled fibers. I might give this a recommendation to a friend---but with caveats!

Love This Yarn
By sandman_max
from Atlanta
About Me Collector
This yarn is great, slightly rustic looking dye. I didn't have any problem getting gauge for "Hey Teach" from Knitty.com, which was designed using this yarn. It seems to be standard worsted weight and I can't image using it double. Yeah - it snags some but it's a zillion ply so that's to be expected. Finished weight feels like a nicely worn sweatshirt, Stonewash looks like faded-out jeans.

Used in several projects. To get thickness of a normal worsted weight, had to use two strands. Overall, love it, especially that it's repurposed materials! http://www.GoodDaySunshineStore.com for finished projects.

NEW YORK (AP) - A disgraced New York politician will spend two years in prison for using taxpayer money to fund his 2006 campaign.
Queens Democrat Hiram Monserrate (HY'-ruhm mahn-suh-RAHT') was sentenced Tuesday in Manhattan federal court. He pleaded guilty to fraud charges in May.
Prosecutors said Monserrate secretly funneled about $100,000 to his failed state Senate primary bid. The money was meant for community programs. At the time, he was on the City Council.
After losing the 2006 race, the former New York Police Department officer was elected to the state Senate in 2008. He was expelled two years later following a misdemeanor conviction for assaulting his girlfriend.

Concerned citizens and giving hearts head to Madison's East and West Towne malls today for a Hurricane Katrina donation drive.
Two Men and a Truck moving company donated their services and Z104's Connie and Fish broadcasted from West Towne mall all day to get the word out. Although the supply drive isn't over yet the response has been overwhelming.
Connie and Fish say Two Men and a Truck continued to donate more trucks through out the day, but they got to a point where the company couldn't donate anymore. So the morning team was looking for a sponsor to donate money for a semi truck to take the abundance of supplies down to Louisiana. They estimate more than 30,000 pounds of goods have been donated.
The hurricane relief supply drive went from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Wednesday at Madison's East and West Towne Malls.

There are more construction cones going up, in neighborhoods across Omaha, as road construction season is in full swing.
On Monday there are several street closings around town due to construction projects. One of the longest closures is at 52nd and Country Club Avenue/Grant Street, where work continues on the Sewer Separation Project.
Deb Kelley lives in the neighborhood and says she's gotten used to the dust, rocks, and noise that's practically in her front yard. There has been construction in the area since the beginning of the year.
"The work has to be done and I guess we just kind of sit back and accept it. I'm not saying that I love it all the time, but it has to be done," says Kelley.
The work that crews are doing is for the federally mandated sewer project that will eventually include separate pipes for waste water and storm water.
On Monday starting at 9:00 a.m. 52nd and Country Club Avenue will be closed in both directions which will cause detours through side streets and an increase in traffic.
The closure is expected to last eight weeks.
