In May of 2008, a new museum about Woodstock and the Sixties opened in Bethel, NY on the site of the 1969 Woodstock festival. Designed by Gallagher & Associates, the museum features artifacts, interactive displays and never-before-seen film footage. The New York Times called it "... a tie-dyed time machine that puts those iconic three days of peace, love and music into historical context."

"Crustacean Avengers" Win First Prize at Red Bull FLUGTAG Chicago. In early September, a team of theatrical, fanatical flight enthusiasts calling themselves the "Crustacean Avengers" took part in the Red Bull FLUGTAG (German for "Fly Day"), on Chicago's Lake Michigan waterfront. 29 teams, chosen by Red Bull from hundreds of applicants, competed.
Christina Senechal pilots the team's aircraft to a smooth, wet landing after a flight of 120 feet, by far the longest of the day. She is followed into the lake by four cheering Maine lobsters. Photo courtesy of Red Bull.
