...generation ages and we become parents, how will our relationship with Facebook change? Many will deactivate their accounts or restrict their profile to a name, bland picture and work/education info. Facebook will become for us little more than a phonebook with pictures. And, with the closing of the Facebook era, we will lose memories from our student experiences. Like it or not, many important social interactions do take place on Facebook—memories are encapsulated in tagged photos confined to the low resolution of Facebook albums, groups and events keep us connected to larger organizations, and who doesn?...

...this new production, directed by Arthur Laurents - author of the original book and now 91 years old - the story is what seems least compelling. Partly this is due to the competent but bland cast. As Tony, leader of the Anglo gang the Jets, Matt Cavenaugh is an attractive, sweet-voiced Broadway leading man, but he doesn't look like he could survive a game of touch football, must less a gang rumble. As Maria, the virginal Puerto Rican girl he falls for, newcomer Josefina Scaglione has a lovely voice and good energy but seems to be acting by the numbers...

...make some music too, including a killer agnoletti topped with shaved truffle. Full disclosure: Schoenegger knew we were coming, but you can't hide bad food or bad execution. That proved to be more than true at the Encore's pan-Asian offering, Wazuzu, where mediocrity ruled, from the bland shumai to the uninteresting sushi to the disinterested service - our waitress abandoned us midway through the meal for her break. She was following labor rules, we presume, but the handoff was less than smooth...

...town of Desert Hot Springs doesn't offer much besides bland housing tracts and windmills spinning lazily alongside the highway, but there are plenty of worthy sights nearby, among them the stunning Joshua Tree National Park and Palm Springs' cluster of Frank Lloyd Wright buildings. But when a place like Hope Springs really does exist, sometimes it's better to make like a Hollywood luminary on the run. Take a room...
