MONSTER MANIA 2006
Oct. 7 's Everyone loves monster trucks, those giant machines that seem to announce: "We can and will conquer you and destroy you and make orphans of your children!" Monster Mania will also include motorcycle teams and a fair. Huge air jumps and stunts. Sounds good.

KAUNAS PHOTO DAYS
Sept. 28 - Oct. 12 - It's been said that every photograph is a lie, capable of making you believe a funeral is a wedding and a wedding a funeral. This may be why it still fascinates us. Kaunas Photo Days is a large-scale annual photography festival, the only one of its kind in the three Baltic states. It takes place every September and October in Lithuania's second largest city, Kaunas, and takes over quite a few venues, including smart new galleries and medieval museums.
