Well, I don't want the crime, etc. of the 70s back, but I do really miss the heterogenous feeling the city used to have. Now it's all chain stores and bugaboos, no matter what part of town you're in, and there's no one under 60 who's even slightly bohemian or arty because they can't afford rent. There have always been wealthy people here, but they didn't used to be the only people, and it's shame. The city and the arts have become much less interesting. It costs $100 to go to the theater now. [ Reply | More

Right, If you haven't been in ny for years, that's what is available to you. Us- 3 brs, maid's room LR, DR, Sep Kitch, Parlor+2 bths for under 1K monthly. I grew up here but not in this apt. I'd never pay $6K monthly on anything that I I wasn't buying-or anything over $2500. Native NYers, do not generally pay $6k for a 2br on the UES- unless they're the kids of extremely wealthy parents.

Suggested donation, so you could pay $1 or check for the free times at the info booths. The Whitney has a free night. But what would be your problem with paying for a museum? Not all of them have large endowments & have to pay staff, facilities fees, etc. Seems like something worthy to pay for. I don't include MoMA in my personal like list because it was a very cold, intense place to work- remember the strike? [ Reply | More

we're not discussing jobs here, we're discussing access to the arts for the general public. one free evening a week is not that helpful, either. My point is that all these things cost a lot of money now b/c the museums are also in an arms race to be the "best" and acquire the most prestigious art, and that's where their money goes. The Met and every other one has tons of pieces that never even come out of storage. [ Reply | More

I doubt that much of the general public wants access to the arts & paying a suggested donation is pretty fair- a person could pay 10 cents. I don't think museums are in an arms race- acquisitions are paid for mostly by board members out of their own pockets. I would say that the museums are clamoring to get more people in there and are quite accomodating. The thing about storage is that some pieces are not in display-worthy condition; it's about preservation as much as access. Some places are doing the visible storage thing. I think that having a free night every week is very helpful- what alternative would you suggest? [ Reply | More

1. you have to figure out how many ounces. has she taken a bottle of bm already? if not, pump 6oz, give bottle when she is hungry and see how much she eats. then leave that amount times how many feedings you will miss plus one extra just in case. 2. no pumping on train. Pump before train and once you get to shower. 3. no freezing milk. bring cooler and ice pack that comes with your pump. [ Reply | More

[ - ] My DD is 3.5 - what should she be doing? I don't have any other children to compare her to and my friends don't have children that age. For example - she should count to X? Know ABC? Read small words - what? What is your 3.5 year old doing? Is there anything in particular I should be teaching her besides having fun and reading stories to her? Thanks. 4 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

you should do what you are doing. To think she needs to be reading small words is insane when the ave. dc starts reading btwn 5-7yr old. Don't worry..as long as she is gaining her weight, seems normal, she's fine. [ Reply | More

my ds is this age and i've found that games are a great way for him to learn and practice things like counting, letter recognition, reading concepts, etc. If you don't already, get some matching games, age-apprpriate board and card games. It's fun to play and I feel like he gets so much out of it without having to "teach" formally. Btw, he can count to 100, recognizes his name but no other written words, knows the first letters of some basic words but not how to read the whole word, understands rhyming and can tell me words that rhyme... I think that's about it. [ Reply | More

I do not have acne but do have the usual bumps, redness, capillaries, etc. and it really smooths them out. I use an undereye concealer in addiiton to the powder too. I've never used a product like this before - it looks like you Photoshopped your skin! [ Reply | More

REALLY!?? Wow, well I don't have acne now, but I did and have some scars so I usually like something that can cover well... I guess I could use concealer underneath or something. I am on maccosmetics.com right now, but I can't seem to find it? [ Reply | More
