The revolving hotel room in the Guggenheim a few years ago allowed one couple at a time to sleep in the space. But what about sharing this kind of experience with strangers? The Rubin Museum has an "adult slumber party" coming up on Saturday, which they're calling a "Dream-Over... sleep-over for grown-ups." If it all sounds a little Plato's Retreat-y to you, don't worry, there will be a clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst on hand to make sure you stick to a high brow, non-sexy agenda. more ›

Workers at a Greenpoint home unearthed parts of a skeleton in the backyard, the Times reports. The owner of 119 Kent St seems particularly nonchalant about human remains being found on his property: "Growing up in New York, not much surprises me. Of course, there's a skull in my backyard."

And there's also a marked difference between playfully pursuing and doggedly stalking, which one lovesick Queens EMT is quickly finding out. more ›

With news that bed bug complaints soared in 2008 and the City Council poised to vote on bed bug legislation this Tuesday, the NY Times spoke to entomologist Louis Sorkin, who works at the American Museum of Natural History. His descriptions are fascinating, if creepy: "Around 1989, someone brought in our first bed bug. Most entomologists had never seen a live infestation before. Now, infestations may be approaching the levels of 50 years ago, before DDT was used." Referring to how the bloodsuckers are becoming more immune to toxins: "That’s why pest control companies do all sorts of things besides using chemicals: heating, freezing, steaming, vacuuming. The hardest part of controlling bed bugs is finding them. Most of the literature out there talks about a quarter-inch-long reddish-brown insect, but a bed bug is a millimeter long when it’s born, about the thickness of a credit card."
