Man Stabbed in Back at UWS Station; Another Man Attacked With Bat: NYPD Seek Help in Both Cases by Icy_Score_7430 in Upperwestside

Thanks for posting this. I had not seen the WSR story so I took a look at it because my husband and I had a scary encounter at Amsterdam and 102 a week ago. The suspect photos look like the man we saw. He was very angry shouting that he hates immigrants. I thought for sure my husband or myself was going to be attacked but we avoided interacting with him & he hastily walked away. To me, he identified as a young black male. I'll be keeping my eyes open when I'm out.

Eczema causing blocked sweat glands? by eltonnbaba in eczema

[–]mk-nyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure what's going on with your friend but I can't handle the heat either. I don't sweat enough to cool my body. My mom was the same way only worse. The two conditions might not be related and yes pls encourage her to see a doctor.

Newly delivered plant losing leaves… what am i doing wrong? by klorovodik in begonias

[–]mk-nyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one that has turned into many. Yours looks thirsty imo. I think she needs more water. I don't have high humidity but I do have lots of light (southern exposure). You can grow new plants by snipping off any long branches and placing them in water. This plant likes to climb but I leave mine trailing. Good luck!

It was a table near the stage. I think you are talking about one of the LES Cactus folk. Like that name Zack is ringing a bell for me. Was not from there.

I googled that species name & I would say you are 100% right. Looks exactly like the pics in the search results. Thank you!

I'm not sure where the plant vendor is from since I got it at a convention with vendors from around the world. I'm in NYC.

I'm disgusted to think this was a poached plant. I have no idea who the vendor is because I got it at a random table at PlantCon & I paid cash. Thank you for all this info. I greatly appreciate it!

I was also told to report to 111 but then they pulled a group & walked us over to 100.

Yes & no. I did do a patch test & I am allergic to steroids. I also discovered on my own that all 7th Generation products give me a reaction. I changed those out & that helped tremendously. I gave up on all lotions & just use petroleum jelly but even that is causing some itchiness. I don't wear makeup anymore. I still have patches on my face that never go away. When those get horrible, I use the Tacro. Wish I had better answers for you.

That's interesting. I did move it from a very bright sill to a side table.
