I need to renovate my kitchen and I want to remove a wall so in order to get board approval I need an engineer to assess the structural integrity.  Does anyone have any recommendations?

Also, does anyone have suggestions for a good design consultant?  I don't want to endure the headache of an extensive renovation just to discover that the kitchen still doesn't "flow" and I have little annoyances to live with like moving my head out of the way of opening cabinet doors that are too wide or the placement of the task lighting renders it useless.

A friend of mine was coming home late yesterday, around 2am, and stopped to get a falafel from the cart on 37th Ave near 80 or 81 Street.  The guy asked if she had a boyfriend and started making vulgar hand gestures asking if he "sexed her real good" then grabbing and touching himself through his clothes.  She'd already paid so she simply left and hurried home.  She said she was in such shock she wasn't sure what to do and if it was something worth reporting to the cops

Just thought I'd put it out here for awareness and see if anyone else has had an obscene encounter with that particular cart. Also, does anyone have suggestions for anything she could still do now even though its a day later? Is there someone we could ask who could encourage an investigation of this particular vendor or something?

Its not in JH but its convenient!   

I assist the board of directors of this Shakespeare theatre company in midtown.  http://americanglobe.org   Its on 46th Street and right around the corner from the F train 47/50 St stop.  The current mainstage production is Much Ado about Nothing, playing Thurs, Fri & Sat evenings at 7:30pm with a Sunday matinée at 3:00pm.  Tickets are $18 for the regular performances.

This Saturday, March 12th we are having our annual Gala and Auction to support our Shakespeare for Schools program.  Tickets to the Gala are $60 and it includes the performance as well as an hors d'Å“uvres, wine and dessert reception.

Its a great production and should be a really fun evening.  Have some interesting stuff at the auction this year including:
Broadway Show Tickets; Yoga, Personal Fitness and Computer training sessions; dinners for two; cooked at home French dinner party; backstage tour of Phantom; gift baskets... etc.   

Tickets can be purchased via the website if anyone is interested in the Gala or regular performances.

So, some friends of mine that want to move here found an apartment they are really interested in but they found a complaint online stating that the whole building was infested with bedbugs... 311 has closed out the complaint.   Does anyone here know if 7410 35th Ave indeed did have bedbugs and if they are completely gone now?  Any other inside scoop on the building would be really appreciated as well

I just moved into the Hampshire House last week and can't figure out why this thing is in my wall. I've asked an electrician, google, the real estate agent (unfortunately the seller left the country and is hard to reach and he also had tenants after he moved out so he's not a sure answer anyway) as well as all my facebook friends and no one has a clue as to what this is for.

Bad cellphone photo:
Its a circuit board, hardwired directly into the electrical system.  My friend uninstalled it and nothing adverse has happened... yet.  The facebook consensus was that it was a government or organized crime listening device (albeit a rather conspicuously placed one  ). The one serial number I could get off one of the things on the board brought up timers on google.

Someone went to some trouble to install it, make a plate cover and etc. for it so I'd hate to toss it if it has some practical purpose... I just can't figure what purpose that might be.  Misc details that are probably unrelated but since it was on my electrical system... I think this building was built late '30s, I have no phone jack in the place, no electrical outlets in the bathroom but I have 7 circuit breakers for a 1 bedroom and while this was installed in the entryway it happened to be on the same breaker as my refrigerator. 

Anyone here have an answer or theories?
