The Metropolitan Museum of Art(The Met for short), located in New York City, is the largest art museum in the United States and one of the ten largest in the world. Its permanent collection contains more than two million works, divided among seventeen curatorial(館長制的) departments. The main building, located on the eastern edge of Central Park along Manhattan's Museum Mile, is by area one of the world's largest art galleries. There is also a much smaller second location at "The Cloisters" in Upper Manhattan that features art of Middle Ages.
Represented in the permanent collection are works of art from classical things and Ancient Egypt, paintings and sculptures from nearly all the European masters, and a collection of American and modern art. The Met also maintains art of Africa and Asia, etc. The museum is also home to collections of musical instruments, costumes(服飾), and ancient weapons, ranging from 1st-century Rome through modern American design, which are permanently preserved in the Met's galleries. As of 2012, the Met occupies about 2,000,000 square feet. Admission is paid what you wish with a recommendation of $25.
The Met's permanent collection is cared for and exhibited by seventeen separate curatorial departments, each with a specialized staff of curators and scholars, as well as four conservation(保存) departments and a department of scientific research. In addition to its permanent exhibitions, the Met organizes and hosts large traveling shows throughout the year.
The director of the museum is Thomas P. Campbell, a long-time curator, who replaced Philippe de Montebello following his retirement at the end of 2008. The Metropolitan Museum of Art was founded in 1870 by a group of American citizens.

It opened on February 20, 1872, and was originally located at 681 Fifth Avenue.

Get rid of your addictions while you sleep? Weizmann Institute researcher Dr. Arzi is not promising this yet, but she and Prof. Sobel have shown that changing bad habits through sleep conditioning could someday be possible. After just one session in the Neurobiology(神經生物學) Department’s sleep lab, volunteers reported smoking on average 30% fewer cigarettes over the course of a week. Volunteers given the same conditioning while awake did not reduce their nicotine(尼古丁) consumption.
Arzi and Sobel had first presented true sleep learning in 2012. This is the same conditioning that Pavlov, a Russian physiologist who is best known for discovering the conditioned response, discovered when he trained dogs to salivate(過量分泌唾液) at the sound of a bell: Teach the mind to subconsciously associate one sense with another. Their twist was to use smell instead of the bell: We can register and even react to smells while we sleep without waking up. So when the volunteers were exposed throughout the night to the smell of cigarette smoke together with that of rotten fish, they did not remember it in the morning. And yet their need for a “ciggy” was not as strong as it had been.
The second trick was to monitor the sleepers’ brain waves and give the smells at the right stage of sleep. The group’s previous research had suggested that the associations are formed and firmed in the brain during non-rapid-eye-movement(NREM) sleep — the stage in which researchers believe that memories from the previous day are being strengthened. The new study supported this finding quite strongly. 精品小說推薦： 昔日落魄少年被逐出家族，福禍相依得神秘老者相助，從此人生路上一片青雲！ 我行我瀟灑，彰顯我性格！ 彆罵小爺拽，媳婦多了用車載！ 妹紙一聲好歐巴，轉手就是摸摸大！ “不要嘛！” 完整內容請點擊辣手仙醫
