Cowl Back Tops Put A New Twist On The Lowcut Neckline!
Posted in: Uncategorized  | Talk about bringin’ sexy back! Cowl back tops push the limits of how low you can go with your neckline without the danger of looking unsophisticated or the risk of… well, popping out (yikes). While similar to the season’s popular cut-out trends, cowl styles have a little softer, effortlessly elegant vibe going on, as if the top just naturally draped on its own to conveniently show off your best new summer asset! They add an extra breezy femininity to your casual summer tanks, and can totally dress up an otherwise boring tee. Of course, there is a catch — a low-cut back introduces the obstacle of pesky visible bra straps — but it’s easily solved! Look into a convertible bra specifically for backless tops for the illusion that nothing’s there at all, or add interest with purposely visible straps for a pop of color… as long as you’re able to rock it like you intended for them to show rather than looking like an unfortunate fashion oversight! Browse the slideshow for some summer-approved cowl back tops! |

p[images courtesy A HREF=”http://www.barefootcollege.org/” Barefoot College/A, first entrant listed below]/p
pBuckminster Fuller would be proud. The annual challenge held in his name is not some pie-in-the-sky design competition where the slickest rendering wins; instead the A HREF=”http://challenge.bfi.org/” Buckminster Fuller Challenge/A seeks “workable solution[s] to one of the world’s most significant challenges such as water scarcity, food supply, and energy consumption.” 215 entrants from around the world threw their hats into the ring this year, and competition was reportedly stiff./p
pAfter much deliberation six finalists were chosen by A HREF=”http://challenge.bfi.org/jurors” a distinguished 11-member jury/A including Cores fave John Thackara, IMetropolis/I E-in-C Susan Szenasy, Earth University President Jose Zaglul and others. Said BFI Exec Director Elizabeth Thompson, “Strong themes emerged from this year’s pool involving issues around urban agriculture and the built environment, disaster recovery and transition, community engagement and global ecology, and smart business strategies tied to creative use of technology to improve quality of life in the most impoverished parts of the world.”/p
pThe six finalists are as follows:/p
blockquoteBarefoot Women Solar Engineers of Africa, Asia and Latin America (Tilonia, Rajasthan, India)
Training women in remote towns and villages to solar electrify their own communities and to be the ongoing resident solar engineers, thereby catalyzing the local economy and improving quality of life.
pA HREF=”http://challenge.bfi.org/2010Finalist_CalltoFarm” Call to Farm: FarmShare/A (Brooklyn, NY, US)br /
FarmShare reconnects farmers and consumers as co-producers of the foodscape using urban backyards and an online social network. This is a leading model in the emerging urban agricultural movement./p
pA HREF=”http://challenge.bfi.org/2010Finalist_EcoBlvd” Eco-Boulevards/A (Chicago, IL, US)br /
This remedy re-conceives the Chicago street-grid as a holistic Bio-System that captures, cleans and returns wastewater and storm-water to the Lakes. This model could be instrumental in how cities around one of the largest bodies of fresh water operate as mindful gatekeepers of a critical resource./p
pA HREF=”http://challenge.bfi.org/2010Finalist_LivingBuildingChallenge” Living Building Challenge/A (Seattle, WA, US)br /
One of, if not the most, comprehensive set of design and performance based standards related to the built environment. Their purpose is to effect a paradigm shift in our entire approach to the buildings we design, construct, renovate and occupy and to serve as a catalyst for innovation./p
pA HREF=”http://challenge.bfi.org/2010Finalist_OperationHope” Operation Hope: Permanent water and food security for Africa’s impoverished millions/A (Africa and New Mexico, US)br /
This project demonstrates how to reverse desertification of the world’s savannas and grasslands, thereby contributing enormously to mitigating climate change, biomass burning, drought, flood, drying of rivers and underground waters, disappearing wildlife, massive poverty, social breakdown, violence and genocide/p
pA HREF=”http://challenge.bfi.org/2010Finalist_WatergyGreenhouse” Watergy Greenhouse/A (Berlin, Germany)br /
This project is refining a closed system greenhouse that provides extremely efficient farming capabilities in water-scarce communities. It will allow a dramatic shift in resource efficiency for the supply of water, food and renewable material and can be deployed across urban and rural conditions./p
pThe winner will be revealed at a ceremony in Washington DC on June 2nd, 2010 at the National Press Club and will be awarded $100,000 in prize money to honor and encourage further development of their work./blockquotebr /

Virtual Street Corners
Posted in: Uncategorized 
In an effort to bridge gaps between two neighborhoods of Boston, digital media artist John Ewing created the public art project Virtual Street Corners. The project, set to unveil June 2010, uses live video feeds between Boston locales Brookline and Roxbury to encourage neighborly affection between the predominantly African-American and Jewish neighborhoods.
Social action site Dowser highlights Ewing’s effort, which his experience creating public murals around town inspired. In conversations with the public he found people kept to their own neighborhoods, rarely venturing beyond familiar stomping grounds. Virtual Street Corners aims to mediate that disconnect by using video and microphones to encourage virtual dialogue.
The project has already gained attention for its forward-thinking ideals and technology—Virtual Street Corners won grants from the Black Rock Arts Foundation and the Knight Foundation, and is a finalist for a Cambridge Arts Council grant.
