		<description><![CDATA[Today, annoyed at how the space I live in disfunctions, I began to re-envision my apartment. The problem with the layout (pictured below) is that the bedrooms are scattered and the public areas do not relate to each other. At parties, the long hallway gets clogged, and, in the morning, I wake up to people [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jerome Wincek has been quietly producing some of the most interesting rock-influenced folk music for a decade out of his living room in Oil City, Pennsylvania. As luck would have it, we don&#8217;t need to live close by to be part of his creative process. Jerome routinely uploads new material to his myspace page. Then, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is an undeniable truth that few want to address: increasing solar and wind production cannot halt global climate change. The technologies that harness the power of the sun are effective only at increasing supply during peak power usage. They, however, are not a replacement for coal, and that is what we need. The entire [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I fell in love with Japanese architecture a few years ago while building stone and thatch homes of the English countryside vernacular. Less rustic than their English counterparts, these intricately detailed homes feature simple, clean lines.

Following the lead of architects such as Le Corbusier Japanese architects combined these traditional design aesthetics with elements of the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have studied the work of Philip Johnson extensively. So it was with much anticipation and excitement that a few weeks ago, on the way back from my eco-adventure, I stopped in New Caanan, Connecticut to visit his Glass House. I love Johnson&#8217;s modern approach to space and light. To many his greatest legacy is [...]]]></description>

Now that the landscaping has had a chance to grow in, I would like to share some photos of the home with you.

		<description><![CDATA[Inspired
When I heard John Wood speak in spring 2008 at the Global Development Conference, I was inspired. He spoke of a trek through Nepal where he stumbled across a school that had no books but the few castoffs from travelers. The books were locked in a cabinet, too precious for the children to touch.
