The Urban Forest Project

If you're in Times Square through the end of October you may find yourself thinking less about neon and more about trees. The Urban Forest Project has 186 banners on display in and around Times Square created by world-renowned artists. The banners center around the subject of trees and the idea of sustainability. When the banners come down they'll be made into tote bags and auctioned off to raise money for art education.
The project is a collaboration between three non-profits: the AIGA New York, the Times Square Alliance and the Worldstudio Foundation. The project is also a brilliant way to get people talking about one cause (the environment) while supporting another cause (the arts). (link via Social Design Notes)

This is a true story. The last century 40's, early 20's Brown to North Africa, took part in the British army eight. At that time, the British are struggling, Brown at the roar of artillery and tanks in the war-phobia infected, he thought of escape, or even thought about committing suicide. One day, he accidentally read a "fire at a balance in how to maintain the soul" of the book, he was deeply touched. This book has become a pillar of his soul, the author Judith is a young female.
