Honey, can you turn your shirt off?
I was hanging out over the Dorfman’s house when a photographer friend’s girlfriend dropped by to show us the coolest thing….EVER! L.E.D. designed shades for the home. Again, I’m not going domestic on you, but they were pretty fabulous. Now Phillips has cashed in on the deal. Their new Lumalive…
Oh You Are Soooo Damn Fine: Eco-fashion in the Burg
Please tell me you DID NOT build a totally cool eco-fashion boutique a block from my house. What are you trying to do to me? Well, this is by far the sweeeeetest shop that the Burg has to offer, but my bank account is going to be a’bruised. This joint…
Read all about it, Good Magazine is out
Good Magazine’s premier issue is out. LOVED the political senate highlights + being from Pennsylvania – loved the overview of Rick Santorum. (Yah, #%*$ you, Santorum)…hope you like your website.

S4: Sustainability Trends in Fashion
You can say you heard it from the horse’s mouth. S4 is launching this month with its premier issue on MOSO (bamboo). We went a little overboard with the design of this one…believe me, subsequent newsletters will not be 50+ pages long. The full report is available via consultation, and…
Prop 87: Good Idea for an Ecofashion Sports Tee
With November just around the corner and global warming a heated debate, it’s a perfect idea for Californians and other greenies alike to start promoting Prop 87. Bono didn’t say you can wear “politics on your sleeve” for nuthin. About Prop 87: Establishes $4 billion program to reduce oil and…

Rainforest Action Network gets jiggy at Plumm
Sorry I didn’t tell you guys in time, but I headed over to Plumm last night to see what Whoopi, Chris, and Norah had to say during the Rainforest Action Network benefit. I just wanted to hog Noth all to myself (okay, not really, but…) I had an O.K. time.…
I Hear Country in LA
Given the slick and shlocky stuff that pervades the radio, music that goes by the name “country” is likely to elicit only rolled eyeballs and guttural groans. But it’s worth remembering that country music isn’t all kitsch. Some musicians (I think of Johnny Cash and Gillian Welch) manage country music’s…
Fishtale
This week in DC, concern over a scientific study that found “intersex fish” in the Potomac resonated only briefly around my office and circle of friends. I have tried impress my concern upon them that we are, in fact, drinking Potomac River water here in DC (and in some of…
Patriarchy of Pork
While reading through my environmental ethics text book today (that will be used for a class called Philosophy and the Environment…woot!) I came across a section called “Patriarchy of Pork or Feminist Fuss” in a chapter called “Ethics and Animals”. The section is only about a page long (a bit…
