			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<a href="http://thefuturewell.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/19228984_a7d6def3c5_o.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-669" title="19228984_a7d6def3c5_o" src="http://thefuturewell.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/19228984_a7d6def3c5_o.jpg" alt="" width="600" /></a>

Happiness itself is a commons to which everyone should have equal access.

That’s the view of Enrique Peñalosa, who is not a starry-eyed idealist given to abstract theorizing. He’s actually a politician, who served as mayor of Bogotá, Colombia, for three years, and now travels the world spreading a message about how to improve quality-of-life for everyone living in today’s cities.

Peñalosa’s ideas stand as a beacon of hope for cities of the developing world, which even with their poverty and immense problems will absorb much of the world’s population growth over the next half-century. Based on his experiences in Bogotá, Peñalosa believes it’s a mistake to give up on these cities as good places to live.

In three years (1998-2001) as mayor of Colombia’s capital city of 7 million, Peñalosa’s Administration accomplished the following:
<ul>
	<li>Led a team that created the TransMilenio, a bus rapid transit system (BRT), which now carries a half-million passengers daily on special bus lanes that offer most of the advantages of a subway at a fraction of the cost.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Built 52 new schools, refurbished 150 others and increased student enrollment by 34 percent.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Established or improved 1200 parks and playgrounds throughout the city.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Built three central and 10 neighborhood libraries.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Built 100 nurseries for children under five.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Improved life in the slums by providing water service to 100 percent of Bogotá households.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Bought undeveloped land on the outskirts of the city to prevent real estate speculation and ensured that it will be developed as affordable housing with electrical, sewage, and telephone service as well as space reserved for parks, schools, and greenways.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Established 300 kilometers of separated bikeways, the largest network in the developing world.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Created the world’s longest pedestrian street, 17 kilometers (10.5 miles) crossing much of the city as well as a 45- kilometer (28 miles) greenway along a path that had been originally slated for an eight-lane highway.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Reduced traffic by almost 40 percent by implementing a system where motorists must leave cars at home during rush hour two days a week. He also raised parking fees and local gas taxes, with half of the proceeds going to fund the new bus transit system.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Inaugurated an annual car-free day, where everyone from CEOs to janitors commuted to work in some way other than a private automobile.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Planted 100,000 trees.</li>
</ul>

<blockquote>CircleBath is Foster + Partners’ first hospital and represents a radical departure from orthodox approaches to hospital planning. The three-storey building is set into the hills on the edge of protected green belt nine kilometres south east of Bath and its compact arrangement provides a ‘corridor-less’ environment, encouraging a sense of community and well-being.</blockquote>
Design is a small up front investment in something that can clinch an experience that will win lifetime customers. ]]></content:encoded>

Happiness itself is a commons to which everyone should have equal access.

That’s the view of Enrique Peñalosa, who is not a starry-eyed idealist given to abstract theorizing. He’s actually a politician, who served as mayor of Bogotá, Colombia, for three years, and now travels the world spreading a message about how to improve quality-of-life for everyone living in today’s cities.

Peñalosa’s ideas stand as a beacon of hope for cities of the developing world, which even with their poverty and immense problems will absorb much of the world’s population growth over the next half-century. Based on his experiences in Bogotá, Peñalosa believes it’s a mistake to give up on these cities as good places to live.

In three years (1998-2001) as mayor of Colombia’s capital city of 7 million, Peñalosa’s Administration accomplished the following:
<ul>
	<li>Led a team that created the TransMilenio, a bus rapid transit system (BRT), which now carries a half-million passengers daily on special bus lanes that offer most of the advantages of a subway at a fraction of the cost.</li>

<blockquote>CircleBath is Foster + Partners’ first hospital and represents a radical departure from orthodox approaches to hospital planning. The three-storey building is set into the hills on the edge of protected green belt nine kilometres south east of Bath and its compact arrangement provides a ‘corridor-less’ environment, encouraging a sense of community and well-being.</blockquote>
Design is a small up front investment in something that can clinch an experience that will win lifetime customers. ]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<a href="http://thefuturewell.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/19228984_a7d6def3c5_o.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-669" title="19228984_a7d6def3c5_o" src="http://thefuturewell.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/19228984_a7d6def3c5_o.jpg" alt="" width="600" /></a>

Happiness itself is a commons to which everyone should have equal access.

That’s the view of Enrique Peñalosa, who is not a starry-eyed idealist given to abstract theorizing. He’s actually a politician, who served as mayor of Bogotá, Colombia, for three years, and now travels the world spreading a message about how to improve quality-of-life for everyone living in today’s cities.

Peñalosa’s ideas stand as a beacon of hope for cities of the developing world, which even with their poverty and immense problems will absorb much of the world’s population growth over the next half-century. Based on his experiences in Bogotá, Peñalosa believes it’s a mistake to give up on these cities as good places to live.

In three years (1998-2001) as mayor of Colombia’s capital city of 7 million, Peñalosa’s Administration accomplished the following:
<ul>
	<li>Led a team that created the TransMilenio, a bus rapid transit system (BRT), which now carries a half-million passengers daily on special bus lanes that offer most of the advantages of a subway at a fraction of the cost.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Built 52 new schools, refurbished 150 others and increased student enrollment by 34 percent.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Established or improved 1200 parks and playgrounds throughout the city.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Built three central and 10 neighborhood libraries.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Built 100 nurseries for children under five.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Improved life in the slums by providing water service to 100 percent of Bogotá households.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Bought undeveloped land on the outskirts of the city to prevent real estate speculation and ensured that it will be developed as affordable housing with electrical, sewage, and telephone service as well as space reserved for parks, schools, and greenways.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Established 300 kilometers of separated bikeways, the largest network in the developing world.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Created the world’s longest pedestrian street, 17 kilometers (10.5 miles) crossing much of the city as well as a 45- kilometer (28 miles) greenway along a path that had been originally slated for an eight-lane highway.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Reduced traffic by almost 40 percent by implementing a system where motorists must leave cars at home during rush hour two days a week. He also raised parking fees and local gas taxes, with half of the proceeds going to fund the new bus transit system.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Inaugurated an annual car-free day, where everyone from CEOs to janitors commuted to work in some way other than a private automobile.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Planted 100,000 trees.</li>

Happiness itself is a commons to which everyone should have equal access.

That’s the view of Enrique Peñalosa, who is not a starry-eyed idealist given to abstract theorizing. He’s actually a politician, who served as mayor of Bogotá, Colombia, for three years, and now travels the world spreading a message about how to improve quality-of-life for everyone living in today’s cities.

Peñalosa’s ideas stand as a beacon of hope for cities of the developing world, which even with their poverty and immense problems will absorb much of the world’s population growth over the next half-century. Based on his experiences in Bogotá, Peñalosa believes it’s a mistake to give up on these cities as good places to live.

In three years (1998-2001) as mayor of Colombia’s capital city of 7 million, Peñalosa’s Administration accomplished the following:
<ul>
	<li>Led a team that created the TransMilenio, a bus rapid transit system (BRT), which now carries a half-million passengers daily on special bus lanes that offer most of the advantages of a subway at a fraction of the cost.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Built 52 new schools, refurbished 150 others and increased student enrollment by 34 percent.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Established or improved 1200 parks and playgrounds throughout the city.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Built three central and 10 neighborhood libraries.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Built 100 nurseries for children under five.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Improved life in the slums by providing water service to 100 percent of Bogotá households.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Bought undeveloped land on the outskirts of the city to prevent real estate speculation and ensured that it will be developed as affordable housing with electrical, sewage, and telephone service as well as space reserved for parks, schools, and greenways.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Established 300 kilometers of separated bikeways, the largest network in the developing world.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Created the world’s longest pedestrian street, 17 kilometers (10.5 miles) crossing much of the city as well as a 45- kilometer (28 miles) greenway along a path that had been originally slated for an eight-lane highway.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Reduced traffic by almost 40 percent by implementing a system where motorists must leave cars at home during rush hour two days a week. He also raised parking fees and local gas taxes, with half of the proceeds going to fund the new bus transit system.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Inaugurated an annual car-free day, where everyone from CEOs to janitors commuted to work in some way other than a private automobile.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Planted 100,000 trees.</li>
</ul>

<p>I spoke at the <a href="https://www.cuspconference.com">Cusp Conference</a> <b>Order Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online now</b>, last week to a packed audience at Chicago's Museum of Contemporary Art about health, design, and time. Other speakers were Richard Saul Wurman who founded TED and Maggie Breslin who heads up the Mayo Clinic's SPARC Design Group, <b>Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) from canadian pharmacy</b>.  <b>Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) trusted pharmacy</b>, There were many more amazing speakers.</p>
<p>The argument I made is that how we spend our time is the number one killer in the developed world and modern medicine doesn't have the tools to improve how we spend our time, <b>buy cheap Cipro (Ciprofloxacin)</b>.  <b>Online buying Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) hcl</b>, From 1880 to 1960, our life expectancy increased 31 years, <b>where can i buy cheapest Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online</b>. From 1960 to 2010 (the era of "modern medicine"), we've only added 7 years, <b>order Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online now</b>.  <b>Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) price</b>, It was simple public health measures like clean water, vaccines, <b>where can i find Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online</b>, <b>Buy cheap Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) no rx</b>, and antibiotics that made such a drastic change prior to 1960. And now we're stuck because pills and scalpels don't fix unhealthy lifestyle, <b>buy Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online cod</b>.  <b>Japan, craiglist, ebay, overseas, paypal</b>, So, if modern medicine isn't going to fix our bad behavior, <b>purchase Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online no prescription</b>, <b>Buy Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) from canada</b>, what will.</p>
<p>I'm calling this Public Health 2.0, <b>rx free Cipro (Ciprofloxacin)</b>.  <b>Order Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online now</b>, Public Health 2.0 is taking an active role in designing our built environment, our food supply, our activities, and our social connections to ultimately influence for the better how we spend our time in this modern world.  <b>Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) samples</b>, We should talk about good design more in terms of health.</p>
<p>Chicago has done their best to lead by example, <b>buy Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) from mexico</b>.  <b>Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) coupon</b>, The new <a href="http://www.millenniumpark.org/">Millennium Park</a> is a phenomenal example of "healthy" urban design. It brings people together to give us ridiculously interesting things to see, <b>Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) over the counter</b>, <b>Where can i order Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) without prescription</b>, hear, feel, <b>buy Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) without a prescription</b>, <b>Order Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) no prescription</b>, and smell. It gives us a reason to be active and connect with our friends and family, <b>buy no prescription Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online</b>.  <b>Buy generic Cipro (Ciprofloxacin)</b>, This is Public Health 2.0.</p>

Other speakers were Richard Saul Wurman who founded TED and Maggie Breslin who heads up the Mayo Clinic's SPARC Design Group, <b>Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) from canadian pharmacy</b>.  <b>Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) trusted pharmacy</b>, There were many more amazing speakers.</p>
<p>The argument I made is that how we spend our time is the number one killer in the developed world and modern medicine doesn't have the tools to improve how we spend our time, <b>buy cheap Cipro (Ciprofloxacin)</b>.  <b>Online buying Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) hcl</b>, From 1880 to 1960, our life expectancy increased 31 years, <b>where can i buy cheapest Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online</b>. From 1960 to 2010 (the era of "modern medicine"), we've only added 7 years, <b>order Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online now</b>.  <b>Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) price</b>, It was simple public health measures like clean water, vaccines, <b>where can i find Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online</b>, <b>Buy cheap Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) no rx</b>, and antibiotics that made such a drastic change prior to 1960. And now we're stuck because pills and scalpels don't fix unhealthy lifestyle, <b>buy Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online cod</b>.  <b>Japan, craiglist, ebay, overseas, paypal</b>, So, if modern medicine isn't going to fix our bad behavior, <b>purchase Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online no prescription</b>, <b>Buy Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) from canada</b>, what will.</p>
<p>I'm calling this Public Health 2.0, <b>rx free Cipro (Ciprofloxacin)</b>.  <b>Order Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online now</b>, Public Health 2.0 is taking an active role in designing our built environment, our food supply, our activities, and our social connections to ultimately influence for the better how we spend our time in this modern world.  <b>Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) samples</b>, We should talk about good design more in terms of health.</p>
<p>Chicago has done their best to lead by example, <b>buy Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) from mexico</b>.  <b>Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) coupon</b>, The new <a href="http://www.millenniumpark.org/">Millennium Park</a> is a phenomenal example of "healthy" urban design. It brings people together to give us ridiculously interesting things to see, <b>Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) over the counter</b>, <b>Where can i order Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) without prescription</b>, hear, feel, <b>buy Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) without a prescription</b>, <b>Order Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) no prescription</b>, and smell. It gives us a reason to be active and connect with our friends and family, <b>buy no prescription Cipro (Ciprofloxacin) online</b>.  <b>Buy generic Cipro (Ciprofloxacin)</b>, This is Public Health 2.0.</p>

Happiness itself is a commons to which everyone should have equal access.

That’s the view of Enrique Peñalosa, who is not a starry-eyed idealist given to abstract theorizing. He’s actually a politician, who served as mayor of Bogotá, Colombia, for three years, and now travels the world spreading a message about how to improve quality-of-life for everyone living in today’s cities.

Peñalosa’s ideas stand as a beacon of hope for cities of the developing world, which even with their poverty and immense problems will absorb much of the world’s population growth over the next half-century. Based on his experiences in Bogotá, Peñalosa believes it’s a mistake to give up on these cities as good places to live.

In three years (1998-2001) as mayor of Colombia’s capital city of 7 million, Peñalosa’s Administration accomplished the following:
<ul>
	<li>Led a team that created the TransMilenio, a bus rapid transit system (BRT), which now carries a half-million passengers daily on special bus lanes that offer most of the advantages of a subway at a fraction of the cost.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Built 52 new schools, refurbished 150 others and increased student enrollment by 34 percent.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Established or improved 1200 parks and playgrounds throughout the city.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Built three central and 10 neighborhood libraries.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Built 100 nurseries for children under five.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Improved life in the slums by providing water service to 100 percent of Bogotá households.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Bought undeveloped land on the outskirts of the city to prevent real estate speculation and ensured that it will be developed as affordable housing with electrical, sewage, and telephone service as well as space reserved for parks, schools, and greenways.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Established 300 kilometers of separated bikeways, the largest network in the developing world.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Created the world’s longest pedestrian street, 17 kilometers (10.5 miles) crossing much of the city as well as a 45- kilometer (28 miles) greenway along a path that had been originally slated for an eight-lane highway.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Reduced traffic by almost 40 percent by implementing a system where motorists must leave cars at home during rush hour two days a week. He also raised parking fees and local gas taxes, with half of the proceeds going to fund the new bus transit system.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Inaugurated an annual car-free day, where everyone from CEOs to janitors commuted to work in some way other than a private automobile.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li>Planted 100,000 trees.</li>
</ul>

Design is a small up front investment in something that can clinch an experience that will win lifetime customers. ]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[The New York City Department of Design + Construction:

In the 21st century, designers can play a crucial role in combating the most rapidly growing public health epidemics of our time: obesity and its impact on related chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and some cancers. Today, physical inactivity and unhealthy diet are second only to tobacco use as the main causes of premature death in the United States. A growing body of research suggests that evidence-based architectural and urban design strategies can increase regular physical activity and healthy eating.

The <em><a href="http://www.nyc.gov/html/ddc/html/design/active_design.shtml" target="_blank">Active Design Guidelines</a></em> provides architects and urban designers with a manual of strategies for creating healthier buildings, streets and urban spaces, based on the latest academic research and best practices in the field.
