In the family of periodicals, Good resembles an American cousin of Ode, but younger and more visual, like a nephew of Tibor’s Colors. Open’s thoughtful design features visual tagging using color coded navigation symbols by theme along the top and links to more info along the bottom margin. With a focus on ideas that inspire and people doing interesting things, each issue features a unifying theme interpreted visually by a different designer or group (the inaugural issue highlights WK12 taking on “I ♥ America”). In other senses, Good’s got an excellent hand, smells pleasant and gifts us with thoughtful stickers rather than wasteful blow-out subscription cards. Last but not least, they’re Good to the core with recycled paper content, carbon emissions offset, exclusive rights on content relinquished after 120 days and CC licenses encouraged.

A whole constellation of interestingness has formed around NYC’s South Street Seaport area: 1. Fantastic photography exhibition and benefit for Tibet Fund September 16-24, 2006 (print sales online through October 16th). Photographers Steve McCurry, Teru Kuwayama, Sonam Zoksang (those vivid high-altitude hues!), Jesse Pesta (such beautifully evocative b/w prints!) and Jennifer Macfarlane are exhibiting images from Tibet, Nepal and India reflecting the cultural, religious and national identity of the Tibetan people. At The Photographic Gallery, 252 Front Street between Peck Slip and Dover Street. Update: Opening Night Party writeup by Abigail Pesta with photos by Simon Koo and Kate Attardo. 2. A fascinating look inside our selves at the Bodies exhibition. Expect to spend at least an hour… amazed. 3. Enjoyable views (and brews, the apricot ale’s quite lovely) from the sofas in the beergarden overlooking the river around Spiegeltent, a unique space to hear live music at Pier 17, South Street Seaport.

How to identify suspicious moles on your own skin? Look for spots that express ABCD (Asymmetry, Border irregularity, Color and Diameter) and also those that are E (Evolving in size, shape, symptoms such as itching or tenderness, surface bleeding, or shades of color). Please take care of your beautiful skin and get it checked out by a dermatologist if anything seems strange — when detected early, melanoma can usually be treated successfully. More on Marc Jacobs’ store window activism, which actually turns out to be that of his business partner, Robert Duffy. In-depth looks at celebrity skin conditions by dermatologist and film buff, Vail Reese, M.D., at Skinema.
