"Stella McCartney has had a lot on her plate this past year. New baby, a smash-hit gig for H&M, and a line of attention-grabbing activewear for Adidas. Well done for all that—but has she had enough in reserve to concentrate on her own brand? Her collection didn't really look like it. What she showed—big cocoon cardigans with sloppy collars, skimpy printed jersey dresses, mixed with A-line smocks and swing coats—lacked the stylistic grip and polish expected from a player in the premier league of Parisian fashion. Granted, something in their sixties/eighties spirit glanced in the right direction, but the focus seemed fuzzy.
The presentation took place in the pompous surroundings of the gilded salon of the
Grand Hotel, a habitat perennially associated with the rarefied métier of haute couture showings. Maybe that was a policy choice intended to separate her top line from other things she's doing, but you can't help thinking there are bolder strategies, beyond selection of venue, that could be used to leverage the equity behind brand McCartney. In a season when menswear tailoring is so much on the agenda, she could, for instance, have upped the luxe content by celebrating her signature Savile Row pantsuits, whose cut can't be achieved at mass level. Then again, perhaps a better way to go about it would be to turn her collection into a microcosm of the high-low fashion reality that McCartney embodies. What would excite both critics and her fan base alike would be to see her jeans, sporty pieces, and accessible young-girl ideas cut together with edited standouts from her posher top line. The makings are all there in her personality. Perhaps she just needs the time and space to figure it out."

"If you have an interest in the HIV/AIDS pandemic in Africa, we would
like to invite you to visit www.natavillage.org.
![]()
With today's sensational media and political agendas affecting what we
see, this website will offer you an opportunity to see first hand the
battle to control HIV/AIDS in the small village of Nata in Botswana.
Botswana, in Southern Africa, has one of the highest HIV infection
rates in the world. The pandemic has left Nata with over 400 orphans.The blog was born when world traveler Jon Rawlinson met up MelodY
Jenkins who serves as a U.S. Peace Corps Volunteer. Both were
frustrated with the fact that enormous amounts of money are pouring
into Africa yet little money is getting to the village level and to
those who need it most. Jon made three visits to Nata and filmed a
documentary about HIV/AIDS in the village. The documentary which is
currently in production led the way to the website.The website will show you the Nata Clinic, feature PLWA's (People
Living with AIDS), village life, youth groups, the Kgosi's (chiefs)
and the professionals involved in the fight to stop the spread of
HIV/AIDS. Thanks to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, 60,000
people in Botswana are taking the life saving ARV's (Anti-retroviral
medication). The challenge is that for years there was no help for
those with HIV/AIDS. Getting people to accept and adhere to the ARV's
is an ongoing struggle. The PLWA's and the youth groups are
instrumental in educating the villagers and we hope to support them
with this website. Thanks to the ARV's, Nata is now a village of hope
and much can be done to save the lives of those infected with
HIV/AIDS.Melody is working to start the Nata AIDS and Orphan Trust. If you
choose to donate, that's great but it is not the primary objective.
We are equally interested in sharing the stories of the People Living
with AIDS, introducing you to village life and letting you meet the
players that are involved in this drama that is unfolding in Nata.Thanks for taking the time to check us out. If you like what you see,
please forward this to your friends.Please forgive me if you receive this message more than once.
Sincerely,
Jon Rawlinson & Melody Jenkins"
"The Nata Village Blog
May 3, 2006
Jon Rawlingson was travelling through a remote village in Botswana when something profound occurred to him. He could make a difference. After meeting Peace Corps Volunteer Melody Jenkins and seeing her efforts to help the struggling community fight the spread of HIV/AIDS, Rawlingson, a film producer and editor, offered to create a website to focus attention on the village's plight. The resulting Nata Village Blog is a moving effort, with photographs, stories, and amazing videoblog entries. The blog documents both the challenges and the successes of the residents, clinic workers, and educators facing the HIV/AIDS pandemic. Here is a case where no description can do justice to the actual content. Please, just go visit the blog. It offers its authors and its readers alike a chance to do something profound."

A must read for Madonna lovers is "How Madonna got her groove back" in the latest issue of Rolling Stone magazine. Even if I dislike the title (because she ain't never lost that groove, honey), it was a refreshingly realistic look at the Queen herself.....it was so well written that right now I feel lost for words...I envy journalists sometimes, not just because they get to meet MADONNA, but that they can describe a moment, wrap in up in a tight little pink package and make you feel like you were right there with them.
OK, OK... let's be honest I envy the meeting Madonna part!
Read this lil' tidbit I took from the article....
"Have you ever witnessed a Madonna moment? Allow me to share one with you. It begins with the words "nice boots." Those are the first words Madonna says to me when we meet. The next words are "I approve," letting me know that we are now in her world, where a strict code of standards and practices applies. But this is not the Madonna moment. She is just, in her own way, being fun and friendly. The Madonna moment comes two hours later, when she changes into knee-high silver boots for a television performance. As she walks past, she looks down her nose at me and says, "Who's got the better boots now?"
This is a Madonna moment."
