The guys at Madrid Me Mata have proposed a little market of Design for this week. A little thing sponsored by a nice brand of gin we an use to look at clothes and, on top of that, to get a little tipsy.
"Sometimes, war is necessary." Wut...?!?
What we most like about their page? Well, that if you want more they’ll give you maps and favorite places suggested by the locals. And oh, yes, we do love maps!

… And besides that…(it looks like it’s Madonna’s week) we discovered today The Queen’s new photos for Dolce & Gabbana. Is she the Mamma or isn’t she? Meeowww!
Madonna Dolce & Gabbana
Note: Next week we’ll be on a diet if you want, we can understand why so many people get tired of hearing about her.
Madonna was in Pimlico visiting an old high school friend who manages Lady MacBetty’s Pole Dancing Lounge, Pub, and Crumpet Shoppe.
Naomi Bickerlow, said that she had not seen Madonna since they had graduated from Chief Rain-in-the-Face High School in Bay City, Michigan a little over 30 years ago.
Both had been cheerleaders and Bickerlow said that her senior year, Madonna, or Donnie as she called her was voted, “Girl Most Likely To Put Out At The Senior Prom.”
Bickerlow said that Donnie was also secretly voted “Student We Would Most Like To See Stand on Her Head While Wearing A Dress.”
When the principal found out about that particular vote, he called all of the male teachers into his office and said that he was shocked that they would even consider saying such a thing.
He scolded them and said that it was one thing for the male student body to say that, but it was an entirely different thing for the male teachers to carry on in that way.
Lately it seems that Madonna has been competing with Angelina Jolie to see who can adopt the most children from the most unusual place.
Madonna-the-pop-goddess (as opposed to the religious version) has been mentioned in 45,633 articles in the British press over the past 10 years, almost 17,000 times more than her nearest rival, Robbie Williams.
Researches found that the first half of the decade was so dominated by Madonna stories that even when her publicity popularity peaked in 2007, she had still accrued enough media coverage to win the overall race by a clear margin.
So who will dominate the tabloids for the next decade? If Cheryl Cole’s recent omnipresence is anything to go by, the singer looks sure to be in with a chance of pole position come 2020.
Thanks to her primetime role as a judge on The X Factor, and the tabloid press’s increasing fixation with her at the expense of her fellow Girls Aloud bandmates, Cole has seen her newspaper stocks skyrocket.
In 2007 there were “just” 884 articles written about the Geordie singer but in 2008 – the year she joined The X Factor – the number of articles mentioning Cole jumped to 2,241. This year she has appeared in 3,745 articles, making her the fourth most written about celebrity of 2009.
Madonna is featuring in Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring/Summer 2010 ad campaigns shot by Steven Klein. There’s a sneak preview of it in this week’s Italian edition of Vanity Fair. What do you think? Me like…
Cox, Brian — You already knew actor Brian Cox was awesome; now witness him teaching Hamlet’s famous soliloquy to an exceptionally adorable 2 year-old. Sure, that’s okay, I guess, but does he know the St. Crispin’s Day speech from Henry V? No? Amateur.

Flash, The – The creators of a new Flash comic says that the story arc for the new narrative is somewhat of a beginning from the ground-up. Writer Geoff Johns called the new plot “a very basic concept — it’s superhero CSI.” This is great news; I’ve always wondered how much more quickly a murder could be solved if David Caruso could get a DNA sample back to the lab really, really fast.

Madonna — 51 year-old Madonna has been dropped as a spokesperson for designer Louis Vuitton and replaced by 25 year-old model Lara Stone. Said a Louis Vuitton spokesperson: “We like our spokespeople to reflect our product — and our product is new bags.”

Potter, Harry — Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows director David Yates tells The Telegraph that Daniel Radcliffe may appear nude in at least one scene of the upcoming installment. I’d just like to thank David Yates and the Telegraph for running this story, using the words “Harry Potter,” “Daniel Radcliffe,” “nude” and “naked,” allowing us to synopsize it here and ensuring that this particular Entertation Index gets google hits from weirdos from now until the end of time. Thanks, pervs!

Reid, Tara — The American Pie actress made her Playboy debut in the January/February issue, meaning she’ll grace the coffee tables of college males everywhere for a month; and it probably won’t be the first time she’s been burned by cigarettes and had tequila spilled all over her.

Saldana, Zoe — The sultry actress and Avatar star told Esquire magazine that she wants a clumsy, imperfect “asshole” with flaws. Okay, Zoe, I get it. Please, please stop calling me.

Television, in the 2000′s — New York Magazine is currently running a very thoughtful piece on how the 2000’s should be remembered as the decade where television became art. I couldn’t agree more; I’ve been trying to get people to recognize According to Jim as a modern, dadaist portrait of the deluded American family and its disjointed ideals and values for years. I am vindicated!
Today, my mom and I were out doing some Christmas shopping and stopped by the post office because I needed to get stamps for my Christmas cards. When I got up to the counter, I asked the girl for a book of stamps. She said, “All I have right now is Madonna.” And I said, “It’s OK, it doesn’t matter, I just need stamps. I really don’t like Madonna but I’m not worried about it.”
However, as soon as she handed me the book of stamps, I realized I’d just assumed she meant Madonna the singer. Oh no. She meant Madonna as in, Madonna and Child. Madonna, as in the depictions of the mother of Jesus. And there I was saying, “I don’t really like Madonna, but whatever.” Who knows what she thought of me after that..
Please don’t remind me how horrible I am. I’m coming to terms with it. On the plus side, they really weren’t Madonna the singer stamps, which is a good thing, because she’s the one I don’t like.
