Described as a winning collection by her boss Philip Green, Kate Moss launches her latest Topshop range on Thursday. But it's not just the UK market that can grab a piece of her famed style, as the retailer opens its flagship store in New York.
Before it hits the shops, on both sides of the Atlantic, we've got a sneak peek at the supermodel's spring/summer 2009 collection.
Mostly made up of Kate's signature of summer dresses the latest collection takes inspiration from vintage items picked up in thrift stores, seventies hippy chic and rock chick looks Debbie Harry would be proud of.
As every girl knows the dress is the perfect summer item and Kate Moss has delivered a vast selection. From easy throw-on tea dresses and sun dresses to glamorous evening sequined creations - the dress is queen in Kate's latest offering.
A favourite of the model-turned-designer is a cute floral full-skirted dress, £60, that takes its inspiration from an old vintage item Kate picked up in a thrift store in LA that did not fit.
In a first for Topshop, the High Street store has teamed up with luxury department store Liberty, with seven key pieces from the new collection sporting prints inspired by the Liberty's design archive.Bringing her playful and romantic touch to the store's iconic designs, Kate reworked three prints alongside the label's designers creating modern designs which are personal to Kate.
Below she models Poppy, the most youthful and playful of the three prints, with enlarged red blooms set against a sky blue background in a cotton mini dress, £55.
Stealing the limelight from leather, suede features heavily in the spring/summer collection. The striking laser-cut mini dress, below, displays delicate leaf-like patterns in an elegant take on the rock 'n' roll spirit of Kate's wardrobe. The flowing rose print black dress, £60, is perfect for either a beach cover-up or elegant evening wear.
If you're feeling plush, the cream diamente 'sunburst' dress embodies evening glamour and showcases what Kate does best.
At the punky end of the style spectrum is a dramatic black suede biker jacket adorned with painted and embellished feathers around the neckline, £120, here teamed with a denim safari playsuit, £50.
Kate Moss for Topshop is entering its ninth collection on the UK high street as New York City waits in anticipation for the launch of Topshop's debut American outlet on Broadway on Thursday.
She will appear as a special guest at the grand opening, when Sir Philip and Lady Green will throw open the doors of the flagship American store for the first time.

Christine Kelly, newly chosen as France's Minister for Overseas Territories, was photographed today in a bikini. The 39-year-old looks like a model out of a lads' mag. It's not fair. French parliamentary sketchwriters get to feast their pens on this pouting, pearly-toothed creation while we Westminster scribes have to put up with the likes of Ann Widdecombe, Clare Short and Patricia Hewitt.

This is not merely my male chauvinist pig opinion.
In a new poll of the world's prettiest politicos, British female parliamentarians scored nul points.
Topping this list of beauties is Luciana Leon, a 30-year-old Peruvian whose flowing blonde hair and Colgate smile would raise the temperature in a debate. She's followed by another gal from

Here are ladies from Ukraine, Spain, Italy and Japan. Even Estonia has its youthful representative in the sultry Anna-Maria Galojan.

Shakespeare influenced novelists such as Thomas Hardy, William Faulkner, and Charles Dickens. Dickens often quoted Shakespeare, drawing 25 of his titles from Shakespeare's works. The American novelist Herman Melville's soliloquies owe much to Shakespeare; his Captain Ahab in Moby-Dick is a classic tragic hero, inspired by King Lear. Scholars have identified 20,000 pieces of music linked to Shakespeare's works. These include two operas by Giuseppe Verdi, Otello and Falstaff, whose critical standing compares with that of the source plays. Shakespeare has also inspired many painters, including the Romantics and the Pre-Raphaelites. The Swiss Romantic artist Henry Fuseli, a friend of William Blake, even translated Macbeth into German. The psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud drew on Shakespearean psychology, in particular that of Hamlet, for his theories of human nature.
In Shakespeare's day, English grammar and spelling were less standardised than they are now, and his use of language helped shape modern English. Samuel Johnson quoted him more often than any other author in his A Dictionary of the English Language, the first serious work of its type.Expressions such as "with bated breath" (Merchant of Venice) and "a foregone conclusion" (Othello) have found their way into everyday English speech.


So what makes a man sexy? Take your whiffs off the following:
1. Masculinity
There is more to a man than his firm butt and washboard abs. True, what a woman first notices is his anatomical assets but what lingers in her mind is not all that. It's his inherent masculinity. It's in the way he languidly struts across the room with a show of adequacy and grace and the way he flashes the glint in his eyes that ultimately creates the spark. It's also in the manner that he moves and talks that keeps women's eyes riveted at him. Being masculine does not merely suggest flaunting a large build or a protective quality but having this natural instinctive masculine self to trigger women's instinctive feelings of attraction.
2. Smile

A natural sweet smile is one of the greatest attraction of a man. It exudes an aura of congeniality and establishes charisma presence. It also breaks a woman's resistance and communicates hidden messages without any verbal language. This is why a man who is generous with his smile is guaranteed to maintain a women-magnet profile!
3. Eye contact
A man who knows how to have eye contact is a man who knows how to communicate. Women just like men are absolute attention seekers. They want men to listen and to take heed of the things they say. Thereupon, they demand affirmation. Eye contact is a way of ratifying. It makes a woman feel sufficiently attended to and cared for. Eye contact makes women feel so extremely special that they tend to sometimes melt right on the spot.
4. Confidence
Confidence makes a man. There's just something about the appeal of wealth and power that women can't resist. Antithetical to how most people view it, giving off that commanding vibe isn't always dependent on one's bank account. Men can actually take on that aura of authority just by moving through life with an air of self-assurance and a boost of self-esteem.
5. Aromatic sense
If a man is a making of a heartthrob onscreen and is a hunk on a ramp but stinks, he definitely goes down the cutthroat world. No woman likes a man who smells a bit too ripe like he just spent 24 hours locked in the bathroom. If a man looks good and smells even better, women are bound to swarm around him.
6. Sense of Style

Some men just don't seem the type to go with the fashion trend. But it does not mean that they are passe. Some just have their own personal preferences and resist the lure of punked-up garments. Actually, it's not the clothes that make a man sexy. It's how he carries his apparel with confidence and ease that does. Clothes don't entice women, it's the man that makes those clothes look good in him that wiles them.
7. Communication skills
Intellect is a factor in today's attraction equation. We are in such a competitive world that anyone without it is immediately slighted. But intellect without communication skills is not an attractive product. Conversational skills are necessary for any man to win the tilt. He must know when and how to start up a conversation and carry it on 'til it tapers off. He should not patronize women and is not so full of himself. It is believed that if a man is able to stimulate a woman's brain juices in a conversation, it is likely that he can stimulate her other juices as well.
8. Sensitivity
Sensitivity is sexy but too much sensitivity is feminity. So where do we draw the line? When we talk about sensitivity on the right scale, it means having a sense of empathy, confidentiality and trust rolled into one. When a woman confides something, a man's initial reaction is to help her find a solution or fix it himself. This is not sensitivity. When a woman expresses her feelings, she just needs an ear to insorb the steam out of her being. A sexy man sees this through and gets women everytime.

Laughter releases chemicals that create a sense of well-being, which is a wonderful turn-on. A man equipped with a good sense of humor automatically wins his points on the sexy scale with women. With the mighty use of his expression and wits combined, he becomes an addiction that women just can't get enough of. Women think that if he can evoke them with laughter in public, chances are he can also make them giggle in bed.
10. Oddity
Extrinsic and intrinsic personal abilities and traits that are considered unique and superior by a woman's biology and also by the society to which she identifies with are, to varying extents, very charming to the female species. If a man has the gift of music or have potential fancy footwork or simply has art at his fingertips, he can charm his way anywhere. A mysterious facade that keeps her intrigued and guessing is also deemed bewitching. But a man's resistance to a woman's seduction is considered the prime. It's effects are naturally ingrained into the "sex" part of a woman's brain that it drives her motors purring all the time.
What makes a man sexy is but everything about him and even more. Whether it be on the surface or skin deep, it's just a matter of projection. Every man is sexy in their own ways. They just have to feel that in themselves so the seething sexiness comes out of them naturally.

How to Stop That Facebook Addiction
Posted by Nick O'Neill on October 2nd, 2007 10:04 AM
Are you addicted to Facebook? I know I am. It starts of with a simple exploration of your friends on the site and suddently you are logging on 10 times a day to see if any of your friends have made updates to their profile, changed their relationship status or have posted new videos or articles. Suddnely you are glued to your computer monitor and the only thing on the screen is Facebook. So maybe your addiction isn’t that bad but apparently enough people are addicted that wiki How has published an article entitled “How to Quite Facebook.” WikiHow suggests a 6-step solution:
Admit you have a problem - This sounds like the first step to any other addiction. WikiHow suggests that you ask yourself “What did I just accomplish by checking Facebook?” Ha! If only I had that much self-control over my Facebook addiction. Well, at least I admit to it!
Define your goals on Facebook - Hmm … I never really had any goals with Facebook. Although maybe my goal should be to reach 5,000 friends. That surely would get me to login more frequently. WikiHow suggests just logging in to check on friends’ birthdays, keep track of old friends, etc. Once you catch yourself going off track, log off. If only it was that easy!
Make a Facebook Schedule - Seriously? If you find yourself scheduling Facebook into your daily schedule, this should be a serious warning sign. WikiHow suggests that “after each Facebook goal, write down how much time and at what frequency you’ll need to be on Facebook to achieve that goal.” Are they serious? Based on the calculations they suggested, you end up using Facebook for 6 hours and 20 minutes a week. I think this is still a relatively significant amount of time, although I spend much more time on the site.
Think of other things you could be doing - Duh! This is a no brainer. I could be at the gym, socializing in the real world or a million other things but there is a reason I logged on in the first place. I’m starting to think that these suggestions are totally useless!
Leave Facebook - This should have been number one! If you are spending way too much time on Facebook, quit cold turkey. It’s like having your cell phone turned off for 24 hours. Once you do it, you will realize how dependent you have become and think twice about your usage.
Find a substitute - This one is good. Facebook taking up too much time? Find another site that isn’t as good! WikiHow says “if you find you’re at a computer during critical relapse time, find another website to log onto and read instead of Facebook.” Facebook relapse? This is a little crazy.
So how much time do you spend on Facebook? Has Facebook become an addiction for you?

After singer-songwriter and record producer Akon recognised that Gaga also had vocal talent, he signed her to a joint deal with his own label, Kon Live Distribution, and then started to work on her own new material for her debut album. In 2008, Gaga released The Fame, which she explained was "about how anyone can feel famous". To date, the album spawned the hit singles "Just Dance" (nominated for Best Dance Recording at the 51st Grammy Awards) and "Poker Face".

- U filmu glumim dete kome je tata poginuo u ratu, a majka je umrla od bolesti koja je tada vladala. Tražio je neko mesto gde će da živi pa su ga usvojili deda Aleksa (Bora Todorović) sa njegova dva unuka (Cvijanović i Milošević) i koji je imao mehanu. Kroz razgovore sa tim ljudima ponašao se kao odrastao čovek i bio je mnogo pametniji od svojih vršnjaka - priča Predrag prisećajući se samog snimanja.
