Madonna in the news (what a shock)

Note the last paragraph in the article

Madonna's Malawi 'support offer'

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6104750.stm

"Madonna funds six orphanages through her Raising Malawi charity and is setting up an orphanage for 4,000 children in a village outside the capital, Lilongwe".

I'm learning one year in an infant's life is a life-time of development.  A woman with her wealth, why couldn't she just have donated the money and help mothers and fathers in Africa, England and/or America without disrupting a child's sense of home-land, in the first place???  For more, read Lemn Sissay  He's got more to say about the subject.  He should know, too, since he's the adult version of this "new development".

I believe this earned me a fresh new  bottle.
