Bush spent much of last week out of public view at his ranch in Crawford, Texas, waiting until Saturday and his weekly radio address to vow that the U.S. would stand with the Iraqi people to ensure that their "young democracy is stable and secure and successful."

Before she started designing spaces, Crawford wrote about them. In 1989 she launched the British Elle Decoration and over the next decade was credited with introducing contemporary design to Britain in an unsnobbish way. "Then one day," she says, "I thought, No more, I don't want to become part of the furniture."

...hosts, two invitations to a celebrity golf event, entree to a private VIP reception and a luxury train trip to the presidential library for viewing the parachute jump.
