McQueen's clothes were as profanely original as his language. Most famous for his bumster pants, which took low-rise jeans to a whole new low, he combined a gothic, almost romantic sensibility with a robust dose of street attitude. He was a master cutter, structuring garments to change the shape of the body, accentuating what he found sexiest. "There are very few real designers who have a craft, which is to say a sense of cut, proportion and tailoring," fellow British designer Paul Smith said in 2001. "Alexander...

...degrees of success. Eight of the ten tracks borrow vocals from other musicians, and for the most part, their efforts are much appreciated. There’s a great deal of variety in the voices that carry the melodies of “Heligoland,” a welcome dose of diversity on an album that tends towards monotony in its musical textures...

...healthy dose of guarded capitalism is what America needs. Obama’s proposals, one of which is a $33 billion-dollar business tax credit, will shore up many failing small businesses in America’s heartland by providing a tax credit for each net hire by a small business. That, in addition to good labor incentivization practices, innovative ideas by talented workers, and moderate compensation packages for top executives and employees, promise to be the remedies for this ill economy.
