Later she wore a J. Crew camisole, cardigan and pencil skirt in the March 2009 issue of Vogue. A hefty wait-list immediately started for all three fall items...
...predictive power of Google's system is relatively imprecise, since it depends solely on a large number of people getting sick and hitting their computers.

The party won more votes than any single party in the March 1 regional election, but failed to achieve the necessary majority.
