These are the inside photos of Taylor Swift in this issue:































In this issue Taylor talks about love, being fearless and being single. Here are the highlights:

Taylor on love: “Love is something that happens to really lucky people, but sometimes it’s not an exact fit. A lot of times you end up with people who maybe look the way you want them to, but don’t act the right way.”

Taylor on being single: “Right now, I’m genuinely happy being single. I feel that, when I meet the person who’s worth calling every night I’ll be happy to do it. But at the moment I don’t want to be out there looking for a boyfriend.”

Taylor on song lyrics: “Putting personal details into my songs is a fearless move because there is a lot to lose. Some people might be freaked out and not talk to me in case they might end up in a song. But if one person is able to relate to it, then it’s worth it.”

Taylor on being let down: “Most of my songs are about when I’ve built up someone in my mind, but they’ve turned out not to be the person I thought they were. At that point, for me, there is no turning back.”

Taylor on being fearless: “..being fearless is allowing yourself to get hurt. Putting personal details into my songs is a fearless move because there is a lot to lose. Some people might be freaked out and not talk to me in case they might end up in a song. But if one person is able to relate to it, then it’s worth it.”

Polish natioanlists Branding Madonna as a "Crypto-Satanist"

A group of Polish nationalists condemned on Thursday a planned weekend concert by Pop Diva Madonna in Warsaw, branding her a "crypto-Satanist" who wants to insult the Christian religion.

According to Marian Baranski, deputy head of the "Faith and National Tradition Defense Committee 'Pro Palonia" that "Madonna specializes in offending religious feelings... It is possible to suspect her of being crypto-Satanist."

Madonna has upset many believers in devoutly Roman Catholic Poland by choosing to give her Polish debut concert on August 15, when Christians mark the Virgin Mary's ascension to heaven.

The former member of Polish parliament, Zygmunt Wrzodak said that "Madonna sneers at Jesus Christ, the symbol of the cross and all Christians, but the group said it had called off a planned protest on Saturday at the concert venue for fear of provoking "riots."

Madonna, whose very name signifies the Virgin Mary, has often annoyed conservative Christians, kissing an actor playing Jesus in one of her videos and staging a crucifixion scene in her last world tour.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie in Cool Oufit at the "Inglourious Basterds" Premier

The couples are completely cool in their black outfit as they joined Quentin Tarantino at the premiere of "Inglourious Basterds" on Monday, Aug. 10, 2009. Brad Pitt in a linen suit and Angelina Jolie in a fabulous, form- fitting strapless leather dress.

According to Tarantino that while he was writing this script with "Aldo" as the main character in this movie, Brad Pitt has been into his mind for a long time and he's always just been Aldo. Tarantino was happy about having a second and a third choice of who will be fit for the main character, but not this time. It was Brad Pitt and then there was nobody else.

Tarantino got Pitt to play "this hillbilly, part Indian, who would know a lot about war history and Geronimo's battle plan, who would take a bunch of Jewish American soldiers, go behind enemy lines and do an Apache resistance against the Nazis," which should tell audiences that this is a slightly wacky, very R-rated war film.

The cup smashed on the bullet-proof glass which was slightly scratched. It looks like it was done by someone who was upset and wanted to draw attention to herself."

The woman put up no resistance when museum guards apprehended her after the incident on August 2. She was handed over to police who said the woman "did not have all her mental faculties and has been transferred to the police psychiatric infirmary."

Cory Aquino's funeral convoy reaches Intramuros, Manila

Separated by nearly three decades, Wednesday’s funeral of former President Corazon Aquino and that of her assassinated husband, former Sen. Benigno Aquino Jr., will be sharply different.

Ninoy Aquino’s burial in 1983 was on many people’s minds Sunday as they grieved over the death of his widow, while noting the differences and similarities between the two events.

Family friends said the long-ago funeral was fiery, occurring in the midst of protests and hatred at Ferdinand Marcos’ dictatorship.

According to Philippine Daily Inquirer that Ninoy Aquino's uncle and former Tarlac Congressman, Hermie Aquino told them -- "During Ninoy’s wake and funeral, the people were angry and were crying for blood.” Now, it’s a show of love and compassion to Cory,” he said.

While the convoy reaches to Intramuros the Manila Police District said several roads would be closed in view of the vigil for Aquino at the cathedral. Some 1,000 policemen will be deployed around the vicinity of the cathedral.

Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay urged the public to join in honoring Aquino when the convoy passes through Ayala and Gil Puyat avenues at 11 a.m. or 12 noon.

Motorists are advised to avoid the east side lane of Ayala (bound for Gil Puyat), and the north side lane of Gil Puyat (bound for Taft Avenue), as these will be closed once the procession leaves La Salle Green Hills.

Last September 3, 2008, the former President Corazon C. Aquino has last full-length interview with GMA-7 correspondent Jessica Soho. She gave thanks to God for made her as a Filipino. Read the transcript here.

A Lovely Poem for Cory Aquino from her late Husband

A decades ago, the late national hero Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino wrote a lovely poem for his lovely wife, former president Corazon "Cory" Aquino. The poem became a song in 1989, when the composer and song writer Jose Mari Chan set the piece into music and included it to his album, "Constant change".






Here's the Lovely Poem in titled of:

" I Have Fallen In Love With The Same Woman Three Times"

"I have fallen in love
with the same woman three times;
In a day spanning 19 years
of tearful joys and joyful tears.

I loved her first when she was young,
enchanting and vibrant, eternally new.
She was brilliant, fragrant,
and cool as the morning dew.

I fell in love with her the second time;
when first she bore her child and mine
always by my side, the source of my strength,
helping to turn the tide.

But there were candles to burn
the world was my concern;
while our home was her domain.
and the people were mine
while the children were hers to maintain;

So it was in those eighteen years and a day.
’till I was detained; forced in prison to stay.

Suddenly she’s our sole support;
source of comfort,
our wellspring of Hope.
on her shoulders felt the burden of Life.

I fell in love again,
with the same woman the third time.
Looming from the battle,
her courage will never fade

Amidst the hardships she has remained,
undaunted and unafraid.
she is calm and composed,
she is God’s lovely maid.

Singer Christian Bautista is the only singer who have given a chance to record on his own version of this song for the new generation.

Bautista said, "This is actually Jose Marie Chan's. They want me to record a new version for the new generation. And for that to happen, it's really an honor for me. Maybe I'm just an instrument for the past great songs that already made".

"Almighty God, most merciful Father
You alone know the time
You alone know the hour
You alone know the moment
When I shall breathe my last.

So, remind me each day,
most loving Father
To be the best that I can be.
To be humble, to be kind,
To be patient, to be true.
To embrace what is good,
To reject what is evil,
To adore only You.

When the final moment does come
Let not my loved ones grieve for long.
Let them comfort each other
And let them know
how much happiness
They brought into my life.
Let them pray for me,
As I will continue to pray for them,
Hoping that they will always pray
for each other.

Let them know that they made possible
Whatever good I offered to our world.
And let them realize that our separation
Is just for a short while
As we prepare for our reunion in eternity.

Our Father in heaven,
You alone are my hope.
You alone are my salvation.
Thank you for your unconditional love.

Amen "
