Santos said Martha Stewart Weddings Philippines will be more than a magazine — it also will include a bridal fair, scheduled for next year, complete with live demonstrations and exhibits. With a target circulation of 16,000 copies an issue, Martha Stewart Weddings Philippines will come out twice a year, in September and March. The publishers expect there to be an average of 200 pages an issue with a cover price of 295 Philippine pesos, or about $6.50 at current exchange. — Bambina Wise

THE BLOGS IN BRAZIL:
Although the fashion blogosphere in Brazil boasts more than a dozen amateurs, its first professional has just entered the fray. Lilian Pacce, a São Paulo-based fashion consultant and host of a weekly cable TV fashion program, launched her blog and her Web site, lilianpacce.com.br, during São Paulo Fashion Week, which ended last week. Pacce's blog includes photos of what locals are wearing at venues ranging from rodeos to raves; links devoted to innovative designers, from fashion and graphic arts to industrial design, and a link devoted to eco-conscious fashion industry initiatives. And now Brazil can join the rush: Where one blogger begins, hordes of others are destined to follow. — Michael Kepp

CLARIFICATION: In the Memo Pad item on page 13, Tuesday, regarding a potential sale of Us Weekly and Men's Journal by Wenner Media, the lawsuit alluded to involves the attorneys general from nine states suing R.J. Reynolds over an ad for Camel cigarettes that appeared in Rolling Stone magazine. However, Rolling Stone is not a defendant in the lawsuit.
