Hail Mary! It’s July 1st, 2007. This month we’ve made one major change to our Hail Mary list. We’ve created our Hail Mary Hall of Fame, where we’ve retired all the ladies that have appeared on our #1 spot- Carol Lim, Jauretsi Saizarbitoria, Claw Money, Michelle Siwy, Roxy Cottontail and Santi White- in order to make room for more women to appear on our list! The actual page will be up in a few days so make sure to check back.

June had a handful of exciting events spread across the boards. Congrats to Leah McSweeney and Rob who welcomed a beautiful baby girl, Kier! Angela Boatwright (along with Patrick O’Dell, also featured on our site!) showed their “200 Troubled Teenagers” photography exhibit at LA’s downtown Standard Hotel, she also had a nice spread in Nylon Guys this month, make sure to check it out. DJ Lindsey’s Fader Suite 903 CD just dropped, Vashtie recently wrapped a video she directed for Armand Van Helden, and once again, the ladies of Studio B. and Fun drew one of the best party crowds at their Roller Derby disco a couple weeks ago.

As for Worship Worthy, we’ve been hard at work, planning a few new exciting projects which you’ll soon be hearing about. We also had a robbery in our studio that oddly ended before we realized that my computer and wallet were stolen! The perpetrator was caught and I fortunately got all my belongings back. I’m marking that one down as good kharma and passing it on to all of you!

We’ve had more new nominees this month, though only one newcomer made our list. With our Hall of Fame there’s lots more room for more women to be featured, so make sure to nominate your favorite downtown lady New Yorker!

Here it is. Hail Mary and good kharma!
