After a legal battle disputing whether Madonna should be allowed to add to her interracial tribe of children, she won. According to AP:
Madonna can get "Mercy," Malawi's highest court ruled Friday. The court overruled a lower court, saying the pop star can adopt 3-year-old Chifundo "Mercy" James.
"I am ecstatic," Madonna said in a statement in which she also thanked the court. "My family and I look forward to sharing our lives with her."
Madonna's lawyer Alan Chinula said he would now arrange a passport for Chifundo, which could take several days, and was awaiting word from Madonna on travel plans for the girl.

Way to go, Madonna. Another child saved. 1.5 billion more and you made a real difference in the world! People like me for my positive thinking.
