Here are some highlights of Thursday’s spring-summer 2023 shows in Paris. DEATH-DEFYING FASHION In eye-popping hues inspired by flowers and vases, models mingled with performers inside the newly renovated La Poste du Louvre for this unusual and sensitive showcase of fashion designs through dance. From a hidden ledge high above the courtyard runway, a dancing troupe suddenly stood up mid-show to gasps from the audience. In pastel colored, loosely-fitting pleated garments the performers then climbed down ladders, before performing death-defying leaps, falls and … [Read more...] about Paris Fashion Week blurs line between runway and performance

In the video, Kareena is seen seated in her house and listening to a recording of the track with a big smile on her face. “I love this song,” she chirpily said. The video then takes fans to Pritam’s studios. Aamir Khan, seen in his Laal Singh Chaddha avatar, informed the music composer that Kareena described the track as the ‘song of the decade.’ However, he was unimpressed with the upgraded track that was presented to him. “Now if she will listen to this recording, ‘Hamari Heroine Bhag Jayegi!’ (referring to another version of ‘Phir Na Aisi Raat Ayegi,’)” he joked.

Iran Says Nuclear Talks with World Powers to Resume in Few Weeks
Iran said on Tuesday that talks with world powers over reviving its 2015 nuclear deal would resume in a few weeks, the official Iranian news agency IRNA reported. "Every meeting requires prior coordination and the preparation of an agenda. As previously emphasised, the Vienna talks will resume soon and over the next few weeks," Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh said, according to IRNA. The world powers held six rounds of indirect talks between the United States and Iran in Vienna to try and work out how both can return to compliance with the nuclear pact, which was abandoned by former US President Donald Trump in 2018. The Vienna talks were adjourned in June after hardliner Ebrahim Raisi was elected Iran's president and took office in August. Ministers from Britain, China, France, Germany and Russia will not meet jointly with Iran at the United Nations this week to discuss a return to the talks, European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell told reporters … [Read more...] about Iran Says Nuclear Talks with World Powers to Resume in Few Weeks

The incredible figures that describe England’s World Cup fever
World Cup fever has reached unprecedented levels in England, with the country grinding to a standstill as the Three Lions prepare to play their first World Cup semifinal in 28 years. Only Croatia stands between England and its first World Cup final since 1966. Fans are expected to leave work early to arrive home or to a pub or bar in time for the kickoff, which is scheduled for 7 p.m. local time. Britain's Automobile Association expects the country's roads will see heavier traffic earlier, and will be almost completely deserted during the game. "We are likely to see an earlier than normal rush hour from work, as despite a 7 p.m. kickoff, many venues screening the match get filled up hours before the game," said AA president Edmund King. "Rail commuters may also take earlier trains, perhaps worried about delays or staff shortages due to the match," he continued. "AA Roadwatch predicts that on Wednesday night the roads will be deserted from 7pm and much quieter than on Christmas … [Read more...] about The incredible figures that describe England’s World Cup fever
Final Two Polls of Tennessee Senate Race Give Blackburn Lead
The final two polls of the Tennessee Senate race give Republican nominee Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN-07) leads of eight points and nine points over Democrat nominee Phil Bredesen, an average of eight-and-a-half points. The Emerson College Poll conducted between October 28 and October 30 gives Blackburn an eight point lead, 52 percent to 44 percent . The Fox News Poll conducted between October 28 and October 30 gives Blackburn a nine point lead, 50 percent to 41 percent . As recently as a month ago, the Real Clear Politics Average of Polls showed the race as a statistical tie. But Bredesen has stumbled badly over the past several weeks, and Blackburn has benefited from her steadfast support of President Trump, who headlined a rally attended by an estimated 12,000 people in Chattanooga on Sunday night to support her candidacy. On October 2, the Real Clear Politics Average of Polls showed the race to be dead even, with each candidate receiving 46.5 percent of the vote. … [Read more...] about Final Two Polls of Tennessee Senate Race Give Blackburn Lead
