North Korea could have resumed reprocessing plutonium
Vienna - Arab Today
The International Atomic Energy Agency(IAEA) said that North Korea could have resumed reprocessing spent fuel rods to produce plutonium.
In a media conference in Vienna on Monday, the IAEA Director-General Yukiya Amano revealed the suspicion. "We have found indications of certain activities through satellite imagery." South Korean (KBS World Radio) reported. "It is deeply regrettable that the DPRK has shown no indication that it is willing to comply with security council resolutions..."
The watch dog head added that he does not have inspectors on the ground to provide anything more definite. But, he pointed to movements of vehicles and steam coming out of the North's nuclear site in Yongbyon where its five megawatt reactor is located.
The IAEA has been monitoring the Yongbyon nuclear facility through satellite imageries since the North expelled nuclear inspectors in 2009.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris.

The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
