Back to square one in terms of election law
Minister of State for Women's Affairs, Jean Ogassapian
Beirut - Arab Today
Minister of State for Women's Affairs, Jean Ogassapian, said in an interview with the Voice of Lebanon 100.3-100.5 radio station "that things are back to square one on the subject of the election law," expressing regret "because all the experiments have confirmed that it would be difficult, if not impossible, to reach a law formula that satisfies all parties."
"The joint committees have discussed 17 laws, and an understanding was made then over 5 suggestions. Later on, the quadripartite meetings began and it was agreed on the adoption of a mixed law that combines the proposals of Parliament Speaker, Nabih Berri, the Lebanese Forces, the Future and the Progressive Socialist party. It is clear that this proposal is facing difficulties at present," Ogassapian noted.
"We are facing a dead end as president Aoun insist that there is no return to the 60s law," he concluded.

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 Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. 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. It includes the dress worn by supermodel Naomi Campbell, his longtime friend and muse, when she led
