On a wall-mounted screen, Marilyn Monroe sings a chorus from "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" next to a picture of Kristin Scott Thomas pulling off a peroxide wig to reveal the dark hair in a new exhibit on movies and women's hair.


"Brunette/Blonde?", which opened this month at the Paris cinematheque, uses film and television archives, photography and art to retrace how generations of movie makers have used women's hair to seduce and shape their times.


Penelope Cruz stares out from underneath a platinum wig, her sultry Latin looks camouflaged for the camera, for the poster of the show.


"Women's hair is a constant motif for all filmmakers, in all films," said curator Alain Bergala, whether curled and glamorous like Veronica Lake, wild and loose like Brigitte Bardot, or cropped and rebellious like Jean Seberg.


Above all, he said, "the 20th century was the century of blonde imperialism" -- and nowhere more so than on the film sets of Hollywood.


Illustrating the point: a pre-war US archive clip of Lana Turner gives women detailed tips on how to achieve the same hairstyle, with short blonde curls wound cherub-like around her head.


In another, Jane Fonda talks on camera about her early experience of the film industry -- how it judged her too dark to be "commercial", so that for 10 years she was forced to dye her hair and lashes blonde.


A kaleidoscope of "Elle" magazine covers shows Catherine Deneuve through the ages, polished, thick locks at shoulder length in the 1960s to frizzy-haired blonde in the 1980s -- each time a model of femininity for her generation.


But even in the movie world, the image of the blonde flickered back and forth between "pure and impure."


Until the 1930s, the blonde was the demure housewife, and the brunette was cast as a temptress. Then the tables turned -- the blonde taking over as femme fatale, an enduring myth that culminated in the figure of Marilyn Monroe.


"At each period, the viewer knows how to tell the good girl from the bad, even if the codes have changed," said Bergala.


Later, the show moves the viewer away from the stereotype of the eternal rivals on to the 1990s and the cinema of David Lynch and his "idea that there is a blonde and a brunette inside every woman," said Bergala.


In Lynch's "Lost Highway", Patricia Arquette plays both sides of a female figure -- dark and blonde. In "Mulholland Drive" the twin heroines, blonde and dark, are caught in a complex play on identity.


The Paris show also aims for a broader historical sweep, looking at the politics of hair throughout the decades.


From the 19th century Suffragettes or 1920s flappers to Jean Seberg's now-classic crop in the 1960s, short hair symbolised women's liberation, while Black Panther activists adopted the afro as a means of protest.


One gem -- a US propaganda film from World War II -- enjoins women to ditch Veronica Lake-style locks for shorter, practical styles better suited to working on factory machines in the war effort.


On a darker note, the show also highlights how the Nordic cult of blondness was adopted by Nazi Germany as a symbol of racial purity, spreading to Josef's Stalin's Soviet Union which celebrated the ideal of the blonde peasant -- and on to the film studios of the United States.


The Western myth excluded blacks, hispanics and ethnic minorities, but the show makes a point of touching on hair's role in other cultures -- from Japan to the Middle East, Africa or India.


"In Indian cinema, when two characters fall in love they cannot be shown kissing, so they convey emotion by showing the woman's hair lifting in the breeze," said the curator.


Bergala commissioned six filmmakers from around the world to produce short films for the exhibit, including one by Iran's Abbas Kiarostami which closes the visit.


In the film, four-year-old Rebecca stares straight into the camera, all smiles with her chubby pink cheeks, bright green eyes and long chestnut plait.


But when told her lovely locks might have to be snipped off for the purpose of the plot, she falters, chin wavering and little face dropping as she understands the decision facing her.


It takes a few moments but Rebecca's choice is clear: Forget making me a movie star -- I'm keeping my hair.

Kim Kardashian celebrate her 30th birthday

Kim Kardashian took Tao in Las Vegas on Friday to celebrate her 30th birthday (which isn't until Oct. 21) with her sisters.


Then on Saturday the party moved back to the Big Apple, where Kim toasted her birthday with Ciara, Adrien Grenier and more at Tao NYC's 10-year anniversary bash.


So what does she think of her new city and the men there?


"I love New York," she told me Friday night. "It's so fashion-forward. And I love living with Mason. I get to wake up to him every day."


And her adorable nephew is the only boy she's waking up to right now.


"Unfortunately, it really is kind of tough dating when you live your life on a reality show, so you gotta be careful," she explained. "Do the guys really want to meet you to be on the show—or the ones that you really like don't wanna be on the show. So right now my love life is kind of nonexistent. But I'm 30 and it's my birthday and I'm not going to think about that!"


And if you thought the birthday celebrations were over after back-to-back blowout parties in two different cities, think again.


Although Scott Disick was MIA from both bashes, Kourtney said he's organizing yet another soiree for Kim on her actual birthday.


"He's planning Kim's New York birthday bash," Kim's sister told me. "Kim doesn't just have one party."

Kate Moss secretly wed her rock guitarist boyfriend Jamie Hince in a ceremony in Sicily in August, according to reports in Britain on Friday.

Moss, 36, and Hince, 40, exchanged vows before a handful of friends and family in a ceremony on the Mediterranean island, the Daily Mirror tabloid reported.

The model walked up the aisle barefoot and wore a see-through white gown for the ceremony in a small church.

Her daughter Lila Grace, from a previous relationship with magazine editor Jefferson Hack, was one of three ring bearers at the wedding.

Moss met Hince, guitarist with The Kills, three years ago.

The Daily Mirror reported that the wedding plans had been kept secret because the couple wanted to avoid media coverage.

Following the ceremony, local villagers reportedly joined in the celebrations outside the church.

Before her relationship with Hince, Moss had been romantically involved with Hollywood star Johnny Depp and wayward rocker Pete Doherty

Italian short film "Big Bang Big Boom" directed by Blu was awarded late Saturday the top prize at international animation festival Anim'est in Bucharest.

The jury praised the creation for its "inventive and monumental execution". Produced in 2010, "Big Bang Big Boom" evokes evolution and its possible consequences in a non-scientific manner.

French-Italian co-production "Eleanor's Secret" by Dominique Monfery received the prize for the best feature film, while South Korean director Yumi Jung was awarded the prize for best short film for her "Dust Kid".

Created last year to stimulate animation in the region, the Balkanimation section gave its award to a Bosnian-Canadian co-production, "Once upon a many time" by Eva Cvijanovic. The film explores relationships with places and people when forced to leave home.

The award for the best Romanian film in competition went to Cecilia Felmeri for her animated documentary "Mathias, Mathias".

This fifth edition of Anim'est, one of the main animation festivals in Eastern Europe, screened 511 films from 46 countries and featured American director Alex Budovsky as a special guest.

Hollywood star Angelina Jolie said Friday that she wants to meet a group of war victims to clear up any misunderstanding after Bosnia revoked her licence to film this week.

Her licence to shoot scenes in Sarajevo and the central town of Zenica in November was cancelled when the Women Victims of War (WVW) association complained after media reports the film would depict a love story between a Muslim victim and her Serb rapist.

"I have great respect for all the work of the WVW association ... and I would like the opportunity to speak with them to personally clear up any misunderstandings about this project," Jolie said in a statement issued through the UN refugee agency, the UNHCR, in Bosnia.

She added that part of the reason to make her first movie as a director was to remind people of what happened during the 1992-95 war in Bosnia and to give attention to the survivors of the conflict that left some 100,000 people dead.

"My hope is that people will hold judgement until they have seen the film," she added.

Bakira Hasecic of the WVW, whose members are all wartime rape victims, said Friday that she would gladly meet with Jolie.

"We would like her to show us the script so we can see if it contains elements that falsify history and the truth," she said.

Hasecic has not seen the script yet and the WVW complaints were based solely on the press reports.

A local production company working with Jolie on the project said Thursday that they had sent the script of the as yet untitled movie to the culture ministry of Bosnia's Muslim-Croat Federation.

Edin Sarkic, a representative of the company, was confident they would get their filming license reinstated and insisted that the film was not a rape love story.

On Friday Sarkic said he had not yet heard back from the ministry since he submitted the script.

"They told me to be patient," he said, adding that he was "reassured that things will be worked out".

"It would be a shame for all of us on the project and the local crew in Sarajevo, if unfair pressure based on wrong information were to prevent us from shooting in Bosnia," Jolie's production company for the project GK Films said in a separate statement Friday.

International organisations have estimated that thousands of women were raped during the 1991-95 Bosnian war that was sparked by the break-up of the communist federation of Yugoslavia.

In February 2001, the UN war crimes court for the former Yugoslavia convicted three Bosnian Serbs of crimes against humanity and war crimes after they were found guilty of rape and forced prostitution of Bosnian Muslim women in the southeastern town of Foca.

The verdict marked the first time an international court had ruled that rape was a crime against humanity.

Jolie, one of Hollywood's highest paid actresses, has hired mostly local Bosnian actors for the English-language movie and will not appear in it herself.

The 35-year-old, who most recently starred in the spy thriller "Salt", paid a surprise visit to Sarajevo in August when she called on Bosnian leaders to speed up the return of thousands of refugees from the civil war.

At least 10 people died in a stampede at a temple in the eastern Indian state of Bihar where tens of thousands of devotees had gathered for an annual Hindu festival, police said Sunday.

Another 15 people were injured in the stampede which occurred late Saturday outside a temple in Banka district, some 200 kilometres (125 miles) from state capital of Patna, senior police officer P.K. Thakur said.

The victims had gathered to witness the sacrifice of goats in line with Hindu religious traditions, Thakur said, adding 40,000 devotees had thronged the temple at the time of the stampede.

Four women were among those killed.

Religious gatherings are a part of daily life in India and people across the entire social spectrum participate regularly.

 Britain’s Daily Mail reports that a 17-week-old fetus was captured smiling in a sonogram scan. According to the publication, “The scan ... implies that a baby can experience feelings such as happiness and pain much earlier in its development than previously thought.”


The child in the image belongs to Louise and Sam Henry from Swallowfield, Berkshire, who have indicated that they are shocked to see such an image in what is typically a routine scan.


Mr. Henry said, “Your primary concern at that stage is that you have a healthy baby but to see the fetus smiling was absolutely fantastic.”


Baby Henry is due in January.


Pro-life advocates have cited a variety of reasons to reject abortion, including the presence of alternative options like adoption, health risks to the mother, and the immoral use of federal tax dollars to finance such a procedure. However, the primary reason cited by pro-life advocates to reject abortion is the notion that life begins at conception. A smiling fetus helps to support this notion, as it shows that what has been classified as a “group of cells” by pro-abortion advocates is capable of human emotion.


Likewise, the scan contests claims made by pro-choice supporters that fetuses are incapable of feeling pain or any senses while in the womb, an argument that has been used to dispute claims that abortions are painful procedures to the fetus.


The image was taken by Professor Stuart Campbell, former head of obstetrics and gynecology at King’s College and St. George’s hospitals in London, with 3-D and 4-D scanning equipment. According to Campbell, the image does not necessarily show that the unborn child has feelings, but that it was capable of “displaying human behavior.”


Campbell does not fully understand what caused the smile, but ventured a guess that it involves the same elements that cause a crying face: “It is part of a sequence that involves yawning and making breathing movements and opening its eyelids and, of course, it makes a crying face.”


Of course, some critics claim that the smiling face is no indication of human emotion. Eric Jauniaux, professor of obstetrics and fetal medicine at University College London, for example, asserts, “There is no emotion or feeling at this stage. The evidence of gain and feeling is from 24 or 28 weeks.”


Jauniaux adds, “At 17 weeks the connection between the brain and the rest of the body is very limited.”


On the other hand, Dr. Yehundi Gordon of the Viveka gynecology clinic in London claims, “All the emotional centers that we will ever have during our lives are fully formed by the time we are born. At 17 weeks the baby could be smiling or it could be the facial muscles getting together in preparation for sucking and feeding.”


The fetal image is reminiscent of the now-famous picture of the fetus reaching out to grab a surgeon’s finger during fetal surgery. Despite the debate that arose from that released photograph, photographer Michael Clancy confirmed that the 21-week old fetus Samuel Armus reached out from his mother’s womb and grasped Dr. Joseph Bruner’s finger as he performed a successful spina bifida surgery on the fetus in 1999.


According to a nurse present during the surgery, babies undergoing surgery do that “all the time.”


As far as the smiling fetus, Professor Campbell concludes, “This is a joyful expression of the humanity of the fetus. I have seen a fetus making a crying face at around 18 or 19 weeks, but not a nice smile. This is the earliest on record — It is just a delight.”

Hepatitis A  is an acute infectious disease of the liver caused by the hepatitis A virus (HAV), which is most commonly transmitted by the fecal-oral route via contaminated food or drinking water. Every year, approximately 10 million people worldwide are infected with the virus. The time between infection and the appearance of the symptoms, (the incubation period), is between two and six weeks and the average incubation period is 28 days.
In developing countries, and in regions with poor hygiene standards, the incidence of infection with this virus is high and the illness is usually contracted in early childhood. HAV has also been found in samples taken to study ocean water quality. Hepatitis A infection causes no clinical signs and symptoms in over 90% of infected children and since the infection confers lifelong immunity, the disease is of no special significance to the indigenous population. In Europe, the United States and other industrialized countries, on the other hand, the infection is contracted primarily by susceptible young adults, most of whom are infected with the virus during trips to countries with a high incidence of the disease.
Hepatitis A does not have a chronic stage, is not progressive, and does not cause permanent liver damage. Following infection, the immune system makes antibodies against HAV that confer immunity against future infection. The disease can be prevented by vaccination, and hepatitis A vaccine has been proven effective in controlling outbreaks worldwide.

LONDON: Aaron Sorkin, flanked by Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield and Justin Timberlake, landed in the British capital Thursday ahead of the U.K. rollout of "The Social Network" and the start of its overseas' quest for Oscars and British Academy voter attention.

Organized by Sony Pictures, Sorkin provided heavyweight answers on his role in bringing the movie to the big screen while at the same time filling big shoes in the absence of the movie's director David Fincher.

Fincher is, as Sorkin reminded the room, shooting the English-language remake of "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo," under the watchful eye of "Social Network" producer Scott Rudin in Sweden.

When asked how much his studio backers had sweated over making a fictional movie about real-life characters, all of whom are still alive, Sorkin made no bones about how important it had been to get everything checked.

"I can't speak to how much a studio sweats generally but I can say there was absolutely nothing left to chance with this movie." Sorkin said. "There is a moral obligation not to mess around with someone's life for the sake of a good movie scene."

His script, he said, was subject to constant legal checks. "I was required to deliver an annotated script to the studio, by which I mean one with notes on the [multiple] sources for everything that is said," Sorkin said.

He name-checked Amy Pascal at Sony and his producers for being fully behind the project from the word go: "I want to thank them for making the movie without saying you're going to have to put some sugary frosting into it."

But for a film that tells the story of how the social network of the title Facebook was created in a Harvard dorm room and wound up creating the world's youngest billionaire who is -- less than eight years later -- only 26, everyone involved is a great pains to explain one thing.

Neither Eisenberg, Garfield, Timberlake nor Sorkin are on the popular social networking website. Garfield used to be on it, he said, but isn't anymore. All noted its use to attract greater attention to charity events or social issues. But as individuals, Facebook isn't really their thing

At least 29 fuel-carrying lorries, meant for Nato troops fighting in Afghanistan, caught fire after unidentified armed men opened fire here in Mithri area in Balochistan on late Friday, Geo News reported.


This attack is the fifth of its kind since October 1st. “27 oil containers for Nato supplies were heading to Afghanistan from Karachi when some unknown gunmen opened indiscriminate fire on those in Mithri locality of Bolan district in Balochistan”, official from Levies Forces said.


He said: “Firing resulted in eruption of fierce ablaze which engulfed 27 oil tankers in no time.”


“Fire fighting crew has been called in from Sibi district to bring raging blaze under control”, he told media.


Meanwhile, Levies Forces have surrounded the locality and have commenced search operation, he said.


This attack on Nato supplies is the fifth in a row since October 1st. Also, miscreants have torched Nato supply containers in Shikarpur, Islamabad, Quetta and Nowsehra before this.

She looks as if she’s dancing at home in front of a mirror: At her Glamour photo shoot in Nashville, 20-year-old Taylor Swift is skipping, jumping, shimmying her shoulders and lip-synching the words to Phoenix’s pop song “1901.” In truth, she’s vamping for the photographer, and what I am seeing before me is a pro, an artist who seems to have matured by leaps and bounds since 15 months ago, when I interviewed her on the set of her Fearless tour in Biloxi, Mississippi. Not that I should be surprised: This has been the Year of Taylor Swift. Apparently, it wasn’t enough to have the top-selling album of 2009, or to become the female artist with the most Top 40 singles this decade (take that, Kanye!). No, this year she topped even herself: She was named one of Time magazine’s 100 most influential people in the world, won four Grammys, including Album of the Year, met Bill Clinton and sang onstage with Stevie Nicks.


After Swift finishes the shoot and sits down, she’s out of breath, but for her that’s the new normal. A full four days after moving into her brand-new condo, she’s logged precisely 10 minutes of downtime in her home. Tonight is no exception: She’ll be meeting Paul McCartney, who is playing in Nashville for the very first time. “I can’t wait!” she says. With her new album, Speak Now, about to drop, she opened up to Glamour and filled us in on everything that’s happened—and everything that’s to come.


GLAMOUR: This has been a crazy year for you: Have you had time to appreciate what you’ve achieved, or is it too much to take in?


TAYLOR SWIFT: I’ve gone through a few different phases of gratitude. When it’s happening, you’re all about [what’s next] and trying not to make a misstep. When it came time to lock myself away and make my next album, I had a feeling of, Wow, that really was something, wasn’t it? I drive down the same streets I used to drive years ago, when I was just dreaming about stuff like this. So I feel total happiness and anticipation for the next thing.


GLAMOUR: What is next?


TAYLOR SWIFT: My next album is something I’m really proud of. I can only write about what I’ve been through. And a lot has happened in the past two years.


GLAMOUR: Like that song about Kanye [who famously dissed her at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards]?


TAYLOR SWIFT: [Laughs.] Everything that happens to me gets put into a song. For some reason, I’m really comfortable talking about my personal life in songs. There, I don’t hold back: names, dates, times, expressions on people’s faces, exactly where we were and how it felt, what I wish I would have said to them in the moment. So I’m not only excited about sharing the songs with fans; I’m also pretty interested to hear the response from the guys I’ve written about on this record.
