Top universities to get chance to grow
London - Arabstoday
England's most sought-after universities will be allowed to expand as a result of the biggest shake-up in higher education for nearly half a century. A long-awaited government White Paper, to be published next week, will let them increase entry numbers to take in students who obtain at least two A grades and a B at A-level. Until now, numbers have been capped. The move is aimed at universities like Oxford and Cambridge which annually turn away thousands of students with straight A grade passes. Ministers also plan to allow universities charging the cheapest fees to expand in a belated bid to encourage lower prices. From / The Independent

To 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Al Maghrib Today
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" opened 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.
