PARIS -- In defiance of angry French officials, the United Nations disrupted Paris Fashion Week today to deliver emergency all-you-can-eat buffets and pot-luck suppers to starving female fashion models.
"We could not let the humanitarian crisis on Paris catwalks continue," U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan said. "The world community had to act to save the models of Paris from their own astounding stupidity and bad taste."
Under pressure from the World Health Organization, the French government changed the name of the country's most famous fashion show from "Ready to Wear" to "Ready to Eat" to encourage the models to stop at the buffet tables. The situation was so dire that U.N. peacekeepers and WHO medics were forced to set up buffets along the edges of catwalks to prevent models from collapsing from exhaustion and malnutrition during the show.
U.N. observers expected France to veto the Security Council resolution ordering the airlifts, but the chain-smoking French ambassador to the U.N. missed the vote when, in compliance with New York City's indoor smoking ban, he had to spend the entire session on the sidewalk.
Poor French waifs!

I agree with David that not all fashion models are starving. Im really skinny and everyone always thinks im anorexic, but i eat more than my parents. I eat every chance i get actually because im never full, i just have a really fast metabolism. Plus i have really small bones unlike most people, which makes it look like im really skinny too.

i agree, not all models are too skinny, but, some really skinny ones eg. lily cole, have been told that they're too big!! i think thats conpletely retarded! honestly.
i think that models shouldn't be too skinny tho, iv heard of models competing to see who can eat the least,

Give Me a Break, I have the exact same problem! I'm really skinny and I eat like a pig but I have a fast metabolism and I just loose weight too easily! And it's not my fault but everyone thinks I am anerexic or binge and I hate it!

I agree one hundred percent. Not everyone who is skinny doesn't a lot. That's stereotypical to people. And that is not fair in anyway. I'm the exact same. I am 5' 5'' and still growing and i still don't weigh 100 pounds. I am called tooth pick and used to be called anprexic al the time. But nowpeople know i eat like a pig! I ALWAYS eat. Now i'm called fatty or the fattest skinniest person they know, of course in a joking way. But again I agree just because you maybe fat and ugly shaped and you cant be a model doesnt mean you should go and say people dont eat! that just aint right. you can shove that crap in your fat rolls and be jealous all you want!

i dont live in Paris, i live in america but i soo think their outfits are sooo cute i would soo bye them but i dont no where to were them. they look so pretty too but they should smile and aact like they enjoy their job. they look soo boring. i so want to be skinny as them, i am but i still have my baby fat that i want to get ride of.

even if some of you dont think theyre too skinny..that doesnt mean they arent sending a bad message to SOMEONE. anyone who isnt as skinny as them could look at them and think thats whaat beautiful is and begint to develope unhealthy habits to lose weight. also younger girls need to see more than the super skinny girls (weather they are healthy or have a disorder) in the media.
i think all these skinny models are ridiculous and should realize there is more to life than being skinny

So summer is fast approaching i was wondering, if the latest fashion and the average UK woman mix. The average UK woman is a size 16 and 5ft4 (or so the internet has told me). The fashion at the moment seems to be tight floral short dresses and cropped tops. These clothes look good on models, but do you think they look good on the average person

The order of seating around the table among the Eastern Slavs Identify and subordination of diners, reflecting a visual model of age, gender and social stratification group, with "up" and the right side usually means greater prestige, and "bottom" and the left side - lower. The most honorable was considered at the head table in the corner under the icons. If the family does not have a father, his place was taken by a senior married son, if he was not married, then the rule belonged to the mother. Women tend to mature, could take the place of honor at the table and during certain ceremonies: godfather at the christening. godmother to one of the young at his wedding. Saw to it that the owner sat in the corner under the icons. otodvinuvshis a little, as if leaving room for God, for the Belarusian proverb - "in Kut syadzit album by the pop, the album is a fool." It is still possible to hear the explanation that women do not sit in the corner, because they are "unclean", ie they are menstruating.

i like this part of blog: "Under pressure from the World Health Organization, the French government changed the name of the country's most famous fashion show from "Ready to Wear" to "Ready to Eat" to encourage the models to stop at the buffet tables."

Right now my gun collection right now is mostly just Eastern Block Military peices. I love them all, and have lots of fun shooting them, however none of them are terribly valuable. I do have a few slightly more valuable peices such as a Browning Challenger III, a Ruger GP100, and a Ruger P89, and a Remington 870 Express Magnum 12 Gauge. I'd like to add a few more collectable and valuable guns to my collection, but I'd like some suggestions.

While it seems that lately, several media outlets have been treating them like they have a particular knowledge on the subject of dog bites and attacks (I'll get to a possible "why" on that later in the post), it doesn't erase the reality that dogsbite.org is simply a website run almost entirely by an individual person who has an expertise in web design, access to google, and a desire to seek revenge on an attack that happened to her several years. Those are the qualifications behind the website. And it runs no deeper than that. And treating the website as anything more than that is a recipe bad information that will lead to less safe circumstances for people and dogs. Let me explain.

I like the cut of this program always supporting new or potential new talent, now I wonder, that parties will be all of this production, in humiliating many seriously in finding new talent? Thanks for the blog is very good ..

People who had quit smoking exhibited happy mood during the checkups. Isn’t this reason enough for the people to quit smoking. I read here it is possible to quit the habit naturally and with the help of medicines.
