US Speaker John Boehner:
Obama 'out of excuses' for blocking Keystone pipeline
US Speaker John Boehner
Washington - Arab Today
A decision by the Nebraska Supreme Court on Friday clearing the way for the Keystone XL crude oil pipeline through the state means President Barack Obama can no longer delay the project, Reuters cited the top Republican in the U.S. House of Representatives as saying.
'President Obama is now out of excuses for blocking the Keystone pipeline and the thousands of American jobs it would create,' Speaker John Boehner said in a statement.
The House of Representatives is expected to pass a bill on Friday to approve the project. The White House has said Obama will veto the bill.

Paris - Muslimchronicle
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.
