Geneva 4 and the shifting shape of Syria diplomacy</h1>
<div style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

With a parallel track of talks and an amended agenda, the diplomatic process to end Syria's war is transforming.</h2>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; color: black; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 0.8em !important; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
The fourth round of UN-led Syria talks, dubbed Geneva 4, wrapped up last week with a tentative agreement between warring sides on an agenda for future negotiations - but a problematic work plan coupled with shifting international priorities could draw out the already lengthy diplomatic process.</div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; color: black; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 0.8em !important; margin-top: 0.8em; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
For nine days, United Nations special envoy Staffan de Mistura met separately with delegations from the Syrian government and three different opposition groups in an effort to end six years of <a href="http://www.aljazeera.com/topics/country/syria.html" style="background: transparent; color: rgb(250, 144, 0) !important; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: bottom;" target="_self">bloody war</a>.</div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; color: black; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 0.8em !important; margin-top: 0.8em; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
But the negotiations, the first in 10 months, turned out be little more than closed-door consultations - evidence of a diplomatic process kept on life-support by the international community for lack of any other option.</div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; color: black; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 0.8em !important; margin-top: 0.8em; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Any real movement on the key opposition demand for a political transition remained stalled amid disagreements over the make-up of the opposition delegation and the government's demand to add "counterterrorism" as a core subject of negotiation.</div>

PARIS: Paris fashion week shows tend to be held at the city´s most opulent addresses, grand chandeliered salons dripping with marble and gilt. But new brand Sirloin gave tradition the bum´s rush by presenting its debut collection this weekend in one of the French capital´s most well appointed public toilets.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4a4848; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Designers Mao Usami and Alve Lagercrantz said their odd choice of venue was meant to play tribute to "a place that allows the trivial, silly yet brilliant questions and ideas in life to flow free".</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4a4848; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
They said it was time to bring the smallest room out of the closet, as models revealed the designers´ autumn-winter collection by opening the mahogany cubicle doors of the historic Madeleine public toilets in central Paris.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4a4848; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
The pair are not the only ones to have toyed with convention.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4a4848; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Saint Laurent held its catwalk show on a building site on Tuesday night, while French designer Delphine Delafon staged hers Saturday as a Sicilian wake-cum-funeral with 15 models in widow´s reeds silently mourning over a man´s body.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4a4848; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
"The king is dead," the designer said in her notes to the show, "Long live the queens!" <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Usami, who has worked for Louis Vuitton and Dries Van Noten, told AFP that toilets were the world´s great refuges.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4a4848; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
They are the place where you go to hide "when you are pretending you are working, but you are just escaping and having a break," she said.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4a4848; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
"We encourage everyone to accept their own twisted thoughts and strangest habits.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4a4848; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
The worse, the better!"</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4a4848; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
The award-winning Shanghai-based couple, who are Japanese and Swedish, said they built their collection from the underwear out, "merging lingerie with ready-to-wear" suits and street wear.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4a4848; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Invitations to the show came with a vanity pack of folded toilet paper.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #4a4848; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
The designers insisted, however, that the venue was not a stunt, claiming the collection "focuses on the intellectual questions that every Sirloin girl would ask herself during their brief moments in the toilet".</div>
