Kohl is so commonly worn in the area that girls are sometimes named or nicknamed Kahla by their parents or friends, roughly meaning “the girl who appears to have kohl around her eyes.” Kohl is also a feature of many millennia-old myths, rituals, and legends. “Even if she doesn’t (make kohl) anymore, I will for sure continue to do this myself,” Abu Issa said.

NO ONE would call me a ring guy. My hands have been bare as long as I can remember. Recently, though, I realized I might be missing a style trick. Fashionable celebs like Timothée Chalamet and “Euphoria” star Jacob Elordi regularly dress up their digits. And cooler jewelers such as New York’s Martine Ali, and London’s Alan Crocetti and Alighieri, are making fresh, covetable designs that won’t have you resembling an aged rocker or Captain Jack Sparrow.

Twitter employees sobbed in the bathroom at a Halloween party over fears of being laid off, the Verge reported. A program manager told Insider that after Elon Musk's takeover, staff panicked about coming layoffs. She said she found out she had been laid off when she was kicked off Twitter's work systems. Musk then identified 3,700 people — roughly 50% of the company's 7,500 employees at the time — to be laid off, in his first week. Just hours after Twitter sent that email to staff, Lee noticed that some of her colleagues' accounts "started deactivating," she said.

Opinion The 22 Debates That Made Us Rage, Roll Our Eyes, and Change Our Minds in 2022Debating is what we do here at Times Opinion. To many, she was an icon: She ruled for 70 years, presided over the transition from empire to commonwealth and served as a living link to the generation that won World War II. (Though Ben Bernanke, a former Fed chairman himself, wrote in The Times that that wasn’t going to happen.) The United States and its European allies poured weapons and aid into Ukraine, but how was this going to end? As 2022 draws to a close, the fighting continues and peace talks look as distant as ever — which probably means that the debates will continue.

(video) Recomandări de la Mircea, fără spoilere: cinci comedii care te vor face să râzi cu poftăE clar mai simplu să filmezi o dramă decât o comedie. Sub supravegherea pedantă a unui sensei enigmatic (Alessandro Nivola) și a colegei sale hardcore (Imogen Poots), Casey capătă un sentiment de încredere pentru prima dată în viață. Dacă vrei să faci cunoștință cu un Aki Kaurismaki american, acest film e cea mai bună ocazie.
