NEW YORK (AP) — While Kristen Stewart promoted a new film in Toronto, her one-time romantic rival took to the runway. Liberty Ross, the wife of "Snow White and the Huntsman" director Rupert Sanders, walked the catwalk during the Alexander Wang show on Saturday at New York Fashion Week wearing a white wind-breaker with a pencil skirt.

Pity the poor novelists their narcissism, catastrophic imaginations, crippling nostalgia and chewed-up fingernails, their remainder notices and well-meaning relatives ("How's the book going?"), their weak eyes and exhausted livers, but perhaps pity them most of all because this whole process, from idea germ to pub date, takes so very, very long. Spike Lee was able to premiere his documentary "When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts" a mere 12 months...

The Minnesota job market's gradual recovery from the Great Recession has come with a pronounced shift in the type of work available, with a growing share of openings in the lowest-paying positions. Almost 36 percent of vacancies today pay a median wage of $10 an hour or less, according to a Star Tribune analysis of state data. Meanwhile, the portion of jobs that pay $10 to $25 an hour has dropped sharply, from nearly two-thirds of openings a decade ago to 43 percent now. The labor data shows that while the state's economy has resumed growing, recovering more than half the jobs it lost to the recession, it is also changing in ways that work against the traditional middle class. "There...

By Langi Chiang and Nick Edwards BEIJING (Reuters) - China's annual rate of consumer inflation ticked up to 2.0 percent in August from July's 30-month low of 1.8 percent, official data showed on Sunday, suggesting that room to ease monetary policy to shore up growth may be narrowing.

Julia Fuhrman Davis, who lives in the same area south of town, considers the drilling — known as hydraulic fracturing or fracking — to be a threat, and she’s angry that there is little citizens can do. Their concerns are twofold: The rich discoveries of oil and gas in eastern Ohio have brought a surge in drilling, but eight years ago, the Ohio legislature and former Gov. Bob Taft stripped local governments of control. The Ohio Department of Natural Resources is now in charge. The two activists are involved in grass-roots campaigns to give communities...
