Top NewsChinese President Stresses Reform, InnovationChinese President Xi Jinping has called for more reform and innovation as China prepares to enter its 13th 5-year Plan period from 2016 to 2020.
He made the remarks during the 18th meeting of the central leading group for comprehensively deepening reform on Monday.
President Xi stressed that the spirit of reform and innovation must be strengthened and the country's governance system should be modernized1.
The leading group has emphasized that the market should be allowed to play a decisive role in allocating2 resources, and China shall open its service sector4 wider.
Innovation was urged in processing trade so that China can gain a new edge in international competition while maintaining its traditional advantages.
Earlier last week, China's ruling party released a comprehensive proposal for the country's development over the next 5 years.
5 development ideas are stressed including innovation, coordination5, green development, opening up and sharing.
China to Further Develop Urbanization with More Registered Permanent Residents: OfficialAnchorChina plans to further develop urbanization by linking the pace of progress with land allocation for consturction purposes and transfer payments that local governments can gain.
CRI's Xie Cheng reports.
ReporterYang Weimin, vice3 minister of the Office of the Central Leading Group on Finance and Economic Affairs, says that some one third of permanent residents in urban areas are not able to enjoy certain rights because they are unregistered.
"Though China's urbanization rate has reached a comparatively high level of 55 percent, its quality is not that high. The major reflection is that among the 750 million permanent residents living in urban areas, some 250 million are not registered residents. Thus they can not enjoy the corresponding public services nor related citizen rights in the urban areas."Yang made the remarks when discussing a proposal for China's development plan in the next 5 years during a press conference held on Monday by the Information Office of the China's Cabinent.
He stressed that the current urbanization mode does not provide a good chance for migrant workers from rural areas to settle down and become permanent urban residents, and gives prominence7 to the problem of a shrinking working-age population in urban areas as well.
"Many of the migrant workers will leave the cities at around 40 years old, because they can't settle down in the cities and have to return to their rural hometowns. That means their working life will be around 20 years shorter than those in the urban labor8 forces."Yang said the fundamental resolution is to improve the quality and rate of urbanization and turn those migrant workers into real city dwellers9 with registered households.
To achieve that, the central government will take incentive10 measures to encourage local governments absorb more rural residents.
"For one thing, the amount of incremental11 construction land that a city is to receive will be correlated with the number of incremental registered population it has. More generally, it means the more registered permanent population a city receives, the more land it is to gain, for building houses for the population."Yang also mentioned the importance of the fiscal12 transfer payments a city will gain, since the government will spend more on services such as education and health if the city holds more registered permanent residents, meaning fiscal transfer payments will be significant for balancing the interests of different sectors13 of Chinese society.

Chinese Foreign Minister to Visit the PhilippinesChinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi will pay a working visit to the Philippines on Tuesday at the invitation of his Philippine counterpart Albert Del Rosario.
Foreign Ministry14 spokesman Hong Lei said at a regular news briefing on Monday that Wang will meet with Del Rosario and Philippine leaders in Manila on the sideline of Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Economic Leaders' Meeting next week.
Chinese President Xi Jinping will attend the summit after wrapping up the 10th Group of 20 meeting in Turkey next Monday.
China- Philippines relationship has been strained amid severe difficulties caused by disputes in the South China Sea over recent years.
Hong Lei said China is committed to resolving relevant issues with the Philippines through consultation16 and negotiation17.
1st Lancang-Mekong River Cooperation FMs' Meeting to be Held in ChinaThe first Lancang-Mekong River cooperation foreign ministers' meeting will be held on Thursday in southwest China's Yunnan Province.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei said leaders from across south-east Asia will attend the meeting.
Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi and his Thai counterpart Don Pra-mud-win-ai will co-chair the meeting.
It is the first meeting of the six foreign ministers and they are expected to announce the establishment of a Mekong-Lancang cooperation mechanism18.
The mechanism was proposed by Chinese Premier19 Li Keqiang in November 2014 when he attended the 17th China-ASEAN leaders' meeting in Myanmar.
Coal Burning Causes Northeast China's Air PollutionExperts said coal burning is the main cause behind the hazardous20 air pollution in northeast China over the past few days.
Local authorities in Liaoning province said the air pollution will continue until at least Saturday.
The air quality monitoring data from the provincial21 meteorological center shows that the PM2.5 pollutant22 level in Shenyang reached over 1,000 micro-grams per cubic meter over the weekend.
The amount of air pollutant in Shenyang increased since Oct. 31 when the city began its heating supply.
The coal-fired central heating system, emissions23 from industrial plants and the increasing use of cars are believed to be the major causes of air pollution in the region.
Li Jian, assistant manager of Shenyang Hunnan Heat Supplying Co, said they are trying to tackle the problem by upgrading their equipment.
"To meet the requirements of the environmental department, we have got rid of the equipment built in 2008. According to the new standards, sulfur24 dioxide density25 is reduced from 900 milligram per cubic meter to 200 milligram per cubic meter while dust density is reduced from 200 milligram per cubic meter to 30 milligram per cubic meter."Although it has been suggested that the region move from coal-powered heating to clean energy, that transition might take years.
China Expects Balanced Climate Agreement in Paris Conference: Vice PremierChinese Vice Premier Zhang Gaoli says China would like to work with all parties to push for the signing of a new universal and well-balanced agreement at the Paris climate change conference.
He promised China will actively28 promote international communication in the area and work to meet its international obligations.
Zhang added China will reinforce the "battles against pollution of air, water and soil," carrying out a series of protection and restoration projects concerning the rivers, mountains, forests and lakes.
UNEP Report Acknowledges Beijing Air Quality ImprovementsA report evaluating Beijing's control measures on coal-burning and vehicle emissions said progress has been made in improving the city's air quality over the past 15 years.
The report was jointly30 released by the United Nations Environment Programmme and the Beijing Environmental Protection Bureau on Monday.
Former Chairman of the Board from the International Council on Clean Transportation, Michael Walsh, acknowledged the positive effects of the measures.
"They introduced clean fuels, lead-free gasoline, low-sulphur diesel31 fuel, state of the art vehicle technologies. They've gone from virtually very weak standards in the late 90s to Euro-five-equivalent standards now here in Beijing, faster than any other part of China."The UNEP report said Beijing has switched from coal to gas for electricity, eliminated old-model cars and implemented32 a lottery33 registration34 system for allocating car license35 plates.
Despite this progress, experts also concurred36 that there remain several issues to be resolved to improve the city's air quality, especially that of PM 2.5.
He Kebin, the dean of Tsinghua University's Department of Environment said Beijing's current average level of PM 2.5 particles is at 80 plus micrograms per cubic meter, which is still above the national standard of 35 micrograms per cubic meter.
He said the city should reach the national standard in 10 to 15 years.
Chinese Team Wins Breakthrough Prize for Neutrino ResearchAnchorA group of Chinese scientists has been awarded the 2016 Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics for their contribution of neutrino oscillation.
CRI's Victor Ning reports.
ReporterWang Yifang, from the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, attended the award ceremony of the 2016 Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics at the NASA Ames Research Centre.
"I attribute this prize to the joint29 and relentless38 efforts of our team members. And a lot of hard work has been done in the past 30 years for China's high-energy physics to have today's achievements."Established in 2006, the Daya Bay team discovered the value of the angle theta one-three, the last of three long-sought neutrino mixing angles, in 2012.
The groundbreaking achievement is based on analysis and measurements of how the oscillation process varies with neutrino energy by some 200 scientists from six countries and regions around the world.
Wang Yifang says the discovery is of great importance to neutrino research:
"This result laid a solid foundation for further research on cosmology and particle physics and provided a direction for further research on neutrino."This is the first time that Chinese scientists have won the prize.
The prize is one of three awarded by the Breakthrough Foundation for outstanding contributions in life sciences, fundamental physics, and mathematics.
He also awarded a three million U.S. dollars prize to the five winning teams.
Milner explains the rationale behind the sum of money offered as a prize by the foundation.
"It is a big enough number to send the message to the world that science is important. We need to keep in mind that the kind of scientists that are getting those prizes, they don't have the ability to use any intellectual property, because discovery belongs to everyone, from the time it's been discovered. So we made it so that everything that the scientists discover belongs to everyone, that's why they usually don't make a lot of money. "The other four teams honored are KamLand, K2K/T2K, and Super-Kamiokande from Japan, as well as the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory40 from Canada.

China-developed Stealth Fighter FC-31 Makes Debut41 at Dubai AirshowAnchorA new Chinese-made stealth fighter, the FC-31, has made its international debut at the 14th Dubai Airshow.
CRI's XYee reports.
ReporterLin Peng, FC-31's chief designer, says the fighter can be customized according to users' demands.
"The users can designate domestic or International suppliers to provide communications equipment, sensors42 and guided weapons. The FC-31 is expected to make its first flight in 2019. It will reach its initial operating capability43 in 2022. And by 2024, the FC-31 will have full operational capability."The twin-engine, radar-evading stealth fighter was developed by the Aviation Industry Corporation of China, or AVIC.
Deputy general manager Li Yuhai says the FC-31 is equal to other types of fighters of the same class in terms of its platform and systems performance, and is also cost effective.
"No matter if it's in terms of the cost of a single fighter or in terms of the cost throughout a fighter's whole life cycle, the FC-31 is better than any other fighter of the same class."Named Shenyang J-31 in Chinese, the fighter made its maiden44 flight in late 2012 and was displayed to the public for the first time in late 2014 during China's International Aviation & Aerospace45 Exhibition.
The fighter's debut at Dubai Airshow marks the first time that China has introduced a domestically-built fighter jet on the international stage. In the past, China's roles have mainly involved production or supportive services.
The biennial46 Dubai Airshow, the biggest in the Middle East and Africa, was first held in 1989 and is considered to be one of the fastest growing air shows in the world. At the 2013 show, deals reached more than 20.6 billion U.S. dollars in total.
This year's event runs through Nov 12 and is expected to draw around 65,000 visitors from around the world.

Kissinger in China Elaborates on World OrderAnchorWell-known American politician Henry Kissenger, who made tremendous efforts to open communications with China, has traveled to Beijing to promote the Chinese edition of his new book, World Order.
CRI's Xu Fei reports.
ReporterHenry Kissinger is a well-known name in China. He is widely thought as an old, sincere friend of the Chinese people.
Dating back to 1971, Henry Kissinger, who was Nixon's National Security Advisor47, flew to Beijing, where his meetings with then Chinese leaders produced an agreement that President Nixon would visit China. That's the first-ever visit by a US president in history.
As an experienced senior diplomat48, Kissinger has many precious moments to recall, but he set his vision further away in the future in his book, World Order, as he himself explains:
"Somebody said to me, you really should write a book about the biggest problem in the world today. Don't write about history; write about the future. And so I wrote it. In all human history, there has never been a world order. In this sense,the whole world participated in creating an international system."Henry Kissinger wrote the book World Order in September 2014.
Within a year, the Chinese edition of World Order was published by CITIC Press Group.
According to the publisher, 200,000 books have been sold within the very first three months since it became available in China.
Fu Ying is the chairperson of Foreign Affairs Committee, National People's Congress.
"Kissinger's book in good sale in China reflects Chinese people's admiration49 for his rich knowledge and also experiences as a famous diplomat. His book would guide readers to travel along the route of history. The book vividly50 shows us those historical scenes which include confrontation51, conflicts and the real stories on initiating52 world peace, breaking it and re-seeking peace and stability."Under Kissinger's observation, there has never been a true "world order". Each country considers itself the center of the world and envisions its distinct principles as universally relevant.
China and the US, as the two important players in international politics, should first properly tackle their bilateral53 ties.
Kissinger offers compelling insights into the future of U.S.–China relations in this book.
"When the American and Chinese leaders meet, they have to learn not only their own interest, but the interests of the world. And they are making a serious effort; that statements of American president and Chinese presidents have been very positive about long-range objectives and they found ways of dealing54 with short range objectives. But now we have to work on middle range objectives since five years ahead. We haven't fully55 resolved that yet."In addition to U.S.–China relations, World Order also examines lessons from the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan and analyzes56 nuclear negotiations57 with Iran and tensions with Russia over Ukraine.

Gunman Kills Five in US Training Facility in JordanA gunman shot and killed five people at a US-funded security training facility near Jordan's capital Amman on Monday. The Jordanian government says the five include two US contractors58, a South African trainer and two Jordanians. The shooter was then shot dead.
The gunman was identified as Anwar Bani Abdu, and served as a senior co-trainer with the rank of captain.
The gunman's uncle Suleiman Al Saad cast doubts over the incident.
"I imagine that he was placed in a certain position, he was forced into a position which made him act this way."Al Saad added the family is now demanding a full investigation59 into the shooting.
U.S. President Barack Obama said he was treating the incident very seriously and that a full investigation was under way.
The gunman's motive60 was not immediately known. Jordan is a member of the US-led campaign against Islamic State militants62 in neighboring Syria and Iraq. Security sources said several earlier militant61 plots to attack the training center were foiled.
NLD Estimated to Win Sweeping63 Victory in Myanmar's Historic ElectionPreliminary results show that Myanmar's opposition64 party National League for Democracy or NLD has landed a sweeping victory in the country's first general election in 25 years.
The election commission indicates that the NLD led by Aung San Suu Kyi has won 25 seats in the lower house of parliament out of 28 seats declared.
NLD spokesman Win Htein on the victory.
"Rule of law. We need rule of law. We need peace because we want democratization and development of our country. We need peace. So we do our best for peace. Other time, acceptance of this thing depends on the government not military. One day they must erase65 the 25 percent. One day. Because they are not, undemocratic."The ruling Union Solidarity66 for Development Party's acting67 chairman U Htay Oo has conceded defeat and pledged to respect the results.
"Nationally, we have won some seats, but we also lost some seats. And generally speaking, USDP lost more seats than it won. The results are determined68 by the people. And as a party, USDP should serve the people and their interests. The final results have not been declared. But USDP will respect and accept the final results."A final vote count will be announced on Tuesday at the earliest.
EU Considers Setting up Balkan Processing Centers to Screen Asylum69 Claims: OfficialThe European Union is considering setting up processing centers in non-EU Balkan states to screen asylum claims by migrants heading north from Greece.
Luxembourg Foreign Minister Jean Asselborn made the announcement after EU interior ministers reviewed efforts to handle migrant related issues.
Asselborn noted70 that the numbers of migrants arriving on Greek islands was more than Athens could cope with, prompting the proposal for further facilities along the transit26 route from Greece through the Balkans.
"The concept must be explored further and defined, but such processing centres the length of the route could welcome migrants and begin either the asylum seeker process or, if it's the case, the return procedure. The idea is to be able to slow the flow in the case of situations where there is an enormous flow, as we are currently seeing."Last month, EU leaders agreed with Balkan countries, including Serbia and Macedonia, to ensure accommodation for 50,000 people in transit between Greece and the rest of the bloc71.
Global Warming Favors English Wine ProductionAnchorGlobal warming has produced some unexpected results in England. The country's wineries are flourishing, thanks to a warmer climate.
Here's CRI's Qian Shanming with more.
ReporterTraditionally, England's damp and chilly72 climate has proved a hindrance73 to local vineyards, as grapes need abundant sunlight to fully develop. But that is changing.
Professor Richard Selley, from Imperial College's department of Earth Science and Engineering, explains the northward74 movement of warmer climates is reshaping Europe's wine production.
"The effect of climate change is being seen across Europe. Vineyards in southern France and from Spain across to Italy and across to Greece are being abandoned because they are too hot. The ones on the lowland and are being replanted higher up where it is cooler. And so we are actually seeing this northward migration75 of viticulture."Varieties such as Sauvignon Blanc, Pino Noir and Chardonnay now abound76 in England, a phenomenon that is quite unthinkable in the years past.
"We can see quite clearly how places like Denbies which was planted 30 years ago was planted originally with very cool climate Germanic grape varieties. These are largely being replaced with French warmer climate varieties notably77 the holy trinity of pinot noir, pinot Meunier and Chardonnay for the sparkling white wines."The Queen has served English sparkling wine to distinguished78 guests at state banquets, including Chinese President Xi Jinping during his recent state visit to Britain and US President Barack Obama.
Sales of English sparkling wines have enjoyed a steady rise. Along with it, experts are also praising the improving taste of them.
"English sparkling wines, some people ask me 'is it an emerging sparkling wine region'? And I have to say: 'No it's emerged. It's already here. It's one of the top scoring sparkling wine regions there are in the world. And all of this has been achieved on very young vineyards as if you go back to 2000 there were hardly any chardonnay, pinot noir vineyards in the country and virtually no reserved stocks so if they managed to achieve that on young vineyards and no reserved stocks the future should be even better."England's 470 vineyards and 135 commercial wineries produced more than 6 million bottles last year, two thirds of which were sparkling wine. The industry association English Wine Producers says that amount is set to double in the coming decade or so.
The association says only 10% of England's production is exported; however, that number is expected to rise as producers hope to export as much as half of their wine.
Top export destinations include Asia, the Americas and parts of Europe, particularly Scandinavia.
Meanwhile, Professor Selley predicts a warmer global climate will keep pushing grape production northward, to places as far as Scotland.

Global Temperatures to Surpass 1 Degree Celsius81 above Pre-industrial LevelsGlobal mean temperature at the Earth's surface is set to reach one degree Celsius above pre-industrial levels this year.
The data was released by Britain's Met Office on Monday.
Director of the Met Office Hadley Center, Stephen Belcher, said there were similar natural events in the past, but it's clear that this time it is human influence driving the climate into such uncharted territory.
Early indications suggest 2016 will be similarly warm and it is expected that warming will continue in the longer term.
Peter Stott, who leads the Climate Monitoring and Attribution team in the Met Office, said people will see more and more years passing the one degree marker and that eventually it will become the norm.
Limiting the rise in Earth's temperatures to below two degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels is the core goal of the United Nations' upcoming climate summit in Paris.
One Dead after NYC Train Station ShootingThree people were shot on Monday morning near New York City's Penn Station and one has died.
The shooting happened at about 6 am local time, near a subway entrance one block away from the busy train station.

SportsWADA Finds Evidence of Doping, Cover-ups by Russian AthletesRussia's track and field athletes could all be banned for next year's Rio Olympic Games as the World Anti-Doping Agency is accusing them of doping and cover-ups.
A WADA commission found a deeply rooted culture of cheating in Russian athletes, prompted by a documentary by German journalist Hajo Seppelt.
Chair of the commission Dick Pound says they hope Russia can step up and turn the situation around, while recommending that its Athletic116 Federation117 be suspended.
"In fact one of our hopes is that they will volunteer that so they can undertake the remedial work in time to make sure that Russian athletes can compete under a new framework if you like. If they don't, it has to play itself out and the outcome may be that there are no Russian track and field athletes in Rio. I hope that they recognise that it is time to change and make those changes."A report released by the commission suggested evidences of a state-supported doping in that the intelligence service was involved.
The IAAF has responded by saying it will consider Pound's recommendation.
Its former president Lamine Diack is already under investigation for accepting bribes118 to cover-up Russia's doping cases.
The International Olympic Committee's Ethics119 Commission is recommending the provincial suspension of Diack as an IOC honorary member.
Current IAAF president Sebastian Coe calls these dark days for his sport. He is giving Russia until the end of the week to respond to the accusations120.
"The report is shocking, I don't think we can be coy or naive121 about that. And if the allegations that are also pending122, other than the subject of a criminal investigation, clearly this is a devastating123 position to be in."Russian sports minister Vitlay Mutko said there was no evidence for the accusations against the Federation.
German Football Association Head Steps DownPresident of the German Football Association Wolfgang Niersbach has stepped down over a FIFA payment that has resulted in a tax evasion124 probe.
Niersbach said after an emergency meeting that he was taking "political responsibility" for the affair, although he denied any personal wrongdoing.
Nierbach claims that there were things that happened without his knowledge and promises to clear things up.
"Things have happened that were partly only revealed in recent days which made me resign as a bearer of political responsibility. The office of the president of the DFB can not be burdened, it is also about my personal reputation but the office is above the person. That's the reason for the decision today which was extremely hard."Frankfurt prosecutors125 are investigating a payment of 6.7 million euros the federation made to FIFA in connection with the 2006 World Cup in Germany.
Then president of the bidding committee for the world cup Franz Beckenbauer admitted they had made some mistakes but insists there is no corruption126 during the bidding process.
CSL Award Ceremony to be Held in ChangshaThe award ceremony for last season's Chinese Super League will be held in the central Chinese city of Changsha this evening.
Wu Lei will receive the best local scorer award for the third successive year. He had a total of 14 goals for Shanghai SIPG.

The night's climax127 will be the result of the Player of the Year. Guangzhou Evergrande's Riccardo Goulart is the favorite for this award.
Other candidates include his Evergrande teammate Zheng Zhi and SIPG's Dario Conca.
China's national team head coach Alain Perrin is invited to award the winner.
Zheg Zhi Shortlisted for Asian Football of the Year AwardGuangzhou Evergrande and China's national team captain Zheng Zhi has also made the three-person shortlist for Asian Footballer of the Year.
The other candidates are Ahmed Khalil from United Arab Emirates club Al Ahli, and Mohammad Safiq Bin6 Rahim from Malaysia club JDT.
An Evergrande title at the AFC Champions League will make Zheng the hot favorite for the award.
Guangzhou Evergrande were crowned Chinese Super League champions for the five successive year. They held Al Ahli to a goalless draw in the first leg of the AFC Champions League finals.
Zheng and Evergrande will play the return leg at home on November 21.
The winner of the Asian Footballer of the Year award will be announced towards the end of this month in New Dehli.
Cristiano Ronaldo Releases FilmCristiano Ronaldo has launched his biopic "Ronaldo."The film charts Ronaldo's life between Real Madrid's European cup triumph in 2014 and his third Ballon d'Or last January.
Ronaldo talked openly about his early life and relationship with his son but declined to disclose the identity of the mother.
Ronaldo says he may have let people in on too much about himself but he is enjoying it.
"Well I avoided nothing. In the beginning it was a little bit rare (sic) because when I spoke15 with the guys from Universal they planned to do 3 days of filming but I was just feeling so comfortable and good chemistry with the director and Antony and Paul that thing were coming in a natural way. In the movie you are going to have the opportunity to see that we have very intense moments, very private moments, because I was enjoying the filming. I think the last result is great, I think you are going to have the opportunity to see it was unbelievable."The film is due to have its official premiere in London while being simulcast to over 300 cinemas around the world.
The 30-year-old Portugal international has won La Liga, Spanish Cup and the Champions League at Real Madrid. He has just become the club's record goal-scorer last month with 326 goals.
EntertainmentJolin Tsai Finishes the Final Taipei Show of "Play World Tour"Pop star Jolin Tsai has performed the final Taipei show of her "Play World Tour".
Since launching the tour in Taiwan in May, the singer has been to Beijing, Shanghai, and Singapore before returning to Taipei for four more dates.
The pop star says in the earlier gigs, the concert received an overwhelmingly positive reaction and it has helped her feel more relaxed for the final shows.
"When I did the show (in Taipei) previously129, the response was great. So we were waiting for the availability of the stadium and finally we got it. I'm very happy to have the opportunity to be with you all. So no pressure at all, except when I'm very exhausted130."Tsai welcomed surprise guests onto the stage during her last show including singer Sandy Lam from Hong Kong and rock band "May Day" from Taiwan.
The singer is calling on fans who come to her shows to get creative with their outfits131. The payoff could even be joining Tsai on the stage.
"If they give me something to work with, I want to return the favor. So I encourage everyone to let yourself shine and get my attention so I'll want to have you on stage. I'll sing the song you want to hear. We can sing together and have fun. Turn the show into a mini meet and greet."Remaining stops on the "Play World Tour" include HangZhou, Hong Kong and ShenZhen.
Junior Version of 'Project Runway' to Premier on ThursdayAmerican fashion reality show 'Project Runway' is finally in for a kids version after 14 seasons.
In this new season, contestants132 are aged80 between 13 and 17, and its judges will also be completely different from the grown-up version.
However, one thing that 'Project Runway Junior' kept in consistence is the presence of mentor133 and co-host Tim Gunn.
Gunn says though he has given guidance to adults for quite a long time, he is still nervous about stepping into the new show as the mentor.
"And I thought, 'Oh, what is this going to be like? Will I have to soft-pedal all my critiques? Is it all going to be watered down? Are they going to be emotional wrecks134, and very fragile?' And, I have to tell you, I have never worked with a more professional group of individuals, and, regardless of age. Professional, respectful, lovely to each other, lovely qualities of character, which I attribute to their parents."Celebrities135 including Kelly Osbourne and Christian136 Siriano are sitting on the judging panel for the new season.
Gunn also indicates the toughest challenge faced by the judges was to eliminate junior contestants as the show went on.
"They were so extremely difficult for me and for the judges, and the designers were professional, and stoic137, and thanked the judges for the feedback, and the opportunity."Super model Hannah Davis has co-hosted the show with Gunn.
'Project Runway Junior'is scheduled to premier on this Thursday, November 12th.
Hilary Swank among Stars Celebrating Leading Scientists and MathematiciansStars including Hilary Swank and Lily Collins have joined the celebration of leading scientists and mathematicians138 at the Breakthrough Prize ceremony held in Silicon139 Valley, California.
The Oscar-winning actress Hilary Swank highlights the importance of this event.
"Last year I portrayed140 an ALS patient. It's a disease people don't know what causes it. It's becoming more prevalent so I think all of us coming together and talking like this in this type of community just raises awareness and gives us the opportunity to really learn more."Kumail Nanjiani of HBO's 'Silcon Valley' is also among the celebrity141 award presenters142.
That's it for this edition of the Beijing Hour.
