Rachel and Philip Ridgeway embraced parenthood with open arms on October 31 and welcomed their twins Lydia and Timothy, who were born from the longest-frozen embryos to ever result in a live birth, according to the National Embryo Donation Center. After being frozen for almost 30 years, the embryos were successfully used by doctors for the Oregon couple, who were extremely excited to welcome the two new members of their family.

The previous-known record holder was Molly Gibson, who was born in 2020 from an embryo that had been frozen inside a tube for about 27 years. Molly had broken her sister Emma's record, who was born from an embryo that had been frozen for 24 years.

"There is something mind-boggling about it," Philip told CNN as he and his wife cradled their newborns at their home located outside Portland, Oregon. "I was 5 years old when God gave life to Lydia and Timothy, and he’s been preserving that life ever since."

"In a sense, they’re our oldest children, even though they’re our smallest children,"&nbsp;the father of the twins added. The Ridgeways have four children,&nbsp;none were conceived via IVF or donors.

The embryos belonged to an anonymous married couple, who froze them in 1992. Using in-vitro fertilization, the embryos were created with the husband's sperm, who was in his early 50s and a 34-year-old egg donor.

For nearly three-long decades, they were stored in tiny straws with liquid nitrogen. They were first kept at a fertility lab on the West Coast. In 2007, the couple donated the embryos to the National Embryo Donation Center in Knoxville, Tennessee.&nbsp;

Best and worst red carpet looks from American Music Awards 2022

When it comes to skincare and makeup, who better than Kim Kardashian to get some advice from?&nbsp;While developing her skincare line 'SKKN BY KIM', the diva spoke to several experts, tried several formulas and got immense knowledge about skincare that most of us might not have. After several tests and trials, she curated her morning and nighttime skincare routine that best suits her skin type and gives a lasting glow, while fixing major skin issues. And, in a recent interview, she shared all of her beauty secrets with her fans, who are as obsessed with skincare and beauty as her.

Speaking to a publication, she revealed that she has had psoriasis since she was 25 and to avoid flare-ups, she takes the best care of her skin from the inside out. Other than following her specially-curated skincare routines, she follows a healthy lifestyle and eats plant-based meals as much as possible.&nbsp;

Revealing her morning and nighttime routines in a conversation with Byrdie, Kim shared, "I use my Skkn by Kim nine-step system for my skincare routine. I really created it to be true to exactly what I use. There are small changes between my morning and nighttime skincare routines, for example, we have two Vitamin C products in the line, the Oil Drops ($95) and the Vitamin C8 Serum ($90). I prefer to use the Oil Drops during the day, as they’re developed with a highly stable, active form of Vitamin C, which evens out the complexion while giving the glow of a lifetime. I mix a pump in with our Face Cream ($85) for a really radiant look."

Kardashian continued, "I’ll use the Vitamin C8 Serum at night. It’s infused with 9% ethyl ascorbic acid, a water-soluble, stable vitamin C derivative known for its long-lasting results, and it's clinically proven to diminish the appearance of pigmentations, wrinkles, and fine lines. For my nighttime routine, I’ll also use the Face Cream, but mixed with our Night Oil ($95), which helps hydrate skin overnight, so I wake up with really supple, smooth skin."

When asked about the skincare step that she never misses or skips, the &nbsp;42-year-old said, "I try to never really skip any parts of my skincare routine—it’s such an important part of my self-care routine—but cleansing my face is something I always make sure to do before applying the rest of my products."

The fashionista also shared the biggest regret she has about her skincare. Speaking candidly to the publication, the reality TV show star revealed that she wishes she would have started using toners early on in her 20s. For the most part of her younger days, she felt that toner was just water on the face that did little to nothing for her skin. But as she started exploring newer skincare products and lines, she discovered that toners can have fruit enzymes, AHAs and several other beauty elixirs that can do so much for the skin and its vitality.

Revealing the best skincare advice she's ever received, Kim said, "That skincare isn’t just for your face! I always go down to my chest. Another great piece of advice is that the best skincare routine is one you’ll actually do every day. While I find my nine-step skincare routine necessary, I know there are people who may think it is overwhelming."

Lastly, she spoke about breakouts being her biggest skincare pet peeve.

Finneas O'Connell has finally broken his silence on his sister Billie Eilish's relationship with Neighbourhood frontman Jesse Rutherford, who went public with their relationship earlier this month. Speaking candidly to a publication, he said that he just wants his sister to be happy with whoever she chooses to be with.

"Listen, as long as she's happy, I'm happy," Finneas told E! News at a GQ event for its Men of the Year issue on Thursday.

Rumours of Eilish dating the 31-year-old musician had been doing rounds for months, however, the couple made things official with their red carpet debut at the LACMA Art + Film Gala 2022, wearing coordinated Gucci pyjama looks.

At the Marrakech International Film Festival, Iranian director Emad Aleebrahim Dehkordi bagged the Etoile d'Or top award on Saturday for his debut feature 'A Tale of Shemroon'. While receiving the honour, he&nbsp;dedicated his prize to the women of Iran, who are currently protesting for their rights and freedom in the country.

While referring to the civil unrest in his country which was&nbsp;sparked by the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini in September,&nbsp;Dehkordi said on the stage,&nbsp;"I want to pay tribute to all those who lost their lives fighting to regain the freedom to be themselves."

"I dedicate my award to all the women of Iran and to the young generation who risk their lives for freedom," added the 43-year-old filmmaker.

A crackdown on the protests over the death of Amini has left at least 378 dead, according to a new report released Saturday by the Norway-based Iran Human Rights group.

Amini died three days after her arrest in Tehran by the notorious morality police over an alleged breach of the Islamic republic's strict dress code for women.

The film festival jury was chaired by Oscar-winning Italian director Paolo Sorrentino, French actor Tahar Rahim, Lebanese director Nadine Labaki and the German-American actress Diane Kruger.

At the film festival, the jury prize was shared by director Maryam Touzani for 'The Blue Caftan', which is Morocco's entry for the Oscars, and Portugal's Cristele Alves Meira for 'Alma Viva'.

South Korea's Choi Seung-yoon took the best actress award for her performance in Canadian director Anthony Shim's 'Riceboy Sleeps'&nbsp;while Indonesia's Arswendy Bening Swara claimed the best actor honours for his role in compatriot Makbul Mubarak's thriller 'Autobiography'.

The film 'A Tale of Shemroon' explores the life of a young Iranian living in Shemroon, north of Tehran, who gets pulled deeper into the drug trade while trying to make some easy money through his connections with Tehran's wealthy youth.

BTS: Jin's 'The Astronaut' breaks record for being fastest single by solo artist to sell million copies

Member of parliament and former actress Jaya Bachchan joined her granddaughter Navya Naveli Nanda and daughter Shweta Bachchan Nanda to talk about women empowerment and gender pay parity on the latest episode of 'What The Hell Navya' podcast. Jaya, who often grabs headlines for making controversial comments about paparazzi and media, took a hit at "educated women" and said that they are their own enemies.&nbsp;

During the end segment of the episode titled 'One Crown, Many Shoes', Navya questioned the discrimination women face in society and spoke about sons being raised differently than daughters. Interrupting Navya, Jaya said, "Educated women also have double standards, which is so sad. I want to say it sometimes but do not feel good about saying it, but women are their own enemies."

During the podcast, Navya also spoke about some women trying to pull other women down and shared what she feels about it. "I feel like even though we are trying to achieve the same thing, the same goal, we are all trying to be successful, we are still trying to one-up each other and put other women down for the sake of feeling better. I don't know why that happens. I don't know why, it's a collective thing that we all need to do. We all need to work and be nice, and it's not just one woman's success, it has to be everyone's together," said Amitabh Bachchan's granddaughter.

During their conversation, Shweta said that women are mostly judged on how good they are as homemakers but nobody gives much attention to their professional growth, which she feels is quite discouraging. "Women have always got their value from the number of children they have if they make a good wife, if they make a good mother," added Shweta.

Comparing women and men, Jaya said&nbsp;that women often dress up for other women as they care too much about what others will think. However, men have different criteria. "Women dress for each other, men dress for the women," said Jaya.

Asserting that society is influenced more by men and the social system works in their favour, the 24-year-old entrepreneur said, "We do live in a world that's mostly designed for men. We've kind of almost adapted to the world that we live in but imagine if it was built more to our comfort," shared Navya.

Adding to the conversation, Shweta said that if a woman demands for equal pay at her workplace, it is completely justified. "Equal Pay is not an unreasonable ask," she said.

Jaya Bachchan says 'women are their own enemies' on granddaughter Navya's podcast

In Hollywood, he's the rising star of the sequel to 'Black Panther',&nbsp;the first major Black superhero movie. In his homeland Mexico, Tenoch Huerta is leading a fight against racism on the screen. The 41-year-old aims to use his growing fame to break the tradition of Mexican actors of Indigenous origin being cast in the roles of thieves and villains.

Playing the character of Namor the Sub-Mariner in Marvel Studios' 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever',&nbsp;Huerta joins a small club of international Mexican stars such as Salma Hayek, Gael Garcia Bernal and Diego Luna.

The path to Hollywood was strewn with pitfalls for Huerta, who hails from a working-class suburb of Mexico City.

"Like thousands of dark-skinned people, I've been called names" such as "dirty Indian," he wrote in his new book "Orgullo Prieto" (Brown Pride).

"Mexico is a country that's racist and denies it," he added.

Huerta said it is a myth that Mexico today is a mixed-race country where skin colour is unimportant.

"This is how we deny the cultural and linguistic diversity of all Indigenous nations, Afro-descendant communities, Asians," he wrote.

Huerta, who also played infamous drug trafficker Rafael Caro Quintero in the Netflix hit 'Narcos: Mexico',&nbsp;criticized the way of thinking "that places white, modern, Western, on a higher level."

Even before "Black Panther," Huerta was the figurehead of "Poder Prieto" (Brown Power), a collective of actresses and actors who feel discriminated against because of their origin and their skin colour.

"We're only given characters of delinquents, domestic workers, or the poor," said Christel Klitbo, 40, who is of Danish, African and Lebanese descent.

Aware of the powerful influence of the media, Huerta said he and the other group members see a "compelling need to change racist narratives and practices, which have been normalized, reproduced and perpetuated in the audiovisual industry."

Huerta hopes that his appearance in 'Black Panther' -- which also stars Oscar winner Lupita Nyong'o, who was born in Mexico to Kenyan parents -- will help their struggle.

"The perception changes if we have these dark-skinned actors, of clearly Indigenous descent, in positions of power and influence, who are kings and great warriors," he said.

Huerta also wants to see changes in wider Mexican customs, such as the popular saying still heard in some homes that daughters should marry a white man to "improve the race."

While he is in favour of laws against racism, Huerta avoids commenting on the policies of Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador's party, which has pledged to "restore the dignity" of Indigenous peoples.

"I believe that the demands of the Indigenous peoples have not been met. But this is a subject that does not concern me because I am not Indigenous," he said Friday at his book launch.

"As a simple external observer, I believe that we could do more and better," he added.

Mexico is home to 23.2 million people over the age of three who identify as Indigenous, representing 19.4 per cent of the population, according to the national statistics agency INEGI.

Around one in five Mexican adults said they had experienced discrimination over the past year, mainly because of their skin colour, in the first national survey on the subject in 2O17.&nbsp;

And three-quarters of Indigenous people felt undervalued by Mexican society.

"We are a new link in a chain that dates back 500 years. All the struggles have been the same for 500 years," Huerta concluded, referring to the Spanish conquest and fall of the Aztec empire in 1521.

In Hollywood, he's the rising star of the sequel to 'Black Panther', the first major Black superhero movie. In his homeland Mexico, Tenoch Huerta is leading a fight against racism on the screen.

In Hollywood, he's the rising star of the sequel to 'Black Panther', the first major Black superhero movie. In his homeland Mexico, Tenoch Huerta is leading a fight against racism on the screen. The 41-year-old aims to use his growing fame to break the tradition of Mexican actors of Indigenous origin being cast in the roles of thieves and villains. Playing the character of Namor the Sub-Mariner in Marvel Studios' 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever', Huerta joins a small club of international Mexican stars such as Salma Hayek, Gael Garcia Bernal and Diego Luna. The path to Hollywood was strewn with pitfalls for Huerta, who hails from a working-class suburb of Mexico City. "Like thousands of dark-skinned people, I've been called names" such as "dirty Indian," he wrote in his new book "Orgullo Prieto" (Brown Pride). "Mexico is a country that's racist and denies it," he added. Huerta said it is a myth that Mexico today is a mixed-race country where skin colour is unimportant. "This is how we deny the cultural and linguistic diversity of all Indigenous nations, Afro-descendant communities, Asians," he wrote.

Legendary musician David Bowie's son Duncan Jones,&nbsp;who has tried several times to block the former U.S. President&nbsp;Donald Trump from using his father's records during political rallies, recently shared a post on Twitter to&nbsp;call out the 76-year-old politician.&nbsp;

For continuing to use his father's old record despite being denied to do so, the 51-year-old film director slammed Trump on the micro-blogging site and claimed that he is doing so to "wind" him up. Being&nbsp;an outspoken critic of Trump,&nbsp;Jones has&nbsp;expressed his frustration at the politician using his father's work to promote his ideology&nbsp;on several instances.

Replying to a comment, Jones wrote, "Pretty sure he's just doing that now to wind me up," while referring to Trump using his father's records. He also added that he's virtually powerless to do anything about it. "I have been told there is little we can do about it," wrote the director.

Meanwhile, Trump's Twitter account has been reinstated by Elon Musk. The same happened&nbsp;after netizens voted in support of Trump in&nbsp;a public poll.

More and more often these days, we may incorporate gaming and exercise. If you haven't already noticed, playing VR games may be physically demanding. They are, however, a lot of fun, and you may forget you are exercising at all. If you're not sure where, to begin with, virtual fitness, IANSlife got some pointers for you.

Select a virtual game of fitness carefully

Numerous VR games only need you to stand motionless and move your hands. You move, but do you improve in terms of fitness? Fair enough, you will burn calories, but you might not be working the right muscles.

You won't significantly enhance your athletic condition playing these kinds of games. True exercise causes an elevated heart rate, shallower breathing, and profuse perspiration. You will be forced to punch, dodge, avoid obstacles, crouch, and do several more manoeuvres in VIRO MOVE that simulate actual physical training.

Follow your development

Use your home scale every day and record your findings if you have one, which you undoubtedly do. You'll be conscious of your advantages and room for improvement. Monitoring your development is crucial and inspirational. Why don't you give it a try if it works for me?

The key is to gradually raise the bar while not going overboard at first. You'll develop a training programme over time that you'll practically grow dependent upon.

Avoid overdoing it

Start with five-minute intervals at first. These baby steps will help you persuade your mind and acclimate your body to the effort. I began my trip by beginning to run at 1 kilometre, and as of right now, I have reached a half-marathon.

To have stronger bones, greater muscles, strength, and even a better mood, you must work hard. VR Fitness can help you with this. But keep in mind that engaging in sports improperly or excessively might lead to damage.

Remain positive and realistic in attitude

Long-term goals like losing weight, increasing endurance, flexibility, and strength call for both your dedication and a separate element, time.

You ought to exercise and eat throughout the day, and then rest and build up fatigued muscles at night. Do not anticipate success in a week. Believe me, the months will fly by. Examine your objectives objectively. The most crucial element is execution.

Virtual fitness, rest and repeat

Even the most accomplished athletes recognise the value of taking a break after a strenuous workout. Try to get at least eight hours of sleep every night and spend at least one day each week relaxing. After that, you can be confident that every workout will be more dependable and powerful than the one before it.

5 tips for virtual fitness beginners

In a world, where gender inequality is rampant, what significance does International Men's Day&nbsp;(19th November) hold? Zee Theatre's stars Rajeev Khandelwal, Joy Sengupta and Pawan Chopra believe that this is a day of reflection on what masculinity truly means and if popular culture can break gender stereotypes. And if men need a specially designated day at all?

Rajeev Khandelwal responds, "I think it is important to celebrate Men’s Day because it can make them realize that they are looked up to for what they stand for. Higher self-esteem will make them want to earn respect which in turn may reduce the crimes against women. Also just celebrating Women’s Day can also mean that women are the weaker lot and they need a dedicated day in a year to feel special."&nbsp;

He believes popular culture can help break stereotypes associated with masculinity and adds, "Times have changed and popular culture needs to reflect the more progressive and mature side of men. Even a little shift in the portrayal of men can have a huge ripple effect through society. Thankfully, we are now beginning to see that men can be vulnerable too. Men too have started accepting gender equality and this is a welcome shift."

Pawan Chopra adds, "Popular culture no longer shows that men are omnipotent and that women are simply wallflowers. &nbsp;Men today are more collaborative and are able to work with strong women who are dominating various professions. Even within families, a man is no longer the ultimate authority and everyone has a voice. This evolution &nbsp;is &nbsp;good &nbsp;because the happiness of both genders is needed to provide stability to society." &nbsp;

Joy Sen Gupta thinks, popular culture has depicted both men and women in stereotypical ways and also subverted cliches about masculinity and femininity. He opines, "Women today can be avenging angels, action heroines leading armies to conquer galaxies and men need not be just hyper-masculine, misogynistic action heroes but also sensitive poets, academicians, artists and intellectuals. Big blockbusters though still have all the all-conquering hyper-masculine men, projecting machismo at different levels."

From the beginning of evolution, he says, men have used their physical strength to dominate and exploit women and adds, " From the feudal times onwards, women have been treated as property and objects of pleasure and have gone through unimaginable misery. Today women are staking their claim to their share of volition and that claim is celebrated as International Women’s Day. I don't know what &nbsp;men are staking their claim on via International Men's Day but if the day signifies that men should be more sensitive, more inclusive, and move away from machismo and misogyny, then I am for it."
