The ruby-colored chiffon gown made by designer Jason Wu is being lent to the National Museum of American History for a year to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the Smithsonian's first ladies exhibition. It will be paired with Obama's shoes designed by Jimmy Choo and will go on display beginning Tuesday, Jan. 14, 2014. (AP Photo/Charles Dharapak, File)

FILE--In this Jan. 15, 2011 file photo, Iran's heavy water nuclear facility near the central city of Arak is backdropped by mountains. Iran's reformers and moderate conservatives welcomed an agreement between Iran and six world powers on how to implement a nuclear deal struck in November, saying it will shore up Iran's sanctions-hit economy but hardliners still remain opposed. The six-nation group - the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council plus Germany - and Iran have agreed to start implementing the terms of the historic interim deal from Jan. 20. That will start a six-month clock for a final deal to be struck over the Islamic Republic's contested nuclear program. (AP Photo/ISNA, Hamid Foroutan, File)
