...going to come of all this, what reform of the system might happen." Cochran was in San Francisco on Monday afternoon when he learned that the jury had reached a verdict and would deliver it the next day. By 5:45 p.m. he was at the San Francisco airport, where a small group of well-wishers surrounded him at Gate 78. "I think it's going to be all right," he said quietly, flashing a smile. "But we'll see." But as he boarded the plane, a crack showed in his mask of confidence. "It's in God's hands...
...occurred at around 10:15 p.m., when neighbors say they heard the cries of Nicole's dog. That would give Simpson enough time--about an hour--to get from his house to Nicole's, commit the murders and return home for the limo that would take him to the airport. The defense presented witnesses--some less credible than others--who said that at 10:15 all was well around Nicole's house.

...breakup. (Businessman Donald Perkins and former U.S. Trade Representative Carla Hills sit on both boards, which voted for conflicting goals.) D'Aveni discerns an intrinsic cycle: poorly conceived mergers turning into spin-offs. The aim is to dominate a market, as Microsoft rules software, Delta dominates the Atlanta airport and Chrysler is the king of minivans. A likely lesson: if sprawl and diversity get in the way of market dominance, break up the company. A likely corollary: if all that stands between you and market dominance is a rival, buy up the competition. Such bold moves impress Wall Street. Such...
