...smoker who strongly believes smoking on the job should be limited to private offices in order to safeguard the health of all workers. That is precisely the policy of his firm. At Frosty Acres Brands, a Georgia canned-goods packager, a smoking ban is unlikely because President Louis Dell smokes almost two packs a day. But Dell acknowledges that the rights of nonsmokers should be protected.

...mind the inventiveness of Issey Miyake, the deluxe grace of Yves Saint Laurent or Karl Lagerfeld, the Zen funkiness of Yohji Yamamoto. The best American design tends to be generic, not designer labeled. It would be hard to find, for instance, a designer who has been influenced by Louis Dell'Olio, but it would be equally impossible to find an Italian leather blouson that is not derived in some way from the rumble-ready splendor of an American black leather motorcycle jacket.
