...editor's work is never done. Or so it seems in the September issue of George, in which JOHN F. KENNEDY JR. goes to great lengths to boost his magazine's circulation. To complement the cover photo of a nude Kate Moss as Eve, Kennedy sits bare-chested and bare-kneed in dark shadow, gazing pensively at an apple. In the editor's letter, he ruminates on the nature of temptation--"I'm playing Hamlet with my willpower (Should I or shouldn't I?)."

Then there is the improbable match of slender youth and that voice--an astonishingly...
MIAMI: Bennett LeBow has coughed up another one of tobacco's dirty little secrets. The owner of the Liggett Group (Chesterfields, L&M, Lark, Eve), who was the first industry leader to admit to tobacco's ills when he crossed the party line in March, says he had been thinking about going public for years, and that $10 million a year from big brother Philip Morris helped keep him quiet. In 1995, with tobacco companies embroiled in a massive suit with state attorneys general, Philip Morris came knocking on the door of his financially troubled company. The larger firm said...
