...come crashing down with the recent global financial crisis. Despite his enormous creativity and influence on fashion, Lacroix could never turn a profit. Many of the press reports on the house's failures blamed the designer's underperforming stores in New York City and Las Vegas. But at the heart of the Lacroix saga is an unsuccessful perfume launch that dates back to 1990, and his continuing inability to translate his unique high-end fashion flair into more accessible products, like fragrance, lipstick and accessories. As a result, Arnault sold the brand in 2005 to the Falic Group, a Florida...
...those three elements together - social networks, live searching and link-sharing - and you have a cocktail that poses what may amount to the most interesting alternative to Google's near monopoly in searching. At its heart, Google's system is built around the slow, anonymous accumulation of authority: pages rise to the top of Google's search results according to, in part, how many links point to them, which tends to favor older pages that have had time to build an audience.

And a reformed health-care system would put more emphasis on preventive care and managing such chronic conditions as asthma, heart disease and diabetes that now account for 75 cents out of every medical dollar spent. All these things would force a cultural and economic revolution on the health industry - and the patients who depend...
...weep for oceans. It's enough. There must come a moment - a moment of bringing people together. And therefore we say anyone who comes here should go back with that resolution. Memory must bring people together rather than set them apart. Memories here not to sow anger in our hearts, but on the contrary, a sense of solidarity that all those who need us. What else can we do except invoke that memory so that people everywhere who say the 21st century is a century of new beginnings, filled with promise and infinite hope, and at times profound gratitude...
