...taking over the North American operations. Recruited to the lossmaking Renault in 1996, Ghosn undertook a three-year cost-cutting campaign, ultimately saving the company over j3 billion - and allowing it to take its controlling stake of Nissan in 1999. As he remolded the company, Ghosn became a business hero and media superstar in Japan. Now spending "about 10 days a month in Japan" - where his wife, Rita, still owns the My Lebanon restaurant in Tokyo - and two weeks in Paris, Ghosn says he gets "the best of both worlds." The rest of his time is mostly spent overseeing Nissan...

"Cheney didn't win every battle," an official close to the Vice President said as he ruminated about the wide swath his hero had once cut. Enough people talking about him that way can only make it harder to win the next fight that comes along...
Myth has it that Morocco's Atlas Mountains were formed when the hero Perseus turned the eponymous Titan to stone by forcing him to look at the head of Medusa the Gorgon. A visit to the town of Ouarzazate, on the mountains' edge and 400 km outside Marrakech, might lead to you to believe that Atlas survived and that the giant is now amassing a collection of supersized toys. Roman amphitheaters, Tibetan temples and Egyptian sphinxes tower over the arid terrain, left behind at the appropriately named Atlas Studios by crews working on films including Kingdom of Heaven, Kundun...
