...Uemura started a company called Japan Makeup, which began with a stylish, gallery-like boutique in Tokyo's fashionable Omotesando district. The company became Shu Uemura Cosmetics in 1983, riding the wave of the fast-growing Japanese economy, taking advantage of the country's overflowing consumerism and hunger for Western trends.

...Europe itself is not a big arms customer. The real hunger lies in oil-rich and third-world countries eager to modernize their armies. Unlike the 1980s, when France nurtured military ties with African governments - selling massive arms systems in return for political backing - France has few natural allies to whom to sell weapons. Two months ago Morocco - France's former colony and close neighbor - rejected the Rafale and instead bought Lockheed Martin's F-16 fighter jet, which has seen years of combat, including in Afghanistan and Iraq. "Even the French Air Force hasn't bought all the Rafale...
