...York, and Morris did some polling that helped Clinton decide to declare for Governor. Since that race proved to be a breeze, Clinton and Morris worked together with far more intensity on a concurrent campaign in 1978, helping Governor David Pryor in his successful race for the Senate against Jim Guy Tucker, a rival whom Clinton wanted to see defeated. Clinton and Morris became Pryor's consultants, with Clinton writing ad copy, Morris revising it. In that context, Morris once said, he came to see Clinton as "a highly sophisticated colleague" who knew that you "do what you have...
They aren't dueling over peanuts: enormous fortunes await those whose software guides consumers through the cornucopia of goods and services that will comprise tomorrow's World Wide Web. Netscape founder Jim Clark realized this first, and his company released the initial--and now dominant--mainstream Web browser back in October '94. Today it enjoys a $3.5 billion market capitalization despite sales of just $80 million in 1995. Bill Gates saw the light last winter, famously stating that Microsoft was "hardcore about the Internet," and, to prove it, turning the $75 billion company, and its $8.7 billion of annual sales...

In 1994, when Disney released The Return of Jafar, a DTV sequel to Aladdin, it expected to move about 2 million copies. Jafar sold close to 11 million, earning Disney around $100 million...
...Alfred Eisenstaedt, has provoked endless speculation about its subjects' identities. In 1980 Edith Shain wrote to Eisenstaedt admitting to being the nurse. But who was the sailor? Last week in the Wall Street Journal the Rev. George Byron Koch of West Chicago, Illinois, recounted the claim of his parishioner, Jim Reynolds, that he was the kisser--but that the photo was "a journalistic deception," posed and taken on V-E day, May 8, 1945, not V-J day, Aug. 14, 1945, when dress whites would have been the uniform. Now a security guard, Reynolds, 75, says he previously kept quiet...
