Green, the billionaire owner of the Arcadia Group, which controls a clutch of British clothing chains including Miss Selfridge and Wallis, is watching a spot about the latest fashion collection to hit Topshop, the jewel in Arcadia's crown. The much ballyhooed line inspired by Kate Moss--the supermodel's wardrobe formed the basis of the designs--went on sale the previous night at the chain's flagship store in London.

...called herself a "softie," but Kate Webb's coverage of conflicts in Asia over the past 35 years, from Vietnam to the first Gulf War to Russia's withdrawal from Afghanistan, proved she was anything but tame. Starting in 1967, when she arrived in Saigon, the enterprising reporter earned acclaim for her coolheaded front-line chronicles of the carnage, plus her empathic portraits of innocent victims.
