...perpetuity of arms trading, the second-oldest profession in the world." Cummings, 54, is intimate with this deadly folly: he is by far the largest private arms seller in the world. Interarms Corp., which he founded 28 years ago and wholly owns today, has 250 employees in Britain, Panama, Monaco, Argentina and the U.S. Sales in a good year can top $ 100 million.

...Happy Fella among all strollers and browsers is Jim Rouse himself.

Since her divorce from Philippe Junot, the jet-setting playboy, Caroline, 24, rarely makes the scene. Yes, there is the occasional rendezvous with Close Friend Roberto Rossellini, 31, Ingrid Bergman's son. But generally the princess restricts her company to another tall, dark male. He is an Alsatian named Oenix and clearly the jealous type...
