...John Bissell died, leaving his then 31-year-old son with a daunting choice. William could let the company coast (the export business was doing well, but handweaving limited the volumes that Fabindia could trade in). Or he could begin selling cheaper, machine-produced cloth, discarding his father's belief in the handmade. Instead, he took a third way. He knit together Fabindia's 40,000 individual artisans into a reliable supply chain and began focusing on the domestic market.

...breakaway Mormon, the end justifies the means, however shabby. Earlier this season, he pressured Don, his friend and business partner in the Home Plus stores, to "take the bullet" by outing himself as a polygamist, allowing an unsullied Bill to proceed with his campaign. Friends' lives ruined, his son ostracized: it must all be part of the divine plan. That kind of faith means never having to say you're sorry. Tiger Woods surely apologized more times during his 13-minute statement Friday than Bill has in 38 hour-long episodes. The closest he gets to an act of contrition...
