...undertook physical therapy with others in a stale-smelling large room. "It was filled with people dealing with their handicaps," he recalls. "The room of sweat, struggle, hope and disappointment," where patients like himself were exercised on blue mats under glaring fluorescent lights in eggbox cases. They were continually shouted at to "do another, try harder, give it another five...
...that smoking is not addictive and his perhaps subconscious plagiarism of Phillip Morris' ad campaign in Europe, which argues that passive smoke is less harmful than a glass of whole milk a day.

TIME also alleges that the purchase of slow-moving inventory from Chaumet, one of our operating companies, by another company, Lausanne Investments, was somehow improper. In fact, such bulk sales of stale merchandise for subsequent liquidation, the intention of which is to avoid disrupting the core business, is a standard practice in the jewelry industry. Both companies are owned by the same shareholders, who were all fully informed of the inventory-liquidation program. By publishing this ill-conceived article, Time has done both...
