...into everything from T shirts to action figures. By buying into Williams's wider activities, EMI hopes to swing even when CD sales aren't winning. BANKING "Opening The Lid" In Japan Heizo Takanaka must have the most stressful job in Japan - not easy in a country where train drivers have committed suicide for falling one minute behind schedule. Last week Prime Minister Junichiro Koizuimi fired Financial Services Agency chief Hakuo Yanagisawa, who opposed injecting capital into Japan's debt-laden banks, and named the reform-minded Takanaka to take the country's top economic post. Takanaka said he wants...
...helpers mounted the series of attacks between July and October, 1995. The four-hour list of terror and murder charges read at the trial's opening will be followed up by detailed confessions both men gave of having organized the campaign and planted homemade bombs in Paris subway trains. Though the pair have recently recanted those avowals as coerced, prosecutors also have Bensaïd's fingerprints on bombing material at one site and on an unexploded bomb discovered on the Paris-Lyon TGV train line.

...left both countries searching for a response. India has, in a sense, given the militants cover to claim their motive as redress for earlier mistreatment, without mentioning Kashmir. New Delhi insisted this was a terrorist canard?the latest investigations suggest the temple assailants, both Pakistani, had probably arrived by train from Jammu and Kashmir that same afternoon?but it still clouds the picture of the country's enemies and leaves the door open to additional attacks, and potential retaliation. Furthermore, it puts Vajpayee in an increasingly tight spot between the international community and the hard-core elements...
