...tobacco empire of South African Anton Rupert manufactures and sells one out of every 15 cigarettes in the world. His brands include Rothmans in Canada and Dunhill in Britain, as well as the lesser-known Edgeworth cigarettes and pipe tobacco in the U.S. Yet until now his realm was more of a loose association of fiefdoms than an empire.

SATANISM. "Blessed are the strong, for they shall possess the earth. If a man smite you on one cheek, SMASH him on the other!" This inverted gospel ?from Anton Szandor La Vey's The Satanic Bible?sets the tone for today's leading brand of Satanism, the San Francisco-based Church of Satan.
