Results on CP Violation from Belle

I describe the recent measurement of the CP violating parameter $\sin 2 \phi_1 =(0.99\pm 0.14\pm 0.05)$ from the Belle experiment at KEK.Comment: To appear in the Proceedings of the 9th International Symposium on Heavy Flavors, Sept 10-13, 2001, Pasadena, C

Hadronic Decays and Lifetimes of B and D Mesons

We review recent experimental results on hadronic decays and lifetimes of hadrons containing b and c quarks. We discuss charm counting and the semileptonic branching fraction in B decays, the color suppressed amplitude in B and D decay, and the search for gluonic penguins in B decay.Comment: To appear in the Proceedings of the 1996 Warsaw ICHEP Conferenc
