Scant seasonal cheer for the retail sector

This was the subject of the latest KPMG/SPSL Retail Think Tank (RTT) white paper which was published recently. It explored the secrets of successful retailing and how the RTT believes that retailers can survive - and even prosper - in a downturn.

I think that many companies in the sector - even those that are currently performing well - will be thinking about ways to protect themselves if the much-discussed economic downturn does materialise.

First and foremost, it's crucial for retailers to know their customers, a subject which I have covered many times in this column in the past. Whether it's ensuring that the right staff are employed who can empathise with shoppers, tuning into the latest trends and fashions or second-guessing how their attitudes are changing - hands up who spotted that ethical retailing was going to take off so dramatically this year? - the needs of customers simply cannot be overlooked in today's competitive climate.


The Bell report on Ski Sunday, part two

Hi everyone, here's what's coming up on Ski Sunday this week (27 January, 1900-2000, BBC Two and BBC Sport website) and all the latest news from the slopes.

So another year goes by and still Bode Miller is without his Hahnenkamm downhill win.

Miller was lying in joint first with Mario Scheiber when Didier Cuche pushed them back into second. On camera, their reactions could not have been more different, Scheiber, who had skied the best run of his life shrugged it off with a smile, Miller stomped off.

For Miller a win on the Hahnenkamm would mean more than Olympic or World Championship golds.

What was worse for Miller is that he would have won comfortably if he had not run into the net at the foot of the Steilhang. In typical Miller style he managed to get both skis up onto the safety nets, yet still not lose too much speed.


Rodriguez-W.Va. relationship was testy in Aug.

In the hectic last months of his employment at West Virginia University, Rich Rodriguez, the University of Michigan's new football coach, complained about $200,000 missing from a booster fund he started, conspired to evade the state's open-records act, got a "kissing up" call from the governor, and threatened to leave for Texas A&M or Florida State.

Rodriguez founded a fund in 2001 called the 1100 Club to raise money from boosters for private air travel; he thought there was $350,000 in it, documents disclosed Wednesday revealed, but found only $150,000 when he began asking questions.

Asked if Rodriguez would be allowed to maintain a similar fund at U-M, "The answer is a resounding 'No,' " spokesman Bruce Madej said in an e-mail.

MyRichUncle’s Under-the-Radar Buy

The e-mail message last month from the president of Embark, a company whose software colleges use to process online applications from students, promised big changes for its customers. The company’s management team, said Adam Park, had, "with the help of outside funding," bought Embark from the Princeton Review, its owner since 2001. "The infusion of fresh capital," Park wrote, "will allow us to dramatically improve the products you are using, improve all of our services (including our accounting services), and provide the most stable and user friendly website in the business."

As a result of these purchases in the tender offer, Teradyne, through NAC, now owns over 90% of the outstanding shares of Nextest common stock.

NAC will promptly acquire all of the remaining outstanding shares of Nextest common stock by means of a short-form merger under Delaware law. In the merger, NAC will merge with and into Nextest, and Nextest will become a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Teradyne.
