Say what you will about one-percenters, there are fresh signs that they, too, are beginning to feel the pinch from a sputtering global economy.
The European debt crisis and a decline in the purchasing power of the euro, an accelerating slowdown in newly rich China, and uncertainty surrounding U.S. economic policies in an election year are all taking their toll on the luxury-retailing sector, an area that until recently seemed impervious to the stresses brought on by the housing bust, the credit crunch, and persistently high unemployment.
Just last week luxury retailer Burberry Group BRBY.LN 1.7633674630261662% Burberry Group PLC ADR U.S.: OTC USD17.89 0.31 1.7633674630261662% /Date(1469658001000-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 8525 P/E Ratio 17.270006757409018 Market Cap 7678457243.05093 Dividend Yield 4.336232532140861% Rev. per Employee 355844 More quote details and news » (ticker: BRBY.U.K.), famous for its trademark tartan check featured in its clothing and accessories, became the latest company catering to the well-heeled to signal that times are changing for a sector that seemed to operate in a parallel universe the past few years. Burberry reported sales increased 11% in its first quarter, below expectations and well under the 34% growth set in the year-ago period.
Other luxury-goods sellers have also cautioned in the past few months about the challenges wrought by a slowdown in China and the European debt crisis, including LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton (MC.France), Prada 1913.hk -0.5042016806722689% Prada S.p.A.

Tiffany shares, which Barron's wrote about favorably earlier this year ("A Gem of an Investment," March 5) when they traded at $67.47 a share, are down 22% since then, to a recent $52.25, after a warning from the company in late May that slowing economic growth around the globe was hurting sales. Sales at the flagship Fifth Avenue store in Manhattan, which relies heavily on European tourists, dropped 4% in the first quarter. The jeweler lowered its full-year sales outlook to 7% to 8% growth from a previous expectation of 10% to 13% and cut its earnings-per-share guidance by 25 cents, to $3.70 to $3.80. Management said it expects all of the year's growth to come in the fourth quarter.
Tiffany shares may look tempting—they're trading at 12.4 times next year's estimates, versus their historical trough multiple of 14. But the short-term risks are too high for buying in now.
It's not just the rich who are pulling back from luxury stores; it's also the less affluent "aspirational" shoppers, says Marshal Cohen of research firm NPD Group. Everyone, it seems, is feeling a little poorer.

"It very much feels like 2008," she says.
At the same time as Tiffany has lost its luster, Wal-Mart, the world's largest retailer, has seen its stock soar to new highs, despite the taint of a bribery and corruption scandal at its Mexico operations. In the two years since Barron's ran a bullish story on the company ("Load Up the Shopping Cart!", July 12, 2010), the stock has climbed more than 45% to around $73, with much of the advance in the past three months.
Wal-Mart has broadened its product offerings and returned to the everyday-low-price strategy that made it successful in the first place. The shares, which trade at 14.7 times next year's earnings and carry a dividend yield of 2.2%, could climb further as more investors warm to a company they overlooked for the past decade.

Sterling makes his case strong for England`s trip to Brazil
Zee Media Bureau/ Rajdeep Saha
New Delhi: Liverpool starlet Raheem Sterling is growing as a footballer and that too at a rapid pace. The England rookie has given a headache to national team manager Roy Hodgson and that headache for Roy is worth in every account. With two months left for the eventual showdown in Brazil, Sterling`s form for Liverpool makes him a serious contender in sealing a berth in England`s 23-man squad for the World Cup. Sterling leads the list in the potential number of wingers Hodgson will have in his kitty and he may outshine the other probables with his current form.
Sterling`s opening goal for Liverpool against Manchester City on Sunday was a masterpiece. The 19-year-old ran on to a pinpoint through ball from Luis Suarez, and dummied both City skipper Vincent Kompany and goal-keeper Joe Hart to slot into an unguarded net after just seven minutes. Sterling has formed an unassailable partnership with Luis Suarez, Daniel Sturridge and Philippe Coutinho.
The movement in their play suggest that and the goals too make a point. Sterling has been given a much mature role under Brendon Rodgers and has taken the chance with both hands. Not just being a threat in the right wing position, he also heads the diamond formation that Rodgers has implemented this season in the Premier League. Sterling has been enjoyable to watch in that position and he offers Hodgson with a much needed pace upfront.
With Arsenal`s Theo Walcott out of the World Cup due to injury, the other wingers in the right flank in Hodgson`s list include Andros Townsend, Adam Johnson, Aaron Lennon, and Stewart Downing. Apart from Townsend who is likely to get selected, Sterling has done enough to justify his position in being on the plane to Brazil.
The 19-year old`s performances against Manchester United at Old Trafford, Southampton, Crystal Palace, Tottenham and now Manchester City has seen him prevail in the two positions in a big way. Playing either out wide or in the centre, Sterling outshines the other contenders by a big margin. Hodgson is likely to select several Liverpool players and the understanding they have will provide Hodgson a much needed hope.

This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

Publishers Weekly - Publisher's WeeklyIn his introduction, bestselling western novelist Jakes calls the 23 original stories presented here ``virgin territory'' because, with each story written by a member of the Western Writers of America, this is allegedly the first collection ``in twenty or thirty years'' to feature only new westerns by professional authors. Maybe so, but the territory remains fairly well intact as most of the writers, who range from top names to little-knowns, eschew new visions of the western in favor of variations on traditional themes. The stories from the more celebrated authors are strong: Elmore Leonard's "`Hurrah for Capt. Early'" thrusts a typical gunfight into a new, racially charged setting; Jakes's ``Manitow and Ironhand'' casts a weathered trapper in an almost mythic light; in Loren D. Estleman's ``Iron Heart's Story,'' an old woman lays a neat trap to invigorate her senile husband. Other authors also spin a few new twists: Marianne Willman's ``The Death(s) of Billy the Kid,'' for example, looks at that famous event from a variety of viewpoints. But while this collection includes work from women writers to an unprecedented degree and offers yarns from several different time periods, it misses the opportunity to reenergize the western or its readership (as did, for instance, the horror/western anthology Razored Saddles). Many of the stories, such as John D. Nesbitt's ``Spring Comes to the Widow,'' are classical genre pieces that will appeal to already committed western fans without reaching out to a wider public.

Editorial Reviews
Library JournalAnswering the call from the editors for new material, several members of the Western Writers of America here offer a wide-ranging, uniformly excellent collection of original short fiction that broadens the traditional realm of the Western genre. Spanning the decades between the 1830s and the 1970s, these stories by such old hands as Loren D. Estleman and Gordon D. Shirreffs, as well as relative newcomers like Linda Sparks, introduce the reader to a host of salty characters who must come to terms with the harshness of the American West. Highly recommended for medium to large public libraries and academic libraries supporting writing programs.-Robert Jordan, Univ. of Iowa, Iowa City
Wes LukowskyThese 23 original short stories from members of the Western Writers of America illustrate the genre's strength. There's a quality to the best western writing that accentuates the humanity of its people. Rather than dwarfing the characters, the vastness of the western setting somehow heightens the uniquely personal dramas being played out in archetypal terms. Among the authors represented here are Elmore Leonard, Elmer Kelton, coeditor Jakes, Ed Gorman, Judy Alter, and Loren D. Estleman. The highlights include R. C. House's contemporary tale of three "losers" who find strength and love as a trio; Robert Gleason's haunting portrait of an aged Bat Masterson; and Ed Gorman's very brief but moving tale of a father and son. Notes on the contributors are appended and include information on other works in the genre. A consistently excellent anthology.

What attracted me to the sneakers at first were the laces which makes them look sleeker and it doesn't draw attention away from the shoe. Bought these for work and I must say they're pretty comfy for walking long periods of time. They are sock like so I don't know if socks are meant to be worn with them but when I did my feet were slightly hot but not super uncomfortable. I've gotten many compliments on this shoe and the laces in a particular. I would say to size up half a size because while they are meant to feel like a sock they should still fit like a sneaker meaning having a little tiny bit of wiggle room ... read more
The back of these shoes is way too high, it caused a blister on my heel within the first 10 minutes of a run. I had to take them off to get back home. Other than the back of the shoe being designed horribly, they fit like a glove. Although they did hurt my arch after running as well. Not impressed. ... read more
I love Edge Lux...I have flat feet (no arches) and they fit perfectly. I am on my feet at work all day and at the end of the day, my feet are not painful like they used to be. I have already purchased two pairs and will be ordering more. ... read more
Really comfortable. I will be using them as an everyday shoe rather then a training runner as they have a heavy/well cushioned feeling on your feet, which is perfect as I purchased them as more of a fashion item ... read more
This was my first pair of trainers in many years. They are so light and comfortable. I am a half size so went up and they fit perfectly. No need to wear in-just put them on and go. I would absolutely recommend these for everyday life! ... read more
These shoes ran stiff and the edge of the front inside rubbed on my pinky toe so much that they were very painful to run in. I thought I would like this more structured shoe than the ultra boost. But I prefer the ultra boost and will return these to get another pair of ultra boost. ... read more
I bought these for my daughter- she plays high school volleyball. She wore the shoes around the house to "break them in". When she finally wore them to practice and games, there was not much support. She came home in pain a couple of times before I decided to return them. ... read more
I received these Edge Luxe Shoes in the Adidas Avenue A subscription box with a few other items. I loved them immediately but put them on for a few hours and they were a bit tight around the base of my foot. I don't usually need a wide but maybe with this pair I do. So, not a big deal but I went to put them on again and realized that rubber on the tip of the shoe is peeling back. Again, I wore these for just a few hours at my desk job and they are falling apart? Not happy with the selection of this box. Especially since the FitU watch isn't accurate in step counting and I've reached out to support several times and received no instructions that have worked or made the tracker work properly. It's been calibrated, I did a hard factory reset and yet I still gain 1000 or more steps while sitting in my car in a two hour commute everyday. I really love Adidas but I am so disappointed with these last few items. ... read more
they are very cute shoes but the size is not on point, got 4 pairs and this one was the only one i had to return since I got an 7 and it was more like an 8 or 8 1/2. Just make sure to try them on. there aren't pricey so that's a plus however I got turn off but the size issue so when I went to the adidas store to return them I got the beautiful bounce shoes... now that's $40 extra well spend ... read more
I brought these for my daughter i received them yesterday she love's them. The only thing is I brought white but is more beige so if you'll looking for a all white sneakers don't get these...other then that a great sneakers...ENJOY!!! ... read more
The back of the shoes is too high for me. It caused blisters on both achilles after 10 min of running outside. I had to fold them over to get back home. I had them altered and the back cut and lowered and now they fit perfectly. This is my first Adidas pair, I owe 5 other running shoes , different brand that never caused any issues, even brand new. ... read more
Love this shoe! However, insole gets compressed in a short period of time. I had to buy heel pads for comfort. Suggestion: better quality insole. Really like these shoes for ease of slipping on; love the style; love the overall comfort. ... read more
I'm new at running and tried several brands of running shoes. They all made my shins hurts after a run. But with Adidas bounce, my shins does not hurt so I was able to run longer distance and at a faster pace. I'm going to buy an exact second pair as a spare. Love love love it!! ... read more
I absolutely love this shoe. I've tried various brands, styles, etc. and ran for several years in what I thought were comfortable, supportive sneakers. Having purchased these based on a recommendation at the shop, I now know the difference. I can run far longer and far more comfortably in this shoe than any other I've tried. Believe me, that's an exhaustive list. ... read more
I bought these in black and light grey in Costco. I would like them in white and navy, but I don't know if they have those colors. I have hammer toes on both feet, and this is the only shoe I can wear. I love sandals, but I can no longer wear them. In the winter I can only wear Ug boots. Any suggestions??? ... read more
These shoes are great! I have flat feet and very little natural cushioning on the balls of my feet. These provide great support and cushion. I can run without pain. I've tried a number of other brands and I always come back to Adidas. ... read more
In the past I've mostly bought Adidas Originals sneakers but haven't bought any of their athletic/training style shoes in over a decade. These shoes are probably the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned aside from house shoes. The cushioning is unreal. I haven't used these to work out yet, but after wearing them for several days to walk around and run errands I'm still surprised how good they feel. They fit a little big but they don't feel loose. My hunch is that roomy feel is intentional as it comes from the material stretching to let the foot breathe. ... read more
Maybe it's just my feet, but the backs are way too high and really irritate my heels. Also, though I do have naturally flat feet, after a few blocks in these my arches kill. Otherwise the sneakers are quite comfy on the balls of my feels and pretty cool looking. ... read more
THE MOST COMFORTABLE RUNNING/WALKING SHOE EVER! I have high arches and a very particular toe on my left foot. I have tried several different brands and styles but all were lacking in one way or another. On my way to buy the Ultra Boost I stumbled on to these and really liked the design of the Color Core Black / Black (BB4017) Pureboost X. This shoe is like no other shoe I have every encountered. It literally fits like a glove. I always size up in a running shoe and did the same with this one and for me it was a good decision. The shoe has a glove like feel with amazing arch support and it's like walking on air. Plus the design is really cool! what other shoe has a floating arch support? Good job Adidas. ... read more
The size UK 4 isn't like the rest of the other shoes with that size. It comes as 36 2/3 in Europe instead of 37... In the US this size is size 7 and this says size 5 so check before. The material of the shoe on the outsie is very thin, not great for running as your toes will hurt.. Confortable but I will need a bigger size now. ... read more
I just ordered this pair and another pair of ultra boosts. i really wanted to keep the PureBoostx but the back of the shoe digs into my achilles tendon- its pretty irritating. The suspended arch support is different but nice and fits pretty snug. overall they seem like a great shoe but unfortunately I cant get over the the back of the shoe digging in to my achilles. so disappointed because i really wanted to keep these. ... read more
So light weight and feels like you are not wearing any shoes at all! Great for travelling. Love, love, love this shoe. I came across the grey one originally from a big box store but I absolutely had to order another grey one online at Adidas as a backup! The black is out-of-stock unfortunately. Adidas, I hope you will restock! ... read more
This was my 4th pair of the energy boost - I had the first version and two pairs of the boost 2. Very disappointed in this one. The arch is more narrow and the heel rubs on one my feet. I like the update of the upper, but the other updates are not good. ... read more
7.5 true to size....Comfortable, Stylish, Girlie, COURTSET rocks! Dress up.... Dress down,, the shoe is so versitile. Luv the color silver with the pink neon laces. LUV THEM SO MUCH, I just purchased them in black and silver. ... read more
I really wanted to like this shoe. The design is cute. I have slim feet and they fit like a glove, which I loved. They were lightweight. However, they just rode up way too high on the back of my heel. It irritated my achilles tendon, and I could tell that wearing them for a long time would be uncomfortable. I would love to have the shoe if the shoe could be reworked to ride lower on the heel, like other running shoes. ... read more

The cost of policing is coming under the microscope in Canada.
Toronto Police Chief Bill Blair's hands were tied by the city's police services board after his almost $1-billion budget was frozen, halting all hirings and promotions in 2013.
The picture was not much rosier in Ottawa mid-January, when Public Safety Minister Vic Towes told a national summit on the economics of policing that forces across the country can either "do nothing" and be forced to make drastic cuts or "institute meaningful and structural reforms now" to avoid the axe.
While most other public budgets are feeling the pinch, the 2012 York Regional Police budget rose 6.5 per cent. This year, the force will hire another 51 people, adding further to a staff of more than 2,000 and upping its budget another $13 million — or 5.1 per cent — to $267.6 million.
Only a decade ago, policing was just 25 per cent of the region's tax levy. This year, it's almost 32 per cent.
Police services contend while their budgets are large, the spending has led, in part, to historically low crime rates.
"Cut at your own risk." they tell taxpayers and politicians.
This sort of messaging often leaves the latter group in a quandary — is it possible to stop the 5-per-cent annual budget increases without risking a rise in crime or drop in security?
Many say no, considering 90 per cent of police budgets go to salaries, annual increases and pensions.
While saying his force has more work to do, York Regional Police Chief Eric Jolliffe believes it is ahead of the curve when it comes to implementing cost-cutting measures, noting his force's spending pales in comparison with others of similar size.
Last year, for example, the cost of policing in York Region was $252 per person, versus $281 in Durham and $325 in Niagara.
The force's police-to-population ratio is also lower than others: one officer for every 751 people in 2013, while Durham's ratio is 1:683 and Peel is 1:648.
Although the York force spends more, year over year, its crime clearance rate has risen, from sixth among six comparable forces in 2003 to first last year, Chief Jolliffe said.
Opponents, however, point to large amounts of cash spent on high-tech equipment that other forces, including Toronto, don't have. This includes the Air-2 helicopter, which, during its estimated 20-year life, will run taxpayers $20 million.
There is also an armoured vehicle that cost the force $250,000 and has been used 52 times since it was purchased two years ago.
And although the local crime rate in York Region is very low when compared to the rest of the country, crime rates across the board have been falling for the past 20 years, reaching their lowest point nationally since 1973, according to statistics Canada.
The numbers indicate it's not officers on the beat that are shaping crime statistics, rather an overarching change in culture, critics argue.
Among them is Ray Morand, executive director for the Canadian Taxpayers Alliance, who said the argument growing police forces result in less crime just doesn't add up.
"The drop is all across the country, so that argument is circular," he said. "By that logic, if there is a drop in the budget and a drop in crime, then further lowering the budget will result in a further drop in crime."
Many politicians, who are concerned about public opinion but also about public safety, don't see things this way.
Vaughan Regional Councillor Gino Rosati, a former member of York's police services board, believes as long as the population and inflation rises in the region, so, too, must the police budget.
In fact, after voting for the budget, along with the rest of regional council, last Thursday, he predicted it will continue to grow by at least 3 per cent annually for the next five to 10 years
"If there's population growth, you need to hire more officers to maintain a level of service," he said. "My guess is the population will continue to grow for many years."
Others York Region council members are of the same mind, considering no one has voted against the police budget since an "austerity drive" in the mid-1990s, according to Mr. Rosati.
Still, others are witnessing a shift in public opinion and reading the writing on the wall.
Councillors plan to take a closer look at the police budget in the future Markham deputy mayor Jack Heath said.
He thinks the reduction in Toronto will spread across the GTA, he said. "
The pressure for higher taxes can't always be met. More employees and services cause for more taxes and I don't think taxpayers want that."
He expects police and transit spending to come under a microscope.
Despite calls for budget cuts, though, Chief Jolliffe said it's not as easy as it looks.
The force has been mocked for trying to save money by hiring a private security firm to guard its Aurora headquarters — an estimated savings of $300,000.
"The newspapers took us on because we tried cost cutting; they made fun of it," he said.
Yet the force has been ahead of the curve in terms of "civilianization" — hiring non-officers in a bid to save money on training — bringing on more civilians (33) than officers (18) in 2013, the chief noted.
Meanwhile, his 2013 operating budget is the lowest in 17 years, he said, adding many of the new officers are assigned to units in need, including the force's increasingly short-staffed domestic violence unit.
Chief Jolliffe went on to explain while the police service may cost the taxpayer double that of transit and triple that of roads, it is a service that is forever widening and people's last line of defence.
For example, he openly wondered why his officers were recently tasked with rushing to Toronto to deliver organs as part of a organ donation program.
"Is that the responsibility of the police?" Chief Jolliffe wondered. "We are the only 24-hour, 365 day a year program running. When someone needs help, they can call 911."
On top of that, he said investigation time, for everything from domestic abuse to impaired driving, is growing, putting even more pressure on the service.
Whereas domestic abuse incidents used to be dealt with quite easily, they now regularly take 12 hours of shift time. The same goes for cases of impaired driving, which now regularly go to court.
Ten years ago, it would take two hours to work on an impaired driving file. Now it takes 10 hours to get prosecution in court, he said. This is on top of time spent fighting more sophisticated crime, such as cyber, organized and international crime.
Chief Jolliffe's overall argument boiled down to his belief a police force has to grow with its population, which is projected to go from 1.1 million today to 1.5 million by 2031, or risk falling behind.
"Some people say wait and see," he said. "But I have been in the business for 30 years and my gut tells me that we have to grow with the community. You can't just wake up tomorrow and say, fix it. You have to grow with it."
Regional Councillor John Taylor backed the chief, insisting while local politicians will likely bow to pressure to tighten up budgets in the near future, it is always less costly to "maintain safety than to regain it".
"My gut reaction is if we have some of the safest streets in the country and some of the lowest policing costs, then we're in darned good shape." he said.
