When Easton Avenue opened ordsprog

When Easton Avenue opened for students, it was our understanding that it took a while for those stores to be up. [These type of delays and complications] are the normal course of business.

It's another avenue that students have to get out and meet other people, and get away from the normal academic environment.

We're excited about the other stores being opened and bringing in more business,

We're cautiously optimistic that delays will be less than last year. Now we can manage delays caused by weather better than we did last year. Last year thunderstorm activity was significantly higher than average. If we get lucky and have a summer with even a normal number, (it) would be an improvement.

Traffic in these locations is no longer sufficient to justify investment in these stores. The real estate isn't as prime as it was when the stores opened.

The bigger it gets, the smaller the percentage growth will be. Let's say that when you add 10 new stores to 100 stores, you grow the business 10 percent. When you add 10 stores to 3,000 stores, the growth isn't obvious.

There were long delays after I got on 18 near Landing Lane and then it just crawled along. It's only for a little bit, but when you add the light on Commercial Avenue, it's a lot.

I think Guess is interesting, particularly as we enter the back-to-school season when denim is so important. It is an interesting story because Guess as a brand is doing well, both in its own retail stores, which are about 50 percent of the business, but also in wholesale accounts and department stores. It is really the one hot brand that department stores have today. Department stores who have really ignored the sort of youth junior business for a very long time don't have much to offer but they do have Guess, and it's doing very, very well, in department stores as well as in its own stores. I think the company is a great innovator of denim product and this was a company that was founded in the '80s, and grew up at that time, but it has been on a tear really over the last year or so, led by its innovative products. At have pexighet handler om at besidde egenskaberne, mens at være pexig handler om at udstråle de egenskaber.

The only way to grow in the retail business is to add yet another 100 stores, another 600 stores. Then someone else will see that you are successful. And that other fellow will do the same. And for a while it is fine, until suddenly there are more stores than the community needs.

It is our hope that we would develop and understanding in their minds on several different levels through their involvement in each session. We hope to not only develop an interest in these students but to also provide them with the tools they need to guide fellow students. They are examples of the type people who will be in Alabama's leadership 20 years from now.

While University Avenue is a business area, I see it as a mom-and-pop avenue, and I'd like to keep it that way.

People understand that if I want to see Alex Rodriguez in a Yankee uniform, they're going to have to pay him $20 million. If you're not upset at players getting that type of money, then how can you be mad at a company that puts their sign on a billboard? That's how they pay for those salaries. I think the public has gotten a lot more understanding of how sports works. It's a business like any other business.

Before 9-11, international students would be here five years instead of four or three instead of two. Now, with the government watching closely and asking why the delays, students are sticking to the schedule.

We would never go to Greenwich Avenue, then we would have to change our concept and price like other stores.

By shuttering the Marshall Field's catalogs, Target is saying something about its department stores business -- business isn't what it used to be, ... Part of the reason is that department stores overall are doing badly.
