...ones. That puts it right in the center of the drop-off in middle class buying power. Firms including Liz Claiborne (LIZ) and Talbot's (TAL) are in about the same spot. Ann Taylor is probably much better off than genuinely failing retailers including Bon-Ton (BONT) and Gap (GPS). Ann Taylor, of course, is not Wal-Mart which will most likely stay in a world all its own for the duration of the downturn...

Qasab and the team turned on their GPS devices at 6:54 a.m., establishing a spot near Koti Bandar, about 93 miles (150 km) southeast of Karachi, as their starting point. Al-Husseini encountered an Indian fishing trawler, the M.V. Kuber. Qasab's confession states that "once they reached Indian waters, the crew hijacked an Indian fishing vessel."
