The number one position in brewing can always be reclaimed and reasonably swiftly if

The number one position in brewing can always be reclaimed, and reasonably swiftly if clearance for S&N’s bid opens the way for Bass to buy more leading beer brands or even a regional brewer lock, stock and barrel.
The underlying strength of Bass was evident yesterday in the announcement of an 8.7 per cent increase to pounds 263m in pre-tax profits for the half-year to April. Investors can look forward to an inflation-topping 7.7 per cent rise in the interim dividend to 7.1p.Operating profits from brewing inched up from pounds 68m to pounds 69m, a good performance in a tough market. The division’s share of total operating profits, however, dipped from 24 to 23 per cent as the rest of the business did better.Bass, like Whitbread, is showing that the pubs market in the UK is becoming a highly specialised retailing area, where the big players, with efficient central managements and economies of scale, have a huge advantage over smaller rivals.Owned and managed pubs increased turnover in the first half by 3.6 per cent, despite operating 3.6 per cent fewer outlets.High-margin food turnover grew by 13.3 per cent, and even wet takings, alcoholic and soft drinks, rose 6.6 per cent. The numbers from the leased and tenanted pub estate were nowhere near as good.Profits from leisure advanced 20 per cent to pounds 42m, largely a result of rehousing bingo clubs from cinemas into purpose built flat-floor venues.

Coral Racing, the betting shops side, is holding up despite competition from the National Lottery.Hotels are at last shaking off the recession, especially in the US. Further increases in occupancy levels enabled room rates to be raised, and hotel profits rose almost 5 per cent to pounds 64m.Analysts were heartened by the results and upgraded full-year pre-tax projections by 3 to 4 per cent to about pounds 586m.That gives earnings of 42.4p for a p/e of 14 on the share price of 581p, up 20p yesterday. Good value, backed by a 4.9 per cent yield on forecasts of a 22.7p dividend.Safe as houseswith Land SecsWith a market capitalisation of pounds 3.1bn, representing more than a fifth of the whole quoted property sector, and with all its pounds 5bn property portfolio located in the UK, Land Securities is really just a proxy for the British direct property market. Conservatively managed, and with a good spread of offices, shops and industrial buildings it cannot be expected to do more than mirror the sector as a whole.That said, yesterday’s full-year figures to March were a fraction better than expected, with profits of pounds 244.7m 3 per cent up on last year.

Net assets, the key measure for property companies, were 2.4 per cent higher at 693p, compared with 677p last time and expectations of between 655p and 690p.Thanks to reasonably comfortable dividend cover, a small fall in earnings per share to 35.2p still allowed the full-year payout to increase by 4 per cent to 25p.Hardly exciting stuff, but then the market as a whole is in the doldrums – rents are edging up in prime areas (where Land Secs focuses) but with interest rates moving in the wrong direction, capital values are stagnant and likely to remain so.Working hard just to stand still, the company has recently embarked on a pounds 370m development programme, which is quite the right thing to be doing even though interest charges (which are prudently not capitalised) will eat into already flat profits over the next couple of years.That means that earnings will continue to tread water and dividends will continue to disappoint relative to the market as a whole.Given that Land Secs has in effect gone ex-growth for the foreseeable future, the market is likely to focus on the discount of the share price to the company’s underlying net worth. Having jumped 21p to 613p after yesterday’s figures, the shares now stand at a 15 per cent discount to forecast net assets for the end of this year of 725p.Despite the fact that rents, earnings and dividends are not growing, that is actually a much smaller discount than the company has experienced over the past 10 or 15 years. In other words, just when the market should be more cautious it is actually less so.Land Secs is as safe an investment as anyone wanting an exposure to property could expect to find. But with analysts expecting steady growth in earnings from other sectors, it looks overpriced despite a useful prospective dividend yield of 5.3 per cent.Carlton still has patchy receptionTry as it might, Carlton Communications seems unable to convince the bears that it is doing the right thing. Despite unveiling excellent first-half figures yesterday, the company saw its shares slip 17p to 942p as the market found a clutch of issues to worry about.The core business looks strong, with operating profits from Carlton and Central Television, its two ITV companies, rising to pounds 60m from pounds 17.4m, boosted by the inclusion of a full six months of income from Central. But Film and Television Services were barely up, affected by the sale earlier this year of a New York operation, and video distribution, a growing part of the business, saw profits drop to pounds 32.9m from pounds 35.5m, the victim of higher costs for video packaging and raw materials.The company also warned that its Pickwick subsidiary, which makes low- cost videos for the consumer market, was still having problems and was unlikely to recover in the second half.As well as trading concerns, some analysts are now fretting about what the company might do next, following the Government decision on Tuesday that television companies will now be free, subject to market dominance limits, to buy national newspapers and to invest in cable and satellite services.The company says it will certainly be looking at acquisitions in related media areas, but stresses that any change to Carlton’s basic business would await the outcome of consultations with the Government on proposed reform of cross-media ownership rules.Despite the niggles, analysts were pleased enough to raise their full- year estimates to pounds 250m, or about 60.5p a share. Estimates for 1996 rise to about pounds 288m, for a p/e of 13.On that rating, Carlton stands at a discount to the rest of the sector, partly because of its mix of broadcasting, film processing and video distribution.Longer term, it is not clear how that discount will narrow given concerns about the advertising cycle and the prospects of unspectacular if steady margins in the video distribution business..

Remember the British economic miracle? When the lame British economy picked up its bed and ran. When Tory billboards showed the British bulldog baring his teeth at the French and Germans, proclaiming the turnaround. It was too good to be true, but with consumption booming and house prices soaring, the story was at least plausible at the time – not least to the electorate. You would have thought that the recession of the early 1990s would have put paid to such talk, but now the cheerleaders are daring to show their faces again. We may be in the middle of a too-good-to-feel-good recovery which the Chancellor, for one, believes is too fragile to threaten with another rise in interest rates. But some economists are beginning to claim that the economic miracle that died lives again, and will transcend the first.
At a seminar organised by the National Institute and the Economic and Social Research Council earlier this week, some striking evidence was presented on the continuing underlying improvement in manufacturing productivity , for long the Cinderella of the economy.

In a week that saw the launch of the Government’s second White Paper on competitiveness, Michael Heseltine’s chief economic adviser, Walter Eltis, claimed that three quarters of the productivity gap between Britain and France and Germany in manufacturing had been closed in the past 15 years or so. Productivity levels in French and German manufacturing were now only 10 per cent higher than in Britain.Dr Eltis could easily be accused as trumpeting His Master’s Voice – indeed one observer described his account as Panglossian – but a similar story was told by Nicholas Oulton, who studies productivity at the National Institute. Between 1979 and 1992, manufacturing output per hour had grown in Britain at two and a half times the rate in Germany. Britain had also managed to outperform Japan.So British manufacturing, still largely held in contempt by the Ugly Sisters who count in society, has turned into a ballroom princess? Not quite. Manufacturing may be perfectly shaped now, according to the optimists, but at little over a fifth of GDP it is also small. Its productivity may be growing by leaps and bounds, but output has barely risen since 1979. And as the White Paper admits, the UK has a much bigger tail of poor-performing companies than Germany or the Netherlands.Furthermore, much of the improvement has come through foreign direct investment.

Art expert says finding potential hidden treasures amid “trash” not uncommon.

Prior to his final race, he had six rides, all on Landican Lane, and finished unplaced on each occasion.”It is very sad,” Lord Oaksey, the chairman of the Injured Jockeys’ Fund, said yesterday “He had seemed to be on the way back, so to speak. He wasn’t talking but he had communicated with his family and they were pretty hopeful, but he died at six o’clock on Sunday morning. It is obviously a terrible blow.”Radford is the first rider to die as the result of a fall on a British track since Richard Davis suffered fatal injuries at Southwell in 1996, and the first Flat jockey since Steve Wood, who was trampled after being unseated at Lingfield in 1994.Radford is not the oldest rider to have taken part in a horse race. Harry Beasley was 83 when he rode in his last race in 1935, while Victor Morley Lawson rode his first winner at Kempton in 1973 at the age of 67. Earlier this season, Pal Kallai, 67, contested a Group Three event at Baden-Baden, while Lester Piggott, now 65, is due to return to the saddle for the Emirates Airlines Legends race at Flemington Park, in Australia, a week on Saturday.However, in the aftermath of his serious fall, the combination of Radford’s age and relative inexperience led some to question whether he should have been riding in a competitive event. At the time, both John Maxse, the Jockey Club’s spokesman, and Dr Michael Turner, the Club’s chief medical officer, emphasised that Radford’s age had nothing to do with his injury, a subdural brain haemorrhage. “Injuries of this type can occur in all age groups, it could happen to a 20-year-old,” Dr Turner said.

“There is nothing that we are the least bit concerned about regarding his fitness to hold the licence and ride.”Their views were echoed by Buck Jones, the trainer of Landican Lane “Trevor’s a very fit man,” he said after the accident. “It was his ambition to ride on the racecourse, that’s why he bought this horse. Trevor came in three days a week to muck out and ride out before going to work They put him through the hoop when he got his licence. He was perfectly capable of doing a job, and he had several rides on that horse.”Radford’s death is the latest reminder that every jockey is one misplaced stride away from possible disaster. Riding horses at speed, particularly over fences, is inherently dangerous, but misfortune can still strike anywhere, and at any moment. Just three days ago, Paul Carberry, one of National Hunt’s finest jockeys, was thrown from his mount Harbour Pilot before they had even reached the first flight in a hurdle race at Fairyhouse. Yesterday it emerged that he will be out of action for a minimum of three months.The accident occurred on Carberry’s first day back in the saddle after a five-week layoff with ligament problems.

“He broke his leg below the knee,” Noel Meade, Harbour Pilot’s trainer, said yesterday, “and he has had an operation to insert a pin or a rod in. It is a very clean break and the operation has been a success. They didn’t say how long he will be out but it will be a minimum of three months. He’s having a rough time.”Meade said that he will use “the best rider available” during his stable-jockey’s absence, while Willie Mullins is also searching for a partner for Florida Pearl, who is due to return to action in a valuable race at Down Royal a week on Saturday.Laffit Pincay became the first jockey to win 9,000 races, when he partnered Chichim to victory at Santa Anita on Saturday. Pincay, 53, completed a five-timer at the meeting, becoming the first jockey in the track’s history to win five stakes races on the same day. Pincay became the world’s most successful jockey when he broke Bill Shoemaker’s record of 8,833 winners last December.. The king has lost his crown.

The king has lost his crown. After yesterday’s shock draw in the 13th game of the Braingames World Chess Championship at the Riverside Studios in West London, reigning champion Garry Kasparov, 37, almost certainly faces a sensational defeat at the hands of his former pupil and fellow Russian, Vladimir Kramnik, 12 years his junior.
Two games down with just three to play, and with only one more opportunity to use the advantageous white pieces, it will now take a miracle for Kasparov to retain his title.After only 14 moves of yesterday’s game, the audience was stunned to see Kasparov push a button on the table next to him, turning on a light above the small stage where play has gone on for the past three weeks. It signified he was offering a draw to his opponent, even though he appeared to be in a strong position and the game was in its early stages. As in many previous games, Kasparov had seemed ill-at-ease throughout, shaking his head and looking up to the ceiling as if in an agony of despair.At a brief press conference after the game he was asked bluntly what was wrong. “It is a long story and I will tell all when the match is over. But obviously there are reasons which prevented me from playing well,” he replied, adding that the schedule of four games a week had been difficult for him He would say nothing more. He looked a broken man, both physically and mentally.His short statement added fuel to speculation that some kind of personal problem has been weighing on Kasparov’s mind.

Still, it is true that Tony Blair does sometimes write articles for the tabloids. If you want to find out what Mr Blair thinks, you will have to ask him yourself, which you can’t do, because he is under exclusive contract to us.”A reader writes: Oh, come off it ! How long do you think you can keep up this parallel between Blair and Hague swanning round Northern Ireland, and the two nurses being released from their Saudi prison? Is there any more mileage in it?No. Why, he cannot even keep peace with his own unions! What chance has a gnarled old problem like Northern Ireland got?”Look, I’m only the guy who issues prepared statements on behalf of the Daily Tabloid. Thank you, this informal off-the-record briefing is now over.”And in what sort of shape does he seem now?”Good shape. This additional, further off-the-record briefing is now over.”No, but in that case, just tell us why has he suddenly flitted off to Northern Ireland and started going around the place telling people that they must vote “Yes” in the referendum, as it is their only chance of peace, thus suggesting that he is seriously deranged…”Well, we cannot speak for Mr Blair, of course, but I imagine he is saying that because he believes it.”But everyone knows that this kind of deal doesn’t work! Blair himself has seen at first hand how the Oslo peace deal became unravelled.

Not surprisingly, the experience has driven him close to the edge of a breakdown, but miraculously he has come through the ordeal perhaps even stronger than before and determined to tell his story, which will be only in the Daily Tabloid. That is the end of our prepared statement.”
Yes, but could you give us some idea, just off the record, of what this suffering was like?”He has been kept in close confinement over the last year under most unpleasant circumstances, sometimes alone with Mr Netanyahu and Mr Arafat, sometimes alone with Mr Adams and Mr Trimble, sometimes alone with Mr Kohl and Mr Santer, sometimes alone with Mr Bill Clinton. “Mr Blair and his junior colleague Mr Hague have undergone a great deal of suffering and distress in the past few months,” said the Daily Tabloid in a prepared statement, “so we do not think it is in their best interests to face the public just yet. Also, he is contracted to us exclusively for a large sum of money to talk to us and us only, and we propose to keep him to that. They are of no use to this kind of journalism whatsoever, for they might reveal the truth; and that.

for all the pompous and self- congratulatory rhetoric on display, is not what is really being bought and sold here.. I HAD very much hoped to have an article by Tony Blair in this space this morning, but unfortunately he has been whisked away by the newspaper to which he is contracted to a safe place in Northern Ireland, where he cannot be contacted. Whatever we believe about these women we are operating entirely instinct, guess work and prejudice of one kind or another.It is tempting to see the necessity of creating this new brand of victim- heroines who flaunt their suffering as the result of a post-traumatic stress disorder produced by the death of Diana The media abhors a vacuum and must fill it somehow, anyhow. Murderous au-pairs and nurses will do, as long as we get to feel their pain too.We are not interested in the real victims of all this, for the dead cannot tell their stories. Clearly in future any body breaking the law in a foreign country should be flown home immediately – especially if they are young, female and even a little photogenic – as they could not possibly get a fair trial elsewhere.None of this really qualifies as news but operates as the turning of tragedies into real life whodunnits. Or have we all become such cultural relativists that abuses of human rights are not our business if they interfere with our capacity to do business?Such questions unfortunately will be ignored in an attempt to parade Parry and McLauchlan through the press as victims who have suffered horrendous injustices. They have to tread a fine line between insisting that the Saudi’s are nice guys to do business with and recognising their tendency to behead the odd Filipino.

If we accept that this is a country in which innocent nurses are tortured into making confessions, in which British citizens can be executed in a medieval style, in which lives can be bought and sold – then why are we selling them so many arms?It is extremely difficult to see what is remotely ethical in all this. Who says victimhood isn’t powerful?However many of us feel uneasy, just as we did with Louise Woodward, when British women abroad are presumed innocent no matter what courts in far away lands might say.It is easy enough to whip up anti-Islamic feeling, just as it was easy to deride a legal system that freed OJ Simpson. The same people who decried the payment of pounds 15,000 to Mary Bell will be happy to see these two women make large amounts of money. Had the death sentence been carried out on Parry, business as usual would have been difficult to maintain. This is why British Aerospace which has huge contracts in the region came up with the blood money for Frank Gilford.Is all this part of the “ethical foreign policy” that Robin Cook proudly proclaims? The huge arms deals to Saudi Arabia mean that Blair and Cook have in some ways to keep the Saudi’s sweet so that they remain an important alley in a volatile area. The murdered woman herself was said at one point to have been a lone-shark.All these financial dealings appear incredibly sordid.

Highpoint One was the first successful tower block in England: and very few since have been as pleasant to look at and live in. “The best and healthiest site in the whole of London,” swooned the original Thirties sales pitch, “less than 30 minutes from the City and the West End.” Atop Highgate Hill, it has amazing views over the capital. Its designer was the pioneering Modernist architect Lubetkin, who also produced the penguin ramp at London Zoo.

The commission came from Sigmund Gestetner, who wanted homes for the staff of his office equipment factory in Tottenham, north London. Far from becoming a Modernist role model for low-cost housing, Highpoint was too pricey for the workers even before it came on the market in 1936. The middle classes took possession instead – including Lubetkin.

Wynonna: “Too Soon” for Taylor Swift to Win Entertainer of the Year

If they were, we know we will all stand accused in the hearts and minds of millions of non- Muslims. The wave of sympathy we feel for the victims and their families (innocent Muslims may well be found among the many victims) and the fury rising in our communities against these violators of life and faith will not be noticed. Instead Islamophobia will once more erupt worldwide and be legitimised by some political leaders.It is OK to hate a Muslim again. Already Russians are strutting about claiming vindication for their inhumane destruction of Chechnya and Israel is looking decidedly smug, expecting no more condemnations of its increasingly ruthless actions against Palestinians. Hindu fundamentalists have started e-mailing their anti-Muslim messages around the world and I have just heard that here a group of young Sikhs spat on and threw stones at some Muslims girls walking home from school. They were shouting abuse and accusing them of giving Asians a “bad name”.What will make the next months even harder is that the lunatic and murderous factions who call themselves Islamic will be encouraged by the power of their methods, and those who are brought up to hate the West (a hatred that too often works against them) will rejoice, and this, too, will add to our burdens.

Living in the West we will be seen as the enemy within by both sides, and we now know just how this will press in on our lives.Jewish and Irish Britons will understand what a difficult balancing act it is to walk that tightrope where you are furious and indignant for being held responsible for the evil actions of others, but you know you cannot claim absolute disconnection. Every time the IRA bombs mainland Britain, Irish Britons find themselves under suspicion. Jewish Britons these days are frequently asked to pronounce on Sharon as if they have to make constant pledges in order to remain on the left side of liberalism. None of us caught in this can avoid thick and steady guilt that soon overwhelms, especially in the aftermath of truly horrific events.It is far, far worse if you are a liberal Muslim or a Muslim whose faith lives comfortably with the values of the West.

Most American and European Muslims would say this about their lives. They have many justifiable complaints about discrimination and the hatred that they face, but many of us now see ourselves as people of Europe not just Muslims who happen to be in Europe. That is not how we are perceived by the West, and there are many Muslims who abhor this integrationist position.I have already heard from young Muslims who defend the Taliban and burn with anti-US sentiments I share some of these. US policy in Iraq and Israel upset the mildest of us, but, no, we would not kill American citizens to avenge these, nor would we make excuses for those who do. But who cares about these distinctions? All Pakis are now terrorists and so fair game. So we brace ourselves again for a period of bile and beatings and hate mail and furious writers who will take no time to reflect but will decry Islam and Muslims.

Remember the prophetic pronouncements of Bernard Levin after Oklahoma? “Do you realise?” he thundered. “In half a century, no more, fanatical Muslims will be winning wars around the world and Oklahoma will be called Khartoum on the Mississippi.” The newspaper Today had a picture of a fireman holding a baby with the headline “In the name of Islam”. It turned out to be all-American white boys who had plotted this barbarism but the prejudices remained intact.I presented a documentary for Channel 4 in the aftermath of the Oklahoma bombing. In the US, Senator Dave McCurdy and Jeff Kaymen, a Washington writer, were both responsible for careless and emotive outbursts against Muslim extremists they say plot and live in the US They were unrepentant when they found that they were wrong. In that time and space between blame and truth, Muslims in the US lived through hell. Their children were abused and attacked in schools, homes were stoned and mosques shot at. One Iraqi woman I interviewed, a refugee, had a miscarriage at seven months in front of her three-year-old after she had to barricade herself against a mob throwing stones outside her small house.
