If you want to revamp your image, you must consider the passenger experience. Garuda Indonesia, which began a fleet revitalization programme in 2009, shows us how it is embracing customer 'centricity'. A new Super First Class will be introduced to the carrier's new three-class Boeing 777-300ERs. Deliveries begin in 2013.

Is FAA going above and beyond with interference testing?
Unsubstantiated rumors are circulating that the US FAA may be going above and beyond normal electro magnetic interference (EMI) testing protocol when in-flight connectivity service providers seek supplemental type certification (STC) for their systems on aircraft, and that that is the reason why Honeywell Phase 3 Display Units blanked out during STC testing of Aircell's […]
Boeing conducts broad avionics review after Wi-Fi interference
Boeing's investigation into why in-flight connectivity interfered with Honeywell's Phase 3 Display Units (DU) during electro magnetic interference (EPI) testing is not merely limited to those particular Honeywell parts. The US airframer, which has offered the Phase 3 DUs on aircraft since July 2009, is currently mired in the laborious process of determining whether any […]
Boeing rakes in the orders for 737 Sky Interior
Say what you will about the delayed Boeing 787 programme the airliner's interior is inspiring. So much so, in fact, that Boeing used the same passenger satisfaction approach to develop its new NextGen 737 Boeing Sky Interior. As previously reported, FlyDubai was among the five launch customers that took delivery of 737s with the Boeing […]
Industry expert Jon Norris tables IFEC forecast for 2011
What does 2011 hold for in-flight entertainment and connectivity (IFEC)? That's not the easiest question to answer. After all, technology is moving SO fast, and a host of new players are entering the field. I decided to put the query to industry expert Jonathan Norris, who holds the title of vice-president cabin design office at […]
PHOTOS: Will I need a butt cushion for Lufthansa's new seat?
I don't have a lot of cushion on my derriere these days (although I'm going to work hard to change that over the holidays…more stuffing please!). So, when I saw the new slim seat being fitted to Lufthansa's short- and medium-haul fleet, I must admit I cringed just a little bit and wondered whether I […]
PHOTOS: FlyDubai 737 gets gussied up with Lumexis IFE
By now, most of you are aware that Lumexis has completed installation of its lightweight fiber optics-based in-flight entertainment system (IFE) – integrated with Recaro seats – on the first of many FlyDubai Boeing 737s. But the story of how the retrofit was accomplished is fascinating, and worth highlighting. Because the Lumexis system is not […]
PHOTOS: Twin-aisle narrowbody is a piece of cake
If the contest for Republic Airways Holdings' narrowbody order had not been a contest, and merely involved a creatively financed, unchallenged arrangement between the US carrier and Bombardier, then it is safe to say that the aviation industry would not exactly be buzzing about the CSeries, and Airbus and Boeing would not be evaluating the […]
Two aisles are better than one
A few months ago I posted a blog about how airlines could freshen up the cabins of their current-model Airbus and Boeing narrowbodies with new twin-aisle configurations. Well, the concept of a twin-aisle narrowbody is back in the fray, but this time, for new-design aircraft. Airlines – particularly some European airlines – are understood to […]
UPDATE: The list of operators & equipment with Koito seats
UPDATED to make note that Singapore Airlines' Airbus A380s and Boeing 777s are impacted too. The list will need to be revised to reflect this. News agencies from around the world have published articles about the Koito seat scandal, including our own. But nobody has been able to come up with a definitive list of […]

Learn Your Way Around Circular Knitting: Tutorial
Knitting flat projects on straight needles is all well and good, but if you want to make seamless garments (hats, gloves, pullover sweaters) circular knitting is the way to go. This post is aimed at those knitters who are looking for a step-by-step tutorial to get started on circular knitting.
First, there are two sets of tools you can use for circular knitting: circular needles, which are two needles joined by a cord and double-point needles, which are usually sold in sets of five.
Whichever type of needles you use, the principles of circular knitting are the same.
1. The first step, as always, is to cast on. If you're working on double-point needles, I recommend casting all the stitches onto one needle to start.
2. Next, you need to make your stitches ready for joining in the round. For circular needles, this means spreading out your stitches from the tip of one needle across the cord to the tip of the second needle. It might be a tight fit. That's normal as knitting tends to loosen up and spread out as you work. But if it's too tight, you might need to transfer your stitches to a needle with a shorter cord.
For double-point needles, you need to distribute your stitches across three or four needles. This choice comes down to a personal preference. You have to have one needle free to knit with. It works best to distribute your stitches as evenly as possible. To distribute the stitches, you just slip the stitches purlwise from one needle to the next.
As a final step before you join, make sure your stitches aren't twisted. You'll know it when you see it, like this:
Now that I've untwisted the stitches, I can join my two ends.
3. There are a couple of methods for joining in the round, explained here. Make sure you mark the beginning point of your round. When knitting on double-points, one trick for knowing the end of the round without using a marker is to vary the number of stitches on your needles. You can then remember that the needle with the most stitches on it is the last needle in the round, for example. If you use a marker, though, be sure to put it between the first and second stitches so it won't slide off. (You can mark either the first needle or the last needle in a round, just so long as you remember.)
4. Now you're ready to start your pattern. The most common way to hold circular knitting is with the point you're working in the circle closest to you. This way, you're knitting right side out.
You can hold your needles so the knitting point is farthest from you. In that case, you are working your knitting inside out. The side facing into the knitting circle is actually the right side of the work if you hold the needles this way.
I think it's easiest to visualize your project, though, if you work it the first way.
5. When knitting on double-point needles, your project is on three or four needles. The needle you knit with is the 4th or 5th needle. When your knitting is joined and ready to go, pick up the empty needle and start working your first round. As you knit all the stitches on each needle, the left-hand needle will now be empty and ready to turn into the right-hand, working needle.
Once you've got your project cast on and joined, circular knitting isn't much different from straight knitting. The neat thing about circular knitting is how fast it can go. Stockinette stitch in the round is created by knitting every stitch, which makes it fly by. After a few rounds, you'll be so used to the rhythm of circular knitting, you'll want to knit everything this way. Binding off in circular knitting is also done the same as in straight knitting.
After you've tried circular knitting, come back and let me know:
Do you prefer working on circular needles or on double-points?

How to Make a Gum Paste Shoe: A Step in the Right Direction
I've been delighted with circular needles since I received one of them in a magazine, beginning of the 80′s.
But now that I know we can knit literally anything with them, I just keep my straights as decoration.
After completing Stefanie Japel's Craftsy class "Circular Knit Lab: Hats Four Ways," I definitely prefer circular needles. She covers all methods of knitting in the round, including using double-pointed needles, but I prefer circulars: one short circular needle, two short circulars or the magic loop method. After completing her class, I have no problem knitting circularly and I look forward to completing Mary Jane Muckelstone's Fair Isle Vest Class.
I love my circulars, heck I use them even when knitting flat! I like the security of the cord
I love my circs! In fact, I've gotten rid of most of my straights and knit even flat pieces on my circs. DPNs used to completely befuddle me, but with practice, I have finally made my peace with them. I prefer using DPNs over magic loop on circs for smaller pieces.

UFC rankings 12/16/13: Departure of GSP produces plenty of changes
For the first time in more than five years, Georges St-Pierre does not sit atop the UFC welterweight division.
Last Thursday, the long-reigning champion announced that he was abdicating the throne and taking an extended hiatus from the sport to deal with some personal issues, marking the first time since October 14, 2006 that neither of the two men consider by most to be the greatest fighters in the history of the UFC (and perhaps MMA as a whole) – St-Pierre and Anderson Silva – has worn championship gold around their waist.
With St-Pierre stepping away from the Octagon, the UFC Fighter Rankings have undergone some changes, most notably in the pound-for-pound ranks, where seven fighters move up and women's bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey debuts at No. 10.
On the strength of his first-round knockout win over rival Joseph Benavidez on Saturday night, UFC flyweight champion Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson leapfrogs interim bantamweight titleholder Renan Barao to break into the Top 5. Following his loss, Benavidez falls one place in the 125-pound divisional ranks to sit at No. 2.
The other changes of note happened in the bantamweight division, where former WEC title challenger Scott Jorgensen tumbled three spots following his debut in the flyweight division, coming to a stop at No. 10 in the 135-pound weight class. Future opponents TJ Dillashaw and Mike Easton both climbed one spot, as did Japanese veteran Takeya Mizugaki.

10 years after introducing 43 Things to the world, we have decided we have met our last goal: completing the incredible experience that has been 43 Things. Please join us in giving one last cheer to all the folks who have shared their goals with the world, as well as all the people who have worked at The Robot Co-op to build this incredible website. We won a Webby Award, published a book, and brought happiness to a lot of people.
Starting today, 43 Things users can export their goals and entries from the site. Starting August 15, we will make the site "read only". 43 Things users will still be able to view the site and export their content, but we won't be taking any new content from users. We hope to leave the site up for folks to see and download their content until the end of the year. Ending on New Year's Eve takes us full circle.
It has been a long ride (one of our original goals was to "build a company that lasts at least 2 years" - we beat that one!) While we wish the site could live on, it has suffered from a number of challenges - changes in how people use the site, the advertising industry, and how search engines view the site. We wish the outcome was different – but we've always been realistic about when our goals are met and when they aren't.
As of today, you will be able to download your goals and entries. See more about that on the FAQ page. Thanks for 10 great years of goal-setting and achieving.

I'd like to tell you that I'm "no one, really" but that's Knox Harrington, the video artist. If you note my 43things, I've got an odd life, but I'm not a musician. In 2006, I was sent to Europe, mostly France with stops in Prague, Italy, andd Budapest. Two years later, I was back in America and declared myself retired. No dice. I got shipped from my hideout in rural ID to Asia, mostly Japan with engagements in Taipei, Germany, and London. My contract is up and I've got one last commitment in Poland, a month in France and then (maybe) back to America. Tomah, WI was one of my favorite places as a child and I once took my old lady to Mt. Horeb. I'm glad to hear you have a child—I'm childless myself (a little sad about it) so never underestimate your child. Given the current state of the world, I hope you have secure work. If I can ever help… 3 years ago
I'll send you something? Fun or cash? But it will be a while because I'm "mid-world-tour". 3 years ago
How can I ever repay you?
You've done humanity a service. 3 years ago
Nope. Still a mystery 3 years ago

Dave (Guest)
That block does often seem to be full of trash. I think it must be mostly rentals, with a relatively high turnover rate for tenants. Combine that with improper containers for their trash on trash day, and possibly also animals or people ripping the flimsy bags open...
Concerned (Registered User)
Mostly young adults not trained at home. They think someone else is "suppose" to clean up after them. Landlord should conduct a training class.
Chronically Blocked Bike Lane ► Open27th St & South St Philadelphia, PA 19146, USA
West-bound cars making right turns consistently cut off cyclists (often jumping a portion of the sidewalk as well) attempting to do the same in order to make a quicker turn.
Alex (Registered User)
That's a problematic turn for a number of reasons, and I'm not sure it is possible to make the turn in a larger car without crossing into the bike lane. The fault is more with the poor design than with the drivers.
Rat infestation worse than usual HUGE and FEARLESS ► Open1801-1849 Rittenhouse Square Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
The rats are particularly large and numerous even in the early evening hours in and around the square. They are very bold and even with numerous people and dogs around they are sauntering and cavorting right around people's feet!! There are always rats in the park at night but it is noticeably bad lately - also there are huge rat burrows dug all over around the edges of the park, sometimes a huge pile of dirt on the sidewalk next to a new burrow in the morning.· Reported by An anonymous SeeClickFix user · Share · Flag Flagged
Non-Protected Pedestrian Walkway ► Archived10 North 15th St Philadelphia, PA

CIAA fans polled outside the Charlotte Convention Center on Friday were unanimous: Charlotte is the perfect city for the basketball tournament, and they want it to stay.
"If it wasn't in Charlotte, I wouldn't go," said Virginia State fan Nicole Harris, 24, of Chesterfield, Va. "I wouldn't drive all the way to Atlanta."
"It's a tradition now," said Miss Black Piedmont Tiffany Benedict, 26, of High Point. "Everybody knows the CIAA is here."
The tournament is free to leave Charlotte for another venue after this year, and the CIAA last year rebuffed the city's request to exclusively negotiate a contract extension.
The association has said it will issue a formal request that all interested cities submit proposals, although it hasn't done so yet. At stake is one of Charlotte's biggest tourism events, estimated to create more than $40 million in economic impact.
If fans who were polled by the Observer on South College Street had their say, the tournament would be in Charlotte permanently. They said Charlotte is not only right geographically, it's easy to walk to events, restaurants and night life once you're here.
"Raleigh was too spread out, and there wasn't enough to do," Steven Easley, 35, here from Cincinnati with his photography business, said of the former CIAA tournament location.
Charlotte's police presence also makes you feel safer, colleague Ven Sherrod, 38, of Chicago said. He also likes the offerings at the EpiCentre.
Tonya Dawson of Cincinnati just turned 33 and attends the tournament each year as a birthday gift to herself. "You can walk from your hotel to each location and event," she said. "I feel it's safer. This is where the CIAA should be."
"Charlotte and the CIAA are synonymous," said Christina Griffin, 32, of Cincinnati. Plus, she said, "the downtown is so clean."

Fairway Group Holdings Corp. Reports Third Quarter Results
NEW YORK, Feb. 6, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fairway Group Holdings Corp. ("Fairway") (Nasdaq:FWM), the parent company of Fairway Market, today announced financial results for its fiscal 2014 third quarter ended December 29, 2013.
- Net sales increased 22.9% in the third quarter to $205.7 million
- Gross margin and merchandise margin improve
- Adjusted EBITDA increased from $12.4 million to $12.8 million
- Customer transactions increased by 27.4% and excluding Red Hook increased by 23.6% over the prior year
- Lease terms improved for flagship location on 74 th and Broadway
- Company initiated organizational realignment designed to enhance productivity and streamline operations
- Private label continues to grow as a percentage of sales
Charles Santoro, Executive Chairman said, "During the quarter, we grew our revenues and market share, made progress on a number of long-term margin initiatives and enhanced the visibility of our real estate pipeline. While our business faced a number of headwinds during the quarter including a tougher comparison over last year, the compressed holiday shopping season and a generally softer retail backdrop, we remain excited about our long-term growth prospects. We have also strengthened our senior leadership structure, and announced several important promotions to enhance operations and productivity initiatives as Fairway evolves to the next level of growth and scale. Fairway's differentiated food retail platform remains well positioned to capture incremental market share as we continue to expand our store base and capitalize on the shifting consumer focus towards healthy living and value."
Operating Results for the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2014For the third quarter of fiscal 2014, net sales increased $38.4 million, or 22.9%, to $205.7 million from $167.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2013. Net sales growth in the quarter was driven primarily by the new stores opened subsequent to September 29, 2012 and the net sales from the Red Hook, Brooklyn location ("Red Hook"), which was closed for the last nine weeks of the third quarter in the prior year. On a pro-forma basis to include the lost sales from the Red Hook store, net sales increased 14.3% in the quarter.

|(1) The pro-forma adjustments are made to account for the temporary closing of the Company's Red Hook, Brooklyn store due to Hurricane Sandy and therefore make more meaningful comparisons between periods. The Red Hook, Brooklyn store was closed beginning October 29, 2012 and re-opened on March 1, 2013. Pro forma net sales for the quarter ended December 30, 2012 reflect a pro forma adjustment of $12.7 million based on the Red Hook location's net sales during the same 9 week period in the prior fiscal year. The actual adjusted EBITDA includes business interruption insurance proceeds of $2.5 million for the third quarter. As a result, no pro-forma adjustment is needed for adjusted EBITDA.

Guys locker room erection
Growing up in middle school and high school I always had a problem taking a shower with the other boys.
Many of the boys in high school would walk around the locker room with an erection. Rubbing it against the smaller guy's and bragging about how big they were. My penis was very small about 1" with out an erection. In the locker room the guys would always make fun of me a tell me I was more like a girl. I realize it know that many of those guys were most likely gay. A few of the guys next to me used to come over a pinch my penis and when I got and erection about 3" would push me around the locker room and making sure everyone would see me. Once they pushed me outside in front of some girls and I was so ashamed not only did I not have en erection but it was almost an completely inside my body less then an inch and some of the girls thought it was so funny and did in fact make fun of me. A few girls were teasing me about my small penis and I had an erection at the time and they talked me into showing it to them.
That turned out to be cool because they thought it was small but a cute erection and three of them touched and played with it right outside the boys locker room! Mens swimwear Male chastity
One of the asshole guys onetime made me touch his erection in the locker room when no one else was around. We were in there shower and he made me stroke him with soap. He made me stand there as he put soap on my body then he rubbed my cock with soap and I got an erection. He soaped my ass and stuck his finger in it. My eyes started tearing up and I told him to leave me alone but he said he would pull his finger out and stick his cock in. I begged him to leave me alone and said other guys could come in the locker room at anytime and what would happen if they saw him. He then said I had a choice he would stick it in my ass, I could suck his cock or he would kick my ass and still do one or the other. He was so much bigger then me so I decided to have him pull his finger out and fuck me rather then suck him. He already had a lot of soap in my as and he slid his cock all the way in my ass which made me cry in pain but before he could start pumping a teacher came in and he quickly pulled it out and I even faster got out of that locker room and never took a shower unless there were lots of guys in there. I am now a bisexual man and I have learned to love seeing guys in the locker room and it's always fun to see the younger guys walking around with an erection that they have no control over. I never grew much larger then 3" hard but there are a lot of guys that seem to appreciate it in the men's locker room and unlike the early years I enjoy showing it and sharing it and the once in a while that I have sex in the guys locker room it's always fun and exciting and not a nightmare like in high school, now it's all fun.

CEO Cashes Out as Bank Seeks U.S. Loan
Updated from Tuesday, Oct. 28
The top executive at a midsize bank holding company is retiring with a more than $12 million payday, even as the company is applying for a government investment that could restrict such windfalls.
The South Financial Group (TSFG) on Tuesday said Chairman, President and CEO Mack Whittle had left his post, effective Monday. Whittle had earlier said he would leave by the end of the year, and during a conference call to discuss the company financial results last week he made no indication the timing had changed.
The unexpectedly sudden departure comes just days after the bank announced it plans to apply for a federal investment through the Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP, which contains provisions that void existing compensation agreements in order to prevent "golden parachutes.""The timing is precarious as hell," says Adam Barkstrom, analyst with Sterne Agee. Barkstrom wonders whether regulators insisted that Whittle be relieved of his responsibilities as a condition of participation in TARP. Another possibility, he suggested, is that the decision was driven by the company to protect Whittle's compensation from TARP. Asked about the timing of Whittle's departure, the South Financial Group spokeswoman Mary Gentry said only the management transition is "moving smoothly." She downplayed any connection between Whittle's departure and the company's TARP application. "The company is living up to the terms of an agreement entered into prior to the creation of TARP and we had no choice but to honor our obligations. Mack's the founder of the company and this contract reflects his years of service," Gentry says.

Wedding: 8/30/2014
My husband and I were married here on August 30, 2014. I cannot say enough good things about this venue!! We had our walk-thru with Stephanie back in January and dealt with her from start to finish. She got back to me promptly every time I emailed her and was great each correspondence. As the time got closer she really understood what I wanted and delivered. We got there on Friday afternoon with a lot of our family members in tow and I booked the honeymoon suite for the night before so we could get ready in the room all day with no stress, I HIGHLY recommend doing that. The rehearsal dinner was great, Stephanie knows how to handle a group of people, that's for sure!
The day of the wedding Stephanie was there calm and amazing. She went from helping my mom steam my dress, to setting up the ceremony/reception, and wrangling some of our wedding party who had some other plans of their own.
Walking into the reception was awesome, I feel like she read my mind and everything looked EXACTLY how I imagined. The wedding was so fun and I have received nothing but compliments.
Don't let the parking situation scare you if that's what is holding you back. We just stressed to our guests that they need to make time for parking, and not just an extra 30 minutes. I can gladly say that we were missing only 1-2 people for the ceremony!
Book the Balboa Inn!
Wedding: 6/2/2015
My husband and I looked at 22 previous locations before we found the Balboa Inn. Let me tell you we were exhausted, but once we walked the premises of their historic building, we fell in love with the location! Balboa Inn has everything; a block away from the ferry to the island, an amazing Ocean view, the boardwalk and a great staff! Our wedding coordinator, Stephanie was involved in every detail of our wedding. She was extremely helpfull and was %100 committed to making everything as perfect as it could be for our wedding day. She made us feel like we were the only wedding and any future engaged couples will be lucky to have her as their coordinator!
Wedding: 7/20/2012
no parking
Wedding: 4/21/2012
Everyone was very nice up until the day of. I had a little over 100 guests and this seemed to overwhelm the staff. The coordinator was rushing me and stressing me out. The coordinator also left before we even did the cake cutting and if one of my friends didn't step in to help my wedding would not have gone well. Some of my guests couldn't see during the reception because of the wall placement and apparently one of the lights was out in the back so it was dark at one of my tables. Also they will let random people into your wedding because they keep the bar open to everyone. The valet was charging people more money than was agreed upon and they even lost the keys to my friend's car. The room we got to get ready in was very small, but the honeymoon suite we got after the wedding was nice. The ceremony went well. Everyone liked the food and decorations were done well.

Out of africa was a great place to stay for our family vacation this past year. We loved the open floor plan and that each room had a flat screened tv! We like to make meals instead of going out to eat and the kitchen had everything we needed to make all of our meals. The house was great and we can't wait to go back.

Ituran Location And Control Ltd. Presents Results For The Third Quarter 2012
AZOUR, Israel, November 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
Ituran Location and Control Ltd. (NASDAQ: ITRN, TASE: ITRN), today announced its consolidated financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.
Highlights of the Third Quarter of 2012
- A 14 thousand quarterly increase in net subscribers to a record of 653 thousand subscribers as of September 30, 2012, the highest net growth in subscribers in 10 quarters
- Gross margin at 50.3% and operating margin at 20.1%;
- Excluding currency effects and a one-time income related to Mapa in the third quarter of last year, operating profit grew in excess of 15% over last year;
- EBITDA of $10.6 million or 28.9% of revenues;
- Generated $7.2 million in operating cash flow; ended the quarter with $28.0 million in net cash and equivalents;
- Dividend of $2.6 million declared for the quarter.
Third Quarter 2012 ResultsRevenues for the third quarter of 2012 were $36.8 million, representing a 11.7% decline from revenues of $41.7 million in the third quarter of 2011. 76.4% of revenues were from location based service subscription fees and 23.6% from product revenues. Revenues from subscription fees were $28.1 million, a decrease of 6.6% over the same period last year. The decrease in subscription fees was due to the weakening of the Brazilian Real, Israeli Shekel and Argentinean Peso against the US dollar. In local currency terms, subscription revenues grew by 9.0% compared with the third quarter of last year due to the increase in the subscriber base, which expanded from 619,000 as of September 30, 2011, to 653,000 as of September 30, 2012. The growth primarily came from an increase in subscribers in Brazil, following the strategic changes management put in place in past quarters. Product revenues were $8.7 million, a decline of 25% compared with the same period last year. The decline was partially due to the above-mentioned currency effects. In addition, in the third quarter of 2011, the Company made a large one time license sale of data from Mapa in the amount of approximately $2.5 million. Gross profit for the third quarter of 2012 was $18.5 million (50.3% of revenues), a decrease of 11.5% compared with $20.9 million (50.2% of revenues) in the third quarter of last year. The decrease is attributed to the above mentioned decline in revenues. Operating profit for the third quarter of 2012 was $7.4 million (20.1% of revenues), a decrease of 21% compared with an operating profit of $9.3 million (22.3% of revenues) in the third quarter of 2011. The decrease in operating profit compared with last year was due to the abovementioned currency effect and the sale of license data by Mapa which boosted the operating income in the third quarter of last year. Excluding these two effects, operating profit in the third quarter of 2012 would have exceeded operating profit in the third quarter of 2011 by approximately $1.5 million. EBITDA for the quarter was $10.6 million (28.9% of revenues), a decrease of 21.8% compared to an EBITDA of $13.6 million (32.7% of revenues) in the third quarter of 2011. Financial income in the third quarter of 2012 was $196 thousand compared with a financial income of $851 thousand in the third quarter of 2011. Net profit was $5.2 million in the third quarter of 2012 (14.2% of revenues), compared with a net profit of $6.6 million (15.9% of revenues), as reported in the third quarter of 2011. Fully diluted EPS in the third quarter of 2012 was US$0.25, compared with fully diluted EPS of US$0.32 in the third quarter of 2011. Cash flow from operations during the quarter was $7.2 million. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had net cash, including marketable securities and deposits for short and long term, of $28.0 million or $1.33 per share. This is compared with $22.9 million or $1.09 per share as at June 30, 2012. For the third quarter of 2012, a dividend of $2.6 million was declared in line with the Company's stated policy of issuing at least 50% of net profits in a dividend, on a quarterly basis. Eyal Sheratzky, Co-CEO of Ituran, said, "Overall we are very pleased with the results of the third quarter. In particular, the general trend of improving margins towards the top end of our historical range is a good sign, as well as the growth rate in the subscriber base which has returned in line with our targets. The net adds in the subscriber base, the majority of which were in Brazil, are now at a level which we are content with. On a local currency basis, our subscriber revenues grew strongly compared with last year, driven by this growth in our subscriber base. All these improvements are the fruits of efforts and due to the changes we implemented in the past few quarters." Conference Call Information

Paris Hilton Thought Cocaine Was Gum
According to a police report, Paris Hilton thought the cocaine found in her purse in Las Vegas over the weekend was chewing gum.
"I saw a small bindle of what I believed to be cocaine in a clear baggie begin to fall from the purse and into my hand," an officer wrote. Hilton, he said, claimed "she had not seen it, but now thought it was gum."
Paris, 29, who has been charged with felony drug possession, has said neither the purse she was carrying nor the cocaine inside it belonged to her, and that she was borrowing it from a friend. The officer who stopped Hilton and friends in Sin City Friday night also wrote in his report that a "strong odor of marijuana" was coming from their car.
Do you believe Paris thought the cocaine was gum? Holler back in the comments.

Global Macro: Europe's on the Upswing
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- iShares Europe 350 Index (IEV), an exchange-traded fund, rose on Monday as German business morale improved in February and as Moody's upgraded Spanish debt.
The improved sentiment -- if substantiated by hard positive economic data -- may lead to higher European equities in coming weeks.
A reading of German business morale for February reached its highest level since July 2011, suggesting the European Union could grow faster in the first quarter after modest growth last year.
The survey data, released Monday, show that the economic recovery has picked up momentum the past few months, which has been great for financial markets. Still, hard economic data have yet to find solid footing. Exports, industrial output and durable goods orders all fell in December, leading some economists to warn that the economy may be diverging from the survey's findings.(FXE) and iShares Europe look to be taking a pause at overhead resistance levels as investors await policy decisions by the European Central Bank next week. IEV data by YCharts At the time of publication, the author had no position in any of the funds mentioned.

The Department of Transportation is using the last of its transit grants under the economic stimulus law to build wind turbines to power three bus buildings in Lafayette, Ind., and linking several administration goals at once.
The $2.2 million project for the Greater Lafayette Public Transportation Corp. caps $8.78 billion awarded for 1,072 transit improvement grants under the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The DOT says the grants have created about 10,000 transit-related jobs.
The Lafayette agency, known as CityBus, will use its grant to install three wind turbine units for the transit buildings. They are projected to generate 72,000 kilowatt hours per year, the DOT says, or enough to power the entire facility.
Wind Tower news from JOC:
Moving Air.
The Obama administration has used the stimulus infrastructure projects to bolster the nation's transportation systems, create jobs in construction and manufacturing as well as the transit systems, and curb the use of power sources that create greenhouse gases.
Federal Transit Administrator Peter Rogoff said the ARRA grants have gone into various transit system upgrades and to buy new equipment "that will improve our quality of life, lower our dependence on oil, and save taxpayers money in the long run."
The final grant to CityBus was awarded under the Transit Investment in Greenhouse Gas and Energy Reduction program. The program made $100 million in ARRA funds available for capital projects that cut energy use or greenhouse gas emissions.

Why Writers Should Ask Themselves 'Can You Do This?'
How do you prepare for pitching your next article or book? On today's edition of the Morning Media Menu, we spoke with Daniel Pink, the bestselling author of To Sell is Human: The Surprising Truth About Moving Others.
Pink explored his new book, sharing some unexpected rejection advice for writers. He also explained how he used Qualtrics Research Suite to gather reporting for his book. Here's an excerpt:
If you're going to pitch a book or pitch an article to a magazine editor, the conventional view is that we should pump ourselves up that we should say to ourselves, "You can do it!" Positive, affirmative self-talk. What the research shows is that it's actually more effective to questions your abilities. To go from "You can do it" to "Can you do this?" Because questions, by their very nature, elicit an active response. So when you say "Can you do this?" you have to answer. And in that answer is the preparation, the rehearsal and the review of the strategy. I've used that a lot, going from positive, affirmative self-talk to interrogative self-talk.

I just bought a set of Marta SL brakes off of eBay. I didn't realize that the caliper was designed for IS mounts. Have never seen this before. Anyhow, I have a Niner post mount fork and need to find an adapter to convert my IS caliper to PM. I have found some discussions about doing this on the web but in all honesty I think I may have gotten myself even more confused! I think it can be done but I'll have to go from a 160mm rotor to a 180mm but that won't be a problem. Can anyone tell me if I'm thinking correctly and if this is the adapter that I need? Thanks!

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.
