Avis Budget Group Inc. has reported its first quarter 2014 revenue of $1.9 billion, a 10% increase compared to first quarter in 2013. This is primarily due to a 6% increase in rental days and the acquisitions of Payless and Zipcar, says the company.
Excluding certain items, Adjusted EBITDA increased 26% to $117 million — mainly due to higher rental volumes and increased year-over-year pricing in North America. And Avis Budget reported net income of $18 million and GAAP net income of $4 million, according to the company.
For the first quarter 2014, Zipcar contributed about $68 million in revenue and $5 million to Adjusted EBITDA, while Payless contributed $30 million to revenue and $6 million to Adjusted EBITDA, says Avis.
"Our strong first quarter results were driven by volume growth and increases in both leisure and commercial pricing in North America," said Ronald L. Nelson, Avis Budget Group chairman and chief executive officer. "Our continued focus on growing in more profitable customer segments and channels continues to pay benefits; we completed two tuck-in acquisitions during the quarter that expand our global footprint; our acquisitions of Avis Europe, Zipcar, Apex and Payless all contributed to our improvement in earnings; and we returned $75 million in cash to shareholders through share repurchases."
For its full-year 2014 revenue, Avis expects to generate worldwide revenue of approximately $8.4 billion to $8.6 billion, a 6% to 8% increase compared to 2013.

While brand damage is too often guided by fickle retail perception, fleet buyers and sellers — those who have been around the block in the industry — have a more tempered view of potential impacts.
Analyzing recall data gets us closer to an answer.
Before jumping in, fleets considering alternative fuels or power must define their use cases and tailor them to the solution more than ever before.

6. Molecular oxygen ions confirm exosphere at Saturn's moon Dione
The Cassini spacecraft flew by Dione, one of Saturn's icy moons, on 7 April 2010. During that flyby, instruments detected molecular oxygen ions around the moon. Tokar et al. used those measurements to estimate the density of the molecular oxygen ions to be in the range of 0.01 to 0.09 ions per cubic centimeter (or ions per 0.06 cubic inches). These molecular oxygen ions are produced when neutral molecules are ionized; the measurements confirm that a neutral exosphere surrounds Dione.

'Community' - 'Communication Studies' Recap
by Jason Hughes, posted Feb 12th 2010 8:34AM
(S01E16) Suddenly I want to spend at least 40 more minutes in the world of 'Community' after tonight's episode. I wonder if those 40 minutes will come back to haunt our dear friend later?
Jeff and Abed tore it up with one of the most bizarre drunk montages I've ever seen, culminating with Abed in the absolute best "aftermath" position I've ever seen. And Jeff did it all to try and make things right with Britta again. Try as they might, those two just can't seem to get their awkward feelings for one another to stop interfering with their relationship as "just-friends."
With the Valentine's Day dance looming, Troy and Pierce tried to regain some of their own dignity early in the episode, only to lose it completely by the end of it. Surprisingly, despite his "skills" on the dance floor, Chang either has no dignity to lose, or has so much that it's impervious to anything he does.

New safeguards introduced to protect electricity and gas consumers
A new mandatory Marketing Code of Practice to guard against mis-selling to Northern Ireland's electricity and gas consumers has been introduced by the Utility Regulator in consultation with a range of stakeholders, particularly the Consumer Council.
All gas and electricity suppliers in Northern Ireland now have to adhere to the Code and failure to comply will be a licence breach which may be subject to enforcement action, including the possibility of financial penalties.
Utility Regulator Chief Executive, Jenny Pyper, said:
"The introduction of the Marketing Code of Practice represents a comprehensive step forward to protect Northern Ireland's electricity and gas consumers. It is a key part of the UR strategy to improve competition whilst protecting consumers' interests. As more suppliers enter the market, this Code will help ensure NI consumers are protected from many of the problems seen in other energy markets. Specifically it will protect gas and electricity customers, in particular vulnerable customers, from inappropriate marketing practices. This will ensure that they can make an informed, un-pressurised decision on whether or not to change their energy supplier."
At an overall level the Code should:
• protect consumers against unwanted, unfair or misleading marketing methods;
• ensure that an electricity or gas supplier adopts best practice when marketing its products and services;
• ensure that electricity and gas suppliers take all reasonable steps to make sure their marketing material is accurate and clearly specifies the product being marketed;
• ensure that the appropriate training is provided on the Code, to their staff (including agents/third parties) if they are carrying out marketing activities on behalf of the supplier;
• ensure that suppliers make all reasonable efforts that employees or agents do not misrepresent the firm or portray products of rival suppliers in a negative way;
• make it mandatory that suppliers provide the option for customers (current or future) to opt out of future marketing activities; and
• help ensure that sales agents do not misrepresent the savings that customers can make by switching. It will be incumbent upon any sales agent or representative of the company to demonstrate how any individual customer will save money when switching to that company.
Aodhan O'Donnell, Interim Chief Executive of the Consumer Council said:
"The introduction of a Marketing Code of Practice is a great step forward for consumers and energy companies as it will help control how suppliers behave when they go about trying to gain new customers. Consumers in Northern Ireland can now have more confidence that they have additional protection from unfair or misleading sales practices and that information on energy products and tariffs should be clear, easy to understand and not give misleading information about other suppliers. We hope the new Code will help to encourage more consumers to switch to a new supplier and potentially save money and receive a better service. As more customers switch this will help keep prices down and levels of service up.
"The Consumer Council has information and step by step guides for consumers on switching, as well as the new Marketing Code of Practice, on our website at www.consumercouncil.org.uk. We also handle consumer and businesses' complaints in relation to energy suppliers such as switching, billing or inappropriate sales practices. Consumers can contact us on 0800 121 6022 at email@example.com or via facebook or twitter."News Source : New safeguards introduced to protect electricity and gas consumers

" We enjoyed our stay in your lovely house. Being here with another family of four we've appreciated the large open spaces and curious nooks and crannies." Abbot and Schultz family. Frankfurt, August 2009
" We had a wonderful time. The smell of baking pine trees, rosemary, thyme, juniper berries, mint and sage. The wonderful cooling winds, delicious refreshing swims and above all the amazing precious peace" T Littlewood Somerset
" The house has been a very restful haven away from the stress of London. After our stay we feel energised and rested - just the right amount of seclusion, but with easy striking distance of some good sightseeing, great beaches and lovely meals out" G Kerr London
" We had a wonderful week here, the swimming was great and the trout huge. We took the Cathar trail and could not believe where people built Castles, truly amazing. Thank you for allowing others to share this wonderful gite." Max and James, Melbourne
" We had a fun week here! It's 46c !! Have enjoyed swimming in the river and catching fish. Visited lots of Castles, went climbing and have eaten loads. We loved Lagrasse, the winding cobbled streets are perfect for exploring. Overall a great place to stay. Many thanks. The Gadd Family, Epsom
" Just to say thanks for letting us stay at your house - we had a lovely time. Your house is a delight." R Tietchman. "
" Thank you very much for your cooperation prior and during our stay, it was a lovely holiday and we hope we can use your services sometime in the future as well. Iva (July 2014) "
" I just wanted to let you know that we have had a lovely time in LAGR101 and were delighted with the house. It has all the character I was hoping for and lots of warmth and quirky touches in its furnishings that made it feel a family home. I especially loved all the various places there were to sit and relax. The double bedroom upstairs was truly perfect; comfortable, pretty, and with the windows open, you can hear the river babbling all night. When you wake up you see the chapel and the trees. Adorable! Many thanks, Ruth (August 2014). "

If there are any comments I would make they are that it would benefit from an upgrade to the fridge, the oven and the towels. Otherwise absolutely wonderful. Many thanks, Ruth "
" "The property description and photos are accurate and the house was even better than expected. It is an appropriate price for the property. It was very cozy, well-equipped. It was very clean on arrival. We liked the guest book and all the advice given in it, plus the box with tourist information was very helpful. Booking procedure was very good, helpful and flexible. In general, very nice property, well maintained and equipped. " "
" I wanted to thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful house! We had such a wonderful week there and particularly loved spending time in the kitchen/dining area. With the children tucked away upstairs, it was nice to have a place where the adults could enjoy the evening. The garden was great and the BBQ well used. Suzi (Aug 2014) "
