GSA's City Pair Airline Contracts Expected to Save the Government Over $2B in FY03
August 8, 2002
Contact: Deborah K. Ruiz, (202) 501-1231
WASHINGTON - In a move expected to save the federal government billions of dollars in the next fiscal year, the U.S. General Services Administration today announced the winners of its City Pair airline contracts, providing heavily discounted airfares for over 4,900 routes.
GSA recently negotiated rates with 14 U.S. airlines for official federal government travelers on 4,359 domestic and 638 international routes. In addition, the City Pair contracts will continue to make hassle-free tickets available to Federal travelers at 72% less than unrestricted coach fares offered to the general public. "For fiscal year 2003, these contracts are expected to save the government more than $2 billion," said Donna Bennett, Commissioner of GSA's Federal Supply Service.
Each year, GSA's Federal Supply Service awards contracts for air transportation services for official government travel under the City Pair program. The contracts are competitively awarded, based on the best overall value to the Government. Average flight time, offered price, type of service, flight distribution, and numbers of flights are all considered in determining the best value.
This year the dual fare test (capacity controlled and unrestricted) was expanded to include considerably more markets than last year. Capacity controlled fares will be available on a first-come, first-served basis that will allow government travelers to save additional dollars when they book tickets early. In addition, unrestricted contract fares will continue to be available to the government in all markets.
GSA's City Pair Program continues to give federal travelers' several other advantages over commercial restricted coach fares. Some of the biggest advantages are fully refundable tickets, no charge for cancellations or for schedule changes, and no change in the unrestricted fare price throughout the length of the contract, enabling agencies to better plan their travel budgets.
The contract awards and prices are effective October 1, 2002 through September 30, 2003.
Under the City Pair Program, two contract rates are awarded, an unrestricted fare and a capacity controlled fare. For example:
New York LaGuardia/Reagan Washington National $ 34 not offered
Honolulu/San Diego $290 not offered
Atlanta/Baltimore $128 $ 98
Providence/Reagan Washington National $299 $229
Colorado Springs/Los Angeles $164 $144
Discounts are generally greater in larger markets.
In the evaluation criteria this year, considerable weight was given to customers' strong preference for non-stop service. Non-stop service was awarded in 1,732 markets.
Awards were made to the following airlines:
Carrier City Pair Estimated $ Value
Delta Air Lines 1,199 $ 257,109,162
American Airlines 1,130 $ 252,865,631
United Air Lines 765 $ 170,152,530
US Airways 576 $ 155,567,442
Northwest Airlines 418 $ 74,580,789
Southwest Airlines 324 $ 41,732,906
Alaska Airlines 110 $ 34,772,700
Continental Airlines 145 $ 32,627,546
America West Airlines 175 $ 22,730,687
Hawaiian Airlines 14 $ 11,256,430
Midwest Express Airlines 50 $ 11,232,073
Air Tran Airways 39 $ 5,616,192
Frontier Airlines 12 $ 4,630,041
American Trans Air 40 $ 2,303,685
GSA is a centralized federal procurement and property agency responsible for providing office space, supplies and services for the federal government. Since its creation in 1949, the agency has evolved from a mandatory supplier of space and products for Federal civilian agencies to a non-mandatory provider of competitively priced, high-quality office space, commercial products and services, and military and civilian workforce solutions.

Cynthia Smith with a couple of pieces painted by her mother, the late Barbara Doucette, one of the artists whose work will be on display at the local branch of the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia as part of the Yarmouth Art Society's life members show.
By Eric Bourque
For the next three months – officially starting Nov. 24 – the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia in Yarmouth will play host to an exhibit featuring works by life members of the Yarmouth Art Society.
An opening reception for the show is scheduled for this Saturday from 2 to 4 p.m. and the exhibit is scheduled to run until Feb. 17.
Visitors to the gallery during this time period will get to view paintings by Lois Allen, Alva Bain, Margaret Chipman, Barbara Doucette, Hugh Eamon, Alex Gigeroff, Louise Mullen, Ruth Rideout and Thaya Whitten.
"These are all people who have contributed significantly to the art society," said Virginia Stoddard, president of the Yarmouth Art Society.
The show probably will consist of 35 to 40 paintings altogether, she said.
"Some are big paintings, some are little," she said. "Depending on the space and how things look, there will be an average of (about) four paintings per artist."
This is the first exhibit for the art society to focus exclusively in this way on the society's life members.
"We've had group shows," Stoddard said, "but never a show that honours the nine people who are life members."
Cynthia Smith – whose mother, the late Barbara Doucette, is one of those whose work will be part of the exhibit – says she is proud her mom's paintings will be on display.
"I think it's quite an honour," Smith said. "I wish she was still around."
Smith says her mother, who died in 2010 at 90 years of age, painted for many years and had other interests in the area of arts and crafts, including sewing, knitting and rug-hooking.
"She was always doing something (creative)," Smith said.
As for the art society's life members show, Stoddard says Saturday's opening reception will be a chance for members of the public to meet some of the people behind the artwork.
"Some of the artists, of course, have passed on, but, of the living artists, I think they're all going to be here," she said.

Thanks for the tip, I had to do this is a previous version but had forgotten what I did.
Zydas 1211 chipset with zd1211 driver throws a 'SIOCSIFFLAGS : No such file or directory' error in ifconfig <interface> up.
Or an error similar to this in dmesg:
usb 1-1: Could not load firmware file zd1211/zd1211b_ub. Error number -2
zd1211rw 1-1:1.0: couldn't load firmware. Error number -2.
This, according to aircrack-ng wiki, means that firmware is missing.
You should download it from here and put the folder named zd1211 in your /lib/firmware/zd1211 and/or /lib/firmware/<kernel version from uname -r>/zd1211.
This should fix the issue.
Thanks for the tip, I had to do this is a previous version but had forgotten what I did.
I remember this one, It was from BackTrack 4 Final. I didn't think it would be back in BT5 will good to know b/c i have the card that uses this driver. So Thanks.
Reading is the first step to education, critical thinking is a whole 'nother matter
i already download firmware zd1211 but i don't know how to install it!!!
I am newbie in BT5 please help me, thanks
You should just download the deb file which can be found here. http://packages.debian.org/lenny/all...mware/download
Once you download the zd1211-firmware_126.96.36.199-0.1_all.deb, thats the one I got just do the deb install command which should be easy.
You will have to cd over to where you placed the file. That is what worked for me.. For some reason I have trouble sometimes with the compressed file. but for the most part it should be simple install. If you do want to use the compressed the zd1211-firmware-1.4.tar then you will have to use this command.Code:root@bt:~# dpkg -i zd1211-firmware_188.8.131.52-0.1_all.deb
And cd over into the file which zd1211-firmware folder. Once you cd over you will install with these commands.Code:root@bt:~#tar -xvwf zd1211-firmware-1.4.tar
That is the command that the read me file say's to use. Not in so much detail but as for newbie's like you and me I think we should stick with the deb file. if you need help just go to youtube and search for me, I am curemymind. I will make a video of this soon. Like on thursday.... Im going to the beach on the 18th...Code:cp zd1211_* /lib/firmware/zd1211
The DEB file is the easiest to understand. Best of luck.
Or you cand install syanptic pakage manager
Then add the keysCode:root@bt:~# apt-get install synaptic
Code:root@bt:~# aptitude install debian-keyring debian-archive-keyringCode:root@bt:~# gpg --recv-keys 4D270D06F42584E6Code:root@bt:~ gpg --export 4D270D06F42584E6 | apt-key add -Open up the "Software Sources" wich should now be in your "Dragon Start ICON" then "System" and click on the "Software Sources". In that Gui navigate your self to "Other Software" tab and click on add. And in that "APT Line:" you will add this.Code:root@bt:~# apt-key add .gnupg/pubring.gpg
From that website. http://packages.debian.org/lenny/all...mware/downloadCode:deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian lenny main non-free
Once you add it you will click close and it should add. Now just close the "Software Sources" and it should try to update. Let it update.
Now you can open up synaptic and try to find zd1211-firmware but I will just give you the command.
let it install and there you have it . That is how I did it and it worked for me, now my zd1211 chip usb wifi card is working without a problem.Code:root@bt:~# apt-get install zd1211-firmware

Hi, i had exactly the same problem, managed to get wifi going yesterday, then had to reinstall and tried everything i tried yesterday and my wifi wouldn't work, found the answer though
I have LM technologies LM001 usb wifi adapter and need to set up a Zd1211 driver
Go here and download Download zd1211-firmware-1.4.tar.bz2 (39.1 KB) to your ROOT directory
unpack using
tar xvjf zd1211-firmware-1.4.tar.bz2
You should see a folder named 'zd1211-firmware'
change the name of the folder to 'zd1211
move the folder to /lib/firmware
check you network connections and you should be picking up wifi
then just run through
to make sure it's all ok.
hope this helps
I had same problem i just copied the folder from backtrack 4 and put in backtrack 5.
im sure an overlook on the development, and one i am sure will be sorted on next release. Its a pain when using live boot lol.
Fixed in linux-firmware-2.0-bt4
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
please report back if you still have issues with this.
The best information security training, period.
I had the same problem, apt-get upgrade fixed it.
Using a live CD, the easyest seems to download linux-firmware-2.0-bt4 image on the CD ?
Where can I find it ?

Jonny May is available for England's RBS 6 Nations clash with Scotland on Saturday despite breaking his nose against France.
May lasted only eight minutes of the 26-24 defeat in Paris, forcing an early reshuffle of England's backline.
The Gloucester wing, who has two caps, saw a specialist on Monday afternoon and was passed fit for the Calcutta Cup showdown at Murrayfield.
"Following a scan review and a specialist assessment which confirmed an undisplaced fracture of his nose, Jonny will be available for selection," a statement released by the Rugby Football Union said.

Best Of :: Shopping & Services
The Carrollton location may have come first, but now that owner Nick Ley spends the lion's share of his inking time at the Oak Cliff location, the Bishop Arts studio is the one that comes to mind when thinking of Saints and Sinners. And even if it is the newer of the two locations, you'd swear it's been there since Sailor Jerry was in business — the place feels as comfortable in the old storefront as the vintage clothing and yuppie art stores in the district. Ley's work is outstanding, as those willing to wait months for his work will attest, whether it's an elaborate, brightly colored chest piece, a tiny stippled black-and-white memento or a cover-up job. If you can't wait that long, check with any of the other artists there, who are friendly and helpful the moment you walk in — a relief from the eager salesmanship or prickly indifference you can get when browsing through flash books and photos of previous clients at other shops.
A well-run boutique needs a welcoming atmosphere, trendy clothes and pristine changing rooms. Oh, and booze. Rio Ritz has all of this in spades. Earlier this year, Thais Moses took her online shop and moved into an old house in Uptown. You'd be hard-pressed to find something with a price tag upward of $50 in her well-curated shop. It's a one-stop shop for an outfit or a sparkly accessory for a night out. When you walk through the doors, you're greeted with a friendly smile from the shop girls and a freshly poured mimosa. Even the most apprehensive shopper is bound to enjoy the experience of spending a minute perusing the racks in this quaint, stress-free setting. No shopping mall required.
At first glance Ross at Peak Thrift Store looks like the kind of place that is too dusty and cluttered to even bother with, especially for those of us who aren't "extreme thrifters." The space is a little stuffy and unorganized, but there are plenty of treasures hiding behind those piles of old magazines. It's true that most of the furniture here is fixer-upper material, but isn't that why you have all those damn DIY boards on Pinterest in the first place? You may want to take an allergy pill before you go, but all those bargains will be worth it.
We were heartbroken when Christine Visneau announced she'd be closing her Little Bean children's shop a few years back. And even though the shop was sold at the last minute and quickly reopened, Visneau's line of chic home-sewn children's clothing was no more. We really missed buying those vintage-inspired, beautifully constructed girl's dresses and infant rompers — and we also missed the compliments they garnered when worn by our kids or given at baby showers. But after a two-year hiatus, Visneau's seamstress days are back ... and this time, she's made togs for grown-ups, too. We love the easy lines and comfy fabrics she uses to construct on-trend tops, dresses and caftans in her East Dallas home. Her day job as a fashion stylist makes her one hell of an accessorizer, too, and Vee Caravan's online-only shop is stocked with eye-catching jewelry and other adornments. And much to our delight, the baby garments have returned as well — making this Dallas-based corner of the Internet a true one-stop shop.
There was a time when this little store off Henderson Avenue was Dallas fashion's best-kept secret. You could pop in and buy something cuter and cheaper than Urban Outfitters or TopShop and none of your friends would already own it. Now the secret's out. The clothes are still cute, but you might have to fight your way through SMU students and trendy moms. But it's still worth the trip, because if you're looking for a colorful kimono, a black jumpsuit or whatever the latest trend might be, they'll probably have it. And if you're lucky, it will be in your size.
"A lot of Highland Park moms," the clerk behind the counter at Gemma Collection replied when we asked who shopped at the University Park store. That's not a bad clientele to have when you're selling reasonably priced jewelry. The pieces in Gemma's large assortment of necklaces, bracelets, earrings, etc., are affordable – ranging from around $50 to less than $200 mostly – but they don't look cheap. (If your customers live in the Bubble, even the low-priced stuff had better be tasteful.) Gemma features several local designers – Chandler Nixon, Taylor Custer and Holly Zaves Designs, among others – so there are pieces to fit a range of tastes, from polished stone to dainty monogrammed items and religious icons.

Do not even consider committing the solecism of serving it with parmigiano.
I would I saw her once more, but to explain to her the solecism of which her inexperience hath rendered her guilty.
Le jument est beau was a solecism that could not longer be tolerated.
The pedantry of geometrically straight lines is not only no idealism, it is a solecism in Nature.
His trust was warranted, until Landor detected the solecism.
Speak their convictions that Louis is a Prisoner of War; and cannot be put to death without injustice, solecism, peril?
The solecism, if such it be, was repeated in Marino Faliero, act iii.
Barbarism and solecism: for will it convince or convict any man to blow half an ounce of lead through the head of him?
And if you caught him committing a solecism, would you stand it?
I admit the commonness of the expression, but it is not the less a solecism.
"gross grammatical error;" loosely "any absurdity or incongruity," 1570s, from Middle French solécisme (16c.), from Latin soloecismus "mistake in speaking or writing," from Greek soloikismos "to speak (Greek) incorrectly," from soloikos "ungrammatical utterance," properly "a speaking like the people of Soloi," an Athenian colony in Cilicia (modern Mezitli in Turkey), whose dialect the Athenians considered barbarous.

I am designing a hardware bridge that will allow ODB-II standard devices to send data to XBMC. I would like to know what is the least processor intensive method for XBMC to accept and optionally show this data. ODB in my car is roughly 1.1 seconds refresh. I would like to achieve this, or very close performance in the host system.
This project (minus the hardware part) is going to be open source once I have the plans done. If you can help or are just interested in general, you can post here or email me at [email protected]

Italy can be both the best and most frustrating team in the world to watch. They're capable of scoring goals, and being a defensive rock, and they're always a top contender to win. At times they lose irrational, cheat or play poorly, but they're still a highly respectable team. Mario Balotelli is their young, most exciting player, and with him in the team they can achieve anything, of a good or bad nature. It's still Alessandro Del Piero who graces the back of their jerseys, and the Italians are in desperate need to replace the talented forward, but perhaps Balotelli can do just that, especially if he can remove his attitude problems, that sometimes hold him back.

iHeartRadio Country Performer Eric Church calls being onstage a 'release'
Listen to Eric Church on iHeartRadio
Eric Church is one of the performers on the bill for the inaugural iHeartRadio Country Festival in Austin, Texas in March - and he's someone who thrives on live performance.
He tells iHeartRadio, "It started at such a small place. Every night when I go out there, I don't take that for granted. I remember when there were 20 people in a place... those 20 people were screaming like there were 10,000 there and they were singing. When I look out there now, the coolest thing for me is to be able to see those 20 people still in that crowd, and there are 10,000. That will get you goin' as an artist and as a performer."
He adds, "For me it's a release... that's my time. Just like it's the fans' time. They're there to cut loose, so am I. We do it together."
Country's biggest superstars will share the stage at Austin's Frank Erwin Center. In addition to Church the lineup includes Luke Bryan, Jason Aldean, Florida Georgia Line, Lady Antebellum, Hunter Hayes, Carrie Underwood, Jake Owen and Dan + Shay.
Bobby Bones will host the inaugural iHeartRadio Country Festival, and fans will have the opportunity to win tickets on Clear Channel stations across the country starting Monday, January 13th. The festival will also be broadcast live on Clear Channel country stations. Tickets go on sale to the general public on January 18, at 12 p.m. EST.

When my son was born, he did not have the full finger nails on both of his index fingers. Will these grow in? Is it something I did while pregnant that caused this? I tried to eat healthy but I was so sick while pregnant with him. There was little I could keep down until I was almost 6 months along.

Dear JeeniferA,
Congratulations on your son.
This is very unlikely to be caused by something you did not eat/ did eat in pregnancy. Please do not worry/ feel guilty about that.
Some babies are born with short nails which then grow over the first year of life. This does not cause any problems and is normal for these babies. Is it just that your son has very short finger nails on his index fingers rather than no nails?
Best wishes,

Apple Forced to Pay Samsung's Legal Fees in UK Court Order

The UK court made this call after Apple posted an inaccurate notice on its UK website
After posting a snarky notice on its UK website, Apple was ordered to pay a majority of Samsung's legal fees.
Last month, a UK court ruling ordered Apple to
post a notice
to Samsung on its website, saying that the South Korean electronics maker didn't steal the designs of the iPad after all. Apple obeyed the order, but with a snarky tone that made sure to highlight a few facts in Apple's favor.
The UK court found that this notice was "false and misleading," and ordered Apple to take it down at once. Apple was
told to rewrite the apology
to Samsung, and it posted a notice on its website saying that its former "apology" was inaccurate. The new apology even
appeared in UK newspapers
However, a rewrite was not enough. The Court of Appeal of England and Wales has further ordered Apple to pay the legal fees of Samsung on an indemnity basis. The exact amount that Apple must pay is unclear, but reports are saying Apple will pay a majority of the fees.
The Apple-Samsung patent war began in April 2011 when Apple claimed Samsung was an
"iPhone, iPad copycat."
Apple worked pretty hard to ban Samsung's smartphones and tablets around the world, and successfully accomplished this in countries like Germany and Australia. Samsung launched a few lawsuits of its own regarding
3G patents
, and was also able to lift the ban on its Galaxy Tab 10.1 in Australia in December 2011. However, Samsung
wasn't so lucky in Germany
, where the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is still banned.
Back in August, a jury in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California reached an unfavorable verdict for Samsung, saying that the South Korean electronics maker was
guilty of violating technology patents
. In other words, most of Samsung's smartphones and tablets in question were found guilt of copying Apple's iPhone and iPad designs. It was ordered to pay $1.05 billion in damages to Apple.
Samsung suffered further losses in the U.S. when an ITC judge ruled that
Samsung violated four Apple patents
, including the flat front face with wider borders at the top and bottom, the lozenge-shaped speaker about the display screen; the translucent images for applications displayed on the screen, and the device's ability to detect when a headset is plugged in.

All along, the Chiefland High baseball team had a handle on visiting Fort White last Thursday night, March 13.
But when starting pitcher Jeremy Hayes got a bit wild and the visitors chiseled the lead down to two runs, coach Kyle Parnell had to go to his ace in the hole –Ory Pitts.
Pitts pitched four innings of hitless relief and the Indians went on to post a 13-3 victory over Fort White.
Chiefland improved to 8-1 overall and 6-0 in district play. Fort White fell to 5-4 and 3-3.

Pentagon: Bergdahl May Return to Duty Today
(NEWSER) – After weeks of counseling, Bowe Bergdahl is set to return to active duty—and he could do so as soon as today, Defense Department officials said last night, per theNew York Times and CNN. He'll live in barracks at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio, where his therapy occurred. Two soldiers will work to help Bergdahl reacquaint himself with military life after his time as a Taliban prisoner. Also on Bergdahl's schedule is a meeting with Maj. Gen. Kenneth Dahl, who's looking into his 2009 disappearance in Afghanistan, the Times notes.

Fall is here and even though I kept going on and on about how I love Summer, something is also magical about the beauty of Fall season. The leaves are turning from green to yellow or bright red, it is amazing. The weather has turn cold earlier in California this year and we also have a lot of rain, all this makes me long for a cozy couch in front of fireplace with a slice of brownie and a cup of milk (someday...)
I just came back from a week trip in Louisiana, to visit M's family. It was quite a relaxing week, that I almost felt unproductive, but it was nice and enjoyable. We definitely got plenty of sleep for sure! I experienced an interesting Thanksgiving tradition in South. Apparently, it is very common to have the Thanksgiving feast in between lunch and dinner, we had ours at 3pm and football game is on all day long. Here in California, I am so used to having a feast during dinner time, so it was interesting to see something different.
Now that I am back, I have to get ready for my next trip. My company is sending me to China for a work assignment ASAP. I will be there for a few months and during that time, I won't be able to bake or post anything. I am trying to go through my back log of posts before I leave, but it will literally be an adventure in China as I don't speak Chinese (despite being one) and they don't speak English. Nice. I guess we will see if I will survive
Every year, I would make a list of what I would like to make when Summer time comes, and they all involved some kind of berries. In reality, when Summer does come, all of a sudden I will have so many plans, travel, birthdays, weddings, BBQ, trying to fit all of them before the warm weather is gone. This is why most of the summer dessert I make might be a little "late" in the season.
Seeing the different berries I had, I wanted to showcase them in some form and I immediately thought of this tart I've always wanted to make since last year after seeing this gorgeous post by Adam. He is quite an interesting guy and I enjoy reading his pastry review, if only those pastries are within reach... oh well. His review on Sadaharu Aoki's take on fruit tart exceeds other reviews of the same kind. Alan of the travellingfoodies also made a beautiful rendition of the tart a while back, which made me more eager to replicate it. The components are:
- Pate sucree
- Pistachio creme frangipane
- Vanilla bean creme patisserie
- Assorted berries and a macaron

Amtrak Revenue Passenger-Miles and Load Factor
Amtrak Revenue Passenger-Miles and Load Factor
Excel | CSV | Table Version
Revenue Passenger-Miles (monthly data, not seasonally adjusted)
Load Factor (monthly data, not seasonally adjusted)
The National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) officially began service in May 1971. Amtrak serves more than 500 stations in 46 states and operates over a network of more than 21,000 route miles. Ridership is highly seasonal, with July and August being the highest volume months. In 2000, Amtrak introduced high-speed rail service in the northeast U.S., which helped increase ridership.
Load factor measures usage by capacity. It is calculated by dividing passenger-miles (the aggregation of trip lengths for individual passengers) by seat-miles (the sum of the products of total seats available and total miles traveled for individual trains). Data is available beginning in January 2003.
|Amtrak Revenue Passenger-Miles and Load Factor
|Amtrak revenue passenger-miles (millions)
|Percent change from same month previous year
|Passenger load factor (percent)
|Difference from same month previous year*
* Current month minus same month previous year. This is generally used in the case of bound numbers, such as proportions that cannot exceed 100%.
NOTE: The current value is compared to the value from the same period in the previous year to account for seasonality.

Miley Cyrus Cover Shoot
Throughout the year, dealers, design junkies, and designers gather at numerous furniture fairs at cities across the globe, but the fair still considered the Catwalk for Furniture, the one that determines the shapes and colors you'll see slowly trickling into decorating schemes, is the Salone Internazionale del Mobile held in Milan each Spring. Julie Taraska, a design writer, was there and trawled the trends for us. Meanwhile, here in New York, we did some local sourcing at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) which is gaining ground as a serious home for ahead-of-the-curve design. Some of these pieces are prototypes, here for the curiosity factor, but others go into production in the Fall. Much the way the perfect boot or belt can bring your wardrobe back to life, just one of these sofas, chairs, or lights could reinvent your living space.
One of the buzziest debuts was Skitsch: Both the brand and the flagship store—600 square meters in the heart of Milan—opened during Milan Design Week. The creative director Cristina Morozzi, wife of Edra's owner, hired a household worth of design talent to create new products, like this wooden floor lamp by the Brazillian Campana brothers...

THOMASVILLE, Ga., May 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Flowers Foods, Inc. (NYSE: FLO), the second-largest producer and marketer of fresh packaged bakery foods in the United States, today reported results for its 16-week first quarter endedApril 20, 2013. Sales increased 25.9% to $1.13 billion.
Diluted EPS, excluding certain benefit/costs, was $0.46, up 64.3% from last year's first quarter. The company recorded a benefit of $0.37 per diluted share related to a bargain purchase accounting gain on the Sara Lee/California acquisition and acquisition-related costs of $0.02 per diluted share. Including the benefit and costs, diluted EPS was $0.81. Other highlights for the quarter include:
» Volume increased 19.3%, acquisitions contributed 7.7%, and net price/mix was unfavorable 1.1%, driven by a change in product mix;
» Gross margin was 48.2%, compared to 46.7% for the first quarter of fiscal 2012;
» EBITDA margin, excluding the benefit/costs, was 12.3% for the quarter;
» Operating margin (EBIT), excluding the benefit/costs, was 9.2%;
» Generated $86.8 million in cash flow from operations;
» In January, announced an agreement to acquire certain Hostess bread assets. The agreement was approved by the bankruptcy court in March and is currently under regulatory review;
» In February, completed acquisition of the Sara Lee and Earthgrains brands for sliced breads, buns, and rolls in the state of California from BBU, Inc. The new business is being rolled out in stages through early summer;
» Announced the election by the board of directors of Allen L. Shiver, current president of Flowers Foods, as chief executive officer and George E. Deese, current chairman of the board and chief executive officer, as executive chairman, effective May 22, 2013 at the annual shareholders meeting;
» In April, entered into a new term loan with a commitment of up to $300.0 million and amended existing $500.0 million senior unsecured credit facility and existing term loan to reflect more favorable terms in anticipation of funding for acquisitions and other needs.
Commenting on first quarter results, Chairman and CEO George Deese said, "We believe the results we reported today reflect the best performance in the company's history. We achieved substantial sales increases in both segments, across all channels, and in our primary product categories. We also delivered outstanding earnings. Throughout our company, team members performed incredibly well as they worked to serve customers' needs following Hostess' departure from the market last fall. Our investments in our bakeries and our distribution systems over several decades, combined with the strength and determination of our team, allowed us to take on new business and meet the needs of existing and new customers.
"This is an exciting time for Flowers Foods as we focus on integrating Lepage Bakeries in the Northeast and Sara Lee inCalifornia, while maintaining the gains we have achieved in markets throughout the country in recent months," Deese continued. "Looking ahead, we expect to have growth opportunities in our newer markets as customers and consumers gain confidence in Nature's Own, Tastykake, and our other strong brands."

text: Ok fellas. Here it is. Finally i found the solution to my problem. Hope it helps the others as well stuck in some similar kinda situation. Everything was perfectly done.. except for the burning part. I used Nero to burn the image, and burn was successful as well. But what i failed to realize was that although Nero burnt the image properly but it was actually not able to recognize the image format. So I downloaded Power ISO, a free ware, and used it to burn the image on a new DVD.... aaanddd voila... it was done. And this time when i tried rebooting my system with this newly burnt Live DVD, it ran pretty well. :B
