IATA boosts forecast: Stronger demand and steady fuel costs to pull airlines back into the black
The world's airlines have seen a remarkable switch in fortunes in the past three months, as global air traffic demand recovers more strongly than expected. IATA has revised its outlook for the airline industry from a loss of USD2.8 billion (predicted in Mar-2010) to a profit of USD2.5 billion. It all comes down to a boost to the passenger and cargo demand projections, now +7.1% for passenger (previously +5.6%) and +18.5% for cargo (previously +12.0%), better yields (thanks to good capacity management) and no change to the oil price forecast (of USD79 per barrel).
Industry revenues are forecast to be USD545 billion in 2010, up USD23 billion (or 4.4%) from the previous forecast and some 12.8% above the USD483 billion generated in 2009. However, industry revenues are still below pre-crisis levels. The industry reported revenues of USD564 billion in 2008.
IATA's Director General and CEO, Giovanni Bisignani, stated, "the global economy is recovering from the depths of the financial crisis much more quickly than could have been anticipated. Airlines are benefiting from a strong traffic rebound that is pushing the industry into the black. We thought that it would take at least three years to recover the USD81 billion (14.3%) drop in revenues in 2009. But the USD62 billion top line improvement this year puts us about 75% on the way to pre-crisis levels".
But Mr Bisignani added the revised outlook comes with some "important health warnings", noting it represents a net margin of just 0.5%, "which is a long way from sustainable profitability". "Second, a major part of the global industry is still posting big losses. A stagnating economy, strikes, natural disasters, and a currency crisis have left European carriers struggling with an anticipated USD2.8 billion loss," said Bisignani.

"Significant improvement" in yields – no structural change for premium travel
Yields are now forecast to grow by 4.5% for both the cargo and passenger business. This is a "significant improvement" from the previously forecast yield growth of 2.0% in passenger markets and 3.1% for cargo, according to IATA, "but the rate is just ahead of consumer price inflation".
Encouragingly for the full service airline business model, IATA declared that premium demand now appears to be recovering cyclically in many regions, alongside improvements in global trade, putting to rest earlier fears that the financial crisis would result in a structural change to the premium market.
Premium travel was rebounding at an annualised growth rate of 20% over the first quarter and economy travel is now back to pre-recession levels. IATA observed, "in the absence of a strong improvement in consumer confidence that would be needed to drive leisure traffic growth, it would appear that business travel also supported some of the recovery in the economy cabin".
New capacity will be added to the global system as a result of the 1,340 aircraft that are scheduled to join the fleet in 2010. Of these, approximately 500 are replacement aircraft while the rest will be new capacity. Latent capacity is also present as a result of reduced long-haul fleet utilisation which remains several percentage points below pre-crisis levels. Over the year, IATA expect's an average demand improvement of 10.2% (passenger and cargo) to be met with a 5.4% increase in capacity. "This will support load factors which remained near record levels for most of the first quarter", stated the industry body.
Regional differences: Europe still in the red
IATA stated the recovery has been "asymmetrical", with worsening conditions in Europe in sharp contrast to improvements in all other regions.

The following are IATA's thumbnail outlooks for the regions:
IATA Comment/Outlook
Carriers continue to benefit from strong regional growth. Against a global GDP growth expectation of 2.9%, the Asian economy (excluding Japan) is expected to grow by 7% this year. China will outpace that with an expected 9.9% GDP expansion. As a result, the region's carriers are expected to deliver the largest profit at $2.2 billion. This is more than double the previously forecast $900 million in March and a major reversal from the $2.7 billion loss in 2009.
Carriers are expected to return a profit of $1.9 billion. This is a major reversal from the previously forecast $1.8 billion loss, and the $2.7 billion that the region's carriers lost in 2009. The US economy is growing with a 3.3% GDP expansion. Carriers are improving efficiencies as a result of demand growth, capacity cuts and domestic mergers.
Carriers will show a profit of $900 million, up slightly from the $800 million previously forecast. Having posted a $500 million profit in 2009, Latin America will be the only region to post two consecutive years of profit. The region's commodities are closely linked with Asian growth and supported by a 3.9% GDP expansion this year.
Carriers are expected to post a profit of $100 million—their first since 2005. This is significantly better than the previously forecast $400 million loss and the $600 million that the region's carriers lost in 2009. GDP growth of 4.3% is outstripping the global average and Gulf carriers continue to gain market share through their hubs for Europe to Asia-Pacific traffic even as capacity is being added at a more cautious rate.
Carriers are expected to post a $100 million profit, their first since 2002. This reverses the $100 million loss previously forecast in March and the $100 million that the region lost in 2009.
Europe will be the only region in the red with a $2.8 billion loss. This is a downgrading from the $2.2 billion loss previously forecast in March, although it is an improvement on the $4.3 billion that the region lost in 2009. GDP growth of 0.9% is not enough to support a recovery and the currency crisis clouds the future with uncertainty. Moreover, 70% of the $1.8 billion loss in revenue as a result of the volcanic ash crisis was borne by European carriers. A series of labor strikes and strike threats have also impacted the region's performance.
New faces on the IATA "Wall of Shame". German travel tax could be next
Bisignani took aim at labour (describing it as "out of touch with reality",) European ANSPs (which were added to the IATA Wall of Shame) and Western GDS providers (described as "leeches" on the industry).
Bisignani called on labour groups to "come down to earth, stop picketing and cooperate", noting airlines "cannot pay salary increases with our USD47 billion in losses".
He stated that the 19 European ANSPs increased their costs by USD413 million, adding that regulated performance targets "must replace the cost recovery model". He also described Airports Company South Africa as a "national embarrassment" by increasing its bill to airlines by USD1.2 billion over the next five years.
On the distribution providers, Mr Bisignani stated western GDSs "are leeches charging at least USD4 per transaction, when China's TravelSky does it for just USD1.20". He added, "on top of that, they sell you [airlines] your data with a seven-digit price tag - that is pure profit. BASTA!" He issued a warning that IATA would "break their monopoly on your data with a cost-effective solution".
Bisignani also took aim at governments, calling on them to refrain from applying further tax increases on the sector, instead "directing them at the banks starting with their billion-dollar bonus pots".
German Chancellor Angela Merkel yesterday unveiled plans to impose a tax on air travel as part of a four-year austerity plan to reduce the budget deficit. The levy, to be paid by passengers departing from German airports, with the level depending on factors such as the flight's noise level and fuel consumption, will raise EUR1 billion p/a. The levy would be replaced by a Europe-wide measure once aviation is subject to European Union carbon- emissions trading.
Outlook: more hard work to be done
IATA stated that seeing black on the bottom line is a "great achievement", underscoring the resilience of the industry, which has been "strengthened by a decade of cost cutting, restructuring and re-engineering processes".
Mr Bisignani concluded, "even with all of our hard work, the result is just a 0.5% margin that does not even cover our cost of capital. The industry is fragile. The challenge to build a healthy industry requires even greater alignment of governments, labour, and industry partners. They must all understand that this industry needs to continue to reduce costs, gain efficiencies and be able to restructure itself if it is to be sustainably profitable. We must all be prepared for a greater change".

In a previous post [link], Lucy explores the idea of abuse that can be stated is functional to adoptive parents withholding information from a child temporarily in their care. I didn't want to hijack that post, so I'm hoping to expand on that here a bit.
If we define the systemic displacement, dispossession, and disinheritance of a human being as a crime, how do we "unformalize" what has been deemed legal (with the unformalized notion of things like "trafficking" already being considered illegal)?
I ask this because when my lawyer went (for the third time) to attempt to find my records at the civil registry here, she was told (yet again) that there wasn't any file for me. It could be that the clerk was just lazy; was expecting a "tip"; couldn't be bothered—we don't know.
But my lawyer said: "I have a birth certificate here, there should be a corresponding document in your office. If you are saying there isn't one, than you are implying that this is a falsified document. If you let me leave with falsified government documents, than you are guilty of fraud, and I will press charges." The manager found my file in 5 minutes.
My point is that there is the direct abuse of withholding information, then there is the "aiding and abetting" of a crime by participating in known fraudulent circumstances. I acknowledge what "works" in the periphery is very different from what goes on in the core, as it were.
All the same, we're no longer in the halcyon days of Harry Holt and Pearl S. Buck. We know very well what is taking place when children change hands. Guatemalan mothers are already attempting to get the legal system to acknowledge their claims to their children, both in foreign and American courts.
The irony is that a falsified document in such a mother's hands that allows her to, say, work in the United States gets her deported. A similar falsified document in her son's or daughter's hands allows him or her to be adopted.
Might it be possible to frame a case to establish the fraudulent nature of adoption in and of itself, and by extension, the "aiding and abetting" of such fraud?
How might we stop "living a lie" and actually establish recognition of that lie?
This entry was posted in Adoptee Roundtable and tagged fraud, legal system, trafficking. Bookmark the permalink.
4. An original (accurate) birth certificate existed.
Of the foregoing, only the second matter turned out to be true.
After a direct confrontation, those-who-raised-me admitted they had driven several hours in order to met my mother. They had interviewed her and had provided her with money for food and prenatal care. They arranged for her to travel to where they lived, and to stay with their friends both before and for a brief period after I was born, and also arranged for her to receive care at the hospital where I was apparently born.
My "court file" is comprised of a one-line entry on the court's docket sheet (which is merely a record of documents filed with the court). A law firm paid a whopping $3.00 court fee for this entry. No pleadings, supplementary documents or Court Orders exist.
My original birth certificate reflects the name of a woman who gave birth to me. The surname is accurate (it is a fairly common surname) but the given name is not — I suspect the given name was purposefully altered because my mother's first name, and particularly its spelling, is uncommon. Further, my original birth certificate reflects that I was born a female, which, unless I had a complete DNA change sometime after being born, is completely false.
My birth mother died when I was six years of age. I have nearly irrefutable confirmation of my mother's true identity by way of the results of search efforts that many of us undertake, and confirmation of a DNA relationship with my mother's sister, a true aunt, who would be several years senior to my mother.
The physician who delivered me was know to be involved in "helping unwed mothers". I have interviewed not only those-who-raised me (who ultimately fessed up to having never followed laws pertaining to the A-word), but also a woman who procured two infants in the same manner. I also have two A-worded contacts who were also subjected to the same extra-legal (i.e., unlawful) processes as was I.
6. Officials at the level of the County Welfare Department and possibly officials at the level of the State Health Department (certain conflicting Court docket numbers exist in the file materials).
It almost sounds like a "conspiracy theory", except it is not theoretical at all.
If you figure out a way to do this let me know. My birthmom was given a fake name. I have a court document, the Consent for Adoption, that she was forced to sign with the fake name. The fake name was notarized. It's fraud and I need to find a lawyer but have no idea how to go about this.
If I take the list of five conditions for fraud as part of a genuine effort to work out the matter legally, and not simply a mealy-mouthed way to escape "justice" or a vacuously "complete" gesture on the part of a legal system to fill in all the details, then the nub of the issue for orphans comes out in a couple of directions.
(1) in the absence of the first three items, what is the injury done to the victim; who is culpable? If no inconsistencies exist in the documents, but orphan relies on the information and suffers an injury as a result, this fails to make the provisioners of the documents guilty of fraud (whether the information is true, false, or otherwise). In my parents' case, there was no fraudulence in neglecting to mention my African heritage (when they claimed I was Irish, German, and Welsh); that description was "false" but the doctors didn't know it (in all likelihood), and so could not have had any intent to deceive my parents.
People sufficiently outraged to have received a Black baby (against expectation) would likely say, "Well, the doctor should have known better. We relied on him to be well-informed." And thus the tricky ground of "negligence" gets entered into. Doubtless the doctor would say, "We went with the best information we had at the time," and unless my parents could find a report on my genetics in the doctor's file that clearly indicated my origins, contra their claim, then the courts will not be open to my parents' pleas.
(2) in the absence of the last two items, does an injury exist even when not registered by the victim? Assume the doctors knew my history and falsified documents in order to "make the sale." But my parents never registered any (injury from this. Or, even now, perceive no injury in getting a Black baby. Once again, no case of fraud results, even though the first three conditions are explicitly met. As I said elsewhere, a missing element involves that the person trafficked is not a party to these offenses. The injury for falsified documents goes to the adopting parents, not the orphan adopted.
Brent can probably tell us what the legal precedents are that would attach the (adult) child's interests to such fraudulent transactions.
Leave aside what actions are warranted in the case of demonstrating fraud.
As always, this point to the "missing third" in the triad, the child. By saying this, I admit that I think of the "triad" actually as a "quad": the "sender" (genetic parents), "receiver" (adopting parents), the "means of transmission" (adoption trafficker), and the "message" (the orphan, however manufactured).
Legally, the child (as a non-human and a piece of property) has his or her inalienable rights violated by this trafficking, but no one intervenes to stop these violations, legally because it is sanctioned, culturally because it is normalized. Orphans have been lobbying push-back for years now.
I learned, importantly, that the reason Washington opened its adoption records was because one of its elected politicians is herself adopted. A fine case of an individual taking advantage of the legal system for her own advantage (and the advantage of others). But I'm sure it's no accident that it was an orphan who pushed for and brought about the change.
So, to restate, in examining the conditions for fraud (assuming that the first three conditions are met), you propose the recognition of those rights (of the "fourth") that were overlooked at the time of the trafficking to be permitted a claim of injury for that falsification as well.
But then beyond even that, you are proposing something other than "fraud," that would name the injury done, even when items 1, 2 and 3 are handled with all due diligence, that would make the trafficking (the injury in 4 and 5) actionable.
This is actually a very far-ranging claim. The overwhelming bulk of Law around the world permits parents to "dispose of children" as they see fit, which includes selling a child (in the narrowly sanctioned channels where "sales" are permitted, which now includes surrogacy, &c). It will be a while before the injury of "life" gets acknowledged as actionable, but on a smaller scale, amongst the inalienable rights of a human being must be better articulated that right that states parents do not, in fact, get to dispose of their children as they "see fit". So long as children are, essentially, sub-humans (in legal terms), then they suffer the fate of slaves. And just as it was once not indecorous to purchase adults, so it is still not indecorous to purchase infants (through the proper channels of course).
I think Brent is largely telling us that "injuries" done to third-parties (the orphan) through the fraudulence of traffickers are not generally recognized by the courts, principally (it seems) because the injury properly speaking only attaches to the parents who were deceived. Unless they complain, nothing will be done.
So, if I've not completely muddled things up, then "fraud" will likely not provide a powerful channel for redress, all the more so given that its strictly application would be extremely difficult to prove.
I'm certainly no lawyer, and perhaps I've been amazed by my lawyers here in Lebanon and their ability to bend laws to fit the exceptional case which happens to be the adoptee returned and wanting nationality. That and enough bad lawyer drama from the television gives me an idea that there is often a way to twist things out of the system.
It's the very fact that the adoptee is considered to be the direct object (with no recourse and no need for recourse) that makes this seem ripe to me for some kind of legal activism. Especially given the vagaries of the definitions from state to state. And sometimes a case that is doomed to failure can stand as a testament for change.
This kind of thing already has a precedent in the "adopting back" legal activism (http://adoptingback.com/) which I've read about mostly in Canada.
Above and beyond the legal viability of the idea is me simply waxing hyperbolic on the subject….individual mileage may vary.

Local group looking to start children's chorus

MANISTEE — Joy Smith is the first to admit she loves the sound of a children's choir singing together in perfect harmony.
Those sounds are what have brought Smith back for the past 10 years as the director of the Manistee-Benzie Area Children's Chorus. After a decade of success with that program Smith is now in the process of expanding the program to create the City of Manistee Children's Chorus. Although it is called a City of Manistee Choir it is open to anyone from this area.
"The big difference between the two groups is the Manistee-Benzie Children's Chorus has always rehearsed in Arcadia," said Smith."It has 35 members in it, and we expect that one to remain very successful. However, it is difficult for a lot of Manistee kids to go up there and it is a 10-week choir."
Smith said that some Manistee children do take part in that choir, but they saw a need for one to be located more in the City of Manistee.
"The Manistee-Benzie Choir ends in the spring," she said. "We're going to have the City of Manistee Choir be a fall one that will culminate pretty close to Christmas."
Smith said they are still looking for a location from which to base the choir.She said at 2 p.m. on Feb. 8 they will be holding an organizational meeting for the new choir at the United Methodist Church.
"That meeting will only last about an hour and it is for parents to find out what is involved," she said. "This will be for children from age 8 to 18 years of age. It is not just send your kid to choir and it is done. There is some parental support that is needed and there is some monetary responsibility, but that is flexible."
The parents of each child is asked to pay a fee to be part of the chorus. Smith said that isn't a problem for some families, but for others it can be, and they have assistance when needed.
"In the Manistee-Benzie Chorus we have two families with five kids in it, and that is asking a big chunk of money, so we are flexible," she said. "Another way to manage that is by getting patrons, so their child can participate."
Smith said that is one of the important functions of the organizational meeting: To create a network to show parents their is support available throughout the group.
"Parents can work together to get business sponsorships or other kinds of patronages," she said. "It takes some money to put something like this together as there is the director's salary, the accompanist budget and other costs. The nice thing is we have seen how wonderful it works in Arcadia because it has been managed well. They have a handbook and Kristine Harvey handles all the administrative duties. She will be coming to our Manistee meeting, and we will have to find an administrator for this group."
Harvey said the Manistee-Benzie Chorus is going strong. She is happy to see Smith is modeling this new choir in the same fashion that has worked well with the Manistee-Benzie Choir.
"I am happy to say that we are starting our 10th season, and it is a project that is going strong with between 25 and 40 members each year," sshe said. "We are really thrilled this opportunity just continues.
Smith said they really would like to have at least 20 children to take part in the choir.
"Last spring we had 35 people in the Manistee-Benzie one, but if you get less than 20 kids it is going to be difficult," she said.
The director said she feels a choir will offer a musical outlet for a much-needed service in the community.
"We have a choral society in this town with adults that can function in four-part harmony," she said. "There are not many people in the 20-year old age group that can do it, because we haven't had a choir program in schools for a while. Right now there is only a seven week K-3 music program. Music education is a good thing to have as it helps us to conceptualize things."

Japan Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's visit to Pearl Harbor last December might have subdued the rage over the Asian country's World War II diplomatic folly 76 years ago but still the day goes in history as a major mistake that Japan could have averted.
Pearl harbor, the Pacific US Naval base in Hawaii was attacked by Japan on December 7, 1941 killing thousands of unprepared US sailors without proper announcement of war that raged the then neutral America to plunge into World War Two along side the Allies.
Bringing to memory, the events of the first week of December in 1941 remain vivid when Japanese ambassador who was entrusted with the task of war declaration to be handed over to Washington failed to do so on time. The Pearl Harbor attack on December 7 had preceded the declaration and the US blamed Japan for unilateral attack, an allegation that many Japan historians apologetically distance themselves from admitting.
When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, unprepared 2,400 American non-combatant soldiers were killed and then US President Franklin D. Roosevelt described it as the day "which will live in infamy." Last year's Abe visit to Pearl Harbor in December was made out to cement the animosity though not many people were conviced.
From the Japanese side, the brain behind Admiral Yamamoto had planned the attack within 30 minutes after the hand-over of its message of cancellation of negotiations in Washington DC. But transcribing the 5000-word notification took too long for Kichisaburo Nomura, the Japanese ambassador, that he failed to deliver it on time and finally presented it more than an hour after the attack.
While Japan termed the final part of the message as declaration of war, US officials understood it as termination of talks and not a declaration of war. It merely read: "The Japanese Government regrets to have to notify hereby the American Government that in view of the attitude of the American Government it cannot but consider that it is impossible to reach an agreement through further negotiations."
Though Japanese historians maintained for long that Japan was not at fault as the ambassador unduly delayed the delivery of the diplomatic message, Takeo Iguchi, a professor at International Christian University in Tokyo, discovered documents in 1999 which pointed out the conflicting view as per a December 7 entry in the war diary.
"The diary shows that the army and navy did not want to give any proper declaration of war, or indeed prior notice even of the termination of negotiations ... and they clearly prevailed," said Iguchi.
Otherwise, the Japanese attack took place in two waves and 2,403 Americans died with 1,178 wounded. In all, 18 ships were sunk or run aground, including five battleships, according to war records.

Are you looking for new releases in Film or Television to watch this weekend of June 17th!? Well, THS has you covered in our weekly series! So, make sure to come back each week as we compile all of our recommendations for you to check out on your days off.
However, I wanted to break down this list and make it a little more personal. Kind of like when you walk into a book store and see the wall of employee recommendations. So, I'll be breaking down this list as to what we at THS are watching, not necessarily every single thing releasing.
JESSICA'S WATCHING
I'm going to try Spiderhead on Netflix – the trailer gives me Black Mirror vibes. Also, Phil Tippett's stop motion animation horror movie Mad God, which looks totally bizarre and creepy. And then I'll swing in the full opposite direction to check out Pixar's Lightyear.
SHAWN'S WATCHING
This week, I will be watching Cha Cha Real Smooth on Apple TV+ for a second time. Cooper Raif's dramedy still ranks as one of my Top 5 Films of the Year, it is not to be missed. I will also be checking out Prime Video's "My Fake Boyfriend"… even though it doesn't look great, I gotta fill my weekend with at least one movie for Pride Month.
SARAH'S WATCHING
I've got a busy weekend ahead of me. I'm going to binge the new series from Jenny Han, The Summer I Turned Pretty on Prime Video, as well as The Lake. As someone who is obsessed with the After movie series, I'm also going to be watching Hero Fiennes Tiffin's new film, First Love. Then, I'm watching season 3 of Love, Victor on Hulu!
TRAVIS IS WATCHING
This weekend I'll be checking out Ms. Marvel on Disney+. I've been hearing mixed thoughts so want to watch and form my own opinion. I will also be hoping to catch a game 7 of the NBA Finals on Sunday since a game 7 is one of the best sports moments you can get.

There are no bars, no cells, or orange jumpsuits. In Spiderhead, incarcerated volunteers are free to be themselves. Until they're not. At times, they're a better version. Need to lighten up?

Q: How to convert .sql file to .db file for sqlite use in Android I have searched alot but not found any proper solution.
Any solution will be appreciated.

A: Using mysql:
 mysql -u root -p databaseName < file.sql

Where databaseName is an already created empty database and file.sql is the .sql file you have, you must be in the same folder as the file when you run the command. This also assumes using root as the user and that it is password protected. Modify as needed for your own setup.
Additionally, you can do the reverse by flipping the angled bracket to create a database dump to a file. Like below.
mysql -u root -p databaseName > file.sql

The answer is from here.

We are going to finish off 2018 in a major way. Our featured education will be delivered by AZREIA member, Bob Zachmeier. Bob is well-know for his super creative mind and ability to structure win-win-win deals. As most AZREIA members know, when Bob presents, you can't miss it. In December, we combine the AZREIA and Phoenix Real Estate Club meetings because of the Holiday schedule. So, Haves & Wants, a favorite of the Club, highlight our Workshop time at 5:15 pm.
Our workshop welcomes the Phoenix Real Estate Club structured networking. Imagine being able to share with hundreds of other investors just like you what your wants are and what you have for them. Face it, we all have wants and needs as investors. If we don't then we aren't very active. This session gives you the opportunity to tell everyone else in the room what you need. Maybe you are looking for a specific type of property; maybe you need partners or training or a referral for a good plumber. Whatever it is you get to ask for it. Also, maybe you have something other investors need. Maybe you have a property to wholesale or money to lend or appliances to sell. If another investor could use it you get to tell them about what you have. This is fun and very fast paced. It is also very effective. If we have time, we will also do another networking exercise and talk about some recent deals. There is no telling who you will meet or what you will find or sell in the Haves & Wants. Come prepared to listen, learn and share!
The market doesn't stop or care that we are celebrating, so we will be sure you have all the latest information! You will receive the latest in trend analysis and important news for the US, Arizona and Greater Phoenix real estate investment market. This is must know information for the serious real estate investor.
Finding profitable real estate investments can be challenging in today's short-supply market. The substantial down payment required to purchase rental properties significantly lowers the rate of return. Fix and flip investors no longer have a steady stream of foreclosures to choose from and often pay too much to be the winning bid. Non-performing notes that once sold for pennies on the dollar are selling for more than thirty cents on the dollar. To learn a better way to invest, with less capital, less risk, less headaches, and higher returns don't miss this session and supercharge your investment income! Bob Zachmeier is an innovative Real Estate Investor and Broker from Tucson, AZ specializing in "out of the box" solutions that enable buyers, sellers, and investors to create profitable seller-financed deals. Bob is an active real estate investor who has closed more than 4,000 real estate transactions, authored six books, and speaks nationally at real estate conferences.
