In this article I will providing an update in my JC Penney (NYSE:JCP) long thesis. I previously wrote about how the stock had a lot of potential, mainly due the business operating leverage and overall excessive pessimism from media, analysts and investors.
I will be going through a number of factors that have surfaced since those articles, some of them were good and some bad, but I want to make the assessment of the stock valuation as realistic as possible and not to be biased either way.
Since I wrote about JC Penney the last time a number of events have happened, lets start with the good:
- The company raised its credit lines from $1.5B to $1.85B plus an accordion feature that enables it to raise another $400M. This adds significant liquidity to its operations.
- The bondholder group that was claiming an event of default against the company dropped its claim.
- Joe Fresh stores have opened nationwide, and early reports are that it is doing well.
- Pessimism around the company is now higher than ever. I consider that a good thing since the historical evidence is that risk premiums are higher than average when there is a lot of pessimism, as Buffett says "be greedy when others are fearful."
Now for the bad:
Comp store sales came in worse than expected in Q4 2012.
- The company ended the year short of its $1B cash target of balance sheet liquidity, and that number would be even lower if it weren't for the delaying of some payables. This further removes any credibility from management guidance.
- The CFO said that people shouldn't be using the new stores sales (annualized) to model the value of the firm. In one of my articles, I did exactly that. I was puzzled by that statement given that the only reason I produced that model was because Ron Johnson said someone should do that in the Q3 earnings presentation:
"What we have said is we think we will get higher productivity and what I think you should do if I were an investor, I would model JC Penney at $200 a square foot, $225, $250 and start to see the sensitivity to that sales productivity growth at 40 points margin relative to our historic profit at other peers. So we are not out there saying that we are going to be at this mall or in a specialty store; we would love to be there, but we are not trying to say that at all. We are just encouraged that putting eight shops into 700 JC Penney stores, having 13 weeks of evidence, that is more than twice as much square footage as Apple has in its retail stores, delivered $60 a square foot improvement. That is pretty exciting. It doesn't mean it is going to happen with the next shop, but if we are smart, we have learned a lot about how to pick shop partners, how to build shops, how to create shops that excite customers. And if we are good at it, we ought to be able to achieve productivity like that going forward. But long term, we will have to see where the productivity ends up".
So from being encouraged by these 8 shops, finding it pretty exciting and saying people should model JCP based on "that productivity growth," management went to being "uncomfortable" with disclosing their new store sales and saying people shouldn't model the value of the firm based on that. I believe the CFO is onto something with regards to the specific productivity growth number (I used 33%, in line with data); the final number probably won't be 33%. It could be higher or lower, but they shouldn't hype the numbers in one event and downplay them in another, which brings me to next issue.
- Management inconsistencies and mistakes. In addition to the above, there was the fair and square pricing issued that Ron Johnson was pretty sure about and that didn't end up too well. Now the company is reversing that. I explained these pricing issues in an article. The graph that I showed there is a pretty important part of my thesis. Their guidance also has been remarkably poor: management guided +$2 in non-GAAP EPS or 2012 and delivered -$3 - they were off by $5 per share. Management performance has been quite sub par so far, I expected more from Ron Johnson, and I'm not happy to see these big mistakes that he made.
- Two analysts downgraded the stock from Buy and cut their price targets significantly. Normally I don't pay attention to analysts, but this case its different because these two risked their reputations for a long-time "sticking their neck out" for the Ron Johnson method, which makes me think they must have strong reliable reasons for the downgrades. Brian Nagel had something to say that I had not considered before: "We expect the construction activities and lack of home-related inventory to weigh on top line trends and/or limit a sales recovery at JCP in the early part of 2013." I'm particularly concerned about the construction activity issue given that JCP will be transforming about 30% of its selling space this year. If the construction activities will be hurting sales then this could become a big issue. It is also concerning that the downgrade from Citigroup came after Deborah Weinswig met with management. Having reaffirmed the rating just a few days prior, clearly she saw negative things that she didn't before. Both these analysts think the first half of 2013 will be difficult.
- The CFO hinted that he is open to an equity offering in the Bank of America Consumer Retail Conference. He mentioned that after going through cash and the credit line, the next option is "permanent capital," something that wouldn't create legacy problems. The new credit line also makes it easier to raise equity capital. This can throw the valuation models out of the window because it all depends on the pricing of the stock offering and how much is raised, which no one can know in advance.
Given all these factors, one might ask, why not sell the stock? As much as there are all these negatives I believe the stock can still pop due a number of other reasons:
- Even though the fundamentals have worsened, the market reaction has been extremely negative and so have the media, analysts and pretty much everybody with a pulse. This, combined with the high short interest, creates a situation which in my experience offers significant positive risk premiums for longs. When I began writing about JCP last year, the stock had just came off the earnings release and declined all the way down to $16. Then it proceeded to squeeze all the way up to $23. I believe something similar could be in the cards, although this time is further from a nobrainer compared to previous times, so my position size is smaller. I have been a short seller for a long-time and I can assure you it's extremely difficult to make money shorting when you have a stock that is down a lot, short interest is high, analysts hate it, the media hates it and implied volatility is high. If shorting is not the side to be on, then I want to be long unless I have a very good reason not to.
- New stores coming out offer asymmetric payoff for longs. If Joe Fresh is not so great perhaps the stock drops $2 or $3 (the decline is cushioned by short covering). If it is great, the stock is likely to fly back to $20s+ and trigger a squeeze. As I previously said this stock is like an option that is being mispriced due excessive pessimism; the shorts seem not to be aware of the significant skew that is in their return distribution.
- Comps are easier to beat this year.
- The risk of the offering is likely to be more of late 2013 or 2014 story.
JCP Liquidity Analysis and the Risk of an Equity Offering
Let's address liquidity in a practical way. For the entire year of fiscal 2012, the company had a negative operating cash flow of $10M. Backing out the merchant accounts payable (since it simply delayed the payment for a few weeks), you get to a negative operating cash flow of $150M per year. It did get a cash flow benefit from the inventory drawdown that was going on, and thus received an inflow of $575M from inventory liquidation.
The inventory drawdown is supposed to be over now, and this could mean some of that cash benefit would go away. Some people are speculating this means the company could run into cash trouble, I believe that point is irrelevant for the following reason: There is a credit line tied to the inventory. This means that from a cash perspective it can get the same benefit of decreasing the inventory to zero by drawing the credit line to its full capacity without even having to conduct one sale.
If you subtract the $575M from the $150M you get an organic cashburn of $725M from operations. But this assumes the clearance sales from inventories will disappear 100%, which is too conservative given that some clients will buy something else. Let's decrease that to $650M to be more realistic. Adding the expected $850M in capex, you get $1.5B in yearly cash burn (there are no debt maturities of meaningful size till 2015). This figure is probably overstated given that the company hasn't fully realized the $900M in savings, and that shows up in a lower operating cash flow (it is at a little less than $700M). Adjusting for that we would get to something like $1.32B in yearly cashburn. How does all of this compare to the liquidity available?
The CFO showed in the earnings presentation that the combination of cash on the balance sheet + credit line + accordion equals $3.10B in liquidity. This number backs out the delay in payments that it made in Q4, so to not double count that change (which is already adjusted in my cash burn figure), I would add that back in. So there would be $3.23B in liquidity. But there are also "several hundred million dollars" on non-core assets that can be sold according to the CFO. Since the company sold more than $500M worth of assets in 2012, I have no reason to doubt that statement. Adding $400M to that liquidity number we get to about $3.6B in "potential" liquidity.
How does the cash burn compare to the potential liquidity? $3.6/$1.32 = 2.72 years of liquidity left (2.4 years without the additional operating cost savings). This is a theoretical number, because it doesn't take into account issues with covenants, suppliers, partners, etc. (though the credit line doesn't have covenants until it's 90% drawn). But the main point is that for 2013, the liquidity of JC Penney is completely taken care off, even if sales deteriorate, and it is likely to be ok for a most of 2014 as well. It can also slow down investments since their capex is almost entirely discretionary. This makes me think that an equity offering is unlikely for 2013.
JC Penney fundamentals have worsened. But I believe the pessimism has increased even more, which makes me think the stock is still a buy even if for just a trade. The risk in the stock from a fundamental perspective is high for the first half of 2013 due to some of the operating issues I mentioned in this article, but I also know that nobody has ever gotten rich shorting a stock with a huge implied volatility (a proxy for fear) and high short interest that analysts and the media hates, which makes me think the long side is side to be on. My position size is not big due the uncertainties, but I'm prepared to significantly increase my stake if the comps in Q1 or Q2 start to look better.
Disclosure: I am long JCP. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

Originally written on Taking Bad Schotz | Last updated 10/25/14
It's incredible how the whole mood of the sports world can just shift from excitement to devastation. Usually this will happen to one teams' fans if their team loses, but this time it was everyone. On Sunday the entire sports world held a teary eye as we witnessed Louisville's Kevin Ware suffer a grotesque compound fracture to his leg on national television. via newyorker.com With six minutes and thirty-three seconds left in the first half of Louisville and Duke's elite eight matchup, Ware leaped to try and block a three pointer by Tyler Thornton, but as he came down his lower right leg snapped in half. The bone protruded from the skin and quickly sent every spectator into a state of horror. The image that is still stuck in my head is of the Louisville bench, all at once, cowering in fear and shielding their eyes as they noticed the gruesome injury bestowed upon them. I myself had been in the shower during the injury and returned to my room to find my friends just in utter shock. Ware was being carted off at the time and I knew something horrible had happened, but I just hoped it was not the worst case scenario, which it was. Thankfully, last night we got word that he had undergone successful surgery on his leg; and he even was going to attempt to make the trip with the team to Atlanta. Now we must hope no infection develops which would complicate the recovery process. Unfortunately, during my senior year in high school my good friend suffered a very similar injury in a varsity soccer game. As he and the goalie were going for the ball, the goalie accidentally slid into his leg causing a similar compound fracture that Ware suffered on Sunday. After the initial surgery, two infections developed which caused more surgeries to be performed. It took ten procedures for him to completely rid the infections and get his leg back to full health. He is now completely back to full strength and is playing sports again, but the recovery process was a long and grueling one to endure. In order to come back from such an injury one must find that inner strength and determination that is needed to will the body and mind to return. My friend, Jake, willed himself to do that very thing and is now scheduled to return to the soccer field during Memorial Day weekend, which at one point seemed like an impossible thought. Ware seems like he is determined to comeback better than ever, and it clearly is possible if he works as hard as Jake did. The Louisville back-up point guard was coming on strong of late and quickly becoming a vital part to the teams' success. As soon as his teammates noticed the injury they burst into tears, including the coaches. No one wants to see that happen to anyone, and even the Duke side displayed similar emotions. The injury was more than enough for the Cardinals to rally and win the game, but once Ware went down he called over his teammates and told them, "Win the game." It's crazy how the guys' lower portion of his leg was dangling, and all Ware was concerned about was the game at hand. Sometimes we can't control what happens to us, sometimes it's just part of life, and we have to bounce back and deal with what life throws at us. Ware understands this and will come back from this tragic injury that he was dealt. The only thing Louisville can do now is win the whole thing for him. Just two games separate them from that goal, and hopefully Kevin is there in Atlanta on Saturday rooting them on. The whole sports world stopped on Sunday night. No one cared who was winning the game and no one cared about their brackets. They all just took a little time out of their lives and prayed for Ware and his family, because sometimes there are just more important things than the game itself. -Huberman

Hello Twisted Fate,
I heard from somewhere that you and Evelynn still teach tango in a demacian dance school. Regardless of whether or not this is true i would like knowing if you and Evelynn still talk and get along. I do hope i didn't stike a nerve though. my sincerest apologies if i did.
Dear Twisted Fate,
I've heard rumors that you have begun dabbling in magic. If this is true, are you attempting to improve your magical abilities?
Best regards,
Summoner Wex.
P.S.: Where did you get that deck?
(OOC: Could you add me on League so we could talk about your relationship with Sona? I'm going to try and write it into a story)
Oh, you need a new tango partner? Orianna is an exceptional dancer, from what I've seen. She does ballerina, but I'm sure she could learn tango very quickly.

Tablets are used mainly in the home, smartphones across a range of situations.
Agencies and advertisers are becoming increasingly intrigued by the relationship between users' consumption of TV content, and their use of mobile connected devices. According to new research by The Nielsen Company, that link is a strong one, and over 68 percent of tablet and smartphone owners report using them in front of their televisions.
In fact, according to a survey of nearly 12,000 device owners, Nielsen suggests tablet users make use of their device in front of the TV more than in any other situation, followed by lying in bed, and then with friends or family.
Smartphone owners demonstrated different behavioral patterns, meanwhile, probably due to the compact and more portable nature of those devices. As with tablets, watching TV topped the list of situations in which smartphones were used, but was followed closely by shopping or running errands, and then by waiting for something - such as a train, for example.
Overall, smartphones are used across a much wider range of situations than tablets, which are reserved largely for use in the home, the data suggests.

Propagating with ground dirt
I ran out of money and primarily patience by trying propagation as my first activity in my new gardening hobby. Can i just use regular dirt from the ground to propagate? I used a grass flat with holes in the bottom to keep most rocks out...I guess i should of asked this question before I ended up with a huge pile of nice ground dirt in my driveway!
You can get some things to root in plain soil, depends on which plant you are trying to work with. Even using plain sand some times can work. But really a lot use just peat moss and perlite. You can get a lot of cuttings with using 3.8 cu ft of peat and perlite mix which would probably cost no more than $25 or so.
Your huge pile of dirt in your driveway I guess is a yard or two of "topsoil" you ordered delivered. You can propagate lots of plants in it. Divisions work really well. Cuttings from many plants will also do well. If you plan on growing from seed, the weed seeds in the topsoil are usually much faster than the seeds you plant, which will be overwhelmed if the soil is not sterilized first as george has suggested. Al
I think it depends on what you are trying to grow, how easily it roots, and the conditions it is put in.
Outdoor soil is very biologically active, containing insects, fungi, bacteria and weed seeds. If you want to root a plant that is very strong and hardy, roots well and is well-adapted to your climate, you can do it. Plants that are more difficult to root will probably not fair well.
If you want to use outdoor dirt try layering instead of making cuttings. Layering is like a cutting but the portion of the plant you are trying to root is still attached to the plant. You can feed a stem/shoot through the drain holes in the bottom of a pot, make a few knicks/wounds in the stem with a knife, filling the pot with dirt, waiting a few weeks and then severing the stem below the pot.
The reason why this is easier than cutting is that the portion of the plant being rooted is still being fed by the parent plant, so it can hold its own in the thriving ecosystem of garden soil.

Bio: Twenty Two Hundred is a thundering fusion of classic rock and funk. Drawing on classic rock influences such as Led Zeppelin, AC/DC and Jimi Hendrix, and fusing them with grooves and funk bass lines similar to that of Rage Against the Machine, The Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Primus, Twenty Two Hund...See Full Bio
"'... this Blues based Hard Rock outfit, with a strong eye for an 80s hook and guitar line, made such an impression that the healthy (although in the enormodome that is Glasgows' Hydro, it felt sparse) early turnout were all talking about them in glowing terms. '7XDown' set the tone for some explosive guitar, thrumming bass lines and a classy howl, while 'Crises' proved there was no such thing! Add in the considered 'Why Can't You Love Me', the fiery 'No Rescue' and the hammer strike of 'Shot Down', and guitarist Marcus Kain, bassist Mark Wells and drummer Drew Alig knew it was job done. With only two releases in four years, this band may not be overloading us with content, but it sure is quality over quantity…""

Cabinet over sink, questions
We are just being a complete DIY gut and installation of our kitchen, all the way down to the studs, rafters, and joists (aagh!) Our ceilings are 106". Storage space is at a minimum in our 90 year old home, so I've chosen to put a cabinet over the sink to try to make use of the area. My husband isn't sure it will look great. If it doesn't, we won't use it!
My problem is lighting it. We are using flourescent fixtures under the cabinets. I don't want to do that with this cabinet because it will be completely visible.
What are some lighting solutions for this sort of situation? I've realized a pendant would hit us in the head, so I think I'd like something surface mount, a xenon puck perhaps? Some sort of small flush mount fixture?
I have looked at all kind of lighting sites and am still clueless.
If it helps, the other lighting in the room are recessed cans and probably a Solartube. We have a large pendant over our breakfast bar/table.
Any suggestions?
I put a low profile undermount flourescent fixture on the cabinet above the sink. It's placed in the back of the cabinet close to the wall and in front of it is an undermount paper towel holder. I also have an apron on all of the cabinets so the light fixture is completely invisible.
I have a display in my showroom. We stacked two cabinets...the lower one is a 'plate rack' that we reduced in depth to 9". I like the continuous line of cabinets (instead of different heights). We used a narrow 'light rail' This set up is not a head banger...does not impede faucet useage...has room for strip lights and would look great in a vintage home.
Ps. Note also how I use 'full height doors' on sink bases. I do this a lot. I personally don't like the fake drawer. I also think it looks better in an older (pre 1940s) home.
Whoops! Yes, the cabinet is going to be much higher. It's going over a window in front of the sink. The bottom of the cabinet will be 83" above the floor. We have very limited closet space in the house and I'm storing serving pieces/serving appliances in all my high spots. The cabinet will be 36W X 18H X 15D.
My husband even wanted to put a cabinet over the doorway to the hallway, between our enclosed chimney and our pantry cabinet!
I know, unusual...
Thanks for the ideas so far!
Well, now I'm very interested! I have a big chunky valance over my current window-over-a-sink and think it oughta be a cabinet too! You might be able to put in a simple fluorescent box fixture with a decorative valance in front of it. That might drop it below window height though, and that's no good. You may have to inset a puck into the cabinet and sacrifice some cabinet interior for it.
How much space do you have to work with, between bottom of cabinet and the window frame?
Pretty much anywhere from 0-2". I haven't decided on my crown molding yet and I have 5" to the ceiling from the top of the cabinet.
I saw xenon pucks. Since my original post I also saw a plain round flush mount fixture in the mfr line of my pendant light over the future table (lol). My husband thinks he can mount this with a slim box and not intrude on the interior of the cabinet too much.
But it's not very attractive.
Husband is almost 6'4" and so I don't think a semi-flush will work. Will it?
I'm going to try and post a picture. Never done this before. No idea whose kitchen this is. It's a photo I collected of a kitchen that is very like mine and was one of my inspirations. In fact, we both have the exact same hood. :)
I thought of it immediately because it has cabinets over the sink. I left it open up there but I like how it looks in this house. It seems the light is behind the valence.
Hope this works!

Fresh Air Weekend: Andrew Rannells, Bob Dylan
Fresh Air Weekend highlights some of the best interviews and reviews from past weeks, and new program elements specially paced for weekends. Our weekend show emphasizes interviews with writers, filmmakers, actors, and musicians, and often includes excerpts from live in-studio concerts. This week:
Andrew Rannells: Gay And Serious In 'New Normal': The actor stars in the new comedy TV series The New Normal about a gay couple who want a child so they hire a surrogate. Rannells tells Fresh Air that he didn't want to "dumb down" the serious role with "stereotypical over-the-top gay flash and sass."
Bob Dylan's Baffling And Sometimes Beautiful 'Tempest': Critic Ken Tucker says that some songs on Tempest sound less like concentrated efforts than outpourings of rambling thoughts; others are as precisely crafted as any Bob Dylan has written.
New Center Trains Detection Dogs To Save Lives: The center for scientists to study what helps dogs succeed in search-and-rescue operations opens Tuesday at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Cynthia Otto, who created the center, and Annemarie DeAngelo, the center's training director, tell Fresh Air why they depend on their canine companions.

Sensor Kinetics is an advanced viewer and monitor for all of the standard sensors available in your Android device. The new built-in Multi-Sensor Recorder allows you to record up to six kinetic sensors simultaneously.
Written by one of the pioneers of the use of accelerometers and gyroscopes within the modern smartphone, it provides a comprehensive look at the total dynamics of the combined operations of all the sensors.
The app demonstrates the use of the accelerometer, gyroscope and the rotation sensor to control a tilt based view navigation like the RotoView technology by INNOVENTIONS. It also demonstrates the operation of the magnetic sensor, the linear acceleration sensor and the gravity sensor within special graphical displays.
Use Sensor Kinetics to monitor and understand the behavior of the sensors while you change the delay setting or activate/deactivate specific sensors. Each sensor is attached to a sophisticated chart viewer. The Multi-Sensor Recorder records multiple sensors simultaneously at a controlled data rate. If you need to save or share sensor charts, please purchase the companion Sensor Kinetics Pro.
For educational users, the app includes comprehensive help files which provide physics students with hands-on knowledge of how these sensors interact with smartphones and suggest numerous experiments you can perform on your phone or tablet.
Who Should Use Sensor Kinetics?
Developers, students, hobbyists, technicians, engineers... anyone who's curious about what lies "under the hood" of their mobile device!
Test your Android phone or tablet: Sensor Kinetics allows you to test all of the sensors on your device. For example, you can quickly determine if your Android device has a gyroscope sensor and how fast it's operating. The numerous chart viewers allow you to measure any sensor over time and gauge their accuracy and behavior.
Educational: Sensor Kinetics demonstrates the physics of gravity, acceleration, rotation, magnetism and more as these forces are measured by your phone or tablet. The app includes comprehensive help files with easy to understand information and experiments you can perform with the sensors.
App Developers: View in detail the behavior of the sensors used in your apps. Compare the performance of advanced sensors like gyroscope, linear acceleration sensor and the rotation sensor.

What's New
Sensor Box for Android
Sensors included
- Gyroscope Sensor
Gyroscope sensor can measure six directions at a time. You will be able to see the effects immediately by rotating your phone slightly. Now Gyroscope sensor is mostly used in 3D game development, and possibly indoor navigation in future.
- Light Sensor
Light sensor is applied to detect the light intensity of the environment, and then adjusts screen brightness and determines whether to turn off the keyboard light. Test the effect by putting your phone in dark place and retrieving it.
- Orientation Sensor
Orientation sensor is applied to detect direction status of the device, i.e. auto rotate screen when device is rotated horizontally. It can also be used as measure equipment like Spirit Level.
- Proximity Sensor
Proximity sensor measures the distance between two objects, usually the device screen and our hands/face etc. Test the effect by moving your hand forward and backward in front of the device in Sensor Box for Android.
- Temperature Sensor
Temperature sensor provides information about your device temperature, thus you can take action when the temp is too low or high.
- Accelerometer Sensor
Accelerometer sensor is applied to detect device directions, i.e. auto rotate screen when the device is rotated vertically. It is also widely used in game development.
- Sound
Sound detects the sound intensity around you and provides you detailed information about the intensity changes.
- Magnetic Field
Magnetic Field is used in many areas like metal detection and compass, which bring us lot convenience in our life.
- Pressure
Pressure is used to detect environmental pressure, thus to forecast weather and temperature.
Sensor Box for Android only detects changes. It may not show the correct temperature, proximity, light and pressure values if no changes occur.
For better performances, sensors are usually used together. Check out the live demonstration inside the application! Any feedback the email address below is the best way to get in touch with us.
Phone Tester (sensors, GPS...)
You'll be able to test the following:
Accelerometer, gyroscope, compass, proximity sensor, pressure sensor... You'll be able to check which sensors are supported by your phone and all the information and values provided for each sensor.
You'll be able to check your LAN status: internal & external IP, gateway, DHCP server...
Signal, network type, external IP, SIM data...
You'll see the real data provided by the GPS: satellites, latitude, longitude, altitude, speed...
Level of charge, time on, temperature, health...
How many points of contact does your device recognize?
Information about hardware and software like CPU, RAM, kernel version, screen...
This app is similar to EVEREST or AIDA64, but apart from showing the components and system information, it also shows sensors readings.
The Pro version of Phone Tester displays more information (CPU speed, phone memory, sd card memory) and removes the ads.

Gyroscope Explorer
If you do have a gyroscope, be aware that the quality of the drift compensations on the gyroscope sensor vary considerably among devices. In the case that your device has a gyroscope that doesn't work well, there is the option to fuse the gyroscope with the acceleration and magnetic sensors. This option, which uses a fusion of the acceleration, magnetic and gyroscope sensors via complementary filter to determine the rotation of the device, is far more reliable that the gyroscope sensor alone.
Gyroscopes measure the rotation of a device with a pair of vibrating arms that take advantage of what is known as the Coriolis effect, which is caused by the Earth's rotation. By measuring changes in the direction of the vibrating arms caused by a rotation and the Coriolis effect, an estimation of the rotation can be produced. The gyroscope is one of three sensors that are always hardware based (the other two are the magnetic and the acceleration sensors) on Android devices. In conjunction with the acceleration sensor, the gyroscope can be used to create other sensors like gravity, linear acceleration or rotation sensors.
If your device is equipped with Android 4.4 or higher, you *might* have the uncalibrated version of the gyroscope so you can see how drift affects the gyroscope sensor relative to the calibrated gyroscope.
Galaxy S4 Sensors
* Ambient air temperature,
* Illuminance,
* Ambient air pressure,
* Ambient relative humidity.
Attention: Works only on Samsung Galaxy S4 !!!
Simple Touchscreen Tester
Make sure your touchscreen is clean before starting.
Touch your screen to turn the dark squares to white.
You can test by tapping or swiping your screen.
The app only tests down to a certain level of accuracy, i.e. the size of each square. This varies depending on the pixel density of your screen though it should be accurate enough for most phones.
Keep in mind that sometimes a single app might not always work on your specific device so it is best to test using multiple apps and comparing the results before sending your device off to repair!
Galaxy Sensors
** models like Galaxy S3-S5 or Galaxy Note2-Note4 are missing temperature and humidity sensor, not my fault, sorry, the device manufacturer has decided to remove these sensors **
** if a sensor is set as "NOT PRESENT" is because your phone doesn't have it **
- Ambient temperature in degrees celsius
- Percentage of moisture in the air
- Light intensity
- Air pressure
- Height above sea level
- widget with ambient temperature! more coming soon
** The data is read directly from the sensors could then have an error of up to 5-10% (in the worst case) that does not depend on me, but by the sensors, unfortunately I can not do anything about it, to try to reduce the errors Please keep the device on a flat surface for a few seconds, so that the values are optimized, if your hands touch the device, the temperature will be too high of some degree **
If you want to report the full compatibility of your device with the application please leave feedback or send me an email, so it will be added to the list, any feedback and comments are very much appreciated, the application aims to be simple and instant, to have at hand all the data from the main sensors of the phone, if there are suggestions, recommendations and requests for additions will be happy to provide (where possible)

Proximity Sensor Finder
Proximity Sensor Finder tells you a few things about your device:
1. Does the device have a proximity sensor?
2. Is an object in close proximity detected?
3. Does this device support actual proximity distances or just "covered" and "uncovered" sensor states?
4. For supported devices, exactly how far away is the object?
5. How long has the sensor been covered?
6. How much power is the proximity sensor consuming?
We developed Proximity Sensor Finder as an internal testing tool but it soon became apparent that there was a need in the market for just such an app, so we decided to ship it and make it free!

Gravity Screen - On/Off
The most popular screen on/off app. Reviewed by LifeHacker, MakeUseOf, TheNextWeb and many others ...
• Pocket Sensor: Turns the screen off if your phone is in your pocket.
• Table Sensor: Detects your phone is lying on a table and turn it off if not in use.
• Turn Screen On by Motion: If the screen is off and it's facing up the device can be woken up by moving it.
• Keep Screen On by Motion: It keeps the screen on while you are watching the screen. It relies on the small movements of your hand while holding the device.
• Smart Lock support: It's a workaround to make the Smart lock feature work fine on devices with Lollipop.
• Locale plug-in for: Tasker, Llama and others
• Wider range in Table Sensor
• Turn Screen On by Motion Timeout can be set above 15 minutes
• Exclude Apps option (except Lollipop): Gravity screen is paused while selected app is running
• Widgets, PowerToggles plug-in
VERSIONS: FREE vs. PRO vs. UNLOCKED by IN-APP PURCHASE (recommended)
In the Pro version:
• there is no 15 minutes limit for turning the screen on by motion.
• Table sensor can be set more precisely.
Unlocked version has everything what Pro has, plus it has:
• Exclude App list (except Lollipop)
• more advanced Delayed lock option
• Widgets.
It should be not significant. I experienced about 6 per cent extra consumption on the test device. However it can be much higher by often using the Turn Screen On by Motion feature. Thus, keep your phone face down if you want to save energy.
Where is the Pro version? I cannot find it on Play Store
The Pro version is discontinued unfortunately, due to security reasons.
To change to the Unlocked version, please, do the followings:
- unlock the Free version by In-app Purchase
- send me the two purchase numbers or the two receipts you got from Google Play (Pro and Unlocked)
- and I'll refund the purchase of the Pro version
Sorry for the inconveniences.
FAQ: http://goo.gl/D4BgQ5

Version 3.5 added support for battery status (temperature, voltage and percentage), sound level and signal strength!
Perfect for showcasing capabilities of your new phone, as well as hardware diagnostics after you have gone through a system update or repair. And it's a must have development tool when you develop applications that uses these sensors.
Screebl - Screen On/Off Sensor
Screebl, the battery saver keep your screen on wunderkind, works based on a simple observation: we generally hold our phones or tablets in roughly the same positions when we're using them. Screebl uses the sensors in your mobile device to detect how you're holding it, and when your device is within a configurable range, the screen is kept on. Move out of that range, and Screebl releases the lock and the screen is allowed to go off. Using gravity, screen orientation, and other cues, your screen is kept on when it should be, and turned off when you don't need it. It's simple, but it works amazingly well!
How is Screebl a battery saver? Well, it's simple. On most phones, the screen is the single largest consumer of battery power. With Screebl running you can reduce the average amount of time that your screen is on by only keeping it on when you're ACTUALLY using your phone. The amount of savings can vary significantly by device and usage patterns, but it is not uncommon for users to see savings of 20% or more. See our web site for more details.

BILLING - Needed to allow in-app upgrade of Screebl Lite to Pro.
READ_PHONE_STATE - Needed to check phone state (e.g., in-call, speakerphone on, etc.) to provide in-call behavior (e.g., disable Screebl or lock screen on)
✓ Some phones do NOT deliver sensor events when the screen is off. Examples include some HTC phones, some Sony Xperia phones, and quite a few Motorola phones. PocketLock may not work properly on these phones. See this link for more info: http://www.saltwebsites.com/2012/android-accelerometers-screen-off
✓ PocketLock sometimes causes battery drain on some devices. The effect of the PocketLock feature varies widely from one device to another. The longer that you have PocketLock monitor for removal from your pocket, the more power used. Most devices see a minor increase in power consumption when using PocketLock (4-8%).
✓ Stillness detection doesn't detect small movements on some devices. A few devices have coarse-grained sensors, and movement is not detected well, causing unwanted stillness timeouts. I am working on a fix for this that will be in an upcoming release. Most phones are fine.
✓ Screebl doesn't start when the phone is powered-on. On some HTC phones the "fastboot" capability can cause problems with Screebl starting at power-on. I've done my best to fix this, but it still is a problem on some HTC devices. Screebl must NOT be moved to SD storage.

RotoView Photo Viewer
No more slow, annoying fingertip scrolling. No more dirt smeared on your screen. Scrolling the old way using the touch screen takes many drag motions with your fingers to pan across an enlarged photo. RotoView image viewer ergonomically scrolls your large images much faster, using just one hand. Once you've tried it, "tilt-to-scroll" will become second nature.
RotoView Photo Viewer is simple to use! Just select any picture from your photo albums, double tap or pinch to magnify, and activate RotoView Smart Scroll with a gentle up-down shake. You can also start it with a long press anywhere on the screen, or with a tap on the area assigned to the unique scroll controller. Slightly rotate your phone and watch how smoothly and quickly you can view different areas of the magnified photo. Stop RotoView by a tap anywhere on the screen or by a gentle up-down shake.
The RotoView picture viewer uses the unique Throw and Glide rotation gestures to scroll your photos. The Throw gesture rapidly scrolls enlarged photos in response to the small rotations (tilting) of your phone. The Glide gesture follows the Throw gesture automatically with slower, more precise scrolling.
RotoView Photo Viewer works with all Android smartphones and tablets that have a gyroscope sensor or an accelerometer (G-Sensor).
• Simple, fast, and intuitive viewer with single hand scrolling
• Allows you to combine rotation and touch screen gestures
• The unique Scroll Controller guides you while viewing the magnified photo
• Works with all of your albums and photos
• Seamless integration with all other photo editors on your device
The app uses some of the same permissions of the stock Android "Gallery" app on which it is based. This is necessary in order to show your photo locations and access all the albums on your device. The RotoView section of the app makes no use of these permissions, and the app does not collect any personal data.
RotoView Photo Viewer is created by the company that invented and pioneered the tilt-to-scroll concept. Our developers are waiting for your comments. If you encounter a bug, please notify our tech support department at email@example.com. We look forward to improving our user interface with your suggestions.
RotoView Photo Viewer relates to picture, image and photo viewing, photo magnifier, photo magnifying, photo sharing and photo editing. This app uses the built in gyroscope and accelerometer sensors for ergonomic tilt-based scrolling.

Best Surf Spot in Los Angeles (2011)
El Porto Beach
Just a 10-minute drive from LAX — take Lincoln south to Imperial west to Vista Del Mar south — is the biggest and cleanest beach with the most reliable surf break around, thanks to an underwater canyon that creates fine waves. El Porto Beach looks like what out-of-towners envision when they dream of California beach life: endless white sand, blue skies and a never-ending supply of crashing, pounding waves. Everybody simply ignores the Chevron oil refinery and the Hyperion Water Treatment facility looming in the background. Add in a snack shack, outdoor shower, volleyball courts and a bike path overlooking the beach, and you have surf heaven. Culturally, El Porto was home to the cocaine explosion in the 1970s and '80s, as documented in the Johnny Depp feature film Blow. Five years ago the Manhattan Beach City Council tried to erase its druggy, Bohemian image by officially renaming it "North Manhattan Beach," a widely ignored municipal makeover. El Porto has a huge metered parking lot that backs up on the hottest days of the summer. Be patient and you'll get a spot. Intersection of Vista Del Mar and 45th St., Manhattan Beach.

It's APRIL tomorrow people. I just can't believe it. Where has the first quarter of this year gone? It's passed me by in a cold white flash I guess.
I love a good meat sauce. What's not to love, it's hearty stick to your ribs kinda food. Sometimes though I don't have the time that my beloved BOLOGNESE sauce takes to make.
I have a coffee problem. Meaning if I don't have my morning cup (or two okay usually two who am I kidding) there's going to be a problem.
If you've known me for any length of time you KNOW that Spaghetti alla Carbonara is my hands down all time favorite meal.
Sweet potatoes aren't just for baking. Nope, apparently they make a creamy dreamy addition to tomato sauce.
If you know me you know I don't drink beer. At all. I gave it the good old college try, in well you guessed it, college.
Have I mentioned how much we absolutely are coo coo for coco puffs over blood oranges? Well we are. We've been buying them up every time we're at the market and will keep doing so until they're gone.
You might have heard these bars called by a few different names: Millionaire Bars, Millionaire's Shortbread, Copycat Twix Bars.
As I'm sitting here looking out my window and seeing a BLANKET of WHITE (yes we're having yet another snow day here), I'm dreaming about warmer weather and quick, simple and flavorful foods.
We've got a new taco for your Tuesday taco night taco night, or Thursday taco night but does anyone really prefer Thursdays to Tuesday taco nights?
Why yes it's snowing outside (in our neck of the woods and probably in a lot of yours) and we're making homemade ice cream.
I haven't met too many people who don't adore flan. It's creamy dreamy and you might be surprised to know that it's super simple to make.
Bacon makes everything better. It's true. At least in my world. Pairing bacon with Brussels Sprouts and pasta well that was inevitable in my house.
A few months back we took a Carnival CRUISE . Have I mentioned that I LOVE to cruise. Cruisin' is aca-AWESOME.
GINGER SNAP CRUSTED CHOCOLATE MOUSSE TARTS (Gluten Free) Have an occasion that calls for creating special dessert?
Like almost every other child I know my kids go berserk for macaroni and cheese. They'd probably eat it every single day if I let them.
If you're gluten free you're probably familiar with flour-less cakes and can sing their praises with the dessert choir.
Gluten free is looking good. Real good. If you're looking for an easy peasy dessert you've found it. Chocolate mousse is quick and easy and honestly you can eat it by itself if you don't want to take the extra step and make the crust.
I believe in moderation. So since I've been a VERY good girl this week and put in the time with my workouts I'm rewarding myself with a tart.
Have I mentioned lately that one of my new favorite vegetables is cauliflower? 'Tis true. I might have a problem considering I buy a head of it every time I'm at the market.

Feel The Love As Man Serenades Adorable Pit Bull
So, we know that pit bulls, when raised right, are really just big bundles of love. But this video takes it to a whole other level. A man sings a special song to his pit bull, Doogie, and the love-fest beings. There are hugs, smooches and snuggles. The song is a little odd, and nothing to write home about, but the love is real, and it is strong.

Julie Batten | April 12, 2010 | Comments
The more that businesses invest in paid and organic search strategies, the hotter the competition gets. Here are ways marketers can stay ahead of their rivals.
Have you ever wondered why, despite the fact that your search strategies are more sophisticated and your budget healthier every year, search marketing results get harder to achieve as time goes on?
It's not your fault; it's the changing environment. What you're facing is the increasing competition of the search engine results page (SERP). As more and more companies are realizing the baseline importance of having a Web site, and the number of sites increase, so will the search engine results naturally increase in volume. But also, I believe this can be attributed in part to the rising importance and budget allocated to search marketing strategies. The more companies and site owners invest in paid and organic search strategies, the hotter the competition gets.
Let's consider a concrete example.
Back in 2008, I wrote the column, "The Seasonality of Search and Taxes." In this column, I showed a Google.com SERP (define) for the term "tax return," taken in mid-April 2008. I just ran that same query "tax return" in Google today (mid-April 2010). Below, are the two SERPs. Before reading on, look at each carefully and note any differences between the two.
|April 2008
|April 2010
Some key differences in the 2010 SERP you may have noted:
But did you notice the most important difference?
By far the biggest difference is the sheer volume of results. When you look at the first SERP on any given query, you will see a blue bar below the search box, on which the right-hand side will read, "Results 1-10 of about X." This is telling you that the SERP is displaying the top 10 organic results of the total number of results (X).
The 2008 SERP for the query "tax return" showed 13.6 million results. That same query in 2009 now shows 67.7 million. That's a five-time increase in two years! Although this is just one example, I have seen similar increases in search results in many other categories as well.
That's a little crazy, but so what? Why should you care about this rise in competition?
You should care because it could (and should) impact your search strategies and approaches.
In the face of increasing competition, you may want to:
These are just a few ideas for remaining competitive in today's cluttered search space, but I'd love to hear your ideas as well. Feel free to comment on this column with additional ideas that you've applied or are planning to test out.

Good historical novel, like a history lesson with fictional characters designed to illustrate the competing factions. Ordinary people appear mostly in the abstract. The author's emphasis is on making the incredibly complicated political dynamics of the period comprehensible to the reader.

From: The Chairman of Governors Dear Parents Independent Schools Inspectorate ~ Final Report (Standard Inspection) As you know, in March, Parkside underwent an Inspection carried out by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI). The formal Report has been published and is now attached to this e-mail. I would encourage you to take time to read the full Report as it covers all aspects of life at the school, from the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) through to the 6th Form. The School Governors are delighted with the Inspectors' findings which, as you will see, are a very positive endorsement of the Leadership, Teaching and Management of the school. It is clear too, that Inspectors were very impressed by the boys social development and confidence and their ability to apply knowledge and skills creatively and critically. This is, after all, the outcome that all of us involved in the school are seeking to deliver. The Report also refers to how strongly supportive the parents are and I would like to thank you very much for the feedback you provided in the Parental Survey during the first part of the Inspection process, as well as when the Inspectors were in the school. The role of an Inspection is to measure the school against a stringent set of rules, requirements and regulations to identify areas where improvements can be made. Currently we have to comply with over 130 Statutory Regulations! The Inspectors were very thorough in looking at the school's numerous Policies and Documentation for compliance, as well as all aspects of school life. You will see that the Report contains very few recommendations and, those that there are, will be acted upon speedily. Preparation for an Inspection creates a huge additional burden on already busy staff, both Teaching and Support Staff. I want to take this opportunity to thank the headmaster and his team for the excellent preparation process and the positive and enthusiastic way in which everyone interacted with the Inspectors during their time at Parkside. Parkside is truly a remarkable School with very clear aims and objectives. The School has a quite unique culture with a very happy and healthy atmosphere. This Report from ISI does, I believe, reflect all those qualities and the professionalism and dedication of the Headmaster and his staff. If you have any queries please feel free to contact myself, the headmaster or any of the School Governors. Yours sincerely Graham West May 2010

Suspect Charged With Kidnapping, Murder In Holly Bobo Case
After almost three years of searching for a missing Tennessee nursing student, there are charges in the case.
FOX News Radio's Tonya J. Powers reports:
Audio clip:
29-year-old Zachary Adams is charged with kidnapping and murder in the disappearance of Holly Bobo, who was last seen in April 2011.
Her brother told police she was led into the woods from their home.
Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Director Mark Gwyn says her family is taking it hard.
(Gwyn) "Obviously they're devastated. They've been devastated for three years. But hopefully, this is the beginning of closure for the Bobo family. They deserve that."
Adams was arrested last week in an unrelated case, and is being held without bond.
Gwyn says the investigation is ongoing, but would not give specifics on the whereabouts of Holly Bobo.

Not sure. But he is giving a cactus/succulent workshop, whatever that's going to be, at our Rock Garden Society's April 17 meeting. Our meetings and speaker programs are always open to the public, but the workshop has limited space and will be for members only. Membership is $10 a year. The meeting is at the Hennepin tech college in Brooklyn Park.
