In Earnings Workout, we scrutinize quality of earnings, the balance sheet, the conference call transcript and federal filings in an effort to assess whether a company may be vulnerable to future disappointment. We believe that Watsco's (NYSE:WSO) Q3 results exhibited several red flags.
WSO missed 3Q Street estimates badly on October 20th. The stock price dropped on the earnings miss, but has since rallied strongly. WSO bulls believe a 4.2% yield provides solid support (we note that the dividend payout ratio is approaching 80%) and that a new consumer replacement cycle due to previous deferrals by an overly cautious consumer is inevitable. We would point out that the valuation is quite high with an EV/EBITDA ration of 11X and a forward P/E (FYE December 2012) of 21X.
Watsco, the largest distributor of air conditioning, heating, and refrigeration equipment ("HVAC") reported 3Q11 EPS of $1.02, below the $1.14 consensus. This is Watsco's second consecutive earnings "miss". A lower tax rate (31% vs. 33% in most models) boosted EPS by $0.05. Revenues were $914.0 m, slightly below expectations. HVAC equipment unit growth and increased sales of commercial products were the quarter's highlights, but management acknowledged a "very difficult consumer environment". FY11 EPS guidance was reduced from "above $2.86" to $2.65-$2.75, which infers 4Q guidance of $0.33-$0.43, below Street consensus of $0.41.
Street analysts lowered 4Q and FY12 revenue estimates and now assume FY12 organic sales growth of +2 to +3%, down from +5.5%. An industry survey recently conducted by FBR Capital Markets concluded that there has been continued sales softness in 4Q.
Street analysts also lowered FY12 EPS estimates from $3.49 to $3.14. On the 3Q CC, the CEO made the following comment on FY12 EPS: "I can say that regardless of demand, we have enough strength with offering increasing the product offering in our locations and increasing our vigilance on spending that I'm hoping that when we do get into planning, we'll be able to plan at a minimum of 20% earnings per share growth. That's hope at the moment, they're not plans."
In order to achieve this hoped-for 20% EPS growth, Street analysts are now mostly assuming WSO will acquire an additional 10% of its JV with Carrier in mid-2012, which they estimate will add $0.19 in EPS.
In 3Q, overall revenues increased +12.5% y/y, of which two-thirds of this increase was attributable to new Carrier Jvs. in the Northeast and Mexico. Same-store sales increased +4% y/y (vs. -2% in 2Q). The company acknowledged that sales trends weakened throughout the quarter. Early in 4Q, organic sales are down low-single-digits. On the 3Q CC, management attributed the softness to "weak consumer confidence".
Watsco has an extremely difficult 4Q comparison due to an expiring $1500 tax credit in 2010 that pulled demand forward. Aided by this credit, 4Q10 same-store sales were +17% y/y. Analysts are modeling Q4 same-store sales of -2%. We believe that this may be too optimistic given the tough comp, weakness as described on the CC, a lack of cold weather in the Northeast and continued construction softness.
Gross margins declined 10 bps y/y to 24.0% due to a higher mix of lower margin HVAC equipment sales as compared to higher margin non-equipment sales. SG&A declined to 15.9% from 16.2% y/y. According to the 3Q 10Q, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 gross margins improved 60 basis-points "due to increased selling prices and improved discounts and rebates from vendors, reflecting increased purchasing activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2011." Neither increased selling prices nor improved discounts and rebates from vendors were cited as a factor for Q3 gross margins.
Purchases from Carrier and its affiliates comprised 51%, 48%, 47% and 52% of all purchases made during the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. WSO has three distribution joint ventures with Carrier Corp: one in the SunBelt, another formed April 2011 in the Northeast, and yet another formed July 2011 in Mexico. Carrier receives a 40% minority interest payout for each JV. Carrier Enterprise, LLC ("Carrier Enterprise"), in which Watsco has a 60% controlling interest and Carrier Corporation has a 40% noncontrolling interest, maintains a separate bank-syndicated, secured revolving credit agreement that provides for borrowings of up to $125,000 (raised in July from $75.0 m). According to the 3Q 10Q, "Effective July 1, 2011, Carrier Enterprise's standard payment terms with Carrier for inventory purchases accelerated. At September 30, 2011, $40,000 was outstanding under this revolving credit agreement."
WSO burned $59.0 m in operating cash flow (compared to $96.5 m positive operating cash flow y/y) to fund $70.0 m of incremental vendor payments related to the expiration of favorable up-front payable terms for the Carrier Sunbelt JV (described above) and higher inventory levels "due to our seasonal buildup including the purchase of previously consigned inventory from one of our key suppliers in 2011 for $17.0 million." DSI rose +7 days y/y (to 89 days) while DSO increased +4 days y/y (to 49 days).
Disclosure: I am short WSO.

The report concludes that, "The Obama Administration's campaign to impose this rewritten regulation must be halted and an open, transparent rulemaking that fairly accounts for job and economic impacts must be undertaken."
"It's clear the Obama Administration's efforts to implement this job-destroying coal regulation must be stopped," said House Natural Resources Committee Chairman Hastings. "As highlighted in this report, over 7,000 mining jobs and the economic livelihoods of communities throughout the country are at risk if the Obama Administration imposes this regulation. Millions of taxpayer dollars have already been spent and it would be a further waste of taxpayer dollars to continue with this rulemaking process that was flawed from the very beginning. The Administration has gone to great lengths to withhold information from the public, is refusing to comply with Congressionally issued subpoenas and now won't even comment on the current status of the rewrite. It's up to Congress to stop the Obama Administration from imposing this sweeping new regulation that will destroy jobs, decrease American energy production, increase energy prices and harm our economy."
This week, the House will consider H.R. 3409, the Stop the War on Coal Act. Included in this package is legislation authored by Rep. Bill Johnson (OH-03) that would place a prohibition on the Secretary of the Interior from issuing this regulation.

What a wonderful combination of flavors! I used the sparkling apple juice for this batch; however, I can't wait to try it with champagne. This is a great go-to beverage for a gathering and you can make a batch of each -- one for the kids or guests who prefer non-alcoholic beverages and the other batch with champagne. Made for PRMR, May, 2013.
I made a half batch of this for my Dh and I to use up a bottle of sparkling white grape juice. I loved it, it was tangy and sweet. It was just right. I would love to use it for the next time I need a punch for a gathering.
Yummy Yummy Yummy. This was so refreshing after spending a day trying to clean out the garage. I used the apple juice and shared it with my DK's. I can see this being an awesome punch recipe when added to some lime sherbert. Thanks so much for sharing. Made for Photo Tag.

First, I want to apologize to those who don't live in and around Indy that won't know what I'm refering to. I'll make it short. I was wondering if anyone has heard what is to become of the old terminal once the midfield terminal is opened in late 2008? I have a feeling it will be torn down. Kinda sad if that happens, because Concourse C and the parking garage were built in the 1980's, so they are not that old, so that would be kind of a waste. The inside has been remodeled so much in the last 15 yrs, that too, would be a waste to tear down.
Be nice if it could still be used, but consider the long distance between the old and new ones, it would not make any sense, if there were to be any connection passengers. I think I heard that the Midfield terminal is suppose to have 40 gates. That's not much more than what we have now. Also be nice to see a foreign carrier start service, but I doubt that will happen. Yes, I know that AC Jazz flies to YYZ, but I mean to Europe.
Any info would be great.

This video documents a walk I took in St. Augustine, Florida. It was made for a drawing class concerned with walking and how we experience the world differently on foot than by vehicle. It's a slow method of transportation and takes patience, but rewards curiosity. When I started the walk I didn't really have an idea of what I was doing or if the video would even turn out well, but I experimented and saw some interesting people.
If you like people watching (or pigeons for that matter), I think you'll like the snapshots of public life downtown. I've lived here for four years and I think it's pretty representative of St. Augustine (this part of it at least).
The process for making this video started with me holding the camera while I walked to where there were more people. Once in a more populated area, I watched other people walking. Before this assignment, I never noticed how differently people walk. I found it rather informative. It was strange being in the crowd, but not of it. I mentally made myself invisible even though physically I knew people could see me. Sometimes it was pretty obvious I was filming certain people, but no one seemed to mind or do or say anything about it. Other times, I sat on the ground like the homeless do and became part of the wall. Towards the end, I walked with the camera again and brought the video full circle. It was a nice little adventure that lasted about 2 1/2 hours.

I know also that in Japan a person who sticks out is punished by others. It's really strange. But Japan's education system not only about not expressing your own opinion. Here is some more information about education in Japan https://eduessayhelper.org/blog/education-japan.html
Congrats, Danny! Just wanted to let you know I enjoyed reading your post "How Discovering Japan Changed My Life". It's a long post but extremely inspiring to those who want to learn Japanese and/or move to Japan.
You ask us to share what other Japan blogs we visit. So here goes: There's a slice-of-life blog I like called Japan Australia (whom I featured in http://japaneseup.com/best-japan-blogs/ alongside 25 other Japan bloggers). This is a blog containing useful tips and advice for living in or travelling to Japan.
The blogger is an Aussie who lives and works in Gifu and he has been in Japan for over 12 years. On his blog, he shares his experiences about Japan and highlights the lighter aspects of the country.
I agree

Hope to start seeing some production pics soon!
Haha ye, got myself into the very same situation of being unable to find any job that has to do with my hobbies. So even if there're some benefits making a life of mine easier, it still doesn't make me happy or more close to the dreamed target. I wonder though, how is it going in 2016, still sitting in beautiful Singapore?
Still...I was glad to find this particular post. Coz even if my current job offers me free drinks, toilet & internet only I'm able (due to being top worker in the company) to learn languages/get to know new stuff as the results produced are enough to allow me to work 1h only and do whatever I want:D
Only one drawback is the paycheck & my ambitions -here most of $$$ is spent on food+housing+little to put aside and my ambitions are little, for the thing I do is already mastered. So I'm bored not to mention I got better education than this.
But hey! life is about progress so gotta gain more knowledge and search a way to transfer to Japan (if failed first to Korea/Canada/Taiwan or Singapure).
Good luck for everyone!
This is why we love Asia :)

I just sent the following item to our news desk to post on the "breaking news'' portion of our NFL page and wanted to share this with you quickly. Here it is:
The Atlanta Falcons, suddenly desperate for wide receivers, have signed veteran Marty Booker.
Booker is expected to join the Falcons for practice Thursday. His signing comes the same day the Falcons added veteran receiver Robert Ferguson.
That comes after Harry Douglas, who was projected to be one of Atlanta's top three receivers, was placed on injured reserve with a knee injury. Atlanta's leading receiver, Roddy White, has been holding out of camp in a contract dispute, leaving Michael Jenkins and Brian Finneran as the only experienced receivers.

We have all winter, spring and summer to talk about it and ask questions. We know there are enough of those, so let's start with a few that jump right off the page. Will Alabama repeat as national champions? We'll get to that one.

"Knowing others is wisdom, knowing yourself is enlightenment" — Lao Tzu, ancient Chinese philosopher and founder of Taoism.
* The Center for Michigan broke the story back in 2009 that the Michigan school calendar was shrinking right before parents' eyes. The Legislature subsequently made changes to state law on the subject, but, for the 2012-13 school year, Michigan schools are required only to provide 170 instruction days (180 is the general national mark). But a special state entity created to run struggling schools is under a mandate for 210 school days:
* Coal, like oil, operates off a global market. So, even if U.S. utilities are scaling back use of coal to create electricity, the big trend doesn't change because developing nations are using cheap coal to generate more power:
*Ingham County (Lansing area) is trying to get ahead of unseasonable weather by improving monitoring of populations vulnerable to excessive heat, such as the elderly. The worry is for days above 90 degrees. Weather.com says the average highs in Lansing over mid to late June range from 78 to 82 degrees:
* Only half of the Michigan Legislature — the 110-seat House — is on the ballot this year. Still, there will be plenty of new faces in Lansing in January 2013 thanks to term limits, part of a national trend that leaves legislative bodies with very little experience in the techniques of government:
*Public Policy Polling is known for Democratic leanings. It has a poll out that says, in the generic ballot for the Michigan House this year, 50 percent of voters favor the Dems and just 35 percent the Republicans, who now hold a commanding 64-46 edge in the current House. PPP also says that support is growing for legal recognition of same-sex relationships, something now barred by constitutional amendment in Michigan: 70 percent of Michiganians back either gay marriage or civil unions, PPP says, and that includes 51 percent of Republicans.

N. J, Nov. I. — (UP)—Visiting motorists were still driving by the old Wilson farm today to see the spot where the monsters from Mars didn't land their rocket ship to begin the onslaught against the earth Sunday night. The radio players, in their horrifying "news bulletins" dramatizing | H. G. Wells* story "War of the Worlds." called it the "Wilmuth" farm od Grover's mill, but it sound ed like "Wilson" and since it happened that there is an old Wilson farm here, It became the scene of the catastrophe that didn't happen. This village of 200 peaceful inhabitants, four miles east of princeton, survived the nation-wide hysteria better than most other towns because it was quicker finding out that the Maritans hadn't really come. Out on the Wilson farm, where I three tenant families live, James Anderson and his wife had been listening to the Charlie McCarthy program and Mrs. Anderson had switched over to the Mercury theater program just in time to hear a "bulletin" about a huge meteor falling in her barnyard. She woke her husband, who had retired. He went out on the porch, looked around. "Durn fools," he said, and went back to bed. The rest of the tenants weren't listening to the radio. A neighbor, 83-year-old William Dock, was though, and he endured it until he heard the "bulletins" about the Martian creatures crawling from their rocket ship and laying waste to the countryside. Then he got out his shotgun and went looking for them. The first that Philip Wassun, of Cranberry, five miles east of here. heard of the "invasion" was when he passed a carload of national guardsmen In the road. They asked him the way to the scene of destruction, having heard on the radio that they had been ordered out to fight. "They were all dressed up to kill," he said. "I couldn't convince them it must be a fake and two hours later I saw them still riding around loking for whatever it was sup posed to be. Corp Frank Wilson would like to meet one of the six or eight people who stopped him Sunday night and described in terrifying terms the landing of the space ship that "they personally had witnessed." Some of the hallucinations were blamed to the fact that there was a fire in the forest 15 miles away, and there was a pall of smoke near the village which might have been the work of "Martians." ALTHOUGH HOUNDS LOSE TRAIL- Believe Desperado Slain in Gun Battle Chapman Flees On Foot After SOLOMON WAS A PIKER-HE SHOULD HAVE CONTENDED WITH FATHERS, TOO NEW YORK. Nov. I.—(AP) — Too much realism on the radio, particularly in drama, apparently is to get closer attention around the networks hereafter. Already evidence comes in this statement by W. B. Lewis, ▼ice-president of programs at CBS: "The program department hereafter will not use the technique of a simulated news broadcast within a dramatic- I Hon when the circumstances of the broadcast could cause immediate alarm to numbers of listeners." But just what further possible reaction will result from the Sunday night dramatisation In the Orson Welles program on WABC-CBS of the H. G. Wells story "War of the Worlds" still is crystalizing. Radio row is wondering whether or not one outcome may be an immediate general ban by the broadcasters against "horror" programs of any description. WESTPORT. Conn , Nov. I — (/Pi—Judge Austin Wakeman ascended the bench in probate court today with such a knotty problem in child welfare to solve as once confronted King Solomon—but possibly Judge Wakeman.* task of pronouncing Judgment is the more difficult of the two. The Biblical king once decided the disputed parentage of an infant by awarding the child to the more humane of two wrangling claimants, but the local jurist must decide which of two Westpo. couples may adopt 10-months-old Betty Lou Francis. or. as an alternative, may approve an offer of marriage made to the baby's unwed mother. Claiming the baby are Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Brown, with whom the child is now living and who have exhibited an adoption agreement signed by the servant-girl mother October 17, and Mr. and Mrs. William H. Buttery, who have produced a similar agreement signed October 15. Since the Browns and But-terys brought their case to court, a New York chauffeur has written to Welfare Director Howell F. Fuller, offering to marry the mother. Anna Francis of New York, whom he has never seer.. Although Judge Wakeman did not indicate before court opened whether he would consider the marriage solution, he said he believed the New York man was 'absolutely sincere." Before the marriage offer the mother testified she was "too poor"" to support the blonde, blue-eyed baby. PRESSING ITALIAN PACT- Pal Captured Three Arrested On Charges of Aiding Fugitive Chamberlain Concedes Nazi Dominance THEIR BABY BURNS TO DEATH the Sunday broadcast lf the script and transcription of the program reached Washington before the meeting begins. QUICK REACTION "If we have time and if we have complete data," he said, "we will consider the broadcast today. If we don't get to it, we might put the mater off until next Tuesday. Or perhaps, if the other commissioners are agreeable, we ll hold a special meeting." The broadcast Sunday night was a dramatization of H. G. Wells' fantastic novel "War of the Worlds." The program, directed by Orson Welles, depicted the landing of a space ship from Mars in New Jersey. The announcer, interrupting a "dance program" to broadcast "news bulletins," related how monsters poured from the I space ship and started destroying civilization with death rays. Hundreds of listeners, particularly those who tuned in late, were panic-stricken. The broadcast brought quick re-action from the FCC and congress, ! and apologies from radio officials, j McNinch, ordering the Columbia broadcasting station to send the commission a script and transcription of the hour-long program said, any broadcast that creates such a general panic and fear as this one is reported to have done is, to say the least, regrettable."

Dynamite Used To Rescue Dog Mountaineers Still Believe Animal in Narrow Cavern Construction CLARKSBURG, W. V a., Nov. I—(UP)—A crew of begrimed mountaineers blasted away at Spelter mountain today, unswerving from the confidence that Sport, "community dog," will be rescued from the narrow cavern that has held him 13 days. Sport, a brown and white beagle hound who has gone hunting with almost every resident of Spelter, eight miles from here, was trapped In a fissure on the mountain, presumably while chasing a fox over the treacherous ridges and sink holes. In 24 hours of blasting at the rock mountain side, the crew had tom away two tons. It was estimated that another four or five tons would have to be blown loose before Sport's prison could be reached.

"Geographically, Germany must occupy a dominant position in Cen- J tral and Southeast Europe." the prime minister said. "She does so now. "As far as this country is concerned. we have no wish to block Germany out of these countries or encircle her economically." Chamberlain also told the house that Britain will conclude her friendship agreement with Italy as rapidly as possible and envisaged a presumptive "new era of peace in Europe." He declared he could see no reason why the totalitarian states and democracies can not work together. The agreement would entail British recognition of the Italian conquest of Ethiopia. Chamberlain said a motion will 1 be introduced in the house tonight I "that this house welcomes the in- j tention of the government to bring the Anglo-Italian agreement into force." The motion will be debated tomorrow. Members showed keen interest In the prospects of the debate, which undoubtedly will be lively when the governments critics speak their minds on the government s handling of various European problems. In addition to recognizing the Italian cor quest, Chamberlain intends to recognize the Spanish nationalists as belligerents, as well as loyalists, and is understood to be preparing to open negotiations with Germany on colonies.

After 30 years of working with couples and researching how people repaired their relationships, I suddenly realized that we had really reached a pivotal moment; all our studies, stories, and the science had come together, and we were in the midst of a revolution—a new way of truly understanding romantic love. Finally we can grasp the laws of love—and they make sense!
We have cracked the code of love and have found the pathway to the relationships we long for. You can create a fulfilling, safe-haven relationship, restoring the romantic love bond, beginning now:
1. Abandon the out-of-date idea that love is something that just happens to you.
All the new science tells us that romantic love is no longer a mystery. It makes perfect sense. You can learn its laws. You have more control over this riot of emotion than you think! What you understand, you can shape. The first step is to decide to learn about love and the new science of bonding.

About the Author
H.A. Baker was a missionary who chose the furthest reaches of south-west China as his field of service. He persevered in dedicated service for years, apparently without fruit, until the Holy Spirit came into his life in power. From then on he witnessed one of the most wonderful outpourings of God's Spirit recorded in all of Church history - the subject ofVisions Beyond The Veil. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

As a nag, I wish Baker had included a transcript of the children's words as they told them in Chinese with the English translation.

Shaquille O'Neal celebrated his 39th birthday Sunday.After turning 39 earlier this week, Shaquille O'Neal's next stunt will, maybe appropriately, involve the elderly.
Appearing on Boston sports radio WEEI (850 AM), O'Neal said Thursday that he will visit an elderly complex in the North End on Monday night after residents wrote him a letter asking him to come hang out.
"I get a lot of fan mail and an elderly person wants me to come by their place and hang out with them," said O'Neal. "I accepted, so I think I'll be doing that -- having dinner with the elderly. I don't call them elderly, I'm having dinner with friends. I'm going to eat pizza, play bingo, and do some square dancing."
O'Neal, who's dropped 15 pounds while rehabbing from right foot injuries that have sidelined him since Feb. 1, quickly clarified on the pizza he'll bring.
"I'm bringing low-fat pizza, of course," he said.
Turning more serious, O'Neal said he couldn't offer a timeline on his potential return to action, but said he's been told by Celtics coach Doc Rivers and the training staff to wait until he's 100 percent. After pegging himself at 85 percent on Monday's birthday visit to the Boston Children's Museum, O'Neal playfully deemed himself 84.2271156442222 percent Thursday.
"I can't give you a date because there's a little pain fluctuation," said O'Neal. "I've been told by Doc, [trainer] Ed Lacerte, and Doc Hollywood [team physician] Brian McKeon to not even come talk until I'm 100 percent. I'm working out, shooting, doing light stuff. When the pain is gone, they told me to add three days [then he'll be back.]"
