My spotted cat, you're growing more sedate.
You've quit your ploy designed to startle me-
No longer do you crouch and hide and wait,
Then jump straight up, defying gravity.
When I contrive a sudden thump or scrape,
You don't pretend stark terror any more
And feign a frantic effort to escape,
With futile pawing on the polished floor.
You are less rakish now, and you subdue
The fervor of your romps. You seem to sense
That gentler attributes become you too.
That lovingness brings loving recompense.
I too am more subdued and gentler now.
Our summers wane, small friend; our arbors bow.

Last year I wrote a short article about Sturm, Ruger & Company (NYSE:RGR) in which I concluded that, while the company is a good company and is delivering a good return on its capital, the price of the stock was higher than I thought it was worth. A good company bought at a bad price can spell disaster for any investor.
Since publishing that article, RGR moved from $60 to $80 and then back down to $50 - quite a ride! A drop in earnings brought on the final decline in price, which in turn was due to a drop in overall gun demand. In last year's article, I mentioned the fact that the gun market was saturated and that the demand for guns would not continue to grow at double-digit rates. Not only did gun sales slow, they declined.
In this article I would like to explore another facet of Ruger and how it will affect their earnings and stock price for some time to come - depreciation. That's right - boring depreciation.
I can hear the groans coming from you readers. After all, who cares about depreciation? Isn't it just another non-cash expense that can be ignored?
There are already numerous articles on SA and on many other sites explaining the importance of depreciation. The most one can do when adjusting depreciation is to use capital expenditures instead. This is why many investors use FCF instead of reported earnings, a method I personally use. There are even some investors who work out how much of CapEx is spent on maintenance as opposed to growth and use the maintenance CapEx as the depreciation expense. However, using EBITDA is a definite no-no. See what Warren Buffett has to say about EBITDA here.
Putting aside the fact that management at Ruger uses EBITDA in their reports as a metric (button up those wallets), something Warren Buffett opines to be misleading, they also tell us what useful lives they estimate their assets to have in determining the depreciation expense. This is important for our topic.
Before going further let's make sure that we all have a general understanding of depreciation. According to Investopedia depreciation is defined as -
A method of allocating the cost of a tangible asset over their useful life. Businesses depreciate long-term assets for both tax and accounting purposes.
Since depreciation is determined by the useful life of the asset and that estimate is left to management, this logically leaves management to determine the depreciation expense. This means that depreciation is one of the items that management can fudge or tweak. In other words, it's an expense that has no hard number, allowing management more leeway in accounting for it.
When reading the annual report for Ruger last year, I noticed that they depreciated their building over 15 years. I noted that 15 years for a building was a bit too fast but didn't give it much more thought. However, since then I've read Security Analysis by Benjamin Graham and David Dodd. In Chapter 34 entitled "The Relation of Depreciation & Similar Charges to Earning Power" (Security Analysis, 2nd Ed., 1940 pg. 445) Ben Graham teaches the reader to determine if the depreciation expense is adequate, too small or too large. He notes that this is important in determining the true earnings of the enterprise in question.
While reading this chapter, I found myself thinking of RGR and their 15-year life for their buildings. Does 15 years really reflect the useful life of a building? Walking down 5th avenue in NYC you will see many building that have been standing for well over 50 years, some even knocking at their 100 yr. mark. Sure some improvements have been made and repairs have been needed. But these are capital expenses that have been added to the assets value and depreciated over the time of their useful lives! Other manufacturing companies that I have looked into all seem to depreciate their buildings over a period of ~40 years.
Graham continues and points out that not only will depreciation affect how we determine profits but also how we measure the earnings against assets or capital. If a company uses a smaller number of years to depreciate its assets then, in later years, it will appear as if the companies ROA or ROC is greater than it really is, thus misleading investors.
A look at Ruger can confirm this. Using their 5 yr. averages RGR has a ROC (EBIT/Working Capital+Net PP&E) of 74%. I wonder what this number might be if Ruger's depreciation policy matched its peers.
The fact that in the last 10 years RGR's earnings have gone up tremendously isn't surprising when you learn that they bought their last building about 20 years ago. Couple the fact that gun sales have shot up over the last 6 years with the fact that RGR depreciation expense for their buildings went to nil and you will end up with a nice boost in earnings.
A better way for investors to try to gauge just how well RGR is really doing would be to use the average FCF for at least the last 5 years. (Since their depreciation expense is inadequate we have no way of calculating how much of CapEx is for maintenance. Therefore the best solution is to use the average FCF to arrive at a more realistic ROC.) Using Ruger's average FCF and average capital for the last 5 years we arrive at a ROC of 21%. While this is still a good ROC, when compared with their reported 5 yr. avg. ROC of 74%, a drop of ~5,300 basis points, we begin to see how big of a difference these adjustments can make.
(The above calculation is based on the reported PP&E. However, since Ruger's depreciation has been inadequate it is very possible that their PP&E is understated. If that is true then even the ROC we calculated above may be too high. If one goes back far enough they may be able to calculate what the PP&E would be if more realistic useful-life estimates had been used. However, such an endeavor would be extremely time consuming and beyond the scope of this article.)
Quickly depreciating assets is a double-edge sword. Now that RGR has a new facility in Mayodan, NC, their depreciation expense will shoot up and create a sense of falling earnings even if they do well. For the next few years (about 15) we can expect RGR to have a harder time showing growth in their earnings, even if we see a rise in gun sales. This is due to the bigger depreciation expense they will have to recognize due to their purchase of their new Mayodan facility.
In my opinion Ruger is misleading investors. They know that most people don't pay attention to small details such as the rate of deprecation. Investors should be aware that it is these small accounting details that can make all the difference. And even in the case that such adjustments don't change the numbers significantly, there is still the matter of management trying to pull the wool over shareholders' eyes.

Speed Up Your WordPress Hosting Blog to get a higher Google rank infographic
There are more than 75 million web sites across the globe powered by WordPress, making the CMS easily one of the world's most popular web publishing platforms. Many of these blogs tend to drag along like snails trying to climb up a 60% grade. Is your WordPress blog and WordPress Hosting one of these?
Does it seem to take forever for your WordPress blog to load and change pages? Do you find that it's slow to load, slow to refresh, and slow to use? If so, you are not alone!
This is a very common problem, and it is usually easy to fix. This slowness can be due to any number of factors, such as having too many plug-ins installed or having plug-ins improperly-installed, or having inadequate hosting bandwidth to meet the demands of your web site.
You can make modest changes to your WordPress Hosting installation to help improve the performance of your site, though, so don't think this is just the price you pay for using WordPress.
You can measure your speed with GTmetrix have a look at the GTmatrix (Pagespeed and Y-Slow) score of our own website:
WordPress is very flexible and intuitive, but there are many aspects of the site that are automatically enabled but not used. The infographic below, which is provided to us by the fine folks at WhoIsHostingThis, will lay out for you some of the things you can do to try improving your site's performance without breaking the bank.

Excess padding / margin in ChromeAsked by benzy16 on February 28, 2014 at 04:21 AM
I've created a form which fits into a box on my new responsive site (still on testing server) but in chrome it has a large space at the bottom of the form and I can't figure it out, my additional css is pretty clean as far as I can see i'm not sure why this happens as it seems to only be on chrome.
.form-line {
padding-bottom: -1px;
padding-top: -1px;
.form-all {
margin-top: 0px;
padding-top: 0px;
padding-bottom: 0px;
margin-bottom: 0px;}
.form-submit-button {
padding-bottom: 0px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
padding-top: 0px;
margin-top: 0px; }
JotForm Founder
I see the problem and I opened a ticket about this.
For now, if it bothers you a lot you can use the iframe code instead. The height can be modified on the embed code.
Thank you for getting back so quickly
I have tried the iframe and unfortunately it appears to be unsuitable for our set up, it show up as an empty box so back to the drawing board!
Could you please confirm if you managed to fix the issue of the space at the bottom of your form? I checked it using chrome and it does not show the extra space anymore:
Inform us if you still need assistance with this inquiry.
Just checked and its definatly still showing for me, cleared my cache as well so its not fixed yet.
JotForm Support
Can you please try the following iFrame to see if it fits right?
<iframe id="JotFormIFrame" onload="window.parent.scrollTo(0,0)" allowtransparency="true" src="//form.jotformeu.com/form/40512894292356" frameborder="0" style="width:100%; height:670px; border:none;" scrolling="no"></iframe>
It looks fine when I test it with Chrome Browser Web Development Tools:
It worked! But now IE has some extra padding! It can never be simple with browsers can it!
JotForm Support
Can you please tell us which version of IE browser you have encountered the issue.
I checked it on my IE9 browser and it appears like this
I can see that compared to Chrome view, the one in IE9 do have "a bit more" spacing at at the bottom. BUT you can agree that this is very minimal, which could be due to different browser's code.
You can also try injecting CSS code on the form to dictate a specific height for it.
Example, you can try CSS code like this.
height: 670px !important;
Any IE padding issues aside I now have the issue that the submit button does not show on my iPhone browser as the form box cuts off before it is shown
I now have the issue that the submit button does not show on my iPhone browser as the form box cuts off before it is shown
Request you to please create a separate thread with regards on your response for further assistance.
But this issue is caused by the iframe fix that Mike provided so we need a solution that appeases Chrome but doesn't cause an iPhone Safari issue
JotForm Support
That is true.
This thread has an open ticket, and we want to resolve the problem aside from the workaround Mike provided.
We are all eager to help resolve it, but we cannot do it on this thread, but we have a reference, so opening a new thread will help us resolve the issue quicker.

Food was really good great selection of tapas with very good service
(**** 23 February 2017 by AM from Northampton
Great food but shocking service. Waited in the doorway upon arrival for nearly 10 minutes prior to been greeted by a rude barman who mumbled at us. We had booked a table after all and the place wasnt mega busy. We were then seated right next to the door which created a cold draught when people came in and out, and we're sat within inches of the neighbouring diners so we're forced to listen to their loud conservation all evening.
Further 10 minute wait for drinks which were rudely slammed down on the table by the barman. We were on the verge of leaving just as the waitress arrived to finally take the order.
The food arrived within a reasonable time and was really nice. Had to wait a further 10 minutes to pay the bill despite sitting with the payment card ready when it arrived. Staff ignored us and preferred to wipe empty tables. My friend had to go up to the member of staff that brought the bill and ask to pay! Appalling lack of service and manners.
An unenjoyable experience due to extremely inattentive service. I've been here several times in the past and had good service so things have obviously gone down hill. I won't be going back any time soon.
(**** 23 February 2017 by Kerry Tiller from Leighton Buzzard
Awful. Left waiting to be seater for 10 minutes at the door.
There was an extremely noisy table behind us and we couldn't hear ourselves talk.
The food arrived and it was only half the order, so they had to go and cook the rest.
We were told one thing had sold out by the waiter and then it turned up.
When we spoke to the superviser at the end of the meal to complain it was all she could do to apologise.

we like to have tapas and ordered 7 dishes between the two of us. This would normally leave us full but the portions were quite small and left us still hungry; ironically the puddings were the best part of the meal so it finished on a good note.

Opensuse Build Service 1.0: Open Teamwork
The Novell sponsored Opensuse project has released version 1.0 of its build service in a step that will make working on software packages for the distribution much easier for external developers.
Developers can create a branch of the official factory package, use the build service to create a version and hand in the results to the package's official maintainer. If the maintainer does not have time to consider the package, it does not become obsolete, but is referenced by future builds.
"This is the first time that external developers have been able to collaborate with us on the distribution by sending package changes to maintainers", says Suse employee Klaas Freitag, and Build Service architect, explaining the changes. To help support communications in this collaborative environment, the build service also has new submission and notification functions.
The updated Build Service runs on the build.opensuse.org website. The GPL-licensed source code is available from Novell Forge. Binary packages for various Suse versions are also available.

UPDATE: Check out our newly compiled list of the top ten essential iPhone apps.
iPhone owners. They love blowing into their little piece of gadgety heaven to make a flutey noise, but get outraged at an app that tests their prowess at holding down a button, as long as possible. (Not that we think it sounds awesome either, but hey, these people read the app summary, then downloaded the app. Don't blame the app.)
Anyway, Rightmobilephone.co.uk has just published the results of a survey they did, of 987 website vistors who owned iPhones, incidentally the consumer gadget of the year at a whole bunch of awards (including ours). The question - most useful, and most pointless iPhone apps?
The popular iPhone applications83% of users rated Ocarina tops, with Facebook and Google Earth pacing a reasonable second and third place. We personally love Bump, which lets two iPhones exchange contact info when their owners 'bump' the two together. God, it's almost too cute.
In order of usefulness:
1 Ocarina2 Facebook3 Google Earth4 Tweetie 25 Print and Share6 Skype7 Quickoffice Mobile Office Suite8 Bump9 Brushes10 Shrek Kart
The unpopular iPhones So 57% of iPhone users found button-holding app 'Hold On' 'not fun and slightly pointless'. But just slightly. Earthquake severity measure app Seismometer wasn't very popular either, with three in five people agreeing that if they where unfortunate enough to be experiencing an earthquake, the first priority would be survival. Can't argue there.

Oscar Nominees: Before They Were Famous (PHOTOS)
And this year's batch of Academy Award nominees are no exception. Sure, after decades in the spotlight, A-list acting nominees like Robert De Niro, Sally Field and Denzel Washington are so recognizable that they might stop traffic a mile away.
So as the countdown to the Oscars ceremony (five weeks!) continues, Celebuzz takes a trip back in time to see what this year's crop of nominees looked like before they hit the big time.
Tommy Lee Jones just as distinguished decades before Lincoln? Was Jennifer Lawrence already breaking hearts as a pre-teen? Did Anne Hathaway always have her movie star good looks?
For a blast from the past, take a gander at the gallery and see if you can guess the Oscar nominee from their pre-fame photos.

Terracotta tiles bring instant warmth and rustic charm to any interior, whether for a cement floor or a kitchen backsplash, Installing tiles can be an expensive and time-consuming process. Fortunately you can create the look of ceramic tile with a simple faux finish technique. The key to realistic faux ceramic tile is selecting a color that resembles terracotta. A fast coat of glaze with give your faux tile the natural distressed look of a well-worn surface.
Things You'll Need
- Low-tack painters tape, 2 inches wide and ¼ inch wide
- Latex primer
- Tint, black, burnt sienna, white
- 2-inch flat brush
- Roller
- Paint pan
- Tape measure
- Pencil
- Latex paint, terracotta color in satin finish
- Latex glazing medium
- Rags
Mix black tint into the primer to make a color that resembles grout. Tape around the perimeter of the area to be faux finished with 2-inch wide low-tack painters tape. Paint around the edges with the brush. Fill in the rest of the area with the paint roller. Allow the primer to dry for at least 24 hours.
Use a tape measure and pencil to mark out an even grid for the faux ceramic tiles. Place strips of ¼ inch tape in between the squares of the grid to make a faux grout line when the tape is later removed.
Paint the entire surface with paint in a color that resembles terracotta. Use either a brush or a roller, depending on the size of the surface. Apply two coats of paint for full coverage.
Mix latex glazing medium with tints. Glaze should be slightly lighter of darker than the terracotta paint, depending on your preference. Use burnt sienna tint mixed with a little bit of black tint to make a darker glaze. Mix white tint with burnt sienna tint to make a lighter glaze.
Brush the glaze on in sections of approximately four tiles. Create a mottled effect by dabbing and rubbing the surface with bunches of rags. Glaze the entire surface, applying and distressing each area before continuing on to the next section. Allow the glaze to dry overnight before removing the tape.
Tips & Warnings
- Protect the faux ceramic tile surface with a coat of clear varnish.

Planning an evaluation of local adaptations in quality improvement efforts in medical care
Under this contract, quality improvement experts will develop a plan to evaluate local adaptations in medical care quality improvement (QI ). Local adaptations are important to the success of many QI efforts, yet they are seldom described in enough detail that they can be shared widely, compared systematically, or assessed for their potential to achieve QI aims in other organizations and patient groups. This contract will help the Foundation to identify prevalent and important local QI adaptations, which can then be evaluated formally for their impact on practice. The contractor will assess the feasibility of such an effort for a variety of QI networks, including a variety of Foundation programs, the Northern New England Cardiovascular Disease Study Group, Veterans Administration, Institute for Healthcare Improvement, and High Value Health Collaborative. The contractor will explore the feasibility of various measurement and data-collection strategies. The primary deliverables will be a full proposal to evaluate local adaptations on a variety of QI topics, a presentation on progress during a November 2011 meeting, and a presentation of findings to interested Foundation staff and grantees.

text: ZZZZZZZ. You also want to defend and justify the killings of anarchists too, or endorse them? You may aswell when you come out with writing like this. It would not be the first time I have heard it. Marxist-Leninists, true heroes of the working people, killing any working people who do not like them or their glorious leader Stalin who I might add whilst the topic came up on the Spanish civil war, really helped those anarchists "throw away the revolution" as you put it BY KILLING A TON OF THEM AND HELPING THE FUCKING FASCIST. Communists believe that anarchists are the enemies of the revolution? And you speak for all communists/marxist now? Not all marxists follow what you do, and I really do not believe that Marx would like it either, in fact i'm convinced he wouldn't. Remember this - workers make the revolution, not fucking Stalin or anyone else, none of this shit even matter to working people today they don't give a fuck and won't be "won over" by preaching to them about Stalin or the socialist bastion of hope fucking North Korea. Yeah, there are differences between marxists and anarchists, but what you fail to understand is that there are obviously many similarities, the obvious thing to do is to work towards the common goal of helping the workers in class struggle. That is it. I cannot stand it when I see these views which just completely throw aside all of the efforts, contributions and sacrifices by anarchists and make claims like anarchists are not real socialists and are the apparent "real enemies of marxism". What "marxism" is this exactly? One which endorsed killing other workers who are organizing and trying to help in class struggle? That's not marxism. No communist would kill workers and neither should they. I mean fucking seriously, what is next what you are going to come out with? That we are wanting jewish domination of the world and the destruction of the white race? Keeping on with these age old problems and arguments in this manner is not helping anything.

VirSyn Releases Version 2 of CUBE Software Synthesizer
Beginning today, VirSyn has started shipping CUBE 2, the successor of the software synthesizer CUBE.
CUBE 2 is a musical instrument and tool for sound designers who wish to have instant access to all principal components sounds are built from. Every sound can be decomposed in a sine spectrum representing the harmonic and inharmonic partials and a residual noise spectrum for the noise components. The spatial character of a sound can be represented by a pan spectrum. The temporal evolution of these three spectra is a very convenient way to describe every sound. CUBE 2 is built around this model and allows you to manipulate the structure of a sound with all its components in a comfortable and musical way.
The main new feature of CUBE 2 is the ability to manipulate the analyzed sound spectra in a variety of musically useful ways: Imagine for example drawing a comb filter structure freely into the spectrum. And you can do this not only in the sine spectrum, but also with the residual noise spectrum and the stereo panning. The analyzer of CUBE 2 improved a lot and allows now specialized algorithms for different types of sounds. This includes harmonic / inharmonic and noisy sound types. The new residual noise generator of CUBE 2 allows you to create evolving noise spectra in a way which wasn't possible before.
Some of the new features of CUBE 2 include:
- Improved Spectral analyzer with selectable algorithms optimized for different sound types
- 600 ready to use presets
- Graphical editor for direct manipulation of the spectral and spatial structure of the sound.
- Improved morphing algorithm
- Residual noise generator
- Volume envelope now independent from the Morph envelopes
- Switch off morph envelopes for manual morph control
- Modulation range for morph modulation added
- New modulation sources "Breath" and "Expression"
- Editor for MIDI assignment of user interface controllers
- Legato mode for monophonic sounds
- Reset function for source edits and resynth sources.
System requirements:
- Mac G4 > 400 Mhz
- PC Pentium III > 600 Mhz
- Athlon XP/MP
- Mac OX 10.2 / WinXP
Registered users that purchased CUBE 1 after December 31, 2004 can order the upgrade for 15 Euro. Other registered users of version 1 can updated for 79 Euro. Users of TERA, CUBE, and CANTOR are eligible for the 15 Euro upgrade as well, no matter when they purchased CUBE 1. Demo versions for both Windows and Mac are available.

The Ash Pattern Generator Search program, more commonly known as apgsearch, is an automated search program created by Adam P. Goucher. It generates 16x16 soups and runs them until stabilization, recording any resulting still lifes, oscillators, spaceships, periodic linear infinite growth patterns, and "unusual growth" patterns. Version 1.x and later upload the results to the online database Catagolue.
Python versions
Two versions of apgsearch, versions 0.x and 1.x, were written in Python for use in Golly.
Version 0.x
apgsearch v0.x was the initial version of the script, first published on September 8, 2014. When running the script, the user is first prompted to enter the number of soups to be searched, the rule under which to search, and the initial seed for soup generation. The script proceeds to search soups in sets of 100 until either the specified number of soups has been exceeded, or the user stops the search by pressing <q>. After the search finishes, Golly opens an HTML window which displays the results.[1] Aidan F. Pierce modified this version to allow soup-searching non-totalistic Life-like cellular automata, and made a later modification to allow the results to be uploaded to Catagolue.
Version 1.x
apgsearch v1.x was first released on February 20, 2015. The main improvements from version 0.x are the ability to search symmetrical soups and the periodic uploading of results to Catagolue.[2] apgsearch 1.x supports a variety of different symmetries.
C++ versions
Two versions of apgsearch, versions 2.x and 3.x, were written in C++. These versions are much faster, and are intended to be run from the command line of a Unix shell.
Version 2.x
apgsearch v2.x, codenamed apgnano, was first published on July 19, 2015 and released onto the conwaylife.com forums on July 28. It uses a bespoke algorithm called Life128, written in assembly language for speed, and can utilize both the SSE2 and AVX1 instructions sets on x86_64 CPUs. It can only run searches under asymmetric Life.[3]
Version 3.x
apgsearch v3.x, codenamed apgmera, was first published on March 3, 2016 and released onto the conwaylife.com forums on March 19. Unlike version 2.x, it supports arbitary outer-totalistic rules, as well as the full range of symmetries from apgsearch 1.1. It can use the AVX2 instruction set on x86_64 CPUs if available.
Although the main program is written in C++, version 3.x contains a shell script and a Python file to generate assembly code for different rules and symmetries.[4]

Recipe from Robin to the Rescue
I like to serve the dish with rigatoni tossed in a little olive oil and seasoned with salt and black pepper. For easy cleanup, pound the chicken between two pieces of plastic wrap or in a plastic bag (use the flat side of a meat mallet, the bottom of a heavy skillet, or a rolling pin to pound the chicken).
Total Time: 20-25 minutes
Prep time: 10-15 minutes
Active cooking time:
10 minutes
Serves 4
• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, pounded to a 1/2-Inch thickness
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2 cup dry white wine or dry vermouth
• One 14-ounce can diced tomatoes, undrained
• 1/2 cup sliced pimiento-stuffed green olives
• 1/4 cup golden raisins
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1. Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper. Place the flour in a shallow dish, add the chicken, and turn to coat evenly. Tap off any excess flour.
2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Add the wine and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, olives, raisins, vinegar, and oregano and bring to a simmer. Partially cover the skillet and simmer until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, sprinkle with the basil, and serve.
