With India's economic growth positioned to outpace other emerging markets, and promises of reform, it remains attractive.
So says EGA Emerging Global Advisors, which held a conference call just now to explain five reasons it thinks India — and three of its exchange-traded funds — are worth investor attention.
Chief among the reasons to like India: its economic growth, as measured by GDP, is expected to outpace that of China and all emerging markets — for years. In addition, reform boosts investor confidence, and has contributed to outperformance that should continue, says Nicholas Smithie, chief investment strategist at EGA. Fiscal and monetary discipline in India, combined with lower oil prices, is helping to reduce deficits.
Corporate earnings estimates are moving higher, and that's a reason to pay higher multiples for India stocks, Smithie says. At the same time, price-to-earnings multiples are reasonable, he added, relative to India's market history, other markets and profit growth. The MSCI India index is up more than 7% this year compared to a flat performance for emerging markets overall, but India's price-to-earnings ratio relative to earnings growth, at 1.5 times, is below that of emerging markets overall at 1.7 times, according to EGA data.
That said, the PEG ratios for Peru, Brazil, Thailand, Korea, Chile, Indonesia, the United Arab Emirates and Mexico are lower than India's. But the U.S. market has a PEG ratio of 2.1 times. And the Philippines, Qatar and Poland have richer PEG ratios than India.
Even with a budget that disappointed some, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's reforms are only starting to take root. Among them: increased foreign direct investment, deregulating diesel prices, privatizations, land acquisitions and improving the coal and power sectors.
The caveats have always been currency risk and India's twin deficits. The rupee has strengthened against the dollar. The lower price of oil and better fiscal management, including cutting government subsidies, are helping to reduce the fiscal deficit. India is also focused on managing inflation, which helps the central bank to economic growth looks promising, Smithie says.
UPDATED: EGShares, which is focused on emerging markets and indexed products to play them, has three funds focused on India themes. The EGShares India Consumer ETF (INCO) is the only India ETF with a five-star Morningstar rating. It is up more than 14% so far this year, while the EGShares India Infrastructure ETF (INXX) is up 4.3% and the EGShares India Small Cap ETF (SCIN) is up 4.1%. Investors should be aware that these funds are small — with less than $100 million in market capitalization apiece — compared to other India ETFs including the iShares MSCI India ETF (INDA), with a market value of more than $3.3 billion.
Emerging market portfolio strategist and India specialist Gaurav Mallik offers his thoughts on the $290 billion Indian budget unveiled Saturday.
With more money invested in infrastructure, Mallik, at State Street Global Advisors, remains positive on domestic consumption and global exporters. But he thinks the stock market make take a breather, trading sideways, as the details unfold.
Some headlines in developing markets on the last U.S. trading day of 2014:
India: The S&P BSE Sensex Index completed 2014 with a nearly 30% increase, the best stock market performance among the world's 20 biggest markets after China's 53% spike, Bloomberg reports. The index rose 0.4 percent to 27,499.42 in its final day of 2014. Foreigners pumped $16 billion into India equities on prospects for reform under Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Some India funds performed nearly as well as China: iShares MSCI India Small Cap ETF (SMIN) rose 49% this year, and the EGShares India Consumer ETF (INCO) was slightly lower in recent trading but is up 45% this year. The Wisdom Tree India Earnings Fund (EPI) underperformed the index, up 27%.
A real-estate firm backed by wealthy investors in the U.S., Germany and Israel joins other firms investing in India's real estate. Boston-based Taurus Investment Holdings plans to spend $200 million over three years on offices, shops and a hotel in the southwest state of Kerala. An existing business park there is home to 300 tech firms including Infosys (INFY) and Oracle India, The Wall Street Journal's Inda RealTime reports. More reading in our Tuesday post on India's Sensex Index, social media and corruption.
The Middle East: Saudi Arabia's ailing King Abdullah, who is 90, was taken to the hospital for medical checks, Bloomberg reports. The apparently unscheduled visit comes as oil prices crater; the kingdom is the world's biggest oil exporter. The Saudis plan to open their stock market to foreign investors in 2015. The Wisdom Tree Middle East Dividend Fund (GULF) is down 0.3% this morning; the fund is up 2.5% in 2014.
Russia: President Vladimir Putin praised Crimea's "return home" a day after domestic protests over a trumped-up trial that condemned a Kremlin critic. The Market Vectors Russia ETF (RSX) is down 4% this morning.
"Love for one's motherland is one of the most powerful and uplifting feelings," Putin said, as quoted by Reuters.
China: The Shanghai Composite index ended the year up 53%. See Barron's end-of-the-year summary of Asia markets written by colleague Shuli Ren in Hong Kong. The Market Vectors China ETF (PEK) rose more than 45% this year and was up 3.6% in recent U.S. trading.
For global consumer brands, a statistic stands out: over the past five years, foodservice demand in emerging markets has averaged 11% annual growth, four times the growth in developed markets.
In a recent note, the BernsteinResearch team covering the food, restaurant, beverage and household goods industries observed that this growth gap between the developed and emerging market consumer will persist as "middle-class populations in emerging Asia, Europe, and Latin America continue to climb the ladder of discretionary spending." But:
"[Some] developed countries and emerging economies have started to show signs of deceleration. From here the pace and breadth of global growth will dictate the fortunes of many companies … While the U.S. remains the single largest market for most of the restaurant, food, household products and beverage companies under our coverage, these companies are increasingly pinning their fortunes to international growth."
Bernstein's observations: In Latin America, the Mexican economy grew while the Brazilian economy shrank. Similarly, retail sales grew in Mexico but declined in Brazil. The trends are favoring spice company McCormick, whose emerging market concentration is in Mexico, but hurt Avon, concentrated in Brazil, but also exposed to Russia. Avon shares are down 45% this year, while McCormick shares are up 11%. In China, the economy slowed slightly in the third quarter and nominal income growth slowed by 50 basis points to 8.5%. Consumer confidence was up and unemployment remained low at 4.1%. Yum Brands is the big play; the stock is down about 3% this year.
Here's a table of large U.S. consumer brands with emerging market exposure, ranked on the percentage of 2013 sales in Russia, where Pepsi and Avon had the most exposure.

Mexico's GDP showed a healthy climb for October given its tethering to the strengthening U.S. economy.
"The outlook looks good for Mexico in 2015: Mexican domestic demand is improving, and the U.S. economy is likewise on track for real GDP growth of more than 3 percent as lower oil prices boost consumer spending power across North America," says William Adams, senior international economist for PNC Financial Services Group.
Adams reports:
"The global indicator of economic activity (IGAE), Mexico's monthly proxy for real GDP growth, rose a strong 0.6 percent in October from September. Tertiary sector (services) output rose 0.7 percent, while secondary sector (industry) output rose 0.3 percent; primary sector production (agriculture) was down 2 percent after strong growth in the first half of 2014. In year-ago terms, the IGAE index rose 2.5 percent in October, with services output up 3.0 percent industrial output up 2.1 percent, and agricultural output down 1.9 percent.
While [versus] the year-ago increase … Mexican monthly GDP slowed in October, some of this is from unfavorable base comparisons; October 2013′s monthly GDP grew 0.5 percent faster in year ago terms [than] the preceding month and 1.4 percent faster than the subsequent month. Mexican real GDP growth is trending over 3 percent, mirroring the pickup in U.S. growth in 2014."
In U.S. trading, shares of Mexican construction holding company Empresas ICA (ICA) climbed 2.8%. Retailers are also higher, with Wal-Mart de Mexico (WMMVY), El Puerto de Liverpool (LIVEPOL1.Mexico) and Grupo Bimbo (GRBMF) each up about 1%. America Movil (AMX) is slightly higher, while shares of Coca-Cola Femsa (KOF), Fomento Economico Mexicano (FMX) and Cemex (CX) are trading lower. The iShares MSCI Mexico Capped ETF (EWW) is down 0.2% in afternoon trading.
While contemplating a flight to Cuba for a cigar, consider the already-functioning skies over Latin America.
The near-term prospects for airlines are improving with the lower price of oil — down about 40% this year — ergo the lower price of fuel. The result: a potential 40% jump in 2015 margins is possible. Credit Suisse Analysts Bruno Savaris and Felipe Vinagre note that fuel accounts for 35%-40% of airlines' revenues in their Latin America coverage, and better margins should show up in starting in the first quarter.
In a note out Thursday, Credit Suisse upgraded Brazil Airline Gol Linhas Aereas Inteligentes (GOL) to Outperform from Neutral, with a Real 20 price target. Credit Suisse maintains its Outperform rating on Panama-based airline operator Copa Holdings (CPA) and downgraded Chile's Latam Airlines Group (LFL) to Neutral from Outperform.
Gol shares rose more than 1% Friday and is up 14% this year. Copa shares also rose 1%, but have lost 38% of their value this year. Latam Airlines rose 1.7% to $11.44, but that stock is down 30% this year. Credit Suisse lowered its target price on Latam Air to $13 from $24.
Here are abbreviated comments from Credit Suisse on each of the names:
"GOL is the chosen one … 1) Balanced supply/demand; (2) lower fuel prices; and (3) … efforts to boost unitary revenues and maintain CASK ex-fuel under control should lead to strong operational momentum. Being almost a pure-play in the Brazilian market and having its equity value accounting for only 22% of its enterprise value, enhances even further the upside risk to equity holders. … For 2015, GOL could deliver an Ebit of R$918 million(~9.2% margin), which is 25% ahead of consensus R$733 million estimate (~7.0% margin).
Copa is still a sound investment … although earnings momentum should be weak during the next 4 quarters, with the lower fuel prices, Copa could announce a slight improvement in its preliminary guidance for 2015, which pointed to a 15%-17% Ebit margin. … Nonetheless, we reduce Copa's target price to $140/share as we take a more cautious stance of capacity growth over the coming years given the weaker economic prospects for Latin America.
Latam Airlines …also benefits from a healthier Brazilian airline market (~30% of its passenger revenues) and lower fuel prices, the after-merger challenge is proving to be longer and costlier than initially planned. Ebit margins surprised to the downside in 2014 also impacted by the World Cup in Brazil, besides the tough competition on cargo and international routes. At this point, we adopt a more cautious stance on management's guidance for $650 million of cost cutting over the next four years."
And about that trip to Cuba: investors in the Herzfeld Caribbean Basin closed-end fund (CUBA) may be able to rent a charter with their 67% windfall this week; the fund jumped another 26% Friday, a day after surging when the U.S. said it was opening the door to trade with Cuba. See "Cuba Releases U.S. Prisoner: Is It About Venezuela And Oil?"
Also see colleague Chris Dieterich's post, "Cuba Closed-End Fund Surges More Than 40% on Diplomatic Breakthrough." Among the fund's holdings that could benefit from the lifting of U.S. sanctions against Cuba is airline Copa.
Mexico's Grupo Bimbo on Thursday announced the acquisition of a Canadian bakery unit for approximately $103.4 million in cash.
Grupo Bimbo (GRBMF and BIMBOA.Mexico) makes, sells or trades bread, cookies, cakes, candies, chocolates, snacks, tortillas, processed foods and salted snacks. The Saputo bakery unit purchased produces mostly sweet baked goods. Citi likes the purchase valuation, and sees the acquisition dovetailing with new Canadian operations.
Citi recently upgraded Bimbo shares to Buy on Canada growth prospects and improving profitability in Latin America. Analysts Alexander Robarts and Sergio Matsumoto write:
We estimate a transaction multiple of 8.4x trailing Ebitda. That compares favorably with Canada Bread's 9.4x and is well below Bimbo's own trailing multiple. We estimate Saputo Bakery had LTM [last 12 months] sales and EBITDA of C$143 million ($123.3 million) and C$14.3 million ($12.3 million), respectively (10% Ebitda margin), and would add 0.8% and 0.7%, respectively, to Bimbo's consolidated figures. The parent, Saputo Inc., will now sell dairy exclusively, as the bakery represented 2% of group sales. The transaction is pending regulatory approval and is expected to close in February 2015. We note that the Canada Bread's acquisition required both the anti-trust and Industry Canada's approvals.
U.S-traded shares of Grupo Bimbo, up nearly 5% today headed into the close, riding the broader market rally, but have jumped ahead of other Mexico stocks today. The iShares MSCI Mexico ETF (EWW) has rallied 4% today. The stock has tumbled about 12% this year, while the Mexico ETF is down 13%.
Citi has a target price of Pesos 40 ($2.74). The U.S.-traded shares were recently trading at $2.68.
Growth prospects for Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar — at the expense of China — is the subject of the latest Barron's cover story. Bangladesh could be part of the emerging group.
But the history of Bangladesh "and traditional trade patterns tie it more to India and the rest of the subcontinent," writes colleague Leslie Norton. She adds:
" … The garment industry was growing rapidly in Bangladesh until a series of horrific accidents, including a factory collapse last year, exposed shoddy labor-safety practices. Export growth plunged, from 27.8% in 2011 to 1.6% in 2012. Foreign investment shriveled, too. Yet, the worst seems to be over, as factory inspections were stepped up and foreign companies committed to safety upgrades. Companies such as Gap (GPS), J.C. Penney (JCP), and Target (TGT) intend to stay.
Stocks in Bangladesh have climbed 27% this year. One tempting play is Envoy Textiles (ENTL.Bangladesh), one of the country's largest denim producers, which went public in 2012. Thomas Hugger, chief executive of the AFC Asia Frontier hedge fund, notes that Envoy's revenue is growing at a 50% clip this year and that profits have shot up 63%, while the price/earnings multiple is only 11 … "
"India also has ambitious plans to attract foreign investment, but Prime Minister Narendra Modi will have to overcome difficult labor unions and Byzantine government bureaucracy."
Barron's wrote a cover story, "India: Open For Business," in May, before Prime Minister Narendra Modi swept into office. India has been a stellar market for investors this year: the S&P BSE Sensex Index is up 32% year to date. India smallcap stocks rose even more in that span: the iShares MSCI India Small Cap ETF (SMIN) is up 55%. Casting a wider net hasn't always fared as well: the Royce International Smaller-Companies fund (RYGSX), whose manager was bullish on India smallcaps in the cover story, is down 4% year to date. See this week's Barron's cover story, "The New China," and our recent emerging markets roundtable, "The New World." Subscription required for each.

Some Nigeria stocks look attractive for a swap with Pakistan and other frontier equities.
So says Nikhil Bhatnagar, an Asian equity analyst at Auerbach Grayson. At the heart of the argument: the decline in oil prices is hurting Nigeria's currency and market overall. The biggest losers are in the consumer and cement industries, Bhatnagar writes. His logic: Nigeria and Pakistan have similar geopolitical risk, but Nigeria consumer stocks are trading at a discount to the group multiple of about 28 times.
He suggests it makes sense to swap from Pakistan to Nigeria consumer names." Here are two he suggests:
"Unilever Nigeria (market cap – $663 million): after its steep decline looks the most interesting now. It is now the cheapest Unilever subsidiary. In the world and valuations are at par with the parent (20x 2015E), which makes it a good time to start taking a fresh look. Also post-election next year, I would think staples should be a good early cycle bet in 2016.
Nigerian Breweries (Heineken subsidiary, market cap – $7.3 billion): might be another interesting name to look at, the valuation premium to parent has shrunk to 15-20% and the dividend rockets to 3.5-4% at this price."
Caveat: each recently turned in disappointing results. Nigerian Breweries is considering a merger with Consolidated Breweries, according to a press release.
Related: since the beginning of the year, the Indian rupee has appreciated nearly 9% against the Nigerian naira, which makes Nigeria's oil more attractive for India. Bhatnagar thinks that Nigeria could double its oil output, from a 12.5% share of India's oil supply, and displace Saudi Arabia, which produces 25% of India's oil supply. He writes:
"With an annual energy import bill between $125-150 billion, even a 5% shift in India's energy basket towards Nigeria would make the current capital outflows look like a joke."
U.S. investors can get access to Africa stocks through an exchange-traded fund, though some ETFs are small and illiquid. The top holding in the Global X Nigeria Index ETF (NGE) is Nigerian Breweries; it's up 0.5% today but has tumbled 23% year to date. The Market Vectors Africa Index ETF (AFK) also includes Nigerian Breweries among its top 10 holdings. That fund is down 0.3% today, and has fallen 4.4% this year. A broader play: the EGShares Emerging Markets Consumer ETF (ECON).
For a list of India ETFs, see "India Stocks: Is Modi RallyLosing Steam?" The answer to that question, since September, has been no. The best ETF performer, up 80% over 12 months, is the iShares MSCI India Small Cap ETF (SMIN). The fund is up another 1.3% today. Compare that to the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (EEM): it's flat today, and up 1.3% over the past year.
Also see "Nigeria Market Squeezed by Low Oil Prices," on Barron's Emerging Markets Daily blog.
Investors should add to emerging market positions because they are underexposed, says Emerging Global Advisors.
Chief Strategist Nick Smithie in a note today writes that while emerging markets make up 10% of the global equity market, the average U.S. investor has a 3% to 4% allocation to emerging markets, and that gap should be narrowed.
The iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (EEM) fell 2.17% Friday, was down 2.17% for the week and is off 3% year to date.
Smithie reasons that valuations are compelling — the result of poor performance — compared to history and other global equity indexes, despite the fact that economic growth in emerging markets is beating forecasts. Smithie writes:
"The concept of fundamental economic reform across emerging markets– including in China, India, Mexico and Brazil – is gathering momentum and could cause a re-rating of the asset class as investors anticipate lower deficits, inflation and interest rates, and stronger currencies and growth in the longer term."
Emerging Global Advisors sponsors a number of exchange-traded funds based on its proprietary indexes — and many of them are based on themes.
Among its themed ETFs, the EGShares India SmallCap ETF (SCIN) has outpaced broader measures of India's market; it is up nearly 35% year to date while the iShares MSCI India ETF (INDA) is up 23% year to date. But the EGShares India fund fell 2.43% Friday and was flat for the week, while the broader fund was down 1.26% and down 1.55% for the week.
Other themed ETFs include the EGShares Brazil Infrastructure ETF (BRXX), which fell 4.16% Friday and is down nearly 17% year to date, and the EGShares Emerging Markets Consumer ETF (ECON), which fell 2.24% Friday and is down 4.39% year to date.
Emerging markets have been synonymous with growth, but the outlook for individual nations is constantly changing. Countries from Brazil and Russia to Turkey face challenges including infrastructure bottlenecks, credit issues and political shifts.

"Captivating Storyline - Bad Voices"
It was a real surprise to me so far as plot goes. It got very creepy.
It suprised me.
They would be fine if the man didn't try to sound like a woman and woman try to sound like a man, when referring to what the other character said. Very annoying.
not what you think
"Worst Voice Ever - - -Ruins the Whole Thing"
a different narrator
the plot is great
a different voice - most irritating voice EVER
the narrator
this lady needs a different career

Quentin Tarantino is a huge Jane Campion fan -- who'da thunk it?!
News broke a few weeks ago that Tarantino was, in fact, so taken with Campion's new film, Bright Star, that he personally let her know how he felt -- by sending the Piano director a (very sloppy!) handwritten note. That note hadn't yet been seen until now. Totalfilm has the note, which you can read here.
In the very complimentary note, the Inglourious Basterds filmmaker notes that he doesn't "like period pieces like that" but he "loved this!!!" before citing several specific elements he enjoyed about Star.
Bright Star, out now, centers on the tragic 19th-century romance between renowned English poet John Keats (Ben Whishaw) and his muse Fanny Brawne (Abbie Cornish).

Not entirely involved to "Prang" but in fact refer to normally a gorgeous tanned girl with a big personality. A Prangie is normally amazing in bed, possess such great hair, and a smile that makes you melt. She's amazing all around.

The core story is both funny and touching and the humor is very good.
Tori Spelling steals the show as her character - which could be annoying as she is so perfect and perfectly adorable - never manages to grate.
It didn't make any sense at all, and more or less ruined what was otherwise a fair movie.
Really enjoyes the movie. Perfomances and dialog were great. This one was a keeper.Published 8 months ago by Richard Goenaga

Solar Impulse Airplane Makes Public Debut In Paris 26
from the how-does-it-lift-all-those-horses dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
The Solar Impulse airplane made its debut at the Paris Air Show with a 20 minute public voyage powered by nothing but solar cells
- well, it's powered by nothing but solar cells and an average size star, which is about 1,000,000 km/diameter, hanging above our heads. If the Sun could have and express feelings, would it be bothered to know, we think it's nothing? What if it felt it was unappreciated and decided to leave (or at least to leave France)? Let them try and power those planes by nothing and solar cells without the Sun
I'll have what you're having.
"What is wanted is not the will to believe, but the will to find out, which is the exact opposite." -- Bertrand Russell, _Sceptical_Essays_, 1928

I bought an used i9300 few days back.
- When I plugged it into my pc it won't get detected. but it charges.
- Sometimes charging stucks.
- It won't detect even in odin mode.
I tried,
- Reset to factory defaults.
- Reinstalled drivers.
- Changed usb cables.
Then I took a good look at micro-usb port and saw there are only 3 pins in there. Pin 4 and 5 were gone.
So my question is, How many pins should be there? could it be the reason for not detecting it?
Thanks in advance.

Beautiful rug at a great price! Thanks, Overstock.com!Read More
Colors are too different
My experience is the same as some of the others who posted, the color is very different than the website photo. I was hesitate to spend the money on something like this because I know that the colors over the web can be a bit different but this looks like a totally different rug. I wish I would have just purchased something that I could see in person. Seems like a huge pain to send back so I'll probably live with itRead More
Perfect rug - Love the colors and light background
Read all the reviews and continued to search for months for my perfect rug. This hit the spot BEAUTIFULLY. Nice bold red with a light tan backing. My is on a dark wood floor with limited lightening thus we installed a few more can lights to bring more light and the rug just "pops". One of my best purchases. Arrived quickly like the other reviews mentioned. Cant beat Overstock!Read More
wrong color
good rug for the price, however the ivory in the rug is actually yellow. It was pretty but the yellow was not for me. The picture is not an accurate representation of the true color.Read More
Better than the picture
I am very pleased with this rug. The colors are richer than I expected and it really makes the room look great. It is also thicker than I thought it would be. Great rug for an excellent price!Read More
Great product for the money
Hesitated for several weeks before ordering. Read all the reviews, which were very helpful, and decided to order. I ordered two, one for the living room and the other for the dining. Because the rooms are connected, I went with the identical rugs rather than bring in two different designs. The order was delivered sooner rather than later and arrived in good condition. One of our big concerns was what would happen after unrolling the rug(s). Within a day, along with some heavy books, the rugs smoothed out beautifully. When and if I need to order any more rugs, I wouldn't hesitate. The price was right and the product satisfactory.Read More
Love it.
I was thrilled to find a 9x12 rug for such a great price. Having multiple dogs in the house I hate to spend a fortune on a rug. This one is much better than I thought it would be. It's thick enough to feel good underfoot. Much prettier than the picture. I'm very happy with it. It really pulls the room together.Read More

Attractive Rug
We needed a new rug quickly since our dog had an accident on our previous rug -- this rug was a bargain and shipping was only $3! The colors are vibrant, and we love the size, which is a bit bigger than our last rug. I guess the only complaint is that it isn't very thick, but you get what you pay for :-) It looks great in our living room, and we're glad we bought it!Read More

This Core strengthening workout is a favorite with my students, men and women alike. They never seem to get bored with it and ask for it over and over again. Not only do the exercises feel good while youre doing them, but the overall workout gives fast outstanding results. Because of its popularity with my personal clients I decided to share it with everyone. This revolutionary spinal workout will unlock muscles in your core that you did not know existed making you both stronger and leaner. This workout gets to the root of tight, painful back and hip muscles liberating them to achieve both increased range of motion and release of pain. Although the abdominal muscles are challenged throughout the workout, the floor work sequence is long, unique and strengthens the entire back and abdominal group. This is a workout you can do repetitively and notice increased strength and flexibility after each session. The inches will also drop away from the powerful Core strengthening as your posture improves and your stomach flattens.
Season 8: "Graceful, pain-free aging is achieved by maintaining a proper exercise regime and a healthy diet. Those age related conditions that we are all predisposed to can be avoided, reversed or slowed down by the stretching and strengthening technique of the Classical Stretch program, in addition to a healthy lifestyle. Season 8 focuses on keeping people of all ages looking and feeling young. Classical Stretch revitalizes the body, increases strength and energy, frees the joints, and relieves chronic pain. These workouts are safe and easy to do for people of all ages and levels of fitness."--Container.

In the spring of 1984, a strange new comic book sat beside cash registers in select shops, too big to fit in the racks, and too weird to ignore.

Until it sold out. Again and again and again. For thirty years.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Columbia Rome
Would never stay here again.
There are three positive things about this place, which stop me from giving it a rating of terrible.
First, it has a good location. Second, it has better than average breakfast (for Italy) and third, it has a lovely and friendly staff. The hotel itself is greatly lacking. The worse problem is the noise. The rooms must have walls and ceilings of paper. You hear every walk, every word, every creak, all the time. Its incredibly hard to get any rest.
The second problem is that it is not very clean. The carpets are old, worn and dirty, the bed comforter left much to be desired. The shower stall drain was plugged. I do not recommend this hotel. Go down the street on block and pay LESS to stay at the wonderful LIRICO
Convenient And Surprising
If you are looking for a quiet place to stay near the train station, give this place a try. We stayed at the hotel on May 28 and 29. The rooms are small and a bit austere but the showers are great and the air conditioning is excellent! The staff is multi-lingual and very helpful. When Katrina (I hope I've got your name right) found out that we were leaving at 5:30 AM, she packed a take away breakfast for us the night before - a very nice and unexpected gesture.
The hotel is very convenient for touring the Colosseum and the Forum. The hotel also has a nice roof top garden area where you can have a drink and some snacks. We had a very nice late night bottle of wine there and enjoyed the early summer evening weather.
The hotel is about 3 blocks from the train station and, at 150 euros per night, a good value in central Rome. Not a lot of "old world charm" in the building but a great staff and a pleasant and quiet place to sleep.

Date of Stay: February, 2015 - $19.00
We've stayed here a couple of times in the past. Rate reflects the $555 monthly rate (which goes up soon to $595+elec). Monthly rates have increased with no visible improvements to the park. The north end offers more space and level lots, but sites cost more. The south end is more picturesque but sites are generally closer together and less level. They need to repave over potholes. I'd estimate about a third of the park is short term campers with the rest on monthly stays. People were friendly. WiFi is crappy Tengonet and not free for monthly users. Both ATT & Verizon have strong signals. Overall, this is a great location and a very good RV park. We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.Undo
Date of Stay: November, 2014 - $52.00
Stay was for 4 nights due to holiday and family in the area.
Rate was high due to holiday and events in area. Close to all in the city. Quiet. Have stayed here several times before when visiting the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. Have stayed at other parks in the area and this is the best one by far. This park will always be our first choice when returning to this area. We were in a 38 foot motor coach. The staff is great. We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Motorhome.
Date of Stay: September, 2014 - $50.00
I have stayed here before and park was really a nice place. I believe the park has changed hands, now part of a big corporation. The front is not welcoming, yucky, blah paint color, awning is torn and flags need replacing. I stayed on the "big rig" side. The road is like driving on a wash board country road. Really needs to be repaved. It appears they are turning park into permanent resident park. Lots of personal things in the yards, really looks junky. Park used to have lots of flowers, no longer. I did not see many people working there and the park reflects that neglect. Office staff not as friendly and helpful as in the past. Seemed too busy to help with questions. They do have new laundry machines. We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.Undo
Date of Stay: September, 2014 - $37.00
I wouldn't call this a resort. Sites were crowded and not very level. Bath and showers were clean, but they need more of them. In a very nice area with plenty of facilities available (food, shopping, fuel). Everything is wooded, so there is plenty of shade. We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.Undo
Date of Stay: August, 2014 - $38.00
This is a very nice RV park in the suburban town of Arlington, about midway between Ft. Worth and Dallas. Lots of nearby shopping and restaurants. As the name implies there are lots of trees, but they are well-trimmed and do not interfere with big rigs. Satellite at some sites may be a problem. Many seasonal and permanent residents, but everyone seemed friendly as did the staff. Very good cable system and a strong TengoInternet Wi-Fi, with several days free. Roadways are paved and mostly in good shape, sites are gravel and some require a bit of work to level the rig. Sites are of decent size and with a reasonable distance between one another. We would definitely stay here again when in the Dallas area. We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.Undo
Date of Stay: July, 2014 - $45.00
Campground access was limited due to construction but no gate to worry about when returning late to the campsite. Thankfully the staff called us before we left Houston and gave detailed instructions on how to get to our campsite. Routing was through the "back door" because the street was torn up. Note that the street is supposed to reopen after the 29th of July. I called the office after arriving, and they sent a staff member out to guide us to our pull through slot. The park is older, and like others we visited in the last few years seems to have a high percentage of long term residents. The residents were reasonably friendly and their sites were for the most part neat and clean. There was plenty of shade trees, gravel sites, with concrete pad with picnic table. Cable TV and WiFi were both good, I clocked the WiFi with a 2M down and 1.5M upload speed. Had some trouble with the 30 amp breaker, so plugged in my 50 amp adapter and all was well. We only needed one plastic brick to level the rig. Location was good place for traveling to both Ft Worth and Dallas area. Our main interest being the various GoKart tracks. A couple of tollways made the travel time more than reasonable. AMC Theater and other shopping nearby so all needs were met. I never did see the office, they came to our site to deliver the map/info packet and all billing was on the same credit card. Note that the price includes a $25 Good Sam's discount (5 nights). We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.Undo
Date of Stay: June, 2014 - $40.00
Very nice park with helpful and friendly staff. We had a Preferred site at the front of the park. Had a fountain on our site and friends had a well maintained walking garden next to theirs. Plenty of trees, so no satellite, but nice to have on hot summer days. Great pool and laundry facilities. Construction on drainage ditch through the RV park is still going on so ask for spot away from that. Definitely would stay again. We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: June, 2014 - $38.00
Clean, well maintained park. No power or water problems. Paved roads, gravel sites that require some leveling, concrete patios. Cable excellent. Internet fast, reliable and free. Friendly staff. Escort to site with help lining up. Clean, large laundry room. Very little road noise, minimal airplane noise from DFW. Dumpsters for trash. City is doing some drainage ditch work in the park, quite a bit of noise from their equipment during the day, not the campground's fault but you should know. We definitely recommend this park. We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: May, 2014 - $40.00
We enjoyed our stay. The hookups were all good and the free WiFi worked pretty well. We had a good Verizon cell and broadband signal. There are lots of trees in the front, older, part of the park, making it difficult to impossible to get Dish TV. The newer part of the park is more open and TV would be better there. The staff is very nice. We stayed here several years ago and really enjoyed it. It is a little more in need of maintenance now. The campground is a good location to visit Dallas and Ft. Worth. We would come here again. We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.Undo
Date of Stay: May, 2014 - $44.00
We stayed for a month but payed the electric. Shade site, good pullthru. Staff is very friendly. Office and pool area clean. Didn't use the laundry or bathrooms. Lots of permanent residents and all the sites were well kept. We would stay here again. We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: April, 2014 - $18.00
Rate reflects the monthly rate. We were here for four months while doing a consulting job. Have family in the area and when we return we will always stay here going forward. For the Texas summer the shade cannot be beat. Staff is wonderful and helpful. Work has been going on in the creek between the upper sites and lower sites and will be complete in August, giving improvement to the park. While there are many full time people here the RV's are not run down and sites are well kept. Close to all Arlington activities and well worth the money for the stay. We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: April, 2014 - $30.00
Stayed here 4 nights to visit friends. Said in Sam's that there was a pet limit. Not really true. They allowed us to stay with 3 Newfs as long as we didn't walk them all at the same time. Pet walk areas limited, but we found an empty field the other side of the fence. Office staff very accommodating and informed us of RV services available...inc. coach washing by an outside vendor. Will stay here again when we pass through. Other reviews accurate. A really decent park onto itself, surrounded by the city. Plenty of shopping. We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: April, 2014 - $19.00
Site # 351 Stayed here 30 nights. 2 Adults, 1 cat. The campground is quite clean and well maintained. Nice trees throughout the park. The roads are paved and the sites nicely graveled. The south portion of the park is for long term RV's, the north portion is short term. At night there is some traffic noise from the highway depending on wind direction. Occasional airplane traffic. During our stay there was repair work being done to the drainage canal that runs through the middle of the campground. They started at 7:30 every morning. Excavators, tractors, dump trucks, back-up beepers, and all very noisy. Electric is charged for monthly or longer. Our charge was $128 which worked out to about 11 cents per kilowatt. So that needs to be considered for overall cost. Campsite: 50/30/20 pedestal (metered for monthly stays), sewer, water, cable. Gravel parking site with a concrete pad. Very large sites with plenty of space between. Picnic table. No fire pits; campfires not allowed. Water: City water. Good pressure, use a reducer. Minimal chlorine. Cable: Basic cable; Time Warner. Can buy individual service. Internet: Treetops provides one week of Tengo for free. After that you need to pay for the typically poor Tengo service. Since we were here for a month we opted for internet through Time Warner. Total cost for one month was $48. Just give them a call, pick up the cable modem from their local office, easy to setup yourself and viola, you have 15 mbps internet with no limit. Laundry: New machines were installed during our stay. $1.50 for wash and $1.25 for dry. Laundry tub, folding table. Showers: We did not use these but looked at them. They look virtually new. Pool: There is a nice looking pool, but it was not open during our stay. Staff: Easy check in. They called us every time we had mail/package to pick up. Friendly and easy to deal with. The yard maintenance was a bit different. Very little concern about where they were blowing debris with the leaf blower, or flying debris/rocks from the weed whacker. Social: To be part of the social scene you need to be out walking your dog, which we do not have. In general the campers are pleasant. The campground does not have any activities that I could find. Location: In the middle of Arlington, close to anything and everything. A big shopping mall is just one mile down the street. Within two miles are more stores, shops, restaurants, bars, etc. than you could ever need. Other: Has recycle dumpster Very nice campground. One of the best we have been to so far. If we are in this area again for anything we will stay here. We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: February, 2014 - $35.00
Stayed 2 nights while visiting the area. Price is Good Sam. Even though it was dead of winter, I could see where this would be a lovely park in the spring & summer! Staff was friendly & helpful. Very clean & tidy. While close to homes & businesses, park was quiet & felt secluded. Was close to interstates & easy to go visit Dallas & surrounding area. We would definitely stay here again. We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: December, 2013 - $40.00
Delightfully full of trees. This park must have been there a long time because it is surrounded by residences. It is in the city so no fires are allowed. We camped at Treetops RV Resort in a Travel Trailer.Undo

Ryan Newman is sick of being landed on at Talladega (VIDEO)
May 6, 2013, 4:00 PM EDT
Ryan Newman was particularly peeved off after being involved in yet another of NASCAR's "Big one" accidents at the Talladega Superspeedway.
The reason, frankly, is that he's been here before.
When his former Penske Racing teammate Kurt Busch wound up on top of his car on Sunday, it marked the second time Newman's been in exactly the wrong place at the wrong time when a car has gone airborne at Talladega.
It also happened at the spring Talladega race in 2009, when Brad Keselowski contacted Carl Edwards, and Edwards' car came careening toward Newman's. With a stuck throttle and not being able to see, Newman's car kept going across the line that day. It was easily the scariest third place finish in recent memory.
Of course, for good measure, Newman also had one of the most spectacular barrel rolls of his own in a restrictor plate race, at the 2003 Daytona 500, some 10 years ago. Then, like now, he has thankfully emerged from all accidents uninjured.

I'm sure it's scary but no one gets hurt in " The Big One". Newman's comments right on. "They got what they wanted." What does that say about your fan base. They start booing if there's not enough yellows. In open wheel, people die whent this happens. Let's you know which serie's drivers have the bigger set.
