Jamie Bestwick has won his seventh gold in BMX Vert, earning the event's first-ever four-peat in the process. As has been the case so often for much of the last decade, Bestwick was nearly untouchable Friday night, throwing a variety of 540 variations, including alley oop 5s in the 11-foot range, double downside tailwhips and downside tailwhip flairs that soared well above most of his other competitors.
Bestwick reflected on his record-setting win after the Final. "Man, what a day. The four-peat is just crazy. I'm happy to have won and made some BMX history."
The contest, which took place on the stage at the Nokia Theater in downtown Los Angeles, was largely a battle for second and third, which ultimately ended in an 80-point tie between Steve McCann and Simon Tabron. The tie was broken by a points deduction, in which the highest score for each was dropped and their totals averaged for a second time.
While some riders, including Coco Zurita, were able to nearly reach heights similar to Bestwick, none could match the technical difficulty of his tricks. And while both Tabron and fourth-place finisher Chad Kagy had technically difficult runs, neither consistently boosted as high as the champ. In addition, Bestwick's freakish ability to avoid crashes was something unique in today's Vert field.
The win gives Bestwick his eighth X Games medal overall.

Display caption
The theme of this painting is the role of the artist. In the foreground the painter lies sleeping beside his paints and brushes and an unfinished watercolour of the landscape beyond. This artist figure may represent GW Allen, though it is not actually a self-portrait. In the middle distance a group of friends are picnicking in the sunlight. By contrast, the artist sleeps in the shade. He is shown as a figure apart, absorbed in a world of dreams and the instinctive desires represented by the faun standing over him.

Guilty plea in Martins Ferry shooting death
Harrison fatality probed
CADIZ — Troopers are investigating a rollover crash that killed an 18-year-old early this morning in Harrison County, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol.
John Walter Smith, of Jewett, was driving his pickup truck eastbound on Ohio 151 between Scio and Bowerston about 3 a.m., and troopers said he went left of center, hit a culvert and embankment, then overturned his truck.
Smith was trapped until first responders got there and took him to Harrison Community Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, authorities said.
Troopers said the use of alcohol is unknown, and he wasn't wearing a seat belt.

After completing my International Studies degree at UC Irvine, I embarked upon a 2-month backpacking trip through Western Europe, with my trusty point-and-shoot. I photographed everything I came upon. The point-and-shoot is long gone, but my passion for capturing stunning images of intriguing subjects still remains.
Returning to my hometown of sunny San Diego, I followed my passion for photography working as a photographer's assistant to some of the best shooters in the region. Having turned this experience into a vision of my own, I'm available for commercial, corporate, architectural, editorial, and travel photography assignments around the globe.
I am a Professional member of American Society of Media Photographers (ASMP), and I recently completed a 3 year stint as the Treasurer of the San Diego Chapter.

Well it seems that this game will have its sneaking elements but I bet gamers will just use this game as an action one with Raiden slicing everything that moves instead of going ala Snake. So this game takes 4 years after MGS4 and Raiden works for a military contractor called Maverick Security where he works like a bodyguard for people and even trains new recruits. Wow, such a jump from what he was in MGS2...
The antagonist this time is called Desperado Enterprises, but seems not much is told as to why they want to fight Raiden and anything else. Raiden can sneak behind enemies and be as silent as a ninja, but it was reported on the Demo that swarms of enemies show up many times for any MGS fan to get that classy end to enemies with Snake. The Demo ends with you fighting a semi peculiar canine with a chainsaw for a tail and lots of bad guys who want to be churned into flshy mesh.
Interesting, well, its not entirely an action game but its not classic MGS either. I have heard theere will be a MGS5 in the future, but as of today its just a rumor.

Mp3 for Free – Quiet Company "How Do You Do It"
Quiet Company, led by Taylor Glen Muse, is one man's vision brought to life with a little help from his friends. Hailing from Austin, Texas, Taylor Muse already has years of experience under his young belt, having fronted and played in many bands, including an early version of Eisley. After the break-up of his last band, The Connotations, Taylor hoped to complete an album of collected contributions from his extensive cast of musician friends. Instead, he played nearly everything himself, and ended up with a very personal and visionary endeavor entitled "Shine Honesty". By the end of it all, you may be uncomfortably aware of exactly who he loves, who he hates, and how he feels about them all.

Warner Music Group has a hole where Michael Buble "Christmas" CD sales used to exist. The company's recent acquisition of Parlophone and other EMI assets will help fill that void and them some.
Warner revenue dropped 1% to $769 million in the quarter and its net loss grew to $80 million in the quarter ended December 31, according to earnings the company released Thursday. It was the last earnings Warner would report without the addition of Parlophone and other EMI assets it acquired [1]
last week [1] from Universal Music Group. Warner, with the purchase, will add to its roster Coldplay, David Guettta, Duran Duran, Iron Maiden, Kylie Minogue and Radiohead, to name just a few of the artists.
Warner did its best to highlight the quarter's positive aspects ended Dec. 31, 2012. Early in Thursday morning's earnings call, CEO Stephen Cooper pointed out the difficult year-over-year comparison due to tremendous Michael Buble sales in the holiday quarter of 2011. He also noted total revenue had increased when measured at constant currency, which removes currency fluctuations. But like all other music companies, Warner is tasked with following a hit with another hit (or it can buy the market share). And like all other financial statements, Warner's are not reported at constant currency.
Total digital revenue rose 16% to $255 million, or 33.2% of total revenue, from $205 million in the prior-year quarter. Domestic digital music revenue was $128 million, or 49.4% of total domestic recorded music revenue compared to 44.9% a year earlier. Physical revenue decreased 12% to $300 million from $341 million.
Music publishing revenue declined 4.1% to $116 million. Music publishing digital revenue increased 27% to $19 million due to gains in downloads, subscriptions and streaming services. That digital gain more than offset the 21.2% decline in mechanical royalties related to the decline in physical sales.
Artist services and expanded rights revenue remained flat at $60 million. Licensing revenue increased 13.2% to $60 million from $53 million.

Tai Yai language lessons at HDS
The newest development at DEPDC's Half Day School (HDS) is Tai Yai language lessons on Friday afternoons. Thanks to the new cooperation between DEPDC and the Tai Origin Network (TON) HDS can now offer regular Tai Yai language classes on two different levels every week.
This school year children from seven different ethnic group visit HDS. This are Tai Yai, Tai Lue, Akha, Tai Khün, Burmese, Thai, and Lawa. Currently the biggest group at our school are students from the Tai Yai group. They make up for nearly 50% of our current students.
The Tai Yai, in Myanmar often called Shan, are the biggest ethnic group in Myanmar's Shan State and many refugees and labor migrants along the Thai side of the border belong to this ethnic group as well. Tai Yai people have their own language and script and as language is an important part of ones culture and origin there are increasing efforts to promote the language in all situations of live.
Tai Khün and Tai Lue language are closely related to Tai Yai language and together this three groups stand for more than ⅔ of HDS current students. For this reason we were very happy when two teachers from TON offered to come to visit HDS ever Friday afternoon to teach Tai Yai language to our students. This classes include spoken and written language. DEPDC believes that literacy in the students own language is a valuable addition to literacy in Thai and some cases Burmese language.
Unforgettable Student Volunteers
Everyone at DEPDC/GMS would like to extend a warm thank you to the ladies and gentlemen of International Student Volunteers (ISV) who, earlier this year, worked so diligently to remodel the kindergarten, and organized so many activities for the children at DEPDC/GMS. You did a fantastic job and everyone still fondly remembers the spirit you brought to all of us. Let's hear from Kyle, one of the volunteers, about the volunteers' experiences while at DEPDC/GMS!
"This summer, our group of fourteen volunteers and our team leader Carole Ketnourath, dedicated our time to help DEPDC/GMS remodel their kindergarten building as well as aiding the longterm volunteers and staff in teaching the children English, life skills, and teamwork through sports and games.
"When signing up as volunteers, we understood that we would be challenged physically, due to the labor that was needed at the center. However, we did not know to what extent our emotions would be challenged, too, as we learned about human trafficking and caught a glimpse of the difficult circumstances under which many children in the region grow up.
"Our daily tasks varied from labor to having direct interaction with the kids. First, we scraped off the old paint off the kindergarten building and took down its old tiles. Next, we painted the building's exterior, before we decorated the new tiles in a garden theme.
"All the tiring work was quickly forgotten when we would teach English to the children or created arts and crafts with them. We also held two field days with all grade levels, where we played a wide variety of games and created special activities for the kids.
"Doing all this in two weeks was an extremely rewarding experience for all of us and my fellow ISV group member, Kelsey, summed up our group's sentiments when she said
"There is no way I could have ever imagined how much I'd learn and do in such a short period of time. These children, along with the staff who left me with invaluable knowledge of the issues of trafficking and community development, have reminded me to never give up my dreams of improving the lives of those around me."
"In helping DEPDC/GMS, we knew that we did our part to help prevent these children from falling victim to exploitation by human traffickers.
"I would like to use this opportunity to also highlight the work that another ISV group did before we arrived. They did a great job of painting the interior walls with many visually stimulating images. The 'new' kindergarten at DEPDC/GMS is thus a collaborative effort of our two groups.
"Being able to see the children smile and blissfully play with one another even on a rainy day, made the hard work all the more enjoyable and rewarding. This is what my fellow group member Erica had to say:
"We came willing to do whatever ISV and DEPDC/GMS wanted us to do. However, after getting to know the children, and seeing how happy they were to have us there, the project became much more personal. I believe the other volunteers will agree when I say that we came to really care about the children and wanted to give them a beautiful place where the kindergarteners would have a space to learn for years to come. I believe we succeeded."
"After our two weeks of hard work and teaching the kids, I feel that we have made a positive impact on DEPDC/GMS and the students there, yet at the same time, the children and staff have made a huge impact on our group as well. Through the children's smiles and willingness to learn and the staff's genuine desire to help the children, I feel that our group has learned a lot about the kindness and dedication in human nature. On behalf of the two ISV summer groups, I give a huge 'Thank you' to DEPDC/GMS for letting us come and help them and be a part of something that contributes to the goodness in this world."
The children and staff at DEPDC/GMS would like to thank both visiting ISV groups for your hard work and dedication and for your creativity and joyousness! We all greatly enjoyed your visits. The kids miss you and send their hellos!

The nasties are at it again. Not only is Britain on the road to being an official apartheid state, but is on the road to being a totalitarian official apartheid state.

The speed limiter is utterly ludicrous. I saw some BBC wonk try it and he said, "it feels like someone else is driving". Which helps road-safety how exactly? Lets talk about aeroplanes. What the Wrights managed to do was take a very different tack. Everyone before had been obsessed with trying to develop stability in flight. They had the sort of idea of developing "ships of the air". The Wright's biggest triumph was tossing stability and going for control. In a real sense they didn't so much invent the aeroplane as invent the pilot. The point is what you need is someone competent at the wheel or the stick or whatever and going for stability over control is idiotic.
I just googled the Uk Commission for Intergrated Transport.
Holy God!
Just look at this bunch of control freaks!
And why would a supposedly independent body have
.gov.uk in it's headers?
Free speech is about the state dictating what is or is not acceptable, it is not about free people freely expressing contempt for contemptible behaviour.
Refusal to finance a platform for thugs to spew their venomous bile does not constitute censorship.
Financing a platform constitutes support.
paraphrased from Lord Vetinari
"I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice! And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue."
You have the right to analyse, criticise, judge, satirise, mock, lampoon and ridicule any belief and opinion to any extent you see fit, without let or hindrance. 'Islamophobia' is a fatuous and intellectually junk term whose combined purposes are to smear the target, deceive listeners and protect Islam from this critical analysis, placing it above all other belief systems in this society – a position to which it has no entitlement.
The sole legitimate role the state has in this matter is to ensure both your freedom to do this, and your security following.
As an aside, this is possibly the best piece of writing I've read in a while. Poignant, moving, and funny as fuck:

Had hope once
A chance to hold on
These tender touches
Couldn't hold it very long
The lake filled up
The drought left town
I sat in its car while it all went down
Lost it on a child's dare
So why am I alive?
80 miles an hour
Driving down desert land
Travelling salesman
Remembering again
The game is up
It's gone too long
Life moves past if you fail to move on
Lost it in an old man's stare
So why am I alive?
I sat and stared and thought too much
I spent my nights in a wanderlust
Till fate too me and made me look
You caught my eye gifted your touch
And I found my purpose right there
So why am I alive?

A 20-year-old man said he was shot in Southeast Portland on Friday night, according to police.
The man, who wasn't identified by police, said he was shot about 9:25 p.m. near Southeast 122nd Avenue and Powell Boulevard, according to a Portland police news release.
He showed up at Kaiser Sunnyside Medical Center near Clackamas about an hour after when he said the shooting happened, according to police. He suffered an injury that police didn't think would threaten his life.
A second shooting happened in Southeast Portland shortly after 10 p.m. Officers found evidence of gunfire at Southeast 85th Avenue and Knapp Street, police said. A parked car was damaged at the intersection, police said, and callers said they heard a car speeding away from the area after the shots were fired.
Police received initial reports the second shooting happened about two blocks east on Knapp Street.
Police don't know whether the two shootings were related. No additional information was available at about 11 p.m. Friday.
The shootings are under investigation.
Police ask anyone who has information about the shootings to call their non-emergency line at 503-823-3333.

Check it out! this was fun :)
move 38: he could win, if he played kh2.. here you cant win. what would you play after kh2 or would you resign?
H2? im not scared of h2! Qxf4+ then if he blocks with G3 back to E4 threatening mate in one on G2 or if he moves to H1 again C1+ followed by G1 mate! blocking with the queen just gives it to me, its crazy how such a lost position turned into a 2 piece mating net :)
Ha, looks like fun. All kinds of silliness here. You could have taken his queen with your pawn on move 36. On move 35 he could have forced a queen trade. And so on. But it looks like it was a great time!
Oh crap how did i miss that?! LOL
Ha, yeah I hate looking back and seeing stuff I missed...
If white played 32. Rc7 instead of letting you escape by playing 32. Rc8+, then white would evenually win by the following line: 32. ...Qe1+ 33. Kh2 Qh1+ 34. Kxh1 d3 35. Qe7#.
If black doesn't decide to spite check on move 33 and goes with something like 33. ...Qh4 or Qb4, then play continues with 34. Qd7+ Kf8 35. Qf7#.
But hey we all have swindled and been swindled, so congrats on the win.
You have over 1000 games here, so surely this kind of ending isn't new to you. So why post it?
Maybe the opponent was rude to you and you wanted to gloat publicly? I don't know.
Because it was a fun game that he was happy he won? Because he was bragging that he won a close game that he didn't play too well?
Why do you even care? You don't need to comment if you don't think it's worth commenting on.
I found the situation interesting enough to comment on apparently.
Now that I look at the comments (previously I only looked at the end) he's just having fun with it, so never mind, just a fun game where he managed to beat the odds :)
Haha your analysis made me laugh. Nice game
Faster is simply 32. Qxe6+ ...any... 33.Rc8#
Thanks MrPenquin, thats all I was hoping for. I've played a lot of games but I think this one was wild and worth posting... for entertainment purposes only ;)

The Federal Reserve has confirmed its commitment to the six-week-old QE3 stimulus, saying that the US economy still needed the support of its easy money programs.
In its last meeting before the US presidential election - which, if challenger Mitt Romney wins, could trigger an economic policy shift - the Fed's rate-setting board chose to make no changes to its monetary stance.
Brushing off some recent signs of stronger expansion, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) on Wednesday said economic growth remained at a "moderate" pace.
It noted a rise in household spending and an improving housing industry, but said growth in business investment had slowed, and that joblessness was still high.
The Fed "remains concerned that, without sufficient policy accommodation, economic growth might not be strong enough to generate sustained improvement in labour market conditions," the FOMC said in a statement after a two-day meeting.
The economy also remains vulnerable to strains in global financial markets, it added.
The FOMC kept its benchmark interest rate locked at 0-0.25 per cent as expected, and said it expected to keep the rate at a very low level "at least through mid-2015".
As expected, the Fed said its broad policy to press down interest rates would stay in place "for a considerable time after the economic recovery strengthens".
The central bank was referring to its two stimulus programs, QE3 launched last month and the nearly year-old Operation Twist, through which it invests $US85 billion ($A82.72 billion) each month in bond purchases in an effort to drive down long-term interest rates to simulate investment and hiring.
If the country's high unemployment situation does not improve "substantially," the FOMC said, it will continue the existing program, add other asset purchase operations and employ other monetary tools to boost the economy.
The FOMC statement made no mention of its ongoing discussion, revealed in the minutes of the early September meeting, over whether it should tie its eventual raising of interest rates to an explicit target level for unemployment.
With inflation expected to remain subdued over the next two years, the Fed has focused its attention this year on how it could help stimulate hiring via monetary easing.
But setting a target level for joblessness - which currently stands at 7.8 per cent - remains a point of contention between FOMC members, based on the minutes and speeches by Fed officials.
The meeting came before voters go to the polls on November 6 to choose between President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney as the US leader for the next four years.
Obama has been a supporter of Fed chief Ben Bernanke, but Romney has been strongly critical of the easy money policies and said he would replace Bernanke if he wins.
Bernanke's term doesn't expire until 2014, though, and it is unlikely that a newly-elected Romney would seek to force him out earlier.
"After the big changes in September, and the presidential election less than two weeks away, officials were probably happy to make this week's meeting as much of a non-event for markets as possible," said Jim O'Sullivan of High Frequency Economics.
"More interesting will be the next FOMC meeting on December 11 and 12.
"Officials will likely make a decision then on whether QE3 will be extended to include Treasuries purchases when Operation Twist ends at year-end. We expect it will be."

IRVING, Texas -- The Cowboys will not sign a punter and will stick with Chris Jones heading into Sunday's game at Baltimore, according to a source.
Jones missed the Week 4 game against Chicago with a sprained knee and was replaced by Brian Moorman. Jones was supposed to miss at least two weeks -- the Cowboys had a bye week after the Chicago game -- before possibly returning.
Moorman injured his groin during warm-ups for Wednesday's practice, putting the team in a precarious situation. Jones had punted during walk-throughs earlier this week, but there some doubt about his availability. But Friday morning, Jones punted during the open media portion of practice, leading some to believe he would be OK to play.
Friday afternoon, the team worked out three punters, Daniel Sepulveda, T.J. Conley and Chas Henry, to prepare themselves in case Jones wasn't available.
But Jones is ready, so the team won't sign another punter.
On the season, Jones had a net average of 40.7 yards with five of his 11 punts landing inside the 20.

Man facing murder charge gets a year for domestic
LISBON – The man awaiting trial for stabbing a bouncer to death near a Salem bar last November will go to prison in the meantime for slapping his wife.
Robert Harmony, 45, East Fourth Street, Salem, was sentenced to one year in prison for domestic violence during a hearing Thursday in Columbiana County Common Pleas Court. Harmony previously pleaded guilty to slapping his wife in the face at their home last July 4.
Harmony is scheduled to go on trial April 29 on murder charges for allegedly stabbing 23-year-old Gerrod S. Lanzendorfer to death on South Broadway. Lanzendorfer was found up the street from the Side Door, where he worked as a bouncer, although investigators believe the stabbing did not occur in the bar. He was stabbed 14 times.
Harmony called 911 and reportedly told the dispatcher he had stabbed someone after leaving the bar. He was found with a knife and told investigators he acted after being harassed and followed, which left him feeling threatened.
The domestic violence charge was a fourth-degree felony because Harmony had a prior domestic violence conviction, and the crime carried a maximum possible sentence of 18 months in prison. While public defender Fred Naragon requested a six-month sentence, chief assistant county Prosecutor John Gamble recommended a one-year prison sentence because of what he described as Harmony's "record of violence."
Gamble noted that not only did Harmony have a prior domestic violence conviction, he had also been convicted of aggravated menacing (twice) and aggravated assault involving use of a knife.
When the opportunity came for Harmony to address Judge Scott Washam before being sentenced, he expressed remorse for slapping his wife, who the judge has since left the country.
"Every time I've been in trouble I've been drinking," Harmony said, adding he was attending Alcoholics Anonymous at the time and has continued with his counseling while being held at the county jail on $1 million bond.
Harmony urged that anyone with a drinking problem get help, "so they won't end up standing where I am now."

Report: Michael Frolik drawing intense interest during UFA courting period; still talking to Jets
Thomas Drance
June 25 2015 01:48PM
Tom Szczerbowski/USA TODAY Sports
27-year-old pending unrestricted free agent Michael Frolik is generating a tonne of reported interest on the first day of the free agent courting period, and has met with as many as six teams, according to a report from Ed Tait of the Winnipeg Free Press. Among the teams believed to be interested in acquiring Frolik are the Calgary Flames, Sportsnet's Damien Cox reports.
Though Frolik is generating a high volume of inquiries and doesn't appear to lack for suitors, he's still reportedly engaged with Winnipeg and could still conceivably return. Of course, the closer we get to July 1, the less likely that becomes.
Nation Network Prospect Profiles: #6 Noah Hanifin
Rhys Jessop
June 25 2015 12:00PM
At this point in the draft, we're really splitting hairs about who's better than whom. Noah Hanifin is a great player. The guy we have at #5 is a great player. The guys sitting at 4th and 3rd are also great players. After McDavid and Eichel, there's really no "wrong" way to order these next four players. Still, we have to prefer some guy, and perhaps a little controversially, that guy isn't Noah Hanifin.
And that's the most negative thing you'll read in this profile because the kid is one hell of a hockey player.

Kevin Cheveldayoff has talked before about moving up or down the draft. While he is the king of double talk and saying basically he could or could not do something (essentially saying all possible events are possible), it appears that there is some legitimacy to this time.
Let's take a look after the jump.
Top-10 UFA Countdown: #3 - Cody Franson

This is a series counting down the top-10 pending UFAs. It will be posted across the Nation Network over the next month! Enjoy!
When the Nashville Predators acquired Cody Franson and Mike Santorelli in February, everybody thought it was a match made in heaven. After all, the team was getting two quality players that they were familiar with, without giving up any present assets. Theoretically, it was the type of move that should've taken a good team to greatness, but instead, it was a bust.
David Poile was quick to admit that the team was forcing a square peg into a round hole. After all, the Predators are very adament about following shot handedness with their defencemen, and they already had three quality righties. As such, Franson didn't recieve the necessary playing time, didn't fit in, and will now hit free agency. But what will he command?
Thomas Drance's NHL Awards Ballot
Thomas Drance

Photo Credit: Jake Roth/USA TODAY Sports
This was my first hockey season as a member of the PHWA, and I had the mixed blessing of casting an NHL Awards ballot. It was an honour, but it was also a heavy burden.
After years of slamming NHL awards voters for this, that and the other thing, actually having a ballot this season changed my perspective. I agonized for weeks over my selections, researched deserving candidates for each award heavily, re-streamed game video, and talked to a variety of industry people whom I trust before allowing my vote to be tallied.
Some of these decisions were decided by a wafer thin margin. I'd wake up one day thinking that Erik Karlsson was my pick for the Norris, and I'd go to sleep that night thinking that 'really, P.K. Subban was the most valuable two-way defender in hockey this season.' Then I cast my first place Norris vote for neither player.
Anyway, in the interest of transparency and because these sorts of hockey conversations are pertinent and fun, I'd like to present my 2014-15 NHL Awards ballot for your scrutiny, consideration and entertainment.

An arbitrator ruled that 40-year-old Tiffany Wilson's firing last March was "harsh" for a first time DUI offender with a spotless record as trooper. She was reinstated with back pay and now works out of the Delaware post near Columbus.
The Columbus Dispatch reports that Wilson was fired a few weeks after her post lieutenant pulled her over on Interstate 71 going 102 mph. Her blood alcohol level was 0.16 percent, twice the legal limit for driving in Ohio. She was convicted of DUI.
The arbitrator ruled that Wilson must work under a "last chance" agreement for five years and can be fired for any work violation.

This week, the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets exchange-traded fund (EEM) is flat, and the iShares MSCI Frontier 100 ETF (FM) is up 0.6%.
Brown Brothers Harriman sums up news from Indonesia, Colombia, Egypt and elsewhere. Among country ETFs in the developing world, the big winners were in the Eastern Mediterranean, though it's on the heels of negative headlines. Read More>>
As the second quarter winds to a close, country performance has swung back to pre-Brexit returns, with Peru on top and Greece on the bottom.
It's a decidedly mixed bag for the so-called BRIC countries Brazil, Russia, India and China.
Some interesting observations from three portfolio managers came up at an investing conference on India, in India, hosted by Citi.
Among the insights: Inflows of late are dominated by broad emerging market exchange-traded funds, but India-dedicated funds may do better going forward. We sum up some India ETFs' performances this week and run through a list of fund managers observations on India and equity investing.
Emerging market fund flows were flat in February, helped by oil prices and the likelihood that the Fed won't be raising rates in the near term, according to the Institute of International Finance.
The trends aren't definitive, but we've provided a short list of developing-economy exchange-traded funds, with year-to-date performance among some of the largest choices.
Currency is behind the underperformance of emerging-markets funds, which have declined 5.7%, annualized, in the three years through December 2015, while the Standard & Poor's 500 rose 15.1%, annualized, over the same period. What's next, and what investors should avoid , from Morningstar.
Brown Brothers Harriman comments on the rise in emerging market assets this week and what is next for currencies. Oil prices staged a rally, ending just above $32 per barrel, and the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets exchange-traded fund (EEM) moved higher for the week. READ MORE>>
Hard-currency emerging market bond funds have been laggards, with a basket of 50 real-money funds lagging the EMBI Global index by about 4.7% this year. Could they be positioned for a rally when Fed news shakes out?
Citi's Donato Guarino and Alexander Demyanets studied the underlying positioning to determine where the emerging risk sentiment is — investment grade bonds, high-yield bonds, corporate debt and U.S. Treasuries. As a backdrop, Citi economists think that the Fed will hike interest rates in September (16th/17th), though the Fed Funds market indicates a 30% probability of a September increase. Here's what Guarino and Demyanets conclude:
"Emerging market funds have taken a defensive stance throughout 2015 being overweight EM investment-grade almost exclusively. This stance has penalized their excess returns as most of the index total return has come from high-yield credits: Russia, Ukraine and Argentina. Our analysis, combined with the anecdotal evidence of EM funds' high cash balances, suggests that technical factors for EM credit remain strong. Indeed, if the market finds a technical catalyst for a relief rally, the positive correction may be amplified by the defensive stance of EM funds …"
The iShares JPMorgan USD Emerging Markets Bond exchange-traded fund (EMB) is down nearly 2% this year, while the WisdomTree Emerging Markets Local Debt ETF (ELD) is down nearly 16% and the closed-end Western Asset Emerging Markets Debt fund (ESD) is down nearly 13%. The iShares Emerging Market ETF (EEM) is down 16% and the Templeton Emerging Markets Income Fund (TEI) is down nearly 13%.
There are two reasons the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (EEM) could fall more: China's flagging growth may be not be fully reflected in returns, and the biggest risk to EMs – the rise in U.S. interest rates — is yet to come.
For these reasons, Brown Brothers Harriman tells investors to hedge currency risk, focus on fundamentals and look to countries that are better positioned for the third quarter of 2015: Korea, Hong Kong, China, the United Arab Emirates and Taiwan. Conversely, it sees five countries underperforming in the third quarter based on its rating system: India, Egypt, South Africa, Russia and Brazil. BBH notes that owning Korea, the UAE, the Philippines and Israel helped its asset allocation model portfolio outperform the 22% decline in the index by 3 percentage points, in July and August. (The model excludes Greece and includes three developed markets: Israel, Hong Kong and Singapore.)
With the MSCI EM index making lows not seen since 2009, and Fed and China risks, Asia "will no longer play the role of top performing region going forward," Brown Brothers Harriman writes.
"Instead, that spot may end up going to Eastern Europe until China concerns have cleared up. For the most part, both these regions benefit from lower commodity prices. Latin America should continue to underperform due to its dependence on commodity exports. Regionally, Latin America is the worst performer so far this quarter (-24.3%), followed by Asia (-22.5%)and then Europe/Middle East/Africa (EMEA) (-16%)."
MSCI Brazil was the biggest loser in July and August, followed by Colombia, China, Peru and Indonesia, according to BBH's calculations. (See partial table for countries with top BBH ratings (the best score is 1) and corresponding ETFs.)
Here's how the loser-countries' ETFs have performed year to date: the iShares MSCI Brazil Capped ETF (EWZ) is down 35%, the iShares MSCI Colombia Capped ETF (ICOL) is down 36%, the iShares China Large-Cap ETF (FXI) is down 17%, the iShares MSCI All Peru Capped ETF (EPU) is down more than 15%, and the iShares MSCI Indonesia ETF (EIDO) is down more than 28%.
The FT suggests the emerging market categorization is very flawed and takes aim at indexes that are the backbone of investments including the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets exchange-traded fund (EEM) and the iShares JPMorgan USD Emerging Markets Bond ETF (EMB) .
In "Emerging markets: Redrawing the world map," part of a series, authors James Kynge and Jonathan Wheatley say that putting emerging nations at the periphery and developed markets at the core of world affairs no longer accurately describes reality. Here are some bullet points from the article:
The authors say emerging stock-and-bond indexes are imperfect measures. They point to China. Its $8 trillion stock market is the world's second largest after the U.S. and its $5.5 trillion domestic bond market is third in the world after those of the US and Japan. Yet these assets are not fully represented in the MSCI Emerging Market Index and JPMorgan Emerging Market Bond Index. The authors conclude:
Investors have poured an estimated $10.3 trillion into emerging equity and bond indices, which "embrace such a collection of incongruous assets, that they misdirect investors and potentially reduce returns to pension funds, insurance companies and other financial institutions."
The iShares MSCI Emerging Markets exchange-traded fund (EEM) is down 6.7% year to date and has a 1.6% yield, while Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets ETF (VWO) is down 5.4% and has a 4% yield. The iShares JPMorgan USD Emerging Markets Bond ETF (EMB) is down 0.8% and has a 4.6% yield. Meanwhile the Vanguard Developed Markets Index ETF (VEA) is up 6.6% this year.
Among the largest funds invested in China equities, the iShares China Large-Cap ETF (FXI), is down 2.8% so far this year.
Valuations and yields are relatively attractive for companies outside the United States.
And one of the best ways for investors to gain exposure to companies in select international markets, and control cost, volatility and currency risk, is the purchase of exchange-traded funds, says Robert Balentine, a financial advisor who heads an Atlanta-based wealth management company that bears his name. In this short video, Balentine explains his strategy and tells Barron's why he likes Japan and what he thinks of consumption-driven emerging market economies including India.
Indian equities have kept pace with broader measures of emerging markets this year, after big gains in 2014. The iShares India 50 ETF (INDY) is up 8.5% so far this year, while the Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets ETF (VWO) is up 9% year to date. But the EGShares India Consumer ETF (INCO), a smaller fund targeting a theme in India's growth trajectory, is up nearly 15%.
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. The Barrons.com Emerging Markets Daily blog analyzes news, data and research out of emerging markets beyond Asia to help readers navigate the investment landscape.
Barron's veteran Dimitra DeFotis has been blogging about emerging market investing since traveling to India and Turkey. Based in New York, she previously wrote for Barron's about U.S. equity investing, including cover stories and roundtables on energy themes. Dimitra was among the first digital journalists at the Chicago Tribune and started her career as a police reporter at the Daily Herald in the Chicago suburbs. Dimitra holds degrees from the University of Illinois and Columbia University, where she was a Knight-Bagehot Fellow in the business and journalism schools.

Penelope Cruz Has The Best Line In The Woody Allen Film
I caught up with Woody Allen's To Rome With Love, which is sort of like a feature--length Love American Style, but as done by an auteur.
Penelope Cruz is fun as a prostitute who's pretending to be someone she's not.
But she just can't help herself.
During a group tour of the Sistine Chapel, someone looks up at the amazing art and observes, "Can you imagine doing all that work on your back?"
Upcoming Events
Responds Penelope:
"I can!"
Alas, the line doesn't get a huge laugh, partly because of the timing and the fact that's it's done in long shot.
But still, it's funny.
Along with her, Woody and Judy Davis are lots of fun as bickering marrieds. (Woody really seems to have fetishized the idea of a woman who constantly deflates him, onscreen and off.)
And Roberto Benigni is actually the best one in the film, reasonably subdued in a fascinating plotline of a man who achieves bizarre fame and becomes addicted to it, missing the inane attention as it fades.
But the "young" plot is the one that's on the most, and it's a dud.
Oh, well. Even Love American Style had slow spots.

Sun-Sentinel: Get the Hell Ready
As Tropical Storm Ernesto zeroes in on and takes aim at and draws a bead on South Florida, the Sun-Sentinel, showing true Help Team spirit, gave us two pages of instruction on the storm inside the Local section today. Among its indispensable orders:
"If you have a TV antenna or satellite dish, take it down. Unplug your set first, and be careful not to touch power lines with the antenna."
Yeah, um, no. This seems not only idiotic but unsafe -- and aren't we supposed to watch TV for information on the storm? I'm not seeing legions of DirectTV users taking this bit of advice -- why would we self-impose ourselves to such isolation? But if you do listen to the Sentinel, while you're up there don't forget to:
"Remove turbine vents on the roof and replace with metal caps."
Upcoming Events
Is this a Tropical Storm coming or the end of days? I'm lucky I got ice and gas. There's no way I'm up on the roof trying to figure out how to take down the turbines.
Some of the demands look as if they were written up by the Anal-Retentive Chef:
"Scrub your plastic water containers with household soap, swab with bleach, rinse thoroughly, let dry. Then fill containers with water."
"To sterilize your bathtub, scrub with household soap, swab with bleach, rinse thoroughly, and let dry. Seal the drain with a silicone caulking that you can easily remove later. Fill the tub with water."
Look, man, I'm just not a swab-with-bleach kind of guy. I'll buy my water at Publix. But get a load how much the Sentinel is telling us to buy:
"Figure you will need a gallon per person per day for drinking and sanitation. Have a two-week supply on hand for each person."
That means a family of four then should have 56 gallons of water today. No wonder the groceries run out so quick -- the daily newspaper is telling people to hoard. Clearly, the newspaper can't distinguish between a tropical storm and a cat 5. But it doesn't stop there. It gets all micro on our asses. For instance:
"Replace worn windshield wipers."
You can see it now: the storm is bearing down on the Jones family when Dick looks at Jane with a mixture of shame and terror in his eyes.
"Good God no," he mutters. "The windshield wipers. We forgot to replace the windshield wipers!"
"No, Dick, don't say that!" Jane screams in a sudden panic. "Don't even say that. Not the windshield wipers!"
Much wailing and gnashing of teeth ensues.
Oh and there's this:
"Obey all curfews."
Yes, and name names if you must.
Finally, it ends with this bit of frank, Zen-like advice:
"The hours of living hell during a hurricane are over. Months of working like hell may be about to begin. Take your time. Do not overexert yourself. People need you."
There you go. If you didn't think the Sentinel meant all this stuff, then I think the gratuituous use of hell -- perhaps a first for the Sentinel editorial voice -- showed otherwise. Now replace those wipers, get up on the roof, and, for the love of all that is holy, swab like you mean it.

Preserving Medicare, Social Security
Business Roundtable-member CEOs Gary Loveman of Caesars Entertainment and Randall Stephenson of AT&T briefed reporters Wednesday on BRT's recommendations to modernize Social Security and Medicare, reforms necessary to preserve the programs while putting the United States on a long-term path toward fiscal stability.
The report is "Social Security Reform and Medicare Modernization Proposals," available here. An audio file of the hourlong news briefing, which also included BRT President John Engler, can be accessed here and a transcript is here.
Loveman, who chairs BRT's Health and Retirement Committee -- Stephenson is vice chairman -- appeared afterward on Fox New's Neil Cavuto's program. The video is below.
Watch the latest video at video.foxnews.com
Loveman also had an op-ed published in Wednesday's Wall Street Journal, "How to Save the Federal Safety Nets," which argued: "The fiscal cliff has been averted, preventing immediate economic calamity. But for long-term economic growth, we must get serious about entitlement reform and government spending."

The tweets, posted on Tuesday, criticised the eBay subsidiary for its poor security and provided links to anti-PayPal website PayPal Sucks, which provides forums to post complaints and tips on how to resolve disputes.
Some of the tweets accused PayPal of freezing an account for no reason, according to IDG news.
PayPal confirmed one of its UK Twitter accounts was hacked, but said the account is run separately from the PayPal UK site and no customer data was affected, the report said.
The PayPal UK Twitter hack comes within days of the Twitter account of Fox News in the US being compromised, with hackers posting tweets claiming President Barack Obama had been shot.
Twitter has made no official response to the hacks of the two high-profile accounts, but pundits say the incidents could raise doubts about the security of Twitter as a means of public communication.
High-profile organisations like Fox News have a massive online presence and a vital reputation to uphold, said Paul Vlissidis, technical director at NGS Secure, an NCC Group company.
"Hacks like this underline that cyber attacks don't have to be about stealing data to be damaging. Reputation may be a less tangible asset than lists of passwords and personal details, but when news can travel this fast it is just as much of a technological vulnerability," said Paul Vlissidis.
