GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
My son went here for Kindergarten and I would say he left without one more ounce of knowledge than when he entered. This school teaches to children that are falling behind, so if your child is above average, good luck. Because he would finish his classwork in a very timely manner, he began having behavioral issues due to boredom (they have to put their head down when they are finished). She would also ask him to assist children who are falling behind sometimes, and when those children would go up to him for assistance again, and he would provide it, he would get in trouble. It is difficult for a 5 year old to distinguish when they are allowed and not allowed to help their peers once a teacher gives them permission. I think it would have helped if he wasn't in a half-day Kindergarten class with 31 other children, so I moved him to a charter school which met his needs. Overall, this school is clean, safe, and ridiculously close to my house, but doesn't provide what my child needed educationally (which is what matters, right?).
A great school that unfortunately is dealing with overcrowding due to poor planning by Clark County Commissioners and not building enough schools in the area to handle the growth. (Or allowing too much building with the amount of schools in place - however you want to look at it.) Despite these challenges, the teachers and Principal have handled it very well and this is certainly one of the better Elementary Schools in the District.
We come from a wonderful school in NY, where my kids loved their teachers and the things they did. So far, I have been nothing but disappointed in this shcool district. We have had to move our oldest out of one class as the teacher was just a miserable person and just seeemed burnt out on dealing with smaller children. The still have yet to put my second son in speech therapy even though we have transfered his information from his previous school over to them twice, even had a sit down with the principal when we were told it would be taken care of. They do NO art projects. I used to have a whole room full of arts and crafts/drawings that my kids made while at school, now all I get is test scores. Isn't leaning supposed to be fun in Kindergarten-at least 2nd grade? We aren't allowed to bring in food or have parties for our children when it's their birthday or a special holiday? They don't do any plays, and the one that my son did in first grade was a joke, you couldnt even have the kids make a paper hat to go along with the play at the very least?! Completely disappointed in this school, and the way they treat the children. This isn't work, its school, meant to be a fun experience.
I'm torn on how to Rate this school. The teachers are GREAT the principle is HORRIBLE. Mr. Paquette the principle only cares about test scores and how he looks to the school district. When it comes to actually talking to him personally GOOD LUCK getting past his office gate keepers. Then when he is forced to call you back he is rude and has even hung up on parents before. My child started there from kindergarten till 4th grade. We requested a zone variance this year for 5th grade for Hayes Elementary very happy with choice to change. This principle should not be a principle. The TEACHERS are great.
FORBUSS ELEMENTARY! I am so happy that MCClain is my son's teacher. He did an amazing work and always caring. Forbuss is very lucky to have teacher like her.Thank you for everything ! Sanja
This is a GREAT School. A strong an caring principal with a great staff behind him makes the perfect combination. My kids love to attend school every day.
Mr. Paquette and his staff are top notch. Definitely one of the best learning environments in the Valley. The teachers are educated and passionate about the students. Extreme support from the community and the parents which makes a huge difference. The PTA is amazing as well and are very supportive. They put on great events! The music teacher, Mr. Billings is amazing! Just a great experience and a great school! Keep up the great work Mr. Paquette!
Never mind the last rating submitted by a parent whose child could not get into the school and they rated it 1 star due to frustration. Plenty of people in the area want their children to go to this school because of it's excellent reputation. Probably the best in Southwest Las Vegas. Forbuss is an excellent Elementary school with wonderful teachers and parents that actually participate. We certainly won't be moving out of the area until our daughter completes Elementary school at Forbuss.
I have been so happy with this school. We moved here to Las Vegas from a small town in another state, and I was actually very nervous about putting my precious children in school here.... but it has been WONDERFUL!!!! The principal, Mr. Paquette is just the best, along with many of the teachers... Mrs. Kramar, Miss Kettl, Mr. Preston, just to name a few. I have noticed that when there is a teacher there that is less than stellar, they are gone the next year. I love that! I highly recommend Forbuss.
EXCELLENT Teachers and a FANTASTIC Principal. Our daughter has been going here since she started school and Loves School and Loves her Teachers. I would have to say that Mr. Paquett (the Principal) is one of the most outstanding educators I've met in Las Vegas and I've met quite a few over the years in my business. Being a real estate agent... I'm all over Las Vegas and hear multiple complaints about other schools.... You won't hear any from the parents whose children go to Forbuss. Parents are very active... events at the school are well attended showing that the parents care. The teachers are very enthusiastic and you can tell they really do care which is so important.... We would not even think about having our daughter go to another Elementary school in Las Vegas. Great Job Mr. Paquette!
My children have gone to Forbuss since the doors first opened. I have to say, comparing this elementary school to the others in the southwest part of Vegas.... It is Above and Beyond what any parent could and would want for a child that is entering our Las Vegas Education System... Being raised here in Vegas and going to several schools here myself, it makes me jealous of their education opportunities at this school. From learning the use of computers in kindergarten, to making sure that the 'NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND' is what every parent can look forward too. That being if your child is not where he/ she needs to be in academics, they will get the help... Love this School and so do my children and their classmates..
My son has gone there since 2nd grade and is now in 5th. We've had very good experiences and he love is there. The teachers and staff are amazing and really take the time to help your child succeed.
All my friends are so nice! The teachers are nice too. Especially Mrs. Slater and Miss. Schnurpel!
My grandchildren goes to Forbuss Elementary. I love this school. The principal is a terrific roll model for other principals. He is the first one I ever met that comes out and interact with parents. Asking questions and following up with the answers. He goes outside and participate with his student in all functioins Forbuss Elementary School has. Great Job Mr. Paquett. Mahalo for a job well done.
My kids and I love this school. I have a first and fifth grader there and they both love their teachers and principal. The principal is great! There has not been a day that I have not seen him out interacting with the students and parents. He always has a smile on his face. The parent action committee is very involved with school fund raisers and planning fun events for the students. I would recommend this school over and over again!
I cannot say enough about this school. The STAFF is GREAT. The Principal loves his job and it shows. I have never in all my life seen a principal so involved, its not uncommon to see him ushering traffic and pickin up garbagge on the play ground. I wanna cry just thinking that theres hope in our public school system and a staff who "really" care. Forbuss is the BEST school in my book!
My daughter that is in the 1st grade goes to Forbuss. I absolutely love this school. I trust that she is the best care when I drop her off at school. I am extremely happy with the Principle, Teachers and the rest of the Staff.
I am a parent Of 3rd grader at Forbus, and I am very pleased with this school. My child struggled with reading and was very shy. The teachers at Forbus have been extremely helpful in helping her build her confidence and reading skills. The principal is very hands on. I highly reccommend this school.
There are NOT enough reviews to support the BEST school in the district. The principal, teachers, support staff, PTA - ALL make a difference in the lives of the children that attend. If you believe in: it takes a village to raise a child, then this is the school you must enroll your child in- move to the ZONE! You will not be dissatisfied! The lanyards and pins for awards, an ice cream truck at Field Day, the Fall Festival, Missoula Children's Theatre, book fairs- field trips to go fishing? I'm a teacher of another school in the same area, and we cannot compare to the richness of being a kid at Forbuss. Congrats on celebrating kids - above and beyond ALL other schools of which I have ever known. To the Principal- your spirit of FUN is so meaningful...
This is a wonderful school with a loving, caring staff. The resource department is great and our daughter has been greatly helped. The principal is very involved with the students. The school awards system has greatly motivated both of our children to strive for more each trimester!

Venice Film Festival's Important Role in Awards Race
The Venice Film Festival doesn't have a huge role in awards season, but it's an important one.
Telluride and Toronto are very kudos-centric, each offering a glut of films that are potential contenders. Venice offers only a handful, but it confers a touch of class to any hopeful in its lineup.
A few years ago, "Black Swan" opened the Venice Fest. It was well received, and went on to garner a bunch of awards attention, including a best-actress Oscar for Natalie Portman. The Venice berth gave the film a leg-up in its global marketing -- and its kudos push. Fox Searchlight always believed in the film, but knew it did not have an easy sell with a psychological thriller set in the world of ballet. So the Venice spot sent the message that this is a film to be taken seriously. "The Hurt Locker" also made its debut at Venice, and kept building momentum from there.
Alfonso Cuaron and Stephen Frears don't exactly need to establish credibility. But the Venice slots this year convey that WB's "Gravity" is more than just a 3d outer-space venture for Cuaron (in photo above with Sandra Bullock and George Clooney). And the presence of Weinstein Co.'s "Philomena" invites comparisons with Frears' "The Queen," which started its successful global blitz when it debuted here several years ago.
Venice has four distinct advantages: Its classy status; its boutique berth for films (as one wag said, "Would you rather have your film premiere amid 50 others, as in Venice, or amid 300 others?"); its timing (the fest opened Aug. 28, and God knows, people in Hollywood always like to be first); and its star-friendly atmosphere.
Every festival likes premieres and stars, but Venice is arguably the most photogenic of all festivals, as stars are seen arriving in boats or waving on the red carpet. This year, Venice has hosted the casts of "Gravity" and "Philomena," along with Daniel Radcliffe, James Franco, Nicolas Cage, Mia Wasikowska and plenty of others.
All of these factors feed into awards campaigns and, as a bonus, actors and filmmakers can be here without appearing to be campaigning. (For some reason, many balk at that concept.) "Venice is not about building awards buzz," said one film publicist on Monday. "It's about breaking international barriers."
To break international barriers, Venice offers films from around the world, with a screening schedule that's workable. While there is a market and hoopla, the emphasis always seems to be on watching films. Unlike most other world fests, this one provides moments of breathing time between screenings and meetings. Most of the fest action takes place on the Lido, a long and narrow island with a Newport Beach/Hamptons vibe. But if festgoers want to unwind for a couple of hours, they can take a 20-minute boat ride to "downtown Venice," as locals call the familiar canal-gondola-palazzo part of the region.
Venice is generally conceded to be the world's first international film fest, begun in 1932. And current fest director Alberto Barbera keeps up the tradition by showcasing global films. That includes a healthy portion of English-language works, including Ti West's "The Sacrament"; David Gordon Green's "Joe"; John Curran's "Tracks"; Kelly Reichardt's "Night Moves"; Paul Schrader's "The Canyons"; Franco's "Child of God"; Greg McLean's "Wolf Creek 2"; Gia Coppola's "Palo Alto"; and Steven Knight's "Locke."
Some of these may end up awards contenders this year or next. Most won't. But these filmmakers, along with many others from around the globe, could be the big winners somewhere down the road.
This year's Venice has already made a kudos contribution, thanks to "Gravity," "Philomena," "Kill Your Darlings" and others. And the lineup of the 70th festival may include a lot of names who this year are planting seeds for future wins. They could be remembered as part of the classy 2013 class.

Mrunal feels lucky to be part of 'Yellow'
Actress Mrunal Kulkarni, who essays a mother to a down syndrome effected child in upcoming Marathi film "Yellow", feels lucky to have played the character.
Directed by Mahesh Limaye, "Yellow" deals with children with special needs and learning differences and the story is centred around Gauri Gadgil's character.
"In the film, I am playing Gauri's mother. I have got a chance to show multiple shades of emotions in the film," Mrunal said here in an interview.
"As Gauri's mother, I feel very lucky to have been chosen to play this character," she added.
Mrunal says for parents of such children, it is necessary to support and train them to cope up with the challenges.
"It is a huge, huge problem in one's life to give birth to a child suffering with down syndrome. But then you (as parents of such children) should have that much positivity that you come out of it and train your child and make him reach to the top," the actress said.
"It is a huge thing and that is what I did in this film," she added.
"Yellow" is actor Riteish Deshmukh's second Marathi production and also features Upendra Limaye, Aishwaraya Narkar and Usha Nadkarni.

I am someone who's been fascinated by the idea of femdom ever since I was a kid. My love and passion for powerful dominating women have come to grow over the years to such a degree that it has lead me to invest every ounce of my energy and whatever skill that I've got at my disposal in creating and publishing artworks on femdom here on DA. In the past it used to be a pencil and a sketchbook. Now it's all digital. I think DA is a paradise where no matter what kind of theme your works represent, nobody will ask you 'WHY?' making a stupid face. The word 'why' is almost a taboo in DA since no one's an outcast out here no matter what his/her taste is. Now that is indeed the selling point of Deviant Art and that is exactly what it means to be a 'DEVIANT'. Arts and ideas don't gel well with limitations.
My works reflect my ideas in ways that I won't be able to elucidate in words. If I am here on DA it's only cuz I want to EXPRESS my thoughts, desires & fetishes if you may, through the shades and strokes of my works.
Things you'll notice in my works:-
1) All out female domination over male. I don't do f/f works. It's only f/m where f>>>m.
2) An effort to steer clear of 'em stereotypical femdom ideas.
3) I don't rein in on the gore factor to make sure that the noble idea of 'flawless victory' doesn't get sullied in any way.
In a nutshell, the women in my works are invincible, destructive and lethal who can be seen finishing off their victims effortlessly like it's second nature to them. If you are looking for a slug fest with equal exchange of blows then my gallery isn't meant for you. Last but not the least, (a) My idea of fantasy femdom doesn't entertain any sort of counter from the male victims, it's one-way traffic in the form of clinical victory of the fairer sex. (b) I'll say it again, I don't do F/F (Female vs Female) works, it's either F/M (Female vs Male) or it's nothing. No matter what, these two particular conditions ain't going to change irrespective of whatever I make. So if you are going to place any commission or request, please pay hid to these two points.
Let's all get along fellow femdom lovers. Cheers to the unbelievable power of the not-so-weaker sex.
Yours truly,
Hey Adam,
I really dig your artwork man and your bodyscissor galleries just absoluety reeks of Badass awesomeness and Kickass greatness as well. As you can see that I have quite a few of your masterpieces in my faves. You have won me over as an brand new fan in me. Keep kicking some ass out there homeboy and Godspeed!

About MeI've been writing about TV/media/radio for more than 20 years. I consider it the best beat in town, even better than covering the Reds. I grew up in Middletown, where I watched Cincinnati and Dayton TV. I don't have a formal education in broadcasting, like most TV viewers. After earning a journalism degree from Ohio University in 1975, I started at the Cincinnati Enquirer as a summer intern. I covered county government and the suburbs (including the arrival of cable TV), and later was the suburban editor and features section editor. In 1985, I returned to writing as TV critic. For many years, I attended TV press tours in Los Angeles to preview new fall shows and to visit TV studios. Some of my favorite stories are from going to the sets of "Seinfeld" "Raymond," "The West Wing," "Cheers," and "Star Trek: The Next Generation," and interviewing George Clooney, David Letterman and Jay Leno.

We're Fed Up!
24 Jan 13
More than 20,000 people took to the streets of Berlin on January 19, for the "Wir haben es satt" (We're fed up!) rally, organzied by Slow Food Germany and partner organizations to demand better food and agriculture in Europe. A day earlier, more than 800 kilos of vegetables were saved from waste and transformed into a "protest soup" at the Schnippeldisko - a mass "chopping and cooking" action against food waste with DJs organized by the Slow Food Youth Network in Germany.

My thoughts: Compassion and Understanding
Going through a rough patch at work at the moment. Nothing to do with me (because I always try to keep out of the drama at work) but as an observer and listener, I see and hear things that makes me upset. I'm not the most eloquent person and things tend to sound better in my head then on paper but I felt the need to write this out.
A little compassion and understanding is all that is needed to make someone feel better yet it seems to be one of the rarest and hardest things to come across. It is easy to openly criticise and see the worse in others. Is it because it makes us feel better about ourselves? A sense of security that you are not the only one with faults? We are human therefore we will always make mistakes and we will always fail… the important thing is to look beyond these and embrace both the good and bad. So the next time you are tempted to put someone down – stop for a moment and try for a little understanding, attempt to walk in their shoes for a few seconds, think about the unspoken words and reasons and endeavour for a little compassion. Chances are, one day you will be that person too.

I accidentally stood up a girl...now she won't talk to me.
I had plans to meet with this girl I met the previous day for a drink.Beforehand my friends and I drank a lot of popped some pills. To make a long story short, I went to the wrong place we were to meet and inadvertently sent one or two mean text messages. When I explained this to her the next day and profusely apologized I heard nothing back at all. She was bringing a friend with her and probably took a long time to get ready. I can tell she really liked me. I screwed up and want to know why I am getting the silent treatment even though I apologized.

DC Shocker: Six Titles Cancelled
- Written by ThanosCopter on Thursday, February 07 2013 and posted in News with Benefits
DC has cancelled over 10% of its New 52 Line
Source: CBR
DC announced today that Savage Hawkman, Fury of Firestorm, Sword and Sorcery, The Ravagers, Deathstroke and Team 7 have all been cancelled. The six series, which comprise most of DC's bottom sellers will see their last issues run in May.
The announcement came along with a bevy of creative changes in CBR's weekly B&B interview. Justin Jordan will be taking over Superboy, while the creative team of Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Grey will be taking over Batwing. Also, Sterling Gates will be replacing Andrew Kreisberg on the Vibe series in May, despite Kreisberg recently discussing his longterm plans with the series. We've also learned that Ales Kot will be writing Suicide Squad and Michael Alan Nelson will be taking over Supergirl.
All in all, today's announcements basically mark a further decimation of DC's Dark, Edge, and Young Justice lines, which have been whittled down to a handful of titles. Bob Harras did hint that there would be more "Teen" titles, so I'm sure we'll hear more about that next month.

@ Thornmallow
Feeling charitable? Buy me a coffee!
Have an overdue Jarvis, because I love him. <3
MARKERS ARE MY BANE, but I did it anyway. XD;; I still have a few more things to add and then they'll be done. 83a
I DREW YOU A THING. Remember, no matter how bad your day might be, Jarvis probably has it worse. Also ilu both. <3
More portfolio work in progress before I nod off. 83 Need to finish the last two sections, add the interior and exterior of every body piece, and then tack on some nice textures and I'll be done with this set.
Out of the hundreds of people I checked in, one person shouted "DAFT PUNK". I was so happy, we giggled together like kids. 9u9
Someone also asked me to xerox copy and sign it for their kid. That was…that was adorable.
I'll go ahead and organize these at a later time, but here's a tiny tuto to keep things going till then. I'm using my current portfolio work as an example, so you have to understand some of these values are off to emphasize certain things. I'm designing a bit of Protoss armor, and because the character is not the focus, he is faded out— at about 76% opacity— while the armor itself is bright and glaring.
I use Paint Tool SAI when I work, so this tutorial is done entirely in SAI. It's a very cheap program— about 50 USD, though I purchased mine a while back for 25. Best purchase I've made aside from the tablet itself, and it's worth checking out at least.
Layers are always your friend. I keep his body layer separate from the base color layer, and my three primary tools are the pencil/ brush/ watercolor tools. You can see right now his gauntlet is raw and messy, since that's what I'm currently toying with. Every piece of armor he's wearing has a uniform base color of brown. Why? Well, because it ties it all together. Think of it like an underpainting. Once I have this painted up I can adjust the colors with sliders in either SAI or Photoshop, anyway.
You generally want your work to be very large— in high resolutions— because you can always shrink it down later. However, when I lay down values, I always stay zoomed out. Flip your canvas, zoom out as much as you can, and cross your eyes to blur your vision as you go. Not only does it keep your mind active, but it's the best way to check to make sure you're not losing the whole image itself. Working too close, or trying to make it all perfect right away is the fastest way to fail and get frustrated.
Every bit of messy color here is just my mind going 'what shape is this?' 'where would light hit a round object at this angle?' 'How shiny IS the surface?' Worry about details and pretty polish later. Animators don't lay down ink and color right away— shapes are always drawn roughly in first, and adjusted as needed.
Here's my general pattern when painting. I usually block in the base color like the brown above on a brand NEW layer. Then, using the pencil, pen, or brush tool, I stab in some opaque values. Remember to pull from the palette you already have in your work. Try to limit things by using the color dropper, and if you're really unsure, dab on some color swatches as a test. If it's too much, try something else. You can also use sites like this if you need to as a sort of guideline.
Then, using the watercolor tool, I blend it together. Texture isn't an issue. Remember, you can add it in later. Just make sure the values are working right. Once this is complete, you can also merge your current layer with the layer beneath it and blend using the brush tool, for some very interesting and painterly effects. (I can't really explain these, you just have to play for yourself.) The brush tool smudges surrounding colors together, so it's like a neat little digital oil painting, you just have to have the correct colors in place and poof— instant digital paint.
Now, here's a bit more clarification on that. I always set my brush tool's brush type to flat bristle. It's the top drop-down menu that shows when you select the brush tool. It has texture, it has natural shape and flow, and you get really pretty effects with it whether you're painting on a new or same layer. The image above was the exact same process as the water color tool, only done with the brush tool instead. Really dramatic, isn't it?
It will also blend in whatever color you're adding in, so if you want to add in some soft greens, select green, and then paint over what you already have— either on the same layer, or a new one.
If your layers are all merged, it's a subtle, soft effect. If you paint on a new, separate layer, it's dramatic and bold and really cool. I love both.
Here's an example so you can see the difference: (lol at my old sig)
The sharp, hard lines of his hair, eyebrows, eyelashes and some of his features are the second technique: using the brush tool to blend. Whereas the smooth, flowing parts are from the first: using the watercolor tool to blend.
Hope this helps!
So, Tumblr. I was waiting to do something special to celebrate my 1k post, and I finally figured it out last night.
I made a Clu 2 shimeji. If you don't know what a shimeji is, it's basically a little desktop buddy that you can bother and play with while it crawls around on your screen.
These are a few of the interactions he can have, some of the other ones are just randomish stills.
He can sit around and long for Flynn.
Ride his Light Cycle across your screen.
Ask bit a question.
Change clothes.
walk around.
Climb your screen.
Climb the top of your screen.
Make copies of himself.
And a bunch of other things I was too lazy to make gifs of after all that animating.
I AM A REALLY TERRIBLE ANIMATOR, I HAVE DISCOVERED. Ugh. This is not what I was made to do. But I enjoyed it, so I think it's worth it. XD
You can pick up the file here. Just unzip it and run the shimeji.exe whenever you want to play with Clu. Also, if he clones himself too many times, or you want him to go away, just right click him and hit the 'bai bai' option that comes up.
I HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS, and if not…well…I WILL HAVE FUN WITH HIM INSTEAD.
PS- if you do get him, be sure to shake him around a little. :3a
Because I forget who blogged it here (I AM SORRY I WAS TIRED)…but I read Clu x bread this morning and it made me laugh so hard I thought it needed drawing.
This also fills my Clu x food prompt in addition to the Grid self one. SO YAY.
Bitches love bacon.
On my penis.
Now I just see this like, posted up in the grid as some Abercrombie and Fitch-esque billboard….
…peek that is me and avali totally making out.
So if lineart is making out, what is color? 83a

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
this school is a really great school. I go to this school and they really take things seriously. the security's really good. the teachers are great and caring. the student are wonderful.
I go to i.S 302 and i think the rating should be higher because it really isn't that bad. Its just sometimes the teacher may not be able to explain work properly or they may be so worried about 1 student interupting they lose minutes out of the lesson. I reccomend parents bring their child to this school
The staff at I.S. 302 is the best. I have had the pleasure of meeting, and forging great relationships with a number of the I.S. 302 staff. Some of the best in the school is Ms. L Saccomanno (English/Social Studies); Ms P Medina (Dean), Mr Rios (Dean); Ms K Douglas (Math/Science); Mr Beasley (Keyboard); Ms S Iyer (Drama); Ms M Frank; Mr Klein (Gym), and Ms Marquez (Main Ofc), and this is just to name a few!
The school recently had a change in leadership, with a new principal joining the staff in September. The tone of the building has improved, as well as the morale of staff and students. 302 is definately on its way up...
The School is coming far and teachers involment with the parents is great
This school is very helpfull for students
Love this school cant wait till graduation. Teachers are so helpful in this school
This school has numerous teachers that do an excellent job for the students. However, the overall culture of the building is terrible. Too many students roam the hallways. The principals do not work with parents at all.
This school is fun ,caring and theres lots of things for them to do. I.S 302 a has afterschool and weekend program called the Beacon Program ang its for all ages (ages 7-56).I use to go to that School grauduated last june.The grauduation rate of that school year was 98% that's better than the last 34 years.So I have something to be happy about and so do you. -kathleen m.

Global Investing
A boost for cheap emerging equities. So will they bite?
Emerging stocks have rallied 3 percent today after the Fed's startling decision to leave its $85 billion-a month money-printing in place, and some markets such as Turkey are up more than 7 percent. With the first Fed hike now expected to come in 2015 and tapering starting only from December, emerging markets have effectively received a three month breather. So will the buyers return?
A lot of folks have been banging the drum about how cheap emerging markets are these days. But imminent Fed tapering has been scaring away any who might have been tempted. Plus there is the economic growth slowdown that could knock profit margins at emerging market companies. Bank of America/Merrill Lynch which runs a closely watched monthly survey of fund managers shows just in the following graphic how unloved the sector is relative to history:
So should people be buying? BofA/ML certainly thinks so: its strategist Ajay Kapur suggests emerging stocks are 20 percent undervalued. He acknowledges all the risks out there but reckons they are all in the price by now:
In sum, we think emerging equity markets are likely to surprise the negative consensus and do rather well in the coming months. Valuations discount a lot of the financial vulnerability, investors appear to have fallen out of favor with the asset class, China/global economic data are improving, and Asia's terms of trade are getting better. While longer-term issues about over-investment, lending booms and deteriorating current accounts remain a concern, especially in an environment of rising U.S. bond yields, a rising dollar, a falling U.S. current account deficit and rising oil prices, we think these are well discounted and understood.
Here is the other side though — many reckon Fed tapering concerns were only a marginal factor behind emerging equity weakness. Rather, there are more structural reasons to justify the cheap prices, says John-Paul Smith at Deutsche:
Cheap valuations are insufficient to compensate for the multiplicity of governance concerns at both a sovereign and corporate level, which are likely to continue to drive down relative return-on-equity.
Emerging equities have been gradually de-rating since end-2010, Smith points out, even though Fed money-printing was in full swing all this time. Come December, things may start to get a bit more clear.

The Dallas Cowboys traded up a bit in the fifth round of this year's draft in order to secure Pittsburgh Panthers wide receiver prospect Devin Street, who was one of my biggest sleepers in the draft this year. Tom Savage received some hype in the spring after some analysts started to rave about him, but it was interesting to see that none of the hype was kicked back to one of his two star wideouts. Street has all the tools to be a very good No. 2 WR at the next level due to solid physical tools, plenty of athletic ability, good route-running, and excellent hands. He isn't exceptionally strong or fast, but he was productive at Pitt and has enough ability.
I thought Street was a good value in the fifth round and well-worth trading up for, and it looks like he was a bargain on the Cowboys board. The Cowboys have officially signed him to a rookie contract, and Todd Archer of ESPN Dallas reports that the Cowboys organization actually had a third-round grade on Street.
They are clearly high on him, and it will be interesting to see how many targets he receives as a rookie. Dez Bryant and TE Jason Witten are locked in as the top two targets, so it looks like Street will be the No.3 wide receiver behind Bryant and second-year Baylor deep threat Terrance Williams, who isn't much of a chain-mover. Slot receiver Cole Beasley is, but the Cowboys needed a possession-type receiver on the outside with some size and reliable hands. That's why they looked into Nate Burleson and didn't rule out re-signing Miles Austin, but Street's youth, upside, and athleticism make him a better addition than either of those two veteran options. With this in mind, I like the Cowboys decision to pick up Street even more, and I'm sure Tony Romo is elated as the additions of Zack Martin and Street this May.

A Truce On Drugs?
Last month residents of two states -- Washington and Colorado -- voted to decriminalize possession of less than an ounce of marijuana. The new laws put the states at odds with the federal government and raise questions about whether, or how, the Obama administration will react. The new approach is also bringing conversations about the broader "war on drugs" back to the fore. We consider American's changing attitudes towards illegal substances, and how the new state laws are affecting the country at home and abroad.

While the Firestone Indy Lights might provide a proving ground for drivers to learn the skills they need, but the series doesn't build stars. From what I can tell the Indy Lights series doesn't even do a good job of introducing young drivers to the Indycar fan base.
Yes, the series needs a better television series, but it also needs a product worth watching. It's a chicken and egg thing. I've watched a lot of Indy Lights races over the past couple of years, both in person and on television, they're not that exciting. The fields are small, the gap between the good teams and bad teams is rather apparent and there are only a few cars that can win on any given week. There's a lot of speculation about the future of the series, and I agree with Ryan Stringfield over at Junior Open Wheel Talent when he wrote:
One thing is certain, the Series leadership needs to make a decision soon, as delay — and lack of communication — are only detrimental to the sport and its talented young drivers hoping for a career in open-wheel racing.
I hope that Indycar takes this window they've opened by pushing back the new Indy Lights car to 2015 to come up with a package that makes the series work better. Perhaps they can entice other Indycar teams to field junior programs. Currently the only IZOD Indycar teams that participate in Indy Lights are Andretti Autosport and Schmidt-Peterson Motorsports. In the past the league offered additional testing dates for Indycar teams, and perhaps there is another incentive to get teams like KV Racing, Ganassi and Penske into racing in the Lights.
Not only does the series need more teams it needs bigger events. NASCAR has been blessed with the success of the Nationwide Series because they can use the Nationwide series to expand to markets Sprint can't, or wont, race in, like Iowa, Mexico City and Montreal. Indy Lights needs more dates, more ovals, and at least one signature race. Yes, the Freedom 100 is important, but it's a 50 lap support race for the Indy 500.
Most young drivers come to Indy Lights with extensive road course experience but only a handful of races on ovals, and most don't have much experience with pit stops, or changing the feel of the car over a long race either. I understand that one reason why the races are as short as they are is to keep cost down, but sprint races without any pit strategy or tire degradation makes for some boring races. There's also a number of drivers who show up for the Indy 500 every year without significant, or any, experience on an oval. There are a number of ovals that are probably too small for Indycar to consider, but Myrtle Beach Raceway seems like a solution. A new ownership group has taken over the speedway, and they plan on installing SAFER Barriers and increasing the amount of racing at the track. The weather routinely hits the 70's by mid-March and Myrtle Beach Raceway is only a short drive away from the city's beach resorts.
Staging an Indy Lights race in the South could give Indycar a chance to start making inroads while giving its young drivers a chance to experience in a long oval racing. By having it before the Indy 500 there's a chance that drivers like Rubens Barrichello, Simone Pagenaud, Mike Conway, and others who had never driven an oval in their life before attempting the 500, could show up to get some experience. Perhaps some veterans could be enticed to shaking off the rust at an early oval.
There are a lot of problems with Indy Lights – right now only seven drivers have confirmed seats for a season that starts in less than a month. I hope Indycar officials take this time they've bought for themselves by pushing back the new body style for a year and make some bold moves. It's seems to me, someone standing on the sidelines in all this, that the Hulman-George family is probably needs to make a significant investment if they want the series to grow.
