NEW YORK (AP) — Gloria Estefan and her husband Emilio Estefan are hoping the rhythm is going to lead to Broadway.
The duo on Tuesday announced that they've teamed up with the Nederlander Organization to try to take a musical based on their lives to the Great White Way.
"We are very excited to share this story, which is based on hope, determination and the belief that with hard work and passion, our dreams can become our reality. Our music has been a true reflection of who we are, where we came from and the journey that has brought us to where we are today," Gloria and Emilio Estefan said in a statement.
The Estefans were both born in Cuba and together became musical luminaries, winning Grammy Awards and fans across the U.S. with crossover hits like "The Rhythm is Going To Get You," ''Conga" and "Words Get in the Way," in addition to helping the careers of other artists including Shakira, Ricky Martin, Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony and Jon Secada.
At age 14, Emilio Estefan fled Fidel Castro's Cuba to Spain and later Miami. He enrolled in night school, working by day in a mailroom, determined to bring his mother and brother here, and he eventually succeeded. He persuaded an uncle to lend him money for an accordion and formed a band, playing traditional Cuban tunes at local fiestas.
Soon, the group added a shy but charismatic singer named Gloria who would steal the heart of Estefan and audiences worldwide as part of the Miami Sound Machine. The couple would have go on to have two children and a more than 30-year professional and personal partnership.
Frustrated with the limited attention given to Latin music at the Grammys, they pushed for a separate show dedicated to the broad breadth of Spanish and Portuguese music with the Latin Grammys
"I am thrilled to collaborate with Gloria and Emilio to see their amazing story come to fruition on the Broadway stage," Jimmy Nederlander, president of the Nederlander Organization, said in a statement. "The Estefans' journey of success, led by raw talent and passion, is captivating as it drove them from relative obscurity to global sensations."
The Nederlander Organization will be producing the new show in partnership with Bernie Yuman, who produced and managed Siegfried & Roy's show in Las Vegas. The creative team will be announced later.

Lucky 10,000
By Trevor Hayes
Colby Lessmann became a fan of the Hall of Fame on Facebook last week because he wanted to stay in touch. Little did he know that by clicking the "Become a fan" button on www.facebook.com/baseballhall, he'd be getting more than updates on his News Feed.
Lessmann just happened to be Facebook fan number 10,000 – a mark the Hall reached in just over a year after launching on Opening Day 2009. To honor him, the Hall of Fame has given away an individual membership. As a Member, Lessmann receives a subscription to the Hall's bi-monthly Memories and Dreams magazine, a Hall of Fame Yearbook, complimentary admission, a Tom Seaver membership card and lapel pin and a 10 percent discount and free shipping on all purchases through the Hall of Fame store at www.baseballhall.org/shop.
A baseball-lifer, Lessmann has been a fan since his early childhood, continuing to play the game through college and now as an amateur at age 37. He grew up four hours north of Kansas City and watched the glory years of the Royals, led by Hall of Famer George Brett. Many of Brett's heroic feats serve as Lessmann's greatest baseball moments.
"Back in the 80's my family and I went to a Royals game," Lessmann said of his favorite memory. "It turned out Brett had been injured, but he pinch hit in the ninth inning. When he came out on deck the crowd went crazy. He came up and jacked a home run over the right field wall and the stadium went wild."
An ardent Royals fan, he's been to at least one game in K.C. each year since 1979, but growing up in Iowa also provided the chance to easily travel to games in Minnesota and Chicago. As an adult he's taken that passion to a new level and vowed to visit every major league stadium.
"Of course, it is getting more difficult because they keep building new stadiums," Lessmann said. Among his conquests have been the brand new Target Field, Safeco Field, Chase Field, AT&T Park, Comerica Park, Great American Ballpark and 16 others past and present.
He's also writing on the history of baseball in his hometown of Sioux City, Iowa. And After doing some research for the book through the Library, Lessmann sought out the Hall's Facebook page.
"The Research Center at the Hall of Fame helped me out., (so I) wanted to be a fan to show my appreciation for a great museum and research facility" he said. "I have visited the Hall of Fame a few years ago and plan to go back in the future. I went probably 10 years ago when I was in northern New York State. My favorite memory was viewing all of the old memorabilia of Ruth, Gehrig and other greats. It is a great experience that any baseball fan should pursue."
Now as both a Facebook fan and a Hall of Fame member, he can continue re-living the great moments in baseball history with his connection to the game. Make sure you don't miss out on the Facebook action at www.facebook.com/baseballhall.
Trevor Hayes is the editorial production manager at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.

Halloween: A Candy Celebration
Halloween is rapidly approaching, and the kids are already getting excited! Halloween ranks right at the top as far as favorite holidays go. Not only do children get to put on fun costumes, but they also get to collect pillowcases full of candy. What could be better?
As fun as Halloween can be for kids, it can be a challenge for parents. As a parent, how do you keep the holiday fun, but make sure that your child do not overdo it when it comes to candy. Most experts agree that the first step is setting guidelines in advance of the special night.
A Candy Plan
After trick-or-treating, have your children spread their candy on a table or the floor. You can try one of these four approaches:
- Let your child pick 10 favorite pieces to keep. Donate the rest of the candy to a senior citizen center, shelter, or some other charitable organization.
- Let your child trade their candy for a prize such as a toy, book, or a fun event.
- Let your child pick out two or three pieces of candy to have each day. You will probably have to deal with a little whining and begging in the first few days, but stick to your guidelines.
- Let your child pick a set amount of candy for the week. Once the week's allotment is gone, do not let your child fish back in the bag for more.
Or, develop a system that works well in your home. Whichever approach you choose, make sure you let your child know what the plan is before the big night. And if it works well, stick with it every year.
Some Additional Tips
Halloween does not have to scare off good nutrition habits. It just takes a little bit of planning and some dedication on your part. To help Halloween be a more healthful time, follow these tips:
- Serve kids a healthy dinner before trick-or-treating. Make sure the meal includes food that they like. This way, they will be full and less tempted to fill up on candy.
- Offer trick-or-treaters something other than candy. Although it is tempting to give a piece of fruit, like an apple, this is not a good idea. Fruit is difficult for a parent to check for tampering. Instead, give them colorful pencils, stickers, or large erasers.
- Set guidelines about how much candy your children can have. Consider limiting the number of houses they go to, or how much time they can spend in a particular place. Have a set number of days that candy can remain in the house before it gets thrown out. Determine how much candy they can have each day or each week.
- Children should not snack while they are trick-or-treating. Make sure your children understand that you need to check all the treats at home before any are eaten.
- Watch for signs of tampering. These include small pinholes in wrappers and torn or loose packages.
- Parents of young children should get rid of choking hazards. These include gum, peanuts, hard candies, and small toys.
One additional candy tip: Try not to reward your child's good behavior with candy or punish bad behavior by withholding candy. Use non-candy things, like a trip to the park or new crayons, to acknowledge good behavior.

5 Hard work but does the job!scimmietta | 01/03/2009 | See all scimmietta's reviews (1)Set out on this journey highly sceptical but after a boozy weekend away (during which I consumed enough alcohol to sink a small ship) I decided it had to be good for my body. I didn't find the plan easy to stick to and, despite what the book tells you, I was hungry a bit of the time. I also suffered terrible headaches and could have slept non stop through the first three days - such was the overwhelming tiredness. However (and I can't believe I am actually writing this) I woke on day 5 to feel completely energised. Seriously - I felt like I had so much energy and walked the entire day non stop. Even at 1am I was sat reading as I was still buzzing too much to sleep! The last couple of days were a breeze and, whilst completely happy with the extra energy I was enjoying, I found out I had also lost exactly 7lbs. The whole experience has made me contemplate seriously considering keeping on with the juicing in the long run.The juices are very easy on the palate and I even found that some of my favorites turned out to be the ones which, when I first looked at the ingredients, I thought 'yuk'. This isn't a cheap plan to follow however and I think I spent well over £50 on fruit and veg for the seven days (yup, I didn't think that was possible either). The supplements that are reccommended also don't come cheap (you are advised to order them of the web site) but I found equivalent products at Holland & Barrat for less. I thought it was a lot of mumbo jumbo when I started but am definitely in this for the long run now as the results speak for themselves!I got a couple of his other books too and find his whole writing style informative, motivational and interesting without being in the least patronising.Definitely a 5 star rating.
5 7lbs in 7 dayshells1 | 23/11/2008 | See all hells1's reviews (1)Fantastic book changed my life and bad food habits after reading this book , but didnt loose 7 pounds i lost 10 pounds so if you are serious about losing weight buy this book
5 Amazin book, life changing!Amixtika | 02/03/2009 | See all Amixtika's reviews (4)It's amazing to find out just how easy it is to loose weight in such a healthy way, by just juicing fruits and vegetables. The book did what promised, I lost just over 7 lbs and feel so much healthier. I no longer have uncontrollable cravings for junk food either, after the detox my body just no longer craves junk food. This book will change your life!
5 Very pleasedmarinamimi | 12/03/2012 | See all marinamimi's reviews (1)This plan really does work. It's not easy but with the help of the book (literally having to read it everyday to keep your mind focused), it can definintely be achieved. I lost over 7lb in the week, felt amazing and looked great BUT if you don't have a goal or plan for the following weeks you can forget it !!!! I know this from experience as I soon started eating those foods I'd missed and the weight returned (of course it did !!!! durrrrr). This time I've bought the next book - the 14 day plan to follow as soon as the 7 day plan is over so that the weight can stay off and hopefully, my juicing habits will stick with me for life. Good luck to everyone.
4 7lbs in 7 days Super Juice Diet by Jason Vale.sandyjean | 16/01/2015 | See all sandyjean's reviews (8)I started this diet on a Friday and by Monday was feeling very ill with the cold and shakes i also couldn't focus on anything and felt as though i were in a fog( not a good idea in my job). I decided to continue the benefits of juicing but to add a protein meal during the day like chicken soup or eggs with veg. I am a tea and coffee pot so i cut down rather than cut out to just three cups a day. I have not noticed any weight loss but my gums are a lot better than they were. Hope you get on better than i did and good luck.

Octavia Melody!
This is super duper important for my interests(even to my fanfic/book).
And also new music orchestrated by Carbon Maestro, lyrics by Daniel Insgram, and voice by MEMJ.
My only complaint really is that at the end of the chapter he seems to have won. Perhaps I was a bit too quick in speaking of Mandeville being 'right'. I was thinking mostly in context to his little speech about how Equestrian history would play out after he removes Celestia and Luna. Even without his prodding it could certainly go that way, and doubly so under his influence. The thought that it is even plausible is a terrifying one, and in that one regard he may just be 'right.' He certainly didn't prove it to the reader and not to the ponies of Equestria but through sheer force of victory he in a way proved it to himself.
If I may offer some criticism here, one of the last things you want to do is leave your readers feeling hopeless and that things can never ever be put right again. Even if that is the case like the way it is at the end of chapter ten you don't want them left with that impression. What point is there to read on if the villain has won, our heroes are dead, and there is nothing left to hope for? There really isn't. It's for this reason I believe those two FimFiction readers of yours jumped ship. A couple lines to a paragraph at the end giving a sort of epilogue and that somepony somewhere was plotting something or having a meeting, or stirring, or doing something somewhere would have done wonderfully to temper the mood. Just something to indicate that this wasn't in fact the end. Just my two cents anyway.
J-Dude wrote: Yeah, I dunno, I just didn't want to ruin the downbeat nature of that chapter end.
It was the biggest risk I've taken with this story, and I wanted it to be balls-out bold without apology. I fully expected a person or two to jump ship, but I figured that if the readers stuck with me beyond this, it would make the story unforgettable, and be worth it. I figured it would get people talking, though I admit there WAS confusion regarding whether or not the story was over.
I dunno, I actually wrote and rewrote the end of chapter ten a few times. One version DID have a sort of "to be continued" vibe, with Smolder, Spitfire and the soldiers offering a salute to Twilight before helping the M6 carry her, a still unconscious Rarity and the princesses off. Problem with that was, it felt really cornball and tacked something cheesy and cliche onto an otherwise shocking turn of events. I elected to just leave it be. Yeah, probably could be rewritten for clarity.

World merchandise exports grew by 2% in 2013, while trade in services recorded a 5% global increase
A new maritime transport indicator for world seaborne trade by types of cargo and country groups has been added to UNCTADstat statistical portfolio.
The effective exchange rate is an indicator to grasp country's international competitiveness in terms of its foreign exchange rates that cannot be understood by examining only individual exchange rates between the country's currency and other currencies. The term "effective" means that exchange rate changes are not measured against one particular currency, but instead use an average index of a whole basket of currencies, each weighted according to the issuing countries' respective importance as a trade partner.

I've been the moderator of PC's Art&Design section for two years as of, well, two days ago. It's been a pretty great ride, with as many up as there were downs, and back up again. Many moments of personal growth and reflection. Loss and recovery. And a lot of laughter and smiles.
Here's to another February 9th.

As some of you may already know, I've been on the hunt for anything and everything fairy type in Pokemon X & Y. This includes, but is not limited to, fairy friend safaris, shiny fairies, and any fairies of proper ability, nature, and IVs. Now, some of you have been kind enough to indulge my little obsession and for that I'm extremely grateful. However, as is the nature of anyone of an addictive persuasion, I need more. So I'm taking my request to the masses.

hello friends
...Yup! I'm celebrating one year as a mod here on PC! Today may not be the most amazing or inspiring of all celebrations, but it means a lot to me in a funny way. I just want to say thank you to the entire staff team, for being there for me in my dark times, and making my happy moments shine brighter than ever. You guys mean the world to me and if I could I'd bake you all a vanilla-strawberry mini-cake with a tiny bunny inside that automatically loves you and periodically coughs up rose

Driven by a mandate to preserve an old-growth sumac tree in the rear garden, the architects created a curved reclaimed timber-clad addition that left the root structure undisturbed.
Credit: Johan Dehlin
In the London borough of Tower Hamlets, east of the bustling city, a pair of historic weavers' cottages conceals an unlikely addition: A sweeping glass-enclosed ramp that culminates in a curving, timber-clad volume that deftly navigates the existing garden landscape. Designed for The Guardian architecture critic Rowan Moore and his family, the addition was intended "to make the house as accessible as possible," says Stephanie Macdonald, a director of London-based 6a Architects. Moore's wife Lizzie has multiple sclerosis, and was spending more and more time in her wheelchair as the renovation process began. "I don't think she realized how trapped she'd become in one room," Macdonald says.
As it stood, the house was not easily navigable in a wheelchair: The two weavers' cottages were combined into one dwelling in the 1970s, but they were not originally built at the same level, requiring stairs to get from one to the other. A veranda built in the 1980s, which was also accessible only via stairs, connected the two structures, and offered views of the back garden a half-story below.
View from the southeast, showing the wood-clad volume that holds the bathroom and bedroom.
Large windows overlook the deck built around the sumac tree and allow natural light to flood the interior.
Under the circumstances, finding a solution for a typical client would be challenging. Doing so for an architecture critic is downright daunting, but MacDonald was not deterred. "It just meant that we could have a great conversation about it, and that he was really engaged and involved in the details," she says. "We tend to find with clients that the stronger their opinions, the better the project." Here, opinions were in no short supply: In addition to making the house and garden accessible, the clients wanted to highlight their lush plantings and preserve old-growth trees.
Macdonald and her team responded by creating a glass-enclosed ramp that connects the two existing weavers' cottages and slopes down into the garden below. Perpendicular to the ramp, a long and narrow wood structure is clad in reclaimed jarrah timbers—"they were quite old gnarly pieces of wood," Macdonald says, "our contractor stitched them together"—dipping around an existing sumac tree, skirting past a mulberry and a birch tree, and stopping just short of a looming eucalyptus.
Looking back past the addition, the new glazed ramp that was added to the back of the two existing cottages. Because the property has a Grade II historic listing, all changes to the structure had to be designed to be reversible.
Glass-enclosed ramp connecting to two weavers' cottages and leading down to the new addition.
Inside, wood also was used to clad the doors, ceilings, and walls, and all the surfaces were painted white to enhance the daylight that pours through the south-facing windows. The curving hallway culminates in a bathroom and master bedroom, where, MacDonald explains, "you can lie in bed and look out into the garden and see what is going on, bringing the garden inside and making it more present in the internal spaces." And best of all, she adds, "now [Lizzie] can get outside whenever she wants."
The interior of the timber-frame addition is also clad floor-to-ceiling in wood. The panels are painted white to maximize the daylight that enters through the south-facing windows. This hallway leads from a new bedroom suite back to the glazed ramp and historic cottages.

Bamboo is a group of woody perennial evergreen plants of the grass family. Some of its members are giant bamboo, forming by far the largest members of the grass family. Bamboo is the fastest growing woody plant in the world: up to three to four feet a day. This accelerated growth rate allows bamboo to be harvested in three to five years, far more often than the 10 to 20 year harvest cycle of most softwoods. Unlike the environmental damage caused by the deforestation of trees, proper harvesting of bamboo leaves the root system intact, creating little or no topsoil disruption. This renewable, sustainable resource produces 35% more oxygen than its equivalent in trees while reducing carbon dioxide gas that is blamed for global warming. With the tensile strength of steel, it's the strongest growing woody plant in the world.

For years and in the midst of an economic downturn, military and aerospace (mil/aero) analysts have predicted that governments and military leaders will eventually opt to reduce the number of military personnel or "boots on the ground," as they often described, in favor of advanced high-tech platforms, systems, and solutions. That time may now be at hand. The mil/aero community, especially is the U.S., … Read More

How Alan Greenspan Destroyed America
The Guardian / By Dean Baker
The former Fed chair is promoting his new book. He should admit his role in the housing crisis, not insult our intelligence.
October 28, 2013 |
Alan Greenspan will go down in history as the person most responsible for the enormous economic damage caused by the housing bubble and the subsequent collapse of the market. The United States is still down almost 9m jobs from its trend path. We are losing close to $1tn a year in potential output, with cumulative losses to date approaching $5tn.
These numbers correspond to millions of dreams ruined. Families who struggled to save enough to buy a home lost it when house prices plunged or they lost their jobs. Many older workers lose their job with little hope of ever finding another one, even though they are ill-prepared for retirement; young people getting out of school are facing the worst job market since the Great Depression, while buried in student loan debt.
The horror story could have easily been prevented had there been intelligent life at the Federal Reserve Board in the years when the housing bubble was growing to ever more dangerous proportions (2002-2006). But the Fed did nothing to curb the bubble. Arguably, it even acted to foster its growth with Greenspan cheering the development of exotic mortgages and completely ignoring its regulatory responsibilities.
http://www.alternet.org/how-alan-greens ... ed-america
Alan Greenspan is just a puppet who carried out his master's order. The real mastermind is the Feds. (FBI) They hold large quantity of houses in my case and need a low interest rate to maintain the value of this property. So though Greenspan is not on the seat, Bernanky or his follower will still keep the interest rate low. That's why you saw they keep the QE programme on and continue to print money.

Go Mobile: http://mobile.fosters.com Officials warn of carbon monoxide dangers following recent deaths
Saturday, April 6, 2013
BARRINGTON — On Friday Fire Chief Rick Walker said early detection is the key to avoiding carbon monoxide poisoning, and urged residents to ensure they have working carbon monoxide detectors on each floor of their homes.
"The alarm is your only defense to get you up and out," said Hanson. "These are preventable accidents, preventable deaths. If you have a carbon monoxide detector, you have a greater chance of survival."
He said at times, carbon monoxide poisoning could be mistaken for the flu — at first, symptoms generally include drowsiness and headaches, followed by nausea, and, later on, diarrhea.
For homeowners who have generators, Walker recommended they be kept at least 15 feet away from any openings into the home, to lessen the chance of carbon monoxide getting into the residence.Those interested in receiving a carbon monoxide detector donated by First Alert should contact the food pantry, or the town's general assistance department at 664-0155. Residents needing help installing the detectors are encouraged to reach out to the Fire Department, at 664-2241.

Viva Cuba
Hemingway always laid an extra spot at his table for unexpected guests. He entertained movie stars and politicans but never other writers - it was considered bad luck. He owned more than 50 cats. And he only ever write standing up. You could say Hemingway was a bit of an eccentric.
Day 1-3 - Havana
Forget about food and shopping, Havana's not that kind of city. Here it's all about music, dancing, drinking, Che, cars, cigars and a guy called Hemingway.
Day 1
- Get acquainted with Havana
- Pre-departure meeting in the evening
Day 2
- Spend the day exploring (La Habana Vieja) Old Havana
- Perhaps visit a local historic bar and grab a mojito in the evening
Day 3
- Enjoy free time strolling around Havana and taking in the architecture, culture, museums, restaurants and bars
BreakfastDay 4-6 - Santiago de Cuba
It's home to three of Cuba's greatest icons - Afro-Cuban music, Bacardi and the Cuban revolution. Feel like a big kid whilst running around the 16th century Castillo del Morro, where nobody tells you off for mucking around on turrets, drawbridges, dungeons, cannons and tunnels.
- Leave Havana and fly to Santiago de Cuba
- Take a walking tour of this musical, revolutionary city
- Set off to explore the city on your own during free time
BreakfastDay 7 - Camaguey
Your legs must be tired from all the salsa dancing, so rest up on the long drive to Camaguey. Don't stress if you get lost here - the streets were purposely designed as a maze in order to confuse pirates and looters.
- Drive past cattle farms, citrus orchards and sugar plantations before arriving in Camaguey
- Get to know this surprising town, riddled with twisting streets and alleyways
BreakfastDay 8-10 - Trinidad
Cobblestone streets, pastel houses, old Chevroletes, ice cream shops, churches and locals who like nothing better than puffing away on cigars and gossiping. This is Cuba.
- Take a morning tour of the old town centre of Camaguey
- Drive across the interior to historic Trinidad - quintessential Cuba
- Set off on your own exploration of the town
- Perhaps climb the bell tower of the central Museo Nacional de la Lucha Contra Bandidos (a former convent) for great views over the old rooftops and surrounding hills
- Why not visit some of the great local markets
- Get your beach beach fix - it's a short ride in a 'coco taxi'
- Please note that there is a shortage of reliable accommodation in Trinidad and many of the hotels experience constant water and electrical shortages. From time to time it is necessary for us to stay just out of town.
Breakfast | DinnerDay 11 - Santa Clara
This is where Che Guevara and 17 of his men put a bulldozer on the tracks to stop 300 soldiers and train full of ammunition on its way to Havana. They say he's buried inside the walls of the Che Guevara Monument.
- Head inland to the historic city of Santa Clara
- Visit the Revolutionary Plaza and the Che Guevara Monument
BreakfastDay 12 - Havana
You can't leave without taking a trip in a coco cab. It's got a big round shell and looks somewhat like a motorised coconut. It's even more amusing after a few mojitos.
- The trip comes to an end on arrival back in Havana
Breakfast -
What to Know

Viva Cuba
Virginia - Qatar, 13 May, 2013
Overall, the trip was excellent. It was just the right group size and pace. My only criticism is the cost of some of the additional options. We seemed to have too much time in Santiago de Cuba however the additional day trips planned by our guide were fantastic. This itinerary, or at least part of it, should have been included in the trip.
Viva Cuba
Angela - Australia, 13 May, 2013
My trip to Cuba was amazing. My only regret was not doing the 15 day tour, as after 12 days I still wanted more. Cuba left me amazed, inspired and exhilarated. Our tour guide, JJ, was the most patient man on earth and couldn't have been more helpful to everyone in the group. I learnt so much about Cuba, and after experiencing its culture and all it has to offer it now rates as one of my top destinations in the world. Viva Cuba!

Digital Flash Spy Stick Voice Recorder; new swivel design
This USB Stick Voice Recorder has a brand new 'swivel' design with increased audio recording times and the option to upgrade to include earphone use. The USB stick is cleverly disguised to appear and operate as a fully functional USB stick for storing important files, pictures or any other relevant material whilst the second mechanism acts as a dedicated voice recorder to discreetly and silently capture crystal clear audio over a 10 feet radius.
You can carry the USB stick on your set of keys just like an ordinary storage device or casually leave behind on a table / shelf to capture those important meetings, interviews, dictation or verbal slander within seconds.
As standard with all our USB stick models there are absolutely NO markings, flashing lights, beeping noises or moving parts whilst recording is in progress assuring complete peace of mind when making covert recordings! Each model has a discreet micro slide switch for its entire working mechanism. There is no software to install and no setup procedures - just Plug and Play technology.
Upgrade to the earphone version and you can playback recorded audio directly through earphones without the need of a computer. This is a convenient way to listen to your recorded content even whilst on the move!
To see the earphone connection device for this upgraded version, please
click here
The earphone version can be selected from the drop down menu above for just an extra £10.
Please Note:
The device supports an earphone connection and comes supplied with an earphone controller - but for hygiene reasons we do not supply actual earphones.
You can record for up to eight (8) continuous hours (an increase of three (3) hours over the previous version) as either one long audio file or you can start / stop recordings as separate audio files. Should you forget to stop the recording, the datastick will automatically store the recorded file in WAV format at the end of its power supply so that you do not lose any important data.
To recharge the device and / or playback the stored recordings simply insert the data-stick into your computer USB port and it will automatically open the Windows Media Player. You can now play, save, archive or email audio recordings.
All of our USB sticks are professionally manufactured to our own specification and come in various models giving you the choice to select the best recorder for your needs.

Comments about Mountain Hardwear Women's Sunstone™ Backpack:
Owned Jansport for years with no trouble. Decide to try this brand since I liked the arrangement of pockets, straps, etc. My Jansport packs all lasted more than 15 years with no breaks. However, the pack I purchased from Mountain hardware broke in less than 2. The strap at the top of the pack, which is very useful for grabbing the pack tore off.

You both may project an image of being hard and disciplined, and this could make each of you appear uncaring. Although you two are romantic at heart, you do not allow your emotions to manifest on your outer surfaces.
Each of you has many qualities and resources that are both complimentary and supplementary. You also both have a desire to help each other grow in life. You may need to identify and be aware of the areas in which each of you lack.
Karmic Pull: [Excellent] There will be perfect accord in temperaments between both of you. You will be loyal and derive immense happiness from each other.
Mutual Gunas: [Good] You both realize and acknowledge the strengths of one another, and also know how to deal with each other's weaknesses. A decent level of understanding persists between both of you.

SINGAPORE - FEBRUARY 08: A family walks past a lantern display with giant balloons in hands at the 2013 River Hongbao Festival at The Float at Marina Bay on February 8, 2013 in Singapore. This annual event is an integral part of Singapore's Chinese New Year celebrations and showcases larger-than-life lantern displays (designed locally and handcrafted by China craftsmen), intricate handicrafts, and crowd pleasing local delights and foreign delicacies from Guangdong at the largest outdoor Food Street in Singapore, as well as a myriad of other activities.
