"Dozens" of civilians were killed in a rebel shelling attack on Monday on a convoy of refugees trying to flee war-torn eastern Ukraine, a top Ukrainian defence official said.
Col Andriy Lysenko, a spokesman for Ukraine's National Security Council, told reporters he did not have an exact figure but said dozens of people have died, including children. The separatist rebels fighting the Ukrainian government had no immediate comment on his statement.
The barrage took place between the towns of Khryashchuvate and Novosvitlivka, which lie on the main road leading to Russia from the besieged rebel-held city of Luhansk, he said.
"Many people were killed, among them women and children," Col Lysenko said. "We are not able to count the death toll at this point." When asked about a rough estimate of deaths, he said, "Dozens".
That road is likely to be the one that a disputed Russian aid convoy would take if Ukraine allows it into the country, heading for Luhansk.
Fighting across eastern Ukraine has forced nearly 344,000 people to flee their homes, according to UN figures released on Friday. The UN says about 155,800 have left for other places inside Ukraine while 188,000 more have crossed into Russia.
The flow of refugees only seems to be growing. The UN Office for the Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs said more than 22,000 people fled the main rebel-held city of Donetsk last week compared to 6,200 the week before.
City officials have released even higher numbers. At least 300,000 of Donetsk's pre-war population of one million have left their homes, while Luhansk has only 250,000 of its 420,000 people left, local authorities say.
Residents in Luhansk have had no running water, power or phone connections for 16 days. Basic foods are in short supply, leading to long lines outside shops, city hall said yesterday, adding that fighting continues in and around the city.
The International Committee of the Red Cross, which is expected to take responsibility for the Russian aid convoy when it enters Ukraine, has demanded security guarantees from all sides, including the rebels, for the mission into eastern Ukraine. There was no indication that the guarantees had been given.
The humanitarian aid convoy of over 200 trucks from Russia has been watched with suspicion by Ukraine and the West, especially since Ukrainian forces have been winning back significant territory from the rebels in the last few weeks. They suggest it could be used by Russia to send help to the separatists – or to delay the government's advances with a timely ceasefire.
Russia's Foreign Minister, meanwhile, said he expects the Russian humanitarian aid mission to enter Ukraine in the near future.
Speaking yesterday at a news conference in Berlin, where he met a day earlier with his counterparts from Ukraine, France and Germany, the Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said all questions regarding the mission had been answered and that an agreement had been reached with Ukraine and the ICRC.
It was not clear if Mr Lavrov was referring to the security guarantees. The fighting in eastern Ukraine began in mid-April, a month after Russia annexed Ukraine's southern peninsula of Crimea.

BRIDGEVIEW, Ill. — The Fire outshot them, hit two posts, and had the ball in their attacking third for much of the game.
But for the Portland Timbers, who beat Chicago 1-0 Saturday at Toyota Park, it felt great just to get a road win.
While it wasn't necessarily pretty, Jack Jewsbury was upbeat after the Timbers' first road victory in eight tries snapped their seven-game unbeaten streak.
"The feeling's great in this locker room tonight," Jewsbury said, with hip hop music blaring in the background.
"It's something we've had on our minds for awhile. That's what we've been looking for all year and it's good to get that monkey off of our back."
Jewbury scored his career-best fifth goal of the season on a 25th-minute penalty kick after Gonzalo Segares took down Jorge Perlaza just inside the penalty area.
"It's been a great time since I've come here to Portland," said Jewsbury, who scored only 13 goals in eight years before he was acquired by the Timbers in the offseason.
"They've given me more freedom than I've had in the past in terms of going forward and taking set pieces whether that's out of the run of play or on penalties or whatever."
The scene in the Fire locker room was the polar opposite of Portland's. Patrick Nyarko sat for five minutes with his head in his hands after the Fire failed to come up with three points for the 17th time in their last 18 league games.
"This was a very winnable game," Nyarko said.
"We thought it was a questionable call on the PK … We had a couple of unlucky bounces."
Early on, Dominic Oduro had two chances to set up a teammate in the box with a well-placed cross, but both fell harmlessly to a defender. Cory Gibbs and Orr Barrouch each chances to level the score, but their shots bounced off the post in the 44th and 70th minute.
The Fire were cut to ten men in the 65th minute when Yamith Cuesta drew his second yellow card. Still, Marco Pappa twice challenged Troy Perkins from outside the box in the waning minutes, but the Timbers goalkeeper sprawled for one and kick-saved the other.
Though visibly frustrated, Fire coach Frank Klopas had little to say about the two crippling calls, both controversial.
"The referee was there, he makes the call. Am I happy with it? No," Klopas said.
"I felt the guys put a lot into the game. I think we had to have a better start and sometimes we have to have things happen to us in order to have that urgency."
The Fire hope they can right themselves as they prime for a second-half run, now five points out of a playoff spot.
The Timbers, on the other hand, pulled to within two points of a playoff berth with the win.
"There are going to be times in the season when you hit that little bit of a lull. We hit that for a month and it was just trying to get out of it as fast as we could," Jewsbury said.
"I think halfway through, the first seventeen games, we felt like we were still in the mix. We felt like we weren't too far our but we needed to right the ship pretty quick. We did that here tonight, and hopefully we'll continue to keep the streak going for a little while."
Portland Padre
Perkins Kick save was great, and the Cross bar and posts were a great help twice. Johnson the Fire Keeper was big too, he kept the Fire in the Match with some brave keeping!
Thought Chicago was the better team. That's the way the league works sometimes though. You get punished for not burying your chances.
Houston fans are saying "THERE'S the Oduro we remember!"
No word yet, out indefinitely is all I have seen so far.
Yeah, looked like an Onyewu injury.
agree. Oduro has some much good stuff but he is cursed when it comes to getting the ball in the net. I wish him well.
I hope it's obvious to all PT fans that Perkins is at least the second best, if not the best player they have.
I've seen a couple whines about his salary from people who look at a simplistic stat like goals against without taking into account that he's working with probably the worst defensive 4 in the league in front of him, guys who every game seem surprised to learn that opposing forwards are not required to stand motionless next to their marker and are instead permitted to make runs into open space.
Perkins' distribution is admittedly weak, but his shot-stopping has been fantastic, so that's nitpicking for a team that is regularly starting a lot of mediocre or worse outfield players.
This Guy
Marcelin should be given a suspension for his outrageous dive in the 82nd minute. He did a full pirouette, like a ballerina, it was impressive but the worst dive I've seen all season.
Perkins is so easily the reason why we got that win last night. He is the only bright spot on our defense. People used to complain that Gleeson got ripped off when Perkins came back into the lineup. Perkins' ability to get a shut out with our back line is insane. I would say he is one of the on form keepers in the league right now.
I am pretty sure it is very clear to Timbers supporters he is not overpaid. Cooper on the other hand…
Were you drunk when you watched the game? Replays clearly show he was being held on that play and executed the "pirouette" to get out of the hold. He may not have needed to go to ground bit it was a clear foul on the part of Chicago.
believe it or not, houston fans, oduro has arguably been the fire's best player this season and – bad finisher or not – has netted five goals so far making him (tied for) our leading scorer. he may not be good enough for houston, but he's certainly good enough for the fire this year!
Disagree, I think Brunner has been very solid.
Major League Soccer, Minor League Ref's. Enough said.

The Role of Media Distrust in Partisan Voting

As an institution, the American news media have become highly unpopular in recent decades. Yet, we do not thoroughly understand the consequences of this unpopularity for mass political behavior. While several existing studies find that media trust moderates media effects, they do not examine the consequences of this for voting. This paper explores those consequences by analyzing voting behavior in the 2004 presidential election. It finds, consistent with most theories of persuasion and with studies of media effects in other contexts, that media distrust leads voters to discount campaign news and increasingly rely on their partisan predispositions as cues. This suggests that increasing aggregate levels of media distrust are an important source of greater partisan voting.

The gender gap — boys are more than twice as likely as girls to take ADHD medication — is closing among adults as more women 20 to 44 years old are diagnosed and treated, says Medco chief medical officer Robert Epstein.
About 1 out of 100 adults 20 to 44 were on ADHD medication in 2004, up from about 1 out of 200 in 2000, according to prescription records for 2.4 million people insured through Medco. The number is a representative sample of the 60 million Medco members, Epstein says.
For every 1,000 insured adults, ADHD medicines were prescribed for:
Ages 20-44 Women: 4 per 1,000 in 2000 9 per 1,000 in 2004
Men: 6 per 1,000 in 2000 11 per 1,000 in 2004
For every 1,000 insured children and teenagers, ADHD medicines were prescribed for:
Ages 0-9 Girls: 7 per 1,000 in 2000 12 per 1,000 in 2004 Boys: 20 per 1,000 in 2000 34 per 1,000 in 2004
Ages 10-19
Girls: 19 per 1,000 in 2000 34 per 1,000 in 2004
Boys: 56 per 1,000 in 2000 80 per 1,000 in 2004 Source: Medco Health Solutions
More kids and teens also are taking attention-deficit drugs. The number has increased from about 3% to 4.4% over four years, the report shows.
The surge in adult use came amid growing direct-to-consumer advertising and the Food and Drug Administration's approval for the first time of drugs to treat adult ADHD, says pediatrician Andrew Adesman.
"Doctors are becoming more comfortable using these medicines with adults," says Adesman, chief of developmental and behavioral pediatrics at Schneider Children's Hospital in New Hyde Park, N.Y.
Although estimates vary, many children with ADHD continue to have attention-deficit symptoms into adulthood, studies suggest.
"It's nice to see that more adults are recognizing the symptoms and getting help," says David Goodman, a psychiatry professor at Johns Hopkins University and director of the Adult Attention Deficit Disorder Center of Maryland.
Children often outgrow the hyperactivity part of the disorder, which is more common among boys than it is in girls, Goodman says. But difficulties with concentrating and staying organized, the symptoms more common among girls, tend to persist into adulthood, he adds.
"These symptoms may be easier to ignore in girls but become more prominent with mounting adult responsibilities," Goodman says.
Though some experts applaud the increasing role of medication, others say pills aren't the only way to treat symptoms.
Assertions that ADHD is even a disorder are open to question, says David Stein, a psychologist in Farmville, Va., and author of Unraveling the ADD/ADHD Fiasco: Successful Parenting Without Drugs.
"It's a bogus disease," Stein says. "The research is so compromised by drug company money and influence that it's not independent."
More people have trouble concentrating because of "information overload," Stein says.
He treats kids and adults using behavior modification and teaches them how to create calmer environments.
Medication "masks creativity and the natural strengths" of people who have attention-deficit symptoms, says Kirk Martin of Celebrate!ADHD, a counseling and coaching service in Ashburn, Va.
These adults often are much happier when they move from detail-oriented to more entrepreneurial jobs, he says.
Martin also counsels parents in how to deal with kids' ADHD symptoms "but allow them to keep their creative edge" without use of drugs.

Don't Know What To Do?
- Article Summary
- NFS Lands in California
- Mexican DTO's in California
- Marijuana Cultivation in Kentucky
- Cannabis Seizures on National Forest System Lands in Other States
- DOI Lands
Marijuana Cultivation
Much of the outdoor cannabis cultivation in the United States occurs in remote areas on federal lands. A considerable number of cannabis plants are eradicated each year on NFS lands and, to a lesser extent, DOI lands. The number of cannabis plants eradicated on NFS lands increased from 2002 (597,797) to 2003 (729,481) and far surpassed eradication on DOI lands in both 2002 (168,645) and 2003 (263,356).
Law enforcement reporting indicates that cannabis cultivation sites have been discovered on NFS and DOI lands throughout the United States. However, most cannabis cultivation on federal lands appears to be occurring in California and Kentucky, where a large number of plants have been eradicated in recent years. Marijuana producers cultivate cannabis on federal lands in plots that vary in size from a few plants, cultivated by independent marijuana producers for personal use, to tens of thousands of plants cultivated by organized criminal groups for wholesale-level distribution.
Officials from the California Department of Justice report that under the state's Campaign Against Marijuana Planting (CAMP) program, law enforcement officers seized a record 466,054 cannabis plants in 182 raids in 32 counties during the fiscal year (FY) 2003 eradication season (July through October). Seventy-five percent of the plants seized were growing on public lands, and 84 percent were, according to law enforcement sources, from grows operated specifically by Mexican DTOs. Twelve of the grows contained more than 10,000 plants each. Officials also seized 50 weapons and arrested 35 individuals during the raids. Agencies involved in the eradication operations included California Department of Justice, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), BLM, Forest Service, and California National Guard, as well as numerous county sheriff's departments and local police departments throughout the state. The CAMP eradication figures illustrate the trend toward Mexican DTOs increasingly growing cannabis in California to avoid smuggling marijuana across the U.S.-Mexico border. According to program statistics, the percentage of plants seized from grows operated by Mexican DTOs increased from 69 percent in FY2001 to 74 percent in FY2002 to 84 percent in FY2003. In addition, officials report a significant increase in the number of plants cultivated in large cannabis grows, which typically are operated by Mexican DTOs. According to CAMP authorities, in the late 1990s large grows typically contained 3,000 to 5,000 plants; in 2003 large grows typically contained 5,000 to 10,000 plants, with several having 30,000 to 40,000 plants. Correspondingly, marijuana seizures within 150 miles of the California portion of the U.S.-Mexico border have decreased during this time.
NFS Lands in California
California is a significant domestic marijuana source area, and producers cultivate substantial cannabis crops on federal lands within the state, particularly on NFS lands. According to Forest Service reporting, 8 of the 10 leading national forests for cannabis eradication both in 2002 and 2003 were in California, stretching from the Cleveland National Forest near San Diego to the Six Rivers National Forest near the Oregon border, and they accounted for 420,866 of the 597,797 cannabis plants eradicated from NFS lands in 2002 (70%) and 540,567 of 729,481 cannabis plants eradicated in 2003 (74%). Once the site of the largest cannabis eradication on NFS lands, California's Cleveland National Forest, located near San Diego, ranked second to Kentucky's Daniel Boone National Forest. Nonetheless, the number of cannabis plants eradicated annually from the Cleveland National Forest alone exceeds that eradicated from lands in most individual states.
Mexican DTO's in California
Law enforcement and Forest Service reporting indicates that Mexican DTOs control a significant portion of cannabis cultivation on federal lands in California and finance large cultivation sites (typically 10,000 to 30,000 plants). Mexican DTOs often employ and arm undocumented aliens from Mexico to live in camps at grow sites and tend the plots. Caucasian independent producers also produce marijuana on federal lands in California--particularly in Northern California--and typically are longtime residents who run family-based operations or deal with brokers as part of a confederation of local cannabis cultivators.
Marijuana Cultivation in Kentucky
Kentucky also is a significant domestic marijuana source area, and much of the cannabis cultivation in Kentucky occurs on federal lands, as it does in California. The Daniel Boone National Forest, located in Eastern Kentucky, led all National Forests for cannabis plants eradicated, accounting for 29 percent (213,229 of 729,481) of cannabis plants eradicated on NFS lands nationwide in 2003.
Many marijuana producers in Kentucky are residents of the area, mostly Caucasians, who run family-based, vertical operations (controlling cultivation through distribution) or who deal with a broker as part of a loose confederation of marijuana producers. According to the Forest Service, these groups and individuals typically maintain smaller plots of cannabis than do Mexican DTOs and usually travel long distances from their homes to sites scattered throughout remote areas of federal lands in order to tend their plots.
Cannabis Seizures on National Forest System Lands in Other States
DOI Lands. Data regarding cannabis eradication on DOI lands is not available on a state-by-state or regional level. However, DOI eradication data for 2003 show that of the 263,356 cannabis plants eradicated on DOI lands, most were eradicated on lands managed by BLM (116,661 plants), followed by BIA (99,778 plants), NPS (46,171 plants), and FWS (527 plants).

SOUNDSHAPER is a free PC interface for CDP, the suite of sound transformation tools developed since 1986 by the COMPOSERS' DESKTOP PROJECT.
The new version of Soundshaper fully supports the latest CDP Release 7, which is also a FREE DOWNLOAD.
CDP has a huge range of processes and tools for manipulating, creating and altering sounds to make music, many of which are not available elsewhere. Soundshaper makes CDP quick and easy to use. Together, SOUNDSHAPER and CDP comprise one of the most comprehensive experimental sound design packages available. READ MORE
Soundshaper's sound processing engine, CDP, covers every area of sound design. CDP is not a real-time system: all processes alter an existing file and write a new one. However, on modern machines, a sequence of CDP processes can often be run faster than real-time.
CDP is very strong on granular and textural techniques, and processes which reorganize the order of events. It also has a large range of spectral processes, which alter a sound's time-varying frequencies: the inner 'guts' of its timbre. You can also separately extract fomants (peaks in the spectrum) or pitch, and manipulate or combine these characteristics in new and unusual ways.
CDP Release 6 (2010) introduced many processes for working with multi-channel sound, including innovative sound diffusion programs as well as spectral splitting and rhythm-transforming functions, and a fast spectrally-based convolver. The latest version (CDP7) has over 30 new functions which greatly enhance the overall provision in several key areas.
For a fuller description of what CDP can do, click here: MORE ABOUT CDP
To download CDP, click here: CDP Release 7 (PC). Links to recent revisions are on our NEWS page.
Soundshaper is built around a multi-process environment, with easy construction of patches in an innovative patch grid (see screenshot above). Patches can be saved and recalled as fully-editable presets, for use with different source files. As you build a patch, you are working with processed sounds, so you can hear the effects of the process chain at any stage.
Soundshaper has been extensively upgraded to support multiple channels, multiple parameter sets and up to 16 sound-streams. CDP's various file types are converted seamlessly behind the scenes and output files are saved as temporary files, ready for auditioning, viewing, editing and further processing. Files can be saved permanently at any point and any process can be edited or replaced with another function. READ MORE
The new version of Soundshaper (Sep. 2015, rev. May 2016) has full support for CDP 6 and 7 and is compatible with all versions of Windows from XP through to Windows 10. Although currently available only for the PC, there are plans to port Soundshaper to MacOSX and possibly Linux as well.
Download Soundshaper from the Downloads Page , then follow the instructions for installation.
The former products Soundshaper Pro and Soundshaper Lite have been withdrawn. However, e-mail support is still available to registered users of Soundshaper Pro. New users are currently not supported, except for questions about setting up, and new registrations are not currently available. However, all Soundshaper users are welcome to submit bug reports and ideas for further improvement by e-mail (see Contacts Page).
The Soundshaper Manual is available as a separate download: Soundshaper Manual.
The manual has been fully updated for Soundshaper 4.4 (May 2016).
|Latest Download: SOUNDSHAPER 4.4.06 freeware, but requires CDP software.

I'd like to keep the site alive if possible so I'm hoping there are some interested parties. I'd give you the domain and access to the program that allows you to update and maintain the website. The program is very easy to use so you don't have to know all the HTML code and be a computer whiz or anything like that. General knowledge should be sufficient. I'd also give you control over the TWITTER account associated with the site but unfortunately you'd have to create your own new Facebook page, but I would of course forward everyone on to it.
If you are interested in taking over please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com with your proposal and ideas for your takeover of the site. Thanks guys and thank you to all of you for keeping us up to date over the past few days!!

Spike Lee
Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers
Printer-Friendly version
When I think of Basketball, I think of Michael Jordan (he may be a little old school, but it's better than saying Denis Rodman or Shaq, both of which made really bad movies that make me want to puke). I read a caption in a magazine once that struck a chord in me, and for this reason, I'm able to appreciate Basketball enough to enjoy this film. It was a picture of Michael Jordan with his head down and the caption read, "If I didn't play Basketball, would I still be your hero?" It may not sound like much, but as I writer, I found it to be one of the most powerful quotes I've ever read. Kobe has that spirit; he's a natural leader, a nice guy and someone people look up to. You couldn't ask for a better teammate.
I have tremendous respect for athletes, be it in Basketball or otherwise. In this case, one of my favorite aspects of this film is watching Kobe do his pregame prep while listening to the buzz of the TV as well as the many people's predictions. The amount of pressure on people with his kind of talent can be brutal, and I can't imagine prepping for such a big game while listening to the TV preach about how well you're GOING TO DO, or HOW GREAT YOU ARE and HOW YOU'LL CARRY THIS TEAM TO THE PROMISELAND. That's a lot to put on anyone's plate, mentally, physically and psychologically. Personally, I couldn't listen to all that before I went out, so my hat's off to Kobe, the man's earned his MVP and superstar status as far as I'm concerned.
Deleted Scenes: I wouldn't quite call this a deleted scene; it's just footage from the fourth quarter press conference. They all look the same to me.
Photo Montage: Four and a half minutes of game shots set up like a slideshow. They sure do manage to capture the intensity of the game.
Music Video: The music video "Levitate" by Bruce Hornsby. It's not much of a video as it is this song playing to the game footage.
E: 60-Behind the Scenes: A quick two minutes of key game footage with Spike Lee giving us his two cents. The man loves his Basketball.
Previews: There are a couple movie trailers, a Blu-ray commercial, a funny Shaq commercial and the choice to watch the game "as is" without Kobe's commentary. This film also comes with an Upper Deck Kobe Bryant Basketball card.

3rd zone not working properly
I purchased a house with a 3 zone heating system in it. Zones one and two work perfectly, the 3rd zone doesn't work right. First let me say, all thermostats are brand new, all zone valves are brand new (bases also), and the circulating pump is brand new. All parts are TACO.
When the thermostat in zone three calls for heat, nothing happens. Oddly enough, if you turn the thermostats OFF for zones one and two, and then throw the manual lever on the zone valve for the third zone, two minutes later the circulating pump kicks in and zone three has heat (that is with the thermostat still calling for heat). Throw the manual lever on the zone valve off (with the thermostat still calling for heat), and the pump stops.
My first guess would be the thermostat is bad, but that's why I put a new one in. Then i thought the top half of the zone valve was bad, so I replaced that. When it still didn't work, i thought a piece of the old zone valve might have falling into the base, so I replaced both the base and the top half of the zone valve.
Please, any help with this would be great!
May be wired wrong.

But I understand budgets are tight, so...
Jim, are you actually coming or not?
JD's family on his Dad's side have said they'd like to get together with us for dinner, so the suburbs would be best, at least for Friday night's dinner. I'm friends with them on Facebook, so I can get in touch with them. I met them at JD's wake and funeral, and they're good people. His grandfather is even a bit of a gearhead, having had a couple of cool motorcycles and had a 90s DeVille Concours, which is where JD got his affinity for Cadillacs. And his aunt has a Bumblebee Camaro, which I'll make sure to ask she drives for Jimmy's benefit.
I'm taking that Friday off, so I'll leave St. Paul around 9 or so. That way I'll just miss the traffic jam up here and hopefully beat the jam down in Chicago, and still have time to BS around before we meet at the hotel like we did the last two years.

It is truly a challenging task to discover the weight loss pills that act fast and deliver notable results. The majority of them promoted over the Internet are, in many cases, ineffective products or fraudulent business schemes, which depend a lot on intensive promotional campaigns. Individuals tempted by the claims of glossy ads purchase them just to understand afterwards that they have been fooled.
Not everything is lost. Several of these weight loss pills may really deliver the goods; however, unluckily they are not free from dangerous side effects. For this reason, numerous pills to lose weight frequently get prohibited by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) the very moment they are introduced to the market. On the other hand, you will also come across lots of low-calorie tablets which are harmless and devoid of side effects, but you cannot purchase them without prescription. Therefore, it is obvious that people will seek a desperate help in this regard. Is there any tablet that reduces weight quickly and still doesn't call for any prescription to purchase it?
Luckily, the answer is yes. There are diet pills that are harmless, legitimate and fast-acting. Phen375 is amongst the elite class of dietary supplements having innumerable worldwide happy users who swear by its effectiveness. Several unbiased Phen375 reviews have rated it positively as well.
In the first place, this appetite suppressant brings forth extremely quick outcomes. As a matter of fact, it has the power to assist you in shedding 3 to 5 pounds for each week. Secondly, it is absolutely legitimate and produced in a lab approved by FDA in California. In addition, there is no need for any prescription to purchase it from the drug store or online. Phen375 is totally safe and devoid of any terrible side effects which almost all weight loss pills normally have.
How does Phen375 function? Well, the working of a supplement to lose pounds is fundamentally dependent upon the ingredients it comprises. A number of them suppress appetite, some burn fat, whereas some others boost the metabolic process to burn more fat, and some inhibit the absorption of fat.
According to Phen375 reviews, it enjoys a massive edge over other dietary tablets since it works to reduce weight in more than one ways. It stamps down appetite, augments metabolism, aids the body to burn excess fat and keeps the fat from accumulating further in the body.
Why should one opt for this weight loss pill? People may debate that there are lots of other dietary supplements that act quickly. So, what is the uniqueness about this tablet? The answer is straightforward. Phen375 reviews state that you must go for it since no other fat burners provide the same number of benefits as this does. You can purchase it on the web without violating the rule, because it is secure and officially authorized. You need not rush to a doctor to fetch a prescription so as to buy this tablet, and most importantly, it is one supplement that lives up to its promise. Try it and you will feel the difference!

A JUSTIN Bieber fan this week got her hands on the ultimate piece of pop
memorabilia – the teen heartthrob's pet hamster.
The 18-year-old made the bizarre offering during an autograph session,
following his performance at the Jingle Ball in Atlanta on Wednesday.
After posing for photos with screaming teenage girls, he singled one out and
handed her a cage, containing his beloved pet PAC.
The whole thing was captured on camera by TMZ.com. In footage Justin can been
heard telling her: "You gotta take care of PAC," and the girl
replying: "I will take care of him."
It marks a sad end to the star's double act with PAC.
The pair have been inseparable since Justin adopted the hamster in October.
They've travelled on tour together and appeared in a string of pictures,
published on Justin's Instagram account.
The singer even set up a Twitter account for his furry friend, attracting
5,000 followers.
Let's hope PAC finds a good home – and doesn't end up on eBay.

How is the V-belt tension adjusted (Hoover Model U6439-900)or how do I know if the tension is correct?

Forex: GBP/USD: Sterling plunges 250 pips lower on unexpected GDP contraction
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - The Pound is dropping like a stone, retreating from 6-week high and giving away about 250 pips against the Dollar after Preliminary UK GDP figures showing an unexpected contraction on the third quarter.
British economy contracted at a 0.4% pace in the third quarter and at a 5.2% pace year on year, according to preliminary estimates, to disappoint markets which expected a 0.1% quarterly advance and a 4.7% year on year decline.
GBP/USD advances at levels below 1.6440 after dropping about 250 pips from 1.6685, fresh 6-weeks high before GDP figures were released. At the moment, next potential support levels lie at 1.6435 Oct 19 high, and below here, 1.6400 and 1.4340/60.

CIIS Public Programs & Performances and Amoeba Music present Grammy Award–winning Beninoise singer-songwriter Angelique Kidjo on Saturday, June 21st at the Nourse Theater in San Francisco.
Born in the West African country of Benin and raised in the busy port city of Cotonou, Angelique Kidjo was surrounded by a multi-hued world of music, dance, and art - from the rich sounds, rhythms, and story telling of traditional Beninese culture to the far-ranging fascinations of international pop, rock, blues, Latin music and jazz. Add to that the blessing of parents who honored creativity and supported Angelique's artistic goals unconditionally, encouraging her to give free rein to the talents she began to reveal as a six year old.
Expressing those talents to the fullest, she became a highly visible international artist while she was still in her 20s. Throughout the '90s and beyond, she has performed globally, winning honor after honor, including a Grammy, while using her visibility to campaign for women's rights, provide educational opportunities for girls, and support environmental initiatives.
On Eve, her Savoy Records debut named for her own mother as well as the mythical "mother of all living," Angelique Kidjo builds on her evolving legacy with a 13-track, three interlude set of melodically rich, rhythmically powerful expressions of female empowerment. These songs become all the more intimate and emotionally urgent with Kidjo's dynamic collaborations with traditional women's choirs from Kenya and various cities and villages in Benin. The singer and her newfound native vocalists sing in a wide array of native Beninese languages, including Fon (Kidjo's first language), Yoruba, Goun, and Mina.

CIIS Public Programs & Performances and Amoeba Music present virtuoso sitar player Shujaat Hussain Khan on Friday, May 2nd at the Nourse Theater in San Francisco.
Shujaat Hussain Khan belongs to the Imdad Khan gharana of the sitar and is the seventh in an unbroken line from a family that has produced many musical masters. He is the son and disciple of the master sitarist Ustad Vilayat Khan. His musical pedigree continues back through his grandfather Ustad Inayat Khan, his great-grandfather Ustad Imdad Khan, and his great-great-grandfather Ustad Sahebdad Khan - all leading artists of their generations.
At the age of three, Shujaat began practicing on a specially made small sitar, and by the time he was six the child prodigy started giving public performances. Since then he has performed at all the prestigious music festivals in India and he has traveled around the world performing in Asia, Africa, North America, and Europe.
Shujaat has his own unique style of playing. His approach to rhythm is largely intuitive, fresh and spontaneous, always astonishing his audiences. He was recently a visiting artist at UCLA and currently lives in New Delhi, touring throughout India, the United States, and Europe each year.

He has produced five solo albums of which his most recent, CINEMA, won the best fusion album award in India at the GIMA (Global Indian Music Awards) in 2012 and debuted at #1 on the Itunes World Music charts. Karsh Kale has also developed a reputation as a genre-bending collaborator, which has led him to work with some of the most renowned artists from around the globe including his musical hero Zakir Hussain, Pandit Ravi Shankar, Herbie Hancock, Sting, Anoushka Shankar, Lenny Kravitz, DJ Spooky, and many many others. He was recently invited to perform at the White House and was introduced by President Obama himself. Find out more about Karsh Kale: Classical Science Fiction on April 11th HERE and get tickets HERE!
Today, the world lost a giant of music, as Maestro Paco de Lucia passed away, at 66 years young, from a heart attack at a resort in Mexico. "Paco lived as he wished and died playing with his children beside the sea," said a statement from de Lucia's family published on the websites of Spanish newspapers.
Paco took the Flamenco style and tradtition of the elders in the genre and blasted off into his own universe, to some early criticism, owning every note of his huge legacy and backing up all his moves with incredible chops and technique. I had many unforgettable chances to see Paco in person doing his thing, each a unique and unpredictable experience, except for the sheer technical mastery of his instrument always present. I also took away from these shows Paco's palpable confidence, his air of "badass"-ness that deservedly asserted his own internal awareness of what he was doing in the moment. I lament his passing, and will miss him tremendously. Adios, Paco.
Fortunately we have much in the visual and audio realms to see and hear Paco, and to mark the absolutely inimitable place that Paco held in the music landscape. The 2-CD set, En Vivo Conciertos, won a Grammy and is a most enjoyable album, displaying Paco's genius live, and represents the last tour he did almost exactly. Amoeba has some true gems of Paco's here.

You guys, I'm not dead. I know – like I'd ever get that lucky!
It's been around 8,888 years since my last post here on the Amoeblog (give or take 8,888 years), which begs the question: What have I been doing?
Well, maybe it doesn't beg the question. Maybe it just prompts you to politely inquire so I don't feel unwanted and insecure. I'll take it! Beggars can't be choosers.
Actually, that's not factual. Beggars can be choosers. In fact, it's in a beggar's best interest to consciously prioritize a great many things the rest of us FANTASTICALLY WEALTHY people take for granted.
For example: I'm often faced with a choice between whether I want to buy organic cilantro, versus non-organic cilantro. While I normally prefer organic produce, cilantro raised without chemical black magic is, in my experience, always filthy – and not "Oh, this potato needs to be rinsed first" dirty; organic cilantro requires a scrubbing akin to a Karen Silkwood workplace shower, which the culinary herb's delicate leaves do not endure well.
