Together, youngsters like Dryer and Carter represent the growing movement of tweenie pop music that has begun to creep up through the ranks of singles charts across the world. Comfortably situated in the competitive world of late-'90s pop music, pre-teen pop seeks to satisfy the multitudes of braces wearing, Pokmon card-hoarding kiddies for whom the Backstreet Boys and Britney are just not enough...

Haters, be disappointed. Old age has been kind to Green Day. Even as its members creep toward the wizened age of 30, the band still manages to be plenty spirited, not to mention more musically adept than ever before. Friday they even seemed like genuinely nice guys, to boot - projecting, if you will, an almost fatherly aura over the crowd...

...enriching the underlying soil. Once cleared, the acidic dirt of the forest floor is exhausted after a few harvests. That in turn causes peasant farmers to keep moving and sell their barren holdings to cattle ranchers looking to buy cleared land on the cheap. So the devastation continues to creep forward. All over the Amazon, I saw vast areas of degraded land where before there was a virtually unbroken expanse of trees. In all, the Amazon contains some 550,000 sq km of deforested land, one-third of which has been abandoned...
