#Ukraine - Opera Singer Shot Dead in Donbas: Vasyl Slipak quit French opera to fight for Ukraine: UKRAINE TODAY

Published on 29 Jun 2016
Famous Ukrainian opera singer Vasyl Slipak died in the eastern Ukraine. Local media report Slipak was killed on June 29th in a warzone, shot by a sniper using a full-bore rifle near the village of Luhanske at about 6 am.

He returned back in Ukraine two years ago. Having live in France for nearly two decades, Slipak became at first the voice of Ukrainian local Maidan in Paris. 2,500 km from home, he sang the national anthem of Ukraine symbolizing the unbreakable spirit of his compatriots and trying to show his homeland is suffering from invasion.

This is already a charitable concert, Slipak performing in a T-shirt with a trident and a specific Ukrainian patriot's haircut. The money he gets for singing opera artist gives to the children of the killed soldiers and finances the army.

In 2015 Vasyl Slipak told in the interview he has no moral right to remain in France, since Ukraine has to struggle with outer enemies. Before departing to the frontline he was awarded with a medal.

Vasyl Slipak was shot close to the occupied town of Debaltseve, while the Russian-backed separatist forces started advancing using the heavy weapon and mortars. The blood brothers of Vasyl' Slipak say his songs about courageous warriors have become his final prophecy

#Turkey - targeted: Islamic State Group blamed for Istanbul attack: FRANCE 24 English

Published on 29 Jun 2016
Once again, Turkey's a target for blind terror. At least 41 killed at Istanbul's Atatürk Airport in a carefully-staged attack blamed on Isis. If that's confirmed, it's the fourth major bombing attributed to Islamic State militants in the past year. Why Turkey? Why now? The attack may be long-planned but they come the same week the government restored ties with Israel, apologized for downing a Russian fighter jet, and is now reaching out to Egypt and possibly Syria.

Produced by Charles WENTE, François WIBAUX and Van MEGUERDITCHIAN.

WTI Crude Oil and Natural Gas Forecast June 30, 2016: DailyForex

Published on 29 Jun 2016
The WTI Crude Oil markets rallied during the course of the session on Wednesday, testing the $50 level. By doing so, it looks as if the market is going to try to break out to the upside but we didn’t close above it. If we can break out above the most recent high, the market then will continue to go much higher. Ultimately, at this point in time it looks quite a bit like we are consolidating, so I feel that we very well could pull back towards the 50 day exponential moving average, which is shown as red on this chart. The market does look as if there is quite a bit of bullish pressure underneath though, so ultimately we very well could breakout. With this, I think that the short-term pullback could very well end up being more of a buying opportunity than anything else.

Facebook puts friends first in your feed thanks to transparent News Feed Values adoption: Digital Trends

Published on 29 Jun 2016
If you’ve ever wondered how Facebook decides what goes into your feed, well, now you can find out. In a rather surprising move of transparency, Facebook is publishing a paper explaining its News Feed Values. The long and the short of it is that Facebook puts friends and family first, it doesn’t squash diverse ideas, and Spam is on its way out, while user controls that better manage what you see are in.

As of today, that friends-first attitude is being implemented formally with an algorithm change which will put your friends posts up top, well before you might see any sponsored content, or even posts from news outlets and listicles from other social media sites. It’s a big shift for Facebook, which seems to believe that if you like using Facebook more, then you’ll use it more often, and that’s a boon to ad sales, no matter where those ads end up appearing in your feed.
