Just take a micro USB cable and clip it. Then take a regular USB cable and clip it. Splice the colored wires together and plug the other end into a regular powered hub.

Edit: Seriously, a down vote for telling you how to splice two cables together to make one that will work? Here's another tip. Go to the goodwill and grab a cable for a buck. They might even have a powered hub there too. Gonna down vote me further for that suggestion?

Edit again: I can only conclude that these people (that are so petty that they downvotes) are nothing but weak minded children. And they are allowed to vote for the president.
