Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/17/2012 2:55 PM ESTHi all-
I am an occasional lurker, don't really post much, but it seems there is so much good advice here, I thought I'd post my question.
My 14 month old DD (tomorrow!) pretty much refuses to drink cow's milk. She also doesn't like yogurt. And while she used to like cheese when she first started solids, she now refuses cheese as well.
Any tips on getting her to be more open to dairy? I'm worried about her calcium intake. At her 1 year pedi appt, our pedi wasn't worried that she hadn't started drinking milk because she was still nursing then. Now that she isn't, she is only getting calcium from food that she eats.
I know there are calcium-fortified products such as OJ, but I prefer to moderate sweet drinks.
Are all your kids milk guzzlers, or has someone else dealt with this as well?
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/17/2012 3:32 PM ESTWhen DD1 was about that age, I had the similar issue. She would NOT drink milk (or anything for a while) out of a sippy cup and we were ending bottle use. I must have called the doctor's office every other day with questions and concerns for weeks (I also was worried she wasn't getting enough liquid). They told me a. Kids get a lot of liquid in other things they eat like fruits and b. they don't need as much calcium as I felt she did. I want to say it something like 2 servings of cheese a day. Have you tried soy or rice milk? I don't care for it but it does have calcium in it.
And in the end DD1 loves milk. She's not quite a milkaholic but given a choice between milk and juice and water, it's water, milk and then juice.

posted at 1/17/2012 3:35 PM ESTHi there!
My LO is also not big on cow milk (she is 17 months). She will sometimes drink some, but we're talking about a couple of ounces a day at most. Keep offering, is the best thing I can say!
The things that have helped are (a) straw cups, which she loves, plus she takes the liquid faster; (b) at meals we only offer milk and put away the beloved water cup (with an exception for when she had a stomach bug and we wanted her to have plenty of fluids); (c) she'll sometimes drink more if it's with something that milk goes with, like cookies. :)
We also just taught her to "cheers" and at meal time we all clink our milk cups and then we all drink. But that was recent - not sure if she would have been able to grasp that concept at 14 months. Plus now we have to "cheers" multiple times each meal...
I don't have much advice nutritionally, because in our case we have been able to compensate with the yogurt and cheese, which she loves. At our 15 month appointment, our pedi said he was not very concerned for that reason.
However, you might want to google raising vegan kids, and then discuss any info you find with your doctor. It's hard to do but some people do raise vegan kids... so they must have some nutritional tricks up their sleeves!
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/17/2012 6:38 PM ESTMy DD went through a similar phase at 13-15 mnths. She's almost two now and she loves milk so hang in there because this is most likely a phase that your child will outgrow. Similarly, my dd didn't love cheese and I was concerned she wasn't getting enough calcium. My pedi sent me a list of foods that they recommended as alternatives to milk/dairy and there was a good variety on there, including dark leafy vegetables (which can be hidden in foods pretty easily). Your Pedi probably has a similar list or you can probably google it. The other thing to keep in mind is that portion sizes for toddlers are incredibly small, I *think* a dice sized piece of cheese is a portion. So even if your child is seemingly eating very little dairy, it may be enough. Finally, the other thing I'd recommend trying is a Nuk brand cup (the 5 oz size with handles and a soft tip). We use other cups for water and any other beverages she has but she really likes the Nuk ones for milk, maybe because the spout is so soft like a nipple. I know a lot of people like straw cups but I personally find them a huge pain when they are used for milk because they are so hard to clean - we tried them at first but lost several straws in our dishwasher and I never felt as though I could clean them enough by hand. We still use them for water. Good luck and remember this is most likely a phase that will end shortly. We were just persistent and offered milk several times a day for a month or two and one day she began to drink it consistently. I had several "well meaning" relatives advise me to feed her ice cream or pudding or give her flavored milk and I'm glad I didn't go that route because she did eventually take to milk as is and my pedi seemed more concerned about the long term effects of creating a sweet-craving toddler than the fact that she was getting slightly less than the recommended fat/dairy amount for a few months. Good luck - its incredibly frustrating - keep us updated on how it goes!!
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/17/2012 7:37 PM ESTI don't have a kid, but I just wanted to say that soy milk has a nutritionally similar profile to milk. Pretty much all major brands of soy milk that you find at the grocery store are fortified to contain at least as much calcium as dairy milk. They contain about the same amount of protein per serving as well. Rice milk is also typically calcium fortified, but lower in protein.If you want to compare yourself, here is some data:
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/17/2012 8:25 PM ESTMy daughter was the SAME way. She guzzles milk like a champ now (even if your daughter doesn't make the switch to being a dairy fiend, it's ok). She absolutely REFUSED cow's milk at that point. She's eagerly grab a sippy cup of milk when offered, take a sip, and throw it. My theory is she is VERY verbal (had 6 words at 6 months already) and I breastfed her until 15 months--she understood the word "milk" to mean "breastmilk." When she tasted cow's milk she was sorely disappointed/grossed out. I guess if someone offered me milk and I went to drink it and it was soymilk or goat's milk or something that tastes differently than I was expecting I'd have trouble too.
Even after I weaned her she was hesitant about milk for a while. Then, at about 20 months, she just kind of started accepting it when offered. She also seems to like 2% better than whole.
Does your daughter like orange juice? If you're really worried about calcium intake (and they really don't need as much as you think) you can try calcium-fortified orange juice. They also have calcium-fortified apple juice but I wouldn't go that route unless your pedi says you REALLY need to up the calcium intake since I believe the calcium-fortified apple juice has less calcium than milk or orange juice and it has fewer nutrients and more sugar than other juices.
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/17/2012 8:30 PM ESTI second what rama says about not trying flavored milks or pudding for calcium's sake. My MIL was hell-bent on getting mac n cheese and chocolate milk into my daughter because she wouldn't drink milk (keeping in mind she'd eat greek yogurt, cheese, and was still breastfeeding 2x a day at the time, so it's not like she was without calcium!). I'm glad I stuck to my guns and didn't switch to chocolate milk. Daughter definitely came around milk eventually and MIL's sons still only drink chocolate milk, despite being in their 30s and 40s haha.
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/17/2012 8:36 PM ESTthe other thing about greek yogurt is that real greek yogurt has more calcium than the same volume of milk. We sometimes get full fat yogurt and mix it with pureed fruit (either pureed ourselves or the baby food kind). Possible your LO might like that? It usually has a smoother taste than a lot of "regular" yogurt.
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/17/2012 9:20 PM ESTThank you everyone! I feel a little better knowing that this is hopefully a phase.
medford-My DD does like the straw style cups and drinks well from a regular cup as well, she can drink from a sippy cup too, but like the straws more, but the "cheers" idea is cute! It's the type of thing she'd love.
dz & siena-Have not yet tried soy or rice yet, but will add it to the experimentation list!
Rama-I thought about designating a cup for milk, perhaps a new one so that it's novel, maybe I'll try the Nuk cup.
lissafro-I had OJ down as an option, DD does like juice, I just try to limit her drinking of juice since I know she prefers it over water and I don't want her drinking juice all the time, but I think a little here and there can't hurt. I just picked up some greek yogurt tonight before reading all the great advice and will try it later this week.
I guess I'll just keep offering, even if all I get is a quick sip and then disgust and arms sweeping around to push it vehemently away! :)
Just tonight I let DD walk around with one of her straw drinking cups after dinner (filled with milk) and she was sipping as she went. The sips probably added up to 1 oz, but I'll take it!
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/18/2012 7:43 AM ESTSimilar here too. DS, 15 mths, all of a sudden isn't into cheese. He'd snap it up before. And he is all over the place with his drinking. Sometimes will guzzle milk, other times won't take a sip. He could eat yogurt all day, so that is our consistent dairy/calcium intake for now.
I will say, I probably am bad, bad... but DS at 15 mths is still on a morning bottle of milk and an evening bottle. During the day is all sippee cups (straws and valves) but he will absolutely not drink a sip in the morning or night if from a sippee. I know I will have to wean that soon... our doctor's appt is Friday. But with the bottles I know he's getting at least 8-10oz of milk a day... and I'm fearful that will go to 2oz if we just use sippees.
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/18/2012 8:59 AM ESTIPW- me too. don't worry. we can be in the doghouse together.
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/18/2012 9:03 AM ESTIPW, I'm right there with you with the morning and evening bottle, for the same reason...it means I know she's getting enough! Plus, her morning bottle has always been special daddy time, and evening is mine, and I selfishly hate to give that up. I'm planning to dump the morning bottle first, and just have her sit down to breakfast with her dad instead.
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/18/2012 9:07 AM ESTUnsweetened soy milk is fortified and not sugary. I was allergic to milk as a child and drank soy milk exclusively as a substitute. Maybe he'd like that better for now? It could be a texture thing, and soy definitely feels different than cow's milk. Silk makes Vanilla which is sugary, but Plain is really good and not sweetened.
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/18/2012 9:43 AM ESTAdd me to the crowd. I haven't even made a half hearted attempt to ditch the bottles for the twins. They even still get one in the middle of the day before their nap sometimes. I need to get on the ball about that but I can only take one life changing event at a time. Today is DD1's last day in diapers. Tomorrow she's going into underwear. I hope it will go smoothly and quickly.
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/18/2012 9:59 AM ESTIPW - my DD is only 11 mo (in 2 days) and I am already dreading getting her off of her bottles for the same reason. AM bottle is mommy cuddle time and PM is dad's. Ugh. I am getting teary just thinking about it!
echeri - I have no further advice as I am not at that stage yet, but all the PP's have had good advice as far as getting in calcium. FWIW, I love soy milk. Good luck!!
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/18/2012 12:38 PM ESTMy daughter doesn't like yogurt but she loves Petit Montebourg, a french cheese and fruit thing. They carry it at Whole Foods.
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/18/2012 7:40 PM ESTCount me as another in the 15 month bottle camp! DD was on morning and evening bottles until this week when I dropped the morning. Just tonight I discussed with DH and decided that since we were going for it, we might as well go cold turkey and drop the evening one too. I totally cried tonight thinking that she won't have any more bottles! Just like you all, it's our cozy cuddle time getting home at night from work and I'm sad to give it up. But tonight we still cuddled before bed just the same, so like everything else it will become a new normal.
She is not doing great with milk out of sippys and straws during the day - at all! Probably only about 7 oz, whereas she was upwards of 20 oz/day with bottles. At her 12 month appt, the pedi said to shoot for 12 oz at minimum. She's the one who also wanted her off bottles by 15 months so we'll see what she says at her 15 month appt!
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/19/2012 9:05 AM ESTI'm sure babies who nurse have a harder time with cows milk than formula babies. I thought the formula tasted awful - although they happily drank it.
Mommy's milk is very sweet - much sweeter than cows milk - so the transition may take a while. Everyone else has given you lots of great suggestions.
I will add that my kids love smoothies - and I used to cut them - 1/2 milk and 1/2 smoothie so they weren't as sweet. So lots of milk and the bonus of yogurt too. You might try it once in a while. We usually have them right after nap.
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/19/2012 12:10 PM ESTAlso try warming the milk? DS does not like really cold drinks so he prefers milk either warmed or room temp and will drink more of it like that. Same for water and juice.
DS transitioned easily from bottle to sippy but did go through a period of less fluid intake during the process. And personally, who cares if some of your kids are still on bottles at 15 months. I see it as one of those battles that really is not worth a huge fight or concern. It is not like they are 3 or 4 and on bottles. Enjoy it for now...personally I loved getting off the bottles for cleaning reasons and that was my main motivator as bad as that sounds, it was not due to his age.
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/19/2012 5:38 PM ESTWith my first, I did what Misslily did -- thought it was a slippery slope, because it took years for my daughter to drink "plain" milk. Up until about a year ago, we still had to add a splash of yogurt smoothie (which I thought rather disgusting, actually). She was nine. I put my foot down. Finally, she drinks it plain (which is nice for both our budget and her type 1 diabetes regimen!)With my others, I just kept giving cow's milk to them and eventually they drank it. I wasn't as worried by then about the calcium issue, knowing they were getting it from other sources.
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/25/2012 1:03 PM ESTok, thank you all for this post because I was going to ask questions about the same thing. We are trying to cut out the bottle. My daughter loves, loves, loves her sippy cups and has been great at taking water in them over the last few months (she is almost 13 months). We cut out bottles during the daytime which has been ok because she is a foodmonger and great about signing when she wants to eat (constantly!). She got sick when I tried cutting the night bottle and I was worried about fluids and her little baby brain growth, so I kept the night bottle, but now I want to cut it, but...I can't get her to drink milk from her cup. She will actually hold up the cup to see what is inside and will sign me over to the fridge for her water. For my oldest we just did the cups and it took a couple of days and then she was good drinking cold milk from cups, and now she is a bit of a milk hound. Are we okay if #2 just pecks at milk? Daycare says she is doing ok, but the big issue there is cups are only given at meals because one kid (same age) is very milk allergic, so it's the best way to make sure they aren't mixing cups, but I can't get her to drink it at home. So she loves yogurt and cheese, so maybe I'm ok on the fat intake that she needs? That's my biggest concern I think.
Re: Toddler won't drink milk
posted at 1/25/2012 1:52 PM ESTHotcinnababy - I'm sure she'll get over the "no milk in a sippy" thing. I pushed the issue by only offering milk for a few days. No water or juice. Once they realized they weren't getting anything else to drink, they started drinking milk from the cups.
I also mixed 1/2 milk and 1/2 yogurt smoothie - it's sweeter and they like it - it made the transition a little easier too.
But yes - keep feeding the yogurt and the cheese for calcium and fat.
Good luck!

great product, great price
I use these goggles every day (3-4k yds/day). They're comfortable, fit well, and don't leak. The anti-fog coating lasts quite long (several weeks), and the blue color helps w/ visibility for indoor pools. They're comparable to Speedo Vanquisher -- just more reasonably priced.

Pretty Nice and great price
These are the only goggles I've worn that absolutely DO NOT leak. My only "complaints" about them are that I wish the sides were clear so I'd have some peripheral vision when I do the backstroke and sometimes the eye cup pressure is uncomfortable. But it's better than having chlorine in my eyes.
Pacific NW
So far so good
Have only used these once so far, so can't know how I'll feel in a couple of months. PRO's: comfortable, don't leak, love that they're silicone as I'm allergic to latex. CON's: impossible to remove nose piece if you need to adjust, although SwimOutlet seems aware of this problem and graciously offered to replace if goggles broken in removal (takes a pair of pliers I'm told, but I weenied out); not the easiest to adjust the head strap; and forget having any peripheral vision which isn't a problem unless you like to swim backstroke and be able to see when you're approaching the edge
I swim an hour a day. At first they were a little uncomfortable. After three months I love them. Have not fogged, but I have learned to never touch the inside of the lenses, never. The anti-fog treatment will last much longer.Lots of bang for the buck.

Great low cost competition goggle
My son loves this goggle. He pairs it with a bungie strap and has never had a problem.

Worked GREAT and along with the Quick Spit, I couldn't be happier. The fit was nice and comfortable. I would recommend this product, will buy another one when this one gets old.

Awesome goggles for a fraction of the price!!!
My daughter has always insisted on speedo vanquishers. I was placing an order for some replacement goggles and caps, thought I would order a pair of these for her just to see how they compare. They are awesome! My daughter transitioned to them with no problems or questions! She has worn them every day for practices and actually chose them for her meet last weekend over her vanquishers! So happy to have found a low cost goggle. Can't wait to stock up on a bunch!!! Thanks Swim Outlet!

Great goggles and excellent price! I schedule 3 one hour swim sessions per week with a very tough and demanding personal trainer. These goggles are perfect for whatever exercise task I am asked to perform. This is the second pair that I have purchased and will order more when needed. Just don't touch the inside of the lens because that will certainly destroy the antifog properties. Great product, which will last a long time if you take care of them.

great fit
great seal against face. very clear lenses. strap is grippy and interchangeable nosepieces allow better fit. great for the money.
Sandy C.
Great in-house brand
I'm using these goggles as training goggles, right now. They're comparable to the Speedo Vanquisher, and are every bit as good. In fact, the anti-fog feature is better than the last couple pairs of Speedos I've had. These goggles are a great value.
Kansas, USA
Great goggles
Used for swim lessons twice a week, great value, have purchases several S gifts
got pink w/green straps
lens have head-scratching scratches after 2 mnths, permanent film won't leave lenses, leaky, foggy. good price. not for me, but could just be me bc i've gone through 7 pairs of goggles and have still not found THE ONE!!!
New York, NY
Cheap goggle that does not leave marks.
I have struggled to find a goggle that did not leave marks until noon. (I swim at 5:30 am). I have deep set eyes and a somewhat small face. These work for me. I''ve tried speedo socket something or others, vanquishers, air seals, and these are the best. Master swimmer swimming about 12,000 m per week.
Crozet, VA
Sporti Antifog Goggles
My swimmers won't wear anything else. Cuts glare and once adjusted to fit, stays. Good for both indoor and outdoor swims. Have even used them during open water swim in the Atlantic Ocean. Always have these on hand!

Willow Grove, PA
Hard to adjust,good for practices but not for competition
Hard to adjust
A Decent Option
I would give a 3.5 star rating for what it's worth. The reason I couldn't go higher is due to the fit of the eye piece, specifically the thickness of the seal. It's too thin. I changed the nose piece to a wider fit, which helped. Ultimately, even a smaller amount of discomfort is still discomfort.
Goggle eyed
One of the best swim goggles ever used. I have tried MANY. Fits well. Does not leave huge goggle marks. Does not fog up and does not leak. Worth buying ---you won't be disappointed. Swim on.

Perfect HDR
Thats not made by you...
That's sick!
Wow...that's really amazing
Ckckck.. great man!!
Perfect HDR TRUE!
Wow! I just started to experiment with HDR. I have to take all exposures individually because I don't have AEB. This one looks like all exposure pictures has been taken at the exact same time. You must have a very expensive camera
I love HDR photos, this is the best
I don't think this is HDR. It's tone mapped.
Your HDR is one of best rally photos i've seen and I would like to set it as my wallpaper. Is it posible to get it in HD resolution? Is it sharp enough?

Beautiful HDR! I really enjoyed reading many of the comments, I guess a lot of people don't know about Single RAW format HDR LOL
Probably one of the cooler HDR photos I've seen
Very nice, could I have it in high res please? Also an explanation as to whether it was a single raw or multiple photos from different cameras etc
totally blow my mind !!~
I love this pic from a single RAW right?
Totally agreee!!!! Awesome!
love it
wooooow, what i can say, it's super HDR..
How to??
Where is the driver....Seems like 3D creation...not HDR
One of the best I've ever seen...I still don't understand how you captured it though. Was it multiple camera's?
What a great piece
this is beautiful, but how did you get a HDR effect from a mooving image?
Good Job!!! Fantastic photo!!!
Amazing HDR! absolutely love it!

It's almost as if Rajon Rondo wanted to make one final grand gesture to Danny Ainge that he'd be making a big mistake by trading him.
Rondo went out Sunday and posted the most impressive triple double in the NBA since Wilt Chamberlain in 1968, scoring 18 points, dishing out 20 assists and hauling down 17 rebounds in Boston's 115-111 overtime win over the Knicks at TD Garden.
Chamberlain was the last player in the NBA to match all of those numbers when he had 22 points, 25 rebounds and 21 assists in a 131-121 Philly win over the Pistons on Feb. 2, 1968. Why is that comparison so significant?
Many NBA historians recall that as the best statistical game in league history, the only double triple-double ever recorded. Rondo was just two points and three rebounds shy of joining Chamberlain as the second ever with 20 in three different categories.
All the while the numbers were piling up, Rondo said he had no idea.
'No, I didn't, honestly," Rondo said. "Just tried to make some great play calling and just worked out that my numbers showed up like they did.'
One thing Rondo has been more than aware of lately are the trade rumors involving his name that don't show any indication of quieting. If anything, Sunday's game might just perk up the eyes and ears of a GM or two.
"[Rondo] was more than above average," Kevin Garnett said afterward. "Trade talks are a really, really big motivator for him."
Another hall of fame name was thrown around after the game Rondo had. Magic Johnson was the last NBA player with at least 17 points, 17 rebounds and 17 assists in a game before Sunday. Johnson had 24 points, 17 rebounds and 17 assists on April 18, 1989.
'I'm just playing," Rondo said. "The biggest thing is we got the win. You know, [Paul Pierce] made that shot to send us into overtime, and that was big for us. You know, if you get those type of numbers and you lose, it's kind of irrelevant.'
Of all the great numbers he had, the 47 minutes and 47 seconds of playing time might have been the most impressive of all.
'I'm tired now. I wasn't tired during the game. I had no time and no room to get tired.' Read the rest of this entry »
|Paul Pierce consoles Rajon Rondo: 'I was part of trade rumors… four or five straight years'
|03.03.12 at 9:35 am ET
Paul Pierce didn't want his teammate Rajon Rondo feeling singled out or disconnected from the team.
As captain, Pierce felt the time was right before Friday night's game against the Nets to deliver a message about the persistent trade rumors involving Boston's mercurial point guard.
'Well it's nothing we haven't been through before," Pierce said after dropping 27 on the Nets in Boston's 107-94 win that once again put the Celtics above .500 at 18-17. "Rondo's been through it, I've been though it a number of times. The thing is you have to do your job, you can't let that affect you. I kind of mentioned it to Rondo today, you know I was part of trade rumors for probably four or five straight years. I just didn't let it affect me on how I approached each and every game. You know whatever happens, happens, it's business. Sometimes you don't have control of it.'
Rondo ignored the noise and went out in the first half and showed that as long as he's in Boston, he will be the game-changer that Celtics fans have grown accustomed to. Like in the second quarter, when Rondo told everyone to get up-tempo on D and pressure the ball coming up the court.
The result: Five turnovers in a 14-0 Celtics run that – for all intents and purposes – put the game out of reach. Rondo finished with 14 points, 13 assists and five steals, with all five coming in the first half fury.
"He said before the game, 'Let's be aggressive. Defensively, let's be active.' And we followed his lead," Kevin Garnett said of Rondo.
Rondo had help as Mickael Pietrus was a defensive force, implementing Rondo's plan to perfection and getting nasty on whoever was trying to take the ball up the court.
'Well you know Pietrus has started some games for us before and he's been spectacular," Pierce said. "He is able to come off the bench or start and give us great minutes for his defensive and shooting ability.
'I think it definitely goes to another level, because he's our energy guy that we use off the bench . You know when he's out there to start the game he gets us off to a great start, he's such a great rebounder for his size, and he can spread the floor with his point shooting. It was a real big lift to have him out there. We knew we were missing Ray tonight but we knew Pietrus could fill in.'
Now, the Celtics and their newfound pressure D will be tested by Jeremy Lin and the Knicks on Sunday, with Boston riding a three-game win streak.
'I think we are moving the ball a lot better and hopefully hitting our stride right here at home," Pierce said. "We are playing better basketball. We have a huge West coast trip coming up for us in the next couple weeks, so it's important for us to get as many wins as we can under our belt before we hit the road.'
|Chris Wilcox and JaJuan Johnson may not be Kareem Abdul-Jabar but they were pretty good Sunday
|02.12.12 at 9:29 pm ET
The Celtics were without Jermaine O'Neal and Brandon Bass Sunday. They were going up against a front-court of Joakim Noah, Luol Deng and Carlos Boozer that destroyed them on Jan. 13 in Boston in Chicago's win over the Celtics.
You figured the Celtics were in for a long afternoon-into-night. You figured wrong.
Chris Wilcox got the start and scored 11 points and grabbed nine rebounds in 26 minutes while rookie JaJuan Johnson had 12 points in 33 remarkable minutes off the bench as the Celtics stunned the Bulls, 95-91. The Bulls only outscored the Celtics, 40-38, in the paint. Wilcox ran the floor, finishing four Rajon Rondo fast breaks with dunks, while Johnson had the biggest game of his rookie year out of Purdue. Those were two big reasons why.
"I think anybody can run. I mean, [Kareem Abdul-Jabbar] was running at 37, 38, and 40," Doc Rivers joked. "So it's not that ' whatever your speed is, you've just got to do it every time. And I think it's the consistency of doing it every single time. Chris was phenomenal, though, with his speed, and so was JaJuan. I mean, both of them. The one things we did know when those two were in ' you know, our post defense was what it was, and I thought JuJuan overall, except for the very beginning when he first got in, they he kind of ' then he kind of caught on, and got into it. After that, I thought his speed and Chris' athleticism, both of them, had a major impact.'
As for Johnson, Rivers wants to see more.
'Yeah, but he's got to keep doing it. You know, one game doesn't make a star. One season doesn't make a star. So you've just got to keep doing it, and he's got to do it consistently. He will, like I keep saying, he's a great kid and he wants to do it. He's young and he's still learning focus and all that. But he's a good player.
"And be able to catch. I mean, they both have pretty good hands, okay hands, but, yeah it helps. It really helps. And you know what people miss is I thought Paul and Ray ran ' and because they run, and we showed them on the film, we showed old games today on the film ' that when the two guards run, Ray and Paul, and it puts them in the dilemma: do they stay out, wide, in the break and take away their threes? If they do that, if one of our bigs run, then we're going to get it. I don't believe two bigs on the other team is going to run every single time, is the point I keep making. Someone eventually is going to say, 'I'm not running back.' One of those bigs. And we're going to get a lay-up.' Read the rest of this entry »
|Kevin Garnett on Rajon Rondo: 'He had a bit of rough day' (before his triple-double)
|02.12.12 at 8:43 pm ET
The crowd inside the Celtics locker room waited and waited and then waited some more. But Rajon Rondo never came out and talked about his second triple-double of the season Sunday.
And the Celtics needed every bit of his 32 points, 15 assists and 10 rebounds to hold on for dear life in a 95-91 win over the Bulls, providing Boston with arguably its biggest win of the season.
After approximately an hour wait in the dressing room, Kevin Garnett finally came out and gave a clue as to why Rondo was radio silent.
"He had a bit of a rough day but he played through it," Garnett said. "He was professional. I thought he… played with that edge."
Asked to clarify what the rough day meant afterward, Garnett would only smile and joke, spinning the following answer: "I'd love to have that kind of rough day."
Garnett also spoke at length about a tough film session coach Doc Rivers gave to the team before the game, less than 48 hours after Rondo put up a very mediocre performance in an 86-74 loss in Toronto Friday night.
Rondo was 2-of-10 from the field, finishing with five points, seven assists and five rebounds and five turnovers in 41 minutes.
Sunday, he posted his ninth career triple-double. Quite the turnaround.
Was Rondo extra motivated?
'Oh, I don't know. I'm going to let you guys be that deep," Rivers said. "I wish I could get in someone's head that deep. I just think he wanted to win. And I thought we played at a better pace today. You could see it: we were trying to run today. And that's how we have to play. [If] we didn't turn the ball over we would've had far more points. But I just liked our pace and that's all we talked about after the game in Toronto and today in our morning walk-through ' was enough of the walking. And it was not Rondo, it's the team. The bigs have to run the floor. [Paul Pierce] and [Ray Allen] have to run the floor."
Then came another clue as to what might have transpired to contribute to Rondo's "rough day."
"It does a lot of things," Rivers said of Rondo running the fast break. "We get early posts from our bigs, we get jump shots from the break, and we get Rondo in the open court. And when you walk, it's easy to guard.'
Hmmm. The Celtics finished the game with a 33-7 advantage in fast break points, converting all 13 chances.
|Doc Rivers is prepared for all the 'Jurassic Park' jokes
|02.10.12 at 8:29 am ET
Usually, even after a gut-punching loss like Thursday night to the Lakers, Doc Rivers can put a positive spin on things.
Such was definitely not the case after his team looked old and slow to loose balls and rebounds in an 88-87 overtime loss at the Garden.
Part of the problem was in the stat sheet where both teams shot 39 percent in a game that had just 11 combined points in the five-minute overtime.
"Listen, both teams shot 39 percent," Rivers said. "Someone had to win. That's how it looked. Game looked in slow motion at times. So, I'm sure all the jokes [are out there about] two old teams and Jurassic Park."
Another issue was the Celtics' inability to deal with the Lakers' size in the front court, as the visitors outrebounded the Green, 55-45.
One bright spot, however, was the defense of Mickael Pietrus on Kobe Bryant for most of the night. Bryant finished with a game-high 27 points but was 11-of-24 from the field and didn't get a shot off until 2:54 left in the first quarter.
"They're tough," Rivers said. "They're really long. They're good. I thought we did a pretty good job on Kobe, overall. We mixed up our coverages. I thought every time we did trap, they got an offensive rebound because we're scrambling as far as our rotations. I thought Pietrus did a phenomenal job on him."
But oh, those rebounds, loose balls and intangibles when you play a team like the Lakers, even if they're getting old, too. The Celtics were beaten in the paint, 46-38, and on second-chance points, 24-13.
'We talked about it before the game: longer teams, you've got to go hit them," Rivers said. "You've got to put a body on them. If you think you can just turn and rebound when a guy's five inches taller than you, it's not going to happen. I bet they got four or five rebounds where we were actually in the inside position; they just reached over us. But you know, if you drive them back, they can't get those. Then it's over your back.'
|Rajon Rondo rocks a mean fedora and says 'I'm sure I'll be OK'
|01.18.12 at 11:39 pm ET
If ever a player knew how to play it cool, it is Rajon Rondo.
Every Celtics fan thought the worst Wednesday night and had nightmarish flashbacks to last spring when he bent his left arm in a way it's not supposed to bend in Game 3 against the Heat.
So when he took a nasty spill Wednesday night, breaking his fall with his right hand and wrist, there was legitimate reason to be worried.
With just over two minutes remaining in the third quarter Wednesday night, Rondo drove to the basket and was knocked to the ground by Linas Kleiza of the Raptors. Rondo said he is "day-to-day" with a sore right wrist, an injury he said afterward "hurt more" than the grotesque dislocated elbow he suffered against the Heat in the second round of the playoffs last spring.
"This was different," Rondo said, sporting a cool black fedora. "This was more painful, honestly. The other one was just more of a shock."
'Honestly, I was laughing right afterwards," added coach Doc Rivers. "I wasn't [concerned] at first because I thought he was trying to get the flagrant. I thought he was laying down, trying to ' you know. And then when he stayed down then I was concerned. But I didn't know what it was. And then when I saw him grabbing his arm or hand I was thinking 'last year, playoffs' obviously.'
|Doc Rivers: Mickael Pietrus is 'the instigator' Celtics desperately need right now
|01.17.12 at 10:28 am ET
After Monday night's 97-88 loss to the Thunder, Doc Rivers spoke as if he were jealous of Mickael Pietrus.
"He has a great role — shoot," Rivers said. "That's a helluva role. I never had that as a player because I couldn't shoot, was probably the reason."
He even lamented his case to his old coach with the Atlanta Hawks, Mike Fratello, who was on hand doing the game nationally on TNT.
But after further thought, Rivers' jealousy turned into sincere admiration for the combination of toughness and determination Pietrus brings to the team, a trait that's needed badly right now as the team battles through a five-game losing streak and a 4-8 start to the shortened 66-game season.
"He earns it, though," Rivers said. "The guy, he plays so hard. He's going to take some crazy shots sometimes and he may turn it over but his spirit is really good for our team. He's competitive and we needed to add another instigator to our team. He is absolutely an instigator." Read the rest of this entry »

Friday, January 2, 2009 (AP) -- Vince Carter hit a long 3-pointer at the buzzer in overtime and the New Jersey Nets rallied from a 20-point halftime deficit to beat Atlanta 93-91 on Friday night, ending the Hawks' six-game winning streak.
Devin Harris added 26 points and 11 assists, and Carter finished with 18 points, with the final three coming from just inside 30 feet after he chased an inbound pass into the backcourt and hurried to get his shot off.
Atlanta's Mike Bibby had 22 points, and Josh Smith added 20, with his layup with 11 seconds left in overtime seemingly destined to be the winning basket.
Carter was fouled by Smith with 5.3 seconds to play and that forced the Nets to inbound from in front of their bench. The inbound pass by Jarvis Hayes went into the backcourt and Carter made the play of the game to get the Nets a rare home win in a contest that saw New Jersey coach Lawrence Frank ejected in a dismal second quarter.

Well... 10.8.1 is ultra stable, not a single glitch! (Since I already had Flash on 10.8.1 before and for long enough, I can say it's not Flash alone that did this...)
Cloning almost done, will update using the combo to 10.8.2 tomorrow (keeping flash away to keep away a possible Flash/OSX combination problem, will try later with it)
I read on some other non-disclosable places (mainly those talking about OSX on non-Apple computers) that the Combo update somehow fixes a few rigs, maybe i wouldn't be able to reproduce the issue... and honestly, I can't spend time on that anyways

I started getting this error when I upgraded from Lion to ML 10.8.2. I've since done a fresh install of Lion where it persisted and am now running a fresh install of Snow Leopard. It does occur in SL as well, but its not as frequent. I'm concerned Mountain Lion may have caused a hardware fault. Otherwise it may be a firmware issue.
I'm running a late 2008 model Macbook Pro with the nVidia 9400m and 9600m GT graphics card.

I did a fresh install of ML and still get the error as well. It is not as frequent after the latest ML patch, but I still get it. Same behavior where the screensaver 3D graphics appears to trigger it. I unlock my screen and can move the mouse but continue to see a frozen image of the screensaver and have no access to any part of the OS. Hard shut down is only option and I lose all data that wasn't saved when it happens.

I had the same issue. It was related to my NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT graphics card.
My fix:
I navigated to /System/Library/Extensions and moved all the files starting with NV and GeF to a backup directory on my desktop, then used Kext Wizard option "System/Library/Extensions" to Repair Permissions and to Rebuild Cache, then rebooted.
The computer restarted with no gray screen and no more NVDA(OpenGL) log entries.
I recommend that you try this.

I've had this issue for years and I barely took the time to look deep into it, and I'm also getting these log entries.
What seems amazing is that it's clearly a GPU issue that Apple just decided to ignore instead of doing a recall like they should have, hoping that we'll shutup and go away.
So right now, if I want this fixed by Apple, I have to pay a LOT of money. And if I want to sell it I practically have to give it away because since these iMacs (late 2006 in my case) have such a bad rep, nobody wants to buy them.
Great going Apple. Thanks a lot.

Ah. OK. I had this problem, which turned out to be a Flash and Firefox issue. I can reproduce it by simply having Firefox open on a site with Flash features.

I have the exaxt same problem with my brand new 27 iMac. It's REALLY annoying. I brought it into the apple store, they tested it for two days but found nothing. At first I thought, it was of a faulty second monitor I attached, but even after removing it, the error reappears..........
Disputator Apr 7, 2013 9:42 AM
in response to Witch
After 2 weeks, this morning it started again. This time my MacBook Pro seemed to recover as it didn't actually freeze after the first Channel exception. I was able to use it for another few minutes, then it froze. After rebooting a couple of times and sometimes the Mac even crashing during the startup I was using the Safe Boot mode for a couple of hours. No problems there, which makes me think it's software related. On the other hand, after leaving the book powered off and letting it cool down for an hour or so I could boot regularly again, which makes me feel it's actually hardware related.
How annoying is that?!

Try install Cuda 5.0.59 drivers and after check console.
LifeReceiver Jun 12, 2013 9:31 AM
in response to James_22
I installed Cuda 5.0.59 and the problem is persisting. I'm afraid Mountain Lion might have caused a hardware fault in my video card. This happens on Mountaion Lion 10.8.4 with everything as up to date as I can make it. It doesn't matter whether I keep it on integrated or discrete, it happens just as regularly. I think our only hope right now is Mavericks, but I'm doubtful.
So far my best solution is to run Snow Leopard. It happens much more intermittently. Rather than mulitple times a day it may happen only once or twice a week.

The U.S. Coast Guard bulletin regarding compliance with the International Maritime Organization's verified gross mass requirement "seems to allow for more flexibility," says Federal Maritime Commission Chairman Mario Cordero.
Three of the four pre-qualified port terminal operators that will bid for control of the Corozal Container Terminal have ties to container shipping giants Maersk Line, Mediterranean Shipping Co. (MSC), and CMA CGM.
The 13,092-TEU containership COSCO Hope crashed into a gantry crane at Port Said as it was departing the Egyptian port, igniting a fire that spread to 20 containers and resulted in injuries to at least two people.
Registration takes less than 1 minute.
The world's second largest ocean carrier will use software provider INTTRA's eVGM solution to provide a portal for submission of verified container weight data ahead of the International Maritime Organization's July 1 deadline.
The OCEMA working group published recommendations for how and when shippers should submit SOLAS container weight verification data ahead of the July 1 implementation deadline.
The proposed alliance would become a dominant player in the three major east-west trades, beating out total capacity currently offered by the 2M Alliance on those trade lanes, according to an analysis from BlueWater Reporting.

For the foreseeable future, Gadsden County residents are being asked to go to other hospitals if they need medical attention.
The Agency for Health Care Administration issued the suspension order Friday evening. At the hospital Friday night patients were leaving and deputies were telling those seeking medical care to go elsewhere.
Health officials say unclean conditions, unpaid bills, and a lack of staff are just some of reasons leading to the suspension of services.
Adam Levine with the Agency for Health Care Administration says, "We feel like the health and safety of the community in Gadsden County is in jeopardy. It's an action we take very seriously. It's not something we do very often, but we do it when we feel there's really no other alternative."
The Agency for Health Care is asking nearby hospitals to take on the fewer than 10 patients already at the facility. It was all hands on deck for Gadsden Memorial staff Friday evening as many came in for an impromptu meeting.
Hospital administrator Alma Jones refused to speak with us about the temporary shutdown. The Agency for Health Care secretary says he has reached out to Gadsden County commissioners. He hopes to have a meeting with them within the next few days.

An unidentified person from Airville, PA was driving on I-75 in Suwannee County on Feb. 13th when they crashed into a tree, according to the Florida Highway Patrol. The person was pronounced dead on the scene.
The driver was traveling north on Interstate-75 in a 1995 Dodge Ram truck in the outside travel lane. The truck exited the roadway and drove onto the northbound grassy shoulder. The truck continued traveling north down the sloped embankment toward the border fence and adjacent tree line on the east side of the roadway. The front of the truck then struck the border fence, continued northbound, and struck a large tree with its right front. The truck then overturned and came to final rest on its left side facing southwest.
The driver of truck was pronounced deceased at the scene of this collision by attending Columbia County EMS personnel.
Identification of the person involved in the accident is pending the notification of the next of kin.

When Six Days in Fallujah was announced a few weeks ago, it received considerable backlash for a variety of reasons. Some of those reasons were valid ("It's too soon for a war game in Iraq," "It could be disrespectful to soldiers"), others were not ("Games are only for escapism"), but what surprised me the most was the amount of backlash from gamers for the regenerating health system.
I admit that regenerating health is out of place in a game that's supposed to be realistic, but also I think the word "realistic" has been unfairly applied to Six Days in Fallujah. The word "realistic" creates (ironically) unrealistic expectations for a mass-market war game. Gamers now expect their avatar to die easily; after all, it often doesn't take more than one bullet to kill someone in real life so it shouldn't take more than one bullet to kill our avatar. However, this kind of one-hit kill system would make the game dangerously difficult, and because of its broad intended audience, Six Days in Fallujah has to be accessible to all gamers. The subject matter itself is guaranteed to limit sales, so why further that with punishing gameplay? Concessions to reality must be made for playability. At least that's the argument the developer made, but I believe the case for regenerating health goes beyond mere accessibility.

Digitizing Dissertations for an Institutional Repository: A Process and Cost Analysis*
Piorun, Mary, Palmer, Lisa A., Journal of the Medical Library Association
Objective: This paper describes the Lamar Soutter Library's process and costs associated with digitizing 300 doctoral dissertations for a newly implemented institutional repository at the University of Massachusetts Medical School.
Methodology: Project tasks included identifying metadata elements, obtaining and tracking permissions, converting the dissertations to an electronic format, and coordinating workflow between library departments. Each dissertation was scanned, reviewed for quality control, enhanced with a table of contents, processed through an optical character recognition function, and added to the institutional repository.
Results: Three hundred and twenty dissertations were digitized and added to the repository for a cost of $23,562, or $0.28 per page. Seventy-four percent of the authors who were contacted (n=282) granted permission to digitize their dissertations. Processing time per title was 170 minutes, for a total processing time of 906 hours. In the first 17 months, full-text dissertations in the collection were downloaded 17,555 times.
Conclusion: Locally digitizing dissertations or other scholarly works for inclusion in institutional repositories can be cost effective, especially if small, defined projects are chosen. A successful project serves as an excellent recruitment strategy for the institutional repository and helps libraries build new relationships. Challenges include workflow, cost, policy development, and copyright permissions.
Digitization projects in libraries seem ubiquitous as libraries become increasingly involved in the acquisition, development, and management of digital information [I]. Libraries typically target archival and special collections materials such as historical documents and photographs [2]. Projects to digitize vast collections of books began as early as 1971 with Project Gutenberg and are now getting widespread media attention with the launch of Google Book Search, the Internet Archive, and others [3]. In an April 2007 list of ten assumptions about the future that would significantly impact academic libraries and librarians, the Association of College & Research Libraries Research Committee placed digitization at the top of the list, stating, "There will be an increased emphasis on digitizing collections, preserving digital archives, and improving methods of data storage and retrieval" [4].
A related emergent trend in academic libraries is the implementation of institutional repositories (IRs), digital collections that capture and preserve the intellectual output of university communities [5]. A search of OpenDOAR, the Directory of Open Access Repositories, lists 298 academic repositories in North America [6]. Health sciences libraries are among those contributing to this trend; of 125 libraries that responded to a 2006 supplementary survey for the Annual Statistics of Medical School Libraries in the United States and Canada, 28 have established IRs and 70 are planning to add or are considering offering a repository [7]. According to Foster and Gibbons, libraries build IRs because they "provide an institution with a mechanism to showcase its scholarly output, centralize and introduce efficiencies to the stewardship of digital documents of value, and respond proactively to the escalating crisis in scholarly communication" [8].
Medical librarians are just beginning to report their experiences with institutional repositories in the professional literature [9-13]. In one case study, Krevit and Crays [13] describe challenges that the Texas Medical Center experienced in piloting a multiinstitutional repository, including copyright concerns and lack of faculty participation. An analysis by Singarella and Schoening [14] of the surveys conducted between 2005 and 2007 by the Association of Academic Health Sciences Libraries and a survey conducted in 2006 by the Association of Research Libraries [15] confirmed that the challenges experienced at the Texas Medical Center were not unique. …

Cleaning and prepping furnace for winter
Well it is that time of year again time to clean and prep the furnace for the winter season. Are there any tips for checking certain items when cleaning the furnace? Also, I want to change the oil filter myself this year. Where would I find out what size/type inline oil filter that I have for my furnace? And what is a good online source for purchasing these oil filters?

It's another scorcher in the Finger Lakes today…and we're all looking to beat the heat!
Here are some of the more unusual tricks you can use to keep yourself cool from the Daily Mail:
Lick your wrists. Monkeys lick their wrists when they're hot. It works for humans too. Of course, you COULD just run them under cold water for 10 seconds but isn't licking them more fun?
Get the hot salsa. Spicy foods actually cool you down.
Keep your lotion in the fridge. That way, when you put it on, it will keep you cold for a while.
Turn off the TV. Modern TVs generate a TON of heat. So when you're not watching, turn it off.
Put your mattress on the floor. Since heat rises, the closer you get to the floor, the better it will feel. You should also put your fans on the floor and angle them upward.
Eat frozen yogurt instead of ice cream. Yogurt has a higher water content than ice cream, so it's better for keeping your body temperature down.
Do your best to make sure you (and your pets) stay cool this week!

A reader who calls himself a current member of the band Furious Styles responds to Local Hardcore Band 'Furious Styles' Uses Cop-Killing to Sell T-Shirts. He says the murder of an innocent police officer isn't going to change his group's views on law enforcement.
"The past day has been a shit-storm for a shirt that wasn't even supposed to reach mainstream society. This shirt wasn't a silly publicity stunt and frankly we're supprised at the ammount of attention it's recieved. We've never wanted or expected mainstream success or attention. This shirt was meant to sell to a select few fans, not to be peddled off onto Seattle's teenagers at Hot-Topic.
Anyone who knows Furious Styles knows our stance on police and just because an officer is actually killed doesn't mean we're going to change our tune, so to speak. It wasn't a joke then and it's not a joke now.Because of the press coverage, which was completely unexpected and misinformed, we've had alot of "friends" turn their backs on us. But at the same time, the true friends and fans we have have shown us alot of support. I'm still a member of FS, I still live in Seattle and I still support the shirt as well as all the bands statements.
To be honest I was more impressed by Christopher Monfort's actions when he destroyed those police cruisers a few days before the shooting than the shooting it's self."

Currency skirmishes and warsAdvantageVoice® Blog—
Brian Jacobsen, Ph.D., CFA, CFP®, Chief Portfolio Strategist
Ever since the Federal Reserve embarked on its various unconventional monetary policies in 2008, central bankers and politicians around the world have been using the phrase, "currency war." While no one accepted definition exists of what constitutes a currency war, the general idea is that it happens when governments—either through their Treasury departments or through their central banks—intentionally try to weaken the value of their currencies relative to their trading partners. This type of policy could also be called a "competitive devaluation," or as a "beggar thy neighbor policy" because a cheaper currency also tends to make exports less expensive and imports more expensive. The resulting devaluation is likely to prop up one economy at the expense of another, without actually creating a net increase in economic activity. The policy simply shifts economic activity instead of increasing it. The difference between a competitive devaluation and a currency war is more one of degree than of kind.
Are we engaged in a currency war?
I don't think there has been an outright currency war for the last few years, but I do believe that one is developing. The Federal Reserve has not been deliberately targeting the dollar's exchange rate as part of its monetary policy. A weaker dollar may have been a side-effect of some of the Fed's policies, but it was not the target of Fed policy. In a currency war, intent matters. Also, it's hard to argue that the Fed is continuing to engage in a currency war, given that the dollar has strengthened in value relative to a broad measure of exchange rates since the middle of 2011.
Other countries, however, have been deliberately trying to devalue their currencies. Brazilian bankers regularly complain about the strength of the Brazilian real. The Liberal Democratic Party in Japan rode to victory in December promising to devalue to the yen. The Reserve Bank of India said that its monetary policy would depend not just on domestic conditions, but also on the country's current account surplus (exports minus imports). And just recently, French President Francois Hollande has been calling for action for the euro to weaken to help eurozone exporters.
Policymakers cannot know the current state of a large economy better than the market
What I find most interesting—and disturbing—about President Hollande's recent comments is that he said that the euro should not fluctuate according to the mood of the markets. Should it be set then according to the whims of politicians? President Hollande is exemplifying what economist and author Friedrich Hayek referred to as the "fatal conceit": policymakers aren't omniscient and cannot know the current state of a large economy better than market participants. The diverse interaction of many thousands of individuals in a market probably do a better job of setting prices than a few dozen policymakers do of fixing prices. This doesn't mean markets always get things right. In fact, especially in the market for exchange rates, markets are prone to "overshooting" where the price tends to swing too high or too low, based on the fundamentals, but policymakers might not be able to do much better.
An exchange rate is a relative price, meaning that one currency is priced in terms of another currency. So if everyone is trying to lower the value of their currencies, it's a pursuit that's destined to end badly. If everyone tries to devalue their currencies, you just end up with a lot of inflation and nobody wins. The currency war of 1930 to 1931 is the most visible example of how this can end badly, as it turned an economic downturn into a prolonged global depression.
The brewing currency war doesn't have to become mutually assured destruction
Today is different than the 1930s, which were so bad not just because of devaluing currencies but the imposition of trade and capital controls. As a result, global trade collapsed. Provided that countries don't resort to protectionist policies today—closing borders to the flow of goods, services, and financial capital—the brewing currency war doesn't have to become mutually assured destruction. Countries that impose trade restrictions or capital controls are the ones I'd be second guessing. Brazil has toyed with various controls. Korea has as well. Argentina is perhaps the worst offender. China is beginning to relax its controls, so at least it is headed in the right direction.
In the early 1980s, the U.S. dollar was strengthening considerably relative to the Japanese, West German, French, and U.K. currencies. U.S. exporters began to complain about the strength of the dollar because a stronger dollar was either making their products more expensive in foreign markets or cutting into their profit margins.
Instead of adapting to the stronger dollar, companies did the easier thing: they began lobbying congress and the president to impose trade sanctions on foreign competitors. Of course, what is rarely appreciated is that by imposing trade sanctions on your competitors, , you are inviting retaliatory sanctions from them. That, then, results in a trade war. Those only end badly.
If history is a guide, the currency skirmishes will not likely result in a trade war
To forestall a trade war, policymakers from the U.S., West Germany, France, Japan, and the U.K. got together at the Plaza Hotel in New York and agreed to devalue the dollar. This agreement was called the Plaza Accord.
In 1987, those policymakers—in addition to Canada—got together again at the Louvre in Paris. The dollar had weakened too much, and now exporters from the non-U.S. countries were complaining. The resulting Louvre Accord was an agreement to strengthen the dollar—or at least to try to stop it from weakening.
What's the lesson? We may get a Brussels Accord, of some sort, to devalue the euro and yen relative to the dollar. If history is a guide, the currency skirmishes will not likely result in a trade war, at least amongst the major developed economies.

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS, Colo. ( TheStreet) -- When the snow's piling up and your fellow commuters are skidding over four lanes, what you're driving isn't nearly as important as what you're driving on.With the Midwest still reeling from feet of snow that collapsed the roof of The Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome in Minneapolis -- forcing the NFL's Minnesota Vikings and New York Giants to not only postpone their game but move it to Ford (F - Get Report) Field in Detroit -- American drivers are dealing with wintry conditions well before the first day of the season. The problem for most sliding, snowbound drivers, however, isn't that they didn't trade in their Honda (HMC - Get Report) Accord for a used Hummer before the first flakes fell, but that they're riding through blizzards on the same rubber that took them to the beach.

Amazing work!
i really like the composition, i also like how subtle the magpie is
Excellent job!
Its just beautiful! Excellent job!
awesomely done
Nice view for Snowwhite. I like it
The colour scheme on this and the whole image is just wow. I love it! Maybe try have the raven/crow pecking at the ice?
Amazing artwork
Impressive! Your image makes me rally thoughtfull. Fantastic mood, good work!
*throws a snowball*
Nice effect.
very useful how you provide us with the images you used.
I like how you managed to put it all together to look like that. Snow White has always been one of my favorite fairy tales
Very nice
I've seen some amazing stock-image manipulation, but how do you know what images to look for? Do you see something in one that just inspires you?
i really like the way you did this, it looks very well thought through! Well done!
Se ve genial, buena integración de recursos y todo lo demás, pero no me está cuadrando mucho la manera en que se encuentra dentro del ataud de cristal. Siento que esa parte se ve en especial "descuadrada" o "irreal"
I looked at the work first and only after that at the title and Snow White came to mind immediately xD With Sleeping Beauty as a close second, I admit, but what I want to say is that it's very regocnizable. Very well done, and please do keep up the good work!
Wow, fantastic job on your version of the myth. kekeke
Really good

I'm a 17 year old male currently involved in a relationship of four months. I'm a virgin, and I am also "questioning" about my sexuality, but my girlfriend is unaware. There was a time when I would consider myself bisexual, because I am attracted, physically, to males but not emotionally, but I'm still not entirely sure that I am bisexual. My girlfriend is much more experienced than I am when it comes to sex, but she has never gone "all the way" and she wants to do this for the first time with me. I want to really bad as well, and we plan to soon, but I can't shake the feeling that I will be doing something wrong if I have sex with her and I'm still not fully comfortable or aware of my sexual orientation, or that I want to be in this relationship forever. I would however like to lose my virginity for the first time with her. Would it be wrong if I am still considering myself questioning and we still went all the way?
I am from a country where dating is taboo. I was not in a relationship till my early twenties. The following may be hard to understand but I need to talk about it and know why I let this happen to me. It was my first relationship and I had little idea what to expect. Things were fine till my bf learned another man was interested in me and I might be interested in him too. That was the first time he told me he loved me and wanted to marry me. A torrent of emotional abuse followed. He started to tell me things like I was fat (I was not...I was 5'3 and 113 pounds) and not as pretty as his exes. He tried to tell me what to do with my life and how I was not that intelligent. I tried to break up but he wouldn't let me.
I'm 13 and I really need some help. I have been talking to this guy for ages on my phone and texting him. We have Skyped, and I know he might be 'one of those older people who have random children acting for them and they have voice filters' etc, but he has Facebook and I know loads of people who know him, but I just haven't met him. He is really nice and we both wanna meet each other... We decided we were gonna meet and I'm really excited. He says he wants to finger me, and he want me to give him head, that's fine because I have done it before so all's cool. Then when he asked if I wanted to have sex with him, I got creeped. Just need someone to say if I'm doing the right thing or not.
Okay so I'm pretty sure I'm lesbian and the reason for this is that when I read something naughty straight stuff makes me sick. When I read lesbian erotica I like it... until they start penetrating each other, but everything else excites me and I know I want to have sex. If you are having sex with a girl does there have to be penetration? Is it unusual to not want it? I mean just the thought of it makes me sick.
This may get a bit vivid. Be warned. I have a twisted sexual history. After being molested at age 5 and again at 14 I somehow allowed myself to get taken advantage of and used in regards to sex. It took me many years to heal and much pain to get to where I am now and I can have a healthy sexual experience with my current boyfriend. I stayed at his house when he was renting a room out of a bachelors pad and I understood and accepted that Playboy magazines were on every toilet and the toilet seats were always up. One day he came to the kitchen with a boner kissing on me and whatnot, a short while after I went up to the bathroom where he had been showering and found a Playboy open. Are you kidding me? How dare he have the audacity to come to me with a boner he got from a slut in a magazine? It was talked about and made clear I am not comfortable with that whatsoever, he should be loyal to me mind body and soul, and I should be enough for him; as it is likewise.
It's been months since then. I found some porn videos on his phone yesterday and it really repulsed me. I get dressed up for him, I go down on him, I put out frequently. We do get kinky. Now the reason this video offended me so much is I do let him [ejaculate] on my [breasts]: its a thrill for him. In this porn video there's a girl who looks like me, disturbing enough as is, and shes giving a guy a blowjob till he [ejaculates] on her [breasts], then she turns to the next guy and does it again. Screen changes and she's [having intercourse] from behind and he [ejaculates] in her, then she crawls forward and starts giving another guy head as yet another comes up to [have sex with her] from behind as well. TOO FAR. It's not your basic porn scene, and it bothers me that its a twisted repulsive obscene image of something him and I share intimately. We've just moved in together and I can't imagine ever letting him see me naked again. I feel like he twisted our passionate and beautiful sex into some perverted expression of his twisted fantasies.
I've been dating my current boyfriend for 5 months now, and I really am ready and willing to have sex. But, he's not. He wants to, and he's curious but he feels that he shouldn't? I don't know what to do, I don't understand why he's feeling this way about it. Is there something wrong with me? Something he's afraid to say? Or is he just really scared himself? Help!
My 15 year old son has a first girlfriend who is a year older. My concern is that she lives with her dad only and quite often is home alone. My son has been there twice already and one time I made him leave because the dad was not home. I am besides myself about how to handle this. He said that he is not going to have sex with her but you know how that goes. I know what I was doing at 15. Do I make condoms available? But that would be condoning it. I will have a talk with the girl about not hanging at her house. They are always welcome at mine and I will try to speak to her dad about it.
