1日人民币兑美元中间价连续第三日设高，创下自09年7月以来的新高；即期市场早盘，人民币兑美元并未一味跟随中间价而动，反而小幅低开。国际市场上，近期美元放缓上升步伐，兑多数主要货币有所回落，人民币汇率亦趁机走强。而有关中国商务部正调研人民币升值可能对密集型行业影响进行压力测试的消息似乎暗示，人民币升值或在酝酿之中。不过从现货市场表现来看，多数投资者仍在观望之中。
中国人民银行授权中国外汇交易中心公布，2009年3月1日银行间外汇市场美元等交易货币兑人民币汇率的中间价为：1美元兑人民币6.8267元，1欧元兑人民币9.3140元，100日圆兑人民币7.6713元，1港元兑人民币0.87949元，1英镑兑人民币10.3739元。
中国物流与采购联合会3月1日消息，2010年2月，中国物流与采购联合会(CFLP)中国制造业采购经理指数(PMI)为52.0%，比1月回落3.8个百分点。尽管受春节因素影响，该指数明显低于上个月，但2月份中国制造业仍连续第十二个月实现扩张。
美国财政部2月26日公布的修正数据报告显示，尽管2009年12月减持了多达342亿美元规模的美国国债，但截至当月，中国持有美国国债总规模仍高达8,948亿美元，高于此前公布的7,554亿美元，继续占据美国国债的最大单一持有国地位。
与此同时，中国持有美国国债规模的持续下滑趋势依旧明显：根据修正后的数据，中国持有美国国债的规模在2009年6月达到峰值，为9,150亿美元。此外，去年12月，中国持有短期美国国债724.12亿美元，净减持规模高达388亿美元，该类资产在中国所持美国国债中所占比例降至约9.6%。
商务部新闻发言人姚坚日前表示，无论是国际的知名的经济学家还是国内的经济学家都有一个基本的判断，就是人民币汇率问题不是中国有顺差、美国有逆差的根本原因，更不是导致国际经济失衡的根本原因。如果是以美国经济出现问题为借口，如果是在国际经济中出现了一些问题就找借口把经济失衡的问题归咎于人民币汇率，明显是找错了药方，失去了基本的判断。
国际方面，美国商务部26日公布，09年第四季度美国GDP折合成年率增长5.9%，为2003年第三季度以来的最快增速；增幅与预期一致。主要是因为企业放缓了库存清理步伐并加大了支出。1月公布的09年第四季度GDP初步数据为增长5.7%。09年第三季度GDP增长2.2%。虽然数据证实，在第二季度结束长达一年的衰退后，经济反弹步伐有所加快，但在消费者支出增幅能弥补刺激资金减少所带来的影响前，经济复苏恐难以为继。

Update : Santiago Chile Earthquake casualties
After the massive earthquake measuring in magnitude of 8.8 Ritcher scale happened at Chile, the death toll have reached more than 700 dead , and over 2 million of civilians were displaced.
Chile President Michelle Bachelet said the governments has doubling the rescue crews and heading to the remote area and badly damaged town. Nonetheless, President Bachelet said in an address to the nation Saturday night that a million of the buildings had been damaged and destroyed. And with television stations showing topsy-turvy structures, severed bridges and highways whose pavement looked as if it had been tilled by some giant farm machine, the death toll was expected to rise.
Santiago International Airport will be closed at least through Monday, officials said. Although the runways are in good condition, the control tower and customs facilities suffered extensive damage, officials said.
Besides that, Santiago also faces a mass transit chaos, subway system will be closed down indefinitely while the track are inspected. President Bachelet also urged the citizens not to use major thoroughfares because the traffic light is out of service and a lot of pedestrian bridges has totally collapsed.
Meanwhile the tsunami early warning message has just gone down where the waves of ocean is smaller than peoples expected. Hawaii, Japan, Australia and China currently have no reports on tsunami hit and casualty report.

Inverted Nipple -- The Knowledge of Breast
Have you spotted your breast or nipples protract all because when breastfeeding, as well as using the breast pump and during pregnancy caused you have an inverted nipples ?
Well, here is your answer : An inverted nipples or formerly known as invaginated nipples, is the nipples instead pointing outside, it is retracted inside the breast. Why is it happened ? ALL BECAUSE of during pregnancy , or even resulted by the breastfeeding. Some of the mothers naturally have inverted nipples, so when they feed the children, it won't be have any pain and complication in feeding, however, for the inexperienced mothers may experience an average pain and soreness when attempting to nurse.
Besides, the use of breast pump or even suction device may caused the inverted nipples as well. Also, frequent stimulation such as sexual intercourse such as nipple sucking also caused the inverted nipples too.
To curb this kind of situation, the most direct way is going for the plastic surgery. But, if a woman choose to have plastic surgery, the result MAY BE it will lose the breastfeed capacity permanently.
Another curing method is to have nipples being pierced, this method only allows if the nipples temporarily protracted. Because the pierced jewellery prevents the nipples from protract, and it might be have adverse effects. The success of this method, everyone's opinion is mixed.
Besides this strategies, is that you can use special device which is specifically designed to draw out inverted niplpes or a homemade nipple protractor can be constructed out of a 10cc dispoable syringe. Noted that this kind of method is use when the preparation for the breastfeeding is going on.
Two methods which are now discouraged are breast shells and also the Hoffman technique. The first one may be used to apply gentle constant pressure to the areola in order to try and break any adhesions under the skin that are preventing the nipple from being drawn out. The shells are worn inside the bra.
However, the Hoffman technique is a nipple stretching exercise that may help loosen the adhesions at the base of the nipples when performed several times a day. Although both techniques are heavily promoted, but there is a report and research in 1992, report shows that not only do shells and the Hoffman technique not promote more successful breastfeeding, they may actually disrupt it.

Chile Earthquake
BREAKING NEWS ! BREAKING NEWS! EARTHQUAKE AT CHILE SET OFF THE TSUNAMI.
( Source from AFP )
A massive 8.8-magnitude earthquake has struck central Chile, shaking the capital for a minute-and-a-half and setting off a tsunami, which triggered international alerts.
Buildings collapsed and phone lines and electricity were down, making the extent of the damage difficult to determine.
At least 16 people were killed when the earthquake struck, Chilean President Michelle Bachelet announced.
"We have had a huge earthquake," Bachelet said, speaking from an emergency response centre in an appeal for Chileans to remain calm.
"We're doing everything we can with all the forces we have. Any information we will share immediately."
Bachelet said early reports were that six people had been killed, and "without a doubt, with an earthquake of this magnitude, there will be more deaths".
She urged people to avoid travelling in the dark, since traffic lights are down, to avoid causing more fatalities.
The quake hit at 3:34am (1734 AEDT) and was centred 325 kilometres southwest of the capital, Santiago, at a depth of 35 kilometres the US Geological Survey reported.
The epicentre was just 115 kilometres from Concepcion, Chile's second-largest city, where more than 200,000 people live along the Bio Bio river, and 60 miles from the ski town of Chillan, a gateway to Andean ski resorts that was destroyed in a 1939 earthquake.
An Associated Press Television News cameraman said some buildings have collapsed in Santiago, where power was out in parts of the city.
An important church was among the buildings that came down in the central city of Providencia, where window glass shattered into the streets and people ran from multistorey buildings, according to TV Chile.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre issued a warning for Chile and Peru, and a less-urgent tsunami watch for Ecuador, Colombia, Panama and Costa Rica.
It said a tsunami could also hit Hawaii later in the day.
"Sea level readings indicate a tsunami was generated. It may have been destructive along coasts near the earthquake epicentre and could also be a threat to more distant coasts," the centre said.
The US west coast tsunami warning centre said it did not expect a tsunami along the west of the US or Canada but was continuing to monitor the situation.
Australia is also on tsunami watch, with the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) warning of a potential threat to NSW, Queensland, Lord Howe Island and Norfolk Island.
"Tsunami waves have been observed on the coast of Chile that may threaten Australia," it said in a statement.
Japan's meteorological agency also warned of a tsunami risk across large areas of the Pacific as US geologists said the risk extended as far as the Antarctic.
"There is a possibility that tsunami will widely occur in the Pacific Ocean," an official for the Japanese agency said.
"We are now checking if tsunami may hit Japanese coastal areas."
The largest earthquake ever recorded struck the same area of Chile on May 22, 1960.
The magnitude-9.5 quake killed 1,655 people and left two million homeless. The tsunami that it caused killed people in Hawaii, Japan and the Philippines and caused damage to the West Coast of the United States.
WARNING ! Earthquake strikes Chile !
A measuring about 8.8 scale Ritcher earthquake have just hit on central Chile about 1.5 minutes and then set off a massive tsunami. The report said there is 6 peoples having been killed because of the damage of the earthquake.
Speaking from an emergency response center, the President said, "We have had a huge earthquake. We're doing everything we can with all the forces we have. Any information we will share immediately."
The President also asked people to not travel in dark as traffic lights are down.
The massive earthquake hit at 3:34 a.m. (0634 GMT; 1:34 a.m. EST). It was centered 200 miles southwest of the capital, Santiago, at a depth of 22 miles.
TV Chile reported that among the buildings that collapsed , was a Church in central city of Providencia. There was chaos as people were running from high rise buildings and glass shattering from the buildings.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said, "Sea level readings indicate a tsunami was generated. It may have been destructive along coasts near the earthquake epicenter and could also be a threat to more distant coasts." So a warning was issued for Chile and Peru and not so urgent watch for Ecuador, Columbia, Costa Rica, Panama and Antarctica. There was a warning for Hawaii as a tsunami could hit there later in the day.
Chile have had a huge quake hit it on May 22, 1960 of magnitude-9.5. 1,655 people were killed and 2 million lost their homes. The resultant tsunami had killed many people in Japan, Hawaii and Philippines. There was some damage to US West Coast also.
However this time the U.S. west coast tsunami warning center has said that they do not think a tsunami will reach west of US or Canada but still they are keeping a close watch as the situation develops in Chile earthquake 2010.But mostly by the earthquake Chile has been affected. Naturally memories of recent Haiti earthquake have been reawakened by the new Chile quake. We will keep you posted on the relief and rescue efforts in quake affected Chile.

Sports Photography : Guide to master the techniques and tips
In digital photography, the category of sports photography is a toughest challenge among the other categories. The sports people do not present an easy task of being photographed because of the amount of high movement. However, you can indeed achieve great sports digital photography. Most excellent sports digital photography requires good planning and execution.
Here are some exclusive tips for gaining fantastic sports shots in your digital photography.
First things first; know your digital camera. I recommend taking note and practicing first all the settings that sports photography needed. You may find yourself going for the faster shutter speed, increased ISO and burst mode. Let’s take a look at all these things on your digital camera and see how they can be applied to give you sensational sports photos.
If there is a budget problem, you can choose a cheaper camera such as EOS 7D, it just cost you around USD 1700 or less.
High shutter speeds:
As with all moving objects, in order to capture the “frozen in time” look in digital photography a fast shutter speed is required. The faster the movement the fast the shutter speed will need to be. In digital photography the general consensus is that the shutter speed needs to be faster than that of the subject. For example if you have a sliding puck across ice and there is a someone about to take a dive for it then its necessary to quickly mentally assess how fast that person might be traveling at. If they are traveling at approximately 50 kilometers (approx 32 miles) per hour then you may find a very fast shutter speed is needed for this digital photo.
Source : AFP ( Winter Olympics 2010 , Vancouver)
Keep in mind that in digital photography a fast shutter speed works to reduce some of the light which is why a higher ISO is often necessary. (I’ll talk about that in a minute.) Usually a if a ball, such as a baseball going at around 145 kilometers an hour (90.09 miles per hour) a shutter speed of around 1/4000 will get you that “suspended ball in mid air” type of photo. For physical movement, such as someone leaping to catch a football, a shutter speed of 1/500 or over is a good place to start.
Now this is all very well if your scene if well lit. But what if you are taking your digital photography shots indoors at night and the light is not quite enough to provide enough light? In most instances, an indoor stadium at night time will be well lit, but that doesn’t always ensure good digital photos. In sports photography we need to understand that we can only control the artistic value and input of our digital photo and the control of the camera. We can’t control the lighting on the scene being such a public event. In digital photography sports photos we must realize that it’s going to be a challenge to begin with. So here are something’s you can in your digital sports photography to increase the amount of light.
If you have a light tool on your digital camera such as a histogram you can get a good idea of what the light levels are like on your sensor. With this handy tool you can adjust the ISO at the time of your pictures taking.
Increase your ISO: A high ISO in digital photography simply means the sensitivity to light that your digital camera has. In a nutshell the more ISO you have increased the image to, the less light the sensor needs. In sports photography an ISO of 400 or higher can work really well. The downside to this is that it does increase noise. To combat this you can use noise reduction software in the post editing process such as Noise Ninja or increase the LAB mode in the post editing process. Don’t be afraid to try a few shots at 400, 800 and even as high as 1600.
Burst mode:
In most sports digital photography this will be one of the settings you will turn to. Burst mode is also known as ‘continuous shooting’. This ‘continuous’ shooting mode allows you to get a sequence of shoots in succession. You can increase your chances of getting that ideal “split second perfect shot” that you might not be able to get by pre-emption or in normal shooting. This also works so beautifully if your digital camera has a painfully long lag time. I’ve used this so many times to get around the high lag my Sony Cyber shot has got. Some cameras have 3 frames per second and some go up to 12 frames per second. You simply select this mode and hold your finger on the shutter button and it will fire off as many shots in 1 second as it can.
Okay so I’ve been talking about your digital camera and the setting’s used for ideal sports digital photography, so what about any external equipment? If you have been thinking about this you’re spot on. You can take as much time with your settings but there’s not much point if you can’t get close to the action. There’s no point having a picture with perfect lighting and perfect action if the players are like dots on a sheet of paper. You need a good telephoto lens if you can’t get close up. A telephoto lens brings you closer because of its long distance capability. It will get you closer to the action but will need a faster shutter speed.
Many fantastic sports digital photos are taken with an emphasis on a very fast shutter speed, an f stop of around the 2.8 mark to blur the background and focus in on the subject. You may find that if your sportsperson is visually separated from the background and you take the digital photograph with a telephoto lens you’ll have a more shallow depth of field which can give you a more powerful feeling in your digital photo. You can get away with a good optical zoom lens, but you’ll get far better digital sports shots with a proper telephoto.
So what about the artistic side of sports photography with your digital camera? Plenty!
Pre-emption and Emotion is the key to good art.
When taking sports photography you probably won’t find a more public display of human emotion. The emotions of a sports person range from intense anticipation to extreme disappointment or extreme exhilaration. Pre-empting when these emotions take place is they key to getting artistic and impressive sports photos. This comes with practicing your digital photography.
SO much pressure is placed on our athletes, expecting them to perform so we can enjoy the show and the investors can enjoy their returns. This is another reason why I say to get a telephoto lens so you can capture the emotions on their faces and their body language. It makes for superb photography. For ideas on ice hockey, have a look at some ice hockey images that are great study tools.
Don't hesitate anything, don't think a lot on how to take, and don't just look on the photo, your job is to study them and make a practice for yourself. Take on the attitude that studying sports photography will improve your digital sports photos ten fold. You will have a style to emulate and copy to start with then eventually, when you become confident, you’ll start to adopt your own style.
I remembered my master, Mr. Ruddiee Khaw, sports journalist have gave me a lesson, " Trust with your camera and your gears, no matter what model of camera you are, just click it confidently , it's 99% accuracy. " Just believe yourself you can do better in sports photography.
This is one of my artwork at Sepang F1 International Circuit http://alanthedriftking.blogspot.com/2009/12/malaysia-super-series-greatest-time.html
You also can refer on ESPN Sports because they also have a lot of impressive photo inside.
HAPPY SHOOTING
