Michael, can you also test core scaling disabling one core per module? So that we can confront IPC with CMT enabled and disabled, mainly with four threads in this two cases:
1) 2 modules active, 2 cores per module active = 4 threads with CMT
2) 4 modules active, 1 core per module active = 4 threads without CMT
Nice article.
Interesting would be a comparison to the X6 1090T, to see if AMD was able to address the bottlenecks that plagued Bulldozer cores due to sharing resources with the other core in the same module.
I remember seeing similar tests back in the days when the first bulldozer came out, and IIRC some motherboards allow to do this directly from bios. An user reported an increase of IPC of about 6% on cinebench with the FX-8320, but I couldn't find any review that tested this situation deeply.

Which Factors Make Successful Softball Players?
There are a range of physical and mental factors that contribute to successful performance in sports, as listed below. Not all of these factors are important for Softball Players - and that is what this survey is to determine. Please add your rating to as how important you think each of these factors are to the success of Softball Players. If you are unsure, you don't have to answer. You can read a more detailed description of the factors. This survey is an extension of a previous (though still active) poll asking you to select the single most important FITNESS component for softball.
What do you think is important?
Use the stars to give a rating from 1 to 5 stars, using this rating scale.
Even if you think a factor is not important, please still give it a one-star rating.
NOTE: this table has recently been reset due to a database problem, so the ratings may be unreliable until more votes are cast.
Your votes are recorded and counted as you click. Thanks to everyone for giving your opinion. You can see the results only. Do you have a high level of knowledge of the requirements of this sport? We are looking at getting your expert opinion on the above factors - see here.

It's just to bad though they aren't playing nice now.
They even seem to be getting worse..
(spotted it on /.)
So that's pretty disgusting. God forbid I'd want to 'hack' my _own_f-ing_personal_property_
(and _no_ it's not going to help stop piracy. And _no_ it's not going to help companies protect trade secrets. and _no_ it's not going to help me stay safe from viruses or anything bizzare like that. What all this stuff ultimately means is that if somebody pays ATI or Microsoft or whoever controls the DRM licensing they will be given more control over my computer then I am _allowed_ to have.)
It's not looking good.
Still waiting on AMD for the development slides to post
awww maybe they're coinciding it with the r600 launch? hehe might be waiting a while then.
ATI needs to step up this year..It won't take much effort from Intel to become the number 2 preferred GPU for Linux...Their 1st release could probably outperform ATI the way things are now.

Shirley Sherrod Goes Under Obama's Bus
One more take on the Shirley Sherrod story — because this outrage is too emblematic of the Obama Regime to let his media pals stuff it down the Memory Hole:
Now that we have a "post-racial" presidency, the word racism is getting such heavy use that it is literally wearing out, so that people are forgetting what it means. But it still does have a meaning, representing a poison that is twisting our country against itself and eating away at the crucial concept of equality before the law. For a reminder of what racism really is, readers are referred to the rabidly racist NAACP — or for an even scarier example, the Obama Administration.
Here Department of Agriculture's Georgia Director of Rural Development Shirley Sherrod describes to a delighted NAACP audience how she stuck it to Whitey:
He had to come to me for help. What he didn't know while he was taking all that time trying to show me he was superior to me was I was trying to decide just how much help I was going to give him. I was struggling with the fact that so many black people have lost their farmland and here I was faced with having to help a white person save their land — so I didn't give him the full force of what I could do.
Having been caught on video admitting to punishing a random white guy for her own ethnic inferiority complex, Sherrod has joined the crowd under Obama's bus. But there's no reason she should have been forced to resign. Her attitude is what white liberals voted to have inflicted on their less affluent fellow Caucasians, so as to purify them of their imaginary sins against political correctness. What other attitude could you expect from the Administration of an openly racist radical leftist who made remarks like these in a book that could be found on most liberals' coffee tables:
That hate hadn't gone away … white people — some cruel, some ignorant, sometimes a single face, sometimes just a faceless image of a system claiming power over our lives.
There were enough of us on campus to constitute a tribe, and when it came to hanging out, many of us chose to function like a tribe, staying close together, traveling in packs … It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.
I found solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race.
A few more glimpses into our "post-racial" president's attitudes toward the white race that he is fixing but good by systematically destroying America:
Obama sat for 20 years in a church based on hatred of Caucasians. Not even liberals could be clueless enough not to have expected the mammoth federal bureaucracy soon to be clotted with the likes of Shirley Sherrod. Caucasians are now second-class citizens in this country, as the Justice Department has confirmed.
Next stop, Zimbabwe.

On a serious note here... I'm used to referring to 'chrome-face' CC as being in 'battle helmet'. Is there another, more common fan term that I should be using? 'Combat helmet'? 'Metal mask'?
I'm completely serious. I know it's not the first time I've mentioned it, and probably not the first time someone's questioned it.
"Bumper Face" should work. Isn't that what Gung-Ho use to call him on the cartoon?

Cohesive Red Sox open title defense in Baltimore
Boston enters 2014 with core intact; Orioles welcome challenge
Once again, the Boston Red Sox are confident of certain things -- for instance, the group of players they've assembled.
"It's all about people selection," Red Sox manager John Farrell said. "You've got to do your homework and find the right people who fit what you're trying to establish."
There may have been a time -- and not that long ago -- when people wondered if Boston had the right stuff. During a brutal 2012 season, everything from the Red Sox's attitude to their effort was questioned.
And then, general manager Ben Cherington remade the roster by signing seven free agents, most of them unheralded team-first guys who had plenty to prove.
The Red Sox turned the 2013 season into a magical ride that ended with the hoisting of the Commissioner's Trophy at Fenway Park. Now, with today's 3:05 p.m. ET season opener, Boston begins the defense of its third championship in 10 seasons against the Orioles at Camden Yards. These two teams are dramatically different and coming off very different seasons. But they're alike in some ways, too.
Everything the Red Sox accomplished last season began with Cherington changing the environment, both with an infusion of veteran players like Jonny Gomes and Mike Napoli and by hiring a manager who won the respect and admiration of his players almost instantly.
"What Ben did with the roster last year, that's where all of this started," Farrell said. "He selected the right people. Any personal agendas and egos are going to get checked and put aside."
Orioles manager Buck Showalter would understand. He had a similar challenge when he took over his club in 2010. Showalter quickly fell in love with his core guys, especially Adam Jones and Matt Wieters.
In them, Showalter saw players almost desperate to win. All they needed was someone to show them the way, so this has been the perfect marriage of a manager and a team.
Showalter led the O's back to the playoffs in 2012, their first appearance since 1997. Now, as they prepare for a 2014 season in which they think they're good enough to win a championship, Showalter again believes the strength of his club begins with its attitude, effort and teamwork.
"These guys had their noses bloodied for a long time," Showalter said, "and they got tired of it. They had a taste of what it can be like two years ago, and they want more of that."
The Orioles have gotten better during a late burst of spending, grabbing both pitcher Ubaldo Jimenez and outfielder Nelson Cruz off the free-agent market. If third baseman Manny Machado returns from a gruesome left knee injury, he could team with first baseman Chris Davis to give the O's the best lineup in the American League East.
Right-hander Chris Tillman will get the ball on Opening Day, and he was a dependable presence in Baltimore's rotation last season. It's the depth behind him that could hurt the Orioles, but Jimenez is a significant addition.
Now about those similarities. Both the O's and Red Sox are built around strong, veteran leaders, Dustin Pedroia in one clubhouse, Jones in the other. In terms of the things that can be felt but not seen, the things that are critically important yet almost impossible to measure, these are two of baseball's model franchises, respected and admired throughout the sport.
The AL East, a division that appears to have four very evenly matched teams in the Rays, Red Sox, Orioles and Yankees, might feature the most interesting race in baseball this season.
These Red Sox are different from the team that won last year's World Series. They lost center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury and shortstop Stephen Drew to free agency, and right-hander Ryan Dempster decided to spend this season away from the game. But the Sox believe they've got enough organizational depth -- and creativity -- to win again.
They're hoping Xander Bogaerts, their best prospect, will step in at shortstop. As for center field, the original plan was for another kid, Jackie Bradley Jr., to take over for Ellsbury.
But veteran Grady Sizemore, who hasn't played a game in the big leagues in almost three years, has had a tremendous spring and could be experiencing a career rebirth at 31.
Those changes aside, the Red Sox still have most of their main guys, from Pedroia and David Ortiz to John Lackey and Opening Day starter Jon Lester.
One of the things other baseball people admire the most about Boston is the club's attitude, effort and competitive fire. Plenty of that fire comes from Pedroia, the undisputed leader of the defending champs.
But a similar thread runs throughout the clubhouse. So when Farrell got the usual questions about complacency and losing a competitive edge this spring, he had no concerns.
For one thing, the Red Sox simply haven't talked about winning another World Series. They've focused on the process and nothing else. Get better today. Work hard. Don't think big picture.
"Some of those words -- defend, repeat -- look back," Farrell said. "Our mindset is we have to go out and win. Whatever happens after that, if it ends up being something even more unique than a year ago, so be it. Again, whether it's the first day of camp and what we discuss or conversations throughout the course of the entire offseason, that's over."
This isn't to say the Red Sox are a lock to repeat. There'll be challenges they can't foresee. But in terms of big-picture things like attitude and effort and cohesiveness, Boston is unlikely to be any different in 2014.
"There are going to be things that come our way this year," Farrell said. "We don't know what they're going to be. Injuries. Performance. Whatever those challenges are, as long as we meet them and respond to them as we did a year ago, [we'll succeed]. That's as a team, as a group, not splintering. That's my job and the staff's job, monitoring that and keeping a cohesive direction for all of us."

We're welcoming Hal Sparks this week to our Downtown Club, Wednesday thru Saturday! Get to know him tonight in this Metromix interview below by Amy Bartner, then come see him tomorrow at Crackers!
The mark of any good comedian, Hal Sparks says, is one who can come up with a good joke when he's put on the spot.
Good thing, because we think the mark of any good interviewer is to put people on the spot. So we did.
"It's more of a prank than a joke," said the 41-year-old who was raised in the Midwest. "Since the holidays are over, this one's a good one. I recommend it for next year if you do it. Wrap a box and don't label it and just watch and see who'll stare at it. There's always one relative who'll just continue to look at it."
Trick is, he said, to wait until the holidays are over — and then carefully unwrap the gift and fill it with something they've already received. Wrap it again, and give it to the staring relative. Sparks' uncle will get a second book about curing hams this year.
"Who the hell would buy two of those?"
Having a quick wit isn't all there is to comedy, said the former "Queer As Folk" and VH1 pop-culture list show star. We got a chance to talk to Sparks before he comes to Crackers Downtown Jan. 12-15. The comedian, who moonlights as a rock star, actor and talking head, had a lot to say (and ended his sentences with the phrase "as it were" no fewer than a dozen times).
You grew up in the Cincinnati area before moving to Chicago. Did you ever visit Indy as a kid?
This is my first time exploring Indy as an adult, so I don't know if I still want to go play Airsoft or something. I'll spend most of my time finding the healthiest place to eat, the most unique place to go and developing a habit that by the time I've left a city, it feels like I've been there a month.I don't drink, so I don't end up going to bars, and a lot of times I have to protect my voice. After my show, I've had it. I pretty much go home. The visiting is nice, but the people who pay on Saturday deserve as good of a show on Thursday.
You don't drink?
I've never had an alcoholic drink in my life, and part of the reason was that I saw it as a road to nowhere from contemporaries. Almost as a sign, it's "oh, he's drinking, shit is not good."You're a pescatarian. Why?
There's an element of major cruelty to it and I don't want to participate, mostly, though, it's because of health concerns. No thank you. I'll pass. I find, quite frankly, I feel better with a largely fish- and vegetable-based diet. I'm 41 and people tell me all the time that I don't look it.
Now for a serious question: How do you view your role as a comedian in society?
I'd rather make trouble than make peace as far as my comedy goes. And not trouble in the happy way. Real trouble is when you go after people's worldview, and you can't mince words — but the main goal is to be funny. You have to deal with huge topics in a really silly way. It has to be politics, sex and religion at the core.The court jester used to have a very important role — he was there to entertain the king — because if the king got pissed at anyone in particular, he would execute them at will, and oftentimes those were the most useful people. That's pretty much it. The only difference is in our society, the crowd is king and perceives itself as such. We've become a democracy of kings. Everyone sits on their thrones and flips the channels saying, "Off with his head, off with his head."
The main thing is that you're funny, and after that, all bets are off. Other than that I, I have no opinion. (Laughs.)
So you avoid making the "easy" jokes?
In the end, you end up saying something worth hearing instead of making fun of ethnic groups, making fun of gay people, making fun of women and leaving the stage no better than when they stepped on it.You're everywhere. You've appeared on eight "I Love the (enter decade here)" shows, had cameos in "Spider-Man II" and "Dude Where's My Car," hosted E!'s "Talk Soup" and appeared on several reality shows. What do you hope the public thinks about that?
I hope they think, "This man has got me surrounded." Literally, come out with your hands up — I am at every window of your television set. I don't mind whether they like me or not as long as they think I'm a smart son of a bitch. That's a healthy place to be. I was raised by my dad to be a wise-ass. Better to be a wise-ass than a dumb ass.How do you think those VH1 list shows (and you) will be remembered?
Pure pop-culture dissection is a healthy thing. Insofar as the American culture goes, we make up with width in what we lack in depth. We don't have Mozart, but we have loooots of R & B singers. We don't have baroque singers, but we do have the top country artists worldwide. In a very short time, we've had an incredible impact on the world's culture.We get embarrassed by it because we picture people wearing Snoop Dogg and Justin Timberlake T-shirts in Iran, and I think we're ashamed and we don't need to be. We have a lot to be ashamed of on the world stage, and that ain't it.
Why'd you do so many of those VH1 shows?
To be completely mercenary about the whole thing, I had people pointing at me and saying "'Talk Soup' guy." And when I was on "Queer as Folk," there was a lot of "Mikey!" so I sought to reconcile that and take any show that would print my name under my face. I'm of the belief that most typecasting when it occurs is your fault as an actor, because you took the role instead of you saying no when you should have.Tell us something we don't know about those shows.
You shoot from a room by yourself. It's just green screen behind you. There's nothing else. No one's waiting just off camera waiting for their turn, we're not sitting around a table shooting the shit. I look like I'm just dicking around with friends, and that's my intention, and that brings a bit of joy to the show itself. That's the way standup has to work, it can't look like effort.
Speaking of, do you ever get nervous to go on stage?
It's sort of a Zen practice. Whatever work you do, if you do it long enough, it should be effortless. Pro-athletes should get to the point where game day is their zone. I've been doing standup for 26 years now, there's a certain point where if I can't come up with a joke if you ask me something, it should be fairly sad. I guess I just kind of relax into it and really try to make a game out of it, make it fun, otherwise it'll come across as work. And you can see that's really hard for me.
"Queer as Folk" sort-of put you in the role of gay civil rights leader or activist. Do you see yourself in that way?
I think that's someplace I found myself accidentally because of the show. The important thing was to seize it and service that experience and to be up to the task. Once you're in that position, then you have a responsibility to work to make it more positive. In my way of thinking, it can't not have an impact on the community; how can I best turn this into a positive?I've always said that the benefit of "Queer as Folk" would not be seen until four years after the show went off the air, and that's true almost to the date. Our civil rights struggle is one of age and death. It did exactly what it needed to, and going in, I knew it would. That was the best part of it, was knowing you're making history. I wasn't necessarily necessary keen on kissing a man or simulating sex with a man, but it was too important to pass up. Just because something is difficult doesn't mean it's not worth doing.
I've done every AIDs walk in the country. I've raised money and done shows for multiple equality organizations. Because I can. There's worth in it. Continuously, I still get asked if I'm gay or straight. What they're really asking, "Are you gay yet?" Which either means that I've been lying about who I am or I haven't figured it out yet. It's important to me to let people know who I am fully. It's important to have straight allies who are turgid in their sexuality.
You're in a rock band called Zero 1. What are you guys like?
Oh, we're awesome. (Laughs.) It's metal. Melodic metal, along the road of Skid Row and Ozzy meets Alice In Chains. I like elements of complexity in my music, while still keeping it gutteral and fun.What's next for Zero 1?
World domination. I want to make honest music that I really love and that the fans can really get into. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to write hit songs and play large places. I like arena rock. I like a lot of people smiling and having a good time.You've given CPR to three people in your life: once at a public pool when you were 15, once about 12 years ago and again this last May when a man had a heart attack at LAX. Why does this stuff keep happening around you?
I was a Boy Scout, so I don't run from those circumstances. My mom's a nurse. I tend to live in high-stress environments because of the way I live. So maybe that's why?
You're in a small, but memorable bit part in "Spider-Man II." Why'd you take that part?
A fan e-mailed me that on one of the spoiler websites, they were looking for a comedian to do an improv scene with Spider-Man. A, it's in "Spider-Man," B, it's going to be a blockbuster and it's an improv scene. I went in and heard all the comedians before me. It was some of the worst improv I had ever heard in my life, and it really made me angry. Everybody who went in there went "Spider-Man in an elevator, what?" "Why are you in an elevator, Spider-Man?" I thought, oh my god, I'm going to kill someone.That was really fun. It was the only time Toby was in a suit the whole time. He improvised with me. He's a really good guy and Sam Raimi said it turned out to be his favorite scene in the film.
Hal Sparks plays six shows Jan. 12-15 at Crackers Downtown, 247 S. Meridian St. Tickets are $10-$20; visit www.shop.crackerscomedy.com, or call (317) 255-4211.

The apparent decline of the Emperor Gum Moth (EGM), Opodiphthera eucalypti, around Victoria has been a hot topic of debate amongst entomologists and other EGM fans in the last few years.

The decline is anecdotal and as yet there is no hard evidence, but theories abound. Many people contact us noting that they don't see EGM caterpillars anymore, as they did when climbing trees as a kid. Which prompts a question in return: "When did you last climb a tree?"
Male Emperor Gum Moths have enormous feathery antennae used to detect the presence of females.Image: Patrick HonanSource: Museum Victoria
Another possibility is the demise of the introduced Peppercorn Tree (Schinus molle) in Victoria. Originally from the Peruvian Andes, Peppercorns were planted in every Victorian primary school and many parks from the 1880s to the early 1900s. EGM caterpillars, although feeding naturally on eucalypts, will also consume Silver Birch (Betula pendula) and Liquidambar (Liquidambar styraciflua), as well as Peppercorns. Victorians who went to primary school up until the 1970s would be very familiar with EGM caterpillars feeding on Peppercorns, but the trees have gradually died out or been removed until now there are very few left. Peppercorns are now considered an environmental weed.

The colour of adult Emperor Gum Moths varies considerably throughout their range.Image: Patrick HonanSource: Patrick Honan
Another strong possibility is the intrinsic variation in insect populations. Many species undergo booms and busts, appearing in vast numbers one year then apparently disappearing for several years afterwards, sometimes for a decade or more. These fluctuations are usually climate related, with each species requiring an exact combination of factors (such as a mild winter and a wet summer) in a particular order to afford them a boom year. Perhaps the last couple of decades have not produced the right combination for EGMs, and they're just waiting for their number to come up.
The dreaded European Wasp. Workers tear EGM caterpillars off trees and cut them into small pieces before transporting them back to the nest.Image: Patrick HonanSource: Patrick Honan
One of the most popular theories is attack by European Wasps (Vespula germanica) on EGM caterpillars. Caterpillars are a favoured prey of European Wasps, and they can do enormous damage when present in large numbers. However, somewhat ironically, after reaching plague proportions in the 1980s and 90s, wasp populations have dropped dramatically in the last 15 years or so, again for no discernible reason other than a possible combination of environmental factors.

In the end, any decline of EGMs probably comes down to habitat loss. The number of host gum trees has steadily reduced in urban areas in particular, but also in suburban areas and even rural towns. If fewer trees are available, there will naturally be fewer caterpillars. So if you're missing these iconic caterpillars, the best strategy is to plant a gum tree.
Young EGM caterpillars look very different to older caterpillars, but their presence is a possible sign of a healthy local environment.Image: Patrick HonanSource: Patrick Honan
But these theories are, at this stage, pure speculation. EGMs are still around, if you know where to look. A Museum Victoria Bioscan at Wilson's Promontory in 2011 attracted hundreds of EGM adults (as well as the closely related Helena Gum Moth, Opodiphthera helena) to light traps at night. And just last month, a dozen EGM caterpillars were on display in the Forest Gallery at Melbourne Museum. Plans are underway to assess the extent of the EGM decline in Victoria, so stay tuned for further developments.

Hi Pen - There are two types of insect larvae that bear the common name of Spitfires, but neither includes Emperor Gum caterpillars.
The insects most popularly known as Spitfires are Sawfly larvae, which form black masses on the branches of gum trees during winter. These develop into stout, wasp-like adults that are rarely seen. Sawfly larvae vomit a brown liquid when disturbed, but are otherwise harmless.
Cupmoth caterpillars are also known as Spitfires. These are small, colourful caterpillars with rosettes of stinging spines at each corner. They feed on gum leaves, sometimes occurring in large numbers during summer, and develop into drab brown moths.
We love receiving comments, but can't always respond.
Hi Juan,
Dr Angus Martin first observed this behaviour in The Victorian Naturalist in 1995, making the point that there are no leaf curling spiders in Europe, so this is a strategy developed by wasps after reaching Australia. They enter the shelter, cut the spider's legs off and carry the body back to the nest to feed the larvae. We have no idea what impact this has on spider populations as no further research has been carried out, but we can assume that in summers where wasp populations are high, the impact would be significant.

Gaspari Nutrition took Sports Nutrition to the highest level with the original SizeOn, the original intra-workout creatine drink. There wasn't any doubt it represented a serious innovative leap forward in the creatine category. The original SizeOn formula clearly demonstrated its effectiveness in a clinical setting and quickly became known as the King of Creatines.
As clinical research advances, so does Gaspari Nutrition, which is why Size-On has now evolved into the Ultimate Hybrid Intra-Workout Whey Hydrolysate Creatine Formula. Once again Gaspari Nutrition raises the bar even higher in the sports nutrition industry!*
Your body requires that proteins from whole food, whey isolate, casein, etc., be broken down in a process called "hydrolyzation." This is an integral process which allows di and tripeptides to be absorbed and utilized for numerous processes including muscle building and repair.
The problem is that while your muscles are starving for these nutrients (i.e., during exercise) your body must digest them into smaller peptides. Research has shown that these are absorbed even faster than free form amino acids. For this reason Gaspari Nutrition uses a high quality whey hydrolysate as well as a large array of anabolic promoting ingredients such as a high dose of L-Leucine (4 grams) to allow for unparalleled increases in athletic performance, skeletal muscle recovery, explosiveness and most notably, immediate increases in muscle size while you are still training.*
Furthermore Gaspari Nutritioin researchers have harnessed the power of pterostilbene, which is our patent pending and brand new insulinogenic secretegogue. Pterostilbene is, milligram per milligram, by far the most powerful insulinotropic compound ever utilized in a dietary supplement. To top it off, we also included LOLA, our cutting-edge ammonia scavenging amino acid salt of L-Ornithine and L-Aspartate, to help battle fatigue. The bottom line is that Gaspari Nutrition has once again outdone itself and yet again redefined the very category it created. *

To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
Canon has updated the original 400mm f4 DO lens using its new gapless diffractive optics construction, which promises high image quality. Read on to find out how well this new model performs. |
Canon has announced an updated version of their compact super telephoto zoom lens. The new EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 L II USM boasts a number of upgrades over its predecessor, which Canon claim improve both the image quality and handling of the new version. We preview what this latest lens has to offer and see how the original version performed in the DxOMark Lens tests. |
Tamron has released a new modestly priced, stabilized super-telephoto zoom for both full-frame and APS-C cameras, the SP 150-600mm f5-6.3 Di VC USD. How does this $1,100 model compare against the slightly shorter-range Sigma and Canon offerings? |
A favorite of wildlife and action photographers, Canon's EF100-400mm f4.5-5.6L IS USM is a well-specified and versatile model. However, as it approaches sixteen years in production, is it still capable of competing with more modern offerings? Read on to find out. |
Sigma are well known for their accessibly priced models and at just under $1,100 the 150-500mm f5-6.3 APO seems like a promising alternative to the premium offerings from the camera makers. Although one of the older models in the firm's range now, does it still have what it needs to compete with more modern rivals? |
Sigma's full-frame 50-500mm f4.5-6.3 stabilized telephoto zoom is a promising looking model for wildlife, nature and sports. At $1,660 it's temptingly priced for a lens of this potential, but how well does the Canon mount version perform? Read on to find out. |
With the vagaries of photographing wildlife, the flexibility of a telephoto zoom would appear to be an attractive solution. However, image quality is often a compromise at the maximum aperture and longest focal length, typically the most crucial settings. We've pulled some lens data from our database and put together a round up of popular zoom lenses over the years (and made some comparisons with high performance primes). Read on to find out which models have the best image quality. |

Canon 100-400, i am still interested in the test
Dear DXO-Team,
thank you for the very good software (i have paid for the first time, and for upgrades) and thank you for the very good tests (which are for free) I am still interestet in the test of the canon 100-400! You are promissing the test for many months...... Of course: your tests are for free for us: So we normaly should not complain..... But please make a decision: will it be tested soon (than it is wonderful), or will it take a long time to realize the test => then please write it clearly! Thank you Karsten Reply | Read all replies for this comment |

Dear DXO-Team: In your last Comment, you promissed the test of the Canon 100-400 for the first week of December (2013...). Now we have the last day of December - the test ist still not available.
It's a great pity. Best regards and best wishes for the new year Karsten (a dxo-user; starting with 4.0 - upgrading stepwise to now 9.0) Reply |

Re: Canon 100-400, i am still interested in the test
I know we are very late on this lens and we are sorry about that. But it remains one of our top priorities and should be reviewed as soon as possible (hopefully in January). Best regards, The DxOMark team Reply |

Canon 100-400
The logic of delaying testing because this is an old lens escapes me. It is also a current lens and one that is widely used. There are of course persistent rumours of a MkII. If that occurs, a current test of this lens will be even more important, as users will need to see if the new version warrants the likely very significant upgrade price.
It has been on "by the end of this month" status for at least a year. Can you/will you give us a firm commitment to a date for the test and meet it? Thanks. Reply | Read all replies for this comment |

canon 100-400, when it will be testet?
I am interested in the announced test for the canon 100-400. In March the test was announced for march, in April it was announced for April. In May it was announced for may. Now (1. June) it is announced for June => it seems to me: in July it will be announced for July?
Can you give a realistic information when/whether it will be tested? Thank you for helping and your very professional tests! Best regards - Karsten Reply | Read all replies for this comment |

Thanks for your interest in DxOMark. Sorry for this delay, there are many new lenses to be tested in priority. So this old lens is always delayed but we did not forget it ;). We should be able to measure it for fall 2013. Best regards, The DxOMark team Reply |

Re: canon 100-400, when it will be testet?
Dear dxomark,
I consider your service very valuable. I no longer choose a camera or a lens without first consulting your test results. For example, I own a Canon 100-400 zoom lens since many years. I have since moved to a Nikon D800e with a Nikon 85mm and a sigma 35mm. I am looking for one or two telephoto prime lenses for my D800e to replace my Canon 5D camera and zoom lenses. But I am now at a standstill for two reasons: You have no data on the Canon 100-400. You also have no data on Nikon telephoto lenses, zoom or prime. I think that you guys are spreading yourself too thin and possibly working by the wrong priorities. I do not understand why you test the same lens on 10 different cameras. Yes, I understand that there is some interplay between camera and lens and occasional surprises in a combination. But the cost of what you are now doing is that you do not have time to produce the results that we are waiting for. You need to streamline your priorities: Cameras: 1. Test all camera sensors as you presently do. 2. For each manufacturer select the top sensor and make that camera your lens test vehicle. Nikon D800E, Canon 5D3 etc. 3. Now use your database to establish a relative score factor for each lower score camera of each manufacturer. This should be expressed as a percentage of the top camera of each manufacturer. Lenses: 4. Test lenses on the above top cameras. DO NOT test lenses on second or lower ranking cameras. Instead use the above relative performance percentages to predict a result. 5. If you later have time to refine your test results, fine, do that. 6. BUT FIRST WE NEED A RANKING BETWEEN CAMERAS AND THEN WE NEED RESULTS ON ALL AVAILABLE LENSES TESTED ON THE TOP CAMERAS FROM EACH MANUFACTURER. Reply |

Re: canon 100-400, when it will be testet?
I should have said:
6. BUT FIRST WE NEED A RANKING BETWEEN THE TOP CAMERAS (IMAGE SENSORS) AND THEN WE NEED TEST RESULTS ON LENSES, STARTING WITH TOP LENSES TESTED ON THE TOP CAMERAS. 7. FORGET ABOUT THE LOWER 80% OF CAMERAS AND LENSES. PEOPLE WHO BUY THESE DO NOT RELY ON YOUR TEST RESULTS, OR BUY YOUR SOFTWARE. Reply |

Unless you mean the illuminati in my neck of the woods otherwise known as west penn power, then you just call them for service.

They must be invited by a current member. As for help in business here's some advice: get up at 5:00am every day, check your books and bank account. Get to work at least an hour before anyone else. Check all your equipment to make sure it's ready to work. Always greet your employees with a smile and listen to any grievances or ideas they may have. Treat all your customers with respect, but watch for crooks and thieves. Buy low and sell high. Never never ever cheat anyone. Work whatever hours, days, or holidays you need to, to make sure you're ready for the next day. Do all this and more and you will have a 50/50 chance of success. And to quote curly, "if at first you don't succeed just keep on sucking til you do succeed.

My Filipino Adobo
Although I love my local cuisine just as much as the next Filipino (which is to say a lot!), I am an absolute beginner when it comes to cooking Filipino food. That's why, when Bee of the fabulous blog Rasa Malaysia asked me to guest-write a post on a Filipino dish I was a bundle of nervousness, despite being over-the-moon flattered! I am just at the beginning of my journey through Filipino cooking and I am still fumbling through some of the twists and turns. Even so, I was very excited and I knew what I wanted to write about – adobo! Aside from it being one of those dishes that are immediately related to the Philippines, I am currently in the thick of adobo experimentation. You see, I never cooked this dish when I was younger (it was always prepared by someone else) so it is only now that I am flush with infatuation at adobo's many faces...
Find out where I'm at with my National Dish over at Rasa Malaysia where I post my thoughts, along with my basic recipe for Filipino Adobo :)
***I am in love with how Bee pimped up my photo with text! I know, I know...a lot of bloggers do this, and it is nothing new, but I haven't the foggiest how it's done so I'm still so dorkily thrilled!

Just found your site from RM. Just adore it!
That was a terrific article on adobo, Joey!!! You really captured what an essential role adobo plays in our cuisine, and I like that you emphasized how infinite the versions and possibilities are.
I didn't use to be interested in learning to make adobo (or most Filipino dishes), since it isn't one of my favorites. Plus, cooking dishes we grew up with is so much more daunting, since everyone will always compare it to the version they like. But I've recently decided that I want to learn to make my own (simple) version of adobo, partly just so that I know how, and partly because F loves it. I even just bought The Adobo Book! Though, there were so many recipes in there that I got even more confused. So I've been eagerly awaiting the results of Socky's and your experimentation, and I was so excited to see that you've posted your recipe! I will surely use it as a guide when I embark on my own quest for MY adobo recipe. :-) - 8:13 PM

Oh that looks wonderful. Going to check out your recipe. May be dinner this week.

Recipe over at RM looks great!
re: image, if you have image editing software that allows layers, you can easily do it. My guess is that she made a new layer, selected the shape of the stripe she wanted, filled in a dark color, then made it partially transparent so the background would show through. It also looks like she set the layer to a subtle "outer glow", a layer style in Photoshop. Then of course, add the text on top in whatever colors/fonts you want. - 10:37 PM

Mmmm your adobo looks sooo good! I like the idea of marinating everything before adding the water -- I'm trying this next time!
Also, what are your thoughts on adobo in a slow cooker? - 11:17 PM

I am SUCH a beginner at Filipino food and I have yet to scour my dad's and lola's knowledge of all the yummy Kapampangan stuff they make. I really have to do so soon! - 12:53 AM

Hey Joey,
Thanks for guest writing. FYI, there is a typo in Rasa Malaysia.
Rasa not Raya, lol, it's pretty funny actually as Raya is a real Malay word. ;) - 3:14 AM

Giff - yes, you got it all right as to the text on the picture.
It's all Photoshop. :) - 3:17 AM

Hi Franco! Thank you!!!
Thanks Rosa!
Thank you Maya for visiting! :)
Hi Katina! Thank you so much! Being such an amateur compared to other Filipino cooks, I am so happy that you think I captured part of the truth of this dish that has been written about by many. The fact that adobo can be adapted so many ways is what I love most about it :) I know what you mean about cooking Filipino food...learning to cook these local dishes we grew up with IS daunting – especially with the way each family always has a "favourite" that can't be matched! But, as is your plan, go make your own! Even if it doesn't reach further than you and F (which I doubt because I will come over there to have some!) it would have already been worth it :)
Hi Glamah16! Thanks! Hope you like it! :)
Hi Giff! Thank you! And thanks for all the info on photo editing! I don't know how to use Photoshop though! But I am determined to learn! :)
Hi Happy Jack! The marinating step I got from my mum-in-law :) Another adobo tip if you are married – add/incorporate a step/tip/ingredient from your MIL into your recipe ;) Works every time! Adobo in a slow cooker? You can be sure that if I owned a slow cooker I would be making adobo in it! I do my own version of slow-cooked adobo in a cast iron cocotte placed in a low oven for several hours :)
Hi Manggy! I wish you could too! I want cool photos with words like yours and Bee's and Meeta's and Fanny's! Aside from the rest of the stuff I'm told Photoshop can do! Dude, if you have Kapampangan relatives you best be a-scouring for recipes – their food is awesome!
Hi Bee! Yikes! So sorry! I've corrected it now! I hope Raya means something good! :) Thanks again so much for asking me!!! I loved writing about adobo, not just because it's another chance to shed light on Filipino food, but also because it is part of a personal journey for me in learning my own cuisine! - 10:10 AM
- MikeMina said...
Your adobo looks really yummy and fit for a feast! I want it!!!
RAYA is indeed a Malay word which means "celebration" - so, you have all the reasons to celebrate for such a wonderful article about our own cuisine!
I have to try your recipe one of these days :-) - 2:26 PM

Great photos!!
Living in San Francisco, Filipino food has yet to become mainstream.
Palencia is one of the few in San Francisco. I love fresh lumpi and le chon (sp?) with mama sita sauce.
Keep writing.
They are very few Filipino food bloggers out there!!
btw, do you shot with SLR? - 5:14 PM

I cooked my first adobo when I left for grad school in the US. =)
- Jescel said...
great job... i love your article, and the variations.. thanks for sharing.
- Erin said...
That looks incredible. I've never made adobo, but I think that is about to change. Great write up!
- Marvin said...
Awesome article and pictures joey! Isn't it so much fun to experiment with all the different types of adobos? I hope you post more about your experiments.
- mtan said...
Congratulations Joey - guest spot on Rasa Malaysia and it also gets included in Tastespotting. Double score!
to Happy Jack, I highly recommend the slow cooker, for adobo and any kind of stew-y dish. All the flavors concentrate after low and slow cooking, plus you can throw in any tough cut of pork and it'll come out sooooo tender.
Joey, let's have that adobo potluck! - 9:28 AM
- Jude said...
Nice work! I loved reading about it :)
- Jen Tan said...
hey joey! your adobo looks great...I'll mosey on to RM to check it out....just had adobo yesterday...my sis can really cook up a good one too =) (the semi-dry and dark kind adobo...sooo yummy with rice!!! )
- ChichaJo said...
Hi Mike! Thank you! Big compliment from you who are an expert in Filipino food :) So nice to know my typo was at least a good one :) I love to talk about our food...it rocks and it's time everyone else knows ;)
Hi Rayfil! Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment! Fresh lumpia and lechon are also favourite of mine :) Thank you for your encouragement! Yes, I use a D-SLR :)
Hi Wysgal! Heehee :) I cooked my first adobo when I got married! We are a pair of clichés!!!
Hi Jescel! Thank you :)
Hi Erin! Thanks! It's our national dish practically :)
Hi Marvin! Thanks!!! Yes, it is! Adobo is the best for experiments! Once I firm up other recipes will post them :)
Hi M! Yes, let's! So many potluck ideas...heehee :) I SO need to get a slow cooker!
Thanks Jude!
Hi Jen! Your sis' adobo sounds fantastic! - 12:06 AM
- Helen said...
You know, I don't think I've ever eaten Adobo! Looking at the picture I think I might be in love and I haven't even tasted it! I will definitely be trying your recipe, it looks so simple and so delicious and comforting.
- Tartelette said...
Beautiful Joey! That picture is stunning!
- nayna said...

You are so funny, Joey! I am dorkily impressed by the fancy "worded up" photo of your adobo too! :-) But, I'm REALLY impressed by the adobo itself...it looks amazing. :-)
- ChichaJo said...
Hi Helen! I hope you like it! It is a very simple dish and something eaten in practically all Filipino homes across the globe :)
Hi Helene! Thank you! :)
Hi Nayna! That's my favourite part too :) Wow...you sure know how to give a compliment!!! Thank you (((blush)))!!! :)
Hi Belinda! Heehee ;) My national dish thanks you! :) It is simple and delicious! - 4:59 PM
