2/7/14 Charlie Threatens Ashton
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Friday, February 7, 2014
For OPRAH WINFREY, the best thing about being 60 is that she can finally CHILL. She says, quote, "You are through with the bull[crap] . . . You are chilled, and you have nothing to prove, and you can sit above that perch with a sense of knowing that you are who you want to be, inside and out, and it's good. Life is good."
This week, ASHTON KUTCHER called out CHARLIE SHEEN for slamming the work he's doing on "Two and a Half Men". Now, Charlie is apologizing to Ashton . . . but he's also THREATENING him, saying that if Ashton ever calls him out again he'll "put him on a hospital food diet for a year."
In a "60 Minutes" interview from 1992, WOODY ALLEN showed a Valentine he received from MIA FARROW. It was a picture of Mia and her kids, with metal skewers and a steak knife stabbed through it. He also said she frequently threatened to kill him and cut out his eyes.
LEONARDO DICAPRIO has been in Hollywood for well over 20 years . . . but he's never once done drugs. He says, quote, "Never done it. That's because I saw this stuff literally every day [in my neighborhood] when I was three or four years old. So Hollywood was a walk in the park for me."
This week, SELENA GOMEZ'S rep confirmed that Selena spent two weeks in rehab last month . . . but said it was NOT for substance abuse. Now, TMZ is claiming it was a six-week program . . . but that Selena BAILED after two weeks, against the advice of "medical professionals." They claim she was there because she has issues with alcohol, pot and the prescription drug Ambien.
1/6/14 Selena Gomez Rehab

MILEY CYRUS has finally gone totally topless. If the image that popped up on the web yesterday is legit . . . and it seems to be. It's a black-and-white outtake from her recent "W" magazine shoot, and she's lying on a bed with her breasts fully exposed.
When DAVID BECKHAM runs around in his skivvies, we all win. Am I right, ladies? Well, maybe not. Because David is being accused of STUFFING HIS DRAWERS in that H&M underwear ad he did for the Super Bowl. A supposed "stylist" who worked on the commercial says, quote, "David is definitely 'enhanced' for [the ad]. In order to make the bulge look so pronounced in the photos, his underwear has to be carefully stuffed and padded to create the illusion." But Beckham's rep says, quote, "It's all natural."
Yet another former child star has hit a rough patch. SELENA GOMEZ spent two weeks in rehab last month. Her rep says she went voluntarily, but "not for substance abuse." There's no word what she DID go for . . . but there's talk that JUSTIN BIEBER was a bad influence, and that she was, quote, "partying very hard" with alcohol and prescription drugs.
A new report claims that JUSTIN BIEBER was, quote, "extremely abusive" to the crew of a private plane on Friday . . . just ONE DAY before he was supposedly looking for a pool in New York City to have himself baptized in. This time, it isn't tabloid silliness . . . there's an actual POLICE REPORT. It says the captain warned Justin and his friends on "several occasions to stop smoking marijuana." Apparently, it got so bad that the pilots had to wear OXYGEN MASKS to avoid getting high off the smoke in the air. The captain ALSO had to warn Justin's group to, quote, "stop their harassing behavior toward the flight attendant." The woman told authorities that Justin and his father were, quote, "extremely abusive verbally." Yup, Justin's cool dad Jeremy Bieber was one of the partiers on the plane. To be clear, the "abuse" was not physical or sexual in nature, and the crew is not pressing charges against Justin. However, the flight attendant says she will NEVER work another flight with Justin and / or his dad.
2/5/14 Paul Walker's Wishes
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Wednesday, February 5, 2014
A "source" tells Radar Online that JUSTIN BIEBER bragged to a friend about being SELENA GOMEZ'S "FIRST." Justin supposedly said, quote, "I knew she was in love with me when she gave me her virginity." The friend says it happened in the summer of 2011, when Justin and Selena made plans to go to Palm Springs SPECIFICALLY to do the nasty. The friend adds, quote, "The purpose of the trip was 100% because Selena finally said 'yes' to having sex with him. They agreed [to do it] because they both said they were in love."
The "New York Post" says JUSTIN BIEBER was looking for a place in Manhattan with a private pool on Saturday . . . because he wanted to get BAPTIZED. A source says, quote, "Justin is serious about his Christian faith, and after recent events, he needed to take a pause." Another source adds, quote, "Justin and his team [wanted to] conduct a baptism for him, a cleansing ritual, with the Hillsong Church, but they couldn't find a place in time."
New York City police arrested four people as part of their investigation into the overdose of PHILIP SEYMOUR HOFFMAN. They'd gotten a warrant to search three apartments in a building in New York's Chinatown. Sources say they were tipped off by someone who bought heroin from the same dealer Hoffman did.
PAUL WALKER left his entire $25 million estate to his 15-year-old daughter Meadow. But some of the other conditions of his will might cause problems among those he left behind. Meadow lived with her mother, Rebecca Soteros, for the first 13 years of her life. She'd been living with Paul since 2011, but went back with Rebecca after Paul died. But Paul's will states that he wants his own mother to be Meadow's guardian, and he wants his father to control the estate. It's not clear if Rebecca is cool with this.
1/4/13 Latest on Philip Seymour Hoffman
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Tuesday, February 4, 2014
There may have been as many as 50 to 70 bags of heroin in PHILIP SEYMOUR HOFFMAN'S apartment when he died Sunday, as well as 20 used hypodermic needles, a charred spoon and prescription meds. A source says he was also hooked on Oxycontin. Police think there might be video of him buying drugs from two men on Saturday night.
The Super Bowl averaged 111.5 million viewers . . . once again setting a new, all-time TV ratings record. The previous record was 111.3 million, which Super Bowl 46 set in 2012. BRUNO MARS also scored a record high for Super Bowl halftime shows, with an average of 115.3 million viewers.
A plastic surgeon in Santa Monica says the most sought-after celebrity look is JENNIFER ANISTON for women and HUGH JACKMAN for men. Also, "in demand" body parts include: BEYONCÉ'S butt, KATY PERRY'S skin and ROBERT PATTINSON'S jawline.
If you think life is even the slightest bit fair, allow me to insert a pin into your bright pink balloon. On Sunday night, PARIS HILTON had a DJ gig at a Super Bowl after-party in Atlantic City. The job paid $100,000. After it was over, she hit a blackjack table . . . where she won another $50,000. And she posted a picture of her winnings, just to TAUNT YOU.
There might be video of JUSTIN BIEBER and his friends fooling around with dancers at a strip club in Australia when he was on tour there last year. It's nothing TOO scandalous. Supposedly, surveillance video caught Justin spanking some butts and pulling off girls' panties with his teeth. It's being shopped to various media outlets.
2/3/14 Philip Seymour Hoffman Dead
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Monday, February 3, 2014
PHILIP SEYMOUR HOFFMAN was found dead in his Manhattan apartment yesterday. He was 46 years old. There's no official word on the cause of death, but it was pretty obviously a heroin overdose. He was supposed to pick up his kids at 9:00 A.M. but he never showed. So a friend went to check on him at around 11:30, and found his body in the bathroom. Police sources say he had a needle in his arm, and heroin packets next to him. Hoffman was a recovering addict who had a relapse recently, and checked himself into rehab back in May after admitting to SNORTING heroin. Before his relapse, he had been clean for more than 20 years.
Dylan Farrow, the adopted daughter of WOODY ALLEN and MIA FARROW, says Woody DID sexually molest her, including one time when she was seven. She also called out Hollywood for continuing to support him.
WOODY ALLEN'S people are denying the abuse allegations of Woody's adopted daughter Dylan Farrow. They claim Woody's ex, MIA FARROW, made the whole thing up. And Woody's publicist says Woody will be, quote, "responding very soon."
Justin Bieber might have been flying a little too high on Friday afternoon -- when New Jersey airport officials stopped his private jet to investigate what was described as "a strong pot odor." The Bieb was detained by federal authorities after he landed on his way to the Super Bowl. Drug-sniffing dogs flipped out when called to the jet, where they focused on two pieces of luggage -- but customs officials found no weed in the bags.

At a Glance
Why Get Tested?
To screen for, diagnose, and monitor a range of conditions
When to Get Tested?
As part of a routine metabolic panel; when you have symptoms of a disorder, or known presence of one, affecting your kidneys, bones, thyroid, parathyroid, or nerves or when symptoms of significantly increased or decreased calcium concentrations are present; when someone is critically ill, to monitor ionized calcium levels; when someone has certain types cancer; when someone is being treated for abnormal calcium levels, to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment
Sample Required?
A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm; sometimes a random or a timed urine collection such as a 24-hour urine sample
Test Preparation Needed?
The Test Sample
What is being tested?
Calcium is the most abundant and one of the most important minerals in the body. It is essential for cell signaling and the proper functioning of muscles, nerves, and the heart. Calcium is needed for blood clotting and is crucial for the formation, density, and maintenance of bones. This test measures the amount of calcium in the blood or urine.
About 99% of calcium is found complexed in the bones, while the remaining 1% circulates in the blood. Calcium levels are tightly controlled; if there is too little absorbed or ingested, or if there is excess loss through the kidney or gut, calcium is taken from bone to maintain blood concentrations. Roughly half of the calcium in the blood is "free" and is metabolically active. The remaining half is "bound" to albumin, with a smaller amount complexed to anions, such as phosphate, and these bound and complexed forms are metabolically inactive.
There are two tests to measure blood calcium. The total calcium test measures both the free and bound forms. The ionized calcium test measures only the free, metabolically active form.
Some calcium is lost from the body every day, filtered from the blood by the kidneys and excreted into the urine. Measurement of the amount of calcium in the urine is used to determine how much calcium the kidneys are eliminating.
How is the sample collected for testing?
A blood sample is taken by needle from a vein in the arm. If a urine collection is required, a 24-hour urine sample or a timed collection of a shorter duration is obtained. Sometimes a random urine collection may be used, although a timed collection is preferred.
NOTE: If undergoing medical tests makes you or someone you care for anxious, embarrassed, or even difficult to manage, you might consider reading one or more of the following articles: Coping with Test Pain, Discomfort, and Anxiety, Tips on Blood Testing, Tips to Help Children through Their Medical Tests, and Tips to Help the Elderly through Their Medical Tests.
Another article, Follow That Sample, provides a glimpse at the collection and processing of a blood sample and throat culture.
Is any test preparation needed to ensure the quality of the sample?
Current practices do not require fasting. You may be instructed to stop taking certain medications, such as lithium, antacids, diurectics, and vitamin D supplements, among others, to ensure the most accurate test results.

Common Questions
Ask a Laboratory Scientist
Form temporarily unavailable
Due to a dramatic increase in the number of questions submitted to the volunteer laboratory scientists who respond to our users, we have had to limit the number of questions that can be submitted each day. Unfortunately, we have reached that limit today and are unable to accept your inquiry now. We understand that your questions are vital to your health and peace of mind, and recommend instead that you speak with your doctor or another healthcare professional. We apologize for this inconvenience.
This was not an easy step for us to take, as the volunteers on the response team are dedicated to the work they do and are often inspired by the help they can provide. We are actively seeking to expand our capability so that we can again accept and answer all user questions. We will accept and respond to the same limited number of questions tomorrow, but expect to resume the service, 24/7, as soon as possible.

WeatherBug Lite Mac OS X Application Support
Below are answers to some common questions about the current version of the WeatherBug Lite Mac OS X application. If you do not see your question here, please fill out a Support Request Form or visit the WeatherBug Forums.
- I have downloaded and installed WeatherBug Lite, but it does not run. What happened?
If you have downloaded and installed WeatherBug Lite correctly, a window should appear asking you for your ZIP Code. If this window does not appear, then something in your system is keeping WeatherBug Lite from running correctly. If you are having this issue, please email email@example.com.
- WeatherBug Lite doesn't run, but I can't trash it either. The finder keeps telling me "Cannot delete because program it is still open." How do I get rid of it?
For some reason, WeatherBug is still running on your system without displaying an interface. If you are the administrator of the computer, or have administrator access, you can quit the WeatherBug Lite application by opening up the "Terminal" and typing
killall "WeatherBug Lite". If you do not have administrator access, follow the instructions for uninstall here. Be sure to move WeatherBug Lite to the trash (even though you can not delete it) and restart your machine. After restarting you should be able to empty the trash -- removing WeatherBug Lite from your system.

If you would like to receive more information about WeatherBug Mac updates, go to labs.weatherbug.com and signup for emails on the left side of the page.
- Where do I put my "PLUS" code?
WeatherBug Lite does not currently have a "PLUS" version. PLUS codes are for the Windows version of WeatherBug only.
- I have Mac OS 8.x or 9.x . Is there a version of WeatherBug for me?
We currently do not have plans for supporting Mac OS versions prior to Mac OS X 10.2.x.
- I don't have enough room in my system menu bar to display WeatherBug correctly. What can I do?
The only way to get more items to show up in the menu bar is to remove other items that are present. Try turning off other items in the menu bar until WeatherBug Lite shows up.

Updated at 2:37 p.m. June 26 to correct the times of the fundraiser at Chick-fil-A
The distance between
The team of 21 girls has been invited to the 2014 Gator Bowl to take part in a five-day long experience that will include learning from experienced cheerleaders and dancers working with Worldstrides Heritage Performances, a company that works with students in music and dance programs. Worldstrides invited the squad because of their 4th place finish at the NCHSAA's state tournament. This is the first time a White Oak cheerleading squad has been invited to a bowl game.
"This is a once in a lifetime experience," said White Oak cheerleading co-coach Sara Last. "It's all they can think about."
This once in a lifetime experience, though, will cost the team $919 per cheerleader (which comes to $18,380), but the team has set their goal at an even $20,000 to cover traveling expenses. According to fellow White Oak Cheerleading coach, Kara Innerst, cheerleading is already comes with a large monetary commitment. The girls on her team pay $200 to attend a choreography camp held at the school, along with the cost of uniforms and hair ribbons; but Innerst believes it's worth it to instill Viking Pride at White Oak High.
"It gives students something to be a part of," said Innerst. "It gives them a family that supports them."
To raise money for the event, the White Oak Cheerleading Squad will hold various events around
The fundraising effort will begin at the Chick-fil-A on 1405
"They definitely have personality," said Last. "They're very sassy and upbeat."
The head of the parent committee for the team, Melissa Fitta, said the experience for the team will not only bring them closer to their $20,000 goal, but teach them a lesson in determination and teamwork.
"This will teach them they have to be dedicated … to accomplish their goals," said Fitta.
Last said the team is determined to meet their goal and she hopes the community is just as willing to assist them.
"I hope people come out, support us and find out what this means to the girls," said Last.
The White Oak High School Cheerleading squad has been invited to cheer at the Gator Bowl, their first bowl game. They will be hold various fundraisers to help with travel costs. Here is a list of upcoming events:
n At Chick-fil-A near Target on June 27, 20 percent of purchases made from 5 to 8 p.m. will go to the team so long as patrons bring in a flyer found on the team's fundraising Facebook page.
n June 29 and July 27, the squad will hold a car wash at Misty's Hair Salon on
n July 25 from to , the squad will assist servers at Golden Corral on
n Aug. 24 starting at , the squad will hold the "Gator Bowl Bash" at the White Oak High School gym. There will be a reverse raffle where the winner can win a $10,000 dollars by purchasing a $100 ticket. There will be a buffet and babysitting for donation by the cheerleaders (for children ages 2-up). The cheerleaders will teach the children a cheer that they will perform at the end of the night.

ELON — Looking back, with the Southern Conference Tournament beginning in full today on its home turf, the evolution of the Elon University men's tennis team can be measured by its top-seeded arrival at this moment.
The frustratingly narrow losses that have become rewarding victories.
The struggles with youth that have become steps forward in identity and demeanor.
The growing pains that have become a regular-season championship in the league.
"We've had so many bumps in the road," sophomore Jordan Kaufman said. "I feel like all the downs that we've been through, I think we've learned and been able to put that behind us and build off that.
"This is definitely a good feeling. But it's definitely something we're not satisfied with. We want to keep it going."
For Elon (15-7), that means navigating the tournament's three-matches-in-three-days proposition, starting with this morning's assignment against eighth-seeded Furman (9-13), and reaching the NCAA regionals for the first time since 2007.
The Phoenix is led by Cameron Silverman, the league's newly crowned Player of the Year, and coach Michael Leonard, an Elon alum, who has guided the program to its fourth Southern Conference regular-season title in eight years.
Elon's 10-player roster contains one senior (Carlos Arboleda), one junior (Silverman), six sophomores (Stefan Fortmann, Christopher Geaslen, Brian Kowalski, Dan Sablik, Kaufman and Madrid) and two freshmen (Robert Lindgren and Ismael Sanchez Delfin).
A year ago, most of this group experienced a sometimes difficult acclimatization process to college tennis, a foundation laid by adversity.
For example, Juan Madrid joined the team from Spain and three days later played his first match for the Phoenix.
"I didn't know anything in America," Madrid said. "It was crazy."
Elon lost 15 of its 24 matches during the 2012 season. The last five losses came by oh-so-close margins of 4-3 final scores.
"Over and over and over," Leonard said of those slim defeats. "When you lose matches like that, either you're going to learn from it, it's going to motivate you, it's going to make you hungry and you want that other taste, of victory. Or you hope it doesn't do the other thing, which is make you lack confidence.
"And for us, it motivated us. We took that as a challenge for what we wanted to do this year."
This season has been marked by course-turning moments.
Leonard said Elon was grasping at its potential in early February, when the Phoenix had match point at North Carolina State, before that opportunity ended as an encouraging loss.
But then, a month later, Elon dropped a match at home against USC Upstate. It was a jarring loss. The next day, a Sunday, the Phoenix cleared the air with two team meetings.
"We really talked about what we wanted to be and what we wanted to see out of ourselves as a team," Kaufman said. "I think those meetings showed how we wanted to carry ourselves for the rest of the season. It was very productive. We really needed that. And then from that point, we started playing the way we wanted to."
Elon's answer was emphatic. An eight-match winning streak ensued, with Leonard increasingly demanding a businesslike approach and the Phoenix responding.
That run culminated with a pair of 5-2 victories at Chattanooga and Samford on back-to-back days. Madrid said Elon put toughness on display during that road trip, and certain thoughts started to crystallize.
"I think that was the point where we said, 'OK, we can do something big,' " Madrid said. "That weekend was a reflection point, like, 'Guys, we can do it. Why not.' "
Last Friday, Elon teammates gathered at Kaufman's place to follow two Southern Conference matches online. The Phoenix had clinched at least a share of the league's regular-season title earlier in the week. Losses by Samford and UNC Greensboro would deliver Elon, at 8-2 in the league, with the outright championship.
Both required upsets.
Both happened, with shorthanded Georgia Southern taking down Samford along with College of Charleston staging a rally in singles to defeat UNCG — while the crowd at Kaufman's swelled around the computer in size and joy.
"Everyone came on over," Kaufman said. "It was a beautiful day. We celebrated outside, just going crazy. We were all pumped up for each other. It was a great feeling, because we've worked so hard this season."
Now, Elon embarks on the league tournament in its own backyard, with the chance to make this special season even more memorable.
Silverman has returned to health after a stomach virus this month — he didn't eat for 72 hours — forced him to miss two matches (losses to Georgia Southern and UNCG) and retire in another.
The venues this weekend, Elon's Jimmy Powell Tennis Center and the Burlington Tennis Center, should offer familiar comforts.
"It's our place. It's our people. That's a plus for us," Madrid said.
"Our biggest thing with this team is to be professional," Leonard said. "So we talk about being ready and preparing the night before and doing all the little things that make you champions. If we're doing those things, then everything else takes care of itself."

Language Contact
Language Contact in Indonesia
Nearly 800 languages are spoken in Indonesia, in addition to Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia), the national language. The great majority of Indonesians are therefore proficient in at least two languages, their local home language and Indonesian. This makes Indonesia an ideal location in which to study language contact. [more]
Atlas of Pidgin and Creole Language Structures (APiCS)
APiCS (The atlas of pidgin and creole language structures) has gathered comparable synchronic data on the grammatical and lexical structures of a large number of pidgin and creole languages. It has been published in four volumes (September 2013). [more]
Morphological Borrowing
This project studies morphological borrowing, i.e. the transfer of grammatical morphemes (inflection, derivation, and function words) from one language to another through language contact. [more]
Re-evaluation of the Witotoan/Boran family/ies
In this project we examine the relationship between the Boran languages (Bora and Muinane) and the Witotoan languages (Witoto proper, Ocaina, Nonuya) spoken in the Northwest Amazon. [more]
Language Contact in Sri Lanka
This project investigates the interaction between the languages of Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka has, among all linguistic areas, the decisive advantage of being rather small with regard to the languages concerned (half a dozen or less) and being geographically clearly defined, viz.. by the Indian Ocean. [more]
The Kalahari Basin area: a 'Sprachbund' on the verge of extinction
The KBA project attempts to untangle some aspects of the complex linguistic and population history of the southern African groups speaking languages other than from the Bantu family. These are commonly subsumed under the unsubstantiated concept of a "Khoisan" family but might turn out to share certain traits because of convergence processes within a geographical area. The project will pursue a two-tiered approach, investigating southern Africa as a linguistic area from a broad perspective as well as offering fine-scaled studies of individual contact situations. The overall approach is a multidisciplinary one in involving linguists, molecular anthropologists and social anthropologists. [more]
Inheritance and contact in a language complex: the case of Taa varieties (Tuu family)
Taa, the only surviving member of the Tuu family (formerly "Southern Khoisan") with a substantial number of speakers, is a large cluster of dialects spoken by small bands of former hunter-gatherers (commonly referred to as "San") and stretching geographically from east-central Namibia from the Nossob River over the former Aminuis reserve into the Ghanzi and Kgalagadi Districts of Botswana up to a line Okwa-Tsetseng-Dutlwe-Werda. Mutual intelligibility usually exists between neighboring varieties, but differences between geographically remote dialects can amount to a linguistic distance found between languages. However, the dialectal diversity of Taa is still hardly documented. [more]
Documentation of N!aqriaxe with a focus on contact influence
The purpose of this project is to document the highly endangered language N!aqriaxe. It is spoken in the Kalahari region in southern Botswana in the Kweneng district. The 40 speakers of the language are still found in the villages of Motokwe, Khekhenye, Tswaane, Dutlwe and probably some others. Like other minority languages (especially those of Khoisan origin) in Botswana, and elsewhere in southern Africa, this language is in danger of becoming extinct; most N!aqriaxe-speakers are older than 50 years and do not pass their language on to the younger members of the community.

|Wildlife photography: what do I need? | Wildlife lens image quality overview | Image quality ranking | Lenses delivered overview
|DxOMark Score
|Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS USM
|Nikkor AF-S VR Zoom Nikkor 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 G IF ED
|Nikon AF Zoom Nikkor 70-300mm f/4-5.6 D ED
|Sigma 70-300mm F4-5.6 APO DG MACRO Nikon
|Sigma 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG OS Nikon
With a DxOMark Score of 18.6 on a full frame Canon EOS-1Ds Mk III, the $1,600 Canon EF70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS USM is the best performing full-frame telephoto zoom in our database, closely followed by the more affordably priced $600 Nikon AF-S Nikkor 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G IFED VR with a score of 17.1 when tested on a D3X. In third position is the direct predecessor to G-series Nikon lens that's ranked second in our scores. Unfortunately, it is no longer available to buy new although it can be picked up secondhand at around $150 (note this is a Japanese made ED version – a non ED version was also made).
At maximum aperture and set to 300mm, the Acutance map (above) reveals the Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6L is sharper across the image field than either Nikon model. In fact, the older AF-D-type Nikon lens is sharper at 300mm than the AF-S (G-type) version that replaced it. That's all fine and well, but most wildlife photographers won't be using full-frame bodies with full frame lenses, they want the intrinsic advantage of a narrower field of view that APS-C cropped cameras give.
Although APS-C cameras use the sweet spot of full frame lenses, the acutance is influenced by the sensor and is slightly lower for each model. When measured with an 18-Mpix EOS 7D, the acutance of the Canon L-series zoom is still ahead of the two Nikkor lenses when paired with either the 12-Mpix D300s, or 16.2Mpix D7000.
When we compare the Acutance maps for the two Sigma lenses on the Nikon D300s to the Canon EF 70-300mm f4-5.6L IS USM, tested on the Canon EOS 7D, the drop is quite apparent. However, the Sigma results can be improved slightly with the higher-resolution Canon EOS 7D, though not to the same level as the Canon optic. At this point, it's worth bearing in mind the price difference between these.
While we've no hesitation in recommending the L-series Canon as a long-term investment, the Sigma APO Macro can be picked up for around one 1/8th of the price at $200, while the DG OS version is dearer at around $360, because of the Optical Stabilization function. Both Sigma lenses appear to be a good value proposition, although the sharpness isn't that great at 300mm on either. One other lens that is intriging is the $200 Canon EF 75-300mm f/4.5.6 III USM. Like the Sigma APO Macro version, it lacks image stabilization but it has above average image quality for this type of lens.

Re: Nikkor AF-S 300mm f/4D IF-ED
Hi Bird201, I think a lot of people are looking for the kind of thorough review that DxOMark do for the Nikon 3000f4, the 300f4 plus TC-14E ii, and the Canon 400f5.6. ::) There is no substitute for these lenses in the keen amateur ("prosumer") bird photography market. It's widely acknowledged that the long tele-zooms are not sharp where needed (at the long end), as DxO's own results show - something people usually find out too late :'( The exceptions are usually too expensive (eg 200-400 f4). Even professionals use the Nikon 300f4 plus TC-14E ii combo and swear by it (eg: http://photographylife.com/reviews/nikon-300mm-f4d)
People often um-and-ah about whether to go Nikon 300f4+TC14 or Canon 400f5.6 (eg see: http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1067193/0).
The only review site I have found that allows a comparison of both on the same terms is photozone.de, where the 300f4+TC14 (and 300f4+TC17) results are included along with the 300f4 alone:
It would be a fantastic contribution if DxOMark could so an article comparing the Nikon 300f4, 300f4+TC14 and Canon 400f5.6 and asking what the best options are for amateur birders 8)

Minor corrections to list
Hi DxO,
Just some minor notes/suggestions regarding your "Other lenses that are not yet included in our tested database but should also be considered include" list:
The Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM and Canon EF 400mm f/5.6L USM are each listed twice.
Both the Nikon 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6D ED VR AF (listed but with no hyperlink) and the Nikon 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR AF-S (not listed) have been tested:
Maybe lenses already tested could be moved into the "Lenses that fall firmly into this particular category in our test database include" list.
Thanks guys, you do a fantastic job :)

DxO Mark for Nikon 300f4 (plus TC-14E) and Canon 400f5.6
Thanks DxO team for this great collection! I am a keen bird photographer, so it is highly relevant.
Two VERY important lenses are missing from a keen amateur/portable professional view. There are no DxO marks on the AF-S Nikon 300mm f/4 - almost always paired with a TC-14E ii by nature photographers - and for Canon users, the Canon 400mm f/5.6L.
Almost without exception the long telephoto zooms are not sharp at the long end (400-600mm) where amateur bird photographers are interested. The few exceptions are pricey (like the Nikon 80-400 f/4.5-5.6G) or out of reach of most amateurs (the Nikon 200-400 f/4). Some reviewers (eg Nasim Mansurov at Photography Life) even recommend the Nikon 300f4/TC-14E combination above the Nikon 80-400 f/4.5-5.6G.
I would dearly like to see you DxOMark the 300f/4 alone and in combination with the TC-14E ii - a popular combination seen as sharp and often used after amateurs who have given up on their third party telezooms reaching 500mm to 600mm after realising they are not sharp!
In anticipation...

Miss some...
Hey guys,
What is alway the thing with this tests, which is a lot of times lately.
It looks like you guys have already favorites and push the 'test' in a direction.
Why al these really old rather crappy Tamrons? I mis the best ones! The VC versions are a lot better then these old versions of 2000 and 2004! Even if the have stabalisation and sometimes it does not work well because of the tripod or fast shutters speed, keep in mind you can always switch them off...
Then i mis a really versatile lens, the Sigma 50-500 OS HSM if you guys talk about reach in the intro you really have to put this one in the test because it has an amzing reach.
Also consider testing some of the faster lenses with tele converter.
I understand thatbit is a lot more work but with this short list I think you don't give the whole thing an objective look for readers.

Re: Miss some...
Thanks for your comment.
HI Arend,
As you noticed it is a lot of work and we had to do some choices…
For this article we try to highlight some good value telephoto zoom.
In this article we reviewed a lot of high end telephoto prime (Canon and Sony) and we should publish some results of famous Nikon primes very soon.
Your remark about extender is very relevant but we won't have time to measure it for now.
I you want to have an idea about the influence of an extender on image quality, have a look on our last review about the Canon EF200-400mm f/2.8 1.4x.

Bonjour. La nouvelle mouture du zoom 80-400 de Nikon, vient de sortir. À un prix exorbitant ! Plus de deux fois le modèle précédent ! Dans le même style que votre comparaison 70-200 f4, 70-200 f2,8 Nikon et Canon, je serai extrêmement intéressé par une comparaison des deux versions du 80-400 Nikon (ancienne et nouvelle), avec le 100-400 Canon.
Merci d'avance. Je brûle d'impatience !

keep your money!
- weight make 2,8 impossible to use in wildlife without tripod!
- at 5,6, a 200 dollar lens is the same quality optically than a 1500 canon or nikon "pro" lense!!!!!
photographer, I successfully use a 200$ lens without stabilization:
- for "birding" speed is upper 1/500s
- in low ligth cndition
using a tripod is better than stabilsation.
prefer to use this money for the camera!!!
Added by loic | February 23, 2013
en français!
Enfin un comparatif!
J'ai toujours affirmé:
- soit il faut acheter un 2,8 avec le problème de le porter (3kg!!!!)
- soit IL N Y A AUCUNE DIFFERENCE DE QUALITE OPTIQUE ENTRE LES MODELES CHERS OU NON
Donc en photographie animalière ALLER AU MOINS CHER les marques nikon ou canon font beaucoup d'argent avec des optiques quasi identiques, canon prétend meme que son zoom est "pro"....
J'utilise une optique à 200$ je suis photographe et les résultats sont très bons, juste un peu de retouche pour le 300mm!
Les optiques à plus de 1000$ n'apportent rien sauf léger mieux pour l'AF quand à la stabilisation elle est suvent inutiles:
- en "birding" on est à plus de 1/500e
- en affut, le trépied!!!

Telephoto zoom lens for Nikon over 300mm
Your enquiry concerning zooms for wild life photos is highly welcome...but in your tests or future tests no 400mm, 600mm, 800mm Nikon...
Most amateur photographs are looking for wildlife zooms at a good second hand price: 1500 - 2500 euros
Ken Rockwell on his site suggest to use a 400mm AF I F2,8 and a TC 14 E teleconverter: this is the kind of equipment you should test for people who can't afford a brand new nikon lens...
There is a big potential market there, and also, a company like yours, could offer a test bench where we could get a test of a second-hand lens, at a fair price, so as to see if its worth buying it...
The potential sellers and buyers could then do the deal in total confidence, or publish in their selling advertisement the test you had done for them. (Cost of test should be around 100 to 150 euros)...

Re: Telephoto zoom lens for Nikon over 300mm
Thanks for your very relevant comment.
We made the choice to specifically focus in this comparison on telephoto-zooms with a maximum focal superior or equal to 300mm.
Fix focals of 300, 400, 600 or 800mm type, whatever their brands, are indeed well-indicated for wildlife photography. As we already have some long focals in our database, this kind of lenses will be tackled in further comparisons.
The lenses you suggested are very relevant and we are going to add them to our list. In this regard, we welcome any suggestions of yours concerning other lenses we might include in ours reviews.
Best regards,

Collections search
You can explore a catalogue of over 600,000 items in our collections here - pretty much everything in our databases in fact. There are items from aircraft down to shoes, photographs and art, weapons and toys, films, interviews and music, posters and letters, books from the library and records in the museum's own archives. Almost 90,000 of them have digitised images, sound or video that you can see and hear right here.
How to search
Use the search box above to get started and then narrow down your results by using the filters that will appear on the left, which change according to the results of your search. You can add lots of them together to make a very precise search. The "Media" filter is helpful for finding things you can look at, listen to or watch online, and the "Category" filter is a rough way of grouping our collections by the type of thing they are. Some filters can have many more options than we can show on screen, so it's a good idea to start with a tight enough search. But if you want to start with everything, you can.
Mostly if you add another filter the results will things that satisfy all of the conditions, but if you add two options from the same filter - for instance, two subject periods - we will look for things that are linked to either period (rather than both). Some of the filters only apply to particular areas of the collection so it's worth experimenting to see what works.
Collection-level records
In some parts of our collections, the records are often at group level. This is frequently the case for photographs and archives (letters etc.) although often there will be items in these groups that also have their own record. Both the "collection" and the items within that collection could be returned by a search. When you look at a record for a collection (e.g. here), it will tell you a bit about it and link to a listing, which is also linked from the individual items. You can filter the listing just like search results - helpful if it has 5000 photos in it!

In July, 2009, the Second Judicial District implemented Early Case Management.
The fair and efficient administration of justice requires that all cases in family court receive timely attention. This requires the judicial system to handle cases expeditiously and with consistency, fairness and sound decisions. The court manages the process and disposition of the cases before it. The Early Case Management (ECM) approach that was implemented in July, 2009, uses aggressive case management timing by establishing judicial intervention on cases within three to four weeks of filing. The initial meeting with the judicial officer is called an Initial Case Management Conference (ICMC). The judicial officer's involvement soon after the filing encourages the parties and their attorneys (if represented) to focus on resolving and narrowing the contested issues that are barriers to settlement.
The intervention of the judicial officer early in the process is a key component to engaging the parties in communication that will help them reach a resolution.
The purpose of the ICMC is to:
Establish the Court's control of the progress of the case; Provide early intervention by the Court; Offer Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) processes; Establish discovery limitations and deadlines; Discuss settlement progress and opportunities for settlement; and, Assign a date for the future conferences, if needed.
Within 30 days of initial filing the court schedules the parties for what is called an Initial Case Management Conference (ICMC). Parties will be sent a ICMC Data Sheet. This form needs to be filled out and returned to the court prior to the scheduled date. This hearing is mandatory. If you are represented by an attorney, your attorney needs to be present. At the ICMC, all involved parties will meet with the judicial officer. Here, the judicial officer will talk with you about what the issues and concerns impeding or stopping you from coming to an agreement. The judicial officer will discuss with you your various options which will allow your case to continue through the court process with little or no delay.
Early Neutral Evaluation (ENE) strives to move families through court efficiently and inexpensively by working with them early on to reach agreements that will foster the best interests of their families. ENE helps parties focus on the critical issues they face in a confidential, non-confrontational, and settlement-oriented alternative dispute resolution program.
In ENE, parties and their attorneys attend an ENE session with experienced evaluator(s). Each side presents its view. The evaluator(s) discuss the case alone and then share their perspective on the merits of each position. Evaluator(s) identify the key issues and predict how the case is most likely to conclude. The parties are always able to confer with their attorneys and discuss settlement. Sometimes additional meetings are scheduled.
Issues related to custody or parenting time take part in Social ENE. In those cases a two person male/female team of evaluators will work on the case. SENE Provider List If the issues relate to financial issues, then a Financial ENE, with a single evaluator, is used. FENE Provider List In either type of ENE, evaluators are highly experienced professionals who have also been formally trained to help resolve cases in the ENE program.
Over half of the cases settle during the first session and over three-fourths reach at least some agreement. Absent full resolution, the team advises the assigned judge about areas of agreement, additional needed services and how to focus future assistance on the most relevant issues.
The parties pay for the costs of ENE according to a Financial or Social Sliding Fee Schedule. Most who participate in ENE will save a considerable amount of time and money versus contentious litigation in a traditional court setting. ENE is, on average, fully concluded within 90 days. A full determination in a traditional court setting can easily take more than a full year's time.
Listed below are forms that are designed to assist you in becoming more familiar with ECM in Ramsey County. The Initial Case Conference Data Sheet is a form that must be completed, submitted to the court and served at least three (3) business days before your scheduled Initial Case Management Conference. This information is for use at the ICMC only and is not evidence for purposes of a trial. The other forms contain more detailed information about ENE and its' costs.
Attorneys: ICMC data sheets should be submitted to the assigned judicial officer by email to the email address boxes that have been set up for each judicial unit. This is the ONLY exception to the mandate that pleadings be filed electronically. eFiling Business Process

Questions & Answers
Low Price Guarantee
One thousand is an empirical number that forms the boundary between boy and man. The displacement threshold between expert and novice. One thousand has always been the goal.
The finest leathers, textiles, & armor have gone into every item in the ICON 1000 collection. Every detail has been critiqued and examined. Every style has endured countless miles of testing and refinement.
The end result is the finest collection of motorcycle riding apparel Icon's ever created.
They sincerely hope you will enjoy wearing the ICON 1000 gear as much as they've enjoyed making it.
El Bajo - literally translated it means'The Short One.'Short perhaps in overall height, but never in performance or steez.
Built on the same Goodyear™ welt bottom unit as its five-buckle Elsinore brother, El Bajo provides all the OG moto-presence but in a reduced two-buckle silhouette.
Metal post fasteners, heavy top-grain leather chassis, and reinforced toe box and heel make for a serious piece of riding footwear. El Bajo, always up to the challenge.
The Icon 1000 line is one of my favorite lines of
motorcycle gear style
wise. Icon pulls from vintage offroad styling and applies it to high end apparel
for the street. The El Bajo is the two buckled little brother to the popular
Elsinore boot, and definitely has that vintage dirt feel.
The uppers are made of heavy top grain leather that's available in two colorways,
this oiled brown leather, and an all-black version. The fit is pretty standard
American, so they are accurate to a Brannock lengthwise, with a good amount of
room widthwise. They have a twin cast metal buckle set up on the medial side of
the boot, but they're just for looks. The cover flap is stitched across the
foot, so if you set the buckles to a looser setting, a gap is created between
the cover flap and the upper, so these buckles are obviously not an adjustment
feature. This is definitely not a deal breaker, though, because the boots are
nice and roomy in the instep, so the boots don't really need any adjustment.
And, these buckles are part of what make these boots so cool looking. The actual
closure system is on the medial side of the boot in the form of this YKK
zippered side entry.
If you unzip the closure, you will see the floating medial side ankle armor, and
the water resistant gaiter. You can also see the removable insole. In addition
to ankle armor, the El Bajos also feature a heavily reinforced toebox, with
panel reinforcement on the outside of the foot, and a heat pressed leather
shifter pad. If you look on the back of the boot, you can see the same branded
heel plate that comes on the Elsinore boots. This plate is designed to absorb
shock and promote sliding in a crash instead of tumbling. Also on the back is
this padded rib area and a leather pull tab.
Lastly we have the Goodyear welted sole construction. Goodyear welted soles
benefit from added water repelling qualities at the seam, and the ability to be
replaced when worn. They have a medium tread, and are a light tan color on the
oiled brown colorway, which is a really popular color combination on men's boots
right now, whether they're motorcycle specific or not.
All in all, these Icon El Bajo
motorcycle riding boots from Icon are an excellent option for riders on all
types of bikes, looking for a short height boot with styling cues pulled from
the vintage MX world.
