Everett girls beat Marysville Pilchuck 60-52
Three Everett players -- who were suspended earlier in the season for breaking the school's code of conduct -- returned as the Seagulls closed out their regular season with a 60-52 Wesco 3A North victory over Marysville Pilchuck.
"I felt good for the girls being back," said Everett head coach John Low. "Happy that they got the opportunity to go out and play. We could get back to what we wanted to do and go into the postseason with a win."
The players on the Everett girls' team were suspended during the first week of January for violating the Everett Public School's Code of Conduct, which restricted them from athletic competitions for 42 calendar days.
Low, who gets another athlete back next week due to some issues with paperwork, said it was good to have the players back because it gave significant depth to the Seagulls' bench.
"We were deeper and we could do more," Low said. "It was easier to play pressure defense and run the floor than when we were playing with seven girls. ? I told the girls to keep going like you were without the (suspended) girls."
Everett got off to a bit of a slow start, and trailed Marysville Pilchuck 22-18 at halftime. But the Seagulls' offense flourished in the third quarter, outscoring the Tomahawks 26-11.
Low said he spent halftime trying to calm his players down, and get them to get back to their style of play: aggressive defense.
"We just talked about the jitters," Low said. "I said, 'Let's just go out and play how we're going to play.'"
Everett guard Sidney Rielly had 18 of her 19 points in the Seagulls' third-quarter run. Two and a half minutes into the quarter, Rielly tied the score at 25 with a layup. Less than 25 seconds later, her 3-pointer gave the Seagulls their first lead since the first quarter.
"She's a dynamic scorer. She's one of the top scorers in Wesco," Low said. "Whenever she starts (shooting well) from the outside she's hard to stop."
Kiki Harper also had a strong showing for Everett (6-7 league, 10-10 overall). The senior guard notched a double-double with 13 points and 12 rebounds, leaving a strong impression on Marysville Pilchuck head coach Julie Martin.
"Kiki works so hard," Martin said. "I love to watch her scrap and hustle. She's super fun to watch, but not much fun to coach against."
Both Everett and Marysville Pilchuck (4-9, 6-13) already had clinched berths in next week's 3A district tournament. The Seagulls -- who are looking for their first victory in the district tournament in two years -- are the No. 3 team from the North after Wesco champion Stanwood and Ferndale from the 1A/2A/3A Northwest conference. They will go up against the South No. 2 seed (either Shorewood or Meadowdale).
As the North's fourth seed, the Tomahawks will play South champion Glacier Peak.
"I'm really excited about what my girls are going to bring for districts," Martin said. "I'm pretty excited for Tuesday. We just have to flush this."
Three juniors led Marysville Pilchuck in its final game of the regular season. Jordan Bengen had a double-double with 18 points and 12 rebounds, Jenika Anglim scored 16 points, grabbed six rebounds and had three steals and Charlee Pilon added 13 points and five rebounds.
"Jordan didn't get a lot of bench time, she was on the floor a lot," Martin said. "She went out and scrapped. Charlee hit some clutch shots. We had lots of girls contribute."
Martin was involved in a big point in the game when she was whistled for a technical foul -- the second one she remembers in her career -- in the third quarter. The Marysville Pilchuck bench had received a prior warning from the referees that Martin had not heard, and then when a Tomahawk player was whistled for travelling someone on the bench questioned the call a bit too loudly and the Marysville Pilchuck bench was issued a technical foul.
The Tomahawks' coach was as confused as anyone after the call and after the game was still trying to figure out what happened, while going out of her way to compliment high school referees.
"I just yell at my girls and try to encourage them," Martin said. "I don't know if (the referees) think I'm yelling at them. I don't want to put the referees down at all. They do a great job."
The play resulted in two free throws for Everett -- which Rielly made -- as well as possession of the ball, which resulted in a Rielly layup as the Seagulls began to pull away.

Pat Lambie kicked 21 points as the Sharks beat the Crusaders in Durban.
The Sharks won 21-17 after trailing 11-9 at the break and had Lambie's boot to thank for victory in a titanic struggle.
Lambie kicked seven from seven but the result could – and possibly should – have been different had the Crusaders flyhalf Tyler Bleyendaal not missed with three penalties and one conversion.
The Sharks started strongly and were impressive in the opening 10 minutes. The Crusaders then settled, found some fluency and with ball in hand looked like they were going through practise drills. They were outstanding, accurate and deserved more than the solitary first half try.
Credit to the Sharks for maintaining their defensive composure and for backing their defensive system.
It provided the confidence for an improved second half in which the Sharks played more direct through hooker Kyle Cooper, lock Piet-Stef du Toit and Marcel Coetzee, who was the best of an impressive forward unit.
With the Sharks making inroads close to the ruck, the Crusaders were forced to commit more to the breakdown and with the breakdown interpretation a lottery the Sharks benefited from several ruck infringements.
Lambie, having not offered much in attack, was brilliant in his goal kicking.
The Sharks backs never threatened and their alignment was always too deep but they had the physicality up front, especially in the second half, to keep the Crusaders pinned in their half.
The Crusaders had chances to win the game when trailing 18-17, but Bleyendaal missed twice within three minutes.
The Sharks, having lost to the Brumbies at home, couldn't afford a second home defeat against a side expected to be among the play-off finalists, and no matter how tight the win it was imperative the Sharks won.
And win they did, much to my delight, given I had called them to get past the Crusaders this weekend.
I said the match would be huge – and it was.

OXFORD, Ohio – The Miami University women's basketball team put forth a great effort against Mid-American Conference leading Bowling Green Wednesday afternoon, but the Falcons pulled away late for a 73-56 victory. The RedHawks fall to 7-21 overall and 3-14 in the MAC. BGSU improves to 26-3 overall and 16-1 in the MAC.
The defense kept the Falcons, who are receiving votes in both the AP and USA Today Top 25 polls, off balance all afternoon. Miami held Bowling Green to 35.6 percent (21-for-59) shooting for the game and 27.0 percent (10-for-37) from behind the arc.
Senior guard Hannah Robertson had another strong game for the RedHawks, leading the way with 19 points. She was 9-for-14 from the field, and also recorded six rebounds, two blocks, one assist and one steal in 32 minutes of action. That was despite being in foul trouble for the majority of the second half.
It was a slow start for both teams as neither team could score for the first two minutes. Junior guard Courtney Larson broke the ice, draining a three-pointer from the right wing. Miami kept the Falcons without a field goal until the 14:20 mark, when a layup by Alexis Rogers cut the RedHawk lead to 4-3.
Miami continued to hold the Bowling Green offense at bay, as jumpers by freshman guard Jillian Spurlock and sophomore forward Jessica Rupright were part of an 8-0 run that gave the 'Hawks a 12-3 lead with 11:08 left in the half. Layups by senior forward Erica Almady and Hannah Robertson gave MU a 16-8 advantage at the 8:57 mark.
The Falcons finally were able to get their offense on track as an 8-0 run tied the score at 16 with 6:25 left. Miami fought back as a pair of jumpers from Hannah Robertson put it back in front by four. Freshman forward Nicole Anderson and Rupright each hit layups to give the 'Hawks a 24-22 lead, but Bowling Green closed the half on an 8-0 run to take a 30-24 lead into the break.
Both team shot 9-for-32 (28.1 percent) for the first half. The Falcons were 5-for-21 (23.8 percent) from behind the arc, while Miami was 1-for-13 (7.7 percent). Hannah Robertson led the RedHawks with six points, while Miami held a 26-20 rebounding advantage for the period.
Bowling Green pushed the advantage to nine points at 38-29 early in the second half. A three-pointer from sophomore forward Hannah McCue, followed by a jumper from Hannah Robertson cut the deficit to four at 38-34 with 15:54 to go. While Rupright made some athletic moves down low to get a pair of layups, the Falcons went on a 16-7 run to build a 54-41 advantage at the 8:24 mark.
A three-pointer from junior guard Kindsay Brandt, followed by a free throw from Brandt a minute later made it a nine point game at 54-45 with 5:57 to go. BGSU made some free throws to push the lead back to 14. Hannah Robertson drained a three-pointer at the 3:23 mark to make it 61-50, but Miami was unable to get any closer as the Falcons finished off the 73-56 win.
Miami shot much better in the second half, finishing 13-for-32 (40.6 percent). In addition to Hannah Robertson's 19 points, Rupright finished with eight, while Brandt had six points and five rebounds. Anderson and McCue led the way with eight rebounds apiece for the RedHawks, who outrebounded Bowling Green, 47-35, for the game. Miami finished with 19 offensive boards.
The RedHawks complete the regular season on Saturday when they host Ohio for the Battle of the Bricks at 2:30 p.m. It is part of a doubleheader that will see the men's basketball team also take on the Bobcats at noon. It is also Senior Day for Miami, and there will be a pregame ceremony honoring Almady, Kristin Judson, Hannah Robertson, Haley Robertson and Kelsey Simon for all their accomplishments the past four years.

JON CARDINELLI says Juan de Jongh has completed his Super Rugby apprenticeship and is ready to fill the void left by Jaque Fourie.
Remember Juan de Jongh? He impressed as a 21-year-old in his debut Currie Cup, so much so that he was selected for the subsequent Springbok tour to Europe. He helped the Stormers to their first ever Super Rugby final in 2010, and made his Test debut against Wales a month later.
While De Jongh looked destined for great things he never let the plaudits go to his head. He accepted that Jean de Villiers (back from a season with Irish club Munster) would partner Jaque Fourie in the 2011 Super Rugby competition, a reunion that ultimately relegated the younger player to the bench. He continued to work and wait for an opportunity, which eventually arrived when Fourie announced his move to Japan.
A lot was said about Fourie's decision to leave the franchise, as it left the Stormers without one of their most pivotal players. Much was written in 2011 about the loss of Johann Sadie, an incredible prospect who moved to the Bulls because his path was blocked by the likes of De Villiers, Fourie and De Jongh. Most recently, it was said that Bryan Habana had the experience and skills to offset the loss of Fourie, while the talented WP duo of JP du Plessis and Michael van der Spuy would also come into their own as 13s for the Cape franchise.
Why is it that there's been so much excitement around every prospective midfielder in the Cape bar De Jongh? If anything, the 2012 season should be a massive one for the outside centre with the aggressive tackling style and deceptive sidestep.
With Fourie no longer in the mix, De Jongh will enjoy an extended run at No 13, a crucial position in the Stormers' attacking and defensive system. He will play the big games alongside De Villiers, and providing the pair enjoys success at Super Rugby level, they should continue that partnership into the Test season.
Stormers coach Allister Coetzee selected Habana at outside centre last week, explaining the move as one that would have long-term benefits for the team. Coetzee said that Habana would shift from wing to centre in the event of injury, as was the case when the Cape franchise played the Kings in Port Elizabeth. Habana was picked at No 13 because De Jongh had sustained a jaw injury in an earlier warm-up game against the Lions.
At this stage, De Jongh is still expected to start against the Hurricanes in the Stormers' first game of the season. As Coetzee has clarified, De Jongh is the first-choice outside centre in the squad while Habana's move to the midfield is a work in progress.
Habana may have started his career in the centres, but it was on the wing that he excelled for the Bulls and the Boks. One of his worst performances in a green and gold jersey was at outside centre, and after that forgettable performance against Ireland in 2006 he was never played in midfield again.
The Sharks are also currently trialing JP Pietersen, Habana's wing partner at the Boks, at No 13 in their warm-up matches. While there may be merit in boosting the depth at the respective franchises, it's madness to talk about Habana or Pietersen as prospective Test centres when there are already existing centre options. Yes, De Jongh and a player like Sadie will need to show consistency in the coming tournament, but Habana and Pietersen aren't even in the midfield pecking order just yet.
De Jongh is only 23, but has experienced two Super Rugby tournaments and a World Cup. He's grown into a fine player and yet there could be more to come.
If he is handed an extended opportunity at Super Rugby level and allowed to mature alongside De Villiers, he may eventually reach a point where he can challenge the likes of Fourie for the mantle of best 13 on the planet. He's always been tipped as something special, and with Fourie no longer standing in his way, he may finally realise his full potential.

Theme parksFun for the whole family!
Québec has reserved a generous helping of pure, unabated fun for families looking to combine education with entertainment. Theme parks in every region of the province present imaginative recreations of former ways of life and industrial history; while zoos where local fauna cohabit with exotic species are sure to delight both the young and the young-at-heart!
Hooray for theme parks!
Besides offering spectacular views of the St. Lawrence and its endless parade of boats and ships, the Old Ports of Montréal and Québec City have so many attractions and goings-on on their boardwalks that they've become hands-down favourites with locals and visitors alike.
In Saguenay—Lac-Saint-Jean, the Val-Jalbert historic village, located at the foot of a splendid waterfall, recreates daily life in a small town that owes its inception to the logging industry. Further west, in Abitibi-Témiscamingue, the Cité de l'or (city of gold) plumbs the depths of the former gold mine in Val d'Or. In the Mauricie, the Cité de l'énergie (city of energy) in Shawinigan provides a fascinating introduction to hydroelectricity and its role in the aluminium and pulp and paper industries.
Certain sites allow visitors to step back into rural or logging camp life in the 19th and early 20th centuries. These include the Village québécois d'antan (old-time Québec village) in Drummondville (Centre-du-Québec); the Village des défricheurs (pioneer village) in Saint-Prosper (Chaudière‑Appalaches); and the Musée du bûcheron–Village forestier, a recreation of a logging camp in Grandes-Piles (Mauricie). The Site de la Nouvelle‑France (Saguenay—Lac-Saint-Jean), spectacularly located on the Saguenay Fjord, takes visitors back even further to the earliest days of New France.
Come along for the ride!
Like the ruler of all it surveys, La Ronde, Montréal's world-famous amusement park, holds court midstream in the St. Lawrence across from the Old Port of Montréal. Located right next to Parc Jean-Drapeau, La Ronde is undoubtedly one of Montréal's most popular sites. With its Ferris wheel, roller coasters, observation tower, fireworks and varied performance program, La Ronde has all the right ingredients to please everyone, even the most die-hard thrill-seekers. An hour north of Montréal, the Village du Père Noël (Santa's village) in the Laurentides region is a guaranteed winner with the little ones during the summer season.
Wildlife, etc.
A family visit to the zoo or aquarium is a sure bet for a successful outing! The remarkable Parc aquarium du Québec, which presides over the river as it enters the capital, houses sea creatures of every shape, size and colour from around the globe. On a similar theme, the Biôdome in Montréal's Olympic Park brings four distinct ecosystems of the Americas together under one roof: a tropical forest, a Laurentian forest, an estuary habitat modelled on the St. Lawrence and a polar area.
Less than one hour from Montréal, Granby Zoo has enjoyed a dignified reputation for over 50 years. This lively zoo harbours a great variety of species, and its presentations are guaranteed to please. Equally near Montréal and just as popular, Parc Safari in Hemmingford gives visitors a close-up look at exotic wildlife from their cars.
A star attraction in the Saguenay—Lac-Saint-Jean region is the Zoo sauvage de Saint-Félicien, which houses wildlife from the world's boreal regions. Many other places offer visitors a chance to get acquainted with the local fauna, including Parc Oméga between Montréal and Gatineau, where animals roam freely in a wooded environment; the Pageau wildlife refuge in Abitibi-Témiscamingue, where orphaned or injured animals are rehabilitated before being returned to their natural habitat; the Bioparc de la Gaspésie in Bonaventure, which presents the flora and fauna of the Gaspésie; and the Aquarium des Îles in Havre-Aubert, Îles-de-la-Madeleine.

Royal Racing Matrix Shorts
The Matrix, Royal Racing's best selling trail shorts, have new features to help tackle the trails in comfort. They are designed with micro fiber polyester fabric, a detachable chamois liner and spandex panels to help keep you cool, dry and comfortable.
I use these baggies for XC since I dislike showing off my goodies when I ride. The shorts themselves are great! they are long and wide enough to fit over my POC VPD knee pads. They stretch well and are super light. The down side is the liner. They should just do away with it and let you choose your own liner or bib short. I threw it away after 5 rides. The liner got almost as long as the shorts and never went back to its shape. The padding goes flat after 2 minutes and doesn't regain its shape either and ends up giving you a wedgie. It would be awesome if they did away with the liner and knock 10$ off the price. I wear mine with FOX Racing EVO liner.

When There is Too Much Water | Russell Rollason
31 May 2013
For the poor farmers living in the flood plains of the Mahanadi River delta in the eastern India state of Odisha, the main rice crop is grown in the dry season because extensive flooding and water logging in the monsoon season prevents sowing the rice at the same time as most of India's farmers. In this region, climate variability is changing the rainfall patterns and the farmers have to adapt. There is a local saying in Odisha that to get a good crop, you need '8 days of summer rains, 16 days of good rain, 32 days of drizzle and 64 days with a light sprinkle.' These days the framers are getting most of their 1500 mm of annual rain in just 15 days. As a result flooding is more widespread and water logging of fields is lasting longer. In response to the water logging, three villages in Satyabadi Block, about 30 minutes drive from the beach town of Puri, joined hands to hire a local contractor to clean out Kharbar Nala (canal) and reconnect the canal to the river. This was done to speed up the drainage of water from the rice fields and as a result this year 2100 acres Read More
Let There be Sun Shine in Their Lives With Solar Lanterns!! | Chitra Narayanswamy
17 Oct 2012
Maheswari and Chandrakala come towards us with beaming smiles. They belong to one of the 250 households housed in the Thubrahalli slum by Kundanahalli gate at Bangalore. The houses are shanties made of mud, bamboo and covered with plastic tarpaulin. Some of the households though are lit with modern energy, LED based solar lanterns. GMRVF, the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) wing of the GMR infrastructure company runs a school in the slum premises housed in 2 permanent structures, while their third housing with sloping roofs operates as an Integrated Energy Center (IEC). The IEC is the first step taken by Selco Foundation to show the slum dwellers an alternate to kerosene for lighting. Solar panels (total capacity of 75 Watts) help to charge 60 such solar lanterns. The slum dwellers rent a lantern every evening for Rs 5/day, handing it to the center operator Hirappa in the mornings for charging. It is also a first step to show the residents their need for better lighting options - easing the burden on kerosene purchases, and eliminating the toxic fumes inhaled as it burns to light the gas lamps. Does the need arise in the shanty next door since it gives them a Read More
Fast Facts on India's Biodiversity Part 2 - Ecosystems and Habitats | Pramod Krishnan
17 Sep 2012
India has a wide range of ecosystems and habitats that includes forests, wetlands, grasslands, coasts, marshes and deserts. Almost all the major ecosystem types in the world can be found in India. I have been fortunate to have visited and soaked in the beauty of all these habitats. Forests - India is among the top 10 forested countries in the world. The actual forest cover (as determined through remote sensing during 2008-2009) is about 69.2 million hectares or 21.1 percent of the geographical area (see Figure 3 and Table 1). In addition, estimates suggest the tree cover (patches of trees that are less than one hectare in area and thus not assessed through remote sensing) to be a little over 9 million hectares. Thus, total forest and tree cover in the country is over 78 million hectares, or 23.8 percent of the country's geographical area (FSI 2011). India's forests are home to a number of charismatic mammals such as the Royal Bengal Tiger (Panthera tigris tigris), the Asiatic Lion (Panthera leo persica), the Asian Elephant (Elephas maximus), Leopard (Panthera pardus), Wild Water Buffalo (Bubalus arnee), Indian Bison (Bos gaurus) and the Sloth Bear (Melursus ursinus). In addition, a number of deer Read More
Fast Facts on India's Biodiversity Part 1 – Biogeographic Zones | Pramod Krishnan
12 Sep 2012
Three unparalleled factors give India its biological opulence. First, there is an astounding spectrum of habitats and ecosystems existing over a wide range of latitudes and longitudes. These, together with varied climatic regimes, have resulted in an impressive range of bio-physical environments. Second, India lies at the confluence of three global centres of origin of life or 'Biogeographic Realms', viz. Indo-Malayan, Eurasian and Afro-tropical. India's flora and fauna have been enriched by elements from each of these realms. Third, India has a legacy of co-existence of humans and nature and a longstanding tradition of conservation. In this blog, I will introduce the 10 biogeographic zones that India has been divided into: Trans-Himalaya: Constituting 5.6 percent of the country's geographical area, this zone includes high altitude cold and arid mountain areas, including cold deserts. An extension of the Tibetan Plateau, this zone has sparse alpine steppe vegetation with many endemic species. It supports some of the biggest populations of wild sheep and goats in the world as well as some rare species of fauna such as Snow Leopard (Uncia uncia). Himalaya: Consisting of the entire Himalayan mountain range, this zone covers 6.4 percent of the total geographical area and has alpine and Read More
Creating Agricultural Entrepreneurs in Jharkhand- Lessons from a UNDP Biodiversity Project | Ruchi Pant
28 Aug 2012
I was very encouraged that Times of India covered one of our small projects in Jharkhand. This project helped 30 young people in the district become agricultural entrepreneurs – cultivating and selling lac to nearby markets. For years lac cultivation had been a valuable source of income for poor, tribal families in extremist-affected Khunti district in Jharkhand. However, a shortage of brood lac or mother insects required to cultivate lac has made it more difficult to grow lac in the last few years. But a recent partnership between the Institute of Forest Productivity and UNDP has given a new lease to lac cultivation in the area. It's a success which has included many more villagers along with it. Hundreds of villagers have been employed in a range of activities relating to growing lac. In 2011, record production in Murhu bloc resulted in an annual income of INR 70,000 for each family. According to Dera Munda, a middle-aged farmer who grew lac on 25 trees, "I have grown around 1.25 quintals of lac which has fetched me INR 80,000." In an area plagued with drought and limited irrigation facilities which has made it difficult for families to cultivate yearly paddy crop, "income Read More
Biodiversity – A Time to Act | Srinivasan Iyer

Rice, pigeon pea, mango, turmeric, ginger, pepper, banana, bitter gourd, okra, coconut, cardamom, jackfruit, sugarcane, bamboo, taro, indigo, sunhemp, amaranths, goose berries. India is considered to be the place of the origin of several varieties of these plant species. India is one of the 17 mega biodiversity countries of the world. With only 2.5% of the land area, India accounts for 7.8% of the recorded species of the world. The country has contributed to and is party to key multilateral agreements on environmental issues, including the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). Pursuant to the CBD, following a widespread consultative process, and programs related to biodiversity, Biological Diversity Act, 2002 has been enacted. India is one of the few countries to have enacted such a legislation. This Act primarily aims at giving effect for conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity and facilitate access to biological resources and associated traditional knowledge so as to ensure fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising out of their commercialization. UNDP contributed to the formulation of the BD Act. Last week, along with the Madhya Pradesh State Minister of Forests, I was at a national consultation which was exploring the challenges of implementing this landmark legislation. In Read More
India- Women in Leadership Programme | Sumeeta Banerji
08 Aug 2012
I was recently invited to speak at the inaugural session of the India- Women in Leadership Programme being held at IIM-Bangalore. This powerful course, jointly designed by IIM-B and CSR, has an equally apt abbreviation - the i-WiL programme. That captures the motivation of the course designers, the intent of its partners and the potential transformation that the students of the course have signed up for. As a woman myself, I have often pondered over the obvious paradox in India – between the empowered women who have occupied numerous seats of power in the country and how this has failed to impact the status of women more generally in the country. Over the centuries, indian women have made a mark for themselves – as administrators, politicians, artists, writers and poets, philosophers, activists. However, disempowerment and its many facets and consequences continue to affect a majority of women even today. The 10-week, first ever certificate course in political leadership, India-Women in Leadership Programme of the Centre for Public Policy, IIM-Bangalore and Centre for Social Research, New Delhi, was inaugurated by Rajasthan governor Margaret Alva. Women constitute 19 percent of the members of parliaments around the world; an increase from 11.3 percent in Read More
Findings from Delhi Cash Transfers Pilot Study | Shefali Misra
16 Jul 2012
The Food and Civil Supply Minister called a meeting in his chamber to review the Cash in lieu of PDS study undertaken by Self Employed Women's Association (SEWA) under the UNDP supported Innovative Support to Social protection project. Alexandra Solovieva, Deputy Country Director (Programmes), UNDP India and I attended this review meeting. SEWA, UNDP's institutional partner which undertook the PDS study in Raghubir Nagar sought a meeting with the Minister Food and Civil Supplies, Government of Delhi and presented the end line research findings of the UNDP supported pilot. UNDP and Mission Convergence were invited. The study findings point to the conclusion that women who received cash made better food choices (such as buying more protein rich food such as eggs and meat). The cash also enhanced their ability to access private health care and did not result in the money being used for wasteful expenditure (such as on alcohol). The Food and Civil Supply Minister Mr. Haroon Yusuf and the Food Commissioner Mr. Dharampal remarked that the study was significantly positive in its outcomes and was indicative that people utilize cash very effectively. They thanked SEWA and UNDP for the successful research. This PDS study has enhanced relevance in the light Read More
UNDP's Support to Rajasthan Mission on Skill and Livelihoods | Alexandra Solovieva
02 Jul 2012
UNDP's support to the RMOL project (Rajasthan Mission on Skill and Livelihoods) since 2004, recently culminated in a terminal evaluation that found it highly satisfactory in all dimensions. On 28 June, 2012, I attended the state level dissemination workshop at which the findings of the evaluation were discussed. In the workshop in Jaipur, attended by the State Minister, Primary and Secondary Education Mangi Lal Garasia; former Chief Secretary who has looked after RMOL from its establishment; Principal Secretary, Labour and Employment; Managing Director of RSLDC (to succeed RMOL); Senior Vice President of BASICS, other officials, evaluation findings were shared and way forward discussed, including good experiences on skills and livelihoods. RMOL has demonstrated good results with strong government's ownership, institutionalizing RMOL as RSLDC (Rajasthan Skill and Livelihood Development Corporation), and allocating significant government's resources to this work, to the tune of Rs. 140 crore in the 12th Five-Year Plan. The mission mode created in Rajasthan was replicated nationally through NRLM. Good practices and models were created on skill development that can be replicated, e.g. our planned work in Assam, as well as with IKEA in Rajasthan itself and in other states. The evaluation in fact recommended that UNDP can support similar Read More
Prime Minister's Rural Development Fellowship Programme Training on Human Development | K Seeta Prabhu
01 May 2012
I was recently invited to address and interact with the first batch of 109 recipients of the Prime Minister's Rural Development Fellowship (PMRDF). Given UNDP's work on Human Development, we were invited to provide training on the human development approach. The Prime Minister's Rural Development Fellowship (PMRDF) was announced on the 13th of September, 2011 by the Union Minister of Rural Development Mr. Jairam Ramesh. The objective of the fellowships is to engage the talents of young professionals in facilitating change in the most backward districts in India. The fellows will be placed in 78 backward districts, covering 9 states identified as Integrated Action Plan (IAP) districts that have a high concentration of tribal and marginalized populations where the fellows will function as development facilitators and assist the Collector by actively pursuing a district programming approach. It is envisioned that the fellows will strengthen the district resource base for programming, explore alternative ways of delivering services to reach the most deprived communities and facilitate district-wide social mobilization processes particularly among the youth. The first batch of fellowships were awarded to 156 young professionals, who were selected following a rigorous selection process. The fellows come from different educational backgrounds like engineering, medicine Read More

Wood's Homerun Pushes Zags 6-4 Over BYU
SPOKANE, Wash. – Behind Caleb Wood's second homerun of the season and a strong outing from Marco Gonzales, the 22nd-ranked Gonzaga University shook its three game losing skid and beat BYU 6-4 at the Patterson Baseball Complex and Washington Trust Field Thursday. Gonzales picked up his sixth win of the season by hurling eight innings and allowing four runs.
The Bulldogs move to 27-13-1 overall and continue to hold the top spot in the West Coast Conference standings at 14-5. The Cougars drop to 20-16 overall and 7-6 WCC.
Both sides scored in the third inning. BYU's run came on an Adam Law single to right field while GU scored on Wood's homerun to left. Wood is the first Bulldog to homer in back-to-back games this season and has two in his young career.
The Zags took a 3-1 lead in the fourth with a timely hit from Travis Forbes. After Gonzales singled to open the inning and Alex Bonczyk reached by getting hit by a pitch, Forbes crushed double to right field to earn his 27th and 28th RBI of the season.
After adding another in the sixth inning, the Zags took advance of a Jacob Hannemann error in center field to bring home another insurance run.
Gonzales (6-2) went eight innings and held the Cougars to seven hits and a run through seven. However, as Gonzales pitch count neared 120, the BYU bats came alive with three runs on four hits in the eighth. Jaycob Brugman tripled down the right field line scoring a pair of Cougars. Brugman later scored on Brock Whitney single, but Gonzales did not allow BYU to extend the damage by getting two fly outs to end the inning.
Gonzales opponent Desmond Poulson (5-1) picked up his first loss of the season and went 5.1 innings and was responsible for four runs on five hits.
Arturo Reyes took over in the ninth and retired BYU in order. Reyes struck out Hannemann to earn his third save of the season.
Gonzaga and BYU will have game two of its WCC series Friday. First pitch is set for 6:00 p.m.

Under budget deal squeeze, will future feds opt out of TSP?
Wednesday - 12/11/2013, 3:26pm EST
The wallets of federal employees hired in 2014 and after will bear the brunt of the bipartisan budget deal announced Tuesday.
Newly hired employees will be required to contribute a total of 4.4 percent of their salaries toward their defined benefit pension — 1.3 percent more than employees hired in 2013 contribute and a sizable 3.6 percent more than workers on the job prior to this year pay for their retirement benefits.
Those additional costs will quickly add up for the future federal workforce.
If the proposed budget deal becomes law, new federal workers will see a total of 10.6 percent of their salaries automatically withheld from their paychecks to cover their retirement benefits.
That's because under the Federal Employees Retirement System employees are required to contribute to both their FERS pensions and to Social Security. The tax withholding for Social Security is currently set at 6.2 percent.
"You add all those percentages up and that's a big chunk to be taken out and nothing in return," said David Snell, director of retirement services for the National Active and Retired Federal Employees Association, in an interview with Federal News Radio. "There's no corresponding increase in retirement benefits."
Will TSP participation take a hit?
As part of their full retirement package, employees can also make contributions to their 401(k)-style Thrift Savings Plan accounts, but those contributions are voluntary and not mandated by law.
The squeeze on new employees — typically younger and in entry-level positions — could lead them to take matters into their own hands, by contributing less or not at all to their TSP accounts.
"If the employees feel pinched, they're going to cut back and might only give a small part of their pay to their TSP accounts," Snell said. "And they could be less financially secure when they retire because of it."
Greg Long, the director of the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board, which oversees federal employees' TSP accounts, agreed that the proposal might not be good news for TSP participation rates
"Is there a concern? Yes, there is," he told Federal News Radio. "But we can't quantify it."
New feds will face 'difficult choices'
However, one potential firewall against contribution rates dropping too severely is that, since 2010, all newly hired federal employees are automatically enrolled in the TSP at a contribution rate of 3 percent of their salaries. Employees are also eligible for a 1 percent automatic match whether they make contributions or not as well as a dollar-for- dollar match up to that 3 percent threshold.
Since launching automatic enrollment three years ago, new federal hires — who once lagged behind long-time employees — are now leading the pack when it comes to participation rates. Some 90 percent of all new hires currently contribute to their TSP accounts, compared to an overall 85 percent participation for all FERS employees.
But Congress' proposal is "a new factor drawing on people's limited paychecks," Long said, and could begin to reverse that trend.
"Some people will have to make difficult choices," he said.
About 14 percent of eligible FERS employees currently make no payroll contributions to their TSP accounts. More detailed data on participation rates is set to be unveiled at the board's monthly meeting Monday, Long said.

More cameras
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 launched an affordable under-$1,000 EF-mount standard zoom for enthusiasts stepping up to full-frame who can't afford a pro lens. At just $599, the new Canon EF 24-105mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM features image stabilization (IS) as well as Canon's latest stepping autofocus motor (STM) for video. With results just in, let's see how this "budget" EF-mount lens stacks up against the pricier competition.
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 rocked the camera market unveiling the world's highest resolution DSLR cameras, the 5DS and 5DS R. With both models packing an incredible 50.6Mp resolution the new Canon 5DS R also includes a low-pass cancellation filter for even sharper and more detailed images. Is this a game changer for the DSLR market? Let's get under the hood to find out.
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.
Sony introduced this ultra wide-angle full-frame zoom for the A7 series cameras at this year's Photokina. With a constant f4 maximum aperture this new stabilized model looks compelling on paper, but just how well does this it perform in the lab? Read on to find out.
Equipped with a new 20-Mpix APS-C CMOS sensor and dual-pixel CMOS AF system, Canon's latest DSLR is the long-overdue update to the flagship EOS 7D model. Read on to find out how the new 20-Mpix sensor performs.
Launched a little over 2-years ago, the first Zeiss Otus model was a triumph in optical and mechanical perfection, and now Zeiss has added a second model to the range, and high speed 85mm with a heady mix of six anomalous dispersion glass elements, one asphere and a floating system to reduce aberrations at close range. Read on to see how well this new exotic model performs.
Nikon has enjoyed phenomenal success with both the Nikon D800 and D800E models, and particularly so with latter model with its unusual optical low-pass filter that cancels out the anti-aliasing effects. So it comes as little surprise to see the usual mid-term update, the D810, consolidates the two by offering a newly developed full-frame 36-Mpix sensor without optical low pass filter. We've had the opportunity to put the new camera through its paces this summer in our Paris-based labs. Read on to find out how well the sensor in this new revamped model performs.
With a full-frame 18-Mpix CMOS sensor and twin Digic 5+ processers that's capable of continuous bursts of up 12 fps – the fastest of any professional DSLR currently - the Canon EOS-1 Dx is the firm's flagship press camera. We've assessed it with over 100 EF mount lenses, to see how well they perform. Read on to find out which models are the best optically and which, if any, you should avoid.
Now that the World Cup is underway in Brazil we thought we would turn out attention to well-known two teams battling at the side of the pitch. In the white strip we have the Canon EOS-1 D X and the Nikon D4S are sporting all black. Read on to see for yourself how these two teams compare and how well they perform when put to the test.
Canon has announced new wide-angle zoom lenses in both their L-series professional line-up and EF-S consumer range. With both lenses boasting new features, and slightly cheaper prices than current options, it's an exciting announcement for Canon shooters who like to go wide. We preview the specs' and look at the DxOMark Lens Scores for Canon wide-angle zooms already on the market.
At less than half the price of the marginally wider, slightly faster Zeiss 24-70mm f4, this in-house Sony model looks like a tempting alternative, but can it meet the demands of the high-resolution sensor in the A7R? Read on to find out.
After the terrific performance of Sigma's competitively priced 35mm f1.4 Art model, the new 50mm f1.4 version is finally here. Read on to find out if it can compare with the best of the best.
We've had the opportunity to test the new ultra-high speed Samyang 24mm F1.4 prime, and thought we would alter our usual review format to take a look at the best lenses for Canon full-frame users. Read on to find out how well the Samyang performs in our tests and if that or a rival model is the best choice.
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?
After reviewing the Nikon mount ZF.2 version of the Zeiss Sonnar T* 2/135 we've now analyzed the Canon ZE mount model. Read on to find out how well it performs.
As a more modestly priced alternative to the EF 24-70mm f2.8L II USM and with a longer reach than the newer stabilized EF 24-70mm f4L IS USM, the similarly stabilized EF 24-105mm f4L IS USM remains a popular model for Canon users.
As a new addition to the Art-series, the Sigma 24-105mm f4 DG OS HAS looks promising, but can the firm replicate the image quality of their recent 35mm f1.4 and 18-35mm f1.8 models? Read on to find out.
Nikon's retro styled Df harks back to the days film externally, but the metal shell with its plethora of dials and buttons conceals a state-of-the-art 16-Mpix CMOS sensor intended for the worst imaginable lighting conditions. Read on to find out how this new addition to the range performs.
After analyzing the performance of the new Zeiss Otus 1,4/55 in Nikon mount we've had the opportunity to do the same with the ZE (EF) mount version. Read on to find out how well this fast standard lens performs.
The Sony Alpha 7R is the most expensive of the two full-frame Alpha 7 mirrorless models announced earlier in the month. Externally the two share the same body and much of the same feature set, but, where the A7 adopts a 24-Mpix sensor with on-chip PD-AF capability, the Alpha 7R has a 36-Mpix CMOS sensor without an optical low pass filter for optimal image sharpness. Read on to see how well the sensor in this new model performs.
Sigma's has recently revamped the 120-300mm f2.8 DG OS HSM as new high-grade Sports series model. It's a promising combination offering far more flexibility that a 300mm f2.8 prime yet at $3,599, it's close to half the price of a prime. Read on to see how well this unique lens performs.
In less than a year the Nikon D610 replaces the hugely popular full frame 24mpix D600 and features a new, improved shutter mechanism and some minor improvements to the auto white balance system. Although the firm didn't announce any improvements to the sensor and imaging pipeline, we were intrigued enough to put it through our labs to find out.
After the publishing the test results on the Nikon 500mm and 600mm f/4 super-telephoto lenses, we've now turned our attention to the 300mm and 400mm f/2.8 versions. Read on to see how well these legendary models perform.
This is the third and final installment of a three part series on choosing the most suitable lenses for Canon's entry-point into full frame photography, the EOS 6D camera. The 20-Mpix CMOS sensor used by the EOS 6D is similar in architecture to that in Canon's hugely popular full-frame EOS 5D Mk III, a camera that we've shown to be highly efficient at exploiting both the sensor and lens, resolving detail above what might be expected. Although that particular model has a slight edge in pixel count, the more sensitively priced EOS 6D should perform similarly. To help you make the right choice when selecting lenses, we've had the opportunity to analyze the data from over 95 models on the EOS 6D.
Super-telephoto lenses like these are indispensible for shooting action, sports and wildlife but their high price and limited versatility restricts accessibility to the average user. Most are to be found in the hands of photojournalists working on behalf of picture agencies, but it's also true to say that a fair number are used by wildlife photographers including working professionals and well-heeled enthusiasts. Read on to see if the current iterations deserve their celebrated status.
This is the first of a three part series on choosing suitable lenses for Canon's entry-level full frame camera, the EOS 6D. The 20-Mpix CMOS' sensor used is similar in architecture to that in Canon's hugely popular full-frame EOS 5D Mk III, a camera that we've shown to be highly efficient at exploiting both the sensor and lens, resolving detail above what might be expected. Although that particular model has a slight edge in pixel count, the more sensitively priced EOS 6D should perform similarly. To help you make the right choice when selecting lenses, we've had the opportunity to analyze the data from over 95 models on the EOS 6D.
In the lead up to Photokina 2012, Canon announced the new Canon EOS 6D full-frame entry-point model within days of Nikon publicizing their most-affordable full-frame camera to date, the 24-Mpix D600. While the EOS 6D boasted some attention grabbing features including built-in WiFi and GPS and slightly undercut the Nikon on price, it couldn't match its rival in one or two key areas, namely the less populated AF system and lower resolution sensor.
In the lead up to Photokina 2012, Sony announced a revised version of their 300mm f/2.8G SSM adding Nano AR coating and full AF compatibility with the firm's flagship full-frame Sony SLT Alpha 99. Read on to see how well this newly updated lens performs on their new top-of-the-range camera.
Tamron's new full-frame high-speed standard zoom won plaudits for its high image quality and balance of features for the price. However, while the Sony Alpha mount version similarly includes an ultrasonic type AF motor, it doesn't have the optical stabilization feature because of the stabilized sensor platform of the Alpha camera bodies. Read on to see how well this revised version performs on the Sony SLT Alpha 99.
First seen at the Olympics in London in 2012, the Canon EF 200-400mm f/4 IS USM Extender 1.4x is a pro-oriented super-telephoto zoom with a built-in 1.4x tele-converter. Engaging this extender converts the zoom into a 280-560mm f/5.6 on a full frame camera, making this one of the most versatile lenses in the firm's line up. Read on to see how well this $11,800 zoom performs with- and- without the 1.4x converter engaged while mounted to the Canon EOS 5D Mk III.
After comparing the imaging chain of the full-frame Canon EOS 5D Mk III across a raft of lenses, we've now turned our attention to the APS-C format EOS 700D / REBEL T5i / Kiss X7i. The 18.1-Mpix 'Hybrid CMOS' sensor in this camera is similar to those of the same size and pixel count used in the firm's other models, including the semi-pro EOS 7D, so it may still be of interest even if you don't own a EOS 700D / REBEL T5i / Kiss X7i.
Announced in early 2011, the Canon EF500mm f/4L IS II USM and EF600mm f/4L IS II USM are updates to two highly respected lenses aimed squarely at professional wildlife and sports photographers, or those who want the best image quality possible at these focal lengths. These Mark II versions aim to take everything that was good about their predecessors and turn them up to the max.
Following on from our series of selecting the best lenses for the Nikon D800 with its potential for massively detailed images from the 36Mpix sensor, we've now turned our attention to that camera's younger sibling, the 24Mpix D600.
There are only a small proportion of photographers who can really justify buying a lens that costs the same as a small car, but if you really need a 400mm f2.8 lens then the chances are that you are going to get yourself one. To stick with the motoring analogy: Canon's EF 400mm f2.8L IS II USM is not at all like a small car, it is rather more like a Formula 1 Racing car.
The second in our series of selecting the best-quality lenses for your camera concentrates on one of the most highly-anticipated cameras of our time, the successor to the hugely popular EOS 5D Mark II. But by the time it was announced, in early March, it's probably fair to say Nikon had taken fair amount of interest away by announcing the 36M-Pix D800 and D800E models the month before. Be that as it may, there's no denying the 22.3 M-Pix EOS 5D Mark III is a remarkably capable camera, and a formidable rival to the Nikon.
After years of unadventurous, unexciting "slow" speed zooms "fast", high-quality primes are experiencing a comeback thanks to the popularity of full-frame DSLRs and the merging of video capture. The moderately wide 35mm focal length has seen numerous new versions from most lens makers over the last two years or so, including this ultra-high speed offering from Sigma. Read on to see how well this lens fares on the highest resolution DSLR currently available.
Announced in 2012, the Nikon D800 is the current undisputed king of DxOMark, with results that eclipse every other camera from all other manufacturers. However, with so much resolution on tap, the question is, which lenses should you use to make the best of what you've got? The DxOMark labs have tested 61 different lenses on the D800 to bring you an unparalleled resource of which lenses are best and which should be avoided. To make it easy to follow, we have broken the reviews down into sections so you can concentrate on the lenses that are important to you. This first section will give you an overview of the D800. We will follow this with a review of the standard focal length lenses, then the telephoto lenses and super-zooms and finally there will be a wide-angle review.
Leica enthusiasts are getting excited as the revered German manufacturer looks set to ship their new M Type 240 digital rangefinder very soon. Featuring a brand new 24-megapixel CMOS sensor, the latest model in the M Series departs from the CCD sensor technology Leica have previously used. So as we await the new, let's look back at the Sensor Scores for the M9, M9-P and M-E Type 220 using that CCD Sensor, to get us in the mood.
A noise benchmark of 187 digital cameras by Peter van den Hamer
DxOMark Camera Sensor is a raw benchmark for camera bodies by DxO Labs. The benchmark is "raw" because it measures image quality using Raw output files. It is also raw as DxO's data can be used to cook up camera reviews that cover more aspects than image quality.
The new Sony SLT Alpha 99, Sony's first full-frame DSLR equivalent in three years, combines the company's latest and greatest 24.3-megapixel Exmor CMOS sensor with its SLT (Single Lens Translucent) technology to deliver impressive image quality combined with fast and continuous autofocus while shooting still images and videos.
Adding a new line to the Canon EOS range, the EOS 6D is a fusion of the EOS 7D and the EOS 5D Mark III, that also includes some trickle down technology from the EOS-1D X. How does the EOS 6D fare against its competitors and more illustrious stable mates? Our tests reveal the answer.
Announced in September 2012 along with the Pentax K-5 II, the Pentax K-5 IIs is an almost identical camera with the exception that its anti-aliasing filter, used on the K-5 II to minimise the unwelcome effect of moiré, has been removed. But does removing the filter impact on the outstanding DxOMark Camera Sensor Ratings achieved by the K-5 II? We dissect the K-5 IIs Camera Sensor Ratings to find out.
Pentax's new version of their very accomplished K-5 model manages to retain the top position in the Semi-Pro DSLR category against some very tough competition. Should we be disappointed that it fails to score higher than the K-5? Not really, the K-5 II incorporates a number of technology updates without damaging what was, in the K-5, a very good formula.
By replacing two predecessors with the Canon EOS-1D X, its new flagship professional DSLR, Canon hopes to deliver both the top-notch image quality of the studio-oriented Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III and the superfast performance of the Canon EOS 1D Mark IV sports shooter. A compromise of sorts between speed and image quality, the 1D X manages to deliver enough improvements to satisfy both markets.
Finally, a Sony full-frame DSLR: the last one was the Alpha 850. But though the new full-format 24Mpix camera shines with all of its new technology and features, it now belongs to the family of cameras with electronic viewfinders instead of with the Alpha 900 and its traditional DSLR viewfinder. With this new positioning, Sony stands out from among the leading lights in this market segment.
Three-and-a-half years after the release of the full-frame reflex EOS 5D Mark II, Canon finally unveils its successor, the EOS 5D Mark III, a reflex camera that takes several significant qualitative and functional leaps forward by borrowing the latest must-haves in photo technology from the EOS 7D and the EOS-1Dx.

Great Jack of all trades
I work in Nyc as a fashion photographer and I have to say the the 5d series are the most used cameras out side of medium format cameras .Ive been shooting with the mark 3 for over a year after shooting with the mark 2 for 2 years great both great cameras. You can see the shots I've taken with it for my work on my website www.brianschutzaphotography.com hope it helps!! also note I only shoot RAW format

Why DPReview in the dynamic range is equal to the D800 and DxO no?

Re: DNR
Because the JPEG tone curve (measured by DPR) tells us nothing about the DR captured by the sensor. It really just indicates which jpeg settings produce low contrast images and which jpeg settings produce high contrast images. In some recent reviews DPR has tried to clarify the difference, but unfortunately they continue to use the term Dynamic Range on their tone curve test.
The Shadow Noise test on page 26 of that same review tells us more about the Dynamic Range of the sensor. You can clearly see the Canon has more noise in the shadows. The D800 can capture more stops of highlight and shadow detail while remaining below a specific level of noise. That is how it achieves a higher DR score.
It is not a conspiracy. Canon just hasn't improved the DR of their sensors yet; I am sure they will catch up eventually.
As a Canon fan, you know there are many aspects to a camera beyond sensor performance (e.g. lens quality, AF performance, metering accuracy). For example, the Canon S100 sensor is better than the Lumix LX5 and Olympus XZ-1, but the Canon S100 lens is so bad that the other 2 cameras are much better options. So, DXO sensor testing only tells us half the story.

I own and use a 5Dmk3 for my studies and some of my clients for a few months now. I would have to write a sensor reading doesn't even come close to showing off this bodies attributes. Canon still have best lens choices if you can afford them, just show in raw if you might want more dynamic range or change settings in Picture Styles ( easy ). This is the fastest focusing body in this price range helping any one get the shot ( not missing it ), due to focus hesitation. Build quality is still best in class except for shutter count, Canon blew that one, but swaping out the mechanisium is always a option if you are a Professional down the line. Only because I'm able to buy one FF system did I invest in the best for most situations like a pro. I did care about just studio resolution becasue I don't have time for this in the field! The 5Dmk3 is the best in the field hands down. No hesitating focus, best lens choices and buid quality. Dxo's mark is for ametures.

Split Personality
DxO Labs use a scientific/unprejudiced approach to measure and evaluate camera sensor properties. Then again, they also use a tabloid way of distorting whatever their findings might be.
There's a difference between perception and assessment. Lurid presentation will attract the masses, informed audience will probably be driven away by it.
Anyway, whatever the title says, information is in the measurements instead.

Thank you
I'm really glad to see a major website, in such dry terms, effectively lay some smack down on the 5D Mark III. It's a minor upgrade over the Mark II and it costs $1,000 more.
That's 100% corporate arrogance coming from a company that thinks it rules the industry.

Re: Thank you
I'm afraid it does rules the industry. But I agree with you that it is very arrogant. Unless of course this is the best they can come up with, a bluff of sorts. Just ask a lot of cash for something that isn't bad, but it isn't great either, and maybe you'll impress their loyal followers. After all, if it is this expensive it must be because it's good, right? :-)

Sospechosa sensibilidad.
Estoy sorprendido por la gran diferencia de calidad que hay entre las dos cámaras. He sido usuario de nikon, de canon y ahora lo soy de sony. Está claro que el sensor de la d800 es mejor en casi todo, pero hay algo que no me cuadra dado que no tiene ningún sentido. El tamaño de los foto-captadores es muy importante a la hora de obtener poco ruido a altas sensibilidades. No es posible que la D800 arroje mejores resultados a altas sensibilidades que la canon 5D markIII. Sencillamente no me lo creo, además he visto comparativas reales en internet y ni de lejos se le acerca en sensibilidad a la canon 5D markIII. No dudo de la objetividad de la pruebas efectuadas pero no cuadra de ninguna forma los resultados. Si hay forma de explicar esto sin recurrir al tópico de que son ciclos y que la tecnología avanza hacedmelo llegar. Saludos.

Re: Sospechosa sensibilidad.
Pues a mí no me sorprende nada. Nikon usa sensores de alto rendimiento fabricados por Sony, Aptina y otros, mientras que Canon lleva casi una década sin innovar sustancialmente en la tecnología de los sensores. Por ponerte un ejemplo, los sensores de Sony son backlit; es decir que la parte que recibe la luz está libre de elementos conductores y otros obstáculos. Esos obstáculos disminuyen la cantidad de fotones que puede capturar cada fotosite y por tanto los backlit dan mejores resultados.
El desarrollo de sensores está cambiando a gran velocidad, a parte de la tecnología Exmor están saliendo al mercado muchos con patrones diferentes al de Bayer y también con posibilidades de "binning" o también los sensores con tecnología "foveon". Canon se ha quedado (hace mucho ya) atrás. No sabe o no puede desarrollar nuevas tecnologías en este área. La única manera que tiene de fabricar sensores de cierta calidad es el usar formatos grandes en donde la relativamente baja densidad de píxeles hacen que tengan un nivel de ruido moderado. Pero claro, a igualdad de densidad o incluso mas alta (mira la NEX-7 una APS-C que iguala a puntos a la 5D MK III), Nikon se los come con patatas.
No es cosa de DXOMark (no es razonable cargarse al mensajero por traer las malas noticias). Si Canon no es capaz de ponerse a la altura de la competencia, entonces debería considerar comprar sus sensores a terceros, como hace Nikon.

Re: Sospechosa sensibilidad.
Y ojo, no estoy diciendo que la 5D MK III sea una mala cámara. En absoluto. es la mejor cámara que ha sacado Canon hasta la fecha y en términos globales es una excelente cámara. Simplemente sucede que hay otras muchas mejores.

Confused about the low ISO score
The print graph for SNR is almost identical to the D800 but the 5dIII is rated much lower. Also looking at picture comparisons I'm surprised to see this low number.

Re: Confused about the low ISO score
I'm confused as well... how does someone else who uses the same software by DxO and methodology (as standardized by DxO as well) get far different results?
Something doesn't jive. But in my own experience with the three cameras, I would say it matches Techradar's results. I'm not one to think that DxO got it wrong, but something doesn't make sense here.

Re: Confused about the low ISO score
Im not 100% sure but there are maybe two reasons
The 5D Mark III have 2 more ISO Stops (even torough they are completly uselss)
So maybe the 5D Mark III looses some points in case of horrible performance at ISO 50k and 100k
or (what would make more sense)
The D800 have a much higher resolution. So at 36MP the D800 have nearly the same performance than the 5D Mark III at 24MP
But if you downscale the 36MP Images to 24MP the Noise is visible less a the D800 than on the 5D Mark III
So with the 36MP you can compensate the noise that you and with less noise at 24MP, compared to the 5D Mark III --> higher score
As this can be easily seen in every test i think also DxO Benchmark calculates this in

Re: Confused about the low ISO score
Techradar are using DxO's software to perform the test. Who do you think is more likely to be using DxO's software correctly - DxO or Techradar?

Sensor test of 5DMIII
So, when is the sensor test coming out for the Canon 5D Mark III? Its available in the shops for longer than the D800 and the D800 is tested already. I can buy a 5DMIII right now if I want but nobody knows when the D800 will be on the shelves. I would also be interested in the test results of the D800E

Re: Sensor test of 5DMIII
I'm sure DxO Mark have already carried out their tests. They'll be hoping to use them to bolster their site visits.
I imagine they're keeping them under wraps for a while until all the hits they're getting following the D800 results start to ebb away.
It's all about maintaining site traffic, after all.

Not only that. It's also about not overloading the site. After the D800 results were released the site nearly crashed.

Expected: Camera Sensor Ratings of the Canon 5D Mark III
Looking forward to see the Camera Sensor Ratings of the Canon 5D Mark III before I decide if I want to buy the Nikon D800 or the Canon 5D Mark III.
Nikon here in Singapore always puts up some supply / strategy issues here in Singapore while Canon is more straight forward and easier to get.

Re: Expected: Camera Sensor Ratings of the Canon 5D Mark III
Don't look at the overall ratings!
The 5DmarkII has a high rating for sports (low light capability) and we all know the 5DmarkII autofocus is not especially good for that kind of use.
Dynamic range as specified by DxO (nothing wrong with that) has no meaning in the real world.
The ability to lighten shadows does not improve the dynamic range of a screen or print presentation.
It's an opportunity for artistic interpretations of the real world (also nothing wrong with that).

To me, DxOMark has the most reliable datas. But please don't select cameras based on those scores, instead, look into the charts, they give you a better representation how good a sensor is.

Canon 5DMarkIII exposure bracketing 2, 3, 5 or 7 Shots?
I dont have the 5DMIII but I downloaded the handbook and there it says that the 5DMIII does only 3 shot exposure bracketing. Is there somewhere a mistake?
