15. Stuart Hogg – 6
In a game dominated by forward action, Stuart Hogg saw little of the ball. When he did there was danger, however with the conditions really dictating the game, he was gritty rather than electric.
14. Joe Ansbro – 6
Received stitches as a result of the Glasgow Kiss with Alasdair Strokosch. Worked well with Hogg at the back, and was on the ball constantly throughout the game.
13. Nick De Luca – ?5
Another quiet performance from De Luca, only really coming to attention for infringing. De Luca is a great player at his club, but this does not seem to be translating on the international level.
12. Matt Scott – ?6
Like Hogg, Scott can be fantastic when in open play, however was unable to demonstrate this on his second cap. That said he did work solidly and hard throughout the game.
11. Sean Lamont – 6
Came off seconds before half time with a rib injury. Up until this point Lamont had been hard working as Scotland encamped themselves in the Australian 22.
10. Greig Laidlaw? – 8
Would appear to have nerves of steel kicking into the wind to win the game for Scotland, having failed with earlier attempts. Laidlaw marshaled the Scottish attack well and was a key part of the defensive effort.
9. Mike Blair – ?7
Another who was key in keeping the first half Scottish attack ticking over and building through the phases. Demonstrated the slippery nature of the ball a few times himself with fumbled passes or spills.
1. Ryan Grant – ?7
Demonstrated to all why he has been a big part of the Glasgow Warriors set up this season. Grant was hungry and forceful, and came close to the line on occasion. An auspicious start to his international career.
2. Ross Ford – ?6
A few squint lineout throws from Ford, although perhaps this was due to the wind. A strong scrummaging performance from the hooker. Still does not appear to be very vocal as captain though.
3. Euan Murray – ?8
One of the heroes of the Scottish team, forcing the penalty from the Wallabies that won the game, Murray put in a workhorse effort throughout this game.
4. Alastair Kellock – 7
Kellock always seems to play better in the rain, in my opinion. It suits him. Vocal and gutsy, he tried to start handbags at one point during the second half. Got in some great tackles and was dominant in defence.
5. Richie Gray – ?7
On this performance, Sale Sharks will no doubt be salivating at the thought of him joining their squad in a couple of weeks, and Glasgow fans will be lamenting the loss. Gray was as determined in attacking as he was in defending.
6. Alasdair Strokosch – ?8
On the other end of the celebratory head clash with Ansbro, and also received stitches for his efforts. Another big part of the Scottish defensive effort and was a constant force through the second half.
7. Ross Rennie – ?8
A stand out performance from Rennie. He threw himself wholeheartedly into the match, making 24 tackles and missing none of them. Will no doubt find himself a permanent fixture in this set up.
8. John Barclay – 7
An interesting positional switch for Barclay, who played like a 7 throughout the match. It seems to have worked well though in the absence of Kelly Brown.
Chris Cusiter came on and immediately made an impact on the game, whilst Tom Brown made his international debut minutes before half time. We saw little of Brown in the second half, but there is promise from the Edinburgh full back.

Apostrophe Ignorance
Warning: This post was published more than 13 years ago.
I keep old posts on the site because sometimes it's interesting to read old content. Not everything that is old is bad. Also, I think people might be interested to track how my views have changed over time: for example, how my strident teenage views have mellowed and matured!
But given the age of this post, please bear in mind:
- My views might have changed in the 13 years since I wrote this post.
- This post might use language in ways which I would now consider inappropriate or offensive.
- Factual information might be outdated.
- Links might be broken; embedded material might not appear properly.
Many thanks for your understanding.
I've had to rearrange my top three most annoying apostrophe mistakes today after visiting Middlesbrough.
There was a stall selling no doubt delicious potatoes. And how had Mr Stall Man spelled "Potatoes"? He didn't spell it "Potato's". Whilst this would be ignorant and annoying, it's possibly understandable. He had a large sign upon which was the following sequence of characters: "POTATOE'S".
I accept that the Stall Holder's name may have been, by coincidence, Mr Potatoe, but I think this is somewhat unlikely. Therefore, this enters at number two in my chart. In case you're interested, number three is the apparent confusion surrounding "you're" and "your", and number one is the apostrophe in "Hear'Say".

Titanic is a large and grand ship that immersed in the ocean by chance. It was not an expected wreck. The ship has a large number of advanced technologies and safety features. The construction of the ship was considered highly superior to any other ships of that time. The founders were confident that it would perfect more than their expectation, but the wreck made the crew and passengers disappointed.
The lifeboats are usually seen in all ships. The Titanic did not contain sufficient lifeboats to carry the passengers during an emergency. It was a true disappointing fact. It did not even have lifeboats to carry at least half the number of passengers. There were two reasons for the lack of lifeboats on the ship. The first reason was there were no proper rules and regulations for a lifeboat. There is no rule that every person in the boat should have a seat in the lifeboat. It had lifeboats less than the minimally required. It was so less and performed worst. The second reason was the designers of the Titanic did not want to fill the boats with lifeboats that they do not use.
Moreover, the most disappointing fact was when the ship was hit by the iceberg, several people tried to escape using the lifeboats. When the lifeboat was dipped in the water, it did not occupy near to its capacity. The crew of the Titanic was not well versed in deploying the lifeboats. They were not properly trained regarding its launch and deployment. The number two lifeboat was tested few weeks before the ship was launched. It was tested and proved that it can carry seventy people but managed to hold only seventeen people. The passengers and crew found that getting a seat on the lifeboat is the only option to escape death. If the lifeboats were carried successfully, it could have saved more than 3547 people.

If you had $1.7 million, how would you use it?
Kirk Myers is brimming with pride and anticipation as he talks about how his 6-year-old nonprofit will use that amount to stem rising HIV rates among black men ages 17 to 29 in Dallas County.
Myers is founder and chief executive of Abounding Prosperity, 1816 Peabody St. in South Dallas. The nonprofit received grant funds from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in September and began using the funds in October.
Abounding Prosperity is spreading the word about its grant and planned uses for it before World AIDS Day on Thursday.
"We are the only [HIV/AIDS group] that mainly focuses on prevention," said Myers, a Dallas native who founded the nonprofit in 2005. Seeking the grant "was a highly competitive process. We outcompeted several minority groups locally … [and] this was a boon for Dallas."
The CDC recently reported that new HIV cases among black gay, bisexual and transgender people rose 48 percent from 2006 to 2009, prompting the agency to award grants to help fight the increase. Five-year grants totaling $55 million were awarded to 34 organizations in 19 states and Puerto Rico.
CDC officials say gay and bisexual men of color continue to be hardest-hit by HIV, and the HIV infection rate among black gay and bisexual men in Dallas is among the highest in the country.
The grant awarded to Abounding Prosperity will allow the organization to recruit volunteers and offer intervention, testing and prevention education, including efforts to strengthen the perception of testing in the targeted demographic. The grant also will be used to educate and test female sexual partners of the program's male clients.
Abounding Prosperity plans to move into a larger building in mid-January, Myers said. The facility will house services for black women affected by HIV, he said.
Working with other service groups is important, Myers said. Abounding Prosperity conducts food and clothing drives and other activities with various organizations as a way to build relationships.
The nonprofit hopes to use some of its grant funding to reach out to churches and faith groups to conduct testing, education and recruitment, Myers said.
He said he is grateful for the funding, even though it is "a drop in the bucket for the amount of work that needs to be done" to combat the spread of HIV.

About town: About 10 Dallas public high school and elementary school choirs and the Townview high school band will perform in the 19th annual Christmas/Kwanzaa Concert at 10 a.m. Dec. 9 and 8 p.m. Dec. 10 at The Black Academy of Arts and Letters, at Canton and Akard streets downtown. With more than 300 voices, the joint choir will perform spirituals and hymns, and gospel and classical music. Admission is $10. Call the academy at 214-743-2440 or visit www.tbaal.org.

We're moving!
Well, not today or immediately, but we will be moving soon. Dan and I have wanted to move away from Southern California for years now for a whole host of reasons: real estate here is insane, a horrible school district, traffic, poor air quality, and the whole atmosphere in this area. Given our working situation - Dan working, me at home - we will always struggle to keep our heads above water here. We are currently trapped in a townhouse that is much too small for two boys but can't move unless we go hours inland (where there are no jobs for Dan) or leave the state. Oregon has just felt right to us for a long time and that's where we want to live.
A few weeks ago Dan was approached by a headhunter about a job near Portland, Oregon. There was a mad scramble to get information to her, get references checked, etc. It looked like the position was a lock since the headhunters only presents one candidate: Dan. Unfortunately, the company found someone local who knew someone else within the company and he got the job.
Dan and I talked, and we've decided that we need to make this happen. He's not getting considered for positions because he lives out of state, so searching here just isn't working. Having a job in place before we move would make the most sense, but we could wait years for that to happen. So we're going to do it. I feel exhilerated right now. It's a bit scary, but we can make this happen.
Right now we're putting together things to do to the house to make it more marketable. Cheap things (not much extra money on hand right now) like painting, replacing the kitchen floor, getting new blinds, things like that. The house is in decent shape but needs some updating and clean up so it is more appealing. I'm going through everything in the house and selling or giving away anything that isn't essential, a process that feels freeing and just plain good.
Looking at comparable houses that have sold recently, we should be able to get at least $150K more than we have tied up in mortgage which should help a lot in finding housing out in Oregon. Just talked to our financial planner and he's helping us work out the financial details. He also offered Dan a position in a group he just started heading up, a position that may well give Dan work while we start out up there. It's amazing how opportunities appear when you set your mind firmly on something.
Haven't been doing much knitting or crafting or cooking in the wake of all of this, but now that things are settled I'm guessing I'll tuck more in. I will be making soap in the next few days and photographing that as I go - have to use up the oils and supplies I have here in bulk before we go, so much soapmaking will be happening in the next few weeks. I also need to finish up the shawl and the scarf very soon. Oh, and I'm making a panna cotta brain mold with pomegranite sauce for Halloween. Stay tuned.

Energy Security
Our current energy policy is not just detrimental to our economy; it is detrimental to our national security interests as well. The sad fact is that by purchasing oil from certain Middle Eastern nations, American money finds its way into the hands of terrorists, and ultimately we are subjecting ourselves to the whims of radical regimes.
It is critical, now more than ever, to unlock America's vast supplies of domestic energy in order to provide for our growing energy needs, reduce our dependence on foreign oil, and prevent critical energy shortages in the future. Our energy problem will not be solved by any one policy; we need a well-rounded, comprehensive approach to energy reform that immediately addresses the lack of domestic production for the short term, and encourages research into alternative forms of energy for the long term.
In addition to producing our own oil and utilizing safe, clean, effective forms of alternative energy we must also apply American ingenuity to the task of developing new, efficient, sustainable forms of energy, with which we can decrease our dependence on fossil fuels.

National Defense Authorization Act Amendment Victories for EMP Protections, Missile Defense, and the Fight Against ISIS
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Last week the House Armed Services Committee marked up the National Defense Authorization Act, the single piece of legislation the committee considers each fiscal year. Congressman Trent Franks offered several amendments to the legislation. Several of his amendments passed and were added to the NDAA, which will be debated on the House Floor later this month.
As the Obama Administration continues to ignore the growing, existential threat posed by Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) technology in the hands of a terrorist enemy such as Iran and ISIS or in the hands of a more conventionally armed but equally psychotic North Korea, and in light of the Senate Democrats' continued intransigence in blocking important Homeland Security legislation, it is incumbent upon the United States Congress to double-down on our proven Missile Defense technology.
The following is a transcript, as prepared by Mr. Franks, on December 2nd, 2015, to support his amendment to H.R. 8 North American Energy Security and Infrastructure Act of 2015. Video of the speech can be found here.
Mr. Chairman, I want to thank the Rules Committee for making this amendment in order. I also want to commend the committees of jurisdiction for moving this important bill forward.
The following is a transcript, as prepared by Mr. Franks, for the November 15th, 2015, Debate on H.R. 1073 the Critical Infrastructure Protection Act. Video of the speech can be found here.
WASHINGTON, D.C. - H.R. 1073 the Critical Infrastructure Protection Act passes by voice vote and Congressman Trent Franks issued the following statement:
"There is a moment in the life of nearly every problem when it is big enough to be seen by reasonable people and still small enough to be addressed. Passage of this important legislation presents an opportunity for America and the free world to address and mitigate the vulnerability that naturally occurring or weaponized EMP represents to the mechanisms of our civilization.

Bill Bixby, (born Jan. 22, 1934, San Francisco, Calif.—died Nov. 21, 1993, Los Angeles, Calif.), U.S. actor who was best remembered for three starring television roles: as reporter Tim O'Hara on "My Favorite Martian" (1963-66); as the widowed father of a six-year-old boy on "The Courtship of Eddie's Father" (1969-72); and as a mild-mannered research scientist who (as a result of a laboratory accident) turned, when angered, into a raging, green-skinned monster (portrayed by bodybuilder Lou Ferrigno) on "The Incredible Hulk" (1978-82). The one-time hotel clerk and lifeguard with pleasing good looks launched a career in show business by serving as a model for automobile advertisements. After landing a bit role on a television episode of "The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis," the durable Bixby enjoyed a more than 30-year career on television and also starred on such short-lived series as "The Magician" (1973-74) and "Goodnight, Beantown" (1983-84). At the time of his death, Bixby, who also appeared in such films as Irma La Douce (1963) and Under the Yum Yum Tree (1963), was directing the television comedy series "Blossom."

Canon EOS Rebel T6i Review
1 Introduction
|2 Next
The greatest Rebel yet. That's a phrase we mutter about once a year. This time, we really mean it, and by a factor of two. The Canon EOS Rebel T6i, as well as it's companion, the T6s (known as the 750D and 760D outside of the US) both feature a new 24.2MP APS-C CMOS sensor (up from 18MP on the T5i / 700D) coupled with a new 7560 pixel RGB + IR metering sensor for more accurate metering. Although both cameras are very similar there are also distinct differences, so each will get it's own review. You can read about the T6s here.
Canon's new Hybrid CMOS AF III uses sensor-based phase detection points for increased focus speed and accuracy in live view. Canon claims that the performance of Hybrid CMOS III should be close to that of Dual Pixel AF (found in the EOS 70D and 7D II).
With the mirror down, the Rebels T6i uses the same 19-point phase detection AF as the 70D, which represents a vast improvement over the 9-point AF system in the T5i. The ISO range remains the same as its predecessor, 100-12800, expandable up to 25600.
EOS Rebel T6i (750D) key features
- 24.2MP APS-C CMOS sensor
- 19-point autofocus system
- Hybrid CMOS AF III focus system (live view)
- 7560 pixel RGB + IR metering sensor with skin tone detection
- 3" fully articulating touchscreen LCD
- 5 fps continuous shooting
- 1080/30p video
- Wi-Fi with NFC
Other advancements come in the form of built-in Wi-Fi with NFC - a first in the EOS DSLRs range - and Flicker detection, first seen in the Canon EOS 7D Mark II, which also makes its way into both models.
The camera also retains several features from the Rebel T5i, including a fully articulating 3" touchscreen LCD, 5 fps continuous shooting, and 1080/30p video.
Specs compared
While the T6i shares many core features with the T6s, the user experience on the T6i is very similar to previous Rebels. In contrast, the T6s gains a few features historically reserved for Canon's more enthusiast models. These include a a top LCD screen - the first on any Rebel - a Quick Control dial on the back, and an eye sensor to shut off the LCD panel when you're shooting with the viewfinder. The T6s also offers Servo AF in Live View which allows for continuous AF in burst mode. The final advantage is the T6s' ability to record HDR movies in real time, a potentially nifty feature for budding film makers. As a result, the T6s will cost $100/£50/€60 more than the T6i.
Before we get to those differences in detail, let's see how the the T6i compares with the T6s, as well as the Rebel T5i (700D) that is now the low-end model in Canon's DSLR lineup.

Yes (with NFC)
Probably the biggest difference between the T6i and the T5i is the sensor. It's no secret that Canon has been using the same (or very similar) 18 Megapixel sensor since the Rebel T2i (EOS 550D). The new 24.2MP sensor catches up with the latest DSLRs from Nikon, Pentax, and Sony.
The other major addition is Wi-Fi with 'active' NFC. If you're using an NFC-equipped phone (iPhone 6's don't count) then you can tap it against the camera to pair. If you don't, it's not terribly difficult. Once that's done you can remotely control the camera from your phone, transfer photos, and then share them with friends and family. If you set up Canon's Image Gateway service you can choose where photos go (and add comments) right on the camera.
|The T6s (right) offers several things over the T6i, including an LCD info display, locking mode dial, and quick control dial (not pictured).
Pricing and availability
The T6i (750D) ships in a body-only for $749/£599/€799, with an 18-55mm STM lens for $899/£689/€899, and $1099 with the 18-135mm STM lens.
Available accessories include a battery grip (BG-E18), numerous viewfinder knick-knacks, and wired and wireless remotes. Both cameras will be available in April.

Discuss in the forums
Did anyone have experience with entering the bulb mode on this Canon? I've read here http://www.photographyanytime.com/5-best-slow-shutter-speed-cameras/ that this is the cheapest camera that can take ultra slow shutter speed pictures.
Does anyone have an example of slow shutter speed shot with Canon EOS Rebel T6i?
I wonder sometimes if these reviewers do actually pick up the cameras they write about. An obvious improvement on the 750D/760D over its predecessors is a better and deeper grip (you only need to turn the camera upside down to see it), however on at least two occasions the reviewer bemoans the poor grip and likens it to the 700D.
A smaller viewfinder is, however, a rather daft change.
I plan to buy a Canon EOS 750D. Please share your reviews if you have bought and are using it.
1. Which lens should I be buying along-with it.
2. Will I face any compatibility issues in due course of time?
3. Do you think that it'll be out-of-date technology in next few years? Some professionals say that it less depends on the product and more on your ability to click. Is it true?
4. Overall, is it a good buy?
Thanks in-advance for sharing your views!
Got Canon Rebel T6i bundle from Costco, picked it up locally yesterday. It was an impulse buy, though I have been wanting to have a DSLR camera for a while. The need for a reliable camera (rather than a phone camera which we had been using for years now) and a family occasion at home made me pick one up. It was quick to setup, starting taking pictures of the occasion. Suddenly the camera wont shoot and showed a busy message. What??? Then it came back to response after a few mins. Thought it was an occasional glitch and continued clicking. Probably took about 200 shots when the "Err 60" showed up. Someone told, the battery is probably weak. Popped in the second battery that came with the bundle and has been charging while I was busy shooting. Still the same Err 60. Tried to reinstall the lens and the problem went away. hm... thought I did a mistake in not installing the lens the first time around. Another 50 more shots, the dreaded Err 60 again. Going back to Costco today.
error 60 happens when the lens and the camera body connection is not correct. Try reconnecting it or clean the metal connects. As for the [busy] sign, it is a result of you taking too many photos at one go consecutively and the buffer is full. This why you need to wait till the buffer is emptied before you can take more photos. This shouldn't happen for most cases unless you are shooting continuous mode or really going trigger happy. As mentioned, buying a faster SD card will help a lot for this case.
I just ordered this camera. I am not looking to take "Professional" pictures and I won't be blowing them up to 6'x12'. Hell, I don't even understand RAW format! I just know that I wanted a camera and lens package at a price point, I knew of Canon's quality, I read CONSUMERS reports (people who used them the way I would, not some self-important ƒ heads who talk of moire and flare) and this camera got very good reviews. My daughter, who takes commercial photographs for a living and has never used or seen this camera, will give me her opinion when we meet at Joshua Tree this month. I'll send her home with some RAW files for her to examine and get her feedback. I know this is not some $3,000 body coming with $1,000-$2,000 lenses but it will do. That's all I will ask of it.
It is grossly unfair to compare canon to a pig with lipstick ! afterall canon is number one !! 750d produces images which is very clean, sharp, bright great detail and nice color...may be initial price is high, if price drip by $100, it is best in its class.
SONY, NIKON , CANON all the three players have different picture style..technically may be sony or nikon are ahead in dynmic range but consumer in general prefer canon for the color and other style which pleases masses in general...and 750d is step in the right direction to the target audience like me..who knows canon may be lagging in dynamic range or slow moving focus etc but still prefer canon because we like canon picture !
There is no Canon style, any style you speak of I can change in post. You cannot truly tell if a photo is taken on a Canon, Nikon or Sony. A lot of fanboys will say they can to make up for their favourite being behind or worse in some way...only the JPEG processing matters.
expert sirs...canon 750d does have the sharpness and bright photos, reds pop up..BUT why the GREENS looks with a bluish or yellowish tint..i observed that on close inspection on photos on flickr and not like pure greens as on 700d or 70d or 550d ! is my eyes failing...can anyone clear my doubts ?
◾Practically impossible to focus on moving subjects in live view ..... Wow, that will be a real problem for parents who want to shoot hockey, football, baseball, soccer etc. They typically use Live View and expect the camera to provide effective AF-C (servo) autofocus to keep the subject in focus as it approaches the camera.
The real question is, Is this a common problem with many DSLR and Mirrorless cameras?
I just received my new 750D (a replacement for my stolen 550D) and already found an issue that beg the question: WHY did Canon leave the 'wireless pairing' with 'EOS Utility' out of the wireless option for this camera?
Absolutely love it. What a great backup camera to have
I finally made it a camera store and played around for nearly two hours. I looked at several cameras and for me the new T6S felt the best in my hand, just like my previous rebels. They may not be pro like many of you need but, for those of us who are not pro's and desire great IQ that can be blown up if needed these cameras are fantastic. I ended up sticking the the rebel series for now and I also brought home a G7x. Im very happy with my decision. The T6s is getting pretty great reviews so far if you haven't paid attention to the seller pages. Everyone has different needs though. Shoot away.
My own personal opinion is the T5/1200D is the only currently available Rebel worth buying. I was never and still not impressed by the T5I for its price. The price of the T6S/T6I puts the 70D within reach which is a much better camera all around. The T5 is good enough for its intended demographic of novices and importantly, the money saved on the body can be used for buying additional lenses. The T6S/T6I duo are not for enthusiasts because they are overpriced beginner cameras. Canon will make tons of money upselling customers these newer cameras with their whiz bang consumer features and perception within the brand.
For the same reasons, I would always recommend a Nikon D3300/D3200 over the D5500. And for a bigger budget, the D7100/D7200.
As for the choice between brands, I always encourage people to make up their own minds based on handling the cameras themselves and taking their time to make an informed choice. And of course, there are mirrorless options.
Ok, image quality is quite good in practical terms (as it is for most cameras).
However, if you ignore dynamic range, Canon's latest sensors are actually pretty competitive... so why do they do such a mediocre job holding detail in JPEGs? The gap between this and a (cheaper) Sony A6000 is much larger in JPEG than raw. I know it was a pretty good JPEG processing pipeline a decade ago, but I think it's getting to be as much of a handicap to Canon as their sensors are....
boycott canon. no more bad cameras. that's the only way around this
The T6i is $100 less than the T6s and the T6i has a few less features. So maybe dpreview didn't want to make it sound like they were equals by giving it the same award.
Regardless, millions of people will buy this camera and be very happy with it. And the images from it will be virtually identical to the images from the Nikon that BarnET is always hyping.
Please kodakrome.
Check the D5500 image tests vs the T6i.
It's not the same. Difference in high ISO noise is minor
Difference in dynamic range is staggering.
When shopping for something new it's about what gives you the best results in either the smallest package. least money spent.
In both those cases it scores worse then any of it's peers.
Great backup body
Differentiating it from the T6S wasn't strictly what robbed the T6i of the Silver award, but the features it's missing relative to the T6s, yes, are of course the main reason.
One of the major reasons is this: a large portion of the demographic buying Rebels will set the camera to Auto mode. That means the camera is expected to find faces automatically in typical viewfinder shooting, & focus on them, even if they're moving, preferably. That's certainly what new parents, for example, might want.
Many competitors can now do this (Sony a5100, a6000, Samsung NX500, etc.). And if they can only find general human subjects instead of faces specifically, at least they can track them using their metering sensor (Nikon D5500). The T6s can at least do this in Live View, but the T6i can do none of these successfully.
Tie that in w/ the fact that the sensor has now only been brought up to slightly-below-class-leaders (won't even mention dynamic range), we don't see much that warrants an award.
Yes, I sometimes forget that a lot of Rebel users use Auto mode - that's something that I personally don't use. I do agree that at least there should be direct access to AF point selection. Even though I don't have a problem focusing any of my cameras, it seems that Canon's AF is a little unsophisticated compared to what others are making.
I think he's saying it's a bad camera because it has close to no improvements over any last models. You can pick up a 600D (T3i) and still come up with the exact same photos and videos.
It seems so pointless to make two cameras that are so similar. They probably could have sold the T6s for the price of the T6i if they didn't waste money and resources making two models. The only reason for both of these cameras to exist is that they know retailers will stock both and an extra Canon model will take up a spot in the display case that would have been used for a competitor's model otherwise.
Can someone explain why, in 2015, any camera over $499 retail can only do 1080p/30 ? Is it a firmware thing (I somehow doubt it)?
I wish the successor to canon 100d/sl1 would be more more rebellious, with evf, rangefinder style and with some automatic panorama mode..
Maybe Canon will say they have the "M3" There is nothing Rebel in the Rebel line
@fuxicek Yeah, that's what we need, another PlayStation Walmart point and shoot. That's rebellious! They can get rid of that optical reflex viewfinder and substitute a cheap EFV. Then add a bunch of "Make Art" buttons for the wannabes photographers. While we're about it, make it look like a 1950s rangefinder so we can wear it like a fashion accessory.
I actually thought we had too many of these whiz bang glorified point and shoots to satisfy most everyone wanting to make their mark in photography, but I guess we could lower the bar some more. Maybe one that plays music downloads as you're photographing.
'boring' and 'meh' come to mind
Truly, I don't understand why people keep buying these overrated outdated pieces of junk when you can get a great mirrorless for the same price.
I'm not even getting into the discussion about how a great premium compact (like the Panasonic LX100 or one of the Sony RX100's) with an excellent sensor and sharp and fast lens can outgun an entry-level Canon (or Nikon etc.) + kit lens in most anything. Oh, those kit lenses, with their slow apertures and not wide enough focal length (~29mm in full frame, for Canon)... boring is beyond what I think of them.
The RX100 M3 is actually likely to outperform the T3i with kit lens in terms of low light performance, b/c the smaller sensor is compensated for by a lens that lets in more light.
Furthermore, the BSI 1"-type sensor on the RX100 M3 makes it perform even better per unit area than the T3i's otherwise larger sensor.
So all in all, the RX100 M3 will actually pull ahead of the T3i in terms of low light performance w/ the kit lens.
It also will have more Raw dynamic range than the T3i.
It also has face-detection & far more AF coverage than the T3i though, of course, no phase-detect AF.
Something's very odd if it 'doesn't even come close to beating your old Canon T3i with kit lens'...
That is where the truth is. the G1X Mk2 has even bigger sensor but the fact is a dslr is a dslr even if you take from T2i. A point and shoot or even some ILC cant match the results. The major reasons would still be, the DSLR processing is totally different and it may result in the P&S shots are still cellphonish, the color, depth, jpeg rendering everything s different, The lenses even if cheap kit lens is a proper 35 mm format big diameter with proper element size gather more light and with more sharpness. , The sensor is relatively large APS-C or more..
I can endorse from my experience the results of RX100X to even from T2i upwards will be no match in real life...no matter what we find in labs or in theories.
Jay you truly don;t have a clue............
Whether it's a cellphone or a Dslr. both take images with a photosite with a colour filter in front of it.
Then the image is formed by a demosaicing process. There are just 2 differences.
1. they add a different colour profile for different products. Note that this doesn't matter if the camera shoots raw. Since you can just change the colours in post.
2. A dslr will have a larger sensor. Therefor it gathers more light at the same aperture setting.
However a RX 100 mk2 has a larger then usual sensor that is still arround 1/3rd the size of a Dslr.
But the kit-lens is F1.8-2.8 instead of F3.5-5.6. That the lens doesn't cover a fullframe sensor doesn't matter.
F5.6 is 2 stops dimmer then F2.8. 2 stops equals 4 times less light. So a RX100 gathers more light at the long-end then a Dslr with it's respective kit-lens.
Then it has a BSI-Cmos sensor that is more efficient thenmost larger sensors. So it is better. No theory just math
I wish I could corner the market and buy a million of 'em.
A good camera, but not a standout or groundbreaking offering.
In large companies, there's usually a constant battle for power between tech people and marketing people. Right now, it looks like the marketers are killing the tech side because they're trying to hit every price point and so there's too many models. Every camera is limited by what's above it and below it. Seven Rebels is way too many. Canon, please drop the Rebel name and just give us 4 bodies between $499 and $999. Give your lineup some breathing room. Get rid of the T3i, the T5, the T3, and the 60D.
If it were that easy, they had done it but the they still have inventory of old stuff either they produced too many or the sales are slower than expected. Actually, much worse.
Yet, they have to release new products yearly for the Rebel line to maintain prices or charge more.
75 score is good? is that the new math I keep hearing about? failure.
This camera is kind of like inventing an electric toilet seat. You could do it if you wanted to; but why?
An electric toilet seat! Now that would be an interesting idea. We men wouldn't care about forgetting to get the lid down. Ever thought of filing a patent?
That ought to earn a DPReview "Gold Award"
"Highly Recommended"
All of this bashing is pretty childish. I am by no means a pro but, I have had some sessions that have lead to some incredible photos. I have SOLD approx 20 framed prints for damn good money all the way up to 60" wide from a rebel t2. I'm currently in the market for a new camera and can't decide. Mirrorless aren't exactly perfect either at this point. I'm on the hunt and keeping my options open. The rebel line makes a damn good photo for the money.
Just sayi'n' :)
Actually its the other way around. You got good photos DESPITE your camera.
I have taken many good photos with my old A700 that had a disjointed sensor so what I saw in the viewfinder was actually slightly higher than the actual photo so I had to compensate by raising the camera a bit to get a straight photo.
However with my current A7 I can take better photos and I wished I had gotten rid of that A700 a long time back.
I'll take that. I just wish one camera would speak to me. I have money in hand waiting to pull the trigger and I still have too many I am looking at. My trouble is that I am not a pro. I take photos for the love of it. I feel I need a camera capable or LARGE prints just in case I decide to take it to the next level again. I had a art opening once a few years ago featuring my storm photos from a week of chasing. I am still selling some of them now and then. Just can't make up my mind.
All DSLR cameras from the last 10 years are more capable than most photographers:-)
I made some of my favorite shots with Olympus E-1. And I do not hesitate to grab it instead of my A7 when I go camping or something.
I'm considering the A7 especially, because of its new price. :)
Too many full reviews of cameras nobody cares about. Not even 20 "I want it" clicks.
Yet I bet these will go like hot cakes at Best Buy.
This garbage is perfect for low end buyers with no clue at Best Buy, and Costco..and of course Trailer Trash Store..Wal Mart...Hee Haw.
I think this kind of entry-level DSLR cameras are aimed to people who maybe haven´t heard about dpreview -or any other similar forum- and don`t care about what we discuss here :)) They simply want a camera for their Disney vacation and that's it. I guess is a huge market Canon won't let go, so as long as people keep buying the they will keep making more.
They should have just released the 760D at this price and not bothered with this one. That would have been much more competitive. It seems like one segmentation too far.
It is a nice upgrade for a 'starter' cam from Canon. The price and the AF are the downsides. Could get an A6000 or 5500 for that money. I guess if you have Canon glass . . . . but then why get a starter cam?
The "starter segment" from canon and nikon become to be less and less attractive. If you have a lot of good glass (on any make) there isn't any real reason not to stick with top bodies from both companies, and very few reasons one would really want to switch.
But if you have little to no glass, and you are not starting a "pro setup" ... and you definitely don't start such a setup with an entry-level camera... there are a lot of more interesting (and more affordable) options...
I would say "generic" rather than starter... And yes, there are many more interesting options out there to start a kit.
Amazing entry Camera..thank you Canon. for the price you get a lot of super features.
most important the image quality..if you take a look at the Photos they are almost better than both Nikon and Sony FF cameras.
He was surely sarcastic.
Omega3 and magnesium really..
Whats your drugs?
Wow. So much bashing for a new Rebel. Just don't bother if you don't like Canon products. I don't get it.
There must he thousands of things you read everyday that you don't agree on or like. Just ignore them and don't bother if you don't like such comments. I don't get it why you feel bad. Canon is a money making company not a person or a charitable organization.
As usual, there are the usual rants about Canon being obsolete and going the way of the dinosaur and being out of business in months and how mirrorless is the way to go...
Yet you go to any museum, gallery, tourist venue, park etc in London or any other big city and there are two types of camera owner: mobile phone and Nikon / Canon DSLR.
As a keen camera owner, I often check out other people's cameras and in London in the Summer, with millions of tourists, there are cameras everywhere. Get on the tube in the West End and half the people have a camera strapped around their necks.
And I can honestly say I have NEVER yet seen a Sony A7 of any sort. I have seen one Fuji. Every day I see dozens and dozens of Nikon and Canon DSLRs. But that doesn't fit the agenda here.
I had a Fuji XT1 and took it back after two weeks: grip was useless, AF was very slow, and photos were average. My Nikon D750 is better in every way bar size.
So many anti-Canon loons on here it's getting boring.
Nokia and Blackberry were two HUGE names in the mobile phone industry. However both were content to rely on their names to sell phones and didn't move with the times. Nikon is still very competitive but Canon with their below par sensors doesn't seem keen on improving and in the long run that could prove disastrous.
At least Nikon tried something with the DF. canon still has the same design concept since the original Rebel. And yes, if you go to Disneyland will be 100000 proud dads with their Rebel kids and Rebel cameras which is cool, good for them. But I don´t think the majority is always right.
There are still a few key areas ILCs trail in comparison to entry level DSLRs. They are:
- Low light AF and low light AF tracking
- Battery life
- Size: Canon 100d and D3300 are in reality not that much bigger than mirrorless options.
- Lens selection: Still cannot ignore the fact that Canon and Nikon have a wide and extensive range of good lenses to choose from both proprietary and third party. Olympus and Panasonic have a good range but Sony, Fuji and Samsung do not in comparison.
- Color rendition. I find a vast amount of photographers still prefer the colors Canon and Nikon produce. For landscape shots I know what I will be choosing.
APS-C Nikon D3300 is 'not that much bigger' than FF Sony A7 :-)
...and since almost all Nikon lenses are FF compatible, you do not get smaller APS-C lenses either. The dedicated DX lenses are not large, but they sit on a large mirrorbox prolonging them far from camera (on the other hand, Pentax has some tiny APS-C lenses for APS-C).
Colors can (and have to) be adjusted to taste if you shoot RAW, which is what landscape photographers do.
Other points are valid, though.
You may want to look at the low light ability of the 7s, focuses to -4 EV
Friends/family often ask about which camera to buy (as they do, when you're a photographer), when they're looking for a 'DSLR' it's very difficult to justify an entry level one over a mirrorless camera now. I'm just not sure what they're bringing to the market in that particular sector.
The likes of Fuji, Sony, Panasonic etc now have more than adequate continuous AF, no potential focus issues, full AF/control via the LCD, extremely good kit lens and a usefully smaller form factor.
It's only the perceived 'professionalism' of a DSLR that puts them on people's radars in the first place, that and the bigger must mean better mentality still quite prevalent in the U.S. (Asia has embraced mirrorless in the entry level sector).
For all the talk of the big guns such as the Sony a7RII, I think the entry level market is where mirrorless already has the edge on DSLRs for the vast majority of potential purchasers, they just don't necessarily know it just yet.
And how do you justify buying an ILC camera for people who will almost certainly never change the lens?
Marketing certainly has peoples minds twisted as to what they desire vs actual needs (as superficial as they might be!)
Why not get a large sensor compact like the LX100?
That's a very good point.
However, the LX100 is a very advanced and for beginners confusing camera. The RX100 will suit them better with it's regular PASM control layout.
Then i do see a lot of beginners with a additional telephoto lens. Giving them roughly 28-450mm equiv. These compacts don't have the option to get longer focal lengths.
But they sure are easier and therefor more likely to be taken anywhere
Now a counter argument would be what about the FZ1000. All i can say then is yeah you have a good point. It's heavy but it does everything a family man could ask for and then some.
There are still a few key areas ILCs trail in comparison to entry level DSLRs. They are:
- Low light AF and low light AF tracking
- Battery life
- Size: Canon 100d and D3300 are in reality not that much bigger than mirrorless options.
- Lens selection: Still cannot ignore the fact that Canon and Nikon have a wide and extensive range of good lenses to choose from. Olympus and Panasonic have a good range but Sony, Fuji and Samsung do not in comparison.
- Color rendition. I find a vast majority of people still prefer the colors Canon and Nikon produce. For landscape shots I know I what I will be choosing.
low light AF
no some mirrorless can go uo to -4 ev in point to point both of my mirrorless smoke my previous Dslr in low-light point to point.
low light tracking
yes mirrorless switches to a contrast based system using the whole sensor in low light. which is very precise and pretty quick these days. But completely screws up in tracking
check with lenses mirrorless models with collapsible zooms are as thick as these Dslr's without a lens attached. the difference is significant. http://j.mp/1LtlJK3
lens selection.
Fujfilm not a good selection?! Samsung is getting it together a lot better then most people realise. Sony lacked focus on the Apsc mount. But they've released 8 FE-lenses in less then 2 years. excluding the recent Zeiss batis lenses.
Colour rendition.
Fujifilm and Olympus have many fans in this regard as well.
I would say actually fujifilm has the best out of camera results with the film simulation modes.
@Zigadiboom: "100d and D3300 are not much bigger than mirrorless options"
Obviously you have never picked up a GX7 or A6000.
I agree that many people wanting a decent camera for general use are starting to be better served by mirrorless, but there is a segment who are still legitimately attracted to entry-level DSLRs - those who have aspirations to take photography seriously but who can't afford the more expensive bodies. Beginning students are a good example. They know that all the pros use Canikon and that there is an extensive lens and accessories system for both. They want to know that they can build up their system gradually towards a more pro system without having to change systems somewhere down the line. For that market, the changes Canon have brought in on the 760D are actually very good - you finally get two control dials and a top LCD, and the sensor is up to date in terms of resolution at least.
But this is changing. Now they use the mobile most of the times, leave the DSLR+kit lens in the closet because it's too bulky after having used it 2 or 3 times. They literally use the camera 2 or 3 times and you never see them again using it. Then they ask you for a nice camera, but smaller, and they want wifi, NFC, they want to post to facebook, and be able to carry it in a pocket, nevermind buying lenses.
I had my first SLR in the 70s and used SLRs ever since but it seems the writing is on the wall already and DSLRs will be a niche segment heading towards the inevitable obsolescence. The gap between mirrorless and DSLRs is shrinking, it's just a matter of time,
My friend was a student and he picked up a Canon T3i and over the course of 3 years picked up a 55-250mm , 10-22mm, 17-50mm, 50mm f1.8 and 60mm f2.8 macro.
He then decided to go full frame and found out none his lenses other than the 50mm prime could be used on full frame.
After borrowing a Fuji XE-1 with 18-55mm lens he was amazed at just how much better it was compared to his current gear and he has instead moved to Fuji now.
He feels that people should buy what they need now and don't plan for the future based on your current needs as no one can be sure what direction the camera market will go.
I can actually understand that move.
Never believed the XE-2 could outresolve the Gx7 with the 20mm prime lens with it's bundled kit-lens.
But it simply did that in multiple occasions. That kinda blew my mind. That X-trans colour array without AA filter. And proper quality glass truly makes a difference.
I am not saying it rivals fullframe but it did outperform my apsc 16mp Dslr and Gx7 mirrorless by a fair margin
^^ I did compare his camera with my A7 II and the results were waay to close for my comfort. :P
The only thing my A7 was better at was video which I don't care about and the fact that I could use all my existing Sony A mount lenses.
Me too..
But I don't really see the colors-hype..
I'm mostly shocked at how unreal the pictures turn out when.using astia or velvia settings..
Ofc, in vsco i mainly use provia 100f or 400x and the astia or neopan presets for my canon images too..
So, yeah call me a fan of fuji colors, just not the digital ones..
^^ Well yes accurate is hardly a word I would use to describe Fuji colors. But then again lot of people like HDR and high contrast stuff which again is not accurate but up to some people's tastes.
Well, HDR when done right, is far more natural than 14EV dr images..
Or do you only see blaring white sky when you look at a house in the shade?
At least my eyes always produce HDR (or LDR to be fully correct) images in my brains.
Not talking about tonemapping that overthrows your textures and stuff though.
^^ Of course I don't disagree with you. I use exposure blending very often in fact. But the done right part is where the issue lies. Most people use HDR tonemapping and many people like that look which is the issue.
Thinking about it a bit more, I guess the established CaNikon systems are great if you want to build a system gradually on the cheap. Some serious lens bargains to be found owing to the sheer volume of them out there. Fuji is getting there due to their aggressive discounting, but a CaNikon with a 50mm 1.8 is hard to argue with when starting out.
I'd take issue with the 'buying Canon to work towards becoming a pro' argument though. Plenty of pros shooting pretty much everything but sport with mirrorless gear now (particularly Fuji), and you can pick up an X-E1 with the exact sensor that those pros are using in their X-T1s for silly money now.
If you're serious, you can get a pentax super takumar 50/1.4 for a little under a hundred bucks and work manually :-)
^^ The working manually is the issue. I know a person who bought a 7D camera (his dad was rich and he was just a student). After a few months I asked him how the camera was and he was like AF is terribly slow and most photos were blurred.
I was stunned that he found a 7D slow so I asked him to show me.
I found out he shoots exclusively in live view and holds the camera how you would hold a compact camera without an EVF.
He is but pretty much representative of a large portion of new buyers who know precious little about using a camera.
Yes I admit that getting students to use the viewfinder is like pulling teeth sometimes (I work with students all the time). Getting them to look at the subject directly is even harder - it's as if they think the camera sees something completely different. Their phones have taught them that anything interesting comes through a screen. Point is though, that they can and do gradually move away from this way of doing things
Just want to shine some positiveness into all the negativity: The original Rebel 12 years ago was able to produce some very nice, sharp and clean photos that I still have in my collection. Actually, pixel for pixel they were as good as those from today's cameras.
A very good point...please remember a photo is only as good as its content.
'MARKET FOR DSLRs SHRINKING DRAMATICALLY AND WHY CANON/NIKON ARE TO BLAME'.
Very insightful article I thought.
Who needs reviews of such old timers? Even D810 is old now compared to A7RII.
And Sigma... and Ricoh...
Canon once seemed to be neck in neck with Nikon. That's hardly the case these days when it comes to APS-C offerings.
Depends on where you look. Yes most of Canon's APS-C offerings are inferior to Nikon and everyone else for that matter except for Sigma.
However their 7D II is probably the best APS-C DSLR right now and not even the Nikon D7200 can match it in AF and burst mode.
Great review as usual but this camera doesn't deserve a review.
Hope to see more camera reviews from other models and manufacturers that don't often appear here and which are more worthwhile.
I really doubt the core of the Rebel segment will spend time checking things here. They simply go to Walmart/Target/BBuy and grab a Canon or Nikon because those are the brands with the top of mind + distribution, and they need a camera for their holidays.
Since there are people that pay many thousands to buy primitive cameras like Leica's and still be happy, this one is certainly not bad at all in a general sense: it has more than enough controls and a more than decent sensor to enable any photographer who knows how to take a photo to be merry.
Since they are both similar cameras that cost about the same, the comments above make sense.
I never said it had to be a Leica...... There's plenty of other makes out there that offer a far better entry level camera than this pile of pigs done
You can put lipstick on a pig to make it look better, but at the end of the day its still a pig! and this camera is no different
It is a fact that Canon/Nikon/Pentax have failed to successfully - all but peripherally - enter the DSLM market with competitive products. However, Pentax appears to be winning the DSLR APS-C battle with superb all-around high-end but inexpensive products whereas Canikon still hold their fort intact due to their extensive line of lenses and strong FF offerings.
> Although both cameras are very similar there are also distinct differences, so each will get it's own review. You can read about the T6s here.
Where "here" is http://www.dpreview.com/canon-eos-rebel-t6s
But once again this returns a "404 PAGE NOT FOUND" error.
I'm surprised that this hasn't been mentioned, or did it fail after initially working properly 7 or so hours ago?
Canon seem to be stuck in a cycle of camera churn, they keep adding new crippled cameras into their range. Their message is confusing, they have too many cameras at too many price points and too little innovation.
I want Canon to succeed, through better products that exicte and enthuse me to go out and take those special moments that make this hobby worthwhile.
Can this only come about with change at the top of their organisation or have they really got the will and capability to turn around their fortunes?
I hope so and soon, but I don't know how much longer I can keep waiting, I don't think this model answers anyones wishes, think and try again Canon - quickly!
Lets give great admiration and encouragement to the content writers of this review.
They really have to scrounge up their adjectives to come up with describing this mediocre product that have been put on a pedestal by Market Spin Doctors.
Canon consumer cameras are the epitome of Marketing Spin.
Nikon are offering 50mm f1.8 and 35mm f1.8 lenses with the modern miracle of wide-open sharpness and smooth bokeh at a cheap price. No one else is doing that.
Oops, Mr. Bond - better do some research next time. Pentax offers almost exactly those two products (50/1.8 and 35/2.4, sharp wide open, smooth bokeh and amazing price).
"Oops, Mr. Bond - better do some research next time. Pentax offers almost exactly those two products (50/1.8 and 35/2.4, sharp wide open, smooth bokeh and amazing price)."
The 35mm is a stop down from the nikon. It's really not comparable.
The 50mm is no where near sharp wide open like the nikon (similar to the nikon wide-open only at at f2.8). Further the bokeh deteriorates rapidly when you stop down in to nissen bokeh (double lines, the worst kind) at medium distances. The nikon bokeh performance is absolutely stellar. The best I've seen for mainstream 50mm lenses, and as a long time bokeh hunter, I've seen a lot.
No surprise as the nikon is a modern aspherical design while the pentax and Canons are old-fashioned conventional designs. You pay less and you get less.
I'm sure it's a much better lens than its predecessors, but the 50mm Pentax DA is no modern miracle.
neither is the nikon 50mm F1.8g
It's a very good lens. especially for it's price.
The Pentax is very very close. The 35mm is actually better then the Nikon but loses a bit of speed.
modern miracles are the Sony FE 55mm F1.8. Sigma 50mm F1.4 ART. this miracles don't come cheap
Those are expensive lenses. The point is that the nikon is a miracle of sharpness+bokeh+cheapness. The Pentax isn't even close, to contradict you.
Sony too has cheap 35mm f1.8 and 50mm f1.8 lenses for its SLT system and both have IS to boot.
For mirrorless the 50mm and 35mm lenses are a bit more expensive than Nikon but they also have OSS and are built from metal so are sturdier.
A case of mistaken identity--a $500 camera masquerading as a $750 camera.
This would probably be a decent value at $499.

ABM Industries Incorporated (ABM) has entered into an agreement to acquire Air Serv Corporation for approximately $158 million in cash. The transaction is expected to be slightly accretive to ABM's earnings in fiscal 2013 and to contribute significantly in the future. The transaction, pursuant to customary closing conditions, is expected to close next month.
Air Serv is a leading provider of integrated facility management services for the world's leading airlines and freight companies at airports across the United States and United Kingdom. It generates annual revenues of approximately $300 million and employs around 12,000 employees globally and provides a variety of janitorial, passenger, security services and transportation services. Air Serv is the global leader in wheelchair, baggage handling and skycap services.
The combined entity will significantly expand ABM's capabilities in meeting the end-to-end needs of the airlines and airport authorities and is expected to generate over $650 million in annual revenues. This acquisition will augment ABM's aviation capabilities and position the company as the industry leader in this space.
In the recently reported third-quarter fiscal 2012, ABM posted adjusted earnings of 37 cents per share, falling short of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 42 cents as well as the year-ago quarter earnings of 51 cents per share.
Total revenue remained flat year over year at $1.08 billion, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.09 billion. Contract cancellations of government-related businesses in the Facility Solutions segment negatively impacted the results.
The acquisition will enhance ABM's international footprint and Air Serv's U.K operations will serve as a base for expanding ABM's in other services as well. However, the dearth of government contracts as well as weak global economic condition will weigh on the margins going forward. Moreover, as the company's Facility Solution segment depends heavily on government contracts, any further cancellation of these contracts would have a negative impact on its revenues.
ABM retains a short-term Zacks #3 Rank (Hold). We have a long-term Neutral recommendation on the stock.

ARIES (21st March to 20th April)
Through the month of January 2014 the focus for the Aries is in the area of partnerships. Partnerships receive lots of energy and attention, and although there can be potential for quarrels; they are assured to be settled in a diplomatic manner with verbal communication. There may be a tendency to put oneself or own needs first, so be careful not to set out to dominate or rule the relationship. If one is single there may be a strong drive or urge to attract the opposite sex with strong determination, courage and confidence. Home endeavours during this period are highly favoured and beneficial; a move to a differing home may be on the cards.
TAURUS (21st March to 21st May)
With the planet Venus, the ruler of Taurus in retrograde, there could be some frustration around financial matters. For Taureans there needs to be caution around spending habits and it's the perfect time to be shrewd financially. There may also be a very strong love of travelling to foreign countries around this time, although there may be some delays in travelling so make sure you are well prepared. Potential romances may also involve someone from another country or emigrating. Beware and cautious of daredevil driving.
GEMINI (22nd May to 21st June)
For the fast minded Gemini, the mind may naturally veer towards big businesses and finance and a connection to large amounts of money are very much favoured. Do be careful not to become too fixated as the Gemini sign needs its movement and adaptability. One's mental processes may be slowed down to a more practical and rational level. The area of work may feel very laborious during this period but hang in there. It would be best to handle one thing at a time over the January month. Erotic thoughts and fantasies may be stimulated over this period also.
CANCER (22nd June to 23rd July)
Philosophy, religious, political and other spiritual subjects may be of interest over the period of January and there may be an emotional link to foreigners or foreign lands. This month it's going to be a very sensitive month for the cancerians, and the imagination will be extremely active over this period. It will be a wonderful time to enjoy music, films and meditation, all places where the imagination can run wild and be free. As Jupiter the planet of expansion is moving through your first house, be careful of weight fluctuations and overindulgence with food and wine.
LEO (24th July to 23rd August)
For the Leo the area of work is the core focus. This can be a very busy but very creative month for the Leo, as the daily routines increase one is sure to be busier and rushed off their feet. Be sure not to get too stressed though steady routines are sure to give you a sense of security. This is also a positive time to focus on one's health. Changing one's diet and eating habits, and perhaps going to the gym for a workout is a good idea. A visit to or from grandparents will be nice and beneficial.
VIRGO (24th August to 23rd September)
This is a great period for once recreational focus and a great time to enjoy oneself and pursue parts of life that are pleasurable. Socialising is sure to increase, so this is a great time to go cinema, eat out, wine and dine and enjoy one's romantic life. Children may also be of great focus over this period, so be sure to be childlike and be playful. This can also be a positive time for speculation, so be sure to give the lottery a go. So make this month a very creative one and be sure to be entertained. Also, if you drive be sure to get your vehicle checked out.
LIBRA (24th September to 23rd October)
This is a great period for once recreational focus and a great time to enjoy oneself and pursue parts of life that are pleasurable. Socialising is sure to increase, so this is a great time to go cinema, eat out, wine and dine and enjoy one's romantic life. Children may also be of great focus over this period, so be sure to be childlike and be playful. This can also be a positive time for speculation, so be sure to give the lottery a go. So make this month a very creative one and be sure to be entertained. Also, if you drive be sure to get your vehicle checked out.
SCORPIO (24th October to 22nd November)
This is a wonderful time to get the mind working on a mental level. Mental stimulation through communication or writing, while one is in seclusion preferably, will be of extreme benefit. It is also a great time to learn new things, perhaps go on a short course or back to school/university may be on the agenda. Either way this will be a very good learning period. One will find the mind being busier than usual during this month. There will also be lots of activity around siblings and one's neighbours. Buying a new vehicle or taking a driving test may also be on the agenda. A possible connection with one's ex partnerships is highly likely and communication within one's romantic relationships is favoured during this period.
SAGITTARIUS (23rd November to 21st December)
This is a period of financial focus and matters. It is likely to be a positive period, but nevertheless, do be careful of over the top spending habits. Pay great attention to one's taxes, loans and mortgages and make sure these areas are covered. This period can be a great time to execute powerful financial gain through investments and inheritances. This is also a positive period to also consider a change within the work arena if one wishes to as there can be a feeling that the work arena is slipping away and dissolving. But not to worry, a change of work is of great benefit at this time so trust in change.
CAPRICORN (22nd December to 20th January)
There will be much focus and help from one's loyal and supportive friends and associates. One may also be connected to older and wiser friends and associates. Your area of networking will also be of great interest over this period. This is a period of me, myself and I. A period of finding what you want and what you need, and going about it in a very assertive and directed way. One is going to be very keen to achieve their aspirations, and one's interests and hobbies are going to be taken very seriously. There may be emotional support from or to siblings. A need to balance time to oneself and the relationship is very important at this time.
AQUARIUS (21st January to 18th February)
This is a period of heavy responsibilities for the Aquarian, but a great time for job promotion and even job changes. One is likely to become very ambitious and is likely to also sacrifice family life as a result of something greater and bigger. One may become very self-sacrificing during this period and the word fear is not in the vocabulary of the Aquarian during this period as one could even be fearful of failure of success during this period. Success comes through hard earned work but can be taxing psychologically. They can be work or jobs that are connected to overseas or other countries that are of great benefits. There may even be opportunities to work abroad and seize such opportunities where possible. A great time to give and be involved in charitable works, so self seclusion and a need to withdraw from the world may also be needed.
PISCES (19th February to 20th March)
This is a time of being optimistic and enthusiastic. Creativity is paramount during this period and a time to be flamboyant and even dramatic is favourable. This is a great period to be around children and have children also, as one's fertility and pregnancy is heightened during this period if wanted. Feeling highly romantic and enchanting, romantic relationships are highly favoured, but be careful not to gullible and dreamy. Long-distance travel may be delayed or put off to a later date. Social life will be very favourable with plenty of socialising and events to attend. A great time to strive for intellectual improvement and education, if one is a student it is a great time to be very disciplined and focused in one studies.

IP Routing 2
Question 1
Question 2
The administrative distance of each protocol is compared to see if that route is better or not.
Question 3
Letter "D" is used to symbolize for EIGRP (with a default AD of 90). Letter "E" is not used for EIGRP because it has been used for Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP). It is a obsolete routing protocol now.
Question 4
Question 5
If there is a default route then surely the router will forward all unknown traffic to there. But if there is no default route in the routing table then the router will discard the packet. In this question we suppose there is no default route in the routing table. Otherwise the question should state it (this question is unclear).
Question 6
Question 7
Question 8
Making a forwarding decision actually consists of three sets of processes: the routing protocols, the routing table, and the actual process which makes a forwarding decision and switches packets. The longest prefix match always wins among the routes actually installed in the routing table, while the routing protocol with the lowest administrative distance always wins when installing routes into the routing table.
Reference: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/ip/enhanced-interior-gateway-routing-protocol-eigrp/8651-21.html
Question 9
In fact this question is not clear. If we understand that "router is unable to find a known route in the routing table" and there is no default route in the routing table then the router will surely discard the packet -> A is correct. But we are not sure if there is a default route or not so let learn more about gateway of last resort.
A Gateway of Last Resort is a route used by the router when no other known route exists to send the IP packet. For CCNA level, when ip routing feature is enabled, a gateway of last resort is usually created by:
+ The "ip default-network" command (but dynamic routing protocols have different behaviors). But in general, the "ip default-network" cannot set the gateway of last resort without a known route in the routing table.
+ Creating a static route to network 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 is another way to set the gateway of last resort on a router. This is the reason why this question is not clear as it does not tell us if a default route exists or not.
Maybe in this question a default route does not exist. Otherwise the author would notice and indicate it in the question.
For more information about Gateway of Last Resort, please read: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/ip/routing-information-protocol-rip/16448-default.html
Question 10
The default administrative distance value of static route is 1 which is always smaller than any dynamic routing protocol so it is always preferred to dynamic routing protocols.
Question 11
Floating static routes are static routes that have an administrative distance greater than the administrative distance (AD) of another static route or dynamic routes. By default a static route has an AD of 1 then floating static route must have the AD greater than 1. Floating static route has a manually configured administrative distance greater than that of the primary route and therefore would not be in the routing table until the primary route fails.
Question 12
A host route for IPv4 has the mask /32, and a host route for IPv6 has the mask /128. If an IPv4 address is configured with a mask of /32 on an interface of the router, which is typical for loopback interfaces, the host route appears in the routing table only as connected (for example in the routing table we will see this line: "C 10.10.10.1/32 is directly connected, Loopback0".
Reference: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/ip/ip-routing/116264-technote-ios-00.html
Question 13
If the IP address exists in the routing table then we can say the local router knew the way to reach that destination. But this question wants to ask if the destination has communicated to the local router or not ("an IP address is known to a router"). Maybe it is a tricky question.

The midwife is also responsible for postnatal care for those who have had home births or polyclinic birth.
She will visit you daily for up to one week after the birth and for longer if needed to check that everything is ok with mother and child. She will check the mother´s blood pressure, the position of the uterus and the amount of blood loss. If stitches were needed, she will check those too and take them out after a while. She also checks the baby´s weight, temperature and general condition (colour, how alert it is, etc.) She cleans the belly button and around day three or four she can do a heel prick (Guthrie) test.
The midwife is there to support you throughout this period. Even if you gave birth in hospital and stayed there for five or six days you may have some questions; about yourself, how to look after your baby, breastfeeding. For up to six weeks after giving birth you can keep bringing those questions to your midwife.

Janet Jackson "Doing Well," Thanks Fans For Prayers
Janet Jackson returned to Twitter on Saturday to let fans know she's "doing well." She also extended thanks for "love and prayers."
Since stepping away from the spotlight during her pregnancy, Jackson has only used Twitter sporadically. But today she tweeted for the first time in nearly three months. "Hey you guys.. It's been awhile.. but I'm still listening.. I feel your love and prayers.. Thank you.. and I'm doing well.. Al Hamdu lillah," she wrote.
The last part is Arabic for "praise be to god," and is a commonly-used phrase among Muslims. In October, Jackson made a rare public appearance, stepping out in London in what was seen as traditional Muslim clothing. That led RadarOnline to claim the garb had upset her famous family, who was supposedly worried the expectant star was "making herself a target" for a terrorist attack by wearing Muslim clothing.
Jackson's safety, however, was not in jeopardy, and the webloid failed to acknowledge that she was in a city that actually has a Muslim mayor and a sizeable Muslim population. The site has also published several reports alleging the singer has been "miserable" throughout her pregnancy. But as her own tweet indicates, Jackson is actually "doing well." That said, she gave no indication as to when her baby is due. Gossip Cop will continue to have updates as appropriate."
