Elvis Costello Fills in for Lana Del Rey on "Letterman"
By Jeremy Gordon on June 6, 2014 at 11:15 a.m. EDT
It's nice to have friends in high places: After Lana Del Rey canceled a scheduled appearance on last night's episode of "The Late Show With David Letterman", Elvis Costello filled in without a hiccup.
Jim James, Elvis Costello, T Bone Burnett Recording Album of Basement Tapes-Era Bob Dylan Lyrics
By Evan Minsker on March 25, 2014 at 7:58 p.m. EDT
In 1967, Bob Dylan holed up in Woodstock with the Band, and in the basement of a house dubbed Big Pink, they recorded over 100 songs together. In 1975, 24 were released in the essential album The Basement Tapes. Lyrics for another 24 songs, written by Dylan in 1967, were recently discovered, and they're being turned into an album called Last on the River: The New Basement Tapes.

Video: Elvis Costello Joins the Strokes

On Saturday night, LCD Soundsystem played their final show at New York's Madison Square Garden, with dancepunk legends Liquid Liquid opening. If you weren't there, at least 15 people in your Twitter feed probably were. One night earlier, another band of New York rock heroes took over that hallowed arena, with their own legendary opening act. The Strokes played their big hometown arena on Friday night, with a brief surprise opening set from Elvis Costello. And later in the show, Costello returned to the stage to join the Strokes for the Angles track "Taken for a Fool".
Below, check out video of the onstage collaboration, via We All Want Someone to Shout For. Someone really should've been in charge of making sure Costello's mic was turned up louder.
Elvis Costello Announces Spinning Wheel Tour
By Tom Breihan on February 17, 2011 at 3:00 p.m. EST
In May, Elvis Costello and his band the Imposters will head out on "The Revolver Tour", where they'll pick their set list via spinning wheel. Members of the audience will spin the Spectacular Spinning Songbook wheel, which will feature 40 songs, "including hits, rarities, and covers," according to a press release. When the wheel lands on a song, Costello and his band will play it, and the audience member who spun the wheel will be invited to dance in an onstage go-go cage or to sit and be served refreshments in an onstage lounge. (Costello pulled this trick before, on a 1986 tour.) Sadly, this spinning wheel will almost certainly not induce Costello to act out an entire "Seinfeld" episode, the way Yo La Tengo recently did during their own recent spinning wheel tour.

For a while now I have been suggesting that those who advocate for equal parenting need to stop asking and start demanding. After all, how long do we have to be right about what benefits kids, mothers, fathers and society generally and yet still fail to pass our bills before we get the message that we need a new approach? The fact is that when we approach legislatures and Parliament, we make our compassionate, fact-based arguments and every year we're turned away empty handed. If being right were all it took, we'd have succeeded by now, but we haven't.
Scott Comber, Assistant Professor of the Rowe School of Business at Dalhousie University, works with organizations to help manage change and conflict resolution. His training session is called, "Change or Die". He says studies show that of patients with bypass surgery and heart disease needing to change lifestyle for their own survival, 90% choose not to change. In business, Comber says a full 75% of corporate change initiatives fail.
So, perhaps we should not be too discouraged with the failure of federal politicians to accept needed change to the Divorce Act with bill C-560.
I've argued many times that the movement for equal parenting needs to start doing politics. By that I mean opposing those politicians who oppose equal parenting and supporting those who favour it. That means all the usual ground campaign work of electoral politics – phone-banking, canvassing, leafleting, etc. I think that it wouldn't take much of that, targeted at vulnerable office-holders to turn the tide in our favour. Most office-holders want to do the right thing, but have to be made to see that doing so is also in their own interest. The message "We'll attack you if you vote the wrong way, but go to bat for you if you vote with us," is simple and easy for elected officials to understand. Most of those folks want an easy election, not a fight with an intense opposition, even a minority one. One or two successful campaigns pro and con, and the rest of them will get the message.
A federal election is expected in October 2015. I am going to ask… NO, I am going to DEMAND, that if you care about your children, that you sign up for the advocates list
or that you make a donation to our political action campaign for the next election
We must face politicians with the simple fact: we can either do something FOR THEM, or we can do something TO THEM.
If you get letters or emails from politicians asking for money (and we should all be on at least one such list), thank them for continuing to send you information about the party and issues, and note that you have donated large amounts of money in the past/been a member/voted for them (even if you have not).
Find out how your Member voted on Bill C560 here. Suggest that your future support, and that of your family, is linked to supporting family law reform.
Repeat back to them their wording: e.g. "real change" or "standing up for the middle class" and ask why they are not doing what they say they are doing.
Be polite and imply that if they changed policy and acted on our issues, then you would support them.
Our message to politicians must be "change or die" We demand change. We demand action now.

CLEVELAND (AP) -- Cavaliers guard Dion Waiters is out for Cleveland's game against the Orlando Magic with a hyperextended left knee.
Waiters was injured when he came down awkwardly after a dunk Tuesday against Philadelphia. He limped to the other end of the court before going down in pain. Waiters was on the court for several moments before going to the locker room.
The Cavaliers announced Waiters had an MRI on Wednesday. Waiters said on his Twitter account that the knee is sore, but nothing is torn.
Waiters, who has been the subject of trade rumors, averages 14.3 points.
Center Anderson Varejao will miss his fourth straight game with a sore back.

If you've been a reader of my blog for a while, you know that the issue of equal rights is near and dear to my heart. Having grown up in an environment that spanned two opposite ends of the equality spectrum, I've walked into adulthood with some pretty interesting stories to tell, but more importantly, an open-minded perspective and a confident stance in my faith.
So here we are in another election year – and here I am wondering if things will ever change.
I woke up ridiculously early this morning and caught an interview with Samuel Wurzelbacher (aka "Joe the Plumber – remember that guy?), who's currently running for Congress. During the interview, Wurzelbacher was asked to defend/explain comments he had made previously related to his thoughts on homosexuals:
"At a state level, it's up to them. I don't want it to be a federal thing. I personally still think it's wrong. People don't understand the dictionary–it's called queer. Queer means strange and unusual. It's not like a slur, like you would call a white person a honky or something like that. You know, God is pretty explicit in what we're supposed to do–what man and woman are for. Now, at the same time, we're supposed to love everybody and accept people, and preach against the sins. I've had some friends that are actually homosexual. And, I mean, they know where I stand, and they know that I wouldn't have them anywhere near my children. But at the same time, they're people, and they're going to do their thing."
When this was brought up during the interview, of course Samuel danced around what he said, wouldn't comment on whether his opinion on homosexuals in this quote were accurate, and got very uncomfortable.
It's a common trend amongst stark conservatives, isn't it? Ask anyone: Romney, Santorum, Gingrich, Bush, whoever – what their thoughts are on gay marriage. They wiggle. They squirm. And usually they throw out buzzwords like "job" and "recession" – in other words, they're really bad at changing the subject. It's pretty mind blowing, albeit entertaining, to watch.
Probably because they know, outside of religious beliefs, there's no valid argument against equal rights – but that's beside the point.
It's hard to imagine someone like "Joe the Plumber" representing us in Congress, just like it's impossible for me to imagine Rick Santorum being our President (my wife and I have already decided we're moving to Canada if that happens). But this brings up a bigger point:
It's damn near impossible for me to take any potential candidate running for office seriously when they aren't on board with equal rights. I can't even look at Santorum's plan for the economy when he says rape victims should "make the best out of a bad situation".
I may very well cite with Gingrich's plan for the economy. I may think "Joe the Plumber" has a brilliant plan for creating job. But I don't care, because I disagree with them on such an intimate and personal level, it clouds me from looking at their position on other issues.
Social issues matter – they may even matter more to Generation Y, but my question to all of you, as voters, as thinkers, as human beings – does your stance on social issues get in the way of the "real" issues, like the economy, immigration, or education?
Is it possible to look past someone who "wouldn't let a homosexual near his kids" and see a man who may have a ridiculously awesome plan to help working-class America?
For me, personally, I don't think it is. Social issues ARE real issues. It's unfortunate, very unfortunate, that we can't agree on such basic things as equal rights for all. If we could, maybe, just maybe, we could find common ground on the other issues that matter.
What do you think? What's your take? What matters most to you?
Yes, they do. Social issues are garbage issues. It's not that they aren't important, it's that there is a pretty simple and clear cut right and wrong in the United States. I'm not talking about a religious imperative either.
When our nation was founded (for the second time) we were given a pretty clear and precise outline for what the Government's morality should be. It was a blueprint for the future, and even though the politicians of the time weren't able to make the nation exactly as they envisioned it, they knew that their descendants would.
Issues like gay marriage or birth control are throw away issues because we all know exactly where we should be standing on those issues.
The Constitution tells us, without any room for error.
All people are equal.
All people have a right to a healthy happy life.All people have a right to be protected from the corruption of business.
It's all there in the text.
I think my biggest problem with Conservatives is that they claim to be defenders of the Constitution, when in reality, there isn't a politician out there that seems to me to be able to understand it.
The fact that we're still fighting over such blatantly obvious wrongs is weakening us as Americans.
We can't deal with the real issues because we're too busy fighting battles that should have been settled decades, if not centuries ago.
I may tend to oversimplify, but sometimes I feel as though social issues are the ONLY issues. If we are incapable of understanding such basics as human equality then we have no chance of solving any other issues. We can't continue to build a house without a solid foundation unless we want to continue watching the walls fall down around us.
I come from Jewish Heritage, but not in a particularly religious family. I grew up in the midst of the Civil Rights era. Israel stands in Statehood after thousands of years of bloodshed paving the rights to EXIST and be RECOGNIZED. With my fair skin and red hair, I've been called a Mick all my life. That's fine, even though I am 100% Russian decent. I can roll with it. Through 51 years, I've been called a Christ Killer. I got into school yard scraps as a kid because I had glasses, freckles and frizzy red hair. I call my hair, when bereft of product – JewFro. I can pass or claim as I want to. On this Internet, I will CLAIM my heritage that is otherwise unseen. Anyone socially interacting on the internet has made a lot of good room in their mental Equality Space. We don't know who we are talking to – so – we respect EVERYONE as EQUAL until they misbehave in some social breech of manners by outrageous statement, profane or disruptive interactions. It has nothing to do with what their ethnic, color or sexual orientation is behind the keyboards.
The Founding Father's were all about equality as it meant in their time. Slaves were not equal. Women were not equal. Both were property of MEN. The continual need to remodel the Equality Space in our American belief sets is ELASTIC by design. America remains elastic as long as we are a nation who keeps to it's Constitution. As the majority core values open, per era and issue of the day … our ability to replace fear of 'difference' with acceptance makes room and RIGHTS for all of us "huddled masses". There will be prejudice as long as there are humans. Someone will be bullied, culled or bled until they stake their claim no matter how long it may take.
There's always a new group to cull out and question the personal rights to live in the same environment of FREEDOM as you or me. Are you RED or are you BLUE? I believe I am purple if you mix the two and take a middle view of good and bad life in America. This long GOP contest for the nomination is really showing the majority of INCLUSIVE citizens how over the top and fractured the "Conservative" party truly is. The party definitions of Fiscal Conservative became Christian Conservative during the Reagan era. If Ronald Reagan ran for the GOP in 2012, he'd be dragged through the streets as some kind of nut job by his own party. You can have outrageous Joe Plumber's, Michelle Bachmann's and Rick Santorum's getting play, but eventually being left out of the race because they do not INCLUDE most people. You have a slacker Republican like Ron Paul who won't drop out of the race because he's a hybrid Libertarian.
It's Mitt or Newt. And no one likes either of them. The latest ridiculous turn on women's health care insurance went into Bizarro World. Your tax dollars will be directly funding birth control so women can be wanton became a HEATED DISCUSSION. That's how desperate these rubes have shown themselves to be! Planned Parenthood by design of it's NAME says what they really do. They are vomited upon by over indulged GOP candidates each election cycle.
The EQUALITY of Gay people WILL become the Law of the Land. The majority of us accept and understand that sexual orientation in the USA as NORMAL. Very soon, common sense and dignity will Constitutionally AMEND inequity for this population of OUR CITIZENS. So … Matt – let's talk about legalizing pot so we can pull our states out of the economic toilet – or, how about the gas prices robbing our wallets by continued Wall Street rampant abuse in speculation? This 14 month campaign ahead of the election may not be so bad after all! Show us all the crazy this far away from the election – and Obama will win his second term.
Social issues are the ones that matter. What Santorum is actually saying is only the tip of the iceberg. Who knows what he's not saying.
The gay rights thing is just equality; it shouldn't even be an issue, they're just people. I also don't understand how a gay person being around children would do any more harm to a child than a straight man.
Why would these gay men still let Joe The Plumber hang out when he won't even share such a big part of his life with them?

We create state and federal goverments to do a few very specific jobs. If they are unwilling or unable to carry out those responsibilities, they should be removed and replaced.

US to export riot-roasting raygun
The United States is to export its crowd-grilling "less lethal" microwave cannon, the Silent Guardian - which has never been deployed by US forces due to worries over bad publicity - to an unnamed foreign ally. Aviation Week reports today that executives from American arms megacorp Raytheon, makers of the famous yet seldom- …
One day...
... there will be fewer bleeding-hearts in the world and a slightly higher clue factor. But that day is (apparently) not today.
FACT: It is physiologically impossible to temporarily disable a person without the risk of permanent damage. Even a humble water cannon or smoke bomb can potentially kill someone who already has a heart condition. At some point, rioters have to take the consequences of their actions!
FACT: Any government which tries hard enough (that excludes NONE so far) will eventually get hold of the weapons it wants. This has been the case throughout recorded history. Why act all surprised? Get a grip.

The general principle for shielding is that any hole should not be more than one tenth of the wavelength. ie in ths case of 94GHz, approx 0.3mm
Sounds like just using straight tinfoil might work better and keep the juices in nicely, , but that will tear easier. Perhaps a space blanket or similar would be a better option.
Eyes and how it works on adrenaline-high people?
A fleeting use in the mob wouldn't necessarily cause blindness but as a torture device I can imagine it would hapen a lot more often.
But even in the mob, with the whole adrenalin upped, who will notice that it's warm? I had situations in my youth where because of adrenalin I couldn't feel pain. This means that there could situations where the people are getting the full load without even noticing. They'll notice just at some point that they can't see anymore :(. And having more heat-pain without being incapacitated would only anger them more making them more aggressive.
But it may just be that everybody starts wearing a burka ;) with meshes of metal - or keeping it in a pocket. So it won't work on women then in the more radical Islamic countries.

Incompetence a bigger IT security threat than malign insiders
Accidental security incidents involving workers happen more frequently and have the greater potential for negative impact than malicious insider attacks, according to new research from RSA. The poll of 400 top level execs in the UK, France, Germany and the US casts doubt on the conventional wisdom that malicious insiders are the …
My Experience
Anti-Malicious security measures are almost always cumbersome, prompting people to work around them in order to get their jobs done.
I have found that it is much better to make security usable and transparent (like not being able to even see directories for which you aren't authorized, as opposed to directories with big padlock icons on them).
That seems to be emerging as SOP these days.
Make security transparent, unobtrusive and usable. Make it easier to follow security protocol than to go around it.
That will go a long ways towards reducing accidental breaches.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but
100 % of the employees are idiots or thieves.
I know Boolean Algebra buddy, this means 200%!
and the most significant cock-ups are ...
... from management. Who don't understand the effects their decisions will have, fail to communicate all the relevant information to the design teams, put pressure on meeting delivery targets rather than quality targets and only have an attention-span long enough for sound-bite conclusions.
Of course, since they're not the people pressing the buttons, none of their mistakes ever make it to the light of day. All that happens with poorly managed companies is that their security gets worse and worse. They implement less and less efficient policies in a series of ill-thought out panic measures, becoming more and more restrictive and slower to innovate: given all the layers of approvals, decision making, buy-ins, CYA-ing and shared responsibility until they are totally unable to compete.
it doesn't take a genius to figure it out....
In most companies, 50% of IT staff are total ignorant spackers who think they're IT gods.
Presumably this survey was done by someone that's never worked in IT.
I'm not disagreeing with it, it's just that its so blindingly obvious that I wouldn't have thought anybody in the industry* would have had any other opinion of the users.
* Excluding incompetent management that have never done anything other than "management" and so don't know the stark realities of life on the ground.
Permeable By Design
Service Oriented Architectures (mash-ups by any other name) often leave huge holes that are exploited unintentionally by users. Because the services and orchestrators are written to be as context-free and reuseable as possible; they can often be called by naive client programs that don't realize the exposure that results. For example, in a hospital system a client that calls an Admission Discharge and Transfer module to tell Housekeeping and Maintenance which rooms to clean may give unintentional access to Admission Reason, preliminary diagnosis, AIDS. Which maybe you didn't want the janitor knowing?
Hero of the People, First Class
...awarded for the Statement of the Bleedin' Obvious of the year so far.
Of course, "incompetence" can also be read as "under-resourced, over-worked staff, pushed into building / maintaining stuff they've no experience with (and training? Yeah, we've heard of that) make the entirely predictable errors that are the hallmarks of all humans, everywhere, throughout time", and IMNSHO, should be.
> "IDC concludes that organisations ought to apply a comprehensive risk management-based approach to information security, rather than firefighting security problems. "
Oh, wow, now I'm so worried, I obviously need to be worried about this threat.
> "Free whitepaper – Seven essential steps to achieve, measure and prove optimal security risk reduction"
Oh, what a lucky coincidence! Your advertisers just happen to have a solution to just this problem! I feel so privileged!
What you said. Thanks for typing it for me.
What are you asking them for?
Why do these surveys ask the "top executives"? Even if they are CIOs who actually have any kind of clue about IT, rather than being trough feeding pigs at the executive bonus party, then they'll rarely see the reality.
Rather when they get told about some incident, after many meetings amongst the lower orders, the story will be one of inadequate procedures and accidental finger trouble by a slightly incompetent peon. This is much better than a sub-department team leader having to fess up that they were responsible for actually delivering a piece of swiss-cheese rather than fort knox.
@Gannon (J) Dick
What about those who are both idiots and thieves - so somewhere between 100% and 200%.
As it happens I'm in the POC stage of a DJP project at the moment so it isn't exactly news.
largely money, and management incompetence
in the company i work for, whose applications I develop and support, user access rights are managed by a series of flags on people's user profile. It's pretty accurate and secure, and lets access be pretty well changed and defined by the business areas without IT intervention.
However, if you want to add a new flag to a profile, several different areas of the company have to coordinate and create it for us to check against. As this costs money, the managment who have sponsored the change usually rights it off as a bad idea and refuses to get the new flags added, leaving us to find some other way to restrict access. Usually only location is even vaguely suitable, as job roles aren't defined well enough to map onto functionality, which opens up features to many more people than should have access to them. Not in the least of which, we recently found out some idiot gave a load of people access to update their location details.
Massive security lapses, almost as a matter of course, purely so a manager can save a few thousand pounds on their project budget and cut their development/testing period down by a few weeks.
I've got a free solution too.
Brief your staff on security procedures and get them to understand the risks and penalties.
You can't expect individuals to find out for themselves, have you ever tried reading the DPA, RIPA, FOIA, and OSA, or the GPG's.
@Pete2, 20:28
You forgot to include the fact that senior management think that simply because they are in such lofty positions then security incidents can't happen to them or involve them. They therefore exploit their authority to insist on being exempt from the precautions they insist on for the plebs.
Re: uh...
>> Presumably this survey was done by someone that's never worked in IT.
>> I'm not disagreeing with it, it's just that its so blindingly obvious that I wouldn't have thought
>> anybody in the industry* would have had any other opinion of the users.
It isn't about what you know it is about what you can prove. At least now when you come across an idiot manager who can't see the blindingly obvious, at least you can beat them over the head with the survey.
>"It isn't about what you know it is about what you can prove. At least now when you come across an idiot manager who can't see the blindingly obvious, at least you can beat them over the head with the survey."
If your dealing with an incompetent manager who can't see the blindly obvious from evidence and experience from within their own department why do you think they will accept the results of a survey from outside the department?
what incompetence?
So the article states that:
***Accidental security incidents involving workers happen more frequently and have the greater potential for negative impact than malicious insider attacks, according to new research from RSA.***
In what way does this translate to incompetence? Who is supposedly incompetent and why? The discussion makes a lot of sense but the "conclusion" as presented in the title of the article does not. Yes I can understand perfectly that accidental security incidents may be the most common issue. However while some are the result of "incompetence" of users others are in my experience the results of the "security measures" being badly designed into the workprocess. Basically a lot of "accidental incidents" are only described as "accidental" because they were not intended as "incidents". However the issue is then that the incidents were designed into the system but not intended to be security incidents. What I mean is that for many people to be able to do their job COMPETENTLY they must bypass and ignore badly designed security (sic) procedures! Otherwise many professional users could not do their jobs competently! This ofcourse leads to the question stated earlier - what kind of competence and incompetence is the article author referring to? As I see it many incidents are due to the difference between what managers think that their professional and often competent employees are doing (formal description) and what those professional employees actually have to do to make things work appropriately! Old wisdom suggest that the best way to draw any organisation to a halt blindingly quickly is to ultimately enforce the prescribed formal procedures! There is a reason for why people need to be competent in the first place - e.g. real world problems are not solved by blindly following recipes without adapting them to situation and context. So the situation many professionals find themselves in is wether or not to strive to do a good job as a competent professional or wether to follow prescribed routines which sabotages any competent application of personal knowledge of the task at hand!
Hanlon's Razor again
For those who have forgotten the exact text of this puissant rule, which explains so much about human history and affairs:
"Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity".
As stupidity is far and away the commonest element in the universe (leaving hydrogen in a brave but totally outclassed second place), it is even more frequently encountered than malice.
What happens is...
When IT people who think they know what security is spend time firefighting security problems
Properly experienced Information security professionals take a "comprehensive risk management-based approach to information security" .
When IT management try to make security decisions that's when things really screw-up.
@it doesn't take a genius to figure it out....
Yep, have to agree. I work for a HUGE company with many, many disparate systems so I have many passwords to remember so I use KeePass, that way I can use strong, randomly generated passwords for the systems I need to access.
For my main domain log-on I use a real life word (7 letters long), spelled backwards with a "special" character followed by a number (OK so I'm lazy, change the password once a month, just increment the number!)
Main Domain logon is now enforced by our security group, the policy seems sensible at first view - Your new password must be 8 letters long and contain 3 of the folowing 4 items
1 Upper case letter
1 Lower case letter
1 "special" character
1 Number
So, my "old" insecure password - stceffa_1041 (not my real password obviously) is NOT allowed
But I can put in Pa$$word1, it really will accept that
Fucking Genius
@Peter 2 12:22 GMT
Unfortunately, yes.
Most (if not all) managers like fancy external reports so that they can have something shiny to show their own bosses. (Internal reports are also much detailed and show up too much dirt to be shown to higher-ups.) A fancy *IDC* report will persuade the stupid fuckers even though it doesn't actually say anything at all.
"conventional wisdom"?
"conventional wisdom that malicious insiders are the greatest single threat to an organisation."
That would be the "conventional wisdom" of anti-intrusion vendors then. And maybe this of the clueless managers dumb enough to listen to them. Everyone else knows very well that the only significant threat comes from legit users making a small mistake, then breaking their whole system trying to fix it "headless duck" style*, and then get the self-dubbed "wizz" in the next cubicle to bring half the department down trying to fix their computer.
The first step is usually some utterly minor change in some unimportant display setting, but the subsequent "headless duck" syndrome can break things pretty deep in the system, and the last "self-dubbed wizz" step usually spread the FUD. that's you end up with half a department whinning at your door for what was initially a change in Word's display of non-printable characters...
No-one needs an intruder when they have users.
Of course in some high-profile targets the intrusion risk is real, but that would be what, one millionth of the cases?
* hit every single button and change every option in a frantic manner

BU fraternity suspended after NH student's death
Tony Barksdale II, a freshman who graduated from Souhegan High School in Amherst, N.H., last year, was rushed to the hospital after being found unconscious in an off-campus apartment early Saturday. He died a few hours later.
Boston University Dean of Students Kenneth Elmore told university website BU Today that the Sigma Alpha Mu chapter's suspension followed "reports of underage drinking and severe intoxication" at an unregistered off-campus fraternity event.
Elmore said the fraternity's national organization has also suspended the BU chapter after the death of Barksdale.
"We need to find out what happened on Friday evening and determine if there was a policy violation and how bad that violation may have been," Sigma Alpha Mu national executive director Leland Manders told BU Today. "We will work in partnership with the university offices to determine if the chapter can continue in the future and under what circumstances it continues."

Brush categories
Painter Lite includes 16 Brush Categories and 97 Brush Variants to get you started painting. Watch our brush category videos to get an idea of what the variants look like.
Acrylic, Air Brushes and Artist brushes
Acrylic brush variants, much like their real world counterparts, are versatile brushes that let you apply quick-drying paints to the canvas.
Air brushes apply fine sprays of color, which carefully mirror the feel of a real airbrush in action.
Artist brush variants help you paint in the styles of master artists. For example, you can paint in the style of Vincent Van Gogh, with multi-shaded brushstrokes, or in the style of Georges Seurat, with multiple dots combining to form an image.
Chalk, pastels and crayons
Chalk brush variants produce the thick, rich texture of natural chalk sticks and have strokes that interact with the paper grain.
Pastel brushes, which range from hard pastel styles that reveal the paper grain, to extra soft pastels that glide on to completely cover existing strokes.
Basic Crayon produces textured strokes that interact with the paper grain, and the opacity of all the chalk, pastel and crayon brushes is linked to stylus pressure.
Erasers, F/X and Gouache
Eraser brush variants erase down to the paper color.
Bleach brush variants erase to white, gradually lightening by removing color.
F/X brush variants can give you an array of creative results. Some add color; others affect underlying pixels. The best way to appreciate the F/X brush variants is to experiment with them on an image and a blank canvas.
Gouache brush variants let you paint with the fluidity of watercolors and the opacity of acrylics, and the strokes cover underlying brushstrokes.
Oil brushes
Oil brush variants mimic their real world counterparts. The fine soft glazing strokes are semitransparent and can be used to produce a glazed effect. If you want to cover underlying brushstrokes with opaque paint, select the bristle oils and round camelhair. Plus, some Oil brush variants let you mix media as though you were working with traditional oil paints.
You can use colors mixed on the Mixer pad and apply them directly to the canvas with select variants. The colors can then be blended with the oils already on the canvas. Each brushstroke created with the oily bristle and thick wet oils variants load the brush with a finite amount of oil, which is then transferred to the image. As you apply a brushstroke to the canvas, the brush loses oil and the brushstroke becomes fainter.
Pencils, pens and sponges
Pencil brush variants are great for creating rough sketches to fine line drawings. Like their natural counterparts, Pencil brush variants interact with canvas texture. All of the variants build to black and link opacity to stylus pressure.
Pen brush variants includes Pen and Calligraphy brushe. Pen brush variants create realistic effects without the drawbacks of traditional pens, which can clog, spatter, or run dry.
Sponges let you create a variety of textures by applying the current paint color to cover or blend existing colors.
Impasto and markers
Impasto brush variants let you create the classic technique of applying thick paint on a canvas to create depth.
Marker brush variants replicate conventional, real-world markers. The brush variants range from fine point to blunt and have a variety of nib shapes and opacity levels and allow color buildup and pooling.
Digital Watercolor
Digital Watercolor brush variants produce watercolor effects that react with the canvas texture. The width of Digital Watercolor brushstrokes is affected by stylus pressure.
Sumi-E (Ink)
Sumi-e brush variants let you create flowing ink and wash painted brushstrokes.
Trendy tools and effects
Blenders and Palette Knives
Blenders affect underlying pixels by moving and mixing them. You can also use Palette Knife brush variants to scrape, push, or pick up and drag colors in your image.
Kaleidoscope Painting
Create electrifying kaleidoscope effects on canvas with this exciting tool that only exists in Painter! Use your choice of media to paint transfixing patterns and colors, using three to 12 mirrored planes.
Paper textures
10 paper textures
With traditional art media, the results from using different types of media depend on the texture of the surface to which it is applied. Choose from 10 different paper textures to create your masterpiece.
Canvas control and color selection and mixing
- Control Canvas size, paper type, color and rotation with ease
- Use the Effects menu to apply a surface texture to your canvas
- Add extra Layers as needed
- Choose from the Color Wheel, Color Mixer and Color sets for color selection
- Three special Mixer Pads included from Painter Masters Skip Allen, Greg Newman and Claudia Salguero

The Adams County Community Foundation's 5K Run-Walk Challenge will begin its third season on April 28 with the Run Over Violence at Adams Memorial Hospital, starting at 9 a.m.
The 2012 series will feature nine races (participants must complete seven to qualify for challenge awards):
• Run Over Violence on Saturday, April 28 in Decatur.,
• CG Sports - Run with Endurance 5K at 9 a.m. on Saturday, May 12 in Decatur.
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — Indiana's population will grow by 1 million to 7.48 million people by 2050 with most of the growth occurring in the Indianapolis-Carmel metropolitan area, according to projections from the Indiana Business Research Center.
Besides becoming much more urban than rural, the state will continue to grow grayer, with aging baby boomers increasing the over-65 share of the state population to 20 percent compared to 13 percent in 2010, according to the center based at Indiana University.
On Saturday, April 7, Bellmont High School will be hosting the county's first annual Coaches vs. Cancer Classic baseball games.
The games will include the Braves, Adams Central, and the Starfires of South Adams in a three-game format throughout the day. Each school will wear special t-shirts with their respective school colors and feature a large pink school logo on the front. All three teams will also be wearing pink and white wristbands and pink shoelaces. The t-shirts are designed by Minds Eye Graphics.
FORT WAYNE, Ind. (AP) — Some Indiana farmers have made a big donation to Fort Wayne's Food Bank.
WANE-TV reports (http://bit.ly/Hpp8nO) Midwest Poultry Services and Berne Hi-Way Hatchery donated more than 140,000 eggs to the agency on Wednesday.
A method of billing at the Adams Memorial Hospital for non-Medicare patients will be changed after hospital officials received a legal opinion from Indianapolis telling them it would be legal to do so.
Last year, the hospital began charging Medicare and non-Medicare patients who sought care from the offices of Dr. David Coats, Dr. Crystal Jencks, and Dr. Jessamine Hippensteel two separate fees, one of which was for professional services, and the second for a facility charge.
Gasoline prices reached what is believed to be an all-time high in Decatur on Wednesday, when prices jumped some 30 cents a gallon to $4.15 and $4.16.
Similar prices were seen in Fort Wayne.
Meanwhile, most experts expect higher prices as we move toward the peak summer driving season.
Prices rose to a nationwide average of $3.90 per gallon on Monday, having gone up 17 cents so far this month.
Glen E. Dubach, 89, Berne, died Wednesday at Adams Memorial Hospital.
Arrangements are pending at Yager-Kirchhofer Funeral Home, Berne.
Patricia A. Hain, 88, of Decatur, passed away on March 28, 2012, at Swiss Village Retirement Center.
She was born on November 8, 1923, in Decatur, to the late Fred and Esther (Sheets) McConnell.
She married Simeon J. Hain on July 29, 1945.
Patricia was a lifetime resident of Decatur and worked as a homemaker and the operating manager for the family business. She was a member of St. Mark's United Methodist Church and was also the past president of Tri Kappa Sorority.
Helen Neuenschwander, 84, of Berne, died Wednesday at Parkview Hospital.
Arrangements are pending at Yager-Kirchhofer Funeral Home in Berne.
What was intended to be the routine purchase of a new vehicle for the city police department is proving slightly more problematic than anticipated for Berne City Council.

5 Yummy Advantages Of Being Single During The Holidays
5. I had the freedom to skip Thanksgiving and go on vacation! With no one holding you back, you can opt to skip Thanksgiving entirely and go on vacation instead. Grab another single girlfriend and head to the Caribbean or someplace warm. Or, if you like winter sports, head for the mountains to go skiing and snowboarding. I tried this, too, and it was a wonderful time to get away.
So, free yourself from holiday traditions. Once you free yourself up from traditional ways to celebrate the holidays, the world is your oyster. You can do anything you want! Now isn't that a better perspective on being single than feeling sorry for yourself on Thanksgiving? Sure is!
Enjoy a generous slice of "gratitude pie" and most importantly, I recommend to all my dating coaching clients that they take time to remember what is working right in their lives. Everyone has so much to be grateful for when you give it some thought.
No matter what is going wrong, when you think about it, you can always find a few things that are truly a blessing in your life. Gratitude is the best slice of happiness you can create for yourself. So take a big helping of gratitude pie and enjoy yourself this Thanksgiving!

What is a wild card in tennis?
Asked by ashwin, 06 Jun '08 11:41 am

Answers (1)
In professional tennis tournaments, a wild card refers to a tournament entry awarded to a player at the discretion of the organizers. All ATP and WTA tournaments have a few spots set aside for wild cards in both the main draw, and the qualifying draw, for players who otherwise would not have made either of these draws with their professional ranking.Answered by samron jude, 06 Jun '08 11:42 am

Jonah Goldberg: Abortion is not 'women's health'
Why not? Maybe it's because whatever you think of abortion, the right to have one is not synonymous with a woman's health.
When I followed to the linked story, there was nothing about a spike in cervical or breast cancer rates. Nothing about occupational safety for female workers and no mention of female life expectancy either. Instead, the story was about how the ACLU says anti-abortion laws are on the rise across the country.
"You've got a state legislature up here that sometimes acts like it knows better than women when it comes to women's own health care decisions," the President said at a typical rally in New Hampshire during the last campaign. "You know, my opponent's got the same approach."
Conservatives want to leave it to women to make their own choices: about what to eat, whether to smoke, how fast they can drive, whether they can own a gun, etc. Many conservatives would also like to see women live long enough for the chance to make those decisions, rather than be snuffed out in utero.
But once you get beyond abortion, conservative public policies treat women like autonomous human beings capable of making their own choices - about health care or anything else.

Spent a few hours this morning walking around with my camera in Terra Cotta park in Pointe-Claire, Quebec while I was waiting for my daughter to finish one of her activities. I had never explored this park in depth, and three hours let me see a much bigger part of it than before.
Today is an absolutely beautiful fall day here around Montreal, and I am very glad I took advantage of it.
For a local stroll in the woods, it doesn't get much better than this!
