2008 Cadillac Escalade SUV 4dr SUV (6.2L 8cyl 6A)
THE GOOD ... Looks of the Escalade are second to none (eye catcher) ..... Powerful 6.2 motor (love the sound when I turn it on)THE BAD ... Horrible fuel mileage (barely 11mpg), plastic door handles (c'mon really??), Rear windows go down half way (sucks for rear passengers), Rear passengers are always hitting their feet exiting (seat adjustment needed), 3rd row seating ever worse (passengers knees hit their chest)THE UGLY ... Plastic (fake) wood grain interior panels are quick to get scratched and LOOKS horrible!!Overall I like my Escalade, just wished I purchased an ESV instead. Full rear doors(windows roll ALL the way down) 3rdrow seating has more leg room plus you have cargo space
As the owner and driver I am somewhat content with my Escalade which I purchased for on my birthday for 34,500 in August 2012. Powerful engine, interior, steering wheel functions, gps, onstar, bose radio all thumbs up!! Glad I didn't purchase this truck for 80k I would've been upset !!!!!
Don't think its worth 80k using a lot of plastic parts
1) Need better fuel economy
2) Needs an Ipod or aux jack (Tahoe & suburban cost less money and have it.... clueless as to why an $80k vehicle doesn't have it.
3) Needs Metal door handles
4) Needs more leg room even if compromises truck space on base model.
5) $80k and fake wood grain?
damn shame
Brought an 08 escalade drives OK not to clever around corners, and auto box has problems keeping up with engine sometimes. Build quality was the down fall and the reason I got rid of it, went for a LR3 Land rover instead much nicer to drive
auto tail gate, Onstar, comfort
build quality, build quality, better auto box and alarm
Bought the Escalade used, but feels like new. Finest vehicle we've ever owned; style matters. The Sequoia is ugly and so we took a chance on Cadillac and have not been disappoointed.
Style, spaciousness for family of 5, power, Bose stereo, and it floats on the highway.
Fuel economy (yeah right) and a couple of loose arm rests.
I loved the look of the new Escalade and alas that is all the car is. Just something good to look at. But it is a mechanical nightmare. This truck looks, drives and feels like it was put together in a hurry. I only have 2500 miles on it and the tranny bucks like a horse at least 3 times a day. Cadillac has reprogrammed some kind of computer but it keeps doing it and they say that there is nothing that they can do to fix it. It also idles very rough, the first month we had it it was fine and now it vibrates so badly at stop lights that it is embarrassing. Cadillac told me to use premium, I have and it still does it.Sometimes the power lift gate does not want to work. Should've gotten a 08 Sequoia
My favorite features would have to be the navigation system and the power lift gate.
Too many to list, so I'll go with a few, intelligent key, real wood, more comfortable seats, a DOHC engine..and a locking gas cap or fuel filler release lever would be greatly appreciated.
Cadillac is on a role, and the Escalade is no exception. It has great looks, lots of luxury and features, 403 hp, and an exhaust note from a muscle car. I never thought i would buy and SUV, but the Escalade sold itself. The power and exhaust note surprised me most as it is quick (for and SUV), and sounds great. The handling also really surprised me as it handles like a much smaller car. The only negatives i can fin is the old school tilt only steering wheel, third row seat ( everything about it from room to not power folding), and a light in the rear of the car rattles. The GPS in this car is absolutely fantastic, it is the highlight of an already great interior. Just a great SUV.
Power, exhaust note, handling, looks, features, interior, GPS, and the seat heaters are incredible!
Everything about the third row, needs to fold flat and get more room in front of and behind it. and needs to have power telescoping steering wheel

Hello I am a soldier currently in Iraq. No I'm not special forces, I'm Signal Corp. I dont get to do anything too glamourous but I do have regular internet access seeing its my job to make sure it works. I'm on the tail end of a 15 month tour. Been saving up quite a bit of money over here and will finally be able to buy most of the firearms I've been dreaming about once I get back. I dont hunt but have a CCL in Washington state and am into defensive and combat style firearms. Been lurking here awhile, about time said hello.

Me and my wife just got our carry permits. I carry a S&W 6906 9mm or my S&W airweight 38special,and my wife sports a springfield xd 9mm subcompact. We are taking some advanced shooting classes so my wife will be comfortable carrying. If anybody knows if the 15 round mag from a 5906 will work in my 6906 I would like to know,3 extra rounds would be nice.

Glock 17

Greetings all;
My name is Tom, I have heard of this site, but, I have never ventured here untill about a week ago.
I am a regular reader and sometimes poster on K.A.B.A., I was a member on Packing.org untill the trolls took over and the site shut down.
I am in my 50's I have been shooting since I was about 5, with my father, on a Pennsylvania garbage dump, (man that seems like forever ago).
I was a class 1 dealer untill the brady bill put me out of bussiness, (hobby dealers didn't stand a chance with that crap).
I live in northeast Ohio, And MAN! am I glad that spring is finally here.
Looking forward to a long, Enjoyable membership here, From what I have seen so far, This seems like a very well run website.

Hello everyone,
I have been lurking here for a few months but did not sign up until recently. I found THR when I was researching carry laws. Both my wife and I have our CCWs. She carries a SigPro SP2022 while I have a Sig P226R. I fired many an M16, GPMG and other guns when I was in the Singapore army but that was over 20 years ago. We now live in Minnesota and look forward to becoming active in the gun community.

Hi, my name is __________ and I have an addiction to guns, when ever I go in to a gun shop I always leave with a gun in DROS(I'm in Ca. and that is our clearing house). In the last year I've bought 10 new handguns and done 8 PPT's.
No I do not want to be cured, I want to be able to buy them like they do in the free parts of the continent. Please send me money to buy more, I promise to share, really.
Any way glad to be here looks like a lot of like minded folks, lets keep it rollin'.

Hello Everybody,
I stumbled onto this site by mistake and Man, am I glad. Very cool stuff.
I am just a simple man who loves to Shoot, Surf, Practice Martial Arts and spend time trying to raise a family.
I load all my rounds, with the exception of shotgun shell but I may look into it in the future. I like to practice with my bow as well but as I have edged to the better part of my 30's, time seems to be my most valueable commodity because I just don't have enough of it. Once I can figure out how, I will post pics of my loading bench, very humble, only 4 presses, a couple of single stage and a couple of progressive...
Anyhow... I like it here.
Have a good one.

Hey Guys,
I'm from California as well. I'm 26 and was raised around guns. I enjoyed guns the most till like 2004. Since 2004 I have not been able to enjoy them as much. For events and crisis out of my control, guns were put on hold. I been doing some shooting as of late.
Firearms that I own
70 Series Colt National Match-Blue
Colt 38 Super 80 Series-Blue
Colt 45 80 Series-Blue
Springfield 38 Super-Nickel
Springfield 38 Super-Parkerize
RIA 38 Super
Rossi 357 Magnum
I also own a couple long arms. I screwed up the bolt assembly of my Savage 111 rifle. That was my debut thread here. So if you could help out, I would appreciate it.
Don't know what else to say, see ya around.

very happy to have the resource available. I joined awhile back but have to date only used the site as a reference tool.
Handguns. Lot's of handguns over the years. I find myself now spending more time looking to replace the guns I sold or traded away over the years. This is proving more and more diffcult here in California as I have not found a consistent way to find a great many guns for ppt or on consignment. I can think of a dozen right now I'd buy if I could find them.
Don't let this happen in your state!
Recently I have become intersted in
nice bolt action 22 rifles and having the guns I own lightly customized.

Hey folks, I've been a guest on here awhile without posting but wanted to introduce myself. I'm not a gun owner yet, since I'm only a high school senior in a non-gun-owning family. Always nice to see people with class on the Internet.

Sayin hi from the Alamo City!
Noob here! I've been lurking a while and finally decided to post. It's nice o find a place where the RKBA is discussed with an open mind as to different peoples opinions, especially social and political . Some of the other forums, while there is a wealth of technical information to be found on this or that gun, if you are not a hardcore right-winger you can find the climate downright hostile!

"Well, our kids have been working on a fearless mindset, and to do that you have to fill it with something," said Coach Anae. "If you fill it with nothing fear ends up being in there, so that's what we've been working on as a program and as a team; filling it with things that we are looking forward to doing. That's the mindset that we're taking."
The season open against Virginia last year saw a disruption due to rain delay. Coach Anae isn't worried about a similar occurrence this year, but if there is such a delay he isn't worried.
"Well, it's the mindset that we're talking about it is focusing on the moment and the task at hand, so, yeah, if we happen to have bad weather we'll pause while the bad weather occurs," Coach Anae said. "Then take the field when it's available, so it's the focus on the moment, and we've made that a conscientious effort and grow as a program in that regard."
From the sound of things, BYU will be more ready this year than they were last year against Virginia for their season opener against UConn next Friday night.
Cougar Cam: Robert Anae
Coach Anae addresses the media as the Cougars prepare for the Huskies of UConn. He talks about the team's preparation and how the staff is working hard to know what to prepare for when the Cougars take the field. He talks about the efforts by the offense to score in a more proficient way, Taysom Hill, and much, much more.

text: Hi, We have now looked at this patch and there are a couple of issues remaining which have to be solved. The patch changes the representation of the abstract format which has a couple of implications: * Any parse transform which uses the line number position might brake when this new option (this could include OTP parse transforms) * Any tool which depend on having an integer as the line number position will break (syntax tools might be one such tool) In order to mitigate this backwards incompatibility, we suggest making the line/column number an opaque datatype which is only accessible via an api and update the documentation to reflect this. In addition all of the different warnings/errors in erl_lint and friends have to be checked with the new column number so that they point to the correct position. Also the erl_lint, epp and any other suite which deal with error messages/warnings have to be updated to run tests with and without this option. I'm sure that I've forgotten some things which have to be done. This is a major change and will take some time to get correct. I hope I have not deterred you from getting this patch into the Erlang/OTP. If you have any questions about anything I will do what I can to help you.

HOW do you do it?!
I want to know what others have to say on this too because my LO has been home since last Wednesday and I have no idea how to not check constantly either. As far as sleep goes, we got NO sleep the first night because every time Ezra made a sound or didn't make any sounds we checked on him. So now I sleep from 9 p.m. to 3 a.m. and DH sleeps from 3-9.
Mama to Ezra (9/16/12, 31+0, 66 days in NICU) & Asher (3/20/15, 39+6 via VBAC!)
All I can say is it gets easier with time lol. I did the same thing for weeks, but the longer he was home the more comfortable I got. Now he sleeps for 12 hours every night in his own room, I go check on him once or twice but it's not nearly as bad as it used to be.
Wife. Registered Nurse. Mommy to my former 1lb 12oz 28 week preemie.
I wish we could have co-slept, he HATED it lol. Now he won't even sleep in his carseat or in our arms. He can only sleep when it's quite and he has a place to stretch out :)
Wife. Registered Nurse. Mommy to my former 1lb 12oz 28 week preemie.
First of all, congrats on having him home. Secondly, it's perfectly normal to keep checking on him, in the NICU you had the comfort of the machines telling you everything is ok, now you have only yourself to depend on. It will last from a few days to a few weeks. For me it was a very difficult 2 weeks. When he moves you check, when he doesn't you still check, lol. We coslept at the very beginning, then he moved to his pack n play next to us. We're contemplating moving to the crib soon. But the longer he's more, the more comfortable and confident you get and the easier it will all get. Now I hardly check on him unless he wakes himself. GOOD LUCK
Renee (Me) & Robbie (DH)
Aidan (5/18/05 - 41w) - Eleanor (11/10/12 - 32w2d)
I still check on my lo who is 5 months and 3 months adjusted alot but he came home on a heart monitor for the first 2 months I knew that he was ok. Now there were 2 times that I forgot to plug it in and it went off and that scared me alot but it was nice to know he was ok. He still sleeps in my room next to the bed but he also still eats almost every 3 hours so its easier that way.

We got the angelcare monitor -- it's the only way I can sleep in my room when he's in his crib. Otherwise, we co-sleep like others have mentioned, too.

The exhibition includes a selection of highlights of recent acquisitions in the area of French drawings. The earliest is a rare portrait drawing of King Louis XIII by Simon Vouet (1580–1649), a leading painter of the French Baroque. The eighteenth century is represented in a sparkling sheet of studies for a fête galante by Nicolas Lancret (1690–1743) and by the recently rediscovered première pensée for Jean-Baptiste Greuze's L'Accordée de village (Musée du Louvre, Paris). Louis Lafitte's windswept Portrait of a Man of 1793 anchors a group of male portraits of the Neoclassical and early Romantic periods.
The rotation also includes a selection of nineteenth-century drawings, prints, and books illustrating religious themes by German and Austrian artists, who, inspired by Italian old masters and their own deep faith, renewed the art of their home countries. Among the works on view are some given to the museum in the early decades of the collection's history, as well as many recent acquisitions.
Also on view from the nineteenth century are a group of prints and drawings that depict variations on the theme of crowds, with examples by Félix Vallotton (1865–1925), James Ensor (1860–1949), and Francisco de Goya (1746–1828). Finally, a selection of portrait drawings by Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres (1780–1867) and Théodore Chassériau (1819–1856) rounds out the exhibition; all were recently acquired as part of a generous gift to the Museum from Mrs. Charles Wrightsman.

Rula Lenska films final scenes on Coronation Street
In an interview with today's Mirror, it says that Claudia leaving the show will pave the way for Audrey and Marc to get together, as rumoured in Corrie's summer spoilers.
Rula says the door's being left open for Claudia to return to the cobbles, which, I think, is good to hear. She's fitted in really well and I'll be sorry to see her go.
And as Rula leaves the show, our blogger Merseytart wonders who'll be next in line to wear the Corrie Cougar Crown? Could it really be the Shake n Vac woman?

I'm sad to see Claudia go I've enjoyed her scenes with Audrey and I hope she does return in the future.
- 15 June 2011 at 11:05
Too bad they didn't have her try it on with Norris...just to watch him sputter and squirm would have been hilarious.
- 15 June 2011 at 12:24
I must be in the minority, but I couldn't abide her voice or her. Now if she could drag Marc off the street with her I'd be happy.
- 15 June 2011 at 17:57
It was ridiculous to have bagged a great actress like Rhula, not to use her. I am just sorry she didnt take over the Rovers. Pity Claudia isnt taking the rather boring cheesy grinning whistling Marc with her.
- 16 June 2011 at 07:18
I thought Claud had gone already.

We enjoyed our stay at Turning Waters immensely. This was a surprise birthday gift for my husband, so I wanted a B & B that catered more to his style and tastes. Upon arrival we were greeted by Brenda and Ford, offered a sampling of their wonderful beers and had a lively conversation getting to know each other. The home and décor is refreshingly masculine. We spent hours of our evening in the living room/den. Very comfortable and relaxing space. Loved the beauty of the woodwork throughout the house. Our bed was spacious and extremely comfortable for a wonderful night of sleep. Breakfast was delicious. Brenda's natural ability to spark conversation kept the table chatting. All over this was a terrific stay, highly recommended and we will enjoy coming back for another stay!

We are so glad you both enjoyed our home and of course Ford's homebrew beer. I'm never one to just sit still and let people feel uncomfortable around the table, plus there is always history of the house, our town, by the way, did you know Wabasha is the oldest city in Minnesota! We look forward to seeing you again soon. Brenda & Ford

My husband and I spent three glorious nights in The River Room Suite. The suite was spacious, peaceful & relaxing. This stunningly beautiful inn was immaculate, warm and welcoming. Plenty of easily accessible parking. Brenda and Ford were friendly, fascinating and extremely helpful. They had a way of making us feel at home as if we were family. The breakfasts are absolutely delicious! The best breakfasts we have ever enjoyed at a B & B! Special attention was made to every detail. Fresh and wholesome ingredients, clean local meats and healthy balanced nutrition. We had three perfect nights sleep on a very comfortable bed with very soft linens. It was hard to leave this beautiful and peaceful place! We will definitely be back!

My sincere apologies for not responding sooner. Thank you for taking the time to review our home and we enjoyed having you stay with us. We look forward to dazzling you with more delicious meals the next time you visit your family here in Wabasha. Until then, be safe, have fun and stay healthy. Brenda & Ford

My BFF and I needed an escape from our hectic "take care of everybody else but ourselves" lives and Turning Waters B&B really fit the bill. We stayed two (2) nights . . . both rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the breakfasts was fantastic! We visited the National Eagle Center where we learned several "fun facts" and watched the eagles soar over the Mississippi River for several hours. Downtown Wabasha is small, but several local restaurants and shops gave us enough variety for our short vacation! I can't wait to visit again with my husband, as I'm told Turning Waters is planning to open a small brew pub soon!
Respuesta del propietario
We are so happy to hear you enjoyed our home and the surroundings that compliment our home. We would love to have you back and your hubby or friends too:) The National Eagle Center is a magnificent place to visit and we are working on the brew pub. We homebrew for free sampling until it is in place. See you soon on the next visit. Cheers. Brenda & Ford

Wow, we can't even begin to describe how WONDERFUL our stay was here at the Turning Waters Bed, Breakfast, and Adventure! When we picked a B & B in Wabasha, we weren't sure what to expect. When we turned the corner, and we saw this BIG, beautiful house - we were pleasantly surprised! We were greeted by Brenda, who gave us a quick tour, showed us the Coniferous Suite, and asked us if we would like a beer tasting - they are brewing their own beer. We did our tasting, met the other people in the house - instant family! The rooms are beautiful and there isn't a bad one in the bunch. There are perks to staying in the suites, but the regular rooms are wonderful, too. Every room has it's own bathroom. They write the names of the guests on the doors, so you know who your neighbors are. You can sit and enjoy movies with the guests, OR, you can spend time in your own room...we did a little bit of both when we weren't out exploring the area. The next few days were so much fun that we ended up booking one more night, and at one point, we were the only people at the B & B - and Brenda even made us a pizza with some of the breakfast leftovers - smoked salmon, gouda cheese - YUM! We were able to enjoy complimentary wine, beer, and even helped out a bit in the kitchen (because we wanted to, not because we were asked to). The service was amazing - the breakfasts were incredible (they use local, organic, nitrate-free, meats, etc., and everything is made from scratch)! The yogurt parfait was the best I've ever had....and I kept going back for more fresh apple cider and coffee....and every day there was fresh fruit/baked goods on the table. By the time we left, we felt like family! Do yourself a favor and stay at this bed and breakfast - you will NOT be disappointed. We WILL be going back! Thank you, so much, Brenda and Ford, for your hospitality and welcoming us / taking such good care of us in your beautiful home.

First let me apologize for the untimely response. Second, we are super excited you enjoyed yourself on your stay and we do remember you fondly:) It was an epic time with you in the house and we appreciate your new friendship since then. The yummy food is a staple and so is the awesome beer. Come see us again soon and thanks again for sharing your experience. Cheers Brenda & Ford

My husband and I chose the River Room Suite for a weekend stay. This is an old Victorian house renovated to be very contemporary, which turned out beautifully. Bedding was so comfortable. I had asked about breakfast in our room which was no problem at all. Only drawback here was no table/chairs in the room to sit at. This was truly minor. Food was brought up on a nice stand and there is comfy seating in the room. We chose to eat in the dining room on the second morning which was great too. Michael was a personable, generous host. The best thing about the whole weekend were the breakfasts! These were some of the best we've ever had and we've probably been to close to a hundred B and B's. Creme brulee oatmeal, gorgeous fresh fruit, sausages to die for, and cinnamon twist bacon. MMMMM Also fresh organic milk and juice to wash it all down. There were only two things I would suggest for improvement and these are relatively minor. This B and B does not have satellite/cable. I would presume this is to promote a relaxing stay- which worked for us- but we also like to be able to watch TV in quiet without the kids interrupting. The other thing which might be beyond their control is that we were able to hear everything going on downstairs from in our room. Most likely the result of the old house where everything echoes throughout. Neither of these things hindered our weekend and I would most DEFINITELY go back for another stay. I would highly recommend this bed and breakfast to any couples looking for quality time together or just an overall quiet, relaxing getaway.
Respuesta del propietario
Thank you for your review and as the new owner, I will continue the amazing breakfasts and we are in the process of adding cable to our 1912 home. As for the noise, we are adding fans and air systems to keep our home allergen free and the white noise will keep the sound level from carrying. We are improving the property as well by adding a nano-brewery brew pub so come back and check us out. Cheers

Earlier in my career, I had the privilege of working closely with two faculty members who cared deeply about issues of universal design. They came from different but complementary perspectives. One was a professor of special education, and the other was a professor of occupational therapy. It took me years of working and talking with them (I was their Assistant Dean), but I finally "got it": good design intended to benefit those with special needs improves the effectiveness of software and digital content for everyone.
This did not come easily for me, in part because my listening skills had not evolved to the level needed to be fully effective. In other words, I thought that I knew far more than I really did. I'd like to share here what finally got my attention, in the hope that others might be able to skip a few of the more painful missteps I took on my journey to awareness.
Several years ago, I sponsored a project at another campus to deploy web kiosks ubiquitously. The purpose was to provide general access to web services for students, faculty and staff, and visitors. As part of my "leadership" of this project, I cautioned my staff that they should not forget to ensure that at least one kiosk in multi-kiosk locations was accessible. And then I walked away, feeling pleased with myself about my elevated sense of "doing the right thing." I did not engage deeply to ensure that my staff had subject-matter expertise or at least access to subject-matter expertise. Fast forward: after the project was complete, one of my two faculty friends who had tried to develop my commitment to accessibility issues asked if he could meet with CIO Office leaders and show us a video that some of his students had made as a class project.
It turned out that the video showed a person who was in a wheelchair and was trying to use one of our kiosks. To say the experience of watching this video was painful would be an understatement. I did not look around the room as the video was shown. I can't attest for everyone else, but partway through the video I realized that I was having a little trouble seeing because of my misty eyes. There were numerous barriers presented to the individual in the wheelchair, even though the kiosk had been installed at "wheelchair height." Yet the faculty member knew that making the kiosk difficult to use was not our motivation; it was a result of our execution and my own well-intended leadership. He did not lecture us. He simply wanted us to "feel" what the process was like for people who had significant barriers standing in their way.
Compassionately delivered, this message has stuck with me ever since. It is not enough to have good intentions. It was not enough for me to issue some goals and then walk away without providing guidance. It is not enough to retro-fit a project after it has been executed. If you truly respect all members of your campus community, you need to get services right the first time.
What does this mean? I suggest four action items:
- Action item 1. When meeting with vendors of software that is delivered through the web, and when hiring web developers, let them know that your institution is committed to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) and give them the WCAG link so that they can learn more. The standard for accessibility of content on the web, WCAG states that its goal is to provide "a single shared standard for web content accessibility that meets the needs of individuals, organizations, and governments internationally."
- Action item 2. When meeting with software vendors, inform them that your institution expects products to be designed, from the outset, with the Section 508 Amendment to the Rehabilitation Act in mind. Let them know that this is not optional but is a basic expectation of your institution.
- Action item 3. When meeting with publishers, tell them that you expect content to be delivered in a way that is compatible with the twelve guidelines of WCAG 2.0. These twelve guidelines are organized under four principles: perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust. Let publishers know that you also expect adherence to evolving standards (WCAG 3.0 is emerging now) and encourage them to engage in the dialogue as new standards develop.
- Action item 4. When chartering a project, ensure that best practices related to accessibility—and consultation/engagement with true subject-matter experts on your campus—are baked in to the requirements and the project plan.
Getting things right the first time is all about requirements and design. Yes, in the beginning we will still need to do some retrofitting as we build awareness and a culture of "no compromise" moving forward. This requires that we work together respectfully as we transition toward a future in which accessible design is a normal part of what we and our partners do as we create new innovations. The Internet2 NET+ initiative is the perfect laboratory for us to do this because their leadership demonstrably cares about accessibility, and the I2 community has the scale to influence the marketplace. In addition, we in libraries and information technology need to engage with the campus office that represents those who need our services to be accessible. We must move beyond good intentions into purposeful action with real subject-matter experts. Doing so will result in what it has taken me years to learn: designing for those with special needs results in services that are better designed for everyone. And ultimately, we will spend less of our precious budgets by doing it right, from the beginning.

In this exercise I'm going to take you on a whirl wind tour of the blend modes that are available to you here inside the Layers palette. Now I'm not going to promise that by the end of this exercise you are going to have a complete understanding of how each and every blend mode works. In fact, you most definitely won't, but you will have a sense for the way that the blend modes are grouped, and then we'll visit the specific blend modes in future exercises. All right, I'm working inside this image called With outer glow.psd, found inside the 17_blend_ modes folder, and I'm going to go ahead and reduce the Fill Opacity of my statue to 75%, by pressing Shift+75, like so, and that goes ahead and reduces the opacity of the statue without affecting the outer glow. And you can see the Fill Opacity value right there.
All right, now let's check out the blend modes. Now, the whole idea of the blend modes is that they specialized mathematical equations, not terribly complicated ones. They are actually fairly simple arithmetic formulas, but they use these equations in order to calculate how the active layer blends with the layers below it. Now, even though the math is not all that complicated, if Photoshop was to just spew the mathematical formulas at you, it wouldn't do most people very much good, and in fact, even if you are comfortable with math, I'm not sure it would help you anticipate what's going to happen necessarily.
So instead they have gone ahead, and given each blend mode a name that is supposed to sort of help you out, but in truth, it's very difficult to get a sense for what the blend modes are going to do based on the name. For example, what in the world does hard light do? What does linear light do? What does linear light even mean? What's a Pin Light? And so on, and so what you tend to do if you are feeling adventurous is you try out a blend mode, and you go, Gosh, that's pin light. What do you know, don't want that effect? Let's try. Gosh, maybe vivid light is going to do me better, and then you look at it, and go, oh you know, that's not what I'm looking for either, and then pretty soon you hang it up and you say, yeah, normal is good enough, that will work.
So that's what I want to make sure doesn't happen to you. I don't want you to just feel frustrated by the whole affair and just give up on it, because these guys can be very, very useful. Now, what's more telling the names of the specific modes at this point is how they are grouped, because they are grouped logically. You see these horizontal lines that are dividing up the groups of blend modes, and what we are going to do inside this exercise is visit each of the groups. All right, so starting with normal, we know normal. Normal is going to mix the image according to the opacity and fill opacity values and nothing else.
Dissolve is a little different. Now, I'll go ahead and choose Dissolve and then we'll zoom in on the statue's head here. Actually let's take it to 200%, and you can see that rather than seeing translucent pixels, the way we did with normal, instead we are seeing either opaque pixels or transparent pixels. So with the Fill Opacity value set to 75%, and this would be the same if the opacity value were set to 75%. We are seeing 75% of the pixels and the other 25% of the pixels are turning transparent on a random basis here, according to a diffusion dither pattern, just so as you know what this thing is called.
Anyway, what it ends up looking like is a kind of rash at this point, sort of a pixel-based rash. So I wouldn't recommend this effect applied to a layer like this one here. Let's go ahead and scroll the face over a little bit, where you might find it useful. I'm going to go ahead and change the mode back to normal, and I'm going to double-click on the outer glow because all of these blend modes are also applicable to your layer effects. So instead of having the blend modes set to screen, let's try setting it to Dissolve, and you will now see this sort of scattered pattern going on right here. Thanks to the Dissolve mode, combined of course with the signs value, and the blur, and everything else that is going on. This is will be my only discussion of the Dissolve effect inside of this series. So I'm going to go ahead and zoom back out, so that we can see more of the statue at a time.
Now then let's try out the other modes. Not all of them, just the groupings at this point, and we'll come back to the specific modes inside of the groups in future exercises. This next group right here, darken through darker color, they are all going to darken the image. So your four most darkening function I'll tell you right now is multiply, and it will give you this effect here of darkening the statue into the sky below it. So you are always going to get a darker effect. If you want a lighter effect instead, then you would go to the next group. All of these modes lightened through lighter color go ahead and lighten the image, and your first and foremost and best mode is screen, in which case you'll get this brightening effect right there. If you want a combination of both, both brightening and darkening, then you would switch to these modes right there. These are your contrast modes overlay through hard mix, and your best mode of the bunch here is overlay, and it's going to produce a heightened contrast effect, sort of as if you were tattooing one image on to another, and we'll learn more about those later.
These next guys right here, Difference and Exclusion, are kind of oddball modes. What they do is they use one image to invert another image. So if I apply Difference, we are going to get the psychedelic effect, where the statue is concerned, and then finally, we have hue through luminosity which express the image using a completely different color model that's known as the Hue/Saturation Luminosity color model, the HSL model, and color for what its worth is the combination of hue and saturation working together.
So for example, if I chose the color mode right here, I would keep the colors that are associated with the statue and blend them in with the luminance level, so brightness values that are associated with the sky below. If I wanted the opposite effect, because after all, that looks terrible, if I wanted to keep the colors of the sky and mix in the brightness values of the statue, I would choose luminosity instead. So that's your World Wind Tour my friends. In the next exercise I'm going to show you a few blend mode shortcuts. Stay tuned.

Ticket: $55 (includes lunch & signed book)
In The Human Age ($27.95), a landmark new book by Diane Ackerman, she confronts the unprecedented fact that the human race is now the single dominant force of change on the planet. Humans have "subdued 75 percent of the land surface, concocted a wizardry of industrial and medical marvels, strung lights all across the darkness." We now collect the DNA of vanishing species in a "frozen ark," equip orangutans with iPads, create wearable technologies and synthetic species that might one day outsmart us. Ackerman takes us on an exciting journey to understand this bewildering new reality, introducing us to many of the people and ideas now creating-perhaps saving-our future. The Human Age is a beguiling, optimistic engagement with the earth-shaking changes now affecting every part of our lives and those of our fellow creatures-a wise book that will astound, delight, and inform intelligent life for a long time to come.
Diane Ackerman has been the finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Nonfiction in addition to many other awards and recognitions for her work, which include the best-selling The Zookeeper's Wife and A Natural History of the Senses.
Book Passage hosts literary luncheons with celebrated authors at our Marin store. These events are catered by the outstanding Insalata's Restaurant of San Anselmo. The price includes lunch and an autographed book.

Humans have "subdued 75 percent of the land surface, concocted a wizardry of industrial and medical marvels, strung lights all across the darkness." We tinker with nature at every opportunity; we garden the planet with our preferred species of plants and animals, many of them invasive; and we have even altered the climate, threatening our own extinction.
