Walcom has turned the world upside down for artists with the introduction of its Wacom Inkling pen. The “old school” workflow for artists meant those who worked in analog format prior to digitizing their work required a further scanning process. But now with the Inkling, you’re able to work digitally and analogously in the same step as the pen, and a sensor records all the necessary movements which can then be transferred to your computer. For more details, watch the video below which presents the various features of the Inkling.

A law that would toughen penalties for drivers caught texting or talking without a hands-free device on their cellphones has landed on Gov. Jerry Brown’s desk.

The measure, SB 28, was authored by state Sen. Joe Simitian (D-Palo Alto), and grew out of what he thinks is the success of similar laws he wrote and that have taken effect, according to a statement.

“While the numbers show that compliance is good and that California’s hands-free law is working, we can do better and save even more lives,” said Simitian, following the bill’s passage.

Simitian cites research by the AAA Automobile Club of Southern California and the California Office of Traffic Safety, which suggest that the state’s hands-free driving law maintains 60-70 percent compliance.

The aim of the bill is to boost that number by increasing fines for motorists who use cell phones illegally. Simitian joined CHP officers during a statewide crackdown in April.

Here’s a breakdown of the proposed new law:

• Increase the base fines for violation of the hands-free cellphone and texting-while-driving laws from $20 to $50 for a first offense, and from $50 to $100 for subsequent offenses.

• Make a violation of the hands free cellphone law, the texting law, or the teen safety law a driver’s license “point” on a second or subsequent offense.

• Apply these distracted-driving laws to bicyclists at a lower total fine level of $20 for a first offense, and $50 for each subsequent offense.

• Use a portion of the increased fine revenue to establish and fund a cellphone-related distracted-driving education program in the Office of Traffic Safety.

• Allow the state to qualify for anticipated federal funding on cellphone-related distracted driving.
