Unfortunately, the B5 is not available in North America currently.
A great set of real life comparison photos between the F30 and F10, by Paul Tan.
Although the general styling of the newest 3 series and 5 series is now more consistent and shares more styling cues than the previous generation E90 and E60, there are still significant differences (in particular the front end) between the two designs as these photos highlight.
Here's the tale of the tape for the F30 and F10:
Height – 56.3 in
Length – 182.5 in
Width – 71.3 in
Wheelbase – 110.6 … CONTINUED
Here are the official pricing guides for the 2013 3 Series Coupe (E92) and Convertible (E93) [download PDFs inside].
The pricing listed in the guides are effective July 1, 2012.
Here are the complete changes for the 2013 5 series sedan and GT. The biggest change for the F10 sedan will be the introduction of the BMW Individual Composition Package (ZL1). Full July production changes can be found inside.
New optional feature for all BMW 5 Series: individualised cockpit thanks to multifunction instrument display.
An optional feature [from July] that will enhance operation of the automobile in all BMW 5 Series models (except BMW 520d EfficientDynamics Edition and BMW ActiveHybrid 5): the multifunction instrument display. This is a freely programmable cockpit display that introduces a new dimension to driver information. Enhanced Black Panel technology opens completely new possibilities for the display of information. Via the high-grade, homogeneous black surface of the 10.25-inch display, the freely combinable … CONTINUED
Watch the new turbo 4 cylinder 528i take on the old 6 cylinder 528i in a head to head race and dyno, conducted by Classic BMW.
The 2012 528i features the N20 turbo 4 cylinder engine which is quoted at 240hp/260lb-ft torque, 0-60 in factory quoted 6.2sec and is 15% more fuel efficient.
The previous F10 528i was powered by the N52 6 cylinder engine which had 240hp/230lb-ft torque and ran from 0-60 in factory quoted 6.6sec. And although the two engines are factory rated at the same … CONTINUED

The results? The Hartge engineers were able to record a 80kmh (50mph) to 180kmh (110mph) run in just 7.2 seconds. Delvek's previously stock 550i took 11.4 seconds to reach the same speed!

The BMW 5 Series will turn the big 30 this year and BMW has a special edition F10 to mark the occassion. The 528i 30th Anniversary Edition has just gone on sale in Japan.
Only 200 of these 528i 30th Anniversary Edition F10s will come off the line. It's powered by BMW's inline 6 3.0L motor (not the 4 cylinder turbo N20 motor).
This deep sea blue metallic 528i is packaged with the M sport package, BMW Individual aluminum window trim, Veneto Beige dakota leather, Satin Walnut Wood … CONTINUED
Frozen Matte Gray and Frozen Matte Black paint options were made available to European customers beginning this past March for the F10 5 series, which represents the first time that BMW has offered the matte paint option for non-M cars. It is an option only for F10/F11 M-sport packaged cars. As these photos show, the matte finish looks great on the F10, but it doesn't come cheap. The matte gray and matte black options cost over 3,000 euros.
5POST member IE92 decks out his F10 528i with 3D Design parts, OEM parts, and other custom modifications. Coupled with the photography skills of jzhang, the result is a beautiful photoshoot.
While others are speculating what to expect from the new BMW M5 coming later this year, the German Autozeitung didn't waste its time guessing about the future but rather attended to the hottest F10 5er to date, the Alpina B5 Biturbo. Ingredients? To name just a few, 4.4L V8 Biturbo rated at 507hp and 700NM, 8-speed automatic, and limited slip differential (optional).
The outcome? As Autozeitung puts it, the Alpina B5 is the "best and most powerful F10 5er to date." They praise the "felicitous combination … CONTINUED
Edmunds has pitted the 2011 550i (F10) against the 2011 Infiniti M56. Both are mid-sized sedans powered by powerful V8 motors. Does the M56 have what it takes to unseat the 5-series as the gold standard in the mid-size sedan category? See the review for the verdict.
Jzhang brings some highly stylized photos from the first 5POST meet to us. We previously posted these photos, but not in this stunning of a look.

Jake Gardiner to make season debut tonight
Cam Charron
January 23 2013 02:36PM
We knew yesterday that Jake Gardiner, now certified concussion-free, was going to be tagging along with the Toronto Maple Leafs to Pittsburgh, but unclear as to whether or not he'd play.
Gardiner, who had been skating on his own for about a week, took some contact in Tuesday's practice and said he felt fine. The coaching staff will not make a decision on a decision whether he will play until after consulting with doctors later in the day.
Once he gets the green light, head coach Randy Carlyle said he would not hesitate to throw Gardiner in the lineup.
Evidently, the green light was given earlier this afternoon. Sportsnet's David Alter was the first to report that the young defenceman will, in fact, make his season debut tonight against the Penguins in place of Korbinian Holzer, who will be sent down to the Toronto Marlies.
Preview: Game #3 Leafs @ "Hockey Mecca"
Cam Charron
January 23 2013 11:57AM
The Pittsburgh Tribune woke us up this morning, apparently, to tell us that Hockey's Mecca is no longer any of the towns connected by the traffic-infested Southern Ontario freeways converging unto the region professional hockey grew out of, once upon a time.
For those of us who grew up with the sport, we also grew up with tomes on our coffee tables outlining the history of the game. Though the pictures in those books were black and white, the striping patterns and logos on the uniforms were familiar. The simple and distinct patterns remain unchanged since the Original Six era began in 1942.
In the Original Six era, the Toronto Maple Leafs and Montreal Canadiens each won the Stanley Cup 10 times. No other team came close. There are no two cities hosting professional hockey that can even begin to claim similar history or importance is the establishment of the modern NHL.
Except, evidently, Pittsburgh, where the Maple Leafs play tonight.

Every so often someone approaches the Nations with offers or partnerships because they think we're great and all. A lot of the time this stuff is pretty lame so we don't bother you, our valued readers, with it.
Sometimes something good comes along though (kinda like a trade with the Calgary Flames, for instance). The folks at Draftstreet sent us an email or 10 recently pitching us on an interesting salary cap draft contest that's free to enter. Oh and you can win cash prizes. Free cash is always good, so we want to pass the details along to you.

The fear factor seems to have vanished from the Baltimore Ravens' defense. They rank 27th in the NFL in total defense after finishing third last season. In two games, the Ravens have allowed 808 yards of total offense and surrendered an average of 5.6 yards per play. "That's horrible, I take offense to where we are after two games," cornerback Cary Williams said. "It's not acceptable to give up that many yards in any facet of the game. I think teams still respect us, but we can't expect to just show up and teams will respect that. We have to strike fear in guys' hearts." Playing without NFL Defensive Player of the Year outside linebacker Terrell Suggs due to a torn right Achilles' tendon, Baltimore is ranked 20th against the run, 26th against the pass. Running backs Benjarvus Green-Ellis LeSean McCoy have combined for 172 rushing yards and two touchdowns against them. "They're not as intimidating as they used to be," former NFL quarterback Joe Theismann said. "Ray Lewis ...

In the Paint BasketballRead MoreFormer professional basketball player Mike Robinson?a product of the Chicago Public School system who was drafted by the Utah Jazz and played professionally in Europe for eight years?created In the Paint Basketball to help youths develop as players. His development programs teach the fundamentals of the game, such as shooting and dribbling, but also connect kids to mentors and encourage them to discuss problems they may be having in school with peer pressure or homework.2700 W. 91st StreetEvergreen Park, IL US

WhirlyBallRead MoreSam Elias knows that being cooped up during long winter days can make people stir-crazy. So in 1993, after moving from Florida, land of palm trees and beaches, to Chicago, land of frigid winds and gray slush, he founded WhirlyBall as a way for people to release pent-up energy even as snow was falling outside. During each competitive WhirlyBall game, which combines aspects of basketball, hockey, and jai alai, players zoom across an indoor 50'x80' court in motorized cars called WhirlyBugs. They wield plastic scoops to toss a wiffle ball back and forth to their teammates before throwing the ball through an elevated goal. Refs keep watch during the games, eliminating score arguments that would otherwise end in sunrise duels. To fuel up for a bout, players nibble teriyaki chicken satay, gourmet pizzas, and prime rib, and swig draft beers, which vary by location. All three WhirlyBall spots boast off-court diversions such as video games, pool tables, foosball, and air hockey. The Vernon Hills location hosts an indoor rock-climbing wall, and both the Chicago and Vernon Hills locations invite guests into multilevel Lasertron laser-tag arenas, which fill with fog and flashing lights as combatants duck, aim, and invoke Geneva Convention protocols regarding armed conflict.1825 W.

We practice adjusting to different circumstances, including quick transitions from outside to inside, should we encounter extreme weather. What is the one feature of your business that you're most proud of? Our impact both on the fields and courts and off?our program emphasizes growth as an athlete as [much as] it does growth as a person. Is there anything else you want to add that we didn't cover? We are proud of the relationships we develop and maintain through the years with our camp families. Throughout these years, we have worked hard to create a customized teaching technique and unique understanding of how young girls best learn and thrive.

Chicago Park DistrictRead MoreIn the spirit of the city motto, "Urbs in horto" (City in a Garden), Chicago established its first parks in 1869.

But the park district provides access to more than just the green expanses of its outdoor domain; its facilities harbor the waxed hardwood of indoor basketball courts, the chlorinated splashes of swimming pools, and other features that facilitate active lifestyles. Park administrators offer athletic programming year round, as well as seasonal events such as autumn pumpkin patches and summer's Movies in the Park, part of the Chicago Park District's Night Out in the Parks initiative, which features more than 750 citywide cultural and arts activities.

We all get the e-mails that appear in our inboxes in the middle of the night offering us great products direct from China (or other foreign nations) at lower prices than ever before. Most of us ignore these come-ons. but recently. one group of e-mails crossed the line. The tag line said: "Supply Pilkington Low E Glass," and the body of the e-mail gave the impression that you can get Pilkington Low E (making you jump to the assumption it is the legendary Energy Advantage Low E they are hawking) direct from China and this company instead of from the actual U.S. manufacturer. Basically, this is the classic misrepresentation that has been festering for years but continues to get bolder as people get more desperate to move products. Bottom line here is buyer beware. Good companies don't allow fly-by-nighters to take their products and promote them, especially against their own operations. And quite frankly, if it sounds too good to be true (and is rife with typos and mis-spellings), it absolutely is. There are legitimate companies in China in our industry, and believe me, those companies don't have to resort to spam-like emails with misrepresentations to get business.
- As noted briefly last week, Guardian has filled the position being vacated by Russ Ebeid. Scott Thomsen will be the guy, and I think he'll bring an energy and passion to that job that will really be fun to watch. It continues to be a very different world, and I have no doubt that a year from now, our industry will look a lot different, that is for sure.
- The ABI held serve again this month. The really encouraging news is the solidification of the performance of the West. Could the end of the frustrations out there be near?
- On the flip side, those who have followed me know I am an alarmist when it comes to gasoline prices, and once again, I am playing the role of Chicken Little… but this time, I really believe the sky is falling. Gas has already flown past $4 per gallon and it's not even Memorial Day or the summer driving season. One analyst is predicting $6 a gallon gas. That would be very ugly.
- GlassMagazine.com (a site you should bookmark and check at least daily) had a great link to a story from Toronto last week talking about how glass as a building product is shifting. It's a frustrating story with some inaccurate statements, but it does send a message that we have to continue to educate the masses about our products. Because if we don't, we will be replaced by other materials.
- So, the "tree in the forest" that I mentioned last week finally "formally" fell and a press release was issued that UGC was sold to an affiliate of Sun Capital. Someone posted a comment on my blog saying it was getting the legal stuff taken care of, but that holds no water when so many maneuvers were underway already. Now, let's hope the new owners quickly make good on the payments owed to contracted employees that were not paid while the company was struggling. Outside of that, I think I'll hold my tongue- for now--shocking I know--but still waaaay too much emotion there for me.
- FUN FACT: The guy who won the Boston Marathon last week did it in 2 hours and 3 minutes. He was MOVING! So much so, to run that fast, that long is comparable to turning your treadmill to 12.1 and running on that for 2 hours. 12.1! Try it; it shows you the pure speed involved. Simply crazy fast.
- I buried myself yet again with the wonderful editor (Jenni Chase) of this fine publication. When I abused Denver and Washington in posts last week, I received an e-mail letting me know that those were HER favorite teams. I had no idea going in, obviously. Oh well… so if you see my next story is on the "life of useless cullet" you know she is exacting her revenge.

CLEVELAND (AP) -- A.J. Burnett became the first Pittsburgh pitcher since 1990 to win six straight starts and Pedro Alvarez homered twice as the Pirates beat the Cleveland Indians 9-2 Saturday. Burnett (7-2) gave up two runs over 6 2-3 innings. He extended the best stretch by a Pirates pitcher since Doug Drabek won six in a row during his NL Cy Young Award-winning season. Casey McGehee homered and drove in four runs and Alvarez had three RBIs as the Pirates snapped a four-game losing streak. McGehee broke a 2-all tie with a two-run homer off Ubaldo Jimenez (6-5) in the sixth. Cleveland's Michael Brantley went 0 for 3 with a walk, halting the majors' longest hitting streak this season at 22 games. The last Pirates pitcher to win six straight decisions was rookie Zach Duke in 2005. He did it over eight starts to open his career 6-0. Burnett had not been successful at Progressive Field until handing the Indians their fourth loss in five games. He came in 1-5 with a 6.75 ERA in six ...

Line failure disrupts power
At approximately
2:19 p.m. Wednesday a section of underground line failed at the Trinity Site causing a power outage for 549 customers for 5 minutes in the Eastern Townsite.
"This is the same line which is undergoing replacement because of its aged condition," said Deputy Utility Manager for Electric Distribution Rafael de la Torre. He said that the new conduit is
90 percent in place and the rest of the line replacement will proceed as planned. The line failure was unrelated to the upgrade work.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Federal officials have granted Kansas permission to overhaul Medicaid, allowing the state to turn the $2.9 billion-a-year program for the needy over to three private insurance companies next year as planned, Gov. Sam Brownback announced Friday.
Brownback: Feds allow Kansas Medicaid overhaul
The state already has awarded three-year contracts to Kansas subsidiaries of three multibillion-dollar, out-of-state companies and assigned each Medicaid participant to one of them so that the firms can begin managing the entire program Jan. 1. The state covers medical services for about 395,000 poor, disabled and elderly Kansans.
The conservative Republican governor's administration believes moving all of the state's Medicaid participants into a managed care program will give them better coordinated and more comprehensive services, while controlling costs. State officials have projected that Kansas will save more than $1 billion over the next five years, though critics are skeptical.
"This is the way forward, and you're going to see a lot of states doing this sort of model," Brownback said during a Statehouse news conference.
Kansas needed the federal Department of Health and Human Services to waive some of its rules for the overhaul to go forward, because the federal government provides the majority of funds for states' Medicaid programs. Brownback and top aides have anticipated for weeks that the health department — led by former Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, a Democrat — would approve the waiver.
State officials said the waiver itself isn't quite finished, as the final language is being drafted. But HHS told Kansas it could move ahead as planned, state officials said.
The waiver conditions would ease the transition for Medicaid participants, for example, by allowing them to keep their current physicians for 90 days, even if the doctors are not in provider networks. Also, the state will have an ombudsman to handle problems.
State Sen. Laura Kelly of Topeka, the ranking Democrat on the Senate Ways and Means Committee, said the conditions address the concerns of critics like her. But she said issues remain, such as ensuring the independence of the new ombudsman.
"I still think that it will be a very bumpy road," Kelly said.
Brownback has said the state was compelled to overhaul Medicaid because the program's rising costs would prevent it from sustaining its share of the funding into the future without hurting education and other government programs. Also, he and legislators have worried that the federal government, facing its own budget problems, will reduce funding.

Blast from the past: Lucky Dragon 60 years on
by Jeff Kingston
Sixty years ago, on March 1, 1954, a Japanese fishing boat named Lucky Dragon No. 5 was doused by radioactive fallout from a U.S. hydrogen-bomb test, codenamed Castle Bravo, on Bikini Atoll in the Marshall Islands. Although the bomb was over 1,000 times more ...

Welcome to WSU Snohomish County Extension Beach Watchers!
We are 80 volunteers dedicated to the protection of our local natural resources, especially focusing on Puget Sound. Even though we've existed for only nine years, we have volunteered over 46,000 hours to Salish Sea research, education and stewardship projects near our homes. While our name says "Beach" we work through out the landscape to protect hte waters, wildlife and landscapes that we all value and enjoy.
Snohomish County WSU Beach Watchers receive 100 hours of university-caliber training from over 40 local experts, offered annually. This year, the training includes 80 hours in an eight week intensive and offer 20 hours of continuing education throughout the year. Beach Watchers agree to volunteer at least 100 hours over two years. The training expands our minds and the volunteering expands our skills, our hearts and our connection to our community. The 2015 training is fully booked, but dates and an application for the next year's training will be available in early 2016. The 2015 agenda, application and descriptive cover letter let's you see what to expect.
We work on a broad range of projects, allowing each of us to find the ones that meet our diverse interests in our own communities. Projects range from doing beach interpretation of critters at local parks during low tides to water quality sampling to organizing public seminars.
Beach Watchers are currently evaluating the slate of educational activities we offer in the years ahead. Our Puget Sound, In Depth seminar series, Sound Living - A One Day Unviersity and the Youth Art Contest are all on hold as volunteers and staff work together to clarify our educational objectives.
WSU Snohomish County Extension Beach Watchers partner with many organizations to set our project priorities and to share our resources and expertise. Our major partners include the Snohomish County Marine Resources Committee, Washington Department of Ecology and the City of Mukilteo. Please explore our website site further to learn about our upcoming events and volunteer opportunities.
Does Beach Watcher training look like too much?
Each year, we offer a shortened training course and volunteer opportunity for people who want to dip their toes into Puget Sound intertidal ecology. There is a training offered that prepares everyone to volunteer at least 9 hours over the spring and summer sharing what they've learned at Mukilteo Lighthouse Park or Kayak Point County Park (Stanwood). The training is 13 hours with expert presenters and field time.
The 2015 training is over, but dates for the 2016 training are to come! The 2015 descriptive cover letter and application let you see what to expect. For more information, please email Yolimar Rivera at email@example.com or call (425) 357-6029.
Teachers and Educators
Each year, Beach Watchers offer classroom and field trip support to approximately 40 classes so students can learn about tides, beach rocks, intertidal life and so much more! There is limited space, so there is an application process. The 2015 field trips are no longer available since all dates are fully boked. Dates for 2016 field trips to come! If you have questions, please contact Yolimar Rivera at (425) 357-6029 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
2015 Marine Education in the Classroom and at the Beach Flyer!
Come Explore the Beach this Summer!
Explore the local marine life at Mukilteo Lighthouse Park or Kayak Point County Park beaches this summer with WSU Beach Watchers and Beach Naturalists.
Our trained volunteers will be sharing their knowledge about the animals found in Puget Sound beaches with all visitors. Join us! Check out the summer days flyer for dates and times.
Interested in Beach Watchers Beyond Snohomish County?
There are Beach Watcher programs in Jefferson, Island and Snohomish County. Kitsap County has a volunteer program with strong marine connections. Check out this brochure if you'd like to learn about the regional aspects of the Beach Watcher Program. For more local information, read on!.

A west side community group is asking the Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin to slow down a controversial $31 million, five-year 1-to-1 computing tech plan. But another parent-teacher group is urging the board to move ahead with the tech plan to close what one parent calls an embarrassing technology gap between Madison and other districts.

Blended learning was under the spotlight at a dedicated panel at the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting in Davos, Switzerland last week. Education International's general secretary, Fred van Leeuwen, participated in the panel entitled 'The Future of Learning', which debated how education systems are responding to advances in online learning and social technology.
A recent article in The Wall Street Journal showed that preliminary data from Futuresource Consulting has Chromebooks taking 19 percent of the K12 tablet and PC market, with Apple at 47 percent and Windows at 28 percent. Those numbers may not seems like a big deal until you consider that Chromebooks had just 1 percent at the end of 2012.
When a group of students from South Glens Falls High School, north of Albany, N.Y., got thirsty and needed a drink of water, they dispatched their robot to a nearby table, where a person put the bottle on the robot and it delivered it back to them. The students' robots impressed those in attendance at a career and technical symposium held recently at SUNY Plattsburgh's Queensbury campus.
The Wallingford, Conn., school district's director of technology services is leaving next month to take a similar job in Newington, Conn. Randall Backus' last day after 11 years on the job in Wallingford is Feb. 21. He will start his job as the Newington school district's chief technology officer March 3.
Pittsburgh Public Schools is expected to go bankrupt in 2016 unless it changes course. State Auditor General Eugene DePasquale says he's concerned about declining school enrollment, ballooning pension costs and the cost of sending the district's schoolchildren to charter schools.
Statewide, more than 112,000 students dropped out from both traditional and charter schools between 2006 and 2010, according to the Dropout Tracking Report. The dropout rate, it calculates, held steady at about three percent, but researchers say the dropout problem is not universal.
The researchers concluded that students whose teachers had one or more years of teaching experience and used Science Techbook for instruction scored higher on the FCAT than students whose teachers had similar levels of experience but had not used Science Techbook for instruction.
The U.S. District Attorney's Office says evidence presented by three Jewish families could show the district's disciplinary system was inadequate to accurately track — and therefore to adequately and promptly respond to — anti-Semitic incidents in the district's schools.

building digital worlds to inspire this one
Hey – still devving.
Decided to add this camera bob which I really dug in Homeworld. Gives the impression of a ship on ocean waves, I think.
Doing other stuff too, but I'm a little too drained to outline it all. Hoping to get this done before my birthday at the end of the month – and while I have the house to myself.
Elite Dangerous is pretty fun. That is all.
There once was a girl named Roro Roropupuma the Unruly. She stood by the Troubled Forest and mused to herself about the coming journey. She met the evil lord Zizipuzi Jigapujisa the Smooth.
Eric and I are doing a little 3 paragraph story generator for the ProcJam. So far so good, the above is the randomly generated text we've made after about 3 hours work. We're learning about the Mozilla Thimble tool – a free collaborative HTML editor for our text-based story. Thus far it's a slicker, though somewhat buggier, collaborative editor in the style of ShiftEdit or CodeTogether. If you're coding in HTML5 it's not bad, but we ran into a few frustrating instances where we desynced.
The code is still rudimentary but we're beginning to develop a structure. Take a look, if you like.
Hey folks! Derek here.
It's been a while since our last update. Eric and I have been hit by the real world quite a bit in recent months. I've gotten engaged to a lovely lady and my next project at work – technology conferences in Iraq – has taken off. Eric, too, has decided to tie the knot, and moreover has become a developer and producer at the entertainment games studio inXile! But throughout all these events we've still made an effort to keep our hands in the indie game, so to speak.
Eric is in the process of launching a company Humighty – a company whose goal is making play productive. I'll leave him to explain where the project is going, but you'll want to get in on the ground level for the things he's planning. He's been working on a few prototypes, like a game called Tipsy, designed to help bartenders remember drink recipes, and The Daily Deck, which is a card-a-day self improvement game – all really cool stuff!
I've been working on a game, too, called the Captain's Log, in which you play a Starship Captain who is lost in space. It started out as a small project and – like everything – has ballooned into a really big task, but I've worked to fight the feature creep and I think I'm almost done. It's a big goal of mine to actually produce a game, because the last one we published was Shaped – that was 3 years ago now.
And today, dear reader, we're putting both our side projects aside and participating in Proc Jam – a big online jam in which users are encouraged to learn and create a game about procedurally generated content. Tune in for our submission – we'll probably end up posting it here.
Anyway – Eric and I are still alive, and still doing things. If people are interested I'll share the Captain's Log dev videos here.
Haul your objects. Haul your friends.
This week we got networking working in Drift. And to prove it to you, we're going to show the update from both of our perspectives.

BAM. Drift is online – players can now suffocate and die TOGETHER! On a NETWORK

Called out Matt Pilgrim in an OSU Insider a couple weeks ago.
Here we go again.
The news of sexual assault charges against Cowboys forward Darrell Williams quickly dampened all the good that came from last week's bounce back efforts that featured wins over Missouri and Oklahoma.
OSU coach Travis Ford announced Monday that Williams "will not travel or play while the legal issues are addressed." With this case slow to develop, it's best to write off Williams for the rest of this season, just as he was starting to make an impact on the floor.
Back to Pilgrim, who now finds himself shouldering a heavier load, if not the Cowboys' already flimsy NCAA Tournament chances. For a guy team insiders have said is often paralyzed on the court with "a fear of failure," it will be interesting to see how he responds.
Oh, Pilgrim is capable. Late last season, as the Cowboys stormed down the stretch, Pilgrim played a key role, running and dunking and rebounding while showing off his crazy athleticism. But that impact play has mostly disappeared this season, although Pilgrim has better of late. Mostly, he's played harder, which is half the battle with him.
If Pilgrim can raise his game for a late-season surge one more time, the Cowboys can remain relevant in the race for the Big 12's final NCAA bids. He'll need help from sophomores Roger Franklin and Jarred Shaw, thrust now into key backup roles, but it's mostly up to Pilgrim to provide an added presence to Marshall Moses in the post.
The Pokes are already playing small much of the time. And while the move to speed up their pace of play has helped, they can't survive and Moses can't thrive going ultra small.
Last week's 2-0 performance breathed much-needed life into the Cowboys, getting them to 4-5 in a Big 12 that features nine teams at .500 or lower. A minimum of three NCAA bids are up for grabs, with the Cowboys still within reach.
They just better hope that Monday's events didn't choke off those hopes.

Lost my right aileron about 200 feet up
The plane: Cheap A$$ CMPro Edge 540T (50 size0 with a Saito .91).
I just got it this Spring after flying my PT-40 trainer for the past year. Haven't had a whole lot of luck with it so far. Ran it out of fuel, ended up in the corn (broke the landing gear off), lost radio contact (my fault), ended up in the corn. Forgot that you can't land it in the grass, flipped it and broke the rudder. Landed on the runway and ended up in the grass, broke the two elevator servo gears.
Everything was working on it and had a few great flights last Friday. No problems and landed without going into the grass.
I took it out today and was going some very fast vertical rolls. guessing about 200 feet up, I noticed something fall off the plane. I took it straight down and leveled it out and realized the right aileron had broken off. It split in two and half of it was only hanging on by the control arm going to the servo in the wing.
Don't know if its because it has large ailerons but I managed to bring it around and land it on the runway with only the left aileron. It wasn't a completely smooth landing but I kept it on the wheels and didn't break anything else. I have no idea how it didn't end up in the corn again or the trees. I thought it was a gonner. Didn't think you could fly one of these with a missing aileron.
I'm guessing that it was the hinges. They pulled right out of the wing. I was running the ailerons pretty good but I've never had an aileron fall off before.
So this will be an easy fix for once. It was a little bit of a project to replace all the wood where the landing gear goes when I broke those off.
I broke off about a 3rd of an aileron one time on a showtime 90, and could not tell it in the air. Use nylon screws on the LG and nest time you have a rough landing they will snap off and all you need is new screws not glue, wood and a whole night of work.

SmallWorks Customizable BrickCase Is A Canvas For Your LEGO Bricks
Just as apps become more complex, SmallWorks jumps in with both feet, laughing maniacally at the mundane toils of app developers (j/k, you all rock!). SmallWorks apparently feels an equal amount of fun can be had on the outside of an Apple goers' favorite mobile device, as within the interactive apps loaded within. How, you may ask? With LEGOs, of course!
Introducing SmallWorks highly customizable iPhone case, the BrickCase. The BrickCase is outfitted with numerous rows of pegs, perfectly sized for LEGO bricks to be affixed to them. Creative owners will have a blast building and rebuilding right on their iPhone. "Holy creative thinking, Batman."
With a SmallWorks BrickCase for iPhone 4, 4s, and the new iPhone 5, plus a bundle of LEGOs, the creative possibilities are endless. Build all sorts of images, letters, shapes or full-on 3D pictures and scenes using just LEGOs. I already have an idea for how to make a LEGO "TV stand," Barbie-scaled and to the particular specs of a scrutinizing 9 yr old. With the BrickCase, my iPhone will act as a television held aloft by LEGOs. This is great stuff for those who like to tinker, doodle, and all other manners of personal and micro graffiti.

Don't turn up nude: The rules are not that difficult: keep things elegant and classic; don't lay an egg à la Björk; don't wear a back-to-front tuxedo à la Celine Dion; and don't indulge in a trend. And if ever there were two trends to avoid, they're flowers and nude colours. I'm usually a fan of Michelle Williams's dress sense, but here oversized daisies have blooming taken over, even the straps. Second, that putty colour is all wrong, as the fabric blends into her skin. Think how lovely she would have looked in a rich jewel colour to bring out her eyes, or even in a more subtle floral print.

I still say that a crippled Joker is still dangerous. He manipulated Harley. Maybe that is the next Joker arc. He is now confined to a bed and cannot move anything below his neck but still has followers and manipulates people to do his bidding. A Hannibal Lector type story.
Cyborg does deserve to be in the spotlight. Its annoying that he was such a huge star and huge successful part of the Teen Titans and was then elevated to the JLA where he has done absolutely nothing. And then they changed history to say that all the huge stuff he did with the Titans never happened and he has been with the JLA this whole time like he is now.
I don't know what the article says yet, I'll read it tomorrow. But I think one thing that should be done is give him an arch enemy, Superman has Lex Luther, Hal Jordan has Sinestro, Batman has the Joker, I say Cyborg should have A.M.A.Z.O. And like Sinestro, AMAZO's origin and Cyborg's origin are intertwined. He was created by Ivo (who is now part of the lab with Cyborg's father and T.O. Morrow). I see AMAZO's and Cyborg's relationship being similar to Sinestro's and Hal's or Black Adam's and Captain Marvel's. AMAZO isn't exactly a bad guy, or doesn't see himself as that, he sees him and Cyborg as brothers. Cyborg is a human who is becoming a robot and AMAZO is a robot who is becoming human
(or wants to or is trying to)(Or maybe AMAZO wants Cyborg to embrace being a robot and join him against the humans). With them having that sort of relationship where they fight but they can also have a deep conversation. Because AMAZO is sort of the only guy Cyborg can talk to, maybe understand, what he is going through. I think giving Cyborg that sort of arch enemy would help his status, give him something else to do while not in the JLA.
Not sure who mentioned it, maybe me or someone else, said that the Metal Men could play a part as well.
I see Vic Stone's character arc being like, he was an athlete going to make it big. But more importantly he loved sports, then he became a machine man. Feeling like a freak he isolated himself from the rest of the world in the Watchtower. But as time goes by he has sacrificed more of his body to machines to aid the JLA and his father. Now he is getting to the point where he feels like he is going to loose the last part of humanity he has, so he decides to try and keep it. He moves to Earth and tries to live as Vic Stone, which is hard since he hasn't for a long time. He meets that girl who works with kids with Prosthetics (name?) and she becomes a friend (like MJ or Harry Osborne to Peter). So this is his quest to reclaim and keep his humanity. He wears clothing over his robot parts, he tries to just be a normal guy. And maybe adventures ensue.
Just some of my ideas.
And I read another's blog here, they said that the cast of characters should include his father (a strained relationship), T.O. Morrow, Ivo, Magnus, and the others from the Red Room lab.
About the never had been a Teen Titans, perhaps one of his adventures sends Vic back in time where he helps found the Teen Titans with Dick, Kory, and the rest, and he could spend like a year or half a year there and then go back home, and the history books are forever changed. Suddenly its known that they were the Teen Titans before the current series was. But only because he went back in time. Just an idea how they can do both, the New 52 and keep the old Pre-52 Titans.
More ideas: And I think while trying to reconnect with humanity and keep his humanity (because little by little, organ by organ he feels he is becoming less human and more robot) he could even move in with his dad on Earth. Much later down the line, maybe after 12 issues of his own solo about him and his humanity (and what qualifies as life and humanity and AI) and pits Cyrborg against AMAZO, we could get a story where Vic's father has a revolutionary experiment for his son. He can start replacing organs and body parts little by little, a lung here, a vertebrae there. Over years Vic could be almost completely human again. But will he be able to give up being Cyborg? At this stage how would he feel about that? So, to needlessly recap, 1st arc would be about Cyborg moving back to Earth and trying to save his humanity. 2nd arc could be about Cyborg possibly becoming human again.
Also, AMAZO's origin could be tied directly to Cyborg's. Ivo works in the same lab that created Cyborg during the Darksied invasion in Justice League. So maybe Ivo used the data and schematics about Cyborg's body and other tech from the Red Room and his own tech and genius, and created AMAZO. Giving AMAZO and Cyborg a stronger connection.

Invincible 100 was great. I love the thinking of the bad guy and his conversation with Invincible. I loved that this guy killed him, but not really, so Invincible could help him in secret but then is shown by Invincible that his reasoning is flawed. And the bad guy sees the light. He agrees he was wrong. Very different than usual.

The man in the issue is The Hood a British spy Batman. The statue in Action Comics looked like it had the normal costume I also believe that the next issue of Action Comics will address some questions about the new Doomsday.
The method of solving mysteries in Jeph Loeb's comics: whoever died is behind it all.
Snyder is not the first to write Batman as making mistakes pre-Infinite Crisis was building up those failures until he was forced to change as seen in 52. No you do not get interesting stories where the hero is always on top but sometimes as RIP shows making Batman smart and savvy is interesting and it is sometimes too easy just to write someone who can only fail. Also there is a different between Batman being flawed and just being stupid sometimes.

I really wish DC would stop with the stupid marketing ploys. WTF gatefold covers, who cares? I'm only concerned with what's inside. Speaking of what's inside. Four different artists on I,Vampire this month took me right outta the story. I so wish Szymon Kudranksi was the permanent artist on that series. The few pages he did were amazing.
I didn't really dig Hickman's Avengers this week. I really wanted to with Hyperion and Thor coming to the forefront but the rest of the story was pretty bland.

Thanks for the podcast. I don't know what it was, but something about this podcast moved faster.
Character mysteries are a tricky subject. Sure, an unknown history can be compelling, but you can't just keep teasing your audience. Eventually, you need to answer it.
Earlier this week I made this image for Tony. I had been thinking of something that would be good for Sara as a shirt design. I think I know the perfect idea. It could be an "Uncle Sam Wants You" themed image that says, "Sara Wants You to GET OUT!".
I agree that the Norman and Gwen scene is one of the most disturbing scenes I can think of. More so if that was her first, and he got her pregnant.
If you don't want readers to care that much about continuity, then they shouldn't sell the series as that. They even do drastic reboots in order to "fix" continuity. If it didn't matter, then they would just change things and no explanation would be needed. You can't say these stories are all happening in the same universe then tell people nott o care about continuity.
Glad to hear you're feeling better, Corey.
On the topic of lesser characters and people not being willing to invest. Part of the problem is probably partly the $3.99 price point. I actually wrote in a blog about this issue with how manga series court new series to readers. Since some of the largest selling manga series are sold in serialized magazines. They have the opportunity to drop in one shots chapters in along with these other series. It gives them a very broad audience to test series,

You guys are always talking about the comics shop have to buy the issues ans all that stuff i guess in that point brazilian sells are more inteligent cause here shops don't buy the comics they recieve it and the issues they don't sell are returned to distributors.
Very nice podcast, i don't think anyone knew Kyle was Mexican till last week podcast.
i would like to see squirrel girl in her own series.
Another great podcast. Very funny and informative as always. Listening to Tony abuse Sara and Cory is still entertaining but I hope he's not taking it too far. You guys didn't talk about Superior Spider-Man? I thought I was having a stroke or something. Really wanted to get your opinions on issue 2 but I can tell you've got lots of comics to read. I was a little surprised that Oda said Luffy would be Brazilian. I always figured he was just a generic island boy like myself. Then again they probably wear way more straw hats in Brazil than we do. Thanks and keep up the great work.

I got your back Sara I was yelling Samurai Jack in my car right when you said something about him and the guys weren't getting it. I gotcha.
I just read Before Watchmen's Dollar Bill. Corey dismissed this book as utter filler material. Maybe this is the case because who wants to read the life story of a throwaway character created by Alan Moore? But I think he is wrong. The book is a 'done in one' gem. The story is well executed and made me instantly care for the character. The art is simply stunning. The book also got a 10 out of 10 rating at Newsarama. Corey's remark looks based on prejudice without really checking out the book.

I know I'm a bit behind on listening to this episode, but I thought I'd add my two cents on something.
As a long time Kyle Rayner fan, I'm fairly certain his mother was either Welsh or Irish. May have to dig through my old comics for this info, but I'm not really sure where you guys would have heard that she was Mexican.
Anyway, keep up the good work.

The Lords of Discipline is a 1983 American film based on the novel by Pat Conroy and directed by Franc Roddam. The film stars David Keith, Robert Prosky, Judge Reinhold, Bill Paxton, William Hope, Michael Biehn, and Olympic boxer Mark Breland. The college scenes were filmed primarily at Wellington College in England, as none of the American military academies would allow filming on their grounds because of the book's less-than-positive portrayal of life at a military academy.[citation needed]
The film was not filmed entirely in England. The restaurant scene with Bobby Bentley, Commerce's home, and the train track scene were filmed in Charleston, South Carolina over a period of two weeks.[citation needed]
The story[edit]
The year is 1964, and Carolina Military Institute is about to do something it has never done in its entire history—allow a black man to become a member of the Corps of Cadets. Will McLean, a senior private, has been assigned to watch over him to ensure that he makes it through the year. This assignment forces him to stand against the power of "the Ten", an alleged secret brotherhood within the Corps of Cadets sworn to uphold CMI's highest standards—by any and all means necessary.
- David Keith as Will McLean
- Robert Prosky as Colonel "The Bear" Berrineau
- Judge Reinhold as Macabbee
- Bill Paxton as Gilbreath (credited as "Wild Bill" Paxton)
- William Hope as Senior
- Mark Breland as Pearce
- John Lavachielli as Mark Santoro
- G.D. Spradlin as General Bentley Durrell
- Michael Biehn as Cadet Lieutenant Colonel John Alexander
- Rick Rossovich as Cadet Dante Pignetti
- Barbara Babcock as Mrs. St. Croix
- Mitchell Lichtenstein as Tradd St. Croix
- Malcolm Danare as Poteete
An episode of NCIS, "Cadence" (season 12, episode 14), has some similarity to the film. It centers around the "Remington Military Academy", which has a secret society similar to the Ten- Honor Corps- and includes a character nicknamed "Piggy", versus the film's character Dante "Pig" Pignetti.

GRRRRR stupid family stuff... I really hope they have some of this on archive
Gold is an idiot.
wat bout we on? I cant tell
Gold is an idiot.
Personally, I'm excited to see Nemec vs. Shuster at 157, and I think it will happen. Shuster got the better of him last year (though I think this is the match where Nemec was injured).
I'll also be curious to see how well the KSU freshman Brendan Barlow does at 285 in this tournament. 285 is a pretty good weight here with Russo, Birchler, Morrison, and Fernandez. Barlow wrestles Birchler next round.
Anyone know who won between Gillespie and Greenwald? My two guys went head to head
Gold is an idiot.
Why is this tournament called Oklahoma Gold if it's in New York?
That wasnt nemec that just lost to the black guy was it???
Gold is an idiot.
No. tOSU has a lot of backups there. I couldn't tell who it was since it's kind of blurry and far away, but Nemec is wrestling a guy from Army, and that black guy was wearing a blue and red singlet.
Ouch. Big diss on Pucillo. "The only NCAA champion in the house, Jarrod King of Edinboro."
The announcer guy is trying too hard.

Weddings at Kennedy School
Get married in a former elementary school? Sure! Why not?
Imagine the fun you and your guests will have at the Kennedy School, a 1911 building that was lauded by Ladies' Home Journal for its innovative one-story architecture, back in the day. Today, visitors stay overnight in classrooms-turned-guestrooms (complete with original chalkboards), have a bite to eat in the old cafeteria (now our Courtyard Restaurant) and grab a drink in either the Honors Bar or the Detention bar, depending on your mood. And that's just the beginning.
We have several event spaces, both indoors and out, from which you can choose, accommodating up to 200 guests. It is a wedding venue unlike any other — and no one will be sent to the principal's office, we promise. (Just don't start a food fight at the reception.)
Start by filling our our Request Info form. Someone will then contact you to discuss your interest in the Kennedy School.
For more information, please download our Kennedy School Events Packet.

Restore nature to farm fieldsMay 01,2013Regarding H.112: As a local journalist whos reported on the connection between soil, food and health, Ive learned a lot about GM crops, and want to make a couple of points.
While mention of GMOs prompts images of Ph.Ds in lab coats or slick, brand-name goods on the grocery shelves, the introduction of these plants into our natural environment has consequences consequences that may not be as controllable or benign as the biotech industry would have us believe.
Many GMO plants are engineered to tolerate herbicides. This means that by design, such GMO crops are treated with chemicals, most likely glyphosate (trade name: Roundup). Glyphosate works by chelating, or binding, minerals. This affects a plants ability to take up nutrients.
The chemical also alters the balance of microorganisms in the soil, which may lead to more fungicide use. This, in turn, impairs soil life, and all that depends on it. A North Dakota farmer I interviewed described walking into a wheat field and hearing no insects. The soil looked dead. It had been sprayed twice with fungicide. It killed off the good fungi, too.
The widespread use of herbicides has also meant the advent of superweeds: plants that have developed resistance to weed-killers. The industrys answer? Create GMOs to withstand another herbicide, which means an additional dousing of chemicals.
The long-term safety of GMOs and their chemical accompaniments has not been established. Scientists whose research raised concern have suffered professionally, including being forced out of their jobs.
The growing of food depends on a living system; its not simply a matter of technology. Were part of that living system, and I worry about the cost to our health and the environment if we mess with it. Knowledge of whether food is genetically modified is the least we should be given.

If you used this in the 70's and liked the smell, save your coin cause no matter what they say it ain't the same. I'm sure the gestapo left winged EPA made them change it somehow.Read All Reviews

I have been using this oil in my banshee for a long time. I absolutely love it. The same mix that goes in my banshee goes in my chain saw, my weed whacker, my leaf blower, and my ice auger. I will not buy anything else but klotz.Oh yeah, the smell is my favorite!Read All Reviews
