Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2016 BMW Z4
By KBB.com Editors
KBB Expert Rating: 7.6
BMW has been doing this roadster thing since the 1930s, although its entries into and out of the market are – at best – sporadic. The company's recent efforts (Z3 and Z8) have been decidedly retro, whereby a long hood and short rear deck are meant to combine a prewar feel with postwar performance. With the second iteration of the Z4, first introduced in 2009, we have a fully contemporary platform, the 2-seater's first folding hardtop and – starting with the 2012 BMW Z4 roadster – a turbocharged 4-cylinder powerplant joining last year's two turbocharged 6-cylinder iterations. Here, then, comes the sun...
If you enjoy the traditional architecture of a 2-seat roadster, but find the Miata too small, Chevy's Vette too large and Honda's S2000 too, well, pre-owned, the 2012 BMW Z4 roadster has a lot to recommend it. A low price, however, isn't among its most endearing attributes. Despite the downsizing under the hood, the promise is of better efficiency and not a lower window sticker.
If you're looking for an expansive interior and great outward vision, BMW's 1 Series or 3 Series convertibles are arguably the better option. Despite its upsized footprint (relative to the Z3 or first Z4), this remains a smallish roadster with a very "personal" passenger compartment. To that end, don't expect day-to-day practicality. On any given weekend, however, Z4 roadster is a screamer.
The biggest news for the 2012 BMW Z4 is under the hood. The normally aspirated in-line-6 is gone. Its replacement, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four, is the new entry-level face of BMW, providing the performance foundation for the new 5 Series, the upcoming 3 Series and this, BMW's performance roadster. With similar horsepower, more torque (!), lighter weight and better balance, this newest Z4 promises to recall any number of great drop-tops, some of which were built by BMW.
Driving Impressions Our most recent drive of a Z4 was in the rain at Road America in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin. And while all systems were go (including BMW's Dynamic Stability Control), given...a choice we'd still prefer a dry track. The rain didn't diminish, however, the absolute pleasure one gets from behind the wheel. The BMW Z4, regardless of powertrain, is nothing more than a reinvention of the classic sports car, whose roots date back to the racing chariot. Of course, all of the classic elements are now elective. Wind in your hair? Only if you drop the top. Bugs in your teeth? That's BMW's motorcycle division. In short, the 2012 Z4 is simply an extension of your own personality and capability. If you bring your [racecar driver] Lewis Hamilton, it's game on. But the Z4 will work equally well if you bring your [sun-worshiper] George Hamilton.
6-Speed Manual Transmission
Call us crazy, but in the right car there are few things better than being fully engaged. And by that we mean the right hand is on the shift lever, while the left foot deftly operates a clutch. You're right – it ain't rocket science, but doing it well behind the wheel of a true Sports/GT supplies one of life's better moments.
Twin-Turbocharged Four
This isn't, by any stretch, a new idea. BMW, Saab, Porsche, even Buick, were offering turbocharged variants of their more "cooking" powertrains long before volume carmakers (or regulators) laid claim to the benefits. But BMW's new one is a charmer, with generous horsepower, prodigious – for its displacement – torque, and a visceral voice that needs to be heard to be appreciated. We're big fans of smallish turbos, and only hope this is the first (on a BMW showroom) of many.
The 2012 BMW Z4 interior provides a driver-centric cockpit. A comfortable touring environment, however, is provided both driver and passenger. An ergonomic 3-spoke wheel greets the driver, while ventilation and audio controls – and BMW's now-iconic iDrive – are easily accessible by the passenger. In most instances 2-place roadsters provide almost cocoon-like passenger cells, but the Z4's seems more open and accessible, providing an easy intimacy that can be enjoyed during a run for coffee – or a run for the border. We wish, however, BMW hadn't seen the need to reinvent the control for the automatic transmission. While we're sure there exists a perfectly logical reason to dispense with P-R-N-D-L, we (personally) haven't grasped it.Exterior
The Z4's shape is a softened, more mature treatment of what went before. And both Z4 shapes are dramatic departures from the overtly retro theme of the Z3. The 2012 Z4 shape is one BMW describes as the modern look of a classic roadster. And in most instances, a classic roadster covered the car's mechanicals with a minimum of metal and flourish. We like what BMW's design team has done with it, and while preferring cloth to folding hardtops (they just seem so much more "convertible") we're taken with BMW's execution. Up, the roof looks like a well-integrated coupe, while retracted there is virtually no stylistic evidence (no humps, no bumps) of its trunk-mounted hiding place.
Any 2012 BMW Z4, from the entry-level sDrive28i to the most-expressive (and potent) sDrive35is, is well equipped. And all come with a standard spec that from many other carmakers would be deemed "optional." From the functional (6-speed manual transmission, folding hardtop) to the safe (Driving Dynamics Control, a rollover-protection system) to the entertaining (AM/FM/CD with MP3 capabilities), a base Z4 won't bore you or kill you, and may actually thrill you. Most notable item in the standard spec, we think, is the move to the turbocharged 4-cylinder powerplant. May its force be with you.
Given that the 2012 BMW Z4 resides on a BMW showroom, you can safely assume that BMW options are in greater supply than BMW service writers, and in most metro areas you'll have no trouble finding a service writer. (BMW stores compensate service personnel very well.) Given its sport orientation, one of two Sport Packages – Sport or M Sport – would be a worthwhile consideration, as either choice amps up your Z4's "sportiness.". In keeping with the theme, so does the DCT gearbox available on the sDrive35i (and standard on its performance sibling, the sDrive35is). With the paddle shifters – ordered concurrently with the DCT – you'll feel like an older, less affluent version of Lewis Hamilton, only happier. Of course, any number of premium and convenience packages promise to make you more comfortable, but if you wanted to be comfortable you should have ordered the 5 Series. This, after all, is a sports car!
For those of you "classically trained," the loss of a naturally aspirated six (sDrive30i) will come as a disappointment. We'd skip the therapist and go straight to your BMW showroom, where a drive in the new Z4 sDrive28i will both enlighten and inspire. Of course, if like many successful Americans too much is never enough. For you, the pure adrenaline BMW dubs sDrive35is (the top of the line) is the engine to have, if only to tell your friends of a 0-60 in under five seconds. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard on both the turbo 4-cylinder and base 6-cylinder versions. The sDrive35is receives a DCT automatic transmission as standard.

"Most fun I've had with any car I've owned including a number of Porsches and BMW M3's. Hard top gives you great security unlike a soft-top convertible. The ability to adjust the driving dynamics means the car is a great highway cruiser and instantly switch to a very competent, fast sports car that will easily keep up with other high end sports cars. There are very few of these on the road so it gets a lot of looks. Lot of people give it a thumbs up or say that it's a great ride. Expensive when bought new but a great deal when purchased on a used basis. Life doesn't get any better than cruising thru Napa or Sonoma County on a warm day with the top down."

"Bought this new in 2009, have 42K miles and after six years there has been no problem. There was no issue with the fuel pump but had to be replaced because of the recall, as well as the battery cable. This is a conv so there will always be noisy in the cabin with the top up. Drive 95% of the time with the top down. Replace the run flat with Michelin PSS, this really changed how the car runs and handles for so much better. Highly recommended."

"I bought this car a few years back and put about 45,000 miles on it. This is a sports car. You feel every inch of the road and when the road is good, this is a great thing. When the roads are rough, this is a bad, very bad thing. The interior of the car is well laid out and comfortable, but I would not say it is luxurious. The seats are great for long drives and overall feel of the car is high end. The real issue with the car is that because it is a sports car, it gets banged around a great deal over rough roads. In the last year, one strut cracked, a wheel cracked, the top stopped working, the muffler started to rattle and the climate control began to buzz. This is all with less than 50k miles. It was monumental struggle to get BMW to cover the wheel (which had already been recalled in the UK)and strut under warranty and they flat out refused to cover the top, muffler and climate control saying they were all normal wear products. The convertible top? Anyway, sold it this week and bought a Mercedes SL550."

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 28,500overall rating 10 of 10rating details
Pros: "Design, handling, it is a hard top convertible"
Cons: "Not very good on gas when driven aggressively"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10
"I purchased my '10 Z4 with 5K miles on in 2010; it has the sports package, leather, navigation, and 7speeds. I have it as a second vehicle. I love the way this car handles, its design is timeless, and after 5 years it turns heads. Not to mention that it is not a high volume seller, and so it is also rather exclusive. I have had a couple of minor issues with it: one of the headlights had to be replaced and the roof leaked once during a heavy storm. Both problems were quickly and successfully resolved by the dealer. I love convertibles, but hate the vulnerability and rather short life of the soft tops. Hard top mechanisms have proved to be reliable so far."

Pros: "fun, performance, comfort, mpg, hardtop, design"
Cons: "trunk lighting - that's it!"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10
"This is my 3rd Z4, and the best one we have owned. Our 2009 & 2011 last generation Z4's were great cars but never quite felt like they were "finished". The ride, performance and handling were all BMW but the finesse of the interior was not quite there. Fast forward to the 2013 Z4; its got the performance, ride and handling that you expect with an interior that is larger, more comfortable, has all the creature comforts you expect and best of all it can be used year round now that is has an amazing hardtop. We just got back from a trip from central NJ to Boston this weekend and averaged 71.7 mph while getting 32.2 mpg. That's with a 4 cylinder and automatic. Don't worry, that little four cylinder has better performance than the last Z4 we had with a 6 cylinder. I very highly recommend this car to anyone looking for a car that is the whole package. It doesn't hurt that you don't see many of these on the road. If you want exclusivity without the crazy price that exclusivity sometimes demands, this is the one!"

"Lifters replaced TWICE since purchased, fuel pump replaced, brakes repaired several times, starter replaced, climate control panel replaced, OEM tires very loud and hunt on the road, adaptive headlights repaired, lots of squeaks and rattles. I will never, ever buy another BMW Z4. I must say the BMW dealerships have been very helpful trying to get things repaired properly . . . too bad, I do like the design of the body but mechanically and electrically it has lots of problems."

Living life and having fun, that's the name of the game.
I have never tried online dating before but, like everything in life, I try to keep an open mind. I like reading and discussing intellectual ideas. I'm very active and enjoy exercising and playing sports. I try to hit the gym as often as I can get there but if I can do something outside for exercise, all the better! Intelligence is important to me as well as a good sense of humor. I like to go out, have fun, and be social, but I also enjoy a night in making a big dinner and watching a movie. I was raised with a lot of morals and values and that's made me the man I am today. I am working on finishing up my MBA from UCF right now and then I plan to eventually get my CPA license. I love my job and am pretty easy going but also driven to reach my goals in life and am always looking to improve myself. In general, just a nice laid-back guy looking for the same in a lady.

That code appends a resource to the end of the array, it does not overwrite resources. Using [] without a value means that you want to add a value to the end of the array inside videos[$v].
Oh okay I get it now. I am used to ASP.NET where I would need to make new parameters on every line.
So if I was using a Series ID, I would use i instead of an s? What would happen if I use an i but I pass in a string?
Also, Seahorsepip, you had the following code:while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) { $v = $row[v.*]; //Set current v.* as variable v $r = $row[r.*]; //Set current r.* as variable r $videos[$v][] = $r; //Add r to array of v }More specifically:$videos[$v][] = $r; //Add r to array of vIf a video has multiple resources, does that append to the array, or overwrite the first several resources with that is in the current iteration?
You can also make it even more advanced. Currently the array exists of a list of video ids with a array inside them consisting of sources.
You can also make a array of video ids and inside that a array of video details, so one name, one link, an array with descriptions.
So the array would look like this:
$videos = array(); //Begin while loop $id = 123; $name = "video name"; $link = "video link"; $description = array("description one","description two","description three"); $video = array(name=>$name,link=>$link,description=>$description); $videos[$id] = $video; //End while loop print_r($videos);//show array that has been created for testing, if the text looks like a single line add <pre> html tags around this php block

There was still a bit of snow at the very top and had we had some poles or our snow shoes, we'd have made it to the Bridge of Heaven. Even still, what amazing views of Ouray, Ridgway, the mountains...and Utah.
A wonderful trail for either hikers or horseback riders. It is a long trail (I think about 4 miles each way), with plenty of elevation gain on the way up. But the views are beyond compare, and on a clear day, the La Sal mountains in Utah can be seen! At the top of the trail, one is rewarded with...
Very challenging, especially for people who are accustomed to having oxygen in their air. However, the views are totally worth all of the effort!
This begins just across the road from Hot Springs Inn where we stay. Hadn't noticed the sign before and were told it had been recently re-opened. We decided about 4:30pm on our last day in Ouray to give it a try. It was rather steep and we only went about 25 min before deciding we needed to wait till next...
There are actually two trails called "Horsethief" in Ouray. "Old Horsethief" starts south of town and is extremely steep with a 2,900-foot elevation gain over just two miles. If you can make it to the top, however, the views and the waterfall are breathtaking. "Horsethief" begins just off County Road 14 and is a trail leading to Bridge of Heaven...
We of course did not read the difficulty level before attempting so were surprised by the difficulty of the trail. On our first attempt we climbed for about 45 minutes and then turned around. Kind of scary but very well marked and maintained we didn't take any water. The second attempt was much more fulfilling and we knew what to...
Very nice hike that is moderate to difficult; the FALLS at the top are amazing....pack lots of water, and take a lunch...you will want to spend time up there. The picture taking is great too!!!
But a fun trail to hike anyway. Our horses have theft insurance, so it wasn't a problem for us. I think the horse stealing occurs more in the summer, anyway.

Nicolas Vauthier has been a big fan of natural wines, and on the forefront of promoting the wines he loves, for many years. He created a wonderful natural wine bar/store/restaurant in the city of Troyes and ran it for ten years (Troyes is not far from the Lassaigne vineyards in Champagne, so we have had many dinners at his Crieurs de Vin!). But Nicolas wanted to make wine after selling it for years, and he created a sort of garage "negoce" house in Avallon, in the northern part of Burgundy near Chablis.
l'Adroit Bourgogne Rouge— Back to the top
This is a light wine, very fruit forward and boisterous, thanks to a short elevage of 8 month in large barrels.
Varietal: Pinot Noir
Les Beaux Monts Irancy— Back to the top
François' family house is near Irancy, and in years of tasting we were sad to hardly find a kindred spirit there in terms of natural winemaking. When Nicolas Vauthier found a plot of vines where he could buy the grapes and influence the growing, we were excited. This is an age-worthy wine made from a new special parcel of Irancy Nicolas discovered. It is a delicate wine, with soft and supple tannins, and lots of fruit.
Varietal: Pinot Noir

Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
Trine is amazing. I love everything about this game. It does get a little harder as you play through it, but with practice you can learn to master every single step of the game easily. This is by far one of the best games currently available on the PS Store.

Nutty, looks like what we had last year, during June and July! Constant rain! I thought of getting the horses water wings to prevent their drowning!
Hope things clear up for you soon. We had a horrid hay season last year because of all the rain. Hay was cut so late, it lost much nutrition, so we've had to supplement like crazy to break even!

Before frolicking to spend the holiday with friends and family, let's partake in the seasonal tradition of giving thanks, from a movie-obsessed perspective.
1. The ever-expanding VOD market
I came of age as a film-lover in the era of VHS, so I've never had to grapple with a scarcity of film-viewing options, but even so there's a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between the way I watched films as a kid and the undiluted access we have to film now. Whereas in the past, if I wanted to catch an indie film or under-the-radar foreign offering, there'd be a good chance I'd find myself driving three hours roundtrip to Chicago or Madison to do so. The fact that so many independent films find their way to VOD services or make their way to Netflix after their initial bows, means the discussion surrounding these films has become a global one. Granted, this more or less destroyed the concept of the video store (although Riverwest Film & Video survives!) which is something I don't think has properly been eulogized as of yet, but even so it allows for film lovers to immerse themselves in an education that will mean even more film polymaths making their own movies with a nearly unlimited supply of examples to eschew or follow. It also allows me to do things like recommend a Netflix double feature this Thanksgiving of The House of Yes and Planes, Trains and Automobiles – two films that have little in common beyond their holiday setting but are immediately accessible to those interested in taking the plunge. This is a time of incredible plenty for film lovers, and we should all be thankful for it.
2. The reopening of the Avalon Theater
There was a time not so long ago when the future of the Times Cinema remained in flux, and it seemed like the Oriental, Downer and UWM Union would be the only options to take in a movie in Milwaukee. Flash forward to this winter, the Times is alive and well and in only a handful of days we'll have yet another option available to us. The Bay View-located Avalon Theater is celebrating its grand reopening with a soft opening scheduled for Monday, Dec. 15 through Wednesday, Dec. 17. It will feature special screenings of The Hobbit trilogy along with tours of the renovated space and an oral history booth where you can share your stories about the Avalon. More information, including pricing information, can be obtained by emailing email@example.com. Welcome back, Avalon.
3. The Milwaukee Film Festival
It's the crown jewel of our local film going experience, it appears to get better with each passing year, so of course I'm thankful for the diverse filmmaking brought to our doorstep for two weeks every year. But even more exciting is Milwaukee Film's commitment to expanding the breadth of their programming statement, bolstered by ever-increasing attendance and one of the highest membership rates of any festival in the country, with a vision toward the festival being a year-round concern that aims to further bring together the Milwaukee-based film making community. To that end, Milwaukee Film brought in Rebecca Campbell, the executive director of the Austin Film Society, to discuss the long and winding journey toward prominence all with the end goal of promoting film business alongside film culture. Campbell discussed the differences between our two markets, helping to make our strategic weaknesses seem like unique opportunities – positing that our lack of infrastructure and state-offered incentives for filmmakers means we have little competition and can focus on cultivating indigenous filmmakers. Future events of this nature strengthen the local film community and prove an exciting development in the evolution of Milwaukee Film.
And finally….
4. Readers of Moviegoers
Whether you were tricked into visiting our little corner of the web with "YOU'LL NEVER GUESS WHICH STARS USED THIS WEIGHT LOSS TRICK" or you are genuinely interested in local film opinions, thank you for reading. As the local film scene becomes even more enthralling, I hope our coverage of it will follow the same trajectory.
Happy Thanksgiving, all.

Originally written on Gridiron Grit | Last updated 9/5/12
Time: 3:30 p.m. Eastern Network: ESPN When College Gamedays pays a visit, you just know that the game has some importance to it. SEC football is better than ever before with the additions of Missouri and A&M, but this weekend is all about these two squads hosting premier and storied programs. Many have the Gators or Bulldogs representing the SEC East in Atlanta, and Florida's chances could get thrown out the window if they lose this matchup. Aggies newly hired head coach Kevin Sumlin brings in a spread offense with several playmakers all over the field against a Gators defense that remains one of the most complete units in the country. The key matchup that most are talking about would be the Gators defense against Sumlin's offense, but in reality this game is all about if newly starting named quarterback Jeff Driskel can put together a solid performance against an Aggies defense that has been somewhat thrown to the curb. Sean Porter played like an SEC linebacker and his teammate...

The playoff push is in full effect. The beat writer dog days are in the rearview mirror. I was all geared up for an exciting finish and then my 4-year-old cut off a conversation with me last weekend by saying, "You're boring me, Daddy."
So now it's time to bore you persistent questioners with as much Bulls knowledge as possible.
the Bulls don't score this offseason with a major acquisition, what happens? Would Gar and Pax be fired? Steven V, Wilmette
Well, it's not like the Bulls are going to completely strike out. Even if they fail to land LeBron, Wade or Bosh, Ron Mercer is available--or at least his current equivalent. I touched on this topic in last week's mailbag and noted Jerry Reinsdorf's longstanding loyalty with executives. Gar and Pax aren't going anywhere.
With the disastrous injuries to DRose, Noah and Deng, do you think the Bulls would win the NCAA Tournament with their current roster? Respectfully, Al Bulls, Chicago
A lineup of Jannero Pargo, Acie Law, Chris Richard, Flip Murray and Joe Alexander would beat the NCAA champion by double digits. There's no comparison between the pro and college game. NBA players are bigger, faster, stronger, better and play a different game. College basketball, particularly with the one-and-done rule claiming the best players, is an inferior product to the NBA--good for stirring drama but not much in way of competition with the best basketball league in the world.
Do you think moving DRose to shooting guard would help his development? When I watch Derrick create offense off the dribble, it's to set himself up usually, not others. Ryan Borjs, Chicago
DRose is a point guard. Give him another bonafide scorer and you'll see him create for others. How many times did he penetrate and kick to BG last season for 3-point shots? Plenty. The reason he is creating so much for himself this season is because he has the ability to perform offensively what the game needs.
Hey, I'm not sure how to contact Gar, Pax and Jerry in their bunker under Berto Center, so could you please extend an invitation to this little foot race we have scheduled here in June? You can assure them it's for a very good cause. Benny, Pampalona, Spain
Man, you people are twisted--creative, but twisted. Keep it up.
There's lots of talk about Acie Law needing to play better defense. It seems to me that anyone with the physical skills to be a good scorer in the NBA also has to have, by default, the physical skills to be a solid defender. If they have the physical attributes to score on a regular basis, then they also have the physical attributes needed to defend. Right or wrong? And if I'm right, doesn't that lead to a rather negative conclusion about bad defenders? Finally, you don't look like Sudeikis. You look like my brother Norman, a Harvard PhD by the way. Curt, Momence
Thanks. I think. As for your question, here's a little news flash: Even the best defenders in the NBA get scored on. The offensive talent is too good and the rules prohibiting hand checking are too strict for even the best defenders not to get lit up once in awhile. But, yes, a lot of defense at this level is having a good game plan and committing to it. Remember that Skiles had people like Ben Gordon playing major minutes on teams that led the league in opponents' field-goal percentage. And the Bulls improved tremendously from last season to this with a lot of the same personnel.
I don't understand the criticism concerning the Salmons trade. We weren't going anywhere but seventh or eighth with him and maybe not even that given all the injuries. Keeping him meant we might not have been able to compete in free agency this summer. I want to see the Bulls back in contention and that requires a superstar be added to their core. Tom, Dayton
Did Gar ghostwrite this for you? But seriously, can I get an Amen? Look, Salmons clearly was the best player in the trades. But it's not like Flip Murray is a stiff. (And, yes, I know they got Murray in the other deal, but he is Salmons' replacement.) Murray is a viable NBA rotation player, albeit a gunner at times. The Bulls knew they were giving up something to get something and that something is the guarantee of being able to offer a max salary. That's a chance that, in my opinion, you have to take. Plus, if they don't experience widespread injuries, it's likely they make the playoffs while trying to achieve long-term goals.
Even though the Bulls went on that horrible losing streak, I enjoyed watching the backups play. James Johnson isn't that horrible, Acie Law is a pretty good player and Jannero Pargo still can't handle the ball or know what is a good or bad shot. But they played hard and hustled, which made the games fun to watch. Do any of these benchwarmers have a role next season? Bob, Fox Lake
It all depends on what happens in free agency. If the Bulls spend all their salary-cap space, they're going to have to fill their roster with a lot of lower-salaried players. That would increase the chances of someone like Law sticking around as a backup point guard. James is under contract so, barring a trade, he will be back. I'd doubt Warrick or Murray will return.
I saw you in the 76ers game highlight reel chatting with Jannero Pargo on the bench before the game. What were you guys talking about? Alper, San Francisco
The best part about being a beat writer is getting to know players beyond sound bites. Contrary to what some might think, beat reporters don't always just interview players. We try to form relationships so that trust is formed, and that involves, at least in my opinion, letting players get to know you a bit. Jannero long has been one of my favorite people in the league. I stayed in touch with him a bit even when he left the Bulls following his first stint. We talk often and I believe that night we were debating Chicago high school basketball since he is a product of the Public League (Robeson) and Simeon was playing Whitney Young for the IHSA Class 4A title that night. I played at Evanston, which lost to Simeon in the 1984 Class AA state title game, which I joke with DRose about often by claiming the game is still under protest.
I know hindsight is always 20/20 and I know you're a pretty big Luol Deng fan. I like Luol. I think he's pretty good. But he's definitely overrated. Do you think the Bulls regret signing him to the $71 million contract now? Rich, Phoenix

This letter is in reference to the article appearing in the Walla Walla Union Bulletin on Feb. 6.
Four Washington State Correctional officers were injured by inmates wielding "shanks" -- knives made by inmates inside the walls. Two of the correctional officers involved are closely related to me; a grandson and an adopted grandson.
The number of incidents involving serious assaults at the Washington State Penitentiary are drastically escalating. Not only are officers being stabbed and beaten, but inmates are also being attacked and, in some cases, killed.
It is no secret that correctional officer positions have been drastically reduced, which breeds a potential killing field. These conditions are appalling and must be immediately rectified.
Our officers perform one of the most dangerous jobs on our planet. Why must they perform this job with their hands cuffed, so to speak?
We must not permit the conditions to fall to the level of the 1970s when the penitentiary was literally a "no man's land," when Sgt. Cross was fatally stabbed to death. Officer Jayme Biendl was killed on Jan. 29, 2011, at Monroe.
It is my intention to start a statewide campaign to bring the necessary changes to the Washington state correctional system. I ask all of you reading this letter to join me in protesting these appalling conditions in our current penal system. God willing, we could save lives

Comment: Teledesic, The 1990s Called (Score 2) 123 123
Yeah, I remember this when it was called "Teledesic", from the mid-90s, when Craig McCaw, Bill Gates & Prince Bin Alawaleed threw $9 billion in a hat to create a Low Earth Orbit satellite internet company.
So, we have yet to solve some of the staggering problems behind this concept.
1, Cost.
2, Cost
3, Cost
4, Semi-acceptible downstream speeds, latency-choked laggy dialup upstream speeds making video/audio streaming, uploading to cloud services, etc wholly impractical. The only workable solution is to use traditional terrestrial last-mile technology (cable, dsl, etc.) for the upstream. Which wholly defeats the point of satellite internet.
I thought Sir Richard was smarter than this.

A sacred institution
Marriage is a sacred institution, ordained by God, so that the man will leave his father and mother and together he and his wife will cling and become one (Mark 10:7). With this proclamation Christ asked that both man and woman shall become one in holiness and matrimony, procreating and making life comfortable for both the children and the home.
In this book, The Reality of Marriage, Clement Icha, a Mass Communications graduate zeroes in on the need for couples to work round the clock to make their union work. Since it is a sacred calling, God said in 1 Timothy 3:18 that it is an abominable thing and quite dishonourable when the matrimonial bed is defiled. It is horrific and brings pain and regret to the home.
Icha's contention is that it is through the efforts of both man and woman that marriage works. At times, a man would ask himself why he married his wife due to some inordinate actions of the woman. This is often vice-versa, yet it is heartwarming when both couple come together to ensure that these differences are buried in order for peace to reign.
The author breaks it down thus: "For many years, my marriage seemed like a pain in hell with agonies that stung my heart to almost curse the day I got married. And I am very sure that I subjected my wife Charity to similar experience in the relationship. Yet, I refused to see the fact that the fault of whatever I was going through is embedded in me."
There are equally instructive sub-headings to help readers grasp the lesson in the book. They include one agonizing mistake, where to learn from, what step to take, what's this thing called sex and lots more. With the deep understanding of the subject matter, the author makes it clear that marriage is a lesson. It is instructive; it equally takes wisdom, knowledge and tolerance to make it work.
As it is for the man, so it is for the woman. Together, in love, marriage can work.

Hugh Jackman in Talks to Join Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen in X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST
According to the The Hollywood Reporter, Hugh Jackman is in talks to reprise the role of 'Wolverine' alongside Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart, who are confirmed in the roles of Magneto and Professor Xavier, in the upcoming X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST.
X-Men director Bryan Singer revealed on Twitter yesterday that the cast will also welcome back James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender and Nicholas Hoult.
The last installment of the franchise, X-Men First Class, was set in 1962 when the United States government enlisted the help of Mutants with superhuman abilities to stop a malicious dictator who is determined to start world war III.
X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST will act as something of a sequel to 'First Class'. Days of Future Past is taken from two issues of Marvel Comics' Uncanny X-Men in 1981. The story was set in an alternate future in which surviving mutants were confined to concentration camps, while most of the X-Men had been killed. In order to stop this dismal future from unfolding, the X-Men had to stop a specific event from occurring in the past.
Jackman just finished production on The Wolverine, the sequel to X-Men Origins: Wolverine. The actor has also starred in films for such directors as Baz Luhrmann (Australia), Woody Allen (Scoop), Christopher Nolan (The Prestige), and Darren Aronofsky (The Fountain). Later this year, he will headline as Jean Valjean in the eagerly awaited screen version of the musical epic Les Misérables from acclaimed director Tom Hooper (The King's Speech), set for release on Christmas Day.
As comfortable on stage as he is on screen, Jackman has seen additional success on Broadway with credits including the musical The Boy From Oz (for which he won Tony, Drama Desk, Drama League, Outer Critics Circle and Theatre World Awards), his recent one-man show Hugh Jackman: Back on Broadway, and the drama A Steady Rain opposite Daniel Craig. In addition to serving as Tony Awards host for three consecutive years from 2003 – 2005 (his second appearance earned him an Emmy Award, and the final garnered an Emmy nomination), Jackman brought hishoned skills to Hollywood where he hosted the 81st Annual Academy Awards in 2009.

NYT: Behind the Masks in Ukraine, Many Faces of Rebellion
"The rebels of the 12th Company appear to be Ukrainians but, like many in the region, have deep ties to and affinity for Russia. They are veterans of the Soviet, Ukrainian or Russian Armies, and some have families on the other side of the border. Theirs is a tangled mix of identities and loyalties."

Cartoon Network Launches First-of-Its-Kind App for Kids
Following the launch of live-streaming that allows viewers to watch its content live, whenever and wherever, Cartoon Network announced today that it has added an innovative enhancement to that experience, a first-of-its-kind app for iOS that will allow kids to watch television and play games simultaneously. CN 2.0, a new version of the already popular Cartoon Network app, is now available on the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad, bringing an entirely unique feature to the mobile marketplace.
The new app includes all the great features and content from the original video app, plus exclusive games and collectibles. Engaging the power of the iPad, the revolutionary user interface allows fans to watch videos and play games simultaneously, or swap seamlessly between the two just by rotating the device. The iPhone and iPod touch versions include all the same content and also allows users to watch and play in the same app, although not simultaneously. The new Cartoon Network app will continue to be free to download.
"In continuing our efforts to make sure our viewers are enjoying Cartoon Network content, whenever and wherever, it is always our goal to make their experience unique and exciting," said Stuart Snyder, president and chief operating officer for Turner's Animation, Young Adults & Kids Media division. "CN 2.0 is an innovative and fun new enhancement to the Cartoon Network app that is like no other in the marketplace."
"The viewing habits of kids are changing everyday and they are using mobile devices and tablets more than ever," said Chris Waldron, vice president digital for Cartoon Network. "We know they love our shows and games and have observed them participating in both simultaneously, yet on different platforms. It just made sense to bring all that together into an experience they can't find anywhere else but at Cartoon Network."

Engineered equipment supplier Robbins & Myers Inc. said on Saturday that its pending acquisition by National Oilwell Varco Inc. cannot close before Feb. 18, unless federal antitrust regulators grant consent before then.
Robbins & Myers also said that it and National Oilwell Varco have agreed with the U.S. Department of Justice to provide the agency at least 30 days' notice before concluding the deal, which was announced in August.
The update came two weeks after Robbins & Myers said that antitrust inquiries by U.S. and Canadian will push the closing into 2013.
National Oilwell Varco plans to buy Robbins & Myers for $2.55 billion. Both companies are based in Houston and do business around the world in the oil and gas industry. Robbins & Myers makes and services pumps, valves and other equipment used to control the flow of oil and gas in drilling operations.
Robbins & Myers has scheduled its special meeting of shareholders on Dec. 27 to consider approval of the deal.
As of Saturday, 99.8 percent of the shareholder votes cast have been in favor of the transaction, with a sufficient number received to approve the deal, Robbins & Myers said. However, shareholders have a right to change or rescind votes before the special meeting.
In addition to providing an update on the deal's status, Robbins & Myers on Saturday reported that its fiscal first-quarter earnings fell 9 percent from the year-ago period, in part due to costs related to its pending acquisition.

Ummmm…sorry, these are not very attractive and are almost creepy looking.
A little to nightmarish for my kids tastes.
sorry d characters r really not attractive to catch the kids eye…..mmmmmm..pictures r too closterfobic….less detailing required.
i`m so sorry to say it looks like a bogi man at night and i didnt like the face's it`s so scary for the kids even i dont think so that the kid will accept it like a wall
Cute and unusual. The site posted above is one I built for Hank Nunes who has been doing children art for years.
It took me years to convince him to make these works available to others and, I finally succeeded.

Red snapper season reopens Oct. 1
Feds allow snapper fishing for an additional 24 days, weekends only
CORPUS CHRISTI - Federal fisheries managers announced Tuesday they will reopen red snapper season Oct. 1.
The season will run through Nov. 22 for eight consecutive weekends in federal waters, which begin about nine miles off Texas shores. Anglers may keep two fish per day that measure at least 16 inches.
State water snapper fishing remains open, with a four-fish daily bag and a 15-inch minimum length.
In recent weeks the much anticipated federal document worked its way through bureaucratic channels as an emergency rule, which gives it fast-track status.
In August the Gulf of Mexico Fisheries Management Council, which is made up of representatives from each gulf state, approved extending the season to compensate for the closures that occurred as a result of the British Petroleum oil leak. The regular federal snapper season ran from June 1 through July 24, the shortest season ever. But during this time much of the snapper fishing waters were closed off the coasts of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama because of the spill.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Fisheries Division has determined that recreational anglers caught only 1.1 million pounds of this year's red snapper allotment, which was set at 3.4 million pounds.
The Gulf Council recommended giving anglers a shot at catching the remaining 2.3 million pounds during a 24-day extended season that would run between Oct. 1 and Nov. 22. To maximize recreational opportunities, the council suggested snapper fishing should be allowed during this period only on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. And that's the way it was adopted.
NOAA-Fisheries favored the proposal, but didn't have the authority to allow this without approval from higher up.
Under normal circumstances, federal law prohibits extending the red snapper season past Sept. 30. So NOAA-Fisheries had to have this rule waived.
But before the recommendation could be adopted, it had to be checked against the Environmental Protection Act and then last week it went through the general approval process at NOAA.
Earlier this week, the proposal was being reviewed by the U.S. Department of Commerce, which oversees NOAA. Monday they were leaning toward approval, according to NOAA spokesman Steve Branstetter.
Branstetter said the Department of Commerce understood this was a pressing issue. The proposal required only minor tweaking. Traditionally, implementation of this kind of rule change requires what's referred to as a 30-day cooling off period after the rule is published. But remember, this is an emergency rule on a fast track.
Obviously the 30-day waiting period was waived.
When the season opens, here's what area offshore outfitters have planned.
Party boat operators in Port Aransas were optimistic this week leading up to the announcement. At Deep Sea Headquarters (800-705-3474), they will offer daily eight-hour trips during the short season. And they'll offer a 12-hour trip the first Saturday of the season for $105. If demand is high, then they'll likely offer additional longer trips on subsequent Saturdays.
Oct. 1 also is when the party boats begin fishing for tuna.
At Fisherman's Wharf (800-605-5448), they'll offer a nine hour snapper trip each day of the season for $85. And on Saturday they'll offer an 11-hour snapper trip for $100 and a 12-hour overnight trip for $100.
At Dolphin Docks (800-393-3474) they're planning daily 8.5-hour snapper trips for $86 and 12-hour night trips on Fridays for $105. Dolphin Docks also will offer a 12-hour day trip from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday for $105. And ask about Dolphin Docks longer trips (depart Friday and return Sunday) during the season,
If conditions are right, some of these snapper trips could turn into tuna/snapper adventures. What a bonus that would be.

The Hockey News: Habs Draft 2012 = A+
There's no question that with the exception of a couple blips on Trevor Timmins career, he has been one of, if not the best scouts in the NHL in recent history. My question is, with next year projected to be an even stronger draft than the crazy, getzlaf, parise, carter, perry, richards, staal one, should we, instead of seeing where our health carry's us this year, be shipping off, our vets for picks. Gionta, Bourque, kaberle, markov, gomez, and even...erik cole. i mean..those guys just don't fit in with the era we're trying to build for. Alex galchenyuk isn't going to be the player we need him to be until those guys are sipping margarita's in the carribean, ya know? Nor is beulieu or tinordi, or collberg, or leblanc or next years pick. What do you guys think?

Do they have waffle tacos?
Over under is 6 mos on this place. They'll run out of money and friends to borrow from by then.....but their food looks so cooooool....ahhhhhh!
The worst food, service, and overall experience I had eating Indian. But don't take my word for it - http://www.urbanspoon.com/r/34/762760/restaurant/Kansas-City/Masalas-Authentic-Indian-Bistro-Overland-Park#posts or check out many of their one-starred YELP reviews.
I discovered Baked a couple of weeks ago and have been there twice (brunch and dinner) and take-out once (lunch and pastries). I love this kind of a restaurant: casual yet professional, high quality ingredients, innovative items, good desserts. The veggie burger on the lunch menu was wonderful (it is often my barometer for a restaurant - it can be boring and dry). Theirs was delicious and creative. Portabella mushroom with wonderfully flavored roasted butternut squash. The same veggies reappeared on the brunch veggie eggs Benedict. Both dishes excellent. The mussel appetizer broth was creamy with onion, capers and kalamata olives. I wanted to lick the bowl, but scooped as much as I could with their yummy bread. As I said, good food, nice vibe - a wonderful neighborhood addition.
That pot pie is definitely worth $20.... I got it last time I was there, a few weeks ago, and I burned my mouth because it was so delicious I couldn't wait for it to cool down
$20 for a pot pie....that's ludacris
I had one of my worst Kansas City restaurant experiences at Westside Local when it first opened. I have since become a big fan and it is always on my short list of great places to dine.
Last time I was there, the fries were frozen... Maybe that's changed?
Best veggie burger in KC with a vibe that is unrivaled!
We've been any number of times and have loved it every time.
You are sooooo right about those fries!
It has been one of my family's favorite places, especially when weather permits outside seating. The staff has always been gracious to us, from opening. I agree the fries are the best in Kansas City.
Seriously amazing food, plated with artistry. Doesn't quite mesh with the casual vibe, but we can live with the disconnect as it is just that good. We have been twice, and intend to be regulars. The service needs some professionalization (it is very friendly, and mostly efficient, however) and the chairs could use some cushions.
I walked by one night and it was filled with people. The food looks a little precious to me but I never liked anything that looked like it had been touched too much. Unless I am the one who made it.
That place is empty each time I walk by it. Makes me feel bad for the owners and staff.
We'll see if it can escape the Macaluso Curse.
Idiots! Presentation is incredibly important for a restaurant. And Charles is right. Most of the cheese plates around here are incredibly uninspired. The old JJ's was a perfect example. The cheese and honey had possibilities, but a good cheese plate requires more than balsamic dribbled over it. It needs fresh fruit.
I love our city's caricature of celebrated food and nightlife journalists. It pairs well with the overinflated sense of pretentious entitlement that is often extended to a familiar few within the local restaurant industry. It's a good thing Baked has their own parking lot across the street so Charles had somewhere to park his Waaambulance.
I did enjoy the image of a third grader assembling a cheese plate. I want to try that cheese plate; I bet dollars to doughnuts that it would be original and amazing.
"I had mine with thick, fleshy slices of quivering pork belly"....oh my!
I just loved this review and can't wait to try Baked out. The duck confit sandwich sounds incredible.
I have my share of stupid first world problems, but crying about the configuration of a cheese plate might take the cake.
