Welcome, everyone! The Lovely Lola Kyle has invited me to help her with her cover reveal for her upcoming book "Expert Tease". Below are the links where you can check her out. ❤
Ciao, Krys xo

Ciao, Krys xo
I am a so thrilled to participate in this year's NaNoWriMo! For those of you who are not aware of what it is, this is an event for writers, coming from different genres and writing experience from all over the world to cheer each other on as they journey into the battle of finishing a new book or a work in progress. The goal is to hit 50k words within the 30 days of November. I'm actually off to a pretty good start, hitting the 2k threshold since I've been picking at this new book I started writing. It was birthed from an idea of white noise … which I felt was a pretty fitting plot in development, considering it was just Halloween. Check out NaNoWriMo.org for more details!
The title is: "PARADIGM" and the lovely cover will be revealed very soon. It was made by my dear, sweet, designer pal Amy Queau, a designer and writer I look up to and admire so much!
AHH! What a journey. This book as changed so much over time, and I am so thrilled to see it come to life. If you haven't pre-ordered it, don't worry, there are plenty of copies to go around!!
Just a forewarning, there was a new edition update to the kindle version of the book that may not have gone through on the first run from launch. If you get an updated version, there are just some changes down the line and additional word the thank yous.
As I've been somewhat ill the last few months, there were a few things that we needed to fix and may have missed during the edits, but don't worry, this should not hinder your reading experience.
We will be sending out for print within the week, and will let you folks know when it is ready for order!
Thank you, everyone, for being so supportive through this process. I hope you enjoy, or share with someone who may be interested in this one!
Krys xo & Christa C.
Thanks for joining me last week for the cover reveal for If I Should Wake. Again, the design was made by the talented Kris Pittman of C & K Creations, so please stop by their page and give them your support by liking or sharing their work.
If you didn't get a chance to see my cover reveal, here's another look at the first cover in the Kassandra Drake Novels.
The Pre-Order is now live on Amazon, with the release date set as October 18th, 2016–just one week after my birthday. 😉
Don't hesitate to share the pre-order link with anyone who may be interested in reading it upon release, I appreciate the support!
Until next time,

Looking for more from Ellie Potts:

This blog is long overdue, and I apologize for its delay to my friend Ellie Potts, who has been patient with me as a mentor and writing motivator. Note that this blog is not gaming related or metal related but it is very dear to me, as it has to do with the book written by my dear friend. 🙂 So for those of you readers out there, enjoy.
Before the release of this book, I actually helped with a cover reveal for this novel, and shortly after that, I became a beta reader. Little did I know what I was actually in for.
Seeing Stars is a novel about a young woman named Alisa who is going through some very troubling times. After leaving her cheating husband and driving down to Los Angeles, she finds a new life in the city and is guided by her new found friends in fame: Dawn Blackmon, Ray Day and the ever dreamy Logan Rider. Rider is one of the leads in a hit show called "Family Insurance" and in his downtime, managed to get a hold of one of Alisa's books to adapt to film because he was so enthralled by her writing he wrote the script!
As the pages fly by (and believe me, you won't even notice it, the story is that good), Seeing Stars gives an insight to the night and day life of an actor, and the trouble found when Alisa, a writer who is naive to this world, is thrown into this fast-paced, paparazzi filled, rumor driven world.
With multiple 5-Star reviews on Amazon (including mine), Seeing Stars has had great praise from readers. For those of you interested in contemporary romance, this novel is a fantastic read. I love books but I generally don't find too much time to read. This story, however, caught my attention as the characters (especially Alisa) were easy to relate to and believable. I couldn't put this book down, except as I got closer to the final pages, because I was sad that it was coming to an end. The situations they are put in and the resolutions of some of the more dramatic scenes are realistic and sometimes guttural, that it punches you right in the heart.
I highly recommend this book to any and all of my fellow readers, so feel free to check out a free sample or Buy Seeing Stars on Amazon.com!
Now for an exciting announcement: I am a writer, and have been working on a handful of projects left and right. Music, books, a concept for my band's new album, and when I happened upon this story and its ending, I couldn't help but find myself attached so much to the characters that I went to Ellie with some questions kinda like this:
"What happened to…"
"Where did this plotline end?"
"Did we ever see this happen?"
It's not to say that I wasn't satisfied with the ending, I was just so delighted by these characters and this star-studded life that I wanted to see a bit more. After much pestering (haha), Ellie was gracious enough to grant me permission to continue the story of the Stars. It is definitely in its early stages right now so bear with me. The story may continue. 🙂 Huge thanks again to Ellie for being so kind as to allow me to do so, and I hope it will do the story, that you have so beautifully created, some justice.
Much excitement on my end, believe me. So please, support my good friend and check out this wonderful book, Seeing Stars!
Thanks for Reading!

Very useful tip from Novel CoolSolutions on how to increase the disk size of a VMWare image: http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/tip/15344.html
I currently develop mostly in Windows using Eclipse, so I decided to create an openSuse 11.0 vmware image to test some of my code, as our product supports various platforms, including some flavors of Linux. The 10GB disk size soon became too small and now I need to increase it. Here are the steps I had to do:
To resize the guest Os hard disk size, I issued:
vmware-vdiskmanager -x 15GB opensSuse.vmdk
However, step 1 only resized the disk, not the partitions. Starting the partition manager from within the guest Os didn't work, because the partition can't be altered while it is still mounted. A simple solution to overcome this issue is to use a Live CD. I still had the openSuse live CD ISO image I used to install the guest Os, so I just pointed the guest OS cd-rom drive to that .iso file.
After booting from the CD-ROM drive, go to Yast -> System -> Partitioner , select the partition you want to expand and click Resize. Select the new size for the partition and click Ok to apply the changes to the partition table.
Reboot your machine and voila! You existing partition will now have the new size.

I would like to move a Tamukeyama this weekend. I know it is more ideal to transplant in early spring or late fall when the tree is dormant, but I just planted it late last season so the roots are probably not well established yet. Will it be ok if I move it now?
Transplant a JM right now?

PRICE REDUCED: MRP of most widely used complete knee implant (Cobalt-Chromium) has been fixed at Rs 54,720 plus GST from earlier average MRP of Rs 1,58,324 MRP of special metal titanium and oxidised zirconium has been fixed at Rs 76,600 plus GST, NEW DELHI: After coronary stents, the government on Wednesday fixed a price range for knee implants from Rs 54,000 to Rs 1.14 lakh, nearly 70 per cent lower than most surgeries currently cost.With private hospitals reportedly charging exorbitant rates, the government capped the maximum retail price of the knee implants, a move that will save patients an estimated Rs 1,500 crore annually."Government will not remain a mute spectator and will not allow this illegal and unethical profiteering," Chemicals and Fertilizers Minister Ananth Kumar told a news briefing. The price in case of specialized implants for cancer and tumour has been sharply cut to Rs 1, 13,950 from the current prices of Rs 4-9 lakh. There are 1.5 crore to 2 crore patients who require knee implant surgery. Every year 1.2 lakh to 1.5 lakh knee surgeries takes place in India, according to the government. It is estimated by World Health Organization (WHO) that by 2020, osteoarthritis is going to be the fourth largest cause of immobility globally, Kumar informed.

While the holidays are a time for feasting and celebrating, it's still important to eat healthy. To help our community enjoy winter holiday meals that will not put them "under the weather," dieticians from New York Methodist Hospital's Department of Food and Nutrition Services suggest the recipe that follows. Even though this heart-healthy entrée is low in fat, calories and sodium, it's still a tasty main dish. The fresh thyme enhances the flavor of the meat, while the juices from the fruit slices ensure that the turkey will be juicy and tender.
Citrus and Herb Turkey Breast
1 large carrot, cut into thick slices 1/2 tsp. salt 1 large celery rib, roughly diced 8-10 fresh thyme sprigs 1 large leek, sliced thin, lengthwise 4 thin lemon slices 1 large onion, cut into small chunks 2 thin orange slices 1 small whole turkey breast, with ribs Canola oil spray 1 cup fat-free, reduced sodium chicken broth
1. Set a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In the bottom of a roasting pan, arrange the carrots, celery, leek and onion to serve as a bed for the turkey. 2. Slide one hand under the turkey breast skin near the neck and gently pry it from the meat. Use the other hand to gently lift up the skin until all the breast skin is loosened from the meat.
3. Sprinkle the salt on the exposed breast meat, then add the thyme. On one side of the breast, insert a lemon slice, slipping it to the back. Add an orange slice to the same side, then a second lemon slice, keeping the herbs underneath the citrus. Repeat on the other side of the breast. Gently pull the loosened skin back in place and pat it down so it almost reaches the neck.
4. Coat the skin with cooking spray and set the breast on the bed of vegetables. Place the pan on the oven rack and add broth. Roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees. Remove the breast to a platter and let it rest 20 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, pour the juices from the pan into a measuring cup. Chill to allow fat to rise. Transfer vegetables to a blender and purée. Skim the congealed fat and stir in the vegetable juice, then reheat.
6. Remove the skin, citrus and herbs from the turkey and carve into slices to serve with juices.
Recipe yields six servings. Each serving provides: Calories 180; Protein 36 g; Sodium 358 mg; Carbohydrate 6 g; Dietary Fiber 1 g; Total Fat 1 g; Saturated Fat 0 gram.

All of us realize that it's nice to volunteer because we can impact others' lives for the better, but did you know volunteering is also great for your own health? Volunteering has a variety of physical, mental, and emotional benefits. For example, HealthyWomen.org states a research study "looked at more than 7,500 older United States residents and demonstrated that those who were frequent volunteers had a significantly lower death rate than non-volunteers-even after adjusting for wellness troubles."
Choosing where to volunteer
Occasionally it's just hard to know where to start. Well, think of something that interests you. Do you like animals? Animal shelters often need volunteers to help walk their dogs. Do you like helping sick people? See if you can volunteer at your local hospital. Here are a few other ideas to help you get started:
- Classrooms and after school programs
- Nursing homes
- Youth Sports groups
- Local libraries
- Church groups
- Girl Scouts/Boy Scouts programs

Not only will your volunteering profit those you serve, HealthyWomen.org also cites a study which found "people with chronic pain who volunteered as peer counselors found that their pain, disability, and feelings of depression all lessened from volunteering." Keep in mind, while volunteering once or twice a year is nice, research has found you have to offer service about 100 hours per year in order to experience health benefits.

Having an attorney with skill and experience in providing clients with successful defenses against burglary charges is imperative if you have been arrested for a burglary offense. The charge of burglary is dependent on the intention of the person accused. In some cases, the person may be accused of burglary just for being on the premises. In such a case, a successful defense may include: a reason for being on the premises, mistaken identity, and fingerprints due to a presence at the property with permission prior to or after the burglary took place. Speak with a Brevard County criminal defense lawyer so that you can begin to build a strong defense in your name today.
Retaining a qualified attorney can help you to protect your rights and may be the only way to protect your future. Burglary is a serious charge and you could be made to serve a lengthy prison sentence, pay hefty fines, and have a permanent criminal record. In addition to the damage that the other penalties may inflict on your life, a criminal record will make it difficult for you to live in the area of your choosing, obtain quality employment and even get into the schools of your choice.
At Kernan & Austin, LLC, we have the experience and skill to help keep our clients out of jail and with a clean record. It is extremely important that in the face of these serious charges, a seasoned attorney is hired and that the family of the accused does not settle on a state-appointed attorney. In such a case, the attorney may not have the required background to effectively defend the accused from the charges. Call our firm today so that we can review your charges thoroughly.

Extreme sports performance, inimitable style: The MINI John Cooper Works Paceman..
We're trying not to get too excited about the new Paceman here at Ferman MINI of Tampa Bay (WWW.MOTB.CO) as we still have to concentrate making space for these new models. Come and take a shopping spree here in Palm Harbor Florida
The MINI John Cooper Works Paceman celebrates its world premiere at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit in January 2013; its market launch will follow in March 2013. The new arrival swells the John Cooper Works ranks to seven models. The MINI John Cooper Works Paceman's driving characteristics and design ensure it will stand out from the crowd in city traffic, as well as being the car of choice when maximum driving fun over longer distances is the order of the day. Instantaneous power delivery and an unquenchable appetite for revs define the engine under the bonnet of the MINI John Cooper Works Paceman. The turbocharged power unit teams up with a six-speed manual gearbox as standard; a six-speed automatic can be ordered as an option.
The MINI John Cooper Works Paceman sprints from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 6.9 seconds with either of the gearbox variants. Yet despite this intoxicating turn of speed, fuel economy is exemplary for its output class. The MINI John Cooper Works Paceman posts average fuel consumption in the EU test cycle of 7.4 litres (automatic: 7.9 litres) per 100 kilometres / 38.2 (35.8) mpg imp.
The distinctive character of the MINI John Cooper Works Paceman is underlined by bespoke design features. Standard specification includes an aerodynamic kit, 18-inch light-alloy wheels, a sports exhaust system with chrome tailpipes, and door sills bearing the John Cooper Works logo. As well as white and black, the exclusive Chili Red paint finish can also be specified as an option for the contrast-colour roof and exterior mirror caps. And customers can also lend an extra edge to the typical John Cooper Works sports car feeling inside the car with bespoke accents such as Chili Red interior trim strips.
The engine: dynamism in spades, fuel consumption in sips thanks to racing expertise and MINIMALISM technology.
The MINI John Cooper Works Paceman draws its power from a 1,598 cc four-cylinder engine. The latest generation of the John Cooper Works turbocharged unit blends motor sport-inspired technical details with cutting-edge innovations developed by the BMW Group's powertrain experts. Highlights include reinforced pistons, low-weight crankshafts, an aluminium cylinder block and bearing mounts, and further optimisation of the cooling system, air supply and exhaust gas discharge system. Plus, the turbocharger is twinned with a generously sized intercooler. The twin-scroll turbocharger joins forces with petrol direct injection and variable valve control based on the BMW Group's VALVETRONIC technology, which optimises both the engine's efficiency and its responsiveness.
The MINI John Cooper Works Paceman's powerplant develops its maximum output of 160 kW/218 hp at 6,000 rpm. Peak torque of 280 Newton metres (207 lb-ft) is on tap between 1,900 and 5,000 rpm, and can be increased to 300 Newton metres (221 lb-ft) for short periods between 2,100 and 4,500 rpm using the overboost function. This opens the door to gratifyingly vivacious acceleration to which the standard-fitted sports exhaust system provides a suitably stirring soundtrack.
ALL4 all-wheel drive as standard, six-speed automatic gearbox optional.
The MINI John Cooper Works Paceman channels the extraordinary power produced by its front-mounted transverse engine through all four wheels as standard. The ALL4 all-wheel-drive system developed for MINI uses an electromagnetic centre differential to distribute drive seamlessly between the front and rear axles. This means power is always sent to the wheels where it can be translated most effectively into forward propulsion. In normal driving situations ALL4 diverts a maximum 50 per cent of the engine's power to the rear wheels, rising to as much as 100 per cent in extreme conditions. This provides a traction-led expression of the handling talents for which MINI is famed – whatever the weather and road conditions. The control electronics of the MINI ALL4 system are integrated directly into the DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) management unit, which gives ALL4 extremely short response times and allows it to carry out proactive adjustments in the distribution of drive. The system uses the data collected by DSC to tweak the power split pre-emptively and to impressive effect through dynamically taken corners, for example. And that means the driver enjoys outstanding agility combined with surefooted driving characteristics in customary MINI style.
The MINI John Cooper Works Paceman can be ordered as an option with a six-speed automatic gearbox as an alternative to the standard-fitted six-speed manual. Both the transmissions and the manual's clutch have been adapted to handle the engine's impressive power and play their part in ensuring outstanding performance coupled with further improvements in efficiency. The automatic's Steptronic function, meanwhile, gives the driver the option of changing gear manually using the selector lever on the centre console or the shift paddles on the steering wheel.
The choice of gearbox has no effect on the sprinting power of the MINI John Cooper Works Paceman. The new car dashes from rest to 100 km/h (62 mph) in a trifling 6.9 seconds, regardless of whether the engine is sending its power through the manual or automatic conduit. Top speed stands at 226 (140 mph) for the manual version or 224 km/h (139 mph) for the automatic. The MINI John Cooper Works Paceman marries this impressive performance with eye-catching economy. The engine's inherent efficiency and extensive MINIMALISM technology – such as Brake Energy Regeneration, the Gear Shift Indicator and the Auto Start/Stop function (on manual cars) – are the trump cards here. Average fuel consumption in the EU test cycle is 7.4 litres (automatic: 7.9 litres) per 100 kilometres / 38.2 (35.8) mpg imp, and CO2 emissions come in at 172 (184) grams per kilometre.
Developed to deliver visceral racing thrills: chassis, aerodynamics, design and interior tuned to John Cooper Works specification.
Another key player in giving the MINI John Cooper Works Paceman its sky-high levels of driving fun is chassis technology optimised specially for the new model; a MacPherson spring-strut front axle, central-arm rear axle, Electric Power Steering and an extremely high-performance braking system make a potent team. The standard sports suspension has a dynamically optimised spring/damper set-up and stronger anti-roll bars, and is lowered by 10 millimetres. The standard DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) system also comprises DTC (Dynamic Traction Control) mode.
And the likewise standard Sport Button on the centre console allows the driver to tweak the engine's responses and soundtrack, as well as the power assistance provided by the steering. If the automatic gearbox is specified, pressing the Sport Button also quickens up shift times. 18-inch light-alloy wheels in Twin Spoke Black Burnished design with polished spoke fronts and black rim wells are standard on the MINI John Cooper Works Paceman. Among the items on the options list are exclusive 19-inch light-alloy wheels in Cross-Spoke Crusher design.
The extrovert design of the MINI John Cooper Works Paceman gives the first Sports Activity Coupé in the compact segment a dynamic presence, brimming with forward-surging intent and agility – before it even turns a wheel. The powerfully formed front end, elegantly sporty, stretched lines of the flanks, coupé-style roof swooping downwards towards the rear, and broad rear end of the three-door car all ooze sporting allure. And the aerodynamic kit fitted as standard on the MINI John Cooper Works Paceman shines extra light on this performance-maxing character. The particularly muscular form of the front and rear aprons and bespoke side skirts ensure the airflow around the car is even more efficient. John Cooper Works logos on the radiator grille, tailgate and door sill strips as well as next to the side indicators provide additional confirmation of the car's identity. Customers can choose from nine exterior paint finishes, including the Chili Red shade reserved for the John Cooper Works model. Chili Red is also available exclusively for the MINI John Cooper Works Paceman's contrast-colour roof, exterior mirror caps and Sport Stripes.
Inside the car, the distinctive interior design combines with the customary sports car ambience of John Cooper Works models to particularly alluring effect. The rear compartment of the MINI John Cooper Works Paceman features a pair of individual seats in which the rear passengers can enjoy that unmistakable racing feeling in lounge-style surroundings. A sports steering wheel with red contrast stitching and John Cooper Works logo, dark-coloured dials for the 260 km/h (160 mph) speedometer and rev counter, anthracite-coloured roof liner, gearshift lever with red shift pattern lettering, red contrast stitching for the gearshift lever gaiter and floor mats with red stitching are all part of the standard equipment count for the new extreme sports model, as are cloth sports seats in Diagonal Track John Cooper Works Carbon Black trim with red contrast stitching. Lounge Leather sports seats in Carbon Black Championship Red are available as an option. Standard Piano Black interior trim strips add the finishing touches to the racing-inspired aura inside the MINI John Cooper Works Paceman. Exclusive Chili Red trim – consisting of red elements for the cockpit and doors and a red stripe for the black trim strips on the centre console – can be ordered as an option.

Will someone give me a heyyyooo…the future looks bright at
Ferman MINI of Tampa Bay!
In various interviews over the past few months, BMW executives have hinted at grand plans for the UKL platform. Reported by both MotoringFile and BimmerFile, the UKL platform will spawn an onslaught of FWD models. This will make MINI more long-term viable and will drive the BMW Group to greater economies of scale. Yet just how far BMW is willing to go with FWD, and how big the MINI brand will get hasn't really been understood until recently.
BMW has plans — BIG plans — for such a small automaker. According to several sources (and recently coraborated by "Scott27″ — our favorite inside source), the BMW board has given approval for a number of front wheel drive models in both the BMW and MINI lineups. Surprisingly, this even includes a MINI four door sedan. According to those who've seen the proposal, it's an extremely attractive car that leverages the MINI floating roof and wrap-around glass. Apparently, the rear is similar to the Paceman, with sculpted front lines reminiscent of the 2008 MINI Crossover Concept. However, this variation of the MINI design language will be unique to this sedan, letting most of the rest of the lineup continue to follow the visual lead of the F56 hardtop hatch.

The MINI sedan is just the start of further model expansion. There will be several crossovers and utility vehicles, as well as sporting coupes and convertibles. Here's the list for both BMW and MINI as we currently understand it, keeping in mind some of the details may change.
- BMW 1er Urbanic Compact 3/5dr – Upcoming City hatch based on the next MINI, making it BMW's Audi A1 rival.
- MINI 3/5dr hatch – Increased demand for utility leads to the next generation MINI, due next year, to feature available five doors for the 1st time.
- BMW 1-series Sedan – Baby sedan based on the UKL architecture and aimed at global markets for small five seaters.
- MINI Sedan – A sporty four door MINI aimed at further growing the market for MINIs. Could potentially be MINI's best seller worldwide, overtaking the Countryman.
- BMW 1-series Active Tourer – Production version of Active Tourer Concept launched at IAA 2013.
- MINI Traveller – MINI's version of the Active Tourer. It's designed to show how both cars can co-exist with individual style and flexibility.
- BMW 1-series Urbanic Roadster – BMW's open top version of the City Car will inherit two seats and will feature a rear deck with layered butresses like the BMW 6-series Cabrio and BMW i8. These are designed for clip on roof panel.
- MINI Convertible – The F56-generation version of the popular 4-seat, open top MINI.
- BMW Z1 Sportster – To provide greater economies of scale, The Z1 will be BMW's equivalent to the MINI Coupe and Roadster. It will be FWD and powered by more powerful three cylinder engines than what we'll find in the MINI range. The design is derived from the well-received 2011 Vision ConnectedDrive concept car.
- MINI Roadster – The next Roadster and Coupe will launch with a sportier look completely separate from the standard MINI. MINI design language will remain but the bodywork will no longer be based on the hardtop hatch.
- BMW Z1 Sport Coupe – A coupe version of the Z1 will complete the BMW Z twins.
- MINI Coupe – Coupe version of Roadster, and as mentioned above, more individual in appearance than the standard hardtop hatch.
- BMW X1 – Next generation of BMW's highly successful SAV moves to the UKL architecture to offer more flexibility, including xDrive.
- MINI Countryman – Next generation of the global MINI juggernaut, the Countryman will finally share its underpinnings with BMW X1.
- BMW X2 – Sport Activity Coupe variant of the next BMW X1 , FWD with optional xDrive and the first BMW SAC to appear as both a 3dr and 5dr. Think of it as the BMW version of the MINI Paceman.
- MINI Paceman and Paceman XL – Next generation of newest MINI member will be offered with the current 3-door version, as well as a 5-door.
- BMW Family Activity Sports Tourer – BMW's hybrid of an SAV and MPV, the FAST will feature a "touring" bodystyle and aim to sew up the small, luxury people carrier segment.
- MINI Clubman – Current car revisited with more style and more flexibility. Anticipated as more of a Shooting Brake with dynamic raked roof and forward looking proportions.
- Next Generation BMW 1 Series Sedan – Due in 2017 and is expected with both front and all wheel drive available.
However, for all this FWD, BMW isn't giving up small rear wheel drive cars. In fact BMW and BMW M have big plans for the 2 Series range. Specifically BMW M will base a car on the 2-series with a Gran Coupe variant of the 2-series Coupe. Adding two extra doors to a slightly longer wheelbase and roofline, the Gran Coupe will set itself apart. This car will be BMW's answer to the Mercedes-Benz CLA, but in a more enthusiast friendly RWD form. The 2-series Coupe will also form the foundation of what will effectively be the second generation 1M. Here's the full rundown of future small, rear wheel drive cars from BMW:
- BMW 2-series Coupe – Coupe version of the 1-series hatch. Unique front and rear style, with a sleeker, rounded roof. Yet still in compact proportions. Premieres at IAA 2013.
- BMW 2-series Cabrio – Soft top version retains the unique appearance of the 2-series Coupe.
- BMW 2-series Gran Coupe – A 4-door addition of 2-series Coupe with slightly lengthened wheelbase and roof line. It's aimed to position BMW's RWD as dominant over the Audi A3 Sedan and Mercedes-Benz CLA.
- BMW 2-series Gran Sports Tourer – A Hyundai Veloster-type, asymmetrical touring coupe inspired by the classic BMW 2002 Touring variant. This car has many admirers in Munich.
- BMW M2 Coupe – Successor to the BMW 1-series M Coupe, the M2 Coupe continues the same formula that made the last car so memorable. While no huge competitor in the HP race, four cylinder will bring less weight, which matters most in a car of this type. More driving enjoyment and overall feel is considered of higher priority than who has the biggest horsepower numbers.
- BMW M2 Gran Coupe – The baby Gran Coupe inherits a lot from its four door big brother: 340 HP, Four doors and RWD. It will be a direct competitor to the Mercedes-Benz CLA 45AMG.

More news about the MINI Paceman from Ferman MINI of Tampa Bay, scouring the web for tidbits to tittilate we thought you might be interested in this narrative. Look to www.MINIofTampaBay.com for incoming inventory of all descriptions.
When the BMW X6 was introduced there was no one clamoring for a less functional, sportier version of the X5. Yet sales followed at a pace that made BMW look like geniuses, and other automakers took note. Now MINI has introduced its own crossover coupe in the MINI Paceman. Is the Paceman another answer to a question no one was asking? Or is it another brilliant move?
This was the question I kept asking myself from behind the wheel of the Paceman, and I got my answer. It came around mid-day, climbing into the Spanish mountains with the Mediterranean in full view. Corner after corner, our Cooper S test car made the case that the Countryman never quite proved — that a 3,000 lbs crossover has a right to wear the MINI badge.
Many cars that look better in person than in photos. Count the Paceman among them. The Paceman has wider rear flanks than the Countryman, and is simply more voluptuous in person. The 3/4 rear view looked rather dramatic the first time I saw it. I immediately got the sense that the Paceman was a bit of a playground for the MINI Design team. The rear lights are turned horizontal, which helps visually lengthen the car. They have a jeweled quality that looks all the more impressive lit up. Add to that the subtle creases and curves of the body lines and we have a MINI that looks sculpted in a decidedly modern way.
Obvious care and intention went into crafting the Paceman's shape. In our eyes the results are striking. From the refreshed grille up front, to the sloping rear window, the Paceman has a unique visual identity that speaks of its sporting potential. Luckily, our drive through the western island of Mallorca saw that potential realized.
Throughout the elevation changes and tight corners, the Paceman never felt out of its league. The feedback and general composure was not only miles ahead of any other small crossover, but a significant improvement over the Countryman. This isn't by accident. MINI has re-calibrated the electric steering and endowed the car with more of that all-important characteristic: feel. With a relatively quick ratio and a bit more nuance in the corners, the Paceman simply feels more eager than the Countryman.
A revised suspension also helps the Paceman's case. Essentially, MINI took the Sport suspension from the Countryman, optimized it for this car, and fitted it to the Paceman as standard. Because of these adjustments, the Paceman sits one cm lower than the R60, which impacts how the car looks, but more importantly, drops the center of gravity slightly. It may not sound like much, but the better body control of the stiffer suspension, along with the lower ride height, gives the Paceman a more agile feel. Those concerned about outright comfort can still opt for the standard suspension, but be warned, it'll be a lot less fun.
For all its capability, the Paceman is still no MINI Hardtop. I could feel the extra 200-300 pounds when pushing the car hard. That said, for a crossover with no right to do so, the Paceman produced ear-to-ear grins in the Mallorca canyon switch-backs. Our front wheel drive Cooper S test car lacked the neutrality of the All4 set-up, but it weighed less and felt much closer to the R56′s reflexes than any Countryman we've ever driven. This despite being nearly identical in weight. In total, each model of the Paceman weighs around 30-40 lbs less than the Countryman.
Another of the more obvious changes between the two cars is the lack of rear doors. However, simply removing two doors wasn't a straightforward exercise. MINI Design had some aesthetic issues to solve in removing two doors from a car the height and length of the R60. The Paceman's front doors are actually smaller than they appear. A large 5-6″ lip on the trailing end of the door increases the visual length of the door and moves the cut-line further towards the rear wheels. It works well for the design but creates an issue opening the doors in tight parking spots.
While the exterior features major changes over the Countryman, the interior (at least up front) sees only minor but welcome tweaks. Yes, the window controls have moved to the doors. Does that impact the character of the car? Absolutely not. In fact, I welcome the change. MINI can be MINI in a number of ways and the placement of window controls has confused people for years. In my mind, it's a welcome change and one that we'll eventually see across all MINIs.
MINI Design also addressed the massive grey plastic surround in the center of the dash that cradled the speedo and center vents. The secondary part of the trim is now the same color and pattern as the dash, effectively making it disappear from sight. This reduces the visual weight of the design, making it much less of an eyesore.
In the back, things are decidedly different than the Countryman. With the rear doors gone, MINI has locked in a rear bucket seat layout. While similar to the four door Countryman, the Paceman's rear seating has crucial differences. For example, the seats have a deeper bottom cushion with more aggressive side bolstering. The result is comfortable and more secure in the corners. Headroom was more than adequate for my 6'2″ frame despite the sloping roofline.
Exclusive to the Paceman are optional factory 19″ wheels. These aren't JCW wheels either. However, in talking with MINI, the best setup for both comfort and handling feel is still the standard 17″ option. Comfort aside, those 19″ wheels fill up the wheel wells very nicely.
Drivetrains across all models are identical to the Countryman. The US still only gets the Cooper, Cooper S and JCW (starting spring 2013). However, one notable difference to the 2012 Countryman is the updated clutch. Both the manual-equipped Paceman and 2013 Countryman will have the upgrade, which allows for better engagement and more feel.
With the Paceman, MINI didn't set out to right the wrongs of the Countryman. Clearly the Countryman is doing just fine, with sales exceeding that of the hatch last month in the US. Yet with the Paceman, MINI had an opportunity to prove that their larger platform can be more of what people think of as MINI-like. On the switchbacks of Mallorca it did just that. I can also say that as someone who lived with a Cooper S Countryman All4 for a year, the Paceman is a revelation. It's quick-witted and more MINI-like in its attitude, yet it stays true to BMW's "Sport Activity Vehicle" ethos.
Look for the Paceman to hit US dealerships in March of 2013, with the Cooper S priced around $28,000. That's about $1,500 more than the comparable Countryman, and this price offset will hold across the entire lineup. The range will include the Cooper and Cooper S at launch, with the JCW following shortly thereafter.
Does a crossover coupe make sense? Obviously, if you don't like the look, go elsewhere. But if you connect with it, the Paceman is an intriguing and entertaining proposition for those looking for a all-weather, vehicle with quick wits. It's also practical than expected, with more boot space than the Countryman and roomier, more comfortable seating than the R56.
I'll be frank. In concept, I struggled to look past the size and weight of this car, especially coupled with the lack of rear doors. Yet in the flesh, all those concerns melted away while the style, presence and driving experience of this car took over. It won't be the practical workhorse the Countryman is for many. Yet for those who are willing to trade a little practicality, the Paceman offers a lot of style and rewards that compromise with a significant handling upgrade. All-in-all, the Paceman is a welcome addition to the MINI line-up, but most of all, a welcome iteration on the Countryman.

Come see at the Ferman MINI of Tampa Bay factory in Palm Harbor!
BMW deal saves Dutch car factory after Mitsubishi exit – The Economic Times.
THE HAGUE: Dutch company VDL signed a deal Monday to take over Mitsubishi's sole western European plant and start producing Minis there for Germany's BMW, in a rare piece of good news for European automakers.
"The deal with Mitsubishi
to take over the NedCar factory in Born has been signed," VDL said in a
statement, adding that Mini production would begin in the second half
of 2014 once the production line has been updated.
VDL said
that none of the 1,500 workers at the Netherlands' only large car
factory would lose their job. Some may be detached to other VDL
facilities, it said.
Japanese carmaker Mitsubishi announced in
February it was planning to halt automobile production in Europe by the
end of 2012, blaming a difficult operating environment in the debt-hit continent.
Mitsubishi said it would sell the factory for a symbolic one euro if all 1,500 jobs at the site could be saved.
VDL is an industrial group that manufacturers finished and
semi-finished goods, including buses and coaches. The Eindhoven-based
company employs around 7,400 people in 18 countries.
Mitsubishi produced the Colt subcompact and the Outlander sports utility models at the wholly-owned unit, located about 180 kilometres (112 miles) southeast of Amsterdam.
Output at NedCar, which was established in 1991, has remained sharply
below its production capacity of 200,000 units a year, contributing to
Mitsubishi Motors' operating loss in Europe, reports said.
Fewer than 50,000 cars were assembled in 2010.

via MotoringFile » Archive » A BMW Insider Weighs in on Upcoming MINI Models.
Frequent MotoringFile commenter and known BMW insider, Herr26, left us a interesting comment yesterday on our recent post regarding upcoming MINI models. As with all of his comments (here or BimmerFile) don't take it as fact but perhaps great insight about a moment in time within BMW. In the past we've seen many of his proven right but also some proven wrong simply because plans changed within the company.
All that said its well worth a read, so we're reposting it here. In it, there's lots of interesting tidbits regarding future MINIs:
- The MINI Spacebox aka the Traveller that will be essentially a larger version of the Clubman based on the recently announced BMW Active Tourer pictured above
- MINI four door sedan
- MINI Activity Tourer which could be something of a larger four door Pacemen with an extremely raked look
- MINI Sports car aka the next generation coupe and roadster which could seeing more variation from the look o the standard MINI
Catch the full comment after the break.
The next MINI concept will be a cross-over destined to show how BMW and MINI can co-exist. Entirely based on the Active Tourer the MINI variant goes with familiar MINI aspects such as enhanced MINI family design and quirky features such as club doors but with the emphasis on space and light. As the vehicle utilises an allround glasshouse and large panorama roof for an enhanced spatial feel It is the vehicle destined to become the MINI TRAVELLER and follows the same creative approach as the BMW by re-interpreting an existing concept into their own brand philosophy. Whilst the BMW aims for a very dynamic appearance with intelligent thinking the MINI will appeal more to the MINI heartland and especially those who need more space and flexibility. One clever addition is the incorporating of a Rolls-Royce type wrap around lounge seat in the rear.
To describe the MINI it is very much like an enlarged clubman and alongside the Active Tourer you would never guess they are practically the same car . But that is BMW's intentions that MINI and BMW can and will co-exist. Appearances will differ as will how they will drive as BMW sets out to show that MINI and BMW can co-exist. Both the MINI Traveller and BMW Active Tourer enter a market that is growing as more european customers are turning to cross-overs in needs of greater flexibility. The Mercedes-Benz B-Klasse has shown that premium can work within such a segment and the two concept attack by BMW and MINI has spurned Audi into action as the segment is expected to grow by around 45-50% and BMW expects both the MINI and BMW to take a significant result from that growth.
The interesting aspect in terms of design language of the BMW Active Tourer is that if you shrink the car and change the front and rear end you get a very close look of the next MINI's sister the City Compact. The MINI sedan is also moving ahead with some quarter scale models being built for first evaluations. Looking like a mixture of Maserati and even a mini-Rolls-Royce the car is advancing with some typical MINI ideas being expanded on as slimmer, elongated MINI-esque lights at the front or the conventional cornered lights , trapezoid rear lights and floating roof , its far too early to get a definite answer on what it will look like , but some of the ideas are so far overly impressive , some even incorporating the rear hinged doors which bodes to my impression of a MINI Rolls-Royce. The stumbling block here is what to do with BMW. As BMW are currently at work on a elongated four door of the upcoming 2er Coupe model to bring into line amongst the 6er Gran Coupe and upcoming 4er Gran Coupe aimed at the Mercedes CLA and Audi A3 Sedan. A FWD 4dr BMW would be counter-productive as the appeal of a RWD model would be far greater.
The next BMW FWD model is an intelligent approach on the SAV, MPV and Touring. This can fully be described as a cross-over because it features the robust solidity of an SAV in its appearance, The space feel of an MPV and the cargo capability as a Touring and you can add Coupe to that mix because of its dynamic sloping rear end.
Dubbed the F.amily A.ctivity S.ports T.ourer or FAST for short it aims to offer an intelligent approach to a cross-over which combines every need with optional xDrive. One thing learned is that there are a lot more customers using their cars for more than their basic needs. In todays market it has shown that customers now shun conventional concepts in light of more unconventional choices, such as MPVs over Sedans, Crossovers instead of hatches and so on.
FAST offers a variation in one concept with universal appeal. FAST will also be the first BMW model (after BMW i3) to offer rear hinged doors as the FAST shares with a similar MINI Concept which I originally thought it was the Paceman is actually the MINI Activity Tourer.
The MINI Activity Tourer brings the more raked look from the PACEMAN , but to a five door concept. Again sharing with the BMW FAST it aims to offer a variation on the MINI theme by offering a more sporting space concept but developed for a more active lifestyle. For a more stylish MINI appearance rear hinged doors will open up the cabin for easy entry/exit on the beach or on the slopes.
The MINI Sports car idea is a variation on the theme of actual Coupe/Roadster and how that for the second generation and in that the whole MINI family. Is that if you take the Countryman it has proved that MINI can stand alone in seperate individual concepts. And now is the opportunity for the MINI family to expand further on styling and individuality.
The current MINI , Coupe , Clubman and Roadster are all variants of the same look. the next generation should form their own unique identity but still be recognisable as a MINI. The Countryman has achieved this and the replacements for the MINI Coupe and Roadster should also follow this by making them completely distinguishable from the conventional standard MINI with more individuality and sportier styling. MINI's unique selling point is that they are cars with character , they expand on ideas in an unconventional way and yet they deliver cars which drive with a fun-factor missing from many proposed sporting hatches or coupes.
The next generation through their enhanced sharing with BMW retains that fun factor with a dynamic edge but never forgetting that go-kart like character. BMW are aiming at a more sporting edge aimed at the more premium end of the market , despite the concept whether it is FWD or a Active Tourer etc it has too feel as direct and communicative as a BMW. BMW knows that for this new generation of compact vehicles is that for everything to work they have to be everything the other is not and that individuality is just as important as design.
Something the engineers have achieved, I cannot wait till you find out how this jigsaw goes together.
Thanks, Herr26. We always appreciate your perspective.

MotoringFile » Archive » iPhone 5 and What it Means for MINI.
BMW and MINI have both diversified their smartphone integration that
started with iOS to include the Android platform. Yet the iPhone and iOS
remain the most important mobile platform for either brand. So it only
makes sense for us (and many of you) to take note when Apple releases a
completely new iPhone. Especially one that includes a new connector. So
what does it mean for current an future MINI owners? Read on to find
First off it means your current iPhone dock (yes that $200 accessory
you may have bought for your armrest) will not work with the iPhone 5.
We've been assured by MINI that an update to the part should be coming
in early 2013. What about the "Y" cable that connects your phone to the
USB port in the car? Again that's expected late this year or early next.
But the good news on that front is that Apple will sell you (for a
slightly eye-watering $30) an adapter that converts the previous
iPhone/iPod connector to the new lightening connector standard on all
new iPhones and iPods.
Speaking of iPods the new Nano has gained the all important Bluetooth
option. For the first time this will allow the Nano to stream music
wirelessly to any BMW or MINI that supports streaming audio via
One thing to note; MINI and BMW Connected will not be affected by the
upgrades to the iPhone or the iPod Touch. However neither will run on
the iPod Nano.

What is a creative crisis
Signs of creative crisis
Creative crisis occurs involuntarily. Yesterday you worked on an interesting project, and now you have a stupor. And to break the deadlock with an effort of will, no matter how careful, you will not succeed. This is the fundamental difference between creative professions from any other – you can of course force myself to work, but the result will have to wait a very long time, and it hardly will please your employers.
If the worker is in a creative crisis is immediately noticeable. At the peak of inspiration the person is doing, not noticing anything around. He can forget about food and not go to sleep until after work. In a creative crisis worker at best depicts the activity constantly complains of feeling unwell, fatigue and various distractions.
Who becomes a victim of creative crisis
At risk in the first place are those who work, not sparing himself. The pace of work will inevitably lead to depletion and decay, and one day you will not be able to give even the smallest ideas. To reduce the risk, slow pace. If you have both there is just a few ideas – write them and make a plan of work for this project. If you will reach a creative crisis, you will be able to work, focusing on his notes.
The completion of significant project can also be marked by a creative crisis. You worked hard and your creativity could "go on vacation". This is a normal process – give yourself to rest and recover. And then with new forces for new challenges!
Creative crisis can overtake you and during the execution of a major project. In the beginning you were so filled with enthusiasm and inspiration, but then emotions subsided, came the weariness and disappointment. In this case, will also help the planning – don't forget to write down their ideas on various phases of work, and periods of decay inspiration to exercise routine.
The emergence of the creative stupor can be caused and monotony of your life outside of work. If year after year you live in one place, visit the same establishments, go to work the usual way – this is all about to oppress creativity. To revive, take a trip, make the house a permutation, find a new hobby. The main thing – that in your life burst stream of new experiences.
Personal problems can also cause of the crisis, the creative person. Such individuals tend to be more vulnerable, all the external problems significantly affect their work. To solve this problem is difficult – you can't just shut off your emotions and memory. So try to do everything to your personal life went smoothly, and the inner world was calm. But remember that many great masterpieces were created by the authors of the crises of personal life.

Friendly fire is used to describe a situation in which a player can damage, or even kill, an ally on the same team.
The ability to inflict friendly damage was originally an option available to servers during the Team Fortress 2 beta. This made setting up an ÜberCharge quicker and also assisted Spies, as it discouraged Spy checking. Valve removed the feature upon release as it was known to cause errors within the game's code, plus gave points to the teamkill, as well as harbor potential for griefing. The low focus on accurate shooting in the game also meant that friendly fire could become an impediment if several classes attempted to cooperate with one another.
Full friendly fire is still available as a server option, but is rarely used in standard play. On these servers, it is impossible to damage friendly buildings or backstab teammates. Lighting your own team on fire is only possible using the Sharpened Volcano Fragment or the Flare Gun when fired at teammates from a certain distance. "Jar-based" weapons, such as Jarate and Mad Milk, have no effect on teammates. It is also possible to Dominate and get Revenge on your teammates. Splash damage from grenades and rockets still have an effect. Also, all of the Sniper's primary weapons (including the Huntsman) deal no damage to allies whatsoever, whether scoped or not.
On some servers friendly fire is temporarily enabled for various reasons, for example while waiting for enough players to join for the round to start, after the round ends, and during Stalemate.
Console optionEdit
- mp_friendlyfire 0/1
In regular playEdit
- If a Medic is healing an enemy Spy that kills a teammate or destroys a building, the Medic will receive an assist as if he were on the Spy's team.
- If a player kills an enemy who is then autobalanced to the other team, the kill feed will report the death as it were a team kill.
Special scenariosEdit
Explosive projectiles
Projectiles, such as grenades, rockets, and Stickybombs (excluding Sentry rockets), will passively go through allies, but your allies will still be affected by splash damage resulting from the explosion of the projectiles.
Weapons that deal fire damage, e.g. Pyro weapons such as the Flamethrower, do not damage or ignite friendly players. The exception to this rule is the Flare Gun which is capable of igniting friendly players at a certain distance.
Critical hits
Critical hits and mini-crits still affect teammates as if they were enemies. Most weapons which have special conditions to crit will also continue to work, such as headshots or hitting a Jarate-covered teammate with the Bushwacka. Notable exceptions include backstabs and crits from the Backburner.
Certain taunts, including Kamikaze, Hadouken, and Fencing, can damage all allies in the area of the taunt.

Hello Globetrotters,
when I'm at home I have the chance to get spoiled by my parents and especially my mom. Even tho I plan to cook for us all and make something delicious I always end up being a little bit to slow and they are always in the kitchen first. When you guys would see our kitchen you would be amazed sometimes what magic we use to make yummy food and 3-4 course menus. But at the end it is the best preparation for my Plan B. Plan A did not workout and next up is Plan B. When the time comes I will tell you what Plan A and Plan B are all about. I can hint you as much as it involves traveling and being a small globetrotter.
Almost a week ago my dad and I went Nordic Walking in the morning and we took our time, 2 hours and my mom decided to welcome us with some delicious matcha waffles which was awesome. Who doesn't dream about coming home to a homemade breakfast? Let me tell you I enjoyed every bite and the good conversations we had over them. But now enough said, let's bring it on.
PS.: The recipe is the base we always use but we make sure to add something special every time.
Mom's waffle recipe
– 200 g Greek yogurt
– 4 tbsp birch sugar
– 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
– some salt
– 200 g flour (spelt flour mixed with chick pea flour)
– 1 tsp baking powder
– 2 tbsp milk
– 2 tsp matcha powder
– sparkling water
Let rest for 5 minutes. Take the waffle iron out and add a little oil on top and bottom, makes it a little easier to remove waffle when done. Continue until all the dough is used up. Serve them with some fruits and some other toppings like honey, peanut butter, etc.

Discussing Harassment at Work
Scenario: When Maria Suarez got her new job, she was happy. As an oil rigger, she would make enough money to support herself and her two children. But after a week of working with a primarily male crew, her happiness was gone. Her coworkers were the reason. At first the men made unwelcome comments about her body. Then sexual gra
