Looks like everyone will be getting their Just Desserts! I want to thank the new Backers. Even with BPL's experimental Ultra Reduced Expectation Application (UREA), we were still getting nervous that we might not meet our goal. I see that Team Klemperer once again came through with its unique combination of peer pressure and 'teaching by example'. We will post that Mission Patch design soon- we actually have to do some real science this weekend, unfortunately- But the design department is working late at night on the task, rest assured! (In fact the designing takes place during late night resting, but that's the creative process around here). Another photo or two for your consideration:

Well, we are almost out of time! I have no idea what happened to that NYPost article- BPL is not the only giant corporation that has to make sudden editorial changes (they say they'll let me know). The talk at LucidNYC ( http://lucidnyc.com/ )given by the BPL CEO went extremely well, despite his degenerated state after returning from China. That's on top of his degenerated state before going to China, of course. We will be trying to post more updates and catch up. Meanwhile here are some documentary photos and a baffling video of some spacecraft found in a park in Kaifeng. The music you hear is actually emanating from the rockets themselves. We will be pilfering that idea for future missions. Also, I am officially requesting that you guys activate your buddies to help round out this project- even though the students are all fed and have probably utterly forgotten BPL by now as they finish the school year. More soon, including the official Mission Patch design...

The New York Post is supposed to print an article about Kickstarter with pictures of me included tomorrow (23 May, 2010). Just in case you are not a subscriber, I'll tell you whether that happened and an easy way to look at it.

Meantime, here are some more paintings from China (these are just a few; there are like 20 more here: http://expulsive.browerpropulsionlab.com/ ):

Once again we thank our new backers for their support, and in some cases, repeated support. Our Calculation Department is working on the "Easy Touch" metrics so that we may continue to exploit your inability to say 'no' to aerospace products. We enclose here some of the stereo photographs from our latest Outsourcing Meals. The images include a "Perch", which is the fish that doesn't look like a perch, but was called that by a student's phone translator. Also there are a pair of fantastically colored dollops covered with sugar sprinkles, which are, of course, mashed potatoes. There is a general fancy dinner view, which we must admit BPL did not pay for; it was a gracious gift of our host. That doesn't mean its not photogenic though. Also there is an image of a giant earthenware vessel. Inside this thing is a coal brick fire with maybe a couple of hundred little pots stacked on top of each other. Inside each of the pots is one of 50 different kinds of soup. The guy tending the vessel knows the contents of all the pots, which are externally pretty much the same. The vessel is in the #5 student cafeteria. We had 1 Pig Knuckle and 1 Chicken Knee and Toe and Beak.
If you have one of our Stereogram Viewers and an iphone, you can download the picture to the phone and view it in 3D directly in the viewer. We would like some assistance in this experiment to see if the images are easily downloadable from sources such as this one. BPL asks owners of the viewer and an iphone to give it a try and report back here in the 'Comment' section as to the performance of the system. We will send you an extra gift for helping us out- and if you have a Stereogram Viewer, you already know what you can expect from the company that Does Less With More. If you want to see the viewers themselves, have a look at https://bpl-solutions.com/product/03-SV003 .
Thanks, again- We will post more images of outsourced products very soon!

Our outsourced employee will work through the international day of the worker, although he may be the only one doing so. Our ability to use 'certain social networking' interweb nodes has been interrupted, but we can still post updates here and at the BPL Blog ( http://expulsive.browerpropulsionlab.com/ ). Thanks to our new Backers! Also, if one of the paintings that we've posted has particular appeal, we will 'earmark' it, just like they do in Congress back home! This is a service we will now provide by popular request, but it will have to be first come, first served (unlike Congress back home!). We are uploading this little video of some local color, mainly just to see if its possible to load video from here. If you can't see it, could you let us know via "comment" at the bottom of this page?...
