Radio cores in blazars
  We present results and first epoch parsec-scale images from a monitoring program on five $\gamma$--ray loud blazars selected on the basis of their total flux density variability. We observed 0048$-$097, 0235+164, 0954+658, 1510$-$089 and 1749+096 with the Very Long Baseline Array simultaneously at 8.4 GHz and 22 GHz. Comparison between our high quality images and previous results from the literature suggest that 0954+658 and 1510$-$089 are superluminal radio sources, with a Lorentz factor $\gamma$ of the order of $\sim 2 - 3$.
