Green Beans with Leeks and Toasted Pinenuts
1 ea leek, trimmed
1 pound green beans, trimmed
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoon pine nuts
Interesting presentation of green beans with Native American flavour, leeks (ramps) and pinenuts. The sweetness of fresh green beans is enhanced by cooking them with leeks. Pine nuts are a welcome addition both for texture and flavor. Serve this
side dish with roasted meats, fish or as part of a buffet. Preparation Cook: 25 Min
1. Bring a medium-sized pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, slice the
leek very thin and soak the slices in a bowl of cold water. Allow the dirt
to settle before removing the leek with a small strainer without
disturbing the dirt.
2. Blanch the green beans in the boiling water until very green and just
tender with a slight crisp to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Using tongs, transfer beans to a bowl of ice water to stop their
cooking. Do not pour out the boiling water.
4. Bring the water back to a boil and cook the leeks for 3 minutes; drain
well. Heat the butter, oil, and pine nuts together in a large saute pan
over medium-high heat. Keep the pan in constant motion to toast the pine
nuts, about 2 minutes.
5. Stir in green beans and leeks. Cook until heated, about 4 minutes.
Season to taste with salt and pepper; serve immediately.

California Republicans know they must do something different to restore the party to power in the state, but they seem farther from agreement on which new direction to take.
Republicans' fall state convention in Anaheim over the weekend found the party at a crossroads. Tea party activists asserted themselves, arguing that a return to conservative roots would energize GOP supporters. Others promoted a more moderate, flexible approach to the issues, designed to win back minority, female and young voters from the dominant Democrats.
Thus, the Question of the Week: Should the California Republican Party be more like its tea party wing, or less?
It's a question not only for Republicans. It's also for people who would vote Republican if the party chose the right path. And for people, including Democrats, who believe a stronger GOP would be good for California politics and government.
As it is, Democrats hold all seven statewide offices, supermajorities in the Legislature, a huge edge in the state's congressional delegation, and a 3-2 advantage over Republicans in voter registration.
At the state convention, divisions were personified by 2014 gubernatorial hopefuls Tim Donnelly, the assemblyman from Hesperia who embraces tea party principles and backs a ballot initiative to overturn the new state law giving transgender school kids access to the restroom facilities of their choice, and Abel Maldonado, the former lieutenant governor who is pro-gay marriage, pro-choice on abortion and supports a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants. Many analysts see a Latino such as Maldonado as the GOP's best hope to defeat Gov. Jerry Brown, but Tea Party Patriots co-founder Mark Meckler reportedly got cheers from supporters when he called Maldonado a "traitor."
Which way should the California Republican Party go? Should it aim to restore its influence by being more conservative or more moderate? Or will other choices determine the future of the California GOP?

International lubricant specialist, Motul, will return to the 24 Hours of Dubai as official lubricant partner for the second consecutive year. Ever growing in international prominence and stature, the year's first major motor sport endurance event will run from 14:00 on Friday, January 13th until the same hour on Saturday, January 14th. As well as being seen on the side of each entry, the Motul name will also be featured on trackside banners and on the podium backdrop.
Successfully involved in all categories of motorsport around the world – more than 50 titles were clinched in 2011 using the company's extensive and motorsport-specific range of products – Motul will be providing technical support to several teams.
These include the current FIA GT1 World Championship title-holding JRM Nissan team, the RJN Motorsport team which has entered two GT3 Nissan 370Z cars and will include current GT1 World Champion Michael Krumm amongst its driver line up, Marcos Racing which is managing one Lotus Evora and one BMW 120d entry, and the two-car GC Automobile Team which will be entering the GC10-V8. With a start field of 75 cars and more than 35 different nationalities, Dubai will become a melting pot of cultures over the coming days.
Endurance racing is particularly valued at Motul as it represents a tremendous test-bench, often in the most demanding and challenging conditions, for its lubrication products. Motul has for several decades been a regular presence in this discipline and developed the specific "Le Mans" lubricant as part of its famous 300V range. Its latest evolution of the 300V Le Mans will be the preferred motor oil used by the Motul supported teams, the same product as used by winning cars and teams at the most famous endurance race in the world, the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Although a relatively new event, the 24 Hours of Dubai has grown considerably in stature over the past few years and the ultra-modern 5.39km Dubai Autodrome track has become a favourite of drivers. It offers a combination of high-speed straights and technical corners which, combined with the size of the entry-list, makes it a challenging prospect for all competitors. Moreover, for the first time in 2012 the event will be broadcasted live on Motors TV. Through its support of the IMSA Performance Matmut team, Motul triumphed in January 2010 and has confidence that the range and diversity of its supported teams will offer an equal opportunity for success in 2012.

We recently launched Team WILD, an exciting new online game in which you have the opportunity to become a science superhero where you must protect and conserve the planet's species and habitats from destruction. While the aim of the game is to engage young people with career opportunities in conservation, Team WILD has certainly caught the imaginations of the big kids in the ARKive office too. In between competitive keyboard tapping, drawing up an office leader board and lunch hours spent practising and perfecting those double jumps, the team here started to think about the environmental issues they could tackle if they really did have superpowers. As we all know, 'with great power comes great responsibility', and with this in mind, the team have come up with some ingenious ways they could use their 'powers' for good.
Kicking things off is Carolyn, our Online Marketing Officer, who took inspiration from our favourite web-slinger and decided that she would like spidey superpowers so that she could create webs to catch poachers. Preventing poaching would be a great step in helping to conserve species such as the Endangered eastern gorilla.
Researcher Jemma went for a marine-themed power – the ability to breathe underwater so that she could free turtles trapped in fishing nets, a common cause of sea turtle mortality.
Online Outreach Manager Ellie decided to think big – literally! She decided that by growing to giant size she would be able to defend habitats and halt the destruction of forests, protecting forest dwelling species like this Barbour's forest tree frog.
Thinking along similar lines, Text Author Liz decided that she'd like the power to make plants grow instantly just by touching the ground so that she could restore all the areas that humans have destroyed, as well as making towns and a bit greener and nicer!
Our Education Officer Helen thought outside the box, and decided that her superhero power would be time travel, so that she could travel back and save species before they go extinct – clever! First on her list would be the baiji, which although still technically listed as Critically Endangered is now sadly thought to be Extinct.
Wildscreen Festival Assistant Becky opted for a stealthy power, the ability to be camouflaged and blend in with any habitat to observe animal behaviour and keep an eye out for poachers! The Critically Endangered black rhino would certainly benefit from such protection.
Finally, Text Author Kaz opted for a more subtle power, the power of persuasiveness, in order to convince more people to make the necessary changes to fight against climate change and species extinction. This is a vital tool in any campaign to protect the environment, and a power that we hope is both realistic and achievable.
Have your say!
We've also been putting this question to our followers on social media and have had some great responses so far. If you haven't already, join the conversation on Facebook and Twitter:
@clairecjl: I'd be super-fast like The Flash and carry out a speedy vaccination program to protect African wild dogs from rabies #speciespower
@jimmac140: Although Aquaman seems kinda useless he must be good for something, Be warned anyone after sharks fin! Aquaman is on it!
@_Daktari_: I want Cupid's Power to shoot arrows of LOVE for all living things in every human heart. It would save all species & their habitats.
@WWFHoBGI: Super-forest-defender – all species everywhere RT @ARKive Superpower would you like and which species would you save with it? #teamwildgame
@Owen_Thornton: there aren't many superpowers that can help. Although, maybe ice control for saving the polar bears could help.
Harry Purple Monkey Dishwasher: Harry would have the superpower to heal all the forests, water, earth & air instantly. :D
Soph Kitty Preston: I would want xray vision to catch ppl smuggling animals and parts across borders.
Demetris Bertzeletos: The power to grant David Attenbourough immortality
Deborah Marland: I'd love the power of being able to make people forget that they are in wars & destroying the planet & make them start to treasure & nurture this world & all living creatures on it. The way it should be… If only……
Jan Hooper: i would like the power to make all weapons not work!
Dominique Hoekman: A bird with gigantic wings to fly whole over planet Earth to protect 'Wildlife'

Of all the roles Loretta Fulbright has served in her 30 years in education, she says being a teacher and principal are what she enjoyed the most.
DENTON | Of all the roles Loretta Fulbright has served in her 30 years in education, she says being a teacher and principal are what she enjoyed the most.
Her reason, "because your purpose is before you every day. You see it in the children's faces."
That's something the South Davidson Middle School principal will miss after retiring this school year. James Ellis Sparks Jr., who comes from East Davidson High School, has been approved as the new administrator.
"It has been an incredible journey," Fulbright, 54, said. "I have had the opportunity to work with every feeder pattern, which gave me a real sense of who we are in Davidson County. I had an opportunity to fulfill a lot of different roles. That has been a real privilege. I think I have enjoyed every role I had in the school system. I've been able to do almost everything I wanted to do. I am leaving a job I truly enjoy. I love working with students and teachers. I'm leaving a career I am absolutely certain I chose the right one."
Fulbright's career started in 1981 as a teacher at Central Davidson High School. She also taught at West Davidson High School and served as an observer evaluator and curriculum coordinator at the elementary level for the system. Fulbright spent time as assistant principal at both E. Lawson Brown and North Davidson middle schools, and as a principal of Davis-Townsend Elementary School. She worked at the central office as director of middle school education and as a human resources director. She was the 1986-87 Teacher of the Year while at WDHS and the 1987-88 Davidson County Schools Teacher of the Year.
"I think Davidson County Schools represents a higher standard in education," she said. "The constant mantra is strive for excellence. Let's strive to be the best we can be. Let's strive to be better than what we do. Everybody that works in the system believes in high standards."
She has served the southern part of the county for the past five years.
"What more can a person ask for … when you know you've been in the right places at the right time, and you know you're making a difference. It's been a fulfilling ride," Fulbright said. "I will definitely miss the students. They are always first with me. I have loved working with them. I will miss the teachers. (South Davidson Middle) has an outstanding staff here. I will miss being a part of this family."
Fulbright has other things she would like to do, which is the reason behind her retiring. She hopes to be able to be an education consultant and teach at the college level. There are already plans to work part time at The Travel Center of Lexington. She's excited about working with the owner, Meetta Simpson, who is a former student.
"I'm looking forward to that. I love to travel," Fulbright said.
She is married to Bryan and has two children, Laura and Matthew. Fulbright, a native of North Wilkesboro, received an English, secondary education (with a minor in communication arts) degree, master's degree in school administration and education specialist degree, all from Appalachian State University. In 1988, ASU gave Fulbright an outstanding achievement award in school administration. She has also served as a personnel administrator on the steering committee of Personnel Administrators of North Carolina from 2003-05 and as an executive board member of the N.C. Principals and Assistant Principals Association since 2008.
Davidson County Schools Superintendent Dr. Fred Mock said Fulbright fought for her students and for resources to be delivered to her schools.
"Loretta Fulbright has served South Davidson Middle School and other schools in our county as a classical school principal," Mock said. "She is compassionate and ever present. She is very loyal to her students and her school community. I am very thankful for Loretta's service to Davidson County Schools, and we wish her the very best in her retirement."
Fulbright took the education route because she had wonderful experiences with teachers from high school. She said with students looking for someone to care about them, it was important to encourage them and help them because that's what being an educator is about.
"I decided I wanted to make that difference in other people's lives. Kids really put what matters in life into perspective for you. I've learned more from them," she said. "That's what it's all about. Being successful is about recognizing what your gifts and talents are, and then capitalizing on them to make a difference. My time here at South Davidson has been a labor of love. I've been very privileged to serve this community — students, teachers and parents. I think that teachers and administrators have such a powerful opportunity to change people's lives."

Scientists Finally Tackle The Age Old 'That's What She Said' Problem
from the it-was-hard-and-it-took-forever dept
Automating this process means identifying sentences that contain potential euphemisms and follow a particular structure - a "hard natural language understanding problem", say the researchers. Kiddon and Brun began by analysing two different bodies of text - one containing 1.5 million erotic sentences, and another with 57,000 from standard literature.Apparently, the system is about 70% accurate so far, but they believe they can get it up to 99.5% accuracy before too long.
They then evaluated nouns, adjectives and verbs with a "sexiness" function to determine whether a sentence is a potential TWSS. Examples of nouns with a high sexiness function are "rod" and "meat", while raunchy adjectives are "hot" and "wet".
Their automated system, known as Double Entendre via Noun Transfer or DEviaNT, rates sentences for their TWSS potential by looking for particular elements such as nouns that can be interpreted in multiple ways. The researchers trained DEviaNT by gathering jokes from twssstories.com and non-TWSS text from sites such as wikiquote.org.
I'm sorry, Watson, but this may be the biggest computing/artificial intelligence story of the year. And, already, the race is on to come up with the appropriate jokes. My favorite so far was this quote for the researchers on this project: "It was hard and it took forever."

S Korea has a interesting phenomenon gong on. It's called eating broadcast where the host virtually dines with the viewers. There are apparently thousands of people doing this. The basic idea is that people get lonely and don't want to eat alone. I shouldn't have to tell you what the dinner table conversation would be if we did this.
A variation would be a cooking class/show with the ingredients posted in advance.
I'm pretty sure there are still free video conferencing systems out there. The focus could be winning over new supporters or building community among existing supporters.
Any female supporters interested in doing this?
BBC World News has a segment on it during Sport News that they are replaying.

Work Monster Attacks
In an unfortunate bit of timing, right now when so much is going in the world of cycling in Los Angeles, with the Mandeville road rage trial in progress, the LA Bike Plan short comings, and plenty of other things going on, I am super slammed for an extended period at work. This whole job thing pays for my bikes and student loans so I must beckon it's call. I won't be able to contribute much to the discussion of cycling for a little while longer, but in the meantime there are lots of other great blogs and news sources following what's going on. If you aren't already reading some of the other cycling blogs in LA, check out my links in the sidebar.

Get Involved, Discuss The L.A. Bicycle Plan With Peers
From Westside BikeSide
This Saturday the Bike Writers Collective invites you to change the course of cycling in LA. Join us Saturday, at 1pm at LA City College, adjacent to the Bike Kitchen, to review, discuss, and critique the draft LA Bike Master Plan with your peers (Facebook event). It's the LA Bike Working Group, and we'll be working to inform, learn, and focus on the LABMP. I'll be there, Stephen Box will be there, along with many others to facilitate the discussion. We'll briefly discuss the plan, and then promptly break into groups to discuss it more energetically.
This is your opportunity to engage in a free for all of ideas. Together we can become better informed and more effective as a community in owning our Bike Plan! Unlike the upcoming community meetings, sponsored by the city, this meeting will focus on no holds barred discussion by cyclists, for cyclists. This is unstructured, knock down, drag out, nitty gritty discussion that will leave you bursting at the seems with ideas and information. Coming out of it we hope to have a more focused, deep, and effective community critique of the plan for the community meetings.
Bring your laptop so that we can look over the plan together. (It's 600 pages, so we ain't printing it! SAVE A F*&%ING TREE!)
We lost LACC but have the Fellowship Hall of the 7th Day Adventist Church on Hollywood Blvd @ Van Ness.

Tragedy On A Bicycle Built For Two
Something about this tragic photo pierced through and really hit me hard even though I've gotten pretty jaded lately. Transportation issues can turn into a mess of statistics, but this puts a very human face on the consequences of reckless driving . This little girl's parents, Gregory and Alexandra Bruehler, two experienced road cyclists, were riding a tandem bicycle together when they were prematurely taken out of this existence together after being dragged 200 feet by a driver who unexpectedly swerved into the shoulder where the couple had been riding. The lost innocence of this girl's face is the reason we simply must fight for and demand safer roads for everyone. No criminal charges have been made against the driver, and the incident was written off as just an accident as most tragedies on the road are.
Where is the accountability, what good are laws, and drivers licenses if in the end the outcome of most crashes are considered blameless accidents without penalty even when clearly one party was at fault. The State of Texas was on the verge of passing a bill with explicit legal protections for vulnerable road users such as cyclists and pedestrians, with common sense measures like defining safe passing distance as some states have already done. After years of work from Texas activists, the bill went through the senate with a landslide 25-6 majority, only to be shot down by veto from Governer Rick Perry. Ugh.
My girlfriend and I are also both experienced cyclists who occasionally tandem ride, and dream of having a nicer tandem suitable for longer travels some day. I could easily put my self into the shoes of that couple, loving life and riding bikes together. In researching more about this story I stumbled across the Twitter account of the mother, who like any serious American cycling enthusiast was following the likes of cycling greats like Lance Armstrong and Levi Liephiemer as I also do myself. Sadly their 7 year old daughter now has to go on without them though I'm sure they'll never be forgotten.
These are human beings on the road out there and even if your out there doing everything right, all it takes is a few seconds of someone else careening unexpectedly off course to change lives forever. I hope we can live to see a day without tragedy like this as a daily occurrence in cities and towns across our country. Whether you ride a bicycle, a motorcycle, drive a car or even just walking across the street, we all can die out there when due care is not taken by all parties.
I first saw this story on the Tucson Bike Lawyer blog with a link to the original news story. More in depth blogging on this incident and the failed vulnerable road user bill by San Antonio local Veronica Flores. The obituary with more details about the couple is posted here.
A trust fund has been set up for 7 year old Kylie Bruehler and donations can be sent to Kylie Bruehler Benefit Fund, c/o 24165 IH-10 West, Ste. 217-270, San Antonio, Texas 78257-1160.

Danang is considered an ideal destination for investment. The result shall be incredible where we evaluate on the following aspects:
Danang – one of the strategic economic centers of Vietnam's central region
In March 13th, 2004, the prime minister signed a decision to establish central region's strategic economic center, including 05 provinces and cities: Thua Thien Hue, Danang, Quang Nam, Quang Ngai and Binh Dinh to promote potential, geographical location and competitive advantages and step by step develop this economic region to become one of the most dynamic economic region in the country. In particular, Danang is defined as the role of nuclear motivation for promoting the development of the central region and the highlands.
Danang – eastern gateway of east – west economic corridor (EWEC)
EWEC is one of five economic corridor developed by the initiative of the Asia development bank in the greater Mekong sub – region.
Currently, the road system in Laos, Thailand and the road line from Danang to Savannakhet are completed. The second international bridge spanning the Mekong river was completed in the end of 2006 to facilitate the circulation of goods and passengers by road line from Danang to the northeastern provinces of Thailand and vice versa. East-west economic corridor not only provide an opportunity for the country on the path of promoting regional cooperation and improve living standards for the people but also enable businesses better access to the raw materials market services, capital, labor and technology with the purpose of creating favorable conditions for investment and trade across the border and diversifying economic activity and exports and promoting tourism development

In Your Anger, Please Mercifully Publish My Work:
An Honest Account of a Contemporary Jewish Publishing Odyssey
by Dovid Bashevkin[1]
My recently published sefer, "Berogez Racheim Tizkor" (trans: "In your anger, you shall remember to have mercy"), whose title is based on the verse in Habbakuk 3:2 and traditionally recited each morning during Tahanun, really began as a tweet. In March 2014, I tweeted, "Considering writing a sefer entitled "Aveiros K'Hilchisa."
Considering writing a sefer entitled "Aveiros K'Hilchisa."
— D Bash (@DBashIdeas) March 5, 2014
The tweet was originally intended as a satire of the many seforim that have been published as halakhic digests of obscure practical issues in Judaism. If there could be an Ittush be-Halakhah (trans: "Sneezing in Jewish Law," - an actual pamphlet shown to me by my dear friend and devoted consigliere Reb Menachem Butler), why not an "Aveiros K'Hilchisa"?[2]
However, as often happens, what began as satire became a very real project. Following the passing of my Zaide, Mr. William Bashevkin, and last living grandparent, I thought it would be a fitting tribute to their memory to publish a work of Torah. Additionally, coupling sorrow with joy, my marriage this past year to Tova (née Flancbaum) gave me the inspiration to begin my relationship with a project of Torah scholarship. The sefer, which is a small collection of essays discussing halakhic issues related to sin and the path towards teshuva, is based upon shiurim I have had the opportunity to deliver periodically at the Young Israel of Lawrence Cedarhurst. With special appreciation to Mr. Joel Mael, who originally invited me and has been a continual source of guidance and counsel, the chevra who have participated in the shiurim are really my partners in this effort - without them, none of this would have been possible.
Nonetheless, publishing a sefer has historically, and remains, an exercise marked with rabbinic ambivalence. As I note in the pesicha many great rabbinic figures looked suspiciously at the growing trend of publication. The Chatam Sofer in his Responsa Orach Chaim #208 famously considered those who publish works for their own self-promotion to be in violation of the prohibition of writing down Torah sh'Baal Peh, which, in his view, was only permissible if the work was truly written with pure intention.[3] Indeed, in a different response (vol. 6, #61), The Chatam Sofer laments the overwhelming increase in seforim being published.
Why, then, publish a sefer?
This question, I believe, has added import in contemporary society when the inclination for self-promotion and aggrandizement has seemingly never been stronger. So, then, is the publication of a sefer just an exercise in intellectual, albeit spiritual, vanity? This question has been addressed by many, including on the pages on the Seforim blog, most notably by Yaakov Rosenes in his post "Publish and Perish or Digital Death" (link). What follows are my experiences and brief thoughts on the issue of seforim publication.
Firstly, as Rabbi Yaakov Levitz, a noted seforim distributor in Brooklyn, mentioned to me, the only thing that sells is "Soloveitchik, stories and pictures."[4] No one should publish a sefer as a venture to make money. Aside from the questionable motive, it just won't work. The only works that have a faint chance are those that will be purchased for Bar Mitzvah gifts. Other works that deal with more scholarly or intricate Talmudic issues will have a hard time even recouping the cost of publication.[5]
Financial investments aside, I published this work for three reasons:
Firstly, as I mentioned earlier, the sefer is dedicated to the memory of my grandparents and in honor of my marriage. Admittedly, these reasons are rather self-centered. I do, however, think they are relatively justifiable. While I grant that there are certainly less narcissistic ways of memorializing or honoring loved ones, I do think that sharing Torah, when possible, is appropriate. As Rabbi Hershel Schachter notes in the generous michtav bracha that he wrote to my sefer, the greatest honor one can accord their ancestors is sharing Torah. While the quality of the Torah may be questionable, I hope the honor it brings to their memory is just the same.
Secondly, throughout the sefer, the works of Reb Zadok of Lublin, who I had the opportunity to study under Professor Yaakov Elman at Yeshiva University's Bernard Revel Graduate School of Jewish Studies, and those of Rav Yitzchok Hutner both feature prominently.[6] I was first introduced to the works of Reb Zadok of Lublin by Rabbi Dr. Ari Bergmann of Lawrence, NY, and the door to Rav Yitzchok Hutner was kindly opened to me by Rabbi Ari Waxman of Yeshivat Shaalvim. Those familiar with these thinkers understand their relevance to the modern reader. Unfortunately, particularly Reb Zadok and the larger school of his rebbe, Rabbi Mordechai Leiner of Izbica, are often misunderstood and frequently misinterpreted.[7] My hope was to develop my own creative ideas within their school of thought, while still remaining loyal to the type of avodas hashem I think they hoped to engender. I don't know if I was successful, but I hope the sefer continues to bring the much needed attention these thinkers deserve in contemporary times.
Lastly, the Kotzker Rebbe famously remarked, "All that is thought should not be said, all that is said should not be written, all that is written should not be published, and all that is published should not be read."[8] Undoubtedly, not everything in this work, or nearly any work, should have been published. In some ways I am comforted by the saying of Reb Chaim Brisker that even one valuable chiddush within an otherwise subpar work, can redeem an entire sefer, as Rav Hershel Schachter observes in Nefesh Harav (1994), page 334. Parenthetically, in Rabbi Schachter's introduction to his later work, Ginat Egoz (2006), he shared a wonderful anecdote that after mentioning the aforementioned saying of Reb Chaim during a shiur at Yeshivat Shaalvim, the Rosh Yeshiva approached him and (jokingly?) said that his entire shiur was worth hearing just because of that one story from Reb Chaim.
No one will like, enjoy, or appreciate everything in a sefer, but I think the one insight that illuminates, explains or inspires another makes the entire work worth it. And, as often happens in the course of writing, the one who is inspired is the author himself. Rav Yaakov Yisrael Kanievsky, The Steipler Gaon, often advised writing personal Torah ideas as a means of cultivating a stronger relationship with Torah (for example, see his collected letters, Karyana de-Igarta #41). In fact, Yeshivat Chachmei Lublin had a special seder at the end of the day (at 10PM following a half-hour seder set to review the Rif) for students to write and develop their own chiddushei Torah.[9] We are willing to take risks in the pursuit of so many other goals, why not jeopardize our precision and flawlessness by sharing more published Torah? While I admire the Brisker allegiance to publishing perfection, I think many students have missed the opportunity to kindle an excitement for Torah in others and themselves by dwelling too much on their unworthiness in the endeavor. It only takes one chiddush or one idea to make it worthwhile.
I knowingly may sound a bit too optimistic and/or forgiving when it comes to seforim publication and am glad to be guilty of such. In fact, it is the theme of my sefer. As I mentioned the title, Berogez Racheim Tizkor is said during Tachanun. In Tachanun this line is followed by the verse in Tehillim 123:3 which begins "Ki Hu Yada Yitzreinu." Together these verses form a meaningful plea - that though we invoke God's anger, we request his mercy for God knows our inner nature. Much of the work elaborates on that request. Namely, how the limitations of our free-will relate to our shortfalls and failures. The work discusses the halakhic and theological implications of sin and the often inevitability of failure. The underlying message, I hope, is one of comfort and optimism.
Here are some of the topics discussed in the sefer:
● The status of apostates in Jewish law and thought;
● Do we always have the free will to avoid sin? And, assuming they do exist, is repentance required for such sins?;
● What should you wear to a sin?;[10]
● If spiritual struggle is redemptive, is it permissible to seek out situations of spiritual challenge?;
● The desultory appearances of the mysterious personality "Geniva" in Tractate Gittin;
● A contextual analysis of the Talmudic statement "A man doesn't stand on words of Torah unless he fails in them," (Gittin 43a);
● The halakhic import of granting someone forgiveness verbally, while internally still harboring internal resentment;
● An analysis of issues surrounding the concept of Averah Lishmah in contemporary times;
Additionally, the sefer is book-ended by two essays related to Torah study in general, respectively considering the relationship between Blessings on the Study of Torah HaTorah and the Blessing of the Kohanim, and the role of Converts and Kohanim in the development of the Oral Law. Copies of Berogez Racheim Tizkor are available for purchase at Biegeleisen in Boro Park, and is currently available online here.
I hope Berogez Racheim Tizkor is read with the same measure of mercy which, especially nowadays, is required of any sefer to be written.

He studied at Yeshivat Shaalvim, the Ner Israel Rabbinical College and at Yeshiva University, where he completed a Master's degree in Polish Hassidut, focusing on the thought of Reb Zadok ha-Kohen of Lublin, under the guidance of Professor Yaakov Elman. He is currently pursuing a doctorate in Public Policy at the Milano School of International Affairs.
[2] Ittush be-Halakhah has previously been reviewed by David Assaf, "On Sneezing in Jewish Law," Oneg Shabbes (1 July 2012), available here; and a mention in the infamous thirteenth footnote to Marc B. Shapiro, "Concerning the Zohar and Other Matters," the Seforim blog (29 August 2012), available here.
[3] As I also note, this is in accordance with the more restrictive view of his Rebbe, R. Nathan Adler who understood that the prohibition of writing down the Oral Law was not completely abrogated and, in certain instances, remains in place even in contemporary time; see Sdei Chemed, ma'arechet 4, no. 22, for a longer halakhic discussion of his views. For an interesting parallel, see Ignaz Goldziher, "The Writing Down of the Hadith," in Muslim Studies, vol. 2 (London: George Allen, 1971), 181-187.
[4] Rabbi Levitz' most (in)famous sefer that he distributed was, of course, Rabbi Nathan Kamenetsky's quite-celebrated and much-talked-about Making of a Godol in 2002. Though an improved edition of this work was published in 2004 -- with its "List of Improvements" detailed in volume two, pages 1427-1429 -- Rabbi Levitz was not the distributor for the second volume.
[5] In terms of the cost of publication there are two major expenditures: editing and printing. Editing costs vary. For some is just gentle linguistic touch-ups and proofing, for others the editor functions more as a ghost writer. I had the opportunity to work with a brilliant editor, Rabbi Avshalom Gershi, who has worked on some of the recent seforim of Rav Soloveitchik, most recently the first volume of his chiddushim on Gittin. Aside from his fair price, actually writing the sefer yourself is a major cost-cutting initiative I would urge thrifty authors to take. In terms of printing the price varies in terms of the amount of copies published, the length of the work, and the quality of the page and cover. Since my sefer is quite small and short and I eschewed editing that even bordered on ghostwriting my costs were well under five thousand dollars. For others who have larger works and print more than the industry minimum of five hundred copies, the costs can rise into the tens of thousands. Hence, the rapid rise in dedication pages.
[6] For Professor Elman's articles on Reb Zadok ha-Kohen of Lublin written over the past three decades, see Yaakov Elman, "R. Zadok Hakohen on the History of Halakah," Tradition 21:4 (Fall 1985): 1-26; Yaakov Elman, "Reb Zadok Hakohen of Lublin on Prophecy in the Halakhic Process," Jewish Law Association Studies 1 (1985): 1-16; Yaakov Elman, "The History of Gentile Wisdom According to R. Zadok ha-Kohen of Lublin," Journal of Jewish Thought & Philosophy 3:1 (1993): 153-187; Yaakov Elman, "Progressive Derash and Retrospective Peshat: Nonhalakhic Considerations in Talmud Torah," in Shalom Carmy, ed., Modern Scholarship in the Study of Torah: Contributions and Limitations (Northvale, NJ: Jason Aronson, 1996), 227-87; and Yaakov Elman, "The Rebirth of Omnisignificant Biblical Exegesis in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries," Jewish Studies Internet Journal 2 (2003): 199-249; and Yaakov Elman, "Autonomy and its Discontents: A Meditation on Pahad Yitshak," Tradition 47:2 (Summer 2014): 7-40. For recent latest scholarship Rav Yitzchok Hutner, see Shlomo Kasirer, "Repentance in the Thought of R. Isaac Hutner," (PhD dissertation, Bar-Ilan University, 2009; Hebrew).
On the occasion of the 110th yahrzeit of Reb Zadok ha-Kohen of Lublin zy"a five years ago, I published a 5,000 word essay in Dovid Bashevkin, "Perpetual Prophecy: An Intellectual Tribute to Reb Zadok ha-Kohen of Lublin on his 110th Yahrzeit," (with an appendix entitled: "The World as a Book: Religious Polemic, Hasidei Ashkenaz, and the Thought of Reb Zadok,"), the Seforim blog (18 August 2010), available here.
[7] I will be elaborating on this theme in a forthcoming essay.

Since news broke over the weekend that a bipartisan group of senators was working on a plan to legalize the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S. and offer them a path to citizenship (but not without first paying financial penalties), and President Obama unveiled a similar proposal Tuesday promising some relief to immigrants while boosting border security and efforts to combat illegal hiring, readers have sent us more than two dozen letters on the topic.
As is often the case with immigration reform, many of the letters take uncompromising yes-or-no positions on the concept itself, largely reflecting the debate in Washington up until this past weekend. But several others weigh the finer points of immigration reform, including the political implications for both parties, the rapidly changing demographics of the U.S. and whether it makes sense for a path to citizenship to include so many obstacles in the form of stiff fines and more.
Here is a selection of those letters. Check latimes.com/letters later this week for more commentary on immigration reform.
John T. Chiu of Newport Beach sees a political motive behind Obama's and the Democrats' embrace of immigration reform:
"Although I support the legalization of undocumented immigrants who possess skills sorely needed in our society or who have served in our armed forces, I fail to understand granting nearly wholesale amnesty to all. I think the Democrats should be upfront about their motive to garner more votes.

Posted by Bob on November 10, 2003
In Reply to: German history posted by Brian from Shawnee on November 10, 2003
: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : In the November 2003 issue of Boys' Life, which is the official magazine of the Boy Scouts of America, Ernst Mach is identified only as a "European scientist" who did expmeriments with sound and whom the speed of sound is named after. So I'm left thinking, "Hmm, probably German, but could be Swiss or Austrian." I have a feeling that this specific fact was hidden from me on purpose, but I don't know what the purpose could be.
: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Is this a new trend? Is it the next logical step after losing the specific identifiers "Chinese", "Japanese", etc., for Asians? Is it an American thing?
: : : : : : : : : : : : : : I don't think so. Probably a writer who was too lazy to find out the exact country.
: : : : : : : : : : : : :
: : : : : : : : : : : : : Surely everybody knows that Ernst Mach was Irish. I put all this confused thinking down to the poor quality of US University education.
: : : : : : : : : : : : Excuse me?
: : : : : : : : : : : Two comments: One, this is Boy's Life we're talking about, which is trying to present some interesting information to a young audience without making it overly complicated. And two, if anyone would bother to look before they speak, they would find that Mach WAS a 'European' scientist. He was born in Brno, studied in Vienna, joined the faculty at Graz, and finally returned to Prague. It has long been common for European scientists to move around from country to country; many studied in Germany, particularly.
: : : : : : : : : : : I thought Patrick's irony was funny--AND to the point. (Even though Mach was of course not Irish at all.)
: : : : : : : : : : no, no, no - the Mach was named after MachDonald the European very fast food entrepreneur.
: : : : : : : : : : "The trouble with the French is that they have no word for entrepreneur"...GWB
: : : : : : : : : I'll accept the explanation that European scientists move around so much that it makes their nationality hard to figure out. But I'd like to go on record as saying that I'd prefer some other way of saying it. Maybe my real problem is with the Boys' Life style guide...
: : : : : : : : I have probably met a dozen writers while working at a university library. I know some of them often borrowed a word or phrase form some reference source. Whomever wrote "European ..." may have simply taken it from a reference book. The fact that people increasingly move around makes words such as European or American increasingly meaningless. How many years did Einstein spend in the US? In Europe?
: : : : : : : Using references from the opposite side of the pond is often used to add credibility -in both Europe and America, actually. Each side thinks the other is more advanced in some ways and hopelessly backward in others. Usually though, it's six of one and half a dozen of the other.
: : : : : : For Einstein, "German-born scientist" or perhaps "Albert Einstein, of Princeton University", depending on context. Otherwise, what would he be, a "Euro-American scientist"? That would be technically correct but I'd be rankled by it.
: : : : : : I looked up Ernst Mach on the internet, because I really did not know what country he came from. He was identified as "Austrian" by two sites, and "Moravian" by another. (Funny, I thought Moravian was a religion, and I thought I knew a lot about geography.) I'd have to go with Austrian if I was writing an article that mentioned him. I do believe the orignal writer of the Boys' Life article had that information available and either he or the editor chose "European".
: : : : :
: : : : : Mach was born in 1838, near rather than 'in' Brno, the capital city of Moravia. Moravia is east of Bohemia, the capital city of which is Prague. Both of these provinces are now part of the Czech Republic. In 1838, they, and much else of Central Europe, were part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. There was at that time no such thing as 'Germany'; most of what we now think of as being Germany was then the Holy Roman Empire.
: : : : : Mach spoke and wrote in German. According to an older edition of Encyclopedia Britannica, in 1879-80 he fought against the introduction of the Czech language at the University of Prague[http://59.1911encyclopedia.org/M/MA/MACH_ERNST.htm]. In nearly all reference sources he is identified as being Austrian, and doubtless he must have thought of himself as being Austrian. In 1901 he was made a member of the Austrian House of Peers. But virtually all of his active career was spent in Czech-speaking Prague. He died in 1916 in what was by then a unified Germany. (About 20 years later the Austrian Reichskanzler of Germany, having absorbed what was left of Austria into Germany, did a deal with the British PM allowing him to 'protect' the people of German and German-speaking heritage living in what was at that time Czechoslovakia from the Czechs and the Slovaks, to bring "peace with honour", "peace for our time".)
: : : : : But what does it mean to be 'Austrian'? You tell a kid that today, and he, being a Boy Scout, finds a map of Austria and sees a pretty small country. So how come if Mach was born in the Czech Republic, and spent most of his life there, is he Austrian?
: : : : : This is not to suggest that the author of the Boys' Life article did his homework; maybe, maybe not. But after all, isn't 'European' just as good a description?
: : : : : ('Moravian': a religious sect called the United Brethren, an offshoot of the Hussites in Bohemia [http://www.onelook.com/?loc=bm&w=moravian].)
: : : : I can't agree that "European" is just as good as any other description. "A scientist from what is now the Czech Republic" is more acceptable to me. In fact I think I've seen many references like that one, with all the geographical changes in Europe in the past decade and a half.
: : : : I recognize that this is a matter of personal taste, and I understand that "European" is a technically accurate description.
: : : : I am impressed by the amount of learning and research that goes into these discussions (yes, I really am, no joke!), and I am delighted if I can make even the smallest contribution. I would therefore like to mention that Einstein had no official connection with Princeton University, but was employed at the Institute for Advanced Study, another Princeton institution of higher learning. Also, the Holy Roman Empire breathed its last in 1806, when Franz II decided to call it quits as Kaiser. (The later German Empires were even less Holy and much less Roman.)
: : You're quite right, Smokey; thanks for the correction.
: Indeed. I thought I read an article as a boy, that said Einstein was a professor "at Princeton". Can I blame it on Boys' Life? Nah, I probably just saw "at Princeton" and jumped to a conclusion.
While we're on about nationalities, and Einstein, there's a famous quote from Albert himself, when asked about his nationality. He was living in France at the time (pre-Princeton) and said, "If my theory of relativity proves true, France will say I'm French, and Germany will say I'm German. If it proves false, the French will say I'm German, and the Germans will say I'm a Jew."

State Rep. Jason Barickman, R-Champaign, came to Pontiac Monday and brought along a Chicago alderman he met as an Edgar Fellow last summer, taking time to show people what they've learned, that both Democrats and Republicans can work together for the greater good of the state.
Ameya Pawar and Barickman met in August during the inaugural three-day program founded by former Governor Jim Edgar.
"It is an initiative to attract young people, primarily those under the age of 40, to a development in leadership conference where we got to know each other. Gov. Edgar's push to us was that we need to push relationships with one another and make Illinois work in our respective futures. Ameya and I met through it and formed a friendship and decided to take to heart some of what Gov. Edgar is trying to inspire us to do and learn a little more about one another," Barickman explained.
Pawar, 32, who is currently the youngest Chicago alderman ever elected, and Barickman, a little older at 37, have sustained the bond made during the summer and have decided to continue what they learned.
"What I find to me most interesting about the Edgar Fellowship is it's not whether you're a Democrat or Republican or somewhere in between, it's if you take away all of that, at the end of the day, we all need to work together. I know there's a lot of divisiveness out there from both sides of the aisle but I think we have to start figuring out ways to think of things as a state. Not everything's Chicago-centric and not everything is downstate-centric. Chicago helps make the state work just as downstate makes the rest of the state work. That's what I got out of it, which is really nice," Pawar said.
Pawar was elected to the Chicago City Council as an alderman of the 47th Ward in February of 2011, and has enjoyed his job as an alderman of the third biggest city in the United States.
"I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago and I moved back to Chicago for graduate school. I threw my hat in the ring in 2009, knocked on a lot of doors and spent a lot of time running a grassroots campaign and it worked out and it's been great," he said.
Barickman, who represents the 105th District and will become the senator of the 53rd District come January, said the program taught him to dig a little deeper when making decisions for the area he represents.
"For me, in the legislature, we vote on a lot of legislation that impacts Chicago either directly or indirectly and I'm here to represent Central Illinois, but I think those that elect me want me to do my homework and understand the complexity of our entire state, not just where we're from, so the opportunity to learn and build some of those relationships will be helpful for me in serving my district," said Barickman.
Pawar said that this is a chance to correct some of the stereotypes that Chicago and downstate residents have of each other.
"I think it's great because I think a lot of people, whether in the media or political pundits, like to say how different we all are. I think a major takeaway is that we're really not all that different. People are going to disagree on some issues but at the end of the day, we're all Illinoisians," Pawar said.
Pawar spent the day in Pontiac and Bloomington/Normal, getting to know residents and leaders from the areas, and the pair is in the process of planning for Barickman to do the same in the city of Chicago soon.
"We've talked about it but haven't done it yet, but we hope to," Barickman said.
Finding common ground

Valentina Marano (Moore School of Business, University of South Carolina)
We examine firms' adoption of CSR practices as a function of their embeddedness in global business networks. We propose that global business networks provide access to resources and information and channel CSR-related institutional influences to the focal firm. We find that the composite strength of the institutional requirements concerning CSR within the global business network and the heterogeneity of these institutional influences drive the firm's decision to adopt CSR-related practices. We also find that firms are more likely to adopt CSR-related practices when they conduct business in countries with more stringent institutional contexts regarding CSR than their home country environment. In addition, results show that the nature of the economic relationships between firm and business partner also affects their power as conduits of institutional pressures. Our empirical results, based on a longitudinal study of 710 U.S. corporations, provide general support for the embeddedness hypotheses and highlight certain nuances of how embeddedness works.

Flamenco is "exported", performed and studied worldwide, and is a prime attraction and Andalusian way of life.

About Spillers
Spillers History
Spillers - The Oldest Record Shop In the World
Spillers was founded in 1894 by Henry Spiller at its original location was in the Queen's Arcade, Cardiff, where the shop specialised in the sale of phonographs, wax phonograph cylinders and shellac phonograph discs. In the early 1920s, Henry's son Edward took over the running of the business and, with the aid of the popular accordionist and band leader, Joe Gregory, sold musical instruments alongside the pre-recorded music. In the late 1940s, Henry moved the shop down the road to a larger premises on The Hayes, where it happily thrived until June 2010.
Following a major redevelopment of The Hayes (and the inevitable increases in rental prices) Spillers was relocated to 31, The Morgan Arcade and remained there for four and a half years. In January 2015 it relocated to a more suitable and permanent space just around the corner at 27, The Morgan Arcade.
Over the years Spillers has seen and supplied many varied types of pre-recorded music. Today we pride ourselves on our diverse selection of music on both compact dics and good old vinyl at very competitive prices. This site is always growing so let us know if you can't see what you'd like on here, and we'll add it or get one for you.

Geronimo: A Biography
Geronimo is a Native American word meaning "One Who Yawns". Geronimo was a famous Native American leader of Chiricahua Apaches, who frequently fought against both American and Mexican soldiers in the West in an attempt to stop encroachment upon Apache lands. Geronimo's band of natives was one of the last to acknowledge American control of the American West. Geronimo was born on June 16, 1829 in what is now the state of Arizona, but at the tim...

Who you admire politically?:
Minerd: Ralph Nader. One of the reasons we have so many consumer rights, safe cars and clean air is because of him.
Richardson: "It's those public servants that always remember they work for the people. That's why I made those two promises, to not run for office while I'm attorney general ... and I won't accept a paycheck until the economy turns around. ... Politics is not my family business. I didn't grow up with a family that's been in politics all my life."
Wilson: "My dad, Joe, who taught me the values of hard work and public service. He taught me how to love serving others; it was because of those values that led my three brothers and myself to serve our country in the military. Also, Ronald Reagan, who gave our country more optimism and leadership than anyone I can think of in modern political history."
What is the most important challenge facing the next state attorney general?:
Minerd: Obtaining funding to support youth mentoring and mediation, and reducing the non-violent prison population, addressing violent crime and prosecuting environmental crimes.
"I don't have a law degree but the attorney general's job description is the chief prosecuting officer who supervises the prosecution of crime."
Richardson: "The most important challenge for the attorney general's office is to take the politics out of it." He says he is the only candidate who has experience in the federal courts and appeals court, and who has pledged not to accept a paycheck until the state unemployment rate returns to single digits, nor run for higher office at the same time he is serving as attorney general.
Wilson: Our next attorney general must not only keep families safe, but also protect our families and their freedoms from unconstitutional laws such as Obamacare. As a prosecutor and Iraq war combat veteran, I will continue to fight for our families and freedoms, just as I've done on the battlefield and in the courtroom.
What is the type of crime posing the greatest threat to the public?:
Minerd: Domestic violence and the cycle of abuse. "We need a coordinated statewide victim advocacy program. When I went through the court system (as a stalking victim), I had a really good victim advocate. (But) she was so overworked. To put violent criminals in jail you have to get the victim out there pushing ... and you have to have somebody behind them."
Richardson: "We've got to protect the people of South Carolina from whatever it is that threatens them, whether Internet and sexual predators that target our children or financial financial schemes that target our seniors or career politicians who abuse our trust."
Wilson: As a prosecutor, I have put criminals behind bars for an array of crimes, all which pose the greatest threat to South Carolinians in the minds of the victims we must protect on a daily basis.
How would you compare to the current attorney general?:
Minerd: "I think (McMaster) has done a lot of good work on domestic violence and the Catawba River ... I would follow up on a lot of the work he has done but do more to advocate for consumer rights," including issues before the Public Service Commission and Department of Health and Environmental Control board.
Richardson: "I would be much more aggressive prosecuting public corruption and environmental crimes. It's most important to have somebody who's an attorney and not a politician. That's why I think my experience in federal courts and appeals court is important." He said unlike McMaster, he would not be campaigning for higher office while serving as attorney general.
Wilson: "I would continue current programs, such as cracking down on Internet predators, gangs, and working towards eliminating domestic violence while bringing 21st century technology in order to better aid law enforcement in keeping our families safe."

Wallenpaupack Area wrestler is headed to Hershey after finishing third at Northeast Regionals
On the eve of this year's Northeast Regional tournament, Steve Krushnowski had high hopes of getting at least one of his wrestlers through to states.
Jared Wehrmann, Chase Gallik, Kyle Hartman and Kenny Roman were all making the journey to Liberty High School and Wallenpaupack Area's veteran coach was oozing cautious optimism.
"If we wrestle the way I know we can and we stay within ourselves, we really have an excellent chance," he said.
"The competition in this region is just brutal, though, so anything can happen."
As it turned out, Paupack put together a solid effort, posting a total of eight wins and advancing Wehrmann to the PIAA tourney.
Paupack's 182-pounder bounced back from an early loss to record four straight wins and finish third in the bracket.
Sadly for local fans, his teammates all saw their season come to a close.
Gallik won three bouts at 132, but was eliminated in the consolation semis.
Roman won one bout at heavyweight, but then fell during wrestlebacks.
Hartmann ran into a buzz saw at 220 and was shut out in his medal quest.
Wehrmann now advances to Hershey for this year's state meet, which is slated to begin Thursday evening at the Giant Center.
On the Dais
Jared earned an opening round bye at regionals, but was then promptly dealt a critical blow in the quarters.
Wehrmann was pinned by Dennis Rivas of Allentown Dieruff, who would eventually finish second.
"That was completely unexpected," said Coach Krushnowski. "Jared had beaten Rivas pretty handily early in the season, so that had us a little bit worried."
This loss dropped Jared into the consolations where he squared off against Frank Mack of Mastery Charter School. Wehrmann pinned his opponent in the second period (3:44), earning him a berth in the quarters.
There, he hammered out a 7-2 decision over Anthony Piscopo of LaSalle.
Jared recorded his second fall of the tournament at the expense of St. Joe's Prep's Tom Johnson (2:36).
"We kept telling Jared that he's as good as anyone there," Coack Krushnowski said. "All he had to do was stick to the gameplan, stay focused and wrestle hard."
Wehrmann executed that simple strategy to perfection in the consolation final against Stroudsburg's James Palmisano. He battled his way to an early lead, then held on for a 5-2 win.
This victory gave Jared a bronze medal and punched his ticket to states.
"I'm incredibly proud of him," Coach Krushnowski said. "He showed great mental toughness and that's what you need to succeed at this level."
Wehrmann will head off to Hershey with a sparkling 41-3 record. He will open his quest for a state medal against Alex Price of North Penn on Thursday.
Devastating Loss
Gallik entered regionals looking for both his 100th career win and a trip to the Giant Center.
Chase got off on the right foot by pinning Connor Mauriello of St. Joe's Prep in 5:30.
He then suffered an expected loss to Nazareth's Chase Zemenak, who went on to win the gold medal.
Gallik bounced back quickly, clamping Adam White of Father Judge in the second period (2:15).
After battling his way to a 4-2 decision over LaSalle's Andrew McLaren, Chase faced yet another encounter with archrival Jalen Palmer of DV.
Unfortunately for all the Paupack fans in attendance, Gallik suffered a 12-7 loss and saw his season come to a disappointing end.
"That may be the first time my heart actually broke for one of my wrestlers," said Coach Krushnowski. "Chase is a great kid and I'm so sad that he didn't get through."
Gallik ends an otherwise outstanding season with 99 career victories.
Over & Out
Roman opened up by pinning Andrew Gunning of Bethlehem Liberty in the first round at 285.
Kenny then saw his dreams of a state medal dashed with back-to-back losses.
He dropped an 8-5 decision to Archbishop Ryan's Joe Hansbury, then ended his run with a 13-3 setback at the hands of Pleasant Valley's Ahmad Curtis.
Hartman went 0-2 at 220, suffering losses to Tom Alcaro of Emmaus (10-2) and Pittston Area's Jake Vaxmonsky (5-1).

Also credit to ArkBrik for the design of the pwnys themselves!
Heroine; Haruko with Space Vespa.
The Discord, Landship:
Photo's glitching for some reason.
Group shot of the still WIP force. The pile of briks is 1 of the 3 boxes I've bought, minus parts to make pwnys.
Closer shot of the force.
Human part of the force for now, You can probably tell 2 scouts, Space Rambo, Arnold Schwarzenegger with a deployable HMG, a vet, Predator with decal, Starcraft style marine, comms marine and more of that shit.
Alicorns, (I added nightmare moon) and the same number of unicorns from before. In the background are some reg. Pwnys, nothing special. I made 2 with the Big Mac style head and the rest uses the standard one.
Pegasi, I added one.
Old shit
A group shot of the Pwny part of the army.
I still need to make 5+ Rednecks, some more kamikazes, and Luna.
A shot of Rarity. Basically a copy of ArkBrik.
Meet SureFire. He's my OC and also my new ava. A lot of backstory goes with him but I don't feel like writing all of it down.
Here is Trollestia! A Hero Pwny, whom I still have to make stats for. She gets a supernatural dice pool, with fire/light elements.
Trixie, I damn well hope she's great and powerfull.
The flyboys(and girls). I was originally going to make the wonderbolts, but I didn't have enough blue for that.
My only Redneck Pwny so far, AJ. She's just AJ, no special shit or anything.
A better shot of the Comms radio I attached to a Kamikaze Pwny. Hope you guys like it!
I apologize for the blurry pic's and bad lighting. As much constructive criticism and feedback as possible. That means:
