1w, 2dTemporary hiatus due to intense course2 comments · 12 views
I have tried taking it with a positive view, but considering the circumstances, I might have to put writing and drawing away for a few weeks. I didn't think it was going to be so time consuming, but the course is an intense 12-weeks course compressed into 6, and the physical training I haven't done in probably years. My classic "I will run when they come lookin' for me"ideology is taking its toll. Not only are the classes 4-5 hours a day 5 days a week, but I also have to study and train while trying not to die in the agonizing pain my body gives me the day after exercising, as if he were saying. "Dude, why? We had a deal with the bed and the couch!"
So yeah, even if after the course is done I still have to study and get prepared for the physical tests, at least those extra hours I am currently spending in class... maybe I could write or draw. Until then, it is time to work hard to earn my badge.
18w, 23hAs if I needed more reasons to be a slow writer0 comments · 14 views
I've always had reasons to not write/draw while following a specific schedule. Most of them being:
-Gaming like a mofo.
-Exhausted from house chores.
-Simply not feeling like it.
-Lack of inspiration.
-Friends come to visit (extremely rare)
If I needed one extra reason, which I didn't, I got one: I have a job. Well, several. Sort of. Being a freelance translator for several companies around the world, mostly. With plans on moving from Spain, my home country, to the US and saving to do so. Assignments aren't that common for now, but I've gotten a few, with the idea of becoming an official, professional translator in hopefully a not so far away future.
With this report about my current situation, I bid thee farewell and I hope I'll be able to write and draw more.
20w, 1dWhy I seem to be dead around here these days2 comments · 28 views
I've seen a lot of blogs these days commenting about fake suicide notes and stuff like that. Not a pretty sight. I was going through a bit of an ordeal myself, but I didn't feel like bothering anyone around here with it, so I moved forward. Anyway, that's not the point of all this, but it's true that the idea of being called out because of all the ones posting lies for attention really didn't made it easy for me to open myself here. But since I walked through this shit and lived to tell the tale, here goes the other reason I'm not too active here.
I've always considered myself a comedian, though much more of a spontaneous kind of comedian than the classic, scripted in stand-up. It's why my short career as one didn't work. But as a writer, which I've been for almost eight years now, I decided to try and earn a living as a freelance writer/translator. If any of you have given it a try, you'll notice how troublesome that crap is. Allow me to expand on this.
I have two sites I usually visit. One of them allows employers to set the job offers so only premium members can apply for jobs (it's a yearly fee of 120 bucks). If you aren't a premium member... well, there are SOME jobs that aren't set to Premium-only, but even then, to apply for the job, you have to pay 1 dollar. Just so it's clear enough for everyone, I'll repeat it. They charge you for applying for a job. If you're premium, applying is free, but if you're trying to earn some money for yourself and are starting, you're basically screwed unless the employer offers you to contact him via email directly. Other than that, you're hosed. Then they have the translation contests, which would be awesome to have something to show off and get you in the spotlight and prove your skills. But again, only uncommon language pair (say, Arabic to Icelandic) you can make submissions as a free members. As a measure to trim entries in the most common language pairs (mostly English to almost any common language known to man) you must be a premium member of the site. So no "prove your worth" for you either. Also, mastery of a translation assistant program is required in mot jobs, premium-only or not, and those bastards cost over 600 bucks. I dunno, there are expensive dictionaries, but those are quite useful. I have one, actually, and it works wonders. I know it's much more, but damn.
Then there's the other freelancing site. This one at least isn't demanding when it comes to "you have to pay for apply", but it counters it with more bullshit. You have limited bids (times you can apply for jobs), and they regenerate very slowly (if you're a free user, you get another bid every three days), and of course, competing with hundreds of people. Not only that, but, while there's no way of making jobs "premium-only" in this one, the employer might demand to have passed one of the several exams the site offers to show your skills. And, of course, those cost money. 5 pounds each. Even if the exams aren't truly necessary, it's constantly encouraged to pass them to attract more clients. Again, this is balls if you're trying to start. Not only you have to think about all that, but most of the jobs have such a miserably low pay that you have to read it several times because you refuse to believe. It's very common to see offers where they pay you one dollar per 500-word article. Wow! A whole dollar! These guys are throwing money away like candy here! And don't even get me started with rush jobs! This was a real, I-shit-you-not" conversation with a client.
"Hey, I need to get this 10 pages translated!"
"Sure, when's the deadline?"
"In thirty minutes."
Yeah, that happens. And the pay is still shitty compared to the average translation rates. "Hire freelancers for a fraction of a cost," they say on the site. A fraction indeed.
So while I still throw bids there and hope for jobs here and there, I'm working on another projects I'll keep you informed about. I'll still try to write little by little as i usually do, though. Until then, I'll still hang around every now and then.

32w, 3dI draw (horribly) too!0 comments · 45 views
So, after almost a month full of delays and mishaps, I was able to get my tablet. Suffice to say, I wasn't an outstanding artist before I got this thing, and getting used to it (and learning how to use it) takes time. Ever new drawing shows that I'm slowly adapting to it, but I still was a mediocre artist when I started. For any of you interested, there's actually a comic I'm working on that shares my spare time along with my writing, called Dice & Dining rooms. You can check it do the usual tumblr stuff. I'll try to keep everything (both writing and comic) updated at a decent rhythm (which considering my slow writing, that might not be too much of a challenge). I have a lot thought out for the comic already, and even if I don't get asks, I have material to keep the comic going.
That's basically all I had to say. Oh, and a soon as I improve my drawing a bit more, I'll make the covert art for Edda's second book and submit it. Be patient, fellas, for I'll deliver!

This would have had more exposure if you just posted each part once per day. Now I fear that it won't get much recognition.
This is quite an interesting take on MLP. Setting it to a Fedal Japan setting. This is well writen out and the characters' personailities are kept intact while adapting them to the fedal setting. Il ove to continue seeing where this goes.
If I may ask, though, you said this is in the crossover category. A crossover with what, I may ask?
Glad you asked, though its a little known world. The crossover is Legend of the Five Rings, a CCG/RPG based in feudal Eastern Empire. It's a really complex world but, knowing that very few peole will be familiar with the main source, I simplified most of the elements and avoided the specific jargon. This should make the story enjoyable for all the readers.
Heh, I'm familiar with the source and I'm finding this quite entertaining. Good job, can't wait to read more.
Really? Wow, That's awesome!
Really glad to have a L5R connoiseur as a reader. If you find it enternatining AND not insulting, then I'm doing a better job that I expected. I have a huge draft around here, and in order to fight the writer's block, I'm trying to get some random scenes from the future episode rolling. I'll take time, but I hope everyone will find it as awesome as I do.
Heh, I used to play the card game, had most of the first edition of the RPG, and later the D&D sourcebooks for Rokugan. Also read the clan wars series a long time ago. Considering you're crossing over two very different universes, I think you've hit the right mix of the two.
Finally got around to reading this. I might be unfamiliar with the settings you're crossing over with, but you seem to be letting in just enough information for me to follow the story.
Kudos. Would be tracking.
I can't tell you how happy I am to see this story here! As I said on Equestria Daily I love that someone ponyfied L5R.
>>266084 I highly recomend Legend of the Five Rings if you are into RPGs, CCGs, or interesting stories (they publish stories on the L5R website).
Ok, this story is pure WIN
On the chapter aspect: the chapters may be long enough to separate into 3 parts, possibly 1 chapter = 1 arc in the story, but that doesn't phase me one bit! The structure of this may make it easier for one to read, so that's a plus right there. Although it is the longest fic (and still going), I am amazed you have enough inspiration to keep this going. Kudos for the future!
On the content aspect: as stated above, this is LONG! And it is not composed of shit at all. The plot continuously adds to the much larger one, and keeps me going, enough that I would look for the next chapter button, when it isn't there. Few fics do that. All the characters, mane ponies, background ponies, etc. all of them blend in together as if they ALL have a purpose in the story. The detail just paints a picture of the story so realistically, kinda like I have a movie in my head. This is one fic NOT hastily, lazily, or apathetically written. I wouldn't be surprised if someone did make a movie (not likely) out of this masterpiece waiting to become a masterpiece.
On the preview aspect: the picture show Lyra the samurai kneeling. At first glance, the mind would stereotypically assume it is full of action. They would be mistaken by the dark and humble setting they are placed in at the beginning. I like that view of things. The discription would be a tiny bit excluding, and a little misleading according to the story. In my opinion it would be great if you could clarify and even give a little more of the 'appetizer', because with this amount of content, there should be a little more foreshadowing to what the fic holds in store for the reader.
Since mustaches are given as a rating here, I hereby give you out of 5 's
Have a nice day!
Awesome chapter! And go Big Mac and Twilight!
It's godd every character has a story behind them and every thing that happens has a impact to the story.
Holy shit, that's scary.
So there are Void spirits...an interesting change.
I like the world building you've been weaving into these chapters.
Pinkie was awesome, I hope her and AJ will be all right.
Once again, you amazed us with 3 chapters that each make up one complete "episode" that is action packed and blood-thirsty. A true spectacle that is breath-taking and wonderful to read. The whole story plays out like a japanese anime even!
In fact, if this were an anime, I think the two opening themes for Sengoku Basara would be perfect for this story:
OPENING 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ELt1B9r6y0
OPENING 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rj2ldRSHNzE
Anyways, the characterization is blended perfectly between the two source materials while adding it's own terminology and history.
This is truly one of the best MLP:FiM crossovers I've read, and can't wait to read more.
Anyways, I hope the two opening themes from Sengoku Basara help inspire you further with the story and setting.
Keep up the good work.
I appreciate those words. It's actually the thing that takes most time to make up and adapt in a way that's still loyal yet not disastrous. Relationships among clans are also an issue to take care of, but luckily most of the plot-related stuff is going smoothly and reviewers have little to no problems with them (and sometimes it's just something minor that can be easily fixed by rephrasing or adding some more worldbuilding or a piece of lore tu justify it).
Wow, I haven't been an anime fan for years now (only a few of them caught my attention, and the clichés really started making me loathe the genre), but that looks like a pretty awesome one. I love the songs, and I'll surely check it out sooner or later. Thanks!
I will mention this later on the blog too, but I have the exams in a couple of weeks, so the next chapter(s) will take a little bit longer to appear. Even though I have most of the basic drafts already made, writing them with all the study I should be doing (and that I'm NOT doing) will take time.
On an unrelated note, I'm not the kind of guy who drops references to certain movies/songs here and there very often, but I was hoping that somepony would be able to get the reference to "The Ring of the Nibelungs".
Check the blog every now and them to check how the story gets developed and reading some mindless stuff every now and then.
I don't want to be a doody or anything, but I did notice the lack of a space after a comma, before the word proceding the comma. If you want, I can copy paste a revised version into a Gdoc.
Hmm nah, I think I'll just check it once I have time. If it's only one lesser mistake such as that one, I'll be able to look it up once I have the rest of the new chapter in the reviewer's table.
Good things to know: After so much writing, I've improved as an author. That means it takes far less time to review the episodes, changing from the usual week or so to only 3 days (one day per part), which basically halves the waiting time. Salute to you all and enjoy the reading!
"What won't be necessary.
Wouldn't what be that?
What do you mean by reviewing the episodes?
Well, I know it's technically incorrect, but that's what everypony at Ponychan comes for: a review for their fics.
I know that the correct term should be proof-reading or edit, but I'm used to the term. And yes, I should've used 'chapter' instead of 'episode'. They're synonyms, but 'chapter' refers mostly to books and 'episodes' have to do with TV shows.
This is not a sarcastic answer to you, my grammar nazi friend, bear that in mind. Sometimes I want to make sure I'm saying the right words. Word choice is a pain in the flank for me, being non-native English speaker and such.
But yes, when I mentioned "review of episodes" I was talking about proof-reading and editing the chapters. There are a lot of things I used to have problems with, but luckily I've improved a lot with every chapter, so there aren't as much issues as with the first one.
We still have the classic "'he' instead of 'she' or viceversa" issue, now 100% more frustrating because my "s" likes fooling around. Word choice, as previously stated, is a huge pain. So many words that mean almost exactly the same, but only one transmits the idea and effect I want. Also, clarification is an issue that I'm fixing in this incoming chapter, so dialogues will be easier to flow. Sometimes, as you noticed, edition has a drawback. When fixing stuff, some minor issues like spaces before commas that should be there but aren't or spaces at the beginning of paragraphs because I deleted/rewrote a sentence or the like.
We also have to avoid OoC moments. Even in a crossover world of samurais where the characters have aged around 10 years or so, the main cast is still the main cast. Unless explained or developed deeply (and with shown consequences), you cannot simply write a story where (spoiler alert for those who haven't finished reading Chapter 4) Silver Spoon bitchslaps Diamond Tiara for insinuating that she's a whore. That, my friend, even though I love writing complex scenes and convoluted political stuff, is my favorite scene for now.
Well that makes sense, as I come from a place where I don't know what the hell is on ponychan, and don't intend to find out.
But alas, you don't have an official Grammar Nazi on your team, do you? May I do the honors in future chapters?
Well, you actually offered yourself several weeks ago, and I sent you a mail to the address you gave me back then with Chapter 4 (full chapter, 3 parts, comments enabled) ready to grammar nazi the horseapples out of it. However, after 5 days and no word from you (not even opening the gdocs), I decided to send it to my editor directly.
Chapter 5 is finished and has been sent to my proofreader. In a few days it should be up and ready to read.
Excellent read. Another 3-part chapter completed!
I love to continue reading where this will go next.
And if this where ever a real tv show, be be great if it were done as a Japanese anime or the official FIM art style either way. Maybe a combo of both?
Anyways, keep up the great work.
Glad to see you again. Yup, it took longer than expected, mainly because a lot of things, most of them out of my control, but I hope the waiting was worth it.
However, I'm going to try and update parts separately as I mention in the blog entry, to avoid having you waiting so long for the reading. I still think that it might work because the parts by themselves can work as a mini-chapter and don't leave anything in mid-action.
About the art, maybe some day I'll draw art. I want to think that maybe i can draw the ponies as they are in the story and then, next to them, the humanised version. I feel stupid when I check the Drawfriend and find an Eastern style pony and squeak saying "Oooh fanart of my fic", and then realise that it's obviously not.I've also been talking with a pretty cool dude to commission an opening for the fic, but considering the costs, it might take quite long. I have certain economic goals at the moment, and I think that the opening for this fic is a luxury that can wait.
Only 1 part? not 3? Where are the other 2
I actually decided, after weighing several options, to update parts separately as soon as they're written and edited (the blogs have the answers, but, in a nutshell, I fell horribly bad for taking so long to have material to read.) If I start getting comments about readers prefering to wait for the three parts rather than taking them one at a time, as soon as I finish with the chapter, I'll return to the usual style.
>>1349256 Ah, I didn't know that, seeing as I don't stalk your every movement and such It is interesting, but will be hard to get used too. If it is faster than your old update system was, and get us to read more often with shorter breaks between them, it will work out better in my opinion.
If you feel this method of updating is faster and better, then it's fine by me. Just as long as you update regularly, then I don't mind.
"So my good apprentice couldn't resist the desires of the flesh," complained Lyra with a huff.
Oh god.
Anyway, the only problem I see is when Lyra, Bon-Bon, and Pinkie were talking about the Prophecy, Pinkie seemed a little out of character when discussing. If I were you, I would write the scene where Pinkie would be stressed, but then interrupt Lyra/Bon-Bon/That other pony who's name I forget to try and make another point, and THEN settle down to a point where she is on the verge of collapse because of lack of sleep, talking to much and too fast, and othe reasons to slow down a bit.
Other than that, this chapter is fine. Apologies for the lack of pre-reading. There were a lot of tests, concerts, and fame of being on a billboard (FOR THE WIN) and my mom to deal with. I promise this next one will be in tip top shape when I am done with it BEFORE you post it here.
Oh, yeah, that scene with Lyra and Bon Bon is one of my personal favorites, so easy to picture it
I actually expected the beginning of the scene (when she's practising with the meteor hammer) to give the impression that she's actually trying to keep the mind blank. Once she explodes, you notice that she was trying to keep herself distracted from thinking, but when Lyra asks her what's wrong, she loses it. Still, it's not that much of a severe OOC, for there's a reason behin it and could be acceptable considering how it's going. But I'll try to check it once I have time.
No need to worry, we'll see what we can do in the following parts.
Ok, it's just me and my ramblings. Not to worry, I am at least 50% sane...
*looks at cover pic*
Instant fave, why did it take me so long to find this?
I got the Legend of the Five Rings core book today, but none of the Void Kiho seem to be able to deactivate Maho like Pinkie did. Is it from the Book of the Void, or did you create it for the story, or am I missing something in the core, or what?
Also, while I can make comparisons to some of the clans, such as Jewel=Crane+Scorpion, Apple=Crab, Lore=Phoenix, Party=Dragon, and Rainbow=Unicorn, what exactly is the Wilderness clan? and is the Rainbow Clan also part Lion clan?
An interesting question.
The Kiho Pinkie uses against Trixie is called "Way of the Void" or "Kukan-do". Quoting the book, "neither the caster or the target may use any magic, kiho, technique, tattoos or other Rank-derived benefits." Which, when you're a magic-focused character, screws you beyond belief. Now, that part where the spell fades when it gets close to Pinkie's void-surrounded body, that's a bit of artistic license I took.
Now, while it's true that you've guessed most of the clans, the Wilderness one is the oddest of all. There's not a whole clan of tamers expect for two exceptions: the Yoritomo Storm Riders of the Mantis and the Utaku Horsebreeders of the Unicorn. As for the Rainbow being part Lion, you might say so, though they're more a mixture of the Unicorn (Moto and Utaku families) and the Mantis (Tsuruchi and Moshi families).
Bear in mind, though, that the strictness of Rokugani rules (and the ideal of clans) are counterproductive when writing fanfiction that's not Legend of the Five Rings. Sometimes, to make the story easy to read for both scholars of the universe and those who never heard of it, we have to simplify and soften concepts.When you start your campaign, you might have trouble with some of those, especially for samurai who take insults to their honor (or things that they perceive as insults to their honor) quite seriously. Etiquette is serious business, but for the sake of canon characterization and story, I overlook some of those rules every now and then.
What book is Way of the Void in? because I can't find it in the 4th edition core (though oddly enough it is in the 3.0 Oriental Adventures book)
3rd Edition Core Rulebook: Way of the Void, Mystical Void Kiho, Mastery 7. To activate, keep eye contact and spend a Void Point, then make a contested Void/Insight Rank roll. If successful, neither the caster or the target may use any magic, kiho, technique, tattoos or other Rank-derived benefits. Skills, Advantages, Disadvantages and Void Points work as usual. The Kiho lasts until you end the effect, lose conciousness or the target moves out of visual range.
>>1858309That explains it, I have 4th edition, not 3rd
oh my sweet Luna... you mean to tell me that someone else besides myself knows and loves L5R? OH GLORIOUS DAY
I have one question Simon_oSullivan.
Which 'Legend of the Five Rings' clan is each of the six clans based on anyway?
>>4186393 Oh, well, this is a bit behind the scenes, and I might return to this fic someday. Anyways, to answer to your question.
Lore Clan (Twilight's): Phoenix Clan
Apple Clan (AJ's): A mixture of Crab and Lion; dependin on the characters you see more Crab and Lion or viceversa.
Party Clan (Pinkie's): Mostly Dragon, with certain control over the greater monastic orders since the Pie sisters are the leaders of each one of them..
Jewel Clan (Rarity's): A (slightly) harmonic combination of Crane and Scorpion
Rainbow Clan (Rainbow Dash's): Combines the military aspects of both Unicorn and Mantis.
Wilderness Clan (Fluttershy's): There's not an equivalent in the original L5R stuff. You can see it as a mixture of the Utaku horse breeders and the Mantis Stormriders.
>>4187133 I see.
So in other words, 'Summoners' are the 'MLP:FiM' equivalents of 'Shugenjas' I believe.
If that's true then I should aim for the title of a summoner of the Lore Clan because I love to combine all of my powerful ice elemental magic with all added bonus of jade magic to protect all innocents and destroy all evil at every same time!
What title of a chosen clan would you be by the way Simon?
>>4189825 Oh, yes, I replaced "shugenja" for "shugenja" because, back when I tried to submit this to EqD, they told me to try and keep the Japanese stuff to a minimum. Shugenja summon the spirits of the elements to cast the spells instead of bending them to their will as classic wizards, I went with "summoners".
As for the title... I don't know, really. I've always been a huge fan of the Phoenix Clan (it's the one I started with when I began playing the card game), and my first character in a pen and paper campaign was a Phoenix ishiken (Void shugenja) who married a Kuni Witch Hunter and served in the Kaiu Wall. He was looking for a way to cure the Taint, which became out of the question when Daigotsu became the new Lord of Jigoku and made the Shadowlands Taint only affect those who embraced it willingly. But I still loved the character.
Damn, I really should return to this story one day.

MTV EMA Broadcasts from Glasgow with Global Music Icons
Last week, the 2014 MTV European Music Awards aired live from Glasgow, Scotland. Nicki Minaj as host packed the show with lots of terrific surprises, including a rap for Scotland, a brief foray into mini-golf and a photo-bombing dinosaur. There were also performances from global music icons ranging from Enrique Iglesias to U2. But one thing I found, how ever unintentional, was a message of #girlpower woven throughout the show — as Nicki owned the stage, as Charli XCX energized the crowd, as Alicia Keys mesmerized the audience with her vocal prowess. If you missed it (or just want to watch again), you can see for yourself via the video highlights, below. Read More

During a recent radio interview, Bully Ray shocked a lot of wrestling fans when he revealed that he was dating Velvet Sky. Many were under the impression that the TNA Knockout was still dating Chris Sabin, who recently left the company as a free agent. There might be some validity to the claims made by Bully Ray as Sabin has been spotted with another woman, possibly his new girlfriend, as of late.

Back during the 1980s, one of the most talked about segment in professional wrestling was when Uncle Elmer got married on national television. It was an actual wedding, as the performer was really wanting to marry his longtime girlfriend. When he approached Vince McMahon about it, the promoter loved the idea and decided to make it a draw for WWE.

A picture of Jerry Lawler with his new girlfriend Lauryn. The longtime WWE commentator has been involved in several relationships over the years, so it comes as no surprise to the fans that he has found someone else.
April 4, 2014
A picture of Randy Orton celebrating his birthday with what appears to be his new girlfriend. The WWE champion was previously rumored to be involved in a relationship with JoJo Offerman, whose removal from the Total Divas cast happened to coincide with the breakup between the two.
April 2, 2014
Looks like the marriage bug has bit Luke Gallows. The former WWE star revealed that he is now engaged to his girlfriend, independent wrestler Amber O'Neal. The two have been together for a bit of time, even though Gallows has been working for New Japan quite a bit. Their wedding is expected to be some time in May.
March 27, 2014
Since he left the company, WWE fans have been eager to get a glimpse of CM Punk. His appearance on the Talking Dead created quite the buzz. So did a brief glimpse at the airport, where the former world champion was picking up his girlfriend, AJ Lee. Now, Punk has been spotted again, this time he is with Colt Cabana at an NHL game.
March 26, 2014
A video of the segment from Total Divas, where Nikki Bella and John Cena meet up on the pier. A lot of fans were led to believe that the former WWE Heavyweight Champion was going to be changing his stance and proposing to his girlfriend, but the couple basically just got their relationship on track instead.
March 24, 2014
When Bray Wyatt went on Monday Night Raw to cut a promo against John Cena, he used the term "plastic girlfriend" to describe Nikki Bella. Some wondered if there would be backstage heat for that, but it turns out that Wyatt actually told her about it beforehand. He even apologized before doing it. Everyone backstage really enjoyed the segment.
March 22, 2014
While he does not plan on leaving wrestling for Hollywood any time soon, John Cena is making quite the step up. Variety magazine is reporting that the WWE star is joining the cast of Trainwreck, a movie by Judd Apatow. Cena will be joining Bill Hader, Brie Larson and Amy Schumer, who happens to be the former girlfriend of Dolph Ziggler.
March 20, 2014
On Monday Night Raw, a slight buzz was created when Bray Wyatt used the term "plastic girlfriend" during a promo with John Cena, a reference to the fact that his real life girlfriend Nikki Bella has breast implants. There is said to be no backstage heat between the two over the segment, as WWE officials have given them both a bit of creative freedom in this feud.
March 18, 2014
Some speculations are floating right now about Mark Henry after how his character has been booked as of late. The belief is that the former world heavyweight champion is being punished by WWE for something. Henry was knocked out in a matter of seconds at Survivor Series 2014. Plus, he also suffered a clean loss to Ryback on Monday Night Raw. No word yet on whether or not there is actual backstage heat, though.
November 26, 2014
In order to boost Ryback up to the main event scene, management is going to have him beating some of the upper tier guys in WWE. His next step is Kane, and the company is going to try to give a quick boost to his momentum by pairing the two of them in a Chairs match at WWE TLC 2014. The renewed faith in Ryback comes as a surprise to many, as second chances are a bit hard to come by backstage.
November 26, 2014
With Ryback making his return on Monday Night Raw, many are wondering about the fate of his former tag team partner, Curtis Axel. It looks like management will utilize him as a role player in the singles division. The former Intercontinental Champion worked a match this week against Kofi Kingston on WWE Main Event. The company really likes having a veteran performer like Axel around, so job security should not be an issue anytime soon.
October 29, 2014
Since he was no longer a topic of discussion, Ryback managed to have his return to Monday Night Raw fly under the radar. That, in part, helped to generate a much better reception for the former main event performer than expected. WWE fans in the arena chanted his catchphrase and cheered for him, while online fans helped his name become a trend on various social media websites.
October 28, 2014
Through his Twitter account, Ryback revealed to fans that it has now been 18 days since his surgery, and he has been recovering extremely well from his still unknown injury, which is rumored to involve his groin. He should be making a return to WWE very soon, as he is now pain free. He might not be rushed back, though, as management really doesn't have a story ready for him.
September 15, 2014
When word broke that Ryback was injured, there were some reports of skepticism from WWE officials that there really was no injury. However, the legitimacy of his health has been proven, as Ryback has posted a video of himself in the hospital. He clearly did go under the knife. It is being said that Ryback has worked with strained groins and hernias for the last year.
August 28, 2014
Since Ryback is on the shelf for a couple of weeks, it will be interesting to see what WWE does with Curtis Axel. There were already plans being discussed a couple of weeks ago to split up the tag team, so it should come as no surprise if management opted to use the injury as an excuse to accelerate those plans. WWE no longer believes that Axel is worthy of being a top level guy, but they do believe he can still be a useful member of the roster.
August 27, 2014
There was a little bit of a buzz earlier in the week when Ryback posted a message about taking time off from WWE. It escalated a bit further when he deleted the comment from Twitter, which is something that he has done several times in the past. It has now been confirmed that he suffered some sort of injury and will be needing a few weeks off of the road to recover.
August 27, 2014
Since management wasn't completely sure what to do with them upon their returns, WWE has seemingly decided to put Big Show and Mark Henry into a tag team. The duo demolished Curtis Axel and Ryback on Smackdown. The belief is that Show and Henry could be placed into a big tag team match on a pay per view against Luke Harper and Erick Rowan.
August 11, 2014
Reports are surfacing that WWE will be throwing a last minute fatal four way match together at Summerslam 2014, where Cody Rhodes, Goldust, Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, Curtis Axel and Ryback will all be vying for the tag titles. Management does not view this division to be a priority at this time, even though fan interest has grown.
August 7, 2014
Rumors are floating around that WWE is going to be splitting up Curtis Axel and Ryback very soon. Since neither guy has a ton of momentum right now, it does not appear that the move is being done to give them a push. WWE views Axel as just a guy on the roster nowadays, and Ryback has been in the doghouse with management for quite some time now.
July 23, 2014
On Monday Night Raw this week, Xavier Woods, who is only used sporadically on television by WWE, made a surprising appearance after a tag team match featuring Curtis Axel, Ryback, Kofi Kingston and Big E Langston. He cut a quick promo about how Kingston and Langston cannot get very far in WWE by being nice guys. This is the start of the long rumored stable, which has already been compared to the Nation of Domination by fans online.
July 22, 2014
Some more names have been added to the upcoming WWE Intercontinental Championship battle royal. Big E, Curtis Axel, Dolph Ziggler, Rob Van Dam and Ryback are now in the match at WWE Battleground 2014. They join Kofi Kingston, Damien Sandow, Great Khali and Antonio Cesaro. As of right now, the company is favoring the idea of giving the title to Cesaro.
July 2, 2014
In a match that was slightly held in higher regards than a filler match, Goldust and Cody Rhodes, who worked under his Stardust gimmick again, defeated Curtis Axel, who was sporting a ridiculous looking singlet, and Ryback. The match was designed to highlight the Stardust character. Since there was a little bit of action after the match, there is a chance that WWE could be continuing this feud.
June 29, 2014
In a match designed by WWE to accelerate the split between the brothers, Curtis Axel and Ryback defeated Cody Rhodes and Goldust in the second match of Payback 2014. Ryback picked up the pin fall victory for his team after delivering the Shell Shock to Rhodes. Afterwards, Rhodes told Goldust that he needs to find a better tag team partner for himself.
June 1, 2014
A rather interesting move took place on Monday Night Raw, as Sheamus captured the WWE United States Heavyweight Championship by winning a battle royal. The move was designed to take the belt off of Dean Ambrose, which would increase the friction between the Shield and Triple H. Final five guys in the ring were Ambrose, Sheamus, Jack Swagger, Curtis Axel and Ryback.
May 5, 2014
"I got absolutely nothing from that. It's a time period I will not even think to look back on." - Ryback talking about how disappointment he was with his partnership with Paul Heyman
May 2, 2014
"I came in 2012 and burst on the scene. I believe I was the most popular thing. Before the 'Yes Movement' with Daniel Bryan, there was the 'Feed Me More' movement. I took the WWE by storm. I was undefeated for some time, sometimes taking on two guys at one time. I jumped in the main event scene very quickly and stayed very popular with the WWE Universe for a long time. We made the switch and went an opposite way and took it all away. Not that I necessarily agreed with it at the time, but I feel it was a good move." - Ryback talks about WWE takiing away his push
May 2, 2014
Earlier in the week, it was reported that Curtis Axel and Ryback would be receiving a shot at Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso and the WWE Tag Team Championship at Extreme Rules 2014, management has decided to put the match on the next episode of Monday Night Raw instead. A rematch at the pay per view is a possibility still.
April 27, 2014
As is usually the case with every pay per view, you can expect WWE to do last minute additions to the Extreme Rules 2014 match card. Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Curtis Axel and Ryback are expected to get the seventh match on the card. If WWE needs another filler match, then Emma, Santino Marella, Layla El and Fandango are the top candidates for that spot.

Andrews Says Leggett's Grant To Choice Hotels Earned Him Campaign Donation – Councilmember and county executive candidate Phil Andrews said he thinks it's likely that Choice Hotels Chairman Stewart Bainum, Bainum's wife and Choice business partners donated $17,000 to Isiah Leggett's campaign as a form of payback for the county's $3.1 million grant to the company. The county gave Choice Hotels the money to smooth its move from Silver Spring to Rockville. Leggett's campaign said Andrews' charge isn't true — Bainum has been a longtime supporter of Leggett and other Democratic candidates. [Washington Post]

Researchers at Harvard Medical School have developed little b, an open source computer language that describes biological complexities such as proteins as biologists would. The researchers used Lisp to create little b. In a demonstration, the researchers used little b to build models of kinase activity. The modeling language was able to understand the property of kinases and build models of their activity. The researchers plan to develop a simple interface that's easy to use and will let scientists use the modeling system without having to learn little b. The system gets smarter as more scientists use it and it assimilates the input into its language. The end goal for the researchers is a virtual cell that "lives" in software. (Science Daily)
A former Google employee has launched Cuil, a new search engine, which claims to have indexed roughly 120 billion Web pages to Google's 40 billion Web pages. Cuil (pronounced "cool") assigns priority to pages based on content, whereas Google prioritizes content based on inbound links (its PageRank algorithm). Cuil sorts search results into categories and displays the results in different tabs. It also displays images related to search terms. Pages are displayed in two- or three-column format based on user preference. Other features include roll-over definitions, navigation suggestions, and drilldown panels that suggest search refinements. (Computerworld)
Security researchers released attack code that exploits the Domain Name System (DNS) vulnerability discovered by Dan Kaminsky. HD Moore and a hacker that goes by "l)ruid" released attack code for two exploits. The first exploit poisons a DNS server's cache with a single malicious entry. The second lets attackers poison several domains in one attack. HD Moore, creator of the Metasploit open source security project, noted that the first exploit gives attackers more anonymity, whereas the second requires attackers to use real DNS servers that host providers could trace back to them. (Computerworld)
Google announced on its blog that it's now easier for Gmail users to encrypt their emails. The company has added an option that always uses HTTPS. Previously, Gmail users wanting to encrypt their email would have to type in https://mail.google.com, rather than http://mail.google.com. The new option will automatically add the HTTPS. Google is pushing out the new option to all Gmail and Google Apps users. If users don't have the option yet available when they login, the company says they can continue to go to https://mail.google.com. Google points out that encryption adds extra security from prying eyes but also might make mail delivery slower. (Google)
The Drizzle project, an offshoot of the open source MySQL community, will attempt to build a leaner version of MySQL for Web applications. The project is a response to the developer community's call for a lightweight database system that recalls MySQL's earlier days. Drizzle will use a micro-kernel architecture and move higher-end features to modules that developers can add or remove as needed. Features that will be modularized include triggers, views, stored procedures, access control lists, and some data types. According to Brian Aker, MySQL director of architecture, the Drizzle project will be mostly independent from Sun, which purchased MySQL in April 2008. The code will be available under the GPL v2 license. A timetable for Drizzle's release has yet to be decided, but developers interested in contributing to the project can find instructions on Drizzle's wiki. (InfoWorld)
Six of the UK's largest ISPs—BT, Virgin Media, Carphone Warehouse, Tiscali, Sky, and Orange—have agreed to send warning letters to customers who share copyrighted material. The country's record label association, the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), will identify the illegal file sharers by scouring illegal file-sharing sites and tracing IP addresses back to specific users. On behalf of UK record companies, the BPI signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with ISPs; the MOU wasn't signed by ISPs O2/Be and Thus/Demon, however. As it stands, users who receive warning letters won't face further legal penalties. However, the BPI has outlined a procedure to combat illegal file sharing. Under the BPI's plan, illegal file sharers would first receive a warning letter. Their accounts would be suspended if they continued their activities and then cancelled if they still continued to share copyrighted material. (ZDNet UK)
Computer scientists at the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and George Mason University have developed a new network analysis technique that uses security metrics to determine the risk and probability of network attacks. Using attack graphs and NIST's National Vulnerability Database (NVD), researchers evaluate attack routes into networks and assign risk factors to them based on how challenging the routes are to attackers. The model analyzes the probability of attack against each route's components—firewall, router, and FTP server, for instance—and determines the overall risk to the network. The researchers plan to expand their technique to large-scale enterprise networks. The researchers presented the analysis technique at the Working Conference on Data and Applications Security in early July. (Science Daily)
A security researcher has reported three flaws in the iPhone that could leave users open to phishing and spam attacks.

Consumer electronics (CE) companies, including Sony, Samsung, Motorola, Sharp, and Hitachi, have thrown their weight behind Wireless Home Digital Interface (WHDI) technology. The wireless technology operates in the 6 GHz spectrum, has a range of roughly 100 feet, and sends uncompressed high-definition signals at up to three Gbits per second. A standard for WHDI has yet to be approved, but Amimon, the company that created the technology, and its CE partners are working toward that end. WHDI faces competition from WirelessHD, which is backed by Toshiba, Sony, LG, and Intel. (BetaNews)
Google has opened up Knol, its online community-based encyclopedia, to contributors. A knol is a unit of knowledge; in Google's setup, it refers to an individual article on a subject. Each knol will contain the author's name, a contrast to the anonymous postings on Wikipedia. Readers can submit suggestions to knols, which the author can accept, modify, or reject. Community tools let readers comment, rate, or write reviews. Google has also integrated its AdSense program into Knol. On its blog, Google said, "At the discretion of the author, a knol may include ads from our AdSense program." Authors will share in the revenue generated by including ads in their knols. Additionally, Google has an agreement in place with New Yorker magazine, which will let knol authors insert one New Yorker cartoon into each of their knols. (BetaNews)

As more and more business processes go mobile, IT faces an ever-increasing number of security challenges. Users now have access to a multitude of personal communication channels, such as social networking sites, untrusted personal applications, webmail, web browsing, and instant messaging. Without the proper structures in place, data-transfer mechanisms such as P2P file sharing, USB connectivity, media card swapping, Bluetooth™ and NFC data transfer can all pose a threat to the enterprise.

Long before there was a World Wide Web the Internet was largely a playground for academics and the military, and most people still thought spam was just a canned meat. Yet there were already hoaxes and scams. Just as early Internet worms evolved into the mass-mailers of the last decade and then into Facebook clickjacking apps , and the pre-WWW world of Usenet and email morphed into social networks and Twitter, so social engineering adapted to the new environment.

SunEdison closes $65M loan for Arizona solar park
Send this to a friend
- Staff Portland Business Journal
SunEdison, a subsidiary of MEMC Electronic Materials Inc. and North American Development Bank, have signed a $65 million loan agreement for the construction of a 20-megawatt solar park in Picture Rocks, Ariz.
The solar power plant, which received certification and financing from NADB's board in December, is expected to generate power to approximately 3,500 homes. The project will supply power to Tucson Electric Power through a 20-year purchase agreement. The new development complies with the Arizona Corporation Commission's Renewable Energy Standard, which requires regulated electric utilities in Arizona to generate 15 percent of their energy from renewable resources by 2025.
"We are very pleased to sign this loan with SunEdison, a company with a well-established presence in the solar energy sector. NADB works to provide affordable long-term financing for projects in the U.S.-Mexico border region that yield environmental and economic benefits for the citizens of the region." NADB Managing Director Geronimo Gutierrez said in a statement.
The solar park will occupy 200 to 250 acres of a 305-acre lot owned by Tucson Water, a department of the city of Tucson. The new alternative energy facility is expected to eliminate more than 35,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide, 125 metric tons of nitrogen oxides and 200 metric tons of sulfur dioxide per year.

November 2007 Cookbook of the Month: Cast Your Votes Here
- JoanN Oct 8, 2007 08:41 AM
I know, I know. About a third of the United States is in the midst of a heat wave and we don't even want to *think* about Choucroute Garnie no less prepare it. But there are no expiration dates for postings to any of the Cookbook of the Month threads and, whether it feels like it or not, Thanksgiving is less than six weeks away. So here we go.
Quite a few people suggested a compendium cookbook for one of our selections. Since many of us, from many different traditions, will be either preparing or contributing to a Thanksgiving dinner, this seemed like a good month to be able to choose among a wide variety of essentially North American recipes.
Please vote for one of the following four choices for November Cookbook of the Month
The Dean & DeLuca Cookbook by David Rosengarten
The Gourmet Cookbook edited by Ruth Reichl
The Silver Palate Cookbook by Julee Rosso & Sheila Lukins
How to Cook Everything by Mark Bittman
by posting your vote to this thread. Voting will be open until Monday, October 15th and I'll post the November Cookbook of the Month on Tuesday, October 16th.
Silver Palate is my go to book. I have the others, but I've had my Silver Palate book for a long, long time and I trust their recipes!0
I have How to Cook Everything and have not cooked from it in a while, it has lots of simple and great things. It gets my vote0
I may pass in November - I don't have any of them, and am behind on my Julia Child cooking (and posting!). Also my husband is travelling a lot (which means I don't cook much!) and still have lots of Lucques recipes I want to try.
All great choices from what I've read about them though - and I used to cook quite a bit from a friend's Silver Palate cookbook. I like their last book together, the name of which is currently escaping me.0
re: MMRuth
I'll probably pass November as well. I'm way behind with TAOFC ... instead of her stuffed pumpkin that I planned for this past weekend, I ended up cooking something entirely different. I wish I knew what everyone liked about Silver Palate though. It's been sitting on my cookbook shelf since it was first published. None of the recipes within ever appealed to me. Guess I'll have to re-read and try to find some redeeming factors.0
re: Gio
Which recipes did you try? I've had great success, especially for entertaining. My experience is that since most of the recipes are favorites from their gourmet catering business, I haven't had a clunker yet. I do cook more out of their "Good Times" cookbook, though.0
re: Gio
I've had the Silver Palate since I had my first apartment in NYC in 1989. Back then, I found the book inspirational -- the recipes were fresh and interesting, especially compared to something like The Joy of Cooking. However, over time I've found that while they sound good, many of the recipes need tweeking to *taste* good -- I think this is the reason I rarely consult either the Silver Palate or The New Basics these days. One foolproof recipe is the one for zucchini bread, which is excellent (p. 250).0
re: MMRuth
Was it The New Basics? That's the only one of theirs I have. My sister says that Silver Palate is low on her list - too much sweet and savory stuff for her. I haven't ever seen it, but I trust my sister's instincts in recipe like/dislike.
Also have developed a prejudice against Reichl. She's gotten too cutesy and Gourmet is even more luxe and flashy than before.
I voted for Dean & DeLucca somewhere in this thread, but any of the others (with exception of the 2 above) are fine with me. I must say, however, that all the choices seem sort of unexciting to me.0
Silver Palate. The Silver Palate Good Times cookbook has great recipes also, especially for the holidays; the Grand Marnier Apricot Stuffing is the one I serve at Thanksgiving.0
I'm going to vote for The Dean & Deluca Cookbook, since it's the one I'm least familiar with and they have it at my library. It sounds more appealing to me to explore something new this month, since the month of October is old favorite, Julia Child, and the other books up for the vote this month are all books I've cooked out of before.0
re: DanaB
Dean and Deluca! I've made many recipes from this book and everything has been really good. I don't even LIKE D&D in person....waaay overpriced! However, cookbook is great.0
Silver Palate, it will be fun to cook from it again, I haven't used it in a while, but I love a lot of the recipes.0
Silver Palate, please, to celebrate the book's 25th anniversary.0
Dean & Deluca! The bread & butter stuffing is a Thanksgiving must-have for me.0
How to Cook Everything would be my choice.0
How to Cook Everything gets my vote... its the new basics cookbook now. Rosso and Lukins had their day, but the recipes are fussy and tired to me now.0
re: sabrosina
I actually go back to the New Basics quite often - love the gravlax recipe.0
Silver Palate all the way. Any excuse to make my very favorite Applesauce Raisin Cake!0
The Dean & DeLuca Cookbook!!!0
Dean & Deluca0
how to cook everything0
One (lonely?) vote for the Gourmet cookbook.0
I'm gonna go for The Silver Palate Cookbook. I received this book as a gift from my mother at the age of 23, when I was a budding foodie, and I still enjoy it 20 years later.0
My vote isn't a book at all. It's Google and the internet. There are so many recipes available on all kinds of sites one would never be able to find on his/her own. Written by specialists in their own culinary field.
I also like to study the variations of a particular dish, contrast and compare the preparation of a "star" chef versus a home cook who learned the dish from her grandmother, etc.
There was a wonderful article about the cookbook author Claudia Roden in a recent food issue of the New Yorker (about 2 months ago), which described how she researched the variations of a single dish, and how she selected the preparation for her book. I think one can do the same thing with a good internet search engine!0
re: MartinDC
Off topic a bit, but everyone on this list should read the Claudia Roden article in the NY'r. It's beautifully written, interesting, funny and altogether wonderful. Didn't the article say she's writing a Spanish recipe book now?0
re: oakjoan
Agree - great article - yes, she is writing a Spanish recipe book.0
re: oakjoan
Anyone know if it is still available online?0
re: LulusMom
Unfortunately, only a short abstract: http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/20...0
re: JoanN
You can find copies in local libraries. It's worth a special trip, it really is.0
re: oakjoan
Thanks ladies! (but I'm knocking my head ... was just at the library yesterday). I'll be sure to look for it.0
re: oakjoan
what's the date of the New Yorker mag w/ Claudi Roden article? I must have it around my living room somewhere!0
re: NYchowcook
September 3rd.0
Sorry ... I should have stayed on topic and voted for one the choices (though I'm wondering how the list of four choices came to be).
They are all fine cookbooks, and complement each other. When I want an authorative source for a master recipe, I always turn to David Rosengarted (Dean and DeLuca). Particularly when cooking for guests.
My pasta making by hand has improved markedly from his instructions, from choice of flour to rolling technique. And the Daube Provencale is exactly right.
Mark Bittman is good for weeknight cooking (family meals). At least that's what I use if for.0
re: MartinDC
"(though I'm wondering how the list of four choices came to be)."
Hi Martin. You must be new to the Home Cooking Board. We've been doing this for over a year, and the choices are made based on past suggestions from the Chowhounds. (For example, in the past, we've done a Roden book, and also cooked from an Internet website - LeitesCulinaria.com). Here's an idea of how this works, to get you started, along with links to past Cookbooks of the Month:0
Bittman--his recipes are more comprehensive & basic than Reichl or Rosengarten, and taste better than Russo & Lukins (or am I the only one who can't get their recipes to work?)0
Silver Palate!0
My vote is for Dean & DeLuca.
I've read through it and it looks very good and I can get it out of my library again.
Gourmet Cookbook left me underwhelmed.
Silver Palate is so . . . over! Been through it and out. It was nouvelle in its day (25 years ago, but don't think it has withstood the test of time overall to be worth a rehash as COTM)
Mark Bittman is a standby, but it's so varied it's hard to see it as an ouevre on its own. (If I had a second choice vote though it would go to that so fellow hounds could inspire me to dig deeper in the book)0
How to Cook Everything. I like Bittman's recipes a lot, they are simpler, tasty and easy to follow. Especially good for a novice like me. This would be my first time participating the Cookbook of the Month thread.. Exciting!0
Oops. I thought I appended a note to this thread early this morning but it seems not to have been posted. As many of you have already realized, voting for the November book ended in a tie and I've begun a new thread http://www.chowhound.com/topics/451164 for a runoff vote.0

The longer I live the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company . . . a church . . . a home. The remarkable thing is, we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past. . . . we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. . . . we cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you . . . we are in charge of our Attitudes.

You cannot always control circumstances. But you can control your own thoughts.
Charles E. Popplestone
Nothing splendid has ever been achieved except by those who dared believe that something inside them was superior to circumstances.
Bruce Barton (1886 - 1967)
The happiness which brings enduring worth to life is not the superficial happiness that is dependent on circumstances. It is the happiness and contentment that fills the soul even in the midst of the most distressing of circumstances and most bitter environment. It is the kind of happiness that grins when things go wrong and smiles through the tears. The happiness for which our souls ache is one undisturbed by success or failure, one which will root deeply inside us and give inward relaxation, peace, and contentment, no matter what the surface problems may be. That kind of happiness stands in need on no outward stimulus.
Billy Graham (1918 - 1995)
A man who has once perceived, however temporarily and however briefly, what makes greatness of soul, can no longer be happy if he allows himself to be petty, self-seeking, troubled by trivial misfortunes, dreading what fate may have in store for him. The man capable of greatness of soul will open wide the windows of his mind, letting the winds blow freely upon it from every portion of the universe. He will see himself and life and the world as truly as our human limitations will permit; realizing the brevity and minuteness of human life, he will realize also that in individual minds is concentrated whatever of value the known universe contains. And he will see that the man whose mind mirrors the world becomes in a sense as great as the world. In emancipation from the fears that beset the slave of circumstance he will experience a profound joy, and through all the vicissitudes of his outward life he will remain in the depths of his being a happy man.
Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970)

Man is not the creature of circumstances. Circumstances are the creature of man.
Benjamin Disraeli (1804 - 1881)

The culminating point of administration is to know well how much power, great or small, we ought to use in all circumstances.
Baron de Montesquieu (1689 - 1755)
Man without religion is the creature of circumstance.
