I can't make this up. |
So this just waltzed into our inbox. And we all remember the whole unapproved patches issue from last year. Except this is an APPROVED patch. This is the real, totally legit, certified by PAO, unit patch of the Joint Undergraduate Specialized Pilot Class 14-05, as reported by Robert Beckhusen at Medium.com.
Additionally, there are two more articles about the Fort Carlson bronies!
Check them out after the break!

Review: Children of the Night
Wow. It seems like it was forever since we first saw the animatic for Children of the Night.
Oh wait, it was.
Author: Duo Cartoonist
Children of the Night tells the tale of what woud have been the origin of Nightmare Night, and the catalyst element that forced Celestia to banish Luna.
After defeating Discord, Canterlot was witnessing a very slow recovery. Misery could still be found everywhere around, specially for the ponies that had less means.
Luna thought that expanding the kingdom and founding a new pony colony elsewhere would give a solution to the problem, allowing the ponies that she would choose for the matter, a new brand future. Celestia refused the proposal of her sister to scatter Equestria. For after such a great lack of harmony she thought it could shatter the kingdom forever.
Being denied and in the shadow of her own sister, Luna decided it easier to ask for forgiveness than permission...
Was it worth the year-long wait? Find out after the jump!

Op-ed: Saunter Hoof on "Military Tactics"
Not an actual poster... |
I was listening to NPR the other day, and something really annoyed me. It's about the way some people view the military, or should I say: 'military tactics'. I'm going to address my concerns, and what is really a popular exploitation of stereotyping.
One incident of language warning.

Fan Fiction Review #043: Death Note: Equestria
Death Note with ponies? My interest has been piqued.
Author: Nonagon
Equestria is growing, and magical savant Twilight Sparkle is disgusted by the crime and corruption this change has brought. Her life is changed forever when she discovers the Death Note, a notebook with inexplicable and deadly powers. She uses this book to pass judgement on those she deems unworthy of life, aiming to create a perfect world free of crime. But when the two Princesses put their best pony on the case, a mysterious detective known only as L, a psychological game of cat and mouse erupts between the two.
Comments contain spoilers. Artwork by blu-red, opening by Anon3mous. Now with its own TV Tropes page.
Well, this sounds like an interesting crossover. I mean, a tool of mass destruction such as the Death Note would be interesting to throw into a world of peace-loving ponies. I wonder what their reactions would be? Does this fic explore the possibilities of the chaos or lack thereof of said object being introduced to this world of love and friendship?
Nope!

SITREP #047: Military Brony Run
Something like this... but 20% cooler |
Fillies and Gentlecolts!
BronyCon 2013 is going to have one more event that should be big news to all our military bronies out there. Right next to the convention is going to be a charity run, sponsored by the Baltimore Oriels and called "Casey Cares Foundation 4th Annual 5K Run/Walk", that military bronies are going to engage in. FOB Equestria is going to do a guidon run for charity, but we need a team. It's a 5 k / 3.2 mile run, so don't be a pansy and wuss out. This is gonna be a kind of formation run, so yes we will go slow. If we have to "Marine Corps shuffle!", we will, but we shouldn't have to.
More details on how to register after the break.

Fan Fiction Review #42: The Abundance
Oh, come the f*BUY SOME APPLES*k on!
Author: defender2222
The Sequel to 'Faith and Doubt'.
It's been two months since the changeling attack and Shining's almost-wedding and much has changed. Twilight Sparkle is now an alicorn and has left Equestria to master her new powers. The sixth element of harmony, the corrupt abstract Doubt, has been reborn in his original form: Faith. He, along with Spike, have gone with Twilight as she sought to heal after the betrayal by her friends and family.
But Twilight's return to Ponyville will not be a happy one; in her absence her friends Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie have been turned into alicorns themselves and the embodiments of their elements. They have seized power and now rule Equestria with iron hooves, using banned magic to turn their friends and family into zealots that obey their every command.
To save Equestria, Twilight will have to do the unthinkable: form a rebellion and declare war on her friends.
But will she be willing to make the tough decisions... even if it means choosing between friendship and freedom.
Everything is bad in large doses.
Well, if that doesn't sound like the most unique, non-cliched setup for a story I've ever seen, I don't know what is! Let's review this sucker!

Yes, this is the second installment in the series. We did one a while back, but the interviews weren't done by us, they were just shared with us by RBDash47 on FiMFiction. I plan for this to be a somewhat regular segment for the Literature Division where we talk with notable authors in the community as well as the authors of stories we've reviewed in the past.
But that's enough explanation for now, we entered the jump zone 3 minutes ago! Get you're flank out that door!

Fan Fiction Review #041: Machine And Might
Futuristic humans in Equestria! How... original?
Author: Kriegor
A massive artificial behemoth made of metal tore through our skies. It loomed over our world, blotting out Celestia's sun and shrouding Luna's moon, leaving those below in the shadows. It sowed chaos and conflict on our nation, something that had not happened in more than a millennium.
It sits high above us, watching and waiting. What is this monster, and what is to be the fate of Equestria?
I Hate "Human in Equestria."
