Pony Designs For Russian Aeroflot Company
According to some Russian fans, the Russian air transportation company Aeroflot is holding a competition on what design to pick for the paint job on their new Sukhoy Superjet 100. Of course ponies are in the running with a Rainbow Dash and Derpy design already submitted. If you want to participate in the contest you need to first register on the site and cast a vote between March 1st and March 11th (Though considering Rainbow Dash and Derpy belong to Hasbro, them actually using the designs if they win will probably still be unlikely unfortunately). Check out the designs and the link below!

Chalk Ponies - Update
Last night we had some chalk ponies created by the very talented Carnegie Mellon bronies displayed in the Roundup. Since then they have dug up some better pictures and have created a summary of the event, all of which can be found below.
Copy Paste:
On Saturday, about a dozen of us got together and drew this giant picture of 14 fillies and a logo. We drew the mane 6, Derpy, Bon Bon, Lyra, Trixie, Zecora, Big Mac, Luna, and Celestia. The drawing took us over four hours and ended up being a couple thousand square feet. The original source image can be found at http://mlp-vectorclub.

Ohio Bronies - Mocha Meet
Copy Paste:
Hay you people from the northeast! Tired of driving south all the time because everything is always all the way down in Columbus? Well, I've got great news for you! You get to drive in a totally different direction for a meetup now, because we're going to have a meetup that's far away from everyone! Or so we think... let's find out.
On Saturday, January 26, at 1pm, let's meet at the Mocha House in Warren. This is a neat coffee house – one of my favorite coffee places, actually. They have a full menu, and also a huge selection of cakes and giant cookies and many delicious pastries. They also have a lot of space, which means we can move a few tables around, take over the place, and then buy all their art.
After that, we can venture over to the Eastwood Mall, about a ten-minute drive from the Mocha House. This is a fairly massive complex featuring an aquarium, a minor-league baseball stadium and at least two movie theaters. Most importantly, yes, there is a Toys'R'Us. We can wander the mall, go see a movie, whatever. There are also a ton of good restaurants where we can go for dinner, and a few more places we can just hang out. Once everyone's together, we can figure out what we're doing.
Sunday: I dunno lol. We can come up with something depending on turnout.
So if you're any of the bajillion places that are within an hour of here (Cleveland, Akron, Canton, Ashtabula, and even Pittsburgh are all about the same distance away), come hang out! It'll be fun.
