"Furries For SCIENCE!" - Donate computing power to a noble cause and represent the fandom!
Hello r/furry! I've started a new group for furries on World Community Grid. WCG is a large public grid computing network which aims to provide massive computing resources for research projects which benefit humanity. What these projects all have in common is that they require extremely intense calculations to be done on incredibly large data sets to gather important information. By joining and donating idle CPU time you weren't using anyway, you can help make the world a better place.
So why am I posting this in r/furry? As the title says, there's a newly formed computing team just for furries! Please join to represent the fandom and demonstrate how furries can make a positive impact when they work together. You can view team statistics here. To sign up with World Community Grid and join Furries For SCIENCE!, go here.
ADDENDUM: No, it doesn't slow your computer down. It runs at the lowest possible priority level. If you try to play a fancy 3D game while it's running it might shave a few FPS off your performance but you can pause the processing at any time if you need to, or tune the CPU usage to your liking.
ADDENDUM II: Those skeptical about the legitimacy of the project should check out the following page on IBM's official website. (IBM is the main sponsor of World Community Grid) It has plenty of info.

Furry newbie seeks furry resources.
Hi My name is Jack and from the start of the year I have become more & more interested in furrys & the furryfandom. I was just wondering if anyone can help me get more involved. Eg any books, comics, movies, website/blogs I should look at. Any help would be much appreciated.

Anthro Calendars for 2013
September is when folks usually start taking orders for art-calendars for the following year — and this one is no exception. Orders are now open for the 2013 Werewolf Calendar, featuring lycanthropic-themed works from artists like Goldenwolf, Kyoht, Vantid, Balaa [See Below], Nimrais, Kyndir, Katie Hofgard, Myenia, and more. According to the calendar web site, orders will open at midnight on September 1st, and the first 150 orders will receive a free werewolf sticker and bookmark as well. Then there’s the Rare Calendar for 2013, which every year features anthropomorphic versions of rare or endangered species — and this year, also features the theme of world cultures. The artists involved include Ashalind, CentraDragon, Tiina Purin, Donna Quinn, SilverFox5213, AlectorFencer, Katmomma, Qzurr, Nimrais, Heather Bruton, BloodhoundOmega, Windfalcon, and Kaji. Orders are being taken right now at the Rare Calender web site.

Furry Wants to Rejoin a Local Furgroup after a Nasty Break-up with Lover
I never thought that I would be writing you a second time, but I seriously don't know what to do.
A few months ago, I got into an altercation with my ex, which escalated until I was forced to leave our local furry group (it was either me take myself out or it come to physical blows with him). But now I want to come back, the only problem is, the furs in the group, my "friends" wont talk to me anymore. I've sent several messages to several people but no one responds and the furs I do talk to have been talking to me less and less. I want to have fun, but I feel if I go anywhere, they would leave. So, my question is this:
Did I do something wrong for them to hate me?
Ingavar

Dear Ingavar,
Although I am sorry you have to write to me about another problem, Papabear is flattered you are asking him again and hoping that the first situation you had (readers, see http://www.askpapabear.com/1/post/2012/07/after-10-bad-relationships-furry-is-reluctant-to-trust-in-new-love.html) has been resolved satisfactorily.
Papabear doesn’t know what all went on exactly between you and this group of furries before, so I can’t know if you did “something wrong” to them, but let’s assume it was nothing and it was all just between you and your ex. Now I am also guessing that your ex still belongs to this group that you wish to rejoin. A couple things could be happening here, then: 1) while you were away, your ex said all sorts of nasty things about you in your absence to these other furries, thus poisoning their minds with his viewpoint of the break up and how it was all your fault, or 2) if your ex is still there, the other furries are not too anxious to have a broken-up couple in their midst because it could possibly blow up again and cause a lot of unwanted drama within the group.
None of this can be resolved unless they are willing to communicate with you, which they appear unwilling to do. If you wish to keep trying, one strategy would be to find a moderator, a go-between to link you up with these furries. It would have to be someone both sides are cool with and who is, in turn, objective and willing to help. A person like that is pretty damn rare, sorry to say.
Another thing you can try is to make friends with your ex. That is to say, not get back with him, but talk to him and say, “Hey, we had our differences and I’m sorry for what happened, but it would be nice if we could be friends again and just hang out with the rest of our buddies.” Try to bury the hatchet, and if you can do that, ask your ex to talk to those in the local group and see if they will let you back in with a promise that there will be no drama because all the bitterness has been put behind you.
If you can’t talk to the others and everyone remains stubborn and close-minded, then, sadly, there is nothing more to be done, except hope that you live in a community where there are other furries besides these people with whom you can make friends and start over.
Not the best of news, perhaps, but I hope it gives you some perspective on the problem, Ingavar.
Good luck!
Papabear
