# Robin Miller (journalist)

**Robin Lee Miller** (October 27, 1949 – August 25, 2021) was an American motorsports journalist. Miller was best known for being a writer at *The Indianapolis Star* from 1968–2001. He also wrote for *Autoweek*, *Car and Driver*, *ESPN* and *Speed*. At the time of his death, he was a correspondent and senior writer for *RACER* magazine and website, while also reporting on IndyCar Series broadcasts for NBCSN.

## Racing career

Miller first visited the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in 1957, and attended his first Indianapolis 500 in 1959. In 1968, at the age of 18, he got to "stooge" for his driving hero Jim Hurtubise at Indy. Miller was hired for free to do odd jobs with the pit crew, but was fired before the end of the month after he ruined the paint job on Hurtubise's car.

Miller became friends with chief mechanic Bill Finley, and driver Art Pollard. From 1971–78 (concurrent to his work with *The Star*), Miller began working on pit crews at the Indianapolis 500. It was common during that time for racing teams to hire extra freelance help for the Indy 500 due to the extended (month-long) work commitment. He was assigned to various jobs, such as the pit board and vent man, but never worked mechanically on the cars. Finley, one of the last true chief mechanics at Indianapolis, described Miller as "without a mechanical bone in his body."

In 1972, he bought his first race car, from Andy Granatelli. He raced a Formula Ford in 1972, and then bought a midget car in 1974 from Gary Bettenhausen. He then competed in USAC midgets from 1975–83. Miller's best race came in 1980 when he qualified 5th out of 93 cars for the annual "Hut 100" at the Terre Haute Action Track, a dirt race that featured 33 starters in 11 rows of three like Indy and also sported several top Indy drivers of the time. He considered that race the highlight of his career, however, he blew his engine and dropped out.

After about ten years, he quit driving due to his lack of mechanical knowledge, and massive debts.

## Media career

### *The Indianapolis Star*

Miller was hired at *The Indianapolis Star* in 1968. His first duties included answering telephones in the sports department. A year later, he was moved into the sports department as a writer. One of his early assignments was a traveling reporter following the Indiana Pacers. During his career, he became a polarizing figure. In 1981, he gained attention when he accused A. J. Foyt of cheating, for which Foyt punched Miller, and the paper issued a retraction. Miller also stirred up controversy, taking on Bobby Knight, the Irsay family, girls' basketball, and female golfers. One of his heated columns led to the girls' basketball team from Franklin College challenging the paper's sports department to a match, and the sportswriters won the game.

Miller worked for 33 years at *The Indianapolis Star*, becoming one of the nation's best known sports writers for Indy car racing. He started covering the Indianapolis 500 in 1969. During the month of May for the Indy 500, in addition to his daily columns, Miller would have side gigs on WNAP-FM, WIBC, WTHR, and *The Bob & Tom Show*. In almost every year from 1978 to 1997, he served as the emcee of the popular Last Row Party. Miller also wrote and reported occasionally about NASCAR, including extensive coverage of the Brickyard 400. Following the 1996 open wheel split, Miller was highly critical of the Indy Racing League and Indianapolis Motor Speedway president Tony George. For this, he drew considerable ire from many locals and from various city leaders, but likewise gained a considerable following from CART supporters. However, he typically stopped short of directly criticizing most of the actual IRL drivers and crew members, explaining that most were hard-working and passionate about their sport, and merely intermixed in a political situation that was largely out of their control. He lost his radio show on WIBC and television job at Channel 13 for his anti-George stance. Eventually, after the department reorganized, Miller's duties shifted from columnist to focus solely on auto racing.

In January 2001, Miller was fired from the *Star*. The reasons given for his release were violations of the company's e-mail policy as well as the ethics policy. He reportedly sent abusive e-mails to readers, sent pornographic material to co-workers, and sent defamatory e-mails about local community leaders (namely Tony George and Colts officials). He also was charged with accepting $2,500 from Kenny Bräck for work on his web site (Miller claims he never received the money), and being paid to write promotional material for CART, which violated company policy. Miller filed a grievance over the dismissal, however, it was dismissed. An outside arbitrator ruled that the firing was justified due to "gross misconduct" on the job. Miller contended that the Indianapolis Motor Speedway president Tony George conspired to have him fired, due to his ongoing bad press about the IRL, and that behind the scenes, the Speedway would accept *The Star* as a business partner only if Miller was fired.

### Subsequent jobs

Miller worked as a racing writer/reporter at ESPN from 2001 to 2004. He appeared on programs such as *RPM 2Night* and *SportsCentury*. During that time, he also wrote freelance for Champ Car's website. He was fired in March 2007 from Champ Car after he wrote a critical column that was perceived as undue criticism. The series eventually collapsed and merged with the IRL.

In 2004, Miller joined Speed as a writer and Indy Car "insider." He became a regular contributor to SpeedTV.com, *SPEED Center*, and *WindTunnel with Dave Despain*. He remained at the position until Speed's conversion to Fox Sports 1 in 2013. He was also a writer for *Racer*. With many trusted sources throughout the paddock, Miller has broken several big stories regarding IndyCar racing and the Indy 500, including the 2008 IRL/CCWS unification.

Even though his main focus was IndyCar. Miller also would break big news in the NASCAR world. Through a high source within the sport. Miller was told that RJ Reynolds was leaving NASCAR at the end of 2003. Which mean’t that Winston would no longer be the title sponsor for NASCAR. Miller would also break the news that Brian France would replace Mike Helton the following year.

When asked later on by one of his colleagues in Marty Smith, who mainly did NASCAR at that time. How Miller, who doesn’t make NASCAR his priority of writing in racing. Yet, he broke the biggest two stories NASCAR has had in a decade. Miller responded by saying,”I’m an old guy Marty, I have friends.” Miller would never say who that source was.

### Versus / NBC Sports Network

Starting in 2011, Miller served as an analyst for IndyCar coverage on Versus/NBC Sports Network. His duties included pre-race interviews, commentary, and various pit/garage area reports. At the 2011 Iowa Corn 250, he helped start the popular "grid walk" feature. He later served on the NBC telecasts of the Indianapolis 500 after NBC gained rights to the race in 2019.

## Personal life

Miller graduated from Southport High School in Indianapolis and flunked out of Ball State University "after two very enjoyable quarters." He also spent one semester at IUPUI. His first car was a 1962 Ford Galaxie.

Miller never married.

He claimed to have lost over $250,000 in gambling and stated that the worst moment in his career was when he lost his friend Art Pollard during practice for the Indy 500 in 1973.

Miller announced he had terminal leukemia in July 2021. He died in Indianapolis on August 25, 2021, at age 71. His death came twelve days after he was honored at a special Hall of Fame induction ceremony during the Brickyard weekend at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

## Legacy

Miller was inducted into the Motorsports Hall of Fame of America as part of the class of 2021. He was inducted in the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame in 2022 as a journalist.

Based on the 1935 Austrian film *Episode* written and directed by Walter Reisch, the film is about a gifted young violinist who considers leaving a prestigious music academy to play in a jazz band to earn money. The academy's new president—a distinguished wealthy patron of the arts—convinces her to stay after secretly arranging a scholarship for her out of his own pocket, and the two begin attending concerts together.

The film is notable for Heinz Eric Roemheld's musical direction and Ray Heindorf's unique swing orchestral arrangements of classical pieces. *My Love Came Back* was released by Warner Bros. Pictures in the United States on July 13, 1940.

## Plot

A beautiful young violinist named Amelia Cornell is a student at the prestigious Brissac Academy of Music in New York City. Unable to support her mother on her meager scholarship stipend, she is forced to provide music lessons in her spare time—something strictly forbidden by the school and enforced zealously by the dean of the school, Dr. Kobbe. Frustrated by her financial constraints and at being treated like a child by the dean, Amelia decides to leave the academy and join a jazz group led by her fellow student and swing bandleader Dusty Rhodes.

Meanwhile, after seeing Amelia perform at a concert, a distinguished wealthy patron of the arts, Julius Malette, finally accepts the academy's offer to make him president of the school—an offer inspired by Julius' wealth and influence. When he learns that Amelia is planning to leave the academy for financial reasons, Julius—who has a crush on the much younger violinist—secretly arranges for a second scholarship that will allow her to continue her studies. After Amelia meets her patron, the kind and gentlemanly president sends her a phonograph player and records, and escorts her to concerts to broaden her musical experience.

One evening, Julius is unable to attend a concert with Amelia and sends his young business manager, Tony Baldwin, to the concert hall to explain his absence. In the coming days, Tony and Amelia begin to fall in love, but Tony does not reveal his feelings, believing that Amelia is his boss's mistress.

The budding relationship between Tony and Amelia is further complicated when Julius' brash son Paul discovers that Tony has been mailing company checks to Amelia, unaware that these "scholarship" checks were mailed at his father's request. When Paul accuses Tony of misappropriating company funds, Tony protects his boss with his silence. Later, Paul sees his Julius entering Amelia's apartment, he believes that his father is being unfaithful to his mother. He apologizes to Tony and thanks him for trying to shield his family from the sordid news. When Paul tells Tony that Julius is with Amelia, Tony decides not to see Amelia again, nor answer her calls. His distrust is reinforced when he learns that the checks sent to Amelia have been cashed—he doesn't know that her friend Dusty "borrowed" the money.

Soon after, Julius and his wife organize a party and hire Amelia's roommate, Joy O'Keefe, and her boyfriend, Dusty Rhodes, to provide an evening of innovative classical and swing music. At the party, Amelia confesses everything to Mrs. Malette, and then plays swing violin with the band, shocking Julius and her teacher. The music critic at the party, however, is impressed, which gives her new style legitimacy. When Amelia learns that Dusty "borrowed" her check, and how that must have looked to Tony, she demands that Dusty explain to Tony what had been going on. Afterwards, Tony approaches Amelia in the garden, apologizes for his suspicions, and kisses her passionately.

## Critical response

In his review for *The New York Times*, Bosley Crowther gave the film a positive review, calling it "a featherlight frolic, a rollicking roundelay of deliciously pointed nonsense". Crowther praised Kurt Bernhardt for his directing the film "in a spirit of pure delight", and Ivan Goff, Robert Buckner, and Earl Baldwin for their effervescent writing. Crowther also praised the cast for their "gayly scampering performance", noting:

> As the compromised young heroine of the show, Miss De Havilland plays the part with pace and wit. Mr. Lynn is briskly present, Eddie Albert is practically perfect as the young zany of swing who intermittently thinks of suicide. The rest of the cast is in excellent order. But as the elderly gentleman who feels his youth coming back Mr. Winninger almost steals the show. He's an innocent at heart, even in a naughty escapade.

Crowther concluded that the film was as "refreshing as a gin fizz on a hot day".

In the *New Masses* review, published on July 30, 1940, the reviewer wrote that the film takes the "comedy of mistaken intentions" genre and returns some of the "freshness and spontaneity" of the original idea. The review continues:

> Under Kurt Bernhardt's direction the fable gets off to a slow start, gradually picks up momentum and humorous incident as it moves along. Most of the credit for the humor should go to Charles Winninger's effective handling of the old man Malette. He's a genuine comic ... neither overplays nor overmugs.

title: New World porcupine

abstract: The New World porcupines, family Erethizontidae, are large arboreal rodents, distinguished by their spiny coverings from which they take their name. They inhabit forests and wooded regions across North America, and into northern South America.

# New World porcupine

The **New World porcupines**, family **Erethizontidae**, are large arboreal rodents, distinguished by their spiny coverings from which they take their name. They inhabit forests and wooded regions across North America, and into northern South America. Although both the New World and Old World porcupine families belong to the Hystricognathi branch of the vast order Rodentia, they are quite different and are not closely related.

## Characteristics

New World porcupines are stout animals, with blunt, rounded heads, fleshy, mobile snouts, and coats of thick, cylindrical or flattened spines. The "quills" are mixed with long, soft hairs. They vary in size from the relatively small prehensile-tailed porcupines, which are around 30 cm (12 in) long, and weigh about 900 g (32 oz), to the much larger North American porcupine, which has a body length of 86 cm (34 in), and weighs up to 18 kg (40 lb).

They are distinguished from the Old World porcupines in that they have rooted molars, complete collar bones, entire upper lips, tuberculated soles, no trace of first front toes, and four teats.

They are less strictly nocturnal than Old World species in their habits, and some types live entirely in trees, while others have dens on the ground. Their long and powerful prehensile tails help them balance when they are in the tree tops. Their diets consist mainly of bark, leaves, and conifer needles, but can also include roots, stems, berries, fruits, seeds, nuts, grasses, and flowers. Some species also eat insects and small reptiles. Their teeth are similar to those of Old World porcupines, with the dental formula 1.0.1.31.0.1.3.

Solitary offspring (or, rarely, twins) are born after a gestation period of up to 210 days, depending on the species. The young are born fully developed, with open eyes, and are able to climb trees within a few days of birth.

## Genera and species

They include three genera, of which the first is represented by the North American porcupine (*Erethizon dorsatum*), a stout, heavily built animal, with long hairs almost or quite hiding its spines, four front and five hind toes, and a short, stumpy tail. It is a native of the greater part of Canada and the United States, where any remnant of the original forest is left.

The tree porcupines (*Coendou*) contain 17 species. They are found throughout tropical South America, with two extending into Mexico. They are of a lighter build than the ground porcupines, with short, close, many-coloured spines, often mixed with hairs, and prehensile tails. The hind feet have only four toes, owing to the suppression of the first, in place of which they have a fleshy pad on the inner side of the foot; between this pad and the toes, branches and other objects can be firmly grasped as with a hand. These three genera are often united into a single genus *Coendou*.

Genus *Chaetomys*, distinguished by the shape of its skull and the greater complexity of its teeth, contains the bristle-spined rat (*C. subspinosus*), a native of the hottest parts of Brazil. This animal is often considered a member of Echimyidae on the basis of its premolars. However, a molecular phylogeny based on the mitochondrial gene coding for cytochrome b combined to karyological evidence actually suggests the bristle-spined rat is more closely related to the Erethizontidae than to the Echimyidae, and is the sister group of all other Erethizontidae.

Outside toys, *My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic* (an animated television series commissioned by Hasbro Studios) has served as a flagship media from 2010 until 2019; additionally, one animated feature film (*My Little Pony: The Movie*) and two television specials (*Best Gift Ever* and *Rainbow Roadtrip*) were produced during the period.

In late 2019, Hasbro have revamped the appearance of pony characters. The new toys with renewed, caricatured appearance were released in November 2019.

The toyline often features nine characters – Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rarity, Spike the Dragon, Princess Celestia, and Princess Luna – who are also the major protagonists in the *Friendship Is Magic* television series and other related media.

Beginning in 2013, the toys of Twilight Sparkle (originally a unicorn) were modified to have a pair of wings as well, a move that sparked criticism. Other official media followed the suit to reflect that, with *Friendship Is Magic* television series having a dedicated episode as a finale of season 3, and IDW's *Friendship Is Magic* comics reflecting the change since Issue #13 (November 2013).

With Hasbro's November 2019 announcement of *My Little Pony: Pony Life* television series, which features ponies in a revamped, caricatured appearance, relevant toys were released in the same month.

Playful PoniesThe first line of the toys were the Playful Ponies. These feature a pony with brushable hair, a saddle or wagon, an animal companion and a comb. The first six ponies released were Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack and Rarity. There are also promotional packs: two-packs, released in Europe. Event Singles were also released in a particular month, including a Valentine's Day Pinkie Pie, released in February 2011, and an Easter Fluttershy, released in April 2011.Hasbro later announced that the second wave of toys would be released in March 2011. Due to the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, however, the release was postponed and the toys were released the following month. The second wave omits Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy and includes two new ponies: Cheerilee and Lily Blossom. The third wave was released in May 2011, introducing four new ponies: Cupcake, Lulu Luck, Dewdrop Dazzle and Blossomforth. Wave four was released in July 2011, introducing six new ponies: Feathermay, Flitterheart, Snowcatcher, Twinkleshine, Honeybuzz and Plumsweet.The fifth wave was released in early 2012, with two new debuting characters: Cherry Pie and Diamond Rose. Later on in May 2012, Lyra Heartstrings, Trixie Lulamoon, Cherry Berry and Sunny Rays, characters who first appeared in the *Friendship Is Magic* television series, also debuted as playful ponies. Collector seriesIn the 2012 New York Toy Fair, Hasbro announced plans to release several exclusive toys for collectors. The characters represented were actually requested by fans of the animated series and were released in September 2012. The characters in this line include an animation accurate Princess Celestia, Nightmare Moon, DJ Pon-3, Lemony Gem, Flower Wishes/Daisy and Zecora. Story packsStory packs (the playsets in the toyline) include at least one pony, one large playset piece and numerous accessories, and were released like the Playful Ponies, as in previous incarnations. Story-pack exclusives include Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, Sweetie Swirl, Star Swirl (Europe only), Princess Cadance and Shining Armor. Ride-Along PoniesThe Ride-Along Ponies are special versions of the Playful Ponies, each with a scooter and an animal companion. Three sets were released in July 2011 with Wave Four of the Playful Ponies. So-Soft NewbornThese versions are identical in design to their "G3" counterparts, except they are plush-bodied and are designed to be resemble infants. There are seven characters are in this line: Sunny Daze, Sweetie Belle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Apple Sprout, Princess Skyla and Spike. Each of them includes a pacifier or a bottle. Shine Bright PoniesThe Shine Bright Ponies have a light-up section when their saddle is pressed. They are slightly bigger than the Playful Ponies, and their legs are posable. The ponies Rarity, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash were released at first. In the United States, Fluttershy, Twilight Sparkle (along with Starbeam Twinkle) and Princess Luna (along with Pinkie Pie) were later released as Target exclusives. Fashion Style PoniesFashion Style Ponies are larger versions of the Playful Ponies, each with a unique dress and accessories; two were released each wave. Glimmer Wing PoniesThe Glimmer Wing Ponies have butterfly-like wings on their backs which can be moved. The ponies are: Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Ploomette. In 2012, Daisy Dreams and Fluttershy were released. Later sets included Glimmer Wings Sweet Song and Fluttershy and Glimmer Wings Diamond Rose and Pinkie Pie. "Sonic Rainboom", the sixteenth episode of *Friendship Is Magic* season 1, acts as a tie-in. Jumbo plushIn the United States, several jumbo-plush pony characters were released as Toys "R" Us exclusives, while a Special Storyteller Twilight Sparkle Plush was released as a Target exclusive. Ponyville singlesThe Ponyville singles are small, molded plastic toys. The main method of distribution is in individual, opaque bags so that the toy inside cannot be seen. In the United States, these toys have also been released in collector sets. CanterlotReleased in 2011, it is a line centering on Canterlot, the capital city of Equestria, where Princesses Celestia and Luna live. In the United States, it was released exclusively on Target stores, as Hasbro had an agreement in July 2011. Pony Royal Wedding and the Crystal EmpireIn 2012, Hasbro revealed several new toys in the 2012 New York Toy Fair, themed around a royal wedding between characters Princess Cadance and Shining Armor. Alongside the release of them, several new characters were confirmed to be released as Playful Ponies as well as characters that were requested by the fans to be released in toy form. The promotion included the same themed area in stores with dedicated stands and signage, and a two-part finale of season 2 of *Friendship is Magic*, titled "A Canterlot Wedding". Potion PoniesReleased in November 2019 in the United States, the toys in this line share the caricatured appearance with the ponies in the *Pony Life* animated series. A person styles the pony’s mane and tail by pouring a "potion" (or spraying it, depending on the product) over the pony.

## Media

### Animated productions

*My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic* is an animated television series produced by DHX Media's 2D animation studio (formerly known as Studio B Productions) in Vancouver, Canada, for Hasbro Studios (now Allspark) in the United States. The series premiered on Sunday, October 10, 2010 on The Hub (now Discovery Family), an American television channel partly owned by Hasbro. *Friendship Is Magic* was developed by Lauren Faust, who was a fan of the original property in her youth, and invented her own adventure stories for the toys in place of the stereotypical "girly" stories from the 1980s' features. The series became the most successful show on The Hub, popularized the brand, and gained a notable fan following.

An animated feature film based on the *Friendship Is Magic* characters was first announced on October 20, 2014, in an interview with Hasbro Studios CEO Stephen Davis by *Variety*. Released on October 6, 2017, in the United States, the new *My Little Pony: The Movie* is Hasbro's first animated feature film from its Allspark Pictures film division. It was distributed worldwide by Lionsgate, with the exception of China. Thiessen directed the film with McCarthy writing the film and act as the film's co-executive producer alongside Mike Vogel. Originally, Joe Ballarini was the scriptwriter for the film.

The film concerns the "Mane Six" ponies – Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity – journeying beyond Equestria to stop a threat looming over their hometown of Ponyville.

The main cast from *Friendship Is Magic* reprised their roles alongside original characters voiced by Kristin Chenoweth, Emily Blunt, Michael Peña, Uzo Aduba, Liev Schreiber, Taye Diggs, Sia, and Zoe Saldana.

Two television specials were produced during the period. *My Little Pony: Best Gift Ever*, a holiday season special animated at DHX Media's Vancouver 2D animation studio, was first broadcast in the United States on October 27, 2018 on Discovery Family. Another special, *My Little Pony: Rainbow Roadtrip*, was animated at Boulder Media (an Irish studio which Hasbro acquired in 2016) and broadcast on June 29, 2019 on Discovery Family.

*My Little Pony: Pony Life*, another animated television series commissioned by Allspark Animation, premiered in the United States on November 7, 2020 on Discovery Family. The series, which succeeds *Friendship Is Magic*, features ponies in a caricatured appearance. The cast of six main characters in *Friendship Is Magic* have reprised their roles in the new series. Hasbro also plans to release additional animated shorts on My Little Pony's official YouTube channel.

### Interactive software

In conjunction with Ruckus Media, Hasbro released an iOS application *Twilight Sparkle, Teacher for a Day* in October 2011. It gives children practice in reading, incorporating mini-games. Several eBooks based on *Friendship Is Magic*, including story versions of the Ruckus applications, have been released for the Barnes & Noble Nook, in partnership with Hasbro.

Hasbro has licensed Gameloft to create *Friendship Is Magic* video games for mobile devices, with the first game, *My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic*, reaching the market on November 8, 2012. The first game is a village-building game, featuring action-based mini-games for iOS and Android devices. Though the game is aimed at younger players, Gameloft's Barnabé Anglade stated that there are nods to the show's brony fandom, such as the inclusion of fan-favorite characters and popular background ponies.

### Publications

#### Comics

The American *My Little Pony* comics are published by IDW Publishing under license from Hasbro. The first issue of the flagship title, *Friendship Is Magic*, was published in November 2012, and has proven a highly successful venture with a larger circulation than most competing titles. The series is written by Katie Cook and illustrated by Andy Price. The first issue, by early October, had already gained over 90,000 pre-orders, making it a better seller than other comics for that month. By early November, the title had exceeded 100,000 pre-orders, and IDW committed to a second run of the issue to meet the additional demand. The first issue features 19 different covers, most exclusive to specific comic book shops and chains and only available in limited numbers. The comic, through its first eight issues, remains IDW's most successful title, and along with *The Walking Dead*, remain one of the few non-DC, non-Marvel comics to regularly break the top 100 comics sold each month.

A series of Japanese comics by Akira Himekawa began appearing in Shogakukan's *Pucchigumi* magazine in Japan on August 12, 2013. It was tied in with the Japanese launch of the 2010 incarnation in early 2013 by the license holders at the time, We've Inc. and Bushiroad (All of relevant regional licenses were later taken over by Sega Toys). The first Akira Himekawa series completed its run in February 2014. The second, 80-page trade paperback was released on October 16, 2014.

Seven Seas Entertainment is releasing a series of comics with manga aesthetics titled *My Little Pony: The Manga – A Day in the Life of Equestria* (not to be confused with 2013 Japanese comics), with the first book having been released in June 2019.

Various "stock comics" also appeared in multiple languages for certain mainstream children's magazines, such as UK-based Redan Publishing's *Sparkle World*.

#### Literature

Hasbro has partnered with Little, Brown and Company to publish several children's books aimed at different reading levels involving the *Friendship Is Magic* franchise, including an official series guidebook, starting in April 2013. As of January 2016, more than 3 million *My Little Pony* books published by the company have been sold, and they have extended their Hasbro deal through to 2018, as well as adding other Hasbro properties such as *Transformers*.

Originally set for release in late 2014 but ultimately released digitally on June 2, 2015, the album and in retail June 23, 2015, contains 13 tracks that remix the original show compositions from Ingram with various artists.

### Card games

Enterplay, LLC has been licensed to create trading cards of *Friendship Is Magic*, with a first set released in early 2012 and a second set published in 2013. In addition to the base cards, Enterplay has offered limited edition cards at various fan conventions, which have since become of card collector's value. A *Friendship Is Magic*-themed collectible card game by Enterplay, *My Little Pony Collectible Card Game*, was released in November 2013. The card game has been considered successful by Enterplay, helping them to boost their sales within the hobby game sector, and have led to several expansions to the card series.

### Others

In April 2013, Hasbro and Build-A-Bear Workshop began offering *Friendship Is Magic*-based plush toys for customization. Sales of My Little Pony toys were three times as large in 2013 than in 2003, and have helped Hasbro to promote other lines of toys aimed at girls. Hasbro stated that merchandising tied to *Friendship Is Magic* lead to franchise sales over $650 million in 2014, and others have considered the show's popularity to make 2015 the "year of the unicorn" for toy and related manufacturers.

On April 16, 2013, World Trade Jewelers signed a deal with Hasbro to make *Friendship Is Magic* jewelry. The collection was released for consumer release in October 2013.

A video game based on the fifth iteration of the franchise, titled *My Little Pony: A Maretime Bay Adventure*, was released in May 27, 2022 on the Nintendo Switch.

## Fandom

Despite Hasbro's target demographic of young girls and their parents, this incarnation of the franchise has become a cultural and Internet phenomenon with the new fandom generated by *Friendship Is Magic* television series, having many male fans between 13 and 35. The response from the Internet has been traced to cartoon and animation fans on the Internet board 4chan, responding to Amidi's negative essay regarding the show and current trends in animation. As a result of the discussion on 4chan, interest in the show spread throughout other parts of the Internet, creating a large fanbase and a multitude of creative works, fan sites, and conventions. The fanbase has adopted the name "brony" (a portmanteau of "bro" and "pony") to describe themselves. The older fanbase had come as a surprise to Hasbro and staff members involved with the show. They have appreciated and embraced the fandom, adding nods to the fans within the show and the toys.

# My Love (The-Dream song)

"**My Love**" is the second single from The-Dream's second studio album, *Love vs. Money*, featuring Mariah Carey. It was written by Carey, The-Dream, and Carlos McKinney, and produced by The-Dream and McKinney.

## Release

The single release was released to U.S. Top 40/Mainstream radio on January 27, 2009. It was sent to Urban and rhythmic radio on February 25, 2009. The song was released as digital download in the United States and Canada on February 24, 2009.

## Song information

The-Dream wrote the lyrics of the song with Mariah Carey in mind already before approaching the singer. Doubtful whether she, or her Island Def Jam Music Group label boss L. A. Reid would approve the duet, The-Dream started spreading news of the duet in various interviews. Reid was reportedly irritated by the producer's cunning move, but finally gave Carey permission to record it after she stated her interest in the song. 'My hunch was right, I just spoke it into existence.', commented The-Dream.

## Critical reception

Reviews of the song have been positive. *Billboard* magazine gave it a positive review saying it "may rewrite the history books" as they praised Carey's vocal performance saying "she relates wholeheartedly to the lyric, giving a gutsy, husky performance at the climax." In its review of *Love vs. Money*, *Delusions of Adequacy* stated that "There are slices of spicy, bumping R&B, like the Mariah Carey-featured, 'My Love', all-encompassing, confidence, laid-back jams like Mr. Yeah." Slant Magazine said: "'My Love', a ballad featuring a surprisingly restrained Carey jumping through Nash's hoops with all the docility of a tamed lion." PopMatters stated that "'My Love' takes the slow jam feel of "Rockin' That Shit" and puts Mariah Carey over it."

## Music video

The music video was shot in Los Angeles on Saturday, January 31 and was directed by Carey's then-husband Nick Cannon. The one-block stretch of South Pecan Street was closed to traffic and promptly at 3:30pm, the video shooting commenced with a scene showing Carey on a house porch singing.

The video starts with Carey and The-Dream in the kitchen talking about unpaid bills. He then storms out and is seen in a penthouse singing. Later in the video, Carey is seen cooking, and then on a porch singing. She gets ice cream with two kids, and The-Dream sees her and picks her up. During various parts of the video, Carey is seen singing in a bed, and in a parking lot with The-Dream and other people from the area.

The music video premiered exclusively on March 9, 2009, on MTV's networks and website. Since the video's premier, it has been viewed over 140,000 times on MTV website. The music video can be seen on Yahoo! Music. It impacted BET and was on the voting list of *106 & Park* show. The music video was made available on iTunes on March 17, 2009.

It debuted at number 5 on the U.S. *Billboard* Hot Videoclip Tracks chart.

# Rolling Stars and Planets

**Rolling Stars and Planets** is an Austrian visual art project of exhibitions and performances with sphere objects. The project mastered by Elisabeth Ledersberger-Lehoczky is joined by about 25 artists who come mostly from Austria, but also from Hungary and Germany.

## Design

The Rolling Stars and Planets are spherical art objects, standardized in size and basic material, but individually designed by each artist. The globes are painted, or designed as objects. The circumfluent frame, concepted by Ledersberger-Lehoczky, consist of ring-shaped Aluminium-hoops with a diameter of about 100 cm. This frame is associated with the orbits of Celestial bodies. It provides the reservation of the artworks and alleviates the moving.

The inner Parts with a diameter of about 75 cm have been designed by the artist individually using themes like Astronomy, Astrology, Mythology and Legends.

## Development

In Autumn 2008 Ledersberger-Lehoczky and István Jankovics organized a Symposium in the *Gothard Observatorium of Astrophysics* of the Eötvös Loránd University in Szombathely. The main Theme was "Men in space". During this event sculptures of five sculptors have been shown. During the "Planetra Science Congress" 2008 in Münster Ledersberger-Lehoczky presented an art project which was decided to accompany the Year of Astronomy 2009.

A collective action with individual designed sphere-objects was arranged during a meeting in Vienna between Günther Frank and Elisabeth Ledersberger-Lehoczky. Günther Frank suggested the moving of the globes in public spaces.

In the Year of Astronomy 2009 25 visual artists, many of them members of the Austrian association of professional art in Vienna and Graz, designed spherical paintings and objects. The artists used techniques like Painting, Collage or Object Art.

Adapted to each globe painting the executing artist made a description, in which he declared his technique and the matter of his artwork.

The first event started on April 4, 2009 in front of the Kunsthistorischen Museum in Vienna. The artists rolled their artworks around the Maria Theresia-monument.

In May 2009 the *BiondekBühne Theater- und Tanzwerkstatt* in Baden near Vienna created a choreography for a group of 14 dancers, the "Ladies-First-Ladies". This choreography concerned with the Rolling Stars and Planets was shown in Baden and in Linz while this City was European Capital of Culture. The performancers *SF - SlowForward* showed the choreography "Breath of the Cosmos", which had been especially created for the Rolling Stars and Plandets. Linz September 3, 2009

# Freemium Isn't Free

"**Freemium Isn't Free**" is the sixth episode in the eighteenth season of the American animated television series *South Park*. The 253rd episode overall, it was written and directed by series co-creator and co-star Trey Parker. The episode premiered on Comedy Central in the United States on November 5, 2014. The episode lampoons the popularity of freemium mobile apps made by other adult animated series such as *The Simpsons: Tapped Out* and *Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff*. The episode links addiction to freemium games to other addictions, including alcoholism and gambling addiction, and their possible genetic predisposition. The episode was nominated for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program at the 67th Primetime Emmy Awards.

## Plot

Jimmy runs into Kyle at school and tells him about the newest game, a mobile app (which closely resembles games such as *The Simpsons Tapped Out* and *Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff*) based on Terrance and Phillip, and encourages Kyle to download it, since it is free. As Kyle plays, he discovers that the game offers freemium upgrades. In Canada, the Prince of Canada and the Minister of Mobile Gaming are amazed at the profits they are getting, when Terrance and Phillip enter, angry that their likenesses have been used to make a game without consulting them and how it is not free, since it charges premiums. The Prince and Minister disclose they have purposefully created a boring game based on the concept of mobile RPGs, and that everyone is doing it.

Randy and Sharon Marsh yell at Stan for spending $489 on the app. Randy worries that Stan may have inherited a gambling problem due to Grampa Marvin Marsh having compulsive gambling issues, as Sharon accuses Randy of having his own compulsive issues with alcohol. Terrance and Phillip begrudgingly accept that since everyone is making boring games and getting micropayments for them, then it must be acceptable. Stan is visited by Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny because Stan skipped school just to play. They realize that Jimmy told all of them about the game. Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny confront Jimmy and make him admit that he is being paid to push the game to others. Terrance and Phillip raise concerns about people spending excess money on micropayments, so the Prince and the Minister agree to fund a campaign to play the game in moderation, much like alcohol industry advertisements do. Randy takes Stan to see Marvin, who is addicted to a slot machine, and then confronts Stan and Marvin about their obsessive personalities, as Marvin retorts that Randy is obsessive about alcohol. Stan and Grampa agree to stop their addictive spending.

Jimmy confesses that he has been pushing the game like a drug dealer because he is addicted to another freemium game, and compares freemium games to drug addictions. Stan gets multiple text alerts about the game and cannot stop himself from playing again, now having charged over $26,000, while Randy's alcohol consumption increases. Stan goes to Kyle, Cartman, Kenny, and Jimmy for help. Jimmy encourages Stan to seek out a higher power for help, much like Alcoholics Anonymous and other similar twelve-step programs. Kyle makes a convoluted plan to tell people how Canada has been hiring pushers to get people addicted, but Cartman instead just tweets the information, and it starts trending. Terrance and Phillip again are angered, as the Minister reveals that he had always planned to exploit the addictive nature of people with the game. Stan prays for help, but is visited by Satan, who explains to him what addictions are.

As Terrance and Phillip continue to listen to the Minister explain his plan, the Minister reveals himself to be the Canadian devil, Beelzaboot (a portmanteau of Beelzebub and the Canadian raising pronunciation of "about"). Satan realizes that the game is from Canada (particularly immediately realizing it is from Beelzaboot, despite Satan previously urging him to be more "nuanced" in his temptation), so he possesses Stan (after asking for his permission to do so), then heads to Canada to battle Beelzaboot. Satan defeats Beelzaboot, and Stan is returned to South Park unharmed (to the point his friends react to him literally erupting from the ground in the middle of their basketball game by casually asking if he was okay with vocal indifference). The Prince vows to never produce any more freemium games. While Stan and Marvin play board games to counter their addictive natures, Randy offers to place bets on the outcome, as Stan slams his head on the table in chagrin at Randy's hypocrisy.

## Production

Trey Parker and Matt Stone called "Freemium Isn't Free" their favorite episode of the season. On the DVD audio commentary for this episode, they discussed how the episode formed. Parker and Stone had been pitched by several different companies on the idea of creating a freemium mobile game based on the *South Park* franchise. They were unsure about actually creating the game because they thought the types of games freemium games usually result in were "pretty offensive" in shamelessly asking for money so they decided to do a "shit load of research". During this time, they decided to go ahead and make an episode that revolves around freemium games. The research Parker and Stone did was originally only for fully understanding freemium games but because they had decided to make this episode, the research was very beneficial for the episode.

## Reception

The episode generally received above average reviews from critics. The episode received a B− rating from *The A.V. Club*'s Josh Modell, though he felt that it "dragged a lot". IGN's contributor Max Nicholson gave the episode a 7.5 out of 10, commenting that "it took awhile for this episode to get off the ground, but once it did, it was pretty entertaining". However, Chris Longo from Den of Geek only gave the episode 2 out of 5 stars, calling the episode, along with the previous week's episode "The Magic Bush", "the two weakest episodes of the season".
