'''Biggest Little Fur Con''' is a [[furry]] [[convention]] which was held over May 3-5, 2013, in the [[Wikipedia:Grand Sierra Resort|Grand Sierra Resort]] hotel in [[Wikipedia:Reno, Nevada|Reno, Nevada]], U.S.A. It is the spiritual successor to [[PawFur]]. The con had a total attendance of 704 for 2013 <ref>https://twitter.com/BiggestLittleFC/status/331327992485785601</ref>. This is currently the record for a first year con.

The theme for 2013 was "[[Wikipedia:Roaring Twenties|Roaring Twenties]]."

Planning began in June 2012 after local furs realized the Grand Sierra was an ideal location to host a furry convention, because of:
* A large number of rooms at a low room rate
* A broad spectrum of entertainment provided by the hotel
* A broad spectrum of on-site restaurants
* Close proximity to supply shopping
* Reno's position near the center of the western region of the US, reducing travel costs.

The convention itself was organized around a large central space that housed most con functions; this main space was connected to rooms that housed the remaining functions. The intent was to create a busy space that always had something interesting going on, a space that encouraged social interaction, and a space that provided entertainment for the attendees for the duration of the con.

== Guests of Honour ==
The [[Guests of Honour]] for 2013 were [[Spelunker Sal]], [[Dreamous]] and [[WolfpupTK]].<ref>http://www.biggestlittlefurcon.org/goh.php Retrieved April 1, 2013.</ref>

== Planned events ==
Most of the convention functions were held in one 22,000 square foot room, housing the stage, social space for attendees, tabletop gaming, a photoshoot, and activities designed by the convention to encourage social interaction and artistic expression.
Events were to include:
* Nightly dances
* [[Dealers den]] and [[Art show]]
* A broad selection of electronic gaming
* Panels, mostly on the main stage for maximum exposure and participation
* [[Fursuit games]]
* [[Fursuit]] charades
* Improv show
* Costume show

==Hotel Attractions==
* Go-karts (fursuit-friendly)
* Mini-golf (fursuit-friendly)
* 24-hour bowling (fursuit-friendly)
* Gambling
* 185-foot swing
* Driving range
* Laser tag
* Arcade
* Discount second-run movie theater

Bucker Fuskyote

2011-04-27T23:34:42Z

MooglePower: /* History */

[[Image:Ianthefoxbadge.jpg|thumb|right|Ian's badge by Wolf-of-North.]]

'''Bucker Fuskyote''', aka '''MooglePower''', (born April 21, 1986) is an [[anthropomorphic]] fuskyote ([[husky]], [[coyote]], [[red fox]] hybrid) from the Brentwood Hills neighborhood of [[Wikipedia:Brentwood, Los Angeles, California|Brentwood, Los Angeles, CA]]. He plays many instruments, particularly the piano, celtic harp, dulcimer, whistles, bass guitar, guitar, Irish bouzouki, Irish tenor banjo, and mandolin. He can sing and program computers as well. He's also a big fan of rodeos and frequently attends them. He claims that there is no separation from his real-life and online personalities.

Bucker is a [[gay]] furry. He made up the name mooglepower when he was in the fourth grade, although it's something he'd like to eventually change. Although he's not a [[Wikipedia:moogle|moogle]], he does like moogles a lot.

In real life, Ian is attending [[University of California, Davis|UC Davis]], studying Ethnomusicology.

With his many musical talents, Bucker plays in the Irish traditional music group Barghest. He also sings with The Jumpmen, an a cappella quartet specializing in video game music. His other singing involvements include the UCLA Chorale, Chamber Singers, and Paid Ensemble. He is also a member of the rock group [[Illegal Operation]] and the trio [[Dr. Zayus]] with fellow fur [[Rod O'Riley]]. He sings and plays guitar and keyboard with them.

== History ==

Ian was born on April 21, 1986, at the UCLA medical center. He has always lived in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles, CA. He was originally enrolled in two preschools, Kenter Canyon's Co-op and Brentwood Presbyterian. Eventually, his parents removed him from the Co-op and he finished out his preschool years at Brentwood Pres.

It was during this time that he started to work with computers thanks to his computer-literate aunt who taught him how to use and program an old Apple IIc.

He immediately started attending elementary school at Turningpoint, located then at the Leo Baeck temple in Bel Air, in 1991. He started forming a core friend group at Turningpoint sometime in 2nd grade, consisting of a few of the girls in his grade. Unfortunately, they all left after the 4th grade, and Ian was left in a class of seven other kids feeling somewhat alone until he graduated from Turningpoint in 1998. However, it was during his time at Turningpoint that he discovered his love of music and singing thanks to a particularly inspirational music teacher with whom he took piano and theory lessons for a few years.

He then moved onto Crossroads School for middle and high school. Although a small school, Crossroads turned out to be just what he needed at the time. It provided him with stable in-school, friends and allowed him to explore and grow. He discovered his love of languages thanks to an especially wonderful Latin program and also his love of science, thanks to two extremely inspirational teachers in the W.M. Keck Math & Science Foundation on campus. He also explored his love of performing in musical theatre, ending his time in middle school with the huge production of Cabaret.

During high school, he expanded greatly on his interests, doing work with the [[Wikipedia:Dawn Mission|NASA DAWN project]] (a project to send a probe to the asteroids Vesta and Ceres) and UCLA's LAPD (LArge Plasma Device). He also did two projects under the Keck Math & Science Institute Independent Study program, both in computer science.

All of the science programs didn't stop him from pursuing his love of music. He was a member of the 21st Street Singers and also of the acapella quintet The Acafellas (two time winners of the California Junior Classical League's "That's Entertainment" award). He was also in a touring production of the musical "Godspell".

During all of this, Ian also participated heavily in the California Junior Classical League (CJCL), an organization for the furthering of classical civilization and languages (mostly Latin), culminating in his one-year tenure as the state webmaster during the 2003-2004 school year. The annual state-wide convention (known fondly as "Latin Convention" by attendees) was always the highlight of his year. He continues to attend as a chaperone and judge.

In May 2004, Ian graduated from Crossroads, one of three students named National Merit Scholars out of a class of 110. However, his graduation didn't stop him from being involved with the Crossroads community. He has programmed the high school's grading system and several facets of the attendance system currently in use. He now works seasonally in the IS department, fixing computers, performing server maintenance, and working on various programming projects.

During his senior year, Ian made the decision to apply to ten colleges and universities: five of them public, five of them private. His top choice was always UCLA and when he received his acceptance letter from UCLA, he knew where he was going.

He was accepted as a Marine Biology major but has since found his home in the Linguistics department as a Linguistics and Anthropology major. After getting off to a bit of a confused start (taking a variety of seemingly random courses including Old Norse), he is now on track to completing his major.

During his first year at UCLA, Ian was approached by Jeff and Hanibal and asked to join an as-yet-unnamed a cappella quartet. After settling on a name, The Jumpmen (as they are now called) auditioned for the prestigious Spring Sing competition and were accepted. After performing a medley of songs from the original Super Mario Bros. game to a sold out crowd of over 5000, they found out that they had won an award for their performance. They have most recently recorded several songs for G4TV's Geek Out pilot episode.

Also during his first year at UCLA, he contacted several musicians to form an Irish traditional music group. Now known as Barghest, the quintet proceeded to play in Bruin Plaza, a crowded section of the UCLA campus near to the student union.

In June 2008, Ian graduate from UCLA, earning a B.A. in Linguistics and Anthropology with a minor in Music History. He chose to attend UC Davis for his graduate studies and hopes to earn a PhD in Ethnomusicology. He starts his studies at UC Davis in September 2010.

== Furry History ==

Ian first found furry at the age of 15 thanks to the room #furry_realm on the [[EsperNet]] IRC network. After being a [[horse]] for six months, he decided that he was much more a fox than a horse, owing mostly to his inquisitive yet sly nature.

He attended his first (and last) [[Confurence]] in 2003 and entered the [[Filk]] competition, winning the audience choice award. Although it was his first furry convention, he felt at home and content there.

In addition to Confurence, Ian has attend [[Califur]] [[Califur 0|0]], [[Califur 1|1]], [[Califur 2|2]], [[Califur 3|3]], and [[Califur 4|4]], [[Furry Weekend Atlanta]] [[Furry Weekend Atlanta 2009|2009]], [[Further Confusion]] [[Further Confusion 2005|2005]], [[Further Confusion 2006|2006]], [[Further Confusion 2007|2007]], [[Further Confusion 2008|2008]], and [[Further Confusion 2009|2009]], [[Anthrocon]] [[Anthrocon 2008|2008]], [[Rainfurrest]] [[Rainfurrest 2008|2008]], and [[Midwest FurFest]] [[Midwest FurFest 2008|2008]]. He has performed at most of these cons at whichever version of the variety show is available. He has plans to attend this year's [[Califur]], [[Anthrocon]], and [[Rainfurrest]], so be sure to look for him at those cons.

Immediately after he turned 18, he started attending the [[Rick's Cafe' Terrestrienne]] parties at Rick and Tess's house. After Rick and Tess moved, he continued to attend the parties, now moved to the [[Prancing Skiltaire]]. He is now a semi-regular.

Finally, after more than 5 years in the fandom, Ian chose his fur name: Bucker. He also changed his species again to a fuskyote: a fox, husky, and coyote hybrid. It better reflects his diverse nature and real life multi-racial background.

== Fursuit ==

[[Image:RainFurrest 2008 Bucker.JPG|right|thumb|Bucker at [[RainFurrest 2008]]]]At [[Anthrocon 2008]], Ian received his fursuit from [[Moose BMD]]. The suit is a fox, husky, and coyote hybrid. Suiting instantly became his new obsession and he spends much of his free time in suit where appropriate. He immediately began to practice dancing in fursuit and has taken up dancing as his new hobby.

== Current affairs ==

Ian is working on writing a musical. He is also writing some furry songs for his own enjoyment.

Bucker Fuskyote

2011-02-14T00:25:27Z

MooglePower:

[[Image:Ianthefoxbadge.jpg|thumb|right|Ian's badge by Wolf-of-North.]]

'''Bucker Fuskyote''', aka '''MooglePower''', (born April 21, 1986) is an [[anthropomorphic]] fuskyote ([[husky]], [[coyote]], [[red fox]] hybrid) from the Brentwood Hills neighborhood of [[Wikipedia:Brentwood, Los Angeles, California|Brentwood, Los Angeles, CA]]. He plays many instruments, particularly the piano, celtic harp, dulcimer, whistles, bass guitar, guitar, Irish bouzouki, Irish tenor banjo, and mandolin. He can sing and program computers as well. He's also a big fan of rodeos and frequently attends them. He claims that there is no separation from his real-life and online personalities.

Bucker is a [[gay]] furry. He made up the name mooglepower when he was in the fourth grade, although it's something he'd like to eventually change. Although he's not a [[Wikipedia:moogle|moogle]], he does like moogles a lot.

In real life, Ian is attending [[University of California, Davis|UC Davis]], studying Ethnomusicology.

With his many musical talents, Bucker plays in the Irish traditional music group Barghest. He also sings with The Jumpmen, an a cappella quartet specializing in video game music. His other singing involvements include the UCLA Chorale, Chamber Singers, and Paid Ensemble. He is also a member of the rock group [[Illegal Operation]] and the trio [[Dr. Zayus]] with fellow fur [[Rod O'Riley]]. He sings and plays guitar and keyboard with them.

== History ==

Ian was born on April 21, 1986, at the UCLA medical center. He has always lived in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles, CA. He was originally enrolled in two preschools, Kenter Canyon's Co-op and Brentwood Presbyterian. Eventually, his parents removed him from the Co-op and he finished out his preschool years at Brentwood Pres.

It was during this time that he started to work with computers thanks to his computer-literate aunt who taught him how to use and program an old Apple IIc.

He immediately started attending elementary school at Turningpoint, located then at the Leo Baeck temple in Bel Air, in 1991. He started forming a core friend group at Turningpoint sometime in 2nd grade, consisting of a few of the girls in his grade. Unfortunately, they all left after the 4th grade, and Ian was left in a class of seven other kids feeling somewhat alone until he graduated from Turningpoint in 1998. However, it was during his time at Turningpoint that he discovered his love of music and singing thanks to a particularly inspirational music teacher with whom he took piano and theory lessons for a few years.

He then moved onto Crossroads School for middle and high school. Although a small school, Crossroads turned out to be just what he needed at the time. It provided him with stable in-school, friends and allowed him to explore and grow. He discovered his love of languages thanks to an especially wonderful Latin program and also his love of science, thanks to two extremely inspirational teachers in the W.M. Keck Math & Science Foundation on campus. He also explored his love of performing in musical theatre, ending his time in middle school with the huge production of Cabaret.

During high school, he expanded greatly on his interests, doing work with the [[Wikipedia:Dawn Mission|NASA DAWN project]] (a project to send a probe to the asteroids Vesta and Ceres) and UCLA's LAPD (LArge Plasma Device). He also did two projects under the Keck Math & Science Institute Independent Study program, both in computer science.

All of the science programs didn't stop him from pursuing his love of music. He was a member of the 21st Street Singers and also of the acapella quintet The Acafellas (two time winners of the California Junior Classical League's "That's Entertainment" award). He was also in a touring production of the musical "Godspell".

During all of this, Ian also participated heavily in the California Junior Classical League (CJCL), an organization for the furthering of classical civilization and languages (mostly Latin), culminating in his one-year tenure as the state webmaster during the 2003-2004 school year. The annual state-wide convention (known fondly as "Latin Convention" by attendees) was always the highlight of his year. He continues to attend as a chaperone and judge.

In May 2004, Ian graduated from Crossroads, one of three students named National Merit Scholars out of a class of 110. However, his graduation didn't stop him from being involved with the Crossroads community. He has programmed the high school's grading system and several facets of the attendance system currently in use. He now works seasonally in the IS department, fixing computers, performing server maintenance, and working on various programming projects.

During his senior year, Ian made the decision to apply to ten colleges and universities: five of them public, five of them private. His top choice was always UCLA and when he received his acceptance letter from UCLA, he knew where he was going.

He was accepted as a Marine Biology major but has since found his home in the Linguistics department as a Linguistics and Anthropology major. After getting off to a bit of a confused start (taking a variety of seemingly random courses including Old Norse), he is now on track to completing his major.

During his first year at UCLA, Ian was approached by Jeff and Hanibal and asked to join an as-yet-unnamed a cappella quartet. After settling on a name, The Jumpmen (as they are now called) auditioned for the prestigious Spring Sing competition and were accepted. After performing a medley of songs from the original Super Mario Bros. game to a sold out crowd of over 5000, they found out that they had won an award for their performance. They have most recently recorded several songs for G4TV's Geek Out pilot episode.

Also during his first year at UCLA, he contacted several musicians to form an Irish traditional music group. Now known as Barghest, the quintet proceeded to play in Bruin Plaza, a crowded section of the UCLA campus near to the student union.

In June 2008, Ian graduate from UCLA, earning a B.A. in Linguistics and Anthropology with a minor in Music History. He chose to attend Claremont Graduate University for his graduate studies and hopes to earn a PhD in Musicology. He starts his studies at CGU in September 2008.

Ian first found furry at the age of 15 thanks to the room #furry_realm on the [[EsperNet]] IRC network. After being a [[horse]] for six months, he decided that he was much more a fox than a horse, owing mostly to his inquisitive yet sly nature.

He attended his first (and last) [[Confurence]] in 2003 and entered the [[Filk]] competition, winning the audience choice award. Although it was his first furry convention, he felt at home and content there.

In addition to Confurence, Ian has attend [[Califur]] [[Califur 0|0]], [[Califur 1|1]], [[Califur 2|2]], [[Califur 3|3]], and [[Califur 4|4]], [[Furry Weekend Atlanta]] [[Furry Weekend Atlanta 2009|2009]], [[Further Confusion]] [[Further Confusion 2005|2005]], [[Further Confusion 2006|2006]], [[Further Confusion 2007|2007]], [[Further Confusion 2008|2008]], and [[Further Confusion 2009|2009]], [[Anthrocon]] [[Anthrocon 2008|2008]], [[Rainfurrest]] [[Rainfurrest 2008|2008]], and [[Midwest FurFest]] [[Midwest FurFest 2008|2008]]. He has performed at most of these cons at whichever version of the variety show is available. He has plans to attend this year's [[Califur]], [[Anthrocon]], and [[Rainfurrest]], so be sure to look for him at those cons.

Immediately after he turned 18, he started attending the [[Rick's Cafe' Terrestrienne]] parties at Rick and Tess's house. After Rick and Tess moved, he continued to attend the parties, now moved to the [[Prancing Skiltaire]]. He is now a semi-regular.

Finally, after more than 5 years in the fandom, Ian chose his fur name: Bucker. He also changed his species again to a fuskyote: a fox, husky, and coyote hybrid. It better reflects his diverse nature and real life multi-racial background.

== Fursuit ==

[[Image:RainFurrest 2008 Bucker.JPG|right|thumb|Bucker at [[RainFurrest 2008]]]]At [[Anthrocon 2008]], Ian received his fursuit from [[Moose BMD]]. The suit is a fox, husky, and coyote hybrid. Suiting instantly became his new obsession and he spends much of his free time in suit where appropriate. He immediately began to practice dancing in fursuit and has taken up dancing as his new hobby.

== Current affairs ==

Ian is working on writing a musical. He is also writing some furry songs for his own enjoyment.

[[Image:Ianthefoxbadge.jpg|thumb|right|Ian's badge by Wolf-of-North.]]

'''Bucker Fuskyote''', aka '''MooglePower''', (born April 21, 1986) is an [[anthropomorphic]] fuskyote ([[husky]], [[coyote]], [[red fox]] hybrid) from the Brentwood Hills neighborhood of [[Wikipedia:Brentwood, Los Angeles, California|Brentwood, Los Angeles, CA]]. He plays many instruments, particularly the piano, celtic harp, dulcimer, whistles, bass guitar, guitar, Irish bouzouki, Irish tenor banjo, and mandolin. He can sing and program computers as well. He's also a big fan of rodeos and frequently attends them. He claims that there is no separation from his real-life and online personalities.

Bucker is a [[gay]] furry. He made up the name mooglepower when he was in the fourth grade, although it's something he'd like to eventually change. Although he's not a [[Wikipedia:moogle|moogle]], he does like moogles a lot. He is slowly introducing his new fur name, BuckerFox.

In real life, Ian is attending [[University of California, Davis|UC Davis]], studying Ethnomusicology.

With his many musical talents, Bucker plays in the Irish traditional music group Barghest. He also sings with The Jumpmen, an a cappella quartet specializing in video game music. His other singing involvements include the UCLA Chorale, Chamber Singers, and Paid Ensemble. He is also a member of the rock group [[Illegal Operation]] and the trio [[Dr. Zayus]] with fellow fur [[Rod O'Riley]]. He sings and plays guitar and keyboard with them.

== History ==

Ian was born on April 21, 1986, at the UCLA medical center. He has always lived in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles, CA. He was originally enrolled in two preschools, Kenter Canyon's Co-op and Brentwood Presbyterian. Eventually, his parents removed him from the Co-op and he finished out his preschool years at Brentwood Pres.

It was during this time that he started to work with computers thanks to his computer-literate aunt who taught him how to use and program an old Apple IIc.

He immediately started attending elementary school at Turningpoint, located then at the Leo Baeck temple in Bel Air, in 1991. He started forming a core friend group at Turningpoint sometime in 2nd grade, consisting of a few of the girls in his grade. Unfortunately, they all left after the 4th grade, and Ian was left in a class of seven other kids feeling somewhat alone until he graduated from Turningpoint in 1998. However, it was during his time at Turningpoint that he discovered his love of music and singing thanks to a particularly inspirational music teacher with whom he took piano and theory lessons for a few years.

He then moved onto Crossroads School for middle and high school. Although a small school, Crossroads turned out to be just what he needed at the time. It provided him with stable in-school, friends and allowed him to explore and grow. He discovered his love of languages thanks to an especially wonderful Latin program and also his love of science, thanks to two extremely inspirational teachers in the W.M. Keck Math & Science Foundation on campus. He also explored his love of performing in musical theatre, ending his time in middle school with the huge production of Cabaret.

During high school, he expanded greatly on his interests, doing work with the [[Wikipedia:Dawn Mission|NASA DAWN project]] (a project to send a probe to the asteroids Vesta and Ceres) and UCLA's LAPD (LArge Plasma Device). He also did two projects under the Keck Math & Science Institute Independent Study program, both in computer science.

All of the science programs didn't stop him from pursuing his love of music. He was a member of the 21st Street Singers and also of the acapella quintet The Acafellas (two time winners of the California Junior Classical League's "That's Entertainment" award). He was also in a touring production of the musical "Godspell".

During all of this, Ian also participated heavily in the California Junior Classical League (CJCL), an organization for the furthering of classical civilization and languages (mostly Latin), culminating in his one-year tenure as the state webmaster during the 2003-2004 school year. The annual state-wide convention (known fondly as "Latin Convention" by attendees) was always the highlight of his year. He continues to attend as a chaperone and judge.

In May 2004, Ian graduated from Crossroads, one of three students named National Merit Scholars out of a class of 110. However, his graduation didn't stop him from being involved with the Crossroads community. He has programmed the high school's grading system and several facets of the attendance system currently in use. He now works seasonally in the IS department, fixing computers, performing server maintenance, and working on various programming projects.

During his senior year, Ian made the decision to apply to ten colleges and universities: five of them public, five of them private. His top choice was always UCLA and when he received his acceptance letter from UCLA, he knew where he was going.

He was accepted as a Marine Biology major but has since found his home in the Linguistics department as a Linguistics and Anthropology major. After getting off to a bit of a confused start (taking a variety of seemingly random courses including Old Norse), he is now on track to completing his major.

During his first year at UCLA, Ian was approached by Jeff and Hanibal and asked to join an as-yet-unnamed a cappella quartet. After settling on a name, The Jumpmen (as they are now called) auditioned for the prestigious Spring Sing competition and were accepted. After performing a medley of songs from the original Super Mario Bros. game to a sold out crowd of over 5000, they found out that they had won an award for their performance. They have most recently recorded several songs for G4TV's Geek Out pilot episode.

Also during his first year at UCLA, he contacted several musicians to form an Irish traditional music group. Now known as Barghest, the quintet proceeded to play in Bruin Plaza, a crowded section of the UCLA campus near to the student union.

In June 2008, Ian graduate from UCLA, earning a B.A. in Linguistics and Anthropology with a minor in Music History. He chose to attend Claremont Graduate University for his graduate studies and hopes to earn a PhD in Musicology. He starts his studies at CGU in September 2008.

Midwest FurFest

2010-11-22T00:56:44Z

<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>
{{Template:Midwest FurFest}}
'''Midwest FurFest''' ('''MFF''') is an annual [[furry]] [[convention]] based in [[Wikipedia:Illinois|Illinois]] which has been running as a separate entity since 2000.

Midwest FurFest got its start as the furry track for [[Duckon]], a Chicago-based [[science fiction]] convention. The furry track was started at Duckon 3 in 1994 and was headed up by [[Robert King]]. The track grew larger each year and it was estimated that by Duckon 8 (1999) between one-quarter and one-third of the attendees were there due to interest in the furry track.

The track ran into problems because it was running out of room to expand without costing other parts of Duckon programming space and time. It was decided that the best course of action was to spin off into a new convention.
[[Image:MFFraccoon.png|thumb|left|220px|Midwest FurFest|Midwest FurFest Logo]]
Thus [[Midwest Furry Fandom, Inc.]] was created and Midwest FurFest was born, to take place in November 2000, on
the weekend before [[Wikipedia:Thanksgiving|Thanksgiving]] (a date that became traditional). The parting was amicable, and Duckon lent a good bit of expertise and manpower to help make the first year of Midwest FurFest a success.

Since then, the convention has grown from 388 attendees in 2000 to 2,285 in 2010, making it the [[List of conventions by attendance|3rd largest furry convention]]. It has raised over $92,000 for various wildlife charities.

Midwest FurFest is a production of Midwest Furry Fandom, Inc., which holds ''[http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=78958777 Midwest Furfest]'' and ''[http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=78958792 furfest]'' as [[Wikipedia:Service mark|service marks]].

== History ==
[[Image:MMFattendance.svg|right|thumb|200px|Visitor Statistics]]
=== 2000 ===

For its inaugural year, Midwest FurFest (typically abbreviated as MFF) made its home at the [[wikipedia:Sheraton Hotel|Sheraton Chicago Northwest]], in [[wikipedia:Arlington Heights, Illinois|Arlington Heights]], Illinois. Robert King served as chairman, and many of the popular elements of the furry track at Duckon made appearances: [[Artists Alley]], The [[Furry Variety Show]] (in its traditional Friday-at-midnight timeslot), and the Saturday evening dance. MFF also endeavored to carry on Duckon's fine tradition of a well-stocked con suite, making sure its attendees were well-fed and happy. MFF was proud to welcome [[Robert Carspecken|Robert]] and [[Margaret Carspecken]], [[Rapid T. Rabbit]], and [[Derrick Dasenbrock]] as its initial [[Guests of Honor]]. In its first year, a total of 388 fans turned out to welcome [[furry fandom]]'s newest convention. MFF's attendees showed their generosity by helping to raise $3,522 for the three designated charities that year: [[Wolf Park]], [http://www.votk.org/ Valley of the Kings] [[feline|big cat]] sanctuary, and [http://www.chicagohouse.org/ Chicago House].

=== 2001 ===

In 2001, Robert King was again chairman and MFF was once again at the Sheraton Chicago Northwest. 511 attendees helped to push the boundaries of the meeting space there to close to bursting. 2001 also saw the premiere of [[2|2 the Ranting Gryphon]] in his first convention performance ever. Guests of Honor included [[Mary Hanson-Roberts]], [[Jessica Willard]], and [[Matt McCullar]]. [[Uncle Kage]] served as auctioneer to help the [[charity auction]] raise $6,800 for [http://www.animalsforawareness.org/ Animals for Awareness].

=== 2002 ===

The next year was a big jump for the convention, both in attendance and space as MFF moved a few miles south to the [[wikipedia:Hyatt Regency|Hyatt Regency Woodfield]] in [[wikipedia:Schaumburg, Illinois|Schaumburg]], Illinois. The new location was a huge hit among the 685 attendees, with its close proximity to [[wikipedia:Woodfield Mall|Woodfield Mall]], many restaurants, and other amenities. [[Jim Doolittle]] (aka Aureth) took the reins as convention chairman. Animals for Awareness was once again the chosen charity, and the charity auction and contributions at their table raised a total of $6,088. Programming continued to expand, assisted by Guests of Honor [[Ursula Husted]], [[Ysengrin Blackpaw]], and [[D.C. Simpson]].

=== 2003 ===

Aureth again chaired the convention in 2003, still at the Hyatt Woodfield. [[Thomas K. Dye]], [[M.C.A. Hogarth]], and [[DBruin]] were the Guests of Honor. The charity auction and donations to Animals for Awareness totaled $6,500 that year. 800 furry fans turned out that year, establishing a steady growth curve for the convention. At the end of the convention, Aureth followed the "two years and out" tradition established by Robert King and turned the reins over to [[Dan Hauschild]] (aka Takaza J. Wolf). Mary Jo Pehl of Mystery Science Theater 3000 appeared.

=== 2004 ===
[[File:Mff04-conbook.png|thumb|The cover of the Midwest FurFest 2004 conbook.]]
2004 was another banner year for MFF at the Hyatt Regency Woodfield, with 959 attendees. A new charity, [http://www.furryfriendsfoundation.com/ Furry Friends Foundation], was the recipient of $7,000 raised by donations, the charity auction, and a unique, one-time-only joint show featuring Uncle Kage and 2 the Ranting Gryphon together on stage for almost two hours. The Guests of Honor that year were [[Ursula Vernon]], [[ScribbleFox]], and [[David Gilbert]]. This was the first year that MFF reached outside furry fandom for a Guest of Honor and Mr. Gilbert wrote afterwards that he had a fantastic time.

=== 2005 ===
{{main|Midwest FurFest 2005}}

[[Gene Breshears]], [[Tincrash]], and [[Kenket]] were the Guests of Honor in 2005. The convention continued to grow, breaking the thousand-furry mark for the first time with 1,066 in attendance. Wildlife in Need, a small wildlife rehabilitation organization, was the recipient of $6,800 in donations. The highlight of the Charity Auction was the auctioning off of an evening with 2 and Uncle Kage entertaining the winner and their friends in a private performance; in the end, two groups who were bidding against each other pooled their funds and the performance went for $650. This was Takaza's last year heading the convention, as he passed the chairmanship over to [[Linnaeus]] for 2006. It was also announced that Midwest FurFest would be returning to the Hyatt Regency Woodfield in 2006.

=== 2006 ===
{{main|Midwest FurFest 2006}}

Illustrator Heather "[[Kyoht]]" Luterman , fursuit designer [[Whiteyfawks|Whitefox]] (aka [[Whiteyfawks]]) and artist and designer [[Spunky]] were the Guests of Honor in 2006. The theme was ''Midwest FurFest County Fair''. 1,422 people were in attendance. [[Fursuit parade]] attendance was at 213 participants, a record at the time. The Charity Auction raised $5570 for the [http://www.safehavenwildlife.com/ Safe Haven Wildlife Refuge], not including donations. $13,048.96 in all was raised for the refuge.

=== 2007 ===
{{main|Midwest FurFest 2007}}

Linnaeus chaired the convention again, which took place November 16-18, 2007 at the Hyatt Regency Woodfield in Schaumburg, Illinois. The Guests of Honor included illustrator and artist Erika "[[Chilly]]" Rosengarten, artist and costumer [[Jill0r]], and author [[Will Sanborn]]. The theme was ''Critters on the High Seas''. Attendance was 1,689, and the fursuit parade had 286 participants. The convention raised more than $15,000 for [http://www.flintcreekwildlife.org/ Flint Creek Wildlife Rehabilitation].

=== 2008 ===
{{main|Midwest FurFest 2008}}

Midwest FurFest was held from November 21st to November 23rd in 2008. [[Duncan da Husky]] was the convention chairman, and the convention moved to a new venue: The Westin Chicago North Shore in [[Wikipedia:Wheeling, Illinois|Wheeling, Illinois]]. The theme was ''North to Alaska''.

Total attendance was 1,992, and over $15,000 was raised for their charity, Rainbow Animal Assisted Therapy. The Art Show generated $22,928 in revenue.

=== 2009 ===
{{main|Midwest FurFest 2009}}

2,040 attended the 10th anniversary of MFF, to which all previous guests of honor were invited. No complaints were voiced at the feedback session, but art show sales also suffered from the economy, despite an increase in the number of pieces. An experimental theatrical event - ''Too Much Light Makes The Baby Go Blind'' - gained a positive reception, while $12,971 was raised for the charity ''KARE For Wildlife''.

At closing, it was announced that the convention would move to the Hyatt Regency O'Hare in [[Wikipedia:Rosemont, Illinois|Rosemont, Illinois]] in 2010.

=== 2010===
{{main|Midwest FurFest 2010}}

MFF 2010 was held on 19-21 November at the [http://www.ohare.hyatt.com/ Hyatt Regency O'Hare] in [[Wikipedia:Rosemont, Illinois|Rosemont, Illinois]]. Total attendance was 2,285, a 12% increase from last year.

{{FurFright}}

'''FurFright''' is a Halloween-themed [[anthropomorphic]] [[convention]] in Cromwell, [[Wikipedia:Connecticut|Connecticut]] that was founded in [[FurFright 2003|2003]].

The con offers a full 3 days of attractions and programming for anthropomorphic/furry fans, and works to benefit animal and environmental charities.

==History==
FurFright was started in [[FurFright 2003|2003]] by [[Belic Bear]] and [[K'gra Leopard]] as a one day mini-convention, which took place at a cabin in [[Wikipedia:Middletown, Connecticut|Middletown]], [[Wikipedia:Connecticut|Connecticut]]. Originally 30-50 attendees were anticipated, but more than 160 people registered, and the event turned into an annual convention. FurFright, now in its 8th year, hosts over a thousand attendees from all over the world.

To accommodate its attendees, in 2004 [[FurFright 2004]] was moved to the Sheraton Bradley Hotel, located at [[wikipedia:Bradley International Airport|Bradley International Airport]] in [[Wikipedia:Windsor Locks, Connecticut|Windsor Locks, Connecticut]]. The Days Inn and Comfort Suites had to be added as overflow hotels for [[FurFright 2006]] when the Sheraton Bradley completely sold out with over 515 furs in attendance.

With the constant growth of the convention, and the issues of securing overflow space at neighbouring hotels, FurFright amicably parted ways with the Sheraton Bradley and in 2007 moved to a much larger venue, the [http://www.ctgrandhotel.com/ Holiday Inn Waterbury] in [[Wikipedia:Waterbury, Connecticut|Waterbury]], [[Wikipedia:Connecticut|Connecticut]].

In 2007 FurFright hosted a total of 717 attendees. In 2008 FurFright had 873 attendees, making it the 5th most attended anthropomorphic/furry convention in the world. It retained this position in 2009, with 979 attendees. Due to an outgrowing of the convention programming space, 2009 was the last year in the Holiday Inn Waterbury.

==Current location and timeslot==

In 2010, FurFright was held at The Crowne Plaza in Cromwell, [[Wikipedia:Connecticut|Connecticut]]. Due to scheduling issues, 2010's FurFright was held on Halloween weekend, instead of their traditional third weekend of October. 2011 and future years are expected to resume that timeslot. <ref>http://community.livejournal.com/furfright/347418.html</ref>

In addition to the main hotel, FF 2010 had two additional overflow hotels: the Comfort Inn Cromwell directly across the street from the main hotel, and the Super 8 Cromwell a short distance away. <ref>http://furfright.org/hotel.htm</ref>

The total attendance for 2010 was 1,284<ref name=tweet2010>[http://twitter.com/FurFright/status/29405071913 Totals posted by FurFright Inc. on Twitter]</ref> with 246 participants in the two Fursuit Parades. This makes FurFright the seventh convention to host more than 1000 attendees.

Bucker Fuskyote

2009-09-01T15:58:45Z

{{Cleanup}}
[[Image:Ianthefoxbadge.jpg|thumb|right|Ian's badge by Wolf-of-North.]]

'''Ian the Fox''', aka '''MooglePower''' and '''Bucker Fuskyote''', (born April 21, 1986) is an [[anthropomorphic]] [[red fox]] from the Brentwood Hills neighborhood of [[Wikipedia:Brentwood, Los Angeles, California|Brentwood, Los Angeles, CA]]. He plays many instruments, particularly the piano, celtic harp, dulcimer, whistles, bass guitar, guitar, Irish bouzouki, Irish tenor banjo, and mandolin. He can sing and program computers as well. He's also a big fan of rodeos and frequently attends them. He claims that there is no separation from his real-life and online personalities.

Ian is a [[gay]] furry [[lifestyler]]. He made up the name mooglepower when he was in the fourth grade, although it's something he'd like to eventually change. Although he's not a [[Wikipedia:moogle|moogle]], he does like moogles a lot. He is slowly introducing his new fur name, BuckerFox.

In real life, Ian is attending Claremont Graduate University, studying Musicology.

With his many musical talents, Ian plays in the Irish traditional music group Barghest. He also sings with The Jumpmen, an a cappella quartet specializing in video game music. His other singing involvements include the UCLA Chorale, Chamber Singers, and Paid Ensemble. He is also a member of the rock group [[Illegal Operation]] and the trio [[Dr. Zayus]] with fellow fur [[Rod O'Riley]]. He sings and plays guitar and keyboard with them.

== History ==

Ian was born on April 21, 1986, at the UCLA medical center. He has always lived in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles, CA. He was originally enrolled in two preschools, Kenter Canyon's Co-op and Brentwood Presbyterian. Eventually, his parents removed him from the Co-op and he finished out his preschool years at Brentwood Pres.

It was during this time that he started to work with computers thanks to his computer-literate aunt who taught him how to use and program an old Apple IIc.

He immediately started attending elementary school at Turningpoint, located then at the Leo Baeck temple in Bel Air, in 1991. He started forming a core friend group at Turningpoint sometime in 2nd grade, consisting of a few of the girls in his grade. Unfortunately, they all left after the 4th grade, and Ian was left in a class of seven other kids feeling somewhat alone until he graduated from Turningpoint in 1998. However, it was during his time at Turningpoint that he discovered his love of music and singing thanks to a particularly inspirational music teacher with whom he took piano and theory lessons for a few years.

He then moved onto Crossroads School for middle and high school. Although a small school, Crossroads turned out to be just what he needed at the time. It provided him with stable in-school, friends and allowed him to explore and grow. He discovered his love of languages thanks to an especially wonderful Latin program and also his love of science, thanks to two extremely inspirational teachers in the W.M. Keck Math & Science Foundation on campus. He also explored his love of performing in musical theatre, ending his time in middle school with the huge production of Cabaret.

During high school, he expanded greatly on his interests, doing work with the [[Wikipedia:Dawn Mission|NASA DAWN project]] (a project to send a probe to the asteroids Vesta and Ceres) and UCLA's LAPD (LArge Plasma Device). He also did two projects under the Keck Math & Science Institute Independent Study program, both in computer science.

All of the science programs didn't stop him from pursuing his love of music. He was a member of the 21st Street Singers and also of the acapella quintet The Acafellas (two time winners of the California Junior Classical League's "That's Entertainment" award). He was also in a touring production of the musical "Godspell".

During all of this, Ian also participated heavily in the California Junior Classical League (CJCL), an organization for the furthering of classical civilization and languages (mostly Latin), culminating in his one-year tenure as the state webmaster during the 2003-2004 school year. The annual state-wide convention (known fondly as "Latin Convention" by attendees) was always the highlight of his year. He continues to attend as a chaperone and judge.

In May 2004, Ian graduated from Crossroads, one of three students named National Merit Scholars out of a class of 110. However, his graduation didn't stop him from being involved with the Crossroads community. He has programmed the high school's grading system and several facets of the attendance system currently in use. He now works seasonally in the IS department, fixing computers, performing server maintenance, and working on various programming projects.

During his senior year, Ian made the decision to apply to ten colleges and universities: five of them public, five of them private. His top choice was always UCLA and when he received his acceptance letter from UCLA, he knew where he was going.

He was accepted as a Marine Biology major but has since found his home in the Linguistics department as a Linguistics and Anthropology major. After getting off to a bit of a confused start (taking a variety of seemingly random courses including Old Norse), he is now on track to completing his major.

During his first year at UCLA, Ian was approached by Jeff and Hanibal and asked to join an as-yet-unnamed a cappella quartet. After settling on a name, The Jumpmen (as they are now called) auditioned for the prestigious Spring Sing competition and were accepted. After performing a medley of songs from the original Super Mario Bros. game to a sold out crowd of over 5000, they found out that they had won an award for their performance. They have most recently recorded several songs for G4TV's Geek Out pilot episode.

Also during his first year at UCLA, he contacted several musicians to form an Irish traditional music group. Now known as Barghest, the quintet proceeded to play in Bruin Plaza, a crowded section of the UCLA campus near to the student union.

In June 2008, Ian graduate from UCLA, earning a B.A. in Linguistics and Anthropology with a minor in Music History. He chose to attend Claremont Graduate University for his graduate studies and hopes to earn a PhD in Musicology. He starts his studies at CGU in September 2008.

== Furry History ==

Ian first found furry at the age of 15 thanks to the room #furry_realm on the [[EsperNet]] IRC network. After being a [[horse]] for six months, he decided that he was much more a fox than a horse, owing mostly to his inquisitive yet sly nature.

He attended his first (and last) [[Confurence]] in 2003 and entered the [[Filk]] competition, winning the audience choice award. Although it was his first furry convention, he felt at home and content there.

In addition to Confurence, Ian has attend [[Califur]] [[Califur 0|0]], [[Califur 1|1]], [[Califur 2|2]], [[Califur 3|3]], and [[Califur 4|4]], [[Furry Weekend Atlanta]] [[Furry Weekend Atlanta 2009|2009]], [[Further Confusion]] [[Further Confusion 2005|2005]], [[Further Confusion 2006|2006]], [[Further Confusion 2007|2007]], [[Further Confusion 2008|2008]], and [[Further Confusion 2009|2009]], [[Anthrocon]] [[Anthrocon 2008|2008]], [[Rainfurrest]] [[Rainfurrest 2008|2008]], and [[Midwest FurFest]] [[Midwest FurFest 2008|2008]]. He has performed at most of these cons at whichever version of the variety show is available. He has plans to attend this year's [[Califur]], [[Anthrocon]], and [[Rainfurrest]], so be sure to look for him at those cons.

Immediately after he turned 18, he started attending the [[Rick's Cafe' Terrestrienne]] parties at Rick and Tess's house. After Rick and Tess moved, he continued to attend the parties, now moved to the [[Prancing Skiltaire]]. He is now a semi-regular.

Finally, after more than 5 years in the fandom, Ian chose his fur name: Bucker. He also changed his species again to that of a fuskyote: a fox, husky, and coyote hybrid. It better reflects his diverse nature and real life multi-racial background.

== Fursuit ==

[[Image:RainFurrest 2008 Bucker.JPG|right|thumb|Bucker at [[RainFurrest 2008]]]]At [[Anthrocon 2008]], Ian received his fursuit from [[Moose BMD]]. The suit is a fox, husky, and coyote hybrid. Suiting instantly became his new obsession and he spends much of his free time in suit where appropriate. He immediately began to practice dancing in fursuit and has taken up dancing as his new hobby.

== Current affairs ==

Ian is working on writing a musical. He is also writing some furry songs for his own enjoyment.

MooglePower: Correcting 2009's attendance from 666 to 720, as announced at closing ceremonies.

{{LinkingSupporter}}
{{Califur}}
'''Califur''' is a [[convention]] that succeeded the long-running [[ConFurence]] as the annual furry event of [[Wikipedia:Southern California|Southern California]]. Califur is organized by [[FENEC Adventures]]. Related events include [[Califur Train]], and [[Califur Diego]]. Attendance has grown from 328 persons in the first year to 720 as of 2009.

==Origin of FENEC and Califur==
FENEC ("Furries Enjoying the Natural Environments of California") was conceived by [[Alohawolf|Robert "Alohawolf" Johnson Jr.]], [[Dawn Britt]], and [[Dennis Carr]] with the initial idea of having a furry-themed campout. While riding home from the southern California [[FurBQ]], Dawn had commented to Dennis and his wife, Karmin, about the lack of other camping events such as [[Feral!]] in Southern California. Dennis pointed this out while chatting on the [[FurNet (IRC)|Furnet]] IRC Network, and Robert took charge from there.

As the campout was being planned, additional staffers including [[Glen Wooten]], [[Zee|Zsanene "Zee" Stevens]], [[Trapa|"Trapa"]], [[Drew kitty|"Drew kitty"]] along with ConFurence co-founders [[Mark Merlino]] and [[Rod O'Riley]] were brought on board. With the demise of ConFurence in 2003, Mark and Robert expressed a desire to see a regional convention maintained in Southern California. The decision was made in early autumn of 2003 to plan a traditional hotel-based convention to succeed [[ConFurence 2003]] with [[Califur 0]] the following year.

==History==
====[[Califur 0]]====
[[Image:califur0.gif|right|Califur 0]]
The first Califur was held May 28-30, 2004 at the [http://www.atriumhotel.com/ Atrium Hotel] in [[Wikipedia:Irvine, California|Irvine, California]]. Though original expectations were modest, this inaugural dry run had an unexpected 328 attendees, over five times that of [[Confurence 0]].

Between 2004 and 2005, there were many staffing changes, but significant growth was achieved in both room registrations and attendance.

====[[Califur 1]]====
[[Image:Califur1banner.gif|right|Califur 1]]
The second Califur was held May 20-22, 2005 with an island theme and had 383 attendees at [http://www.hicostamesa.com/ The Holiday Inn] in [[Wikipedia:Costa Mesa, California|Costa Mesa, California]], a 15% gain over the previous year.

After 2005, there were some minor staff changes, with [[TigerEyes|Zsanene "TigerEyes" Stevens]] being selected by the FENEC board to succeed original Califur founder [[AlohaWolf|Robert "Alohawolf" Johnson Jr.]] as the new [[convention chairman|chairperson]].

====[[Califur 2]]====
[[Image:califur2.gif|right|Califur 2]]
The third Califur was held May 5-7, 2006 with a pirate theme and had 434 attendees at the same location as the previous year.

====[[Califur 3]]====
[[Image:califur3.jpg|right|200px|Califur 3]]
The fourth Califur was held May 4-6, 2007 and had 496 registered attendees at the same location as Califur 1 and 2. The theme was "Our Favorite Furry Villains" (Scar, Professor Ratigan, Don Karnage, Jack Salem, Bun Bun, and many more). The Artist Guests of Honor were [[Balaa]] and [[Roz Gibson]], and the Musical Guest of Honor was [[Marc Gunn]] (creator of ''Irish Drinking Songs for Cat Lovers''). The 2006 [[Ursa Major Awards]] was held on the opening night of the convention. [[Dealers Den]] spaces were sold out at least a month before the event, indicating that the con had again outgrown its venue.

====[[Califur 4]]====
[[Image:califur4.jpg|right|200px|Califur 4]]
The fifth Califur was held May 15-18, 2008 at the [http://irvine.hyatt.com/ Hyatt Regency] in Irvine, California, and attracted 587 attendees. The steampunk theme was announced on the last day of Califur 3.

====[[Califur 5]]====
The sixth Califur, entitled CF2.5, was held June 5-7 at the [http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/laxir-irvine-marriott/ Irvine Marriott] in Irvine, California. The theme was 'On Safari', and there were 720 attendees.

====[[Califur 6]]====
Califur 6 is scheduled to be held on June 4-6, 2010, and will again be at the Irvine Marriot hotel.<ref>[http://community.livejournal.com/califur/60093.html "And We're Doing It Again Next Year!!"] - posting by [[Kay Shapero]] on {{lj-comm|califur}}.

==Related events==
====[[Califur Train]]====
A train trip was organized for a few years by co-chair Trapa to help [[Wikipedia:Vancouver|Vancouver]] and [[Wikipedia:Seattle, Washington|Seattle]] area furries make the long journey to Califur in Southern California.

====[[Califur Diego]]====
Califur Diego is "a [[furry artist]] reception" held during the annual [[Comic-Con International]] in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]]. This [[furmeet]] was inspired by the now-defunct [[CritterConDiego]] which also scheduled its events in the evening after the Comic-Con dealer rooms were closed. It was most recently held in 2007 at the [http://www.hortongrand.com/ Horton Grand Hotel]. Califur Diego 2007 featured a new, two-night format and a smaller room. The event was cancelled for 2008 due to a lack of funding.

Califur Diego

2009-07-28T22:15:21Z

MooglePower:

{{Califur}}
'''Califur Diego''' is "a [[furry artist]] reception" held by [[FENEC Adventures]] during the annual [[Comic-Con International]] in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego]]. This [[furmeet]] was inspired by the now-defunct [[CritterConDiego]] which also scheduled its events in the evening after the Comic-Con dealer rooms were closed.

The 2006 Califur Diego was held from 8pm until midnight on Saturday, 22 July 2006. About 65 attendees gathered at the Main Ballroom of the Horton Grand Hotel on 311 Island Avenue in San Diego's historic Gaslamp District. It was discussed that more [[furries|furs]] would have shown up for the festivities if not for a scheduling conflict with the Comic-Con [[masquerade]] where a performance by [[HuggyBear]] had won the competition in 2005.<ref>''[http://forum.califur.com/viewtopic.php?t=77 Holding CalifurDiego at the same time as the SDCC Masquerade]'' - [[CyberBear]] - Califur Forums (July 17, 2006)</ref>

The 2007 Califur Diego was held at the Horton Grand on July 27-28, 2007, starting at 8pm each night.<ref>''[http://forum.califur.com/viewtopic.php?t=102 CalifurDiego 2007]'' - [[Ken Nielsen]], Califur forums (May 17, 2007)</ref> Instead of having a large room for one night, the hosts decided to hold the event in a smaller room for two nights.

Unfortunately, due to budgetary restraints, Califur Diego was unable to be held during Comic-Con 2008. However, it is to be held again in 2009.<ref>''[http://community.livejournal.com/califur/54968.html Califur Diego]'' - [[Albino From About]], {{lj-comm|califur}} (June 8, 2009)</ref>

In 2009, Califur Diego was held at the Hilton Bayfront Hotel, right next to the convention center. The party was held in a suite setting, differing from the ballroom setting of previous years.<ref>''[http://community.livejournal.com/califur/61698.html Califur Diego 2009]'' - [[MooglePower]], {{lj-comm|califur}} (July 22, 2009)</ref>

MooglePower: /* Furry History */

{{Cleanup}}
[[Image:Ianthefoxbadge.jpg|thumb|right|Ian's badge by Wolf-of-North.]]

'''Ian the Fox''', aka '''MooglePower''' and '''Bucker Fox''', (born April 21, 1986) is an [[anthropomorphic]] [[red fox]] from the Brentwood Hills neighborhood of [[Wikipedia:Brentwood, Los Angeles, California|Brentwood, Los Angeles, CA]]. He plays many instruments, particularly the piano, celtic harp, dulcimer, whistles, bass guitar, guitar, Irish bouzouki, Irish tenor banjo, and mandolin. He can sing and program computers as well. He's also a big fan of rodeos and frequently attends them. He claims that there is no separation from his real-life and online personalities.

Ian is a [[gay]] furry [[lifestyler]]. He made up the name mooglepower when he was in the fourth grade, although it's something he'd like to eventually change. Although he's not a [[Wikipedia:moogle|moogle]], he does like moogles a lot. He is slowly introducing his new fur name, BuckerFox.

In real life, Ian is attending Claremont Graduate University, studying Musicology.

With his many musical talents, Ian plays in the Irish traditional music group Barghest. He also sings with The Jumpmen, an a cappella quartet specializing in video game music. His other singing involvements include the UCLA Chorale, Chamber Singers, and Paid Ensemble. He is also a member of the rock group [[Illegal Operation]] and the trio [[Dr. Zayus]] with fellow fur [[Rod O'Riley]]. He sings and plays guitar and keyboard with them.

== History ==

Ian was born on April 21, 1986, at the UCLA medical center. He has always lived in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles, CA. He was originally enrolled in two preschools, Kenter Canyon's Co-op and Brentwood Presbyterian. Eventually, his parents removed him from the Co-op and he finished out his preschool years at Brentwood Pres.

It was during this time that he started to work with computers thanks to his computer-literate aunt who taught him how to use and program an old Apple IIc.

He immediately started attending elementary school at Turningpoint, located then at the Leo Baeck temple in Bel Air, in 1991. He started forming a core friend group at Turningpoint sometime in 2nd grade, consisting of a few of the girls in his grade. Unfortunately, they all left after the 4th grade, and Ian was left in a class of seven other kids feeling somewhat alone until he graduated from Turningpoint in 1998. However, it was during his time at Turningpoint that he discovered his love of music and singing thanks to a particularly inspirational music teacher with whom he took piano and theory lessons for a few years.

He then moved onto Crossroads School for middle and high school. Although a small school, Crossroads turned out to be just what he needed at the time. It provided him with stable in-school, friends and allowed him to explore and grow. He discovered his love of languages thanks to an especially wonderful Latin program and also his love of science, thanks to two extremely inspirational teachers in the W.M. Keck Math & Science Foundation on campus. He also explored his love of performing in musical theatre, ending his time in middle school with the huge production of Cabaret.

During high school, he expanded greatly on his interests, doing work with the [[Wikipedia:Dawn Mission|NASA DAWN project]] (a project to send a probe to the asteroids Vesta and Ceres) and UCLA's LAPD (LArge Plasma Device). He also did two projects under the Keck Math & Science Institute Independent Study program, both in computer science.

All of the science programs didn't stop him from pursuing his love of music. He was a member of the 21st Street Singers and also of the acapella quintet The Acafellas (two time winners of the California Junior Classical League's "That's Entertainment" award). He was also in a touring production of the musical "Godspell".

During all of this, Ian also participated heavily in the California Junior Classical League (CJCL), an organization for the furthering of classical civilization and languages (mostly Latin), culminating in his one-year tenure as the state webmaster during the 2003-2004 school year. The annual state-wide convention (known fondly as "Latin Convention" by attendees) was always the highlight of his year. He continues to attend as a chaperone and judge.

In May 2004, Ian graduated from Crossroads, one of three students named National Merit Scholars out of a class of 110. However, his graduation didn't stop him from being involved with the Crossroads community. He has programmed the high school's grading system and several facets of the attendance system currently in use. He now works seasonally in the IS department, fixing computers, performing server maintenance, and working on various programming projects.

During his senior year, Ian made the decision to apply to ten colleges and universities: five of them public, five of them private. His top choice was always UCLA and when he received his acceptance letter from UCLA, he knew where he was going.

He was accepted as a Marine Biology major but has since found his home in the Linguistics department as a Linguistics and Anthropology major. After getting off to a bit of a confused start (taking a variety of seemingly random courses including Old Norse), he is now on track to completing his major.

During his first year at UCLA, Ian was approached by Jeff and Hanibal and asked to join an as-yet-unnamed a cappella quartet. After settling on a name, The Jumpmen (as they are now called) auditioned for the prestigious Spring Sing competition and were accepted. After performing a medley of songs from the original Super Mario Bros. game to a sold out crowd of over 5000, they found out that they had won an award for their performance. They have most recently recorded several songs for G4TV's Geek Out pilot episode.

Also during his first year at UCLA, he contacted several musicians to form an Irish traditional music group. Now known as Barghest, the quintet proceeded to play in Bruin Plaza, a crowded section of the UCLA campus near to the student union.

In June 2008, Ian graduate from UCLA, earning a B.A. in Linguistics and Anthropology with a minor in Music History. He chose to attend Claremont Graduate University for his graduate studies and hopes to earn a PhD in Musicology. He starts his studies at CGU in September 2008.

== Furry History ==

Ian first found furry at the age of 15 thanks to the room #furry_realm on the [[EsperNet]] IRC network. After being a [[horse]] for six months, he decided that he was much more a fox than a horse, owing mostly to his inquisitive yet sly nature.

He attended his first (and last) [[Confurence]] in 2003 and entered the [[Filk]] competition, winning the audience choice award. Although it was his first furry convention, he felt at home and content there.

In addition to Confurence, Ian has attend [[Califur]] [[Califur 0|0]], [[Califur 1|1]], [[Califur 2|2]], [[Califur 3|3]], and [[Califur 4|4]], [[Furry Weekend Atlanta]] [[Furry Weekend Atlanta 2009|2009]], [[Further Confusion]] [[Further Confusion 2005|2005]], [[Further Confusion 2006|2006]], [[Further Confusion 2007|2007]], [[Further Confusion 2008|2008]], and [[Further Confusion 2009|2009]], [[Anthrocon]] [[Anthrocon 2008|2008]], [[Rainfurrest]] [[Rainfurrest 2008|2008]], and [[Midwest FurFest]] [[Midwest FurFest 2008|2008]]. He has performed at most of these cons at whichever version of the variety show is available. He has plans to attend this year's [[Califur]], [[Anthrocon]], and [[Rainfurrest]], so be sure to look for him at those cons.

Immediately after he turned 18, he started attending the [[Rick's Cafe' Terrestrienne]] parties at Rick and Tess's house. After Rick and Tess moved, he continued to attend the parties, now moved to the [[Prancing Skiltaire]]. He is now a semi-regular.

Finally, after more than 5 years in the fandom, Ian chose his fur name: Bucker. He also changed his species again to that of a fuskyote: a fox, husky, and coyote hybrid. It better reflects his diverse nature and real life multi-racial background.

== Fursuit ==

[[Image:RainFurrest 2008 Bucker.JPG|right|thumb|Bucker at [[RainFurrest 2008]]]]At [[Anthrocon 2008]], Ian received his fursuit from [[Moose BMD]]. The suit is a fox, husky, and coyote hybrid. Suiting instantly became his new obsession and he spends much of his free time in suit where appropriate. He immediately began to practice dancing in fursuit and has taken up dancing as his new hobby.

== Current affairs ==

Ian is working on writing a musical. He is also writing some furry songs for his own enjoyment.

Ian is currently single.

'''Ian the Fox''', aka '''MooglePower''' and '''Bucker Fox''', (born April 21, 1986) is an [[anthropomorphic]] [[red fox]] from the Brentwood Hills neighborhood of [[Wikipedia:Brentwood, Los Angeles, California|Brentwood, Los Angeles, CA]]. He plays many instruments, particularly the piano, celtic harp, dulcimer, whistles, bass guitar, guitar, Irish bouzouki, Irish tenor banjo, and mandolin. He can sing and program computers as well. He's also a big fan of rodeos and frequently attends them. He claims that there is no separation from his real-life and online personalities.

Ian is a [[gay]] furry [[lifestyler]]. He made up the name mooglepower when he was in the fourth grade, although it's something he'd like to eventually change. Although he's not a [[Wikipedia:moogle|moogle]], he does like moogles a lot. He is slowly introducing his new fur name, BuckerFox.

In real life, Ian is attending Claremont Graduate University, studying Musicology.

With his many musical talents, Ian plays in the Irish traditional music group Barghest. He also sings with The Jumpmen, an a cappella quartet specializing in video game music. His other singing involvements include the UCLA Chorale, Chamber Singers, and Paid Ensemble. He is also a member of the rock group [[Illegal Operation]] and the trio [[Dr. Zayus]] with fellow fur [[Rod O'Riley]]. He sings and plays guitar and keyboard with them.

== History ==

Ian was born on April 21, 1986, at the UCLA medical center. He has always lived in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles, CA. He was originally enrolled in two preschools, Kenter Canyon's Co-op and Brentwood Presbyterian. Eventually, his parents removed him from the Co-op and he finished out his preschool years at Brentwood Pres.

It was during this time that he started to work with computers thanks to his computer-literate aunt who taught him how to use and program an old Apple IIc.

He immediately started attending elementary school at Turningpoint, located then at the Leo Baeck temple in Bel Air, in 1991.

Califur

MooglePower: /* Califur 4 */

{{LinkingSupporter}}
{{Califur}}
'''Califur''' is a [[convention]] that succeeded the long-running [[ConFurence]] as the annual furry event of [[Wikipedia:Southern California|Southern California]]. Califur is organized by [[FENEC Adventures]]. Related events include [[Califur Train]], and [[Califur Diego]]. Attendance has grown from 328 persons in the first year to 587 as of 2008.

==Origin of FENEC and Califur==
FENEC ("Furries Enjoying the Natural Environments of California") was conceived by [[Alohawolf|Robert "Alohawolf" Johnson Jr.]], [[Dawn Britt]], and [[Dennis Carr]] with the initial idea of having a furry-themed campout. While riding home from the southern California [[FurBQ]], Dawn had commented to Dennis and his wife, Karmin, about the lack of other camping events such as [[Feral!]] in Southern California. Dennis pointed this out while chatting on the [[FurNet (IRC)|Furnet]] IRC Network, and Robert took charge from there.

As the campout was being planned, additional staffers including [[Glen Wooten]], [[Zee|Zsanene "Zee" Stevens]], [[Trapa|"Trapa"]], [[Drew kitty|"Drew kitty"]] along with ConFurence co-founders [[Mark Merlino]] and [[Rod O'Riley]] were brought on board. With the demise of ConFurence in 2003, Mark and Robert expressed a desire to see a regional convention maintained in Southern California. The decision was made in early autumn of 2003 to plan a traditional hotel-based convention to succeed [[ConFurence 2003]] with [[Califur 0]] the following year.

==History==
====[[Califur 0]]====
[[Image:califur0.gif|right|Califur 0]]
The first Califur was held May 28-30, 2004 at the [http://www.atriumhotel.com/ Atrium Hotel] in [[Wikipedia:Irvine, California|Irvine, California]]. Though original expectations were modest, this inaugural dry run had an unexpected 328 attendees, over five times that of [[Confurence 0]].

Between 2004 and 2005, there were many staffing changes, but significant growth was achieved in both room registrations and attendance.

====[[Califur 1]]====
[[Image:Califur1banner.gif|right|Califur 1]]
The second Califur was held May 20-22, 2005 with an island theme and had 383 attendees at [http://www.hicostamesa.com/ The Holiday Inn] in [[Wikipedia:Costa Mesa, California|Costa Mesa, California]], a 15% gain over the previous year.

After 2005, there were some minor staff changes, with [[TigerEyes|Zsanene "TigerEyes" Stevens]] being selected by the FENEC board to succeed original Califur founder [[AlohaWolf|Robert "Alohawolf" Johnson Jr.]] as the new [[convention chairman|chairperson]].

====[[Califur 2]]====
[[Image:califur2.gif|right|Califur 2]]
The third Califur was held May 5-7, 2006 with a pirate theme and had 434 attendees at the same location as the previous year.

====[[Califur 3]]====
[[Image:califur3.jpg|right|200px|Califur 3]]
The fourth Califur was held May 4-6, 2007 and had 496 registered attendees at the same location as Califur 1 and 2. The theme was "Our Favorite Furry Villains" (Scar, Professor Ratigan, Don Karnage, Jack Salem, Bun Bun, and many more). The Artist Guests of Honor were [[Balaa]] and [[Roz Gibson]], and the Musical Guest of Honor was [[Marc Gunn]] (creator of ''Irish Drinking Songs for Cat Lovers''). The 2006 [[Ursa Major Awards]] was held on the opening night of the convention. [[Dealers Den]] spaces were sold out at least a month before the event, indicating that the con had again outgrown its venue.

====[[Califur 4]]====
[[Image:califur4.jpg|right|200px|Califur 4]]
The fifth Califur was held May 15-18, 2008 at the [http://irvine.hyatt.com/ Hyatt Regency] in Irvine, California, and attracted 587 attendees. The steampunk theme was announced on the last day of Califur 3.

====[[Califur 5]]====

The sixth Califur, CF2.5, is to be held June 5th through 7th at the [http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/laxir-irvine-marriott/ Irvine Marriott] in Irvine, California. The theme is announced to be 'On Safari', and was revealed as part of the convention packet.

==Related events==
====[[Califur Train]]====
A train trip was organized for a few years by co-chair Trapa to help [[Wikipedia:Vancouver|Vancouver]] and [[Wikipedia:Seattle, Washington|Seattle]] area furries make the long journey to Califur in Southern California.

====[[Califur Diego]]====
Califur Diego is "a [[furry artist]] reception" held during the annual [[Comic-Con International]] in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]]. This [[furmeet]] was inspired by the now-defunct [[CritterConDiego]] which also scheduled its events in the evening after the Comic-Con dealer rooms were closed. It was most recently held in 2007 at the [http://www.hortongrand.com/ Horton Grand Hotel]. Califur Diego 2007 featured a new, two-night format and a smaller room. The event was cancelled for 2008 due to a lack of funding.

The fifth Califur was 15-18, 2008 at the [http://irvine.hyatt.com/ Hyatt Regency] in Irvine, California. The steampunk theme was announced on the last day of Califur 3.

====[[Califur 5]]====

The sixth Califur, CF2.5, is to be held June 5th through 7th at the [http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/laxir-irvine-marriott/ Irvine Marriott] in Irvine, California. The theme is announced to be 'On Safari', and was revealed as part of the convention packet.

====[[Califur Train]]====
A train trip was organized for a few years by co-chair Trapa to help [[Wikipedia:Vancouver|Vancouver]] and [[Wikipedia:Seattle, Washington|Seattle]] area furries make the long journey to Califur in Southern California.

====[[Califur Diego]]====
Califur Diego is "a [[furry artist]] reception" held during the annual [[Comic-Con International]] in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]]. This [[furmeet]] was inspired by the now-defunct [[CritterConDiego]] which also scheduled its events in the evening after the Comic-Con dealer rooms were closed. It was most recently held in 2007 at the [http://www.hortongrand.com/ Horton Grand Hotel]. Califur Diego 2007 featured a new, two-night format and a smaller room. The event was cancelled for 2008 due to a lack of funding.

MooglePower: /* Furry History */

{{Cleanup}}
[[Image:Ianthefoxbadge.jpg|thumb|right|Ian's badge by Wolf-of-North.]]

'''Ian the Fox''', aka '''MooglePower''' and '''Bucker Fox''', (born April 21, 1986) is an [[anthropomorphic]] [[red fox]] from the Brentwood Hills neighborhood of [[Wikipedia:Brentwood, Los Angeles, California|Brentwood, Los Angeles, CA]]. He plays many instruments, particularly the piano, celtic harp, dulcimer, whistles, bass guitar, guitar, Irish bouzouki, Irish tenor banjo, and mandolin. He can sing and program computers as well. He's also a big fan of rodeos and frequently attends them. He claims that there is no separation from his real-life and online personalities.

Ian is a [[gay]] furry [[lifestyler]]. He made up the name mooglepower when he was in the fourth grade, although it's something he'd like to eventually change. Although he's not a [[Wikipedia:moogle|moogle]], he does like moogles a lot. He is slowly introducing his new fur name, BuckerFox.

In real life, Ian is attending Claremont Graduate University, studying Musicology.

With his many musical talents, Ian plays in the Irish traditional music group Barghest. He also sings with The Jumpmen, an a cappella quartet specializing in video game music. His other singing involvements include the UCLA Chorale, Chamber Singers, and Paid Ensemble. He is also a member of the rock group [[Illegal Operation]] and the trio [[Dr. Zayus]] with fellow fur [[Rod O'Riley]]. He sings and plays guitar and keyboard with them.

== History ==

Ian was born on April 21, 1986, at the UCLA medical center. He has always lived in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles, CA. He was originally enrolled in two preschools, Kenter Canyon's Co-op and Brentwood Presbyterian. Eventually, his parents removed him from the Co-op and he finished out his preschool years at Brentwood Pres.

It was during this time that he started to work with computers thanks to his computer-literate aunt who taught him how to use and program an old Apple IIc.

He immediately started attending elementary school at Turningpoint, located then at the Leo Baeck temple in Bel Air, in 1991. He started forming a core friend group at Turningpoint sometime in 2nd grade, consisting of a few of the girls in his grade. Unfortunately, they all left after the 4th grade, and Ian was left in a class of seven other kids feeling somewhat alone until he graduated from Turningpoint in 1998. However, it was during his time at Turningpoint that he discovered his love of music and singing thanks to a particularly inspirational music teacher with whom he took piano and theory lessons for a few years.

He then moved onto Crossroads School for middle and high school. Although a small school, Crossroads turned out to be just what he needed at the time. It provided him with stable in-school, friends and allowed him to explore and grow. He discovered his love of languages thanks to an especially wonderful Latin program and also his love of science, thanks to two extremely inspirational teachers in the W.M. Keck Math & Science Foundation on campus. He also explored his love of performing in musical theatre, ending his time in middle school with the huge production of Cabaret.

During high school, he expanded greatly on his interests, doing work with the [[Wikipedia:Dawn Mission|NASA DAWN project]] (a project to send a probe to the asteroids Vesta and Ceres) and UCLA's LAPD (LArge Plasma Device). He also did two projects under the Keck Math & Science Institute Independent Study program, both in computer science.

All of the science programs didn't stop him from pursuing his love of music. He was a member of the 21st Street Singers and also of the acapella quintet The Acafellas (two time winners of the California Junior Classical League's "That's Entertainment" award). He was also in a touring production of the musical "Godspell".

During all of this, Ian also participated heavily in the California Junior Classical League (CJCL), an organization for the furthering of classical civilization and languages (mostly Latin), culminating in his one-year tenure as the state webmaster during the 2003-2004 school year. The annual state-wide convention (known fondly as "Latin Convention" by attendees) was always the highlight of his year. He continues to attend as a chaperone and judge.

In May 2004, Ian graduated from Crossroads, one of three students named National Merit Scholars out of a class of 110. However, his graduation didn't stop him from being involved with the Crossroads community. He has programmed the high school's grading system and several facets of the attendance system currently in use. He now works seasonally in the IS department, fixing computers, performing server maintenance, and working on various programming projects.

During his senior year, Ian made the decision to apply to ten colleges and universities: five of them public, five of them private. His top choice was always UCLA and when he received his acceptance letter from UCLA, he knew where he was going.

He was accepted as a Marine Biology major but has since found his home in the Linguistics department as a Linguistics and Anthropology major. After getting off to a bit of a confused start (taking a variety of seemingly random courses including Old Norse), he is now on track to completing his major.

During his first year at UCLA, Ian was approached by Jeff and Hanibal and asked to join an as-yet-unnamed a cappella quartet. After settling on a name, The Jumpmen (as they are now called) auditioned for the prestigious Spring Sing competition and were accepted. After performing a medley of songs from the original Super Mario Bros. game to a sold out crowd of over 5000, they found out that they had won an award for their performance. They have most recently recorded several songs for G4TV's Geek Out pilot episode.

Also during his first year at UCLA, he contacted several musicians to form an Irish traditional music group. Now known as Barghest, the quintet proceeded to play in Bruin Plaza, a crowded section of the UCLA campus near to the student union.

In June 2008, Ian graduate from UCLA, earning a B.A. in Linguistics and Anthropology with a minor in Music History. He chose to attend Claremont Graduate University for his graduate studies and hopes to earn a PhD in Musicology. He starts his studies at CGU in September 2008.

== Furry History ==

Ian first found furry at the age of 15 thanks to the room #furry_realm on the [[EsperNet]] IRC network. After being a [[horse]] for six months, he decided that he was much more a fox than a horse, owing mostly to his inquisitive yet sly nature.

He attended his first (and last) [[Confurence]] in 2003 and entered the [[Filk]] competition, winning the audience choice award. Although it was his first furry convention, he felt at home and content there.

In addition to Confurence, Ian has attend [[Califur]] [[Califur 0|0]], [[Califur 1|1]], [[Califur 2|2]], [[Califur 3|3]], and [[Califur 4|4]], [[Further Confusion]] [[Further Confusion 2005|2005]], [[Further Confusion 2006|2006]], [[Further Confusion 2007|2007]], [[Further Confusion 2008|2008]], and [[Further Confusion 2009|2009]], [[Anthrocon]] [[Anthrocon 2008|2008]], [[Rainfurrest]] [[Rainfurrest 2008|2008]], and [[Midwest FurFest]] [[Midwest FurFest 2008|2008]]. He has performed at most of these cons at whichever version of the variety show is available. He has plans to attend this year's [[Furry Weekend Atlanta]], [[Califur]], [[Anthrocon]], and [[Rainfurrest]], so be sure to look for him at those cons.

Immediately after he turned 18, he started attending the [[Rick's Cafe' Terrestrienne]] parties at Rick and Tess's house. After Rick and Tess moved, he continued to attend the parties, now moved to the [[Prancing Skiltaire]]. He is now a semi-regular.

Finally, after more than 5 years in the fandom, Ian chose his fur name: Bucker.

== Fursuit ==

[[Image:RainFurrest 2008 Bucker.JPG|right|thumb|Bucker at [[RainFurrest 2008]]]]At [[Anthrocon 2008]], Ian received his fursuit from [[Moose BMD]]. The suit is a fox, husky, and coyote hybrid. Suiting instantly became his new obsession and he spends much of his free time in suit where appropriate. He immediately began to practice dancing in fursuit and has taken up dancing as his new hobby.

== Current affairs ==

Ian is working on writing a musical. He is also writing some furry songs for his own enjoyment.

Ian is currently single.

[[Image:Ianthefoxbadge.jpg|thumb|right|Ian's badge by Wolf-of-North.]]

'''Ian the Fox''', aka '''MooglePower''' and '''Bucker Fox''', (born April 21, 1986) is an [[anthropomorphic]] [[red fox]] from the Brentwood Hills neighborhood of [[Wikipedia:Brentwood, Los Angeles, California|Brentwood, Los Angeles, CA]]. He plays many instruments, particularly the piano, celtic harp, dulcimer, whistles, bass guitar, guitar, Irish bouzouki, Irish tenor banjo, and mandolin. He can sing and program computers as well. He's also a big fan of rodeos and frequently attends them. He claims that there is no separation from his real-life and online personalities.

Ian is a [[gay]] furry [[lifestyler]]. He made up the name mooglepower when he was in the fourth grade, although it's something he'd like to eventually change. Although he's not a [[Wikipedia:moogle|moogle]], he does like moogles a lot. He is slowly introducing his new fur name, BuckerFox.

In real life, Ian is attending Claremont Graduate University, studying Musicology.

With his many musical talents, Ian plays in the Irish traditional music group Barghest. He also sings with The Jumpmen, an a cappella quartet specializing in video game music. His other singing involvements include the UCLA Chorale, Chamber Singers, and Paid Ensemble. He is also a member of the rock group [[Illegal Operation]] and the trio [[Dr. Zayus]] with fellow fur [[Rod O'Riley]]. He sings and plays guitar and keyboard with them.

== History ==

Ian was born on April 21, 1986, at the UCLA medical center. He has always lived in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles, CA. He was originally enrolled in two preschools, Kenter Canyon's Co-op and Brentwood Presbyterian. Eventually, his parents removed him from the Co-op and he finished out his preschool years at Brentwood Pres.

It was during this time that he started to work with computers thanks to his computer-literate aunt who taught him how to use and program an old Apple IIc.

He immediately started attending elementary school at Turningpoint, located then at the Leo Baeck temple in Bel Air, in 1991. He started forming a core friend group at Turningpoint sometime in 2nd grade, consisting of a few of the girls in his grade. Unfortunately, they all left after the 4th grade, and Ian was left in a class of seven other kids feeling somewhat alone until he graduated from Turningpoint in 1998. However, it was during his time at Turningpoint that he discovered his love of music and singing thanks to a particularly inspirational music teacher with whom he took piano and theory lessons for a few years.

He then moved onto Crossroads School for middle and high school. Although a small school, Crossroads turned out to be just what he needed at the time. It provided him with stable in-school, friends and allowed him to explore and grow. He discovered his love of languages thanks to an especially wonderful Latin program and also his love of science, thanks to two extremely inspirational teachers in the W.M. Keck Math & Science Foundation on campus. He also explored his love of performing in musical theatre, ending his time in middle school with the huge production of Cabaret.

During high school, he expanded greatly on his interests, doing work with the [[Wikipedia:Dawn Mission|NASA DAWN project]] (a project to send a probe to the asteroids Vesta and Ceres) and UCLA's LAPD (LArge Plasma Device). He also did two projects under the Keck Math & Science Institute Independent Study program, both in computer science.

All of the science programs didn't stop him from pursuing his love of music. He was a member of the 21st Street Singers and also of the acapella quintet The Acafellas (two time winners of the California Junior Classical League's "That's Entertainment" award). He was also in a touring production of the musical "Godspell".

During all of this, Ian also participated heavily in the California Junior Classical League (CJCL), an organization for the furthering of classical civilization and languages (mostly Latin), culminating in his one-year tenure as the state webmaster during the 2003-2004 school year. The annual state-wide convention (known fondly as "Latin Convention" by attendees) was always the highlight of his year. He continues to attend as a chaperone and judge.

In May 2004, Ian graduated from Crossroads, one of three students named National Merit Scholars out of a class of 110. However, his graduation didn't stop him from being involved with the Crossroads community. He has programmed the high school's grading system and several facets of the attendance system currently in use. He now works seasonally in the IS department, fixing computers, performing server maintenance, and working on various programming projects.

During his senior year, Ian made the decision to apply to ten colleges and universities: five of them public, five of them private. His top choice was always UCLA and when he received his acceptance letter from UCLA, he knew where he was going.

He was accepted as a Marine Biology major but has since found his home in the Linguistics department as a Linguistics and Anthropology major. After getting off to a bit of a confused start (taking a variety of seemingly random courses including Old Norse), he is now on track to completing his major.

During his first year at UCLA, Ian was approached by Jeff and Hanibal and asked to join an as-yet-unnamed a cappella quartet. After settling on a name, The Jumpmen (as they are now called) auditioned for the prestigious Spring Sing competition and were accepted. After performing a medley of songs from the original Super Mario Bros. game to a sold out crowd of over 5000, they found out that they had won an award for their performance. They have most recently recorded several songs for G4TV's Geek Out pilot episode.

Also during his first year at UCLA, he contacted several musicians to form an Irish traditional music group. Now known as Barghest, the quintet proceeded to play in Bruin Plaza, a crowded section of the UCLA campus near to the student union.

In June 2008, Ian graduate from UCLA, earning a B.A. in Linguistics and Anthropology with a minor in Music History. He chose to attend Claremont Graduate University for his graduate studies and hopes to earn a PhD in Musicology. He starts his studies at CGU in September 2008.

== Furry History ==

Ian first found furry at the age of 15 thanks to the room #furry_realm on the [[EsperNet]] IRC network. After being a [[horse]] for six months, he decided that he was much more a fox than a horse, owing mostly to his inquisitive yet sly nature.

He attended his first (and last) [[Confurence]] in 2003 and entered the [[Filk]] competition, winning the audience choice award. Although it was his first furry convention, he felt at home and content there.

In addition to Confurence, Ian has attend [[Califur]] [[Califur 0|0]], [[Califur 1|1]], [[Califur 2|2]], [[Califur 3|3]], and [[Califur 4|4]], [[Further Confusion]] [[Further Confusion 2005|2005]], [[Further Confusion 2006|2006]], [[Further Confusion 2007|2007]], and [[Further Confusion 2008|2008]], [[Anthrocon]] [[Anthrocon 2008|2008]], [[Rainfurrest]] [[Rainfurrest 2008|2008]], and [[Midwest FurFest]] [[Midwest FurFest 2008|2008]]. He has performed at most of these cons at whichever version of the variety show is available. He has plans to attend next year's [[Further Confusion]], [[Furry Weekend Atlanta]], [[Califur]], [[Anthrocon]], and [[Rainfurrest]], so be sure to look for him at those cons.

Immediately after he turned 18, he started attending the [[Rick's Cafe' Terrestrienne]] parties at Rick and Tess's house. After Rick and Tess moved, he continued to attend the parties, now moved to the [[Prancing Skiltaire]]. He is now a semi-regular.

Finally, after more than 5 years in the fandom, Ian chose his fur name: Bucker.

== Fursuit ==

[[Image:RainFurrest 2008 Bucker.JPG|right|thumb|Bucker at [[RainFurrest 2008]]]]At [[Anthrocon 2008]], Ian received his fursuit from [[Moose BMD]]. The suit is a fox, husky, and coyote hybrid. Suiting instantly became his new obsession and he spends much of his free time in suit where appropriate. He immediately began to practice dancing in fursuit and has taken up dancing as his new hobby.

== Current affairs ==

Ian is working on writing a musical. He is also writing some furry songs for his own enjoyment.

Ian is currently single.

[[Image:Ianthefoxbadge.jpg|thumb|right|Ian's badge by Wolf-of-North.]]

'''Ian the Fox''', aka '''MooglePower''' and '''Bucker Fox''', (born April 21, 1986) is an [[anthropomorphic]] [[red fox]] from the Brentwood Hills neighborhood of [[Wikipedia:Brentwood, Los Angeles, California|Brentwood, Los Angeles, CA]]. He plays many instruments, particularly the piano, celtic harp, dulcimer, whistles, bass guitar, guitar, Irish bouzouki, Irish tenor banjo, and mandolin. He can sing and program computers as well. He's also a big fan of rodeos and frequently attends them. He claims that there is no separation from his real-life and online personalities.

Ian is a [[gay]] furry [[lifestyler]]. He made up the name mooglepower when he was in the fourth grade, although it's something he'd like to eventually change. Although he's not a [[Wikipedia:moogle|moogle]], he does like moogles a lot. He is slowly introducing his new fur name, BuckerFox.

In real life, Ian is attending Claremont Graduate University, studying Musicology.

With his many musical talents, Ian plays in the Irish traditional music group Barghest. He also sings with The Jumpmen, an a cappella quartet specializing in video game music. His other singing involvements include the UCLA Chorale, Chamber Singers, and Paid Ensemble. He is also a member of the rock group [[Illegal Operation]] and the trio [[Dr. Zayus]] with fellow fur [[Rod O'Riley]]. He sings and plays guitar and keyboard with them.

== History ==

Ian was born on April 21, 1986, at the UCLA medical center. He has always lived in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles, CA. He was originally enrolled in two preschools, Kenter Canyon's Co-op and Brentwood Presbyterian. Eventually, his parents removed him from the Co-op and he finished out his preschool years at Brentwood Pres.

It was during this time that he started to work with computers thanks to his computer-literate aunt who taught him how to use and program an old Apple IIc.

He immediately started attending elementary school at Turningpoint, located then at the Leo Baeck temple in Bel Air, in 1991. He started forming a core friend group at Turningpoint sometime in 2nd grade, consisting of a few of the girls in his grade. Unfortunately, they all left after the 4th grade, and Ian was left in a class of seven other kids feeling somewhat alone until he graduated from Turningpoint in 1998. However, it was during his time at Turningpoint that he discovered his love of music and singing thanks to a particularly inspirational music teacher with whom he took piano and theory lessons for a few years.

He then moved onto Crossroads School for middle and high school. Although a small school, Crossroads turned out to be just what he needed at the time. It provided him with stable in-school, friends and allowed him to explore and grow. He discovered his love of languages thanks to an especially wonderful Latin program and also his love of science, thanks to two extremely inspirational teachers in the W.M. Keck Math & Science Foundation on campus. He also explored his love of performing in musical theatre, ending his time in middle school with the huge production of Cabaret.

During high school, he expanded greatly on his interests, doing work with the [[Wikipedia:Dawn Mission|NASA DAWN project]] (a project to send a probe to the asteroids Vesta and Ceres) and UCLA's LAPD (LArge Plasma Device). He also did two projects under the Keck Math & Science Institute Independent Study program, both in computer science.

All of the science programs didn't stop him from pursuing his love of music. He was a member of the 21st Street Singers and also of the acapella quintet The Acafellas (two time winners of the California Junior Classical League's "That's Entertainment" award). He was also in a touring production of the musical "Godspell".

During all of this, Ian also participated heavily in the California Junior Classical League (CJCL), an organization for the furthering of classical civilization and languages (mostly Latin), culminating in his one-year tenure as the state webmaster during the 2003-2004 school year. The annual state-wide convention (known fondly as "Latin Convention" by attendees) was always the highlight of his year. He continues to attend as a chaperone and judge.

In May 2004, Ian graduated from Crossroads, one of three students named National Merit Scholars out of a class of 110. However, his graduation didn't stop him from being involved with the Crossroads community. He has programmed the high school's grading system and several facets of the attendance system currently in use. He now works seasonally in the IS department, fixing computers, performing server maintenance, and working on various programming projects.

During his senior year, Ian made the decision to apply to ten colleges and universities: five of them public, five of them private. His top choice was always UCLA and when he received his acceptance letter from UCLA, he knew where he was going.

He was accepted as a Marine Biology major but has since found his home in the Linguistics department as a Linguistics and Anthropology major. After getting off to a bit of a confused start (taking a variety of seemingly random courses including Old Norse), he is now on track to completing his major.

During his first year at UCLA, Ian was approached by Jeff and Hanibal and asked to join an as-yet-unnamed a cappella quartet. After settling on a name, The Jumpmen (as they are now called) auditioned for the prestigious Spring Sing competition and were accepted. After performing a medley of songs from the original Super Mario Bros. game to a sold out crowd of over 5000, they found out that they had won an award for their performance. They have most recently recorded several songs for G4TV's Geek Out pilot episode.

Also during his first year at UCLA, he contacted several musicians to form an Irish traditional music group. Now known as Barghest, the quintet proceeded to play in Bruin Plaza, a crowded section of the UCLA campus near to the student union.

In June 2008, Ian graduate from UCLA, earning a B.A. in Linguistics and Anthropology with a minor in Music History. He chose to attend Claremont Graduate University for his graduate studies and hopes to earn a PhD in Musicology. He starts his studies at CGU in September 2008.

== Furry History ==

Ian first found furry at the age of 15 thanks to the room #furry_realm on the [[EsperNet]] IRC network. After being a [[horse]] for six months, he decided that he was much more a fox than a horse, owing mostly to his inquisitive yet sly nature.

He attended his first (and last) [[Confurence]] in 2003 and entered the [[Filk]] competition, winning the audience choice award. Although it was his first furry convention, he felt at home and content there.

In addition to Confurence, Ian has attend [[Califur]] [[Califur 0|0]], [[Califur 1|1]], [[Califur 2|2]], [[Califur 3|3]], and [[Califur 4|4]], [[Further Confusion]] [[Further Confusion 2005|2005]], [[Further Confusion 2006|2006]], [[Further Confusion 2007|2007]], and [[Further Confusion 2008|2008]], [[Anthrocon]] [[Anthrocon 2008|2008]], and [[Rainfurrest]] [[Rainfurrest 2008|2008]]. He has performed at most of these cons at whichever version of the variety show is available. He will be attending [[Midwest FurFest]] in November and has plans to attend next year's [[Further Confusion]], [[Furry Weekend Atlanta]], [[Califur]], [[Anthrocon]], and [[Rainfurrest]], so be sure to look for him at those cons.

Immediately after he turned 18, he started attending the [[Rick's Cafe' Terrestrienne]] parties at Rick and Tess's house. After Rick and Tess moved, he continued to attend the parties, now moved to the [[Prancing Skiltaire]]. He is now a semi-regular.

Finally, after more than 5 years in the fandom, Ian chose his fur name: Bucker Fox.

== Fursuit ==

[[Image:RainFurrest 2008 Bucker.JPG|right|thumb|Bucker at [[RainFurrest 2008]]]]At [[Anthrocon 2008]], Ian received his fursuit from [[Moose BMD]]. The suit is a fox, husky, and coyote hybrid. Suiting instantly became his new obsession and he spends much of his free time in suit where appropriate. He immediately began to practice dancing in fursuit and has taken up dancing as his new hobby.

== Current affairs ==

Ian is working on writing a musical. He is also writing some furry songs for his own enjoyment.

Ian is currently single.

After settling on a name, The Jumpmen (as they are now called) auditioned for the prestigious Spring Sing competition and were accepted. After performing a medley of songs from the original Super Mario Bros. game to a sold out crowd of over 5000, they found out that they had won an award for their performance. They have most recently recorded several songs for G4TV's Geek Out pilot episode.

Also during his first year at UCLA, he contacted several musicians to form an Irish traditional music group. Now known as Barghest, the quintet proceeded to play in Bruin Plaza, a crowded section of the UCLA campus near to the student union.

In June 2008, Ian graduate from UCLA, earning a B.A. in Linguistics and Anthropology with a minor in Music History. He chose to attend Claremont Graduate University for his graduate studies and hopes to earn a PhD in Musicology. He starts his studies at CGU in September 2008.

== Furry History ==

Ian first found furry at the age of 15 thanks to the room #furry_realm on the [[EsperNet]] IRC network. After being a [[horse]] for six months, he decided that he was much more a fox than a horse, owing mostly to his inquisitive yet sly nature.

He attended his first (and last) [[Confurence]] in 2003 and entered the [[Filk]] competition, winning the audience choice award. Although it was his first furry convention, he felt at home and content there.

In addition to Confurence, Ian has attend [[Califur]] 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4, [[Further Confusion]] 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008, [[Anthrocon]] 2008, and [[Rainfurrest]] 2008. He has performed at most of these cons at whichever version of the variety show is available. He will be attending [[Midwest FurFest]] in November and has plans to attend next year's [[Further Confusion]], [[Furry Weekend Atlanta]], [[Califur]], [[Anthrocon]], and [[Rainfurrest]], so be sure to look for him at those cons.

Immediately after he turned 18, he started attending the [[Rick's Cafe' Terrestrienne]] parties at Rick and Tess's house. After Rick and Tess moved, he continued to attend the parties, now moved to the [[Prancing Skiltaire]]. He is now a semi-regular.

Finally, after more than 5 years in the fandom, Ian chose his fur name: Bucker Fox.

== Fursuit ==

[[Image:RainFurrest 2008 Bucker.JPG|right|thumb|Bucker at [[RainFurrest 2008]]]]At [[Anthrocon 2008]], Ian received his fursuit from [[Moose BMD]]. The suit is a fox, husky, and coyote hybrid. Suiting instantly became his new obsession and he spends much of his free time in suit where appropriate. He immediately began to practice dancing in fursuit and has taken up dancing as his new hobby.

== Current affairs ==

Ian is working on writing a musical. He is also writing some furry songs for his own enjoyment.

Ian is currently single.
