We propose novel bosonic Technicolor models augmented by an SU (2) R gauge group and scalar doublet. Dynamical breaking of SU (2) R induced by technifermion condensation triggers SU (2) L breaking via a portal coupling. The scale of the new strong interactions is as high as that of composite Higgs models, and the vacuum stability challenge confronting ordinary bosonic Technicolor models is avoided. Thermal or asymmetric dark matter, whose stability is ensured by a U (1) TB technibaryon symmetry, can be realized.
