Doomsday approaches or does it? - Cecilia Rose Reporting ....

What do avies think about the Mayan's prediction of Doomsday? 

Before answering this initial question, it is necessary to focus on some fundamental issues, such as: what the Mayan calendar really is? How does it work and  what is the contribution of modern research on the Prophecy?

1) What is the Mayan Calendar?

The Mayan calendar is a system of calendars used in pre-Columbian Mesoamerica, and in many modern communities in highland Guatemala and in Veracruz, Oaxaca and Chiapas, Mexico.

The essentials of the Maya calendar are based upon a system which had been in common use throughout the region, dating back to at least the 5th century BCE. It shares many aspects with calendars employed by other earlier Mesoamerican civilizations, such as the Zapotec and Olmec, and contemporary or later ones such as the Mixtec and Aztec calendars.

Although the Mesoamerican calendar did not originate with the Maya, their subsequent extensions and refinements of it were the most sophisticated. Along with those of the Aztecs, the Maya calendars are the best-documented and most completely understood.

By the Maya mythological tradition, as documented in Colonial Yucatec accounts and reconstructed from Late Classic and Postclassic inscriptions, the deity Itzamna is frequently credited with bringing the knowledge of the calendar system to the ancestral Maya, along with writing in general and other foundational aspects of Maya culture.

Fall Activities in Second Life - Cecilia Rose Reporting...

This article was to be dedicated to fall activities, but I'll confess that it looks more like all seasons in one. OK now let's see what fields we will try to cover: Sales, Hunts and Events.  These three happen all year around, but we'll focus on the most recent ones.

Sales: Without exaggeration, this is the favorite pastime of the feminine of the species. Most of the shops in Second Life offer weekly sales rather than monthly ones. So, I am going to give you a useful list of the very best of the branded shops and examples of their weekly sales.

Of course, the sales don't stop at what you see posted here, there is plenty more to find and buy without breaking the bank.

Keeping Warm During the Winter Freeze - Coco Lierfatte Reporting...

It's that time of year when the air gets chilly, and the snow starts to fall. Tinsel is going up, mistletoe is hung, families start making plans on how to spend the holidays.

Whether your going skiing or just spending the holidays at home, you still need to worry about one thing. That is what to wear during the chilly months of the year.   

The first chill of the holiday seasons, are the best way to know that your going to need to bundle up.

 

Bundling up is essential. Plush scarves, comfy but fashionable boots, warm and soft mittens, are just a few of the many things you'll need. My favorite thing about the fall/winter season is getting to wear a soft and fluffy sweater.

 

Where to shop during the fall/winter season is a vital decision too. You can shop comfy or you can shop stylish. What's most important is that your comfortable in, because comfort is the most fashionable thing for anyone.

Prêt-à-Porter SL Style…. Lacy Muircastle reporting

Way back in 2010 I wrote an article on Prêt-à-Porter SL Style where I mentioned that ‘style is a deeply personal expression of who you are and every time you dress, you are asserting a part of yourself. Image is the foundation of visual credibility, personal presence and non-verbal communications.’

I have decided to resurrect this concept and I will be making regular postings about outfits, accessories, hair, shoes, shapes and skins that catch my eye in the wonderful world of fashion in Second Life.

SL Newser: Judge Issues Summary Judgement in Amaretto vs Ozimals Suit- Bixyl Shuftan Reporting...

 

 

 One wouldn't expect a bunny and a horse to be enemies. But it was almost two years ago in which the companies that make them in Second Life ended up in a fight that reached real life court. For well over a year, nothing was heard about the case between Ozimals and Amaretto. Finally earlier this month, the judge over the case made a summary judgement. What did he rule, and who's claiming victory in "Bunneh vs Horsie?"

SLE Promotes Healthy Eating Despite Lanai's Love for Twinkies

Lanai's recent trip to the supermarket

With the public announcement of the Hostess company, best known for pumping out those cream filled Twinkies for the last 85 years, is liquidating and ending it’s distribution of those golden calorie engorged treats. People have been frantic.

Wonder Bread is being threatened too. This creates a big problem for all the moms that pack peanut butter & jelly, and ham sandwiches. Now they are being forced to find a bread less vitamin fortified and enriched!

Lanai did not take the news well at all. In fact, she remains shocked and convinced its the end of our free world as we know it. 


 In the midst of this terrible breaking news, Lanai felt the need to inform the SL Enquirer media group about the tragic end to Twinkie as she stockpiled for an emergency.

It stirred up emotions from the healthy eaters of Second Life who accused Lanai of being a secret advocate for the promotion of diabetes and unhealthy eating habits.

Spotlight on Inarra Saarinen and Ballet Pixelle- Shon Charisma Reporting

One of my favorite things to do on the grid is dance. Early in my three years on the grid, dance meant going to the club and clicking the animations in my inventory. Over the years, dance became a serious business, practice. It became precision, it became listening to the music closely so that I could make movements with the music that told a story. My love of dance, of music, of telling stories with dance showed its face a while back when I interviewed some great women in dance for SLE. When I was asked to do the spotlight feature on Ballet Pixelle® and talk to BP's artistic director and choreographer Inarra Saarinen, I was more than thrilled to jump in and learn more about this dynamic, unique dance company.
