Spotlight on .... Mimi's Choice

Mimi’s Choice is an extremely well known fashion outlet in Second Life and Mimi Juneau herself is considered the Doyenne of SL fashion.

Mimi decided very early on in her SL that she wanted to be a reseller of some of the best brands that SL has to offer and I think that most of you would agree with me that she has achieved exactly that.

Mimi’s Choice has been on the grid for 6 years and is still going strong and in Second Life this is no mean feat, bearing in mind the fluidity of the commercial side of things and in fact of the community as a whole.

Mimi’s goal, in fact her passion, is to make sure that the avatars of SL, both male and female alike look gorgeous.

IGFL Broncos Stadium: More Than Just Football Games

IGFL BRONCOS

(OCTOBER 25, 2012)  Mysa Masatada, freelance writer
Whoever said the fight begins on the field have never met the Broncos.  As members of the Independent Global Football League (IGFL), football is more than just a game; it is legacy which began as members of the Second Life National Football League (SLNFL) where the Broncos obtained glory as the 2010 Super Bowl Champions.  That winning spirit continued in 2011 when the Broncos became IGFL AFC Champions.

Step onto Champions Realm, home of Broncos Stadium, at any time, and you will find players hard at work in the gym. With high motivation and a strong workout ethic, week after week the Broncos players continually max out their workout requirement several times above league expectations.
