  It is such a different and rare topic. Isn't it? Let's get into role-playing (RP for short).
Role-play refers to acting out in a particular character, using the words and customs of that character, become a mimic. Interesting eh? Keep in mind that actions which are OOC (Out of character) MUST BE noted in some way, or not used in this mode of communication this the basic rule.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Independent Ballet Present their New Ballet: ACCEPT- February 23, 2013 @ 2:30pm SLT at Branwen Arts Theatre




In ACCEPT, four young women struggle with their sense of self and their place in the world around them.  They are united by one thing - their love of dance.  ACCEPT follows the journey of these young ladies as they are each uniquely challenged, and as they come together. They learn lessons of tolerance, compassion, and empathy as they come of age as dancers, and as women.

Based on an original concept by IBC's Deyna Broek, ACCEPT is set in our times, features a mix of ballet and modern dance styles, and IBC's signature blending of solo and group-synced performance.

Check out the premiere on February 23 @ 2:30pm SLT at Branwen Arts Theatre

Behind the Fennux: Interview w/the Creators -Definate Balfour Reporting...




We can pick from so many breedables to play within world, from kitties to dogs even plants, but has anyone wondered where they come from? Yes we all know the whole girl and boy makes baby part, but what about the creators, the grand masterminds that cause us to fall in love with adorable and awesome creatures to go forth and multiple? With this question plaguing me I was able to find the answer, for at least one cute and adorable breed. The Fennux is the latest breedable to make a big hit, from auction to homes these little fox-like cuties are no doubt causing a tidal wave among all those that come in contact with them.

Cool tips for Dating an Avatar found on Discovery News- Lanai Jarrico Reporting...


2/14/13

I'm a shameless news addict and not afraid to admit it. When I'm not covering virtual world news, publishing for others or roaming the grid looking for something to write about, I'm checking out news on different real world outlets often so that I can stay in the know about the world around me.  From that disgruntle ex cop stand off in a cabin, the germ infested broke down Carnival Cruise ship finally docking and unloading traumatized passenger, the Olympic Runner charged in murdering his model girlfriend, a meteor explosion over Russia, , fashion and what not to wear, the Pope leaving his position, celebrity gossip about Kim and Kanye receiving special treatment at JFK airport and causing a security breech and the weird and the wacky, to finding news about Second Life on major news outlets. I must say, it is a lot to absorb!


Here is an interesting article I found on Discovery News about Dating Avatars and some tips that can help those that are involved in dating in Second Life.

Take Your Date to the Movies! About Virtual Cinema- CeciliaRosalie Resident Reporting...



This article shouldn't start in any other way than with this question… What movies are playing?


     In real life, going to the Cinema may be one of the most popular activities for couples on dates or just going out with a group of friends, but is there any place for it in our Virtual World?

 I had never seen a Cinema in Second Life and I think only a few of my friends have heard of it, even though there are lots of movie theaters available. So, I went to check out some of them. Some gave out free snacks such as popcorn, burritos and soft drinks while others were small and minimal. It seems that most of the movies are in high definition and all you need to watch the movie is QuickTime. (It's a free program you can download) I recommend setting  your environment to midnight for best results.

NOW IT'S SHOW TIME!!!!

INTERVIEW WITH CUPID Lanai Jarrico Reporting…




For the past few years, I’ve interviewed a very sexy Cupid for Valentine’s Day and with each passing year he seemed to be more distant and even mentioned hanging up his arrows and moving on to his second passion of dragon slaying and baking special cupcakes and brownies . It appears he did just as he threatened and passed the romance enhancing bow to the next in line. The great news is I have a Cupid to interview, this time it is a Rastafarian. I was always used to a good flirt and the original Cupid’s sarcastic humor. Let’s just hope this new one can hold his own.
