Introducing Discount Roulette- Lanai Jarrico Reporting…

Everyone loves a great deal when they are out and about
shopping in Second Life. With the countless malls and stores across the grid it
can become overwhelming trying to look for items that are both quality and
match your shopping budget. Here is an interesting solution to your shopping
dilemma, how about playing a little bit of Discount Roulette? It is the newest
most exciting way for merchants to show off their newest products.
It works in two ways. For merchants, it allows them to
put products in the machine and set the price. When customers pay the set
price, they will receive a random discount anywhere from 10%, 20% or even 100%
off! You may think nothing is free but why not take the chance and have some
fun.
To learn more about this unique product, we sat down with
creator Julya Lykin to talk more about it.
Interview
with Julya Lykin
Lanai:
Hi Julya, can you tell me a little bit about Shame Me Designs and what your
brand has to offer Second Life residents?
Julya: Shame Me
Designs started off as a shape shop. It
had progressed into other things, dabbling in applier friendly clothing, and
now Discount Roulette. Thus far, Shame
Me Designs has also been the home of the hunt Dare2Bare (next one is January 15th
– February 15th).
Julya: I’ve always
had a passion for marketing. Being a
designer myself, I know the price it takes to put out a freebie. Designing anything takes time, and time is
money. This way the designers will be
able to make their cost back from making the item, and give the customers an
exciting reason to come frequently, to see what’s new. It’s a true win, win!
Julya: Setting up
the machine is quite simple. Edit the
machine, and put your price in the “Description” box. Then click over to the “Contents” Tab, take
out the “gift box,” and put your item inside.
While you’re in the “Contents” Tab, double click on the script and
simply click the reset button, close everything up and your ready to rock. One item per machine.
Julya: Yes, the
machine is sold as copy, no transfer.
You can set up as many as you like.
As other versions come out, there will be free updates.
Julya: No. Anyone can play. It is set up to be completely random.
Julya: There are
two different ways you can purchase the machine. In-world you can purchase it at Shame Me
Designs. There is a machine set out with
an item inside. Or if you prefer, you
can also purchase it on Marketplace. It
is available at both locations for L$350.
Lanai:
With products like Discount Roulette available to shoppers, I think it makes
shopping a bit more fun. Will you be coming up with other ways to bring
merchants and customers together?
Yes, there is a group made called Discount Roulette, in
which customers can find all the newest locations and designers can inform
customers of their new items. Once a
week there will be an updated list posted in notices of stores with slurls
attached for your convenience. The
Discount Roulette blog is now up and running, where the list will be
maintained. Another feature will be
designer items blogged. We have a few
more tricks up our sleeves for the future =).

Thanksgiving is Coming Soon! Here are some festive Holiday Hunts Happening Now in Second Life- Ceciliarosalie Reporting…
Wednesday, November 05, 2014

Thanksgiving
day is a national holiday celebrated primarily in the U.S and Canada as a day
of giving thanks for the blessing of harvesting and of the preceding year.
Although it is mostly referred as An American holiday there are several places
around the globe which hold similar traditions and celebrations for the day. Thanksgiving
day has its roots in religious and cultural customs. Strange as
it may seem there’s not a fixed date for this holiday and dates vary
depending on the exact country separately.
Let’s have
a closer look on these different dates
Canada: on the
second Monday of October , U.S.: Thanksgiving, currently
celebrated on the third Thursday of November, Norfolk Island:
Thanksgiving is celebrated on the last Wednesday of November and in Germany is
in early October, though German festival is influenced by Christian religion.
Most
families follow traditions begun on the first Thanksgiving, but many have their
own traditions that they follow each year. The best thing about Thanksgiving is
spending time with family. Many people live far from their inmates and travel
long distances by any means of transport to be with their loved ones.
Thanksgiving is the busiest travel day of the year!
Traditional
foods are a large part of Thanksgiving celebrations. Many families include the
entire family in the food preparation. Traditional foods include turkey,
stuffing, gravy, sweet potatoes, cornbread, mashed potatoes, and cranberry
sauce. Many people serve pie for dessert at the end of the meal. Popular pie
flavors are pumpkin, pecan, sweet potato, and apple.
Many
generous folks use Thanksgiving as an opportunity to help the less fortunate.
Some people volunteer to serve food at homeless shelters on Thanksgiving Day
and others donate to shelters or participate in canned food drives.
The
Wishbone Feature!!!
Some families include breaking the turkey's wishbone as part of their celebration. The wishbone is found attached to the breast meat in the turkey's chest. After the meat has been removed and the wishbone has had a chance to become dry and brittle, two people each take one end of the bone, make a wish, and pull. Whoever ends up with the larger part of the bone gets their wish!

But what
happens in SL on Thanksgiving day?
Just like
in RL avatar families are gathered feasting and celebrating Thanksgivings Day.
As for my
dear shopping addicts…
Almost
every shop operating on the grid announces sales and great deals on that
special Day. There are also some great hunts which are worth mentioning.
Dirty Turkey 5.0
Jerky Turkey Hunt 4
Golden Thanksgiving
Gobble Gobble Hunt
Events
Keep in mind that more parties and
events always come up at the last minute. ;)

It
is my pleasure to share such an accomplished woman with The SL Enquirer fans in
this spotlight feature and someone I proudly call a dear friend.
Linda
Lauren is a 4th generation psychic medium who owns and operates a
metaphysical center in Mountainside, New Jersey. Her abilities have taken her
on an interesting journey through life. Her professional career in intuitive
zoning stems back to 1978 where she first began consulting law enforcement in
murder investigations. She has went on
to help many find peace and healing throughout her career.
I
have had the opportunity on several occasion to spend time with Linda Lauren
and her assistant Susan Dolinko at her metaphysical center where I’ve
experienced my first Reiki session, got a personal reading as well as two
separate visits to see Max, one of the 13 ancient crystal skulls. I have also gone to two of her book signings
in New York City. All I can say is Linda is the real deal and one of those
unique people that leave a lasting impression. Her presence radiances love,
healing and peace and she also inspire me with her kindness and abundance of
energy.
Today,
Linda Lauren spends her time as a resident psychic on Sway in the Morning radio
show on Sirius/XM, The Ron and Yaya in the Morning radio show in Reno, and
making appearances on numerous media sources such as CNN, NBC, ABC-TV ,The New
York Times, The Daily News and The Wall Street Journal just to name a few.
She
also loves to blog, contributing color forecasts on The Huffington Post, The SL
Enquirer, writing and meeting with clients at Linda Lauren’s Embracing the
Universe in her native New Jersey, as
well as in the virtual realm here in Second Life.
If her répertoire isn’t
impressive enough, Linda Lauren is an energy artist as well as author of
several books including Medium Rare, Hostage in Time and her
latest work, Sentimental Journey.
Without
giving too more much away, I will let Linda share what inspired her as well as
latest book and where you can get it.
Interview with Linda Lauren
Lanai: Linda as always it is such a pleasure to interview
you about what is going on in your very busy and exciting life. You have really
kept busy since the last book signing I went to for Medium Rare in New
York City. How are you doing these days?
Linda:
I'm doing well and enjoying both my real life and my Second Life. I have been
doing a lot of writing, blogging and creating my daily Linda Lauren's Color Forecast™
to share with people to help them create their day.
Lanai: You have done so much in the 6 years I’ve known
you. How do you manage everything and still stay sane and balanced?
Linda:
Meditation is key for balance. I open and close my day with at least a half
hour session.
Lanai: Let’s jump right in and discuss your new book; Sentimental
Journey. It takes place in wartime, 1944 and is about a romance that seems
to happen by fate. Can you give our readers a teaser about the story and the
main characters Allison and Johnny?
Linda:
I explain it like this: What if you had the cure for the common cold available
to you whenever you needed it? What if that cure was in the form of a
twenty-four-hour time-release capsule?
What if it not only cured your cold but also took you back in time by
twenty-four years?
Now
imagine your cold returns when you return, and you discover there is a
forty-eight-hour time-release cold capsule in the experimental stages. Would
you be desperate enough to take that capsule? What if in doing so it takes you forty-eight
years into the past, making you a spirit in time and meeting the love of
your life smack in the middle of World War II?
That
is what is happening to Allison McKay in the year 1992, and her dilemma is
further complicated by the man she meets and the people she befriends. Enjoy
watching love race over two different time periods to bring two people
together.
Lanai: I notice,
you like to write your books with the scene being in the early time periods?
What draws you to that time?
Linda:
What draws me is a family or karmic connection that I might feel about the era.
Then I start to research and get into the atmosphere of the time period.
Lanai: What is your most favorite genre to write about?
Linda:
I enjoy writing time travel romance, ghost stories, and, of course about my
work as a psychic medium.
Lanai: What inspires your writing? Do you ever use real
life experiences and incorporate them within the themes of your non-fiction
work?
Linda:
Real life is a catalyst for me. In Sentimental Journey, the story came
about because my late mother gave me the pink-faced lapel watch pin she
received from my dad in 1944. There is a photo of her wearing it in the book,
and it is a key element in the story.
Lanai: Your book signing is coming up for Sentimental
Journey, where is it taking place and how can fans get tickets?
Linda:
The event is taking place at the Carlyle Hotel in NYC and is by private
invitation. To get on the list, please call or write using the information
below. Please call 908-518-9001 or email info@lindalauren.com
Lanai: Where can our readers purchase Sentimental
Journey and other books you have written?
Lanai: What do you
have in store for 2015 that we should be watching for? Any messages you would
like to share with our readers for this coming year?
Linda:
The new year ahead is going to be invigorating and positive. Personally, my
next books will be fiction and non-fiction. I'm writing about color and energy
and also introducing a possible new time travel series character.
Thank you for sharing what you have been up to and giving
our readers a sneak peek into your new book. I wish you all the best!

And they Lived Happily Ever After-The Wedding of Nicholas Courtois and Bubbles Song Debby Sharma Reporting...

The sun was almost setting; it was 3:00 pm.
We could see the rays peering through the branches of the trees at the start of
the altar. The trees blossomed blue and white flowers with white lights hanging
down and transmitting a perfect romantic aura in the environment. On 26th of October, 2014, Nicholas
Courtois and Bubbles Song wed in the holy matrimony of forever love.
Wedding Venue http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Sarcasm/229/49/22
The groom walked down the altar, covered with
petals, with the groomsman, Cowboy Swansan. Nicholas stood there waiting at the
end of the altar with his eyes sparkling as he looked down thinking about the
last few moments of his bachelor life ended. Then the flower girl, Sara, followed
by Ivy, the bridesmaid with Blackheart, Best man and son of the couple, entered
and walked towards the altar. The groom looked up with the smile and thinking
all the dreams he had dreamt with his love. Becks and Bubbles held hands while climbing
up the steps to walk to the end of altar. Every one smiled at the beautiful
bride. The groom, Nicholas looked determined and convinced that she is the only
one who could complete him in every way.
Samual Wetherby; edited by Debby Sharma to form to a collage. |
The beautiful white wedding gown sewed with
soft silk and ribbons were custom made by “Junbug”. Bubbles says, “It was a
weird story actually. Ever since I was a little girl, I've always said that
when I get married I want Sarah's ball gown from the movie The Labyrinth. I
couldn't find a mesh version in SL so I settled for a beautiful dress made by
my friend Tori. When I was out shopping for bridesmaid dresses, I stumbled
across this one, which is almost an exact replica of my dream dress, so I had
to have it. Thank you so much Tori.”

The preacher, Vasanti Romano, started the
wedding ceremony by saying, “Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to join
together Nicholas Courtois and Bubbles Song in the hands of marriage.” After a
moment of silence, she asked Becks Jarman, bride’s best friend to give her away
to Nicholas Courtois. The preacher asked both Bubbles and Nicholas if they
wanted to take each other to be their wedded husband and wife respectively. Would
they love, honour, comfort, and cherish each other from that day forward,
forsaking all others, keeping only unto each other for as long as you both
shall live. Bubbles replied “I do” with commitment and love in her eyes. The
couple looked at each other sharing a smile with sparkle in their eyes.
Nicholas replied without any hesitation, “I do.”
When it was time to exchange their vows, Nicholas
chuckled saying, “Course it's me first..." while searching his pockets, he
said, “I wanted to cheat and take the words I had written for you in my picks
and recycle them, not because I waited 'til today to write my vows, but because
they capture how I feel for you and how I've felt for you since the day we met.”
Bubbles smiled as she looked at her organised man. He continued, “On that day I
was looking for a DJ to hire instead I found you, a friend, my girl, my
angel...my songbird. Granted, I never spoke to you much after that day and did
all I could to avoid you but the moment I needed you - you appeared. You made
me laugh and gave me no down time to wallow in shit. And since that day you've
been caring for me, loving me and, let's face it, you've had moments you've
been "dealing" with me. For a while there I was scattered and
struggling and ready to book but you, with all your patience and sweetness made
it your mission to help me see how lucky I am. If anyone doubts it I'll confirm
to them right now that you are the most amazing woman. You showed up right when
I needed you. You replaced bullshit with sanity, conflict with calm and doubt
with your own brand of goofy optimism - all the while dancing around me,
sticking flowers in my hair as I scowl and try not to laugh...A songbird...a
siren who has sung me into a fog of something new and strange. Those were my feelings
then and they're my feelings now, but here on out I get to love you as my wife.”
With tears rolling down, Bubbles wiped her
cheeks saying, “I know these are probably longer than your average wedding
vows, so please forgive me. But there is a lot I wanted to say to this
amazing man, and you all know me well enough to know I talk too much.” With a
quick laugh, taking his hand and looking up into his eyes, she spoke softly, “Nick,
The very moment you came into my life, is the moment my world was turned upside
down. I've never felt so inexplicably drawn to someone from the second
they said "Hello". Although I had to bury it away and hide it, I
always shone a little bit brighter when you were around. It was a long time
coming before we found our way to one another, but when we did, it happened
exactly when the time was right for both of us. You have made me feel more
deeply than I thought I could, and made me happier every single day than I ever
thought I would be. It hasn't been an easy road for us, but I truly believe it
has been worth it. We have been brought closer and made stronger and what we
have now is exactly what it should be. There is nothing we cannot face if we
stand together. You make my heart smile and you are more of amazement to me,
each day I rediscover you. I fall in love with you again and again with each
kiss and I'm the luckiest girl alive that you chose me to be your wife. And on
this day and every day onward, I promise myself to you totally and completely. I
promise to trust you, encourage you and respect you. To cherish your love and
never take you for granted. I promise to always be honest and open with you. To
earn your love every day and always be the girl you deserve. My heart and
soul are already yours but I promise to let you keep them, as long as you keep
them safe and I promise to do the same with yours in return. I promise to have
the patience that love demands, to speak when words are needed and to share in
the silence when they are not and to never let us lose our spark. I promise to
always argue with you.” She looked up saying, “I told you I'd get that in
there!” smiling again she continued, “I promise to always be your good luck charm
and cheerleader for every Broncos game. But most of all, I promise to love you
unconditionally and without hesitation. Loving what I know of you and
trusting what I don’t yet know, I give you my hand. I give you my love. I give
you myself. These are my vows, and I make them to you with a soul full of love
and a heart full of you. With every beat of my heart, I love you.”
The rings were exchanged. Nicholas placed the
ring on Bubbles's finger followed by Bubbles. They took an oath, “With this
ring I thee wed. I wear it as a symbol of our love and commitment.” With this Vasanti
Romano ends with her final words, “I pronounce that they are husband and wife.
You may now seal the promises you have made with each other with a kiss. Nicholas,
you may kiss your bride!”

After the wedding and the photo session, the
couple went to the reception area, which was a wedding gift from the groomsman,
Cowboy. Family and friends raised a toast for the newly wed couple.
Blackheart Taurus, the couple’s son said, “All
I can say is I wish you and Nick all the happiness that two special people can
have as they both deserve it. One promise I make to you is that I will not let
you down in anyway. Congrats and much happiness to mom and dad.”
Becks Jarman, best friend of the Bride said,
“Hello! For those of you who may not know me, I'm Becks! I'd sincerely like to
thank everyone who could be with us today to celebrate this wonderful day. I
have known Bubbles since my very first weeks on Second Life and from the first
conversation with her I knew we were sister souls and I came to love her more
than I can say! She showed me how much fun there is to be had here and has
since been my best friend, my sister, my roommate, and still one of absolute
favorite people in and out of second life! And just like Bubbles and i became
fast friends, Bubbles knew Nick was the man for her the moment she met him. He
was definitely her knight in shining sunglasses! I've never seen her glowing
and so happy as I have when she's around this guy and I love him for it! I
truly believe these two have something strong and special and I couldn't be
happier for you both! I can't thank you both enough for letting me be such a
big part of your special day. I'm so honoured and happy I could be here today. I
know it's been a bumpy road planning this day, some keyboard malfunctions and
crashes. but we accomplished it like a
boss!”
Ivy (Cottonhand) said, “The groom is my brother. I can say that Trinity
is a special gift for him. I have known Nick for over a year. We met at a Rock
Club. He supported me till that time and I tried to be there for him. When he
told me about Bubbles, I could understand that she is very special girl and
when I met her, she found a permanent place in my heart. I wish both of them a
happy life. I feel so honoured to be her bridesmaid.”
Jeanette Contepomi says, “He proposed to her at my park during her show.
I have those pictures too. My daughter is their flower girl too.
Deligaff says to Bubbles, “I am so happy you
have found your soul mate, I wish you and him many years of happiness.”
Delores Beaumont says, “Bubbles is what her name implies,
a very bubbly personality, Nick seems to be equally as fun to be around, I
think they have found the perfect partnership and wish them a very long and
happy marriage together. Good luck to you both and thank you for
inviting me to be a part of your special day.”
Daydream said, “Nick and Bubbles, you are the perfect SL couple. I
wish for you happiness and joy for as long as it is possible here on SL.
Love you both.”
McDerix and Mariza said, “I've known Bubbles for a long time, some would
say too long! But we had a date every Thursday at the Rockin Blues Cellar and
she became
great friends with all of us! We'd like to wish Bubbles and Nick a
long and happy one and a great marriage too. We
love you guys.”
KiikiiDoll and Jayson said, “Congratulations to
Bubbles and Nick. Sorry we were not able to make the wedding :( Jayson and I
wish you and Nick all the best!”

Mrs.
and Mr. Courtois thanked Cowboy who graciously allowed them the venue to
celebrate. Nichlas laughingly said, “CB who is like my brother, since I met the
guy he's had no problem giving shit to me straight and threatening to kick me
at every turn. Thanks for the support, brother. Then there's Black, my son, he
thinks he's better looking than me but I think it's evident who's the good
looking one in this family, his mother.” He continued, “I also want to thank
Becks who has been there when I might have messed things up with the girl who
is now my wife. So with all that out of the way I say get drunk, request some
music, keep up the talking and have fun. Salud!” With this they raised glass
for the last time till they put their feet on the floor with a brief cake
cutting event and eventually to their first dance.
On behalf of SL Enquirer, we would like to
wish all the happiness and love to our newlywed couple, Bubbles and Nicholas
Courtois.
Clean Up Holiday Hits Second Life Again - LadyLoveDr Reporting- November 1-November 7th
Monday, November 03, 2014
clean up, culture, inventory, LadyLoveDr, second life, sl holiday, The SL Enquirer
No comments
Welcome to
Second Life's traditional clean up holiday!
This tradition was started by Alpha Zaius on the teen grid. This young guy decided that he had so much
junk that he would have to make a holiday out of it. Every year from November 1st through November
7th, second lifers everywhere are calling in sick to take time out of their
busy lives to purge their inventory. Out
with the old and in with the new!
If you're
anything like me, you look at your inventory and are completely overwhelmed at
the amount of items you've managed to collect over a short period of time. Then there's the fact that I click on the
free items even though I won't use them.
You never know, you might see me on a future episode of "Second
Life Hoarders, Buried Alive". I've
collected some tips for doing the dirty work.
Let's get started!
Step
1: Go to your own land, or a public
sandbox if you don't have a place of your own to go. If your land doesn't allow a large amount of
prims you might head on over to the sandbox anyway. I chose to use the SkyBeam Sandbox because
they have 6 levels to choose from and it is easier to find a non crowded level.
Step
2: Right-click the My Inventory folder
and select New Folder. Name this
"TEMP" folder. Move items's
you need to categorize into this folder for sorting. Do this for clothing, notecards, textures,
objects, and so on; one at a time. Be
sure to delete duplicated items along the way.
Drag a bunch of stuff to the ground around you so you can see what it is. This will make it easier to categorize. Anything you don't want you can simply throw
away. But remember, any item that is
transferable you can yard-sale or visit a place like Auction Wars. For this I recommend making a folder titled
"Yard-Sale" or "Auction Wars". After finishing right-click on the trash
listing and select to "empty trash".
Step
3: Archiving is the best way to lower
your inventory count, thus making it faster to load. This is also known as cube-stuffing. You build a prim (you can use a cube, sphere,
anything you want) then edit it, go to the "contents" tab and drag
items into it. I would recommend
categorizing your items. For example,
don't put clothes in with the furniture.
This will make it harder to sort through when you need to look for
something. Afterward click on the
"general" tab and name your prim something you'll recognize
like: Halloween, Shirts, Furniture, etc.
If you want
to go a step further and you own your own land that you know you're not going
to lose, you may place those prims on the land itself. Think of this like a storage unit so you
don't have to lug all that stuff around.
Warnings and advisories: If you
put one no copy object in a box it will make the box no copy. No copy items can
sometimes fail to rez in world and be lost forever. Do this at your own risk. Also, If you have more than 1024 scripts
total inside the box, the system will
not allow the item to rez.
You could
also make your life easier by grabbing an inventory organizer from the
marketplace. I have placed 6 FREE
storage containers on the SL Enquirer Media Grounds to help.
They have hover text over them, but you can edit the script to make it
anything you'd like. I've included
instructions in the script to help you. A great item to pick up at the
marketplace is a texture organizer, those really come in handy! What are you waiting for, get organized!
