T1RADIO ANNOUNCES TENTH ANNIVERSARY PARTY TO BENEFIT RELAY FOR LIFE OF SECOND LIFE- June 14, 2015

OLDEST CONTINUOUS RADIO STREAM IN SECOND LIFE WAS BEGUN JUNE 12, 2005

Arinultra Cay, Second Life   T1Radio announced their plans for party on June 14, 2015 to celebrate their 10th anniversary.  

The party will take place from 3 to 7pm at Relay dAlliez and will feature T1Radio's current air-staff, alumni and special surprise guests.

T1, the long time Official Broadcaster of  Relay For Life of Second Life, is the sponsor of the Relay Rockers team, and the party will be held as a benefit for Relay.

In January 2005, Trader Whiplash, who began the station along with Nuala Maracas, was a host for the late Alliez Mysterio's La Vie En Rose.  When Alliez and Tony Beckett decided to begin broadcasting to the club as Radio dAlliez, Trader was given the opportunity to learn to DJ.  He crafted his sets around classic rock and roll, a change from the pop and electronic music popular in SL clubs at that time.  The station broadcasted to La Vie en Rose and the Rue dAlliez sim, one of the first private 'islands' created in world.  By June of 2005 Alliez and Tony had turned their attention to the establishment of dAlliez Estates and were about to close the station and the club when Trader reached an agreement to maintain both. He changed the name to T1Radio and along with his best friend Nuala Maracas, began to build a staff.  Early members of T1Radio included Anthony Wesburn, Java Mama,  Sassyblonde Hebert and Rex Tardis, and Radio Riel's Gabby Riel.  Diana 'Dee' Wolfe and Madelyn Majestic also joined the station and continue to broadcast weekly shows.

The station remained in Rue dAlliez where it operated its home base club LEGENDS Classic Rock until 2011 when it moved to its own sim.

T1Radio and Relay For Life have become almost synonymous. When Jade Lily organized the first Relay For Life in Second Life T1Radio was there to support the fundraising.  Trader, a leukemia survivor, Nuala and Alliez began a team based at La Vie en Rose.  The team became known as the Relay Rockers and has participated in every Relay held in world. In 2006 T1Radio was asked to fill in when the scheduled audio was unable to continue following a grid crash and Trader and T1 stepped in and rocked the track well into the night.  The following year Fayandria Foley asked T1 to return and thus began a 10 year relationship between the biggest event and the oldest station in Second Life.  In 2014 the American Cancer Society and Relay For Life recognized Trader, Nuala and T1Radio for its dedication and contributions to what has become one of the largest Relay For Life fundraisers in the world by inducting them in the RFL of SL Hall of Honor. 

Today T1Radio remains a fun station with friendly DJs, great mixes of music and 24/7 Classic Rock the Way YOU Like It.  Hosts and DJs can apply to T1 by contacting Trader, Nuala or LEGENDS Manager Xyza Armistice.

T1Radio, Trader and Nuala remain dedicated to providing entertaining music for everyone. They remain dedicated to supporting Relay For Life as well as the Dreams community and the AviChoice Awards.

SL 2.0 - FUD for thought (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt!) -- Gatz Inoue Martian reporting

SL 2.0 is coming

Someday soon we might log into our beloved virtual world and see something like this on the login screen of our viewer:

PRESS RELEASE - Linden Labs today announced that it will be shutting down the virtual world service known as Second Life.  This will mark the opening of Second Life 2.0, the company's new virtual world….

And so it goes...but for many of us the loss of Second Life isn’t simply the loss of a game like World of Warcraft, it is much more akin to a meteor hitting the earth and wiping out all life.  

The virtual world we inhabit is not called “Second Life” for nothing,  it is designed to be just that, a second life.  Many people here have families and activities that are just as important to them as any activity that a person might partake in with actual flesh and blood.  For some, Second Life provides a means to live a life that they would not otherwise be capable of enjoying due to disability or other hardship.  To everyone this deeply involved in Second Life, the potential loss of something that is such a central part of your first life causes anxiety and fear.

Linden Labs is aware of all these things,  a simple google search on “Second Life 2.0” returns quote after quote from Linden Labs going as far back as 2014:

“...The new Second Life will offer more robust tools for creators. Games, designs, goods, all the things that make the current incarnation of Second Life the go-to place for current users will be part of the new world….”

https://monaeberhardt.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/ebbe-altberg.png CEO Ebbe Altberg

CEO Ebbe Altberg

http://thenextweb.com/dd/2014/06/24/linden-labs-building-new-second-life-scratch-woo-new-users/

“...Linden Lab is working on a next generation virtual world that will be in the spirit of Second Life, an open world where users have incredible power to create anything they can imagine and content creators are king.”

CEO Ebbe Altberg - https://community.secondlife.com/t5/General-Discussion-Forum/Linden-Lab-is-building-a-NEW-virtual-world/td-p/2753476

https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/in1WqvSDlbQLvTiM.medium, oculus rift

Oculus Rift and Second Life

One of the rumors that started a lot of furor toward the end of last year was the introduction of a viewer that supported Oculus Rift.  Oculus Rift is a virtual reality helmet designed to be owned by people and used in the home.  It will interface with a desktop computer and will allow people to bring themselves closer than ever to the virtual world they inhabit.   Many thought that you would be required to have a Rift as part of the usage of the new Second Life.  While you can find several statements indicating there will be compatibility with the VR helmet, there is also indication that the new Virtual World platform will support PCs and mobile devices right from the outset.  

Given that Linden Labs wants to support Oculus Rift from the outset but also wants to maintain the current user base, they would be foolish to cut off support for the PC which is the primary platform.  The rumors surrounding this were blown vastly out of proportion, if anything Second Life 2.0 will support more ways of accessing the service to allow a wider user base and a larger community.  “We want to support mobile from the beginning... Any content in the new platform will be good on Oculus and PC.”  --Ebbe Altberg http://nwn.blogs.com/nwn/2015/03/second-life-news-ebbe-altberg-sl-2.html)

From the Oculus Website:

“Today, we’re incredibly excited to announce that the Oculus Rift will be shipping to consumers in Q1 2016, with pre-orders later this year.”  

https://www.oculus.com/blog/first-look-at-the-rift-shipping-q1-2016/

It is interesting that the consumer Oculus Rift and SL 2.0 are both set to release in 2016,  working together it seems likely that Linden Labs and Oculus VR will be able to produce a result that is much larger than either one of them could produce on their own.  It also stands to reason that a release of the consumer version of the “Rift” would coincide with the release of a new virtual world platform so that Linden Labs could ride the wave of excitement surrounding VR.  Oculus VR is talking about a 200-400 dollar price point for the VR helmet,  which means that it will be within the price range of most people and hopefully not as cost prohibitive or as complicated to use as the present developer incarnation of Oculus Rift.

Given Linden Labs continued support of the present Second Life and their active development of Second Life 2.0 with plans toward compatibility with upcoming hardware it seems unlikely that the user base is going to be abandoned.  What is most likely is that SL 1.0 and SL 2.0 will both exist side by side for a time as people get used to the new platform and gradually shift over to it.  Any way you look at it, it is an exciting time to be a resident of Second Life.  There is so much on the horizon that promises to be far more than we could have imagined when this service came online 12 years ago.

STOP THE PRESS! – A SNEAK LOOK BEHIND THE SCENES AT THE SL ENQUIRER- Mackenzie Abbot reporting

To the casual reader, the SL Enquirer is a great Second Life news source.  To others, it’s just a tarted-up blog with pretensions of being a newspaper.  However you see the SLE, you keep coming back again and again.  It’s friendly and familiar, with a great mix of news, views and interesting articles written by a team with a wide range of interests.  But behind the scenes, gentle reader, lies a different world.  A world of debauchery, greed for power and control.

To begin with, the initiation ceremony is humiliation enough.  But when you are in dire need of a handful of lindens to feed your starving family, you’ll let anyone do anything to you with a rubber chicken, a Walmart gift-card and small statue of Oprah Winfrey.  Survive that and you become embroiled in the seedier side of the SL Enquirer.  For a start, you are not allowed to address the CEO, Lanai Jarrico, as anything but “Miss Jarrico”.  The punishment for calling her anything else will earn you a donkey punch to the back of the head while still being receptive of a dog toy.  And you must never NEVER look her directly in the eyes unless given permission.

A recent image of an SLE journalist ,who missed out a comma in a sentence, trying to pacify Miss Jarrico.

The hours are long and laborious; often lasting a few days until Miss Jarrico is totally satisfied that you are worth of a reprieve from duty.  These reprieves can last from 1 to 7 seconds, depending on her mood, and may or may not include comfort breaks and/or food.  Call into the press room anytime of the day or night and you will see dozens of avatars, broken and battered by toil, endless research and spellchecking.  Many, just shells of their former selves, starting to take notice of their other male captives and doing their level best to hide broners, all why trying to avoid the wrath of their wicked, masochistic editor-in-chief.  Meetings can last for weeks with little or nothing being said.  The last meeting this reporter went to consisted entirely of singing nursery rhymes backwards, and mass mutual shame fest; interspersed with occasional cries of “Fo’ Shizzle Ma Nizzle!” (shouted as loud as possible to Miss Jarrico’s question, “Do you pathetic waste of prims love working for me?!?”) .

The women in the press pack don’t get away lightly either.  I observed one reporter being throttled with her own thong for writing an article that didn’t give praise to the SL Enquirer and dared to express her own views.  The party line (or should that be the Panty Line) should be followed at all times or woe betide your soul.

Three female staffers anger the CEO by not praising The SL Enquirer and are dealt with in line with the SLE Handbook.

One female presspacker, who we will call Jill, spoke to me discreetly from under a table.

“I turned up here all eager and peachy-keen on writing about my passion for fashion…and shoes….and purses….I was bouncing!  I longed to be a journalist and share my adoration for mesh with the world.

And then I signed the contract…

…I was still aglow at finally being a reporter and that’s when the mood changed.  She suddenly had a fire in her eyes and her voice changed.  She took off her glasses and began chanting.  Two of her goons appeared from nowhere and held me in my seat.  When she had finished chanting and her head had spun round to the right position, she stood up, disrobed and……and….”

She broke down quietly but regained her composure a few seconds later.

“Let’s just say there was a forest on the outskirts of the Amityville House Of Horror”

Jill turned a vicious shade of lime green at this point and scuttled away.  I never saw her again.  I’ve since heard rumours that she managed to escape and went into hiding on a sim close to the Blake Sea.  I do hope she’s ok…

Staff Action Figures on SLE Now!

Dear reader, please take it from someone who has seen and experienced the horrors at first hand; the SL Enquirer is not what it seems!  Yes it’s a great read and seems like fun to work for from the outside.  But brutality and fear reign supreme in the world of Miss Jarrico.  Please, spread the word, send help.  We implore you.

I must close now as I hear the sound of 12 inch spiked heels approaching.  Please, save us!  I must now return to pixel-counting, if I’m caught writing this, I will be subject to pain beyond human imagination….

…Keeping Up With The Kardashians…

What's Hot this Season for Your Spring Wardrobe- Ceciliarosalie Reporting…

Spring is coming to an end but it doesn’t mean you can’t shop for things that you can carry over to Summer! This season, clothing and jewelry creations seem to have taken a cue from nature. This spring there was a move toward the cooler and softer side of the color spectrum. An eclectic, ethereal mix of understated brights, pale pastels and nature-like neutrals drawn from daydreams of simpler times. Remembrances of retro delights, folkloric and floral art, and the magical worlds of tropical landscapes restore a sense of well-being as we head to the summer.

I went window shopping because I want to renew my wardrobe. I have highlighted for you some of the creations that follow this year’s spring trends. It is just a feast for your eyes so keep on reading!

My first stop was at **Asteria Creations** main store where I noticed these two wonderful clothing sets, Asia Mesh Dress and Destiny Mesh Long Skirt with matching mesh blouse.

Visiting Virtual Africa- Debby Sharma Reporting...

Africa is the second largest continent with the second largest rank in terms of population. It covers 6% of the land mass of Earth surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea, Suez Canal, Red Sea, Indian Ocean and Atlantic Ocean. It is  the only continent to stretch from the northern hemisphere to the southern hemisphere crossing over the Equator creating a vast climatic ranging area from tropical to sub-arctic. It is also home to the one of world’s earliest and longest lasting civilizations, the Pharaonic Civilization of  Ancient Egypt in 3300 B.C.  

With such rich cultural heritage, how much does Africa in Second Life showcase? It was worth a visit to explore and learn more about this part of our world.

My first impression of Africa in Second Life was amazement paired with educational information. A club accompanied with a library gives almost all the information to get one started. Among the many books stacked at one end, one that caught my eye was about Queen Neferatari (Queen Nefertiti), whose marriage to Ramesses II is one of the greatest royal love affairs that brought an end to a hundred year war between Nubia and Egypt making it a perfect political conglomeration to two power houses.

 There are books on Kings and Queens, music, folk songs, folk lore and others. The knowledge imparted does not end in the library; one may find books and notecards at every important landing throughout Africa in Second Life. A detailed history on Candace of Meroë, King Hannibal, King Mansa Musa I (Emperor Moses), Shaka (King of the Zulus), King Prempeh, Nana Yaa Asantewa, King Ramesses II, Amenhotep IV, Taharqa, Queen Nzingha or “Amazon Queen of Matamba”, “Makeda” or “Belkis” are given.

Moving on, to one side are small thatched huts with vendors of many designers selling costumes of Africa. Clothing outfits are in vibrant colors embroidered with Jelabiya like that worn in North eastern Africa. There are outfits similar to Djellaba, Dashiki garments worn in north western Africa, The designs are with rich proportions of different colors. One may also find various vibrant coloured bandanas or headbands worn by women in Africa.

On the other side of the library are the protected wetlands where one may see the many animals of Africa wandering about. One may also find migratory birds in the dense thicket or on the perch. The area is called Africa Live Terredarmoise where one may walk or relax on the silts of construction like in a typical mangrove swamp in West Africa, Benin Republic. Be ready to find underwater fauna like tortoise, mangrove tress and many migratory birds. The environment is peaceful with the sounds of nature nurturing ones soul.

Alongside is the Africa Green Ekolo with all the real life news and latest updates on initiatives on environmental issues. Detailed information in presented on the RAMSAR Convention on wet lands, uranium pollution, loss of wetlands and the endangered species among others. One may also find an interview with Cotton made in Africa (CmiA) who are working along with Trade Foundation (AbTF) to reduce the imbalance in cotton prices. Their main aim is to address with its initiative, working with small holder farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa to improve social, economic and ecological living conditions.

The fun with freebies, shopping and information does not end here. There is an Auditorium Ganvie that has various informative videos and movies for free. It is also a place where Open Concerts are held. Events like the Earth Week, Route of Slaves, Black Genies, African poetries Week, Slammers Recital, Peace Train among others are held throughout the year.

Visit Africa Live for a fulfilled experience with exotic music and dance at Grand Popo above sharks, turtles and squids. Look around for the free African art market and art gallery accompanied with various glass sculptures and carvings. Shop for African clothing for formal ethnic groups and don’t forget to relax near the "palaver tree" and read the tales of Mami Wata and other African ancestral stories around the Baobab in the Mangrove forest. Take a boat to visit the lakeside village of Africa today and come home with a big smile after a relaxed yet adventurous vacation.
