Factors to Consider Before Becoming a Massage Therapist
Sunday, June 17, 2018
No comments
With massage therapy
being used to help millions of people cope with sore muscles, emotional
distress and physical ailments, becoming a massage therapist may be just the
right career option for you. Here are some factors to consider before becoming
a massage therapist.
Gaining Experience
To become a successful
massage therapist, you will need to gain as much experience as you can
beforehand. The first thing you will need to consider is whether your heart is
in the right place for the role. Whilst you may be good with your hands, it is
important that massage therapists are empathetic and patient with their
clients. Massaging is classed as a very intimate experience, so a therapist
must be able to deal with their clients’ physical and emotional needs. There
are many tips and tricks that can help you find employment as a massage therapist.
Learn the Art of Massage
To get a better and
clearer understanding of the massage
arts, it is best to engage with a massage therapist and receive a massage
yourself. That way you can get a first-hand insight into what a good massage
should feel like. Make sure that you have questions and queries ready before youhave a
massage, so you can learn more about the profession. Conducting
extensive research and reading this massage therapist description will
help you decide what type of massage therapist job will suit you the most.
Choosing Your Field
With many different
specialties involved in massage therapy, you will need to take time to identify
which route is right for you and what you are best at. There are types of
massages that predominately focus on healing muscles whereas some are more
tailored towards easing stress. When learning and practicing the several types
of massage, you will begin to get a better idea of
what role suits you best.
Getting Certified
Before you begin
training, it is recommended to research into your jurisdiction’s licensing
requirements, so you are aware of what sort of training you will need to be
licensed. Most states in the U.S. have some form of licensing, so it is best to
investigate your state’s licensing board.
Training Programs
There are various massage schools
across the country that you can attend to help you become a massage therapist.
Simply taking the time to research online will help put you in touch with
schools in your area and beyond. However, make sure to look for programs that
lead to receiving a certification that satisfies your jurisdiction’s licensing
requirements, so you can be assured that you will be licensed at the end of the
course. You will also need to factor in your budget when it comes to choosing a
massage school. The cost of a course will vary from school to school, so make
sure you have done your research to find the right school for you that suits
your budget.
It is important that you
thoroughly research the skills and requirements needed to become a massage
therapist. Try and speak to those who are already in the profession who will be
able to provide you with relevant advice and support.

The softer side of kink” -Pen Dragon reporting

Second Life has a lot to offer. The choices you can make are almost limitless and fueled only by your imagination. It’s not hard to agree that there is something for everyone. Most people enjoy shopping, going to clubs and living a pretty normal, happy life but there are those whose tastes and preferences run more on the wild, kinky side.
At some point almost everyone has come across a sex sim, maybe even a BDSM sim and wondered what all the hype and interest was about for these places. Some may even take a deeper look out of curiosity and may or may not have found something they were interested in exploring while others are turned away because it offends their sensibilities or find it too taboo. Some think of BDSM and imagine whips, leather, cuffs and chains and see it as a form of emotional and physical abuse.
The term BDSM is like an umbrella; it covers many varied and different things. The acronym itself means Bondage & Discipline, Dominance & submission, Sadism & Masochism. Within each of those categories there are an almost unlimited number of specific kinks, decisions and lifestyle choices with just as many people who make those choices and live the way that suits them best. Many who do not know about that lifestyle may be under the impression that there is only one to participate in BDSM, only one way things are done.
Allow me to introduce you to something different about BDSM, an aspect of that lifestyle that is quite often misunderstood and maligned. It is called the Daddy Dom (Dominant) and babygirl relationship. At some point you may have seen someone with a Daddy tag or a babygirl tag and wondered what that was about or what it involved. Some have the idea that it is incestous or a form of illegal age play, but as you’ll discover, but it can be something completely different.
The roles in the relationship, Daddy and babygirl, are similar to that of a Dom and a sub (submissive) insofar as the Daddy is the head of the relationship and the babygirl consensually agrees to obey his rules and decisions and agrees that she belongs to him. While this is typical, there are open and even polyamorous Daddy & babygirl relationships. To me one of the most beautiful things about a lifestyle relationship is that it is defined by you to meet the needs and desires you have instead of following traditional societal standards of how a relationship works.
What differentiates a Daddy babygirl relationship is the dynamic on which it is based. Typically a babygirl behaves in a more innocent, childlike manner allowing her Daddy to care for her and allowing her to be free from the stresses and drama of the world around her. That is what leads to the biggest misconception about the relationship, age play. The babygirl is not pretending to be a young child, she is simply behaving as a child might, there is no age given. A babygirl can be any age, it’s the state of mind that drives her. She may want to color in a coloring book, be given a bath or read a story. Sometime it is just a temporary need to retreat to a more carefree mental attitude. The Daddy is responsible for meeting her needs when she is in this headspace. He will take total control and make sure that her needs and desires are met. The Daddy is also responsible for her discipline, as well as rewarding her for good behavior. This is another BDSM aspect of the relationship.
Another popular misconception is that the relationship is incestious. Because of the title Daddy, many think of this role as that of the father and the babygirl being the daughter. Typically, that is not the case, however; as states earlier, there are those who choose to roleplay that particular relationship, but it is not the norm. The Daddy is a father-like figure, but not the father. He is still her husband, boyfriend or Dom. The Daddy is her caregiver, her lover and her disciplinarian and in many cases gets to know his babygirl on a deeper, more intimate level than what most relationships allow.
As with any relationship there is, of course, a sexual component and within the umbrella of BDSM this can and often does involve bondage, sadism, masochism and the aforementioned whips, chains, and cuffs. Again, every relationship is different, tailored to the couple involved and no two are the same. But it is the use of such devices and toys that will deepen and strengthen a relationship. The deep trust a babygirl, or submissive, must place into her Daddy or Dom in order for her to consensually submit herself to him and allow him to use these devices and toys, trusting that he knows what he is doing, is what brings about the unsurpassed intimacy of a BDSM relationship.
Just as important as the sexual encounter can be, so is the time taken afterwards to make sure that the babygirl or sub is okay both mentally and physically. This is called aftercare and is a vital part of the experience. This is time taken to mend any wounds, comfort and calm. This reinforces the bond between the two and deepens the relationship further.
Any BDSM relationship can be complicated, involved and satisfying but, and this is my own opinion, the relationship between a Daddy Dom and his babygirl is a special one. It’s a deeply trusting, inconceivably intimate and extremely loving one. Most people find love, at least once in their lives, but few will ever know the tight bond that develops between a Daddy and his babygirl.
If you are interested in learning more about this lifestyle, I strongly suggest you visit the Babygirl Skygarden or Omega D/s library.

Choosing A Career That’s In Demand
Tuesday, June 12, 2018
No comments
No one wants to dedicate their time to study, only to discover there are so many
people doing that particular job there are not any vacancies. That is why when
choosing which career path to follow, you should look at ones in demand for
people with your qualifications. Generally, in the US there is a shortage of
nurses, accountants, engineers of all types, and several other trades and professions.
You also need to take into account the salary you will be earning. For
instance, some states such as Maine tend to pay slightly lower than the
national average. By the same token, the cost of living in Maine is also lower,
so it evens out.
Engineering
There are many different types of
engineering, and they all have a demand for qualified technicians. Heating,
ventilation and air-conditioning engineers (HVAC)
is an area that is particularly short of qualified technicians, and one that
pays a good salary. Using Maine as an example once again, there are many
options of courses that teach to varying levels for different certifications.
Once you have completed the HVAC training Maine, you will
need to be licensed to work in the areas you have gained qualifications for.
Medical Profession
As long as people become ill or get injured,
there will always be a demand for workers in the medical profession. However,
there is a particular shortage in the nursing field, and if you want to
consider this as a career, you will need to undergo quite intensive training.
You have to complete an accredited registered
nurse program and obtain a license first, and then you can decide if you
want to specialize in any specific area. If you do, you
will have to do further training. However, most nurses love their jobs and
think it has been well worth the effort to get the qualifications they needed.
Accountants and Auditors
People tend to think of accountants as
boring people, but that could not be further from the truth. It is a very
highly regarded profession that pays well. With the ever-increasing complexity
of the American tax systems, good, qualified accountants
are in a very high demand.
They do not always work in accountant
offices. There are many positions once you are qualified within industry and
commerce. In these areas, an accountant’s knowledge can be vital for a business
to run cost efficiently.
Other Trades And Professions With A Demand
These are not the only areas where there is
a demand for qualified people. Some areas of teaching have a huge shortage of
qualified tutors. The other areas where there are not enough people to fill the
jobs include truck driving, software engineers, data analysts, financial
advisors, physical therapists, and data scientists.
The number of jobs available in each trade
or profession can also differ greatly from state to state. Before making your
choice of a career path, take a look at the jobs where is a demand for people
like you in your area. Then look at the training involved. Hopefully, you will
find something that you want to work in.

Strange & Mysterious SL- Seersha Heart Reporting...
Monday, June 11, 2018
culture, explore, mysterious, second life, Seersha Heart, spotlight feature, strange
No comments
One of the best links
provided to SL residents is the "Destinations Guide". If you
open your Destination Guide and look on the left side of the screen you will
find categories. I usually explore a couple listed under "recently
added" [near the top]. This week I visited several stops under the
category "Strange & Mysterious". This category appears near
the bottom of this lengthy list. I visited these sites six months ago,
and visiting them again was quite interesting.
Most Confusing is Jack
the Ripper and Jack the Ripper. Two
distinct and different locations. The
one currently promoted in the destinations guide is very nice build of London
in the late 1800s that is one single block.
Super creepy, dark and changes in weather. While visiting you would realize you are
along one of SL’s many land routes. The
asylum is not part of the real Jack the Ripper.
It is a very nice niche made here in this block for visitors. Take a lot of pictures, this could make a
good Halloween texture to send out.
The parcel I am more
familiar with is titled “1888”. It is on
Timerry Island and has existed a couple of years now. This a full RP city set in late 1800s.
Landing in this city the owner provides period clothes for those who are
OCC. There is a club called “Club 88”. If you want to RP late 1800s and naughty,
start at the club. I am not sure what
all the naughty is on this parcel. I did
stumble onto a place with freebie pony play items. Of course, I picked them up. I wanted to see what they were…let’s say I am
giving a big pass on pony play.
Creepiest city goes to
Inns mouth. You can see the love of building that was put into this Love
craft built. There are interesting things to see in most of the
buildings. Some are run down homes. There is an old bookstore with
a back-room card game. The cards are flying around the room. My
favorite spot is the theater. It runs a silent film clip and cycles
it. Super creepy, super fun, this will keep you busy exploring for quite
a while. I mounted up and rode my horse
around town. The sounds of my horse on
the dark streets was eerie. I wanted the
horse for a fast get away.
Dives or every day
places, are popular builds to make scary. One of those is the DoX
Motel. This is location is in the Pacific northwest. All the rooms
are occupied by unknown people. I recommend adjusting your sun to
midnight for maximum strange effect. I entered each room, most were
disheveled and messy. Remnants of occupants were left behind.
Downstairs the office is unattended. the DoX has an isolated feeling.
I would not have been surprised to have someone jump from the shadows. Plan to stop for only a short time at this
parcel.
Olivia's Diner is
another dive. There is no mistaking the strangeness of this stop.
For one thing there are a couple of murder scene poses in the front lawn.
They are funny and chilling. Inside there is a body on the counter who
has been gutted. There are rats and roaches, roaches on the floor, rats
on the counter. There is a Colonel
Sanders style bucket with human heads inside.
There is an ongoing Horror Trivia.
I won 15L, 1L a question. This
parcel has imagination and care put into the disturbing build. I will be visiting again soon to figure out
what the buck deer on the lawn is doing while standing on the lawn. There are even two dance floors, one inside
by the rats and one outside by the crime scenes. Love it!
Olivia’s wins my vote for more disturbing and spine chilling.
Dystopia is “in” for
builders. I've seen this theme repeated a few times, each time I have
been able to see the care and imagination of the builder. There are
fourdystopian stops I recommend for this type of Strange &
Mysterious. The first two are on the guide. Tableau is a post-apocalyptic
desert area. I took my horse there and rode around the desert. It is desolate, it is lonely. The land seems to go on forever. It
looks like a time from Mad Max movies. Another stop on the Destination
guide that is good is titled Dystopia. The landing point for this build
is off so I have given you a better one below. Dystopia has a city block
open to all as well as an area for group members. Most buildings are
abandoned and that is the overall feeling I had walking through the build.
World's End Café is
featured this week in the Destination Guide. This is not in the Strange
&Mysterious. I would add this strange location. Just a building at
the end of a dock. Hypnotic odd and strange capture how I would rate it. I would recommend adding a trip to the
Nuclear museum if you are dystopia hopping.
I love the Citta Perdu
[the lost city]. I started visiting this site several months ago when it
was snowing there in the city. I asked the builder what the city
represented. She told me it is a city where one day everyone just left.
No war or dystopia, just gone. To add to the thrill of this city go
through the sewers. There is a hidden bar within them. Look at the
subway. There is much to be seen in this lost city. When I first began traveling to this
location, there were northern lights in the backgrounds. Pack your camera and take a friend, this
build is a treat.
I was introduced to
the Verdigris sim by a friend some time ago. On the surface it is
impressive. On my first trip there, I saw a few areas and thought it was
a nice place. Later I visited and began combing the buildings and other
areas. Some of the areas to explore are the Rossell Hope Robbins
sLibrary, the Expedition Hall and the
Clockwork Bird. Like the Lost City, this
stop has much more below the surface than you may anticipate. There is a
mini city that falls victim to a tidal wave within the walls of
Verdigris. There is a man thinking about jumping into the water
below. He has been considering this for months now. What will you find in Verdigris?
Temple of Iris is on
the strange & mysterious Destination Guide list. It is neither
strange nor mysterious. It is a historic SL location. If I were to
make a list of "must see" locations for SL, the Temple would be on
the list. For those who build, look at that prim count. Ouch! The total prims on this build is huge and
scary. Stop by take your picture and
visit some authentic SL history.
I saved the most unusual
for last. It is called "untitled". This stop is on part
of the LEA sim. LEA builds only remain active for set period. This
build is one to cam up and out to see from a distance, then cam in and look at
the details. Waterfall of blood, shallow pool of blood are parts of this
build. You may move around using a mirror teleport which I believe is
quite clever. It is necessary to take
your camera out, very far out to view the entire build. There are two bronze men carrying the
“burden” of the project. Each man is
standing in a corithen columned square.
Bring your camera back in and visit all the sites you are able to
visit. This build is temporary.
Strange and Mysterious is a very
subjective term. I feel that one of the
words should be unusual. What one person
considers Strange and Mysterious [Untitled] another person may view it as
beautiful art. I am fairly sure that
anyone visiting Olivia’s Diner would believe is unusual and strange. Dystopian ideas are located in many areas of
SL. If you visit them, look for the
meaning the building has tried to convey to the viewer. Keep up with SL Enquirer and we will let you
know what we’ve seen and reviewed on the grid.
And as always, if you are interested in reading more about something in
SL, let us know. Here are

Get a Head Start on Off-Roading Adventures
Sunday, June 10, 2018
No comments
Off-roading
is the practice of driving away from the man-made road, and it encompasses a
wide array of different terrains. Depending on where you plan to drive, you
could encounter sandy beaches, muddy trails, rocky canyons and everything
in-between. At first, it can seem very intimidating to get started with
off-roading, especially with all the confusing terminology surrounding the
sport, but once you get down to the nitty-gritty and learn the basics, it’s not
all that complicated, and you too can start heading off into the wild.
Why Off-Road?
Maybe you already have
a four-wheel drive vehicle but don’t know what to do with it, or why to even
bother off-roading. There are many different reasons people like to go
off-roading, but a big part tends to be the thrill of being ‘off the beaten
track’. Driving through the wilderness to untouched scenery with no-one around
to stop you can provide an incredible feeling of freedom and harmony with
nature. Not only that, but for photographers it’s an absolute goldmine. No more do you have
to stick to taking the same boring photos of the same places as everyone else,
you can venture into the wild and find unexplored locations. If any of this
appeals to you, off-roading might be for you.
What Kind of Vehicle Do You Need to
Have?
How do you know if
you’ve got the right vehicle for off-roading? There are a few basic qualities
that all off-roading cars have (or should have) that will make your journey
much easier. The first is of course, four-wheel drive (4WD); this lets your
engine provide power and torque to all four of the vehicle’s wheels, which can
come in incredibly handy when driving off-road.
The next thing is
tires. You’ll want tires that can garner the most traction as possible, and
they will typically be wider than regular tires so that greater surface area
can be obtained. Then you’ll also need a decent suspension. Having bad
suspension while off-roading can make your road-trip a nightmare, because
you’ll be able to intensely feel every boulder, hill, or pot-hole that you come
across.
Lastly, you’ll
probably want to be equipped with some sort of rear and front bumpers. This stops your car from becoming scratched
and provides further protection from potential collisions. There are lots of
perfectly suitable off-roading vehicles out there that can easily double as
your day-to-day car, such as the Land Rover Defender. Have a look around and
decide what’s best for you.
If you are dead
serious about off-roading, and want a vehicle that is completely
indestructible, you could even go for a military-grade vehicle such as the Deuce And A Half Offroad, affectionately nicknamed because it can haul
two and a half tonswhile off-roading. Although these types of vehicles
definitely aren’t necessary to start off-road adventures, it will give you a
certain authority on the road.
Learn theBasics of Off-Roading
To get a firm grip on
the mechanics of off-roading, it’s a good idea to look up or have someone teach
you how to handle traction control, speed, locking differentials,and other
essential pieces of knowledge. This is all fairly easy stuff to find online, but
to be extra safe you might want to consult off-roading specialists.
Essentials of Off-Roading and What to
Do When You Get Stuck
Getting stuck is an
off-roaders worst nightmare, but there are a few essentials you can carry
around in the back of your vehicle that can help to rescue you from a sticky
situation. Tools such as winches and snatch straps will help to pull your
vehicle out from where it is stuck, whist a snorkel attachment for the engine
can prevent your engine becoming flooded (which is a huge no no). Last but not
least, a first aid kit is always a wise essential to carry around while
off-roading, just in case.
Once you get the hang
of it, off-roading is exhilarating and fun, allowing you to explore and camp in
new, undiscovered places all over the country. Hopefully you’re now at least a
little more equipped to head into the world of off-roading.

Imagine that you have suddenly become a billionaire. You buy yourself a yacht, a castle, a Lamborghini, presents for all your friends and the most expensive hairstyle imaginable. Now what?
Now of course you want to help your fellow humans. The best way to do that is to fund science projects but there are so many to choose from. Which will it be? You could fund medical research and find cures for malaria or Alzheimer’s or any of the other diseases that kill so many people. You could fund climate research or space travel or robotics. Maybe you could find a new source of energy.
Do you have a secret dream of a discovery that will change the world? Come to GeekSpeak and tell us about it.

The best careers for gamers
Wednesday, June 06, 2018
No comments
What kind of wonderful would it be to be able to get
paid to play video games all day? Too good to be true? Not at all, gaming is a
lucrative business, and the people behind all your favourite games aren’t doing
their jobs for free. Discover how you can put your love of gaming to good use
with this list of top careers for gamers.
Game director
Be the one in charge and unleash your vision for a
game as a game director. Much like a film director, this role involves
directing the gameplay, and creating an overview of all eventualities in the
game. You will be responsible for working with a creative team to define your
overall vision. You will play several roles, including budget planner and game
designer, keeping everything on time, and within budget. This job would suit
creative gamers, who want to work their way up within the gaming industry. To
see what degree you will need to pursue this role, check out Withmydegree.org.
Character designer
This is a multi-skilled role which will see you
creating the look and feel of complex characters. As a talented illustrator and
animator, you will be responsible for the initial design and the padding out of
characters. Each character will need a backstory and a goal, giving them a
personality which can be then used in a game. Every element of the character
will have to be carefully thought out, with consideration to how the design can
be animated effectively and realistically. You will need to be both creatively,
and technically experienced to be a successful character designer. For more
information about what experience you need for this role, visit Graphicdesign.com
3D modeler
As the job title suggests, you will create 3D
computer models, allowing images to be seen from three sides. You will turn
initial ideas and 2D sketches into 3D models to determine the efficacy of each
one. This is an essential role, asin gaming, it needs to be determined that all
ideas and sketches can translate into characters, backgrounds, and accessories
that work. Sometimes ideas may not work, and this is where your expertise comes
into play.
Professional gamer
Yes, there really is a career that involves playing
video games all day. As a professional gamer you will need to be heavily
invested in gaming to a competitive level. This is for those that play for
around eight hours a day, honing skills and completing levels quickly and
efficiently. You will enter competitions, and, if you are good enough, will
receive sponsorship that can see you make gaming a career. Competitive gaming
is seen as a sport, and there are several competitions with huge cash prizes. Find
out more, here.
With so many avenues open to those that enjoy
gaming, you could soon be turning a hobby into a full-time career. Experience
is key, so ensure you approach local companies or individuals with the career
you want to find out how you can achieve it.
Mainland Route 12 – Some Interesting Finds - Seersha Heart Reporting…

Mainland Route 12, second life, Seersha Heart, spotlight feature, The SL Enquirer
No comments
Linden Labs Department of Public Works and Roads is
responsible for adding content to the Mainland SIMs including roads, railways,
monorails, bridges, ferryboats, sailing routes and so on for residents to
use. Along the roads are “rez” areas
where any resident may “rez” a vehicle to drive and use the roads. If you need creative inspiration or are
curious, take a drive on one of these mainland routes. I promise you will find things that interest
you. I will warn you in advance, be
prepared to be periodically kicked out of that very large castle you love. Sometimes navigating the Mainland is a
challenge due to odd shaped land parcels.
As an owner of an extremely odd shaped parcel along Route 12 [Nautilus
continent], I have trouble at times navigating at the edges. I hopped in my Porsche and backed out on to
route 12.
[IM me for a free
I took a drive alone Route 12 on the Potter
SIM recently. My adventure began by
cruising by a Diner. Many residents will
build or place RP buildings along the roads.
Looking inside this one I found some good detail. I have visited these highway Diners and other
places to eat with friends. It is a nice
place to chat, and many offer a wide selection.
I wanted something more unusual so I drove on down the road.
Shortly I found my first “unusual”
location. Nestled in a small wooded
parch of land was a wooden building that looked like a home. Upon closer inspection, I learned the “Odie
Cinema” is dedicated to silent films.
Set up and beautifully detailed by Abinoam Nørgaard,
there is a small screening room, a refreshment area and a small upstairs
lounge. It is completely adorable. I was not surprised to learn that Abinoam
is a fan of the 1920 Berlin SIM. The
Odie Cinema may be found along route 12.
Regular movie showings are at 1 pm SLT on Fridays. It is a lot of fun to watch these movies.
I drove
next to the Pod Tours kiosk. I see these
pods traveling down route 12 all the time.
For those who don’t know, until 2015 there existed a Second
Life Transit Authority. The person
who managed this process had all kinds of different cars that you could
regularly find and use along the roads [along with other vehicles]. The thought was why have roads without
travel? Now we have pods. When you see a pod traveling down the road,
click on it and you will be whisked away to the next pod station. This is another good way to navigate the
roads. If you want to stop, simply
“stand” and when you are ready to travel again wait for a pod.
Moving
along the route, I became fascinated by a fortress of a home on the
mountainside. Flying high above it were
the Pride and the BDSM flags. You may
find areas along your drive that you feel you simply *must* see. This was one of them for me. The house was chic and modern in the black
and the white décor that is not uncommon.
The owner had built a large Photo studio on the property. It is one of the nicest I have seen in
world. The owner was not available for
comment.
In our
population we have many artists that work in 2D, 3D and some both. The first gallery I came to
Michael Wright Fine Art MuseumOwned by Oldaged. Spacious and well laid out, it was easy to
cam around and see the featured artist’s work.
Currently featured is Mrags Writer.
“Call me
Ishmael” crossed my mind as a huge 822 prim Blue Whale was not breaching but
completely out of the water, hovering just above it. Checking the details and what agouties do I
find is the builder? Our own Bryn Oh who creates fascinating
interpretations of animals as only a small part of her contributions to the SL
around the world.The whale and a little girl make up a piece titled ‘Imogen and
the Whale’. I run down the hill to a
glass structure of geometric trapezoids and rhombus. This is the Peace
Gallery. There are samplings from
all the biggest names in art in SL; Bryn
Oh, Cica Ghost, Igor
Ballyhoo, and more pieces. It is owned
by long time patron of the arts Thedove.rhode.
If you want to see the best of 3D art in SL do not miss this
gallery. One side note, it is a little difficult
to navigate around and you are sent back to the landing point quickly.
Along Route 12 I came upon a group that
owns large parcels on both sides of the road.
The group is the Moon Disciples.
They have filled their parcels with gothic and modern architecture. The Moon Disciples Horde is described in
Monarch Seren Mcgillivary’s profile at a close-knit family of souls ready to
embrace the dark as their solace. A
Bloodlines horde, their motto is “Under the shadow of the moon, our enemy meets
their doom.
My final
stop along Route 12 for the day was at Cartage& Storage a factory and a
service building that moves items around the continents of SL. I was initially draw to the outside attention
to detail. This location processes and
serves the GTFO community. I walked
inside and found a trove of information.
The parcel owner, Cosmo Kawabata,
arrived while I was there and offered to answer some questions as well as give
me a tour. I noticed right away that the
reception area and factory are fully staffed with realistic bots. Cosmo advised me to click on the large map of
the SL continents on the wall. When I
did the map, I could see GTFO areas by continent.
I asked Cosmo what GTFO stood for and he
laughed. I suspect many readers already
know what it means…Get The Freight Out [comes from Get The Fu$$ Out]. GTFO represents a large group of people who
are playing a game within SL. Cosmo
chose the continent of Nautilus for his terminal location noticing there are
fewer players in this area. The game is
very detailed and involves using SL transportation and your own terminal [as
small as a store front to play]. They
have game money players earn along with an entire website full of game
information. SL Enquirer will be running
a more complete article on GTFO soon [I will be in contact with Cinn Bourchard].
Cosmo is an active player of GTFO, a DJ
and happily with a wonderful
lady. He takes me to his office
within the former courthouse [turned GTFO factory]. Amid the factory is this oasis and tastefully
decorated office. He takes a seat at his
desk and I join him in a chair. He
patiently answers all my questions about GTFO, his factory and his clubs where
he DJs. He has a club on the second
floor of the factory called appropriately “The Factory’. His busier club is called The
Civilization Lounge. He plays what
he feels telling me he doesn’t play to the audience. I asked him about the genre of music he
plays. He told me music by black artists
alone with some rap and jazz.
When we
left his office to tour the facility, he pointed out a couple of the people
working as we walked across the rooms.
One woman had been making copies for a long time, he wondered what she
was copying. We walked up the stairs of
the main building into a comfortable space much like a large living room. The employee lockers were on one wall and sofas
lined the other walls. This is the area
called “The Factory” club. At the back
there is a bar and the bar tender waits patiently as we walk over to her. Cosmo reminds me ‘safety first’ and no
drinking until employees are off duty.
Next, we
walk back downstairs through the reception area to the terminal. This is a bustling busy place. Tall stacks of GTFO boxes are sitting and
waiting for shipping. In the back there
is an employee who seems to have been working forever to set up a machine. Cosmo confides that this man has been at the
task a long time. I see people in all
stages of the packing and the transport process. On one side Cosmo has built a break area for
the employees. Vending machines, table,
sink and even small Dixie cups are available for the employees. Cosmo does not miss a detail. The textures he has used are beautiful. I asked him how many days since their last
accident. He said quietly ‘ummm er 6’. Cosmo told me he was going to watch his
hometown [Cavaliers/NBA]. I told him I
liked watching sports as much as I like getting a leg wax. We laughed.
I looked for the results today from the playoffs of the game from the
previous night. Sorry Cosmo!
I have
heard residents complain about boredom in SL.
I hope I have provided an idea of interest. Try driving or walking down one of the many
routes in SL. Look, click and listen
everything you see. You may be amazed at
what you find as you explore this virtual world.
