NEW: Muscle Rising @ Animation Rising

Animations Rising is very pleased to announce a new product range: Muscle Rising. The central product of this new range is the Ultimate Fitness Center.

Have you wanted to start a small public gym, or even set one up in your own home for yourself and your friends, but didn't have the prims and/or the space for all that equipment? If so, Muscle Rising - Ultimate Fitness Center is for you!

The core component of the Ultimate Fitness Center is the mat. That is all you need to have placed permanently.

Another great feature of MR is that it is modular, and expandable. Once you have the mat, you may then select from a variety of add-on packs, as suits your needs. An add-on pack will contain (for example) a few items of workout equipment, along with all the associated animations. Simply install the add-on using the installer device and you're ready to go!

MR makes use of the tried and tested MLPV2 system. This means that pose balls are NOT linked to equipment, so it is possible to adapt them to the height of your avatar.

The mat comes with all the scripts needed to run the unit, and with a set of 9 workout animations, all of which are done on the mat: crunches and thigh exercises. This gives you a starting point on which to build with the add-on packs. Create the gym YOU want, customized to your needs.

The exercises included are:

- Crunches, legs up crunches, twisting crunches, bicycling crunches.
- Work inner left thigh, inner right thigh, our left thigh, outer right thigh, stretch inner thighs.

Add-on packs will install more workout poses and possibly equipment as well, depending on the pack you select. Any equipment will rez-on-demand, and once you are finished using it, stopping the mat will derez the equipment, so your prim count stays low. And many add-ons also feature sizzling gay sex animations too - so after your heavy workout, take a break and play with a friend. ;-)

One of the add-ons is, we believe, a first for SL: muscle worship. The name speaks for itself. ;-)

So, come down to Animations Rising, head over to the Muscle Rising room, and try the mat for yourself. As of this writing, seven add-on packs are available. We also have an ULTRA mat, which comes with all seven add-ons pre-installed, at a huge price savings.

Wishing you well,

-- Island and Miro
Owners, Muscle Rising / Animations Rising

Top 10 countdown with DJ Romeo

Beyonce's "Diva" takes a hard fall out of the Top 10. She fell so hard that she did not even show up in the Top 25 that I keep track of each week. Mary Mary's hit single, "God In Me" fell out of the Top 10 as well, but only to #13.

Deadmau5's single, "Faxing Berlin" makes a nice jump from #11 last week to finally debut in the Top 10. Stonebridge pumps out another remix, this time for Dianne Wesley's rather unimpressible song, "Ecstasy" and debuts in the Top 10 this week. Remixes for Kelly Clarkson's "My Life Would Suck Without You" have been out for quite awhile now, but the very hot remix byChriss Ortega finally makes a move into the Top 10 this week.

Look for Solange to be #1 next week. I would like to see Jipsta's remake of George Michael's "I Want Your Sex" to move quicker up the charts, but he will probably not hit the coveted spot for another two weeks (if at all). He has yet to get past Anjulie, The Pussycat Dolls and the fast approaching Kelly Clarkson.

Frolic Mills, THE BEST OF B.S

Update April 12th: Since this post so many people in the Media business have contacted inVd congratulating us on this post. We all have had the biggest laugh at Frolic Mills. Happy Easter

xox
Ammon Pera


LOOSE LIPS? "Frolic has wanted desperately to carve a niche out for himself"source says. He will lie to have it. But advertisers don't want him to continue lying to them and over charging for ads that don't turn customer profits in the end. "Shattered dreams and empty pockets" are what new designers are claiming Frolic Mills has left them. But Frolic keeps insisting it would be a great opportunity. He told our inVd ghost many lies to raise his visibility tremendously and could be a spring board for only one thing - your money. "This is why Mr. Mills deals with ladies because they are gullible," insider said.


(Scenario)An inVd ghost this afternoon contacted Mr. Mills about advertising in the Best of SL. Our inVd ghost posed as a new business owner and wanted some information about advertising. Have a look at this conversation.
Click pics to enlarge.







We would love to anyone's input as to the logistic reality of having 17,000 kiosks in world and why do you need 16 servers? Please note our inVd ghost even tried correcting him by asking him did he mean 1700 and he replied back 17,000.

Next our inVd ghost asked him whats his monthly circulation and he wasn't very comfortable with disclosing this information. Why? We thought he may be on to us at this point but for 25k per ad our inVd ghost was persistent in finding out his circulation count. He finally said over 100,000 monthly. From our personal experience and speaking to other magazine owners this just seems bogus.

Mr. Mills mentioned in his editorial this month he wishes all magazines in world the best. But what fairness is there in the over-inflation of numbers when other magazine owners play it honestly? Food for thought - If there are 65,00-80,000 active online, this would mean nearly the entirety of SL. There may be 1 million accounts logged in during a 30-day period but this number is not unique log-ins. How many times do you log in a day - especially on a laggy day?

Before anyone screams sour grapes on our part, inV was alot of fun and very successful but we closed the in-world magazine because it was just becoming too much work and SL should be fun. We know the amount of effort it takes to do a monthly in-world magazine and have the utmost respect for those who continue to do this. But people should be aware of the demographics and statistics and not simply take everything at face value at least FLAMBOYANT FROLIC MILLS. In-world magazines can be an excellent way to advertise but don't just accept numbers without serious consideration. The best way to advertise is to diversify the media you are using to get your name out there.

Ask any magazine Editor in SL about these numbers and they'll all agree FROLIC YOUR ALL B.S.

The Final Post On The Matter by Maggie Mahoney

For all the readers interested in the collapse/Runway/The Best of B.S scandal

"Frolic is Frolic - do I agree with his business practices - no - I never have and he knows that - it was not a secret." quoted from Maggie Mahoney.

I never personally knew Maggie but I wish her the very best and a speedy recovery.

DJ Romeo, Friday 7-9@ Hot 'n Hung

Mary Mary takes a hard fall to barely stay in the Top 10 this week, while Brandy's "Long Distance" and Maroon 5's "Not Falling Apart" fall out of the Top 10 altogether. This week makes room for newcomers, Jipsta and The Pussycat Dolls.

Nadia Ali raced to the #1 spot overcoming a possible rebound by Lily Allen. The crown for #1 next week will be a tough fight between Solange and Kristine W. Both women have had #1 hits recently on the dance chart ("Sandcastle Disco" for Solange and "Never" for Kristine W.), so expect it to be a photo finish. Regardless of who gets it, they will both hold the top two spots next week.

countdown post by: Dj Romeo Reardon

A Hopping Good Time!

On April 10th, Hot 'N Hung held a Second Pride fund raising party. The fun began at 3pm slt with the very sexy DJ Larz. The sim maxed out very early on at 65-70. Contests galore, sploders and an Easter egg hunt! Weeeeeeee!!! While Larz was spinning the hottest tunes in SL, party goers searched the Hot 'N Hung sim on a wild Easter egg hunt. The eggs were filled with items donated by some of the best in Second Life, including Hot 'N Hung Resorts, Animations Rising, Tees that Teaze, Reardon Ember Designs, Rod's Clothiers, Sensual Man Art Gallery and our very own inV. All of the proceeds from the sales of the egg hunt went directly to Second Pride 2009.

The party continued into the night with the amazing DJ ARS. This man knows how to lay down the tunes. We were dancing to his beat for sure! There were so many sexy lil bunnies hopping on that dance floor it was hard to keep up.


Thanks to Fauxy Shepherd for putting on a fantastic event. Hot 'N Hung was the place to be to show your Easter Pride.

Bonnie Revnik's, SHOP INVASION NIGHTMARE

Life is never dull around Bonnie Revnik! A group of men stormed her boutique late last night and threatened her with guns, she's telling pals.

The single/female designer of Revniks insists the men demanded and threatened her to show the new collection to their girlfriends, claiming the men had guns, sources say.

"Bonnie threw a fit, ordered them to leave and threatened to call Jason Feingold," said source.

"She claims there were about nine of them and she thought they were Italian mafia- types and shoved a gun to her chest and were screaming at her to get on the floor.

"Bonnie eventually said OK and talked sexy with the men convincing them it was a misunderstanding and she would be delighted to show their girlfiends the new collection. Eventually they laughed and opened some champagne and cavier. She sold a reportedly 125,000 in sales to the mafia beauties last evening and she welcomed them back anytime minus the guns." said source.

A rep Of designer Bonnie did not return inVd's IMs regarding the bizarre episode.
http://slurl.com/secondlife/Kinstall%20Hill/39/242/22


This story is fictional but Revniks is her shop in Second Life. She is self taught designer after weeks of in world gimp classes and it's amazing the beautiful designs she is creating now for big names. Ladies make sure to support new talent and show your support. Brava Bonnie.

Lamborghini dads

JUST 2 weeks after the birth of their beautiful son, Adonis Lubitsch and boyfriend Trace17 Junkers/owner of Tainted Boys/mall/condos & the Greenhouse http://slurl.com/secondlife/Nasturtium%20Island/136/43/22 are locked into a new baby battle. Adonis wants to adopt another-but partner Trace says NO-WAY!

When the Slebrity couple became parents to little Jan this past month, Adonis and Trace were "overjoyed" that their dream of becoming fathers had finally come true, an insider told inVd.

But only 2 weeks later things have changed. Adonis wants to adopt another baby. Trace doesn't want to push his nerves with another baby so soon. Adonis-however is pressuring Trace, says the insider. Adonis even sweetened the deal for Trace with a brand new custom Lamborghini. "Who says you can't have it all" Adonis told inVd. Say good bye to the term soccer moms because the Lamborghini dads have arrived.

Congrats to Adonis and Trace on the arivial of little Jan.

Club ran by third lives

SCANDAL BREWING: with overwhelming concerned emails about a nightclub that has emerged within the gay community our inVd investigating team has been out investigating in full force. "We've been all over these people and they have no clue" the inVd investigating team said followed by a giggle. A friend of one of the club owners confided to a close pal this past week: "We started a club with our alts." and sent the chat snapshot to invmagazine. The gay community won't know about our past unethical dealings if we don't attach our original names to the establishment" a insider told inVd. inVd will not mention the club under investigation at this time while we are still continuing our ongoing investigation.


I will not answer any IMs or emails concerning this investigation until after our post. Thank you

It's Always Better at the Top: SkyRanch

There are places in SL that become synonymous with good times and SkyRanch is just such a place. What started out as a really novel idea has become an integral part of SL nightlife and community. Clubs in SL can seem a dime a dozen, but SkyRanch is among those that have carved out a niche for themselves. SkyRanch’s success is due to its friendly staff and crowds, fantastic music and amazing environment. Of course, behind any success is a talented and devoted individual. For SkyRanch that individual is club owner Thorn Andel. We were fortunate to get this busy guy to slow down for a bit to tell us about his spectacular venue.


inVd: How would you describe SkyRanch?
Thorn Andel: It’s a carnival up here at SkyRanch. I guess the concept is simple really...a friendly place to have a great time; a cornucopia of sight and sound if you will. LOL. But from the beginning Sky has always pushed the boundaries of Second Life

inVd: How did you come up with the name Sky Ranch?
Thorn Andel: The “SkyRanch” part comes from an old sci-fi movie I saw as a kid…something about Space Cowboys.We have been pushing the boundaries it all the time. In fact, we did the TV or Video thing last year. We have had SL's largest profile pic taker jumbo tron. (LOL. People complained about lag ...We will be doing more of that.) Our Top dance floor is at SL's highest. The one I had at 25,000 meters was returned recently "off world." We have what is likely one of SL’s largest “Glory Holes”. LOL. That’s keeping the cyber night life hopping and we have so much more in the works.

inVd: What advice do you have for those of us with slower computers or less graphics abilities to avoid the lag…besides buying a decent computer. LOL.
Thorn Andel: Well, removing one’s hud is a place to start. Our sim actually has less lag then most. We carefully watch the amount of scripts as well as monitor lag.

inVd: What was the best event you had so far? Does the club participate in any of the nonprofit events such as Relay for Life or Pride in Second Life?
Thorn Andel: Oh sure. We promote the worthy causes and yes we will have a great “Pride” event.One of our proudest events was last year on the 10th Anniversary of the death of Matthew Shepard. SkyRanch raised 50,000 L$ for the foundation.

inVd: Is there a philosophy behind Skyranch? And when is your next event?
Thorn Andel: Our philosophy is “Just be yourself and have fun.”Our next big event is the grand Opening of our New Location.

inVd: Can you give any hints at what’s in store at your new location?
Thorn Andel: Oh sure...bigger, faster, stronger, ‘badder’.... We are bring back the Giant Bucking Cock Ride. LOL. The new lounge has a more edgy look and feel.

inVd: I know everyone is excited about the grand opening. Is there anything else would you like the readers to know?
Thorn Andel: I hope everyone comes up for the experience and returns because they enjoyed themselves.

Tadd, Miguel and the whole SkyRanch crew are really pulling all stops to bring you something unexpected and always exciting up where the air is as thin as the clothing you’ll be dropping on the dance floor. SkyRanch is a fantastic place to enjoy some of the hottest music in SL while you enjoy dancing with friends and making new ones.

Goodbye from Cracker

Greetings Everyone,

As many of you know, the economic times are not just tough around the world. Las Vegas has been especially hard hit. Unemployment has skyrocketed in this town and it is now over 10% and it is still rising. Major Hotels and Casinos have fallen on extremely tough times and I'm sure you will see many of them start to go bankrupt in the next few days and weeks. After talking to my boss on the phone last night, it is painfully apparent that I will also be losing my job in the next couple of days. There simply isn't the economic structure to support the business that I am in during these times.

I have obtained a form of employment that should keep food on the plate, for awhile anyway. However, sacrifices must be made and the choices are difficult. I have decided to have Cable TV, High Speed Internet Service and the Telephone in my house all disconnected. I will keep my cell phone. The savings will be 50-60/week and that, in essence, is my monthly car payment.

I have made many friends here and have grown very close to some. I hope that this time away will be short, but I know that things move fast in SL and everyone will move on quickly.

I am calling to have my services disconnected this morning. I don't know exactly how long it will take them to get around to turning it off, so I am saying goodbye now. It was fun, but it's now time to deal with the Real World and its cold, hard facts.

Bye bye,
Cracker

PUPPET Rawly Rousselot, Case closed

I SMELL SH*T! The Notorious Puppet Rawly Rousselot to Ginacarlo Takacs/Kmadd reportely had multiple orgasms when he received this notecard this past week. Compelled Rousselot just couldn't resist posting about it in following days. "O M G! "I need to get right on this, I see Maddox's name on it" out of breath Rousselot shouts. "You would have thought the world was crashing down the way he over reacted by a notecard" a insider said. It's a game dude.

This is the note card we both received:

[16:30] Ivy Spore: I will be bigger than Ajay. For right now I will just use him to get what I can.
[16:30] Aribella Dinzeo: Baby you are brilliant. You are the best already.
[16:30] Ivy Spore: Ajay is an idiot. I am so good at making everyone like me. Stealing shapes piece of cake with your help.
[16:31] Aribella Dinzeo: Awwws I love you! No matter what people say I will love you forever. He must be dumb to call his store Zoobong and the store Shiki fugly name.
[16:33] Aribella Dinzeo: Did you crash?
[16:33] Ivy Spore: Sorry love I was just reading InVd, the blog by Ammon. Ammon should have a sign dumbass on his forehead. Yeah the store names are dumb; I could have come up with better names. Well now that I am with Shiki I will find a way to get rid of Jura I think I will persuade Shinichi lol. I persuaded Maddox so I can persuade any of these people. They are so beneath me.
[16:34] Aribella Dinzeo: We are going to make a great team on our own. We should steal some of Juicy’s shapes. I hate her she thinks she is so all that. I would love to make money off of her creations and watch her cry
[16:33] Ivy Spore: I did steal Kmadd and Redgrave shapes, so it will be simple to take Juicy’s shapes. Whatever makes you happy baby!
[16:36] Aribella Dinzeo: Brb cuteness

Notecard 101: they can be altered.


I personally contacted the people in the note card and the sender of the note card for a snapshot of the the same IM and it couldn't be produced. I also spoke to Maddox the following day in great detail and he agreed that note card could have been easily altered.


CASE CLOSED


I 100% don't support content theft in anyway but I also don't support in slandering someones name based on a notecard.

"WIPE MY ASS" Giancarlo shouts. "Yes Giancarlo" Rawly said.

Giancarlo Takacs, RIDICULED AGIAN

GIANCARLO TAKACS has outraged inVd readers and ignited a yet another scandal for himself. The now infamous Costa Porn blog which is sending laughter around the grid is seen as a mere publicity stunt from the Costa Camp. Once it was noticed and had taken a tail spin the Obsessed Costa Rica Executive Rawly Rousselot Panicked and blamed inVd. inVd had no afflilation to the Costa Porn Blog. The repeat pattern of behavior seems to run in yearly cycles for the Costa Rica Executive. Last year at this time Takacs created a scandal saying Pride 08 was a fraud that outraged the gay community. It was a huge humilation and blow to his ego for Takacs when people started talking and he was being banned from reputable gay establishments. Rawly Rousselot/puppet to Giancarlo Takacs jumped in to try saving his failing reputation. Takacs reputation has never fully recovered and will do anything to save it these days. "Second life is all he has and plays like it's his rl" an insider said. This evening we have contacted some of the past Pride 08 committee and they agreed to publically come forward to tell their side of the scandal and corrupt actions linked to the CEO of Costa Rica Sims.


Pride is a wonderful time for the gay community to come together and make a difference. inVd hopes you take part in Pride 09 and donate as much as you can.

Ammon
Thanks for all the emails. We at inVd never take ourselves to serious and laugh at everything. It's Second life, meaning it's secondary to us. If second life wasn't fun why would we be here.

viewer discretion is advised
You just can't make this stuff up

COSTA RICA MELTDOWN-ratings & porno sink to new lows

The Costa Rica Sims apparently is in free fall-and have no choice to turn to the porn industry. We at inVd heard about this today and we are all in shock. The recession is causing Takacs to take less tasteful opportunities these days. Takacs is in desperate times and will take desperate measures" a insider said. "What would he do all day if it wasn't for sl" an ex Costa Rica Sims tenant said. "He lost reality and spends his days looking a pixel trees" another ex Costa Rica Sims Tenant said. Apparently the Costa porn is his last ditch effort. Rawly Rousselot is an absolute panic! The third world sim master builder is turning to master bater/puppet in these struggling times. He can't admit the decline in sales is part his fault and is gone on a rampage blaming everyone but himself, an insider said. Takacs told Rousselot that if they did porn it would bolster the Costa sales "just because people dislike us and our land is too expensive people love porn". What next 1 900 Costa Retard Sims 4.95 a min.

http://costaretards.blogspot.com/

I am shocked at what they would do for a bit of publicity and their usual blame game at inVd. It's not difficult to figure out. Everyone knows you need my name for hits. Giancarlo and Rawly you gave us all a great laugh this Friday. Thanks again to the Vip that sent in this parody picture. It would look fabulous on the Porn blog.

Ammon
inVd had no affiliation with the porn blog

Emails are blasting in over this post and I will be publically answering some them on the blog in the next few days.

SL is in a recession

The recession has hit many of our budgets hard this year. We have seen many sl suicides during these struggling times. We are are scaling back on shopping and land purchasing in SL and getting back to basics. Second Life for most of us fits into the entertainment category. That's usually where we cut first. People are now finding alternative ways to have fun. I recently did poll and found that almost 90% of the people I have spoken to have made drastic cuts in their SL spending. They also said though that they enjoyed the their second lives much more now and see them in a much more positive way.

Not having the money to spend has meant learning to build and do things we normally might have bought or to spend more time exploring than shopping. At the same time compared to alot of other RL activities, SL can be a an inexpensive way to have lots of fun. After all, it doesn't cost a dime to cyber. :)

One reader told me, "We sold our land and we rent now". His partner added, "We found we didn't use our home enough to keep paying the tier each month and we find renting a condo is much better for us".

As many of you know I am under contract until Dec.09 so the economy hasn't hurt me but I've been out supporting stores and donating to my favorite clubs more in these struggling times. Whatever you can give it is greatly appreciated and it all adds up. You can also join the group of your favorite designer. Many of them are runnng specials for their group members. It's a great way to stay in fashion and still save some lindens. Most of all, start exploring. You may find some fantastic new stores that is just starting out and often that means offering specials or lower prices to build their business.

Let's all work together to keep all our favorite places going and support the continued growth of our creative communities.

A definite must have


inVd recommends more sex during the recession and we highly reccommend the Porn bracelet and Porn shower for the active man for countless hours of enjoyment. Men not included with purchase.

#2 Update: Eddi Haskell admits he lied

Shortly running our second post UPDATE: EDDI HASKELL ATTACKS A U.S. VETERAN we are happy to report Haskell finally apologizes and has retracted all the slanderous lying comments made on the other blog. People are asking why (54) Eddi lied? I am not a psychiatrist. If I was I'd be offering pro bono therapy to Eddi.


inVd is very happy to have reported and followed through with updates on Doc's behalf.

Mission Accomplished
*snap* *snap*

Lets get back to some Fun on the Fly

Update:EDDI HASKELL ATTACKS A U.S. VETERAN

UPDATE: EDDI HASKELL ATTACKS A U.S. VETERAN something went on behind the scenes or should we say didn't. Following the post Doc gave Eddi time to clear the untruths and of course Eddi didn't respond. Then Doc decided to IM Eddi himself but Mr. Haskell still didn't respond to his publicly slanderous lies in another blog against Mr. Spad. This is the prime example of type of venomous character that is behind the avatar Eddi Haskell. inVd managed to get the personal IM sent to Eddi Haskell form Doc Spad following our post.


Original IM sent by Doc Spad : Eddie, just had to IM you....you said some pretty nasty ass things about me...(or so they say)....I'm a "meat and potatoes" kind of guy in RL...as I am here... the part that really got under my skin was you're questioning who I was in RL...and you challenged my honesty...that cut like a knife buddy. Eddie..we used to be friends...I was at your and Jakes bar often....so please don't say that you didn't know be before that damn contest. And to suggest that I am an alt of Ammons'....well that is just plain wrong... and you have no basis for saying that. Plus, I am much better looking...have MUCH better grammer.....and spell allot better...LOL
[21:15] Second Life: User not online - message will be stored and delivered later.
[21:29] Doc Spad: I have no beef with you....never did... and I'm sorry that all those people are saying such rude and mean things about you on the blogs......all I wanted to do...was make my case. I hope that what people are saying in those blogs isn't true about you....when we hung out at the bar....you were fun and blast to be around... and your gallery was awesome..... I'd like to remember that Eddie and hope that he is still around. For me, SL has been a place for me to connect to people in a way that has broadened my perspective, helped me be more tolerant....and appreciate people from all over the REAL world. And I truly feel that THIS world can and will become a model for us all on how we might live more peacefully in the REAL world. Why don't we both strive for that Eddie, and put this crap behind us. Well...best of luck buddy and look for the goodness in people......there's a lot of it here.....if we can just quell our own demons....

Even though Eddi didn't resond we know the truths and his cruel intentions. Most importantly it says alot about his poor character and his own selfish ideals in Second Life at other people's expense.

Since the original post we have had 17 people with similar stories against Mr. Haskell. inVd emailed each of them back and asked permission to run them at our discretion in future posts and they all agreed to yes.

Eddi Haskell attacks a U.S. Veteran

(54)EDDI HASKELL: The out-of control compulsive liar reached his all time low this past week when he openly attacked a U.S. Veteran. The comment that sent outrage in the community.

"his story that he was a Marine in Iraq simply could not be true- you cannot play Second Life on a military base, and cannot tell people in Second Life you are an intelligence officer who just happens to be in the game for a bit of fun. It did not add up". Eddi Haskell said.


Doc Spad: I appreciate your support. . The only accusation that got under my skin was made by Eddie Haskel. He surmised that I wasn't a Marine. That "there was no way I could be in Iraq and be on the Internet". Well, Eddie, you are wrong!!! I've been in the Corps for 10 years, I serve proudly. In fact, being where I was in Iraq, I was lucky to have access to broadband and lucky that I discovered SL. It was a great diversion to the boredom. In Baghdad, there were no clubs or dance bars. SL gave me the opportunity to have fun with other people in a setting that was impossible in RL. I have met plenty of other service members in SL and some of them are here because I have introduced them to our virtual world.. I only hope that they have the same positive experience that I've had, and that they're unique perspective adds to all of us in SL.
To me, my Honor and integrity are everything!
NEVER question those qualities in a marine !

Doc Spad





We thought it would be good to run the entire interview of Doc. To clear up any false allegations of the inV contest as well. This is the original interview. A irresponsible blog owner and (54) Eddi didn't even have the decency to apologize to Doc Spad. We actually sat on this interview for a little while to see if they would and of course not.

Hey Doc.

I've included a few questions below for you to answer at your own convenience about what we discussed. We intend on incorporating them into an article about the matter on the blog sometime this week. Hopefully the questions cover the crux of the matter, but if you feel I've left anything, let me know. Talk soon Doc and thanks for taking the time to assist us with this.

inVd: Hi Doc, thanks for sitting down with us. Many will recall that you were a winner of one of the InVd Centerfold Contests last year. This was a legitimate contest, with fair rules and practise employed. However, several individuals with an axe to grind have called into question the legitimacy of the contest. Those several individuals have levelled accusations directly against you and us in regards to whether you winning the centerfold was genuine or not. What are your thoughts on these derogatory assertions being made?
Doc Spad: First of all...I don't think that most people really understand what type of contest this was. Let me remind people that in this contest people paid $L1 for each vote..and more importantly, the contestants themselves could vote!! Of course I wanted friends to vote for me..using their linden, but most of my votes were paid for by myself. This was the case for all of the top contestants.
The contest was designed to attract people with their own vanity and narcissistic desire. It worked. The last of the top winners were shoving money on the boards like crazy. For me, it seemed logical that as long as I won...i'd get the money I paid in back by winning the prize. At the very end...it was just a matter of who added enough to get over the top before it ended. And it was a neck and neck horse race up to the last second or two.
I ended up spending more $L than I won...LOL...testimoney to my own vanity???

inVd: Have you contacted any of the individuals that are behind the accusations and if so, have they replied to your response?
Doc Spad: I'm enjoy SL... too much to get into the mud on this issue. I don't really know who these people are, with one exception. For that matter, most of what I've read, has been by anonymous individuals that don't have the guts to use their real name.

inVd: It's no secret that you are a US Marine serving your country and have recently served in Iraq and in the Far East. That commands the respect of everybody here at InVd and Im sure all of our loyal readers. As somebody who is serving their country as a troop and who enjoys spending some time in Second Life while away from duty, how does it feel to have these unfounded and unwarranted accusations being made about you?
Doc Spad: I appreciate your support. . The only accusation that got under my skin was made by Eddie Haskel. He surmised that I wasn't a Marine. That "there was no way I could be in Iraq and be on the Internet". Well, Eddie, you are wrong!!! I've been in the Corps for 10 years, I serve proudly. In fact, being where I was in Iraq, I was lucky to have access to broadband and lucky that I discovered SL. It was a great diversion to the boredom. In Baghdad, there were no clubs or dance bars. SL gave me the opportunity to have fun with other people in a setting that was impossible in RL.
I have met plenty of other service members in SL and some of them are here because I have introduced them to our virtual world.. I only hope that they have the same positive experience that I've had, and that they're unique perspective adds to all of us in SL.
To me, my Honor and integrity are everything!
NEVER question those qualities in a marine !

inVd: Finally to set the record straight and for the benefit of any doubt so that people can be left in no uncertain terms: was the InVd Centerfold Contest that you won last year rigged, were you given an unfair advantage of winning in any way and did you have any prior affiliation or improper contact about the contest with inVd before or during the contest?
Doc Spad: I had met Ammon at some of the bars and Edith as well. As far as any unfair advantage? No. The only unfair advantage to this contest was that people that had money to spend on it (and were crazy enough to spend it...LOL), had an advantage.
And as far as inV is concerned? From they're perspective, I'm sure thay made $L. I have no problem with them making money...every contest in SL, like this, is designed to make money for the sponsor. The only victims in this contest were people like me, that were vain enough to think they could win. We all knew we were "buying" any victory. I was just lucky enough to be the last one to throw $L into the pot before the contest board closed.

inVd: Doc, thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us and clearing the false rumors. You are a true brave hero and courageous in serving your country the way that you do. I believe that I can safely say that on behalf of the readers and staff here at inVd, we respect you and what you do tremendously and thank you for your bravery and in protecting our liberty and making the world a safer place. God Bless you.

AGED

What if you could buy age, Would you? Apparently now you can according to an email inVd received. A group of highly intelligent IT students from around the world had an idea to market AGED ALTS. According to the email they are here and there is no stopping them now. Whats the price tag on Age? They come with a hefty price tag starting at 75k-250K. They come in at a minimum of 3-12 months in age and they all come with a different ip. As fast as they are being sold they are being born maturing. Whether you approve or disapprove they are here. How will we ever know who is who? "Isn't that the beauty of our second lives not knowing" aged said in his last sentance.


inVd was sent this information by email
We don't know if it is true but it is interesting thought.

"What should Jordyn Carnel Do?"

JORDYN CARNEL: Probably should hang up his pixel shirt. These days Carnel is left embarrassed with his tail between his legs. His monthly REZ DAY PARTIES are a HUGE FLOP. Attendance levels are so LIMP and it isn't going unnoticed. What should Jordyn Carnel Do? "Maybe he should change the Party to Picnic" people are saying. Carnel is notorious for just hype and sniffing Slebrity butts. Club owners are realizing the MONTHLY REZ DAY PICNICS offer very little in promotions for themselves. "A lot of wasted time and energy" a club owner said. inVd sent a ghost to his last monthly Rez Day Picnic and they found the crowd was around 11 and they left in disappointment. "I've seen more people squeeze into a NY cab" inVd ghost #1 said laughing hysterically. "YAWNS" inVd ghost #2 said.

Please note we mispelled his last name

We do hear you!

Jason and I would personally like to thank you for the overwhelming emails to invmagazine@gmail.com. We feel if you take the time to write to us then we will also respond. Joining us this week will be Cole Sirnah helping us answer emails. If we still find ourselves overwhelmed we will be considering a third party to handle all of inVd's mail. Keep them coming we love hearing from you.

BIG PAINE THEORY

BIG PAINE IN THE ASS! Syriana Paine is every club owners worst PAINE! She's got them speeding away like professional NASCAR drivers! Her delusional diva DJ attitude is leaving club owners small crowds these days with a big price. Pain's behind the scenes club politicking are biting her in the ass and leaving her DJ schedule with large gaps. "She was driving business away," #1 club owner said. "She is shelf ass" #2 club owner added. The truth is, she is making a lot of people uncomfortable who only want to have a good time. At inVd we hear she is being fired all over the place and more is on the way. She is "only nice for one thing, the Lindens", #3 club owner wanted to finally add. These days it looks like Paine has only lint and mints in her pixel purse.

This past month inVd had paid a noobie to go and tip 25L to Paine and she didn't even say thank you. He immediately asked her to play a song and she also didn't respond. We can only hope for next time.

Approved by 3 club owners before releasing.

WE LOVE IT!! applause applause

WE NEED AIR: I and Ammon never laughed so hard in our second lives. We just wish we could give the the anonynous creator credit for his creativity and being being highly imaginative. We really hope for a sequel in the future and maybe next time a bit longer. HEHE anyone spending their days following, thinking, blogging, and making videos about us we find very chattering. Mission completed at inVd. You know you love us, admit it.

Makes SNOW SENSE

inVd WEATHER ISLAND PARTY. On March 03, Jason and I decided to throw a early spring break get together at Weather Channel Island. It was Radical dudes! 45 slebrities attended in high spirits. I spotted fashions of Redgrave, the Zoo, CDD, Valiant, Armidi and SF designs amongst the most fashionable crowd. Ice skating, sledding, snowboarding and the other other cold weather activities are a great way to get together and have a blast. By the end of the party some of us were all little sloshed and we felt like an avalanche occurred on our screens. Good times and hi5 spring breakers 09.

The CURSE OF HIMSELF

SELF DESTRUCTING! Eddi Haskell seemed to be destined for his publicly made meltdown. His social career eventually stalled, due in no small part to his escalating binge to lie and creating a path of destruction to harm Innocent people. " I was really messed up" admits Eddi, "Everybody tried to get me to stop." an insider said. Still reeling from the sudden disappearance of his ex Javier Waydelich and later calling Javier's rl job threatening him and his place of employment, being involved in the club wars, insisting on ruining his ex Jake business, revealing rl nudes of Aiddyn McCullough another ex without consent and spreading around his rl health issues forcing him to eventually leave sl, confessing to creating a hate blog against Ammon Pera and Jason Feingold, threatening the staff of inV, threatening people with the rl police in sl, spreading numerous people's rl info and list continues and continues-Eddi hit rock bottom. Friends are very concerned and don't see him ever recovering from his own self destruction. FROM HIGH TIMES TO ROCK BOTTOM!

Javier created a 3rd life shortly after his mysterious disappearance to resume a happy sl without Eddi, Javier told inV earlier this month "Eddi drove me crazy and there was no other choice but for me to leave".

A Pink Linden is born

A PINK LINDEN! is what inVd likes to call him. As many of us know who he is we'll not divulge his name in the daily. This week we had the privelage and fun of helping him turn into the sexiest Linden alive. Nothing was over looked eyes, skin, shape, hair, clothes, clothes and more clothes. We figured it's not everyday a PINK LINDEN is born who happens to be a friend. I did tell him "I like my LV luggage more but he was close." giggling.

The exclusive HOT 'n HUNG interview

On April 1st, HnH (Hot 'n Hung) Resort will be three years old. This hallmark venue for gay men's entertainment has certainly stood the test of time. We all have seen clubs come and go but HnH continues to be a place where human and non-human alike flock to have fun. Under the direction of Fauxy Shepherd, the club has remained a thriving hot-spot of activity and excitement. Fauxy's unique perspective and boundless energy are contagious. Just spending a few moments with him, you come to see how a simple gathering place has grown to become an integral part of SL's gay community. His genuine love of the community and deep desire to provide a safe haven that is both enticing and exciting are unmistakable.

This weekend though, HnH Resort has something special in store for all of us. Fauxy Shepherd has teamed up with his Master, Island Projects, co-owner of Animations Rising and reknowned sim builder, to take HnH Resort to an amazing new level. InV had the honor and fortune of touring the new sim that will be home to this landmark complex. We met with Fauxy and Island on the tropical island home to see exactly what's in store. This tropical paradise is the result of Island's painstakingly detailed rendition of Fauxy's vision with his own creative flair and touches. From the moment you enter, you feel as if you truly have entered something special.

"We wanted this to capture the true spirit of HnH - a place where there is no inhibition, where there is something for everyone," Island told us as we gazed up at the massive five-tiered waterfall that crowns this island jewel.


As we wandered through the jungle forrest, full of enticing suprises, Fauxy simplified the reason for HnH's success. "HnH is known for the friendliness of it's crowds...not a cliquey place. It's a place where gay men - human and furry - can come dance, shop, play games or just hang out and explore all the hidden surprises." From the Yiffy Forrest to the grand dungeon, it was obvious that on this island paradise anything is possible and fun is a given. From pristine beaches to crystal blue relaxing pools, the new HnH resort is more than just a nightclub: it is an all-encompassing resort full of possibilities.

On Friday (02/27), the new HnH Resort will be open to HnH VIP group members for the whole evening during a spectacular VIP Preview Party. It will be a party you won't soon forget.

Friday Entertainment includes:
3pm SLT - FLO Cale

12pm SLT - DJ Romeo Reardon

The Shops house some of the most amazing designers and creators; including...

Animations Rising, Rod's Clothier, Tees That Teeze, Bully's Tattoos & Clothing, X Tees, F2 Fashions For Men, The Golden Thorn, The Reardon Ember Collection, BigT Thrifty, b.o.i '500'3 Cothing, Gay and the City Art Shop, SK Designs, Basic Designs, JUST FOR HIM, Mirco Dinzeo Underwear, Sensual Man Art Gallery, 2Xtreme and Beck and Carter Fashions for Men

You can do a quick costume change without ever leaving the sim. Talk about convenience! Island whisked us up a tree to a fantastic treehouse with panoramic views of the island below. Just another prime example of the level of detail and thought that went into the new resort's creation.

Island paused to gaze over the railing and summed it up nicely. "To me...this is paradise." As we looked out onto what is sure to become one of the hotspots for the gay community, Island pointed out just how devoted Fauxy has been to the concept and growth of HnH. "You know, Fauxy does so much of this out of pocket. For both of us, this is about bringing people together and providing a safe place for guys to come meet new people and enjoy old friends." With an entertainment lineup like HnH's and such a stellar build, you realize that this is truly a labor of love. There will be something going on just about everyday.

Voted the best entertainment on one beach

This dynamic duo has taken one of our favorite landmarks and transformed it into an environment that you will undoubtedly love as much as we do. Come join us this weekend to take part in something amazing and find a new home away from home in a tropical island paradise that you may never want to leave. We look forward to seeing you all there!


(Special note from Fauxy Shepherd to Island Projects)
"Thank you for creating the most magnificent sim. Without you, I could NOT have done this. All of this is due to your brilliance and for that you have my undying respect, gratitude and love." - Fauxy

Marriage has a nice ring to it

On Friday February 20th, Kiki DeVinna and Larz Beresford were officially married. After an almost 3 year engagement both in and outside of SL. Kiki, owner of Fuze Productions in SL, and Larz Beresford, DJ, musician, and builder exchanged vows. They have been providing entertainment for countless events including Rasta Beach and NEX-Core, as well as crossover events with RL television including The Discovery Channel (USA) and Nest (Zurich). Kiki is also co-owner of FUZE FM, and all-request Internet radio station where Larz does live radio shows from Miami twice weekly.





First, they found a exclusive private location - Every detail was kept secure until an hour before the wedding. The long list of guests were not provided a LM until just an hour or so before the event and access to the land was limited to the private group created solely for this night. Behind the scenes. Kiki and Larz worked tirelessly for weeks for their special night - creatively transforming the site which included an exquisite church, a gorgeous pond complete with Swans, a huge reception tent and stage of marble and draped in the finest silk, and lush landscaping. and a complete fireworks display. All of this built for one nite, for one wedding. Press exclusive coverage was limited for inVd and Vain Magazine. Chantal Harvey did the videography and Jen Moonlight captured candid shots throughout the evening. Traditional wedding portraits were commissioned from Jade Collins to be captured at a later time in yet another secluded location.

A horse-drawn carriage waited outside while Rick Wake, preacher extraordinaire, performed the nuptuals in an intimate chapel and timeless design by Rizla Laval. Tears during the vows exchange turned to cheers as the newly married couple was presented after the ceremony.



It was truly a night for fashions as well. DeVinna's amazing wedding gown was designed exclusively for her by Iota Ultsch of Tres Jolie, was commissioned for an undisclosed amount. The bridesmaids gowns and Maid of Honor's gown were also designed by Iota and had that famous look and style. It was better than what you'd see on the red carpet. Nobody does that like Tres Jolie thats for sure. The groom and groomsman were dressed in the finest from Styles of Edo, named MFA's 2008 Best Male Fashion Label and recipient of Vain Magazine's 2008 Reader's Choice Award. The flower girl wore a dress created by Babydoll Stardust, owner of Babydoll Boutique.

The wedding party included Maid of Honor Dyna Diller, owner of Body Perfect, Best Man Jade Collins of Faith Photography, with Bridesmaids Amare DeCosta and Lunabeam Moonites, and Groomsman Sethe Paine and Octavian Venera. Sethe's beautiful daughter, Sofie, was the flower girl.


All music during the event was provided by Larz himself but also included a few surprises. Carah Nitely flew in from London and performed Etta James' At Last for the couple's first dance, and graciously agreed to remain on stage and perform an intimate concert for the cherished guests, making the night that much more special for all in attendance. There were also toasts and comments from the guests, recorded and played at the reception. The reception also included a menu fitting such an event, from lobster and prime rib to tuxedo strawberries and banana splits.
Larz took the helm after Carah and had the place hopping, cheering, and dancing the night away.


BOOM! A massive display of fireworks. The display of programmed and impromptu fireworks smothered the night sky and proclaimed the endless love between the couple. With guests from as far and wide as Paris, London, and Australia, some staying up till 4am and later just to be a part of this event, it was a night to remember forever. We wish Kiki and Larz the very best and a love that grows even deeper day by day.

NATALIE, calls Frolic Mills Fagg*t

Opps NATALIE in all caps. Maybe you didn't get the memo but faggot is an offensive and insulting word against gay men. Hopefully you'll learn to control those ignorant fingers because I have plenty more coming to your trailor park.

A conversation between NATALIE and her blog staff Connie

[6:35] Connie Arida: there is a thin line between love and hate
[6:36] NATALIE Ni: yes I totally agree
[6:36] Connie Arida: I hear Frolic has your pic plastered all over his bedroom wall..in RL
[6:36] NATALIE Ni: He's a faggot
[6:37] NATALIE Ni: I bet he does lol
[6:37] Connie Arida: and a bucket
[6:37] NATALIE Ni: till his mom made him take them down
[6:37] Connie Arida: lol
[6:37] NATALIE Ni: ''but moooommmmmmm''

Be careful who your speaking too because I'm a very good friend to them also. GAME OVER for you NATALIE spelled in all caps. Go take a course in etiquette and socializing. I can just imagine what Frolic says about you (lol). Is this the manners the residents of Costa Rica have?

Costa Rica sims Exec. Rawly Rousselot: BUSTED BITCH

"COSTA RETARD EXECUTIVE" Rawly Rousselot back in the news and exposed as a liar according to his own profile. This is taken from the Costa Retards executive managers profile.

"I am * A L W A Y S * busy working on a construction project; be succinct with your inquiries. My time is limited and valuable; make the most of it while you have it."

I am a:

-Custom Builder: *NOT* interested in additional work at
this time, thank you.

-Costa Rica Sims Estate Manager & Builder"

While Mr. Rousselot likes to falsely portray himself as a professional he doesn't fool anyone. What next Mr. Rousselot will you fly to France and masturbate watching me through my windows? Your obsession is going to far and is quite creepy. This was sent to me on 2/7 from the Costa Retard executive.


[2009/02/07 15:46] Rawly Rousselot: hey gurl. natalie lives at rancho palmaire, in costa rica. "lier" is actually spelled "liar", with an "a". everyone knows that jade is rather obese in rl, he showed a few ppl his rl pics before you two got together. have a nice night :)


click the picture to verify.

Maybe Mr. Rousselot should rephrase his profile to also say he is busy searching for rl information and a professional liar in his spare time. It sure doesn't look like a very good day for you, does it?.

I'll make sure to send you a headshot so you can have the best night of your life.

LUCA MIELZINAR, forever labeled wedding crasher

LUCA MIELZINAR has faced aggressive questioning about his failed attempt at crashing VirtualReality Oh (bride) & Deston Dreadlow ( groom) at their beautiful wedding that took place on Feb 14th. inVd has the exclusive chats.

A few of the comments made by Mr. Mielzinar in open chat during the ceremony using the Ammon Pera name

[15:49] Ammon Pera burps

[15:49] Ammon Pera: i lost my lip gloss :(

[15:50] Ammon Pera: i wore a dress like that when i got married as ida and annie and shania

[15:53] Ammon Pera goes through the grooms pockets

and the comments kept coming..........

inVd reports wedding guests were outraged of his juvenile behavior. When Mr. Mielzinar was approached by the wedding cordinators and security this was his exclusive IM ( pay close attention to the name he mentions).

[2009/02/14 16:44] priest: [2009/02/14 16:31] Luca Mielzinar: i was in pvte chat with rawly, nat, rocco, rob1977 and willy at the time [2009/02/14 16:31] Luca Mielzinar: rawly is the brides best friend [2009/02/14 16:31] Luca Mielzinar: take it up with them [2009/02/14 16:32] Luca Mielzinar: i was dragged there by rawly and nat [2009/02/14 16:32] Luca Mielzinar: and sat silently... because i don't know them [2009/02/14 16:32] Luca Mielzinar: so, next time u accuse people blatantly make sure u know what your oin about -- Instant message logging enabled -- [16:36] Luca Mielzinar: and no apology? [16:43] priest: youre telling me you knew who was doing it and didnt let us know so it could be stopped... no apology, you should apologize to the couple for letting it continue knowing you couldve stopped it[2009/02/14 16:44] priest: he's wrong either way lol

inVd asked Ammon Pera his own personal opinions.

[21:13] Ammon Pera: Firstly to crash any ones wedding is unfortunate. A lot of time, money and energy goes into planning a wedding by many people for their special day. As this doesn't surprise me the names who Luca mentioned were also involved, this does speaks volumes of Luca's and people he mentions. The immaturity and lack of respect to the bride and groom. My grandfather raised me with respect and values. Unfortunately he wasn't so fortunate. It's amazing how he obsesses about me (giggles). With anything in sl, I just laugh. I have a rl and sl is my fun. I don't have times for immature games and am I much to busy. I also would like to wish congratulate the bride and groom and wish them both happiness.

inVd has also learned he has been banned from the two regions and he is not welcome back. LUCA MIELZINAR, is offically named the wedding crasher.

inVd also highly recommends Rick Wake & his beautiful partner Lori Nicholas for your all your wedding arrangements. IM them in world for information & pricing.

**Please Note inVd mispelled his last name on purpose
**All the names above Costa Rica Sims managers and home owners

Grampian Falls to the Ground

inVd continues to be at the forefront of breaking news with the revelation that the once popular Grampian gay resort is now resigned to the annuls of history. The problems at Grampian first started last month when the owner of its sims, Ian Bartfeld suddenly and abruptly fired all of his key staff. This led to outrage among many residents who decided to leave Grampian as a result of the abrupt dismissal of his dedicated staff.

The Grampian sims as they currently stand: Desolate and Empty

However, a few residents remained and continued to pay their rent to the Grampian owner recently only to discover that no access was available to their homes. inVd has learned from inside sources that a request to close the Grampian sims was made this week, but a request to reopen them for 24 hours so that the residents were able to collect their objects and belongings was granted by Linden Labs to an anonymous individual who we will not be naming.

The Grampian blog has now been taken down and the sims stand empty as shown in the above picture. inVd is also privy to the fact that many Grampian residents were left distressed and in tears at the way Grampian had been abruptly closed in the manner that it was with no notice or explanation. Comments are closed for this article and we are currently talking to ex Grampian residents at this time.

More news and further details on this breaking story are coming soon. If you have been affected by the closure of Grampian and would like to tell your side of the story, then of course if you have not done so already, you can contact me (Jason Feingold) in world.

This is inVd, the leader in breaking news. We lead, while others follow.

I'd like to add to this post of Jason's. I really like Ian and am very sorry for his loss. Things happen and to me he has always been nothing but kind and I'll miss him. I hope he decides to come back without the stress and just enjoy himself. Ammon Pera

inVd's top store pick this week

Raffaello Robbiani, said to be the most eligible bachelor for ladies, is now equally desired by men. For the slebrity craving culture and fashion, the.Qube and gallery located at World of Beauty in Second Life is all the rage, insiders say. Raffaello's ultra posh gallery is also home to his new trendy mens store where according to store reps, SLebrities Romeo Reardon, Naro Nagy and the inVd staff have been seen shopping.

MUISM BOMBER JACKET, nose dives

HOLY NO HIT-ONS! Let us now pray. I think it may because you are dressing according to the Muism store pictures. "This new Muism Bomber jacket is bombing in sales, and I'm very worried for the future of Muism!" a Muism rep told inVd this morning.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, this one is more a million.

Sarco Sound Folds

Many of you will have heard and seen DJ’s from the popular Sarco Sound group. It was a group originally setup by Sarcophilus Halderman a couple of years back to include a roster of international DJ’s that would perform under the “Sarco Sound” banner. Sarco himself was the head DJ and his group spawned out many other popular DJs including Andrey Messmer, HarleyMC Homewood and Anjey Amat to name just a few. Earlier this morning, Sarco announced that he was closing his group and taking time away from SL citing RL personal issues. Sarco has subsequently deleted everybody from his group and Sarco Sound is now effectively defunct. Here is a copy of his press release that he issued this morning:

“Due to a number of reasons, I will be away from SL for an extended period of time,

Consequently,I have also taken the decision to wind-up sarco sound and friends of sarco sound

It was a bold experiment and I'm very proud of all we have achieved in the last 2 years

Unfortunately, I find it increasingly difficult to sustain things from financial, emotional and energy points of view.

If you wish to continue receiving notices for your favourite DJs I recommend you join their groups.”

What are your thoughts on the closure of Sarco Sound? Will you miss Sarco’s DJ sets? Share your thoughts and memories of Sarco Sound in the comments section and try to keep them nice!

an apology to DJfastforward Richez

inVd would like to issue an apology to DJfastforward Richez. Today it was brought to my attention the commenter spelled his name incorrectly and I couldn't find him in search. Thank you to the VIP that brought this to my attention and DJfastforward Richez has been added to the inVd ULTIMATE DJ LIST.

DONT READ THIS if you want to know

HOLY MOLY! FAUXY SHEPHERD owner of Hot 'n HUNG and ISLAND PROJECTS/owner of Animation Rising were smiling like two 2Xtreme crocodiles this evening beacuse they have something up their prim sleeves. inVd is currently working on the ultra-exclusive interview to this big SECRET and you'll be the first to read about it right here.


[2009/02/16 17:31] Ammon Pera: OMG, this is AMAZING
[2009/02/16 17:31] Fauxy Shepherd: Smiles
[2009/02/16 17:31] Island Projects: Don't tell anyone it's a secret.

Out & About in SL, with me

ARS NORTHMEAD was spotted at Redgrave early this morning. The store was packed with fans screaming "We love you Ars!" Make no mistake about-Dj Ars he can"dress up" in a heartbeat if he has too! He was in dark sunglasses and hair slicked back as he smiled and waved to adoring fans. Of course, we love it when he dresses down too. This hunk would look good in a garbage bag. Of course his fans think he would look better in nothing. We are all hoping to see that sometime.

KIKI DEVINNA was spotted using the back door of Tres Jolie http://slurl.com/secondlife/Slustleria/24/133/28 some say for the fitting for her reportedly 1 Million L wedding dress. The soon to be bride was also seen cursing out loud in her black Porsche on Feb 12th. The "Fuze fm"http://sc5.spacialnet.com:18148/ owner was freaking out she broke her nail. The valet found it in his mouth after telling her he scratched it while parking it. Luckily for the valet it wasn't her Stiletto Moody's in his mouth, that would have hurt.
http://slurl.com/secondlife/Stiletto%20Moody/43/44/35

WOLF HOFFNUNG was seen at Bubbly on Feb 16th with his new bride Tonya Petrov after a gorgeous Japanese-inspired wedding. He didn't miss a beat when a couple of RP cops busted the joint. Wolf jumped right into the RP and offered to assist in the interrogation. His brother, Cole Sirnah, broke out a hammer and wire cutters to join in the fun. No fingers were injured....that we know of.

SWAFFETTE FIREFLY was among the featured designers at a fantastic Wedding Fashions Show for Best of SL on Feb 16th. Her amazing designs received rowdy applause and this fashionista and perfectionist was allegedly so distraught over a crooked bow tie that she knocked another patron off her chair trying to reach for her diamond-studded hip flask. The patron is fine and told us in confidence that a black-eye from such a diva is quite an honor.

Gossip: Dj Greg BANNED-again

Another trendy gay establishment boots the Drama Dj

DJ Gregster Kidd is a DANGEROUS man in the gay community. He leaves drama and chaos in his wake once again this past week, inVd has heard. Reports are that all hell triggered between DJ and employer and the rumors have been circling that the DJ had a problem about where his employer advertises. It ended up the DJ was fired for, yet once again, insubordination. The following night the DJ returned in anger to his once place of employment making repetitive insults and ridicules in open chat about his former employer and his business decisions. People were screaming "You've got to Leave!" pouting, Greg didn't split easily and his former employer had no option but to place a permanent banned. Some people were quoted saying, "We are excited to see him leave!" Another said, "He will not be missed!" According to many people the DJ's past reputations and his continued presence creates chaos and puts businesses in peril. No injuries were reported that evening or abuse reports made. The DJ was reportedly shortly replaced and was officially labeled a LIABILITY.

inVd also found out this happened twice to the DJ this past week at two of trendiest gay spots in the community. No wonder they're all calling you "Banned Greg!"

Gossip: J.C on hiatus

"Jordyn Carnell' has been outed by a friend that he is a bonafide Hypocrite-and the brass is sick of dealing with his petty disagreements and infighting instigated by his own Sl delusional diva behaviour," an insider told inVd early this morning.
"Friends are hoping the hiatus of Jordyn Carnell straightens and serves as a reality check thats he's not the center of sl & and as everyone is ending the drama he continues.
"A few of Carnell's close friends said he needs a break. Friends also told inVd when he resumes "they hope he comes back with a smile on his face and without a chip on his shoulder."

Animations Rising - Happy Anniversary

Celebrations start midnight SL 7th-8th

On February 8, Animations Rising officially becomes one year old! And wow, what a year it has been!

Two men got together and turned a small art gallery, "The Penguin Bar", into a small store called "The Penguin Bar Animations". That store sold animations, of course, and little else. The two men were Island Projects and Miro Collas.

As name of the store began to spread, more products were added and the store grew. Fast. It outgrew the initial plot, and subsequent parcels which we acquired to get more room, till finally, the big step was taken: a whole SIM, Phoenix Rising. ( Orginal Name of Sim)

Now known as Animations Rising, both the business and the SIM, we continued to expand, adding now new product lines to our offering: Living Light, then silks, and piercings - and throughout, constantly renovating improving, growing.

So this year, on February 7 and 8, we want to celebrate, and we would like to say thank you to those who have been our customers all this time. Our group has just surpassed 900 members, which we feel is pretty amazing!

So, at midnight on February 7, all Rising Silks will go on sale, at 30% off! And during the day of February 8, we will be giving out gift cards at random! As well stop in and get your "VALENTINES SILK" FREE to GROUP MEMBERS!

Also, we will be launching a new product line at this time: "Rising Silks - Tribal Series". As the name suggests, these outfits are designed with a distinctly tribal feel to them. They will be on sale in a newly designed area to one end of the main store. (Island really outdid himself in creating this area!)

So, join us please, February 7 to 8, help us celebrate one year of Animations Rising!

With thanks,
-- Island and Miro

Eddi Haskell posing as Harry N. Abrams

Harry N. Abrams is the preeminent American publisher of high-quality art and illustrated books in real life. Eddi Haskell's sl is similar but once again (54)Eddi Haskell is desperate enough to try to make people believe he is now a famous publisher in our second lives. We don't do rl information in the daily but we do know he is telling fibs again. Good try maybe it would be believable if you could write and take a good picture in second life.

GET SHAGGED - Inteview with Shyayn Lusch

Designers often are more than simply creative people. These often eclectic and unique individualists are the sort of folk for whom creativity is a natural extension of their selves. Shyayn Lusch is one such designer. Her creations under the label SHAG are fast becoming a staple adornment for fashionable living. This outspoken firebrand is the sort of person whose strong personality is both overwhelming and inviting. She is a force to be reckoned with who is still approachable and it is this juxtaposition of strength and comfort that makes SHAG creations unique. I had the pleasure of meeting up with Shyayn on a building platform surrounded by the odds and ends that reflect the dynamic flow of a driven creator. Shyayn was wearing an intricate and sexy kimono-inspired ensemble.

Shyayn Lusch: I think I was feeling a bit Ninja...well, Diva Ninja

To get into character, I tossed on my best kimono and sat down with Shyayn around a fire pit and was immediately comfortable as she told me about how she got her feet wet in Second Life.

Shyayn Lusch: Well, I received an e-mail from a good friend that said, "Did you get my e-mails RE: Second Life?" I had been deleting what I'd assumed was porno spam from one Calista Bing for weeks. A week later, Shyayn Lusch was born.

inV: So when you first logged in what did you think?
Shyayn Lusch: Well, it was quite horrible actually....I had no clue what to do. My friend refused to friend me and passed me some LMs to a few freebie places and told me to fix myself as best I could. So I stumbled around to the freebie places for a few days....and managed to get some freebie gear on. It was baptism by fire. She said I had to learn for myself. Honestly, it was the best thing she could have done. Otherwise, I never would have started learning the interface or anything.

Shyayn Lusch: Well, after a few days at the freebie places she offers me a teleport to a club. I was surrounded by avatars with fancy hair, skins, etc. She took one look at me and told me I was a hot mess....and gave me $L700. She said I was only to spend that money on prim hair and left it at that. I quickly learned how to buy lindens to acquire a fancy beach-front property, replete with dolphin.
inV: It seems you conquered the "hot mess" to say the least.
(Shyayn Lusch blushes.)
Shyayn Lusch: Thank you, kind sir.
inV: Once you got yourself sorted, what inspired you to build?
Shyayn Lusch: One of my hobbies early on was modifying and decorating my virtual homes. I liked a lot of the homes on the market, but nothing seemed quite what I wanted....so I learned to modify and re-texture and so forth. I got more interested in making something that was EXACTLY what I wanted as time passed. One day I rolled over to a sandbox and tried to build this couch that I saw somewhere that I wanted to have in SL. I still have it....

Shyayn didn’t blink twice when I asked to see her first creation. While she referred to it as another “hot mess”, it seemed quite well done to me. The black sofa was well thought out and very modern, better than some I’ve seen for sale.

Shyayn Lusch: I was so upset and discouraged that I didn't pick up a prim for months. But I was determined. I started to try to build the couch again a number of months later. I'll show you what came out.

The revamped build she rezzed was certainly an improvement despite having started off well in my opinion. The textures were phenomenal and blended perfectly together to create a striking piece you just wanted to curl up on.

Shyayn Lusch: I have no training in graphic art or 3-D applications other than what I learned here. The first time I opened Photoshop it scared the crap out of me.
inV: How did you come to decide to open up your own store?
Shyayn Lusch: Well, I was forced to....by a friend. I kept building all of this stuff....and I always that it was terrible. I was and still am my own worst critic. Building allowed me to express a creative side of myself.....so I was VERY hesitant to put anything out there. So I set up my first store on a 4,096 prim parcel that I thought I would NEVER fill. In a month or so it was so full that it looked like a flea market....
inV: Obviously you began to see others enjoyed them too?
Shyayn Lusch: Yes, I found that people liked some of the things I made and I was incredibly flattered. But opening the first store took my building to a whole new level....I was on fire.


inV: What inspired the name "SHAG"?
(Shyayn Lusch laughs and tries to think about the name "SHAG.")
Shyayn Lusch: The same friend that forced me to open my first store apparently decided that it was time to do some restructuring... I had started building entire rooms....that were all over my build platform. I was, as before, refusing to put them out there for some reason. One of our mutual friends came over and gave me a proper scolding for not having it all for sale. So we talked about a new store....and started thinking up potential names, including “SHAG”. I delayed as long as I could....and made every excuse. It was starting to look like some type of freakish doll house up here.
(Shyayn Lusch laughs)
Shyayn Lusch: So one day I log in to a group invitation from my friend to the group ~Shag~. And so, that is now "SHAG" was born. I wish I had some sexy or provocative story to tell you about how my creations came to bear the name "SHAG," but that's it.

Shyayn laughed, but the true value of that story is that no one makes it alone. Even with the most immense talent, we require the support of true friends to find our way. Shyayn is nonetheless very much her own person and SHAG is very much a reflection of the woman behind the creations

inV: I don't think you would be offended when I say that you are certainly one tough bitch. :P SHAG seems to have so much of your personality in it.
Shyayn Lusch: I've always been outspoken and willing to push the envelope, so something as provocative as "SHAG" was fine by me.

inV: is outspoken and pushing the limits what you would say is the overall feel in your designs?
Shyayn Lusch: To be sure, my friend saw that in me and aptly named my brand. I know that in creating things and putting my name on them I push myself. I push myself to build things that are a challenge for me. I push myself to make them well-crafted and utilitarian. To me, my creations scream "SHYAYN." But most people say, "OMG, I want this furniture in RL." (After asking if I really did "all of this" myself.) I take that as a compliment.... I create the things that I want.... I want larger-than-life beds made from rich fabrics and expensive wood.

inV: I mean so many designers just borrow from RL or focus on utility or one aspect but you really try to create a mood
Shyayn Lusch: Precisely.... When I started I would build one piece....a couch or sofa. But then I would think, "I really want to make a room that feels like X." I strive to make things that are useful for the way people interact and live in SL.

inV: That must be a challenge...I mean "living" in SL has is own design needs
Shyayn Lusch: To me, if a particular room or space is not conducive to social interaction and does not generate a "good feel" or a place where people want to stop and talk....then it's useless. The levels of intimacy created by particular rooms are different, of course. Or, the levels of intimacy that I attempt to create, I should say.

inV: What are some things you are looking to do in the near future?
Shyayn Lusch: Well, in the near future I'm hoping to start building fully-furnished skyboxes and pre-fabs. But really, I try my hand at everything from hair and jewelry to palm trees.
inV: I can't wait to see those. I imagine doing pre-fabs would be like going full-circle for you, having started modifying your home
Shyayn Lusch nods. Exactly. It's the most natural evolution for me...to be sure.

inV: what sort of advice would you give a noob who just has landed into SL?
Shyayn Lusch: Learn how to do as much as you can on your own and ask for help only when you NEED it. I guess that could be applied to people just starting out their creations too. I could write a book on what-to-tell-a-noob, but that's it, in short. Like I said, Ms. Calista Bing did me a favor my throwing me to the wolves.
inV: It certainly lets you know if you have the stuff to make it in here
Shyayn Lusch: Exactly. She left me to fend for myself. And I learned A LOT in the process.


Shyayn certainly has learned a lot and it’s easy to see the result of that experience in the amazing creations that are displayed in her flagship store, SHAG. Her inspired designs are sure to help you create just the look and feel in your home to express your own individuality. If you haven’t had the opportunity to visit SHAG, be sure to drop by and check out one of SL’s finest up-and-coming creators. Shyayn is constantly expanding and there is always something new and exciting to see.

Interview by Cole Sirnah

Eddi Haskell Wields his Knife at inVd

Some of you will be aware that a blog was setup last week with the sole objective of causing harm, alarm and distress to the various members of staff here at inVd. The blog has a pink background and contains an abundance of postings containing lunatic rants and hurls of abuse at our members of staff. When the blog was originally setup; we at our inVd offices found the rants to be rather amusing and over the top. We laugh most things off because we don’t take ourselves too seriously and appreciate good humor. However, more recently, the blog’s insane rantings have turned more sinister, vicious and evil.

An excerpt taken from Eddi Haskell's obsessed blog

Yesterday, our Editor in Chief gained concrete evidence that the man behind the obsessively insane blog is none other than the man behind the Eddi Haskell avatar. We actually did suspect it was Eddi, but we weren’t in possession of proof until yesterday. In addition to Eddi Haskell’s vicious attacks on most of the inVd members of staff, he’s also been spending most of his free time setting up new alts such as “ammon gossipgirl” and “jasonfeingold ghost.” He introduced these alts in an effort to harass us here at inVd and to grief sims such as Boots Beach to spread his vile hatred and to just generally make a dire nuisance of himself.

In the space of one week: Eddi Haskell under the guise of other alts and various noms de plume he has contributed to the following harassment:

1) Posted sick and disgusting images of people wielding blood dripping knives in an attempt to harm, alarm, cause fear and distress to various members of inVd’s staff;
2) Made attacks on MTD1952 Timeless about his appearance and more repugnantly, Eddi has made attempts to reveal a certain member of inVds staff RL information. He has a known history of doing this to various other people;
3) He has made crazy and delusional accusations and repulsive rants claiming Demerick and I are mentally ill and Eddi has spent considerable time writing up wacked and jumped up diatribe to that effect;
4) He has made countless vicious and abhorrent characterizations of our Editor-in-Chief, Ammon Pera in an attempt to inflict mass harassment and has attempted to spread his hatred by griefing sims and shouting out the url of his revolting blog.
5) He has made unfounded, wild and baseless accusations that we have rigged contests in the past and has published images of animals in distress and conveys images of Nuns in a disparaging fashion.

The Eddi Haskell alt pictured above, picture taken by him

The list continues further, but we won’t exhaust describing all of his maniacal actions here. So why are we reporting this now? Well, at first we laughed it off and thought it was somebody who obviously just had too much free time on his hands and was clearly very bored.

However, Eddi’s harassment has grown increasingly relentless and entirely reprehensible to the stage that we are actually gravely concerned about his well being and mental state of health. His actions are extremely worrying and if you happen to know Eddi Haskell or have or did consider him as a personal friend, like some of us here at inVd once did to, then encourage him to seek some professional medical help. Very evidently, he needs it and he needs to hear it from somebody who he will listen to and it’s not likely to be from us considering his deranged and obsessive state of mind.

[19:03] Ryce Skytower: cut it out now
[19:03] Ryce Skytower: you extend it
[19:03] Ryce Skytower: your in trouble
[19:04] Ryce Skytower: the blog will stop if you stop your harassment
[19:04] Ryce Skytower: bye!

N.B. Comments are closed on this post.

Dum, Dum, Dee, Dum

This post has a meaningless title, like the sturm und drang of the still-clanging bells of blog vs. blog and personality vs. personality "journalism" that's almost become a plague to some of us.

Personal attacks on blog-sites, critical of my wardrobe, my choice of shoes, my association with InVogue, all of which are part of an online "game" that I play, called "Second Life". Well, whoop-de-fookin'-doo! Some folks have waaaaay too much time on their hands, methinks.

What fascinates me is the marginal literacy of the participants in all this garbage, and its scant resemblance to anything remotely identifiable as "journalism", which is the only reason I ever penned a comment or blog post for InVogue. A genuine interest in writing, a joy in participating in the SL gay community, some blatant self-interest in promoting my efforts as a dancer/host/entertainer in the club scene, and yes, my own admitted human weakness as an indefatigable "attention whore" made me reach out a bit, take a risk, and write upon these pages, in the hopes someone, somewhere, would find my meanderings amusing, at least, and thought-provoking, at best.

I have consciously and determinedly refrained from responding to any of the ongoing "wars" between certain blogsters and factions who seem to have some sort of sick, childish agenda and incredibly overinflated self-images which drive them to initiate social warfare rather than social interchange, in these venues.

Here's a little bit of Second Life lore, for ya. Anyone ever visit "Waterside", and listen to the open voice chat there? Youngsters, mostly, incredibly impressed with themselves, unabashedly critical of everyone and everything around them, their speech and mannerisms thoroughly suffused with vapid criticism, cynicism, scorn, hatred, disrespect, foul language, repeated use of the words "nigger" and "fag" as offhand adjectives to describe even their friends and, presumably, "peers".

It's a sure-fire way to bring on a bout of depression, just listening to these complete wastes of good air, maundering away about how cool they are and how useless/ugly/stupid/nigger/fag/dipshit/bonehead/gay everyone around them is. One wonders why they go on breathing? Suicide would seem a much more intelligent act, given their purported view of the world, but for one thing; they're young, dumb, have never experienced hardship, have never fought beside a dear friend and watched him die, have never worked hard for anything in their privileged and "entitled" existence, have never invested one iota of themselves in the interest of another human being, much less sacrificed anything for the welfare of another. And so, they must be forgiven, for allowing their inexperience and complete lack of substance to escape their filthy little mouths, so easily.

I claim no special gift of 'wisdom' nor superiority of intellect, here; but I've lived a long time upon this earth, comparatively, and seen some pretty incredible bits of history go down, right before my eyes, some of which I found myself smack dab in the middle of, much to my dismay, or my joy, or my deep, deep sadness.

So you see, it's easy for me to sit back and smile and nod, when the proverbial excrement hits the oscillator, and "who flung poo" becomes more important than who created beauty, or did a kindness to another, or expended great effort to reach a goal, or even just emulated a shoe design in digital form, presenting a target for a jealous or petty or inferiority-plagued "competitor's" crosshairs.

My beautiful fellow Second Life residents, your avatars are just pixel-dolls, and real life is much, much more important than anything that happens there, but still the attitudes and mannerisms that permeate your Second-Life persona are, in some ways, reflections of what's inside the human being at the keyboard. Think a bit, choose to portray what's of value to you, (if anything), and if acrimony, hate, exploitation, and greed are your pastimes, then by all means, bring them along with you, to render our Second Life experience more "real", for these are parts of any world in which human beings walk.

Some will choose to aspire to better things, and there will be places, activities, and beauty left by their minds and hands, here in Second Life, for us all to enjoy. I swing my cam toward the beauty, kill my sound and shut my eyes to the ugliness and fear and immaturity, and enjoy every spare moment I can be "in-world". Don't you?

New Releases @ 2Xtreme

For real life pet lovers, having a pet in-world adds to the Second Life experience. 2Xtreme's Tunes Menes creates exotic pets that bring our real pets in to the metaverse or provide us with the opportunity to adopt a pet we would never have access to in real life.

The Red and Blue Macaw set offers two parrots to spice up any Second Life environment. Each bird is well textured with realistic animations. Setup is simple and allows the owner to create three points for each parrot to fly between. Additionally, the birds come with special feeding poles and droppable apples to feed them. A parrot tree is also included.

Those who have owned birds will appreciate the value of the feature allowing 2Xtreme's birds to be muted or their volume to be turned down. With little effort, we can be spared in-world what is arguably the worst part of having a bird for a real life pet--the constant squawking early in the morning when sleeping in is a necessity.

New @ Zooby's the most realistic pets in sl

A major challenge to Second Life creators is bringing our favorite real world items into our virtual setting. Zooby's is known for creating quality realistic animals to us. Their Ultimate Gray Tabby Cat is another fine example of the company's attention to detail and scripting skills.

One minute with the richly textured kitty had me marvelling at how high quality it is. Not only do the finely sculptured features and life-like actions add to the animal, it also breathes. The usual kitty sounds of purring and mewing serve as reminders that kitty is occupying the world and a variety of options keep the tabby fun.



The tabby comes with several accessories, including a ball, bed and even a litter box. Water and food dishes provide the cat with basic nourishment and a toy worn by the owner offers Av/kitty interaction.

Cat lovers are sure to enjoy the presence of the Ultimate Zooby Gray Tabby and the best part is, even though kitty uses it, the litter box never needs to be cleaned.

Wash & Wear @ Muism /gap

Since Migi Voom likes to send out meaningless note cards of my conversation to other blogs ( Tacky). Which took place almost a year ago. I thought I would comment on this weeks style at Muism.


When I saw this I immediately thought of the after Christmas clearance bin at the Gap http://www.gap.com/. In real life this outfit would be perfect for a Sunday afternoon running errands for any woman. Maybe picking up the weekly dry cleaning, raking the leaves, pottery class or brushing the dog. Did she forget this is Sl we don't have errands. If you like looking like a kindergarten teacher this outfit would be perfect. Just don't expect prince charming Imming you in a club or any gay guy saying you look fabulous.

If you want people to consider you a top fashion designer your going to have to do better than this drab sweater.

Club Vision Minbari by Pierrick Lubitsch

I’ve always been present in SL’s nightlife events: at first, I was just a dance floor addict, but I was soon to become an active part of the stage…because I’ve always considered my Second Life as a non-stop party. I hosted the famous club’s parties for 8 months! I also hosted parties and became an artistic advisor in various places: the Koola Club and many others. So when Johan Garfield – owner of Club Vision Minbari and friend of mine – asked me to become his business partner and resident VJ on a brand new concept of an SL club, I didn’t hesitate a single second to join the crew.



We’ve been opened since mid-December and we’re witnessing a huge success though we invested very few money in advertisement and promo. During our pre-launch parties, we were using the Club as a recreational location designed to entertain Minbari residents only. The first weeks were meant to be a test: we needed to be sure that Club Vision could find it’s place among the many clubs in SL and what I can say today is that we’re doing great as a complementary European night club for fun and premium events. Club Vision is now opened to all SL residents.



We’re already having a lot of VIP guests enjoying this mix of music and videos in a relaxed and ‘without pretention’ atmosphere and we hope many new guests will come and discover this original and amazing venue. We have regular schedules for our European parties and VJ Johan, VJ Lit and I are setting the dance floor on fire everyday – except Mondays – from 22.00 CET (1.00 pm SLT) to midnight (and more and more often later!).



On Sundays, we also have our very own special event, the Club Vision Gay Tea Dance, created to make a tribute to the 80’s and 90’s GTDs in famous Parisian clubs like Le Palace, Le Queen or Les Bains-Douches, inspired themselves by "Sundays at Studio 54", which catered to a US gay clientèle. We’re also planning to house a few ‘unexpected events’ on a regular basis, but this is a surprise!

Various personalities in the art, entertainment and fashion of SL’s world are pushing us for turning Club Vision into a trendy disco, including the inV Daily crew! Many famous SL DJs, who happen to be my friends, have been very supportive lately and are strongly encouraging us. Keeping the spirit of international gay clubs in mind, our parties are all about fun, music and glamour. Every evening brings disco music, gay entertainment, a bunch of stupendous video-clips and a psychedelic visual experience.

During our theme parties, our guests are encouraged to dress up to the theme. Hosting cheesy music and displaying hot videos on wide screens all over a multi colored and ever-changing environment, we love to bring back to life the feel of the 70s, 80s, 90s and we also release recent hits in a state-of-the-Art ambience. Club Vision Minbari has some fab things planned for the SL audience in 2009, beginning this month. But January 2009 is just the beginning! So stay tuned and see you soon on the dance floor! Feel free to IM me or Johan Garfield for further information

Neko is a distinctive style in Second Life that has grown by leaps and bounds. There is something alluring and definitely sensual about the vision of a Neko boy or girl curled up in your lap demanding petting that you are just all too willing to give. If you're one of those seductive creatures or just curious what it would be like to flick your tail in admiration of your own beauty then TWISTED & SPOILED has something new for you. The NEKO BITS line is an amazing new line of Neko products for the kitty in all of us. The whimsical T&S Neko ears go perfectly with the T&S Brad hair in 30 different shades. The left ear is pierced with a gothic charm that matches both the Neko Bits Necklace and Star Belt. The stunningly crafted Necklace and Star Belt are the perfect accessory for any look, human or Neko. Like the ears and hair, the T&S Neko tail is textured stunningly to look as soft as silk. Even the most finicky Persian would glare with envy. The tail is animated and menu driven and responds to your touch or the touch of a new admirer. Of course what mouser would be seen without the Spiked Fur Hunting boots. These fuzzy, sexy boots have just the right amount of fun and frisk. TWISTED & SPOILED will be releasing these amazing products on Sunday. Bring out your inner kitten and be sure to check out these skillfully crafted new designs from TWISTED & SPOILED.

Juicy ~by Cienega Soon @ Misali

http://cienegasoon.blogspot.com/2009/01/complete-juicy-sometimes-all-plans-you.html
The complete
Juicy!

Sometimes all the plans you make, make a turn in a direction you weren't expecting, hoping for ... but not expecting.

Juicy is two galleries, the guest artist exhibit gallery, Juicy, and the main Castle Gallery, both now on the sim Misali. What a beautiful place.

Poison water, dark skys and my own home made castle.

A breath of fresh air. No clothing signs in the sky and no slingo shouts flooding the local chat.

Come see the grounds enjoy the mood of juicy. It may storm now and then as rain is always in my forcast. But be forwarned ... dont drink the water no matter how juicy you think it is ... its Poison, yumm my kind of poison. along with the mood music come chill.

You will find teleports throught the grounds to get around. They are somewhat hidden with a fern or two as to not spoil photos should you choose to shoot.

The Castle main Gallery has two floors. The main gallery will feature my newest works and the second floor matains the popular pieces that still please visiting collectors.

At the moment my Juicy Gallery is located on the sim but up at 500m. I am building its new location at ground level this week. Juicy Gallery is now exhibiting sabra Hemingways new works. She will be leaving at the end of the month. I look forward to seeing her work showing up in many galleries and in private collections across the grid.

Juicy Gallery will continue to be a place for New SL Artists to showcase their talents. I will be watching for exciting and intriguing new artists to invite to Juicy each month.

Thank you to all that visited my Castle Valeriya Artist Gallery over the last two years. I promise Juicy will be a place for visits and photos in a dark sort of friendly mood.(still a bit under construction, but open)

Come see... but dont dirnk the pretty water *evil grin*
