Hi everyone! I just want to offer a few small shop rentals for FREE at Mermaid's Cove and let you know I have a Discovery shop too, where you can share your LMs to your grids and regions, also for free! Please come visit, the tpers are at the landing! Check it out! The shops are small but perfect for vendors (no monetary system on OSG so freebies are welcome)!

Our next release to the Homelandz Public Library is a classic rather short novel that is a gripping and touching tale of 2 unlikely traveling companions, looking for work, and a piece of the American Dream. I highly recommend the modern movie remake of the black and white classic as well. The newer one features Gary Sinise as George, and John Malkovich as Lenny.

"George...tell me about da rabbits?"

Of Mice and Men is a 1937 novella written by American author John Steinbeck. It describes the experiences of George Milton and Lennie Small, two displaced migrant ranch workers, as they move from place to place in California, searching for jobs during the Great Depression.

Steinbeck based the novella on his own experiences as a teenager working alongside migrant farm workers in the 1910s, before the arrival of the Okies whom he would describe in his novel The Grapes of Wrath. The title is taken from Robert Burns' poem "To a Mouse": "The best laid schemes o' mice an' men / Gang aft agley" ("The best-laid plans of mice and men / Often go awry").

Although the book is taught in many schools, Of Mice and Men has been a frequent target of censorship and book bans for vulgarity and for what some consider offensive and racist language. Consequently, it appears on the American Library Association's list of the Most Challenged Books of the 21st Century.

Now that i am back from my vacation and recovering from getting sick, I am working on a new project. When I was on the Cruise ship, I loved the spa so much I wanted to incorporate it into vb. The spa will be at Meditation Gardens. It will have some Saunas, therapy pools, ice room as well as massage rooms and the wellness pods will be moved into the spa as well.

Die Legende von Queens of the Stone Age: Eine Biografie

Stell dir vor, die erbarmungslose Hitze der kalifornischen Wüste brennt dir auf die Haut, während der Sand unter deinen Stiefeln knirscht. Aus dieser unwirtlichen Landschaft, geformt von glühendem Fels und der unendlichen Weite des Himmels, erhob sich Ende der 90er-Jahre eine musikalische Urgewalt, die das Rock-Genre für immer prägen sollte: Queens of the Stone Age. Eine Band, die nicht nur Töne formte, sondern die Seele des Desert Rock destillierte und sie in eine neue, düstere und doch unwiderstehlich groovende Form goss. Angeführt von dem charismatischen und oft undurchsichtigen Josh Homme, begannen sie einen Kreuzzug gegen musikalische Konventionen, zogen eine Schneise der Verwüstung durch die Hörgewohnheiten und hinterließen ein Erbe, das so monolithisch ist wie die Felsen, aus denen sie einst krochen. Ihre Musik ist ein Cocktail aus treibenden Riffs, hypnotischen Rhythmen und Hommes unverwechselbarem Gesang – eine Mischung, die gleichermaßen betäubt und elektrisiert, wie ein Kaktusstachel, der tief ins Fleisch dringt, nur um ein Feuer in deinen Venen zu entzünden. Dies ist die Geschichte einer Band, die sich weigerte, sich den Erwartungen zu beugen, und stattdessen ihre eigene, raue und unvergessliche Legende schmiedete.

Contributor Board @ Mobius Grid
Since this is the most relevant platform for OpenSim I can find, I'm going to start posting here just to give my native grid some love.

hop://main.mobiusgrid.us:80/Green Hill Zone/873/790/22

I helped script a contributor board for anybody who visits. You can now see if any staff member is online at the time, their role within the grid, and have an option to tip any of them through gloebits or PayPal (if you feel like it, by no means do we expect anything)!

In future I'll be posting more about the things I make for Mobius Grid!

You can find me on there through the accounts Luminalore Resident or Akila Mobian. See ya!
