After much consideration, Ezra decided to change the name of the shop from Odds & Ends to Antiques & Collectables. Set up like a neatly organized antique store this shop boasts a lot of really cute items for you to use in the construction and design of your region. While you're visiting Ezra's shop, be sure to go around the mall and visit our many other wonderful vendor's shops including Ares Gizmos, Stuff n Things, Creations by Tainted Angel, Fall's For You (Animesh people), Heart Of The Matter Boutique, Indigo's Market & Boutique, Thor's Forge and a whole mall full of stuff made by yours truly as well as a large collection of items from all over open sim. Blessings & Much Love, Lavia.

Calling all artists, both seasoned and emerging! Join us for an exciting opportunity to showcase your creativity. We can't wait to see the amazing works you produce under this captivating theme. Ladies, start planning your outfits for the ball—it's going to be a fantastic event with a touch of magic!

We're thrilled to announce a new region to the gallery dedicated to special projects. The first installation will be a collaborative masterpiece by beloved visual and audio artists. Witness how they transform the space into something extraordinary!
Additionally, we've opened another region connected to the gallery, designed for creating art, networking, and collaboration. Simply reach out to me to join this vibrant community and bring your artistic visions to life. Both regions are accessible by raft from the Art Gallery grounds.

Please note, the Gallery is now on a new grid. Old landmarks won't work, so discard them and pick up a new one. At the landing point and within the gallery, you'll find a sign you can click for this ad and a new landmark. You will also need to rejoin the group. Please see Star to be put in the appropriate role.
Many heartfelt thanks for the continued support for Le Beau Retrouve.

So, what are you dreaming of?

Hello dear friends, I wanted to invite all of you to the opening of the exhibition that presents Art & Friends and the artists who do excellent creative work.
Friday the 28th at 12 noon. Grid Time

GermanWorldGrid = virtualvistametaverse.com
Unter dem Vowand, das Germanworldgrid technich zu verbessern , wurde dieses Grid eingestampft und läuft jetzt unter dem Namen * virtualvistametaverse.com (kurz VVM)*
ABER: einen Grid-Namen kann man ändern, den schlechten Character des Owners und seiner Cyber-Ehefrau nicht. Mick Florido besaß das *Germanworldgrid*, eines der erfolgreichsten deutschen Grids, bis seine Cyber-Ehefrau Emma Florido kam, die unter Verfolgungswahn leidet.
Unter ihrem Einfluß wurden zahlreiche langjährige Member gemobbt, verleumdet, raus geekelt und verbannnt. Als Krönung wurden einige dieser Member in den TOS namentlich genannt sowie die fadenscheinigen Gründe, die zu dieser Verbannung führten. (Nachzu lesen in einer Gruppe bei Facebook)
Als *EmmaMercury* lief sie in SL jeder Hose nach, die sie jetzt in Opensim gefunden hat. Sie zerstörte eine gut funktionierende Gemeinschaft, die jetzt in alle Winde zerstreut ist.
In dieses neue Grid kommen nur neue Member auf Empfehlung, die außerdem u.a. unterschreiben müssen, mit keinem der ehemaligen Member in Kontakt zu treten.
Ich empfehle Emma Florido einen sehr guten Psychiater.
GermanWorldGrid = virtualvistametaverse.com
Under the pretense of technically improving the Germanworldgrid, this grid was stamped and now runs under the name * virtualvistametaverse.com (VVM for short) *
BUT: You can change a grid name, but not the bad character of the owner and his cyber wife. Mick Florido owned the *Germanworldgrid*, one of the most successful German grids, until his cyber-wife Emma Florido arrived, who suffers from paranoia.
Under their influence, numerous long-standing members were bullied, slandered, kicked out and banished. To top it off, some of these members were named in the TOS, as well as the flimsy reasons leading to this banishment. (You can read it in a group on Facebook)
As *EmmaMercury* she ran after every pair of pants in SL that she has now found in Opensim. It destroyed a well-functioning community that is now scattered to the four winds.
In this new grid, only new members come through recommendations, who also have to sign, among other things, and not come into contact with any of the former members.
I recommend Emma Florido, a very good psychiatrist.

At Masala Al Kohav Mall something small but very useful, a wall and window set. One wall has the window already installed and is mesh, the single window is Mesh but the wall is simple prim The texture is rustic and can be modified to whatever texture you like and so can the window. These are in our "Building Supplies" department at the mall and they're CMT just for you. I will be making more building supplies available as I create them. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

Thanks to the AMAZING Firestorm and OPENSIM NGC team (and a bit of work from us!) our whole grid is now running with PBR textures and terrains. IN fact this image doesn't use PBR materials, just the standard texturing. Wow.

Discoverygrid running entirely on OpenSim NGC 8940 dotnet8. Massive improvement over previous mono release and faster than core's dotnet release. Will share the improvements with them. Meanwhile, testing the region for this weekend's 8th anniversary party,m airshows, and pyromusical. 80 bots, 80 sound HUDs, lots of aircraft.

I've created a new group to show solidarity with anti-fascism and opposition to other hate groups and individuals. No heavy deal, you don't have to do anything to show your solidarity other than joining the group, and maybe, if you feel you can, displaying the logo on your region or in your club to show that hate groups and anyone associated with them are not welcome.

Obviously those who want to get a little more involved are more than welcome to do so, such as arranging events with a prominent anti-fascist message, even if it's only displaying the logo on promotional materials, to much more ambitious things such as art displays that highlight the dangers of the extreme-right.

To remove all doubt, fascists and their fellow-travellers, (Trumpists, Faragists, Lepenists etc are not welcome! Prospective members are vetted and are subject to approval, which means it's a safe space for the wary.

This isn't a political group, so you won't be bombarded with ideology, it's simply a group for those of us who share a similar belief, that all humans are worthy. I'll even go so far as to say that members should leave both their politics and their religion at the door, whilst anti-fascism is a political stance, it is one that crosses political boundaries. We don't even have to like each other to show solidarity, a point worth remembering.

************************************************************************************************************

Just a heads up. I strive to keep moderation light on comments to group posts, but obviously I will not tolerate intolerance or other comments that seek to denigrate other human beings in any way. Any such comments WILL be removed. Cogent and fair and relevant comment will be respected, even if not agreed with.

To anyone complaining that their rights to free speech have been violated, I point out to you that I am the moderator and it is me who decides what is allowed and what is not. If you wish to express an opinion that is contrary to the values of this group, you are free to do so, somewhere else.

Copies of the logo are available, as is an at present limited range of clothing with an ant--fascist message on it. Please ask me for copies, stating in the case of clothing, what avatar you use. Thank you.

Let me tell you about the Genesis Roleplay Grid - This grid was originally started by my daughter, Metal Tango, while I was on another grid with a group of friends. Things went south on that grid for reasons that I do not need to explain so my daughter extended a welcome to my friends to join us on Genesis Roleplay Grid with the understanding that each could have a 1 - 4x4 region with no rent to pay but donations if they could afford it. Everyone has worked very hard to develop this grid and make it a success and build up a good reputation in the virtual community. Seventy five percent of our membership on the grid are Role players and we have fun when we get together, 95% of the regions are developed either for role play or personal use with a scattered few for other reasons because people like to build their dream region. It is a well organized, well run grid with an amazing tech whom we adore and those who were there with us from the ground floor up, working, striving and struggling to make it a success have donated financially as well, particularly Metal Tango. We have an amazing mall with incredible builds and most of the regions on the grid are regions that I personally have developed, some with a little help from other members. If you see a region under my profile, rest assured I built and developed it. But....no bragging, because I have been to other grids and some of them are positively amazingly gorgeous and well done and our Virtual Community is about encouraging one another and working together and supporting each other in our endeavors. Genesis Roleplay Grid isn't about me, it's about every single person on that grid for they are all precious and very talented in their own right, whether creative writing, building, decorating, organizing, everyone has a role to play in making the grid a success. So to our members I say THANK YOU! To my Daughter who has shouldered the burden for these few years, even while struggling through nursing school, I say THANK YOU! To the creative and talented Role Players who make it so much fun and interesting, I say THANK YOU! To the many contributing builders on our grid, I say THANK YOU! To our many (and growing) list of vendors, I say THANK YOU! Together we can do better. If you're interested in role play, contact me or Metal Tango. Blessings and much love, Lavia

Another new shop going in at the Masala Al Kohav Mall (We dropped the Star Jinn Palisade because it confused people). Ezra Millberry will be opening an "Odds & Ends" shop and the Masala Al Kohav Mall is proud to sponsor Ezra in this endeavor. We have many fantastic builders who contribute to the Masala Al Kohav Mall (Masala Al Kohav is Hebrew for "Wish Upon A Star") all working to make sure your wishes for positively gorgeous builds, working, functioning builds, easy to use builds to make your Virtual Life adventure fun, ESPECIALLY immersive ROLEPLAY!! This is why our grid is called the Genesis Roleplay Grid. We currently have land available at very reasonable prices and if you're looking to own a grid of your own, talk to us, we know a guy!! We haveFall's For You Animesh people, Ares Gizmos, Indego's Market and Boutique, Creations by Tainted Angel, Thor's Forge contributed by our friend Thorvaldr Ragnarrson, and of course Your's truly and I build under many names because of the role play I'm involved in, but mostly this name and my shop is Lavia's Little Corner. Stop in and shop till you drop and if you can't find what your looking for, just ask, I might know who does. Blessings and much love, Lavia.
