Today I want to tell you about Haven of Memories and my Dear friend, Lavia Lavine who created it with her own builds as well as stuff from many talented folks in our Metaverse. One of her best talents in MHO is putting together "Scenes". One of her best qualities is her loving heart...and her orneriness. ;) This fountain was put together using her own stuff as well as many other talented creators' work. You can't tell by the photo but the water moves down the steps perfectly and she worked hard to make it happen. Amazing to see in person! It isn't linked so you can't just come and grab it. I am showing this to you because it is simply stunning and the whole region is peaceful, comforting, and beautiful for reflection, memories, and feeling close to your loved ones. What a beautiful Memorial Garden! You don't even have to have an account on the grid to have a memorial of your loved one here. The only requirement is that they lived a Virtual life on any grid in the Metaverse. It is a way for all of us to remember them in one place that we can visit at any time. I took this photo because I thought this was so beautiful and everyone should know that it is there for all of us!!! Thanks, Lavia!

I added a shop to the Catena di Isole Freebie Mall "Classic Closet". I have decided to wear the default-system-classic avatar and in doing so I decided to create clothes to wear and give what I create freely. I will also give out Fate Mesh clothing that I have textured with a texture-changing script giving you multiple choices. The clothing fits Classic Avatar wearing Alphas old school but I am diggin' it! Thank you Jamie Anna Wright for the inspiration. You can find the clothing store here virtual-hg.com:8002/Catena%20di%20isole/397/288/32 I have a bit of lingerie and hosiery too~

I created a Marquee sign free to copy, inside the contents I placed other textures you can use for various Marquee Signs, and also you can add your own! The Marquee sign is in the Monentes store foyer.

Spring has sprung in the shire. All the cold is gone and the birds are singing. The trees are green and so is the grass. Come and explore and enjoy the town, the tavern, the bakery, the farms, the mountain lodge and fishing cottages, the winery, and St. Brendan's Church.

Hello Everyone! Nice to meet everyone! I'm a performer here on the hypergrid and in SL. In my RL, I'm an out loud and proud femme lesbian cis-woman, who is legally married to my butch wife. Thank you for this group! I look forward to participating.

I had for this lady a deep respect and appreciation and so created this memorial wall to her memory to reflect the beauty of the soul who was Veritas McMaster. May she know eternal peace and beauty as greatly and deeply as she created it in virtual for all to enjoy. She brought many smiles to many people may her joy be full in her eternal slumber.

Loru Destiny, Stormy Scorpio and Moses Rae talking about their creations on artdestiny grid this week on the Inworld Review.

Hi

Make no mistake, what I like is astronomy, not rockets....

But doing this simulator (it's endless...), I'm realizing many things.

1. I have gone where I was not called.

2. The Russian-Ukrainian conflict reaches the space.

The international station, the ISS, is falling apart... The docked Soiuz has large meteorite impacts. An unmanned one will arrive on February 20 to return the astronauts to Earth (only the Russians)...

Russia has decided not to carry supplies and the ISS has to start its engines every day, to maintain orbit and not fall, plus water and food.

SpaceX has a spacecraft there, but it only holds 4 people out of the 7 that inhabit it in total. In case of emergency, if something happens before February 20, they will not be able to return in the SpaceX spacecraft either, the astronauts' suits are custom-made for each one, so the Russians could not return in it (they could not sit down for re-entry).

SpaceX will continue to carry supplies (as long as NASA pays), but we all know how Elon Musk's business is going.

NASA on the other hand, is investing in the Moon colonization project, they didn't count on fixing the ISS.... Besides, their latest plan, as they fail to land on Luna with the Orion, is to... crash the spacecraft (the necessary instruments are saved for now, they say). I'm sure this is quite economical

Will the ISS make it to 2031, when it was scheduled to be destroyed in the ocean?
My guess is that international politics will destroy it sooner.

Taking into account, that there is a new space race between SpaceX, China, Arab Emirates, USA and some crazy couple who want to go to Mars (right now nobody is able to reach the Moon and land, but they want to go to Mars...).

Why invest in Mars? Why did we go to Luna?


Hola

No os equivoquéis, lo que me gusta es la astronomía, no los cohetes....

Pero haciendo este simulador (es interminable...), me estoy dando cuenta de muchas cosas.

1. Me he metido donde no me llamaban.

2. El conflicto ruso-ucraniano llega al espacio.

3. La estación internacional, la ISS, se cae a pedazos... La Soiuz acoplada tiene grandes impactos de meteoritos. Una no tripulada llegará el 20 de febrero para devolver a los astronautas a la Tierra (sólo a los rusos)...

Rusia ha decidido no llevar suministros y la ISS tiene que encender sus motores todos los días, para mantener la órbita y no caer, además de agua y comida.

SpaceX tiene una nave allí, pero sólo caben 4 personas de las 7 que la habitan en total. En caso de emergencia, si ocurre algo antes del 20 de febrero, tampoco podrán volver en la nave de SpaceX, los trajes de los astronautas están hechos a medida para cada uno, por lo que los rusos no podrían volver en ella (no podrían sentarse para la reentrada).

SpaceX seguirá llevando suministros (mientras la NASA pague), pero todos sabemos cómo va el negocio de Elon Musk.

La NASA por su parte, está invirtiendo en el proyecto de colonización de la Luna, no contaban con arreglar la ISS.... Además, su último plan, como no consigan aterrizar en Luna con la Orión, es... estrellar la nave (los instrumentos necesarios están guardados por ahora, dicen). Seguro que esto es bastante económico

¿Llegará la ISS a 2031, cuando estaba previsto que se destruyera en el océano?
Mi opinión es que la política internacional la destruirá antes.

Teniendo en cuenta, que hay una nueva carrera espacial entre SpaceX, China, Emiratos Árabes, EEUU y alguna pareja de locos que quieren ir a Marte (ahora mismo nadie es capaz de llegar a la Luna y aterrizar, pero quieren ir a Marte...).

¿Por qué invertir en Marte? ¿Por qué fuimos a Luna?

Unexpected find at All Free Shopping Spree (https://opensimworld.com/hop/89839):

At about 186,261,22, in the middle of a hodgepodge of Athena and HG items that aren't even shoes, hangs this box. It's labelled "chaussures ruth free boxed" and contains a pair of high-heeled sandals.

Which, as the name indicates, are rigged for Ruth2. Most likely the only box of clothing on this entire sim that is. They also have to be one of only two pairs of high-heeled Ruth2 sandals; the other one is Taarna Welles' reBoot Luella Mytho Sandals High set. She also made a set of medium-height Mytho sandals, by the way.

Creator of these sandals is Robin of Wood from HGluv, old home of LuvMyBod. So I dare say they're safe.

By the way, the box is full-perm and can be picked up, just in case you're working on a Ruth2 fashion store.

Horse News from the Builder
My conversation with Roland Francis.....builder of our horses


Safinemahoe2 5 hours ago
Hello Roland
First I want to say how amazing your horses are. I have wanted grazing horses that I could ride for years!

I did come up with one issue and I wanted to reach out and see if you had ever seen this.

I have seven horses rezzed on my personal island. Another person who lives on my region in avi worlds also has a couple of your horses. If she clicks follow on one of her horses….. all the horses……anywhere on the 64 sim region…. Go to that horse.

All our land is group owned.

For now….. we do not touch the follow button, but I wanted to see if you had input.

This has happened multiple times with different people…


Roland Francis 3 hours ago
Hey Safine (if it's ok to abreviate your name this way).
Thank you for reaching out and for your nice words.
There is a very simple solution to solve that issue: change the channel to which the horses listen to: eg. change channel 2 to e.g. 666 and channel 3 to 777 (do NOT change channel 1, the script will assign its own internal channel for its own use).
Please let me know if that worked well for you

Safinemahoe2 3 hours ago
thank you for your prompt reply....so each owner in the region...has different channel for horses?


Roland Francis 3 hours ago
All horses listen to the same external channel, which you can change for your own proper use such as e.g. 123


Roland Francis 3 hours ago
when you open the script you will see something like this: //-------------setting menu variables-----------------
integer Channeld1= -9999;
integer Channeld2 = 9;
integer Channeld3 = 7;


Roland Francis 3 hours ago
now change Channeld2 to a number of your choice e.g. 123 and Channeld3 to another number of your choice 456

Safinemahoe2 3 hours ago
thank you soooooo much!!!!!

Roland Francis 3 hours ago
if you would want to make several "couples", you could give those horse their own channel (such as a mother and a foal)


Roland Francis 3 hours ago
the idea behind the "several channels" is to do partnering as well as hearding, so you can have a couple (talking on channeld2) AND a heard (talking on channeld3)

Roland Francis 3 hours ago
It is a feature 'under development", so next versions of the horses will have more functionality

If you need more help, just let me know :)

Avitron has been my home for almost a year, it is my home from the end of the pandemic and I return to normality, but the virtual reality glasses and almost three years of confinement already make it difficult to leave home in Avitron, I learned the worst part of life
I met intolerance, envy, hate, evil
This has made me more prepared for when I face the competitive life in studies and work
The last thing that Avitron gave me was betrayal. I was happy to be Troy Junior, an avtar from the Matrix Grid that had the power of God, but not all that glitters is gold.
then I discovered that I was not free to choose my clothes my skin my shape everything was done by troy matrix he said what to wear what to do and when to talk then they asked me choose
MATRIX or AVITRON and it was not difficult to choose obviously was to choose the freedom to do what I wanted to dress as I wanted and to be able to say what I thought this decision has caused an earthquake because Troy gives many things to grids things that he steals from second life and Obviously, the owners of these grids do not want to lose that, so they do what he tells them. I am calm, I never stole anything and I have managed to do a few things that I sell in my store, the 3 things in the lawsuit are free.
The most painful thing here are the people who come out in favor of Troy so as not to lose to continue having free objects first try to get to know me first, read carefully, investigate a little and draw your conclusions (remember Troy has hacked my computer more than once) I chose to live in avitron

I enjoy creating caged beads and thought it would be fun to create a little kit of a few caged beads, round and elongated beads so that you can create your own necklaces. You can also add these to your charm bracelets. I started you out with a few beads and will add more beads as I make them.

My 2022 Christmas gift for the community, at least for the Ruth2 v4 users:

Nail polish for Ruth2 v4.

Two boxes with BoM nail polish in 31 colours altogether. One box contains the 22 original colours from the Ruth 2.0 nail polish applier plus one bonus colour. The other one contains the 8 nail polish colours from the Ruth2 v4 HUD, but now covering the whole nail. Both sets come with a Readme notecard with instructions.

They're currently only available in the Westend (https://opensimworld.com/hop/80119) at my R2 shop (at 44/67/22, opposite the Statue of Liberty), but I've passed copies to Ai Austin, and I expect it to appear on the official R2 sim soon. I'll also roll them out to other sims offering Ruth2 v4.

Both boxes are full-perm (or should be; drop me a note if they aren't) and licensed under Creative Commons CC0. You can copy the boxes or buy the content.

The new Peace Enclave Museum located at my Safari Wildlife Reserve. This museum is dedicated to continuing awareness of our responsibilities to our animal friends that we share this planet with. While there must be a balance for healthy wildlife, to quote Mr. Spock "To hunt a creature to extinction is illogical", we must not allow continued poaching of these beautiful animals. It is my hope you will visit the museum and I will be adding to it and to the reserve as time goes on. This has become a very interesting project for me to dive into. Be Blessed, ~~Lavia~~
