In Memory of J. Wallace

Today I learned that my friend J. Wallace passed away in June 2024.

J was more than a friend. He was a contributing writer for my Climate of Our Future blog and someone whose passion for our oceans was truly inspiring. One of the stories he often spoke about was Adelita, the remarkable loggerhead sea turtle whose incredible journey across the Pacific helped change our understanding of sea turtle migration forever.

Years ago I created LivBlue at Great Canadian Grid as a tribute to J's work and his dedication to our oceans. When that grid closed, LivBlue found a new home on 3HG, where it continues to celebrate marine life and ocean conservation.

In his memory, I have created the Adelita Choker, a silver sea turtle necklace inspired by the grace, endurance, and extraordinary journey of Adelita. I hope it serves as a small reminder that one person's passion can inspire others for years to come.

If you'd like to visit LivBlue, explore the underwater world, and receive the Adelita Choker, you're warmly invited.

Thank you, J, for sharing your knowledge, your friendship, and your love for the sea. Your work continues to ripple outward, just like the tides.

Ben Dover was the secret code name for the engineer behind the SR71. I recall seeing a documentary about ages ago and started cracking up when he said the code name he was using at the time.

MazebzOS_AVX2-8-0-0-261841510 PBR Skin HUD! So...today I said I am going to fix this stupid HUD crap. I also said damn it I am brining in pbr avatars I don't care if they don't care and don't want to put the scripts in open sim to make it work. So I made a floater in my viewer. It works great! It works with pbr skins also. One can name the links and face in the hud however you want. You can save the Alphas in a notecard. No scripts, which means no hypergrid breakage. https://maze.bz/mazebzviewer.zip...I will think about trying to see if it can map the mesh somehow into the hud to make it more like the sets we are used to. But making a hud for the avatar was easily 2 xs faster than doing it with a script. If anyone cares enough to add PBR skin HUD floater to firestorm just say hello and I will give you the MD file...

Today, Samsara is a place of silence, reflection, and compassion.

With a humble heart, I honour the lives lost in the heartbreaking tragedy in Venezuela, and the twelve monks who lost their lives during their pilgrimage in Thailand. Though these events happened in different parts of the world, they remind us that suffering knows no borders, and compassion knows no language.

These memorials are not placed here for attention, but as a quiet tribute to those who have passed, to the families who mourn, to the rescuers who continue their tireless work, and to every innocent life forever changed by these tragedies.

May all who have departed find peace. May those who grieve find comfort. May those who continue to suffer find strength, hope, and kindness in the hearts of others.

May we all find our way through Samsara, guided by the wisdom and compassion of Metta.

May all beings be free from suffering. 🙏🕊️🌸
