DJ Ars at Eddi´s Gallery

"Photographer Eddi Haskell and his partner Jago Constantine celebrated their first anniversary on November 20, 2009 at Eddi's Gallery in Second Life. Eddi was showing his photography of the new virtual world of Blue Mars at the time. This video by Cuno Fluno shows some really hot people dancing to the music of Ars Northmead while celebrating Eddi and Jago's anniversary."

I struck gold today when I was googling my Ars name this video came up. WoooT!! You can even see my sweety dancing in it, he is the sexy stud in a white suit and wearing a hat.

I still remember that day well, how Ars prepared for the set and how we decided on what he should wear, well mostly Ars of course...but I had my five cents in.

It is strange really. Some days I am totally filled with memories of my Ars and our days together! Other days it feels as if I am forgetting even what his sexy voice and his laugh - his wonderful catchy laugh - sounded like, and that makes me so sad. I wish I had a recording of his voice and laughter now to help me remember all the time.

Linden Lab Hears My Prayers

I read about it first on my friend Frostlands blog and then on The Second Life Blog (where P.J. Linden tells us about a lot of other interesting news and updates also).

My friends at Linden Lab have heard my prayers! Well everyone elses too, I guess, but I still choose to think of this as a personal favor to me from my friends at the lab.

We are getting 40 groups before the end of the year, yeaaaaaahawwww! OK, OK it´s just a trial and they may change it back but it will do for now...

Love ya right back Philip, P.J., Belinda and the rest of you Lindens!

I found this note on Apmels blog and totallty agree with it, so I wanted to share it with you all! Especially since the last post...

Pro-Lifers Coup in the Council of Europe

Health professionals and the hospitals can refuse to perform abortions, according to a new Council resolution.

Ironically this was the Council of Europes resolution to a Swedish proposal designed to help women in countries with a strong anti-abortion movement to get care. The background is a Polish case where a pregnant woman with intestinal problems, died after doctors refused to perform the necessary surgery because of fear of damaging the fetus.

The vote was held in Strasbourg on Thursday afternoon, when most of the 313 delegates of the Parliamentary Assembly had gone home. 

In contrast, the Councils abortion opponents rallied round, and pushed through changes so that the final resolution had the opposite effect: "No person, hospital or institution shall be coerced, held liable or discriminated against in any way for refusing to carry out, facilitate, assist or perform an abortion" or "any act that may cause the death of a human fetus or embryo," reads a couple of formulations. 

The resolution was pushed through by 56 votes to 51.

....

I ask myself, "Is healthcare for the patients or for the healthcare professionals?"
 
Healthcare professionals who have moral qualms about performing such procedures should either be prepared to carry out their work or switch to other areas of healthcare where they can avoid any conflict with their own moral choices.

Healthcare workers have every right to have any objections, reservations or scruples, but it is they themselves who must take responsibility for this not their employers or the patients.There are lots of areas within healthcare where medical personnel do not have to face this moral dilemma.

I finally also ask myself "Where the f**k, were the other 206 well paid parliamentarians and how could they be so naive as to allow this to happen?"

"Los 33"

I am rejoicing with the rest of the world as the rescue of the 33 miners proceeds and also thinking of their fate.

The 32 chilean and 1 bolivian miners were entombed 69 days ago in a mine half a mile under the Atacama desert in Chile. The fortitude and unity of these men has clearly played a key role in their survival.

The miners now have a  new-found celebrity status. It was not surprising therefore to hear that they have received media training classes by videoconference from the surface. Subjects have included how to handle questions about sensitive issues such as money matters, sexual thoughts while underground and of course the squabbling families.

The miners have also been forced to choose the three relatives who will meet them when they finally emerge from the mine. Quite a challenge for men with large and sometimes duelling families "The fighting within the families and the domestic squabbles has actually been our greatest headache," Commander Andreas Llarena, a Chilean navy doctor, told The Sunday Telegraph.


It´s time to meet your loved one´s guys, and all your well kept secrets that have been revealed to the world by the press corps while you were away for 65 days. Just face the music and stand straight, you can do it!

Brace Yourselves

Missed all you beautiful people and our beautiful Second Life.
