Commemorative C&P for Circe

Today there will be a commemorative Coffee and Pajamas with DJ Elfay Pinkdot (aka +Lisa Feay)  honoring the memory of the late Circe Broom, who passed away on November 29, 2012 after a long struggle with her health.

Circe was a supernova on the SecondLife music and cultural scene. She ran the following clubs and venues until shortly before her passing, Sunset Jazz Club (established 2004), Memphis Pavilion, Luxor Stage, Cairo Theater, Circe's Sanctuary, Anubis Art Gallery, and Temple of Bast.

This will be the first annual:Circe Broom Memorial Vodka & Coffee Xmas Crash! The commemorative party starts at 10 AM SLT and will take place at Brianna Beresford´s Tranquil Café (SLurl)

On a personal level I will always remember Circe as my energetic, warm, wonderful, kind, loving and supportive friend who in spite of her first life difficulties and her busy second life schedule always had time for a chat and a good laugh.

What I Am Missing On Facebook

My sweet bosom buddy Apmel Goosson (aka +Lennart Nilsson) sent me this picture to rub in what wonderful fun I am missing by no longer being on Facebook. Isn't he a peach? 

NRA Calls for Police State

"The National Rifle Association (NRA), one of the most powerful lobbying groups in the U.S., has called for armed security guards to be posted in every school in the country and insisted that the only solution to gun violence in the wake of the Newtown massacre was more guns.

A week almost to the hour after a gunman blasted his way into Sandy Hook elementary school in Connecticut, killing 20 first-grade children as well as six staff members, the NRA's executive vice-president Wayne LaPierre finally broke his silence and delivered a defiant message to the nation.

Throwing down the gauntlet to Barack Obama, he declared: "The only thing to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun." That is a mantra that he has used after several previous mass shootings."

Time Magazine´s Person of the Year 2012

Time Magazine on Wednesday, December 19, named the recently re-elected US President Barack Obama as its person of the year for 2012 - the second time it has awarded him this honor.

The American news magazine put Obama on its cover and said he deserved the accolade as "the symbol and in some ways the architect of this new America."

The magazine noted that Obama was the first American president since Franklin D. Roosevelt to win more than 50 percent of the vote in two straight elections.

Anthony Antoine's "Secret Lover"

This is actually a music video relationship I can relate to, I have been there myself once and for a long time. It is totally  devastating for your sense of self-worth, avoid it at all costs. You are the one who loses, every time and always!
