Déjà vu - June 2008 –

The Déjà vu - June 2008 - is now available with very nice articles. So don’t lose reading it Deja vu international


Front page photography by Cicciuzzo Gausman




This time I made two articles with the help of Liane Maertens, Dodd Roff, Strapasson Kidd, Raffaello Robbiani, Gutta Teichmann and Sennaspirit Coronet. Without them would be impossible to make the articles. I want to thank you all for the inestimable work you all did.

One of the articles is about an interview with Annacarol Benazzi, the “Olimpo girl 2008”. The Olimpo girl is a model contest in Brasil Rio Island that Annacarol won. But the article is not only an interview. This is an article about first experience. Normally we get confuse, impatient and stressed when doing things you never did before. Well, Second life as a simulator can help us if used to get a background experience for our life.




The second article is an erotic poem (short story) from Strapasson Kidd the SECRET GARDEN and the great photography from Sennaspirit Coronet and my model poses, lol!!!!!

“I feel your perfume blinding my senses,
Involving me,
Seducing me,
Driving me helpless to you.”


This month the magazine is out of this world. You can also read these fine articles:



Casa Del Shai from Jewell Munro great pictures from Cicciuzzo Gausman, interviewing Shai Delacroix.



Baby’s Day out From Robi Tairov about baby’s hospital of Rowanda Simons.

You can know more about the real life pleasant city of Valencia in the beautiful Spain. And much more you just can lose reading it. You can get an In-world magazine here.


I would like to have a feedback from my readers. This is very important for me to make better article. So please leave your comment here about my Déjà vu article.

Sana Models Charity Fasion Show

Every time that we have charity on SL I will announced on the blog.

Text sent by Keely Lefavre

Event Date and Information:
*Date: June 01, 2008 *Time: 12PM SLT *Host: Abbie Reinard & Keely LeFavre *DJ: Giela Delpaso *Location: Sana Mall Sim http://slurl.com/secondlife/Sana%20Mall/212/51/358
*Auction begins: 1PM (more info on auction at bottom of note)

There is a prophecy in the Old Testament that reads "to give to them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness". It is this bit of the Bible that inspired Abbie Reinard to pursue a SecondLife career in fashion. "I've been working my hiney off in the SecondLife fashion world raising awareness and funds for a tiny AIDS orphanage in western Kenya," she says of her several months of effort. "One of my hopes has been to find someone to host a fabulous event showcasing SecondLife beauty and fashion creativity. Keely LeFavre and Sana Models are being wonderful and bringing this dream to life!"

The charity fashion show will take place on June 1st around mid-afternoon SLT at the lovely Sana Mall. The show will consist of 6 of the hottest SL models showing creations from 4 amazing SL Designers. Immediately after the show, an auction will take place for one outfit from each designer. All donations and proceeds will go directly to the Maseno Project.

The show promises to be something truly special and has attracted designers who rank among the most elite in Second Life's fabulously thriving digital fashion industry: Callie Cline (Callifornia), Giana Paine (GiGi couture) Sissy Pessoa (BAIASTICE) and Bianca Foulon (biancaF.) Omnia Oh (Beauty Avatar). Each designer is showcasing at least 1 outfit that will be exclusively available for auction after the show.

"I love this show that Keely and Abbie are arranging. It's a wonderful opportunity to use my designs to make a real difference for these children." Garments of praise? Indeed yes! Abbie's excitment is evident, "This event will make such a huge difference in the lives of over 30 children who lost their parents to disease. Keely and I are amazed by the generosity of these stunning designers."

The Maseno Project is an intimate charity whereby people's donations make significant impact on particular lives. "Large charities are incredible and can accomplish so many amazing things! But we still need to pursue more intimate connections with personal relationship. Many small charities would simply dissappear without individuals who come alongside them," says Abbie. Due to the AIDS pandemic, a small village 20 miles west of Maseno has a large number of orphans. Most of these orphans have no means of support from either relatives or the local community. Among the necessities are: proper education, food, basic health care. This is a self-funded integrated community based project to establish education bursary plans for orphans, youth, the destitute and special cases such as the blind, deaf and the lame. And provide health care for the above groups. The centre has one ongoing activity early childhood education program which has 30 children, mainly orphans.

For more information about the Maseno Project visit Abbie's blog at http://masenoproject.blogspot.com/ or contact All Saints Parish, Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK), Diocese of Maseno North, P.O. Box 16 Luanda for info about the orphanage.
For information about the upcoming show on June 1st including underwriting and advertising, please contact Keely LeFavre.

Auction information:
*Bidding on each outfit will start at $200L and rise from there.
*All proceeds from the auction and donations kiosks will go directly to the maseno project Via Sana Models.
*Confirmation of monies received and sent will be sent to the designers and

Storytelling

Aianna reading in Alurel, originally uploaded by Wildstar Beaumont.

Anna has been so kind to ask me to post some of my pictures on her blog. I have been thinking for an entire week which one to post first.

I have decided not to use one of the lovely windlight sunsets that I like so much (but they will come ;-) ) , but to document one of my favorite activities in SL: listening to the reading of a friend of mine: Aianna Oh.
Aianna is the author of a series of fantasy novels the valley of the Ivory Swan, the first volume of which she has for sale in Second Life.

But she has also brought back the old art of storytelling. She has a lovely voice and a great reading technique and listening to her is always a great pleasure.
She is regularly reading in regions such as Faeria (Huin Sim - Fri 5pm slt), Winterfell (Sat 2pm slt), and her own beautiful sim of Alurel (Sun 1pm slt - http://slurl.com/secondlife/Alurel/181/206/24) where this picture was taken live, as she is still reading while I write :-)

The Story of Mother's Day

Based on text from Wikipedia and web.


Different countries celebrate Mother's Day on various days of the year because the day has a number of different origins.

The earliest Mother's Day celebrations can be traced back to the spring celebrations of ancient Greece in honor of Rhea, the Mother of the Gods. During the 1600's, England celebrated a day called "Mothering Sunday." Celebrated on the 4th Sunday of Lent (the 40 day period leading up to Easter), "Mothering Sunday" honored the mothers of England.

During this time many of the England's poor worked as servants for the wealthy. As most jobs were located far from their homes, the servants would live at the houses of their employers. On Mothering Sunday the servants would have the day off and were encouraged to return home and spend the day with their mothers. A special cake, called the mothering cake, was often brought along to provide a festive touch.

As Christianity spread throughout Europe the celebration changed to honor the "Mother Church" -- the spiritual power that gave them life and protected them from harm. Over time the church festival blended with the Mothering Sunday celebration. People began honoring their mothers as well as the church.


The United States celebrates Mother's Day on the second Sunday in May. In the United States, Mother's Day was loosely inspired by the British day and was imported by social activist Julia Ward Howe (who wrote the words to the Battle Hymn of the Republic) after the American Civil War.She first suggested a day dedicated to peace. Ms. Howe would hold organized Mother's Day meetings in Boston, MA, every year. However, it was intended as a call to unite women against war.

In 1870, she wrote the Mother's Day Proclamation as a call for peace and disarmament. Howe failed in her attempt to get formal recognition of a Mother's Day for Peace. Her idea was influenced by Ann Jarvis, a young Appalachian homemaker who, starting in 1858, had attempted to improve sanitation through what she called Mothers' Work Days. She organized women throughout the Civil War to work for better sanitary conditions for both sides, and in 1868 she began work to reconcile Union and Confederate neighbors. In parts of the United States it is customary to plant tomatoes outdoors after Mother's Day (and not before).


When Jarvis died in 1907, her daughter, named Anna Jarvis, started the crusade to found a memorial day for women. The first such Mother's Day was celebrated in Grafton, West Virginia, on 10 May 1908, in the church where the elder Ann Jarvis had taught Sunday School. Originally the Andrews Methodist Episcopal Church, this building is now the International Mother's Day Shrine (a National Historic Landmark). From there, the custom caught on — spreading eventually to 45 states. The holiday was declared officially by some states beginning in 1912. In 1914 President Woodrow Wilson declared the first national Mother's Day, as a day for American citizens to show the flag in honor of those mothers whose sons had died in war.


Please, feel free to leave your message for the Mother’s Day.


I wish a happy Mother’s Day and a peaceful and joyful weekend for all readers of this blog and your families.
