The Return of the RCAF
We're excited again...We are energized and rebuilding...
Cornelius Fanshaw built a new Officers Club in the WW2 Tradition for our exploits in the WW2 sims. This copy will also act as our meeting area 1000 meters above Lot 2 of the RCAF Connolly-Messmer Airpark in Caledon Penzance.
Attention all RCAF Pilots!
We will have a 9:00 AM (SL time) Meeting on Sunday the 29th of November 2009.
Arrive at the RCAF Connolly-Messmer Airpark Gazebo and use the TP to teleport to our new WW2-style RCAF Officers club at 1000 Meters above RCAF Connolly-Messmer Lot # 2.
Our meetup will take place at the Officers Club.
Topics of discussion: Events in December and a possible solution to the simcross-extremelag situation

Tinkeratrix :: Ilsa Munro
One of my favourite people in Second Life now has a blog....
May I introduce my Tinkeratrix friend Ilsa Munro. She's a duchess, she builds, and does so with style, humour, and in spite of what she'll tell you, great aplomb as well.
From Ilsa's first blog post....

From Ilsa's first blog post....
"I've been repeatedly informed that having a blog is a necessary step on the whole "getting the word out there" part of running a SL (tm) business so here I am catching the tail end of this particular trend. My problem is that I'm truly awful at self-promotion. It took forever for me to work up the nerve to post in the various forums in which I occasionally participate.
Two things have prompted me into action - or a reduced level of inaction. First, a friend basically told me to "shut up and do something about it" and since this is free it's the obvious choice :)
Second I can comfort my sense of modesty with the almost certain knowledge that almost no one will read this and as such it hardly makes a difference how self-aggrandizing it seems to me as I write it.
That of course leaves me with the question of exactly what to write.
A few of you might know that I build aircraft, so naturally I've decided that I'll - ahem - blog about fashion.
What's that you say? SL Fashion is already covered at great and extensive length by everyone and thier cross eyed cat?
Oh... Well then aircraft it is I suppose."

WW2 Sanctuary Combat Roleplay Sims in Danger.... PART 2
Today I'll feature 2 notices from WW2 Sanctuary admins Vickster Kuhn and Joe Sparrow who are doing their part to fight for the sims survival for all of us who enjoy WW2 Combat Roleplay.
From Vickster Kuhn: "Don't know what you've got 'til it's gone....
For months we've been playing and having a great time at Sanctuary, and all the while our good friend and benefactress Saffron Giano has been footing the bill, dealing with complaints, and struggling to make the sims self sufficient.
While vendors and rentals have defrayed the operating costs somewhat, she has forked over the lion's share of the tier fees month after month.
I want to take this opportunity to say, Thank you Saffy for all you gave us!
We love you! Good luck and God Bless you!"
From Joe Sparrow: "Regarding the sims....
....as it is we can't afford 200,000 L per month, so we have plans to move to a cheaper sim bought direct from LL. I know, less prims and all that, but with Saf gone there's not much else I can do.
I can keep the sims alive.... We just need about 150,000 more Lindens donated before the 24th.
I will have to build the sims from scratch but they will live, so if you know anyone who can donate or pledge please help us. I can't do it alone."

WW2 Sims in Danger.... - Royal Caledon Air Force (RCAF)
WW2 Sims in Danger.... - Royal Caledon Air Force (RCAF)
Yesterday, I learned from an Admin at WW2 Sanctuary that 2 of the 3 sims (Bastogne and Fallout) are up for sale by Saffron Giano. The Seller and Admins are looking for a Buyer willing to preserve the status quo of the sims.
If you would be interested in such an undertaking, please contact Saffron Giano. The cost is approx. 300 USD per month for each sim.
Sadly, without a buyer, the 2 sims will be gone after June 30th. So if you enjoy those sims, play there while you can.

Assignment Earth 1944
Our new assignment was long overdue. Although with so many members of the team recovering from our last mission, perhaps it was just right..
One of our best agents, Avery Robbiani, was still on medical leave and may not make this one. But that's why all of us train for any contingency. We need to step in when a team member falls.
For the time being I set aside thoughts of my crew and entered the planetary database room. From here I could select any known planet's historical database and identify problems in the timeline.
Now that I had my clue from the President of New Gallifrey, I selected Earth and determined the source of her concern.
July 1944...
The nation-state known as Nazi Germany. Trouble with a Capital T!
A renegade Time Lord was planning to interfere with Earth's history. Their intention is to give advanced weaponry to the National Socialist regime in Germany. Hitler would have V2 Rockets with Atomic Bombs!
Earth's timeline would be altered forever, giving a madman complete rule over the planet by a madwoman from another time and place.
It was now my assignment to gather my team, plan and execute our mission.
1) Remove or destroy all non-historical record artifacts from the spacetime disrupted area.
2) Remove or destroy the renegade Time Lord from Earth.
I returned to the Time Tunnel and made some notes....
....but what was most disturbing about the clue from the President, was the name of our TimeLord-of-Interest.

A new enemy to our dear Caledon homeland is expected near our southern border within the week. The nefarious government of New Brunswick has formed and will no doubt be sending reconnaissance teams to document military strength and the fighting will of the good people of Caledon.
Be ever diligent, watchful and remember to increase patrols along the southern border as well as check for suspicious "persons of interest" in RCAF Airfields and other sensitive facilities.

RCAF Air Combat - Sunday 10 May 2009
On May 10th, pilots from the Royal Caledon Air Force gathered in Liberty Lovelace for our usual Sunday morning air combat exercises.
Our dogfight that day was anything but usual as we soon discovered an uninvited guest.
RCAF pilots Vickster Kuhn and Cornelius Fanshaw discovered an Air Kraken at cloud altitude. This beast of the air was the approximate size of our aircraft and gave chase to both fine pilots. I'm pleased to report they kept their wits about them and were able to escape the beast's clutches....or tentacles....or whatever.
Through a happy coincidence, Professor Marion Questi, an Oxbridge Zoologist of note, soon arrived and explained his research into the Air Kraken of Lovelace.
The beast's vision and sensory perception is somewhat limited to 50 meters and it is possible to out fly the beast with sufficient speed and piloting skills.
In regards this Air Kraken of Lovelace, I am issuing the following order to all my pilots. I order the destruction of this threat to military, commercial, and pleasure flying craft before the beast can reproduce and its offspring become an even larger threat to Lovelace, Caledon, and other nation-states of the Realm of The Roses and our Allies.

2nd Annual Mad Scientist Convention
On the Royal Caledon Air Force watchlist....
"Caledon Steam SkyCity is proud to present the SSC 2nd Annual Mad Scientist Convention - SSC ReAnimated
May 2nd, 2009; 3pm and 5pm SLT
Has your research turned to archaic subjects?
Do your formulae come from ancient tomes as much as from modern journals?
Are you meddling in things Man was not meant to know?
From Frankenstein to Tesla, and from Flamel to Herbert West, some scientists cannot leave well enough alone.
Join us on Saturday, May 2nd at 3pm for the Speed Building Contest, Avatar contest entries must be received by 4pm with winners announced during the Mad Scientist's ReAnimation Ball starting at 5pm. There will be two build contests with a grand prize in each category and a dance in the evening.
*Unnatural Creation Avatar - Building starts now, with judging on the day of the convention. Create an avatar from scratch. Is it a murderous robot? A living Construct? Did you summon Cthulhu from a test tube? Let your imagination run wild, and show us that science really can "open strange doors." Avatars will be judged on creativity, quality, and fit with the theme. No parts from other avatars - must be wholly your own creation. Judging between 3pm and 4pm SLT.
*Speed build- one hour, theme related to "weird science practices" will be announced at the start of the contest. Building starts at 3pm, and stops at 4pm. Judging will be based on quality, originality, and how well it fits with the announced theme.
Do not let the narrow-minded views of fools and stagnant academics hinder you. This is Science!"
