Opening of a Library exhibition

A big, dark-grey block appeared in the Library. And another... and then another. Together, they formed a T-shaped object. What was going on?

What was going on, was that Kendra Mollsen's own Library exhibition opened! Her exhibition showed only some of the wonderful uniforms she created, since there wasn't enough room to show all of them! With an exhibition like this, what better way would there be to open it, than a fashion show, complete with catwalk?

Lt.jg Debbydo and myself were the models, while Kendra addressed the crowd, also giving some background information. It was clear from the reactions that everyone was impressed. And they should be! Kendra, keep up the good work!

Opening Library exhibition "Memories"

On friday 20th of January, 1 PM SLT, a group of GFC people gathered in the Library, most of them dressed in their dress uniforms. Why? Because the newest Library exhibition, 'Memories', by Falo Priestman, was about to be opened.

The exhibition was put up to honour the memories of BRana Balbozar, who passed away over a year ago. Her memory still lives on, and Commodore Priestman decided to show that with an exhibition. His opening speech came right from the heart: *

Library exhibitions opening!

What do bathtubs and classes have in common? That's right, they're both featured in an exhibition at the Library! Both the 'GFC Book of Records' exhibition by former member Ensign Six of Nine, and the Academy divisional exhibition by Academy Vice Commandant Angelis Bourne, were opened today.

The Book of Records exhibition had been a special Library project Ensign Six of Nine had been working on. And what a great job she did! A bathtub race, a treasure hunt, and much, much more. They're all featured in the Book of Records exhibition in the Library. Six, thank you very much for your great work!

The Academy divisional exhibition is the first one of its kind. It shows just what the Academy is all about. A while back, all the Leads in GFC have received a notecard from me, giving them the opportunity to create an exhibition which will be featured in the Library. The Academy jumped at the chance, and thus they're the first to show their exhibition. Hopefully, this will be the first of many!

Both exhibitions will be in the Library for the next couple of weeks... so go to the Library and have a look! And if you've got an exhibition of your own that you'd like to show to GFC, feel free to contact me: Captain RoBobby McMillan.

See you in the Library!

To seek out new life and new civilisations

By Six of Nine ( Yalene Resident )

I have been asked to write about a project i have running for the Library and the topic given to me was the Star Trek motto... "To seek out new life and new civilisations"

 My first thoughts were of the breedable pets that SL offers, so i decided to  gather animals from all over the universe...SL universe. I was amazed at the variety and the diversity of life herein.And with very little knowledge,  i set out to gather information one species at a time.

For my first choice, I chose the Ozimals Bunnys. Ok, so not a lot of excitement there, but cute and can be  'worn' from inventory to be petted. As with all animals, this helps their happiness, which in turn affects their abilities to breed.

Next i decided to try Amaretto Horses. While i have noticed that this species does come in differnt sizes and breeds, it also has a very complex  order of desirability, according to its eyes, coat and any new trait. While not overly expensive to feed, they are ridable and I found that  they breed quite readily, like the bunny's.
While contemplating my next choice of species, I happen to stumble across a rare opportunity...someone offering free breedable dragons. Unable to resist the urge, i decided they would be a good addition to my growing collection. Now this is where it gets a little more complex than the horses, as they are colour coded and the number represent what i can only describe as "purity" in colour, for lack of a better description. They are also expensive to feed and  non interactive, so you can look and breed but not pet.  And while the dragons may not be as popular as they once were, they  do have a unique grouping system, ie, 1 Queen to 7 males...lucky Queen!!  LOL.

Next , I opted for Wyrnwood Faeries. Pretty, colourful and  non interactive. They lay eggs readily and you can amass quite a collection in a small amount of time. This species also has 'rare' breeds and  its really only the enthusiasts that continue to keep them.

Amaretto K9's were my next choice. K9's have not been in Sl very long, but they are popular already and very easy to look after. Resembling life like breeds of dogs, there is still amount to the breeds available...Im holding out for the Chihuahua's LOL

My  last choice, (and i say last choice because the prims and Lindens are getting thin) are the Meeroos.
Sweet, loveable and so much fun. This species also has a range of coat and eye combinations, as well as sizes. Meeroos also come with personalities, shy, lazy, friendly and mischievous. No matter, they easy to look after, love to be snuggled and are fun to watch, as they rear up on hind legs and ask to be picked up.

Now if you want to see this exhibition, its open until the 30th of September,. Everyone is welcome and you can interact and pet the Meeroos while you are here.
