Are You the Next Male Free*Style Blogger?

Free*Style is currently looking for the next great male blogger! We would love to have a great man to scope out the best freebies, cheapies and sales in SL here with us.

The requirements are as follows:
-Must take high quality photos. We are an established blog and and are looking for someone who is already at a talent level that can easily fit in with our current bloggers.
-Must have a Flickr account or be willing to make one.
-Must be available to blog frequently. Of course we don't expect you to blog everyday but there are massive amounts of male items to showcase and we would love to see as many as possible.
-Must have good style! We want someone who is not only able to find items but to find GOOD items and to wear them well.
-No drama! This is not a drama blog. Comments are turned off and we do NOT post anything negative.
-We NEVER support stolen or shady content. If you don't know for 100% that it's legit, don't post it.
-You must have two group slots open for us.

Extra Notes:
-You do not have to be a man in RL or even play a male av all of the time. All that matters is that you know how to look like a man and style a man av well.
-We reserve the right to choose more than one blogger or to choose no one at all. We are all friends and we all get along so someone who fits in personality wise is just as important as someone who fits in style wise.
-There is no pay for this! We do it out of the love for blogging, sharing finds to help people and to get designers we love noticed.
-We will accept people from any country, who speak any language, as long as you can speak enough English to post and to read group notices. We love and welcome diversity!
-You DO NOT have to blog exclusively for Free*Style. You are free to have your own blog, most of us do! Your other blog/blogs with be linked on the side bar under "Our Blogger's Blogs."
-We get thousands of readers everyday so remember that everything you post WILL be read. We love being silly but things should be at least semi-appropriate.

If you feel you fit these requirements please post a picture in the Free*Style Flick group HERE titled "Blogger Application: (Your Name.)" In the description you can write anything you feel we should know including past and present blogging or photography experience, if you own or work for a store currently, if you know any of the current bloggers, etc.

Procession of the Dead





Procession of the Dead book cover by Catherine Casalino:
Popular YA author Darren Shan's first adult novel is a combination of horror and near-future thriller set in “The City,” which is the center of Capac Raimi's world. Moving into the city to work with his small-time gangster uncle, Capac soon finds himself at the service of the Cardinal, the leader of all the criminal gangs and the ruler of the city. Capac enjoys his new life except for a few small details, including the enigmatic blind and mute monks who have a way of appearing at significant moments in Capac's life, and the fact that he can't really remember any of his life before he came to the City. Then he meets and immediately falls in love with a young woman who is determined to dig out the Cardinal's secrets. Fast-paced and exciting, Procession of the Dead is a gritty, creepy, and completely successful story with an ending that leaves openings for future series entries. Suggest to readers who enjoyed Miéville's The City and the City (2009) for its slightly fantastical setting combined with a thrilling story.

Aelita: Queen of Mars







Wikipedia:
Aelita (Russian: Аэлита), also known as Aelita: Queen of Mars, is a silent film directed by Soviet filmmaker Yakov Protazanov made on Mezhrabpom-Rus film studio and released in 1924. It was based on Alexei Tolstoy's novel of the same name. Mikhail Zharov and Igor Ilyinsky were cast in leading roles.

Though the main focus of the story is the daily lives of a small group of people during the post-war Soviet Union, the enduring importance of the film comes from its early science fiction elements. It primarily tells of a young man, Los (Russian: Лось, literary Elk), traveling to Mars in a rocket ship, where he leads a popular uprising against the ruling group of Elders, with the support of Queen Aelita who has fallen in love with him after watching him through a telescope.
You can watch the entire movie at Youtube:

Cover and illustration from Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children




Cover and photo-illustration from Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children:
A mysterious island. An abandoned orphanage. And a strange collection of very curious photographs.

It all waits to be discovered in Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, an unforgettable novel that mixes fiction and photography in a thrilling reading experience. As our story opens, a horrific family tragedy sets sixteen-year-old Jacob journeying to a remote island off the coast of Wales, where he discovers the crumbling ruins of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. As Jacob explores its abandoned bedrooms and hallways, it becomes clear that the children who once lived here—one of whom was his own grandfather— were more than just peculiar. They may have been dangerous. They may have been quarantined on a desolate island for good reason. And somehow—impossible though it seems—they may still be alive.

A spine-tingling fantasy illustrated with haunting vintage photography, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children will delight adults, teens, and anyone who relishes an adventure in the shadows.

Virtual Easter

Around this time, I get flash backs of when I was a little girl my mother always bought me a pretty dress, shoes, & accessories for Easter every year. Now that I am "grown up" & have one of my own (a son) I can't help but to feel that I have to dress up - throw on a nice collar shirt with nicely polished shoes on my son. Today however, for me, didn't go as planned. In other words, it sucked. My plans of taking my son to the parade here in NYC were ruined & my mom is on vacation in the Dominican Republic (I wish that was me right now!) so I couldn't rebound & go to her place. *Sighs* At least I have Second Life, right? Hope your day was better than mine. Here are some freebie/dollarbles you might want to get:



- Hair by Govil on marketplace 0L
- Eyes by ID (.Insufferable Dastard.) on marketplace 0L
- Earrings & Necklace by *FG* (*Frangipani Garden*) on marketplace 0L
- Bracelet by Nightfairy's on marketplace 1L
- Ring by December on marketplace 0L
- Dress by Bingo 1L for a limited time only!


Others:
- Leg Tattoo by actchio
- Shoes by JLZ Designs (Not too sure exactly if these were a past gift or a MM board. Was a super while ago though)



I hope you found something you liked

DON-8r the fundraising robot








DON-8r the fundraising robot:
DON-8r (pronounced “donator“) is a small, fund-raising robot that travels through public spaces relying upon coin donations from passers-by to keep it moving. Each donation not only helps to power DON-8r but also goes directly towards supporting a chosen charity.

Inspired by the increasingly negative attitude that many people have towards on-the-street charity workers, DON-8r raises money through encouraging playful and empathetic support from strangers and passers-by.

DON-8r has recently been wowing shoppers in Dundee, Scotland raising both money and awareness for Dundee Science Centre.

Designed to be re-branded to suit different charities, DON-8r provides a unique platform for charities to engage with members of the public in a fun and memorable manner.
The only problem is that people carry coins less and less... Via.
