The Magellan Community is Growing!
Let's all give a warm, Magellan welcome to Kent Messmer and his partner, Rowan Aurbierre, who have purchased Mystic and Mystic Seaport in northeastern Magellan!
Kent is an avid and experienced sailor and race director in Second Life, residing in Sailor's Cove. He has also been known to give a sailing lesson now and then, and is an experienced estate manager. It sounds like the Magellan community will have great fun tapping into Ken's experience in organizing sailing events, regattas and cruises! Partner Rowan notes she is a sailing beginner, but an enthusiastic sailor and crew member. She too is an experienced estate manager, and loves to plan and organize social events. In Second Life, Rowan plays a role in organizing Sailor's Cove's 3-day concert series for Sail For Life, a Relay for Life event that has been held for the last three years.
Kent and Rowan are busy working on their sims (see above), and are looking forward to being active members in the Magellan Sea community and to help organize InWorldz and Magellan events!
Justin Meyer has moved two sims to the southern part of Magellan. DanCoDi is named for Justin's three children and is a work in progress. Currently it features waterfalls, three homes, numerous boats, docks, and a lighthouse. A store is planned for the future. Justin's daughter Cindy Meyer is a builder and built the lighthouse as well as Justin's photostudio, located on a sky platform in a magnificent three story build.
Naporia is a lovely scenic, with docking areas and land to enjoy. Justin is also a DJ, and often performs at FogHorn over on Scrimshaw. We look forward to Justin's performing in some upcoming Magellan events too! Justin's sims are not just fascinating above the waterline. He has been busy designing environments below the surface too!
Magellan has more new residents to be introduced, so watch for more postings very soon!

Peek-a-Boo with PhysX
It is almost here! What? PHYSX! The discussions on the forum (http://inworldz.com/forums) are scintillating! Yes, PhysX Phase I is already up on many sims, still being crowd tested for a grid-wide rollout! Then, more rollouts should follow in quick succession.... especially if no major problems are found with Phase I. It's all very exciting!
There are rumors of an improved mesh by Spring Solstice! For insights on what THAT means, check out the InWorldz site at http://inworldz.com/techblog. Check out Balpien's guest post on Vehicles and Physical Objects in PhysX, and some Forum discussions too. From all we are hearing, these enhancements are very much worth the wait!
For us in Magellan, THAT means sailing is just around the corner! WE NEED SAILORS! There are wonderful sims available in Magellan....for sale (IM Anna Loom for available Magellan sites) AND for rent or lease! Check the LM Board at IDI. Visit the Magellan Welcome Center at Alinja and pop around the sims on the map. There's a growing base of scenic sims too! Perfect for fun boating and sailing! Many with pleasant picnic areas and scenic overlooks!
Future posts will explore some of the Marinas in Magellan (moor your boat!) and some of the airports for your private plane. If you are a sailor, or a boat builder..... maybe with experience in handling sailing events and regattas, DO volunteer your expertise to Anna Loom!
Meanwhile, come, explore Magellan! Put down some roots and get to know the area! There are places for us Landlubbers, and wonderful environments for more fanciful denizens, both above and below the sea!
Come to MAGELLAN!

Dive into the Deep Blue Saturday July 7
Looking for the latest under-sea fashions? Searching for inspiration for new Inworldz venues?
Come to Poseidon (43,124,2) on Saturday, July 7 at 2 P.M. IWT!
TIGGS Beaumont has teamed up with "ALLURE" of InWorldz to bring you a serene and unique fashion show! The designers featured include
- Lady Lyra by Lyrana Courtois,
- Haute Couture by Brelle Dufeaux,
- Designs by Shalenda, by Shalenda Littlebird,
- ULTRAJE Fashion by Pamela Easton.
InWorldz has d-e-e-p blue seas, ample room for colonies of merfolk and other sea denizens. With the advent of scenic sims - now totalling over 150 (not all of which are scenic water sims) - there is a network of adventures for intrepid mer to explore!
Who knows, perhaps there will be new fashion innovations guaranteed to transfix pirates and sailors, causing them to lose their minds and dive to join their visions of voluptuous mermaids!
Dive into the Deep Blue on Saturday with TIGGS and Allure! In the Magellans THIS Saturday! Stay tuned!

One Can Almost Always Find Music at Poseidon
IF you're ever looking for something to do in InWorldz, it would be worth keeping Poseidon in mind. This is TIGGS Beaumont's sim, and she has wonderful musical events practically every day! (she truly doesn't miss many days, and often has multiple performances on the same day!)
Top talent visit her place, performers such as Strummer Vultee, CelticMaidenWarrior, LXIX, SCOFI, GANJO, Blueron Clyburn, Russell Eponym..... and more wonderful live talent!
The scenery is lovely too! Great for dancing, visiting, or just listening!
So, check the IWz Events calendar on the login page, or community on the InWorldz website, and mosey on down to the SIRENS showplace at the Poseidon sim, located right on the Iz Straits in the Magellan area.....gateway to the South Magellan and beyond!

The Gypsies are Coming! The Gypsies are Coming!
Great Events at Equinox 2: The Gypsies are coming!
1. Great events! Dancing with Astorial Luminos on Friday at 1 PM IWT, gathering to view Ziva and Rowland's wedding at 3 IWT (in the Lodge), Storytelling with the wonderful Lani spinning folk stories of love afterwards.
2. Fishing and vegetable gathering to exchange for a meal as an introduction to the LEWT trading system (fully compatible with the Genesis system). Here is a great way to see what it's about and how it works. More items to find and simple opportunities to trade (like really cool Gypsy outfits) will be added during the weekend. Go to Special Magic's booth and pick up your FREE LEWT gathering bag. There's a notecard on how things work. And a fishing station just a bit away at the nearby pond.

4. Rumors abound of a ship wreck off the coasts..... depending on the tides there may be some interesting flotsam and jetsam coming ashore...... sometime.
5. More activities during the weekend..... including a Gypsy adventure at Pasithea at 1 PM on Saturday, with more dancing later on Equinox 2
6. Dancing and story telling on Sunday, with more items in the LEWT hunt, and maybe some other fun events!
Anything that can be streamed from the Conference at Las Vegas will be streamed at the Equinox Lodge on Equinox 2.
