VWER Auditorium Build

This week the BG Second Life team had an emergency build project that fell to me to finish. The Virtual Worlds Educators Roundtable (VWER) is a group of 80-100 educators and others who meet in Second Life. This group is moving to BGSU’s virtual campus, and a space is currently being constructed for their meetings and round table discussions. The first phase of this construction was to construct an auditorium for the group presentations. This task fell to me the night before a meeting with a VWER representative, so it had to be completed pretty quickly. We decided to use the space previously used to model faculty offices for the VWER build.

 

When I took over the build, there was a floor and some chairs placed, with a presentation screen at the front of the space.

The first step in this build was to create rows of seats for guests. I used the seats supplied and created rows that radiated from the center. The goal was to have enough seating for 80-100 guests.

After the first two sections of seats were built, I turned my attention to the open spaces around the perimeter of the space. This space had been left open and terraformed to make the space descend into the floor, but now I needed a way to connect the various walkways and asiles with the main seating. To address this issue, I began by constructing some stairs on either side of the media viewer.

Once the stairs were completed and joined to the floor, I put in a side asile on the side of the main seating area.

After the asile was built, I moved the wall on the other side of the space inwards. I did this for two reasons: First, I wanted to make the seating space more symmetrical and avoid a large open space on the other side. Second, I wanted to move the wall to expand the hallway on the other side. We’re still not sure exactly what this space will be used for, but it was a bit narrow to begin with and is now much more open and usable.

With the wall moved, I now had a good idea of how the space in the main seating area could be built. First, I made another side asile to match the one on the other side.

The first place that needed attention was where the side asiles connected the front stairs and the radial asiles. I needed a way to fill in this space and add some architectural elements to the space. I started by placing some triangular prims in the space to fill it in.

On top of these prims, I added tall pillars. These pillars helped to divide the space into a seating and presentation area and the asiles in which avatars could move.

Now that the seating area was clearly defined, I added additional chairs on either side of the radial asiles. The final seating area can hold around 105 guests.

Once the seating area was complete, I decided to work on the walkway on the second level of the space. This walkway goes around the inside of the glass at the front of the VWER space, and can be accessed via ramps by the entrance of the structure. In the future, we may add a second level to this presentation space, so I wanted to make sure that the walkway was integrated with the rest of the architecture. I decided to continue the walkway into the side hallway and added some stairs so that it would be accessible from either side of the seating area.

Once the walkway and stairs were completed, the VWER presentation space was essentially complete.

In the next week I’ll be working on the other half of the VWER space, which is located at the other end of the building. This will have stadium seating and will house the actual “round table” used for discussions.

    Besides, the word terrorism has lost all meaning anyways.
    Manley said the suspect vehicle stopped in a ditch on the side
    of the road. As a SWAT team approached the vehicle, the suspect detonated a device,
    Manley said. The downside with almost any of those options is that the
    base could get to be a problem. Large, stiff bases can irritate during use,
    and the loop bases (such as on the Icicles plug) can make it hard to sit down. Haven tried

    fleshlight Sometimes its because he wants to do it when my parents
    are near by or other people and that adds another layer on to the problem.

    I don’t like touching in general but not theres the whole ‘people are
    watching’ thing. But a couple should be able to cuddle and hug and ya know
    normal stuff in publicish areas too (not making out just hugging).
    To improve body image, couples should share a healthy lifestyle.
    As importantly, they should continue to compliment each other’s

    male sex toys Lee, Mr. Martin, Mr. Villa or Mr. I too, have never had sex with anyone.
    For me, when I do I want it to be with someone who I love, so
    it would be a celebration of that. Basically Mary said it all: I want to have sex with someone who I can hold in my arms.

    This bullet pack has a lot of power, which is nice. The controls are on the battery back and consist of two
    buttons. There is a smaller power button, and a button labeled ‘7X’ that controls the vibration patterns.

    In the past, he shied from it. “I never wanted to be one of those pretentious people who get rich and suddenly they’re spending all their money in galleries, pretending they have taste,” he says.

    It would have been nice if Coquette had included an elastic waist because these
    do not stay in place very well. We do not suggest wearing these under a skirt, unless
    you want to find these around your ankles at a not wanted time!!
    Worn under pants, these will still slide but at least
    you are wearing the pants to hold up these things!. Brilinta is admittedly more
    effective than Plavix by all of 2 percentage points.
    In a yearlong trial of 18,600 patients, 10 percent died from vascular causes, heart
    attack or stroke on Brilinta, while about 12 percent did
    on Plavix. Should the doctor prescribe the best possible medicine, assuming that the man has private health insurance
    that will pay the bulk of the costs? Or should
    she try to conserve health care costs by prescribing the cheaper medicine that is nearly as good?
    And consider this: If the cost to you was the same you have maxed out
    your co pay and will end up with the same out of pocket expenditure would you agree to take the slightly inferior drug to benefit
    the system as a whole? You’ve just had a heart attack, for God’s sake.

    fleshlight So even in the person with a UTI,
    they are likely introducing a bacteria into the rectum that
    is already present (in millions of bacteria per gram of feces).

    I wouldn be too worried about obtaining a bacterial infection by this type of play.

    I would be worried about catching viruses (AIDS and Herpes to name two) if the two people were having unprotected sex (assuming
    that the urination took place after anal penetration).
    This toy is a lot of fun. I don’t normally use
    it alone, but my wife and I use it sometimes as a fun addition to foreplay or
    when we don’t have the energy for sex. It’s more stimulating for me than a handjob and
    easier for her because she doesn’t have to squeeze so hard and move around as much.

    This bullet is pretty light weight and easy to apply vibrations

    The cup does have underwire, but doesn’t really give any push up.

    I think it really depends on who you’re talking to.

    It might help you, old school as it probably sounds,
    to sit open legged in front of a mirror now and then, perhaps when you’re masturbating
    even. Get a look at yourself, see what your partner is
    seeing, and try and accept that there’s nothing icky or to be ashamed of when it comes to your body or your genitals.
    You sound like someone who could use a copy of Betty Dodson’s classic,
    “Sex for One.” It’s a fantastic women’s guide in terms of masturbation, and
    she also deals with distorted body image and genital shame issues, as well.

    Designed with solo male use in mind, the fleshlight can be a bit
    awkward to maneuver during couples play, particularly if
    one or both partners have small hands. For this reason it is more suited
    for solo play, but really can be used in any sitution with a little practice.
