14:59 Ingo (tkb158) Hello, Rainy
15:01 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) afk
15:02 Wordsmith Jarvinen Welcome to this week's Caledon Oxbridge Deans' Q&A.

15:04 Wordsmith Jarvinen Phrynne, have anything for this week?
15:04 Phrynne Nothing notable. I'm making seasonal changes with flowers and trees, and we now have a few little bunnies hopping around in the tall grass and on the lawn, thanks to Visven. Other than that, helping out in the plaza.
15:05 Phrynne I am also planning what to do for holiday decorations in various places.
15:05 Ingo (tkb158) blushes and shakes his head
15:05 Phrynne but that is a standard thing.
15:05 Phrynne I will have to dig into my storage and find the skeletons for Halloween.
15:05 Phrynne Beyond that... we'll see.
15:06 Wordsmith Jarvinen Got any spare ones for the NW corner?
15:06 Phrynne Spare skeletons? I could probably come up with one. Or maybe a drowned pirate's skeleton, if I can find one.
15:06 Phrynne but that's all from me for now
15:07 Wordsmith Jarvinen Thanks.
15:07 Wordsmith Jarvinen Wonders if Ingo was thinking of the bunnies in the grass.
15:07 Wordsmith Jarvinen Andrea?
15:07 Ingo (tkb158) I didn't do it
15:08 RainyDayRecess :D
15:08 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) The Christmas in August fundraiser build is basically done. I need to setup a dj for the hours between 7 and 9. and I have a bunch of give away items for Santa's bag and a few things to randomly give away.
15:09 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) At this point I'm running behind. the advertisements need to go out.
15:09 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) If you want to participate or do something in conjunction with the fund raiser to raise money. Let me know as time is getting short.
15:11 Wordsmith Jarvinen First time gets short and then time is up.
15:11 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) other than that not much. DJ Piper Steampunk has agreed to do Caledonian nights for awhile. So we will be doing Steam punk related music for a bit. He has a great inventory of music so it should not get boring
15:12 Wordsmith Jarvinen Great.
15:12 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Caledonian nights is open for new people to do things on the parcels. A lot of the Village is under that ownership. So if you have a club, group, etc, that needs a meeting place. Please let me know.

15:13 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) All I'll ask for is a donation collector.
15:13 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) It doesn't have to pick up anything

15:16 Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) Gronk Seriman gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway.
15:17 RainyDayRecess Thank you Gronk ;)
15:17 Wordsmith Jarvinen It all helps keep us here (not the deans, we are free, puns and all)
15:18 Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) RainyDayRecess gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway.
15:18 Kara2016 <..backs away from the coin..
15:18 Wordsmith Jarvinen The main item for this week, is a new class scheduled for tonight at 7pm.
15:19 Gronk Seriman Ooo!
15:19 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Splendid
15:19 Phrynne frowns at the two-week class schedule that shows a cancellation.
15:19 Wordsmith Jarvinen It's a gamified lesson on camera control done in collaboration with MrK Kas (Brant) of Honk Kong University.
15:20 Wordsmith Jarvinen So, it starts at Oxbridge for a brief intro and then goes to a HKU Education sim, also G-rated.
15:22 Wordsmith Jarvinen Apart from that, I've done some more on a new mesh class, and at least a preliminary version of an Oxbridge vase for the advent calendar.
15:23 Wordsmith Jarvinen With that, open for general questions, comments, and announcements.
15:23 Gronk Seriman Will that be a "vase" or a "vahzz"?
15:23 Wordsmith Jarvinen Oh, I note that Andrea still has her Black Moon Marauder tag on from last night's going away party for Caledon Llyr, which is transitioning to the land of mists and legend.
15:23 RainyDayRecess :D
15:24 RainyDayRecess ;(
15:24 Wordsmith Jarvinen The sim itself will still be there and transition to new ownership, name, appearance, usages, ...
15:24 Gronk Seriman That is so sad to hear.
15:25 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Thursday Writers' Meeting was mentioned, still 11:00 AM SLT. Althought Aetherchrononauts calendar seem to show strange times for that.
15:26 Wordsmith Jarvinen Once upon a time, Llyr touched corners with Numantia one the west side of Caledon, so I like to think of Numantia welcoming Llyr back as a neighbor in the land of mists.
15:27 RainyDayRecess In a sense, they will be 'together' now
15:27 Wordsmith Jarvinen Phrynne, do you know who can edit the Aether Chrononaut's calendar?
15:28 Phrynne I am not sure.
15:28 Phrynne I thought it was Otenth, but I don't know.
15:28 Phrynne Otenth HakonPaderborn
15:29 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Beth did not see any strange times. I don't know what others see
15:29 Wordsmith Jarvinen I'll take a look also.
15:30 Wordsmith Jarvinen Other items?
15:31 Wordsmith Jarvinen Oh, Star asked me not to give up on her for inventory class, so she is still interested in getting that going, just delayed.
15:32 Ingo (tkb158) smiles
15:32 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Splendid
15:33 Gronk Seriman We have seen a lot of horse traffic in the Plaza, lately. And the koi pond seems to be a popular watering spot. I hope it is fed by fresh spring water. It looks nice and clean.
15:33 Wordsmith Jarvinen I'm planning on blogging a few articles on scripting, starting at basic definitions.
15:34 RainyDayRecess Nice ;)
15:34 Wordsmith Jarvinen Why yes, Oxbridge sits upon an artesian spring.
15:34 Phrynne I added the tall grass for the horses, as well as more apples. And a picnic blanket elsewhere in the apple orchard for anyone else.
15:34 Gronk Seriman Great!
15:34 Phrynne Or for the horses also if they fit on it.
15:35 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Number of equine avatars seems to have increased in Oxbridge recently....
15:35 Phrynne You'd be surprised how hard it is to find a G-rated picnic blanket these days
15:35 Ingo (tkb158) chuckles and shakes his head
15:35 Gronk Seriman heehee!
15:36 Kara2016 Smiles brightly.
15:36 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Hee-haw
15:37 Wordsmith Jarvinen Anything else?
15:37 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) suggestions of items to be
15:37 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) sold inthe store would be appreciated.
