Also One Billion Rising in SL in associated with 2 Lei presents Safe Night Phase 2 in LEA1.  This installation is for the United Nations International Day for the Elimination of Violence against women, with 6 new art installations.

For all you music fans out there Whispering Sands Live Promotions is holding a raffle and with the 250L purchase of a WSLP t-shirt you are entered for a chance to win a fee show some time in January with the WSLP performer of your choice.  The shirts are great too, and you can enter as many times as you like.

The Thanksgiving parade over in Las Vegas at The Rio ran through Sunday but a Christmas version will begin Dec 5th. I had a blast playing on the parade that runs24/7 with almost 100 interactive floats you can ride on and be animated and some even give cool props and costumes.  (See prior recent post"

There are also some weekly fun events you might enjoy such as Sunday evening speed dating, or Tuesday evening comedy hour at Lauren's place followed by live music.

Here as a fun piece of news for old timers in SL who might remember Midnight Reflections that was a favorite romantic dance and explore areas, well there is a new Midnight Reflections and it's a similar design with the surround, water falls, nature and walkways with dance areas.

And there are a bunch of  cool holiday events, sims, and things going on so remember to check SL events as well as the SL Destination guide.

(Ok, highly edited version done.  I'll add some links tomorrow maybe but I'm tired right now)
